“Highly recommend Lucy for daycare and boarding, Sidney was pining for her and Marnie when we got home, he missed their company and cuddles 🥹 I felt completely at home myself when I dropped him off and Sidney definitely did! We'll definitely be booking with Lucy again when we need to 😊 Thank you Lucy 🙂”
“Lovely couple. Confirmed by my dog who doesn't like anyone outside of my husband and i ! However, by the end of the week he had made friends and was even comfortable enough to cuddle them! Something i didn't expect to see. When i collected him he was perfectly happy to let them put his lead on and wander between us rather than his usual of hiding behind me. Will definitely be using in the future !”
“Great service. Charlie isn't the easiest dog to look after but Meisha made us feel at ease and reassured to leave Charlie with her. He was well cared for and looked after like he was her own dog. Would definitely book with her again”
“Ellen was absolutely amazing and sent us a lot of photo updates during Bella’s stay with her. Bella is a quite nervous dog but she really loved staying with Ellen, which says a lot ☺️”
“Highly recommended and gave my dogs a home from home experience. Shelby looked after my two dogs for two nights and we were updated lots with photos of them playing, out on walks and snuggled up with Shelby. We were put at ease straight away when we met them before boarding and this trust and care for our dogs continued with excellent communication before, during and after the boarding experience. We will definitely trust and use them again. Thank you so much guys.”
“Karen offered Sodapop a relaxing and secure environment for her overnight stay. Karen is clearly an experienced and knowledgeable dog lover and we felt extremely comfortable leaving Sodapop in her care. She provided regular updates and photos of their time together which was very reassuring. We will definitely use Karen's services again.”
“A big thankyou to Josef & his family for looking after Slinky (now known as Sweet Old Grandpa! ;-) ) Slinky hadn't had the best life until he came to England and came with some issues too but Josef was happy to take him on and I appreciate that whole heartedly. Lovely sweet family who I know showered Slinky with affection. Very relaxed loving home and this showed when I went to pick him up and he didn't even come running to me. Thankyou Nina & David and of course sweet old Grandpa”

“Fabiana is a fanatic host. It's clear that she pays a lot of attention to each individual dog and their needs. She took the time to get to know our dog and made sure he was introduced nicely to her own dog, home and family. Our dog had a great time and we'll be booking again with Fabiana soon!”
“Meg was really good with Alfred, she was excellent at communication and followed all instructions. Thanks A lot for looking after Alfred, he came back happy and relaxed. Recommend and would definitely book Meg again!”
“It's been an absolute pleasure to leave Lola with Sue, she is such a lovely lady and took such good care of Lola. We are very confident that we have found the right person to leave Lola with whenever we need to. I actually think Lola didn't want to come home. Thank you Sue”
“Elvis loved his stay at Armans. We had regular updates and Elvis and Benji got on really well. Arman was really easy to communicate with and we’d be happy to use their service again. Thanks so much”
“Ellie was an absolute angel. Leaving my precious Slinky while I travelled to Germany was such a big step for me, as I’d never left her with anyone outside of family before. Ellie completely put my mind at ease with regular updates, photos, and videos, and I could see how happy and loved Slinky was. When I picked her up, she didn’t even want to leave, which says everything. Knowing my baby was safe and adored meant the world to me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Ellie again! 🐾💕”
“Theo had a good familiarisation stay overnight with David before his main holiday with him in August and he got on very well. David kept us well informed of things and provided photos.”

Nothing was too much for Emily and we have already booked here again! FIVE STAR SERVICE”
“Amazing work and a brave man not put off by our three idiots of cats. Will definitely add Jack to our list of regular sitters. Thank you so much, Jack, we had a relaxing time knowing the idiots were well looked after.”
“Lucy was absolutely brilliant while looking after my cat. From the moment we got in touch, her communication was spot on – always quick to reply and super friendly. While I was away, she sent regular updates and plenty of photos. I’d definitely recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet-sitter. Will 100% be asking her again next time I’m away.”
“Nicola regularly walks our sausage dog Clive , she is very reliable and always so lovely. We feel very lucky to have Nicola and Clive loves her! Clive has recently had surgery which has meant there’s been lots of extra requests we have had for Nicola during her visits and she has been so kind and accommodating every time! We cannot recommend Nicola enough!”
“Sharon was amazing! She really took her time and gave our cat, Boris a great fuss and made sure he was so well looked after whilst we were away for the weekend. She sent lots of pictures and such a detailed message from each visit to him! She really made us feel completely at ease, I would recommend her to anyone! Will definitely be booking again xx”
“Many thanks Lauren for looking after Stella over Christmas! Stella was perfectly relaxed and happy when I returned and Lauren had sent me reassuring emails both during and on the last day!”
“I decided to try housesitting as my cat has struggled with my previous arrangements during holidays. I was very nervous about it as I’ve never used a house-sitter before. I’m so glad I found Jordan and booked him. He was wonderful. Jordan took very good care of the house and made sure my cat was happy. I received lots of updates and pictures which gave me enormous peace of mind. My cat had a lovely time hanging out with Jordan and was sad when he left! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jordan or book him again in the future 😊”
About: I've had dogs and cats since I was 13 - puppies and kittens right up to elderly dogs and cats. I've owned two dogs and a cat in my time, and we're looking to get another puppy in the next year! I'm a massive animal lover and will dote on your pets as if they were my own.
About: I have worked with my mum in her cat sitting business for several years and also have a cat of my own. I am able to administer medications if needed (this would need to be discussed at meet and greet), happy to empty a litter tray as often as you would like (skipping daily), happy to play with your cat(s) if that's what they want or just admire from a distance. Can also water plants/put bins out etc, just ask :)
About: I’m a reliable and caring cat sitter with a lifelong love for cats. Having grown up surrounded by cats and currently owning one myself, I understand their unique personalities, routines, and needs. I’m experienced in feeding, litter care, playtime, and giving cats the patience and attention they deserve-whether they’re energetic or more reserved. I know how important it is for cats to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment, so I always aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible while providing plenty of affection and companionship. You can trust that your cat will be well looked after, happy, and stress-free while you’re away.
About: I grew up with cats in our household as a child and then as an adult I had a Siamese and 2 Tabby cats. I love cats and would treat your cats as if they were my own. I would prefer to look after your cats in their own home so that it doesn't disrupt their routine too much but if that isn't convenient then I could have them at my bungalow. Your cat's comfort and happiness is my main priority. I have experience of giving medication via injection as my dog was diabetic and needed insulin injections twice a day as well as oral medication. I have experience of caring for senior pets, age 14 & 15 years old
“Fabiana is so kind and professional; our dog is quite anxious around new people in our home and Fabiana has been very assertive this week, getting to know Lara before her drop in sessions. We’ll definitely be using Fabiana again ❤️🐕”

I support a local fostering charity when their foster carers are away and need respite. DBS checked and can provide testimonials.
About: I am a compassionate, lifetime animal lover with extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats of all temperaments, ages and medical needs. Having recently cared for my own rescue dog until she passed at age 13, I am deeply experienced in complex senior care, mobility challenges, and medical routines. Beyond dogs, I am also an experienced cat sitter—including handling independent, timid, or "moody" cats, and managing long-term assignments (such as 6-week house-sitting stints for clients who split time abroad). My Experience & Skills: Professional Sitting: Previous experience as a professional nanny looking after family pets alongside children, as well as standalone paid pet sitting. Feline Care: Comfortable with all cat personalities, from high-energy kittens to sensitive or independent seniors who need their space respected. Special Needs & Handling: Experienced with medication administration, managing senior/incontinent pets, and handling big, strong dogs. Flexible Schedule: I work remotely, meaning I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability during the day to keep your pets company and stick to strict routines.

“Joseph and his family are lovely. They truly love the dogs who are in their care, and make every effort to accommodate their needs and their owners goals. Truly a joy to share my pup with them!”
“George took excellent care of Dixie during her day with him. He sent many pictures to reassure us she was happy and settled. This was Dixie’s first day away from us so we were a little nervous but there was absolutely no need to be. We were held up leaving Tramlines due to the traffic and ended up being 45 mins late to pick Dixie up. George was very patient and kind, waiting up for us to pick her up. Thank you George, Lemmy and family for your wonderful care of our dog!”
“David was clearly a dog lover and both dogs seemed happy to go back on the second day. David was very good at communicating and sent photos of Leo and Poppy. I would not hesitate to recommend David nor leave Leo and Poppy with David again.”
“My puppy Lola was well looked after. Gabrielle took her out for her pretty regular toilet breaks (being such a young pup), and made sure she was cared for and given lots of cuddles. I knew I’d left her in good hands :)”
About: Our Labrador Benji has come such a long way! When we rescued him two years ago, he was anxious and struggled with trust. Today, he's the sweetest, most playful boy you'll meet. His journey taught us patience, compassion, and what dogs truly need to thrive. We'll give your dog that same dedication—plus a built-in playmate who never says no to a game of fetch! As a work-from-home couple, we're around virtually all day—your pup will never be alone! We welcome guests on weekdays and weekends. Benji gets two daily walks to our local park, and your dog will join us. Off-lead dogs can enjoy fetch and play sessions together, while dogs who prefer staying on-lead will get quality walking time and gentle companionship at their own pace. Between walks, we will be relaxing at home with access to our fenced garden as well as treats! As we work from home, there is always someone around. The dogs will have access to our fenced garden for their needs or to play. Plenty of toys and napping spots are available too!
About: We’ve both been around dogs our entire lives and have experience caring for a variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. Ryan grew up with a Husky and a Border Collie, giving him hands-on experience with energetic, intelligent dogs that require plenty of exercise, training, and attention. Over the years, he’s also spent time around many other breeds and is comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes. Esmeralda has also grown up with dogs and currently cares for her 8-year-old Chow Chow, giving her ongoing experience with daily routines, grooming, exercise, and understanding a dog’s individual needs. We also leave our Chow Chow with sitters when we’re away, so we understand the process from a dog owner’s perspective and know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. Together, we’re confident caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. We know how important it is to keep your dog happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away, and we’ll treat them with the same lovec and care we’d give our own pets. Pets fit naturally into our daily routine, and someone is always home to give them the attention and care they deserve. Ryan is self-employed, which gives him the flexibility to work around the dogs’ needs, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to their usual routine. Esmeralda is a stay-at-home parent to our 6-year-old, so apart from the school run during the week and football activities at weekends, she’s at home throughout the day. This means your dog will rarely be left alone and will enjoy plenty of companionship, exercise, toilet breaks, and affection. We understand how important it is for dogs to feel settled and cared for, so we’ll make sure they receive lots of love and attention while they’re with us. Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We provide a calm, secure, and loving home where pets are treated like part of the family. We have a secure, fenced garden in a quiet estate with only six houses, giving a safe and peaceful environment for dogs to relax and play. We’re also very lucky to have a park just 10 seconds away, which makes daily walks and exercise easy, fun, and consistent. We also have our own dog, Dita, our friendly 8-year-old Chow Chow, who is calm, well-behaved, and used to having other dogs around. This helps create a relaxed and social home environment for visiting dogs. Our home is a safe, family-friendly environment where dogs are supervised throughout the day. We always take care to follow each dog’s individual routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding, walking, medication, and comfort needs. We believe trust is built through communication, so we’re always happy to send updates, photos, and messages so you can see how your dog is getting on while you’re away. With Ryan’s flexible self-employed schedule and Esmeralda being home for most of the day, your dog will have consistent supervision, companionship, and care in a relaxed home environment.
“Teasel had a lovely time and Ellen was really helpful, asked lots of questions, met up with us beforehand, sent photos and made Teasel feel really at home - she didn’t even seem bothered when I was leaving her, which is unusual!”
“Super easy organisation with Holly due to great communication. Frank clearly had a great day and came back very tired after her day out. No hesitation to use Holly again for her first overnight stay very soon (Frankie says she can’t wait!)”
About: I have many years experience caring for my own pets and for family and friends, including feeding, walking, and making sure they feel comfortable and settled while their owners are away. As a young child I was taught how to care for our family pets, from cats, guinee pigs, hamsters and goldfish, dogs came later into my life when I became a young adult. I understand how important routine is for animals, and I always take the time to get to know their individual needs and personalities. When it comes to home care, I’m tidy, trustworthy, and conscientious. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and well looked after. Whether it’s watering plants, keeping things organised, or simply ensuring everything runs smoothly, I take pride in doing things properly. Above all, I genuinely enjoy helping others and providing peace of mind, knowing that both pets and homes are in safe hands. At the moment, I work from home four days a week, which suits me perfectly as it allows me to care for my dog and look after any others when needed. This arrangement gives me the flexibility to manage my responsibilities comfortably and ensures the pets receive plenty of attention throughout the day. During the weekends, I have increased availability to care for your beloved pets, should you need it. My days are dedicated to discovering fresh walking routes and exploring new destinations, all tailored to provide plenty of stimulation and adventure for those curious noses eager to experience new scents and surroundings. I have a fenced secure garden which is pet friendly just like my home, creating a safe, trusting, and comfortable environment is always my top priority. I take time to get to know each pet’s routine, likes, and dislikes to help them feel right at home. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just some quiet company, I always make sure their wellbeing comes first. I pay close attention to any instructions or special needs, and I’m happy to adapt my approach depending on the service you need. If you have any questions or specific requests, please let me know—your pet’s safety and happiness are at the heart of everything I do!

“Nicola has been walking both our whippets for a couple of months now and we couldn't be happier. Reliable, freindly and both dogs are loving getting the extra walks. Thank you Nicola!”
About: I have lived with dogs since I was 10 years old. We are a family of dog lovers and our dogs are our babies. I have now been dog sitting with my partner since November and we have cared for multiple dogs needing different levels of care. We have received multiple bookings and positive feedback from all of our clients. We have our own dog who we care for and walk every day. We have lots of ideas of dog walks and also know what it is like to care for a reactive dog as our dog can be anxious around other dogs. I provide regular updates to you as an owner as I know how important this is for you. Every dog we have cared for has become part of our family for the short time we’ve had them and we always miss them and hope to see them again soon! I am looking to earn some extra money pet sitting and dog walking. As I am a primary school teacher this is something that me and my partner are able to do on evenings, weekends or school holidays. We are eager to fit in pet care at weekends and school holidays as it is something we really enjoying doing. We can care for dogs in our own home due to our dog being reactive he would not be in our home and would be cared for by my partner’s mum who shares the dog with us at her home. We treat your dog like our own and the safety of your pet is of paramount importance. We always think about how we would want someone to care for our dog when caring for your pets. Our pets are our babies and when your pet stays with us we welcome them in as a member of our family.
“Fabiana is fantastic! I have a rescue who has a few behavioural issues but Fabiana really took the time to understand her and make sure we all felt comfortable. She is so gentle and thorough and kept me updated throughout with pictures and videos. Penny can't wait to see her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Jordan, a passionate and reliable pet sitter with extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments.

I’m calm, observant, and confident in handling everything from energetic pups to more senior dogs who just want a cuddle and a slow stroll. I do not currently offer boarding in my own home, and I’m happy to discuss any specific requirements – including vaccination status and medical needs – during our initial chat.

About: I grew up with dogs in our household and for the last 20 years I've had my own dogs but lost my last one, Sanza, a Toy Poodle, in June 2025. I dog sit two Dachshund sisters aged 15 regularly and enjoy it very much. I love dogs and would treat your dogs as if they were my own. Your pet's comfort, happiness and safety is my priority.

I also have experience of looking after senior dogs as I have cared for dogs who are 14 and 15 years old. I am available to look after your dogs in my home or at your home so they have as little disruption to their routine as possible. I am retired so I'am at home all day so can look after your pets whenever you need me. I'm very flexible and can adjust my schedule to fit in around your needs. I have an enclosed garden which is fully fenced/ brick wall. The garden is very secure. I live in a semi detached bungalow so there are no stairs to climb. I have lots of toys for your dogs to play with. I am available to look after them in their own home or at my home. I am retired so I am around all the time to look after your dogs. I prefer to look after small dogs but will look after medium sized dogs as long as they walk well on the lead as I walk with a crutch so can't manage to walk large dogs who pull or lunge too strongly when they react to other dogs. I do not look after large dogs for safety reasons.

“Ellie is amazing! Her love, care and passion for animals is second to none. When meeting Ellie for the first time, she instantly made us feel at ease, our puppy Ralphy instantly fell asleep in her arms! Ellie made sure to understand and implement our routines for consistency for our puppy and also gave equal attention to our two cats. We absolutely will be booking in again with Ellie, cannot recommend her enough!”
“Huge thanks to Ellie & Ben. Couldn't be happier with the way they look after Diego. He looks forward to seeing them & really enjoys his walks. We have no hesitation in recommending them. We also will have no hesitation in using Ellie & Ben for daycare & longer stays if possible. 10 out of 10 all round.”

This helps create a relaxed and social home environment for visiting dogs. Our home is a safe, family-friendly environment where dogs are supervised throughout the day. We always take care to follow each dog’s individual routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding, walking, medication, and comfort needs. We believe trust is built through communication, so we’re always happy to send updates, photos, and messages so you can see how your dog is getting on while you’re away. With Ryan’s flexible self-employed schedule and Esmeralda being home for most of the day, your dog will have consistent supervision, companionship, and care in a relaxed home environment.

About: I’ve been lucky enough to spend my life surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes – from playful pups and cuddly cats to tropical fish, and even bees! 🐝 Animals have always been a huge part of my world, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have hands-on experience looking after dogs, cats, and fish. I’ve also trained my own dogs, which means I understand how important patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are. Whether it’s a puppy learning the ropes, or an older dog who needs a gentler pace, I adapt to each animal’s unique needs. With bees, I’ve learned the importance of calm handling, respect, and attentiveness – skills I bring to all the pets I care for. Safety, trust, and making sure your pet feels comfortable are always my top priorities. Your furry (or finned!) family member will be cared for as if they were my own – with love, attention, and plenty of fun. A Day in My Care 🐾 • Morning Walks (7am – 9am): A refreshing start to the day with plenty of exercise, sniffing, and tail wags. Perfect for dogs who like to burn off energy first thing. Session length can be discussed. • Midday Visits (11am – 2pm): Feeding, toilet breaks, playtime, or a calm walk — tailored to your pet’s routine. • Afternoon Adventures (3pm – 5pm): Shorter walks as welcome as the longer ones, or quieter sessions in the garden depending on your dog’s needs. • Evening Check-Ins (6pm – 8pm): Dinner, toilet breaks, and some quiet companionship to wind down. Your pet’s safety and happiness always come first. I understand how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. • Safety: I keep walks controlled, calm, and enjoyable. I only use secure leads and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas, and always pay attention to your dog’s comfort and limits. It’s always good to get to know your dog beforehand so let me know what they’re like both inside and outside, any behavioural quirks or anything else you might think useful. • Trust: Animals respond best when they feel safe and respected. I will take time to get to know your pet’s personality so they can relax and enjoy themselves while you’re away. • Environment: I adapt to your pet’s routine and surroundings to reduce stress and keep things familiar. Walks can be energetic adventures or calm strolls, depending on what your dog needs. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be cared for with patience, consistency, and kindness — as if they were my own.

“Highly recommend Lucy for daycare and boarding, Sidney was pining for her and Marnie when we got home, he missed their company and cuddles 🥹 I felt completely at home myself when I dropped him off and Sidney definitely did! We'll definitely be booking with Lucy again when we need to 😊 Thank you Lucy 🙂”
“Lovely couple. Confirmed by my dog who doesn't like anyone outside of my husband and i ! However, by the end of the week he had made friends and was even comfortable enough to cuddle them! Something i didn't expect to see. When i collected him he was perfectly happy to let them put his lead on and wander between us rather than his usual of hiding behind me. Will definitely be using in the future !”
“Great service. Charlie isn't the easiest dog to look after but Meisha made us feel at ease and reassured to leave Charlie with her. He was well cared for and looked after like he was her own dog. Would definitely book with her again”
“Ellen was absolutely amazing and sent us a lot of photo updates during Bella’s stay with her. Bella is a quite nervous dog but she really loved staying with Ellen, which says a lot ☺️”
“Highly recommended and gave my dogs a home from home experience. Shelby looked after my two dogs for two nights and we were updated lots with photos of them playing, out on walks and snuggled up with Shelby. We were put at ease straight away when we met them before boarding and this trust and care for our dogs continued with excellent communication before, during and after the boarding experience. We will definitely trust and use them again. Thank you so much guys.”
“A big thankyou to Josef & his family for looking after Slinky (now known as Sweet Old Grandpa! ;-) ) Slinky hadn't had the best life until he came to England and came with some issues too but Josef was happy to take him on and I appreciate that whole heartedly. Lovely sweet family who I know showered Slinky with affection. Very relaxed loving home and this showed when I went to pick him up and he didn't even come running to me. Thankyou Nina & David and of course sweet old Grandpa”
“We have just got Rosie home from her 7 day stay with Tracy..we were a little anxious leaving her as she can be a bit of a handful 😉 but all has been well lots of pics and updates from Tracy Rosie definitely made herself at home thankyou very much for having her ..jackie .steve and Rosie xxx”
“Meg was really good with Alfred, she was excellent at communication and followed all instructions. Thanks A lot for looking after Alfred, he came back happy and relaxed. Recommend and would definitely book Meg again!”
“Elvis loved his stay at Armans. We had regular updates and Elvis and Benji got on really well. Arman was really easy to communicate with and we’d be happy to use their service again. Thanks so much”
“Thanks so much for taking such great care of our Rosie. George was great with communication and sending photo's, allowing us to feel confident she was in good hand's while we were away. Would 100% book again.”
“Sarah was fantastic with our rescue greyhound, Cora. This was our first time leaving her with a sitter so we were a little nervous, but Sarah put our minds at ease with photos and updates. We also felt very comfortable leaving Cora with Sarah because of her many years of sighthound experience and calm demeanor. Her own greyhound Daisy is also wonderful around other dogs and was patient with Cora's toy and bed theft! Would definitely recommend for sighthounds and non-sighthounds alike!”
“Jo took care of our 5 month old Boston for 9 nights and she was very well looked after. We got photos and videos while we were away and our pup seemed very content! Jo was also thorough in making sure our dog was fully vaccinated and up to date with flea and worming treatment which was a comfort as she looks after multiple dogs during the day so it was good to know she makes sure they are all healthy. We also took our pup to Jo for a day's trial before the actual stay which was great for all of us and meant she wasn't going somewhere unfamiliar when we went away. We would definitely make use of Jo's services again and would recommend her to others.”
“Antonia was absolutely brilliant from start to finish! I booked with her at very short notice and dropped by dog off without a meet and greet (my choice) but my dog settled straight away. I received pictures and updates throughout the weekend and picked a happy doggy up! I was also a few hours later than anticipated but Antonia was very understanding. Thanks so much Antonia, I highly recommend you :)”
“Becki did a fantastic job looking after Jess who had just started on lots of new medication which Becki managed with ease. We could see from the way Becki interacted with Jess that she clearly loves dogs and that Jess would be well cared for. We felt very reassured leaving Jess and will definitely ask Becki to look after her again.”
“Jasper had a fantastic time with Hollie out waking. He was treated just like he would have been at home. Hollie was excellent at sending updates and photos which put my mind at rest Would highly recommend her and will be using Hollie again.”
