Lydia was very organised prior to her stay with Luna. She went the extra mile by sending us regular pictures of Luna on her adventures whilst we were away. The house was extra tidy when we arrived home and Luna seemed very happy. We would definitely recommend Lydia for house/pet sitting.

This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were understandably a bit apprehensive - but as soon as we met Jo, we were completely put at ease! She did a fantastic job looking after our dog and cat, and kindly kept us updated on how their time together was going. Highly recommend!

Once again Agata took great care of our two dogs and bolshie cat. (Even though she had very little sleep thanks to Pippin’s upset tummy). Thanks Agata.

Sharon was an excellent house and dog sitter. I think Otis was very happy in her company with her calm and respectful demeanour. She kept us up to date with daily news of how our dog was doing and where she had taken him. Our house was left in perfect condition and we felt well assured that Sharon was the right fit for our household. Will use her again! Highly recommend 😀

First time Tim looked after our GSP Otto & Viszla Edie. We had a pre meet with Tim & dog walk before the booking as we have 2 strong dogs to walk. Tim is a wonderful calm & friendly person,we liked him immediately & him & the dogs bonded . I’m a bit anxious our sitters having the strength to walk my two as the are pullers. Had a trial 2 days & it went really really well. Otto was wearing a cone after a foot injury & Tim navigated walking,feeding & drinks with that. A really good dog sitter very pleased & appreciated his contact photos, updates . The dogs were happy & well looked after . Would highly recommend Tim 🤝

Rowena was excellent. We had no worries leaving the house & dogs cat & chickens in her capable hands. She coped well with our 4month old black Labrador puppy & everything was clean tidy on our return & happy animals too!

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.

It was great to be able to leave our rather difficult terrier in the capable hands of Patrick. We were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing Reggie was happy and well cared for.

About: I've always loved taking care of pets for friends, family and neighbours. Having moved to Exeter 4 years ago for university, I always said I missed my dog the most! I looked for any excuse to look after any of my team mates dogs, or head to the beach myself. Growing up we have had two rescue dogs, which proved challenging initially, but has been so rewarding to train and see them both feel comfortable in my family home. I can ensure your dog will have an enjoyable, long walk and explore somewhere new, and be loved as if it's my own! I'm currently a professional rugby player for Exeter Chiefs Women, training 3 days a week, with matches on weekends. I am looking for some part time opportunities for day care and dog walking around the training schedule and can make this work around you! I have a fenced outdoor space and a spacious living room; I am close to either Dawlish, Exmouth or the Exeter Quay so will ensure your pet has a decent walk throughout the day

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. I’m skilled at reading dog body language. Im currently on a gap year, so i have more free time to do what i love. I love dogs so i thought offering dog boarding/walking would be a great idea to fit into my schedule when i can. 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.

About: Hello, We are Hannah and Sam and we've been full time global petsitters for over 3 years, from house cats in Dubai to Beagles in India. Now we are back in Exeter and want to continue our love for petsitting. We’ve been fortunate to receive many lovely reviews from pet owners who appreciate our attentive care, regular updates, and the bond we build with their pets which we are happy to share upon request! There are two of us on the profile, so your pet gets double the attention, double the love and double the care! It also means should an unforeseen event occur where one of us can't make it, you can rest easy knowing the other person can still manage the booking. Sam and I both grew up with dogs and have a deep understanding of what it takes to keep them comfortable and content. Whether it’s playing games, engaging in fun enrichment activities, or taking them on exciting walks, we treat every dog as if they are our own by making sure they feel loved, safe, and entertained while you're away! We are both local to Exeter so know of all the safe and fun walks. A dog’s routine is incredibly important to us, we find that sticking to their usual schedule keeps them happiest. Whether it's mealtime, walk times, or bedtime, we work around their routine to ensure they feel secure and comfortable. As I am self employed our schedule can align to theirs. Also, if house sitting they would have company and lots of attention throughout the day. We believe that communication is key, especially when it comes to your pet’s well-being. If we notice any changes in their behaviour or something seems off, we’ll keep you informed every step of the way, ensuring you always know how they’re doing. We have experience administering medication, including pills and topical treatments, and have cared for senior dogs, including those with hearing impairments. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a little patience, or simply their usual routine, we’re committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in our care.

About: Having grown up surrounded by dogs and cats, and having rescued many puppies whilst living abroad too, I have a broad experience in pet care from the very youngest to those in their later years. I know just how important it is to find someone reliable and friendly to look after your companions, and I'm committed to creating a safe, loving environment where your pet feels like part of my family. Whether it's a walk, playtime, or just rest in front of the fire, you can trust me to provide personalised care and peace of mind - along with plenty of fun updates whilst they are away from you! After 24 years as an Army Officer, I now work part-time and highly flexibly from home. I can also easily accommodate house-sitting opportunities. If your pet needs someone around during the day, I can be there whether it's for playtime, walks, or simply keeping them company - all I need is Wi-Fi! Whether at my home or yours, when it comes to caring for your pet, their safety and well-being are my top priority. I also understand the importance of sticking to routines that keep them calm and happy. I always take extra care to create a safe and nurturing atmosphere so they can feel relaxed and loved in your absence.

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for a wide range of pets, including dogs, cats, and small mammals. I believe that each animal has individual care requirements and I use my job experience as a vet to accommodate your pets needs whether they be behavioural, medical or dietary. Whether sitting or boarding, I prioritise creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where pets feel safe, happy, and loved using only positive reinforcement techniques. I understand how important knowing where your pet is and what they’re doing is and I will always keep you informed and updated throughout your pets stay with me, using your preference of messages, photos or phone calls. If you would like to discuss any individual pet needs before booking a service, please reach out! I currently work full time and mainly have pet care availability in the evenings and on the weekends. Please check my availability or message me for more information. In my own home, I ensure that pets have ample space to roam, quiet spots for rest, and plenty of toys and enrichment activities to keep them engaged. I have a friendly collie who loves making new friends and showing them around the house. I can provide scheduled feeding and toilet breaks as well as tailoring walks to your dog’s needs. If your dog loves affection, I can provide a warm and loving atmosphere making them feel right at home. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their familiar routines and surroundings to minimise stress. I will adhere closely to any instructions given regarding feeding, medication, and exercise, whilst also providing companionship. Whether in my home or yours, I strive to provide the highest level of care, ensuring peace of mind for you and a positive experience for your pet.
