About: Since I’ve loved dogs all my life, I’ve read a lot about their behaviours in my spare time. We have one dog and look after other dogs including senior dogs of family and friends, regularly. Both me and my partner Alex have had dogs since we were children. Experience with training dogs and puppies too. We have a large secure garden for roaming and sniffing. We love to go for morning and evening walks every day and there’s a great walking path close by, perfect for dog walks. On the weekends we tend to go to local parks for fresh air whatever the weather! I understand the needs of different types of dogs, whether that’s energy levels, age or personality and cater their day to suit them. It is so important to be that they feel happy and comfortable with us. If your dog needs a loving holiday home with a stable routine for a while, plus a very friendly happy well behaved dog and two children who adore dogs but give them space, then we would love to welcome your fur baby from your home to ours. Please get in touch :) I work from home with opportunity to play, cuddle and look at your fur baby. I have dog called Jasper, who loves to have friends over so will keep your dog company. We love being at home and one of us is always around. A typical day would be a morning sniff and runaround the garden first thing, or walk and then breakfast. Around lunchtime is also treat time and a little play and fuss, 5pm we’re in the kitchen/garden, and it’s playtime before dinner for dogs as and when adjusted to their needs. Finishing the day with an after dinner walk and snuggles on the sofa. I have a large fenced garden to keep your dogs safe, with my dog loving company. I can happily crate your dog if needed. We have a few areas downstairs if dogs would like their own time/ sleep without being disturbed too.
“Sheena took great care of my dog over the New year and I couldn’t be more happy. She was brilliant communicator keeping me informed with loads of photos and texts. She followed his routine and even did extra walks. Charlie was very happy when I picked him up. I would be happy to recommend her and will be using her again. Thanks Sheena”
“Manuela was amazing with my dog, despite of him being left without me for the first time, and him being anxious as well as me, she did her best to make Peanut comfortable and happy. She sent constant updates on how peanut was doing, and when I got back I could tell he was well cared for. Thanks Manuela you are amazing”
“Used Rachel again after she had Patch for the day and he had a great time. Rachel and her partner provide such great care for dogs in their care, they treat Patch like their own and they even took him for his swimming lesson. Rachel is such an enthusiastic person about dogs and couldn’t ask for a better service.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life, and currently have a golden retriever two years old, called Sam. I work from home Monday Wednesday Thursday and can do weekends. Sam is playful and friendly and would love the company of another dog too, I have a spacious garden, and a cool house in summer. I work from home so can look after your pup. I am saving for a new house so I’m pretty much home all the time! a lunchtime walk and access to a large fenced garden and a cool living room/kitchen. I spend most of the day with a golden retriever so can offer human and mutt company for your pup!
“It was our first time having a sitter for Spark and I felt really reassured when meeting Tarnya. She clearly has alot of experience with dogs and I knew that Spark would be well looked after. Thanks so much for looking after him, I'm sure he will be back soon!”
“Looked after Mylo to the highest standard. Was welcoming, lovely and compassionate. I will be using you again to look after Mylo. You catered for his needs and looked after him as if he was your own. I appreciate the short notice and thank you again! 😊”
“Grainne took really good care of George at late notice when I had to be called out of town for work. It was during a heatwave and George was kept cool and stimulated with Oscar! He has been sleepjnf like a log since he has come home.”
“We’ve had a great experience with our cat sitters – they were absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, it was clear how kind, gentle, and genuinely caring they are. Our cat Tibby had never stayed away from home before, so we were naturally a bit nervous, but Leah was so reassuring and made me feel completely at ease. Throughout Tibby’s stay, we received regular updates and photos, which meant so much to us and really showed how well he was being looked after. It was so comforting to see him relaxed, happy, and clearly in such good hands. They treated Tibby like one of their own, and we could tell he was extremely well cared for. We’re beyond grateful to both Leah and her partner for their kindness and attentiveness, and we would gladly have Tibby stay with them again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for loving and reliable cat care!”
“Millie was well settled for her overnight stay and had lots of fun. Jordan consistently updated me with photos and videos of Millie. Jordan was very helpful in our meet and greet too and answered any queries I had. I definitely recommend booking with Jordan!”
“Absolutely fantastic host for Kora. Seemed like she absolutely loved staying there and I had regular updates which helps massively. Wilf, their other dog was lovely and think my dog wants to go back just to have some more time with him!! Thanks both.”
About: My boyfriend and I both grew up with family dogs, and ever since moving in together had our own dog. We trained her via doggy school since she was a little pup and took her on many adventures that went as far as moving to the UK with her. We regularly looked after our families dogs as well when they went away on holiday. We unfortunately had to say goodbye to our little girl recently due to age. While we are looking for our next sweetheart, we have an abundance of love, walks and empty spots on the sofa for your furry friend! I work from home, but I occasionally have to travel for work and my partner is only 10 minutes away - both with flexible hours. This allows us to plan our days around your dogs needs! We live less then a minute walk from a big park and can easily go for multiple walks a day if they’re up to it. We also have a fully enclosed garden with space for running around. We’re flexible with your dogs needs, whether they require a crate to sleep in, prefer to sleep on the couch or on their doggy bed, just let us know. Near the end of her life, our dog became blind with different health issues. Going through this gives us experience to also take care of (senior) dogs who have a complex medical history. We have full flexibility for how we plan our working days. Whether we wake up early to go for a walk before breakfast, use our lunch break, or swap our evening sports for a long walk, we will adjust based on your dogs usual routine. With our enclosed garden, there’s plenty of playtime opportunities as well! In the weekend, we are able to make sure one of us is at home for most of the day if required. The garden is spacious and dog friendly. The house has enough room to place the dog’s personal bed or crate if needed. They are more then welcome to join us (and sleep) on our sofa as well. Feeding and walking are arranged to what they are used to, no matter how many times a day. Different medical routines are easily incorporated - experience with eye drops as well as regular pills.

About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable animal lover and proud dog owner. I have a female Cockapoo called Maeve who is spayed and has a wonderful personality. She’s energetic, playful, cuddly, and loves meeting other dogs. One of the reasons I’m excited to offer pet sitting is that I’d love for Maeve to make more doggy friends. While I’d love a second dog one day, I can’t commit to one just yet, so Rover is the perfect way to spend more time with amazing dogs while giving them a safe, loving environment. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, as I would want the very best care for Maeve when she’s with someone else. I will treat your dog like one of my own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, affection, and care tailored to their individual needs and routine. I work from home so your pups will never be alone for long periods of time, and theres lots of fields near me for our pups to run and play!

“Rebecca was absolutely fantastic and I trusted her from the moment I met her, our little kitten Morley instantly took to her and her updates and the check messages were so reassuring to me overall she is absolutely exceptional and I would have no hesitation in recommending her and using her again! Should be 10* thank you so so much.”
“First time using Laura, who really helped us out last minute with cat sitting which was hugely appreciated. She came for our house key a couple of days before and listened to me waffle on about all our cats quirks and habits, and updated us whilst we were away with photos and pictures of the cats clearly living their best lives! I'd be more than happy to use her as a sitter again! Cheers Laura!”
“Tracey has just looked after my 2 cats for a few days. She was incredibly friendly & asked lots of questions to make sure they were well cared for whilst I was away. I received regular updates & photos so I knew exactly how they were doing & I came home to 2 happy kitties!”
“Emma and her family were great during a late notice cat sitting for our old cat with several medical requirements! I was at ease with lots of updates and really happy with everything thanks so much!”
“Donna was friendly and professional in all ways. She was flexible with the exact time when to pick up and drop off my cat, and she came back healthy and well groomed. -- Thank you!”
“Judit popped in and fed our cat just as we asked. Our cat can be a bit scared so she didnt get to see him, but did her best to look for him. Everything looks like he has been well looked after!”
“Dori, is a cat owner's dream. A professional, caring and conscientious cat sitter who kept two timid cats excellently maintained over a week. Dori updated me daily on their well-being. The two cats ate their food; bowls were washed; litter cleaned. Dori even bought extra toys for the two girls -how amazing!! I recommend Dori 100%”
About: I’ve cared for cats with all kinds of personalities from playful kittens to shy or senior cats who need a quieter, gentler touch. I understand the importance of sticking to their routines, keeping litter boxes fresh and clean, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I sometimes cat sit for my sister, who has 4 cats. Which one of them has a respiratory condition. This has given me hands on experience administering daily oral medication every morning, monitoring his well-being and making sure he’s comfortable. I’m also comfortable following special feeding schedules and providing enrichment through play and interaction (or simply sitting nearby for the cats who prefer quiet company). Whether your cat is a lap cuddler or a “love from a distance” type, I’ll make sure they get the care, respect, and attention they deserve! 🐾
“Can't praise Kat enough, a genuine cat lover, trusted her completely with my boy. Went above and beyond, followed everything to a T and sent loads of lovely pics to put my mind at ease. My boy was content and relaxed on my return. Would 100% recommend 🙏😻”
About: Hi! I'm Leah, a devoted cat lover based in Carlton. I am known to befriend cats wherever I am and I like to do my bit for the stray cats whilst roaming around on my holidays. I am a big lover of all animals, but cats hold a particularly special place in my heart. I am the owner of Peanut, my rescue cat for the past 12 years who I love to bits. I have cared for him through various health issues and traumas which has given me valuable experience in understanding feline behaviour, administering medication, monitoring health concerns and recognising when they need a little extra attention. I am a self employed yoga teacher and I have set teaching hours in the week. I have the flexibility to fit in visits around my schedule to provide plenty of love, care and attention for your cat. I understand that many cats are happiest staying in their own home whilst their owners are away, and I would love to help in maintaining their usual routine to help them to feel safe, relaxed and comfortable. I know how it can feel when leaving your cat in someone else's care and so I would do my best to provide you with reassurance that your cat is happy, safe and well looked after. This would include sending regular updates, photos and messages during each visit. I have a genuine love for cats, and would love to ensure your cat continues to receive the love, attention and care that they deserve during your time away.
“It was an absolute pleasure to meet Jo. She is reliable, friendly and punctual.From the first contact, meet and greet and actual visit all went well and smooth!

“Kirsty was happy to come and check in on my puppy at short notice, and seemed to leave him very happy! We were comfortable having Kirsty in the house, and she seemed great around my dog. I will reach out again if required☺️ We also got loads of photos and very detailed feedback as to what happened during the visit.”

“Another fabulous stay worn Gary for Affie. She absolutely loves being with Gary and pulls like crazy to get in the door. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her. 5 Stars 👍”
“Here’s a warm, polished review you could post: We needed someone to look after Rupert due to a change in our work commitments, and we’re so glad we found Olivia. Olivia was absolutely fantastic with Rupert. It was clear from all the photos and videos that he had an amazing time and really enjoyed spending time with both Olivia and Jasper too! Seeing how happy he was throughout the day gave us complete peace of mind. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and Olivia kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos. They really made me smile during my workday and reassured me that Rupert was having the best time. Thank you so much, Olivia, for taking such great care of Rupert. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Toby loved his first stay and can’t wait to have more, two walks, cuddles and treats. Jordan and her parents are brilliant and Toby was so well looked after. Pictures and updates were fab x”
About: Professional dog walker now for the past 3 years. Dog mummy for 20 years. With a great love for outdoors. I intend to breach out and become a dog behaviourist in the near future. I’m offering dog walking/ sitting/ boarding and daycare. Any questions feel free to contact me :) I’m currently working as a professional dog walker so your pet will fit right in here, if your dog doesn’t like these activities thats fine as I can offer alternatives. I have a fenced garden which your fur baby has full range of. I do professional dog walking also so if your dog is happy with other dogs they will come with us if not that’s fine I also do country park walks. I love local to Colwick woods also Gedling county park so we will go and explore that together. I’m dedicated in helping my clients so if your dog is reactive towards other dogs or extremely bad (pulling) on the lead, I have the time and patience to help break them habits.
“Enola had a fabulous time with Rachel. She was really great at communicating before and during the visit and gave a really detailed update in the report card which I thought was so nice! I’ll definitely be using Rachel again and would really recommend her too 😊”

About: Since being a little girl, I have found so much peace being among animals. I have owned nearly every furry under the sun (dogs, cats, rabbits, guineas, mice, hamsters and more!) and love the unique personality each animal has. I have a soft spot for rescues, most of my pets have been strays and love being able to show them that the world can be a good place with the right people in it! A few years of my working life was spent in a kennels and cattery, and have recently been running a Nature School for children, where we explore and care for wildlife, animals and the world around us. It has been great to pass on my love for the animal world, to the next generation. All ages and stages of life are welcome, from pups and kittens, right through to the OAPs - and the care I offer is tailored to each animal as an individual. I will ensure I follow your instructions and care plan to ensure everyone is as happy as they can be. I've spent my entire life working with animals and children - and yes maybe you do need to be a little crazy to do that! But I do thoroughly enjoy the chaos and pure love they bring everyday. I'd be honoured to care for your beloved pets, and give you peace of mind for when you can't be there. From July, I will be working from home, so can offer the flexibility you desire. I have my children's school run twice a day, so have ample time between 9am and 3.30pm to accommodate your furry friends. I will also be available most evenings for later visits and walks if required. Weekends I can also be flexible. My large car can fit any size dog in, so can drive to green spaces for walks if desired! I have a large tiered garden, consisting of artificial turf, a bark area and decking. The house is a detached 3 bed, with 2 downstairs sitting areas, so your pets have plenty to of space to choose where they feel most comfortable.During warm weather, dogs can access an outdoor animal friendly paddling pool, and our outside space has plenty of trees to provide natural shade and a cooler temperature.
About: Since moving out, I’ve really missed having my family dog around, so I love any opportunity to spend time with a new furry friend! Whether it’s walks, playtime, training, or plenty of cuddles, I’m always happy to give dogs the attention and care they deserve. I work from home most weekdays, which means your dog will have lots of company, supervision, and flexibility in their routine throughout the day. I grew up with dogs and have always been very comfortable understanding their different personalities, needs, and behaviours. I’ve looked after a wide range of breeds and sizes, from small dogs to very large breeds. At the moment I regularly care for a Cockapoo, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and even a Great Dane, so I’m confident handling dogs with very different temperaments and energy levels. I’m patient with puppies and young dogs who are still learning, and I’m happy to reinforce basic training, routines, and good habits. I’m also attentive and gentle with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra care, or medication. Above all, I’m responsible, calm, and genuinely love being around dogs. I’ll always treat your dog like they’re part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after. My home feels far too quiet without a dog around! I currently work from home in a flexible role, allowing me to provide care and attention to pets during weekdays. I can schedule walks/playtime/drop ins during breaks and lunch. I am also available in evenings and at weekends. I provide safety for pets in their own homes by ensuring i have a clear understand of the pets needs and the owner’s instructions. I engage with the pet to build trust and strengthen my bond with them.

About: A Home From Home for Your Dog. Dogs have always been at the heart of my life, and that love shows in the care I provide. Growing up with dogs and horses gave me a strong foundation, and over the years I’ve become the go-to person for trusted, attentive pet care, whether for a day, overnight, or longer. I share my home with Oscar, my sociable Cocker Spaniel, who loves making new friends. I care only for friendly, socialised dogs, so every stay is calm and stress-free. Your dog will be treated like family. In warmer weather I take extra precautions to keep dogs cool, including shaded areas, cooling fans, and a paddling pool for those hot paws. Before any first booking I arrange a meet and greet, so you can see where your dog will be staying and make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. All dogs must be fully vaccinated and up to date with flea and worm treatments. Day care and overnight boarding available. Get in touch to arrange a meet and greet. Daycare drop-off and pick-up is between 7am and 7pm. If you need to collect after 7pm, that would move into overnight boarding with a next-morning pick-up, but please ask if you need flexibility. I work from home full time, so your dog gets regular potty breaks and attention throughout the day, and I’m happy to work around their usual routine, including any special care or play needs. My lawned garden is fully fenced and your dog will be supervised at all times. We have great walking options in the village or a short drive away and your dog will always be on a lead when out, unless you give permission for off lead fun. Your dog is welcome to make my home theirs. At night they’ll sleep snuggled in their own bed, with Oscar close by. What to bring: • Bed & blankets • Food (with measurements) & treats • Collar & lead • Any medication or supplements (with timings) Fresh water, bowls and balls are provided, and cuddles are always on offer! Oscar and I look forward to meeting you! 🐾
About: We are a loving happy household. There is myself, husband and our son who is 10. We have a cat called Rey who is 6 years old, she is confident around dogs and best friends with our lovely dog, Spencer who is 4 years old. We would love to welcome dogs into our home to give Spencer some company and give you reassurance that they will be well looked after! I work from home apart from when I have to travel to Manchester every 2 or 3 months for 1 day. We walk Spencer in the evenings and occasionally during a lunch break if he can be bothered! At the weekends we always try and take Spencer with us if go out places, but other than that we are at home and take him for nice walks. We have a large outdoor space which is fully fenced, with even a separate gated garden too. The main garden gate is double locked so no one can access from the drive. When it's not raining the patio doors are open most the time so there is also access to the outside. We have air con for when it's really hot and allow access to every room and sofa!
About: I have years of experience looking after pets, I grew up around cats and dogs and even looked after a family friends tortoise when they went on holiday. Nowadays I have my own cat and dog who I love and take care of every aspect of their lives, from playtime, walkies, litter trays, feeding, and administering medication. I also have experience working on a farm and assisting with looking after the farmyard animals and am attuned to their unique needs and feeding schedules. I am currently studying at university full time so I have plenty of free time to help with walks or check-ins. I keep my calendar up to date and on my days off and weekends I am flexible I take your guidelines very seriously and your pets safety is my priority. I will ensure that your dog is kept on the lead at all times and maintain good road safety. I make sure to keep them away from other dogs. I will ensure there are no escape routes from the garden when letting your cat/dog outside and that the house is secure so they cannot get into rooms they shouldn’t have access to. I keep your pets in my sight at all times and can provide updates for you.

About: I've always had cats and dogs growing up in my parent’s house and currently own a ginger tabby girl called Pili🐈. Me and my husband adopted her when she was 4 years old, she was coming from a home where she was regularly abused physically and didn't have a lot of trust in people. She has spent the first 2 weeks hiding under our bed and crying through the night but during these 7 years years I've had her she learned to trust again and she is the most loving and caring cat. I have a lot of experience with cats, I treat them with love and patience, and can also administer medication if needed. I'm currently in maternity leave so I’m flexible with visits whenever you need.
About: Hi I am the proud foster Mummy to a lovely tabby cat called Charlotte. She is my world ♡ Charlotte got lost at Skegness a while back for 27 days, but after a lot of hard work, tears and sleepless nights I found her and she was brought safely back home. I look forward to meeting you and looking after your fur babies when you and they need some extra help with lots of fuss and cuddles xx Any of my friends can tell you I adore cats. I always carry around a packet of cat treats in my car as I'm driving around for work providing social care rehabilitation in the community, just incase I see any feline friends on my travels. I have a full DBS check and will promise to give your little one(s) as much love, care and attention as I do my own. One thing I love about my job is the opportunity to meet new people and their pets :) I live in Mapperley and have my own car so I can travel a little further afield. I have experience administering medications onto food and applying eye drops. I'm not confident in giving oral medications or injections, but if shown I'm sure I will be fine :) I can do drop in visits for your fur babies at your own home so your cat feels comfortable in their own surroundings or I can look after them at my property. I am already a registered cat sitter on Cat in a flat.
“Rebecca is the best! She’s got great communication, punctual, follows all the instructions and makes sure your pet is very well looked after! Rebecca sent lots of photos and went above and beyond. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking her again! Sprout loved meeting you, thank you x”
“Emma has been absolutely fantastic, we were nervous about introducing our dog to new people to walk him. They were amazing at building a relationship with Loki and going at his pace. They've helped him build his confidence and been incredibly supportive to me as a new dog owner. Couldn't recommend highly enough.”
“Odeta is clearly a true dog person - she was fantastic with JoJo! Very experienced, with great communication and a solid understanding of the needs of reactive and larger dogs. We felt really reassured leaving JoJo in her care. Highly recommend to anyone.”
About: Since being a little girl, I have found so much peace being among animals. I have owned nearly every furry under the sun (dogs, cats, rabbits, guineas, mice, hamsters and more!) and love the unique personality each animal has. I have a soft spot for rescues, most of my pets have been strays and love being able to show them that the world can be a good place with the right people in it! A few years of my working life was spent in a kennels and cattery, and have recently been running a Nature School for children, where we explore and care for wildlife, animals and the world around us. It has been great to pass on my love for the animal world, to the next generation. All ages and stages of life are welcome, from pups and kittens, right through to the OAPs - and the care I offer is tailored to each animal as an individual. I will ensure I follow your instructions and care plan to ensure everyone is as happy as they can be. I've spent my entire life working with animals and children - and yes maybe you do need to be a little crazy to do that! But I do thoroughly enjoy the chaos and pure love they bring everyday. I'd be honoured to care for your beloved pets, and give you peace of mind for when you can't be there. From July, I will be working from home, so can offer the flexibility you desire. I have my children's school run twice a day, so have ample time between 9am and 3.30pm to accommodate your furry friends. I will also be available most evenings for later visits and walks if required. Weekends I can also be flexible. My large car can fit any size dog in, so can drive to green spaces for walks if desired! I have a large tiered garden, consisting of artificial turf, a bark area and decking. The house is a detached 3 bed, with 2 downstairs sitting areas, so your pets have plenty to of space to choose where they feel most comfortable.During warm weather, dogs can access an outdoor animal friendly paddling pool, and our outside space has plenty of trees to provide natural shade and a cooler temperature.

About: Since I’ve loved dogs all my life, I’ve read a lot about their behaviours in my spare time. We have one dog and look after other dogs including senior dogs of family and friends, regularly. Both me and my partner Alex have had dogs since we were children. Experience with training dogs and puppies too. We have a large secure garden for roaming and sniffing. We love to go for morning and evening walks every day and there’s a great walking path close by, perfect for dog walks. On the weekends we tend to go to local parks for fresh air whatever the weather! I understand the needs of different types of dogs, whether that’s energy levels, age or personality and cater their day to suit them. It is so important to be that they feel happy and comfortable with us. If your dog needs a loving holiday home with a stable routine for a while, plus a very friendly happy well behaved dog and two children who adore dogs but give them space, then we would love to welcome your fur baby from your home to ours. Please get in touch :) I work from home with opportunity to play, cuddle and look at your fur baby. I have dog called Jasper, who loves to have friends over so will keep your dog company. We love being at home and one of us is always around. A typical day would be a morning sniff and runaround the garden first thing, or walk and then breakfast. Around lunchtime is also treat time and a little play and fuss, 5pm we’re in the kitchen/garden, and it’s playtime before dinner for dogs as and when adjusted to their needs. Finishing the day with an after dinner walk and snuggles on the sofa. I have a large fenced garden to keep your dogs safe, with my dog loving company. I can happily crate your dog if needed. We have a few areas downstairs if dogs would like their own time/ sleep without being disturbed too.
“Used Rachel again after she had Patch for the day and he had a great time.

Rachel is such an enthusiastic person about dogs and couldn’t ask for a better service.”

About: My boyfriend and I both grew up with family dogs, and ever since moving in together had our own dog. We trained her via doggy school since she was a little pup and took her on many adventures that went as far as moving to the UK with her. We regularly looked after our families dogs as well when they went away on holiday. We unfortunately had to say goodbye to our little girl recently due to age. While we are looking for our next sweetheart, we have an abundance of love, walks and empty spots on the sofa for your furry friend! I work from home, but I occasionally have to travel for work and my partner is only 10 minutes away - both with flexible hours. This allows us to plan our days around your dogs needs! We live less then a minute walk from a big park and can easily go for multiple walks a day if they’re up to it. We also have a fully enclosed garden with space for running around. We’re flexible with your dogs needs, whether they require a crate to sleep in, prefer to sleep on the couch or on their doggy bed, just let us know. Near the end of her life, our dog became blind with different health issues. Going through this gives us experience to also take care of (senior) dogs who have a complex medical history. We have full flexibility for how we plan our working days. Whether we wake up early to go for a walk before breakfast, use our lunch break, or swap our evening sports for a long walk, we will adjust based on your dogs usual routine. With our enclosed garden, there’s plenty of playtime opportunities as well! In the weekend, we are able to make sure one of us is at home for most of the day if required. The garden is spacious and dog friendly. The house has enough room to place the dog’s personal bed or crate if needed. They are more then welcome to join us (and sleep) on our sofa as well. Feeding and walking are arranged to what they are used to, no matter how many times a day. Different medical routines are easily incorporated - experience with eye drops as well as regular pills.
About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable animal lover and proud dog owner. I have a female Cockapoo called Maeve who is spayed and has a wonderful personality. She’s energetic, playful, cuddly, and loves meeting other dogs. One of the reasons I’m excited to offer pet sitting is that I’d love for Maeve to make more doggy friends. While I’d love a second dog one day, I can’t commit to one just yet, so Rover is the perfect way to spend more time with amazing dogs while giving them a safe, loving environment. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, as I would want the very best care for Maeve when she’s with someone else. I will treat your dog like one of my own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, affection, and care tailored to their individual needs and routine. I work from home so your pups will never be alone for long periods of time, and theres lots of fields near me for our pups to run and play!

I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member and giving them a fun, safe, and loving home away from home! - full DBS 📄 I work from home, which means I can provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day.

“Thank you so much, we had a great experience with Eleanor! They followed Eddie's medication instructions carefully and kept us updated, which gave us a real peace of mind while we were away! They were also very flexible with Eddie's sleeping arrangements and made sure he was comfortable and settled in his usual routine. It was clear they treated him like their own, we came home to a happy and well cared for doggie and would absolutely book them again 😁”
“Edwina (and partner) were absolutely brilliant. Smooth and regular communication throughout the whole process. And Django was very relaxed in their house! Would recommend to anyone!”
About: Your dog will be apart of our loving family with lots of cuddles, playtime, walks & treats (if aloud by owner) When we look after your beloved dog we will ensure their needs are put first. Unfortunately, we lost our bulldog Bonnie recently and this has given us the passion and desire to look after other peoples dogs. We always found this difficult and a challenge knowing who to trust with Bonnie and my goal is to help others feel at ease. We as a family have experience being around a variety of breeds including young & old dogs. I currently work full-time in the community, however I work from home majority of the working week. Also, if I am not home my mum is at home as she only works part-time. At the weekends everybody in the house is home. Your dog will not be on their own longer than a couple of hours at a time. I have a private secure back garden where dogs will have access to safely and securely. I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I am honest, trustworthy and have a genuine love & care for animals especially dogs!

Thank you again for Rufus’s great time, he literally didn't move last night and snoring was included ?, that's how much of a fab time he had. You will be seeing us again!! ❤️”
“Patrycja was amazing! Leo had the best time away. Patrycja kept me updated all the time and sent photos of Leo with him smiling in every picture. Leo had plenty of walks and seemed very comfortable. Will deffo be using Patrycja again ❤️”
“I can never ask for more. Pui Yan took complete care of Luca, she even trained him few tricks. She made food for him, trimmed his long nails and updated me frequently. Luca enjoyed company for Zero and he missed him when I bought him back to my home. I completely felt secured when I left Luca with Pui and I’ll do it next time. :)”
