“Lovely people! I left my dog with them in my home for 7 hours and I came back home to a happy and calm doggy. On such short notice they were available, couldn’t be more grateful. Will absolutely be booking them again when I need somebody! Thank you again x”


“Annabel Was great. Her feedback about the dogs was good. She was quick with any questions I had the stay and the dogs wellbeing. I would definitely recommend and use her again.”


About: I have a pup of my own who I absolutely adore, and while I’d love to walk him as much as he deserves, medical reasons have limited how often I can❤️. That’s why I turned my love for dog-walking into a way to help others. I may not be able to give my own dog endless strolls, but I’d be thrilled to make sure yours gets all the exercise, care, and attention they need 🦮. Since I work remotely, I have a flexible schedule and can offer walks and visits throughout the day to let your fur friends have a nice stretch of the legs, fun playtime with their favourite toys or have there tasty meal 🐶 I don't let dogs off the lead for safety reasons, unless they have good recall which must be shown. 🐾 When your dog is in my care, their well-being is my top priority ensuring they feel safe, secure and calm.

About: I’ve had a love for dogs my whole life. I have been a full time dog walker for nearly one year now whilst also owning three dogs of my own. As well as the dog walking, I also offer drop in visits. I just love the special bond that I watch grow between myself and my dogs that I look after. I have some dogs in my care that are reactive, some are older and one in particular is fully blind. I’m currently a full time dog walker and as previously said, I also offer drop in visits. That being said if I stayed at your home looking after your dog, I would be out for a few hours at a time but would make it a priority that your dog wouldn’t be alone for too many hours. I would only agree to a pet stay if your garden and home is safe enough for the dog. Keeping your dog happy and well whilst within my care is essential to me.

About: I've looked after multiple types of dogs but mainly German Sheperds as part of a breeding farm. Around 6 females at a time and usually a litter of puppies. It was hard work but understanding the dogs and there needs gets you through I currently do not work so I am able to sit your pets at any time or days. I usually stay in bank holidays and weekends. We all have holidays and pets that need care, which im happy to provide. I have an 2y old Miniature dachshund. I understand different personalities but all needs are the same. Making sure they have cleaned food bowls and fresh water. Cleaning trays and ensuring they have sufficient toys for fun while we're not at home.

“Alice looked after the animals and house and garden brilliantly. My neighbours said how good she was with them all and when I got back you could tell the animals were happy and well looked after. Will definitely use Alice again. Thank you Alice.”


About: For the past 10 years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs. Whether it’s going on fun walks, playtime, or cosy snuggles, I will always make sure your dog feels like part of the family. Friends and family trust me to care for their pets, and I treat every dog like my own. I know how much they mean to you, so you can count on me to give them the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I have experience working with reactive dogs and understanding the patience and care needed to make them feel safe and confident. I know how to handle these situations calmly, ensuring your pet is comfortable. Their well being is always my top priority! I’m currently working part time and I have these days free - Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday. Perfect for dog walks or for boarding My flat overlooks lakeside and there are numerous walks nearby. I have experience with dogs that have been on medication so I am able to administer any medication your dog needs.

About: I am extremely confident around all animals and absolutely love dogs. Growing up with great danes, weimeraners and dobermans and with my friends and family owning breeds ranging from jack russels, labradors, yorkshire terriers, border collies and spaniels. I feel fully confident and competent walking dogs of all breeds, energy levels and sizes, as I have been surrounded by small and large breeds all my life. Previously working for the NHS I have experience in basic life support, first aid, administering medication and I am not a squeamish person. Your dog would be in good hands. Recently I have been working doing doggy day care, walking and home boarding. I obtained my Level 3 IMDT course in canine professional day care and boarding with a pass rate of 90%! I want to focus more on dog walking, pet sitting and 1-1 boarding now. To give your pets all of my attention and love. I am an extremely hardworking, responsible, passionate, punctual, and a dedicated individual who would enjoy playing a vital role in ensuring the happiness and well-being of any animal in my care. I’m happy to be flexible around your schedule for dog walking needs during the week and I can pet sit/ board most weekends or evenings. Please just get in touch with any requests. I have a fully fenced and enclosed garden and I don’t have any children in the house. I have plenty of dog toys, bowls and I have my own crate if needed. I own a 6 month old weimaraner girl who loves all other dogs.

About: No matter the age, size or breed of dogs, all they would like is to be loved and cared for. A dog doesn’t deserve to be locked away for hours on end in solitary confinement, a pack animal needs to have company and be stimulated, I can care for your dog in my own home in a family environment. As a retired person I have the ability to provide care for dogs ensuring they are have the correct amount of exercise and stimulation throughout the day and given attention throughout the night. My garden is fully enclosed and secured with large garden gates to ensure nothing can enter or leave without the family being made aware. Security is a major issue when entrusting someone to care for your pet!

About: Although I'm currently in my 3rd generation of huskies in the family I also run my own professional dog walking business. This isn't my part time hobby although is job is a great hobby. I have been running my dog walking business for 2 years now and this is what I do and love, I see others do this to make extra money but this is the only thing I want to do with my life. What I believe I'm good at is getting reactive dogs to finally experience socialise together. I've currently taken many dogs that have been instructed to be solo walks and managed to introduce them in a group setting and now they enjoy group weeks weekly after building trust in my handling skills Please Note: Check in visits are usually 15mins, will be upto 30mins if cleaning is needed. Cat Visits must be daily if away for longer then a couple days as booking everyother day visits is not good for hygenine and best care for cats. Please book longer or an extra visit on the last day if you to minimise any smells in the house I usually start my sit in an evening and I'm there for the overnight, when I wake up and do the feed, I'll walk them before leaving to do my dog walking appointments midday. This could be for 4 hours, where my schedule lasts longer then 4 hours I will spilt up the day to ensure they get some attention and not left for too long. After the dog walking schedule is done I'll be back in the house anytime from 2pm onwards for most of the night. Your dogs will get another walk before bed with or without my dogs as I do go home and walk my own in the evening so I get to see them. If your dog is not friendly ill just walk your dog before I run hoke to walk mine and then ill return back to your house for bedtime and we repeat it all again. The last day I usually leave in the morning but I can come back for a walk midday if needed before your return home. My schedule and habits will match of your own to keep the pets as stress free as possible. I will keep you updated daily via WhatsApp.

About: I was born into a dog family. My Grandparents would breed, show and board dogs. They started with Yorkshire Terriers and then when I was born they'd moved onto Newfoundland having up to 13 at a time. I loved it growing up! My Mum then went into grooming when she was 16 and I followed in her footsteps. I would bath and dry for her straight out of school and then at 19 I did my training with the super successful Amy Manser going on to share rent with my Mum on our grooming salon. I did this for 6 years. We've also always had dogs of our own including a few rescues. I'm pretty flexible with when I can do as I'm not currently in any kind of fixed employment so just message me your needs and I'm sure we can work something out. I've cared for pets my whole life and truly love all animals. I will do for your pet as I would my own and treat them with love and patience

“It was such a relief to feel comfortable leaving Scott in my home with my dog Shadow. He got plenty of walks, lots of cuddles and I received numerous updates. As a dog sitter myself it was the first time anyone outside of my family had looked after Shadow, I was nervous but Scott was professional, approachable and obviously looks after animals… for all the right reasons. I will definitely be asking Scott to look after Shadow again in the future. Thank you Scott!”


“Thanks Marta for doing a great job sitting in with Alfie over NYE! Alfie was so calm & relaxed when we came back, despite being quite anxious with fireworks usually & Marta did a great job updating us with how they were getting on together! :)”


About: Hey! We are Georgia and Dan and I just moved to Cudworth Puppy Madeley! We have also since added to our brood with our rabbit Brodie and our rescue Spaniel Marley! We love nothing more than my fur babies so why not extend this passion by providing fellow owners with some help! With our boys we know how difficult it can be managing everyday life and their care and we are here to help you in any way we can. We treat every animal with love and respect as if they were my own. We have experience with Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, Guinea pigs, Hamsters and Fish. I don’t think their is an option on here but I am happy to drop in to look after your smaller pets whilst your away and do feeds or just give them some company 🐰 Feel free to drop us a message x At the moment Dan has the most availability but we update my calendar weekly so please just ask and we will see how we can help! Z We will provide the best care for your animal I can, providing you reassurance your furry best friend is in the best hands. We will send you updates if you wish.📸

About: While I don’t currently have my own dog, I have in the past had two dogs and I would love to again in the future. In the meantime I really want to spend more time around dogs as I absolutely love them. I’m an avid walker so I think that would go hand in hand with taking your playful pets out and about whether that’s to a local park or dog field. I’m a shift worker so tend to have a lot of evenings/nights free and I know my rota for the rest of the year so I’m able to work around that to offer the best to your pets. I’m happy to do drop ins/walking services even on my days that I work either before or after I finish and on my days off I’m available all day. I am able to care for pets in your own home by offering a safe environment where pets will be comfortable and have all their needs met. For walking I would prefer to keep pets on a leash so if this isn’t suitable for your dog please let me know.

About: I’ve had my older dog for 6 years now and a 1 year old puppy, I adore both more than anything in the world. My older one is a rescue therefore needed all the training we could give her. Neither of them live with me as I have moved house and my family wanted to keep them both at their home. I also work in a dog kennels with many different types of dogs; behavioural and breeds. I am currently working a full time job so my availability is limited for now but I want dog/cat sitting/walking to become my self employed full time job. Please contact me about any enquiries so I can tell you my availability. I will always fully respect the owners home/garden so therefore any rules will be absolutely followed. I love play time so will always find something to do with the fur baby.

Emily R.
“Emily and her partner were absolutely brilliant with our dog Doug. They were both so caring and attentive. It can be nerve-wracking leaving your dog with someone else but receiving daily pictures and videos I could see that I didn’t need to worry so much because Doug looked like he was having a great time, and seemed happy and relaxed in their home. I started to relax knowing Doug was being taken care of and entertained whilst I was away. I will definitely use Emily again in a heartbeat as the love she has for dogs really comes out when she’s around them. She’s genuinely a kind and caring girl”

Holly A.
“Holly looked after our beloved Maltese dog Manni in our home for two weeks. She gave him the best care. Feeding him his food and she took him his daily walks. She was respectful of our home and of the trust we placed in her. She administered his medication and gave him lots of attention from cuddles to tummy tickles and playing with his toys. We would not hesitate to have Holly back to look after Manni again. She is a polite, friendly lovely young lady and her love of animals is obvious.Thank you for taking such great care of Manni and for treating our home with respect and giving us peace of mind whilst we enjoyed our holiday.”
