“very respectful and great around the cats. would definitely recommend :)”

“Heather was really great! We have an elderly dog with mobility problems and she had no problems looking after him and keeping him company for the drop in sessions. Would definitely recommend for anyone with elderly or anxious dogs!”

About: I’ve had police working dogs that were obedience and agility trained and also took part in multiple dog shows. I also have had experience breeding dogs as my dog had a litter of her own. I’ve always thoroughly enjoyed being around dogs and walking them so I take care and walk my friends dogs too. Just an all round dog lover! Perfect fit during a day and nights. Garden and home facilities available. Enjoying spending my time with the dogs at home and walking around nature. I can do both but prefer my home. It's absolutely safe at my home and Garden is big enough also safe for the dogs all day long

About: Hi my name is Debs, I have known about having dogs all of my life, it's a privilege and a pleasure, rest assured you're precious baby is my precious baby, I will take care of your dog as I do mine ♥️ I am at home all day and for my Dylan having company besides me would be a good and rewarding thing. He's such a chilled out dog, I just think he's a little tinker and could do with company, but is also quite happy playing with me I think I am quite a caring animal lover who is happy to walk or also happy to play throw n fetch which doesn't always work on the fetch

“Beth used to look after my dog Leo when we were at work or on holiday. She looked after him like he was her own and made sure he had everything that he needed. That included great walks, food, love and attention. We always knew we could leave our loved little man with Beth and he would be safe and well looked after at all times. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Beth to look after someone’s else’s Pet as I know she would treat them as her own.”

“Jack is a natural with dogs, I have a large Newfypoo and my partner has a cocker spaniel and he is brilliant with both of them. Keeps them under control and will walk them all day long if required.”

“Katie came for drop in visits to check on both my dogs whilst I was away and she was fantastic, followed instructions which I left for her and they were both well looked after which put my mind at ease. Would defiantly recommend x”

About: I’ve looked after dogs since the age of 13, I grew up with a westie and now have my own border collie, so I’m used to different energy levels!! I’ve looked after both senior dogs and puppies for friends and family, and love doing mentally stimulating activities with the pups! :) I currently work full-time, so I am available weekdays after 4pm until late, and all day, any time on Saturdays and Sundays so very flexible. I have a friendly dog to keep yours company if you’d like, or I can come alone if your dog prefers peace. I am obviously flexible to your dogs routine, the pups come first!

“Our Golden Retriever Ralph absolutely loves a visit to Alex and Sarah’s for a play date with Luna 🖤 they are reliable, they make the arrangement really easy and they send us photos and video updates while he is there and he always has a big grin on his face in all of them 😁”

About: I've grown up with dogs, and since 2007 have owned my own - I currently have four dogs (and five cats). I have worked as a dog walker for years, and have recently retrained to work as a Dog Training Advisor. I work full time as a self-employed Dog Training Advisor, Canine Behaviourist and Dog Walker. I am available to work Mon-Fri, but do offer some weekend drop-ins, walks and training sessions too. As a Dog Trainer, I take the time to find out about your dog - their likes, needs, age, health, abilities and any behavioural issues. Although I do offer multiple dog walks, this is only ever done after dogs have been assessed for temperament. Dogs are kept on-lead until engagement has been built up, and are never let off lead if it is your request not to do so.

About: All my life my family has raised many happy and healthy animals and I've always had a love for other people's pets and wild animals. I will go above and beyond to provide safety and love for all creatures large or small. I am at my most happiest when I am caring for or spending time with animals. Its all I do in my spare time and would love to do it full time. I own a leopard gecko and small dog. Both I care for daily but I do have family in the house to help so I have spare time to help out friends and other family with there animal care too. I love to spend time with nature more than people

“We would 100% recommend Lucy. She watched our Dachshund Bertie whilst we were away for a few days and instantly put us at ease. She was friendly and professional and was really good when with meeting Bertie for the first time. She was also really responsive and flexible when arranging. Thank you Lucy.”

“Rose is responsible, caring and loving. She has a rescue dog from Hungary who is sweet, gentle and easy going through Rose’s hard work with her. She also has a spaniel who is easy going non-confrontational with all dogs. She is based is a lovely area with fantastic walks and she always puts her dogs first. Rose is knowledgeable about keeping dogs healthy and happy. She is even great with dogs that have issues and has has looked after a nervous dog with the same care and calmness that she shows to all dogs. I would recommend Rose to anyone who wants someone they can trust to walk or look after their dog as well as they do it themselves.”

About: I previously had a Pomchi called Sandy who is now 2 years old, we got her from the young age of 9 weeks. From having Sandy, I’ve gained relevant experience in looking after a puppy/dog from puppy training, house training, walks & getting barking under control as much as possible. I also have had cats from a very young age (they live at my mums), I am an absolute animal lover & love taking care of pets, showing affection & love. I would take thorough care of any pet that comes into my care & it would be lovely for Sandy to have a friend as she is forever running around the house with new toys to play with! My dog loves having other pets round the house & so do we. I have a park just down the road where I regularly walk my dog, it’s a spacious park & a lovely walk for myself. Currently working Part Time with a maximum of 18.5 hours per week, I am available Thursday - Sunday full time at home but my dog stays at home Monday - Wednesday and I visit her on my dinner so she isn’t on her own for longer than 3 hours at a time. I have a fenced yard, my dog regularly spends time in the yard running around. At night time, Sandy has access to the living room & kitchen until bed time where she will then come upstairs and is welcome to sleep on the bed if she likes. This will be the same with any pet I look after. Plenty of time to play with your animals, I do work round the corner so can easily pop home on lunch too. I work 3 days a week so 4 days will be spent at home. I can provide a crate for your animal if you would prefer, they will be able to roam the house/yard freely and also can sleep where they like!

About: I am currently undergoing a diploma in Advanced Canine Behaviour through the British College of Canine Studies. I have had dogs and horses in my life for almost 30 years with experience of training dogs; I have recently rescued a young Spanish Podenco (hunting dog) and am going through staged training with him with a view to undergoing further Kennel Club awards and agility training. I work part-time and am available most Fridays and weekends to help with your furry friends at the moment. My aim is for the time I can offer to increase. I am hugely conscientious and safety-conscious. I will of course adapt to any needs required if possible at my own home, and will not hesitate to decline a job if I do not think it would work taking into account my own dog. In terms of sitting at an owner's home, I will abide by all rules and requirements and will always give your pet 100% and as much love, care and attention as I can possibly offer (more than any kennels could offer!). I know being away from their owners can cause stress and anxiety in dogs and will always do my best to help your dog through this if needed.

About: I've taken care, walked and basic trained dogs since I was 13. I've owned a collie, boxer cross and lurcher. Currently I own another collie. I've always loved dogs and so would love to help in anyways possible to keep your pooches as happy as they can be. Mornings walks Monday - Friday 9:30-11:30 Some Saturdays available. This works around me taking my daughter to school and then having full time work in evenings. I start work at 2. And then Husband is back at 5 so pooch is never alone for More than 4 hours I have a fenced back garden and a calm dog who likes to relax in the evenings for company. Am able to store a crate in house if required/desired

About: I've owned dogs for overs 10 yrs, and provided dog sitting services for other family members for various reasons from dog walks to calling into feed them. To looking after them in both mine and their own home whilst they've been on holiday. I have raised dogs from puppies so am aware of the different needs. Every dog has its own personality and as such I like to arrange a meet and greet prior to looking after your pet to ensure I am aware of all their needs and daily routine. I currently work from home full time so I am able to plan my time around the needs of your pet. I am also an active person who enjoys being outside so I am able to give your pet plenty of exercise if required. I am a calm natured person and have found that dogs do settle easily with me. If caring for a dog in their own home then I would just stick to their daily routine as I find that this keeps your pet content and settled. If caring for pets in my home, I have a fenced back garden that they will have access to. I also have the countryside on my doorstep so they will get plenty of good walks. I am also able to offer plenty of interaction too.

“Alicja is the perfect dog sitter, a very friendly girl and always more than happy looking after my fur baby. Amazing service to the point where my dog gets excited when she comes to look after him! Will use her over and over again :)”

“Lily was great with my senior dog giving him attention and love whenever he wanted. She cared for him just like her own. We were provided with updates throughout her care so we constantly knew how everything was going which put us more at ease. Our dog loved playing with her little dog. I would definitely ask Lily to care for my dog again.”
