About: Hi, I’m Louisa – an animal lover with three furbabies of my own, offering personal dog care and walking services in Bridgend, and surrounding areas. I’m fully insured, DBS checked, and have plenty of experience. Whether your dog prefers solo strolls, group adventures, or just some company at home, I’ll treat them like one of my own... I currently work part-time for my family’s business, giving me plenty of flexibility to look after your pets during the day. I’m also a part-time dog walker so whether I’m with my own three dogs or caring for someone else’s, I’m happiest when I’m spending time with four-legged friends! Keeping tails wagging with safe, loving care at home and on every walk! Whether I’m caring for your dog at home or taking them out for a walk, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m DBS checked and always start with my Customer Care Form to get to know your dog’s routine, needs, and emergency contacts. While dog sitting, I keep their days happy, safe, and familiar — and if we go for a walk, I use secure leads, avoid hazards, and make sure every outing is relaxed and enjoyable.

“Tia and Matt have been an incredible help with us and our new little pup, Skye. They are so reliable and we always feel so comfortable leaving Skye with them. Skye gets treated like a lil princess and absolutely adores them. We couldn’t recommend them enough. X”

“Andrea was amazing. She Dog sat for us for over a week and Koal really enjoyed her company. I didn't know Andrea before booking and this was the first time we have had someone stay in our house that we didn't know. Andrea made us feel at ease from the first meeting providing us with feedback from other cliants, documentation and her friendly personality. When we were on holiday she sent go pro videos of their adventures and kept us up to date at all times. The house was clean and tidy when we arrived back home from holiday and even replaced our milk so we could have a cupper when we got back. Would highly recommend. She is now comanly known as auntie Andrea.”

About: When I was 3, my parents adopted a border collie cross puppy, and I instantly fell in love. From then on, my parents knew that wherever she was, they would find me too. I decided to study animals in school and college (Animal Mangagment BTEC), and when my parents got another border collie puppy when I was 15 I became the main trainer for her. With the support of an incredible dog trainer, we passed all levels of the Kennel Club Good Citizens Award first time, and I couldn't have been prouder of her. When college finished and I'd volunteered with the dog trainer, learning tips and tricks along the way, as well as worked in a kennels and cattery and horse stables for work experience, I began university. I studied Animal Management and Behaviour and achieved an FDSC in this. I absolutely adored the course, especially because it also gave me experience with farm and zoo animals. After graduation, I moved in with my now-wife, and we began growing our little pet family. First, we adopted a stray cat, Kiara, who jumped in through the window and never left (much to our joy). Then, we became foster carers for Dog's Trust, handling medical cases, puppies, and more. And finally, they foolishly gave us an 8 week old golden retriever puppy who had been surrendered due to health issues. We proudly failed that foster, and I now have my heart dog. I worked extensively with a trainer to support her, and couldn't be happier. Due to a mix of formal education and fortune, I feel comfortable handling a variety of situations, including medication, day to day enrichment, walks, play, training, and more! I am a stay at home dog and cat mum, looking to support those who need some support with theirs. I'm also open to looking after farms/horses and unusual/exotic pets so please get in touch to discuss. I don't drive, so often walk to houses so during the week I can only take 1 mile radius but on the weekend 7 mile radius when my doting wife can drop me off! With regards to doggy day care and boarding I can only accept friendly dogs with no behaviour problems as I don't want to put my dog at risk. I will require a meet and greet with any dogs before allowing them into my home to ensure everyone's safety. I treat every animal as I'd want mine to be treated. I make sure my fenced garden is well maintained, my animals have regular health checks, the stair gates are in proper use, and there are toys and enrichment opportunities aplenty, to keep everyone entertained! I also frequently give my own animals medication, so know how to follow a schedule, just make sure this is discussed with me!

“Fantastic lady!! My fur baby was so happy and come home happy too! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Max x”

“James stayed in our home for a week with our dog Coco. He was amazing with her and was brilliant at keeping us updated with photos etc. We would definitely use James again!”

“I cannot recommend Yasmin enough! We were so so nervous leaving our very anxious dog with separation anxiety and two shy rescue cats, but Yasmin was absolutely brilliant. The pets instantly relaxed around her, she provided regular updates, and we came home to a spotless house and three very happy pets. We won't hesitate to book her again. Thank you so so much!”

About: I have loved looking after all types pets for as long as I can remember I treat all pets like family giving the love and care they deserve I work full time but I get plenty of time to pop through to homes throughout the day while working to make sure all pets are fed have plenty of toilet breaks and lots of snuggles I currently can not look after pets in my own home but I can crate pets easily give they food drinks and walks all especially all the love they deserve

About: I have given homes to three elderly reactive rescue dogs who I had to build trust with for them to be happy. I currently offer dog boarding from my own home giving me experience with all types of dogs including big strong dogs to small fluffy lap dogs. Also I am currently training as a dog groomer. I work part time from home so I am in during the day to give company to our dog boarders. I am free on weekends to provide dog sits in owners homes. I provide a home from home experience for our boarders. We have an enclosed garden for the dogs to investigate. I am in most of the day and keep the back doors open to allow dogs to go outside if they wish (weather dependant). I can accommodate walks and feeding whenever is suitable for the dog to fit their routine.

“Bea house sat for us for 4 nights and was absolutely brilliant, she put us at ease as soon as she came through the door, sent us loads of pictures and had great coms, one of the best on Rover in my opinion, highly recommended”

“Avalon has been an absolute god send and I would highly recommend her services. She came to me the day before and introduced herself to my two springers. One of which is very nervy but she won them both round in minutes. Whilst I was away for 3 days she was able to pop over as many times as needed to feed, walk, and generally be with them so that they felt comfortable and happy. She updated me throughout the day and sent me many cute pictures, which reassured me no end. All in all, I would definitely use Avalons services again and would be happy to recommend her to anyone wanting a dog sitter. Thanks Avalon 😊”

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs. My first dog being 8 when I was born and cared for her until she passed at 18. I have trained my 2 current dogs from puppies and continue to look after and educate them everyday, including my 13 year old shih-tzu (she mainly just like the treats) I currently work full time from home so i’m alone with my dogs 7-4 everyday of the week. Then after work me I take them for a walk every other day to the local footpath. I will be caring and walking your animals alone. I can easily obtain the correct environment for your pet and follow any precautions or routines you have for your pet. I would make sure to keep them safe and entertained and of course give them lots of attention.

About: I’ve owned horses for 14 years and have owned both cats and dogs. I currently live in my home with two rescue cats, Rocky & Otis. Both are friendly with other cats and dogs. I have experience cat and dog sitting for friends and family for around 6 years. I’m primarily available for pet sitting and other services on weekends and evenings, but I’m happy to discuss any requirements outside of this and can be flexible. I have my two cats at home which are friendly and are used to cats and dogs. If I have a pet boarding with me I’d prefer for them to be introduced before hand and to be good with cats. I have a fenced garden to the front and back of the house. I also have access to a private field.

About: Raised on a farm, I've had a lifelong passion for animals and love dogs. Your furry friend will receive love, care, and attention in a safe and welcoming environment. I work from home, ensuring constant supervision, multiple walks and play breaks. Living just 5 minutes from the beach, your pet will enjoy long walks along the coast, returning home happy and exhausted. As a work-from-home pet sitter and walker, I provide 24/7 care with constant supervision. Daily routines include beach walks, playtime, and training. Your pet enjoys a stress-free environment with regular updates. Living near the beach offers endless opportunities for fun and exercise, ensuring your pet is happy and well-cared for. I provide exceptional care in my animal and child-free home, offering a calm and safe environment for well-socialized dogs. With a secure, fenced yard, your pet can enjoy safe outdoor play and exercise. My focus is on creating a stress-free space where your furry friend feels loved, comfortable, and cared for. I ensure safe walks using sturdy leashes and treats to reinforce good behavior. I keep a safe distance from other dogs, adjusting routes if needed, and use voice commands to manage interactions. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority during our walks.

“Jodie was brilliant with our very excitable 3 month old cockapoo puppy! He's still very much in training and Jodie was great with him. It was the first time we had left him with someone else for an evening and he didn't even notice we'd gone! He was really relaxed when we came back and seemed to have a lovely time. Thanks, Jodie!”
