Cat Sitting Calderdale

“Really happy with the care my reptiles received from Jade. From the initial meet and greet, communication was quick and easy, and I got plenty of updates and photos while I was away. Before I left, I’d accidentally left my gecko’s enclosure open and he escaped. She spotted it straight away, and went an extra mile and stayed longer than planned to safely get him back, and kept me and my emergency contact updated throughout. I’d happily rebook in the future and would definitely recommend her to others!”

Macey G.

“Lou communicated really well in advance and came to meet the cats before sitting. Lots of photos / videos to reassure me all going well and instructions followed to the letter. Thank you!”

Oli B.

“Macey was the kindest, most thoughtful and professional catsitter. She sent us regular updates and pictures to keep us from worrying whilst on holiday. We came back home to a very relaxed kitty who clearly had been shown a lot of love and care in our absence. I’m hoping Macey can become my long-term catsitter for these reasons! ”

About: Hi! We’re Lily and Joe, a couple based in Halifax. We both work flexibly from home (spacious and comfortable) so can offer lots of attention to your dog. Lots of green space around my village for walks. We have vast experience dog sitting for friends/family as well as having my own family dogs for 20+ years. Myself and Joe live an active lifestyle and love going for walks. We look forward to caring for your lovely dogs! I work flexibly from home so can be there to care for your dogs every need and let them out for toilet / walk as often as needed. The back of my house is fenced off and secure, and my house doors are always locked for security. My house is open plan and spacious so very comfortable for your pets.

About: There hasn't been a time in my life without dogs. I currently have 2 rescues from the RSPCA; a Dachshund and a Shih Tzu cross Pomeranian. Growing up we had 3 Dalmatians and a Doberman. I am also an experienced small pet owner from gerbils, hamsters and rats through to guinea pigs and rabbits. I know how much your pets mean to you but also how sometimes you go places that aren't best suited for them and just need a helping hand to watch over them. I will always ensure the best care for them and some may say spoil them a bit too much! I work an office job 9-5 so I am available mornings, evenings and weekends. I can do short visits on lunch times if located within nearby proximity. I have grown up with dogs and small pets my whole life so I am well versed in animal care and what they need. I have had dogs of varying temperaments. Most of my dogs have been rescues so all come with their own quirks and needs. I understand how some pets require a little extra t.l.c and some need their own space.

“Elisa is a fantastic pet sitter, she’s very thorough and caring. She left lots of detail and pictures so I knew our cat was okay, and could relax knowing he was being properly looked after. We will definitely book again!”

Matilda R.

“Ellie was great, no problems at all, we felt at ease leaving our pets to be looked after by her.”

About: I provide calm, reliable and attentive care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I take time to understand each animal’s routine, personality and preferences so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m especially good with building trust with pets who may be anxious or need a bit more patience, and I’m very mindful of maintaining familiar routines such as feeding times, walks, and comfort habits. I treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on consistency, reassurance, and creating a stress free environment for them while their owner has peace of mind. I work from home with a high level of flexibility to provide pet care. This means I can fit around feeding times, walks, check-ins, and any specific routines your pet is used to. On my working days, I am still able to step away as needed to provide care, and I am also available for mornings, evenings, and overnight stays depending on requirements. On my non-working day and weekends, I have additional flexibility for longer stays or more frequent visits. My aim is always to provide consistent, calm and reliable care that fits naturally around the pet’s routine. I primarily offer pet sitting in the pet owner’s home, as I believe most pets feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their usual routine including feeding times, walks, play, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure their home is kept clean, secure, and respected at all times. My focus is on reducing stress for the pet by maintaining consistency and providing calm, attentive care while their owner is away.

About: You may notice a gap in our recent reviews, we took a short break for personal reasons, but we are so excited to be back! We truly love every 'furry' guest we host and can’t wait to meet yours. ​I currently work a hybrid schedule, so I am unable to accept dogs with severe separation anxiety. However, I am a great fit for pups who are comfortable being home for up to 4.5 hours (half a workday). For the other half of the day, I work from home and your little one will have my full attention! ​Every dog has a unique personality. The more you share about their specific needs and quirks, the better we can ensure they have a wonderful 'staycation' while you’re away. Please reach out with any questions! We know leaving your dog can be stressful for both of you. Your pet's well-being is our top priority. A meet and greet is essential so we can assess compatibility and how quickly your dog settles into a new environment. If everything goes well, we recommend a trial stay. We want to ensure your dog is happy and relaxed while you're away. While we'd love to care for every dog, we're unable to accept pets with separation anxiety or those who cannot be left alone, as our setup doesn't allow for 24/7 home care. However, you can be confident that your dog will receive lots of love and attention during their stay with us! For the garden: "We have a private, fenced-in garden in the front and a tiered garden in the back, offering your dog safe spaces to explore and relax." For the canal walks: "I'm familiar with some scenic canal paths perfect for calm walks and playtime. These offer a peaceful alternative to busier city areas."

About: From a young age I have always been fond of all animals and as a family we took on the role as puppy walkers for Guide Dogs. One puppy we adopted unfortunately developed arthritis so could no longer carry on the training but this allowed us to keep him and we had a fantastic 13 years together. He made my childhood and although in adulthood I haven't taken a dog on myself, I am a serial dog auntie to many and offered dog walks and pet sitting to friends/family/colleagues/neighbours etc before I started extending this to services on Rover. I am a really keen walker and know some great dog friendly routes but also always keen for the excuse to find new ones. I do work but have flexibility in my schedule and can work from home too which means I am on hand to be with pets in the day. I do not have the commitments of kids or other pets myself so again can offer that flexible care in the week to meet the needs of different people and their pets. I offer hands on care to ensure the safety and comfort and any pet I am responsible for. I want owners to feel assured their beloved animals are in safe hands. I am flexible to follow the wishes of owners to meet the individual needs of their pets, (however quirky they may be).

“We have booked Emma a few times now to come and drop in and feed our cat Sandy whilst we have been away. I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough ! She took the time to come and meet her first which I really liked. Both times we have been away I’ve had pictures and videos from Emma of Sandy. I worry a lot with our cat being 16 and on medication but I felt like I left her in good hands both times and she made me feel at ease thankyou so much !”

Emily B.

“Caysey was perfectly professional and provided excellent care during her drop-ins for our cat. We loved seeing the photos she sent for peace of mind, and she was consistent in her timings. Definitely recommend Caysey!”

Amber R.

“Fiona did an excellent job for us while we were away she kept us up to date each day & put our minds at rest. Highly recommended. Thanks Fiona ?”

About: Hi, we’re Annabelle & Chris! and we have had dogs around us ever since we were both little or born so we have always been around dogs, we absolutely LOVE them. We would even say they are better than people!! We’re used to all different breeds and sizes of dogs and no dog is ever too much to handle. We like to think we get a good sense of what a dog is like just from spending a short amount of time with them. We have also owned cats previously so we are super happy to offer a comforting friendly face for your furry friend. Rest assured, your dog is with genuine dog lovers. We can't wait to meet them! Me and Chris have decided to do this together, meaning we can offer extra support for your furry friends! Annabelle - I currently work full time from home so can offer your furry friend company all day long. I have 2 dogs of my own so I am used to the routine of getting up at 5:30am to give them a good walk, breakfast and playtime before starting work (from home) I then finish work and take them for another long walk in the evening followed by dinner and playtime in the garden or living room ( weather dependant) so they’re tired out before bedtime. Chris - has his own business so is also very flexible on when and where he can work. So there will always be someone available for your furry friend! If you’re like us, do you hate the thought of your pet being left alone for hours on end while you go out to work? Do you pay ridiculous costs just for someone to drop in and walk your dog for a short while? We are here to help! We are offering daycare, boarding, pet walking, all you’re pets needs! Our biggest objective is that your pet feels safe and always has company. I have a fully fenced and gated garden at our home address, so there will be no escapees. However before taking on any boarders we would be looking to offer dog walking, day care services, to get to know each pup personally and to make sure you and your beloved pup are comfortable and all needs are catered for. We personally like to know our dogs feel at ease when staying with someone and that we’re not leaving them with a stranger, this is the relationship we’d love to build with you and your furry friend!

About: Hi, My name is Georgia, I am 25 years old and animal care is my passion. I studied animal management at college and also completed extra qualifications at college including animal first aid and canine behaviour and training. I volunteered at an animal shelter for several months where I walked the dogs and cleaned dog kennels and cat pens. I previously had a part-time job at a small animal boarding and canine hydrotherapy centre where I worked with rescue rabbits and guinea pigs, and other small animals in the boarding facilities. I had my own dog walking business prior to Covid, however like many other businesses during this time, I had to give it up. I am currently working full time but would love to spend my free time helping with your pet care needs! I am currently studying biology at university; I am always free in the evening and at the weekend. I will work around my classes during the week. I am unable to offer boarding, I do however have a lot of experience in pet-sitting and dog walking. My primary goal is to ensure that the animal's needs are met, but I am also there to provide company, playtime and lots of cuddles.

About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs in home environments, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away. I’ve looked after dogs for friends, family, and neighbours, handling feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention. I’m confident with different breeds and temperaments, including more nervous or high-energy dogs, and I always adapt to each dog’s needs and routine. I’m reliable, patient, and make sure owners are kept updated so they have peace of mind while they’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, sitting, and extended stays during some weekdays and weekends. Because I’m not tied to a fixed work schedule, I can adapt to each pet’s routine, including feeding times, play, and any specific care needs. I prioritise creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behaviour, and any specific needs to ensure they feel secure and settled. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully, including feeding, medication if needed, and keeping the environment clean and safe. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on the pet’s wellbeing, while keeping owners updated for reassurance.

About: I have had both cats and dogs since I was born. I have had a range of different breed dogs including Labradors as well as an English Bull Terrier. I know how to train dogs and care for dogs as I have 20 years of 'unprofessional' experience, you could say. I also have walked dogs through apps such as Borrow My Doggy and have had a successful experience there. I have previously dog sited friends dogs as well as other family member dogs. I have also cared for others cats. I also am currently trying to improve my photography skills and have taken some lovely photos of my pets as well as my friends and families, so can snap some lovely shots of your animals, can't promise top quality :) I'm currently on my masters placement year. I am in work 3 days a work but work from home most days. I am looking to earn some money while also spending time with animals, which I love! I will look to follow your helpful tips on what’s best for your pets. This will include best toys, food spots and best cuddle spots!

About: I have lived with and been surrounded by cats and dogs my whole life, particularly rescues. I have experience with puppies/kitties but also senior pets! I have a completely open schedule 90% of the time, so I have more than enough time to care for and play with your pets! I understand some pets require more attention than others, I believe play and exercise are very important. I will ensure the animals in question are content, safe and have all the attention they need

About: I've grown up with animals, especially dogs. Whether it was my grandparents' German Shepherd or my own Jack Russell, I have an affinity with animals. I'm currently studying part-time and work part-time so there's a bit of flexibility for dog walking but it depends on my shift pattern. I'm an early riser, so morning walks are absolutely fine! I work 3 days a week in Lindley Huddersfield – pet sitting would be suitable if on certain days they can be left alone. Unfortunately I can't care for pets in my own home. Not because I don't want to but it's a rented property in a listed building.
