“Lara was great with Tryff and super helpful with a last minute booking for our wedding weekend. She brought him up to the venue for photos which was greatly appreciated. We'll happily use her again for when we're away at weekends.”


“Matteo is a wonderful dog sitter who took great care of our dog, Bruce, for a day and overnight. Right from the first meeting with him, we got an excellent first impression. He is very warm and friendly and was great with Bruce, who took to Matteo straight away. Bruce had a wonderful time and went on lots of lovely walks and came home happy and relaxed. We highly recommend Matteo and will definitely be using him again. Thank you Matteo.”


“Amber is a lovely, gentle, and responsible young sitter who clearly loves and cares for animals. She took the time to come over for an introductory visit to meet my cocker spaniel and me first, which I really appreciated. She was very responsive to my requests, committed to looking after my sensitive dog, and left my home tidy. I will be booking her again.”


“I would definitely recommend Agata. We had to leave before she arrived to dog sit for the weekend and everything was perfect; she arrived on time, and sent us plenty of great photos and videos to let us know everything was ok. I had to leave the instructions and she followed them to the letter. Very reliable, friendly and so helpful with the loose lead walking tips. Thank you Agata...Rumble had a fab weekend!”


“My pooches really enjoyed having Steph, we got lots of updates and they both seemed very relaxed when we got home. The house was lovely and clean we got back. She even didn’t mind that we were in the middle of renovations so house was a bit of a construction site.”


“Hilary is a well experienced and trustworthy animal person. She looked after our two young Sprockers, bonded with them very quickly and had a very cuddly time. Thanks Hilary 👍🐾😀”

“Lydia was punctual, full of enthusiasm and my 9 week old puppy took to her straight away. Lydia sent me photos at work after I left my puppy for the first time an emotional wreck. I would highly recommend Lydia to other dog owners, what a lovely lady.”


“Emma was amazing, she looked after my dog over the weekend, gave him loads of love and kept me abreast of how he was getting on by sending me photos. I have every confidence in Emma and her adorable dog and will definitely want to book her again. Thank you so much for the love and care you gave my little man.”


“Bethany was absolutely brilliant with our two dogs. We were kept updated with photos from their adventures and to see them both having so much fun was lovely. Both were quiet when she left so we knew they had enjoyed their time with her. The house was clean and tidy and even Duggie was given a good brush.”


About: Insured and DBS checked ✅ House sitting experience for over 15 years of family dogs, cats, horses, chickens, etc. I have been dog sitting in a professional capacity for 6 years alongside my full time, flexible job. Repeat dog owners choose me for my attentiveness to dog welfare and needs, dog training application and communication during the owner’s absence. I am reliable and honest, able to provide a wide range of services in other people’s homes or my own. I work flexibly from the office or at home. I can take longer breaks to exercise dogs and can often take more than one trip during the day. Fenced back garden with multiple levels of different turf. Space to run and play. Large kitchen, separate living and dining room so that anxious dogs can be separate from my dog if need be. Will ensure pet owner’s home is a safe environment if house sitting during the owner’s trip.

About: I’m always the first one family and friends call if there going away and need their dogs looked after, as i treat theirs like my own and take them out on regular long walks in the day. Im currently on a gap year, so i have more free time to do what i love. I like to travel a lot even to different cities in the UK, so dog sitting in different areas would be something i would like to fit in when going away. If i was dog boarding in the owners home i would be respectful of the place and keep it tidy and following any specific instructions if any.

“Emily stepped in with a few days notice to do a full home stay for us to look after our cat Chester and our puppy Wurzel. She looked after the house perfectly and kept us updated regularly regarding our fur babies. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough and we will definitely be rebooking her for all our trips from now on. Thank you Emily xx”
