Teodora was fantastic and I fully recommend her. She was professional at all times. She is a proper animal person and my cat took to her immediately. Teodora is dependable and I really appreciated her detailed updates and photos upon every visit and her communications and quick responses meant I was completely comfortable and assured with her looking after my cat and I will definitely use Teodora again in the future. Top rated and highly recommend.

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.

First time leaving the cats for a holiday and all i can say is WOW! Owen and Renata were amazing! Even with one of my cats who’s temperamental! The full 4 days I got pictures every day and a full report which just made us relax so much more on our holiday! I couldn't fault anything! Would definitely recommend! Thank you both so much for everything you've done!

Romford, RM7

About: I have always had a strong passion for animals and a natural ability to care for them. From the age of 14 to 16, I regularly walked dogs around my neighbourhood, building experience with different breeds and temperaments. I grew up with Rottweilers, so I am confident handling larger, strong dogs as well as smaller pets. I currently have a cat, who I have successfully trained to sit for treats, showing my patience and understanding of animal behaviour. I have also volunteered at animal rescues, further developing my hands-on experience and compassionate approach. I provide a loving, safe, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. My cat is both dog- and cat-friendly and has previously lived with a Rottweiler who is his best friend and still sees regularly, so I am happy to host pets that are comfortable around cats. I am also more than happy to care for dogs of any temperament in their own home, ensuring they feel relaxed and secure in a familiar environment. I have a flexible and reliable schedule, as I currently work part-time while my partner is at home full-time. This means there will always be someone present to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. Together, we have lots of time to play, provide companionship, and ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved at all times. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, your pet will never be left feeling lonely and will receive consistent, attentive care. I offer a safe and comfortable environment for pets, with a large, fully fenced garden where they can play and explore securely. I live on a quiet, non-busy road, making walks calm and stress-free. I can also provide a crate if needed, whether for training, rest, or to maintain your pet’s usual routine. My home is a relaxed, pet-friendly space where your pet will feel safe, settled, and well cared for.

About: I'm a full-time animal carer who has worked with a number of different animals, mostly cats and dogs, but does have experience with smaller mammals, birds and lizards as well. I usually have a very flexible schedule, so can work around your day to day plans. I can do short or long term stays, whatever is easiest. I always put the animals needs above all else, their health is my top priority. I can follow instructions and directions from the owner if there any "do's" or "don'ts" they have for their pets. I like to be clear in my communication with any owner and update them whenever I can, so if any problems occur, I will be quick to inform them.

Naomi did an amazing job looking after my two cats. She kept me informed of how they were and wasn't fazed by the diva antics of one the fur balls:-D. She really put my mind at rest, completely recommend.

About: I used to have a dog and have always been surrounded by them be it with family, neighbours and friends, they make me really happy. Having heavy weeks I can’t think of anything better than unwind in the company of a dog during the weekend whilst giving and receiving love. I live in a flat but I have a huge park next to the house. I also have a balcony but all in all the dog would never be in any danger at home and would have loads of space to run around in the park.

Kimberly was fantastic. We have a foster dog who has only been in a home (first time ever) for a few days and our other dog recently lost the dog he’s been with for five years to cancer so he’s grieving. She was amazing with two complex dogs, cleaned up a mess from the sick dog because she was worried about our floors and just went above and beyond. I wasn’t expecting anything other than letting them out and giving them a treat, but she was wonderful! I would absolutely recommend.

I booked Adina last minute to take care of my cat Archie on a bank holiday weekend when my other cat sitter cancelled last weekend. Adina was able to squeeze me in. Adina took very good care of Archie, and I was reassured by her prompt communication and care that Archie was well taken care of over the weekend. Archie had just been recently rehomed to me and this was the first time that I had left him overnight and with a sitter, so I was initially nervous but that soon melted away with the photos and videos Adina sent me. I would recommend Adina to anyone.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs regularly for the past 3 years, mostly looking after two senior dogs for one friend and a young puppy for another. This has given me experience with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, from gentle senior care to playful puppy stages. From age 15 I cared for dogs within my family, supporting with walks, feeding, and keeping them settled while owners were away. In addition, I‘ve cared for my family kitten, and as an indoor cat, he required consistent feeding, litter care, playtime, and a calm presence, something I’m very comfortable providing. Working from home, enables me to give consistent attention throughout the day and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Every dog or cat in my care is treated with patience, attentiveness, and love. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care, supervision, companionship and regular walks or drop-ins throughout the day. I’m flexible during weekdays and available most weekends, making it easy to fit pet care naturally into my routine. When caring for dogs or cats in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions provided. I ensure doors and gates are always secured, keep environments tidy and safe. If crate training is part of their routine, I’m comfortable supporting that in a gentle and positive way. My focus is always on providing a safe, consistent, and loving environment while you’re away.

The most important thing is that my cat liked Beatrice, which meant she responded well to Beatrice, ate her food and took her meds. Beatrice took my parcels in, put the bins out and gave her cuddles. Thank you Beatrice, it’s a weight off my mind to have someone I can rely on.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12 - whether it was my neighbors or my friends. Until my parents decided to buy me 2 of my own puppies! I treat every dog like family, providing one-on-one care tailored to their needs. I can help reinforce basic commands, crate training, and good leash manners. I love senior dogs and the more cuddles the better! Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles, I ensure they get the attention they need. I will always keep you updated with pictures and messages. Your dog’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I currently work flexible hours as I am currently a Senior Manager at a leisure centre which also allows me to work from home on most days. I am completely free on weekends. I have a fenced yard and sometimes my 2 fur babies will come over with my parents. I can also easily crate your dog if needed and my house currently have inside cameras in which you can access whilst I am looking after your pets.

Steve was very reliable, punctual and did a great job. There was a situation where we were watching our cat on camera without any food left and looking for food. I messaged Steve and to my surprise he was over not long after that which was very early in the morning. This meant the world to us and shows how kind hearted he is❤️

Absolutely amazing cat sitter! Teodora took such great care of Stitchy and Fluffy and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, caring, attentive, and clearly loves animals. The cats were happy and well looked after when I came home. I’ll definitely be using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.

I am so happy I found April. She looked after my beagle Pyppa with so much care and kindness. My dog is not easy (older and a bit anxious), but April was very patient and understanding. I felt at ease knowing Pyppa was in good hands. Highly recommend!
