“Lola had a wonderful stay with Liga and was really made to feel part of the family. She was clearly very settled when we returned to collect her - I wondered if she even wanted to come home! Liga sent regular updates and photos of Lola whilst we were away, which kept our minds at ease during this first time of leaving her. Would absolutely book again! Thank you Liga and family ❤️”
“We could not recommend Abbie highly enough. We have two little dogs, one of which is not dog friendly. We were a week and a half away from going abroad for our wedding and were truly concerned we weren’t going to find anyone willing to take on our little handful but Abbie was so kind, took time out of her day to meet with us twice to ensure her dog and our dogs were fine, and then cared for our dogs as if they were her own. She send lovely videos and photos from their adventures on walks and sunset bbq’s and Bo came back happy that he hadn’t just made friends with Abbie’s little dog Bumble, but two large hound pups that I would never have believe Bo would tolerate. She saved our bacon and we are so happy we have her now for future holidays when we need the dogs to have a home from home x”

I aim to provide a calm, caring environment where your pet can feel at home while you’re away 🐾
“Hunny had a great time with Lottie over the weekend. They went on nice long walks and she came back very worn out 😅. She was very quick to reply to messages. I would have liked more photos/communication during her stay but also I didn't ask! Over all happy and would book again :)”
“Wilf had and amazing time at Alice's again! Plenty of playing outdoors with other dogs and early morning walks. I'm sure Wilf is looking forward to his next stay at Alice's! Thanks again!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Mara, while she house sat and looked after our two cats for a couple of nights. From the start, she was friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with, which immediately put us at ease. She took excellent care of our cats, making sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and given plenty of attention. It was clear they were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says a lot. She also treated our home with great respect and left everything clean and tidy. We really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away it made a big difference knowing everything was going so well. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and we’d be very happy to have her back again in the future.”
“Could not recommend Gemesia more highly! She cared for our two cats for 10 days and was flexible, professional, kind and caring, especially when we discovered just before our trip that one of our cats is seriously ill. She took caring for him and his brother in her stride & sent us regular updates, photos & videos which eased our anxiety enormously”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs (and cats). I’ve had dogs since I was 9 years old (a lovely English Springer Spaniel) and a very boisterous Cocker Spaniel named Lola. I’ve been exposed to dogs my whole life surrounded by family and have encountered pretty much every situation imaginable. I’m currently working full time in Coventry as a Lettings Negotiator for Bairstow Eves, however will be free on any weekend if booked enough in advance I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritise their safety, comfort, and routine. In my home or a pet owner’s home, I make sure the environment is calm, clean, and secure, removing any hazards and ensuring doors, gates, and food areas are safe at all times. I’m very attentive to a pet’s behaviour and body language and will always act quickly if something seems off. I also keep owners regularly updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident and relaxed while their pet is in my care.
About: I have looked after pets for roughly 15 years, from cats and dogs of all sizes. Also experienced with smaller exotic pets including hedgehogs and hamsters. Experience with puppy training both my own and family pets, be this with basic commands, toilet training, learning to walk to heel or recall. Further experience with elderly dogs through my own. Able to accommodate any requirements. Our team are 2 adults, one works from home full time, the other onshift ususally nights. Available all hours to accommodate any animal requirements from people who love to be around them. Able to work around the owners schedule to fit whatever they need. Most important thing is making sure the pets we look after are safe and comfortable. Animals wouldn't be left unattended as we know what they can get up to when a back is turned. Any details or instructions provided by the owner will be strictly followed as making sure their pets are as safe and comfortable as possible is our number one priority.

“Hannah is so amazing with Angie! She gave Angie treasure hunts to keep her busy, a lovely walk and naps in the afternoon sun! Needless to say Angie was reluctant to leave 😅 we will definitely be using Hannah again!”
“Cordelia has looked after our dog Dino since his first overnight stay at 16 weeks old. I was quite nervous to leave him when he was so young, but I had no need to worry. We had a meet and greet with Cordelia and her dogs ahead of Dino’s stay and I felt confident that he was in safe hands. I received messages and photos throughout his stay and he had the best time! Since then, Dino has had many day visits with Cordelia and I would highly recommend her to all. Dino always has the most wonderful time and I can see it does him a lot of good to have a proper dog day with his pals!”

About: I’m Kiera, As a dachshund owner myself, I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and understood. I have experience with all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, and I tailor every walk to your pet’s needs. My background in care work has given me patience, attention to detail, and the ability to handle special requirements confidently. Your pet’s happiness and wellbeing are always my top priority. I currently work two days a week as a Maternity Support Worker, but I have plenty of flexibility with my shifts to fit in walks and pet care. My goal is to build my client base so I can dedicate even more time to caring for your furry friends. Message me with dates and I’ll try my best to always help As a proud owner of two miniature dachshunds, I know just how important it is to understand each dog’s unique needs — especially those with big personalities in small bodies! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I follow their routines closely, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I provide regular walks tailored to their energy levels, playtime to keep their minds active, and plenty of affection.

About: Fun walks, plenty of cuddles, and genuine companionship. I build trust with every dog I meet. Fully insured, DBS checked, and Canine First Aid trained. I’ve had animals all my life, but I’m especially lucky to have my beautiful working Labradors, who are my best friends. I have been breeding Labradors for 25 years, so I know the breed inside and out. I’m also a capable dog trainer, and my dogs are truly my happy place. When I look after other dogs, I care for them as if they were my own, ensuring all their needs are met. I adore all four-legged friends and love bringing fun and positive energy into their everyday routine while maintaining good behaviour and structure. Whether it’s a long walk, a playful game, or just some calm companionship, I aim to make every dog feel happy, safe, and loved. Pet care is my full-time job, so my days are planned around the dogs rather than fitting them around another career. Every day includes walks, play, enrichment, rest and plenty of love and attention. I am home for most of the day, allowing me to provide consistent care and companionship. Before any boarding stay, I always arrange a meet and greet or trial to make sure we're the right fit and that every dog is happy and comfortable. I care for every dog as if they were one of my own. Dogs stay in my family home alongside my friendly Labradors and enjoy secure outdoor spaces, including a fully enclosed play yard, freedom field, countryside walks and plenty of indoor comforts. I only accept dogs that are well matched to my own dogs and each other, creating a calm and happy environment. I'm fully licensed, fully insured, DBS checked and canine first aid trained, and I keep owners updated with regular photos and messages so they know their dog is safe, settled and having the best holiday.
“Bron has tried 3 different daycares and all said he was stressed / panting / crying etc. He absolutely LOVED it at Liga’s house and has had the best day playing with Indy and Marley! Liga kept me updated with photos, videos and texts. Very much looking forward to booking him back in for another day of fun!! 🖤”
“Kathryn was absolutely amazing with Barney, taking him on interesting off lead walks. She was reliable and also very accommodating when I had to stay at work for a meeting one day. I would definitely recommend Kathryn to anyone needing doggy daycare. Thanks Kathryn x”
About: 🐾 Hello Katie from Nature Paws! I am located in Six Hills, Leicestershire. I am a natural caregiver and adore dogs. I worked for over 10 years for Mars Petcare so have a strong connection to dogs and the care they need. I have looked after family and friends dogs. I live in the Leicestershire countryside in a beautiful barn conversion. I work from home so get out and about. Your dog will enjoy 1-1 care if they come to stay and be loved, cared for and nurtured as if they were my own. For dog walking I will visit the following villages for walking Barrow Upon Soar, Seagrave, Wymeswold, Old Dalby, Grimston, Ragdale, Sileby, Burton on the Wolds, Thrussington and Rearsby I currently work part time from home and have a flexible schedule. I go out and about frequently. You dog will have attention and care throughout the day I care for dogs in a calm, home-from-home environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. In my spacious countryside barn conversion, dogs have room to explore, rest, and enjoy a peaceful routine with plenty of attention. I stick closely to their usual feeding, walking, and sleeping habits to help them settle in comfortably. For dog walking, I offer gentle, unrushed walks near the dog’s home or in the countryside—always putting their safety and happiness first. I only walk dogs in small groups (or solo if preferred) to ensure individual attention and calm companionship. With a nurturing, family-style approach and over 10 years of pet care experience, your dog is treated like part of the family—because they are.
About: I have two lovely dogs of my own who love having friends dogs to stay. I house and dog sit regularly for friends in the area. My dogs have access to the garden at all times, which is secure and relaxing for them. Your dog(s) will be looked after as instructed, either with mine or apart from them, however best suits your dog(s). I am able to be at home as much as your dog needs, as long as I’m able to go out for approximately 3-4 hours at a time. There will be no long periods with no one home! I have two separate fenced garden areas. And a converted garage which is where my dogs sleep. Your dog will be able to go in there too, or sleep in my kitchen if they prefer.
About: I am a Dog Trainer, with a Level 4 certification. I started my career with dogs volunteering in a Grey Hound Rehome Kennel and then became a Dog Handler in 2020, since then I have completed my Dog Trainer qualification and have trained numerous working dogs in different specialised roles, from Search to Police. I currently own a retired working dog, called Rocco, a 6 year old LabX and a Belgian Malinois, Arya, who is a year old. My dogs are very well behaved and tolerant of all temperaments. They are a playful, high-energy bunch however will respect a dogs space if they are more timid. My daily work as a Dog Trainer includes addressing behavioural cases, from reactivity to human aggression cases and troubleshooting handler issues. I have aided with pet and sport dog owners providing guidance on obedience, tracking and scent-work training. Experienced with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment so can give my full attention to the dogs in my care. I am available weekends and most days with prior confirmation. I have a two bedroom house with an enclosed garden, all fences are 6 ft high other than one side, which is slightly over 3ft and both neighbours either side have dogs. They are friendly, often playing and interacting with my two dogs through the fence. I have space for my dogs to be crated separately from any visiting.
About: I have grown up with pets since the age of 4 such as hamsters, ducks, rabbits, parrots, cats and dogs. I have also been house sitting for various neighbours and take care of their dogs, cats and guinea pigs for the past 10 years. I am currently working freelance so have a very flexible schedule to fit around your needs and availability. I am not afraid of early mornings or late nights if that what it takes to make your pet safe and happy. While I am not able to host pets at my house, if I were to stay at yours, I would ensure that your pet was looked after without disruption to their routine and would be happy to get stuck into any chores.
“I can't recommend Maria enough. Cebru loved his stay. For an anxious boy who's nervous around other people, he seemed to love it. He was well looked after and I got updates throughout the day. He came back one happy boy.”
About: Hi, people call me Remmy! 😊 I have been around dogs and family pets for a long time and have a deep love for all animals. I also own a daschund who is anxious so I understand patience and how to care for smaller dogs. I currently work full time from home on the weekdays, so your dog will have plenty of attention from me! I do not work weekends so fully flexible. I have a fenced garden and live close to fields for dog walks. Winnie loves being around other dogs but she is initally reactive due to her nature (sausage dog problems 😂), it would be great to meet beforehand to get the dogs to meet. I am happy to meet free of charge to see how they get on, I think it's important that you feel your dog is in safe hands before leaving with me.
About: I love all animals but dogs have a special place in my heart ❤️! I have loads experience looking after animals of all kinds. My Dad was a vet and loved to take advantage of the cheap labour opportunity and had me working at his practice on weekends since I was 12! I have experience caring for and entertaining dogs, but also in administering any medication they may be taking. I have a beagle of my own called Freddie, he is very friendly and loves to have other dogs to play with! I work from home during the week so your dog will not be left for any stretch of time. I live in a house with a decent sized garden that is secure and fenced! Happy for any prospective client to come and check my home to see where their dog will be staying or do a pre-meet/walk if they are worried about how their dog will mix with Freddie. Freddie and I go for a walk daily, usually around the local country park… and we would welcome an addition 😊 Living alone and having a dog means I often find myself having to find someone trustworthy to look after my boy. It is never easy to find someone readily available and at a reasonable price. That is what has motivated me to offer my services at a low price. I know how stressful it can be to organise pet care and would love to be able to ease that stress for others so we can all just look forward to a break away 🙂 I work from home. It is a full working day but I am happy to have the dogs in the office with me and do find time to engage and play with my own dog during the day. They do also have the freedom to roam around the house, snooze, or play in the garden. Attached house so no side gates. Garden is fenced and fences are secure and high. If I need to travel with your dog I have safety clips in my car. I also live down a longish driveway so there is no main road immediately nearby. I work from home so I have plenty of opportunity to play with the dogs during the day. Having a dog myself means my routine is relatively unaffected, we just have another dog along with us. I have a fenced garden. Can crate your dog if you bring the crate along with you. Dogs are fed separately. I have spare dog bowls and beds.

About: Hi there! I’m Phoebe, a qualified veterinary nurse of 5 years. I have worked within the veterinary industry for 8 years. As a vet nurse specialising in emergency and critical care, I am dedicated to catering to pets with extra or special needs. I understand the unique conditions and requirements that some pets may have, and I strive to provide the highest level of care to meet those needs. I’ve also had the pleasure of working with the Greyhound Trust, where I learned the importance of compassion and dedication in animal care. Additionally, my time at a boarding kennel has given me hands-on experience with a variety of pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. I’m passionate about providing the best care for your furry friends and look forward to meeting them! My current schedule is 7 days on and 7 days off. So having every other week off means I spend a lot of time at home! During my 7 days on I work from 15:30 - 00:00. I can care for pets during my week when I am working too if this suits your pet’s needs. I have a 3 bedroom property with a garden that has a large fence around it. I myself have two friendly dogs. Introductions will be made to ensure compatibility with pets. While I am happy to accept raw-fed dogs, I am unable to feed them raw food during their stay with me for the safety and comfort of all pets in my care. I kindly request that raw food not be brought into my home. However, I am happy to cater to raw-fed pets in their own home to ensure their needs are met while under my care.

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do, it’s genuinely the thing that makes me happiest. I’ve been pet sitting and providing care for the last four years, but my experience with dogs started long before that. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and honestly can’t imagine life without them in it. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routines and little quirks, and I love getting to know what makes each one unique. Whether your dog is energetic and loves adventures, enjoys long walks and playtime, or is happiest curled up having cuddles and company, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe and loved while they’re with me. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust because they’re family, not just pets. I treat every dog in my care the way I would want someone to treat my own, with patience, attention, affection and genuine care. I truly couldn’t imagine doing anything else. Spending my days around dogs, is what I love the most. I am currently working through a canine care, behaviour and welfare course from home. So I have plenty of time to love and care for your dogs as my main priority. Tell me all about your dog and their routine so I can create a home from home for them to feel safe and welcome and you to feel at ease that your fur baby is being loved and cared for. For me, trust and safety always come first because I understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a huge decision. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in a loving, secure environment where they’ll be cared for as if they were my own. I have four dogs myself, ranging from 4 to 12 years old, and they’ve been around all kinds of dogs over the years. They’re gentle, friendly, playful and have met dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities. They absolutely love making new friends and are great at helping visiting dogs feel welcomed and settled into the home. I live in a small, quiet village surrounded by fields, which means walks and adventures are endless. There’s plenty of space for dogs to explore, enjoy new smells, stretch their legs and simply be dogs. Whether your dog loves exciting walks and discovering new places, or prefers slower strolls taking everything in, there’s always somewhere peaceful and enjoyable for them. My home is full of experience, routine and understanding of dog behaviour. I know that every dog is different — some run in and make themselves at home immediately, while others need a little extra reassurance and time to adjust. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, body language and needs so they always feel safe and supported. More than anything, I aim to create an environment where dogs don’t just stay — they belong. A place where they can play, explore, relax, receive lots of affection and enjoy being part of everyday family life while you have complete peace of mind knowing they’re happy and cared for. 🐾 *i am fully insured*

About: As a lifelong dog enthusiast, I'm the proud parent of a 5-year-old Springer Spaniel and 3-year-old Cocker Spaniel, so I understand the unique energy levels and needs of active breeds. What sets me apart is my commitment to professional development in dog care. I hold a Level 3 Canine First Aid certification through iPET Network, giving pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in capable hands should any situation arise. As an aspiring dog trainer, I'm actively expanding my knowledge and skills in canine behavior and positive reinforcement techniques. My experience spans puppies to senior dogs, and I understand that each dog has unique personality traits, exercise needs, and comfort levels that require a personalized approach. Working as a writer from home gives me exceptional flexibility to accommodate your pet's needs. I set my own hours and can easily adjust my schedule around dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet care sessions.

With my Level 3 Canine First Aid certification, I'm prepared to handle any medical situations that might arise, from minor cuts to more serious emergencies. I always carry a basic first aid kit during walks and visits. For drop-in visits at your home, I respect your space and follow your specific instructions to the letter. I'll maintain your dog's routine, use their familiar toys and feeding equipment, and ensure your home is secure when I leave. I provide detailed updates with photos so you know exactly how your pet is doing.
About: Hi, my name is Sim, I'm 25 years old, I work full time but on shifts so I have a range of availability based upon my shift patterns. I've got experience in sitting and walking different breeds, and I'm a big breed lover having my own 3 at home! (3 German shepherds!) Currently I do occasionally dog sit for friends and family, typically their dogs stay over with my 3 dogs who love having friends over! So what sets me apart from other walkers and sitters? Well, I love dogs, I've had 5 years of experience (on and off), all my dogs have been adopted and rehomed - so I've worked with a variety of different dogs with different needs. Recently fostering a dog for 3 months and got her trained up before she went to her new home which she's succeeding in! I own a car so I'm happy to travel. And with your permission if you leave your dog with me over night or for a few days, I can take them to locations such as the Peak District to get some quality time in, otherwise to the local parks and nature reserves. 😁 I do have a really big garden which is fenced off. If we require use of a create then we can encourage that with your dog, we just request to provide a bed or item that your dog is currently familiar with to keep in the crate if crate time is required, we want to keep the environment as familiar as possible to help reduce anxiety. My house has multiple cameras situated throughout the property, inside and outside for peace of mind. I work full time but I work different shifts weekly but I know what I'm working well in advance, and I have my partner to lend a hand. Large garden fenced off, cameras around the house and the outside the house so we have eyes on the property at all times. But someone will always be home.
“First time I’ve used this app, struck gold with Adam who was fantastic. He arranged a meet and greet with our dog Sammy and stayed an hour. Sammy loved him and Adam came 7 mornings to collect him for a walk whilst I’ve been away. Always on time, had a full report everyday by text including photos. Delighted, I will be using Adam again and would recommend him to all. Thank you so much.”

“Lola had a wonderful stay with Liga and was really made to feel part of the family. She was clearly very settled when we returned to collect her - I wondered if she even wanted to come home! Liga sent regular updates and photos of Lola whilst we were away, which kept our minds at ease during this first time of leaving her. Would absolutely book again! Thank you Liga and family ❤️”
“We could not recommend Abbie highly enough. We have two little dogs, one of which is not dog friendly. We were a week and a half away from going abroad for our wedding and were truly concerned we weren’t going to find anyone willing to take on our little handful but Abbie was so kind, took time out of her day to meet with us twice to ensure her dog and our dogs were fine, and then cared for our dogs as if they were her own. She send lovely videos and photos from their adventures on walks and sunset bbq’s and Bo came back happy that he hadn’t just made friends with Abbie’s little dog Bumble, but two large hound pups that I would never have believe Bo would tolerate. She saved our bacon and we are so happy we have her now for future holidays when we need the dogs to have a home from home x”
