Top-rated Brighton house sitters
“Balbina was amazing with Willow for the week we were gone. She communicated well, and I appreciated all the updates we got throughout the week. I also appreciated that she cleaned up our cottage before leaving. Willow seems to have an amazing time with Balbina, so we will be booking her again!”


“Kei was extremely friendly, attentive and respectful to our property. He was very happy to administer medication to our dog which entailed getting up early and going to bed late. Sent us photos and video clips which kept us reassured. Never used this service before but would definitely recommend Kei and will be using him again. Thanks again Kei. Rod & Nicky”


“Jordan has taken great care of Sophie and left the house spotless every time! We got lots of communication and updates which is crucial when we’re away just for ease of mind - would definitely recommend him!”


“I cannot recommend James enough 10/10 My dog Paul is a rescue and sometimes has some challenging behaviour. (Mostly silly half hours!) but he is a lovable, boisterous rogue!!

Absolute super star 🌟 Thank you 🙏 so much James from me and Paul x”

About: With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I offer safe, reliable sitting in a calm home environment. From long walks to belly rubs and medication if needed, your dog will be treated like family while you're away. I work from home during the week, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I provide calm, reliable care tailored to your pet’s needs—whether it’s walks, playtime, medications, or just a cozy presence. I have a small, secure back garden for safe outdoor time, plus comfy dog beds, toys, and a calm environment where your dog is welcome anywhere in my home.

“Oliwia was wonderful looking after Frida! My gal isn’t very easy going, but I had great updates all weekend and came home to a very chill and happy dog! Oliwia left my flat so clean and tidy 💓”


“For Marta’s third dog sitting sesh (second four hour visit) she continued to go at my nervous rescue’s pace and comfort level. And after being slow and patient, she had success getting the harness on and getting Sookie out for a walk. Hooray! Very pleased with her reliability, communication and treatment/care of my pooch, and will be a regular sitter for me going forward. Especially as Sookie seems to be warming to her well.”


“Henny has been particularly nervous recently due to his hormones, and Markéta came over with such a positive and calming energy, I felt super relaxed leaving him and I came home to a happy sleepy puppy. Markéta is so polite and respectful, I couldn't recommend her enough! 🌞”


“Our senior dog had a great time with Jaz. She was easy to coordinate with for an initial meet and for the house sitting. We loved getting lots of photos and updates while we were away and she was very considerate of our space and went above any beyond in terms of tidying up. You can book with confidence knowing your precious four-legger is in capable hands.”


“Sam was excellent. We'll definitely be using him again.”


“Molly arrived punctually, at short notice, and we immediately felt at ease leaving her with our dog in our home as, despite the house being full of people when she arrived, she went straight for the dog! She has been communicative and helpful and we would definitely recommend her :)”


“Having known Az a few years I was so happy to see him here on Rover and knew immediately we'd feel at ease leaving our cat, dog and house in his care. Our dog needs extra care as he's got weak legs and our cat is a bit of a character but Az looked after both amazingly and we came home to two very happy, chilled pets! Thanks Az!”


“Maeve is, without a doubt, the best dog sitter we have ever had—and Darcie wholeheartedly agrees! She is a shining example of what a dedicated, trustworthy, and reliable dog sitter should be. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her. Maeve has been consistently punctual, reliable, and respectful in all her interactions. She is not only polite and professional but also incredibly kind and friendly to all of us, including Darcie. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares for our dog, and we are so grateful for the love and attention she gives her during every visit. Her flexibility and understanding have made arranging services with her a breeze, and her communication is always warm and accommodating. Maeve has gone above and beyond in making sure Darcie is happy and cared for—and we couldn’t ask for more. We wholeheartedly recommend Maeve to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional dog sitter. She truly deserves the highest recognition for the amazing care she provides. Thank you for everything, Maeve!”


“Diana was very thoughtful and attentive. I knew instantly that Enzo was in safe hands and I was proved right when I returned home to find him fast asleep. It was a pleasure to have you in my home and Enzo has already asked when he’s next seeing you.”


“Flora looked after Saffy for an evening at our home whilst we were out for dinner. She was absolutely lovely and Saffy adored her immediately. I received an update and photos to let me know all was well, and came back to a very happy pup. We’ll definitely be using Flora again! Thanks so much :)”
