About: 🐾 Fully Licensed • Fully Insured • DBS Checked • Full-Time Pet Care Professional 🐾 Hi, I’m Ryan, and welcome to Ry’s Pet Care! I’m a fully licensed home boarder, fully insured, and work full-time in pet care, allowing me to dedicate my time and attention to caring for dogs every single day. My goal is simple—to provide a safe, loving, home-from-home environment where your dog will be treated as part of the family. Having grown up with dogs and other pets, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Nothing makes me happier than building trusting relationships with dogs and giving owners complete peace of mind while they’re away. My beautiful Beagle, Ivy, was my world. Caring for her throughout her life, particularly during her later years when she required regular medication due to seizures and a brain tumour, taught me patience, compassion and the importance of tailoring care to each individual dog. She sadly passed away in October 2024, but caring for other people’s pets has become a wonderful way of honouring her memory. As I don’t currently have any pets of my own, every boarded dog, pet I sit for, or walked dog, receives my full attention without needing to compete for space or affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new smells, playing in the garden, relaxing on the sofa or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I’ll adapt my care to suit their individual personality and needs. I’m licensed to provide home boarding and have developed comprehensive welfare, safety and infection control procedures to ensure every dog enjoys a safe and comfortable stay. I also hold Pet First Aid certification, maintain detailed care records, and always prioritise each dog’s physical and emotional wellbeing. Communication is incredibly important to me. During your dog’s stay, or my sit, you’ll receive regular updates, together with plenty of photos and videos, so you can see exactly how they’re getting on and enjoy following their little holiday while you’re away. Whether your dog needs medication, has specific routines, dietary requirements or simply enjoys lots of cuddles and company, I’m always happy to accommodate their individual needs wherever possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I never take that responsibility for granted. My aim is for every dog to leave happy, relaxed and excited to return, while every owner feels confident they’ve found someone who genuinely cares. If you’d like to arrange a Meet & Greet or have any questions at all, I’d love to hear from you. I manage my own time and am a full time pet care professional so I have the flexibility to meet your pet's usual walk schedules, feeding time and administering of medication (if needed). When staying in your home, I will bring my own food and toiletries, I can also bring my own bedding if required, and even a single or double blow-up bed. I will only require water and electricity and will return the home to you as you left it for me. When boarding, your pets become part of our family, my aim is to make them feel as comfortable as they would in their own home. Your pet is my top priority, so please make me aware of their routines, preferences and training techniques/keywords and I will ensure these are kept to. I know how it feels to leave your pet(s) when you are away, constantly thinking about how they are and what they are getting up to! So, rest assured, I will take plenty of photos and keep you updated as much as you would like. I understand it is a big decision to leave your pet in a new environment, or to invite someone into your home and look after your pet and belongings! Therefore, I always recommend a meet-and-greet (at no extra charge), and am available to message or call with any questions to help build a rapport.
“Frankie loved his stay with Christine & Luke & Hugo! I’m sure Hugo & Frankie will be friends for life. Christine kept me happy by sending lots of videos & picture updates, I felt at ease & knew Frankie was being loved & looked after. Thank you so much for looking after my fur baby, I would highly recommend this wonderful family & home 🥰🐾”
“Sarah was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. She accomodated Kora last minute due to being let down elsewhere. Kora is still very nervous of people after being rescued a few years ago but obviously felt completely at ease with Sarah and appears to have had a great time and made herself at home! Communication excellent, updates through the stay and very accomodating regarding drop off and collection. Cannot fault at all, highly recommend”
“We really highly recommend Kane. First time for our 3 year old Whippet to be away from us and all the worry was for nothing. She was there with my older dog and was home from home for them. Great up dates and pictures. Both dogs well cared for and happy. Thank you so much and will definitely use again”
“Maggie and John are absolutely fantastic caring and easy to communicate with. We had no worries about our Dobby staying with them at all as we knew he would be taken good care of. We got regular updates how is Dobby doing with pictures of Dobby and he looked very happy. 💖🤗”
“Always confident of the care and love my dog will receive when staying with Brian and Erika. They are great at keeping you updated with pics and videos. Would not hesitate to recommend and will always be happy to leave my fur kids in their care.”
“Extremely happy with booking and would highly recommend Aneta. Aneta looked after my cockapoo for an overnight stay. He's normally a very nervous and clingy dog but from the get go Aneta was extremely professional and planned Berties stay in advance to ensure that he was made as comfortable and happy as possible. She took him on plenty of walks and showed him extensive attention and affection throughout his stay. Making sure he felt at home. I loved getting regular updates and photos showing how he was getting on. Bertie left happy and stress free. What more could you ask for? Very happy, thank you!”
“Veronika and her family were lovely and made Teddy feel very welcome. We were updated daily with lots of photos while we were away. I dont think Teddy wanted to come home.”
“It's been the 1st time of ever using this kind of service Dainora has been amazing, I was able to notice that Sasha had an amazing time with them, she never showed any kind of anxiety. I'm definitely be using her services again and will highly recommend it to anyone who needs it”
“Willow loved her stay with Bradley & didn’t seem to want to come home! Bradley was very attentive & sent numerous updates throughout the duration of the stay. Willow will definitely be back again soon :)”
“Really happy to have found Brooke. Beatrix seemed to have had a lovely time. Received lots of updates and videos of her enjoying herself. Would be happy to use Brooke’s service again and highly likely to at some point in the future.”
“It was so lovely of Janine to give me her time to meet her in advance of booking. Maisie has clearly had a lovely mini break - thanks for all the photos. A beautiful, secure location & such a friendly host. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
About: I have a dog of my own and children, so I understand how important it is to find someone caring, reliable and trustworthy to look after your pet. I’m patient, responsible and treat every dog as if they were my own. 🐶❤️ I work from home, so I’m around for most of the day and can give your pet plenty of attention and company. I’m also available at weekends and can be flexible with walks, feeding and playtime to fit your pet’s usual routine. 🐶 I have a secure, fenced garden and a friendly dog of my own, so your dog will have company and a safe space to enjoy. I have children, so I’m used to a busy family environment and always make sure pets are comfortable, supervised and well cared for. I’m happy to follow their usual routine and any special instructions. 🐶❤️
About: I have always had a strong love for animals, especially dogs, as I grew up surrounded by lots of different pets. Being around animals from a young age has helped me develop a natural understanding of how to care for them, be patient with them, and make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable. My experience as a dog sitter is something I really enjoy because I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and needs. I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, fresh air and companionship while their owners are away. One of my favourite parts of dog sitting is taking dogs out for walks. I enjoy giving them the opportunity to explore, exercise and have fun, while also benefiting from being outdoors myself. Going for regular walks with a dog helps me stay active and supports my own health and wellbeing, making it something that I find both enjoyable and rewarding. Overall, looking after dogs is something I am passionate about. Growing up with pets, combined with my experience caring for animals, has taught me to be responsible, caring and attentive. I would always treat someone else's dog with the same care and respect that I would give to my own pets. Working from home allows me to provide dogs with the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to take regular breaks to feed them, let them outside, give them attention and take them out for walks. Being at home also means dogs are not left alone for long periods of time, which can help them feel more comfortable and settled. I can easily fit walks and playtime around my working schedule while still making sure my work commitments are met. I really enjoy being around dogs while I work, and I believe my home-based routine is ideal for dog sitting. It allows me to give each dog plenty of care and attention while providing a safe, calm and loving environment for them. Although my garden is on the smaller side, it is fully fenced and provides a safe and secure space for dogs to have regular toilet breaks and get some fresh air throughout the day. I understand that the garden is not intended to replace proper walks and exercise, but it is a convenient and secure space for quick toilet breaks whenever needed. I also live next to a beautiful bank and walking area, which is perfect for giving dogs plenty of exercise and outdoor stimulation. I regularly take my family’s dog there for walks and really enjoy spending time outdoors with him. The area provides a lovely environment for dogs to explore, get some exercise and enjoy their surroundings. Having both a secure garden and such a beautiful walking area nearby means I can provide dogs with regular toilet breaks, exercise and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
“Shaun and Jackie were very accommodating for my dog Olives 1st visit. Olive was made to feel at ease and appears to have settled in as part of their family. We felt confident and were provided with updates over her visit. Olive will return to Shaun and Jackie’s on a regular basis and we are confident she is well looked after and safe. If people are looking for a great dog sitter, we would highly recommend Shaun and Jackie.”
“Sandra went above and beyond when our train was delayed meaning we would struggle to pick up the dogs on time and she drove the 30 mins each way to drop them off at my daughter’s house. Both dogs seemed to have enjoyed their time with Sandra. Such a shame she is over an hour away from my home.”
“This was our first time using a dog sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the start, communication was great, and we got daily updates with pictures and videos of him playing with the other dogs — that put us at ease knowing he was enjoying himself. He came home happy, tired, and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Angeliki looking after my dog, Darcy . She's a lively bouncy little dog with a great personality and loves lots of attention. Angeliki was brilliant with her from the start, it was clear Darcy received plenty of attention, care and playtime, which suits her perfectly, I also really appreciate the updates, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away . When Darcy was collected , she was happy , relaxed and clearly had a wonderful time, it's such a relief knowing she'd been so well looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to book again and would highly recommended Angeliki to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog boarder.”
“Rosie has had such a fun day!!!! Lovely walks and lots of fuss, she's certainly felt relaxed and at home. Jonathan and his wife looked after Rosie really well for the day. Thankyou 😊”

“Ryan was an absolutely amazing choice, and we couldn’t be happier with his care. From the very beginning, it felt like the best decision we could have made. He took wonderful care of our two cats and our gecko — all of them are happy, healthy, and clearly well looked after. Ryan fulfilled all of our expectations and even went above and beyond. Every day he kept us updated about the situation at home, sent us photos, and made sure our pets received attention, care, and love. Thanks to him, we were able to relax completely, knowing our animals were in the best hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and professional, Ryan is the best choice you can make — truly a 10/10 experience. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-quality pet care! 🐾”
About: I've grown up around cats and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for them. I've owned a variety of cats, including Ragdolls, Maine Coon mixes (Ragcoons) and short-haired tabby cats, so I'm comfortable with different sizes, coats and personalities. I'm knowledgeable about appropriate diets, indoor-only cat care, feeding routines, litter trays and providing enrichment and companionship. I've also cared for cats belonging to family, friends and neighbours. I understand that every cat has their own personality and routine, and I'm patient and attentive to their individual needs.
“This is thee first time we have used Cat in a Flat. Nataliya could not have been more brilliant. Every day she contacted us with pictures of our cat and a description of what she was doing. We were reassured our cat was happy. On our return, it was obvious our cat had been well looked after by Natalija. We will definitely use her again. ”
“First time we have used the Rover app for looking after our two cats and couldn’t recommend Oscar enough. Loved getting photos while we were away. I think Theo was gutted when we got home!”
“Jess C. Was an excellent sitter for Clyde. A very nice and pleasant young lady. She sent us regular reports and photographs. She left the house and a very clean and tidy state. I would not hesitate to book Jess C. In the future. And I can highly recommend her to any one else who wants a pet sitter in the future. Thank you Jess C. ?”

I live in a spacious home with a secure garden where dogs can play safely. Our neighborhood has beautiful parks nearby for daily walks.

About: I am currently looking after a dog for a friend on a weekly basis, often going to the park, looking after him overnight, and sometimes day trips. I have raised my family dog since he was a puppy, so am fully aware of what that entails. When I go back home, I walk and take care of him. I live with my boyfriend who has had cats in the past, so I am used to having them in the house and how to take care of them. With this, I have lots of experience of walking, feeding, bathing, and keeping pets happy! I'm currently working from home full-time, so can look after pets at any time! My hours are also very flexible so I'm able to go for walks during my working day. I live in a flat, with a secure back garden that is fenced in. The front door to the flat block is always kept locked. I am happy to do whatever is needed to keep your pet safe and happy!

About: We don't have any pets but we usually take care of our friends dog when they're on holidays 😌 your dog will definitely be fed, walked and played with! So if your dog loves kids, it may be a perfect place for him to spend some time 👌 I am working mostly remotly, so it will be easy to schedule in walks with your pet and other care. Apart from school runs and a few ours some days a week in the evening to go to afterschool activities we are at home most of the time. If husband is not working and I am out with kids he would stay at home with a pet we are looking after. We will adapt our activities and make sure your pet has the best time in our care We have two daughters 3 yr old and 6 year old who loves little pets, but has never hurt any pet as both are a bit cautious. We all will love to play with your per throw toys and run around. We have medium sized back garden which is fully fenced and chance for pet to run away through the gaps as there's none. We would take your dog for a walk twice a day and of course feed him according to his needs and how he's used to at home.
“Our Mini-Labradoodle Sadie, had the BEST day with Aneta and her gorgeous doggy! She took such beautiful care of Sadie and gave us regular updates. And wow what a garden for them to play in. Thank you Aneta and family. Would recommend 100% and will book again. X”
About: I’ve looked after many kind of animals but more specifically dogs. I have cared for many breeds from springer spaniels to pugs. I have also cared for gun dogs and done basic training with working dogs. I can offer a flexible schedule to meet your needs. As I do university from home I can work around my academic schedule to suit your pets needs. I care for pets in my own home using a specific structure based off the needs of the owner. Whatever the owner would like me to do I can put it into a routine to ensure their animal gets the best treatment as possible.
“Our Labrador Buddy had the best time with Christine and Luke and their dalmation Hugo. Buddy has a lot of energy and he was a great match for Hugo. Communication with Christine was great and we got lots of videos and pictures throughout the day. The pictures got Buddy’s personality spot on. Highly recommend and would use again.”
“It was such a relief that Sarah helped us out at short notice while we were away on holiday, she had great communication and she immediately was so loving and affectionate to our dog. She kept us updated through the day so we had a completely worry free trip, and we’d highly recommend her! Thankyou Sarah”

“Kane provided great day care for Buddy on a super hot day when it was too hot for him to come to the beach with us. Buddy was really calm and happy when we collected him and had been kept nice and cool throughout the day. Thank you Kane, if we are in the area again we will definitely be in touch.”
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Bradley as our pet-sitter for our Maltipoo puppy, Theo. From the start, Bradley's genuine passion for animals was evident, and he quickly established a comforting connection with Theo. Throughout the day, Bradley went the extra mile, regularly sending us delightful photo updates that showcased Theo's joyful time under his care. The highlight was undoubtedly Theo's playdate with Bradley's own dog, Lincoln, providing our pup with a wonderful companion. Thank you, Bradley, for making Theo's day so special!”

About: I grew up with lots of animals like a tiny farm and since going to university, I have missed it :( I always go to my family house where there is 5 cats, 2 goldens and 10 chickens and 1 rabbit. May sound like a lot but there is never a moment of boredom. I work in Boston, 8:30-17:00 Monday to Friday. Please take that into consideration when booking me as it doesn’t not let me edit my work schedule into the app. Anytime after 17:30, if you want your dog walking I would be happy too. I really enjoy going on walks with dogs. I have a fenced garden and love going on walks. Dogs and cats are allowed on furniture so they have many places to venture and relax :)
“Angeliki has been a complete angel and taken care of our very anxious rescue dog, brilliantly. Super reliable, and flexible, very caring, she's taken him out for lovely walks in the fields and had him chilling out by the fire with calming music, sends regular photos and updates. Thank you ❤️”

I am an animal lover and what better way to spend my free time than with new furry friends.

I am very flexible and also available most days. I am very flexible in terms of looking after your pets to the way you prefer. This is something that will be communicated before I look after your pet so I know exactly how you wish for me to take care of them which suits you/them.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from high energy pups to older dogs who just need a slow stroll and gentle attention. While I’m new to offering pet care through Rover, I bring decades of hands-on experience from raising and looking after dogs within my own family. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and detail-oriented, the kind of person both pets and people can depend on. I occasionally get help from my husband and nephew, who are also lifelong dog owners, but I personally handle all Rover bookings and communication to make sure you always know who’s caring for your pet. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I plan my day around your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust my availability for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays based on your needs. If your pet has a specific schedule for feeding, walks, or medication, I’m happy to follow it closely. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, pets are cared for in a secure, structured, and loving environment. I have two friendly resident dogs who are well-socialized and enjoy the company of other dogs. Introductions are always done slowly and safely to ensure everyone feels comfortable. Depending on your pet’s needs, they can either relax indoors as part of the family or enjoy their own space in a clean, secure kennel with a run. I also have a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can play, explore, or just enjoy some fresh air in a safe, enclosed space. I always follow your instructions closely and provide consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and gentle care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
About: I have always been in and around dogs all my life. My Dad has two French Bulldogs, Ronnie and Frank. I love them both very much. When I see them, they always get taken out for regular walks and receive a lot of attention. I am also happy to bathe your dog(s) if required. We love all kinds of dogs from small to big, frenchies doing zoomies to big friendly Labradors Our schedule is fairly flexible. We work full time but there are some weeks where our work schedule changes. Please don’t hesitate to message what you require. We have a secure home and your dog(s) will have the full attention and loving it requires. I will also ensure to take them out for regular walks and toilet breaks.

About: I have just said farewell to my 15 year old Springer Spaniel and whilst I am not yet ready for a new companion I would love to look after your dog whilst you're on holiday. I recently retired and so available to take care of your dog all day, every day. I am used to walking 5+ miles a day and your pet will get at least 3 walks per day (if required/heat permits) and will be rarely left alone (if Sitting/boarding/day care). I have a fenced garden at the bottom of a quiet cul de sac, and live nearby a large orchard for safe (on lead) walks. Crate and dog bed available and covers on furniture if cuddles are required. I can accommodate 2 dogs from the same family at my home. I will decline bookings if we already have a dog with me.

“Ryan was absolutely amazing with our Ralphie, he took him on a long walk with not a lot of notice which we really appreciated!❤️ We received a full report card with pictures and a summary which was lovely to see, we’d recommend Ryan to absolutely anyone 🐾💕”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and my ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with long-term stays and understand how important consistency and care are when you’re away. I’ve taught my own dog a variety of fun and useful tricks including how to whisper. Whether it’s giving medication, handling special diets, or just offering a safe, loving environment, I’m fully committed to your pet’s well-being. I treat every dog like family and make sure they feel at home until you’re back. As a stay-at-home mum, I’m home nearly 24/7, which means your pet will have constant companionship, attention, and care throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to stick closely to your dog’s routine, whether that includes regular walks, playtime, feeding, or just relaxing company. Your pet will never feel lonely here! I only look after one family’s dogs at a time to make sure your dog has my full attention as well as no risk of any encounters with other dogs. All dog sitting takes place in my home, where pets are treated like family. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and can enjoy lounging or playing indoors freely. I also have a secure 0.37-acre garden—fully enclosed and perfect for safe, supervised outdoor time. Your dog will also have the company of my own friendly, well-socialized dog, making their stay more fun and comforting. I provide a safe, loving, and relaxed environment where your pet can feel completely at home.

About: I have always had a strong love for animals, especially dogs, as I grew up surrounded by lots of different pets. Being around animals from a young age has helped me develop a natural understanding of how to care for them, be patient with them, and make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable. My experience as a dog sitter is something I really enjoy because I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and needs. I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, fresh air and companionship while their owners are away. One of my favourite parts of dog sitting is taking dogs out for walks. I enjoy giving them the opportunity to explore, exercise and have fun, while also benefiting from being outdoors myself. Going for regular walks with a dog helps me stay active and supports my own health and wellbeing, making it something that I find both enjoyable and rewarding. Overall, looking after dogs is something I am passionate about. Growing up with pets, combined with my experience caring for animals, has taught me to be responsible, caring and attentive. I would always treat someone else's dog with the same care and respect that I would give to my own pets. Working from home allows me to provide dogs with the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to take regular breaks to feed them, let them outside, give them attention and take them out for walks. Being at home also means dogs are not left alone for long periods of time, which can help them feel more comfortable and settled. I can easily fit walks and playtime around my working schedule while still making sure my work commitments are met. I really enjoy being around dogs while I work, and I believe my home-based routine is ideal for dog sitting. It allows me to give each dog plenty of care and attention while providing a safe, calm and loving environment for them. Although my garden is on the smaller side, it is fully fenced and provides a safe and secure space for dogs to have regular toilet breaks and get some fresh air throughout the day. I understand that the garden is not intended to replace proper walks and exercise, but it is a convenient and secure space for quick toilet breaks whenever needed. I also live next to a beautiful bank and walking area, which is perfect for giving dogs plenty of exercise and outdoor stimulation. I regularly take my family’s dog there for walks and really enjoy spending time outdoors with him. The area provides a lovely environment for dogs to explore, get some exercise and enjoy their surroundings. Having both a secure garden and such a beautiful walking area nearby means I can provide dogs with regular toilet breaks, exercise and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
“Today Oscar visited us again, my dogs recognised him immediately and were very happy of seeing him again. This time after walking my 2 boxers together he also helped me to teach them how to use a special stair for the car boot which I have recently purchased. I can tell that the whole experience was very positive. I learn a lot from Oscar every time on how to interact with my dogs, how to create an easy going environment for the future. Visibly he has a wealth of knowledge on training dogs and control them with kindness, calmness and good energy.”

About: I grew up with lots of animals like a tiny farm and since going to university, I have missed it :( I always go to my family house where there is 5 cats, 2 goldens and 10 chickens and 1 rabbit. May sound like a lot but there is never a moment of boredom. I work in Boston, 8:30-17:00 Monday to Friday. Please take that into consideration when booking me as it doesn’t not let me edit my work schedule into the app. Anytime after 17:30, if you want your dog walking I would be happy too. I really enjoy going on walks with dogs. I have a fenced garden and love going on walks. Dogs and cats are allowed on furniture so they have many places to venture and relax :)
About: I have always been in and around dogs all my life. My Dad has two French Bulldogs, Ronnie and Frank. I love them both very much.

We love all kinds of dogs from small to big, frenchies doing zoomies to big friendly Labradors Our schedule is fairly flexible. We work full time but there are some weeks where our work schedule changes. Please don’t hesitate to message what you require.

About: 🐾 Fully Licensed • Fully Insured • DBS Checked • Full-Time Pet Care Professional 🐾 Hi, I’m Ryan, and welcome to Ry’s Pet Care! I’m a fully licensed home boarder, fully insured, and work full-time in pet care, allowing me to dedicate my time and attention to caring for dogs every single day. My goal is simple—to provide a safe, loving, home-from-home environment where your dog will be treated as part of the family. Having grown up with dogs and other pets, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Nothing makes me happier than building trusting relationships with dogs and giving owners complete peace of mind while they’re away. My beautiful Beagle, Ivy, was my world. Caring for her throughout her life, particularly during her later years when she required regular medication due to seizures and a brain tumour, taught me patience, compassion and the importance of tailoring care to each individual dog. She sadly passed away in October 2024, but caring for other people’s pets has become a wonderful way of honouring her memory. As I don’t currently have any pets of my own, every boarded dog, pet I sit for, or walked dog, receives my full attention without needing to compete for space or affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new smells, playing in the garden, relaxing on the sofa or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I’ll adapt my care to suit their individual personality and needs. I’m licensed to provide home boarding and have developed comprehensive welfare, safety and infection control procedures to ensure every dog enjoys a safe and comfortable stay. I also hold Pet First Aid certification, maintain detailed care records, and always prioritise each dog’s physical and emotional wellbeing. Communication is incredibly important to me. During your dog’s stay, or my sit, you’ll receive regular updates, together with plenty of photos and videos, so you can see exactly how they’re getting on and enjoy following their little holiday while you’re away. Whether your dog needs medication, has specific routines, dietary requirements or simply enjoys lots of cuddles and company, I’m always happy to accommodate their individual needs wherever possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I never take that responsibility for granted. My aim is for every dog to leave happy, relaxed and excited to return, while every owner feels confident they’ve found someone who genuinely cares. If you’d like to arrange a Meet & Greet or have any questions at all, I’d love to hear from you. I manage my own time and am a full time pet care professional so I have the flexibility to meet your pet's usual walk schedules, feeding time and administering of medication (if needed). When staying in your home, I will bring my own food and toiletries, I can also bring my own bedding if required, and even a single or double blow-up bed. I will only require water and electricity and will return the home to you as you left it for me. When boarding, your pets become part of our family, my aim is to make them feel as comfortable as they would in their own home. Your pet is my top priority, so please make me aware of their routines, preferences and training techniques/keywords and I will ensure these are kept to. I know how it feels to leave your pet(s) when you are away, constantly thinking about how they are and what they are getting up to! So, rest assured, I will take plenty of photos and keep you updated as much as you would like. I understand it is a big decision to leave your pet in a new environment, or to invite someone into your home and look after your pet and belongings! Therefore, I always recommend a meet-and-greet (at no extra charge), and am available to message or call with any questions to help build a rapport.
“Frankie loved his stay with Christine & Luke & Hugo! I’m sure Hugo & Frankie will be friends for life. Christine kept me happy by sending lots of videos & picture updates, I felt at ease & knew Frankie was being loved & looked after. Thank you so much for looking after my fur baby, I would highly recommend this wonderful family & home 🥰🐾”
“Sarah was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. She accomodated Kora last minute due to being let down elsewhere. Kora is still very nervous of people after being rescued a few years ago but obviously felt completely at ease with Sarah and appears to have had a great time and made herself at home! Communication excellent, updates through the stay and very accomodating regarding drop off and collection. Cannot fault at all, highly recommend”
“We really highly recommend Kane. First time for our 3 year old Whippet to be away from us and all the worry was for nothing. She was there with my older dog and was home from home for them. Great up dates and pictures. Both dogs well cared for and happy. Thank you so much and will definitely use again”
“Extremely happy with booking and would highly recommend Aneta. Aneta looked after my cockapoo for an overnight stay. He's normally a very nervous and clingy dog but from the get go Aneta was extremely professional and planned Berties stay in advance to ensure that he was made as comfortable and happy as possible. She took him on plenty of walks and showed him extensive attention and affection throughout his stay. Making sure he felt at home. I loved getting regular updates and photos showing how he was getting on. Bertie left happy and stress free. What more could you ask for? Very happy, thank you!”
“Willow loved her stay with Bradley & didn’t seem to want to come home! Bradley was very attentive & sent numerous updates throughout the duration of the stay. Willow will definitely be back again soon :)”
“Really happy to have found Brooke. Beatrix seemed to have had a lovely time. Received lots of updates and videos of her enjoying herself. Would be happy to use Brooke’s service again and highly likely to at some point in the future.”
“Shaun and Jackie were very accommodating for my dog Olives 1st visit. Olive was made to feel at ease and appears to have settled in as part of their family. We felt confident and were provided with updates over her visit. Olive will return to Shaun and Jackie’s on a regular basis and we are confident she is well looked after and safe. If people are looking for a great dog sitter, we would highly recommend Shaun and Jackie.”
“Sandra went above and beyond when our train was delayed meaning we would struggle to pick up the dogs on time and she drove the 30 mins each way to drop them off at my daughter’s house. Both dogs seemed to have enjoyed their time with Sandra. Such a shame she is over an hour away from my home.”
“Rosie has had such a fun day!!!! Lovely walks and lots of fuss, she's certainly felt relaxed and at home. Jonathan and his wife looked after Rosie really well for the day. Thankyou 😊”
“I honestly cannot express how HAPPY we are with the care and attention Naomi gave our little boy. He's never been left with someone before and from the photos and videos he had a better time than what we did! If you are thinking of anyone to look after your fur baby, I can't recommend this beautiful and caring lady enough! Will never ever leave him with anyone else ever. Thank you so much Naomi ♥️”
“Cuba was very happy with Laura and came home full of herself! When our return plans changed, Laura was very accommodating and understanding. Cuba is booked in with Laura again and I have no hesitation in recommending her.”
About: I’ve looked after many kind of animals but more specifically dogs. I have cared for many breeds from springer spaniels to pugs. I have also cared for gun dogs and done basic training with working dogs. I can offer a flexible schedule to meet your needs. As I do university from home I can work around my academic schedule to suit your pets needs. I care for pets in my own home using a specific structure based off the needs of the owner. Whatever the owner would like me to do I can put it into a routine to ensure their animal gets the best treatment as possible.
“Thank you once again for looking after Harvey like he was your own ❤️ I really appreciate the re-assuring pupdates, it means that I can actually relax and enjoy my holiday without stressing about my special boy. I feel confident that he is safe and happy and totally at home with you and your family. I'm not actually sure he wanted to come back home with me on pick up morning!!”
“Was our first time leaving our German shepherd in another house without us . I had explained Katie he can get anxious but she assured me that he will be in the best hands .

“After Sarah agreed to look after Henry. We went to meet her and her husband Bob. Henry took an instant liking to both. We went back for a second meet, Henry ran straight upto them and into the house and made himself at home. I had no doubts what so ever leaving him with Sarah and Bob. Sarah sent photos of Henry, he looked happy and at home. I can't recommend Sarah enough to look after your dog. He will be so well looked after. Will certainly be booking Henry in again.
