“Lottie loves Nathalie and is very happy to be left in her care. She gets lots of attention and affection from her and is very tired when we return 😬”

About: I have five years of hands-on experience caring for dogs & cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve worked with everything from playful puppies/kittens who need structure and basic training, to senior dogs & cats who require a gentler pace, medication, and extra comfort. I understand that dogs & cats thrive on routine, attention, and trust, and I pride myself on providing reliable, personalised care that keeps them happy and relaxed while their owners are away. Whether it’s going for walks, reinforcing good behavior, or simply spending quality time together, I treat every dog & cat like part of the family. Pet parents can feel confident knowing their furry friend is in experienced, loving hands. I’m currently working part time from home - hours are only 6 am till 11:30 am. which gives me plenty of time to spend time with the furry friends! When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise needs, and medication instructions exactly as provided, and I always take time to understand each pet’s unique habits and preferences. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also keep the home tidy and secure, maintain open communication with pet parents through regular updates and photos, and treat the space with the same care and respect I would my own. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care that allows both pets and owners to feel completely at ease while they’re apart.

“Another great overnight sit in our home by Jade for our senior dog Tin Tin who gets very anxious in new environments - thanks Jade for keeping me informed and keeping Tin Tin happy and loved.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Emily. She was attentive to our dog’s needs and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She also left our home spotless and was very respectful of our space. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!!”

About: I have always had pets, we currently have a cat, Flossie, a dog, Millie, and a hamster, Milo. I love to watch each animals individual personality I have a very flexible work schedule so I will fit my work commitments around caring for your pets. Your pets will always be my priority I will always ensure that gates are closed and the property is secured after I leave. Your pet will get my complete attention during my visit

About: Between me and my husband we have years of experience of looking after friends, families and our own pets. We have recently been walking a doggy from a 'borrow my doggy' website which is great fun. We are also recently registered at a rescue centre so will be looking after dogs and cats with different personalities and temperaments from all sorts of backgrounds. Last month we attended and passed a dog first aid course and are also enrolled on several online doggy related courses which is proving to be very interesting. We lost our two doggies last year which has left a big hole in our Iives. With both of us approaching our 50's it made us reevaluate alot of things and so we chose to pack our mundane jobs in and go travelling around the UK in our van on a few adventures. We are now excited to be looking into a future of working with animals (mainly doggies) and spending time in the great outdoors whatever the weather. Our boys were both from rescue centres. Slinky was a Romanian street dog who had a few behavioural issues but eventually relaxed and even gained a few select furry friends. Bailey was from Newcastle ( I fell in love with him whilst volunteering at the rescue he was in) Bailey loved everything and everyone. They both lived to be 14 and went all over with us and both also enjoyed a few holidays through Rover. We have also both grown up with dogs, cats, hamsters and guinea pigs. We are both extremely trustworthy, sensible and caring people but will make sure your pets have fun and are overloaded with love (if that's what they want). We will respect your houserules and pets routine to the best of our ability. We are currently not working and have no children or animals of our own to take care off so we can devote our time to your pets. We will care for your pets in your home and follow any instructions that we have discussed at our meet and greet. We both have a recent DBS certificate which we can provide a copy of if needed.

About: I’ve had two German shepherds and a westie so I have experience with all dog sizes. I’ve also grown up with cats - but more importantly, I love dogs and cats and caring for them! If your dog is reactive or needs work with training I’m more than happy to do this on our walks or drop in. I like to provide mental and physical work for dogs and cats - it’s important animals use their brains! I currently work self-employed and freelance so I have a very flexible schedule to look after your pup. Available from 1PM every day in the local area. I will take the upmost care of your furbaby and your home when entering and leaving - if you have any notes just message me!

About: I've owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, I was given my first dog at the tender age of 4, and I've also had a couple of cats along the way, one being a large breed, (Maine Coon) I believe all animals deserve to be treated with love and respect., I can administer oral medication as required by the owner., I myself have just recently lost my 2 German shepherds aged 10yrs, whom I adored, my boy sadly went over the rainbow18 mth ago, my girl sadly croosed 3mths ago,, I miss them terribly. I am used to administering ear drops to a big doggy who doesn't like his ears being messed with.as well as oral medications,. also I can massage leg muscles,( self taught) I'm can't bring myself to own any more pets, so a friend told me to try this site out, I work part-time week days, 9am -4pm Monday- Friday, so I'm available Fridays after 4pm till 8.30am Mondays, and also when on I'm holiday myself, I have a large secure back garden, your pets will be treated as my own, they are allowed on my settee, and on my bed,, I don't use crates, so if that's your preference, you would need to supply one,

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 7 years from working in a dog kennel to doing my own house sitting. I have dealt with all different sizes, breeds and temperaments and I pride myself of having lots of patience in order for the dogs to fully become my friend! I work full time as a dog walker and house sitter! Feel free to contact me on HC Pet Services on Facebook for more information! I like to think I am a generous dog owner who likes to keep a similar routine to which they normally have in order to keep the pups happy. I like to visit the dogs and potentially walk them before house sitting to ensure full trust between me and your pet.

“Teddy seemed very relaxed with Sharon. From what she said it sounds like he was his usual (slightly mischievous) self, so obviously didn’t miss me too much. Sharon sent lots of photos and updates so I was never worried about him at all while I was away. Thank you Sharon, much appreciated.”

About: I'm a dog person, I enjoy being in the company of dogs and I’ve had dogs my whole life. I would have a clan of dogs if I could. But for now this is the next best thing. I will treat your dog like they are part of the family they won’t know you’ve gone. Check out my photos, for more insight, they’ll be spoilt rotten. Dogs truly are a hoomans best friend. I’m always in and my partner works from home, we are very flexible and always in. My dog loves company and has the friendliest temperament. She’s in her element when she has a friend. She does like to get up for a loo break 5am sometimes earlier most mornings so this is something we are used to for the smallest 🐶. Any dogs that experience depression anxiety won’t feel it here. They are never left alone. We have a large garden that needs to be taken advantage of from our fave 4 legged friends and I am flexible to walk your dog to their routine. They will be treated like they are part of the family. All rules you uphold with them will be kept the same e.g allowed on sofa, sleep upstairs, walks at certain times ect.

“Mark and his daughter Faith came for a meet and greet. We have a Romanian rescue, 71/2 months old, Faith was really calm around him and he took well to her. We arranged a few hours sit with Faith, again he really took to Faith. She maintained her calmness and really engaged with Varg. We have not seen our rescue this relaxed around a non family human. We will definitely be using Mark and Faith again.”

“Thank you so much for looking after our babies they were both happy when we got home and the house was lovely and tidy too. We got updates daily and pictures. I would definitely use Charlotte again”

About: Ever since I can remember I’ve always had dogs, when I am home from university I love to take my younger dog out for long walks and I help to look after my older dog who has poor mobility and makes sure he is able to get around the house. I also have qualifications in animal management and did a two week work experience in St Lucia where I had the opportunity to visited and worked Trims stables and a animal rescue shelter as well as look at some on the conservative strategies that has been implemented for endangered species such as sea turtles. Next year with my university I will be going on a conservation feild trip to the Florida Everglades to learn more about environmental and species conservation and will be getting the change to work with alligators, dolphins and manatees. I am currently at home from university for the summer so I am available to pet sit at any time during the week until September 21st. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to house sit in my own home, as I have two dogs and we’re unsure how they would react to being around unfamiliar dogs.

About: *I do NOT have a pet of my own. System error - trying to correct asap* I have been looking after animals since I can remember. I love the joy and love they provide their owners and do anything and everything to ensure they are safe and enjoy their time with me. I am a trustworthy and reliable person with great availability. I have two girls (10&11yrs old) that help when they can, but I can offer overnight stays child free whenever needed. I live 10minutes from the Peak District and local areas that are perfect for dog walks. I have had experience with puppies, kittens, cats, dogs, horses, Guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, birds and many more. I look forward to helping make your animal’s time away from you , what you want and more! You really will have peace of mind when I’m your pet carer. **Enhanced DBS checked (certificate upon request) **Full, clean driving license **Diplomas : - Pet nutrition - Pet first aid - Pet walking and sitting I am available all day, everyday except for school run times (8:30-9am and 3:30pm-4pm) I am able to transport animals in my car if needed. Weekends can be made available either with OR without my two children in the house (whichever your pet will be most comfortable with if staying with me) I have a fully fenced and secure back garden I live in a 3 storey townhouse but have a good sized room on the ground floor for any pets that need to stay on one level or need to be self contained; either in their cage or not. Plenty of room for their own beds/crates/toys. I used to be a healthcare professional within the community, so am very used to entering houses via lock box/key code/spare key and ensuring the property is left secure. Many patients had pets of their own that I included to care for as well as themselves.

About: I have always been around dogs my whole life! My family have two floofs both are rescues. One is a from Romanian and we believe is a golden doodle and the other is a poodle both have very different characters but ultimately they both loves walks so I am always spending time outside with with! Since moving out of my family home and moving away I have missed being around furry animals. I have always had to ensure they are fed and looked after and also love training them. I try to get exercise every day and most days that mean an hours walk somewhere! So I would love to have a pet to join me I find myself always wanting to be around animals I love there energy. I have a fenced garden so they would be able to run around my garden freely if the dog is slightly more lazy I am also happy to sit with and snuggle on the sofa

About: I have been dog and cat (as well as other pets too) for 5 years now. This started as a passion for my love for animals & studying an animal related degree! I had great danes most of my life so big dogs are not a problem! And currently have 1 little cat who loves dogs & can be separated away if your dog isn’t a cat lover! I’m currently working full time but I am very flexible to fit around both mine and your schedules - never hesitate to ask more questions! I live in a detached house with a large garden & lots of green spaces super close to the peaks so your pets will have plenty of place to play & feel at hkme

“Katy took amazing care of our anxious elderly Jack Russel over the weekend. She was accommodating of his routine and kept us upto date with pictures which was so nice. She was also a very considerate and tidy houseguest. Would highly recommend.”

About: As a former Royal Marine and current firefighter, I bring a high level of fitness, discipline, and reliability to everything I do—including caring for your dog. I owned two dachshunds for nearly three years, so I understand the responsibility and joy that comes with looking after pets. My shift pattern is four days on, four days off, which means my availability can vary slightly week to week, but I always communicate clearly and show up on time. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every walk as a chance to give your dog a safe, structured, and fun experience. I have just finished my career within the royal marines, and am now waiting for my firefighting training to begin in September. Until then I want to fill my days with walking as many dogs as possible! To both keep my fitness up as well as making new friends In-Home Pet Care: - **Safety First:** I ensure a secure, clean environment free of hazards. - **Routine and Comfort:** I maintain pets' usual routines, including feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, to minimize stress. - **Exercise and Play:** Daily walks, playtime, and mental stimulation tailored to each pet's needs. - **Health Monitoring:** Regular checks for any signs of illness or discomfort, with prompt attention if needed. - **Training and Discipline:** Positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior and obedience. At the Pet Owner's Home: - **Consistent Care:** I follow the pet owner's guidelines for feeding, exercise, and any special requirements. - **Home Security:** Ensuring the home is secure and pets are safe, with regular checks on locks, gates, and surroundings. - **Personalized Attention:** One-on-one time with each pet to build trust and provide companionship. - **Cleanliness:** Maintaining a clean environment, including litter boxes, feeding areas, and any pet-related messes. - **Updates and Communication:** Regular updates and photos to keep owners informed and reassured about their pets' well-being.

About: We‘ve always had rescue dogs growing up and have dealt with all the doggy quirks you can think of as well as consistent long walks to keep them happy. I’m confident I can successfully care for any dog that comes my way and enjoy it all the while. Very flexible schedule at the moment, I can always manage to find the time and change my plans to find whatever works best for you! On a farm at the edge of chesterfield with a secure garden with lots of room to run around. Lots of great paths nearby for long dog walks.
