Cat Sitting in Christchurch

“Niki was absolutely amazing with my pets, definitely highly recommended her to look after your pets, never been happier to leave my animals in someone else’s care but I felt so secure with her being there and loved the updates and photos of my dog”

“Thank you. Rachel has been excellent, has made friends with my two (usually rather shy) cats, and has sent me lots of photos and up dates. I wouldn't hesitate to call Rachel again.”

“Amy was excellent to communicate with and we looked forward to our daily updates and photos. Even though our Herbie cat decided to be even more aloof than usual and spend every day out sunbathing, Amy still sent us updates and very thoughtfully left surprise treats and toys out for Herbie to find. Would definitely recommend Amy to look after your fur baby!”

About: I have had pets all my life. My most recent dog was a German Shepherd who we had since he was a puppy. I am familiar with administering medication. As a family we really enjoy showering love on all animals. We are a very active family always going on walks and adventures and love the companionship of a furry friend. I work from home, I very regularly give dogs a cuddle and letting them out into the garden for a toilet break. I often take them out at lunchtime for walks either at Hengistbury Head or at the beach which is on our doorstep. Once the family return from school/work they are more than enough cuddles available for pets!! My daughter is aged eight and my son is aged 11 and they are very familiar and considerate when interacting with animals. I have a good sized fenced garden. Where the dogs are perfectly safe to run around. We are experienced in crate trained dogs,and feeding range of food from Raw to kibble.

“Klaudia did an amazing job looking after our boys (who are highly spoilt) at such short notice. We loved the photos and videos she sent. Klaudia comes highly recommended and we will definitely be asking her to look after our boys again.”

About: I've grown up with animals, and take their wellbeing incredibly seriously. I adored my two childhood cats, and I helped raise a Finnish Lapphund with my friends throughout lockdown. Now I own two cats with my American fiancee, one of which is a kitten! Being an actor, my schedule is very much fluctuating. It means I have A LOT of downtime, so I'm generally pretty flexible to accommodate your needs. I will happily travel to your home and take into consideration any specifics your fur baby has. One of my older cats has a strict feeding and medication regime, so I'm very used to juggling pet-specific needs and catering to them, however you see fit.

“Brogan was an absolutely fantastic with my dog. She was incredibly professional and I could tell she genuinely cared about Lily. Lily needed walks on three separate occasions and Brogan was wonderful with her every single time. I was relieved to see how happy and settled Lily was with her.”

“I was away on holiday for ten days and left my four beloved cats in Maria’s care — and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Maria did an absolutely amazing job. All my cats were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for when I returned. She followed every instruction with such attention and love, and even went the extra mile by watering the flowers in my front garden, which was such a thoughtful and kind gesture. Knowing Maria was looking after everything gave me real peace of mind while I was away. She’s incredibly reliable, caring, and dedicated — I wholeheartedly recommend her. Thank you so much, Maria!”

About: Hi, I’m Katharine:) I am a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, from playful kittens to loyal dogs and even horses. Growing up in a home full of animals, I naturally became the go-to pet sitter for family and friends which instantly became my favourite hobby, I’ve cared for a variety of pets and always treated each one like my own. I believe every pet deserves quality time, attention, and tailored care. Whether it’s daily walks, play sessions, or just providing a calm and comforting presence, If you’re looking for someone reliable, loving, and passionate about all animals I’d love to help care for your furry family members. I’m currently studying in my final year of university and available 7 days a week for pet care which I will fit around my studies I’m completely flexible to your needs for your pet whether a walk or garden play is preferred. I have my own car for travel. Unfortunately I cannot accept pets into my own and am only available for home visits/walking.

About: As a current veterinary student, caring for animals isn’t just my passion — it’s my future career. I’ve gained hands-on experience working with a wide range of animals, from playful puppies and senior dogs to cats, small mammals, and even farm animals during my vet placements. I understand how to read animal body language, handle pets gently and confidently, and provide calm, attentive care. Whether your pet needs a relaxing walk, some energetic playtime, or simply company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m also happy to follow specific routines, administer basic medication, and keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you have peace of mind. I’ve also luckily had the experience of owning a dog since I was 4 years old and thoroughly enjoyed going out on walks, bathing and caring for her. I’m a veterinary student currently back home for the summer, and I’m excited to spend my break doing what I love most — caring for animals! With a flexible summer schedule and a strong background in animal handling and care, I’m available for regular walks, drop-in visits, or longer pet-sitting stays. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give during my vet training. Whether your pet needs company, exercise, or special care, I’m here to help make their summer safe, happy, and stress-free. I have a fully fenced garden with a locked gate in a quiet cul de sac with a large quiet meadow adjacent to allow for some fresh air

About: I have grown up with lots dogs at home, big and small. I generally work from home but If I do go out would love to take your 4 legged family members with me to explore London. Happy to cater to your rules e.g. if you don’t let your dog on the couch, I won’t let it on mine. But if you do, I’m more than happy to let it on and cuddle. I don’t have a garden so we would be going out for a walk every 2 hours minimum or spending the day at the park. If your dog is fit then I could go running with it, if your doggy is getting on a bit then sitting in the park or lounging in front of the tele is on the agenda. As a lifelong dog lover, I integrate pet care into my daily routine, from morning walks to evening cuddles. Working at KONG, I often bring my dogs to the office, ensuring they stay active and happy throughout the day. Your pets will be in responsible, loving hands with me I bring my dogs to work, ensuring they stay engaged. At home, my fenced garden offers a secure area for play and exercise. With cozy beds both upstairs and downstairs, and plenty of KONG toys to keep them entertained, your pets will receive attentive, loving care with me!

About: I have a deep passion for animals, which has been reflected in my extensive pet care experience. Throughout my life, I have owned and cared for my own dogs, providing them with love, training, and companionship. This firsthand experience has given me a solid understanding of dog behaviour, health, and nutrition. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also walked dogs for friends and neighbours, ensuring they receive the exercise and socialisation they need. My dog-walking experience has enhanced my ability to handle different situations with confidence and care. Moreover, I have served as a dog sitter, looking after dogs in their own homes while their owners are away. This role has required me to manage feeding, administering medication, and maintaining daily routines, all while providing a safe and comforting environment for the pets. I take pride in building trust with both the dogs and their owners, ensuring peace of mind during their absence. Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in pet care, including effective communication with pet owners, understanding canine behaviour, and providing attentive and compassionate care. I am committed to ensuring that every dog in my care receives the attention and love they deserve. I have rescued dogs abroad in countries such as Peru and have some beautiful happy ending stories and I have looked after dogs in Chile. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely member of the family! Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, providing structure and fulfillment in my life. Each day begins with morning rituals that include feeding my pets and ensuring they have fresh water. This not only establishes a routine for them but also sets a positive tone for my day. Throughout the week, I dedicate time for regular walks and play sessions, which are crucial for their physical and mental well-being. These activities are not just about exercise; they also allow me to bond with my pets, observe their behavior, and ensure they are healthy and happy. I also allocate specific times for grooming, training, and socialization, which help maintain their hygiene and reinforce good behavior. On weekends, I often set aside longer periods for outings or adventures, providing them with new experiences and environments to explore. Additionally, I keep a flexible schedule to accommodate any vet visits, pet sitters, or special needs that may arise. This proactive approach ensures that my pets receive the care they need, while also allowing me to manage my other responsibilities effectively. Overall, pet care is woven into the fabric of my daily life, enriching my routine and providing me with joy, companionship, and a sense of responsibility. In my own home, I offer; 1. A Safe Environment: My home is pet-friendly. 2. Routine Care: I establish a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime. This routine helps pets feel secure and reduces anxiety. 3. Play and Exercise: I engage pets in regular play sessions, utilising toys that stimulate their minds and bodies. Daily walks or playtime in a secure area are essential for their physical health and mental stimulation. 4. Health Monitoring: I keep a close eye on their behaviour, appetite, and any signs of illness. In a pet owner’s home: 1. I respect the pet's home environment, maintaining their routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. 2. Daily Care: My responsibilities include feeding, providing fresh water, and maintaining cleanliness in the living space. 3. Exercise and Play: I ensure that pets receive adequate exercise through walks or playtime, as specified by the pet owner. I also engage in activities that the pet enjoys to keep them stimulated. 4.Companionship: I provide affection and companionship, helping to alleviate any loneliness the pet may feel while their owner is away. 5. Health and Safety: I monitor the pet's health and behaviour closely, and I am prepared to contact the owner or a veterinarian in case of any concerns. 6. Communication: I keep the pet owner updated with regular check-ins, sharing pictures or messages about their pet’s well-being and activities.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a cocker spaniel called Harry who is a lovely dog and is a bundle of energy! I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends, neighbours and volunteering over the years. I currently work at a school full time so my availability is mostly during weekends but during half term and summer holidays I am always available! A dogs safety is the most important thing and this is what I shall prioritise. I would love to take dogs to fulfilling yet safe environments, in which they can have a comfortable walk.

About: I've been looking after dogs since a child and our eldest passed around 15 recently, I look after her daughter who's a bit shy and we recently got a spaniel who requires lots of play time and training which I find very rewarding.

I have a fenced yard and two lovey spaniels to keep your fury friend company, I can crate your dog if necessary but preferable not.
