“Alex has been really good with Gizmo (a puppy)—he took to her straight away. She’s very personable and was friendly and easy to talk to from the first meeting. She’s been really flexible, reliable, and quick to respond, even with me changing dates. I’ve felt completely comfortable leaving him with her. Would definitely recommend 👍”

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.

“Sharon, as always, professional, friendly and was great with the kitties, always providing great updates and pictures to let me know they are well. They are getting to know her now and love being fussed. I would recommend her too anyone. Always my first pick when I go away. Sarah”

“Angel was very friendly, attentive to our cats, and updated us with pictures of what they’ve been up to while we were away. Would recommend booking with her. ”

“Hilary did a fantastic job looking after our cat. Regular photos and updates. Cat was happy and in a good mood when we returned. Would love to book again in future. Thank you!”

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.

About: Hi, I've been a mum to furbabies for over 25 years and would like to offer the same mum experience to your pets while you're away from home. My Boston Terrier Griff, Frenchie Margot, and cats Riley & Rosa would stay at home with family while I was with yours. Having said that, Griff and Margot are always up for playdates if it were suitable to you I can be fully at home from Fri evening to Tuesday early morning. I may be able to book additional days as annual leave with 6 weeks or more notice I will ensure your pets have the same routine and service that they have with you so that they won't be disrupted or unsettled while you're away from home

About: We have owned dogs for over 30 years and have just lost our beloved Collie in June and look forward to welcoming dogs into our home again. As I'm retired, I have plenty of time on my hands and am happy to walk dogs, house sit or welcome them into our home. We have a small fenced garden, mainly made up of lawn and terrace. It's totally secure and safe for pets and we have no other pets of our own.

This will allow to meet there needs whether this lots of cuddles and love or if they prefer their space or maybe playing.

“Molly is the first time Hector has had a sitter who’s not a friend. I’m delighted with her care for him. He’s calm and looking well fed and combed! Molly followed the instructions I left and what was so helpful were her messages and photos to assure me 20 year old Hector was just doing fine. Molly is a natural communicator and always replies to any messages. I’m very grateful and would recommend Molly to anyone looking for a kind, thoughtful and well organised sitter. Thank you Molly 🐈”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and taken care of many both personally and professionally as I have worked in a veterinary practice so have knowledge of common problems and symptoms.I have been walking dogs as a part time job since I was 11 so understand the different needs for each animal. I am trained in pet first aid and regular first aid as well as doing training in animal management and behaviour. I am looking to spend more of my time around animals and to help out. I know how hard it can be to find someone you are comfortable leaving with your animals. I myself have a reactive dog that has made it hard to find pet sitters. I am currently available throughout the week so am happy to accommodate. I will update my calendar as often as possible but if there is a time or day that you need feel feee to ask and I will always try and arrange somethibf. I have a fenced garden and am happy to follow any specific requirements to meet your pets needs. I am flexible with my routine on weekends and am happy to help with any training you need to keep a consistent training plan.

About: I’ve always been a massive dog lover and have always taken care of any dogs that I was given the chance to. My family and family friends have trusted me to walk and feed their lovely pets, aging from puppies to 13 year old doggies. I also am willing to enforce good lead and walking manner in order to keep up your pup’s training. I am unemployed at this point in time. I am pretty much free the majority of the week. I will be working by a first come, first served basis. I have a spacious fenced garden. For walks, I would ask beforehand about your pups temperament(s) so that I will be prepared if need be. I am happy to walk reactive dogs, as long as a muzzle is provided (for precautions). I would not let your pup off their lead, unless I personally can trust them with their recall. I’d let your fur baby explore some new spots, meet some new friends, and let all their energy out. If you have any queries, please contact me for any more details!

About: I have over 20 years of experience with caring for and fostering all different breeds of dogs aswell as working in a dog groomers and working at a cattery, where I looked after tiny newborn kittens to elderly or disabled cats. Ever since I was born I've been around all types of animals (horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, and lizards to name a few) and I love nothing more than spending time with them. I start my new job down in Devon in May so I have plenty of availability up until that time. I am happy to do pet visits, walks or sitting jobs any time of the day and any day of the week! I will always provide a fresh supply of water, give your pets so much love and attention or their own space if they want. I am happy giving pets medication orally if they require as I am experienced with doing this. I am also more than happy to find a nice park to take your dog for a walk if you would like :)

About: I have a good level of experience when it comes to caring for our furry friends! My little best friend is a 4 year old Chihuhua whom we rehomed back in 2020. I have hands on experience with reactive dogs, allowing them to have a fun fulfilled walk/play! I work full time but shift work. I typically work 3 x 13 hour days, therefore lots of spare time to meet all your lovely doggies! Although I am unable to offer pets in my own home at the moment, I am more than capable of looking after pets in your own home.

“Highly recommend Erica. Her communication was brilliant, on time, reliable. Our boys seemed very happy! Thank you so much!”

About: Hello! My name is Emily and I am 21. I have grown up with a terrier-spaniel cross breed since I was 7 and I have knowledge in puppy care and high senior care because of this! Comforting my dog in her last days of life has been an honour, and I wish to comfort any age of animal for however long I can because I know how deeply important it is for that pet to feel positivity, fun and love. I have a full clean UK driving license and a provisional moped license. Currently volunteering at the Cats Protection League in Exeter. Furthermore; I have fostered with Feline Network (July24-January25). My puppy care consists of keeping them busy, playing, walking, letting them rest, feeding them and to keep them safely socialised. I am also comfortable with cleaning up messes! My senior care for dogs consist of handling the animal comfortably, playing when they aren't too tired to, feeding them, helping with medication feeding and giving them some patient walks or garden time. I also have general other pet care considering hamsters, guinie pigs, rabbits, chickens, fish and others. I have many days and nights free to pet sit and socialise. I am currently working close to full time with split shifts but with your dates and timings I could alternatively easily help out:) I am able to crate your dog if need be. Give them consistent walks, toilet breaks and play time whilst dog sitting. I would easily keep a close eye on pets to always check in on them especially if they have any health issues, but also in social interactions to keep them and others safe. I would also keep all dogs on a lead for walks unless told or agreed with otherwise.

About: I have a 2 yr old female Rhodesian Ridgeback who loves running and training for Ironman. I also love my plants so always outside when ever I can be. I currently work half contract at a fire station so have plenty of time to dog walk/run. Pop in for lunch time walks or look after dogs on more of a weekly/weekend style. I have a long grass back garden and Olive my ridgeback to keep other dogs happy. Your dog would be downstairs in my house. When we walk we would go down by the river to budleigh.
