“Highly recommend Mia for looking after your dog, I got regular updates with photos and a happy dog when I got back, our home had also been looked after and was just as we left it. Will definitely use Mia again”

“Lucy was very thoughtful in her interactions and sent frequent updates. Alfie seemed to love her from the first moment they met, and she was great at keeping him settled and calm when we left, which can sometimes be difficult for him. Excellent sitter and a lovely person.”

“Danielle was absolutely amazing looking after our Frenchie, Buster, while we had to rush our other Frenchie, Remi to the emergency hospital. It was a very stressful time for us, but knowing Buster was in such caring hands gave us real peace of mind. She was incredibly friendly, kind, and patient, making sure Buster felt calm, comfortable, and relaxed throughout her stay. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and treated him like one of her own. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter during such a difficult situation. Many thanks Danielle 🐾 🐾”

“Caramel was lovingly looked after by Jasmine and the two of them got on so well. I know this because Caramel was calm and happy when I got back to the house. Jasmine followed all the instructions for administering her meds and meals and the all important walks 3 times a day. I would happily recommend Jasmine as someone trustworthy & who just loves animals.”

About: • I'm an experienced live-in dog and house sitter who offers calm, consistent care, particularly for nervous, sensitive or rescue dogs who need patience and reassurance while their owners are away. • I've gained my experience through many successful house and pet sits, both independently and through TrustedHousesitters (where owners have consistently left excellent reviews). • Some dogs make friends straight away. Others need a little more time. I enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual and helping them feel safe, comfortable and settled while you're away. • I work online (part-time), so I can fit around your dog's routine and spend much of the day at home. This is ideal for dogs who are used to having company or who need a little longer to settle. • I love being outdoors and usually walk twice a day myself. Whether your dog enjoys long adventures or prefers a gentle sniff around the neighbourhood, I'm happy to adapt to whatever suits them best. • I always stick as closely as possible to your dog's normal routine, whether that's favourite walking routes, regular mealtimes or simply having a cuddle on the sofa. • I'm based in Colchester and regularly travel throughout London and the South East, with availability across the UK for longer bookings. • I've completed Canine First Aid training and I'm continuing to learn more about canine behaviour and body language because I genuinely enjoy understanding what makes each dog tick. • One of the reasons I started house and pet sitting is that my own rescue dog had such a lasting impact on me. She taught me the value of patience and consistency. After she died, I wasn't ready for another dog of my own, and looking after other people's dogs became a way to stay connected to the animals I love. • I know it's hard leaving your dog with someone new. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your trip, and I'll always ask how often you'd like to hear from me. * I work online, so I can fit around your dog's routine and spend much of the day at home with them. * Morning walks, longer afternoon adventures or evening strolls, I can easily adapt to whatever routine your dog is used to. * I try to keep life as familiar as possible while you're away, so I do my best to follow your dog's usual routine for walks, meals, playtime and downtime. * I offer live-in dog and house sitting for overnight stays, weekends, holidays and longer bookings throughout the year. * Before a sit, I like to arrange a quick video call so we can chat through your dog's routine and make sure you feel completely comfortable before you head away. * Before each sit, I take the time to understand your dog's usual routine, from walks and mealtimes to favourite sleeping spots and the little things that help them feel settled. * I work online part-time, so I'm able to spend much of the day at home, providing companionship and helping your dog settle into their usual routine. * I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages while you're away. I'll also ask how often you'd like to hear from me, so you can choose the level of contact that feels right for you. * I genuinely enjoy looking after people's homes and take pride in treating every property with the same care and respect I would my own. I see myself as a temporary guardian of your home as well as your dog, and I always leave everything exactly as I found it.

“We’re so glad we found Cassie! We felt so at ease knowing our cat was being looked after by her. She was great at giving us updates and we came home from our holiday to a very happy and loved little cat.”

“Gary was absolutely brilliant looking after our Frenchies, Remi and Buster. It’s clear that he genuinely loves animals and treats them with great care, kindness, and attention. He took excellent care of them, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and followed everything we requested perfectly. Gary is a very reliable, friendly, and caring person a true animal lover. We felt completely at ease knowing our boy and girl were in such good hands. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter and we will definitely use him again in the future. THANK YOU GARY 🐾 🐾”

“I recently had the pleasure of having Hannah look after my dog, Bella, while I was on holiday, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, Hannah was incredibly attentive, ensuring I felt comfortable and safe leaving Bella in her care. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which truly put my mind at ease. It was clear that Bella was happy and well-cared for, and I could tell she enjoyed her time with Hannah. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! I'm pleased we now have someone who Bella can be with when we are away. Thanks a million Hannah :-)”

“Emma house sat for our GSD puppy while we were away for a few days. She was an excellent sitter and I can thoroughly recommend her. She’s clearly great with dogs and kept our GSD in his training schedule while we were away. She sent pictures every day so we could keep up with what what was going on back home. Great sitter!”

“Lily was very thorough in her preparation to look after my dog. I got timely updates throughout the day of my dog which was lovely and she looked very happy with lily. Would book again definitely.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Tamara. From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals. She followed all my dog’s routines, gave them so much attention, and sent regular updates that made me feel completely reassured. I returned to a clean home and very happy dogs. Tamara goes above and beyond, she’s truly exceptional! Will definitely be recommending Tamara to our friends and booking with her again! Thank you Tamara.”

“Skye did an overnight cat sit with our cat Lilith for one night. Skye was communicative, sent photo updates and followed all instructions very well. I would recommend Skye for catsitting and would definitely rebook again. Thank you Skye!”

“Izzy has been great with our new puppy who absolutely loves her and gets so excited when she walks through the door. She has remembered and taken into account every little detail we have told her about our puppy and kept that in mind whilst looking after him. I know he has such a great time every time she is here.”

About: I’ve had my own dog for five wonderful years, and he truly opened my heart to all living creatures. We trained him ourselves from a puppy, and he has amazing recall and lovely manners. That experience taught me patience, consistency, and how important trust is with dogs. I regularly look after friends’ dogs of all sizes, small, medium, and large and I’m confident handling different temperaments and energy levels. I provide daily walks once or twice a day, sometimes including a run for more active dogs, and longer walks at the weekend for extra adventure and stimulation. Your dog would be cared for as if they were my own, with attention, affection, and plenty of exercise. 🐾 As I work from home, dogs in my care are rarely left alone and always have company throughout the day. I tailor walks to each dog’s needs, offering one or two walks daily depending on their routine and energy levels. There are always plenty of cuddles, attention and gentle supervision.. 🐾 Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. In my home, I provide a calm, secure and loving environment where dogs are treated as part of the family. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences and any special requirements so they feel settled and comfortable. I maintain consistent boundaries, supervise interactions, and ensure doors and outdoor spaces are secure at all times. Walks are carried out safely, with close attention to surroundings and other dogs. I only allow off-lead time where recall is reliable and agreed with the owner.🐾

“Lauren is a lovely lady... Bonnie felt comfortable in her presence immediately & soon settled down for cuddles... Lauren arrived at the agreed time & was very understanding of Bonnie's needs...We were updated with photos in a WhatsApp group throughout the day & Bonnie looked very happy... Would not hesitate to book Lauren again!!”
