“Klaudia did an amazing job looking after our boys (who are highly spoilt) at such short notice. We loved the photos and videos she sent. Klaudia comes highly recommended and we will definitely be asking her to look after our boys again.”

About: I have always taken care of my pets when my parents have gone away. Not only have I been around my own pets but my mum is a dog groomer so I have been around all breeds of dogs & cats in her salon I work full time 9-5 Monday to Friday so I will be able to look after your pets in the mornings & evenings as well as the weekends I will be very careful & kind with your pets as I understand it can be stressful for them to have someone they don’t know come into their home. I will ensure that I give them lots of cuddles & space when they need it

“Amy dropped in to see our cat Mitsy and spend a little time with her whilst we were away. Amy is very conscientious, sent us updates and photos which is reassuring and lovely to see. We've already booked her in for our next holiday. Thanks Amy :)”

About: Hi, I'm Debs. My experience with dogs started at a very young age. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats and I just love being with them and taking them out for walks, in all weather!! Rain or shine we're out enjoying walks in parks or at the beach. I'm very lucky to be a stay at home mum, which means I can be very flexible for your pet's needs. All my children are school age, and when they're home they love to be around the pets too. For dogs who are either boarding or staying for day care, our house has a fenced garden for them to play in safely. We live near two parks and a heath for walks. For dog walking, I have a car and am able to collect and return your pup after our walk. For Drop ins, I will spend all of the 30 minutes with your pet. Whether they need feeding, play time, letting out in the garden for a wee break, they will have my undivided attention. All services will be carried out with love and care, as well as me following any routines and schedules that you have for your pets.

About: I’m an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your dog. I have grown up training and looking after my family miniature schnauzer for the last 14.5 years and cared for him in his old age. I absolutely love looking after dogs, making sure they’re having a fun and comfortable stay. I have also helped train and look after my sister’s miniature dachshund from puppy. We have experience looking after cockapoos, cavapoos, schnauzers, dachshunds, schnoodles, goldendoodles, whippets, and many more! I work from home each day and have the flexibility to go on walks in the mornings, at lunchtime and in the evening. I live in a ground floor flat with large private gardens so we can have run arounds in between our fun walks out! We are 5 minutes from the beach and Branksome woods. My partner is a teacher and is around during the school holidays for longer stays and day trips out with your precious pooch. At our dog friendly home, we are on the ground floor and everywhere is safe for your pooch to go. We have a large garden for toilet breaks and great sniffs! We will be with your dog at all times, would keep your dog on a lead and adhere to any of your special requirements that you have for your beloved pet. We have a medium sized crate which can be used for travelling in the car or sleeping if your dog is crate trained at night. I have given great care to my elderly family dog, which included giving him medication, supporting him during walks, doing exercises for his back legs and in general giving him love and attention. If your dog has any particular needs please let me know and I’d be happy to help anyway I can.

About: I have looked after dogs for as long as I can remember. Friends, family and fellow dog walkers I have met at the park have always been able to rely on me to look after their furry friends. I'm currently at university with a flexible schedule, so have plenty of time to walk/ take care if your pups for as long as you need. I can walk your dogs whenever you need, feed them and give them all the time in the world while you are away. Rest assured they are in good hands in my care.

“Linda is absolutely brilliant - we had to go out for the evening and leave our 4 month puppy which we were a little concerned about initially but we needn’t have worried - Linda was great with Kona, her overall manner with aninals is lovely and you can tell it’s a real passion of hers - we felt very comfortable leave her with Linda and will absolutely be using again”

About: I have taken care of young energetic puppies through to older dogs, as well as cats! Not only am I trusted with other peoples pets, I love doing it too! I am Available during the week and weekend. I play tennis tournaments and dates do vary with availability but will make sure to give you notice!! Dogs and cats can be escape artists. I'll make sure to Supervise, with a safe environment even in a fenced yard or on a balcony.

About: Hi there! My name is Emily, I'm 29 and I’ve always been an animal lover and have raised two dogs from puppies — a cheeky little Cavapoo and a bouncy gundog Labrador. I’ve also cared for a big, soft-hearted Rottweiler who loved his cuddles just as much as his walks! During COVID, I helped out my vulnerable neighbours by walking their dogs, which gave me the chance to bond with all sorts of lovely pups. I’m gentle, patient, and always treat every dog like they’re my own — whether they’re a playful puppy or a slower-paced senior. I’m currently completing my university degree, so I spend most of my time at home and have a lot of flexibility in my routine. I’ll be starting a part-time job soon, but I still have plenty of availability, and I’m always happy to work around your pet’s needs. I’m available for last-minute bookings, evenings, and weekends with no problem at all. I’m also confident in giving medication if needed, whether it’s tablets, drops, or special care. Your pet’s comfort and well-being always come first with me! I’m very adaptable and will always make sure your pet feels loved and cared for. I live in a cosy, open-plan ground-floor apartment with a fully secure balcony, and there’s lots of grassy space right outside for regular walks and toilet breaks — I take pets out at least every hour to avoid any accidents! I have an adopted cat called Pebbles — he’s a big softie, half Maine Coon and half Tabby, and he’s brilliant with all kinds of animals. That said, he spends most of his time outdoors lounging on the driveway or in the bushes, so he’s rarely in the way. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family — they’re welcome on the sofa and even the bed for cuddles (if you’re happy with that!). With your blessing, I’ll happily spoil them with treats, play with their favourite toys, and stick closely to their usual routine so they feel totally at home. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, their comfort, safety, and happiness always come first.

About: I’ve taken care of my friend’s dog since 2023. One of them is scared to be touch by strangers, but after a while she trusted me and let me pet, take care of her. I’m a full-time HR administrator of SWRAC (specialist independent college). So I would be able to have all my weekend to take care of pets. Safety: I make sure the space is clean, secure, and free from hazards. I carefully follow any instructions from pet owners regarding feeding, exercise, medication, and special needs. Doors, windows, and outdoor areas are checked to prevent escapes or accidents. Trust: I take time to get to know each pet, respecting their unique personalities and routines. I approach them gently and patiently, using positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust and help them feel at ease. Environment: I provide a clean, cosy space with comfortable bedding, fresh water, and appropriate toys. If I’m in the owner’s home, I maintain the pet’s usual schedule and habits to minimise stress and keep things familiar. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos, so they feel reassured. Above all, I treat every pet with kindness, attention, and care—as if they were my own. My goal is to create a safe, trustworthy, and happy environment where pets feel secure and loved, whether they are at home or staying with me.

About: I have done regular pet sitting through a well respected website and consistently receive 5* reviews. I am great with animals and they trust me and enjoy my calm, confident manner. I've looked after several elderly dogs but am comfortable with any age. I work part-time: 4 mornings per week (9am til 1pm) so I would be available afternoons, evenings and weekends for pet sitting assignments as needed. I often enjoy an excuse to go away for a weekend and do lots of house sitting but also enjoy having pets in my own home. I have a ground floor flat with outdoor space (unfenced) and extensive public green spaces within 3 minutes walk. When sitting in other people's homes I am clean and respectful and stick to the pet's routine.

“Emily was amazing! She was so kind, caring and understanding. I will definitely be using her again. She even went the extra mile to clean and feed the parrot. She sent me lovely videos making me feel reassured whilst I was away. Thank you for looking after puss puss and arcoo xxx”

About: I've had dogs my whole life but my partner and I adopted our little boy Rolo 3 years ago now. Trained him from a pup when we got him at 4 months. I love any and all dogs and happy to make sure your little one (or big one!) is well taken care of. I'll treat them like they were my own. I know how important a good walk and some good company is. And I can throw a ball for them pretty far if they need to let off steam! Currently doing ad-hoc work before training to be a carpenter, Wed-Fri I have access to a car which allows me to take dogs away for decent park walks. Will give plently of love and attention, I often play with my dog with toys and scent training. If he wants his own space I'll leave him be but often he'll want to cuddle on the sofa.

About: I grew up with my dog, whos now 15 years old and is literally called my brother (by my mum.) My family has also had cats and bunnies too, so I’ve experienced all sorts of pets. I’m a massive animal lover, always have been, and i enjoy the outdoors! Especially if there are any cute dogs I spot along the way. I’m currently working as a freelancer, so I can make my own hours and I also do some part time work at the weekend. So pet care easily can fit into my daily and weekly routine. I’m very flexible with timings and can always ensure to work around whatevers needed! I’ll greet your pets and ensure I’m friendly when I visit them! Once they’re settled down and ready to go out, I’ll pop their lead on and take them for their walk, including having lots of photos taken!!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover. I have spent years caring for a variety of pets—from dogs, cats and hamsters to guinea pigs and rabbits. Having shared my life with different animals, I truly appreciate that each one has its own personality, needs, and rhythm. I’m hands-on, caring, and focused on tailoring my approach to suit your pet—whether they’re full of energy, prefer a peaceful pace, or need a little extra patience. My goal is always to help them feel calm, safe, and loved in a new environment. That said, due to a severe allergy that developed a few years ago, I’m sadly unable to take care of cats. I work from home which provides me with full flexibility, allowing for attentive care of your pet throughout the day. Your pet will never be left alone for long and will have lots of company, affection, and engagement while staying with me. I provide a calm, pet-friendly home with attentive supervision and care based on your pet’s needs. Their well-being, comfort, and safety always come first. Please note, while I enjoy having dogs around and giving them space to relax freely, I prefer not to have them sleep in the bed-unless they're small (under 10kg). As I live in a flat, I also need to be mindful of neighbours; occasional barking is totally fine, but I'm unable to accept very vocal dogs.

“Iris is lovely and dropped in on Eddie at short notice - we gave her a bunch of instructions and nothing was too much trouble, thank you Iris! would recommend!”

“It was the first time Katie had looked after our cat Casper. Casper is anxious when meeting strangers but Katie was caring towards him and spent time gaining his trust. Katie followed all our wishes and left the kitchen clean and tidy. We also came home to a happy Casper! We could not have been happier and will not hesitate to book Katie again.”

About: I’ve been around all different types of breeds of dogs since I was born, lots of family pets and looking after family friends animals. I have trained puppies into adults. I love big and small dogs. I’ve recently transitioned into a full time office position, Mon - Thurs and a half day on a Friday. Depending on location, I would be able to pop in/out mid day for a walk and to let them out for the toilet. From July I will be able to work from home a few days during the week, if you’re happy for me to bring my laptop then please let me know if this would work for you. I understand not all dogs and owners like the idea of them being left alone for certain time periods so please keep this in mind when booking. I would love to be able to make bookings work around this and would make up for that period of time away with lots of cuddles. I will love your pet like they’re my own, taking care of their needs in your home. Lots of cuddles, treats, bonding and long walks.

About: I've had dogs since 2011 of my own, I think I love them the most. I put their wellbeing first and make sure I follow owners rules. I will do everything to ensure they are well exercised if they need, no matter how long the walk, they will be loved, made to feel special and kept in sight. I'm currently not working, so am available at all time of day and night. For walks, sitting or hosting. I can be available with short notice I have a small patio that is walled and has some bushes to rummage in. I will always keep the dog in sight regardless of in my home or an owners. Will adhere to feeding and treat and diet rules and only treat the dogs like princes and princesses!!
