Pet Sitting Compton

About: I have long experience looking after my own animals over the years, dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, ducks and guinea fowl. I have lived in remote places and had to adapt as situations arose. Now returning to Oxfordshire I want to broaden to looking after animals when people need the help of someone with common sense and a love for animals. I am currently at home and therefore very flexible, I do work away from home periodically and am looking for a job that takes me outside in the fresh air and don't mind the weather. I am happy to get out and about with your pet as well as be at home. I'm just as happy sitting and keeping company as I am doing food, hygiene, medicines and visits out. I don't have any pets in my current home so am able to be fully focused on yours.

“Isobel did a wonderful job making sure The Boy(tm) was doing well while I was gone. I got updates letting me know how he was doing and it sounds like they got on well, having shared many a chin scritch. Will certainly be considering Isobel for future cat care requirements”

“Calente is great. Really calm and gentle which has enabled Charlie to feel extremely relaxed on her first visit - so important for a nervous rescue ❤️. She has a lovely energy, great communication and we have already booked in a couple more visits to continue to build on what is looking to be a very beautiful relationship with Charlie🙏”

“Khaley was fantastic! She was super communicative, providing details about each day along with photos - she looked after our boy like he was her own and cared for our place as well (cleaning up after a little vomit action). I would highly recommend and will be using Khaley again myself.”

About: I have been caring for my own dog Enzo for the past three years and have built a routine around school to ensure he gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I am experienced in walking, feeding, and looking after dogs, and I have also helped friends and neighbours by checking in on their pets, feeding them, and taking them for walks. I am responsible, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I am on study leave so I’m not in school until Summer. so I am free most of the day, with most of my walks done in the morning or at lunch but I can do in the afternoon. I have a large garden with in a quite area near some lovely woodland for some amazing walks, and my dog Enzo is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs.

“I would highly recommend Lily as she is reliable and punctual. She carried out all our requests when looking after our dogs and was a pleasure to deal with. Great levels of communication and flexibility. She gave us updates on our pets. I’ll definitely be asking for Lily’s help again - thank you Lily!”

“It can be a leap of faith having a stranger in your house, but meeting Sarah before we left was reassuring. She met our cat and was clearly not going to be fazed by any 'presents' that might be brought in. We were sent almost daily updates and photos, and our cat was very chilled with her. We would definitely use Sarah again. ”

About: As well as owning my own two dogs for seven years, for three years aboard, I worked in local dog pounds. I have helped care for and trained numerous different dogs. I have trained them with the basics such as sit, wait, and down, I have also helped them with anxiety issues, social issues, and learning to trust humans again. During this time, I also fostered 10+ dogs, from tiny puppies to dogs that were 5 or 6 years old, with health issues. I thoroughly enjoyed my time spending time with these dogs, nurturing them and showing them what a loving environment is about. I currently work part time and am able to fit in pet visits and walking Mon - Fri 9.30 -14.30 dog walking. I am also available every other weekend as well. I can easily crate your dog if they have anxiety issues and require a safe space. I am respectful of a dog / cat in their home environment and any rules you have for your home I will adhere to and respect. If you require muddy paws wiped before entry, a groom before bed, biscuits laid out before I leave them please let me know.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with several years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I currently have two dogs, including a puppy, which has given me valuable experience with puppy training, routines, socialisation, and the extra patience and consistency that young dogs need. Over the past year, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a wide variety of pets through Rover, as well as for friends and family. From tiny Chihuahuas to energetic Staffies, older dogs needing a gentler pace, and households with multiple pets, every booking has helped me build my knowledge and confidence. I’m proud to have received excellent reviews for my reliable, friendly, and caring approach. Sadly, I lost my beloved 16-year-old cat in July 2026, who had been part of my family for many years. That experience has only strengthened my understanding of how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to leave them with someone you can genuinely trust. I’m currently looking for a new full-time career, which means I have much greater flexibility for bookings and can often accommodate daytime care, longer stays, and last-minute requests. Animals genuinely bring me joy, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My priority is always to make sure they feel safe, happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, giving you complete peace of mind. I work full-time Monday to Friday in Basingstoke and live in Newbury, with occasional days in Reading, so I can cover a wide area for pet care. I’m mainly available for weekend stays and evening visits during the week for feeding, playtime, and cuddles. For weekday stays, I’m out between 8:30 AM and 6:30 PM (dependant on the location) but your pets will always get plenty of love before and after! I also offer dog walks in the Basingstoke area on weekdays, as that’s where I work (9:30–5:30). I do my best to follow each pet’s routine and keep things as comfortable and consistent as possible! Your pets safety will always be my top priority. At home, my own cat is kept safe with a magnetic tag cat flap that only opens for her, and our garden is fully fenced to prevent any escapes. After discovering gap under the bush where animals could slip through to the neighbours, we quickly secured it with chicken wire - problem solved! I believe in creating a calm and secure environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow consistent routines, maintain a healthy diet for my own pets, and always use positive reinforcement - praise and the occasional treat - for good behaviour. You can trust that your furry friend will be in a safe and loving space while you are away.

“Jessica was so lovely with our puppy - very gentle and good at playing with him. Meant I was able to work safe in the knowledge he was really happy. Also fab speedy communication. Would totally recommend her!”

About: A dog loving hooman who just can't get enough of the little rascals. A dog photographer recently moved from Anglesey to Berkshire with experience in owning my own dogs from Mastiffs to Doberman, and mostly rescues. Some absolute terrors in need of full time affection and training. I enjoy looking after dogs and learning about the personalities of each breed. I have gone through extensive (and very expensive) dog behaviousral training for previous rescue dogs over the years and spend a lot of time leanring about training techniques through well known online trainers. I find the different techniques interesting from trainer to trainer and enjoy training dogs as directed by owners. I'm happy walking an absolute nightmare large breed (ahem Doberman) to doing tricks with a well trained Collie off the lead. Always following the rules set by the owner. I have three dog loving children, age 5-11, who all want a dog, so also enjoy the walks, training and cuddles offered. They are well versed in approaching dogs carefully and not overcrowding etc. If you need a good friendly, safe location for you dog then give me a shout. We also have a fantastic woodland at the rear of the house, perfect for short or long walks without needing to drive to a dog park. Also have a good sized garden with 6ft fence perimeter set on a private housing estate. I am a photographer and due to recently moving to the area, don;t have too much of a busy schedule. I also work from home most of the time. So, I am generally at home Mon-Fri. As mentioned, I have a fab walking area nearby, a good sized garden, and I can follow guidelines set by the owner. Crating, leaving alone, short walks/long walks, whatever you require.

About: I've had pets all my life. Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and cats as a child. As an adult I've owned a house rabbit, 2 cats and currently have a dog and a cat. One of my cats sadly passed away with Feline Cystitis and he needed lots of medications. One of my dogs has allergies and sometimes needs medications for this. I'm a qualified nurse, who is comfortable with looking after unwell pets. I am currently on maternity leave. I am at home full time until November 2026. So I am available frequently. I may need to bring my daughter with me for some visits, but this would be discussed beforehand. I have a 6ft fence around the garden. Dogs are very much welcome on the sofa to be comfortable. I live near a huge woods and lots of lovely dog walks.

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs at home and I've taken care of pets for friends and family over the years. I love being around them, caring for them and giving them love. I have a miniature daschund myself and he's the sweetest boy. I'd have more pets in a heartbeat if I could. I'd love to take care of your furbabies. It would be my pleasure. I work full time Mon-Fri but there's a lot of flexibility with my job. I can pop out and pop in as needed so caring for your pet is no problem at all. I will follow all your instructions when caring for your pet in your home. You will have daily updates (if preferred) so you can rest assured that all is well with your pets throughout my time with them.

About: I've had dogs as a child as part of the family and known how important they are to their owner. More recently I have cats (3) and whilst living in Jordan I fostered several cats and found them homes. I'm used to large dogs, elderly dogs and excited puppies and thoroughly enjoy walking them and keeping them company. If you need someone to pop in and check on your furfamily during the day whilst you're away, stay the night or walk them I can help. I'm a teacher so have half terms free for when you may sant to get away. I don't have children so not dictated by this factor either. I'm not offering board at my home. However I will follow whatever instructions you leave since it will be different for each furfamily. Happy to clear litter trays, play with your pets for mental stimulation or take for walks.

I also have experience with large breeds and reactive dogs, small furries and cats 🐱 I currently work a mixture of clinical veterinary nursing and lecturing, which gives me flexibility to accommodate a range of pet care needs. In some cases, I am able to bring dogs with me to work if required, allowing for additional companionship and supervision during the day. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions or enquiries – I’d be happy to discuss how I can help care for your pets. I’m very happy to stick to your normal routine to continue continuity of your pets care. I’m an advocate for positive reinforcement and like to include positive rewards games and puzzles into my dogs days, including lots of love and fuss!

“Leanne was fab, she came for her first drop-in for my two dogs, she was very flexible and reliable which was incredibly helpful as it’s around Christmas and everyone is so busy normally! Can’t wait till have her over to stay with the dogs while we’re away soon 🙂”
