Doggy Day Care Chelsea

About: I’ve looked after dogs since I was young - both my own dogs and those of neighbours and friends. Since moving to London and being away from my black lab back home in South Africa, I’m looking for any opportunity to get my much-needed dose of dog cuddles and daily walks! I offer a calm, home-from-home environment where your dog will feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just curling up on the sofa, I’ll make sure they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently doing a masters at UCL and work at home full time during the week with fully flexible schedule. I am at home most weekends - and other than sports commitments in the mornings on Saturday and Sunday - am usually at home for most of them. I live in a ground-floor flat with a fenced garden. I live with 3 flat mates who are all dog-lovers, and are happy to keep an eye on them if I ever need to step out the house briefly. I am 5 min walking distance from Kensington gardens, so your dog will enjoy regular walks in the park! I’ll make sure your dog feels calm, settled, and truly at home here. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or relaxing in the evening, they’ll get plenty of love and attention—especially when curled up on the couch with us during movie nights. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: For my whole life I have grown up looking after dogs - taking them on runs, walks, hikes, or just spending time with them for my family, as well as, over the past 7 years, for other families. I am friendly, wonderful with dogs, and since I have moved away from home, I am missing spending time with dogs and caring for them. During the week, I work fully remote and flexible hours, and I love walking, or taking a break to spend time with your pet! I can host / board, stay, or pop in, depending what your preference is! I am in a very pet-friendly home - while none of us have dogs or cats, we welcome any chance to spend time with yours! We have a secure flat, with good natural light and a small garden outside where I can take care of cats and dogs. I am caring, attentive and get on very well with animals.

About: Since I was a child, my family has had dogs, and I am super comfortable around them! Unfortunately, due to study and work commitments, I cannot have my own dog, but I would love to take care of someone else's and give them lots of cuddles and love. I recently finished my exams for my LLM at King's College London, and I am waiting for the next stage of my career to start in September, so I have a flexible schedule. I am currently spending most of the time at home focusing on my dissertation and would be so happy to dog sit and do dog walks during the day. I'll be happy to help you with your pets (dog or cat) while you are busy, and I will always try to make time to accommodate your busy schedule. I would like to develop long-term client relationships with fellow pet owners. So please, contact me if you need any help. I leave in a one bedroom flat, on a raised ground floor so there is no danger in my place. Also, it is considerably close to the park which is amazing to walk and exercise.

“Victoria has taken care of Albi many times and he always comes back very happy having had a fun and enriching time. I trust Victoria with him often and she always communicates very clearly, she’s also consistently available, even on short notice - she’s really been a massive help”

“Jacobo was a wonderful carer for my dog. He looked after him really well and was very reliable throughout. I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in safe hands. My dog came home happy and settled, which says everything. Jacob clearly did a great job, and I would definitely recommend him to others.”

About: I have lived with and adored dogs my whole life since being a baby, I have 6 years direct dog care experience including two years as a professional dog walker, walking up to 10 dogs per time on a daily basis whilst providing over night dog boarding at my home in Hampstead village. I want to hear all of your dog’s preference's and any special requests you have so I can provide personalised care and make them feel at home as much as possible. I live without pets at my home in central London, with immediate access to Hyde park/ Kensington Gardens where I walk twice daily. I work from home and your dog will be right by my side throughout the day, I chat to my dogs and take regular breaks from my desk. All walks will be on lead, unless otherwise arranged. I have in total 4 family dogs of varied sizes and temperaments, they live with my parents - so rest assured as your doggie does not have to share a space or be compatible with the gang I list below. Suki - a 4 year old rescue Saluki / Greyhound mix from Battersea dog home with many trauma triggers. She is introverted, nonchalant, strikingly beautiful with a very funny streak! Blue- a 1 year old ex farmers pup mix He is an energetic 24/7, amazing with kids and a total lover boy. Ripley and Jones - 2 x 8 years old brothers from a breeder- Bedlington terrier + whippet mix. Both with completely opposite personalities to each other and ever evolving in their senior years. Your dog will come with me if I need to run an errand / get coffee / leave the house. (Unless you prefer otherwise) I go to the gym for approx 1.5 hours daily so your beloved doggie will have to be ok for these 1-2 hours alone time. My apartment has a fenced secure garden and balcony with solid wall and floor (no gaps). I can provide photos of my home on booking and will of course keep you updated on the daily with doggie photos! Please do not hesitate to ask me any questions you may have. I’m currently working from home, so I will have lots of time to play and keep your dogs company, I’m available on weekends and weekdays. I have professional experience as well as previously owning dogs myself. I have a fenced garden, a balcony and I live next to a park which I visit daily! I am an active person and take regular breaks myself from my desk

“Cala is lovely and friendly person who took great care of our petite dog. She kept me updated and picked and dropped our dog. Will definitely use her again. Thanks, highly recommend”

“Amazing sitter our dog loved her! Being a GSP Coco requires a lot of exercise and Vanessa ensured that she was well and truly exhausted at the end of the day. She also kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos so we were totally at ease leaving our furry baby in her care.”

About: A lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dog of all sizes-walks, playtime, cuddles, and everything in between. I’ve always loved taking care of family and friends dogs when they’ve travelled. I have a very flexible work schedule working from home 4 days a week. I go on multiple walks a day, so having a dog accompany me would just be a way to brighten my day! I live in an open spacious flat in Chelsea. While a I do not have a garden attached the house there are lots of parks and wonderful areas where I live.

About: I share my life with my toy poodle, so I know how much dogs need consistency, mental stimulation, and real one-on-one attention, not just a quick trip round the block. My schedule is flexible, which means I can offer walks at times that actually suit you and your dog's routine. I'm calm, attentive, and happiest outdoors, and I treat every dog in my care the way I'd want my own treated with love, patience, exercise, and a lot of affection. I'm available to board dogs at weekends and on select weekdays. Please get in touch and we can work out what fits your schedule. If I'm looking after your dog in your home, I'll follow your instructions to the letter and treat your home with the same respect I'd want shown to mine. If your dog stays with me, I'll follow any specific care instructions you give me to keep them safe and comfortable, just as I would with my own. Calm, reliable, and genuinely dog-obsessed. Your dog is in good hands with me.

About: Hello! I have always loved being around animals, I have had dogs, cats, chickens and unfortunately since I moved to the UK with university and work, I did not have as much time as before to be around them, and dogs in particular have a special place in my heart. Spending time with them, understanding their personalities, and giving them the attention they need is something I genuinely enjoy. Becoming a pet sitter allows me to combine that passion with the opportunity to help owners feel confident and relaxed when they need someone responsible to look after their pets. I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is always to offer a calm, safe and affectionate environment where every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I work from home most of the week, which means I am around and able to give plenty of attention to your pet throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule, so weekdays and weekends both work well for me. Whether it's cuddles, company, or regular walks your dog will never feel left alone or overlooked. I will make sure they're well cared for and happy! My flat is calm and suitable for short daytime care, however I do not have a garden and I share the flat with flatmates. Because of that, I am very flexible and can happily come to your home as well, if your dog needs more space of feels better in a familiar environment. I'll always choose the option the keeps your pet relaxed and well looked after.

“Klara is an awesome dogsitter, Rio loves her and she takes great care of him, regular updates, makes sure he’s eating properly etc. I am very careful with him and would recommend her to anyone who loves their dog.”

About: Hi! I’m Jillian — your go-to pet sitter and dog walker for walks, home visits, cuddles and loving care. I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and I truly adore animals of all sizes and personalities. I currently live in Paddington (near the station). I don’t have pets here yet and really miss my two fur babies in Brazil — which means I now have an infinite supply of affection, long walks and belly rubs ready to share! Whether you’re nearby or a little further out, I’m happy to take your dog on exciting walks, play at the park, or keep your cat company while you’re away. I’m an affectionate, organised and tidy carer who always goes the extra mile to make pets feel safe, relaxed and loved. You can expect regular updates, plus plenty of photos and videos so you never miss a moment 📸🐾 If you’re looking for a reliable dog walker or regular pet sitter, feel free to get in touch — I currently have availability for ongoing bookings. I look forward to meeting your furry family and can’t wait to walk, play and take care of your best friend 🐶🐱 Many thanks! 🤍 I’m available every morning and again in the late afternoons and evenings, including weekends. I organise my schedule carefully around pet care to make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise and love. Living near Paddington station allows me to travel easily to nearby areas. Safety and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I carefully follow owners’ instructions regarding routines, feeding and house rules, and use secure leads or harnesses during walks while choosing safe routes. I take time to build trust with each pet, especially nervous ones, and always use positive reinforcement. I respect clients’ homes and provide regular updates with photos and videos so owners feel reassured.

“Varenya took care of Lenox for one day. She is friendly and was very enthusiastic about having Lenox around. They went for walks in the park and she sent pictures during the day, which was very appreciated!”

About: Hi, my name is Monica! I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs -we always had multiple at once, so I learned early on what it takes to care for different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I spent the last 5 years living abroad, which meant I couldn’t have a dog of my own, and my current lifestyle still doesn’t quite allow for it. So I’m looking to spend time with dogs who need care while I get my fix of the companionship I’ve been missing. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves dogs and will treat yours like part of the family, I’d love to pet-sit for them! PS our flat is of a decent size and benefits from access to a 3-acre private garden which the neighborhood dogs thoroughly enjoy! I’m fully available for pet siting during the weekend! I’m free to accommodate to your dog. I love taking them for walks and playing with them at home. I live in a two-story flat with access to a 3 acre private garden. I like to understand the dog’s routines and habits to ensure my sitting accommodates to their needs. I’m happy to take them for short walks every 2-3 hours and two long walks a day (depending on the breed/size and owner’s instructions).

“Emmitt had a great time with Karen & I felt safe with him in her care! She was responsive, her home was clean & safe, & he seemed happy!”

“Doria stepped in at the last minute when we had an emergency. It took away any extra stress knowing that Rosie is happy to be with her, and that she will be so well looked after. Thank you Doria.”

Jill T.

“Carly was wonderful with Radley, took him on a lovely walk, sent lots of photos and was really flexible, helping us out at the last minute! Would absolutely recommend!”

Amy A.

“Spotty being a difficult dog (cute but reactive) I was very happy and lucky to find Hallie. It's not the first time she looks after Spotty and he is now excited whenever we arrive close to her flat. He had a great day with her and will be spending more time with her!”
