“Clare was amazing and kept us updated all day we were out. She showed such love and care for Sybil and really understood Sybil’s seperation anxiety. Thank you so much! So glad we found you!”

“Corina is absolutely lovely & we have no reservations about booking her again & again. This was the second time. She took our fur baby out for a decent walk & sent a photo with update. It's like leaving your precious pooch with a trusted family member. Highly recommend 😊”

“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.”

“Roslyn looked after Silas really well and he seemed very happy. She gave us lots of updates and seemed to intuitively know what he needed. She is obviously experienced and we will undoubtedly book her again.”

“Renee took excellent care of Marvel. They had walkies, cuddles and I got regular updates with photos. Renee was prompt on time and communicated clearly before, during and after the sit. Looking forward to having her back and so is Marvel!”

“Anya did an amazing job looking after my dog Arthur. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely cares about animals, and Arthur was happy and relaxed in her company. She kept me updated, made sure all his needs were met, and gave him plenty of attention and affection. When I returned home, the house was clean and tidy, which was a lovely bonus. It was clear that both Arthur and my home had been very well looked after. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Anya to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and respectful of their home. I’d happily book her again.”

“Wonderful, caring sitter. Kirsten ensured my dog had a really good care & provided lots of updates. My dog is usually a little unsure with strangers but Kirsten’s calm, caring manner meant she was able to settle in her care after one initial meet. First time using any kind of sitting service and it was very successful. Thank you, Kirsten.”

About: I have an extensive history of working with dogs. I have owned working therapy dogs and have been working at a dog sanctuary for the past 2 years, handling dogs from all walks of life and all sizes. Dogs give so much love voluntarily and deserve that back. I insist dogs are walked for a good few mikes daily unless medically incapable. I will ensure they are fed to your specification and will follow any behavioural instructions you may have in place to ensure continuity. I am open to any questions you may have or to alleviate any concerns you may have. I am freely available for any pet care needs all I ask is for the advanced notice stated. I also have to collect my son from school on a Wednesday and every other Friday so the dog would need to be ok for a short period of time alone. I have a gated garden and a big field and woods near by. I can crate your dog if required. I am flexible and will work around your needs. If boarding, then dog/cat would need to be dropped and collected from my property.
About: What sets me apart is my ability to balance structured care with plenty of love and playtime. I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and understood, whether that means high-energy walks for active dogs or cozy snuggles for older ones. Pet parents can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring, treating every pet as if they were my own. Currently I'm fully flexible for the foreseeable future ~ if not than my Wife os happy to accommodate/take over. Mon through to Sunday, any hours, just liase with me and I'll do my best to meet your needs. I am on the ground floor of an apartment complex situated near Greenhithe Station/Ingress Park. An outdoor sealed off balcony, safe for Dogs & I would say Cat's but they have no boundaries 😂 With plenty of outdoor and walking space.
“Matilda house sat for a week for us while we were on holiday. We have come home to a very happy dog and an immaculately clean house! Charlie has obviously been really well looked after and I would not hesitate to ask Matilda to care for him again.”

“We couldn’t ask for more with Katie! She was amazing with our dog Mila from when she arrived. We received regular updates and we felt totally at ease while we were away. Katie is a fantastic sitter, she is brilliant and we’ll be in touch very soon! Thanks Katie!”


“Mach loves Clare , he was so happy with her. Clare looked after Mach so well , lots of love and plenty of fun and games I was so happy to leave Mach with Clare and will not hesitate to do so again Thank you. Clare. Love from Mach🐾🐾”

About: I have always liked working with animals and I enjoy volunteering at various animal care and rescue centres including cat and dog shelters. I am DBS checked, insured. I have done dog and cat behaviour courses and am a member of DWSA. I'm available for dog walking on week days and pet sitting in the evenings and on weekends. Currently I am unavailable most Tuesdays and Wednesday but with enough advance notice that can be changed. I will always make sure to take time to let the dog or cat get to know me and to learn their preferences and I will always try to learn and use the owners signals and cues.
About: I am a cat mum to Bert (our rescue cat). I have walked friends/neighbours dogs. Most of my friends have dogs and my close friend has recently adopted a puppy so I have been spending lots of time with him. I have looked after friends’ cats too whilst they were on holiday. I have grown up with pets so have a real love for them. As a teenager, I looked after our rabbits. As a pet owner myself, I can assure you that your pet will be in safe, loving hands ❤️ I work full-time as a teacher but have the afternoons/evenings free to walk your pets and spend quality time with them. I can also do weekends any time, if you give me some notice. I will have more flexibility in the summer holidays too! I can visit your pet whilst you are away. I can feed them, clean litter trays, walk them, play with them and follow any care instructions that you may have.
About: I've had pets all my adult life and often care for family and friends pets. I offer a home from home for your pet allowing for you to provide their normal bedding etc. I have experience with puppies and kittens and elderly pets therefore, all your needs will be covered. I have flexibility in my work schedule therefore offer full flexibility to you. Overnight stays are also available either in my house or your property. I have a fully enclosed garden with access to a small park behind my property and extensive open spaces, woodland and parks within close proximity. I will be guided by you as to what fits your pets needs and what will make you comfortable when your pet is in my care.
About: Friends, neighbours and family have all counted on me to look after their pets. I have bathed, walked, pet sat, fed the pets that I have cared for. The care I have provided includes dog-walking. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I have plenty of free time to burn and have a blast with your cute pets! I am available in the morning & afternoon, but I'm flexible and can accommodate mornings and evenings too. If they have any specific needs/anything that I need to be aware about e.g. doesn't like traffic, other dogs etc. Also if you have any specific rules for your dog such as not being allowed on furniture or no treats during the day.

We are committed that our home will be like your home while you are away. You can have peace of mind and enjoy your holiday by receiving videos and photos throughout the day.

That is why I can say I have the courage to face any adversity in a controlled and calm. I'm a housewife that's why I have a lot of time to spend on your pet. My husband Dennis also works from home and he is an excellent petsitter too. His schedule allows him to help me with pets at home.

Whether it's a gentle introduction to the space or extra cuddles, we make sure they feel safe and comfortable right from the start. I have a big fenced back garden for your dog to wonder. There are lots of green areas around for our walks where similarly other pet owners walk there dogs in a safe and calm environment. More than 2.000 dogs are stolen every year in the UK which is why we will be very focused when we go outside with your doggy. Every dog is unique, and understanding their specific needs helps us provide the best care.

Thank you for housesitting for Peggy and Charlie. We came home to calm, happy pets and home and would highly recommend Anya. She bonded with our cat and dog, took note of their routines and kept us updated throughout. She is easy to communicate with and arrived punctually. In summary we are very comfortable trusting her to house sit and have already made a future booking. Thanks again Anya 😊
