“Lucy looked after Rocky for 3 nights and the whole experience was brilliant from start to finish. Everything from the initial meet and greet, to the swift communication and sending of photos and updates during the stay was great. I liked the fact that Lucy is clearly an experience animal handler. Thank you so much Lucy. xx”

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!

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.

About: Welcome to Lola’s Lounge, where tails wag, toys squeak, and your dog becomes part of the family! We're a dog-loving couple with a sweet little Yorkie named Lola (almost 3 going on fabulous), and we’d love to welcome your pup into our happy home.

We absolutely love being outdoors, and whenever the weather allows, we take the pups out to local parks and scenic spots for exciting walkies and sniff-tastic adventures What your pup can expect: A built-in buddy: Lola is social, playful, and always up for a new friend. TLC all day long: With one of us home, your pup gets plenty of attention and care. Outdoor fun: Walks in the park, garden playtime, and weekend mini-adventures. Home comforts: No kennels here—just comfy beds, tasty treats, and chill vibes. Pupdates for you: We send cute photos and updates so you never miss a moment!

Both of us are off on the weekends so guaranteed play time and cuddles. We ensure that your pup will be kept on lead on walks.

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.

About: I'm a mum of 2 human kids, 1 German Shepherd dog & 6 beautiful cats. I grew up around pets & farm animals & always wanted to work with them. In recent years I volunteered for a local cat rescue for about a year & decided to go back and complete my first aid courses and pursue my dream of working with pets whilst running my own business. Having successfully completed first aid for cats & kittens and Advanced first aid for dogs and puppies, I'm very keen to start building my pet care business whilst helping others look after their pets & make new friends, both human and all. I am able to work around my kids and am available most weekdays & weekends including school holidays. My kids are use to being around animals too. I treat any pet as if it were my own & give it the same love & affection I would to my own fur babies

“They are just amazing! They took care of Trufa, our dog, and I felt completely comfortable leaving her with them, especially since she is a bit nervous. They gave her all their love, and Trufa felt like she was with us! They sent me photos of Trufa and their walks. The best part was when I picked Trufa up, she was so relaxed. That, for me, was proof that she was happy. We will book with them again soon. Thanks for being so kind to Trufa.”


About: Why I Love Caring for Dogs I’ve spent over 5 years caring for dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments—including several elderly pups needing extra patience and love. One of my most rewarding experiences was rescuing a 16-year-old dog and giving him a happy, peaceful life until nearly 19. I understand how important trust, routine, and kindness are—especially for nervous or older dogs. Our Home in Horsham We live in a spacious, three-storey home in Horsham with a large, secure fenced garden—perfect for dogs to play, sniff, and explore safely. Dogs are welcome on the furniture (if that’s allowed at home!) and there’s plenty of room indoors for quiet rest or playful zoomies. There’s easy parking on the drive for smooth drop-offs and pick-ups. Always Someone at Home My partner and I both work from home full-time, so your dog will never be left alone. We’re happy to stick closely to your pup’s usual routine to help them feel relaxed and settled while you’re away. Experience & Special Skills • 5+ years of dog care experience • Comfortable with senior dogs, nervous pups, and rescues • Confident administering oral medication and supporting special routines • Patient, calm, and very affectionate • Happy to reinforce basic training or offer gentle enrichment • Love long walks—whether it’s a slow sniffy stroll or something more energetic 5+ Years of Loving Dog Care — Just Like Home With over 5 years of experience, I’ve looked after dogs of all ages, from energetic pups to elderly dogs needing extra patience and understanding. One of my most rewarding experiences was rescuing a 16-year-old dog and giving him a calm, loving home until almost 19. We provide individual, attentive care in a peaceful and dog-friendly environment—perfect for dogs who need gentle handling and a stable routine. Peaceful Home in Horsham with a Secure Garden We live in a quiet, calm household—just me and my partner—and we’re both lifelong dog lovers who work from home full time. Your dog will always have company and be part of our peaceful daily life. Our three-storey home has plenty of indoor space and a large, secure fenced garden for safe play and fresh air. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and treated like family. One Dog or Household at a Time To keep things calm and stress-free, we only host one dog—or multiple dogs from the same household—at a time. This means your pup won’t have to share space or attention with unfamiliar dogs. It’s ideal for older, nervous, or low-energy dogs who just want comfort and care. Tailored Care with Patience & Love • Experienced with elderly dogs, rescues & nervous pups • Calm, gentle care in a quiet environment • Medication (oral) and special diet support • Walks tailored to your dog’s age and pace • Loving attention, enrichment, or space to rest—whatever they need • Daily photo & message updates for peace of mind A Typical Day Might Include: • Morning garden time and relaxed breakfast • A gentle walk (or longer, if your dog enjoys it) • Time indoors for rest, enrichment, or cuddles • Afternoon garden break and structured downtime • Evening walk or play session before bed Let’s Meet First I always recommend a free meet & greet before the first booking so we can get to know your dog’s needs, habits, and preferences. Whether they love belly rubs or just need a quiet spot to nap, we’re here to make them feel at home. 📝 Why Book With Us • 5+ years of reliable dog care experience • Calm, quiet household — just me and my partner • Someone always home • Large, fully fenced garden • Dogs welcome on furniture • One dog or household at a time • Medication and special care experience • Tailored walks & daily updates • Patient, loving and fully focused care

Rosemary H.
“I have known Rosemary (Rosie) for over 30 years. She is such a kind, intelligent and conscientious person. I have a rescue dog from Romania and Rosie has looked after her on occasions when I have needed someone as my dog has separation anxiety. She is always very happy to see Rosie and feels safe and secure. Rosie has as lovely home with a big garden and I am sure any dog would be happy to spend time there. In addition, Rosie took over the care of an elderly dog when a friend of hers become too sick to look after him. This dog had many additional needs and Rosie cared for him and gave him the best life possible for the last few years of his life. I 100% recommend Rosie as an excellent carer for your fur baby!”
