“Lovely pictures has been sent, Gita absolutely love Kelly , Kelly is professional, and animal lover, I am so appreciate and thankful for care which has been provided.”


“Absolutely fantastic! Ellie was wonderful with our boy Sammy He can be a stubborn fella and having diabetes going away can be stressful at best of times leaving him at home. But I’m so glad we found Ellie she was lovely and genuine when she came and met Sammy and me before hand to get a feel for his personality. Kept in constant contact with pictures and I felt so at ease knowing his bloody glucose would be tested along side his usual insulin jabs m, Ellie was wonderful with all of that too. Would recommend anyone to book Ellie she was just amazing and I think Sammy is missing her visits now too!”


About: Have been around dogs all my life, have recently helped my sister look after a few lovely pooches from this app, it was well fun! I work part time, 9am-1pm, am usually available around 3pm. Sometimes available from as early as 1pm and looking for walks or house visits day/night. When visiting the owners home I would take notes on whatever specific details about the pet I need to note down, making sure to note the areas the dog is allowed within the house as well as the obvious toilet and food requirements.

“Jasmine took the time to have a meet and greet meeting with Roger and me, she was friendly, engaging and Roger loved her. She asked lots of questions and got to know him, ready for his first drop in session. The drop ins went well, i received regular feedback and Jasmine was punctual and efficient. I highly recommend her and will be booking her again in the near future. Many thanks Jasmine from Linda and Roger x”


“Katie was great, although my cat doesn’t come out very often when there are people she doesn’t know in the house, she was kept fed and watered and her litter trays were kept perfectly clean for her. She even picked up some dreamies for her so Ida was very happy. Highly reccomended!!”


About: Together, my partner Chris & I have over 20+ years of looking after dogs. We have trained 3 dogs since puppies between us, so can manage and enjoy any aged dog. We have looked after dogs of all temperaments and have experience with rescue dogs. Both of our cockapoos love doggy friends, so your dog will need to be ok with other dogs company. Narla is very playful & Bonnie is quite reserved but so loving. We both work full time, so would only be able to pet sit over the weekend from Friday to Sunday and bank holidays. Our weekends are dedicated to taking our dogs on satisfying, interesting walks (for all of us!). We have an enclosed garden with a 6 foot fence, so your dog will be secure. We also have a crate if your dog needs this over night. We can also sleep the dogs in separate rooms if needed.

About: I’ve grown up with 3 large dogs from age 5 to 22. 6 years ago we decided as a family to get our own dog - Tilly. We had her from a puppy so I’m used to puppy care and training. Tilly has a friend who I walk with regularly and often look after her for the day or overnight. I walk her everyday on the meadows local to us and I work from home so any dog will never be left alone for longer than an hour. I work for home so I have plenty of time to look after and play with your pups! I am available everyday for dog sitting, boarding, play dates etc. I live with my husband, my daughter, her boyfriend and our Labrador Tilly so if your dog was to come and stay they would receive plenty of attention. I have a fenced garden and a secure gate so your pups will be very secure. I have my own fur baby called Tilly who is very friendly with all dogs (she’s a big softy and very spoilt). I walk her everyday and she gets lots of time off the lead, if your dog would also require that. We’re not shy to sharing our furniture or beds with dogs if needed, as that’s what we’re used to.

About: We (Hope, Left & Rachel, Right on the photo!) have been looking after all different shapes and sizes of dogs for the past 12 years and we absolutely love it! At our home, dogs are truly treated like royalty. During the week we both work from home, meaning that your dog will have constant company! The dogs are fed twice per day, both breakfast and dinner - we can also accommodate additional meals if needed. We walk the dogs in the morning and evening, so they are exercised for at least 90 minutes per day. On days where we have doggy daycare booked in, we take the dogs to a securely fenced dog agility field to ensure that they have full enrichment both mentally and physically. If your dog is boarding with us, we do this activity at least once per week - this is built into the cost already. During the weekend, we do one longer walk on both Saturday and Sunday mornings, combined with a variety of dog friendly activities in the afternoon such as dog friendly cafes and garden centres. We have a fenced garden which your dog would have constant access to through the dog flap. Our three little dogs love having company and will be there to help settle your dog in. Whilst they are all small breeds, they are used to a variety of dogs in the house such as Staffies, lurchers, cockerpoos, spaniels and other small breeds including chihuahuas. We also run a dog grooming business so we can cover any and all of your dog needs. If your dog is boarding with us and you would like to include a groom, please let us know and pricing is dependent on breed.

“Leah has been absolutely fantastic looking after my cats while I was away. I always find it difficult to leave them, but Leah’s attentive and caring nature quickly put both me and the cats at ease. She provided daily updates with messages and photos, which was incredibly reassuring. I returned home to find two very happy and relaxed cats. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough – truly outstanding care!”


About: I used to run a boarding and walking business with my mum which I really loved but we recently had to close due to her relocating I currently work part time at a hotel in quorn, I tend to do 4 hour shifts 4 days a week. I would only take on boarding jobs when I have days off work, unless you are happy for the dog to be left alone. I have water bowls and some pet supplies left over from when me and mum were boarding. I have a shared lockable gate just outside my front door, which will have a please keep closed sign on it at all times. My flat is on the ground floor and a 2 minute walk away from a park where I will be taking the dogs for walks and toilet breaks.

“Emily was fantastic from the start. She helped me with the set-up process, made time to meet Cooper beforehand, and kept me updated throughout the home sit and walk. From the photos Emily sent, it was clear that Cooper had a great time. Highly recommend!”


“Jo was great with my cat, they became best friends for a week. Jo kept me updated with great pictures every visit, would recommend her to everyone!”


“Rachel is absolutely perfect and we are so grateful for her looking after our young Golden Retriever. We don’t have to worry and know he is in safe and caring hands, which is all we can ask for. Would definitely recommend 😊”


About: Leaving my beloved pets behind when I moved to the UK for my master’s program has been one of the toughest parts of this journey. My 9-year-old Labrador, Oscar, has been my loyal companion since he was a pup. He has this incredible ability to sense my moods; when I’m feeling down, he curls up beside me, offering his warmth and unwavering support. Our daily walks are filled with joyful moments, whether it’s chasing after his favorite tennis ball or splashing through puddles. He teaches me the simple joys of life, reminding me to cherish every moment. Then there’s my sweet cat, a brave little soul I adopted a while ago. She recently became a mother to six adorable kittens, and witnessing her nurturing side has been nothing short of heartwarming. It’s a beautiful sight—her gentle purrs as she cares for her little ones, ensuring they feel safe and loved. Each kitten has their own personality, from the curious adventurer to the sleepy cuddle bug, and I feel so privileged to have been part of their lives from the start. The bond I share with Oscar and my cat is irreplaceable. They are more than just pets; they are family. I miss their playful antics and the comfort of having them around every day. Despite the distance, I hold onto the memories we’ve created together, knowing that one day, I’ll be reunited with them. In caring for them, I’ve learned the importance of patience, love, and responsibility. They’ve shown me how to be attentive to their needs and how to create a nurturing environment. The experience has deeply shaped my understanding of animal care and the profound bond between humans and their pets. I am currently a master student and do not have any jobs in particular. I am mostly free as i have only 3 days class . I would love to hang out and spend time with my furry buddies! I live near a dog friendly park where i can easily take the pet for walks and play. I myself am a very outdoor person and can hang out with pet buddies outside more than inside!

About: As a dog mum myself, I understand how important it is to feel completely at ease when leaving your pet in someone else’s care.

Whether it’s long walks, cuddles, enrichment games, or sticking closely to your dog’s routine - your pet will feel right at home with me. Right now, I’m off work for the next 10 weeks, so I have full availability every day to dedicate to pet care. This means your dog will get my undivided attention - whether it’s for walks or home visits. I’m flexible, responsive, and able to adapt to your pet’s routine without having to juggle other commitments. It’s the perfect time for me to offer calm, consistent care, just like they’d get at home. I always follow your instructions carefully, including feeding times, walks, medication (if needed), and any house routines you’d like me to keep consistent.
