About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have two of my own back home: a Samoyed and a Poodle, which I miss very much🥺, And I’m used to different personalities, ages, and needs. They’re completely different, which has taught me how to understand each dog individually. I’ve trained my own dogs, including crate training, potty training, and basic commands like sit, stay, spin, paw and recall, so I’m confident handling behaviour in a calm and consistent way. I also enjoy making dog friendly treats and I’m very aware of what’s safe and unsafe for dogs. I’m a graduating student staying in Cardiff over the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give dogs plenty of time, attention, and love. I have an easy access to a park and a garden, which is ideal for walks and outdoor time. I acquire an enhanced DBS check for added reassurance. I’m happy to help with anything from walks and day care to longer stays, and can also support with basic training if necessary :) I’m available throughout the week for walks, day care, and overnight stays, so I can be really flexible depending on what you need. I’m also quite an active person and love my morning walks, so having a little companion with me would make it even better My home is set up to be dog friendly and clean, so it’s a comfortable environment where dogs can settle in easily. I have access to a garden for quick toilet breaks. And I don’t have any other pets at home
“Kerri did an excellent job of looking after Jojo and Doris, providing regular updates abd pictures of their day, I could see how happy they were which made me feel reassured. Already booked Kerri for my next absence away from home, which I know my furbabies will be happy to see her again.”

“Thank you so much for visiting Grace, she really has come such a long way from the first time you met, still reactive at the door but calming down all the time, thank you for your professionalism and time, we really appreciate it🐺”


“I booked Sofia to come and give my new puppy her midday feed and a toilet break. We also have a 10 year old boxer that Sofia gives some love to on her visits. She is great with the dogs, always punctual and a lovely person. Highly recommend.”


“Jake was fabulous. He went above and beyond to care for our cat, Luna over the holiday period. If you are looking for an attentive cat sitter with experience, Jake is your best option! Thank you so much again. 🥰”


About: Although never professionally involved in the pet care industry, I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, all with different personalities! Within my village, I walked dogs for many families, including a few home stays when needed. Being a pet lover, I know the joy a single walk brings to our pets. I will help you love your furry friends when your schedule does not allow you! I am currently an international student, only in two days a week. I am fairly flexible in my routine after Monday and Tuesday. I have developed a routine to complete my school/daily tasks, allowing me to now incorporate other priorities. In a pet owner’s home, I stick closely to their routine so pets feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, provide plenty of attention and exercise, keep the space clean, and send updates if wanted!
“Rhiannon was a wonderful sitter! I was gone for over two weeks and my cat and I both get separation anxiety, but Rhiannon put us at ease. She sent me updates and photos every day, and laid out a clear schedule for her visits in advance. She’s a natural with animals and kept things tidy and looked after while I was away. Would recommend her services and will hire her again!! x”


About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs, specifically cats, between the ages of about 8-18! I’ve also helped with newborn bulldog puppy and kitten care, including overnight feedings, playtimes and toilet breaks. I’m currently studying full time at uni, but my campus is easily accessible and my schedule is very much self-made, as it’s all coursework and art based! As someone who has three bulldogs at home, one whom has many health issues, making adjustments to support their needs was especially important! Coming from a family who own a dog-walking field, and are trained in dog health and safety, I know at least the basics of caring for your pet!
About: I have a rescue cat which has been with me for 6 years. The mother of the cat abandoned her when she was only 2 weeks old so I had to feed her milk from the bottle, make sure she can do her toilet properly and keep her warm while she was going to sleep. Alongside that I have looked after several other animals such as tortoises, birds and dogs. I’m the happiest when I’m around animals. I just finished my 1st year in Cardiff uni so I’m mainly free to take care of your little ones as home sits or in the afternoons. Regardless of whether your pet is well trained or not I would like you to know that I won’t be letting them off the lead throughout their time with me. I will make sure to keep you updated during the time they’re with me through photos and videos. I will make sure they get good exercise and their safety/happiness would be at the forefront of my mind at all times.
“Emily is a great sitter! She dropped in on my cat Leo over the Christmas period. She was attentive with sending photos and updates and did lots of playing with Leo. Will definitely book Emily again!”

“Meowser was obviously very well looked after, she was content and happy when I arrived back from travel. Poppy was great, communication was good and she sent many photos. Cat litter was nice and tidy when I arrived back. Great job!”


About: Animals have always been a massive part of my life. I currently have two cats and grew up with both cats and dogs, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s playtime, feeding, walks, or just giving them attention and company !! I work from home flexibly, so can work from any location and can always pop out to sit and play with pets! I have two cats of my own so I am used to the routine. I can use your routine so your pet is the most comfortable when being looked after. Please provide me with instruction on how you would like things done or leave it up to me!
About: I’ve previously owned a cat myself and genuinely enjoy spending time caring for animals. I also have experience looking after dogs for my boyfriend’s family while they were away or working, so I’m used to being responsible for pets’ routines, feeding, companionship, and overall care. I’m calm, patient, and attentive to different animal personalities, whether they’re energetic and affectionate or more shy and independent. I’ve also helped care for newborn puppies, which taught me the importance of being gentle, observant, and responsible around animals. I’m currently on summer break from university, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. Even when I have occasional coursework or assignments, I’m able to work remotely, which means I can still spend lots of quality time with your cat and maintain their usual routine and care. When caring for pets in their owner’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I will feed them on time, refresh their water, keep their litter area clean, and make sure they have a calm and tidy environment. I’ve also regularly cared for dogs for family members while they were away, so I understand the importance of reliability, patience, and keeping pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings. With cats especially, I understand that every personality is different, I’m happy to give affection, playtime, and cuddles if they want it, while also respecting their space if they are more shy or independent. I would treat both your cat and your home with care, patience, and respect.

About: I have taken care of cats my entire life as I have had 3 in my 19 years. I also have taken care of dogs every so often. I know the basic routines and structures in both care for dogs and cats. I am currently and unemployed student who is free the entirety of the summer. I can visit your pet multipule times a day. I am avaliable almost all the time. I am avaliable to walk your dog frequently, or let them outside in your garden (if you have one). I can also care for your pet easily within your home.
“Hannah was lovely. Bruce was a little anxious at first but her gentle and calm demeanor soon reassured him. It was a great introduction and Bruce is looking forward to a longer sitting with Hannah on Friday”

Kathryn was amazing with Ronnie and Reggie, she made them feel safe as they are not used to strangers but they quickly warmed to her and they became good friends. I would highly recommend Kathryn as she went over and above, definitely we will use Kathryn now on 5*

Elise is a very caring and professional cat sitter. She is experienced in taking care of cats and understands their different needs and personalities. My cat Kiki only requires the basic care, but Elise was very helpful to clean up the mess Kiki created in my absence. It is very much appreciated! I would recommend her to everyone for an ease of mind during their holidays.

She was very lively and friendly young person and quickly understanding the needs of you your pet (Cat)and from where we seen directly our cat was very comfortable and happy playing with her when she visited him. Well Done Mia definitely will see you again for our next trip. Thanks Edgar & MarryAnn

Zoe has been an absolutely brilliant cat sitter. She sent updates and photos after every visit, which were very reassuring. My normally shy cat Cleo immediately adored her - I told her she was a cat whisperer! I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her.
