About: Over the last 4 decades I have loved and cared for a multitude of my own pets from cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, cockatiels, finches, fish and chickens. I have raised rabbits, cats and hens from babies.I have offered been the go to friend to take care of others pets, from taking care of cats, to walking dogs or caring for tortoise. Animals have always been an important part of my life. As I currently work part time and am also self employed I can offer more flexibility. As a pet owner I understand the importance of having the right person to love and take care of your pets when you're away, I can offer house sitting on the weekend and also school holidays and drop ins at other times. Pet friendly home where safety and happiness is paramount. As an energetic individual your pets would get the attention they need and would enjoy lovely walks and cuddles.

About: I began by independently fostering a pregnant cat who I rescued from the streets, providing housing and care throughout her pregnancy and raising her kittens to ensure their health and development. This experience led me to a role at an animal rescue, where I worked for approximately a year caring for rescue cats and dogs, managing all aspects of their care. A key part of this work involved confidence building, to ensure good quality of life. Consistent handling to help the animals feel secure and settle into their new environment. I’m currently working from home so I will be in your dogs/cats company for majority of the day. Typically I do a daily big walk for myself so this is something your dog can potentially join in on. I live in a small studio apartment in the country side with a large garden (not fenced in) lots of land surrounding me, and many nature walks. There are friendly dogs on the property which your dog can befriend depending on your preference for that.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have always loved caring for and learning about them. Over the years I’ve had many different animals of my own, and I currently have my little dog Kai, who is a very important part of my family. My love for animals has also been influenced by my dad’s work in wildlife conservation, so I’ve grown up with a real appreciation for animals and their individual needs. I’ve also had experience working in a veterinary practice, which I absolutely loved, and I’m now starting my training to become a Student Veterinary Nurse. I’m naturally very patient, gentle and attentive with animals, and I really enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I understand how much trust is involved in leaving your pet with someone else, so I’ll always treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. At the moment, I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to the animals in my care. I’m currently taking some time to focus on gaining more experience with animals before starting my training as a Student Veterinary Nurse. My days are generally quite flexible, so I can fit around your pet’s usual routine rather than expecting them to fit around mine. I enjoy getting outdoors, going for walks and spending time with animals, so pet sitting and dog walking is something I genuinely enjoy doing. I’m happy to discuss individual routines, feeding times, walks and any other requirements your pet may have, and I’ll always do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my biggest priorities. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big decision, so I’ll always take the time to understand their routine, personality, likes and any specific needs before looking after them. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment, and I’m also able to welcome pets into my home where appropriate. My own little dog is friendly and used to being around other animals, and I would always make sure any introductions are done carefully and at a pace that is comfortable for everyone. I’m responsible, attentive and safety-conscious, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and most importantly, I’ll treat your pet as one of my own.

“We haven’t been on holiday in four years and a big part of that was the dogs (two fenchies, one very reactive). Richard and Emma looked after them so well, sent daily updates of videos and photos so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The dogs absolutely fell in love and were sad when they left. I guess we need to book another holiday so the dogs can spend time with their new best friends 😊”

“We really couldn’t have asked for better cat sitters than Holly and Giles. We felt completely reassured knowing our rather nervous kitty was in such kind, capable and thoughtful hands. They kept us updated while we were away and clearly treated Olive with genuine care and affection rather than it just being a job. The fact that she joined them on the sofa for cuddles was a miracle! Coming home to an obviously happy, relaxed cat and the house so well looked after gave us complete peace of mind and meant we could properly enjoy our time away without worrying. We’re incredibly grateful to Holly and Giles and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring and professional pet sitters. Thank you so much!!!! 🐱💖🥰🐾🐾”

“Sarah was very lovely and responsive throughout her stay with our two boys. She sent lots of pictures and took our boys for day trips with her. I would definitely recommend using her, our boys had the best time with her 😊 we came back to our flat being very clean and tidy as well, we’ll definitely be using her again xx”

“George was a great comfort whilst looking after Cassie and Coral for us in our home. The dogs took to him immediately which always helps when you are leaving your dogs. When we came home, they were relaxed and seemed to have enjoyed their time with George. Highly recommended if you need someone to house sit with your fur baby.”
