Pet Sitting in Chelmsford

“Booked at the last minute, Tilly was fabulous, she came round the night before to met the dogs and see where everything was. The dogs loved Tilly and had a great walk with her. Would highly recommend her and certainly book her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14. At home there is myself husband and our mature dog savvy daughter. We have both of our sister dogs regularly - which you will see in our pics. My friends and family have relied on us to show affection and cuddles as well as life necessity of walking, feeding and bathing their furry friends. My husband and myself both have experience with rescue dogs too. We don’t currently have a dog of our own because we work 2 late days. But the other 5 days we are available for doggy day care and for boarding. We have a large garden and a huge field about a 3 minute walk away so your pets will always get what exercise they need, depending on what they need. We have a large downstairs with a comfy sofa. We will follow the rules you set, when it comes to where your pet is allowed. The same as if we are in your home, we will follow your pet rules.

“Lauren was absolutely brilliant when she popped in to see our cat, Pudding. She sent me reassurance that he was okay, and our house was okay too as he’s an indoor only boy, so knowing he was safe when she got there and left meant a lot to me. She played with him, sent lots of photos, and - as this was her first time sitting - let me know that she’d just sat with him when he’d wanted to chill, talking to him and making him feel familiar and safe. We’ll definitely be having her look after him more regularly (lucky for him)! Can’t recommend highly enough!”

About: I have assisted with pet sitting in my own home since I was a teenager and am now looking to continue in my spare time. Our family dog is a 15 year old labradoodle that I have walked and taken care of since he was a puppy. I also have experience going to family friends houses to feed both cats and dogs as well as exercising them. I have just graduated from university and have ample spare time and flexibility to take care of your pets. This means I can adapt to last minute bookings or changes in schedules. I will endeavour to ensure the safety of your pets and will pay particular attention to the way you want me to look after them.

“Antonia is brilliant! Gives the cats a good fuss, which they would love, and keeps us informed of everything going on. I’m sure our cats will look forward to seeing her again :-) thanks so much! X”

About: I have nearly always had a dog. I have had dogs with lots of energy and I have had dogs that need their own space. I can administer medication, feed dogs using a variety of brands. I am happy to groom and will give tooth brush a good go too. I am a primary school reception teacher who has some spare time in the summer. I do not have any children and I live with my boyfriend who helps we take care of my pets when I am not there. My house is pet friendly, high fences in the garden which has two gates to prevent any pets escaping. I have CCTV everywhere around the house.

About: I’ve looked after dogs of all ages since I was a young child. I treat every dog like family, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Including walking, playing, lots of love and cuddles, feeding and handling medications. I’m currently working part-time and looking to achieve my dog grooming qualifications. I am available throughout the week, including mornings afternoons and evenings, and can do various weekends. I have a semi-detached house with a large floor space, with a fenced garden to keep your pup safe. I have plenty of dog toys and treats.

“Kelly was great popping in to see Mylo on a very hot day. Mylo was well looked after & enjoyed the company. Would definitely recommend. Thank you very much!”

About: Hi everyone About us, I’m in my late 50’s and my other half early 60’s and fully retired so we’re both on hand for the babies 24/7 🥳 We are both life long animal lover and have happily worked with them for many many years now so are pretty clued up. I was bought up with lots of cats, rabbits, and both large and small breed dogs too, with my 5 siblings our house was beautifully busy. My dad spent many years training and re training working German Shepherd Dogs that all lived inside the home with our family. My mum was passionate about her work in rescue, rehabilitating wildlife as well as pets so safe to say my love for animals comes from them both. We have over 40 years of experience in caring for pets, mainly cats and dogs, and also have a lot of experience with those that need that little bit more. We have a dog stroller for smaller dogs convalescing or those less mobile so nobody needs to miss out. Each day will tailored to the individual after discussions with the parents to ensure all needs are fully catered for. We are happy to feed any diet including raw which our own dogs always had. Just the two of us at home along with our confident 14 year old rescue cat. Parents who trust us with their babes can be 100% sure that their welfare is, and will always be absolutely paramount! I used to foster for The Dogs Trust (The Freedom Project) so have lots of experience with pets that may be nervous about being away from their family, are anxious or have things like food issues and separation anxiety. It is our job to make sure that your baby is comfortable with us and in turn gain our trust too which is obviously very important to us. As pet owners ourselves, we’re fully aware of the fears and worries that go with leaving them with someone new and will do everything in our power to work with you on this. We provide lots of fun, love and attention to all of our charges, and quiet time if needed too which equates to a very content and happy pet. We are fully insured to transport your angels so one less thing for you to worry about. Please free to get in touch if you’d like anymore information or to ask any questions. For drop ins and visits, they’re also individually tailored and will cover for what ever your pet needs. Some babes will just want feeding, litter trays done and simple checks but some will need lots of play time or attention, any visit will be individually set up for the needs of the pet and family. Take care 🐾 🐾🐾 We stay with the pets all day so plenty of time for physical and mental stimulation as well as lots of cuddles and chilled time when needed. One of us will be around all of the time so they will never be lonely. The time spent with them is theirs so it really is whatever they like doing.

“Super reliable, truth worthy and clearly liked by Atlas - couldn’t ask for more!”

About: I’ve been sporadically involved in pet care for the last 10 years. I dog sat for friends and friends of friends whenever I could as my source of small income in high school in between sports seasons. I recently worked at a doggy day care for a summer where I took care of every size and breed of dog possible. It was my favorite job despite it being overwhelming and I miss my doggies. I am a graduate student and I am involved in competitive volleyball. I am available everyday as I have no classes for the remainder of my degree. I have volleyball 2-3 times a week in the evening. On the weekends I either play beach volleyball in London for 4-5 hours or do a Pilates class for 1 hour. I realise that I am a guest in their home and that their space needs to be respected. I am comfortable with specific feeding routines and giving medications if necessary. I don’t mind sleeping away from them or with them close. If they need to be kept in a crate for certain reasons I am comfortable placing them there. I care for them as if you never left.

About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am passionate about providing high-quality care for your beloved pets. I’ve worked with everything from playful puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler touch, and I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. My experience extends beyond dogs, I also care for cats, reptiles, and even horses. I hold a Diploma in Animal Management and a Degree in Equine Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, so I bring both practical knowledge and formal training to every job. Whether it’s administering medication, recognizing signs of stress, or giving your pets the companionship and routine they thrive on, I’m here to help. You can rest assured that your animals will be treated with patience, love, and respect. I have just completed university and honestly miss my pets at home. I am used to dog walking and pet sitting whilst I am with family in London but as I have living in the Chelmsford area I miss my usual routine of looking after animals. In my own home I have a decent sized back garden which is fenced off securely, I do not have my own crate in my house. I will always treat your home with the same level of respect I treat my own.

About: I have grown up around pets and animals. I have my own miniature dachshund who is a loving and needy character. I am the girl that will go up to dogs at a party and stay there. I live with just Luna at a house so would love to open my home to help look after others dogs! It sounds like a dream and I work from home so will be here at all times. I will give regular updates via pictures and messages if requested as wouldn’t want to hassle you unless you wanted to! I used to have a childhood dog which was a Shih Tzu called Stanley that I would look after at home. I look after my Nans dog which is a Yorkshire terror when she goes on holiday. All rounded take them for walks play with them clean them, etc… I currently have an office job where I work from home so will be home majority of the time to provide the care needed for a dog and give them the attention they need! My house is a safe home nothing is lying around and my dog is a loving character just barks at the door at new people haha she’s only small though and wouldn’t do anything shes so loving! Takes her a min to adjust to a new dog but she will play after they have bonded.

“Megan was fantastic! Came in daily for a week and looked after our little kitten. Played with him relentlessly and lots of cuddles… kept me updated with pictures every day. Will 100% be using her again :)”

About: Hello, I'm Charlie I'm a dedicated and experienced pet sitter who has spent the past two years in Athens, Greece, caring for, boarding, and walking dogs full-time with my partner, Milana. Pet care isn’t just a job for me—it’s a true passion. I love building trust with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. Pet walking and pet sitting. I’ve had the pleasure of looking after many breeds, including Miniature Schnauzers, French Bulldogs, Miniature Pinschers, American Bulldogs, Huskies, Giant Schnauzers, Cocker Spaniels, Spitz, Poodles, Kokonis, Segugio Italianos, Labradors, Shepherds, and many more! No matter their size, energy level, or personality, I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs. In addition to dogs, I have plenty of experience caring for cats and birds. I’m especially skilled with parrots, as I used to own and train them myself. Whether it’s feeding, training, or just providing company, I know how to keep them engaged and content. I understand that parrots are truly unique, and have important dietry needs and I am fully aware of the long list of do's and don'ts including toxic things in our lives that can effect them. Currently, I’m based in the UK while Milana is in Poland, which is why I’m creating this account. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and loving to take care of your pet, I’d be more than happy to help. Feel free to send me a message—I can’t wait to meet your furry (or feathered) friend. I work on a changing weekly Rota, meaning that I'd be more than happy to take care of pets anytime I'm not working. Completely free Thursday Friday Saturday this week for any and all services except at my own home. Feel free to contact me with the details of your booking and if i am free I'd love to look after your pet. I have had many years of experience as a pet carer. I understand behaviours, diet and I will only ever be pet sitting due to the fact that I cannot have pets in my own residence. Rest assure that I will follow your guidelines precisely and take wonderful care of your pets in your absence.

About: We, Gabriella and Ben, have grown up with both cats and dogs of all kinds, taking care of them from puppies / kittens to old age. Only two years ago we spent hours in the rain toilet training the family puppy.... didn't regret a second! We treat any pet like we would our own and will give them lots of love and attention. We both mostly work from home and can take out for multiple walks, we have parks and lovely tracks nearby! We currently work full time but Gabriella works from home, as do I most days. We are unable to get a pet of our own at the moment so looking to meet some lovely pets and provide good service while doing so! We have a very secure flat and building, a balcony which is fenced off with a tall glass panel, though we would refrain from letting pets out there as a safety measure. We have a lovely green space outside our building, and plenty of park options around us too!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old and I have trained my chihuahua since a pup. My favourite thing to do is be around my dog and help her learn and gain skills. She’s my bestfriend and she has really helped my mental health to. My favourite thing to do is be outside in the nature and my dog has kept me company doing so and we love going for walkies and spending time together playing in the park. I have always wanted a dog business and I started by walking my neighbours dog and I had a great review from the owner and it’s inspired me to open myself up more and bring my passion to life.🤍 your dog will be so safe and loved around me with lots of cuddles. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to care for the pups and to give them all the attention they deserve🩷 I live in a duplex flat and it is very secure and we can always go out for walkies and I can use a crate for the pups if needed and this is what they are used to. But I give the fur baby’s as much freedom as I can. I have done my pet first aid and CPR too for my own sake and for your reassurance.
