“Can not recommended Mise enough. She so wonderful with dog especially chihuahuas. She gave amazing updates that really eased the mine while away. Tony and Missy had a wonderful time playing with Dinky and Mise took the best care of them from start to finish. Highly recommended Mise to pet sit. Looking forward to booking and seeing you and Dinky again.”

My duties included ensuring their safety during playtime, providing regular feedings, and administering basic grooming. I also helped organise activities that promoted socialisation and physical exercise, creating a fun and enriching environment for all the dogs. This experience allowed me to develop strong skills in animal care, behaviour management, and client communication.

“Blaise has been so helpful and kind through the whole process, this is the first time I’ve used Rover and she has made it really easy and put my mind at rest. It was great to have pictures and videos sent over while they were staying with Blaise. Thanks so much for looking after my kittens so well :)”

About: In my pet care experience, what sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and compassion for animals. While I may not consider myself an expert, my special skills in pet care include: Patience and Understanding: I approach every pet with patience, recognizing that each one has its own unique personality and needs. This allows me to create a comfortable and stress-free environment for them. Tailored Care: I believe in customizing my care approach to suit the individual requirements of each pet. Whether it's playtime for puppies or gentle companionship for seniors, I adapt to their specific needs. Empathy: I have a deep understanding of the emotional well-being of animals and can quickly establish a bond built on trust and empathy. This helps pets feel at ease in my care. Safety Awareness: While not an expert, I prioritize the safety of the pets I look after. I'm vigilant about their surroundings, ensuring they remain secure and comfortable during their time with me. Communication: I may not be an expert in animal communication, but I pay close attention to their non-verbal cues and behavior to better understand their needs and feelings. My dedication to providing attentive and loving care to pets, along with these special qualities, allows me to offer a unique pet-sitting experience. I may not have specialized expertise, but I do have a genuine passion for ensuring that every pet I care for feels happy and secure in my presence. I'm currently working part time and have plenty of time to spend with furry friends. I will have few hours here and there that I will need to work however, they have my full attention if required at anytime. We have a fenced garden and plenty of parks around the area to keep them interested in walks. We have a very friendly 2year golden retriever who is constantly looking to make new friends. We also have babie stair gates for dog safety.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 3 years, and what makes me stand out is my experience with both puppies and senior pets. I can help train those energetic pups and provide gentle care for older dogs who need a little extra attention. I focus on keeping pets happy and engaged with fun activities, daily walks, and a personalized routine that suits their needs. You can relax knowing your furry friend will be loved and well taken care of while you're away! I’m currently a student at the university of essex.Even though some days i might have some lessons i do have a lot of free time and i always fix my schedule accordingly. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe and comfortable environment with plenty of space to play and relax. I pet-proof the area, ensuring hazards are out of reach, and I maintain a clean space to prevent any accidents. I respect their routines and keep everything familiar for the pets. I follow their guidelines for feeding, exercise, and any special needs, and I always prioritize safety by keeping doors locked and monitoring pets during playtime. Building trust is key, so I make sure to communicate regularly with pet owners, providing updates and photos to reassure them that their furry friends are happy and well cared for. Your pets are treated like family.

“Amazing with Shadow. Sent multiple pictures throughout Shadows stay with him, constantly kept me updated. He went out of his way to help me as much as possible and ended up cancelling plans as I couldn't sort out Shadow being collected via the original plan collapsing. Couldn't recommend high enough.”

“Leeanne was great at looking after our dog Bertie. Totally put me at ease as he can be a difficult dog as has certain behaviour traits. Definitely would ask to look after him again.”

About: Having been surrounded by pets my entire life - from cats and dogs to horses and lizards - has given me a deeper and innate understanding of animal care. Since I could walk, animals have been a constant presence in my life, which has fostered a genuine love and respect for them. Family and friends frequently rely on me to house sit and look after their pets whist they are away, trusting in my dedication, ability and experience. This lifelong exposure sets me apart from others as I provide a level care and service rooted in a lifetime of hands-on experience and a sincere passion for animal welfare. My commitment to ensuring each pet's well-being and happiness in unwavering, making me uniquely qualified to offer exceptional pet care. I work from home Monday to Friday, ensuring your pet will never be left alone. My routine includes a morning walk and feed before I start work, followed by a lunchtime walk with various toilet breaks throughout the day. After work, I often take the dogs for a longer walk, bathe them if necessary, and feed them their second meal before letting them out one last time before bed. I am more than happy to accommodate any specific routine requirements, as I have the flexibility and luxury of working from home. This allows me to provide consistent and attentive care for your pet. In my home, I provide a safe and welcoming environment for your pets. I have a fenced garden where they can play and exercise, along with a friendly dog to keep them company. I regularly walk and bathe the dogs to ensure they stay healthy and clean. If needed, I can easily crate your dogs for safety and comfort. I love spending quality time cuddling with pets and can continue their training to help them feel secure and well-cared for. Additionally, I am happy to offer house-sitting services so your pets can remain in the comfort of their own home.

About: I’ve been taking care of my dogs at home for years! It’s been amazing moving to London and being able to dog sit immediately - I love having them around! I work from home full-time so I’m available all week to look after pets! I always go out for an hour at lunch and after work too so they’ll have their exercise despite that! We don’t have a garden so there is no risk of them getting out! I’ll also always keep dogs on leads to ensure their safety (unless asked otherwise!)

About: I have grown up with and always loved animals. I regularly look after dog for varying breeds (and personalities) for friends and family which I absolutely love. I work full time which means boarding is only available on the weekends, however I am available for walking and drop ins weekdays after 5pm. Due to my work schedule getting a dog isn’t a viable option at the moment, however I really miss being around dogs regularly. I treat all animals as if they were my own. Your pets will never be left alone and I will happily send updates and photos as often as requested.

“Ellie was amazing! Luna had a wonderful time and Ellie made sure we where kept updated and you could tell how well looked after she was when she came home. I would recommend her to everyone and would happily rebook Ellie again!”

About: We have both grown up with dogs from a very young age! We hand reared puppies after the mum rejected them until they were 8 weeks old and ready to leave. We then got Ruby who we instantly fell in love with! We live in Dedham which is perfect for long walks. Ruby had a little of puppies in November 2021. We have experience again with helping with the pups and making sure they go the best homes possible. We have dog sitted numerous friends dogs over the last few years sometimes up to 2/3 weeks a time. I olivia work part time so get to spend lots di time with the dogs long walks plays in the garden. Lewis works full time but is home early afternoons and weekend to help me he again is smitten with them all. I’m currently working part time! Round the corner from our home so have alot of spare time to be with the pups! Walking, popping back to see them! We’re fortunate enough to have a dog flap so the dogs have the full run of the garden when we’re out. It’s fully secured and safe! Happy to crate your dog/s if you prefer but again we have a secured fenced off garden and dog flap on the back door so they can enjoy fresh air and a run about throughout the day. We have a pet camera in the garden and kitchen so always able to view the dogs and make sure their not up to mischief!
