About: I have a level 3 extended diploma in Animal management and have been around animals my whole life, including dogs, rabbits and cats. I have access to a car so can cover a wider radius. I'm currently part time (4 days a week) during term time only so can take care of your pets every Thursday and weekend all day, or every day/evening year round. I have a enclosed back and front garden with access with big fields for dog walks. I have access to a car so drive or walk to keep your animal babies company. Come with recommendations.

“Very friendly and my cat loved Virginia. This was my first time using a cat sitter and I felt that my cat was in very safe hands. Lovely to receive pictures of my baby while I was away for 2 nights too! Thank you!”


About: I have been around lots of dogs, but personally have never owned one or had one in my immediate family. My partner has had several dogs, including a German Shepherd, whilst growing up. Together we have looked after other peoples dogs in the past (overnight visits and outdoor trips) but unfortunately we don't have any local friends or family who have one currently. We are looking to have a dog of our own in the next few years, which is something we have spoken about seriously for a long time. Any hands-on experience would be welcome please! I am currently taking a career break, therefore my days at present provide a lot of flexibility. I enjoy going for local walks everyday, and would love to incorporate some animal interaction into my routine! I am a very trustworthy person who is considerate of other peoples property and privacy. I am not overbearing when around animals, and very much let them take the lead in terms of physical interaction.

“We arrived home to a pair of very relaxed and happy dogs! Much better than when they’ve stayed in kennels in the past. Harriet communicated everything really clearly and kept us up to date throughout.”


“Violet was superb at initial meet and greet with Leia (very nervous rescue dog) and knew exactly how to interact etc. Leia has also very clearly enjoyed this weeks hour long visit and playtime tool !! As she was far too tired to get out of bed to meet us when we returned. Thank you Violet. ?”


About: **Please note I no longer have a cat - I am unable to change this in settings.** I have grown up with so many pets, dogs and cats. I have worked as a dog walker for a dog walking and grooming company, which was one of the best jobs ever! I also have extensive experience dog and cat sitting. This has included looking after dogs of different sizes, such as mini dachshunds as well as German shepherds. I am a kind and friendly person and I adore animals. My whole family adores dogs and I’ve grown up with all of my relatives having about five dogs at once! Even though it’s hectic I absolutely love it as they’re such amazing company! I live in a spacious house with a lovely garden. I live with my parter who works from home and absolutely loves animals and is able to help out. We both adore animals so are always happy to have them around. My partner and I are very active and love going on country walks every day. I have a fenced garden so I can always keep your pets very safe even when they want a litter wonder around or need to go outside to use the loo!

“Another lovely sit for our dog Murphy by Kyra. Reliable, communicative, thoughtful and friendly. Would highly recommend and would always ask Kyra to sit/walk when we are in the area. Thank you.”


About: I grew up surrounded by dogs&cats, I have bred imperial shih tzus for the last 10 years,people have also used my services for intensive care on newborn puppies, I regularly visit people who are having behaviour issues in their own homes. I work from home so I’m always available to cater anyone’s requirements. I have older children who love nothing more then playing/meeting with new guests that come to stay. I have a fully fenced dog proof garden which is poo picked at least twice a day, your family member will have full access to the garden as and when they please. I own 3 energetic miniature shih tzus so your pet will have company and go on lovely walks all together. If your pet prefers 1-2-1 contact, this can also been catered for.

About: I've looked after so many different types of dogs and all at different stages of life and both domestic and working. We have a few of our own dogs, some of which are kennelled in the day and one lives in the house full time. I also frequently look after friends and family's dogs and have done for many years both overnight or just popping in to look after them for the day / take them for walks and play with them. I love every second and each dog has their own personality which I adore. I am working full time for a local estate who love dogs so I can take them to work with me to be fussed in all the offices and can take them for regular toilets breaks too but sometimes I can also opt to work from home and so can be with them all day at home where possible. I am available most weekends and love to go for long walks; my favourites are generally at the beach, in woodlands/fields and along the south downs. Depending on your dog's needs, I have a wide variety of arrangements. Generally I keep boarding dogs in the house with Havoc, our very talkative, friendly lurcher and that would be the same with dogs staying for the day. If in the event that need to nip out temporarily, I could either leave them in the house, in a crate in the house, or in a kennel outside next to our four kennelled dogs (during daylight only) it totally depends on what you advise as being best suited to your dog. I have a large garden which is just stock fenced for our lurcher but I also have a run area adjoining the kennels which is opened up so that dogs can access beds, shelter, water if they'd prefer to be based outside over. Happy to suit all needs. Our dogs don't generally play fetch but I had a collie staying recently who loved the game so I am happy to flex to whatever the dogs needs are.

About: I have lived most of my life with one or more dogs at home and my family currently has four of them. For me, home is where the dog is. During university, my flatmate and I fostered 9 different dogs spread out over 2 years. The dogs were awaiting their flights to their forever homes, travelling from Cyprus to the UK. The periods of fostering ranged from 2 weeks to 3 months. This has taught me to take care of anxious dogs who had never had homes before or had been poorly treated by their owners. I also regularly dog sit my friend's 2 year old female labrador, as well as my family dogs. Unfortunately the place I rent doesn’t allow pets and so am restricted to drop in visits, house sitting and doggy walks. As I am a junior doctor, my availability will be very dependent on my rota schedule, however I am happy to discuss and work around it whenever possible. Many walks throughout the day, some exercise in the park and even some training if asked. Thanks to my childhood and the fostering experience I have carried out during university, I am able to easily adapt to different characters and breeds easily as well as adapting to your dog's specific needs.

About: For as long as I can remember, I have always had a pet in my life. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the combination of my genuine love for animals, hands on experience and attention to each pet’s unique needs. I just don’t look after them but take the time to learn their personalities, routines and preferences. I’m on a sabbatical year so I can look after your babies anytime, any day or night. I can come to yours or you can come to mine When pets stay in my home I prioritise creating a safe and calm environment. Maintaining their usual routine for feeding, walking and playing. I have a small fence garden and next to my house there’s a park for walking. When I care for animals in their home I follow the instructions given and focus on maintaining their normal daily life and I giving them a lot of love and attention. I respect the home by keeping it tidy and secure. I provide updates so pet owners feel connected and reassured all the time
About: I have had my own family dogs & cats for as long as I can remember, which I have taken care of when needed. I have also been asked by family friends to petsit & housesit while they go on trips. I absolutely love spending time with pets & would always be sure to make an effort to provide a positive & loving experience and environment for your furry friends. :) I will not be able to provide services from my own home! I’m just not sure where to add that information. I work my main job in Chichester on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays. I will still be able to provide short check-ins & walks on those days before 9am and/or after 6pm (or after 4pm on Sundays). Otherwise, my days are usually completely free on Mondays, Tuesdays, & Thursdays. :) I will comply with the homeowner’s rules & wishes as I housesit and/or petsit for them. I will make their home & pets my top priority while caring for them.

About: I’ve owned and cared for pets my whole life. I’ve looked after my own chickens, cats, dog, snake, houseplants, Guinea pigs and fish, and been lucky enough to look after others’ cats (including young kittens), rabbits, hamsters, leopard geckos and fish. In short, there’s no animal big or small that I don’t love. I know some great dog walking routes which I love to do with my dog, which I’m sure, if they require walking, your dog will love too. I’m experienced in administering oral and skin-on medication and, due to my mum being a vet, have good general knowledge on basic pet health. I always make sure to clean food bowls and make sure everything is tidy for when you get home. I’ve only ever had good feedback from owners whose pet’s I’ve looked after, being told that I’m trusted, efficient and friendly. I’m always available via phone or text so don’t be afraid to get in touch! As I’m back from university for the summer, I am available most days, all day. Of course I may be unavailable some days but will never cancel pet care short notice. I’m used to crates and baby gates for dogs, and will prioritise your dogs safety and comfort on walks. As my own dog isn’t the friendliest, I’m used to dealing with antisocial dogs on walks and will not bring her with me when walking your dog.

Sophia L.
“Sophia has grown up with pets including dogs all her life and is passionate about all creatures great and small. She is a lovely, energetic and caring girl who takes great care of any animal she looks after and can offer a happy, safe, cosy and fun environment for any dogs in her care. Sophia loves walking so they would be well exercised and is very affectionate too so staying with her would be lovely environment for dogs away from home and I cannot recommend her highly enough.”


Clemence L.
“Clem was born around dogs and has cared for dogs her whole life! She’s always had a special bond with them and loves them dearly - she has a lot of love to give! She’s always a doctor who loves to care for animals! You can definitely trust her to take care of your dog. We still have 4 dogs at home and you can always find one (or more) of the dogs with her, cuddling or playing!”

Maya F.
“Maya looked after my dog Bruno for many years as if he was her own. I have no hesitation in recommending her as a competent, intelligent and loving dog sitter.”
Amy M.
“Amy is an incredibly caring individual and great with both people and animals. I have been present when Amy has dog sat in the past and through watching her interactions with the pets she was caring for, and having also seen her interactions with her own pets, I truly think you'd be hard pressed to find a more qualified and loving pet caregiver. She goes above and beyond for all of the pets that she cares for, and will do everything in her power to ensure their comfort and safety while in her care.”
