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, 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! 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. 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 is amazing! She always keeps me well informed so I never feel unaware of what’s going on. She’s great with Aiko always catering to her needs, like another member of the family. Definitely recommend Sheena, have no doubts she will take great care of your baby like she did mine ❤️”
“Leah was absolutely fantastic, Willow was super happy to stay. I was nervous about leaving her for the first time but Leah made me feel super confident! I was updated regularly and had photos too!”
“Blossom looked like she had an amazing time with Manuela! Got lots of videos updated us on how blossom was doing. Amazed she even excited to see you with how much fun she looked to be having 😂 First time using a pet sitter and not a family member to look after blossom and Manu made us feel like we could relax and not worry about blossom! Made our wedding weekend special knowing blossom was being looked after so well, allowed us to enjoy our special day. Would 100% Manu to anyone and will be using her services again ☺️”
“Can't speak highly enough of Gary and the care he shows towards your dog. The attention to detail is incredible and the surroundings he provides is perfect. It is clear to see that your dog is very well cared for and will have no hesitation leave Cody with Gary again. Thank you”
“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!”
About: Hey, I’m Dan! My wife, Danielle, and I are lifelong dog lovers and the proud pawrents of Wilbur, our 4yo Goldendoodle. He is incredibly friendly, full of life, and loves making new furry friends! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family had everything from Westies to German Shepherds, so I’m entirely comfortable with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Why choose us? Experienced Hosts: We regularly look after our friends' and family’s dogs for day care or overnight stays, so hosting other dogs in our home is second nature to us. Incredible Walks: We’re lucky to have gorgeous country and riverside walks right on our doorstep. All 3 of us love being in the outdoors, so we can ensure your dog gets plenty of fresh air and exercise whatever the weather. Safety First: We have access to local enclosed dog fields (paid) if your fur baby needs a safer, secure space to run off lead. We’re happy to cater to individual dogs needs. Your dog will always be treated like one of our own! I’m available most weekends and have plenty of time to fit your dog into my routine, alongside Wilbur. They’ll join us on a long morning walk, usually through the countryside and farmers fields with plenty of space to sniff and play together. During the day there’s plenty of time to play in the house and garden (weather permitting!), and lots of time for an all important snooze before another evening walk. We have a fenced garden with plenty of grass space. Our own dog Wilbur will be more than happy to help look after and make your own dog feel welcome, comfortable and loved!
About: 🐾 About Me Hi! I’m Hayley, and I offer loving, reliable dog boarding and daycare in a safe, calm home environment 🐾 I live with my mum in a pet-friendly maisonette with a fully fenced grass garden — perfect for playtime, toilet breaks, and relaxing outdoors. Between us, we both work hybrid jobs, which means someone is always home all day, every day, so your dog will never be left alone for long periods. We’ve been dog owners and lovers all our lives, and currently have a friendly chihuahua called Peach, who is 10 and very used to having other dogs around. 🐶 Experience I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I share a husky called Clover (2 years old), who I raised from a puppy, so I’m very comfortable with larger, high-energy breeds as well as puppy training and routines. Before that, I had a Westie called George who lived to 14, so I also understand the extra care, patience, and attention that senior dogs need. This mix of experience means I’m confident adapting to different temperaments — whether that’s playful, nervous, energetic, or more relaxed dogs. (I’ll always let you know in advance if Clover is staying, so you can decide what’s best for your dog.) 🐶 What You Can Expect Your dog will be treated like part of the family — not just a guest 💛 I’ll follow your routine as closely as possible, including: Feeding schedules Walk routines Sleep preferences Any little quirks or habits There’s always time for attention, play, and cuddles throughout the day, plus access to our secure garden. 🏡 Home Environment Fully fenced grass garden 🌿 Calm, cosy home setting Someone always home Safe, supervised interactions with other dogs To keep things comfortable in our space, we currently accept small to medium-sized dogs. ❤️ Why Choose Me? Constant supervision — no long periods alone Experience with puppies, seniors & larger breeds Genuine, lifelong dog lovers Safe, enclosed outdoor space Regular updates for peace of mind I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog with someone, so I’m always happy to arrange a meet & greet beforehand. 🐾 Updates & Communication I’ll send regular updates, photos, and little check-ins so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, settled, and well cared for 📸 Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine as both me and my mum work hybrid jobs, meaning someone is always home throughout the day, every day. We already have an established routine with our dog, Peach, who is typically fed at 8am and 5pm, with walks shortly after. However, we’re very happy to adapt this to suit your dog’s usual schedule, whether that’s different feeding times, walk routines, or specific needs. There are plenty of opportunities for garden time, play, and toilet breaks throughout the day, as well as a calm, relaxed environment for dogs who prefer a quieter pace. Your dog will have constant company, supervision, and attention, and will be treated as part of the family. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priority at all times. In our home, dogs are cared for in a calm, secure environment with a fully fenced garden for safe outdoor time. All dogs are supervised, especially when interacting with each other, to make sure everyone feels comfortable and relaxed. I always take time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and any specific needs before their stay, so I can provide care that suits them individually. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, and I’m confident adapting to what each dog needs — whether that’s more play, more rest, or a bit of extra reassurance. Our home is a non-smoking, pet-friendly space where dogs are treated as part of the family. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos, so you always know how your dog is getting on. For everyone’s safety and comfort, I do ask that dogs are friendly with other dogs and comfortable in a home environment.
“Leah and Cameron have looked after my cat twice now, first time for a few days and the recent one was for a whole week. Milo is a very shy cat and is very used to his home environment. Leah and Cameron have gone above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and help him get settled in with them. They have stuck to his diet, played with him and made him a little den so he feels safe. He settled in extremely well with them both and started to get comfortable with them within a few days, he’s been meowing after them for attention and that’s a positive sign he happy. Can’t thank you both enough for everything you both have done for him and won’t hesitate to use them again or recommend to others. See you both soon for cat sitting and thank you so much.”
“Lauren was amazing at looking after Parsley, couldn’t have asked for anything more! We felt super comfortable the entire time knowing that parsley was having a really lovely time. It was so nice to get updates every day! Thank you again!!”
About: I have 20 years + experience of caring for dogs, I am DBS checked and first aid trained ( human). Now I have more time on my hands I would love to care for your pooch. I enjoy taking long walks with my own little fella and love being outdoors. I have experience with puppies, nervous and excitable dogs. I enjoy the socialisation puppy and dog ownership brings and love nothing more than engaging with our dog walking community. I offer short walks, long walks, cuddles, play, interaction with your precious and loyal companions. Whatever the weather you will find me walking my own fur baby, teaching him to talk and having fun. I would love to walk more pooches and give them the attention and love they deserve.
“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.”
“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!”
“Jordan was great, it was Cardi's first time staying away and there were a few snags that Jordan and her mom were amazing and understanding about it. Jordan kept me updated and Cardi was happy to be there! Thank you so much.”
“Maria looked after our nervous dog Peggy at late notice and made her feel at home. Maria was very caring towards Peggy and great at communicating - thank you for giving her a great stay!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was 10 and have always been involved in caring for them. I’ve helped raise and train puppies, including feeding, walking, playtime, and teaching basic routines. As all of my family have dogs, I’m very comfortable around different breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I understand how important it is to give them patience, attention, and care. I currently work full time, but have Thursday and Sundays off with the chance of finishing the rest of the days at 15:30pm. From Thursday to Sunday I can board the dogs from 5pm. I have a large outdoor space at the back of my flat which is perfect for dogs to safely enjoy freedom, playtime, exercise, and relaxation. I will provide a calm, caring, and secure environment where pets feel comfortable and well looked after. We have space in the flat for a crate if this is what your dog needs.
“Absolutely fantastic dog sitters, left my dog at short notice as my previous dog sitter let me down. Communication was brilliant, no problems at all . My dog loved being looked after with you. I cant thank you enough, will definitely use again and highly recommend to anyone who wants a loving home for your dog. The service was 5 star from start to finish. Very lovely people. Thank you”

We would 100% recommend Laura ☺️”
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.
About: As an animal lover and dog mum to two, I know how important it is that your pets are kept happy, healthy and entertained whatever your schedule. I've extensive experience with animals from a young age, having grown up on farms around dogs and horses. Able to offer a range of services to suit your pet's individual needs. I am available monday-friday for dog walking, pet home visits and boarding facilities. At weekends I am available for boarding/sitting. Please contact me to discuss anything outside of these hours as I will always try to be flexible! I have a large fenced garden for dogs to play in and walks will be carried out safely in local countryside and woodland and dogs will never be left unsupervised. Unfortunately I am unable to look after dogs listed on the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991
About: I have been around and taken care of cats for years and understand that they need a wide variety of interaction depending on the cat. I love playing and cuddling with my families cats and have cared for them whilst they were on holiday many times. I am here to provide them with cuddles, play, meals and anything else your cat might need and provide you piece of mind too 🥰
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! 🐾
“Job has been amazing with my 11 week old pup - she’s always on time for her visits in the week, keeps me updated throughout with photos and videos and keeps my mind at ease. I would highly recommend Jo to anyone!”

“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.”
“Susan is a fantastic sitter, and Rudy settled in immediately with her family. She takes time to get to know your dog and to ensure they are comfortable with her gorgeous girl, Poppy! I felt very confident leaving Rudy, and he looked like he had a lovely time! I will definitely be contacting her again!”
“Oscar had a great time today with Sarah and Monty! The weather was hot and they played very nicely together. Sarah was very thoughtful and took Oscar for walks and watched over as they played in the garden. Thank you very much for looking after him.so well.”
“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”
“Its so wonderful having a warm loving home for my darling Lulu to go to when I'm away with work. Odeta is so good with her; Lulu's always so happy to see Odeta when she arrives. Pictures and videos throughout the day assure me Lulu's walked, cuddled, fed, and gets lots of attention and play time. Odetas home will be for sure, a place for Lulu for a long time to come 🙏🥰”
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.

“As a first-time puppy owner, I was very anxious about leaving Frankie for the day since it was his first time away from home. However, Laura’s incredible experience, enthusiasm, and genuine love for puppies instantly put me at ease. Knowing he was in such caring hands made all the difference. I couldn’t recommend Laura highly enough—we’ll definitely be coming back!”
“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 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: 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: 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.

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.
About: Currently have gorgoeus golden retriever called Peggy who loves a play date. I can provide stability, fun, rules and routine daily walks. I have a large garden for frequent toiletry requirements. Class me as a holiday home! I currently work from home and enjoy the company of animals. I go for daily walks at 11am and can walk multiple times if required. Animals are welcome on all furniture because of equal rights. I have a large garden that is fenced and will not be able to escape. Feeding will not be an issue as Peggy knows the rules.
About: I am a Volunteer foster carer for an animal shelter and have taken care of multiple dogs over the last couple years. My experiences mainly focus on small-mid sized dogs, such as Pomeranian, Bichon, Yorkshire terrier, Staffordshire, Doberman, etc. I have a cat myself so I fully understand dogs’ and cats’ everyday needs, I have the right mindset for understanding their behaviours and am equipped with basic training skills. I’m working part time so am reasonably flexible. I live in NG5 area, but I could travel further as I drive. I’m open to short notice booking too. My partner (who’s also a volunteer foster carer) is home most of the time, although I will be the main carer giver in terms of walking the dog or playing with them. The house has a fenced garden, a spare room for the dog if they prefer, and it’s ideal for dog that doesn’t cope with being alone very well. Except from our bed, doggies are welcome in all around the household.
About: I've grown up around dogs all my life and they've always been part of my family. While I haven't owned a dog myself as an adult, I regularly care for my sister's dog, both in her home and in my own flat, so I'm comfortable with day-to-day routines, walks, feeding, playtime and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I work remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for pets. This means I can accommodate daytime walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules and toilet breaks, rather than being limited to mornings and evenings. For dogs boarding with me, they will have company for most of the day and won't be left alone for long periods. I can provide regular walks, playtime and attention alongside maintaining their usual routine. I'm also available for house sitting and can work remotely from your home, allowing me to spend more time with your pet and minimize disruption to their normal environment and schedule. Your pet's safety, comfort and wellbeing are my top priorities. I live in a first-floor flat in a quiet area and take care to provide a calm and safe environment for any dog in my care. Although I do not have a garden, I live next to a canal, with plenty of nearby green space and walking routes, making it easy to provide regular exercise, enrichment and outdoor time throughout the day. As I work remotely, I am able to keep a close eye on pets in my care and ensure they receive plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I will always follow your instructions carefully to help them feel settled, happy and secure while you're away. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind that your pet is being well looked after.

“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.”
“Rebecca has done an amazing job walking and checking on our dog Selma for us, felt like we could really trust her and she seemed to totally have things in hand. Really happy and appreciative 👍”
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.

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.

“Odeta has done a fantastic job looking after Rita while out on walks. She has taken great care to make sure the dog is safe in the surrounding, and paid great attention to what the dog needs while out. Rita can be very energetic but this hasn’t fazed Odeta, who seems very comfortable with dogs. She’s easy to communicate with and keeps us informed while out by sending lots of pictures and videos. Would highly recommend her.”
About: I've always loved being a pet owner, my current cat Cassius is 13 years old and is getting quite fussy in his old age! I started caring for other people's animals a few years ago including a beautiful Golden Doodle and a gorgeous Jack Russell and a couple of fab kitty cats. Recently I took care of a sick cat, administering meds 3 times a day while her owners went away, I'm pleased to say she recovered fully. I Really enjoy pet sitting and dog walking and am happy to stay in the owners house and keep the property and animals secure. I currently work for myself making and selling ceramics at craft fairs and outlets and find that the pet sitting is a good way to supplement my income as I can hand sculpt at the kitchen table wherever I am! I am very concious of keeping the pets safe and ask for detailed info of how the dogs are on and off the lead and if they have anything that spooks them or any allergy. I make sure they have regular food and exercise and of course a good dose of love and affection😍

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, 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! 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. 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.
“Leah was absolutely fantastic, Willow was super happy to stay. I was nervous about leaving her for the first time but Leah made me feel super confident! I was updated regularly and had photos too!”
“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!”
About: Hey, I’m Dan! My wife, Danielle, and I are lifelong dog lovers and the proud pawrents of Wilbur, our 4yo Goldendoodle. He is incredibly friendly, full of life, and loves making new furry friends! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family had everything from Westies to German Shepherds, so I’m entirely comfortable with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Why choose us? Experienced Hosts: We regularly look after our friends' and family’s dogs for day care or overnight stays, so hosting other dogs in our home is second nature to us. Incredible Walks: We’re lucky to have gorgeous country and riverside walks right on our doorstep. All 3 of us love being in the outdoors, so we can ensure your dog gets plenty of fresh air and exercise whatever the weather. Safety First: We have access to local enclosed dog fields (paid) if your fur baby needs a safer, secure space to run off lead. We’re happy to cater to individual dogs needs. Your dog will always be treated like one of our own! I’m available most weekends and have plenty of time to fit your dog into my routine, alongside Wilbur. They’ll join us on a long morning walk, usually through the countryside and farmers fields with plenty of space to sniff and play together. During the day there’s plenty of time to play in the house and garden (weather permitting!), and lots of time for an all important snooze before another evening walk. We have a fenced garden with plenty of grass space. Our own dog Wilbur will be more than happy to help look after and make your own dog feel welcome, comfortable and loved!
“Lauren was amazing at looking after Parsley, couldn’t have asked for anything more! We felt super comfortable the entire time knowing that parsley was having a really lovely time. It was so nice to get updates every day! Thank you again!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Jordan was great, it was Cardi's first time staying away and there were a few snags that Jordan and her mom were amazing and understanding about it. Jordan kept me updated and Cardi was happy to be there! Thank you so much.”
“Odetta was the best dog sitter and boarder. She looked after Raven and Oscar with such care abd skill we will be using her again. The dogs were so happy, well exercised and well cared for. Thank you so much !”
“Susan took great care of my fur baby Alfie whilst we attended a party in Farndon for the evening and she was so loving and caring towards him. Alfie has separation anxiety so she ensured he wasn’t left at all and even allowed him to sleep in the bed with her teenage daughter in the night to stick to his usual routine of sleeping in the bed with someone. She sent updates and photos which was really appreciated and put my mind completely at ease that he was receiving the best care. It was evident Susan and her daughter have a true love for dogs and Alfie was completely relaxed staying with them even though we didn’t manage to fit in a meet and greet prior to the stay due to it being such a last minute booking and us living further away. Susan’s Cockapoo was very chilled out and my Alfie had no issues sharing the use of his bed with her lovely pooch. They have a beautiful spacious house and garden and Susan even had a fan running for the dogs in the kitchen as it was during a heat wave that he stayed. I would not hesitate to use Susan for boarding in the future, she is amazing and I would recommend her highly as she treats boarding dogs like she does her own and is very accommodating to their individual needs.”
“This was the first time we have used dog boarding. I was slightly nervous at first as we had a 5 month old Labrador. From our first meeting I felt reassured. Sylvia was professional, welcoming and you could tell she was a real love for dogs. During our trip she sent pictures and let us know that he had settled well. 5 stars isn’t enough we truly are really happy with the care Dexter received and wouldn’t hesitate to use Sylvia in the future.”
“The best pet sitter I have ever hired. It is very clear how much she loves animals and how much mine love her. I never worry while I am away. Reliable, trustworthy, and excellent communications! Thank you, you are more thank 5 stars ! 😍”
“Patrycja was the perfect dog sitter. She gives everything when looking after our springer, taking him on lots of walks, giving him lots of playtime but also relaxing cuddles in the evening. Her set up is well suited for dogs of different sizes and needs. She also sends lots of cute photos of our dog! We certainly trust Patrycja to look after our pooch very well.”
“I am extremely pleased with the care Jackson received today, from my initial call and conversation I knew that Jackson would be in safe experienced hands. Throughout the day I was updated with text and photos of Jacksons adventures, and a great one of him having a nap looking all at home and cosy. Exceptional service given.”

“David looked after our cocker spaniel for one night. We had a brilliant experience. Communication was excellent from the start. David asked thoughtful questions and had us complete a form so they could really get to know Saffie which was very reassuring. We also did a trial meet beforehand, which helped Saffie settle and gave us real peace of mind. Saffie was clearly well cared for, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
About: I’ve taken care of a range of different dog breeds ranging from large to small. Some of these dogs have been nervous or reactive to other dogs as well as some with people. :) I am currently completing a PhD focusing on cancer research so I am fairly flexible during the week and available the majority of weekends. I would love to meet your doggies 😊 I have a 6 foot fenced garden all the way around expect for the neighbours which is about 3/4 foot. The garden is fairly big with space to play fetch.
