House Sitting Dover

“Yu was fantastic. Professional and competent, can't ask for more. She sent us lot of updates and photos and when we came back our dog was extremely happy and relaxed. And even though we have a very excitable young dog, she didn't have any trouble taking proper care of him. Couldn't recommend enough!”

About: Hi there, I grew up surrounded by horses cats dogs fish and hamsters and love them all. I’m a regular cat sitter currently and resting between acting jobs so ready to go. I work part time as a supporting artist in films so pet care work fits in perfectly with that. I’m also used to getting up very early so any need for dawn feeds/ walkies etc won’t be a problem. I always follow care instructions to the letter, especially locking up a front door etc.. I double and triple check to make sure. That might be a bit OCD but better safe than sorry.

About: I have had dogs for most of my life from big to small and know that they are an important part of your family. Having recently lost our 2 border terriers I find myself missing the pleasures of having a dog around the house. I would love to care for your dog during the day when you are unable to do so. I am now retired and have the time to give your dog the attention it needs, from long walks, cuddles and chill time. You can be rest assured that you beloved pet will be looked after. Being retired means that I can look after your dog five days a week and I am available from early in the morning until late in the evening. I live a large town house with a back garden that the dogs can use, they will have the lounge, utility room and garden at their disposal. I also live 2 minutes away from Connaught Park where I will take them for walks as well as other nearby walks.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 20 years, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a child , our house was filled with dogs (Jack Russells, Border Collie and Labradors, not all at the same time), horses, budgies, tortoises and even goldfish, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I’m calm, patient and confident with all kinds of pets, and I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe, loved and relaxed when they’re away from their owners. Whether your doggie requires companionship, regular walks or simply keeping to their routine, I will give every dog the same care and attention that I’d want for my own. I’m retired and at home all day, so your dog will have company, attention and a calm, settled environment. My home is quiet and relaxed, which makes it especially suitable for nervous dogs, older dogs or those who simply enjoy a slower pace. There are countryside walks on my doorstep and the beach isn't too far away if you don't mind me taking your dog there. I live on a quiet road with a small, secure fenced garden where dogs can relax safely. Countryside walks are right on my doorstep, giving every dog plenty of fresh air, gentle adventure and a peaceful change of scenery. 🐾 My Experience Animals have been part of my life from the very beginning. I grew up in a home full of pets — dogs, budgies, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, you name it, we had it. Later, when I married, we had a succession of Dobermans who were very much part of the family. Our last one sadly passed away two years ago, and caring for other people’s dogs now brings me a lot of joy and purpose. Your dog will be treated with the same love, patience and respect I’ve always given my own.

About: I have over a year’s experience caring for dogs and have built a wonderful relationship with a regular client who trusts me to care for their dog on an ongoing basis. Alongside this, I regularly look after my own dog, as well as my sister’s and grandma’s dogs whenever they’re away, so I’m confident caring for dogs with different personalities and routines. I understand that every dog deserves love, attention and companionship. I couldn’t imagine a dog being left feeling lonely, so I always make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own. I’m reliable, patient and caring, and I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is in safe and loving hands. Pet sitting is currently my full-time focus, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. I do occasionally have one-day photoshoots or events, but I always keep my diary up to date and never accept bookings that would clash. When you book with me in advance, you can be confident that your dog will receive my full attention, plenty of exercise, love and companionship throughout their stay. I’ll always communicate clearly with you and make sure your dog’s routine comes first. Your dog’s safety, happiness and wellbeing will always be my priority. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they stick to their usual routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime and any medication they may need. I’ll provide plenty of love, attention and companionship, ensuring they never feel lonely or unsettled. In my home, dogs have access to a large, secure fenced garden with both grass and patio areas to play and explore safely. I also have a friendly, well-socialised Cocker Spaniel who loves the company of other dogs, as well as a large crate and comfortable bed if your dog prefers their own space. I have dedicated fridge space for storing fresh food or any special dietary requirements, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your dog is happy, safe and receiving the best possible care.

“Emma was a wonderful dog sitter. We booked for for a 5 night stay in our home while we were on holiday, caring for our 2 rescue French Bulldogs. After doing a couple of intro sessions, we had every confidence in her, and we weren't wrong. The dogs were unsettled by the change, only 2 months after we adopted them. We had builders in. One of the dogs has a medication regime and both dogs have personal care regimes to be followed. The dogs challenged Emma with chewing things in the first couple of days, and she took absolutely everything in her stride. She sent us photos, looked after the house, left it clean and tidy and had even stripped her bed when we got home! We can see for ourselves how well the dogs look, so we know Emma has really looked after them with their cleaning and medication. We'd have Emma in the home again without hesitation, and recommend her highly to others.”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for pets, primarily dogs, cats, birds and reptiles. I am passionate about providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care! My experience includes feeding, walking, bathing, administering basic medications, cleaning living areas, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I have cared for pets of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including energetic puppies, senior dogs, and shy or anxious animals. Through these experiences, I have learned how to read animal behavior, respond calmly in stressful situations, and adjust care routines based on each pet’s specific needs. In addition to daily care, I understand the importance of maintaining consistent schedules, monitoring health changes, and communicating clearly with pet owners. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and the well-being of every animal in my care. Whether it’s ensuring proper portion sizes at feeding time or providing engaging exercise during walks, I approach every responsibility with patience and dedication. Pet care has strengthened my sense of responsibility, time management, and attention to detail. Most importantly, it has reinforced my belief that animals deserve kindness, respect, and dependable care at all times❤️ I have a very flexible schedule so please feel free to book on any day of the week and I will do my best to fit your fury friend in for walks, day care or over night stays! When caring for a pet in an owner’s home, my first priority is maintaining a safe, calm, and familiar environment. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own space, so I make every effort to follow the owner’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions. Consistency helps reduce stress and keeps the pet feeling secure. I always ensure doors, gates, and windows are securely closed to prevent escapes, and I double-check locks before leaving the home. I keep harmful items such as cleaning products, small objects, or unsafe foods out of reach. During walks or outdoor time, I stay alert to surroundings and use secure leashes or harnesses as instructed. Cleanliness is also very important. I regularly clean food and water bowls, refresh water daily, and keep litter boxes or living areas tidy. This helps prevent illness and keeps the home environment healthy for the pet. I pay close attention to the pet’s behavior, appetite, and energy levels to quickly notice any changes that could signal stress or health concerns. If I observe anything unusual, I communicate promptly with the owner. Above all, I treat the owner’s home with respect and their pet with patience, kindness, and responsibility. My goal is to make the pet feel comfortable and cared for while giving the owner peace of mind knowing their home and companion are in safe, trustworthy hands.

“Charlotte is very good at communicating and looked after our kittens well, especially as one of them is very nervous. Would absolutely recommend her 🙂”

About: Friendly and reliable dog lover with 7 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I’m confident with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace, and I always make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m available for weekday evenings and all day on weekends, making me ideal for after-work walks, evening check-ins, weekend dog sitting, or longer daytime walks. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority. When caring for dogs in their own home, I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain their normal routine, ensure doors and gates are secure, and provide plenty of supervision, attention, and reassurance. During walks, I use secure leads and harnesses as requested, stay aware of the surrounding environment, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure dogs are kept safe around roads, other animals, and unfamiliar areas. I understand that every dog has different needs and confidence levels, and I always adapt my care to suit them.

About: I have been brought up around dogs and more recently my partner and I volunteered at a dog shelter with over 100 dogs, we spent a month learning dog behaviour, cleaning, feeding and walking gentle giants. We are both calm natured and believe love and kindness bring out the best in dogs. We have been around rescue dogs that have nervous tendencies and they learnt to trust us over the time we were volunteering. We are avid walkers so we are happy with energetic dogs, also love cuddles for the lazier ones. I am currently working from home freelance so I have a lot of time and can work from anywhere. We are both very flexible and can happily stay out. I have a lot of experience with dogs big and small, I will be able to walk, feed and give your pets the attention and love they need and want. My weekly routine is very flexible due to the nature of my work and working from home. I am able to choose my hours of work I welcome pets into my home as if they were my own, I have a small garden they can run around in with high walls so owners will be confident that their pets will be safe in my home and garden I have a ground floor flat with it’s own entrance and private garden.
