Our dog Pippa had a great time with Kezia when she came to dog sit for us. Kezia is very friendly and easy to work with, and Pippa was very at ease with her which made us feel reassured. Would definitely recommend.

This week Josh and Mosco had their first few days together. Mosco seems to have had a great time and was his usual chill, happy self when we got back. Josh was great, kept in touch in the run up and during the sit. Took care of the flat really well and hopefully enjoyed his time with Mosco. We will definitely be asking Josh for his time again.

About: I’ve had 2 dogs with my family for more than 10 years and have taken care of them both. I can follow instructions easily and have experience in giving prescribed medications to dogs due to one of ours taking medication for most of his doggy life. I currently work 3 days in the office, 2 days working from home and off on weekends. I can care for your pet on the days I’m off and working from home easily. I’m comfortable with whatever the owner need and want for their pets as long as instructions are communicated. I own a car and can travel to places if needed.

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of cats and dogs, including tabby cats, British Shorthairs, and Sphynx cats. I have also looked after many different dog breeds and have grown up around animals, having owned Rottweilers and a Poodle, and I currently care for my Shih Tzu and two tabby cats. I am very confident handling pets of different personalities and needs, including dogs with separation anxiety. I genuinely enjoy working with animals and take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. My aim is to give pet owners complete peace of mind, knowing their pets are in safe and loving hands at all times. I am a full-time SEN secondary teacher, however I spend my spare time (after 15:00) caring for cats and dogs, including my own pets. I have a strong passion for animals and really enjoy providing them with attentive, reliable care outside of my working hours. I am also available throughout all school term holidays, so if you are looking for a full-time pet sitter during these periods, please feel free to get in touch. In addition, I am open to last-minute weekend bookings where possible. With owner permission, I also love taking dogs out for enriching walks to places such as local parks or forests to ensure they are happy, stimulated, and enjoying their time while in my care. I have a fenced garden with plenty of space for pets to safely roam and enjoy themselves. I also have a female, friendly Shih Tzu named Paris, who is very sociable with other dogs and is also comfortable around cats, as she has lived alongside my two tabby cats. My cats are generally independent and often spend time outdoors in the neighbourhood or relaxing in their own space indoors, so visiting pets are able to have a calm and low-stress environment. I always ensure any pets in my care are introduced slowly and safely where needed, and I prioritise their comfort and wellbeing at all times.

About: I'm an active, outdoorsy person who genuinely loves being around dogs. I take your dog's exercise seriously: proper walks, real time outside, and plenty of stimulation. My hands-on experience comes from regularly walking and caring for two very different dogs — a Staffordshire Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I’m currently working from home with good flexibility. I can work around the schedule for helping out. Weekends should be free in the day too. My flat is a cosy, well-kept one-bedroom on an upper floor — no balcony or outdoor space, but we’re just a 5-minute walk from a park, so dogs get outside plenty. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the flat, which is worth knowing for smaller or older dogs.

About: Since a child I’ve had all kind of pets from fishes, hamsters, birds and rabbits to raising kittens and a puppy. I’ve also had the pleasure of helping out friends and family. There weren’t many years where I did not have an animal in my life!! I am currently working full time, however weekends at anytime and any work day after 5pm I’m capable of pet care, though I can make adjustments if needed as I work from home. As I will be doing mostly walks and sitting at owners home I will ask how your fur baby likes their company and how to best create safety for them.

About: Growing up I have cared for my own pets, neighbours pets, dont shy away from the muck work, grooming and other pet requirements. Will care to your extended family member as if they were my own. I am quite confident with different animals having cared. Love and care with deep genuine attention to the extended family member and will give you some trusted peace of mind that you have left your cared one in safe kind hands. I work full time and have alternative Mondays, Wednesdays and weekends off. Therefore I am flexible in how I can help you out. Cat/dog overnight homeowner stays, happy to house your cat for an overnight stay (wouldn't be fair to a dog to come and stay in my flat as I wouldn't be able to care for it throughout the day unless it's a one night or over night weekend stay when I am off. As I'd be able to take out on walks- have two beautiful greenspaces to chose from for long or short walks. I live in a flat with a balcony, I would be happy to house cats, smaller pets in their cage/tank throughout the week, but would have smaller availability for small dogs/medium dogs, due to full time work and I wouldn't be comfortable leaving them in a confined space without the care and attention they would require.

About: I have a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management where I achieved the highest possible grade of triple Distinction*.

About: I was an au pair in Australia looking after three kids and three dogs, two toy poodles and one regular sized poodle, the large poodle had issues with other dogs so learnt how to deal with that. Was the main care giver for them during the week and made sure they were fed,walked and happy. I have since cat sat for a number of friends who have gone abroad, from 4 days up to 3 months. I work from home full time, my housemate has a dog so he is home with me during the day. My work is very flexible so I can go for walks at anytime during the day when I don't have a meeting. I do have to go into the office on certain days during the month but I will inform you if you visit coincides with one of these days. I have a small fenced backyard so am able to let the dogs our into the back for a run around, I also live a short walk from the forest which I love to go walk around. I'm happy to have dogs/cats in my room if they are more comfortable sleeping with someone or happy to set up a crate if this is better for the dog.

About: I grew up around cats, I currently have two of my own, with all care dependant on me. I also walk dogs and pet sit during my free time. I know leaving your pet with someone new can be daunting which is why I always treat any animal under my care as my own. I strive to do my best in caring for your pet while you’re away. I aim to be dependable and someone you can trust to leave your pet in their hands. So don’t hesitate to get in touch:) I am currently in university so pet care is a very ideal option for me, as I still have a lot of availability. I love animals so this is a perfect opportunity. I work part time but I’d love to fit in animal care around my schedule. We can put any safety steps that you would like me to do, into place, whether that involves using crates, keeping windows/doors closed, etc… if your pet is wary of strangers, I’m more than willing to take the time to build trust with them.

Shelby did a fantastic job looking after our dogs and home while we were away. We returned to happy, well-cared-for pups and a clean, tidy house. It gave us great peace of mind knowing everything was being looked after so well. We would highly recommend Shelby and would happily use her services again

Klaudia was amazing. I made a mistake on the booking by half an hour and she very kindly accommodated us. Klaudia was calm and patient with Coco and took the time to understand her needs. She followed Coco’s routine down to the T. Was very happy and felt that Coco was in good hands. Klaudia was in our house and we felt she was very trustworthy and made us feel comfortable so we were able to enjoy our night out. Would definitely recommend and rebook Klaudia again.

Katie was a perfect house sitter for our 2 Goldens Heidi and Henry for 4 days. I would recommend Katie to anyone. She gave our 2 lots of play time and kept us updated regularly. The house was left so clean and tidy. Our train was delayed on our journey home and Katie stayed beyond her time to give them both their dinner. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Will definitely be using Katie again .
