House Sitting in Bromsgrove

“Kimberley came for a previsit to meet with Brian and ensure he was okay with her as it was the first time we had left him with a sitter. Although cautious, it didn't take long for him to warm up to her. When we left, the regular updates were very welcome and provided the reassurance we needed that all was well at home. We appreciated Kimberly's experience and familiarity with collies and their needs. We returned to a very happy and content boy who she also worked on training with and we have certainly noticed the difference with him. We truly feel she helped our make out time away possible, with having one less to worry about. Brian loves her and we would definitely have no hesitation of using kimberely again in the future.”

“Cannot recommend Andrew enough! We were so anxious about leaving Ralph as we had never left him with someone he doesn’t know before however, Andrew was amazing and put our minds at ease. He came to visit us before to get to know Ralph and understand his needs and on the day Andrew kept us fully updated with photos, details of how Ralph was, how he was eating, walking, sleeping etc and we couldn’t be more thankful for that! Ralph really settled with Andrew and I would highly recommend him to anyone! Thank you so much!”

“Yangyi was very punctual and our dog Fudge took to her straight away which is always a good sign. She sent me photos of Fudge throughout the evening and Fudge was very relaxed and happy in her company. She is a rescue and has separation anxiety but Yangyi was very calming and reassuring to her and we are very happy to use Yangyi again if we need a dog sitter. This was a very last minute request so we were very lucky that Yangyi could help at such short notice. Highly recommend Yangyi to anyone needing a sitter.”

“Melissa was absolutely wonderful with our sausage dog! She came to our home, which made everything so much easier and less stressful for our pup. He seemed very happy and relaxed after spending time with her. It’s clear she has a genuine love for animals. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend her!”

“Alice looked after our terrier Luna as a house sitter for four nights. It was the first time we’d left Luna, so we were very keen to find the right person. Alice was fabulous, keeping us updated with messages & photos each day. It was obvious that Luna had a lovely time whilst we were away. We will definitely ask Alice to dog sit for us again. We thoroughly recommend Alice.”

“Winnie has never been left overnight before so we were understandably a little anxious. We neednt have been as Gabby was patient and kind to her and within 24hrs she has settled in and was playing and enjoying her walks. Gabby sent at least a daily update with photos and we were confident at all times she was being well looked after . Many thanks Gabby ?”

“George and Sophie looked after our cockapoo Barney recently and I must say they were both so friendly and caring . They welcomed Barney into their home and took the time to find out his usual routine . Barney is quite a nervous dog and they made him feel at ease. George kept us updated throughout his stay and provided us with photos which reassured us . We will definitely be asking George and Sophie to care for Barney again and would highly recommend .”

About: Growing up with dogs and personally raising a Border Terrier and a French Bulldog has given me a deep understanding of the special bond between pet and owner. Caring for my elderly Border Terrier, Maisie, taught me the importance of consistency, especially when administering medication. It was essential to make this process stress-free for her, so I introduced a reward system that not only ensured she took her medication but also made it a positive experience for both of us. My French Bulldog, Bella, is a bundle of energy who loves to play, so I’ve developed creative, stimulating games to keep her active and happy. I know how important it is to tailor care to each dog’s unique needs. I’m passionate about providing the care, attention, and love every dog deserves. Whether it’s a fun walk, a delicious meal, or quality cuddle time, I’m committed to making sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and healthy. You can rest assured that your dog will receive top-notch care, comfort, and companionship while you’re away. I provide seamless, dependable pet care that fits into my daily routine, ensuring your pet receives consistent attention and love throughout the week. Whether you need a quick check-in or extended care, I’m happy to tailor my services to your needs. To make sure we’re the perfect match, I always offer a meet-and-greet before booking. This way, we can ensure you feel confident and comfortable leaving your dog in my care. Your dog will feel right at home with me! I have a spacious, fully fenced yard and a friendly, playful French Bulldog who loves company. I’ll create a fun and stimulating environment where your dog can stay active, happy, and relaxed. Whether it’s playing in the yard or cuddling up, I’m committed to making sure your fur baby feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away

About: I come from an animal loving family. I grew up with a mum who would take in any stray or poorly animal she seen. I have looked after all types of animals from dogs and kittens to ducks and rabbits. We have always had a dog in the family - boxers, chihuahuas and beagles. I work full time and I work from home. My job is very flexible so I have a lot of time in between working to show my fur baby lots of love! I have a fenced garden. My fur baby (cat) is an outdoor cat so he comes and goes as he pleases. I have plenty of space so able to crate if needed. My fur baby is a lover of cats and dogs, he has many friends from around the area who come to visit him and play. As he is an outdoor cat he can be kept away from your dog or cat if needed.

About: I have over five years of experience caring for dogs, including my family dog, Rex, whom I miss dearly since moving from Italy. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and always treat them as if they were my own. With Rex, I took care of everything from daily walks and feeding to grooming, cuddles, and playtime. I know how important it is to give pets not only physical care but also love, attention, and mental stimulation. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and cherished while their owners are away. I work in a hybrid role, which gives me the flexibility to take dogs for a walk before work, during my lunch break, and after work. This means I can provide consistent care and regular outdoor time throughout the day. On days I work from home, I’m available for more frequent check-ins, play sessions, and cuddles, ensuring pets are never left alone for long. I respect the owner’s home and space, following all agreed routines and house rules. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, care, and love. Safety is my top priority — I ensure pets are secure indoors, properly leashed outdoors, and never left in unsafe situations. I’m also mindful of keeping their environment clean, comfortable, and stress-free.

“Shania stepped in during the course of our summer holiday, our usual sitter was only available for the first 10 days of our trip which left 4 to be covered. I feel taking over from someone else, on your first stay with a new dog more of a challenge than a normal sit, Shania met this with confidence and quality. We cannot thank Shania enough for her support, our dog Paisley is no easy dog she suffers with anxiety, is on medication and has a training program in place, all of which did not phase Shania. She communicated with us beautifully during the sit and we had a 6 hour time difference to consider but again met with ease. Upon returning home, Shania was there to greet us and hand back over, the bond that she had developed with Paisley was evident. HIGHLY RECCOMEND.”

About: I have had a dog my entire life and have an understanding of how to bond with dogs and learn to understand their individual personalities! I am a very patient person who will always put others needs before my own. I cannot wait to meet your four legged companions :) xx I am currently available Monday to Sunday in the mornings and afternoons. I am awaiting to start my job in the NHS, which I will fit this around when the time comes. When walking any dog I ensure to always have them on a lead with a harness. Of course there will treats in my pocket at all times to encourage good behavior.
