“Absolutely the best dog sitter ! Not only did he take amazing care of both our dogs—making sure they were happy, healthy, and loved—but he also went above and beyond by tidying up the house before we got back. That was such a thoughtful touch and totally unexpected. It’s clear he genuinely cares. We came home to two very content pups and a spotless home. Can’t recommend him highly enough!”

“Ellie was absolutely amazing with our puppy. We got lots of photos and updates and felt really reassured that she was in good hands, and our house was perfect when we got back. Thank you so much Ellie!”

“I couldn't recommend Jess more. She dog sat for our 9 month old cocker spaniel puppy and was fantastic. We asked her to keep us updated throughout the weekend and she did, with lots of photos and videos. Our puppy is a bit anxious and quite a handful, but she was great with him and he seemed so relaxed when we got back.”


About: I have cared for and owned dogs since I was 12 (35 years and counting!). I absolutely love dogs and think you can never have enough of them in your life. Have lots of experience with dogs of all ages, and have cared for some lovely elderly rescue dogs. I work full time but 3 days a week from home until 3pm. On my office days I am available from 5pm and throughout Saturdays I live in a secure apartment on Aigburth Road, with a patch of grass for toileting. I am equidistant to Sefton Park and Princes Park, so lots of opportunities for nice, safe walks

About: I’m 18 years old and have grown up with 3 different dogs since I was 8 years old. Through my own personal experience with family dogs, I’ve gained plenty of confidence and independence from my responsibilities walking my dog, feeding, bathing, dog-proofing the house, playing, etc etc. I also have a strong knowledge of certain precautions you may need to take depending on the dog, for example my dog, Karmel, is an anxious, quite barky lurcher who can get too playful with other dogs and therefore I take extra care on walks when she’s saying hello at the dog park, and have dealt with aggressive dogs barking and jumping at her before. My family have also done borrow my doggy beforehand so I’ve met and looked after a range of different dogs, adding to my experience and knowledge of how to take care of them. I’m currently on a gap year so I’m almost fully flexible at the moment (I have some tutoring jobs), so pet care fits in perfectly for me as it’s something I’m genuinely passionate and excited about, and something I definitely have the time and love for! :) I would not be able to bring other pets into my home due to owning a dog myself that can be quite hot and cold with other dogs and therefore I don’t fully trust her getting along with a new dog in the house.
“Lilly is a lovely person and my dog gets really excited to see her, she has house sat several times for me overnight, I always come home to a very happy relaxed pup, house is always left immaculate, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone, thank you Lilly x”

“Julian is awesome! Took very good care of our dog and while at it also taught her some more manners (she needed some polishing) and shared with us videos of how he does it. Extremely pleased with our first Rover experience and next time we need a dog sitter, will first of all check if Julian is available. Thanks Julian!”

“Emily was gave my dog Nala amazing care and she's made a new friend in pickles. Will certainly be contacting her for further care requirements in the future. Great communication and sent me several pictures of Nala whilst I was away.”

“Jack and Bee were amazing looking after my border collie. They were super helpful organising drop off and pick up, and sent across updates and pictures throughout the day. I would definitely recommend and will be using their services again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small pets for years. Experienced with senior care and medication. I love taking dogs on long walks and runs. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with pets! I’m available for walks, runs, boarding on weekends, and weekday afternoons. I have a secure fenced garden and always supervise playtime. I follow each pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and can crate your dog if needed for comfort and safety.
“Gemma was amazing, we booked her based on her reviews and we are so glad we did. Lola and Cassie had a lovely 24 hours with Gemma, we got loads of picture updates and knew the dogs were in safe hands. I would certainly recommend Gemma to anybody looking for a dog sitter and we will definitely be using her again. Thankyou so much!”

About: I have grown up with own dogs but sadly my two pups (Mutley and Meg) are no longer with us, so I would like to help others with their pet needs! I also work at Puppy Yoga UK, caring for puppies of all breeds. - Dog first aid trained (valid until 2028.) - Experience with most breeds, small and large. - Confident in administering insulin or other medicines. - Extensive experience in puppy care. - Comfortable with dogs dealing with anxiety separation or behavioural needs. I’m currently looking for work opportunities so I have lots of flexibility. If trusted with your pet, I will ensure that my schedule fits your needs completely beforehand. As I currently live at my family home, I am only able to offer house sitting and not home boarding. I am a clean freak, respectful to neighbours and would have an in depth conversation about your expectations, whether this included plant care etc.

About: •I Have had a retired racing greyhound for 6 years- so understand dogs with high prey drive •I volunteer at a greyhound rescue centre- so have experienced a range of different temperaments •I study Zoology at University I enjoy cooking, getting outside and going to the gym as well as the occasional pub trip with friends. I’m not currently employed so looking after your pet won’t be a problem at all. I use a crate for my own dog at night in our household but understand not all people do the same so can easily adapt to what your “rules” are. I believe in positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviours and think punishment is not something to be justified in any circumstance. I have a fenced garden and know the importance of checking for closed gates as I personally don’t fancy chasing after the second fastest land mammal 🤣!
“Molly has been amazing minding our staffy cross and XL bully. Nothing was too much trouble for her including coming to the house before hand and taking one of the dogs out before she stayed as he can be temperamental with other dogs. We can’t wait to have her stay again as she is reliable and treated our dogs as her own, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our boys!”

About: I currently hold an OFQUAL level 3 in Canine Care, Welfare and Behaviour, as well as a certificate in Canine First Aid, and am currently studying a Level 4 in Canine Training and Behavioural Management. I have spent the last two years working hands-on with dogs in boarding and daycare facilities. This has involved providing high levels of care for breeds of all sizes and temperaments from Papillons and Chihuahuas to Great Danes and XL Bullies. This involved managing their excercise, enrichment, training, rest, feeding, and medication. I see each dog as unique, an individual with individual needs, and a personality to match! Whether your dog has unique quirks, issues with reactivity, or require those breed-specific extras (I'm a Border Collie owner myself so fully understand), they can be catered for. I am currently available Monday through to Thursday for walking and sitting, which allows plenty of time to give your dogs the attention they need. I am fully qualified and experienced dog handler, and as such can provide the highest quality of care for your dog, using only the most up to date methods of positive reinforcement.

About: I know trusting someone to care for your pet can feel stressful. But I'll make your dog feel safe, happy and very loved. I've taken care of dogs for nearly 10 years. I've looked after a range of breeds and ages - from a puppy cockerspaniel through to a big and energetic Golden Doodle - and understand every dog is different. I'll get to know your pet's personality, what they like and their routines so staying with me feels like a home away from home. I am self-employed and work from home, so I'll always be around to give cuddles and lots of attention. Sefton Park, Princes Park and Otterspool Promenade are all a ten minute walk form my house. So, there are plenty of lovely green space for us to go and explore together! I am self-employed and work from home, which means I can adapt to your pet's routine and have plenty of time for cuddles and play. I have a walled yard - perfect for dogs who like to chill in the outdoors. I have a three bedroom house, so there's plenty of room for your pet to wander around indoors. Dog are allowed upstairs.

Harley was great with our dogs especially Victor who is very nervous. He spent time to understand their needs and kept us updated daily. They clearly both enjoyed spending time with him and the house was spotless when we returned and he even washed the bedding and towels 😍. Would definitely recommend and use his services again.

Claire was fantastic and took such great care of our cat, Frank, as well as our home. She kept us updated regularly with lots of messages and photos, which made me feel really reassured that he was getting plenty of company and affection while we were away. It was the first time we'd left Frank for more than a couple of days, so this really helped me feel at ease as it was clear our cat was relaxed, happy and in capable hands. She left the house just as we found it and we would definitely book Claire again next time we need a cat sitter.

Thank you so much for taking cate of the pets! They had such a great time. Marcella was very attentive to all my animals and sent lots of pictures for me to see (and even set up a video chat with us so my kid could see them pets!) She went above and beyond. Cannot say thank you enough!

Chloe recently looked after our dog Winston at short notice for a wedding. She was very professional accommodated things at the last minute . Winston is quite clearly settled and was well looked after . She provided timely updates and we enjoyed our trip thoroughly because we knew he was in such safe hands. I would thoroughly recommend.

Jess was really lovely with our rescue greyhound that has seperation anxiety. She popped to meet him before the first session, took the time to understand our needs and even played him music and read to him! She is flexible with timings and responsive to messages and updates and is clearly expereinced with lots of different dogs. He loved her and we are all looking forward to her next visit!

Lily was absolutely wonderful looking after my cat, Dennis. She kept me updated throughout with regular messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Dennis was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Lily is lovely, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She also left my home spotless and tidy, which was greatly appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Lily!

Anna took amazing care of our 2 dogs and cat while we were away on holiday. She was so responsive and attentive to their needs and routines, communicated often and was so friendly. I could tell from the photos that our pets felt right at home with her and loved her company. We would absolutely trust Anna with our pets anytime!

Emma came and stayed with Scout in my flat for four nights . I was a slightly anxious as Scout had suffered a slipped disc in her neck last year so there are certain things she shouldn’t do like jumping on and off furniture, climbing stairs etc . Emma took all this on board and followed the routine I have in place which certainly alleviated any stress I might have had . She also kept in touch daily and sent photos and videos which also helped my peace of mind . This all helped me to have a nice relaxing break knowing Scout was being well cared for in her own house .Scout had a great time with Emma with lots of walks and attention and looked happy and healthy when I got back . I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emma as dog minder/ house sitter and would definitely book her again in the future .
we had a great experience with Emilie! she was very lovely, accommodating and very understanding of our cats slightly weird routines! we really appreciated the regular updates and it gave us peace of mind. it was very clear our cat got on well with her and looked genuinely comfortable and relaxed. would recommend to anyone looking for someone caring & trustworthy :)
