Super friendly, sent photos and a daily update of the cats after each visit which I loved and was really re-assuring as one of the cats is very anxious so I don’t like leaving them. One had been a bit unwell prior to the visits and Minx knew exactly how to monitor and keep her hydrated etc. Couldn’t recommend them both enough and will be using again. Thanks again both!

Amy was very friendly when she came to see us before the holiday and got to know about Bella and her needs. I knew she would be in good hands, Amy sent photos and videos regularly, which was reassuring. I came home to a well looked after Bella. I would be happy to have Amy look after her again.

About: Since I’ve been born I’ve always been around animals, that being dog and cats. I grew up with a husky and had him until he was 17, and I made the decision to get a little fur baby of my own Enzo. I have trained Enzo and he is now the most perfect little boy in the world. I have experience with other puppies and have had plenty of play dates with his best friend Archie who is currently 15 weeks old! Hi im Lauren, I work from home on Wednesdays and Thursdays so I am available every week both days & usually available most weekends. I am able do dog board at your home & dog walking/sitting I unfortunately don’t have the space at my house, but I am available to come to your home. I have my own dog so I am very aware of boundaries

Oh, where do I even begin with Katie? She's an absolute gem! I recently entrusted my beloved cats in her care for a two-week period, and let me tell you, I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. Not only did she keep them well-fed and entertained with toys and games, but she also went above and beyond to create a good atmosphere for them. Katie also kept me constantly updated. She would send me the most adorable pictures of my cats. I must admit, those snapshots were the highlight of my day, and they made me feel incredibly reassured that my furry friends were in the best hands possible. So, if you're looking for a pet sitter and you are a bit anxious as I was, Katie is your superhero. Her genuine love for animals and unwavering positive attitude make her an absolute treasure, she also took care of my plants ?❤️ Purrrfect pet sitter! ??‍⬛

About: I have 3 years of experience caring for my own cats and a lot of past experience with dogs. My career is caring for the elderly, I'd love some experience working professionally with animals to. I work approximately 5/6 hours spread across the day, and on varying days, so my schedule is very flexible and I should be available on most days. Offering boarding and walking services. Our cats are indoor cats so our doors are always locked to ensure there's no chance of them getting out. If security is a concern then we're an ideal location for your animal to board. All boarding dogs will be given as many walks as would be typical in the timeframe, and all cats will be given sufficient play time throughout also.

About: I, Lulu (Lydia), will be caring for your pets either by myself or with my partner, Eve. We have tons of experience caring for other people's pets and animals and have been consistently home and pet sitting for 4 years now! This year has proved how much we enjoy caring for animals and has made us very adaptable to different types of homes and pets. We have 14 5* reviews on other pet-sitting websites and can provide references and reviews if needed. Our pet-sitting experience has been in the UK and USA. Lulu - I grew up close to my family's farm and have had many pets. I love caring for animals, but we can't commit to having any of our own just yet as we are awaiting our green cards and plan to move to the US in a couple of years. My experience caring for animals includes feeding, walking + playing, cleaning up after them, occasionally administrating medication and, of course, loving them! Eve- I grew up with dogs and cats. I love spending time with animals, and my experience caring for them includes feeding, walking + playing, cleaning up after them, occasionally administrating medication and, of course, loving them too! Pet care fits in perfectly with our routine. I am a student studying at The Open University, so I am extremely flexible, and Eve works from home too. We have found that we always spend A LOT of time with the animals we care for and love it. Our lifestyle means we can be available any time/day and can stick to the owner's routine. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always our top priority. Our home is secure, with a fully enclosed yard for safe outdoor time. When we care for pets in their own homes, we stick closely to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. We’re very attentive to each pet’s individual needs, providing plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. We’re also happy to send regular photo and video updates, so you can feel fully at ease while you’re away - we know how much they’re missed! :)

About: I live with three cats and a large fish aquarium, and I grew up around dogs, so animals have always been a big part of my life. I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets in a loving home. I provide pet care alongside my gentle 3,5 year old daughter, which many owners find comforting and reassuring. Whether it’s cat cuddles, feeding routines, fish tank care or peaceful dog walks, I care for every animal as if they were my own. I work part-time a couple of nights a week, so I’m always available during the mornings and daytime for calm dog walks, pet sitting, or drop-in visits. I have a flexible routine and love spending my free time with animals, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. We are a calm and caring family who treat every animal with love and respect. I provide a clean, pet-safe environment and also offer drop-in visits, check-ins, feeding, and basic care in your home. My wife is very gentle and kind with animals, and our young daughter is already used to being calm and caring around pets. Whether your pet stays in their own familiar space or I come by for visits, you can trust they’ll be well looked after in a relaxed and loving atmosphere.

About: I have had both dogs and cats ever since I was a baby which means I have valuable experience of pet sitting. I have experience with many types of animals and there is no breed I dislike. I work full time currently, however my shifts are different each day so I always either have a full morning or all afternoon free with two full days off. Weekends the latest I finish is 3 so I always have time. I have a fenced garden and cctv. I have two dogs already who are great around other pets and I have a crate should it ever be needed.

About: I’ve had lots of pets since I was born from dogs and cats to lizards and rats. I have always loved being around animals, taking care of them and making them feel loved and comfortable :) Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life, I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, so my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walking, playtime, and cuddles. I’m used to early mornings, regular exercise, and keeping animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I’m passionate about working with animals and plan to make pet care my full time career. In my home or yours I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved as if they were my own. I provide a secure environment, regular feeding, fresh water, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep routines consistent and ensure each pet’s needs are met whether that’s special diets, medication, or extra snuggles.

Minx and Lewis are amazing cat sitters! They've looked after our boys several times now and each time they've cared for our boys like they are their own cats. Minx is very rapid with communication and keeps you updated with messages, pictures and videos. 100% recommend using them to take care of your pets.
