“Diana, you are fantastic! We have never left our little sausage Jumbo before and we’re really worried about going away. But from the time me and Jumbo met you I realised you were a kind and lovely lady who loves animals. Jumbo loved you too. Your regular updates and videos really stopped us from worrying and helped us enjoy our 40th wedding anniversary away. We have found someone special to look after Jumbo in the future!! Thank you Diana”

“My Milo was really happy with Charlotte, she took care of him very well. I can leave my Milo with her without any question. She took him for walk and let him allowed on Sofa and bed which felt Milo more homely environment with what he is used to. I would recommend her highly.”

About: I absolutely love dogs and was lucky enough to have one of my own for nearly 14 years. I have looked after many friends' dogs in my own home prior to having a dog and during. I've also worked in dog sanctuaries, looking after all different types of dogs from teeny to huge, with varying needs including challenging behaviours and medical requirements. As a previous dog owner, I know how tricky it is to get cover for your dogs when you need to be somewhere else or want to go away but feel as though you can't due to having dogs and I am here to help with that! Dogs are welcome all around my house (but I would be happy to follow whatever is your routine at home). I have a fenced off garden for them to play in and there are long and exciting nature walks starting just 1 minute's walk from my house. I am happy to follow any instructions you may have to ensure consistency for your pet and to make sure they feel as settled as possible. I work part time and can work remotely whenever is required. I am able to take your dog for as many walks as you like and ensure they are kept happy with play and attention. The day's structure will always depend on what works best for you and your dog's needs. I have a fenced garden and a safe home for your pet. I am happy to follow any instructions you may have to ensure I am providing consistency and help settle in your dog.

About: I've had dogs of varying breeds my whole life, and so I'm comfortable looking after any dog. I regularly look after dogs for friends and family with the help of my friendly Cavapoo, Nellie. I treat all dogs like I would my own, with full access to the house and garden and a lot of love. I love walking and so am always keen to exercise dogs and give them a rewarding day. I work from home three days a week (Tues/Weds/Thurs) and so can be flexible throughout the week as well as on weekends. Dogs fit into our lives seemlessly and so we are always happy to have them in the house. I have a fenced garden and a friendly Cavapoo, Nellie who is always happy to share toys and keep dogs company whilst with us. I treat other's dogs as if they were my own; with a lot of love, attention and walks.

“Emine and family are amazing with Toby! It’s his favourite family to stay with, he’s always so excited to see them and has the most amazing time. Highly recommend and I know Toby is looking forward to his next stay! Thank you!”

“Nicole is fantastic. We’ve booked her multiple times now for overnight stays and get wonderful updates and always know our dog is having a wonderful time!”

“Karen looked after our Staff overnight for a few days. Our dog got on really well with Karen’s own dogs and settled in well - he was clearly well looked after with lots of walks, love and attention. Would highly recommend Karen to anyone to look after their dogs as I would definitely be using Karen again in the future. Thanks again Karen”

About: We aim to provide a happy and safe environment for your dog with activities and walks they will enjoy and ensure they are happy and content. I have many years experience with my own and other peoples dogs, having lived with dogs from 6 years old and having my first dog walking business at 13. As every dog is different I will listen to you and be guided by how you would like me to take care of your dog and try to ensure that they have a safe, loving and fun experience. I currently work part-time from home with flexible hours, so will have plenty of time to play with and care for your dog. We have many beautiful areas to enjoy walks nearby. We have a fenced garden and a friendly loving dog to keep your dog company. I am confident with crating your dog if needed and am happy with administrating medicines if required.

“My old girl very rarely needs to be cared for and I was a nervous, first time Rover user. Alys and her partner were able to look after her on short notice and assuaged all my worries! I got regular daily updates and photos and my girl came back just as happy as when I left her. Thank you both and thank you Millie for sharing your home and parents!”

About: I have experience caring for neighbours and family members dogs while they are away or at work, including feeding, walking, playtime, and companionship. I also own a playful 2.5 year old toy cockapoo, giving me daily hands on experience with caring for dogs, maintaining routines, and creating a safe, loving environment. I work from home Thursday to Friday from 9–5, which means dogs are rarely left alone and receive plenty of attention throughout the day. My routine includes a morning walk before work, a lunchtime walk, and another walk in the evening, along with playtime, companionship, and regular toilet breaks to ensure dogs stay happy, active, and comfortable. Over the weekend, it’s park fun, we go over to play fetch and have a long run around. I provide a safe, caring, and comfortable environment where dogs can feel relaxed and at home. I have both a small and large dog bed available to suit different breeds and sizes, along with plenty of toys for playtime and stimulation throughout the day. Dogs will receive regular walks, attention, affection, and supervision, and I always aim to follow their usual routine to help them feel settled, happy, and well cared for.

About: I have many years of experience in caring for dogs both through having my own dogs and regularly caring for those of friends and families. My house is really welcoming to other dogs and a safe place for them to come and stay. My labrador Alba is as chilled as they come and we enjoy some lovely daily walks in the surrounding area. Recently semi retired so primarily based at home. Will get out for a walk every day and love to interact with dogs throughout too. All people living in house are dog lovers. I have a fenced garden and a super friendly 9 year old lab for added companionship. I enjoy getting out daily for walks. The house is a busy one with 3 teenage children, all who have been brought up around dogs.

“Cider had a lovely time staying with Devianna. She is clearly and animal lover and gave him so much fuss and attention. He had long walks and I was able to completely relax knowing he was taken care of. Have already revoked and would 100% recommend.”

“Alice was amazing with Ziggy. Her little boy had bought him a ball to play with, and he had become so attached to a soft toy belonging to one of her boys that she gave it to him to take home. She immediately felt like a friend and that is really important, especially if you’re leaving your dog with someone you don’t know. Lovely atmosphere, lovely family, photos of Ziggy whilst I was away. If you need someone to look after your dog, you won’t do better than Alice and her family.”

Elisabeth R.

“Susan was absolutely fantastic to work with! She took incredible care of our precious baby, Nika, while we were away. The photos and updates Susan sent were wonderful, and Nika was thriving under her attention. We highly recommend Susan for any cat-sitting needs - she is trustworthy, reliable, and clearly very passionate about animals. Five stars isn't enough – I'd give Susan ten stars if I could!❤️👏🏻”

About: Hi there! We’re Leia and Dan, a young couple who loves animals. We’re currently in a flat, so we’re looking to share our space with your furry friends to get a flavour of what it’d be like for us in the future. We live in a comfortable space with a balcony for fresh air throughout the day. Both working hybrid work patterns so one of us will be at home throughout the day to have cuddles, belly rubs and walks. Having grown up with cats, and regularly looked after my parents cats, we know they have their boundaries, but love to have attention (on their terms) and have that perfect chin scratch. When boarding cats, we wouldn’t have the balcony open to ensure they are kept safe. We naturally love to be outside, whether that’s walking or camping. So, if you decide to board your pooch, trust they will be taken on many walks (it keeps us healthy!) to explore local routes. Whether it’s a walk, a day, a weekend, a week, or more, we’re happy to discuss looking after your pet. Both of us work hybrid work patterns so one of us will be at home throughout the day to have cuddles, belly rubs and walks throughout the week. Our weekends change depending on the weather and social plans. Sometimes we stay at home watching movies and playing board games, and other times we like to venture out and explore a new walking routes and stop mid way for a lunch break. So we can accommodate our schedule depending on your pet. We have a balcony for fresh air which we will keep open if we are looking after dogs (and a watchful eye at all times). For cats, we wouldn’t have these open but instead keep our windows ajar so the fresh air can still flow in but they are kept safe. If looking after pets in your home, we take security very seriously. Ensuring that any doors are locked and keys kept safe until you return.

About: I've spent years caring for my own pets and currently share my home with three dogs and a cat (and I still want more). So I've had lots of hands-on experience with different ages, care needs, pooping abilities and personalities (and they certainly all have them). I'm comfortable with different feeding schedules, daily exercise needs, puppy training and creating a safe environment for pets whilst giving lots of attention and love - they deserve it so much. As a pet owner who has used sitters and boarding services myself, I understand how important trust, communication, and reliability are. I know what it's like to leave a beloved pet in someone else's care, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. The best part of pet care for me is the relationship you build with animals. There's something special about earning their trust and seeing them become comfortable around you. There really is no pay grade or profession that can beat that for me - just give me all the cuddles and wagging tails please. Pet care is already a central part of my daily routine. My days revolve around caring for my own three dogs and cat, including walks, feeding, playtime, training, and making sure they are happy and comfortable. Having stepped away from my career in accounting to pursue a more balanced and rewarding lifestyle focused on animals, I have the time and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. This means pets in my care benefit from plenty of companionship, supervision, exercise, and affection, rather than being left alone for long periods. Whether it's sticking to established routines, providing regular walks, or simply offering extra cuddles and reassurance, I enjoy making pet care a natural and rewarding part of every day. I believe pets are happiest when they feel safe, comfortable, and can maintain as much of their normal routine as possible. Before any booking, I like to learn about each pet's personality, habits, preferences, and any special requirements so I can provide care tailored to their individual needs. In my home, pets are treated as part of the family and are supervised closely. I have experience managing a multi-pet household with my own three dogs and cat, and I always ensure introductions are handled carefully and at a pace that keeps everyone comfortable. Fresh water, regular exercise, playtime, rest, and plenty of affection are all part of the daily routine. If caring for pets in their owner's home, I respect their established routines and environment, following feeding schedules, walk requirements, and any instructions provided to help pets feel secure while their owners are away. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout a stay, giving owners peace of mind that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Tanya has looked after Kobe so well that I would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends. I personally will not hesitate to use Tanya to baby sit my furry baby Kobe Datta. Thank you Tanya.”
