About: About me I am a dog lover from a child. I had my first dog when I was 6 which I adored he was a Black Lab cross Retriever. When I was a teenager we cared for many dogs at our acreage property. We had 3 dogs all up and many times took on others for friends and family. More recently we had a beatiful boxer cross bull dog that we inherited from my Dad. I have also pet sit for a friends West Highland Terrier, British Bull Dog and a neighbours Cavoodle. Some day sits and overnight. I am very flexible with my availability. Looking to help people with their furry friends. Also happy to help out with Cats have lived with a few over the years. I have been doing regular pet sitting in Australia through madpaws, whaggy whiskers grooming and doggy daycare and also Australian Housesitters since mid 2025 I am currently semi retired. Love to travel and play some Texas Holdem tournaments here and there and online so when I’m Pet sitting I can be fully available for your fur baby I only provide service in your home. I have done regular pet sitting for groomers, madpaws and Aussie Housesitters for the last 12 months and am now looking to live partially in the UK as I have dual citizenship.

“We highly recommended Sophie as a dog walker and sitter. We have a very anxious border collie who is a rescue. He has a slow burn with people and Sophie dealt with it like a champ. She started working with him the beginning of June, visiting him and working with him to build trust before taking him to the back garden and then eventually for walks and finally staying at our house for a full week to watch him without incident. Fair to say Murray loves Sophie and gave her lots of cuddles. Sophie has a very calm and kind demeanour that Murray took to right away. We will definitely book Sophie for all walks and pet sitting going forward.”

“As soon as I met Nicole I knew she was perfect to take care of our dog. Our boy is 12 years old, has a few health issues & loves the comfort & security of his own home so having someone to look after him at home was perfect. Nicole is very kind & caring & we knew Ted was her priority. She kept in touch with lots of lovely pictures & updates so we knew he was always ok. Nicole was also very respectful of our home & everything was perfect when we got back which was lovely. 100% we will definitely use Nicole again & can’t recommend her enough 🐾”

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.

“I could not have wished for a more caring, thoughtful and understanding person to look after my furbabies. I had daily pupdates with photos and my hormonal Shih Tzu was seduced by Giles and Holly turning into a big marshmallow. Monty fell in love the moment they walked through the door and Boris wants to be adopted by them. They get the highest praise possible, what a lovely couple.”

“Sarah was the perfect house dog sitter. Louie was relaxed and settled with her as evidenced by the photos she sent whilst we were away. As a bonus our home was immaculate when we returned. Sarah kindly started early and stayed late to accommodate our flights so Louie wasn’t left on his own too long . I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah.”

“George was really understanding about Phoebe's delicate nature, and loved and looked after her as I would do. He is an excellent house guest, and I would highly recommend him. I shall be booking George again when I next go away.”

“Jamie was great with Tinker and looked after her in my home at short notice. He kindly came over ahead of the sit to meet her etc. She clearly very relaxed and contented when we got home.”

About: I have a lifetime of experience with animals, especially dogs and cats, as I grew up with a highly intelligent German Shepherd who was my family. Since then, I’ve had the chance to care for many different breeds - Border Collies, Retrievers, Dachshunds, Samoyed, English Spaniels/Cocker Spaniels, Boston Terriers, Toy Poodles, Cockapoos, French Bulldogs, Mastiffs, Pomeranians, Goldendoodles, Wire Fox Terriers, Pugs, and of course Shepherds, as well as many cats, giving me years of hands-on pet care experience. I’ve also spent time walking and playing with dogs at a shelter (many wonderful mixed breeds), so I understand how to care for pets with different temperaments, energy levels, and needs. Since moving to the UK, I don’t have pets of my own yet, so it would be an absolute pleasure to care for yours! Whether it’s puppy care, playtime, walks, or simply keeping your pet company, I’m here to provide loving, attentive, and responsible care. I have a flexible schedule as I work from home, which allows me to be available any day of the week for pet care. Your pet will never be left alone for long, and I can easily adjust to their routine. I provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for pets, whether in my home or yours. I live on a farm with plenty of open space for dogs to walk, run, and play freely. If caring for pets in their owner's home, I ensure they feel secure and relaxed by sticking to their familiar routines, giving them plenty of attention, and making sure they are always well-fed, exercised, and cared for. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities! 🐾
