Pet Sitting 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.”

“Susan was able to step in last minute to look after my cats. She sent me updates and clearly cares about the animals she visits. Thanks Susan.”

About: I have my own fox red labrador who we have raised since a puppy to be a very lovely and well mannered dog, I am very proud of her (and myself!) I attended puppy classes with her so have some basic skills in training and understanding of dog behaviour. This has sparked a passion for all dogs (yes I am the annoying woman that talks to them all!) I have walked dogs including a big bouncy golden retriever and a nervous collie mix. I am a registered volunteer with an animal charity for dog walking/pet sitting and am first aid trained. I now have time during the week and some weekends and evenings and would like to dedicate them to your dogs and other pets. I can sometimes be available at short notice. Ideally I would want a free meet and greet first to make sure your dog and I are going to be best mates :) I have at least one week day off per week and some working from home days which will allow me to do some dog walks during the week. I also have some weekends. My own dog is very socialised if you wanted a friend for yours I'd be happy to arrange a meet to see if they could be walked together. I care for pets according to your instruction and their routine. Dog walks are always on lead in the first instance, if you are happy for your dog to be off lead I will only do this once we have build trust and a bond that means this is safe.

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 provide dog walks, pet sittings and even jogging sessions for pups who need that extra boost. Helping pets stay active, happy and cared for is my aim with every visit - making your days a little easier too. I am a 27 years old girl from Spain who moved to the UK almost five years ago and I can’t recall a time before moving to this country where I didn’t have animals at home. So I am really grateful to everyone who has trusted me and allowed me to have fun and cuddles with their furry family members over these years! I’m currently studying online and I have a very flexible schedule. Pet sitting and dog walking is something I would love to do forever if life doesn’t get on the way. That’s why I am available full time and at short notice. I offer reliable and caring pet and house sitting services to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet Sitting Services: Overnight Stays: I stay in your home so your pets can remain in their familiar and stress-free environment. This service includes two walks. Daily Lunchtime Visits: A midday visit for feeding, letting out, playtime, and companionship—tailored to your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs. Fitness Runs: I enjoy running and high intensity training on my free time. So I am the perfect training buddy for those dogs that need a good run.

“Ellie, is extremely reliable and my dachshund settled with her very quickly. Had full trust in her leaving him with her. Highly recommend”

About: My family has had dogs my entire life, so I grew up caring for them from a young age. This experience has made me very confident and comfortable in taking care of dogs, understanding their routines, and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and in-home care during weekdays and weekends, and I always make sure pets receive consistent care, playtime, and companionship. I always prioritize pets’ safety, comfort, and well-being. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets feel secure at all times. I supervise interactions, respect routines, and provide lots of attention, affection, and responsible care whether in my home or the pet owner’s home.

“Tanya was great! She's really good with Mango, understands her behaviours and keeps us updated with how it goes and cute pictures. Would definitely recommend her!”

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.

About: I have grown up around dogs, all across my family, looked after many for weeks at a time, taken them on walks for family members and for friends. Recently I have house sat for a few people who have cats too and found it just as easy. I operate clear communication with owners and make sure any requests are met and social requirements for the pets. Put 1 year experience because it doesn’t specify if cumulative or not. Will take your dog out for runs if you want I work at a cafe on a few days of the week. Hopefully going to be moving to a military role, which is why this is perfect for me for the short term. I am available most days as my current rota comes on a week by week, so I can book days where needed. I do not offer my own home but with owners homes, I will do my own quick check to make sure no issues such as holes in the fences or anything like that. I also double check how to do the locks and if there are any cat flaps or outdoor dog houses. Food timings are essential so I stick to the same time within 30 minutes each day, unless asked otherwise

“Loved getting updates! Will definitely ask Tania to look after our cats again”

Your dog can expect long morning, afternoon, and evening walks to the park and plenty of play time! We have a fenced yard and secure door for your dog to play in and we frequently leave our door open for the dogs to go in and out of the outdoors as they please/as needed. I currently work from home but am still able to provide care and attention to any dogs who are around to stay for the day! We have a fenced in garden and open plan space so are able to keep an eye on dogs quite easily and make sure all is well.

About: I work from home and have always had a passion for caring for animals, so pet care allows me to combine both. I absolutely adore both cats and dogs and take great pride in providing a safe, loving environment for them. I’ve grown up with pets and have personally owned two dogs, including a Romanian rescue with reactivity and guarding behaviours, whom I successfully trained. This experience has given me a strong understanding of different temperaments, body language and the patience needed to care for each dog as an individual. I currently own a greyhound and regularly dog sit, walk, and board for friends, giving me hands on experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. I’m fortunate to live right next to a park, which allows for plenty of long walks and I also have a fully secure garden where dogs can relax and play safely. My home is a comfortable two bedroom house, offering a calm and welcoming space. Your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and care while staying with me, and their safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I also enjoy animal photography, so I’ll be sure to keep you updated with regular photos during their stay. I work full time at home. I can take your dog out for lovely long walks with my dog or on its own as I’m right next to the park!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 7, and they’ve always been part of my family. I currently have a 2-year-old dog named Toby, so I understand the daily joys and responsibilities of caring for pets. Friends, family, and neighbours have trusted me for years to walk, play with, feed, and love their dogs as if they were my own. I have experience looking after dogs with health complications and am confident in providing medicine when needed. I’ve also trained all of my family’s dogs in the basics, from sit and stay to good leash manners. My whole family are massive animal lovers, and over the years we’ve had everything from goats and chickens to cats and more – so I’m comfortable and confident caring for a wide range of animals. As my partner works shifts, I have a lot of flexible free time – and I’d love to spend it walking, cuddling, and playing with your dogs. My partner and I absolutely love animals - we are the type of people to take treats for stray cats and dogs whilst on holiday. My dream is to open up my own doggy day care! I’m about most weekends and flexible during the week depending on the days I’m working in London. If you would like to meet before booking, I am happy to do so! I’ll likely have Toby with me so your doggo’s will have great company with us both! I’m a homeowner of a small house with a fenced garden in the by the Chelmsford bus and the train station - I’m walking distance to Bunny walks, Central and Admiral park. We also often go to Hylands for walks. I always prioritise your pet’s safety, whether in my home or yours, and follow any instructions you provide. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including those with medical needs, and can administer medication confidently. Any questions let me know!

About: I am a kind, caring and experienced pet sitter. I have looked after my family's dogs and cats for 5+ years. I pride myself on being a conscientious, caring and attentive dog and cat sitter. My family loves animals and love caring for them. My husband and I have been together for 10 years, and we have been living in Chelmsford for 5 years. We have two beautiful boys in our home who are comfortable around small dogs and cats. We have a secure garden, no pets and do not smoke. We ask that any dogs or cats are comfortable and safe around young children. I’m currently on maternity leave so I am home full time. We are up early with two young boys and spend lots of time outdoors. I have a fully secured garden so your dog can go in and out whenever needs to go to the toilet. I am available to care and give affection as I am based at home full time.

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.

“Barbara took care of our little dog and 2 indoor cats while we were away. She is so thoughtful and responsible. We appreciated the care she took to meet with us and our pets before the actual date of our trip. Barbara was kind to send us updates and photos while we were away. She was everything we were hoping for. We are very happy to have found a wonderful pet sitter!”
