A huge thank you Shelby, Boris and the cats had a great time with you 🤗 I missed them all but I knew I didn't need to worry because I knew they were in capable hands. Also regular updates on how they was doing, put my mind at ease. This is the first time I have left my animals in someone else's hands and am just so glad it has been a positive experience. Thank you Shelby!

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.

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.

Meeting Josh for the first time was pleasing. Josh is a bright young man who we would definitely recommend. Our 9 week old pup Bentley warmed to him immediately and instantly all our nerves were settled. Josh came across as a animal lover with the potential to succeed in whatever he wants to achieve. We/Bentley can't wait to hire Josh again when necessary. Thank You Josh from Rob, Nina & Bentley.

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: After the two years in Canada, I have returned back to the UK. I have looked after many dogs and I love spending time with animals. I had a dog myself for four years and she’s currently living with my family in Canada. I would love to look after your dog whilst I get back on my feet, I have lots of free time and lots of training experience. I’m currently not working at the moment, so I have a lot of free time to look after your animal! I can work around schedules! Firstly, I always have eyes on the dog at all times, I treat them like two year old toddlers. I also monitor how much water and food your pup consumes. Regardless of how trained the dog is, will always keep the dog on a body leash on walks. As I have a very curious dog, I always have my eyes on what’s on the floor and around me because I don’t want my dog to pick up anything from the street or destroy anything in my house. This also means keeping a very clean home with nothing on the floor that a dog can get to. Whenever I take a dog outside and bring them back in, I always clean the paws and the mouth just ensure cleanliness is kept in all areas.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets since I was young, helping neighbours, friends, and family with feeding, walking, and playtime. I’m confident with pets of all temperaments, and ages. I’m patient, reliable, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m also happy to follow specific routines, administer basic care, and keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting on both weekdays and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets can feel at home. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, walking schedules, and any special care needs. I’m attentive, patient, and experienced with different temperaments, and I make sure pets are supervised, safe, and well cared for at all times.

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.

About: Hi, I’m Jasmine - your dog’s new trusted human! 🐾 I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all shapes and personalities, from gentle giants like Rottweilers and Bull Mastiffs to little charmers like Bichon Frises. Today, I’m the proud dog-mum of two cheeky cockerpoos who keep me endlessly entertained (and endlessly sweeping up fluff!).

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 in a family and we always had dogs as pets and have always loved every kind dog. I also have always looked after my friends dogs when needed and treated them like it was my own dog. In recent years I have assisted a family member who’s looks after dogs on a day care and boarding basis, in doing so I have gained experience of looking after all types of dogs I attend night college 1/2 a week at present and therefore I’m available most days and weekends to look after a dog of any kind I have my very own large apartment and am able to accommodate a dog easily and I’m surrounded by open spaces to walk the dog insuring any exercise and toilet needs are met.

About: Excited to meet you and your companion animals! I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and the company of a furry friend is second to none! The love from a dog is one of the best feelings ever. Unfortunately I am not able to have a dog of my own at the moment, so taking the best care of other people's dogs is the absolute next best thing. I will offer your beloved companion the best care while you are away and will do my hardest to temporarily fill the gap that your absence will leave! I work from home for the majority of the week, and also have the ability to bring a dog into the office if needed. As a result, I have a wide range of availability and will be available at most times to look after your companion animal 😊 It's always important to follow the guidance from the pets human companion. The safety of the furry friend I am looking after will always be my number 1 priority.

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 .

I can't recommend Vella enough as a dog sitter! From the moment I contacted her, she was warm and welcoming, making sure to understand my dog's needs and preferences. During the stay, she provided excellent care, ensuring my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-exercised. Vella shared regular updates and adorable photos. It's clear she genuinely loves dogs and treats them as her own. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!

I had the pleasure of having Audrey house sit and look after my cat while I was away on holiday, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She stayed overnight, gave me daily updates, and sent lovely pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. My cat was clearly happy, relaxed, and well looked after the entire time. Audrey went above and beyond – not just feeding and caring for him, but giving him the attention and affection he’s used to at home. It was such a relief knowing he was in such kind and capable hands. I’d absolutely recommend Audrey to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter – I’d book her again in a heartbeat!
