“Rhian was extremely good and understanding with our dogs. Even at short notice she managed to make the time to visit us beforehand and get to know the dogs before her visit. Would highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs any small breed for 8 years. Neighbors, friends and family could trust and rely on me every time. I treat dogs as our best friends always respecting their wellbeing - if they want to play, rest or go for a walk. I am currently working in clinical trials from the office Monday-Thursday. In this case, i’m available afternoons and evenings (after 5pm) during the week and whole day weekends. I am also available for a few day stays if you need to go for holidays or you just can’t take your puppy with you :) The most important for me is the wellbeing of the dog, the place where it can rest/have fun (i have a spacious living room). I live next to the park and thames path, so there is plenty of space for walks and meet furry friends. In case of dangerous situations, I know how to avoid such situations and take care of dogs. I always maintain the schedule for feeding and follow the rules provided by the dog owner.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other fluffy friends for family, friends, and colleagues, for many years. I adore my family and friends’ pets, however as I cannot have dogs in my house, I have started pet sitting more frequently, and it’s a wonderful experience. I love being around animals and being active. I did my dissertation in animal behaviour so it’s safe to say animals fascinate me. Some of the pets I regularly care for are nervous and I believe it’s so important to build trust and therefore confidence in our furry friends. While I have a lot of experience with pets, owners always know what’s best for their pet. It’s important to me to be following all the instructions laid down by pet owners and be consistent with the routines they are used to. I am currently available for pet services during the regular 9-5 Monday to Friday schedule. I can be available for evenings, overnight, and weekends with prior planning Safety is incredibly important and I would want to communicate pet needs and schedules woth owners thoroughly so I can best care for their pet. Trust is something I would be constantly working on with your pet, as it’s a slow process and takes care and patience to build together. I believe with my kind nature and including fussing and play time, I will become your pets friend too.

“Libby is phenomenal. Easy to work with, does a phenomenal job with our dog Sherman, is an active communicator and is essential to making sure Sherman has the best care. Highly, highly recommend.”


“Maike was a wonderful and reliable cat sitter giving us piece of mind while on holiday. Everything went really well, our cats enjoyed her company and care, and I would very much recommend her to anyone looking for a friendly and trustworthy sitter.”


About: Growing up in Greece, I was always the one stopping to feed stray cats or helping injured animals find care. At home, I had pets of my own, so I learned early on how to create a calm, clean space—even with all the fur and playful chaos! Looking after animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy earning their trust and making them feel safe and loved. I work part-time at the moment and willing to live anywhere in Cambridge to see new places, while also having the good company of man's best friend! I love to provide lots of play time for pets as I really enjoy it and have no problem doing it most of the time. After walks I will clean any muddy paws to keep the house clean as well as give your pet a bath if you request it.

“Gemma looked after our labradoodle puppy for half of one day and all of the following day, including dog walking. She worked really hard to build our puppy's trust and I felt really confident leaving her with Gemma! I think they had a great time together- we'd definitely ask Gemma to look after our dog again.”


About: I am new in Cambridge and would love the company of a cute dog. It is the perfect opportunity to go out for more walks. I love petting dogs but I respect their autonomy if they want to be left alone. I go along with what they show they want. I am mostly flexible especially in the mornings. In the evenings I often attend dance classes. But I do need to know a week in advance. I was catsitting for a friend in Berlin, it was an amazing experience for everyone. My home is a temple and I treat other people's homes with the same respect.

“Emma provided an exceptional experience for my cat over a long weekend. She ensured my cat received her daily medication and captured stunning pictures that she updated me with after each visit. My cat was noticeably happy upon my return. I highly recommend Emma as a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Her dedication and attention to detail exceeded all expectations.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities since my teenage years, along with cats, rabbits, and other small pets. Neighbours, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and give companionship to their pets while they’re away. I’m confident handling puppies, senior pets, and animals with special routines, always ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in their own home. I work full-time hours, but I can request days off in advance to accommodate pet sitting bookings. I’m available for overnight house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I’m happy to plan ahead so your pets get the care they need. Evening visits and weekends are easiest to arrange, and with notice, I can also cover weekday daytime care. As I provide care in your home, your pet stays in a familiar, low-stress environment. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding times to walk routes, and keep you updated with photos and messages. I respect your home, keep everything clean and tidy, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after until you return.

About: I have been looking after animals for years, from cats to puppies to elderly dogs and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My experience includes walking, feeding, basic grooming, medication and providing attention. I am looking forward to getting to know each individual pet and ensuing they feel comfortable at all times. There is nothing I love more than playing with, cuddling and going on walks with animals of all shapes and sizes. I am available for walks and drop in visits every day, and overnight stays on Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s. Early mornings and afternoons are most ideal, however I am flexible and happy to accommodate for last minute bookings. The safety and happiness of animals is always my top priority, and I will easily be able to follow specific instructions for feeding, walks and playtime to ensure pets stay content stays stress free. I always double check gates, doors and harnesses, and wouldn’t leave pets unattended outdoors. I always keep a close eye on behaviour to ensure and problem is noticed, and would always leave the home exactly as found. I also have had experience giving medication in the past.
