“Toni was brilliant with Mika. She kept us up-to-date, lots of info and sent photos. Mika is very nervous but Toni understood that and tried to make her feel secure. We would book her again if she is available. Thanks Toni”


About: I’m an experienced and attentive pet caregiver who’s comfortable with a wide range of animals. I’ve cared for dogs recovering from surgery, provided regular walks, and given extra attention when needed. I also have extensive experience with cats—both healthy and those needing special care—as well as rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters. Whether your pet needs medical support, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m here to help them feel safe and loved.

I’m available Monday through Friday and on weekends, so I can easily accommodate your needs—whether it’s daily care, last-minute drop-ins, or just a quick walk around the block. I’m here to make your life easier and keep your pets happy and safe. I’m happy to care for your pet in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest and most at ease. I understand how important routine is—sudden changes can be stressful for pets, and I’m here to help maintain their normal schedule so they stay relaxed, happy, and well-cared for.

“Zuzanna was absolutely incredible with our three cats – we honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better! 💕 From the moment she came to meet them, we could see how gentle and kind she was, and all three took to her so quickly (which never usually happens!). While we were away, she sent us regular updates and the cutest photos that completely put our minds at ease. It was such a relief knowing they were in such loving hands. We came home to three very content kitties and a spotless house – she really went above and beyond. You can tell Zuzanna truly cares, and it meant the world to know our fur babies were so well looked after. We’d book her again in a heartbeat – she’s absolutely amazing! 🐾🐱💗”


“Becca made our first time using the app a breeze, she is super professional, timely and wonderful with animals. She updated us daily with lots of pictures and a thorough debrief on his wellbeing. She went out of her way to establish a bond with him and help him when he wasn't eating. Highly recommend, we will be using her again, everytime! Thanks so much Becca :)”


“Maizie was great! She came around to meet me and Miso before the first visit and was great with him. I had regular updates and felt very reassured knowing miso was being checked in on by Maizie and well looked after. Maizie even hoovered up bits of litter to keep the house clean and tidy! Would definitely book Maizie again”


About: Growing up in a house with a animal loving family, i have always been surround by Dogs, Cats, Horses and rabbits, I have experience with Dogs ranging from French Bulldogs to Great Danes Key Experience: Working with Dogs that may require special needs and have disabilities. This comes from looking after rescued Frenchie's on multiple occasions, all having their own unique requirements Working with Dogs that may require a few more precautions or are reactive. Having grown up with a few reactive dogs from a younger age I have a good knowledge on how to handle certain situations I currently work 9 - 5:30 in Bolton I'm free most evenings and weekends for dog walking . I am also available to house sit if preferred ! I have a fenced off garden with plenty of room, and a specious house. I also live a few minute walk from large fields and parks

“Scott was super nice! It was the first time we used the app and we were very scared but from the beginning it gave us a lot of confidence! He sent us photos of Boris and he gave us the report. I will definitely book with him again! ??”


About: Hi👋 My name is Charlotte and I have a twelve year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier called Padfoot :) I am a volunteer dog walker at my local animal sanctuary (Bleakholt) but haven't been able to visit much due to COVID. I am a lover of all animals but dogs are definitely my weak spot (I'm obsessed, to say the least)! My own boy can be dog reactive when out on a lead so I am experienced and comfortable dealing with any dogs that have similar issues. I welcome all breeds, all sizes and all ages. High energy temperament dogs do not bother me in the slightest either (in fact, I love it)! Your pet will definitely be in safe hands with me- and you'll probably even end up getting some cute photos of them, too!📸 I work permanent nights- five days a week. Therefore, I am always available during the day time to walk your fur babies when you aren't able to :) Unfortunately I am not able to take care of any pets in my own home due to having a dog myself that doesn't like other animals. I work permanent nights, so I am always available in the day time for your fur-babies! I may just sometimes be a little sleep-deprived (lol)! I unfortunately do not offer home boarding at the moment, due to having a reactive dog of my own. I'm always happy to come to you, though :)

About: I've had dogs throughout my life, primarily larger breeds (German shepherds, bull mastiffs), and in recent years have taken on dog sitting roles from friends and colleagues for medium to large breed dogs. Enthusiastic about getting 15,000 steps a day, and where possible, will take dogs out for long runs with me. I work fully remote and flexiblly, so I am home most of the time and always looking for a companion to hang out with. I have lots of free time throughout the day for long walks, garden breaks and cuddles on the sofa. I have a fully fenced garden and secure house, and have previously worked with dogs requiring muzzles and other safety equipment, as well as larger, anxious dogs.

About: I have often cared for doggies and cats of many kinds, for neighbours so walking, feeding, bathing and caring for them is something I have always enjoyed within my life. I am also looking to expand my experiences with different pets, and make more memories. I am currently a university student, at The University of Central Lancashire. I always have plenty of time to care for pets in the evenings, whether that be walking or caring for them for a set period of time. I am able to take on roles and accommodate them across Greater Manchester, due to having a student dorm in Preston and then my family home in Heywood. Although not having a pet myself currently, I did have a Yorkshire terrier who has unfortunately passed. Benji will always hold a place in my heart. My home and neighbourhood is very pet friendly. My home is large, with plenty space for pets to explore and not only my garden but many fields across the road where the pet may play.

About: I’ve always loved animals! Our family dog was my best friend growing up. I now regularly look after my dad’s dog, who I helped train from a puppy. I often help my friends out looking after their dogs, most recently an adorable whippet puppy for the weekend. I love taking dogs for walks in Heaton park, Phillips park, and spring water park, which are all near my home. We have now rescued a husky x malamute cross called Teddy! He’s been with us since November and has settled in so well. He loves the company of other dogs and is great at sharing his house and treats with other dogs 😊 I work from home so am in the house most of the time. During the week I would do a short walk in the morning before work, long walk on my lunch break and if am available for another walk after work if the dog wants to go out again I have a fenced, secure yard. We have puppy proofed the downstairs of our home so there is nothing small to swallow or dangerous to chew etc. I have space for a crate if the dog has one.

“Alex is very patient and kind with our excitable dog, and he settled very quickly with her. She's also been super responsive to any messages, and been able to do all the dates we've needed, which is great for our doggo, as he only needs to get used to one new person visiting. Would definitely recommend!”


About: I have had dogs for 17 years starting with a RSPCA foster Dalmatian called Lucky who had to be medicated daily on Metacam for his Arthritis. As part of my volunteering at the RSPCA i was involved with dog walking, feeding inc medications where applicable, assisting vacinations/microchips/healthchecks etc. I got to see Neutering and help on the Welfare Van. I currently have a 12month old little Chihuahua. I am available 7 days a week 24 hours a day 365 days a year including overnight and extended stays both at home and away from home for events, holidays etc. Free Meet and Greet to ensure a good fit and then just treating them as my own. If nervous dog etc I can arrange things around them.

About: I have had dogs all my life, we currently have 2 dogs of our own. Honey is a 3 year old Cavapoo and Reggie is a 1 year old cavapoo. Both our pooches have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and are friendly with other dogs. I work as a Teaching Assistant in a specialist High School so I'm available for boarding Fridays and Saturdays and school holidays. I may be able to offer other hours on request. I have had dogs all my life and currently have 3 of my own who we love to bits, I live with my 17 year old daughter and my 12 year old son who also share my love of dogs. We are passionate about giving your pets the best care in a safe and loving environment whilst in our care. We have a fenced back yard and a field across the road. There is a large park with woodland just a 5 minute walk away where we can exercise all dogs in our care. We have water available all the time as well as toys and beds for your pooches to relax. Your pet will be treated like our own whilst in our care and we are happy for them to relax on the sofas with us for plenty of cuddles.

About: I have recently gained my level 5 pet care qualification alongside canine first aid. I have two dogs who are both rescued, I have always had cats and dogs since being young. I do pet care as a full time job, this may include drop ins once or twice daily, 30 minute walks, play and company for the duration of time iam with your pet. I care for pets in your home, my transport is discreet and does not have any logos on it. I provide meet and greets which will enable me to obtain instructions from pet owners on your pet's daily routine

About: I offer intimate group walks of no more than 4 dogs, to give your pet the fuss and attention they deserve. Solo walks. Drop Ins while your out and transportation when you need it. I am a full time Dog Walker and Pet Carer. Also a dog and cat owner myself. I will treat your pets how I’d like you to treat mine! Reliable care for busy owners. I can give your pet the love and attention they deserve! Intimate group walks and fun filled solo walks to get tails wagging.

About: Since my family got our first dog when I was 11, I have cared for dogs through all stages of life, from a newborn puppy no bigger than my hand to the final trip to the vets. In this time I have become well acquainted with a wide range of specific scenarios and needs, including: — gestating and whelping dogs; — senior dogs, particularly those with cognitive disorders, sensory impairments, and arthritis; — working breeds and their unique relationships to pet parents and handlers; — bonded dogs (e.g. parent and pup living together); — reactive or anxious dogs; — dogs with medical needs, including regular medication, and surgical wounds; and many more! Where possible I use biodegradable poo bags, environmentally-friendly and B-corp certified cleaning supplies, bamboo fibre towels, and high quality treats made with free-range or game meats. I keep to hand a selection of treats including pheasant, liver, salmon, and sweet potato based treats, but if your pet has a specific preference then do let me know and I’ll get that in stock for them! In all cases I focus on positive reinforcement and ethical treatment to ensure the happiness and safety of your pet and those around them. I carry a water bottle, dog First Aid Kit, and fully charged phone (or a PLB in remote areas) and I will soon be refreshing my dog first aid skills. I am currently working part time, and outside of that I am completely free to give your pet my full attention, whether that’s engaging walks, puppy play time, or simply getting your elderly dog out for a sniffari along the street. I carry a dog First Aid Kit, and a bottle of fresh water on all walks as well as means of communication for emergencies or if you simply need to get in touch. Nothing will be given to your pet without your agreement. I will generally use any toys, blankets, treats, food, shampoos etc. you would normally use in the home for home visits, unless you request otherwise. For walks, I can use as much or as little of your dog’s own things as you like but I will always have a few toys on hand, a selection of treats (you can choose ahead of time what you would and wouldn’t like your dog to have), and a little bottle of Faith in Nature Dog Shampoo in case things get really mucky! You set the tone, and I’ll let your dog set the pace!

About: I have 20 years personal experience owning dogs. From Spaniels to JRT’s and currently own a Saluki rocket! I had 7 cat siblings growing up and our Saluki is fine around them. I have now added a snake to our menagerie so have some reptile experience, combined with the experience from owning a gecko when younger. We absolutely adore animals, hoping to expand our family with a goat and some ducks once we have the space. Spooky the Saluki is really friendly, loves the chase and a good snuggle so we’ve signed up so he can make some new friends whilst indulging our love of animals! I will be undertaking a grooming course plus pet first aid in August I work full-time from home 3 days a week and home most weekends. Evenings are our busiest time in the house between 4pm - 10pm. Extremely flexible work life so can be home if necessary. We go for morning walks and evening walks in the week. Weekends usually include a long walk around the area or a day trip. For home-sitting I follow any routines and requirements already in place. If you crate or follow a specific schedule I can follow to suit. I can also follow their routine when boarding to minimise any stress. Spooky has free reign of the house and access to beds and furniture and all guests will too unless not preferred.

“Shelley at little pet paws service is honestly one of the most naturally caring people Iv come across! All the pet sitters in my area only care for dogs but I desperately needed someone to check in on my cat while I work very long shifts, I reached out and she was so reassuring! She arrived at the agreed times, fed my cat, sent pictures of her playing with him, let him outside for some exercise and made sure she left my home secure! It’s such a peace of mind knowing someone who actually cares for animals is going and looking after them! I would highly recommend her to anyone with pets! Wether you need some to do drop in visit or take your pooch for a walk I’d really recommend Shelley!”
