About: We are a married couple who have been living and teaching in Dubai for the past 25 years. During that time, we happily raised our two children here, and this year we’ve just seen our youngest follow her brother to university in the UK. With this exciting new chapter ahead, we’re ready for a new adventure—combining our love of travel with our lifelong love of dogs. Dogs have always been an important part of our lives. Over the years, we have fostered dogs and we adopted our lovely retriever Lizzie, who was a truly cherished member of our family. We’ve also cared for a variety of family dogs and dog sit poochies - including: dachsunds, cockapoos, spaniels, terriers, mixed breed, bichons and weimaraners - Deb grew up with a labrador - so we’re very comfortable with furry friends of different breeds, personalities, and needs. We also have excellent dog-sit references and reviews. We are genuine dog lovers who believe dogs should be part of everyday life. Long walks, companionship, and plenty of affection are all part of our routine. We’re calm, reliable, clean, and tidy, and we take great pride in being respectful of other people’s homes. When we stay in your home, we will treat it as if it were our own, and your dog as if they were part of our family. Myself and my wife are semi-retired teachers who work from home. We are therefore extremely flexible regarding location and the duration of the sit. We offer a bespoke service that will adhere to the requirements of the dog owner and the needs of our furry friend. We will provide a safe and loving environment while you are away.

“Danielle was such a lovely lady, very well organised and super communication. At a meet and greet our cat warmed to her immediately which gave us such confidence. Sadly we had to cancel last minute due to illness and Danielle was very understanding. We were so impressed we've booked her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals all my life as I grew up with dogs, cats and ponies. I began my working life in the 1980’s as a veterinary nurse for a few years and then a dairy hand, raising calves in Israel for several years. On my return to England I began free lance yard work at various livery stables and house sitter for large and small animals. I do have a part time job, 4hrs in the afternoons on week days and 6-10 on a Saturday, but still have time for walks and play, depending on the needs of the animals I’m caring for. I have a friendly miniature bull terrier for company. We go on lots of walks and as I have a car, we travel to some lovely woods and country walks. I’ve been house sitting for a few years now so am pretty adept at finding new walks in new areas and navigating a variety of kitchens ( almost more tricky than going out for a walk! ). House sitting allows me to keep the animals of the household in their routine, care for all the pets there and keep an eye on the property itself.

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 10 years old. My friends and family rely on me to look after theirs when they go on holiday. I love spending time with them and look after the stray cats in my neighborhood. I'm currently working part time. I will have plenty of time to look after and play with your pets. I can do the occasional weekends when I don't have plans. I have a fenced garden where my cats feel safe. I however won't be able to look after your cats in my home due to me having my own

About: I've grown up with Countless animals such as Chickens, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs. The longest standing of them all was my Cat who made it to 21, I cared for him a lot towards the end of his life so now i have a pet friendly house but no pet of my own... for now. I would love so much to care for other people pets knowing that they are completely safe with me. I currently work part-time at Go Ape. I mainly work on Weekends and School Holidays however my hours are very flexible. I love the outdoors so I often spend my free time taking walks and hikes. I currently have no pets of my own. My house is entirely pet friendly however it is on the third floor and is a medium sized 1 bedroom flat. There is no garden however I live 5 minutes from many fields and parks.

“Helen looked after our three dogs over the weekend, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. All three dogs were very well looked after, and were clearly happy and content during their time with Helen. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would definitely recommend Helen to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you, Helen! 🐾”

About: I am a second year veterinary student with a lifelong passion for animals and hands-on-experience caring for a wide range of pets. Growing up with animals, I have trained my own dogs and regularly care for family, friends and neighbours dogs. Through my veterinary studies, I have developed knowledge of animal behaviour, handling, health and welfare allowing me to easily spot if any health issues arise in your pet. I have also completed placements at a dog and cat boarding kennel and an animal rescue centre giving me practical experience working with animals of different ages, temperaments and needs. I provide reliable and compassionate care, treating every pet as if they were my own. I have recently completed my second year of veterinary studies and am available for pet care from now until 28th September. My schedule is highly flexible including week days and weekends allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. Please note that I have veterinary placement commitments during the weeks commencing 17th august and 24th august 2026. During these two weeks, I will be available on weekday evenings after 6pm and throughout the weekends. Outside of these dates, I am available throughout the day and can offer a high degree of flexibility to suit owners schedules. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow all instructions provided regarding feeding, exercise medication and any specific care requirements ensuring each pet receives attentive and individual care. I take the time to provide companionship, enrichment and exercise appropriate to the pets needs while monitoring their health and wellbeing. As a veterinary student, I am familiar with animal behaviour allowing me to recognise signs of stress, illness or discomfort and respond appropriately. I also treat owners houses with respect, keeping the area clean and tidy and providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My aim is to ensure both pets and owners feel relaxed and confident throughout the pet sitting experience.

“If you're heading to Alton Towers and need a place to leave your dog, Lorena's the spot. She lives just 20 minutes away, so it was a great choice to drop off and pick up our dog when we were done for the day. Her house is lovely, with a nice garden, and she welcomed our dog with open arms. Lorena was great, and our dog was thrilled with her. We'd for sure do this again if we come back to the UK.”

“Phoebe was great from the start, we have been let down last minute by another sitter and 3 days to go for our trip, Phoebe was quick in responding and our two Labrador’s absolutely loved her! House was left as we left it, and daily updates and photos made our separation anxiety much easier to handle! Thank you we will definitely use Phoebe again ❤️”

“We left our 6 month old fox red lab with clare why we attended a hospital appointment with our daughter. Having met clare beforehand we knew Rusty would be in good hands . On the day clare arrived early and we explained a few things before heading off . We had lots of updates whilst we were out , pictures and videos and to be honest he seemed happier than he is with us ... lol . And when we got back the house was clean and tidy ..... amazing thanks clare 👍. Clare certainly has a lot of experience and he warmed to her straight away. I would have no doubt about leaving Rusty with her again and can fully recommend her services. Thanks again clare . :-)”

About: I care for your pets in your home thereby offering a bespoke one to one service giving you and your pets 100% of my attention, love and care. This is my full-time occupation, so I will not be leaving your pets for long periods of time to work elsewhere. They will receive my full undivided attention. I understand that leaving your home and pets can be stressful. My priority is to maintain your pets normal feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules to blend seamlessly into their normal routine whilst also looking after your home. I can assure you that I am deeply respectful of your home and will leave it exceptionally clean and tidy for your return. I am happy to water plants, collect mail, and take out the bins while you are away. Also, I will send you regular photo and text updates, unless you prefer me not to.

“Andrew took care of Lucy, Winston and the chickens this weekend again. He did amazing, everyone is happy and healthy. Two chickens were broody and he picked up on it which is impressively observant and makes us feel very reassured he’d notice in case an animal was sick.”

“This is the first time I have used David. He turned up right on time and my dog Laika took to him straight away. David was respectful of my property and left it clean, tidy and secure. Very pleased as this is the first time I have used a home sitter/dog walker in many, many years. Already have further bookings with David.”

About: Hi, I’m Phoebe, an experienced and reliable dog walker who genuinely loves spending time with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve had hands-on experience with a range of dogs, from gentle, easygoing companions like my own Lab/collie Milo (“Spuds”) to energetic, intelligent pups like my new addition golden retriever Goose. I understand that every dog is different, and I always adapt my approach to suit their individual needs; whether that’s a calm, steady walk, a fun and engaging play session, or simply providing company and reassurance. My two friendly, well-socialised dogs will join your pooch (unless you specified otherwise), on a pack walk, drop-in session or day-care adventure. This is a particularly great socialisation opportunity for dogs who enjoy canine company, come from a single-pup household or would benefit from some confidence building with other dogs in a safe and controlled environment. I’m confident with reinforcing good behaviour both inside the home and whilst out and about. Safety, trust, and making sure your dog feels happy and comfortable are always my top priorities. Pet care fits really naturally into my day as I work part-time from home, so I have a lot of flexibility. I tend to start my mornings early, which works perfectly for dogs who need a good walk or some attention before the day gets busy. Because I’m home-based, I can plan my day around the dogs I’m looking after, whether that’s longer walks, more active playtime, or just keeping them company so they’re not left on their own for too long. I’m able to be present and not rushed, which I think makes a big difference. It’s something I genuinely enjoy building into my routine, not squeezing in, so each dog gets the time, care, and attention they need to feel happy and settled. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m based in a quiet, rural area with access to safe walking routes and open spaces, ideal for calm, enjoyable walks and enrichment. My approach is always centred around creating a positive, secure, and stress-free experience for every dog in my care. My two friendly, well-socialised dogs, Milo (“Spuds”) and Goose, can also be involved in walks where appropriate, giving your dog the opportunity to enjoy positive pack walks, socialisation, and confidence-building in a safe and controlled environment. Whether I’m caring for your dog during walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your own home, I take a thoughtful and attentive approach, ensuring the environment is safe, familiar, and suited to their needs. I stick closely to your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, exercise, and any specific instructions, so they feel settled and comfortable. I never leave dogs unsupervised and am confident handling different personalities, from energetic and playful to more sensitive, nervous or relaxed dogs, always prioritising calm, positive interactions. You can trust that your dog will be cared for as if they were my own; safe, well looked after, and given plenty of attention, affection, and reassurance while placed in my care.
