“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 I had such a great experience with Alexandria! She was incredibly informative and taught me things about my puppy that I didn’t even know. Her knowledge and confidence really put me at ease. She was amazing with my dog , so patient, caring, and attentive. While I was out, she kept me constantly updated with pictures and messages, which I really appreciated. It made me feel like my pup was in the best hands. Highly recommend Alexandria to anyone looking for someone reliable and truly passionate about animals!”


About: We are compassionate pet sitters, we are experienced at caring for furry family members of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to nursing older pets in their final days and following complicated surgical procedures. We have had pets our entire lives and can provide personalised care tailored to each pet's unique needs. We will prioritise the well-being and happiness of every animal entrusted to our care. Whether it's cuddle time with an older cat, or playtime with a lively puppy, we have done it. We have also nurtured a nervous and rescued pet. We have nursed both cats and dogs following surgical procedures and are dedicated to creating a safe and loving atmosphere where pets thrive. We have recently lost our last dog, at the age of 16 and although we are missing him, we do not feel ready to just 'replace' him. We are therefore really looking forward to sharing our lives with other peoples pets, we live is a calm and peaceful household but have also known the fun chaos of having 3 children (now grown and gone) and at one point 3 dogs and 2 cats...and chickens plus a pond full of fish We have a secure back garden and will very soon be retiring so that we will be able to spend all day, every day looking after your animals! Working as a couple allows us to fully commit to caring for your pet as we can be flexible and work around other commitments as a team. About to be retired, so we will have a completely free schedule ready to look after your animals and take them on all the walks they need Safe home, enclosed garden, gated garden with drive- our house is very pet friendly. We will welcome your pets with open arms whenever you need.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with two amazing dogs of my own who mean the absolute world to me. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I truly adore them — they’re my biggest weakness! When your dog is with me, they’ll be treated like family. I’ll make sure they feel completely at home, with lots of cuddles, attention, and playtime. Whether it’s a chilled-out day or an active adventure, I’ll tailor the experience to your dog’s personality and needs. You can enjoy your time away knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and getting the best care possible — just like I’d want for my own. I’d also like you to know that I will completely respect your house whilst your away, any rules you have please tell me, if you’ve got plants i’ll water them etc. Feel free to message me with any questions or special requests. I can’t wait to meet your pup! The images on my bio show a number of dogs i’ve had the pleasure to either own as a pet, take on walks and dog sit. I’m currently doing an apprenticeship in engineering so my job requires me to work Monday-Thursdays. This is good because i’m available Fridays-Sundays which is great for a little weekend getaway! I have a car so don’t worry if you’re difficult to get too, i don’t mind. This also means i can take your dog to the best spots for walks and adventures! Weekends are definitely preffered I care for pets in their own home where they feel safest and happiest. I stick to their routine, give them loads of love, cuddles, and playtime. All you need to do is tell me what their specific needs are and they will be met!

“Scott was absolutely fab with our pup Beabee. He kept us up to date all the time with pics and texts. He understood all my worries and was super respectful in our home. Beabee was content and clearly liked her home holiday with Scott 😊”


“Thank you so much for looking after Rosie and Ethel, if it wasn’t for you we would have had to cut our holiday short as the minder we had left our dogs with had left them all day and last minute I contacted Christia while away and explained the situation and she took over and sent us pictures and videos and the house was lovely and clean and even washed bedding and towels which she didn’t have to do. I would recommend her to everyone now and definitely be in touch soon. Thank you so much x”


“Lots of people say that they love dogs, but we could tell Zuzanna genuinely does as soon as she met Louie! Zuzanna asked about everything she'd need to look after Louie and was immediately comfortable with him, no shyness or awkwardness, it was like leaving him with a friend. Will definitely book again!”


“Holly and Ryan are absolutely amazing! They looked after our two dogs (both with their own little problems) and they made them both so comfortable and at ease while we were away! They kept us updated regularly and we came home to two happy pups who were sad to see them leave ❤️ Could not recommend highly enough.”

“Danielle looked after our two girls whilst we were away for the weekend, and I cannot say enough good things about her! They are both reactive and have quite quirky needs, all of which Danielle tuned into, and provided lots of tools to keep them occupied and train their mind up! We were kept up to date and it was clear the girls settled really quickly with Danielle. One of the girls is terrified of fireworks and Danielle stayed up cuddling her until the early hours of the morning to ensure she was settled - we’ve already booked for our next holiday and will be doing in future! It gives such peace of mind having someone that the dogs love, especially when they’re not the easiest behaviourally!”


“We booked Alex last minute and she called up before hand to meet our doggies.She stayed in our house for 5 days while we went away and she sent us photo updates of how our doggies were doing.We would definitely use Alex again x”


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.

“Austeja and Maizon house sat our 2 dogs Roxy and Marley over 11 days and they where amazing. The dogs where walked and fed everyday and never left alone, my house was left very tidy and they had even left little gifts for me and my daughter, and toys for the dogs which I thought was so kind of them. I would definitly recommend them and will 100% be asking them to dogsit again in the future. Thankyou both xx”


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.

“Sally stayed with our dogs in our home for 5 nights / 6 days. She cared for our dogs as though they were her own, regular updates and photos. Will definitely be using Sally again as she really reassured us! We’ve always struggled with dog sitters due to having a boisterous puppy but Sally took her in her stride and loved my dogs like we would whilst we’re away! Thank you so much Sally xx”

“Sarah and Stuart are absolutely amazing at looking after all pets to an amazing level, they have such high levels of experience with all types of animals - your pets will be loved very much”


Hannah G.
“Testimonial for Hannah – AKA Mary Pawpins! Highly recommended (even if we are now playing second fiddle to the new favorite human). If you're looking for a pet sitter who is part dog whisperer, and 100% wonderful, look no further than Hannah. She recently looked after our two cockerpoos, Douglas and Joani, and honestly... we’re a little concerned. They might love her more than they love us now. From the moment she met them, it was like watching a Disney movie unfold — tails wagging, ears flapping, hearts stolen. Not only did she follow their (slightly ridiculous) dietary requirements to the letter — including scrambled eggs every morning — but she also gave them endless cuddles, playtime, and love like they were her own. We were especially grateful that Hannah cared for them in our home while we were away. Coming back, it was like the house had been visited by a tidy, dog-loving fairy. Everything was spotless, the dogs were happy and relaxed, and I’m not saying they ignored us when we walked in but they weren’t quick to leave Hannah’s side. In short: Hannah is a gem. A paws-itively amazing sitter (sorry, had to), and we’d trust her again in a heartbeat. Just be warned — your pets may start giving you the side-eye for not being Hannah.”

Shelley J.
“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!”
