“Jane was absolutely fantastic with our dogs. She is a very kind and caring person, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. Our dogs stayed with her for two days, and the best proof of how happy they were is that on the second day they were excited to go back to her again. They looked relaxed, happy, and well cared for throughout their stay. I would highly recommend Jane to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. The happiness and excitement of our dogs says it all. Thank you, Jane!”

“Hannah was brilliant with our 7 month (old very energetic) Staffy X puppy. Super accommodating and very experienced - gave us huge confidence leaving River in her care. Also offered a great ‘meet and greet’ before our first booking as well to make sure the pairing was a good fit. Already booked in for some more dates. Thanks Hannah!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them. I grew up with many cats, and since I was little I’ve helped look after them, including taking in stray cats during my childhood. We also always had family dogs, and I loved spending time with them, playing, and taking them out for walks. In total, my whole family 5 dogs overall, so I’m very comfortable being around different breeds and personalities. I also have personal experience caring for a small tortoise named Frankie, so I’m used to looking after pets with different needs and routines. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy giving them attention, care, and companionship. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention they need. I’m available for dog walks, home visits, boarding, and overnight stays, and I can be flexible to suit your pet’s routine. I’m happy to help with whatever is needed to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for. I live in a small two-bedroom house, and although I don’t have a garden, there is a small nature reserve area just behind my home that’s perfect for dog walks. There’s also a bigger park about a 5 to 10 minute walk away, so there’s plenty of outdoor space and nature nearby for exercise and fresh air. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and cared for in a calm, safe environment.

About: My aim is to make sure your dog is happy, loved, entertained, walked and fed in the same way as if they were at home. I work from home so am here all day to look after your dog as I do my own gorgeous golden retriever, Stan. I wake up early (06:30) to say hi, provide breakfast, and let Stan and your lovely dog out in our safe garden followed by a cuddle. Then we’re out for a walk in the lovely open spaces on our doorstep. If it’s the weekend - and your dog is keen - we’ll go to the beach for a swim or paddle! Otherwise happy to stick to our lovely countryside walks :) Chill time then playtime in the garden followed by another walk later. Then dinner and an evening play and chill whilst we cook dinner and relax at home with Stan and his pal :) I have my own 7 year old golden retriever, Stan who is very chilled and gets on with all dogs and humans! We have a spacious home with a fenced garden. There are lots of lovely walks on our doorstep and we like to go to the beach for a swim or paddle too! Stan is my third child! I have two grown up kids at uni. Freddie, 22 and Poppy 20. I will look after your dog as if he were part of our family.

“I left my anxious senior chihuahua with Amadeusz yesterday as a practice run for a longer stay - he was very understanding of her stress and was able to make friends with her and get her to settle in. He checked in throughout the day to let me know how she was doing & even sent a few pictures. I will book with him again!”

“Buddy had a great day with Georgia, recommend to others and will rebook in the future”

“Thomas was great with our puppy Peggy. Arranged a meet and greet in advance and was very reassuring as this was to be Peggy's first ever doggy daycare. We got messages and pictures at various points during her stay and she obviously made herself quite at home. Would happily rebook.”

“Blaise was amazing at looking after Milo. She followed all the instructions given and kept me updated during his stay. I'll definitely be using her services again, thank you!”

About: I have grew up with a Labrador who I was mainly taking care of by myself. In recent years I have been helping my friends and family with looking after their pups. I have some experience with rescue dogs and also looking after four dogs at once. I am working from home with a fair amount of flexibility so I can look after your pup all day weekdays and weekends as well. I am living in a flat with no garden, however only 2 mins walk from a big park. My home is pet friendly as I do often look after dogs of my friends and family.

“My dog seemed very happy with John when I picked him up. Communication was very good with John, who was relaxed and listened to all the caring requirements for my dog. Very highly recommend and will definitely use again!”

About: I am a dedicated dog parent and passionate pet lover. I understand that for many of us, our dogs are not just pets, but another member of the family. I get it! Pebbles is like that to us too! When you choose me as your dog sitter, you can rest assured that your dog will receive the same love and attention as my own. As a competitive athlete, I believe in keeping both humans and pets active. Your dog will enjoy a 30-60 minute run each day (stopping for sniff breaks of course!) to ensure it gets the exercise and stimulation they need. They will also have the company of my friendly and playful Pomsky, Pebbles. Together, we'll create a fun, loving environment where your dog can feel at home. Whether its playtime, cuddle time or a refreshing run, I am committed to providing top-notch care that goes beyond the basics. Let me be your dog's new best friend (for the day!) while you're away! I am currently self-employed and working remote fully as a freelancer. Your dog will be with supervised and monitored at all times - they'll never be alone! I have a fenced garden and a Pomsky to keep your pet company. For my dog's meals, I can feed my dog human-quality food that I freshly cook. Pebbles gets at least 60 minutes of exercise every day. Your dog will have the same!

“Fantastic! Thank you so much, Guinness took to you so quickly and you provided an amazing service”

About: Being single and working from home I’ve got plenty of free time and availability to help others care for their beloved pets. Eventually I’ll get my own new best friend but in the meantime it’s an opportunity to get some more practice in whilst earning a few quid. In regards to my own space I have my own 3 bedroom house which has some outdoor space. I’ve also got access to lots of open space close by for walks etc I’ve previously cared for a few dogs and cats so am quite happy that I’ll be able to keep them entertained, fed and watered Currently working from home 3 out of 5 days and available most weekends to look after animals. Work is quite flexible which enables me to step away when required. I have a 3 bedroom house with a small, fenced yard. There’s also a large park about 5 minutes walk away to have a proper explore.

About: I've taken care of my own pets, friends and families ever since I was 13 years old. I used to be the neighbourhood dog walker at a young age just for fun! I've also catsit for up to 5 cats as well so I'm happy to take care of either little fluffy delight. I had my own dog for 17 years and she was the love of my life. I live 3 minute away from the park so they can get as many walks as needed or as much attention at home if needed. I have a very big flat that is also perfect for running up and down in and playing fetch. I have very big rooms so they are welcome to roam around or sit with me! I have an absolute massive flat that with lots of space to run around and play games in. I also live a 3 minute walk from the local park so they can get as much exercise and happiness as they like! If I'm coming to yours give me a schedule of your animal and I'll follow it to a T for them.

About: I have a 4 year old Pomeranian called Pablo who loves other dogs so it would be a pleasure for us to look after your small fluffy friend. Pablo is my baby and I would look after your dog with same care & affection. I work from home part time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pups. Me & Pablo go for at least one hour walk once a day and often explore new places for walks such as the local beach and woods. I never leave Pablo alone, he comes everywhere with me, we often go to starbucks to work from there & he gets a pupachino! If I do need to leave him to go to the shop or appointment etc, my mum lives down the road and will look after him, she also has a big garden Pablo loves to run around in. Pablo adores other dogs but only small dogs, so I can only cater for small dogs. I would like to do a meet and greet first to check both pups get on. Pablo is a bit spoilt and is allowed on the sofa and sleeps in the bed however he was crate trained so I have experience in that too.
