About: I am patient with dogs, but I will stop them from doing the wrong thing in time. I will use food to train dogs, such as sitting, shaking hands, lying down, etc. I am currently studying, and usually I have a lot of free time on Saturdays and Sundays, but I also have different periods of free time on Mondays and Fridays. My home is a two-room apartment, which is very large. And the apartment I live in is a pet-friendly apartment. Many residents here have their own pets. I believe your pet will have a good time in my home.
“Luna had a great time with Pratik and his family. She was very well looked after and cared for, we had regular photos and videos and I would highly recommend them. It is obvious that Pratik and his wife love dogs and it made us feel so much better and less guilty for leaving her. We will definitely be rebooking again. A huge thank you from the McInnes family!”

“Hannah looked after our Cavapoo for a week whilst we went abroad. She sent daily photos and updates and the communication was clear and thoughtful. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hannah and will definitely ask her to look after Milo again next year.”


About: I have lived with dogs since I was a child, and my family in China has an 18-year-old small dog, so I understand how much love, patience and routine pets need at every stage of life. In the UK, I have also helped look after my friends’ dogs, including Dachshunds, Border Collies and Cocker Spaniels. I have experience with feeding, walking, playing, keeping dogs company and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and I always try to understand each dog’s personality, habits and needs. I will follow the owner’s instructions carefully and keep them updated with messages and photos. I am currently a student, so my schedule is very flexible. I am usually available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can plan around each pet’s routine. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with safe indoor space, and there is a small dog park at the apartment for walks and toilet breaks.
“Lovely, caring, attentive , kind and considerate lady, Tommy was very well cared for and send me updates without me expecting them so it was a lovely touch. I would definitely use this lady again and recommend her to others knowing your pet is in very capable hands. I thank you so much for the way you have taken care of Tommy for me ❤️ ❤️ Susan.”

About: Whether it's teaching puppies the ropes or giving extra love to senior pets, I'm all about making sure each furry friend🐾 feels right at home. Just here to make pet sitting a breeze for you and your pet! With my work-from-home schedule four days a week and one day at the office, pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. During my home days, I'm able to provide constant companionship and care to your pet, ensuring they have regular feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. On the day I go into the office, I make sure to schedule any necessary pet care tasks in the morning and evening to maintain consistency and ensure your pet's needs are met. But mostly I try to schedule around it so your pet gets the at most attention. In my home, your pet will receive the same level of care and attention they would in their own environment. I ensure a safe and comfortable space for them to relax and play. This includes regular feeding according to their schedule, access to fresh water at all times, and opportunities for indoor and outdoor activities. I'm committed to maintaining a clean environment, so your pet will enjoy a tidy space. Most importantly, I provide plenty of love, cuddles, and interaction to make your pet feel right at home during their stay with me.

“Laura was perfect for our dog pickles. We arranged a little meetup beforehand to talk about everything. We immediately trusted Laura. She listened to our care instructions and we didn’t worry about Pickles once. Pickles seemed super happy from start to finish. We got plenty of updates and photographs. Will definitely be coming to Laura again!”


“Mani is a magic man! My Greay Dane is incredibly sensitive (and large!). He is so wonderful with her, incredibly understanding and kind. I was so worried leaving her to go on holiday and Mani made me feel very comfortable. Send multiple videos, photos and updates every day. I think he is now Taylor's new best friend! 💛”

“I am very happy how she took care of my cats. She is absolutely wonderful and has always communicated with me about the cats. I will definitely use her services again in the future”

“A wonderful overnight stay for Luna. Home from home. A great garden to sniff in and play, and a warm welcome from the very caring and lovely Juliette. Lots of lovely updates and photos shared too. Knowing she’s having a great time and is being cared for makes working in Birmingham away from our usual London home, easy.”

About: I have had the pleasure of working with a variety of dogs and cats over the last few years! I have a border collie, so I’m very much used to looking after energetic dogs who need a lot of stimulation. Additionally, I have 3 Bengal cats who are very demanding! I absolutely love to look after animals and provide them with their usual routines and spend time with them! Rest assured, you will always receive lots of videos and photos whilst I do drop in visits, walking or pet sitting to keep your mind at ease. I always like to do a couple of meet and greets, so you can get to know me and your pets can get to know me too! I approach it very much like how I would want it. I will always be able to tell you if I’m happy on the first meet and greet! If your pets have any dietary requirements or needing medication. I am happy to do this because I have experience in doing so. Furthermore, I have looked after so many puppy’s and I have trained them all of there commands. My main aim is to make sure your pet is happy but you also too! 😁 I work from home, so I am able to provide pet care at anytime of the day or night. Short notice is also fine for me! I would follow all of your usual routines to keep your pets happy. I would provide regular updates to keep you reassured. Any requests, would never be too much!
“We had an amazing experience with Pavithra! She took such great care of Fendi while we were away. It was clear from the updates that she was happy, comfortable, and incredibly well loved. Fendi is already missing her so much! We will absolutely book again and highly recommend Pavithra to anyone looking for a fantastic sitter!!!”


About: I grew up surounded by all kind of pets and farm animals. Since I can remember, various creatures were kept at my childhood home (from small to huge!) like fish, parrots, cats and dogs. I currently keep a hamster called Chungus, cat - Gilbert, turtle - Raisin, fish and our beloved Cockapoo Luna. I bathe, groom and train Luna myself and she is the best, most friendly girl ever! I work from home, so your dog can expect a morning and afternoon walk + access to the fenced garden at all times. I will be there all the time to make sure all of their needs are taken care off. I have a fenced garden and will watch your dog whenever they are outside. Also, my dog Luna is super friendly and will gladly keep your dog company inside and outside of the house.
“Tareq has been absolutely brilliant with Buster. He’s kept him entertained and cared for him as well as keeping me regularly informed. Buster has had a brilliant time and cannot recommend Tareq enough”

About: Growing up, I always looked after my neighbours cats as my parents wouldn’t get me one. During Covid, I rescued Molly (a lionhead rabbit) and then found her a partner after a year. It was so relaxing to look after furry friends that I decided to get a small dog. Being fully occupied with three pets was entertaining and rewarding at the same time. Alfie (my young Shihtzu) came in to my life as special friend, and our bond is made in heaven. He’s been through a few surgeries due to his genetic disorder so my partner and I look after him with extra care, and give him the diva treatment cause he deserves every happiness in life. While treating Alfie, we have learned so much about dog care, training, grooming, nutrition and health management that we can diagnose health concerns often by looking at him. We all know our pets really well. My partner and I have become experts in dog care. Alfie loves playing with other dogs, so I have decided to open our flat for boarding and day care. Alfie would love to play with other small/medium dogs. Our first floor apartment is safe and we have a fenced garden downstairs, with access to additional park across the road. We also have all the dog essentials and grooming supplies if required. I’m an assistant professor at the University, and have been teaching for over 9 years, particularly to Year-1 who are new to the universities. I’ve consistently received 95% student satisfaction rate and my students would describe me as ‘trustworthy, reliable, friendly, knowledgeable and supportive’. I teach a few hours at the University, and work from home the remaining hours. I shall be looking after your pet on the days I’m working from home. During the school holidays, there are no classes so I work from home, if I need to. I take Alfie down for walks at least three times a day, sometimes more. Due to Alfie’s history, I’m vigilant about dog safety and pay extra care in ensuring his safety. I will do the same for your dog. There’s a fenced garden downstairs and another across the road. It’s a safe neighbourhood and most residents know me and my partner. I’m reliable and friendly, so your dog will be in good hands.
“Quiayna was amazing from the get go, arranged a meet and greet before booking. Took a real interest in Bruce and his routine, likes dislikes ect. Made Bruce feel extremely welcome and kept us updated regularly. I felt very comfortable leaving Bruce in Quiayna’s care and we look forward to his next visit. Thank you very much. Highly recommended :)”

“Obi is always happy to spend time on his little holidays with Rachel and her family, and settles in extremely quickly. She sends daily pictures and updates to let us know how he is doing. We would recommend Rachel to anyone who requires reassurances about leaving their furr babies, they would be left in very caring and capable hands.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, so I’m very comfortable understanding their behaviour, routines, and needs. I believe in providing both structure and affection, making sure dogs feel secure, happy, and well cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and confident handling different personalities, whether that means energetic playtime, calm companionship, or reinforcing good behaviour. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always aim to create a safe, loving environment while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine as I’m currently at university and only have lectures two days a week, which gives me a lot of flexibility. I love being outdoors and going on walks, so caring for a dog fits perfectly with my lifestyle. I live very close to Selly Park, which is a great green space for walks, playtime, and fresh air. I’m happy to give dogs plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship throughout the day. In my home, pets will be in a safe and welcoming environment. I am a big dog lover, so will always spoil them with attention and affection. I have a small fenced garden and a spacious living room where dogs can relax and play comfortably. I also live close to Selly Park, which is perfect for regular walks and outdoor time.
About: I have owned three dogs and also helped take care of friends’ dogs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making them feel comfortable and safe. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with a dedicated dog walking area, and I can provide regular walks, playtime and lots of attention. I am patient, responsible and happy to follow each owner’s care instructions. I am currently a university student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for pets. I am available for boarding on most weekdays and weekends, and I can provide regular walks, playtime and attention throughout the day. I live in a clean and pet-friendly apartment with a dedicated dog walking area nearby. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable and well supervised. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walking and routines, and I will treat every pet with patience and care.

We had an amazing experience with Pavithra! She took such great care of Fendi while we were away. It was clear from the updates that she was happy, comfortable, and incredibly well loved. Fendi is already missing her so much! We will absolutely book again and highly recommend Pavithra to anyone looking for a fantastic sitter!!!

Lawra and her partner were both great sitters. I was anxious about leaving my cat with a sitter for the first time, especially since it was for a week, but Lawra took into account my worries and gave regular updates, as well as keeping to the feeding instructions that I'd advised. My cat ended up being pretty anxious himself the first couple of days but she dealt with that hiccup well. He appeared to be really liking it at their home when I came for pickup and I wouldn't hesitate to book again for sure.

So happy to have found Jiale. She took wonderful care of my 3year old cocker spaniel Henry. I was very anxious about leaving him with someone new and he didn’t settle right away but Jiale was very patient, caring & kind towards him. She took him for lots of walks, gave him a lot of attention and sent me lots of updates. I’ve picked up a very tired & happy boy after 2 nights with Jiale. Will definitely be booking with her again.

Mani is a magic man! My Greay Dane is incredibly sensitive (and large!). He is so wonderful with her, incredibly understanding and kind. I was so worried leaving her to go on holiday and Mani made me feel very comfortable. Send multiple videos, photos and updates every day. I think he is now Taylor's new best friend! 💛

Aurora was an absolute star ⭐! It was my first time leaving my puppy with someone outside our household, and I couldn't be happier about it. Aurora cared for him as if he were her own, keeping me updated with adorable photos and messages that made me feel completely at ease. I’ll definitely be requesting her help again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable friend for their pet!

Anabel was absolutely amazing with Cookie! She was reliable, caring, and treated Cookie as if she were her own. Throughout my trip, Anabel provided regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind and reassurance that Cookie was in safe and loving hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after her. I would highly recommend Anabel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

Ruby was a fantastic host to Frankie, instantly gelled with him, sent regular updates with pics and vids and just letting us know how he was in general. Lovely lady, great aura about her and u could tell she was a dog lover. Would highly recommend her to anyone! Thank you Ruby will get in touch if we need ur assistance again x

Our second time boarding our dog with Ming Yui, was just as perfect as the first. We received daily photo updates showing her playing, completely relaxed, and looking like part of the family. We cannot recommend Ming Yui highly enough. Thank you for the great experience

We booked Anthony to look after our pampered pooch Riley while we went on a 2 week cruise. Obviously we were worried about being so far away but Anthony made sure to send daily updates, pictures and videos. Riley settled in straight away and I know its a cliche but when we went to pick him up I don't think he was that keen on leaving. We would highly recommend Anthony if you are looking for someone to look after your fur baby :)
