About: In my 20’s during a live in role I had sole care for a rescued German Pointer requiring 8 miles exercise each day. I’ve more recently lived and worked on a farm and had full care in families regular absences of working dogs, highland cattle, chickens, kune kune piglets. Currently I work regularly as sitter for a number of labradors which included full care for a 10week old Labrador girl Lillie. This involved all aspects of toilet training and puppy care. Breeds to date as clients also include, Working Cocker Spaniels, Retrievers, Weimeraner, German Pointer, Vizlas, Boxer (puppy). I also care for two senior Labrador’s 11-14yrs of age both of whom have various health issues and hip problems. I am free to walk/sit dogs as well as walking my own working cocker spaniel along with for socialisation. I am free to dedicate my day to your pets care. I am used to staying in others homes along with their pets and keep to the pets usual routines as much as possible. I’m used to crate training, toilet training for puppies, long walks for working dogs, as well as easier walks for those with hip issues or elderly dogs.

About: I am 18 years old and have grown up with pets my whole life. I have access to a car and a full clean drivers license and therefore due to my love of animals decided a fun way to make some money before travelling with my friends next year would be to pet sit. I have pet sat in the past for friends, family and people who live in my village near bicester. I have previously looked after cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and dogs as well as having previously owned two hamsters and a labrador. I currently have a 5 month old labrador puppy who I train with my parents therefore I feel extremely qualified and experienced with looking after young pets as well as an older pets. I often walk dogs for people in my village and have therefore gained skills in getting to know each pet separately and recognising their personalities and how they like to be treated. I am confident around all animals and pets, big or small and I am currently at home doing temporary work and therefore am around and available to pet sit. I offer dog walks and home visits. I am currently working part time at my local pub as well as with a hospitality agency based in central Oxford. Therefore, I am around at times during the day to walk dogs or conduct home visits. I have a young puppy and therefore am experienced in training and taking care of all ages of dogs. I am happy to give pets as much or little attention as they like as well as walking them for a desired amount of time.

About: As a pet sitter my commitment to personalised proactive, and compassionate care rather than simply following a routine, the best pet sitters assess each pets unique needs, personality, and potential challenges to provide the best possible care. Early starts up at 4:30 each day walking and feeding my new friends tailored to their specific needs spending quality time giving physical activity and mental stimulation throughout the day Looking after their hygiene and grooming. Evening wind-down relaxation and comfort ensure pets have a calming evening routine, including quiet time and comfortable sleeping Maintaining a routine feeding, hydration, exercise and play in a lovely countryside village. Health, hygiene safety and security in a large enclosed garden. Maintaining communication sending regular updates, photos, and videos to the owner for peace of mind. Emergency preparedness knowing where the nearest vet is.

About: Dog pet care is an active and engaging experience, filled with the joys of companionship and the responsibilities of ensuring a happy and healthy life for your canine friend. It encompasses everything from daily walks and playtime to consistent training and providing a safe and comfortable home environment. Allow me to continue looking after your furry friend when you are away from home! I’m a full time nurse working out in the community. I work shifts so often have days off in the week frequently when pet owners are unable to be at home. Part of my job is to visit people’s home and provide care when they need it most. This is reflected in my pet care and sitting experience. Offering a trusting, kind and friendly environment for you and your furry companion!

About: Myself and my partner Karlo have a nearly 3 year old fun, ball loving Labrador who is our first dog together, he loves playing with other dogs and gets along with everyone he meets. We also have a little boy who is 2 years old and loves all animals especially dogs (please ensure your dog is happy around small children). We often have my sisters dog (Toller) come and stay with us too! We have been around dogs most of our lives. I, in particular used to walk and look after our neighbours dogs near my family home when they went on holiday or if they had to go into work early/come home late. We would love to look after your dog for you and promise to love them like we do our own! This will be their home away from home as even us humans deserve some holiday time! We go on 1-2 daily walks depending on the length of walk, we have a huge field about 30 seconds walk away from our house which is perfect for off lead and lots of ball throwing! We also visit another field which is a 5 minute walk away. I work from home all day so I am around to look after and care for your dog like I do for my own. I only need to go into the office a couple of times a month which I will inform you about if the dates fall into those days but if you’re happy to, I generally bring my dog with me (and yours) and we have a beautiful forest we walk in morning and evening. I will follow your routine/schedule and your rules/commands. We have a decent sized fenced garden, our lab loves being in the garden (even in winter)! We live in a cul de sac type area so the nearest road is atleast 30 metres away from our front door. If your dog has special requirements i.e. sleeps in a crate, just let me know! I am happy to adjust to whatever you need.

About: I’ve spent the last 10 years caring for dogs—mostly those of family and close friends—building trust and deep bonds along the way.

Hope I can help you with your best friend! Fenced yard, and they will never be left alone for long periods! My dog has a lot of energy so yours will be very happy!

About: I have been pet/housesitting my way around Canada, looking after dogs and cats (and the occasional chicken!) for the last year. I am now back in the UK and really missing the companionship and loving nature of dogs so would love to walk or drop in to your pets in my spare time! The animals I have looked after have ranged from super energetic 1 year old dog to super chill seniors (one senior dog I looked after for 3 months!). I can take dogs out for short walks or longer walks for up to 2.5 hours and I can also administer medication. A few of the animals I've looked after have needed medication administering, either as injections, pills or syringe so I have experience with handling that too. As a kid we were never allowed dogs or cats as pets so even before leaving for Canada, I have always been keen to petsit as I love any opportunity to spend time with animals! I have either looked after pets in their home as a house sit, had the animals at my place (I had one beautiful cat who was supposed to be staying for 3 weeks and it ended up being 3 months! ❤️), or I take dogs for walks. I'm currently not in a position to be able to do doggy day care but hopefully one day! 😁 Rest assured your pets will be in good hands with me and we'll have lots of fun together! I'm currently waiting to start a new part time job so I have lots of time to give to your pets! Once my job starts it will also be a flexible schedule. I can come to your home to spend time with your animals, let them out for pee breaks, give medication and take them for walks. I will follow any instructions you give me and make sure there is clear communication between us on what is necessary for your pets.

I have it listed on here that I don’t own any dogs, this is because they are not currently living at the home in London and are at my mum house in Oxfordshire. I can look after senior dogs and can administer medication. My schedule can be quite flexible however I am dipping in and out of shifts and different places. I am however mostly available. I am taking a year out before going to Bristol next September I live near big fields and also have sufficient land so will take the pet on multiple walks a day. I have 2 dogs at home, a 4 year old female cocker spaniel and a 2 month old female jack Russell puppy. They are both good with dogs and other animals.

About: I love animals and from a young age, I was lucky enough to have dogs, cats, horses, chickens and hamsters. As an adult I have always had a dog and a cat and so I have experience of new puppies /kittens through to elderly animals. Over the years I have also looked after neighbours, friends and family pets during holidays. Finally after many years of wanting/ thinking and deliberating..I took the plunge and since April 2024 I have been working as a professional dog walker. My dream job! Therefore, I also hold an clean DBS check, Pet business insurance and canine first aid. My Facebook page is leaps.and.leads. I am a self employed dog walker, available for regular dog walks, either one to one or with my dog Badger - a very friendly Springador (springer x lab). I am also available for pop ins and cat care and house sitting from Fri afternoons over the weekends. Whatever your requirements please just ask. We live on the edge of a village overlooking open fields with beautiful walks on the doorstep. We have one dog and 4 cats. 6 children, a nannie and a grandad. So its quite a busy home with lots of attention givers ! Obviously, coming in to your home I will be respectful and clean up any accidents, change litter, feed, water etc.

About: We have both (a fun and active couple) grown up with pets throughout our childhood and early adult life. This includes taking care of and training our sweet family dogs, including fun agility courses! As well as caring for friends’ pets. We both work from home so we are always available and able to go out for regular walks, time to play and actively look after dog(s). As we both work from home we are always able to provide an active and attentive focus on the dog(s). We have an open plan downstairs with a enclosed back garden for the dogs to roam around freely in. We also live in the countryside so there are plenty of nice walks around.

Lili H.
“I’ve been using Lili for several months now, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention they give my dog. From the very first walk, it was clear they genuinely love animals and take their job seriously. My dog always comes back happy, well-exercised, and clearly comfortable with them. Communication is great—I’m always updated with photos and notes after each walk. It’s such a relief to know my pet is in safe and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and professional, I wholeheartedly recommend Lili!!”

Yasmin M.
“Yasmin was the best house/pet sitter I have ever had. She made me feel 100% comfortable while I was super far away. She did an amazing job taking care of my senior dog, including giving him injections & dealing with some other medical stuff while I was away. She left the place better than she found it and was an absolute ray of sunshine in every encounter. If I could give her 10 stars I would. Absolutely recommend and would use her as a pet/ house sitter in a heartbeat!”
