“Holly dropped in for an hour to look after our dog Kaja. She was very quick to respond & arrived on time and sent lots of pictures. Kaja was very happy when we got back! I would definitely recommend to anyone!”


“Corben took good care of my cat, ensuring he spent time playing with him and encouraging him to go out. Kept in contact with photos and messages. Left the house clean and tidy and I woukd be more than happy to book him again.”


About: My husband and I have housesitted on another platform for 2+ years in the UK, US, Germany and Japan. Meeting and caring for the animals is always our favourite part about the trip and would love to continue. I’m currently self-employed and working remotely on my masters degree. I am available to dedicate as much time as needed to your beloved pet(s) to make them feel at ease and comfortable. I do not offer pet care in my own home as I believe this creates a barrier between them and me. I want to feel like they trust me. I follow routines set by owners and try to make their routine as normal as possible. If they are happy with you they are happy with me.

“Gabrielle took care of my two cats while I was away for 5 days, and I am so glad I chose her! She made everything so easy. She kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, which put my mind at ease. My cats clearly loved her – they were happy, well-fed, and so well looked after. On top of that, came back home to a spotless place, which was such a nice surprise and thankful for that! Gabrielle was amazing the whole way through, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and super attentive pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful for her care! Hoping she’s available next time I need someone to look after my babies”



“Angelika was an exceptional sitter who cared for my furry children with the a great professionalism and genuine care. Her dedication was evident when she went out of her way to check on my cat’s eye after I expressed concern—it truly showed her commitment. Communication with her was seamless, and her professionalism was top-notch. Highly recommend!”


About: I had my own large breed dog for 12 years, he was a very loving Japanese Akita. I have pet sitter for friends and family over the years and I am always asked to continue to look after these dogs when needed. I have recently rehomed my standard poodle who I am madly in love with, she is walked for an hour in the morning, where I will have availability to walk others with her if needed. I have always loved dogs and can’t wait to spend my free time with your fur babies! I’m currently working Monday to Friday but I am able to work from home if required. All weekends are available. I will be able to do long or short stays. Dog walking can be done in the evenings after 5:30 along with any late evening drop ins. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, it’s important to follow their established routines to keep the animals comfortable and stress-free. I make sure to feed them according to their schedule, provide fresh water, and give them plenty of love and attention. I also keep your home clean by picking up after them, whether it’s cleaning litter boxes or taking dogs out for walks. Most importantly, I stay alert to any changes in behavior or health and communicate regularly with the owner to ensure their pets are happy, healthy, and safe in their absence.

About: I have taken care of animals from an early age growing up on my family’s ranch in Montana. Fitness is important to me and don’t mind going above and beyond for your pets needs through exercise if required. I do have a farm cat who lives outside only comes inside for breakfast into kitchen if boarding is needed in my home. I’m currently available full time to take on pet sitting jobs or house sitting. I reside in the St Austell area and drive. I don’t mind coming to you or boarding pets. I have a fully fenced yard and can easily accommodate your wishes whether it be at the pets house or mine I am flexible with whatever is best for you.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since an early age, I grew up with dogs and have since had two of my own. I have experience training puppies and caring for senior dogs, and everything in between! I love dogs and all their quirks. I can be there for outgoing or shy and anxious doggies. Reach out to me if you’d like to chat about your furry friend :) I am currently working as a freelancer, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to fit your furry pal into my day. Just let me know what they need! I have a fenced garden and a very friendly dog of my own to keep your dog company, alternatively I can walk your dog on their own or come and visit them at your home. Whatever works best for them!

“Kyal has been amazing and coming In to see our puppy dachshund Nevill. Really good at communicating and keeping in contact, really easy to get hold of. Super reliable and would absolutely recommend. Myself and my partner plan to book Kyal for the future!”


“I can highly recommend Rosie for cat-sitting! Rosie was wonderful to deal with from start to finish and we could tell she had a real warmth and affection for our little cat….who had a bit of a dust-up with a neighbours cat the night before we went away! Rosie was great at looking after her and administering care and some light medication, alongside offering much need affection. Thank Rosie x”

About: I've grown up with cats my whole life, I got my first dog 11 years ago, fox red labrodor, so now I have a cat and dog and life is pretty great.

Cat roams where ever he likes

About: I have grown up with many animals and always was drawn to them with friendliness and compassion. I currently have two cats who have travelled across the world with me and been to 11 countries. As I recently moved to Truro, I'm looking to help others with their pets when they are away to ensure peace of mind and happy pets! I work from home so can be flexible with your schedule and pets needs. Whether its a pop in visit or a longer stay. I will need a bit of notice before accepting requests. I am kind, friendly and attentive to animal needs and want to make sure they are well kept and very happy. With a lifetime of experience with animals I will ensure that your pet is in the best hands.

About: Hi, I’m Theo George — a reliable and passionate dog carer based in Newquay and Truro with years of hands-on experience. I run the online delivery side of my family business, Cornwall Canine Centre, and I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life — from small Yorkies to champion Great Danes. My mum’s been a professional breeder and Crufts winner for over 20 years, and I’ve grown up helping with grooming, walking, training, raw food feeding, and everything in between. I know how to handle all kinds of dogs — nervous, hyper, giant breeds, seniors, puppies — you name it. I may only be 18, but don’t let that fool you. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs — literally. My mum is a professional breeder and dog show expert, and at one point, we had 36 dogs on our property (not including puppies!). From a young age, I’ve been hands-on with walking, feeding, grooming, and even caring for newborn litters. I’m calm, confident, and mature beyond my age — especially when it comes to dogs. Ever since I was 8 I used to compete in Champion shows with my mum around the whole of UK, I’ve been to places like Birmingham where I’ve competed in Crufts, been to Wales, Scotland. Ever since I was young my neighbours and friends will rely on me to look after their canine pets, walking, sitting and I know it’s not a flex but I’ve been in many scenarios where dogs have got into awful fights and I’ve had to break it up, put stitches on open wounds in them after where things have been bloody, my parents trust me a lot of on these situations even after growing up in a butchers where I’ve seen horrific stuff. I’m not these dog walkers where if there dog is in a fight they panic. I just stay calm and composed and break it up. So you can always rely on me. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently live with my parents, and we’ve always had dogs in the house — so I’m constantly walking and looking after them whenever I have free time, doing little road trips in my van. Monday to Friday, I’m at college during the day and running the online side of my family dog business in the evenings, so I’m unavailable for daytime bookings during the week. However, I can offer house sitting overnight or evening visits between 8pm–10pm if needed. On Saturdays, I’m available from 1pm onwards for dog walking, sitting, or quick pop-ins to let dogs out. Sundays I’m fully free and available all day for the same services. When caring for dogs, whether in my own home or a pet owner’s, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and fun environment that suits the dog’s personality and needs. Personally, at home, I let our dogs out in our secure garden throughout the day so they can run around freely and burn off energy at their own pace. I also take them on beach walks or field runs, which keeps them active and content — after that, they usually relax and sleep for most of the day. I feed my own dogs a raw food diet because of the many health benefits I’ve seen over the years — shinier coats, better digestion, and more energy. That said, I always respect each dog’s usual routine and diet, and I’m happy to prepare kibble, raw food, or any other special requirements you provide. I’m big on structure, positive energy, and being hands-on. I’ll give your dog proper exercise, attention, and supervision — not just sit around scrolling on my phone. If I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with respect and care just like I do with the dogs. I’m also happy to give medication, deal with special feeding needs, or help with basic training commands like sit, stay, or lead control. If anything unexpected ever happens, I stay calm and act quickly — I’ve dealt with fights, injuries, and emergencies before, and I always put the dog’s safety first. If I look after your canine on a consistent basis, I’d be happy to offer you a 10% discount on any of our Cornwall Canine Centre deliveries — whether it’s raw food, treats, or other essentials. It’s my way of saying thanks and making your life a little easier

About: I have a range of experience with a range of animals, and always looking for more experience and challenge. I love being with animals and the journey we go on together is incredibly meaningful. I have a lot of availability, ranging from morning to afternoon. Happy to do drop ins, walks, pet sits. I think it’s key to find balance in work schedule, so I have a flexible schedule. Happy to do weekends. I meet and greet the owner and pet before hand, and instructions/routine are discussed, regular contact with owner to check in with each other. I look after your pets, as if they were mine!

About: I’ve taken care of my family dog for the past 8 years while also dog sitting for neighbours. They have all said I have been a friendly and supportive help. I’m currently home for the summer from Uni which allows for a lot of free time and flexibility for weekdays as well as meaning I am free to work at weekends. I am a diligent and careful pet carer that takes every precaution needed and stays vigilant when working. I am always respectful of the home I visit and leave it just as I found it.

“Jenny was great! My cat Bruce seemed to settle in really well with her visiting and was very happy when I got back. The overall communication was great, will definitely be going back to her again the next time I’m away!”


About: Although I don't have specific experience in a professional capacity , I absolutely adore dogs and cats, and am always called upon by friends to look after their pets, whether that is sitting for them, talking them out for walks, or feeding them. I work part time, but welcome the chance to get out and check on pets and get them out for their walkies whilst exploring the local area. I am happy to work with specific needs of the pet owners to ensure the best care for their pets, whether that is just cuddling or playing with the pet in their own familiar environment or taking them out to explore.

“Zoey has been fantastic with Tia and Skye ✨. She sends daily updates with pictures to let us know how they were getting on. I knew after meeting Zoey that she would be more than capable, and she has really put me at ease knowing my cats are well cared for while I was away. Zoey is attentive to your pets needs and really is a great choice for anyone looking for a great pet sitter :). Would highly recommend!”


About: Fully Qualified in Animal Management Level 3 Technical Diploma (2 Year Course) at Duchy College. I’ve been working at a local doggy daycare for 3+ years, I thoroughly enjoy my work and have gained vital handling/management skills over the past few years making me confident with all breeds. I always insure that the dogs welfare/behavioural needs are met. I love including positive enrichment whilst caring for dogs as it prevents them from getting bored and also teaches them good behaviour from bad. Pet care can fit into my schedule most weeks as shown on my booking calendar, I update this 2/3 months in advance to show my availability as it does change from week to week due to my other job. If you would like to book something further in advance than this please contact me. I would always ensure the dogs safety/well being comes first when caring for them. This is vital as it will enable the dog to feel safe around me and well looked after. Gaining a dogs trust is so important as it enables me to be respected and listened to which is vital when they need to be recalled on a walk etc…

About: At 10 years old my family got a black Labrador. I had a phobia of dogs after being attacked at a very young age, however the loving nature of Lola transformed my phobia to becoming a passion. A couple years later my family also got a beagle called Phoebe. My family were suggesting phoebe to be given to another home due to my parents no longer able to take responsibility for her. I was 15 and strong believe animals are family and cannot be given up on. I took sole responsibility for Phoebe and now she is my everything. At 15 a neighbour offered me paid dog walking/daycare of their labradoodle puppy as well as their cat. For their cat, the cat needed daily medication which I was responsible for ensuring this was taken. Since I was a child, I have dreamt of owning a luxury doggy daycare business. I believe in treating your animals as if they are my own. I can offer pet care mainly on weekends due to working full time in the week. But I can offer evening walks or evening sittings I will mostly be proving my services in your home, and occasionally in my home. I like to offer a calm environment for your pet
