“Honestly can't rate Michaela highly enough, from the first message right through to the house / dog sitting she was amazing! Allegra took to Michaela immediately and they say animals are the best judge of character. The house was spotless when we returned and Michaela went way above and beyond simply caring for allegra whilst we were on holiday. We got regular updated and pictures and came back to a pampered, settled and happy pup, truly can't thank her enough and will absolutely be booking again!”

“Cannot recommend Anna enough. This was the first time I've ever had to leave my dogs with someone who wasn't family so naturally I was a bit anxious. From the initial meet and greet it was clear how caring Anna was going to be, she came armed with suitable questions to ensure she was going to give my dogs the VIP treatment. The updates whilst I was away were perfect and lots of gorgeous pictures of my babies! Will defo be thinking of Anna first if I need to leave them again.”

“We had Laura house sit for our 2 dogs and cat, this is the second time we have booked Laura, she looked after our animals and house like her own! Communicated everyday how they were getting on, pictures included. Can’t thank Laura enough :), I know the animals are in good hands with her”

“Thank you Sophia for looking after Dexter at our home for 5 days. Dexter loved you very much. We would highly recommend you. lots of pics and updates. Definitely use you again. ?”

“I highly recommend Bianca. She confirmed a time for arrival two days before the stay. Throughout the afternoon stay she sent regular updates/photos which was appreciated. When I arrived home Bianca gave an update on Hero. It was nice to be able to go out for a family occasion and be relaxed knowing Hero was being cared for. Thank you so much Bianca.”

“We booked Gill for a house sitting for our 2 babies while we had a holiday away from them to recharge. Gill updated us every single day with photos of our babies. It was really reassuring and we could enjoy our holiday. Gill even cleaned our house, it was a big relief we didn't have to do it on arrival. Highly recommend her and definitely will use her again. Thanks 👍🙏”

About: Having had dogs all my life I am most content snuggled up on the couch with my fur baby! I used to work away a lot and know how hard it can be to find a stable caring environment to leave your fur baby with. I offer a home from home environment for your beloved pet and guarantee lots of walks and cuddles! My own dog Tilly loves company and would be a great companion during your fur baby’s stay! I provide all the home comforts to ensure your pet doesn’t get too home sick!! I have been looking after dogs all my life and love nothing better than walking down the transpennine way which is situated at the bottom of my road. I offer over night boarding for as short or as long as is needed Monday to Sunday.

I adore all animals and love playing with my cats. They all have individual personalities, that make them unique. I'm currently unemployed but sometimes go out in the days I'll be able to fit all the animals into my schedule day and night so I'll always be there to care for them I'll always ask for steps if you have any requirements while I'm there as I would want your pet to keep there routine that they already have and I'll stick to there schedule that they may follow day to day.

“Ellie came round and sat with Mags at short notice, she was immediately calm with her. She was very respectful of the house and when times kept changing she was very accommodating. Would highly recommend her.”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Olly. This was a last-minute booking, and we really appreciated how accommodating and helpful you were. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Olly was in good hands. Olly seemed happy and well looked after when we got back. We’ll definitely be using Karys again and would happily recommend her to others. Once again thank you so much!”


About: I'm Nathan, 37 and from Lowton. I really do love all animals, but specialise in cats. I had dogs growing up but since being an adult have always had cats in my home. My day job in finance allows me to work from home and gives flexibility to spend time with my own cats, and look after other peoples furbabies too. I own two beautiful indoor Ragdolls - brother and sister - Toby and Luna who are 7. Toby has a sensitive stomach and requires weekly medication, and Luna has a beautiful (but long) coat which requires daily grooming to keep her looking stunning. I currently work from home, so can house sit and work from your house of needed. My partner can look after our 2 cats if I am pet-sitting. I have lots of experience in building rapport with dogs and cats. I tailor my approach to their personality and am adaptable to whatever environment I am in.
“I have used Marta twice now to house sit my 3 cats, the first time was for 10 days and the second this past weekend. If I was to think the first time was a fluke, she also nailed the second stay. 2 of my cats are very scaredy and tend to stay away from the house when we’re away. Well they absolutely love Marta and I have come home to lovely cuddles from them each time as they are so relaxed in Martas care. I would go as far as to say that she may be a cat whisperer. ☺️ My other cat is very needy and she too is in great spirits. I feel so at ease when Marta is with them as I get lovely photo updates and it’s clear she really bonds with the cats. The house is also taken good care of in our absence. Marta is very special, please don’t hesitate if you are looking for a trustworthy, kind, caring and conscientious person to take care of your pets. ?”


About: Hi, I'm Roxanna! 🐾 I've been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and they've always been a huge part of my life. Over the years I've looked after dogs of all ages, breeds and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience, care and attention. For your peace of mind, I am *DBS checked* and *Canine First Aid trained*, so your dog's safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I specialise in solo dog walks, meaning your dog receives my full attention on every walk without the distractions or stress of group walks. This allows me to tailor each walk to your dog's individual needs, pace and personality, ensuring they have a safe, enjoyable and enriching experience. I offer a reliable, caring and personalised service to help local families enjoy date nights, holidays or simply have peace of mind when work commitments mean they're away for longer than usual. Services I offer: 🐕 Solo Dog Walking 🏡 Dog Sitting (maximum one overnight stay) 🏠 Daily Home Check-ins Whether your dog is a playful puppy learning the ropes, an active adult, or an elderly companion needing a slower pace and extra care, I'll treat them as if they were my own. I take the time to build trust with every dog and always provide plenty of love, attention and care. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe and in caring hands. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend! I’m currently working part time as an assistant in a primary school. I fit my appointments in around my commitments. I currently dog sit one Saturday evening every month and carry out dog walking appointments during the day in the week. I take care of your dogs in your home. I offer an initial meet and greet appointment where I get to know you, your pup and your home. This is a great opportunity for you to give me details on your pups routine, what they do and don’t like, toilet and feeding information etc. I’m only a text or phone call away if you need to communicate and new information.
“We had the absolute pleasure of having Amber stay in our home to look after our two dogs while we were away. From the very start, she was kind, reliable, and professional, and we felt completely at ease leaving our dogs (and our home) in her care. Amber went above and beyond – keeping us updated, giving our dogs so much love and attention, and making sure everything at home ran smoothly while we were gone. I could tell straight away that our dogs adored her, and it gave us such peace of mind to know they were so well cared for. Coming home, our dogs were happy and relaxed, and the house was spotless – it was like we’d never been away! We would not hesitate to recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dedicated sitter. We feel so lucky to have found her and will definitely be booking her again! ☺️ Thank you Amber! 😁🐾♥️”

“We couldn't have asked for a better house-sitter than Jordan. When he came to meet us and our dog, he was so polite and friendly, and clearly wanted to know all about her needs and routines. He provided lots of photos and updates throughout the time we were away. We got home to a very happy dog and a very clean and tidy house. He was extremely respectful of our home and attentive to our pet. We'd definitely ask Jordan to come and stay again! Highly recommend.”


About: I’ve taken care of my neighbours cats since I was around 12. I also have a 12 year old Cavalier called Hughie who is my best friend. My whole life has been surrounded by animals and I love meeting new friends x I currently work part-time at Screwfix and am looking to expanding my options in my gap year. I am very flexible and am able to visit frequently. I have a fenced garden for my dog who has always been prone to escaping with bad recall. I am more than prepared to keep all pets where they should be, it’s like a 6th sense for me.
“First time meeting Tilly, I knew my new dog Nina was in great hands straight away! I didnt have any concerns and would 100% recommend Tilly to care for your pet. I came home to a settled doggy who had a lovely day.”


“I felt so comfortable leaving Kal with Naomi, she’s responsible and caring and looked after him amazingly. She asks lots of questions so if obvious she takes the responsibility very seriously. She sent lots of pics so I could relax knowing he was happy and being well cared for. Will book her again soon.”

Sophia was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She stayed in our home for a couple of days to look after our dog, Albus, while we were away getting married, and knowing he was in such good hands meant we could completely relax and enjoy our wedding without worrying. When we came home, Albus was so happy and content, he actually spent time looking around the house for Sophia after she'd left! It was clear he'd been incredibly well cared for and had formed a lovely bond with her. On top of that, the house was spotless. In fact, it somehow looked even cleaner than when we left it. Sophia treated our home with genuine care and respect, and the whole experience was completely hassle free. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sophia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring and conscientious pet sitter. We'll definitely be booking her again, and we're already hoping she's available for a couple of weddings we have planned next year. Thank you again, Sophia, you were amazing!

Gillian and Ronnie have been absolutely brilliant! I was very nervous as I’ve never left Lottie with anyone other than friends and family before, but they gave me full confidence from the first meeting - truly lovely people. The updates and pictures throughout her day were lovely. It was so comforting to know she was being well looked after in her own home. I would have no hesitation in having them take care of Lottie and my home again 💕 thank you so much!

I highly recommend Bianca. She confirmed a time for arrival two days before the stay. Throughout the afternoon stay she sent regular updates/photos which was appreciated. When I arrived home Bianca gave an update on Hero. It was nice to be able to go out for a family occasion and be relaxed knowing Hero was being cared for. Thank you so much Bianca.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Marta. She stayed at our home and looked after our baby girl, Tigerlilley, with an incredible level of love, care, and attention. From the very start, it was clear how thoughtful, capable, and genuinely caring she is. Marta sent us daily updates, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Knowing that Tigerlilley was not only safe, but being cared for by such a competent and compassionate professional, made all the difference. She treated Tigerlilley as if she were her own, and that meant the world to us. It was absolutely brilliant to be able to relax, knowing our home and our baby girl were in such good hands. We are so grateful to Marta and wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for their little one. Thank you so much, Marta 💛

Candice did an amazing job looking after our dog, Murphy, for two nights while we were getting married! It was our first time using Rover, and after reading all the great reviews, I knew he’d be in the right hands. Candice sent regular updates and photos of Murphy, which really helped put our minds at ease. Our home was left exactly as we’d left it too! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Candice 🫶🏻
