Pet Sitting Beetley

About: A Lifetime of Dog Love We both grew up in homes where dogs were part of the family. From high-energy puppies to gentle seniors, we’ve handled it all. This lifelong experience means we’re comfortable with different temperaments and truly understand "dog language." Staffie-Lab Specialists Our own 12-year-old Staffie/Lab cross has been with us since she was a puppy. Raising her into her golden years has given us deep experience in senior care, from administering medications to providing the extra patience and comfort older dogs need. The Best of Both Worlds: Home Comfort & Forest Adventures Your dog will have 24/7 companionship with us. While one of us provides a calm, "nesting" environment at home during maternity leave, the other works outdoors in beautiful forestry areas. What this means for your pup: Quiet, Safe Exploration: Plenty of space to run and sniff in peaceful, off-the-beaten-path woods. Tailored Days: If your dog prefers a cozy nap on the sofa, they can stay home. If they love an adventure, they can join the "forestry crew" for a day of fresh air. Never Alone: Between the two of us, your dog is always supervised and loved. A Typical Day with Us Because there are two of us with very different daily schedules, we can tailor your dog’s day to their specific energy level and personality. The Morning Kick-off The day starts around 7:30 AM with breakfast and a quick garden stretch for everyone. We’ll discuss your dog’s energy for the day to decide which "track" they’ll take. Option A: The Forestry Adventure (Active Pups) If your dog loves the outdoors, they’ll hop in the van with me. My workday is spent in quiet, off-the-beaten-path forestry areas. The Perks: Miles of peaceful trails, fresh air, and plenty of "sniffari" opportunities away from noisy traffic or crowded city parks. The Pace: We take plenty of breaks in the shade, with fresh water always on hand. Option B: The Cozy Home Nest (Chill or Senior Pups) If your dog prefers the quiet life (like our 12-year-old girl), they stay home with my partner. The Perks: Constant companionship during maternity leave. Whether it’s lounging on the sofa or pottering around our secure garden, they are never left alone. The Pace: Calm, low-stress, and full of belly rubs. Perfect for seniors or dogs who get overwhelmed by travel. The Evening Wind-down By 5:00 PM, we’re all back together. After dinner, it’s "family time" in the living room. Our senior Staffie-Lab is an expert at relaxing, and your pup will have a cozy spot to join the pack for evening cuddles before bed. Your dog’s safety is our top priority. We provide a fully fenced, secure garden where pups can play and sniff freely. Because we’re a team—with one of us home on maternity and the other in quiet forestry areas—your dog is never left unattended. We use our 12 years of experience with our senior Staffie-Lab to ensure a calm environment, slow introductions, and a routine that keeps every guest happy and out of harm's way.

About: Fully Qualified in pet sitting and dog walking. Full DBS has been completed. I have had previous experience working in a Boarding Kennels. I have had several Dogs myself of many different breeds. I also used to train Greyhounds and Whippets within the Racing environment. I set up the business to continue my love of working with animals. But mainly to provide a service that allows Clients to ensure their pets are well looked after when other commitments call. I know how close to us our pets are so clear communication with my Clients on how their pet is doing would be key. I set up Bark 4 the Lead at the beginning of 2024. This is my full time Job so the pets that are boarded here have my full attention throughout the day and night. I offer dog walking which I complete in the morning for a couple of my Clients. I live in a very quiet area down a service track. The property is fenced in with no other pets in the household. I recommend clients to visit with their pets prior to booking so they feel comfortable and reassured.

“Abby was very good at keeping us updated with her visits sending photos and a short summary of what she had done. We were extremely happy and impressed with her friendly but professional approach. We can certainly recommend her to anyone.”

About: I grew up with various animals and have been a pet owner for 30 years. I’m the go to pet sitter for friends and family. I choose to do pet sitting because I find it incredibly rewarding and love spending my time with animals. I work remotely 90% of the time and can arrange to work 100% remotely from your home if needed. I can give your pet regular cuddles and toilet trips and walk them around my work. My days off are Thursday -Sunday so I will be able to give them extra attention on these days. I will arrange to visit your home beforehand to get to know your pet/s and make sure they and you are happy with me. This also enables me to discuss expectations and security/routine. Due to the nature of my job, I also have an enhanced DBS check.

“I asked Ann to visit and feed Coco for a second time as I knew I could rely on her to take good care of my cat. Thanks Ann, I'm sure Coco would also say thank you if she could!”

About: Hi, I’m Paulina — though the dogs know me as Pawlina 🐾! I run PAWLINA: Home for Pets, a safe, licensed, and insured home-from-home for dogs in Little Fransham. I hold a Breckland Council Animal Welfare Licence (AWL0208) for home boarding and daycare of up to 5 dogs, so you can be sure your pets are cared for to the highest standards. I’ve loved animals since I was a child—my home was always full of pets, and I’ve felt happiest outdoors in nature. I’m calm and gentle, which animals seem to naturally sense. Even the shyest ones warm up to me quickly and often come over for cuddles. I can't walk away when an animal needs help—like the little kitten I rescued and found a loving home for (take a peek at my gallery, but be prepared for a cuteness overload 😍). It makes me very happy to make animals feel safe and loved. What I also love about my pet-sitting work is the chance to meet wonderful people—pet owners who, like me, truly care about animals. From my experience, pet owners are some of the kindest and most caring individuals you can find, and I feel lucky to be around such a kind community. At Pawlina's, your furry family member will be safe, loved, and treated like one of my own. I can’t wait to welcome them and help them feel right at home! 🐾❤️ I work part-time from home — just a couple of hours in the morning and a couple in the afternoon, Monday to Friday. Because my job is home-based, I’m available all week to care for your pets. They’ll never be left for long periods and will always get plenty of time, care, and attention every single day. Together with my partner, I live in a cosy two-bed bungalow with a secure 0.17-acre garden in peaceful Little Fransham. The area is wonderfully quiet, with beautiful walks right on our doorstep — perfect for outdoor adventures with pets. Whether welcoming your furry friend into my spacious, pet-friendly home or caring for them in yours, I prioritise creating a calm and secure environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routines and preferences so they feel completely at ease.

“Elizabeth is so good with my dog, she’s always reply’s to messages promptly, gives lots of updates and photos of her visit and Nala loves going on walks and having home visits with her. Takes the stress away when having to go to work”

“This is the second time we’ve used Alexio to sit our two cats. He was even kind enough to water our grass while we were away during the heat-wave. Thanks again Alexio!”

About: Hi there ! Since my childhood I've had and looked after many animals all shapes and sizes. I consider myself a confident and caring individual who will look after your pet and their needs. I will try my best to be flexible, and am happy to discuss any particular requirements or preferences. I do have a friendly dog aged 2 of my own, so for any stays at my home address I would require a short meet and greet to make sure they get along first. I am currently working from home the majority of the week and do have time on weekends for bigger walks or longer drop in visits. I have a large fenced back garden for your dog to be safe and play in. Additionally to the grass is a rubber pieced section too.

“Beth was brilliant, my 2 collies clearly loved her to bits. She was prompt, sent lots of photos and even ran the hoover round without being asked (the dogs had been on a beach walk and dropped sand everywhere) Will definitely be using her again!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have personally owned four cocker spaniels, giving me hands-on experience with energetic, affectionate breeds. I’m confident with walking, feeding, bathing and providing lots of care and reassurance, and I always treat pets like family. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside my uni studies. I’m organised, flexible, and able to plan my schedule around bookings. I’m available for regular drop-ins, walks, and sitting, and I always make sure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care while owners are away. I always prioritise safety, trust, and routine when caring for pets. I follow owners’ instructions closely, keep environments calm and secure, and ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for in their own home.

About: Dogs have been a big part of my family life for over 50 years. I have looked after many breeds of dogs with various attitudes and needs. From basic training of puppies to advanced training throughout their years. I have plenty of time to look after , play and exercise your doggies. Teach them how to behave in a good manner and help them grow and thrive to their full ability I have 3 lovable, friendly dogs of my own. They are treated like royalty.

About: With over five years of experience in looking after all kinds of animals as well as growing up in a house full of animals I am now available to look after furry friends whilst back home from university. Whilst my experience is mainly in the realms of dogs, cats, horses, hamsters and guinea pigs I have also looked after rabbits, birds and even a tortoise! I have had plenty of work experience through my degree in veterinary practices allowing me to handle medications as needed and keep an eye on any more senior animals as well, with which I aim to give owners some peace of mind as I completely understand how daunting it can feel when a pet has health issues and to trust someone else to monitor these. I currently work an online job for my university student union, which is part time. This means I have plenty of time to check in on furry friends and keep ontop of their daily schedules! Other than that I would ideally be going to the gym however if one of your furry friends needs 24/7 care it goes without saying that it would always be the priority! I will be able to take your dog out and about to local dog parks or for quieter walks through the lovely Norfolk countryside! With a car and full clean driving licence I would be more than happy to take your pets to safe local areas or walk them from your home. Which ever you would prefer and they would be more comfortable with!

About: Me and my partner work from home full time and would love the company of a four-legged friend. I only ever take in one dog at a time, this means your dog gets 100% of my attention, the best spot on the sofa, and a routine that doesn't change just because they aren't at home. I keep my client list small and exclusive to ensure I can be available when you need it most. My home is a calm and quiet space, I have no dogs or kids of my own and live it a very quite estate on the edge of norwich. Whether we’re heading out for a long afternoon walk or just hanging out while I’m at my desk, your dog will be treated exactly like my own. They’ll have the run of the house and plenty of belly rubs. I have a completely fenced garden which they have access to as much as needed. I have a very cosy office with a sofa they have exclusive use of.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, having grown up surrounded by pets. I’m confident handling different breeds, temperaments, and needs. I’ve regularly cared for pets within my local community, including feeding, walking, administering medication, and providing companionship. I’ve also worked part-time as a dog walker, further building my confidence with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. My experience has made me patient, attentive, and highly reliable when it comes to ensuring every animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work from home so I’m always available and flexible to provide any services you may need. I’m happy to work completely around your schedule. I’m not able to look after pets in my own home however I can do house sitting and any other services you may require.

About: I’ve had two cats for four years now and they are house cats , I love spending time with them. I have previously owned a staffy (dog) named daisy who I regularly took out for walks and fed. I myself go on walks daily so I would love to help someone out if their pets need walking :) I think it’s very important for pets to receive some good playtime and loving which I would love to provide for them when the owner is unable to do so. I will walk pets in evenings/weekends depending on the size and activity level of the pet. I am happy to look after cats at my home too and invest in toys for them.
