“Shaun and his family looked after my dog so well - he had a wonderful time. They are very caring and they were very happy to walk and play with my dog. I am very grateful and I will certainly be calling on them again. Thank you!”
“we were very pleased to find Laurie to look after our dog (Toby), first time weve left him with anyone outside of family so we were a bit nervous about it. Laurie was great from the offset, very understanding and attentive to Toby's needs/requirements regarding walks, eating and habits etc. i would definitely recommend Laurie's services and will book with her again when needed, thanks again Laurie”
“Paddy had a lovely time with Sophie & Charlotte, sent us regular updates on Paddy, they have a lovely home which makes your pet feel at home, a lovely couple who we'll definitely be using again & definitely recommend.”
“My husky puppy was instantly at ease with Molly. She is a caring, professional, punctual and trustworthy pet sitter. My usually nervous husky was instantly at ease. Highly recommend.”
“Clear and concise communication from start to finish and super welcoming. Stepped in last minute when we were let down by someone else. Otto looks to have had a fab time from pictures and videos and we will definitely be using Bradley again.”
“This was our first time using a dog sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the start, communication was great, and we got daily updates with pictures and videos of him playing with the other dogs — that put us at ease knowing he was enjoying himself. He came home happy, tired, and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Paige is fab! Betty had a great stay with her, exploring lots of new things and I felt really at ease knowing she was being looked after by someone who has so much love and care for animals. Communication was great, lots of photos/videos. Would definitely recommend.”
“Daisy had a great weekend with Tom. We were a little apprehensive as she's so timid but she settled right in so we knew she was well looked after. Tom kept in touch with updates and photos which was great. We're definitely happy to use Tom again.”
“Hannah was great with our dogs. We left our yorkie cross and saluki cross with Hannah for 2 weeks. She rescued our holiday at the last minute when our previous dog sitter cancelled. They have come home very happy, healthy and totally exhausted from good exercise. They have been very well looked after which is not an easy task with 2 very different dogs.”
“Mango had the best time and was well looked after. We received updates and pictures and if dogs could smile Mango certainly was! The setup is perfect for dogs with a secure fence and perfect for dog walks. It made us feel a little less guilty for having a night away without her. We could relax knowing she was in safe hands. Would definitely recommend and will be rebooking in the future if we are in the area.”
“Alice was great with Wilf. We had a meet and greet first, then Wilf stayed for an overnight. There's plenty of room, a very large garden and lots of land. Wilf had walks and played with Alice's dog. He came back very tired! We'll certainly be using Alice again.”
“Thank you so much for looking after my dog. You always kept us updated with photos of how she was doing, which gave us great peace of mind. Seeing how happy and well cared for she was made us feel so reassured while we were away. We could tell she was in great hands, and we’re very grateful for the love and attention you gave her. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Cuba was very happy with Laura and came home full of herself! When our return plans changed, Laura was very accommodating and understanding. Cuba is booked in with Laura again and I have no hesitation in recommending her.”

About: Hello 😊 We are Angela and Charlie, a couple offering a caring and reliable cat sitting service in Wymondham and nearby areas. We have both grown up surrounded by animals, which has given us a natural understanding of their behaviour, needs, and personalities from an early age 🐾 We currently have a very friendly Ragdoll of our own, which allows us to experience daily care, routines, and bonding in a very hands-on way. Over the past few years, we have regularly cared for friends’ and family’s cats in both their homes and ours, gaining experience with a wide range of temperaments, including shy, playful, and more independent cats. I work from home, which means I can provide constant companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. We are calm, reliable, and highly attentive to detail, always adapting our care to each cat’s personality and routine. Above all, we treat every cat as if they were part of our own casa 🏡💛
“As our cats can be very timid around people they don’t know, we were worried about how they would cope when we went away for a short break. Magdalena was great with our cats, she took time to make sure they were all okay and kept us informed throughout each visit, she also made sure that we had photos as well. Would definitely book Magdalena again.”
About: I’m Reese, 19 and absolutely adore animals, cats in particular! I own 3 cats ages 3-12 and I have had cats my whole life! I currently work in education so am looking for a small job doing something I love on the side! I have a full DBS check as I currently work in education. I can also drive and have a car so happy to travel wherever!
“Leanne was great with my cats, they can be very timid so she made sure they were all ok at each visit. It made it so much easier to go away and enjoy my holiday knowing the cats would be well looked after. Easy no fuss booking, 5 Star service, would definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve had cats all my life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routines, and boundaries, and I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. From playful kittens to older senior cats who need a gentler approach, I’m confident adapting to each cat’s individual needs.
About: Hello there! My name is Cara (mummy), together with my 10 year old son, Joey we spend our time exploring quirky little places all over the world. Check us out @aroundtheworldinlittlesteps if you want to find out about us more. I currently work remotely as an online tutor, but I love languages and art and nature. I are big animal lovers and have always had them in our lives. Although exploring new places means we can't have a furry family member full time, I have looked after dogs, cats. I rescued a dog and 5 kittens from the streets of Brazil when living there last year and successfully re-homed them. I'll will be sure to update you with lots of pictures. Being outdoors is my favourite hobby and sharing that experience together with an animal is something I thrive on. Looking forward to meeting you and you furry/ or not animal family members soon! Cara
“Deanna was amazing at looking after my cats. She did daily reports and twice daily pictures. I was worried about leaving them but everything was ok and she put my mind at ease.”
About: I am currently looking after a dog for a friend on a weekly basis, often going to the park, looking after him overnight, and sometimes day trips. I have raised my family dog since he was a puppy, so am fully aware of what that entails. When I go back home, I walk and take care of him. I live with my boyfriend who has had cats in the past, so I am used to having them in the house and how to take care of them. With this, I have lots of experience of walking, feeding, bathing, and keeping pets happy! I'm currently working from home full-time, so can look after pets at any time! My hours are also very flexible so I'm able to go for walks during my working day. I live in a flat, with a secure back garden that is fenced in. The front door to the flat block is always kept locked. I am happy to do whatever is needed to keep your pet safe and happy!

“First time we have used the Rover app for looking after our two cats and couldn’t recommend Oscar enough. Loved getting photos while we were away. I think Theo was gutted when we got home!”
About: I have been a lifelong dog enthusiast, caring for and cherishing dogs throughout my life. From a young age, my brother and I took on the shared responsibility of looking after our family Labrador. More recently, we experienced the loss of our beloved dog. So, I would now love the opportunity to care for your pets, not only to support you but also to bring joy and fulfillment to my own life.

I ensure a calm, comfortable environment by sticking to the pet’s routine and offering patient, loving care so they feel secure and happy.
“INCREDIBLE! Katherine has been the best cat sitter we have ever had. She even stayed longer than she should have everyday to make sure the kittens got enough time around humans / connection and play time. She sent us photos and videos everyday with updates and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Katherine! Would highly recommend!”

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.

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.
“Evie was a huge help in providing fairly last minute daycare for our puppy and were really understanding when we ran late for pick ups. I always worry about leaving our puppy with anyone as they can be hard work to look after, but Evie and her partner were great with him and we received regular updates on how he was getting on. He was happy every time he came home and we would not hesitate to contact Evie again whenever we are in need of puppy care!”
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.

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’ve had dogs since I was in primary school and currently own 1 gorgeous border collies after 2 sadly passed away. I’ve had two of my dogs from pups, with Ted now being 9. Bear sadly passed away last year at the age of 15. We also had a Dale, a rescue border collie who came to me badly neglected and abused. I nursed him back to health and gave him a little over a year of knowing a loving home until he sadly passed away after suffering a bleed on the brain. I regularly pup sit for friends and families dogs. I currently work from home and can be available during the day or evening for walkies, drop in visits and stays. Always happy to take doggy’s on adventures with us on weekends. I have a secure garden and 1 friendly border collie, aged 9 (nearly 10) to keep your furbaby company if you wish. The house is very much the dogs home as well as my own. I am responsible and happy to pop into your own home to look after your pup if that’s what you require and obviously walks galore are available!
About: I have a golden Labrador called Loki who is 7 years old and in the past few years, I have helped friends and family with their pet care when they are busy with work or off on holiday as I work from home and have the time to do so. I love to take dogs on long walks and feel it is essential they are in a homely environment when they are not in the comfort of their home and given plenty of attention and cuddles.s I work from home so am able to be present for anxious dogs/needy dogs. I like to go on a long walk once a day with my own dog. I have a fenced garden and a very loving sociable labrador. I also have a 4-year-old daughter who loves to give doggies cuddles and affection.
About: I have been raised with dogs since a child, I currently have a 2 year old Labrador myself. I love being in the company of dogs and enjoy teaching dogs new tricks, walks or just cuddling up on the sofa. I currently work from home between school hours, I walk my dog in the mornings to school and back, then he has his breakfast. During my working hours they will have access to the garden at all times for toilet breaks, or can be with me resting, where ever they feel comfortable. After work I walk to collect my son from school, on the way home they are able to have a longer walk. School run walks take 40 minutes in the morning, enough time to stretch their legs in the morning. I have a fenced garden and have a 2 year old male Labrador and two cats. We have two children aged 10 and 13 who love animals, there will be plenty of love, fusses and playtime for all. As our Labrador is entire, we are unable to accept unspayed female, as we do not think it is fair for either dog. We are able to accept entire males, subject to a meet and greet with both dogs. My main focus is making sure both dogs are happy to be around each other. If your beloved dog has any special requirements please let me know, I am happy to discuss these.
About: I grew up with lots of animals like a tiny farm and since going to university, I have missed it :( I always go to my family house where there is 5 cats, 2 goldens and 10 chickens and 1 rabbit. May sound like a lot but there is never a moment of boredom. I work in Boston, 8:30-17:00 Monday to Friday. Please take that into consideration when booking me as it doesn’t not let me edit my work schedule into the app. Anytime after 17:30, if you want your dog walking I would be happy too. I really enjoy going on walks with dogs. I have a fenced garden and love going on walks. Dogs and cats are allowed on furniture so they have many places to venture and relax :)
About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including working in a home boarding environment.

I have experience with rescue dogs, young puppies, and more nervous or reactive animals, and I always adapt my approach to suit each pet’s needs. I’m trusted by friends, family, and clients to feed, walk, check in, and spend quality time with their pets, making sure they feel safe, settled, and well cared for while their owners are away.

I ensure your home is left secure after every visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, I have lots of experience and my own little Bichon Frise. We live on a farm so lots of space as well as nice big secure garden. We have looked after many friends and family’s dogs and we like to make them feel part of the family. I’m currently working part time and working from home. My husband works within ten minutes from home and is home multiple times a day so if i need to nip out they will not be left for long. Me and my Bichon Megan are always out walking so we can offer plenty of walks and most are on our door step so we don’t even have to go in the car. I have a secure garden and a very friendly Bichon Frise to keep your pooch company. They will always be supervised by me when they are together:
About: I've got 8 years experience with two dogs in my home. Now I have just one, a Cairn Terrier, so would be pleased to look after a playmate for her from time to time! I work full-time from home so your pup can be by my side and have regular toilet breaks (and strokes). In the evenings I have plenty of time to play and to cuddle! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 5pm I have a fenced garden, an adult son at home and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and I have a fold away pen perfect for puppies. Lots of toys and balls to play with and comfy sofas and chairs to lounge on
About: I’ve had experience with a variety of dogs throughout childhood, but have raised labradors from puppies in my adult life. Whilst having the opportunity to be at home through the week, the biggest thing I can offer you is my time and dedication; I love all breeds and no requirement is too small. Please feel free to get in touch, even if just for a chat! My long term plans involve completing my studies to become a mental health practitioner, so I have a lot of home availability and wanted to fill my time with something that I’m really passionate about. I have a fenced garden, security cameras and a friendly Labrador to keep your dog company and entertained! I’m always attentive to making sure Toby is fed, has access to water bowls, and acknowledging communication and signals for their biological needs and play schedules! Very happy to do a meet and greet to see how you, and perhaps most importantly, your dog feels in our environment!

About: I'M BACK! After taking 6 months off to breed and train my next generation of Rhodesian Ridgebacks, I am happy to say that I am available again! I own two dogs, one cat and two horses, some of whom you can see on my profile! I would definitely say that I am an animal person haha! Over the years, I have learnt dog training skills such as how to remedy a dog who pulls on the lead or jumps up. I am experienced in administering medication for both dogs and cats and can even bathe them for you if needed! I am more than happy to do drop-ins for cats to feed and top up their water when needed if you don’t need me to stay over night! If you have any other small pets, I'm more than happy and experienced in looking after them for you whilst you're away (I grew up with mice, rabbits and Giant African Snails)! If you have horses, there is no need to put them into livery either, as I can look after them too when you go away! A bit about myself: I work from home which fits in great with dog sitting, as all I have to do is remember to bring my laptop with me! Don't worry, your pets will get plenty of exercise, socialisation and of course lots of love and care with me! Working from home means I am able to be around your pets all day, as long as I remember to bring my laptop with me! Our home has a fully secure terraced garden with 6ft+ old stone walls, so there is no escaping! We have many wonderful walks on our doorstep and our house location is quiet and safe. We take the dogs on secure, off-road country walks, and especially enjoy going for walks in the woods!

About: Growing up I've always had animals, including dogs, cats. I used to spend a few weeks a year with my family on my uncles farm helping out. I had a black lab cross, but lost him 2 years ago, he was beautiful although a little crazy, but loved long country walks and plenty of cuddles. I regularly look after my mums spaniel, hes very active although has alot of medication. I love having him because it means we can enjoy spending time together with an animal. I worked in a veterinary practise for two years before getting pregnant because animals is a big passion. I was training to be a vet nurse before having my son, Joey. The opportunity to house sit and spend time with your pets means we can enjoy our travel lifestyle whilst pursuing our passion with animals. In the last 10 years we've been all over the world and enjoyed time together with a variety of animals including dogs, cats. I love the fact that we can actually relax in a home environment with your furry family members. Last year we lived in Brazil and rescued a sick dog and 5 abandoned kittens from the streets, we nursed them to health and they became part of the family, which is why it was tough letting them go, but our goal was to find loving new homes for them which we managed to do. I host Air Bnb and stay in mainly Airbnbs at the moment when away, therefore know the responsibility of looking after someone else home, I have also made some great friends through this site. Hello there! My name is Cara. I currently work remotely as an online tutor, but I love languages and art and nature. Working from home, means lots of flexibility and time with your furry family members! I am a big animal lover and have always had them in my life. Although exploring new places means we can't have a furry family member full time, we have looked after dogs, cats. I rescued a dog and 5 kittens from the streets of Brazil when living there last year and successfully re-homed them. We will be sure to update you with lots of pictures. Being outdoors is my favourite hobby and sharing that experience together with an animal is something we thrive on. Looking forward to meeting you and you furry/ or not animal family members soon! Cara and Joey You pets will be welcomed into my home and will enjoy every minute here. Lots of country side in our quiet village and as I work from home, they will have plenty of time with me.

About: If you choose me to look after your pets, you can have full trust that I will give them my best care. I have previously worked at both a kennels and cattery, I've also studied animal welfare and management which has given me experience and skills to give animals the correct care that they deserve. I have been around animals my whole life and do not intend to end this anytime soon, I have previously cared for two large dogs by house sitting and walking them everyday, this taught me invaluable lessons not only with the animals but also with the owner and I can safely say my communication, time management and all round understanding of the animals' behaviours has grown and I'm looking forward to meeting your pets who I can spend time with. I have had my own dog and various other pets (rabbits, guinea pigs, reptiles) since I have been a child so my skillset is varied, growing up around animals has made me the person I am today and given me that extra experience to know what your animal needs. I am currently studying a the university of Lincoln, leaving me with a flexible schedule. I attend university a few days a week, which enables me to work with your routine and give the best care for your pets! When looking after your pet, in any service, I will do my best to give them the care we know they deserve. I will make sure I know everything from you, the owners, about your dogs. From their temperament with other dogs, to if you prefer on/off the leash walks. Whatever you need.
About: I’m a vet student, but I’m currently taking a year out of study. I first started working in kennels just over three years ago and I’ve loved it! Working there has given me plenty of experience with a variety of breeds/temperaments I currently still work at kennels, but I’m on a zero hour contract. Winter tends to be very quiet, so I’ll be working fewer days. My availability therefore varies, but at the moment I’m available far more than normal How I care for your pet will vary depending on the individual’s needs, whether that be giving lots of cuddles, or someone who needs more space. Regardless of their personality, I will look after them as well as I can. I’ll make sure their needs are met (food, water, toilet breaks, ensuring everything is clean, exercise, etc). The details of what each pet needs can be discussed and planned on an individual basis. Unfortunately I cannot have any pets in my home because I have two cats who are very nervous, so it wouldn’t be fair on them.
“Today Oscar visited us again, my dogs recognised him immediately and were very happy of seeing him again. This time after walking my 2 boxers together he also helped me to teach them how to use a special stair for the car boot which I have recently purchased. I can tell that the whole experience was very positive. I learn a lot from Oscar every time on how to interact with my dogs, how to create an easy going environment for the future. Visibly he has a wealth of knowledge on training dogs and control them with kindness, calmness and good energy.”

“Shaun and his family looked after my dog so well - he had a wonderful time. They are very caring and they were very happy to walk and play with my dog. I am very grateful and I will certainly be calling on them again. Thank you!”
“Clear and concise communication from start to finish and super welcoming. Stepped in last minute when we were let down by someone else. Otto looks to have had a fab time from pictures and videos and we will definitely be using Bradley again.”
“Paige is fab! Betty had a great stay with her, exploring lots of new things and I felt really at ease knowing she was being looked after by someone who has so much love and care for animals. Communication was great, lots of photos/videos. Would definitely recommend.”
“Mango had the best time and was well looked after. We received updates and pictures and if dogs could smile Mango certainly was! The setup is perfect for dogs with a secure fence and perfect for dog walks. It made us feel a little less guilty for having a night away without her. We could relax knowing she was in safe hands. Would definitely recommend and will be rebooking in the future if we are in the area.”
“Alice was great with Wilf. We had a meet and greet first, then Wilf stayed for an overnight. There's plenty of room, a very large garden and lots of land. Wilf had walks and played with Alice's dog. He came back very tired! We'll certainly be using Alice again.”
“Thank you so much for looking after my dog. You always kept us updated with photos of how she was doing, which gave us great peace of mind. Seeing how happy and well cared for she was made us feel so reassured while we were away. We could tell she was in great hands, and we’re very grateful for the love and attention you gave her. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Cuba was very happy with Laura and came home full of herself! When our return plans changed, Laura was very accommodating and understanding. Cuba is booked in with Laura again and I have no hesitation in recommending her.”
About: Highly experienced ex dog owner who has raised a diverse range of breeds. I really miss having my loveable companions by my side both inside and outside of my home.

“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.”

I hold a qualification in Animal Management and also have veterinary experience, which has given me strong knowledge of animal health, behaviour, and wellbeing.

“I picked up our Boston Terrier, Edie, today after an overnight stay with Simon, and it was another very positive experience. Once again, I found him to be highly responsible, professional, and kind. He was eager to learn about Edie's habits, likes, and dislikes, and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. I provided a list of her commands, routine, and little quirks, but I felt that even if I had forgotten something, he would easily handle whatever came up. Simon was also incredibly helpful when I accidentally left a couple of Edie's things behind, generously offering some of his own for her to use. When I collected Edie, she was bright and happy, and they had just been outside playing in the garden together. Additionally, his house and neighbourhood are very safe environments. I didn't worry about her getting into trouble inside because his home is so organised and tidy. The neighbourhood has plenty of green space for walks and feels like a close-knit community. I have already booked Edie in for another overnight stay with Simon. I expect it will go just as well, and I know Edie will be happy to see him again!”
“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 ❤️”
“Catherine is such a kind and active sitter. Her energy and environment was perfect for our social and curious 20 month old dog. She came to meet Toro in person and invited us to see her home. She communicated well pre and during the sit with lots of pictures showing Toro playing and going for long walks. I knew he was well cared for and having a good time. I will hopefully have Toro stay with her again.”
“Very pleased with Gabriella and hope to use her service again. Noodles seemed extremely happy and settled with her. She kept us informed on how he was and sent us pictures of how he was doing. Very positive feedback from us.”
“Cordelia was amazing as always, she’s our favourite sitter and Thor’s too! Such a lovely girl and you can see how much she cares for animals - she treats Thor as her own and he can’t wait to come back next week for another visit🥰”
“Charys looked after my dog for the weekend and I’m very happy with the care that she received. My dog came home very happy too. I also got updates, which I appreciated. I have already booked my dog’s next stay.”
“Edwina and her partner were amazing. Lexi was so well looked after by two people that are clearly dog lovers. I forgot Lexi's blanket and toys and nothing was too much trouble. If you want your dog looked after in a caring home look no further.”
“Sandra went above and beyond when our train was delayed meaning we would struggle to pick up the dogs on time and she drove the 30 mins each way to drop them off at my daughter’s house. Both dogs seemed to have enjoyed their time with Sandra. Such a shame she is over an hour away from my home.”
