House Sitting Broadland

“Joanna has been fantastic looking after our puppy and two cats. This was our first pet sitting experience and she was kind with answering all our questions and arranged a meet and greet ahead of time to meet our pets. She also asked what their routines are so she can follow them, including training. She has been sending us pictures regularly and did lots of walking and playing with them all. When we arrived home all our pets were really happy and content. We already booked Joanna for future pet sitting and dog walking! Would highly recommend.”

About: I've worked with animals in a variety of settings, including hospitals, kennels, rescues and zoological collections, and I hold qualifications in Animal Care, Animal Management and Animal Welfare. Over the years I've cared for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels and needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I focus on providing safe, reliable and enriching care tailored to the individual dog. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, companionship while you're away, or a little extra patience and understanding, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet before any booking so that you and your dog can get to know me and feel comfortable. I'm currently full time working as a dog walker and sitter, so I'm ready to work with you! Just drop me a message. I believe every pet deserves care that is safe, calm and tailored to their individual needs. Before any booking, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet so I can learn about your pet's routine, personality, likes, dislikes and any specific requirements. When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow your instructions carefully for feeding, medication (where appropriate), exercise, enrichment and any household preferences. I treat every home and pet with respect, keeping safety and wellbeing as my priority. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. With my background in Animal Care and Animal Welfare, I understand the importance of recognising stress signals, maintaining a safe environment and providing positive, compassionate care for every animal.

“Lianne was a nice friendly lady who stayed overnight and looked after my cat Bella. I was reassured with a photo and uptodate information. Would definitely ask her again”

“Grace cared for Jax in our home whilst we were away for a week. She was super attentive to his needs, we had some lovely updates each day and Jax had a great time. We will definitely be rebooking with you 😊”

“Allison has looked after Floyd a few times for me now. This time was VERY short notice but Allison was able to help. As usual good, clear communication to confirm arrangements and a picture of Floyd looking happy.”

About: I had my own pet sitting business based in Winchester pre-covid. I have looked after groups of up to 8 large dogs for weeks at a time and have always dog walked. I have my own dog which I share with an ex-partner therefore will be available during the times I am not looking after him. I currently work full time, however I have the freedom to work from home and manage my hours therefore I have time to stay at the property all day or pop back and forth should I need to attend the office. I drive and can manage any pet sitting jobs needed around the times of having my own dog. When staying at a pet owners home, ideally I want to stick to the same routine as you in order to now upset your pets in anyway, I am happy to discuss with you any routines and make sure I have clear feeding/medication instructions.

“We have a high energy dog who loves long walks and is interested in anything and everything! Karl was fully committed to that and our boy had plenty of walks and play time and we had regular pictures and videos showing him having a great time. Karl is organised and takes the job seriously - we felt confident right from the start to leave on holiday knowing that we had left our dog in good hands.”

“Saoirse was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Our little pup warmed to her beautifully. She even did the washing up for me after I left in a hurry. Kind, thoughtful, trustworthy and genuinely loves animals. Can’t thank you enough for restoring our faith. Would recommend 100%”

“We were attending a family wedding and our puppy had not been looked after by anybody other than family. Being unable to use them to dogsit we were therefore a little apprehensive. However after having a phone call with Steffi we felt very confident and this was backed up by the fantastic job she did looking after Enzo. Steffi made sure that she understood everything that was required including feeding time table and walk requirements. Enzo obviously enjoyed being looked after by her. Steffi was very flexible and was able to come 15mins early at short notice due to a slight change in the timetable. Steffi's communication was excellent while she was looking after Enzo and we were sent regular pupdates with photographs. We would have no hesitation in highly recommending Steffi to dog sit.”

“After meeting and chatting with Oscar initially, we felt he had the right experience and attitude, and demonstrated an instant connection with our furry family members. When we returned home, all was well: our four-legged lovelies were happy and calm; the house was very clean and tidy. The only thing that could have been improved was Oscar sending regular updates whilst we were away. Not that we had any worries, this is just something we had asked for and have got used to over the years. We would still recommend Oscar beyond a shadow of a doubt.”

“Imogen is an excellent house sitter. She is conscientious and clearly passionate about animals. She took the time to fully understand what was required to care for our three pets and kept me informed throughout. Imogen is self sufficient, tidy and reliable. I’d have no hesitation recommending Imogen to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

Grace P.

“Very very pleased indeed with Alice looking after our two manic dogs for a week. She came over to meet them a few days beforehand and while she was here sent regular updates on their wellbeing and behaviour along with pictures. I am sure the house was cleaner and tidier when I returned than it was when I left. Thoroughly recommended”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life from Dachshunds and terriers through to rescues and Labradors. I’ve recently retired and lost my companion Charlie so I’m hoping to invest my love in your precious one now. I’m recently retired so expect to spend all day with your pet, making them part of my life while they are with me. I live in a city centre maisonette and have a small secure outside space for fresh air, but there are also parks near me and all the smells and excitement of the city. I follow whatever exercise routine and rules you have at home. Pets can come on the sofa for cuddles if you allow that, and can either sleep downstairs or upstairs on the bed with me.

About: I have loved dogs in all shapes and sizes ever since my family first got a golden retriever. I have since dog sit friends' dogs from time to time, and I love getting to know new dogs and all their unique personalities. I also enjoy going for long walks and playing with dogs, so if your fur ball needs plenty of exercise, I'm your sitter. I'm currently a part-time freelancer working from home, meaning I am flexible with times and am happy to look after your pet in your home for longer periods. I'm currently working as a part time freelancer, so I'm very flexible. I'm happy to bring my freelance work to your place if you need someone to stay full time with your pet. I'm very attentive to your pet's needs and the safety measures you will have to keep them healthy and happy. In case of emergency, I will make sure they are taken to the vet.

“Darren was so good with Ralph and made going away for four days so easy and relaxing. We may have had an issue with Darren staying at our place but he was so accommodating and would of taken Ralph to board with him if we needed. Luckily we didn’t and Darren was great - very knowledgable, excellent communication and reassuring. Ralph has a great time and we felt very relaxed the whole holiday ☺️”

About: Hello I am 40-something year old Lynsey :) If you're searching for a dog walker who is absolutely dedicated to providing exceptional care and looking after your fluffy friend like it is my own then look no further! Due to a recent change in life circumstances I now find myself able to revisit one of my passions and one I undertook for a number of years of walking and caring for your dog. Since 2009 I have walked, cared for and boarded dogs for a large number of family members and friends. Breeds I have cared for and walked over a significant period of time include Bull Mastiff, GSD, Golden Retriever, Working Cocker Spaniel, Daschunds and Patterdale Terrier. Between 2011 and 2015 I was a volunteer dog walker for my local RSPCA Branch near Dereham in Norfolk and was lucky enough to walk a huge variety of breeds regularly including huskies, mixed breed rescues, Staffies, Labradors, puppies and many more! I have home boarded Daschunds and a Patterdale Terrier for family members. I love the outdoors and am happy to brave it in all weathers to keep your furry family member happy! I love dogs but am sadly in a situation where I cannot own one of my own but will love your pet like it belongs to me. I am currently working part-time building a business so can dog walk flexibly depending on yours and your beautiful furry family member's needs during the week. I am a trustworthy and competent woman who will respect your home like my own whilst caring for your beautiful furry family member. I have cared for dogs in owners' homes many times.

“Cara helped us out of a jam with last minute cover. She was quick to respond to messages. She was prompt arriving. Respectful to our home. And great with Dylan. We can't wait to book her again.”

“Jez was a fantastic dog sitter. We had him stay for a few days at our flat with our two pups. Both are big dogs with lots of quirks and Jez handled them in stride, including giving them both their medicine (not always an easy task!). We felt at ease knowing he was with them, and would definitely book again/recommend to others! Thanks Jez!”

“Cherie took wonderful care of Minty, my elderly Border Collie yesterday. She is naturally calm and has a natural affinity with dogs. And, judging by the lovely photo of Minty having an afternoon nap, completely relaxed in her company, he really enjoyed his time with her too!”

“Sepideh is a dream cat sitter. She kept my Zinnia very happy and safe. Plus, she sent me lots of photos and updates. She was flexible, communicative and very friendly. Would 100% recommend and rebook. Thank you!”
