“Alex is really polite and helpful. She came round to visit and meet our cat beforehand and was very friendly. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Alex!”


“Absolutely brilliant, thankyou so much. While we was away our cat brought a live bird in our house. Joanne got rid of the bird and cleaned up after it. Sent us loads of photo and great updates on our cats. We would 100% book again. Thankyou again.”


“Lucy came and checked in on Sophia yesterday and tried to take her for a little walk (Sophia didn’t really want to!) but she played with her for a while and I felt at ease knowing she had a bit of company and fuss whilst I was out. She gave me some good updates and a couple of pics. I would use Lucy in the future”


“Emma was great with my 2 cats Loki and Zelda and went above and beyond with our other little furries as well. My Zelda can be quite timid with new people and she really took to Emma, I think she even missed her when we returned. Any issues were quickly communicated and my messages were answered straight away. Lots of cute pictures and the updates made me feel less anxious about leaving them. I can’t recommend Emma enough if you are nervous to leave your pets. I am very glad and grateful I left my babies in her care and will be doing so again in the future. Thank you again Emma, you’re a star 🌟”


About: I’ve taken care of my own and other people’s pets since I was 10. I’ve got three continuous customers in Crawley and Horley. References available. I work from home, so I have the necessary level of flexibility. My children are quite big, so it shouldn’t be an issue. I take long walks with the dogs. I have a fenced garden and when I walk the dogs, I keep them on the lead unless different agreed with the owner. You tell me your rules and I follow them!

“Felicitas is amazing! She’s just stayed at our house looking after our cat Rio whilst we’ve been away and just like the first time she looked after Rio - we had a great experience. Felicitas truly loves animals and during the first house sitting she spent time getting to know Rio and helping him to feel comfortable with her - even bringing toys to entertain him - all of which contributed to him being completely relaxed around her from the start of the second sitting - which for Rio is unheard of! Felicitas sent lots of photos and kept us updated on how he was doing, and left the house spotlessly clean. Couldn’t recommend enough!”


About: I grew up with 2 dogs, have always loved animals. I have looked after friends and family’s cats and dogs, fostered cats for cats protection, and look forward to meeting your animals to give them to love and attention they deserve. I work part time and work flexible hours. I’m usually home by the afternoon so have lots of time to help take care of your pets. I am happy to have pets in my home. I live in a 3 bed home with my 2 children 7 and 9 who also have a dog at their dads, which is a staff / bulldog cross. So they are used to big dogs. I have a fenced off garden also, for any pets that want to be outside. I also have some fields nearby and a lake for good walks.

“Annette is just fantastic! She popped in to check on my dog while I was out in London, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. She kept me updated with messages and photos, and I came home to a happy, relaxed pup. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her! A complete game changer & peace of mind when you need it.”


About: I have taken care of a variety of dog breeds for the majority of the my teenage years, into adulthood. This has given me the opportunity to work with a variety of temperaments and makes me easily adaptable to being around different dogs, with confidence. I have had many dogs too - a Dalmatian, border collie, Labrador, pug, husky, and English pointer, only adding to my love for any breed of dog, big or small 🐶❤️ I’m able to fit sits in on specified days, depending on my other work commitments. I keep my calendar up to date with my latest availability for sits. I have a fenced, decent sized garden, a separate conservatory used as a ‘dog room’ with a sofa and lots of sunshine for the cooler months where my own dogs love to bask in the sun and relax. I have 3 friendly dogs too.

“David was amazing, I felt he really looked after my George in the best way, my booking was so last minute but despite that David accommodated to our needs perfectly. Communicated really well and George came back so happy. Definitely recommend David for your pets. 😊”


“My cats absolutely loved her! One of them is usually very timid and takes a long time to warm up to new people, but he was surprisingly comfortable and even playful around her. It was clear that she has a natural connection with animals and made them feel safe and at ease. We were thoroughly impressed and very satisfied with her service. She went above and beyond to ensure our pets were happy and well cared for.”


“Sophie was wonderful! She took excellent care of my cats while I was away. She's clearly a genuine animal lover, my cats were comfortable and happy with her. Sophie was reliable, communicative, and such a lovely person to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to other pet owners!”


“Vicky was fabulous, everything went smooth, I loved getting reports from Vicky, she always informed me how my cat is doing. She is a natural with animals and knew exactly how to gain trust of my cat. Very grateful for your help, and would recommend Vicky to anyone :)”


About: I've always had a dog at home, ever since I was a child. I am a lucky owner of two beautiful, friendly French Bulldogs. I have the experience in taking care of various breeds. Took care of Labradors, Westies, Basset Hounds, Toy Poodles, Pomeranians, Yorkie, Chihuahuas, Golden Retrievers, Cavaliers, Spanish Water and Cocker Spaniels, Staffies and many others. I'm used to different breeds and understand different temperaments, and have the patience to bond with all dogs of different shapes and sizes, adjusting to their personality to fit their needs and ensuring that their time spent with me is amazing. I live in a house with a big fenced garden, close to a big park. Therefore, your pet will never be starved of exercise or fresh air, in fact, it will probably be bored of so much playing! As I mentioned... I could live without people, but not without dogs. Also, I'm certified in Pet First Aid & CPR. I work from home, with very flexible schedule hence always have time for a nice long walk. And I'm available for belly rubs all day long :D I have a big, fenced garden and two friendly French bulldogs who will keep your fur baby entertained. I make sure to feed dogs separately, so it doesn't create any tension between them.

About: Hello! I am Nana Afua and I absolutely love dogs - I have been around dogs all of my life, and I regularly take dogs out for walks in my neighbourhood and have my own fluffy poodle cross. I find taking a stroll with a furry friend to be really comforting and a great way to detach myself from my work. I’m currently based in Crawley so I can be made available to any owners needing their lovely dog walked in this area. I’m fairly flexible so I’m happy to come in and walk your dog on their schedule or give them some much needed mental stimulation and exercise in one of parks. Please do send me a message, always happy to chat! I am flexible with my schedule and most of the time happy to work around you. Just let me know what you need and I will do my best to accommodate. I will ensure all measures are in place to keep your dog secure in your home or on a walk, by following all procedures currently in place and implementing any additional ones if necessary.

About: I cared for a dog when I was younger, the past couple years I care for 2 cats that we own as a family, yet I miss times when I would take dog for a walk or play in the park. I am self-employed as a taxi driver, so I am very flexible, yet school run in the morning is blocked as I am taking my child to school around 8-9 am. House with fenced garden, a big park near home, 2 polite indoors only female cats to keep the company. I respect your home as I do my own.

“Brilliant! I was extremely hesitant about leaving Tiggie as she can get aggressive if scared, and strangers scare her! Bronn was fantastic and I’m absolutely chuffed there wasn’t a single incident! Highly recommend”


About: I have my own young dog (a beagle) so I am used to dealing with dogs with lots of energy and character and am used to being consistent with training. I live with my partner who grew up with dogs. We have an enclosed garden with plenty of space for dogs to run, play or go to the toilet. Our own dog is friendly and polite with other dogs and sleeps in her crate at night. Our home is very much puppy/dog proofed and there is plenty of space for dogs to be in seperate rooms if needed. We allow dogs on our sofas. I am self employed as a tutor and also do some agency work. On my 'available' days, I may still be out for a few hours of the day. If this is the case, I will let you know before you book. I live with my husband who does shift work. He is a huge dog lover so when he is not working, he will likely get involved in helping to care for your pup. I have an enclosed, fenced garden with large grass area where dogs can go to the toilet. I have a porch which means dogs can't escape when front door opens or closes. We have plenty of room for your dog's crate or bed. We have a stair gate to stop dogs from going upstairs. We have laminate flooring throughout the downstairs of the house.

“Great experience! She was on time, communicative, sent photos, and my cat was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend! 😊”


About: I’m Joel. My family and I have a 14 year old Jack Russell called Milo. Until last year we also had a gorgeous Staffie called Molly, until old age caught up with her. I have 15 years of experience, both caring for our dogs and also those belonging to family and friends. I have also previously owned rabbits and chickens. Our Jack Russell has epilepsy, so I have experience caring for a dog with an ailment, and ensuring medication is administered on time and as required. I am happy to walk any breed or size of dog, or if it’s a drop in that’s required, I’m happy to give your pet company, love and attention. I am also happy to do pick up/drop offs for vet appointments. Time management is key within my working week and I regularly have time both in the week, evenings and weekends for pet care services to be accommodated. We have a fully enclosed garden, and very close to a large park. Whilst we aren’t boarding at this time, any dog will be treated with the same love and affection as our own.

Daria H.
“Vacation is approaching and you think who will look after our dog? Who can we trust? Who is responsible to take care of our pooch? Of course, Daria, there is no better guardian for your favorite than Daria. Animals, especially dogs, mean everything to her. She loves them madly, and at the same time she is still very responsible. She cares about their health and safety-the same at home and on a long walk. It's nice to watch Daria play with dogs, there's joy and contentment here - dogs love her too. Sometimes they are not so eager to go back home and leave their new playmate :-). Iwona - flatmate.”


Afua Peprah S.
“Afua is very committed to animals of all kinds but especially dogs, when she’s with her dogs abroad she constantly sends photos to me to the extent you’d think I went on holiday with her! She’s dedicated and responsible and will handle your dog with care and patience, always putting your dog’s best interests first.”
