“Once again Chris and Colin rise above all other sitters. There is not one trepidation leaving our Husky with them. I almost hate to post this (our own selfish reasons), but book early as their sitting schedule books up well into to new year. You will be glad you did.”


“Susan was great with our 18 month lab Chester! We had daily updates on their walks and adventures I would highly recommend for anyone looking for any dog sitting services! Thanks again Susan!!!!”


About: Promo Code: PRIJET47161 - for £15 off. Having cared for my own Chow Chow for three years, I understand the patience, consistency, and special attention that certain breeds require. Chow Chows are known for their strong-willed personalities, unique grooming needs, and loyalty, and through my experience, I’ve learned how to care for dogs with independent temperaments. I’m comfortable handling different dog breeds, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for. Whether it’s providing regular feeding, companionship, or playtime, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also understand the importance of routine, socialisation, and positive reinforcement, which helps dogs feel at ease when their owners are away. I’m passionate about giving pets the best care possible, and I know how important it is for owners to feel confident that their furry friends are in good hands! I have flexible availability, with most of my free time dedicated to caring for pets. I am mainly available on weekends, as well as some evenings during the week. This allows me to provide reliable and consistent care, ensuring pets receive the attention they need while their owners are away. I’m happy to discuss custom schedules based on your pet’s needs, whether it’s a one-off visit or regular check-ins. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate! While I no longer have a dog of my own, I’m still very much around dogs, my partner and her family have one, and I love spending time with him! He’s a chilled, friendly dog, and I always enjoy playing with him and giving him attention. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I always prioritise safety, trust, and comfort. I make sure to follow any specific routines, feeding schedules, and exercise needs to keep your pet happy and stress-free. I also respect your home and ensure everything is left just as you expect. Every pet is different, so I take the time to understand their personality, likes, and needs, ensuring they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether they love playtime, belly rubs, or just relaxing company, I’ll make sure they get the care they need.

“Volodymyr stayed at our house with our 2 dogs for 10 days and we were so impressed! From the very beginning, he was very communicative, gave regular updates, and wasn’t afraid to ask questions. One of our dogs has reactivity issues and Volodymyr handled him with ease. When we got home, our home was spotless and in pristine condition, and our dogs were very happy and well taken care of! We are very thankful for Volodymyr and we look forward to working with him again in the future! Highly recommend!”


“Great guy, super polite and took great care of our dog. Turned up on time and super flexible with his availability. Highly recommend and will use again 😊”


About: I bring a wide range of experience caring for many different types of animals including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, and small mammals. I’m confident handling pets with all kinds of needs, from playful puppies and curious kittens to gentle, senior dogs who may require extra patience and care. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each animal’s unique personality and routine. I’m patient, reliable, and always attentive to their wellbeing, whether that means sticking closely to feeding schedules, administering medication, or providing plenty of playtime and affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I’m committed to giving them a safe, happy, and stress free experience while you're away. I current work full time as a Research Technician for the University of Leicester in the in Cardiovascular Science department. I currently have 1 day a week where I work from home, usually a Thursday. I am therefore free to help with pet sitting on Thursdays during the day, providing I can work from your home. I am also free over the weekend for pet sitting duties. For drop in visits and dog walks I am available all week, before 9am and after 5pm. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priority is making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved in their familiar surroundings. I always take the time to understand their usual routine, including feeding times, walks, play, and rest. I understand how leaving our beloved pet can be an anxious or nervous time, therefore, I endeavour to maintain a sense of normality and minimise any stress while you're away, for both yourself and your fur babies. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home. I ensure I keep everything clean and tidy, follow all instructions closely, and ensure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. Whether it’s cuddles on the sofa, quiet time for older pets, or fun play sessions, I tailor my care to suit their needs and personality. I also believe clear communication is key, so I’m happy to send regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind.

“Bethany looked after our dog for one day. She visited a few days before to meet him. Her communication was excellent throughout with plenty of update photos on the day. He seemed really relaxed and to have enjoyed being looked after and we felt that he was in very safe hands. We will definitely be booking again!”

About: I’ve always been surrounded by animals, including cats and dogs. We helped raise my cats 5 kittens which was an amazing experience for our family. I’m currently working freelance so I have lots of spare time to help with your pet during the week, also some time on the weekends. I’m very flexible so please don’t hesitate to ask. We have a very secure locked garden with two super friendly cockapoos, so your pup will be in good company if they do need to come here. Plus I always treat anyone else home as my own so you have no concerns there.

I’m living in a lovely community away from the hustle bustle.

About: I am a dog auntie haha! I am not personally a dog or pet owner myself however that does not go to mean I do not absolutely adore and love animals and doggy’s to bits. I’m mainly available during weekends or evenings of the weekdays after 6pm due to work commitments and schedules. However, weekends i am much more flexible throughout the whole day as long as there’s enough notice:) I personally do not have pets of my own, however that does not mean i am not an animal doggy lover myself! I have always loved dogs cats you name it, you would find me in the corner away giving treats, cuddles and pets to the house dog or cat!

Prijesh T.
“I cannot recommend Prijesh T. enough as a pet sitter! He took care of my Cavapoo, Demi, and I was beyond impressed with his kindness, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals. Demi absolutely adores him, and it was clear from the start that he has a natural way with dogs. Prijesh went above and beyond to make sure Demi was happy, well-exercised, and comfortable. He kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Demi is usually quite particular about who she trusts, but with Prijesh, she was instantly at ease. His reliability, patience, and caring nature make him a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. Demi and I are so grateful for him, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. Highly recommend!”

Saffron S.
“When we entrusted our beloved fur babies to Saffron Smart, we didn’t just find a cat sitter—we found a guardian angel for our whiskered wonders. From the moment she stepped into our home, her gentle demeanor and genuine love for animals were undeniable. Our shy babies, normally hesitant around strangers, were purring in Saffron’s lap within minutes—a miracle we never thought possible! She not only tended to their needs with meticulous care, but she also showered them with affection, playtime, and the attention they deserved. The daily updates and adorable photos she sent us brought so much peace of mind, turning our time away from home into a guilt-free experience. Saffron didn’t just keep our cats fed and entertained; she made them feel safe, loved, and cherished. Coming home to happy, relaxed cats was proof of her magical touch. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pets like their own family, but that’s exactly who Saffron is. If you’re looking for someone to go above and beyond for your furry friends, look no further than Saffron. She’s more than a cat sitter—she’s a true blessing. Thank you, Saffron, for giving us the priceless gift of peace of mind and for loving our kitties as much as we do! ❤️🐾”
