About: I grew up surrounded by animals including guinea pigs, budgies, dogs and even a hamster! One year ago I adopted my rescue dog from Romania, Lillah. When we first adopted her she was incredibly nervous on walks. Overtime, through kindness, patience and dedication, I slowly built her confidence with walks and socialisation- now she can't wait to get her lead on! Training ✅ Enhanced DBS ✅ Dog First Aid for: choking and bleeds I currently work part time teaching drama classes to children once a week (Fridays). I have a very flexible schedule weekdays and weekends. I am especially free during school holiday periods. For pets in my home I ensure my home is neat, tidy and any objects or toxic hazards are stored away and out of reach. At pet owners homes i will discuss with the owner what health and safety precautions they have in place.

About: I have always owned dogs and have a genuine passion for their care and wellbeing. I also previously worked as a veterinary nurse for the RSPCA, giving me valuable experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust, and I always treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m confident handling dogs, recognising their individual needs and making sure they feel happy, safe and comfortable while in my care. I work part time from home and am flexible, so easy to for me to fit pet care around my schedule. I make sure any bookings get my full attention and I love having animals as part of my daily routine. I offer drop in visits to make sure pet are happy and well looked after in their own home. I’ll follow their normal routine- whether that’s feeding, topping up water, letting them out for a toilet break, or just giving them some company and attention. I always aim to keep things calm and reassuring, especially if a pet is shy or nervous. Every visit is tailored to what your pet needs to feel safe and settled whilst your’re away. I also offer dog walking and home boarding. I’m happy to give your dog a good walk, some company and plenty of fuss, or have them stay with us in a home from home environment whilst your away. I have a fenced garden with two very friendly dogs, a chocolate Labrador and a cocker spaniel. I am confident handling dogs and recognising when they may need extra care or attention

“Paige was really lovely with our dog who is a new rescue. Very pleased with her service, she kept me updated on each visit. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in future.”

“Caitlin has been brilliant with our little Mia. Very warm and caring. Mia immediately felt comfortable with her 💛”

Steffan C.

“Emily was our absolute assurance that Dottie Lou would be very well cared for during our absence. She sent us messages and photos for each visit which showed that our treasured little rescue kitty had found a new friend. We are so grateful to have found Emily … she’s wonderful!”

Maureen H.

“Chloe is doing a lovely job interacting with Casper and making him feel loved and most importantly comfortable. Casper seems to be bonding well too. Chloe is very calm and flexible to accommodate whenever needed. Thank you!”

About: I treat every dog as if they were my own and always aim to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I take the time to learn each dog's routine, personality, and any special requirements so they receive the care they're used to at home. Whether I'm looking after your dog in my home or yours, I'll stick to their feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any training or house rules you've set. I live close to a lovely country park, so your dog can enjoy safe, enjoyable walks with plenty of opportunities to sniff, explore, and exercise. At home, they'll have lots of attention, playtime, and a comfortable place to rest. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy and well cared for while you're away. I have had all sort of animals from a young age, from cats & dogs, chickens, bunnies, guinea pigs and horses!! My previous dog was a black Labrador who suffered with severe arthritis and was blind needing eye-drops and oral medication multiple times a day, so I would also be able to do this for your pet if needed. I currently work Mon-Fri, 9-4 but am usually able to work from home so can supervise during the day. Walking in mornings, afternoons and evenings, and most weekends. Your pet's safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow each owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication (if required), and any house rules. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I ensure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and regular toilet breaks. With a country park nearby, dogs can enjoy safe, enriching walks and exercise while always being kept under close supervision. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for added peace of mind.

“I had a very good experience. I felt comfortable leaving my cat, Freya, in Mike's care and was confident that she was safe and well looked after while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and Freya seemed happy and relaxed when I returned. Communication was easy, and Mike sent plenty of cute photos and videos, which was very reassuring. It was clear that she was being properly cared for, and I would happily trust Mike with Freya again in the future.”

Ivanna Z.

“I can strongly recommend Cassie. This is the first time I have booked Cassie and from the meet and greet I was very impressed with how she approached my 3 elderly cats and they loved her. Even my very shy, timid cat was rolling over onto her back for a tummy tickle within a couple of days. Cassie sent twice daily updates and they all looked great.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have been caring for pets since I was around 10 years old. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, as well as pets of different ages, personalities and routines. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person looking after your pets, so I always take the time to understand their normal routine, likes, dislikes and any individual needs. I work from home, which gives me lots of flexibility and means I can spend plenty of time with the animals in my care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m happy to follow feeding and walking routines, provide lots of playtime and attention, and of course give plenty of cuddles to pets who want them! My aim is for your pet to feel safe, settled and loved while you’re away and for you to be able to relax knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home which gives me much larger availability to care for my own animals and to give me time to care for others. I live at home with my mum so thankfully we also have someone in for my dogs/cats and I am able to do the same for someone else. I work full-time from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I can easily work pet care around my schedule, including regular feeding, toilet breaks, walks, playtime and lots of company. This also means pets in my care won’t be left alone for long periods. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow their usual routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding, medication, walks and household rules. I make sure their environment is secure and pay close attention to their behaviour so I can spot if anything seems unusual. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: I have grown up surrounded by different animals from all sizes including horses, dogs, cats, donkeys to the smaller likes of hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs and ferrets. I currently have a large greyhound called Velma who is more than happy sleeping the day away with the occasional cuddle. I understand not all dogs have the same needs and am adaptive in my approach. I currently work a shift pattern, meaning I am often available during the week and at odd times to help with your pet needs. I do not work overnight and so will be available for house sitting. For house sitting services, I will ensure I ask the correct questions from the home owners to be able to care for their pet to the best of my ability. I have great listening and observation skills to safely care for your additional family member!

About: I have had various pets including cats and small furries. I have previously worked for a petsitting company and also volunteered at cat rescues and animal sanctuaries, including Hopefield Animal Sanctuary in Brentwood I'm currently doing flexible part time work so am able to fit in with your requirements with no problems, including weekday, weekends and holidays Am available to feed, water and walk your pet (if appropriate). Am happy to take in post, water plants and do anything else required for you.

About: I have grown up with and always loved animals. I regularly look after dogs of varying breeds (and personalities) for friends and family which I absolutely love. My experience varies from stubborn Huskies to yappy Jack Russel's to needy Siamese cats while also loving my own boisterous Labrador. This also varies in age, from my own 1 year old Labrador who we have had since a puppy, to more senior dogs who prefer a slower pace of life. I am understanding of the fact that different breeds and ages have different needs and requirements when it comes to daily care and I am always happy to incorporate this into their daily routine. Please feel free to message me for anymore information or any questions you may have. I currently work from home on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so will be around all day. I have a Labrador of my own, so we are in the routine of letting the dog out regularly, providing two walks a day and doing regular check ins to make sure there is plenty of water and all needs are met. Our garden is fully enclosed so the dogs are able to venture in and out as they please. My Labrador is still crated at night, however if your dog does not require crating this is fine. During the day, you dog will never be left for more than two hours. They layout of our house is slightly different, with the living area being on the first floor. This may not always be the best for more senior dogs. If there is any issues with this then please let me know.
