Luc was incredible with our dog Pablo; it was our first time leaving him alone overnight with someone, and he did wonderfully to put our minds at ease whilst we were away. Pablo absolutely loved him, and we look forward to booking him again soon!

I can’t recommend Holly enough! She was so calm and confident when our dog wasn’t, and sent lots of reassurance of him once he calmed down ☺️ She is accommodating and friendly and your pets will be in safe hands ☺️

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!

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!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, growing up with dogs, cats and rabbits in the home. Since buying my first home, I now have two cats and a rabbit of my own, and I regularly look after my parents’ cockapoos and five cats when they go away. I’ve also cared for friends’ retrievers and have experience with a wide range of cat breeds and temperaments, including Ragamuffins, Birmans and Ragdolls as well as some gorgeous fun loving moggies :) I offer a calm, loving, cosy home environment with a large secure garden where dogs can safely run around and play. Visiting dogs are treated like part of the family and can make themselves comfortable around the house, whether they enjoy sofa cuddles, quiet time or garden zoomies. I can't wait to have a dog of my own in the future! I’m patient, reliable and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding instructions, walks, playtime, medication where needed (having owned a disabled cat previously that required medication) and regular updates for owners. As I have my own cats and rabbit, they can be kept separate from visiting dogs and cats if needed, so everyone feels safe and settled. I'm 28 years old and currently a Masters student completing my dissertation so I will be at home all the time and I live with my partner who's a high-school teacher. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, and so I promise to care for them with kindness, attention and genuine love until you return to them. Ready to accept boarders, stay at your home wiht pets and offer dog walking if its close to my home. My current routine is ideal for pet care, as I’m home most of the week and love having animals around while I study. I’m currently at home throughout the week while completing my Master’s dissertation, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to give pets plenty of time, attention and company during the day. Because I’m home-based at the moment, your pet wouldn’t be left for long periods, and I can easily work around their usual routine — whether that includes feeding times, walks, playtime, garden breaks, medication, cuddles or quiet time. I also really enjoy getting out for local walks, so having a dog to care for fits perfectly with my lifestyle. I’m happy to build walks into the day depending on your dog’s energy levels and needs, whether they prefer a gentle stroll or something a little more active. If I go to the gym, I usually go very early in the morning around 5:30–6:00am, so it doesn’t take away from the time I can dedicate to looking after your pet but I can work this around the dog/cats routine. Overall, my routine is calm, flexible and home-based, which means I can offer a reliable and attentive environment for your animal while they’re in my care. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, settled and loved, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting theirs. In my own home, I offer a calm, welcoming environment where pets can settle in at their own pace and be treated like part of the family. I have a large secure garden where dogs can enjoy fresh air, playtime and toilet breaks safely. Inside the house, pets are welcome to make themselves comfortable, whether they prefer being close by, relaxing in a quiet spot, or having space to themselves. I always follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding instructions, walks, medication, sleep arrangements and any specific rules or preferences from their owner. Because I have two cats and a rabbit of my own, I’m very mindful of introductions, boundaries and keeping animals safe. My own pets can be kept separate from visiting pets if needed, and I would always discuss this with owners beforehand to make sure the arrangement is suitable for everyone. I’m also happy to care for one or two dogs/cats at a time if needed or just look after one if that helps your pet feel more settled and gives you extra peace of mind. I take time to understand each animal’s personality, behaviour and needs before a booking, including how they are with other animals, whether they have any anxieties, allergies, medical needs or triggers, and what helps them feel calm. I believe in gentle, patient care and would never force interaction or rush a pet who needs time to adjust. Happy to have a call or meeting beforehand if that makes you feel more comfortable. If I’m caring for pets in an owner’s home, I treat the home with the same respect and care I would expect in my own. I’ll make sure pets are fed, checked, comforted and cared for properly, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pet is happy and well looked after.

Alex recently came to stay for a week with my dog whilst we went away. What a pleasure it was. She was polite and so lovely. Really looked after him, kept me updated. Sent lovely pics. House was just as we left it. Even bought us milk and bread for when we got home which I thought was lovely. Would have her back in a heart beat. Thanks so much xxx

About: I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats my whole life, so being around animals has always just been part of me. My family have always had dogs, big and small, so I’m really comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve also grown up with cats, including different breeds, so I understand how varied their needs and temperaments can be too. Alongside my own pets, and families pets, I’ve also done dog and cat sitting for a family friend, which included giving insulin injections to their diabetic dog and caring for their senior cat. That experience really built my confidence in handling more complex needs, and showed me how important it is to be calm, patient, and attentive when animals rely on you. For me, it’s never just about “pet sitting”. I know they’re your baby, and making sure they feel safe, settled, and properly cared for while you’re away is my priority. Whether it’s sticking to routines, giving medication, going on walks, or just spending time with them so they feel comfortable, I’ll treat them with the same level of care and attention I give in my job and to my own pets, so you can feel completely at ease knowing they’re in safe hands. i currently work in a children’s home so i am available before and after work, also available at the weekends to give your babies lots of love and care. I am unable to offer having pets in my home due to having pets of my own however, i am flexible and willing to cater to yours and your pets routine in their home.

About: As an AuDHD person, like many other neurodivergent people, I connect with animals very easily and love to spend time around them. I was born into a house that already had a cat so I have been around animals of one kind or another since day dot. Over the years my family have had cats, hamsters, rabbits, and a dog. While living with friends I’ve helped take care of small reptiles too. Since having my own place I’ve had cats and rabbits. I currently have 2 cats who I love with all my heart. I take care of a friend’s dog, a 6-year-old cockapoo with the energy of a puppy called Cooper, semi-regularly & help an elderly woman down the road with her dog walks now she can’t go as far as she once could. Since I work from home and have no children, your pets will have all the company & attention they could ask for with me! I own my own small business, work from home and don’t have any children so I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This also means that I can continue to work from your home if necessary so your pet will have all the company they could wish for! While I’m taking care of your pet I am also taking care of your home. Your place will of course stay clean and tidy and I’m happy to get on top of anything you need doing while I’m there if you would like me to. Even if I am only stopping in rather than staying to take care of your pet, your home is their home too so it will be looked after just as well as they will be!

About: I am a final-year Occupational Therapy student. I owned my pet call pigpig for 3 years already, I have created an Instagram account for him “mr_pig_pig” for daily record, is public account and you are welcome to know more about me and him xx. I do really love cat and just found this job which can let me spend more time with other lovely cat. I think I will really enjoy spending time with them. I am currently finishing my degree and waiting for my graduation ceremony. I am therefore flexible with my schedule and have plenty of time to play with dogs and cats. I provide attentive, safe, and reliable care for pets. I always prioritise the pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication requirements, and any specific behavioural needs or preferences. I take time to build trust with each pet by being calm, patient, and consistent, helping them feel secure in my care. In the home environment, I ensure the space is safe and free from hazards, and I maintain a clean and comfortable setting. I also make sure pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations and are given plenty of attention, stimulation, and affection according to their needs. I understand the importance of respecting the owner’s home and privacy, so I always act responsibly, keep the environment tidy, and communicate regularly with updates for reassurance.

Third time booking with Holly; this time just for a day-sit rather than a holiday. The dogs were so pleased to see her and settled immediately; when we returned, they were cuddled up on the settees and very happy. We were later than expected and told Holly not to wait, but she insisted with staying with them for which we were very grateful. We wouldn't look to book our (rescue) boys in with anyone else
