10. elisabeth s.
About: Since the age of 10 I have my own horse and care for our family dog. I always loved being with and around any animals. At the moment i can't have a dog due to university and i am going back home over holidays. I am a second year university student at Hartpury for equine sciences and have lectures from Mondays to thursdays. I would love to care and be around dogs again. When walking or sitting the dog, it is very important to me that the dogs are happy and feel safe. My priority would always be to make sure that the dogs is safe, and if they don't feel well to look after them.
11. Tyra E.
About: I've always adored dogs but lost all confidence when I was hurt by one as a child. I loved cats and would take care of all the neighbourhood ones. As an adult I slowly introduced myself to family/friends dogs and realised how much love they have to give. It makes me so happy when they're excited to see you. I don't have a garden so my family can't have our own. I'm out of work as a mum but looking for something I love which lead me here, to gain experience before I start a business. I walk everywhere by choice and love the countryside, I'm ready to meet new friends to join me. I'm a mum of two children free around my partners shift work. One week mornings free, following afternoon/evenings free. Further availability from September. Weekends most availability. I will always listen to your dogs individual needs and protect it as my own. I will also take cute photos. DBS checked, first aid training course to follow.
12. Anne-Marie G.
“When I needed someone to pop in and check up on my dog I knew I could trust Anne-marie. She is very accommodating and was there when I needed a helping hand with my dalmatian. Highly recommend!”

15. Amy T.
About: I’ve looked after so many different breeds of dog for family, friends and neighbours, including my own pug and frenchie. I’m confident in applying topics medication, grooming and bathing I work flexibly full time, working from home 4 days a week. I go on daily hour long lunchtime walks anyway, as well as being free most evenings and weekends I’m comfortable in crating and grooming pets, as well as giving them peace or cuddles when they need or want it. I think I’m quite good at recognising animals signals
16. Nathan T.
“Nathan is a very energetic and responsible dog owner who enjoys playing with and taking his own dog Banjo for walks in the park and countryside. He has often looked after my dog Teddy (a cockerpoo) overnight and taken him for walks. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter/walker.”
17. Nadia D.
“Nadia has been looking after Ripley for almost 3 years now and Ripley adores her. She has her for full days during the week and at the weekend. Ripley needs a lot of exercise and attention and I know that Nadia is able to offer both. She is a godsend to Ripley and I am lucky enough now to call her a friend.”
18. Emily P.
“Emily is very engaging, easy to chat to and clearly loves dogs! I feel confident leaving my dog with her, she is aware of what it means to care for dogs. I’m happy to have found her!”
19. Lily J.
“Lily is absolutely brilliant, she's very natural with animals and Diesel was instantly so relaxed with her. Lily came for a meet and greet and she was so friendly and professional we felt straight away that we could trust her and booked for her a walk the following week. Diesel isn't great at interacting with other dogs, but Lily was very confident in handling her and they had a wonderful time - Diesel was panting very happily when she got back! We've booked for Lily to housesit for us soon and we know Diesel will be very safe and happy in her care. Would 100% recommend!”
20. James H.
“I got a text update letting me know how the dog walk went and James was very responsive to my messages :)”
