“I cannot recommend Joao and his lovely partner Lara enough!!! I was so at ease on my holiday, they were so easy to communicate with and figured everything out themselves. They knew exactly how to take care of Moussey - I’ve returned home to a happy little baby who I know is missing them a lot! Hands down the best cat sitting I’ve experienced and will recommend to everyone I know! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”


About: I have 3 cats and a dog, so I am well versed in looking after both! I have a cat with no hair, another cat with an autoimmune condition that needs to be managed daily, another cat that uses our house like a hotel and dog that has high energy needs… I’m an expert when it comes to managing whatever you need for your pet (because I’ve already had to do it with my clan 🤣). I can look after your dog and they will be taken for walks / ball throws (or if they’re a couch potato, less activity) whatever suits them and their routine. If I look after your cat, they will be in a dedicated room with cat toys and beds + a dedicated cat tray and food bowls etc With me, I know how important it is to feel like you trust someone to love your pet as much as you and I will always have regular and open dialogue with you (pics / updates and anything else you need) If your pet needs meds, trust me, I am the ultimate expert in giving meds whether that be tables or liquids etc. any questions, please let me know and I’d be happy to help I work full time from home, I’m positioning myself as someone that can take in your dog or your cat into my home and provide them with constant care and affection. Your cat will be in the dedicated cat room while your dog will be with my cockapoo Dogs - will be kept with my cockapoo. I have fenced garden (with cameras) and a big green I can throw a ball for them for. Alternatively (depending on how active your dogs needs are) they will come on a daily walk with me and George (my dog) If your dog is elderly or less active, I can also accommodate that. Cat - if you need boarding for your cat, I have a dedicated cat room with toys and beds etc. I will continually monitor them throughout the day for all their needs to be met. I will give you regular updates (as many as you like) my aim is to have you not worry at all about your pet whilst you’re away Any Q’s please let me know

“I have used Sheena a few times now for drop in visits. She is excellent with my high energetic Labrador and has stayed far longer than 30 minutes on a few occasions. Very trustworthy and leaves detailed reports. Thank you.”

“Selda visited once a day to feed my one-year-old cat, Mabel, while I was away over Christmas, and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. From our first meeting when I handed over the house key, I was completely confident that Mabel was in safe and caring hands. While I was away, Selda sent regular photos and videos, and it was lovely to see how relaxed and happy Mabel was in her company. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Selda and will definitely be using her again. Thank you 🤗”
“Emily is a really lovely young lady with a calm manner. She came to meet Otis with a few bags of treats and won him (and us!) over immediately! She is very quick to respond to requests on Rover and was always on time and prepared to take care of Otis. We felt very comfortable and at ease leaving Otis is Emily’s care.”

About: I completely understand how stressful it can be to book a holiday or spend time away from home while worrying about who will care for your furry family member. I will provide your pet with all the love and care they would receive at home so you can relax knowing they are in safe hands. I have been looking after friends’ dogs and pets for many years while they are away on weekends or longer holidays abroad. It is something I have always found incredibly rewarding and fulfilling, which is why I decided to make it part of my career. This year, I completed a Dog First Aid course at Capel Manor College. I grew up with dogs, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow routines closely, keep owners updated, and make sure every pet settles in quickly so they feel secure and relaxed. I treat every animal as if they were my own and genuinely love having them around Our home is perfectly set up for pet care, with a large private garden, plenty of nearby parks and green spaces, and a peaceful indoor environment for naps and downtime. You tell me your pet’s routine, and I’ll stick to it while keeping you updated throughout their stay. We have a dwarf rabbit who lives in a separate room and free-roams around unless we have guests. The room remains closed when we have visiting pets, ensuring everyone stays safe and comfortable. We enjoy walks in beautiful local areas such as Whitewebbs Park and Forty Hall, as well as exploring other nearby parks and green spaces. If your dog is nervous around other dogs, that’s absolutely fine. I have the space to keep pets separate when needed and always give them the patience and reassurance they need to feel comfortable in their new surroundings. While you’re away, I will keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you never have to worry about how your pet is settling in, whether they’re eating well, or if they’re missing you. My aim is to give you complete peace of mind while making sure your pet feels happy, loved, and cared for every step of the way. My pet sitting schedule is designed to keep dogs comfortable, happy, and settled in their usual routine. As I work from home, dogs are rarely left alone and have plenty of companionship, supervision, and reassurance throughout the day. The day typically starts with a trip into the garden for a quick toilet break as soon as they wake up, followed by breakfast and some relaxed morning time. Dogs are welcome to join me on my daughter’s school run if suitable for them, giving them some gentle stimulation and company. Throughout the day, there is plenty of time for resting, relaxing, and naps to ensure they feel calm and at home. Around midday, I usually take dogs for a walk with time for play, ball catching, and exercise depending on their energy levels and preferences. Later in the afternoon, we head out again for the school pick-up walk. On weekends, we love exploring different parks, walking routes, and new areas, giving dogs plenty of opportunities for enrichment, sniffing, and adventure if they enjoy being active and outdoors. I always aim to stick closely to each dog’s normal routine and will happily adapt to their individual needs. If a dog prefers a quieter, less active day, I will absolutely accommodate their pace and preferences to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. Safety, trust, and creating a calm home environment are extremely important to me when caring for dogs. I have a secure fenced garden for safe outdoor time and always make sure doors are kept locked and windows are not left open to prevent any chance of escape. My home and garden are pet-friendly, and I do not keep any poisonous plants accessible to dogs. Dogs are treated as part of the family while staying with us and are free to relax comfortably around the home. I do not use kennels or cages unless this is specifically requested by the owner and is part of the dog’s normal routine. I work from home, so dogs receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My daughter is a teenager who absolutely loves animals and has grown up surrounded by pets, so she is very calm, gentle, and confident around dogs. My husband is also a huge dog lover, as is our son, who is currently at university but comes home frequently and has also grown up with pets all his life. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone else, so I provide daily updates along with photos and videos so owners can see their dog happy, settled, and enjoying their stay. VACCINATIONS: I want to make sure that doggies in my care remain healthy. I cannot look after guests that are not up-to-date with their vaccinations. On arrival I will require evidence that your furry familly member has been vaccinated for the following: • Distemper • Hepatitis • Leptospirosis • Canine Parvovirus • Bordetella (kennel cough) No pet will be admitted without proof of up-to-date vaccinations.
“Philippa was brilliant - excellent communication, regular updates with photos, and my cats seem much happier and calmer than other times I have been away. Cannot recommend enough :)”

About: I have had a range of different dogs and have always trained my own puppies to sit, stay, paw, rollover (some got it), toilet training, getting them slowly used to noises, ands to walk nicely. I able to walk dogs any days between 8.am and 5pm. I have a cocker spaniel that will come out on a few walks with me to. I have a fenced back garden for the dogs to play in and relax. Feeding when needed and fresh water available all day, I am used to giving medication and any cleaning of pets that is needed.
About: Grew up with animals and have always been a dog person. Now I have a Cavapoo puppy who I train myself and take care of. I work flexible hours (mostly) at home which allows me to have dedicated outside time with puppies. I generally am outside with my own puppy at least 3 times a day to give him fresh air. The entire property is fenced with a small section of the front yard separated from the main backyard. I have an indoor and outdoor office so I can be in either to be closer to the puppies (depending on where they are).

Whether your best friend needs a quick or regular walk or just a drop in for a cuddle, I’m here! I have hands on experience of looking after doggies of all sizes, breeds and personalities.

I have clear communication and will always provide you with regular updates so you know how your pup is doing! Availability: Weekdays and weekends.

This will ensure that you see how safe and comfortable your pet feels in my care.
About: I've been dog sitting for a couple of years and have grown up around dogs all my life, including owning my own. Being around dogs come naturally to me and I genuinely love spending time with them and caring for there needs. Whether its walks, playtime, feeding or simply keeping them company, I always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable and well loved whilst in my care! I currently work form home 3 days a week, with the other days being flexible. This gives me plenty of time to care for your dog! I can look after 2 dogs at a time. My house is spacious with a secure fenced garden. I live very close to lots of fields and great dog walking routes.

About: I’m a dedicated and passionate dog walker with over a year of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m currently studying Veterinary Medicine at the Royal Veterinary College (RVC), which gives me a strong understanding of animal health, behaviour, and welfare that I bring into every walk and interaction. Over the past year, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a wide variety of dogs, from energetic puppies to older dogs, as well as dogs with very different personalities and needs. I understand that every dog is an individual, and I always take the time to get to know their temperament, routines, boundaries, and preferences so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. What sets me apart is my veterinary background. As a vet student, I have a deeper understanding of canine health, body language, behaviour, and wellbeing, allowing me to be attentive to things that others may overlook. I’m confident recognising when a dog may be uncomfortable, stressed, unwell, or behaving differently from their normal self, and I always prioritise their safety and welfare. I take great pride in providing reliable, caring, and personalised pet care. My reviews on Bark reflect the trust and positive experiences I’ve built with the dogs and owners I’ve worked with. For me, dog walking isn’t simply a job — it’s something I genuinely love. I’m passionate about animals and treat every dog in my care as an individual, giving them the attention, patience, exercise, and affection they deserve. As a flexible veterinary student, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time during the week to pet care. I receive my university timetable well in advance, which means I can plan my schedule around your pet’s needs and make sure I can give them the time and attention they deserve. I’m happy to be flexible with the length and frequency of visits, whether your dog needs a shorter walk, several hours of company throughout the day, or regular care across multiple days. I can arrange my availability in advance with you, making it easy to find a routine that works for both you and your pet. My studies also mean that I understand how important consistency, routine, and individual care are for animals. I always aim to be reliable, organised, and accommodating when planning pet care. When caring for pets in their own home, my priority is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their familiar surroundings. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and individual needs, so I always take the time to follow the routine they are used to. I’m happy to provide everything from feeding and fresh water to walks, playtime, enrichment, companionship, and general care. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their space when they need some quiet time.

About: My Dalmatian, Jack went to the Rainbow Bridge 14 days before Christmas 2024. It broke me completely. I have had to say goodbye to many over the years, but there was something about Jack that left me reeling for months. Caring for a pet is one of life’s most rewarding responsibilities, offering unconditional love, companionship, joy and laughter. Pets are not just something that we own, they are part of our family and deserve all the love, respect and as much attention as possible. I am called Nanny Biscuits because all the dogs in my family know that I am going to give them loads of cuddles and doggy biscuits if they are allowed. I am aware that not all dogs are allowed to have treats for various reasons and I am very comfortable with that. Your wishes for your pet have to be respected. I have found that if I look after a pet in my home, it is good to have a blanket or item of clothing from you that has the familiar smell of you and the home the pet lives in. Comfort items boost emotional safety and comfort which every pet needs if they are in unfamiliar surroundings. I work full time, Monday - Friday. I work from home on a Monday and a Friday. My job does not give me annual leave, but we get "vacation time". I have 3 weeks off over Christmas. Two weeks off at Easter and a week off for Whitsun. I am available throughout the summer from the last working day in July until the first working day in October. I do have "vacation duty" for two weeks this September from 14th September - 21st September. I am happy to care for your pet in my home or yours, or, wherever you pet feels safe and comfortable. Morning, afternoon and evening walks are always on the agenda, I enjoy dog walking, and I am also content with a dog that does not need as much exercise as others.
“Very happy with Jamie's we got regular reports with pictures the cats warmed up to him fairly quickly my girl cat suzy is very scared of new people but she warmed up to jamie i would use him again if we go away”

About: I don’t just “walk” dogs. I pay attention to them. The nervous ones, the stubborn ones, the shy ones I get to know what makes each dog going . Walks aren’t rushed, they’re structured, calm, and built around your dog’s pace, personality, and little quirks. Whether that means extra sniff stops, a consistent route they feel safe on, or just someone who actually notices when something’s off—I’m on it. You get peace of mind knowing your dog is in steady, reliable hands. Your dog gets a walk that actually feels like theirs. I am currently offering my services during the day for dog walking , popins and short pet sitting , I am a full-time Monday through to sunday I always offer popins for small animals and exotic animals I care for pets in their home following their routine, structure making sure they are happy and healthy with walks, feeding and lots of cuddles and play . I am level 3 animals management qualified , dbs check and comfortable around large breeds . Looking to do boarding in the future

I truly love what I do and always want every pet to feel like they’re in a calm, happy, and caring home. I work full time Monday to Friday, but I’m available in the evenings as well as full weekends and overnight care.

Siobhan was great. Very quick in arranging a meeting to meet Olive and took on board all Olives quirks. She was patient with Olive, who is a very nervous cat and by day 3 Olive was coming out of her shell. It was a great peace of mind to know that Olive was being so well looked after
Philippa was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, took great care of my cat, and kept my home lovely and tidy while I was away. It was such a relief knowing my boy was happy, comfortable and in such capable hands. I came home to a very content cat and a clean, tidy house, which really says it all! I wouldn’t hesitate to book Philippa again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy and caring cat sitter. Thanks so much!

Absolutely amazing cat sitter! All four of my cats absolutely love Philip. Even my little ninja cat, who nobody ever sees, comes out for cuddles and strokes from Philip! It’s clear that he has a real way with cats, and I feel completely comfortable leaving them in his care. I will always use Philip and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic, trustworthy cat sitter. 🐾❤️

Selda visited once a day to feed my one-year-old cat, Mabel, while I was away over Christmas, and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. From our first meeting when I handed over the house key, I was completely confident that Mabel was in safe and caring hands. While I was away, Selda sent regular photos and videos, and it was lovely to see how relaxed and happy Mabel was in her company. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Selda and will definitely be using her again. Thank you 🤗
I booked Ash to look after my little girl, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Ash is incredibly warm, caring, and truly loves dogs. She treated my girl as if she were her own, and my dog bonded with her instantly. You can genuinely feel how patient, gentle, and trustworthy she is. Ash went above and beyond every single time — she was helpful, communicative, and always made sure my girl was happy, safe, and comfortable. They truly became like best friends. I’m so grateful to have found her. I highly, highly recommend Ash to anyone looking for someone loving, responsible, and amazing with dogs. She’s truly a gem.♥️♥️♥️

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
