House Sitting Bournemouth

“Lisa-Ann took wonderful care of our Red Labrador, Rex, taking the time to get to know him and us beforehand. Our doggie enjoyed wonderful walks and fun whilst we were away for the week and was very relaxed in her company. Her experience and love of dogs is excellent, alongside her communication to us throughout. Highly recommend Lisa-Ann, who gave over and above. We hope another opportunity arises in the future for Rex to hang out with Lisa-Ann and her family again, thank you!”

“Leaving my girls with Karen is always wonderful for them and me no know they are well taken care of regardless of whatever may happen (this weekend we had a images on and I couldn’t get back because flights were cancelled). Karen makes it so much easier to deal with the other stressors because she just takes it ins tries and keeps the girls safe, happy and feeling loved!”

About: Hi there! I have got a life-long experience of living with cats. I have always owned a cat, first as a child, now as an adult. My two gingers are my world! I got them when they were teeny-tiny kittens, now they are 4 and 1. They are a hard work at times, but I love and adore them, and take really good care of them. I make sure they get plenty of attention and play time, and not underfed or overfed. I always worry when I go away myself, if the person allocated to keep them happy is following the instructions and whether the cats are doing fine, so I totally understand how important it is to follow the owner’s instructions and update them with photos and videos, so they have a care-free holiday. It must be hard for cats also to see the stranger instead of familiar faces at home, so I will be your cat’s best friend during your time away. I promise to take care of your cat as if it was my own, and to keep you stress-free:) Do not hesitate in picking me, I am very responsible and attentive person. You can rely on me and trust me, I won’t let you down. I cannot wait to meet you and your cat:)

“Maria is a lovely lady and took really good care of my cat Touchy whilst we were away. She sent loads of videos and photos every day which was very reassuring. I would highly recommend Maria and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future. Thank you so much for looking after my little girl ????xx”

“Linda was wonderful with my dog Mousse. She sent me loads of pictures and updates, and took her for a lovely walk on the beach. I would really recommend her.”

“Sonya has been fantastic- kind and great with both our house and pets. Throughout the week we were away, we got regular updates with photos and videos, which helped us relax that all is in order back home. We would happily book her services again.”

“Thank you, Gemma, for perfect care of Daisy while I was away. It was incredibly easy to arrange the day with you and instructions were followed perfectly. It’s clear you’re a natural with dogs as Daisy loved you from the second you arrived! Thank you again, and we hope to see you soon! ⭐️”

“Sarah looked after our staffie x American bully while we were away camping. Benji can be quite anxious, hyperactive and can be a bit of a handful. She set up a meeting prior to the sit so we could meet her and discuss Benji's routine. She stayed in touch the whole weekend and sent us updates and pictures which put our minds at ease. Benji was very settled when we got home and Sarah left the house clean and tidy. We would reccomend Sarah 10 times over. Thank you so much 🥰”

“Always on time, the kids love spending time with Maxine. Friendly and lovely being. The kids can tell too! I'd highly recommend Maxine to anyone with doggo kids. Totally worth it!!!”

About: I have grown up with dogs, specifically golden retrievers and labradors. However I have looked after small dogs, fluffy dogs, dogs heavier than me(!), dogs with high energy and ones that are perfect therapy dogs 😅🥰 But most importantly I love and care for them all the same way 💕💕 I currently have the summer off from work as I work in a school, so I am home 24/7. I’m very active and love to explore new places🥰🥰 I live in a bottom floor flat with our own entry, with a non-fenced garden. It is not near a main road. I’m happy to crate dogs if needed, or they can be out all day with me ☺️☺️

“Ivana took excellent care of our Cavapoo, and was a very conscientious guest in our home, leaving everything just as she found it. Our dog was very happy and calm when we came home!”

Carrie P.

“Thanks again Georgia for looking after Herc for us. He is so happy to spend time with you and is exhausted now from all the love and attention you gave him. See you soon!”

Ruth G.

“Matias took great care of Albert, he is a great sitter. Amazing communication and daily updates with photos. I am happy to have booked him and will use him again as came back home to a happy dog. I highly recommend him?”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved caring for them. I have a friendly, well-trained 7 year old Sprocker Spaniel of my own, so I’m very comfortable with dogs and understand their different personalities and needs. I also regularly help my mum with her dog walking business, giving me hands on experience caring for and walking dogs. I’m patient, reliable and treat every dog as an individual, making sure they feel safe, happy and at home. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, walks and playtime. I’m available for boarding at weekends and on weekdays around my work schedule. I’m happy to discuss your dog’s routine and make sure they get the care and exercise they’re used to. I have a secure, fenced garden and a friendly, well-trained 7 year old Sprocker Spaniel. I’ll make sure your dog is safe, comfortable and supervised throughout their stay. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, walks and crate time if needed.

About: My love for animals is at the heart of everything I do 💚. Coming from a pet-orientated family, this has aided my understanding of their emotions, the care they require, and overall needs. Although I do not have any formal, professional experience with pets, I'm a responsible and reliable individual, taking on any job with stride, who will ensure that your dog will be fed, played with, and looked after with the appropriate care. I am a BSc Hons Graduate, actively looking for work, so currently offer a flexible schedule to accommodate a pet-owner's needs 🙂. I love to go on walks and explore new places. It's a genuine enjoyment of mine! I have one dog, an eight-year-old German Shepard Dog x American Akita named Maia 🥰! Unfortunately, despite loving people, she is very reactive to other animals so I'm unable to house-sit in my home or take her along for walks with your pet(s). Therefore, I am more so looking to care for dogs at the owner's home. I believe a familiar space contributes to the general wellbeing of both pet and sitter; making sure they're comfortable is a top priority. I will spend quality time with your pet - I'm a skilled competitor at tug-of-war - and build up their trust as this has great importance for both the love and respect of an animal. What I will offer: 🐾 A calm environment where your dog will be cared for like family. 🪢 Interactive playtime for constant engagement; games to keep those tails wagging! 🏞 Daily walks, length and place tailored to a pet owner's request. *Note: I do not drive. I will get to know your dogs individual personality and base my time with them on their likes/dislikes, enjoyment, and schedule. Whether the stay is a calm, lounging (lots of cuddles) day or a high-energy day filled with exercise (and still lots of cuddles), I am flexible with what's required. I am open to multiple walks, differing in length and place - generally, I will keep your dog on the lead during these outings. If specifically told that they're okay off the lead and will follow verbal instructions then I am more than happy to accomodate this for more of an enjoyable experience.

About: i’ve had two dogs of my own in which i have trained and look after, as well as looking after several puppies when being born which my family friend let me look after, after their female dog gave birth. i have also helped my neighbours when they have needed for me to stay at their house with their cats and dogs and walk their dogs as well as my family members i am currently unemployed as i am in between college and university which allows me to have a lot of time to look after your dogs. i have a black labrador called monty of my own in which i walk two to three times a day at the moment. i am abke to take on late notice requests which can be helpful for many who have busy schedules and have changes of plans. i love all animals, especially dogs which is why i want to spend time and get to know your pets. i am more so looking to look after dogs at the owners home, as i believe it is a safe space for the dog with the familiar smells as well as it being better for my own personal self, in which i will play with your dog such as throw tennis balls or play tug of war. i will also spend quality time with them in which i can sit and build their trust which i believe is key as dogs should be treated with love and respect.

“Very happy with Jessy looking after Stanley. She looked after him, at our house, all day whilst we went to a wedding. Jessy was very confident and comfortable with Stan. She walked him feed him and played with him and kept us up you date with pictures which was lovely. Would highly recommend”

About: Hi, I’m Julia! I’ve been looking after dogs since I was 16 and absolutely love it. I’m not quite ready to commit to my own four-legged bestie just yet, so pet sitting has become the perfect way for me to enjoy their company. Because I genuinely enjoy it, I’m happy to charge lower rates, I see it more as a pleasure than a job, especially when I’m working from home and on my own which can get a bit lonely. I lead a very active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors. With a large garden, dogs that I look after can spend their time running around and having fun. Due to working from home often, I’m very flexible and can usually accommodate same-day bookings. Don’t hesitate to get in touch — I’d love to meet your pup! I work from home and only part-time as I’m currently on my university placement year — and I’ve already completed my placement allocation, so I have plenty of free time! This allows me to give lots of attention to the pets I care for and easily fit walks, visits, and playtime into my daily routine. I go on many long walks and runs, both with the dogs I look after and even on my own. The amount of exercise will always be tailored to your dog’s needs, whether they prefer gentle strolls or more active outings. In my home, dogs are always supervised in a calm, safe environment with a large, secure garden for play and fresh air. I have no children, no other pets, and no one smokes in the house, making it a peaceful space for your pup. I follow your care instructions closely to keep your dog happy and relaxed.

“Tom and his partner were great with communication during the entire sit, they responded fast and gave us lovely photos of our woofs! Our dogs took to them very fast and they loved spending time with Tom and his partner! Especially a dog the size of our Apollo, it was very good to have someone to walk him as it can be harder to manage a dog of his size! Absolutely recommended!!”

About: Ever since I was born we have had dogs as pets in the family home. I am therefore very much used to looking after dogs and meeting all their requirements. I love taking dogs for long walks, playing with them and having cuddles! I also have a number of years of experience of house sitting which has involved looking after three gorgeous dogs of varying shapes, sizes and ages! I feel comfortable and competent looking after animals and you can trust me to love and care for your pet! I am a doctor currently working in Poole hospital. I have most weekends off and the occasional weekday free. I love looking after people’s pets but will only commit to this on a day when I am off and able to give the animal the full care and attention they need! I live very close to local parks and the beach so have easy access to lots of green space for them to run around in. There are no other pets or children in the house.
