About: I’m an experienced sitter with a genuine love for all animals. I got all my pets through to the tender old ages of 16 through devotion, love and responsibility. I love giving them love and I can take care of senior dogs with all kinds of health problems. I am also DBS checked and I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds you name it. I even had horses. I currently work part time and my work is flexible so they will have all the attention and love from me. We’ll go on early morning walks and afternoon walks depending on the weather and between they’ll get to play and have fun! I live in a one bedroom in a long stay hotel setting right now. There’s a bit garden in the back and a big one in front with plenty of routes to the beach. I’m also more than happy to stay at your place and look after your babies in their own environment.

“Ellie was a great help to us checking in for feeding and letting our pets out the house while we were away. She kindly came round to meet us before and see where everything was kept etc. She is clearly very experienced and confident with all aspects of animal care and I would highly recommend her. Her communication was good and she was prepared to step in with further help should our flight had been delayed by snow and bad weather. Thanks Ellie!”

About: I’ve always absolutely loved animals! I’m the one sat next to the dog at a party. I believe dogs deserve a great mentally stimulating walk every day. I’ve previously walked dogs for The Cinnamon Trust charity, and have walked dogs for acquaintances as and when needed. I’m working only part-time as a barista which is my other passion, and can easily do house visits or dog walks alongside shifts! I am super considerate of other people’s space and like to leave it as I found it. After all, I’ve been a lodger for 5 years and keep our space nice and tidy (apart from the occasional cat hair…). I won’t be hesitant about cleaning any little or big messes your pet leaves (after all, I do work in a cafe…!). I’ll keep everyone happy and comfortable in their space!

“From the moment we contacted Klaudia to look after our kitten she was accommodating to our dates and times around the Christmas holidays. We had left it last minute, so it was a huge relief, especially as it's our first pet and it was a new situation for us. Klaudia kindly came to visit before the first booking to meet Earl, and I could immediately tell she was kind hearted and cared about animals. Klaudia went above and beyond for us and we will contact her every time we are away, don't hesitate to book her to look after your furry family!”

“Was confident with Rhea from the minute I met her she was quiet but confident and I knew we'd found our cat sitter straight away. Our extremely nervous cat who hides from every new comer to the home even made an appearance, high praise indeed .I can't recommend Rhea highly enough. Thank you for job well done .”

About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember. While we are mostly been a cat family, we have had an array of pets, from fish to guinea pigs. I always seem to attract the cats however, nicknamed the cat queen in our house. Over the years, I have looked after many family friends dogs; Jack Russell’s, Springer Spaniels, Pomeranians, Labradors, Border Collies. I’ve always loved hiking and walking, and now get to do this as my job, but would love a furry friend to accompany me, so I can play pretend until I own one of my own! I’ve also recently done my first house sit on TrustedHousesitters for two lovely mother and daughter lab pair. It was one of my highlights so far of the year and would love to continue to help other families. I am a very tidy and clean person, and have no problem watering your plants or cleaning out a litter tray! I also have no problem with any energy level of dog, I’d walk for hours and play fetch for days… or just a quick wrap around the roads for cute oldies. I am currently an Outdoor Instructor working with the school holidays. I finish each day at 16:00, so able to drop in or walk to see your furry friends after work. I also have school holidays and weekends off, meaning I’m able to be flexible and spend lots of time playing and walking. I can also house sit during these holidays for whenever you and your loved ones are jetting off. ✈️ I love updating owners and sending lots of pictures of your friends! It is the service that I would like as I know how precious these pets are to us. I can easily follow any particular requirements or where your pet likes to sleep at night, to make sure they’re not unsettled by a new friend.

“Maria was great with our little puppy and he loved her too! Especially for cuddles! She did everything we asked with no problems! We will definitely use her again.”

About: I have had rescue dogs my whole life, of course this included different behaviours including fear aggression, shut down, separation anxiety to name but a few, with my time, patience and very relaxed personality I was able to help them as much as I could to realise the world isn't really a scary place. My rescues included retired greyhounds, young and old dogs, big and small. I have also pet sat many animals including cats, dogs, donkeys, fish and birds. I have worked in many areas of England and abroad. I have amazing references to show bothy written and verbal. I have also walked many dogs and have decided my LOVE for dogs runs very deep, that I have decided to start a business out of it. Guaranteed your dogs and pets will be treated like one of my own. I try to be realistic and offer 5 to 6 walks per day. This is my full time career. i am very organised, loving, trusting, compassionate, treat all animals like me own I have insurance and have completed many animal courses including pet first aid. I am extremely c;alm and caring and really know what pets need.

About: I was fortunate to grow up on a small freeholding in the countryside. My family had donkeys, sheep, chickens, dogs and cats. My special animals were Toffee the donkey, Sam the lamb and Lucy the old English sheepdog! I’m a genuine dog lover who has grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’d love the opportunity to look after yours and give them plenty of attention, affection, cuddles, and care while you’re away. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in your home. I will be happy to offer doggy day care once my secure fencing has been completed. We are so lucky in this area to be surrounded by beautiful fields and walking areas, which are perfect for safe, fun, and active walks for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or prefers a calmer, relaxed environment with lots of company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs and routine. Having grown up with dogs, I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, loved, and secure. I’m patient, reliable, and will always treat your pet as if they were my own. I know leaving your pet with someone else can feel daunting, so I aim to provide a warm, friendly, and trustworthy experience that gives both you and your pet peace of mind. I’m flexible with availability and can spend quality time with your pet to make sure they feel settled, cared for, and happy. I’d love to meet your furry friend and become someone you can rely on whenever you need help with pet care! I work part time as a registered nurse (adult) which gives me plenty of time to care for pets and be outside which I love. I will care for your pets to a very high standard and follow their regular routine set out by you. It will be my pleasure to help with your requirements if I can.

“I never felt so confident leaving my house and my cat alone for a longer time. I received a lot of pictures and updates about my cat from Emily - twice a day! On average 15 pictures a day, so I was sure my cat is happy. I highly recommend Emily to anyone who loves their cats and their house. Thank you Emily!!!!”

About: I love all animals and usually am loved by all animals :) I am friendly, resourceful, punctual, committed and easy-going. Thank you for taking time to view my profile :) I currently work one day a week, so I have plenty of time to take care and have fun with your pet, ensuring their safety and wellbeing. I live in a flat on the first floor by myself. It is a spacious two-bed, two-bath flat, where your pet would feel safe and have room to play and explore.

About: From a very young age, I’ve been the go to person for friends and family whenever their pets needed a little extra love and care. Whether it’s quick drop in visits, daily walks, or fortnight long stays, I’ve spent years building trusted bonds with dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. My passion for animals led me to complete a National Level 3 Diploma in Animal Management, giving me a strong understanding of animal behaviour, welfare and health. But beyond the qualifications, it’s the genuine joy I get from being around dogs that really sets me apart. I treat every animal like part of the family, making sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after while you’re away. Expect plenty of tail wags, playtime, cuddles and regular updates so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in great hands! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine, as it’s something I genuinely love doing rather than seeing it as a task. I structure my days to ensure I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding and giving each pet the attention they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop ins, or evening cuddles, I’m flexible and organised to meet each animals specific needs and routine. Because I prioritise reliability and routine, you can feel confident that your dog will be cared for on schedule, with lots of affection and attention built into every visit. My partner also has roughly 15 years of experience with looking after cats, dogs and reptiles, who may accompany me with some visits. She also has experience in sitting for medicated pets. Just for your peace of mind she’s loves every animal as if they are her own! When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I make it a priority to keep everything as familiar and stress free as possible. I stick closely to your fur baby’s usual routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime and any specific instructions you provide, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I take the time to build trust with each pet, giving them plenty of attention, affection and reassurance while you’re away. Whether your fur baby loves energetic walks or prefers a more relaxed pace with lots of cuddles, I adapt to their individual personality and needs. I also treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping things clean, tidy and secure at all times. You’ll receive regular updates, photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I've had the joy of caring for all kinds of animals over the years—dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, tortoises, fish, snakes, and more. My love for animals goes back as far as I can remember, and being around them truly brings me endless happiness. There's nothing I enjoy more than making sure they're safe, happy, and loved 💛 I work full-time during the week, but I finish early on Fridays and am available to care for your fur babies from 2 PM onwards. On weekends, I'm available from 12 PM onwards on both Saturday and Sunday. I’m attentive to every detail pet owners share—I know how important that is. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I expect for my own fur babies. You can count on regular photo updates, because peace of mind matters.

About: I have experience dealing with both small and large dogs, having had a little Pug x Beagle and a much larger Rhodesian Ridgeback in the past. I’m currently working full-time but have flexible hours, allowing me to work from home on Fridays and have Saturdays and Sundays free, which I would love to spend caring for your dog. I have a large fenced garden and own one British Shorthair cat who was raised alongside two dogs. I am very experienced walking dogs and have a passion for pet care.

“Where do I even begin with trying to explain how amazing Grant is!! I had to find a last minute pet sitter for our furbabies as we had just moved into the area. Grant was the first one to reply. He went the extra mile for us. He has such passion for animals, a caring heart and just a good human being. My Moon is very warey of new people, and for her to like someone new is a challenge- challenge was accepted by Grant, and let me tell you by the 2nd day Moon had found a new friend. Thank you for making our holiday less stressful, as well as making our furbabies holiday one they will never forget! I highly recommend Grant!!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was little and looked after friends dogs too. I’m a final year vet student and currently on placement at various local vet practices. I’ve had so much experience working in loads of small animal practices, plus looking after friends and family’s pets! Looking to get my doggy fix whilst I don’t have the time to have a dog during my final year of studies! Im currently on placement in vet practices during the week. However I have weekends and Friday afternoons off at the moment! I am also generally free in the evenings! The most important thing to me is making sure your pet is comfortable. I’d definitely like to meet you and your pet before pet / house sitting, to make sure that you’re happy if this is possible! Looking forward to meeting you and your dogs :)

“Our cat must have enjoyed Taegan's visits as she was very relaxed when we returned home. Taegan is a friendly, softly spoken person with her own pets. She is efficient, friendly and kept us informed. The area where the cat feeds and her litter tray were clean and tidy. Good job all round”

“Anya dropped in to feed our cats and make sure they were well while we were away. We found them well looked after and would definitely use Anya’s expert services again.”
