I would highly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter. She was super considerate in my home and gave my cat all the care and attention she needed. Claire even spotted one of my plants starting to dry up and gave it some water! She was kind and a great communicator. Would book again for sure. Thanks!

About: I had a Golden Retriever who 18 years who was the love of my life. Since then I have been dog sitting / walking for family, friends and neighbours. I actually adore dogs ,more than humans! I think they bring so much joy . I am skilled with all dogs including puppies to senior. Very experienced with giving medicine / food at set times to keep a routine. Very happy to stay in homes to ensure all pets are calm and always on hand to give a cuddle I work from home and I can make my routine meet the needs of pet care. Always ensuring there is time for a walk 2 or 3 times a day, time for play and cuddles day and night. Weekends I will more then happily move my plans or encorporate pet sitting into my tasks as all my friends and family adore dogs so they will make them feel apart of the family in seconds with even more cuddles. Family and friends will pop over to see me and more important have cuddles with the pets, I love to have this enviroment in my home Ensure all fencing is safe and secure , locking gates and front doors, remove anything from the floor which could be chewed such as wires , shoes etc I am very experience with nervous and anxious dogs. If all full , one on one indepedant care is needed and I cannot have guests or men in my home, happy to support after a conversation with the pet owner and full list of needs is needed

I was nervous about leaving my cat with a sitter I didn't know for the first time, but that didn't last for long! Molly came over to meet Kylo before I left, and once looking after him I received regular updates and pictures which I appreciated! I knew he was being looked after well and would definitely recommend

I really appreciated Karolina’s help with checking in on my cat while I’m at work. It was a very last minute request and she didn’t hesitate to assist. She documented her visit with loads of pictures and clear communication which I really appreciate. I feel much more relaxed knowing my cat will be alright at home until I’m back!

About: I absolutely adore dogs and cats and have been around them and have taken care of them throughout most of my life. I have a professional background in pet care as I have worked for two different services while living in New York City (Barkly Pets and Oh To Be A Dog) where I traveled all around the city visiting and walking dogs. It was one of my favorite jobs I've ever had and it would be my pleasure to help out anyone in or around Hertford who need someone to look after this furry little friend! I'm currently working part time and will either have the day or evening fully open on weekdays to walk or visit your pet! During the weekend, I am more than happy to be fully available to have your pet stay here in my home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can more than likely adhere to your schedule and needs! I live in a house in Hertford that has a fairly small fenced in garden where your pet can use to relieve themselves or sunbathe. I also have a very cool basement where your pet can go if it's a bit too warm outside. There is also a huge and beautiful park right near my house where I can take your dog for nice long walk as well. I will make sure to have water and snacks on hand as well if they are ever hungry or thirsty as well.

About: Hi, I’m a second-year undergraduate student studying Zoo Biology and Animal Science, with a Level 3 Diploma in Animal Management. I’m passionate about animal welfare and have experience working with a wide range of species, breeds, temperaments, and behavioural needs. I’m confident caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens needing patience, routine, and basic training reinforcement, to senior pets who may require medication, gentle handling, or extra support. I understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s normal routine, so I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, exercise plans, enrichment activities, and any specific care instructions closely. Having worked with animals in both practical and educational settings, I’m comfortable with nervous, shy, reactive, or high-energy pets and always aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment for them. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness will always be my top priority I study from home and am currently working on a research project/ dissertation for ky final year at university. This means I am completely open and have no set schedule, flexibility is key. I have qualifications in animal handling and I will always put animals first. My home is safe and so is your fur baby.i have a dog of my own, a little 4yr dachshund and his temperament is very docile and he is recall trained

About: Hi! My name is Amy! 😊I’m a caring, responsible animal lover with lots of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve spent plenty of time around pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, so I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs. I also regularly join my friend, who is a full-time professional dog walker, which has given me valuable experience handling multiple dogs, practicing safe walking techniques, and understanding proper pet care in everyday situations. This experience has helped me become confident, attentive, and calm when caring for pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own—whether that means fun walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking closely to feeding and medication schedules. I know how important trust and communication are, so I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I’d love the chance to care for your furry family member! I also want to make sure you feel safe and secure, so please message me regarding any questions - I respond quick!😊 Fully flexible as this is my full time job! I’m between a few apps, and have a few regulars which keep me busy but have plenty of space! I care for pets in their own home by sticking closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I always respect the home by keeping things tidy, locking doors and windows, and making sure pets are safe before I leave. Regular updates and photos are always provided.

About: My family have always had pets! I have been brought up with cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs. Animal care is my passion! My close family have cats and dogs, so if they’re busy or at work I do tend to help them out by taking them on walks. I have one cat, and I’m currently in the process of convincing my partner to rescue a dog with me! We both love animals so this is certainly the first step! I do work full time in a school, so I get all of the holidays off the same time as the students. However on the days that work, early morning walks/check ins or evening walks/check ins would be no issue at all. And of course there’s weekends that I’m free as well. My cat is super super loving and calm, my garden is fairly big and there’s a fence all the way around so there would be no safety issues

I am surrounded by countryside, with plenty of options for dog walking right on my door step. I dont have any other pets at home and just share my cottage with my lovely partner Jamie. We have a small enclosed front garden which is perfect for quick toilet breaks and sunbathing. Happy to arrange any pre booking meetings, if you want to check out our setup.

About: While I’ve spent a lot of time caring for cats, my love for dogs is just as strong—and I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments through sitting for friends, family, and neighbours over the years. From playful puppies to older dogs who need a slower pace, I’ve cared for them all. I understand how important consistency, calm energy, and clear communication are when it comes to looking after dogs—especially when they’re adjusting to someone new. Whether it’s sticking to a regular feeding routine, administering oral medication, or making sure they get enough exercise and attention, I’m dedicated to giving every dog the personalised care they deserve and acknowledging when your pet requires nurturing, affection and play time. I’m confident with walking, feeding, basic grooming (like brushing and wiping muddy paws!), and giving your dog the companionship they need while you’re away. I also make sure to learn each dog’s individual personality and preferences—some love long walks, others prefer cuddles and quiet time—and I adjust my care accordingly. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, it’s always been a dream of mine—so caring for yours is truly meaningful to me. I’ll treat them like part of the family, ensuring they’re safe, comfortable, and most importantly, happy! I currently have a commitment which durates to just 3 hours a day, Monday to Friday (3 PM – 6 PM), which leaves me with plenty of time and energy to care for your furry family members! 🐾 I’m available and flexible every day—including weekends and bank holidays—and I’m more than happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need early morning check-ins, midday walks, evening cuddles, full-day care or even overnight stays, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s comfort and routine come first, and I’m here to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both the family and your pet. At home, I have one very spoiled Ragdoll cat who even has his own house attached to ours! While he’s a house cat, we’ve created a safe, secure outdoor space so he can explore freely. He’s treated like royalty—endless cuddles, enrichment, and affection—and I bring that same level of care and compassion to every pet I look after. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’ve always dreamed of having one. So caring for your baby will genuinely fill a little hole in my heart 💛 Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the garden, or just a comfy cuddle session, I’m ready to give your pet the same love and care I give my own. Although I understand that every pet is different, I acknowledge their individual needs and always provide the best possible care for them. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, senior, or needs medication or special attention—I adapt to their personality and routine to ensure they feel completely safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away.

About: Hello 😃 I work as an equine therapist in the Barnet area, and live in Hertford. I work on-site M-T and wfh on Fridays. I am available to take your dog for a walk first thing or in the evenings; if I have them boarding then I can take them to work with me (behaviour dependant 😜), but I’m pretty flexible so please do get in touch with your needs. I love animals and although I’ve never had my own dog, I have been looking after my friends puppy for over a year, from when he was just a few months old, and spend lots of my time with the dogs at the yard. I work at a stables, so I can have your dog with me all day if they are well behaved. I’m always happy to chat on the phone to discuss further 😃 Although I don’t have a garden, I love long walks, so your dog can have as much exercise as needed. I’m happy to allow pets on the sofa, but am also happy to keep your boundaries. I don’t allow pets on my bed.

About: I have a wide range of animals and they have always been my passion and therefore I have developed many years of experience caring for them. I have also been a qualified human nurse and midwife for the last 15 years, so I am very responsible, reliable and knowledgeable when it comes to emergency situations such as injury or illness. I have now decided on a career change to set up my own business offering doggie daycare and boarding. I am licensed by East Herts council number 25/1590/AA, fully insured, dog first aid and CPR trained and DBS checked. Please get in contact if you would like any more information. Thanks. Jane. I’m at home during the week and at weekends and currently provide daycare to 4 dogs on a regular basis, along with my own dachshund, Biscuit. I could possibly offer a pick up and drop off service in the local area. I can offer care for many different pets either at my home or yours. I have a very large fenced garden and a very friendly female dachshund called Biscuit.

About: I’ve shared my life with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and for the past few years I’ve been caring for pets in their own homes while their owners are away. I provide calm, attentive care, making sure dogs get the exercise, play, and mental stimulation they need, and cats feel secure, comfortable, and understood. I treat every animal as an individual, respecting their routines and personalities so they feel truly at ease. I’ve owned dogs for 40 plus years. They have all been rescue dogs. My favourites are Schnauzers- I’ve had three including 2 giant schnauzers. I love all dogs and animals including cats, rabbits, goats and horses. I’m retired and lots of love and attention guaranteed. I’m a retired lady with lots of free time to look after your dogs and other pets. I have transport and more than happy to take dogs for walks. I expect to be with them for the majority of the day and overnight always. I provide gentle and attentive care for senior dogs. I prefer to look after your dogs in their own home as that’s where they are usually most happy but am open to other options as required. I always clean up after them so you will never come home to a garden looking like a dog toilet!

First time I've used Rover and Claire to look after our elderly cat. Came home to a very contented cat and everything was spotless. Claire provided me with a detailed daily update, together with photos. The updates really give you peace of mind when you're away from your pet. Our return home got delayed by a day and Claire didn't hesitate in agreeing to carry on for an extra day at very short notice. I would definitely recommend Claire to anyone in need of a pet sitter ☺️
