“Clare is absolutely amazing! Whilst taking care of our 3 active dogs, who all have individual care routines, Clare did everything perfectly and fitted in a lot of training for each of them which she tailored to their needs. Ontop of that we came back to a house that was spotless! Highly recommended.”
“This is the third/fourth time Elisha has stayed and looked after our dogs. Our dogs love Elisha. She takes them on multiple walks and sends us regular pupdates whilst we're away. Elisha took care of our home and left everything nice. I definitely recommend her!”
“Mariia was amazing with my dogs. Kenai is a nervous soul but the two of them got on very well and cuddled up. Diego is still a puppy and very much in his naughty phase, she kept a close eye on him to ensure he wasn’t getting into anything he shouldn’t and played and entertained him to get rid of some of that puppy energy. She was fab and will definitely be using her again ❤️🐾”

About: I have loved animals all my life and have over 20 years of experience caring for pets. I have looked after dogs, cats and small animals for friends, family and neighbours. I understand that pets are part of the family and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I am reliable, calm and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I run my own local service business, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to fit pet visits and dog walks around my day. I am usually available mornings, afternoons and evenings for pet visits, feeding, playtime and walks. I understand how important routine is for pets, so I always try to keep their normal schedule while their owners are away. I always care for pets in a calm, gentle and responsible way. When visiting a pet in their home, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure the pet feels comfortable and safe in their own environment. I make sure food, water and litter trays are clean, and I spend time giving pets attention and play so they don’t feel lonely. I also treat every home with great respect and keep everything tidy and secure.
“Kylie did a great job babysitting Pickles! He needs meds three times per day plus eyedrops, so it can be a handful. She is so great with him. Thank you so much, Kylie! Pickles loves you! :)”
“Amazing service from Katherine from start to finish, from initial visit, second pre visit and throughout the stay. Katherine kept us informed with daily updates and pictures about our dogs, which made us feel relaxed knowing our little ones were in such good caring hands. She made the whole process very easy and was extremely professional and polite throughout. We couldn't recommend Katherine any higher and we would definitely be happy to use her services again in the future. Thank you Katherine 😊”
“We had a great experience with Massimo and would highly recommend him. He took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made sure our dog felt comfortable and happy whilst we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring and reliable hands. Thank you again for looking after our dog so well.”
“Kelly looked after Rooster very well and even gave him a little photoshoot. She left my place clean and tidy ready for my return. Rooster is very attached to me and she did an amazing job to reassure him while I was away. I thoroughly recommend her to look after your pets.”
About: I have worked with animals for almost half of my life and its all I've ever wanted to do. I have a BSc degree in Zoo Biology and have an in depth knowledge of animal care and welfare. During my university studies I worked part-time at a kennel/cattery and absolutely loved looking after different breeds from daschunds through to Irish wolf hounds. I have experience caring for a wide range of species including exotics. I rehome rodents and in the past I have taken in many rats, gerbils and a pygmy hedgehog. I am currently rodent mum to 2 amazing degu boys named Dennis & Dodger, they have such personality and im lucky to have them in my life. As a pet sitter I am devoted to giving lots of love and attention to your pet and making sure they are happy and healthy while you are away. Maintaining a high level of welfare and regular updates so you can feel comfortable and relaxed. I have now taken up walking and sitting full time starting my own business. I am fully insured outside of this app and can be available any days/time I do not have prior commitments I am only available for house sits and cannot sit your pets in my own home due to my tenancy and the safety of my own pets! I can provide drop in visits or extended house stay while you are away.
“Albie was instantly drawn to Jodie! She is clearly a natural with dogs. Communication was great throughout the day. We were able to switch off knowing that Albie was well looked after. Would definitely recommend and use Jodie again. Thank you again, Jodie!”
“Emma was excellent looking after our two dogs, a saluki and whippet. Emma kept our house super clean and tidy. Very reliable and trustworthy. Emma was excellent in communicating with us during the process, especially when we were away by sending lots of photos and videos of the dogs being walked. We will definitely use Emma again.”
About: I love dogs and had a shih tzu named Pebbles for 13 years. I also was a horse owner for many years so I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I work from home now and miss having a dog to shower with love and attention. My friends regularly ask me to dogsit for them when they are away. My schedule is flexible and I work on different time zones, so I have time during the day to accommodate for the specific needs of your dog. I have a small fenced area outside they can go out to during the day. I live and equal distance to Primrose Hill & Hampstead Heath, so lots of space to take them for long walks. I work from home and have lots of flexibility to take them out during the day. I am very adaptable to the needs of every dog I take care of. I have a nice lower ground floor flat with a walled off terrace outside. I usually keep the door open for them during the day to wander in and out as they please. Dogs are allowed to sleep in bed with me, except if the owner prefers otherwise if they are crate trained, etc.

Faye looked after my silver Labrador, Coco and was absolutley excellent. It was our first time leaving our dog for the day and with short notice, Faye had offered to help us. Faye constantly updated us with photos and messages and made us feel extremely comfortable leaving our puppy with her. Could not recommend Faye enough!
Our first ever experience with a sitter and we couldn't be happier. Hannah is clearly very experienced, has the dogs care and comfort at the forefront of her mind, asked all the right questions prior to meeting our dog and gave us reassurance/consistent updates throughout the day which we really appreciated. Some lovely pictures too! Would 100% book again ☺️
Elisha is incredible! Tiggy absolutely loves her and she was the best company for him while we were away. Our boy can be very nervous out on walks and it was so good to know he was in safe hands. Will absolutely be using Elisha again, and would highly recommend!! Thank you 💖✨
Mia is fantastic, I would happily recommend her to others. Our two dogs were instantly comfortable with her at the meet and greet, which is huge for us as one of our pups is generally very wary of new people. Mia stayed overnight and gave us regular updates and photos. Thanks Mia!
Nikeisha provided excellent care, in my home, for my elderly dog. She took time to meet in advance, fully understood my dog's requirements and sent me lovely updates and photos throughout her stay. I was able to enjoy my break knowing that she was safe and caring hands. I wouldn't hesitate to book Nikeisha again! Thank you
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Maria looked after our dog so wonderfully over the 5 days—giving them plenty of love, attention, and care, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and in very capable hands. On top of that, we came home to a house that was just as tidy and well cared for as we left it, which was such a lovely touch. Reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely caring, we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much! ⭐️
Clare looked after Russell and my home so incredibly well, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for better care. From the moment we met her, I felt completely at ease — she’s kind, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. Russell was so happy and relaxed when I came home, which says everything. Clare kept me updated while I was away, which gave me real peace of mind, and she treated my home with so much respect and care. It’s such a relief knowing I can go away and trust that both Russell and my house are in such safe hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Clare to anyone looking for a wonderful, trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you again, Clare — you’re amazing! 🐾
Katherine was fantastic! She looked after our cat Maize (and our house) for a week while we were away. She sent regular pictures and kept us all up to date. Our cat seemed to love her company and Katherine gave her all the attention she wanted! Will be booking her again in the future!
Hannah recently had her first stay at mine looking after my little lady, Millie. Millie was so well looked after and Hannah kept me up to date on how things were going and sent lots of pictures which I loved. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again, thank you Hannah!
I was very fortunate to be able to book Sammy to dog sit in my home whilst I was away for a week. From the start Sammy put me at ease, seeking a comprehensive understanding of my dogs needs as well as promptly coming to meet us. She did an amazing job looking after my greyhound and provided me with plenty of updates whilst I was away, even going so far as to making my dog's birthday special for her! I would recommend Sammy to anyone and would hope to book her again for any future holidays.
Emma was excellent looking after our two dogs, a saluki and whippet. Emma kept our house super clean and tidy. Very reliable and trustworthy. Emma was excellent in communicating with us during the process, especially when we were away by sending lots of photos and videos of the dogs being walked. We will definitely use Emma again.
