House Sitting Chesterfield

About: As a lifelong owner of both cats and dogs, animals are a massive part of my life. I have extensive experience caring for friends' and family members' pets, offering everything from quick drop-in visits to overnight stays. I am an active person who genuinely loves being outdoors, so I am always happy to spend my time taking dogs on long, refreshing walks to keep them happy and exercised. I am incredibly comfortable handling a wide variety of breeds and sizes, ranging from my own tiny, energetic Maltese to large breeds like German Shepherds. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a strict feeding routine, or just lots of cuddles while you're away, I promise to treat them like my own! I work full-time with a hybrid routine, which gives me great flexibility! On weekends, I am completely free and available for pet sitting, long walks, and drop-in check-ins, meaning your pet will get my undivided attention all weekend. During the week, my hybrid schedule allows me to easily accommodate dog walks and drop-in visits around my working hours. I am highly organised and always ensure pet care integrates seamlessly into my routine, so your pet will always get their exercise and attention exactly when they need it To ensure your pet feels completely safe and comfortable, I offer care exclusively in the comfort of your own home. Pets thrive best in their familiar surroundings, and staying in their own environment helps maintain their normal routine and reduces any separation anxiety.

“Sue is THE BEST. She cares so much about my dog that I don't have a worry in the world leaving him with her. Sue is caring, thoughtful, warm and friendly. I would recommend Sue to anyone looking for someone to leave their precious pets with - you're in more-than-safe hands. We'll have Sue back any time we are away in the future! Thank you ever so much, Sue xxx”

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 do work in the office but am able to come home on lunch for an hour to walk & play. I only care for one pet family at a time so don’t worry about anxious dogs mixing. All my day care & boarding services include walks - no extra cost! Growing up with dogs, I’ve developed an intuitive understanding of their needs. From playful pups to senior dogs, I’ve cared for them all! I have dealt with medication for heart diseases and epilepsy and understand the importance of routine and timing for medication. I grew up with chihuahuas and a shitzu. I understand the need to adapt to different behaviours and anxieties. Most importantly I understand the need for dogs to feel loved and involved whilst their pet parents are away. I understand that communication is key when trusting someone to care for your dog and I will go above and beyond to keep you updated on your dogs day. Trust is the most important thing! I love all different breeds of dogs. I feel like I have a great understanding of their different types of needs depending on breed. I understand toy breeds unique needs, combining vigilance for their safety with a gentle approach to their emotional well-being. I understand that they may not need as much strenuous exercise as larger breeds, but they thrive on companionship and consistent routines, often being content with a short walk and plenty of lap time. Given their small bladders, I understand they may require more frequent potty breaks than larger dogs. I am extra cautious during walks, using appropriate safety equipment like a secure harness to prevent accidents, and being aware of other, potentially larger, animals that could scare them or put them in danger. I am able to accept boarding at my own home with my partner at the weekends and also midweek as long as you are happy for me to work in the office and come home on my lunch hour (I work 5 mins away) to let your dog out for walk and spend time with them (left 4 hours at a time). I can walk your dogs in the morning before work and in an evening too. We have no pets so your doggies have our full attention. I have a secure garden and allow any dogs to roam all of the house. We are closed to parks and fields and so there is plenty of outdoor space for them to enjoy! I only board one pet family at a time & am happy to adjust to yours dogs needs. I can follow any crate training too.

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. Doggy daycare with a hint of boarding for your pooches. My Italian greyhound has the sweetest friendliest temperament which calms new dogs on their first visit especially those that are anxious to new places. I have daycare dogs most days who are all treated like my own, they have run of the house and garden and are all calm and friendly in temperament and I wish I could adopt them all. 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.

“Our dog was happy and relaxed when we got home and the house was tidier than before we left. Obviously - dog people. We are happy to recommend without reservation.”

“I can wholeheartedly recommend Fabiana and her partner Mateo for dog/ house sitting. We are always nervous about leaving our dog when we go away but they stayed in our home and ensured that he was properly looked after whilst we were away; they even worked their shifts together to give him his usual number of daily walks and not disrupt his routine. We will definitely ask Fabiana first before we go anywhere else. Thank you so much for the videos, updates and peace of mind!!!”

“I decided to try housesitting as my cat has struggled with my previous arrangements during holidays. I was very nervous about it as I’ve never used a house-sitter before. I’m so glad I found Jordan and booked him. He was wonderful. Jordan took very good care of the house and made sure my cat was happy. I received lots of updates and pictures which gave me enormous peace of mind. My cat had a lovely time hanging out with Jordan and was sad when he left! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jordan or book him again in the future 😊”

About: I grew up with dogs in our household and for the last 20 years I've had my own dogs but lost my last one, Sanza, a Toy Poodle, in June 2025. I dog sit two Dachshund sisters aged 15 regularly and enjoy it very much. I love dogs and would treat your dogs as if they were my own. Your pet's comfort, happiness and safety is my priority. I have experience of giving medication via injection as my dog was diabetic and had to have insulin injections twice a day as well as oral medication. I also have experience of looking after senior dogs as I have cared for dogs who are 14 and 15 years old. I am available to look after your dogs in my home or at your home so they have as little disruption to their routine as possible. I am retired so I'am at home all day so can look after your pets whenever you need me. I'm very flexible and can adjust my schedule to fit in around your needs. I have an enclosed garden which is fully fenced/ brick wall. The garden is very secure. I live in a semi detached bungalow so there are no stairs to climb. I have lots of toys for your dogs to play with. I am available to look after them in their own home or at my home. I am retired so I am around all the time to look after your dogs. I prefer to look after small dogs but will look after medium sized dogs as long as they walk well on the lead as I walk with a crutch so can't manage to walk large dogs who pull or lunge too strongly when they react to other dogs. I do not look after large dogs for safety reasons.

About: I have looked after many animals of different types, own pet care business owner. Love how you never feel lonely with a dog around, how they love you for you. I have experience with reactive dogs and giving medication to dogs. I am quite flexible but do have anotjer PT job, I do have someone who I ask to help me out if I'm stuck. Your pets may also get to meet my cute little dog, Willow. The best way to check availability is to send a message. Thank you In a pets own home I try to keep within their usual routine. There will be some time spent on their own. They will be looked after, loved and fussed making sure your pooch or cat stay happy.

“Maisie looked after our puppy for the day, and she was brilliant with him. Excellent communication leading up to the day, and he was very happy to be left with her. Look forward to having Maisie sit for us again.”

About: I’m a warm, friendly and reliable pet sitter, and together with my partner Lauren, we offer caring and dependable pet sitting for animals of all ages and personalities. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust to care for your pets and keep them happy, safe and comfortable while you’re away. Having rescued my own dog in the past, Lily, I know how much patience, trust and gentle care can mean to a pet. Through helping with her training, building her confidence and understanding her individual needs, I’ve developed a calm and compassionate approach to animal care. Together, Lauren and I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine and needs so we can make them feel settled and well cared for. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, quiet companionship, sticking to a familiar routine or needs a little extra patience and reassurance, we always adapt our care to suit them. We’re especially understanding with young pets who are still learning, as well as older pets who may need a softer, more attentive approach. Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I run my own business, so I have a flexible schedule and can plan my time around the pets I’m caring for. This means I’m able to offer visits, walks, and sitting at times that work best for each pet and their owner. My partner Lauren also helps with sitting and works remotely, so together we’re able to be really flexible and make sure pets get plenty of care, company, and attention throughout the day. We love creating a calm, caring environment and tailoring our service to suit each pet’s individual routine and needs. We offer pet sitting in the pet’s own home, as we find this is where they feel most comfortable, settled, and secure. Staying in their familiar surroundings helps keep their routine as normal as possible and can make the whole experience much less stressful for them. We always take the time to get to know each pet’s usual routine, from feeding and walks to playtime, rest, and any little habits that help them feel at ease. Our aim is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away, with plenty of attention, reassurance, and love.

“This was the 1st time we have used rover.com, our Spaniel Rosie won’t settle at other people’s homes and we won’t use kennels. Kate & Jake were absolutely fantastic from the start, they came to visit before we went away to meet Rosie, and we got a daily ‘pupdate’ on where they had been and how she was. We will 100% ask for there help again as we can now go on holiday knowing she is safe and will be with two fantastic people who Rosie settled with straight away.”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm, have had big dogs my whole life, from puppy to senior age and currently have a happy, well-trained Dalmatian who I raised from a puppy. I love exploring the Peak District and giving dogs the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need. With my own car and flexible routine, I’m always ready for walks, countryside adventures, and making sure your dog feels safe and cared for, as if they are a part of my family! As a university student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and getting outdoors, so dog walks and spending time with pets fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to be flexible with timings and make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I live in the quiet community of Dore, that has easy accessible walking paths and parks. My flat is the end of a cul-de-sac and has a garden and large car park for quick pee breaks. My flat is very spacious and with plenty of open play space!

“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.”

“Kitty was great in looking after our dog. We were very reassured from the very beginning that he was well looked after.”
