This is the second time I have used Dorothy and once again, she was absolutely fantastic. I could tell she really enjoyed having Kora and could tell Kora really enjoyed her stay. A great sitter, who tailors things to suit you and your pet perfectly. Thanks Dorothy

This was my first time using boarding for my dog as she’s quite nervous but Charys was amazing. She helped my dog get settled right in with plenty of treats and fusses and sent me update messages/pictures. I’d definitely recommend Charys!

Ottie absolutely loves coming to stay at Victorias! She has been a few times now, including a full week, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. We received frequent updates on Otties stay and how she was getting on, we couldn’t have asked for more! Victoria really treated Ottie like one of her own and this made leaving her worry free.

About: I’ve had experience with dogs, especially for the whole of my life. Since I was born, I had grown up around dogs so I know they mannerisms quite well. From a HUGE mutt who loved to chase rabbits and a Feisty jack tussle to a tiny yapping sausage dog I’m capable of either. To ease your mind, I have also studied animal management for two years, and I have a certificate and a diploma to show for it. while I attended I walked a few of the resident dogs who had a wide range of behavioural issues such as reactivity. And lastly, I also worked with a greyhound rescue for awhile so it’s safe to say I am very used to dogs that like to pull! I am working full time so Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, with most Saturdays I will not be free. Unfortunately my schedule is tricky but I’m always willing to find the perfect time to help manage your own busy schedules. For now I’m only going to provide dog walking services around your own area, so I will be driving to you. I will not provide any leads, harnesses or muzzles so please make sure your own dog has the appropriate restraint.

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: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and absolutely love having them as part of the family. Growing up, I had a Labrador who was my best friend and now I have a friendly Golden Cocker Spaniel puppy who loves meeting and playing with other dogs. I live right next to a large field where I take my dog for walks every day, so your pup will have plenty of opportunities for exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply exploring new scents, I’ll make sure they have a fun and enjoyable stay. I work from home on the days I offer pet care, which means your dog will have company throughout the day. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and receiving plenty of attention while you’re away, so I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medication requirements, and any special instructions. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is having a great time. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! Why choose me? * Lifelong dog owner with experience caring for Labradors and Spaniels * Friendly resident Golden Cocker Spaniel for companionship and play * Daily walks in a large nearby field * Work from home, so dogs are rarely left alone * Plenty of love, attention, and regular updates for owners * Happy to accommodate individual routines and needs I work from home so have plenty of time at home to look after your pup. I walk my dog three times a day, morning, lunch and in the evening. But am happy to accompany to your dogs exercise needs. I have a fully fenced garden with grass to explore. I have a golden cocker spaniel who loves other dogs and to play. I also have a crate that can accommodate a cocker spaniel size or smaller if needed. We also have child gates in the house to make sure they are safe.

About: 🐾 I'm a genuine dog lover who has grown up around dogs my whole life, so I'm very comfortable caring for them and understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. 🐾 I love spending time outdoors and enjoy long walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. Whether they love energetic adventures or a gentle stroll, I'm happy to match their pace and make sure they have a great time. 🐾 I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you can trust. I'll treat your dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Along with walks, I'm always happy to provide lots of fuss, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them!), and companionship to help them feel relaxed and loved. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility and availability to provide your dog with the time, care, and attention they deserve. I love being outdoors and regularly go on walks, so your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise, fresh air, and companionship. Whether it's a longer countryside walk or a stroll around the local area, I'll make sure they're happy, active, and well looked after throughout the day. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home provides a welcoming, relaxed environment where they can feel at ease during their stay. I also have a fully fenced garden, giving dogs a secure outdoor space to stretch their legs, play, and enjoy some fresh air under supervision. Whether they're relaxing indoors or exploring the garden, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for throughout their stay.

I'm so grateful that I found Rory to look after my geriatric cat at quite short notice. She needs a lot of extra help and attention and Rory was so kind, attentive and caring; he went over and above to ensure that Chloe was well cared for, comfortable and reassured. I would highly recommend Rory to care for your precious feline.

Orissa looked after my two Maine Coons while I was on holiday for a few days. This was my first time using rover so I wasn’t really sure what to expect and to be honest I was quite anxious. But after my meet and greet with Orissa, that all changed as she was so lovely to me and the boys and knew exactly what to do right away. While I was away Orissa would regularly send photos and write detailed reports of her visit which were so heartwarming. It reassured me and my partner that the boys were in the best hands. She took care of the boys so well, looking after their food, litter and also our house. When I came back the house was clean and tidy just how we left it. The boys seemed happy too as they had great company and someone to play with. Sometimes they can get lonely on their own so it’s nice to know there’s someone there for them. Overall, Orissa was amazing and would recommend to anyone who needs someone to take care of their furry babies while they’re away.

About: I grew up with cats in the family home, and have also had cats since moving out. I've just finished a long term (10 month) house sit which involved looking after a cat, and previously shared a cat with a housemate. I've done some simple training with cats before, including desensitisation to cat carriers. I've also had to give out oral medication to cats.

About: I’ve had cats all my life including 3 outdoor cats when I lived with my parents, and 2 indoor cats now. My indoor cats are beautiful (although I’m biased!) as they are Siamese x ragdoll but this also means they’re very chatty and very needy. I’m always up for playing with them and fussing them and they know loads of tricks including: sit, stand, spin, paw, fist bump… the list goes on! They’re also fully harness trained and able to go for walks. So I am fully equipped for whatever set up you and your pets have :)

I'm happy to look after your cat while you're away, making sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter tray, and plenty of company and attention. I understand that every cat has their own personality, so I'll take the time to help them feel comfortable, whether they enjoy playing, being stroked, or simply having someone nearby. My aim is to make sure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for until you return.

About: I used to do agility training with my older dog. I'm also used to dealing with nervous dogs, who sound aggressive. I've helped in training my dogs for commands like sit, along with teaching them to move out of way and some tricks such as paw. I'm currently studying a full time uni course, with in person lectures on Wednesdays and Thursdays, so I have a lot of availability to take care of your dogs I will communicate well with the owner and follow their guidance by asking how they take care of their pet and replicate that because every pet is different. I will walk the dog on the lead, unless I am certain it will come back to me and I am in an enclosed area.

I had the feeling that all would be good from our initial meeting as Victoria was very friendly and relaxed. Monty enjoyed his first playdate without me today and I appreciated the photos and messages from Victoria. All went well and I have booked a four night stay for Monty whilst we're at a wedding!

Nala had a fantastic time with Pamela. Pamela was very welcoming & took time to get all the vital information regarding Nala prior to the daycare. I was kept informed with pictures on how Nala was throughout the day which was very reassuring. Nala was a very tired happy dog on my return. I would definitely ask Pamela again to take care of Nala.

Milo had a great stay with Sophie, Quinn and Dotty. Sophie was really good with Milo, she took time to meet him before his stay so he would feel more settled when he was dropped off. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and gave Eva and I lots of really good tips and advice about treats, food, grooming and dog toys and good places to shop for them. During the stay she kept us updated with messages and pictures which is always nice to see thats he's in good hands and having a great time. Milo really enjoyed his stay and will be back again.

I spent countless hours searching for someone with real experience handling working dogs, as we have a Border Collie, and it was so important to find the right fit. From the moment I met Dorothy at our meet and greet, I knew she was the one. Enzo absolutely fell in love with her and had such an amazing time during his doggy day care stay. I was looking for a true “home away from home” for him, and that’s exactly what Dorothy provides. She is incredibly knowledgeable, gentle, and patient—her experience really shines through in the way she cares for the dogs. I honestly couldn’t be happier and feel so reassured knowing Enzo is in such great hands.

About: After a health scare & with my boys being much older now, I completed an Animal Care course to gain additional knowledge in animal care. I had a Westie for 16 years & now have a Havachon that we have had for 10 years now. I have built up a good sized portfolio of regular dogs & cats through BARK providing walks, pop ins & stays. *Additional customer reviews can be found on BARK. I am available in the week to walk & the week/weekend to provide pop in visits & day stays at my house. I do go over to France four times per year as we have a small house out there, but this would be discussed with the pet owners. I am offering dog walking, pop ins & day visits to my house. I have a large house & a good sized garden which is fenced & gated with no way to escape. I take my own dog Lola over to another village where there is a lovely long lane where we walk. I have now built up a good sized client base & so I would plan accordingly with your dog or cat & my regular clients.

Andreia is excellent. Our dogs are always delighted to see her and she is really good with them. She is also completely reliable. Despite having injured her ankle on the morning of dog sitting for us, when she could reasonably have cancelled, she contacted us to explain and still came to complete the visit. I recommend her wholeheartedly.

About: I have experiences of a whole variety of pets. I’ve been around dogs since I was a small child and have walked and sat for: beagles, labradors, west highland terriers, Irish terriers, schitzus, spaniels, schnauzers, sheep dogs, and the list goes on! I have two cats of my own who are beautiful (but obviously I’m biased!). They’re Siamese x ragdoll so very chatty and very needy. They can do lots of tricks including sit, spin, stand, paw, fist bump… I’ve certainly put my psychology training to good use! I’ve also had cats all my life so I’m very familiar with this, too, whether that’s indoor cats or outdoor cats! I also have lots of experience with pet rats as well as chinchillas and have regularly house sat and done check ins for these animals too :) I nearly always work from home and love the company of pets for house sitting, but also love to get out and go for walks - even better if I can do that with a dog or cat! I have experience of a whole variety of different environments and animals. I’ve worked with dogs who get on well with other dogs and also hate other dogs, and also dogs with anxiety and who are very nervous. I’ve also looked after both indoor and outdoor cats in a variety of settings so can easily adapt to you and your pets needs as you see fit :)

About: I like to board animals from one household at a time, providing a luxury service that your pet/pets will appreciate and love! All dogs that had been sharing their days with us, repeat the experience and wag their tails every time they come back! We have the best reviews on Facebook too! After studying animal management and dog-feline behaviour, I worked for many years with big cats as an ecologist. Since then, I worked in different areas of animal welfare feral animals and my favourite; wildlife rehabilitation. I have many years of experience caring for various species while working in the RSPCA and as part of other NGOs around the globe. For the past few years, I have been teaching about animal welfare, animal husbandry and ecology. My expertise focuses on behaviourally challenged cats and dogs as well as caring for different species and life stages (puppy to geriatric) and specific medical conditions (administration of medication). I love meeting the owners and the animals first to break the ice and make a connection! I work from home so, I have plenty of time for socialising and playing outdoors and a lot of love, care and fuss for your babies😍. I have a huge garden where we exercise from the geriatric dogs to the most active ones. This is needed, as we do not let any dogs off the lead when we take them for long walks, for security reasons.

About: I've always loved animals, and am an ex-zookeeper who specialised in large hoofstock. I have a lot of experience with smaller animals too, I volunteered for 18 months with a rabbit rescue centre, a year with the Blue Cross volunteering in their cattery and I've previously walked dogs and done some dog sitting casually and as a short term job. I have a degree in Animal Behaviour and Welfare and as part of my degree I learnt a lot about companion animal behaviour, and have done some dog training before. I have also done a lot of positive reinforcement training at work, though with a lot bigger animals! I'm a reliable, responsible and friendly person who is well organised and loves animals. I would love to look after your dog, cat, rabbit or smaller/larger pet! I'm currently free all the time, in September I will be starting a Masters degree and will have to work around lectures, though will only be at University for two days a week. I am a very reliable and responsible person, who takes the safety and health of pets very seriously. I am used to doing constant checks of animal health and wellbeing as part of my job. I love to spend time with animals and enjoy playing with all types of pets.

About: I am definitely a dog person, having had dogs for the last twenty years, The first dog of my married life came from the Dogs Trust when it was NCDL, so that shows how long I have had dogs. All of my furry friends have been a rescue of some kind so i am happy to work with the more 'challenged' doggies. Personally, I am semi-retired, and have had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. The family would be lost without our furry friend. Dogs have always had the run of the houses, but can accommodate any cages if needed, younger dogs have always been caged at night to start with. A large garden, and located next to far reaching fields which is enough for even the most energetic of furry friends. Operating a twice daily feed (after walks) and love giving meaty treats to anyone that visits (Human or canine!)

About: What started out as pet sitting for friends and family and now starting to add clients to hopefully one day run my own pet sitting business. I have a love for all animals big and small and experience caring and handling them, from rabbits to horses you name it. I am currently working 4 days a week and looking to become my own boss and come away from this to run a doggy daycare from my own home. I have a 6-foot fence, a tidy garden, and a cosy and welcoming house for your dog to spend his day in while you are at work knowing all their needs are being met.

About: Hi, I'm Sophie! 👋 Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them has become my full-time career as well as my passion. With over 20 years of experience looking after dogs of all ages, breeds and personalities, I've proudly been running my own dog care business full-time for the past year. When your dog stays with me, they become part of the family. My aim is to provide a genuine home-from-home environment where they feel safe, relaxed and loved while you're away. Every dog is different, so I tailor their care to suit their individual needs. Whether they love long woodland walks, playing in the garden, sniffing new places, curling up for cuddles or simply relaxing with company, I ensure their routine is followed as closely as possible. I'm fully insured and committed to providing a calm, structured environment where your dog's welfare always comes first. Their safety, happiness and comfort are my highest priorities. 🐾 Before You Book To help provide the highest standard of care for every dog, please note my operating hours before sending an enquiry. **🐶 Doggy Day Care** • Monday – Friday • Drop off from **7:00am** • **Latest collection: 6:00pm** **🏡 Home Boarding** • Drop off & collection between **8:00am – 6:30pm** • Collections after **6:30pm** will require an additional night's boarding, as your dog will remain in my care into the evening. Thank you for respecting these operating hours. They allow me to give every dog the time, attention and routine they deserve. In My Home Your dog won't be treated like they're in kennels—they'll become part of everyday family life. I provide: • A secure, loving home environment. • Plenty of mental enrichment and play. • Walks appropriate to your dog's age, health and energy levels. • Rest and quiet time when needed. • Regular updates and photos for complete peace of mind. 🚶 Dog Walking I offer both group and solo walks depending on your dog's personality and needs. Walks are designed to be safe, enriching and enjoyable, giving your dog the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need while always putting their welfare first.

About: I absolutely love dogs and welcome any breed and age into my home to make it their home whilst you are away. I have had a range of pets growing up including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and even a duck so I am also able for pop in visits for a wide range of pets! I currently have a 3 year old Cocker Spaniel called Mabel. She is great around other dogs since we regularly look after our friend’s and family’s dogs who range across all different breeds and sizes and she certainly loves the company as much as I do. I can adapt to whatever needs your dog requires and if your dog loves a cuddle then you’ve come to the perfect place 🥰 I promise to send regular pup-dates (if you would like them!) and to love your pooch as much as my own! And of course, plenty of walks are a given! I’m also more than happy to arrange a meet up before you go away should you wish for your pooch to meet me in advance! I work from home so I am around to give your pups plenty of attention during the day. Alternatively I can easily pop in for visits or walks on my lunch break and I am fortunate enough to work flexibly so can ensure they get as long a walk as required. Similarly I can pop in for all other types of pets too! I have a fenced back garden and live near plenty of secure walking spots but can also walk your dog in your local area if you’d prefer. I can also easily crate your dog if required. Regardless of how long I will be looking after your pet I will provide regular updates along with photos so that you can be fully assured that your pet is in great hands!

About: At the dog shelter, I would walk, feed and groom the dogs. I would also spend time with the dogs in their kennels, whilst cleaning their kennels. I’m looking for a side hustle, since at the moment it’s quite difficult finding a part-time job. So my schedule is very flexible and free. I love spending time with any animals, especially dogs, and I enjoy playing with them and trying to teach them new tricks. I’m not easily frightened by dogs and I can understand when a dog needs space, food or a walk.

Whether they love energetic adventures or a gentle stroll, I'm happy to match their pace and make sure they have a great time. 🐾 I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you can trust. I'll treat your dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Along with walks, I'm always happy to provide lots of fuss, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them!), and companionship to help them feel relaxed and loved. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility and availability to provide your dog with the time, care, and attention they deserve. I love being outdoors and regularly go on walks, so your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise, fresh air, and companionship.

About: I used to do agility training with my older dog. I'm also used to dealing with nervous dogs, who sound aggressive. I've helped in training my dogs for commands like sit, along with teaching them to move out of way and some tricks such as paw. I'm currently studying a full time uni course, with in person lectures on Wednesdays and Thursdays, so I have a lot of availability to take care of your dogs I will communicate well with the owner and follow their guidance by asking how they take care of their pet and replicate that because every pet is different. I will walk the dog on the lead, unless I am certain it will come back to me and I am in an enclosed area.

About: I have always cared for animals as my Father was an RSPCA inspector, RAF dog handler and farm worker - So we always had an array of animals to care for at my house. That love for animals has continued as I have had dogs, cats, horses, chickens and sheep all at home. I have been working as a pet sitter a few years now, visiting all different homes to walk, exercise, look after & keep their pets company while their owners are away. My other role as a P/T PA also means I am used to different client requests and I am happy to water plants, collect parcels etc when you are out so just ask! I am highly organised, friendly, helpful and reliable. DBS, insurance and references available. I currently work p/t, so I am available for pet visits and sitting. For regular clients I am also happy to offer last min or emergency visits, as I know what life can throw at us all! I always treat everyones home and pets with love, care and respect - Nothing less will do and nothing is too much trouble. I am an organised perfectionist and always want my clients to know they can count on me while they are away. I also will always plan an initial meet/greet, so we can discuss requirements and I can meet you and your pets. I will go through everything in detail so I am completely clear on what you would like me to do, and I will have a form so I know all medical history, vet details, emergency contacts, feeding schedule, likes/dislikes etc. I always get told when i leave my meet and greets 'Oh I am so relieved, I can go away knowing they are safe and are going to be looked after' Which is what I want my client to feel as that is my job :) I know personally as I have my own animals too and know how i like them and my home to be treated while I am not there.

Thank you so much Antonia for providing Harvey with so much 'home from home' love and doggy attention whilst he has been in your care once again. Your daily 'pupdates' have provided me with great reassurance that my boy is happy and healthy and having a fabulous time with you, so a very big thank you! It is quite clear that Harvey already adores you and feels totally relaxed and at home when he visits. We both look forward to seeing you again soon.

Rebecca was amazing with my boy Nox. She was able to accommodate our last minute request, and was very warm and welcoming from the very beginning. Nox felt poorly during his stay, she did a great job both with keeping the communication going and doing her best to take care of him, she even cooked him a home made meal that wouldn't upset his tummy. Furthermore, she was flexible with pick up times when we went to pick him up early. I would absolutely recommend booking with her, and thank you again Rebecca!

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.
