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.

Laurie is a superb dog sitter. She's got the perfect house for it and she asked all the important questions about my dog, which showed that she is clearly experienced with dogs and really cares about them. I'd 100% recommend her and will use her again next time I'm in the area. Thanks Laurie!

We have never left our cockerpoo off with anyone but family! but Stacey was brilliant. Oliver had a lovely time with Stacey’s family, he loves children and other dogs so he was in his element! Thank you for giving us a worry free break where we knew Oliver was in good hands by receiving photos and messages throughout the stay. 10/10 service would highly recommend. Stacey also took this booking very last minute with very quick responses which is very much appreciated! Thank you for looking after Bobby !

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.

Daisy is a senior dog who has only ever stayed with her family so there were reservations leaving her with a stranger but you exceeded all expectations and l will be happy to leave her with you again.

Kaos really enjoyed his time away, he has some issues with having 1 eye and needing some meds but they looked after him well, even when he got stressed on day one. Calmed and enjoyed the rest of his stay. I would definitely recommend Billie and Kane as they were so understanding and he came back feeling happy and he was so excited when we got back which was lovely as he is heading to 16 years old but can be puppy like but needs the support too, Thank you both, can’t wait to book again..

We had lots of pupdates with pictures and could see our fur baby was really cared for. We will definitely be using these lovely people again and would highly recommend them.

Edith Weston, LE15

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!

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and being around them is just part of my everyday routine. At home we have two very friendly Eastern European Shepherds, so I’m very used to living with large breeds and helping with feeding, brushing, playtime, and keeping dogs calm and happy. My parents have lots of experience with dogs, and my dad is an IMDT‑qualified puppy instructor, so I’ve learned a lot from being involved in training sessions and understanding different dog personalities. It’s taught me how to stay confident, gentle, and patient with all kinds of dogs. I’m currently home from uni, which means I have plenty of time to devote to looking after dogs like walking, drop‑ins, or giving them a safe, comfy area in our 3 storey house, away from the shepherds if needed. There are also lovely woodland paths and fields close to our home, so dogs get plenty of chances for fun walks. If you’re looking for someone who’s grown up in a dog‑experienced home, is confident with small and large breeds, with lots of time to give your dog attention and care, I’d love to help! I'm currently at home from university, so I am free any day of the week to look after your dogs and available for boarding/walking any time! We have a fenced garden and a very dog friendly household where your dog will be treated like a member of the family. There are lovely walks nearby and your fur baby will get lots of attention and plenty of cuddles while they're here!

Angie was absolutely amazing with our cat Chandler. From the very first visit, it was clear she genuinely cares and takes her responsibility seriously. She kept us updated during every drop-in with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Chandler was clearly comfortable and well looked after, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. We would 100% book Angie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful sitter.

About: DBS checked. I provide reliable, home based dog care in your home or mine, including sitting, boarding, daycare, and walking, tailored to each dog’s individual needs. I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes from a young age, with experience ranging from newborn puppies and energetic young dogs to older dogs requiring a calmer, more attentive approach. I hold a Level 3 CPD Award in Veterinary Support Assistance, with training in animal handling, first aid, health awareness, and emergency situations, allowing me to prioritise safety and wellbeing in every booking. Dogs in my care benefit from a calm, structured environment with access to quiet walking routes and open countryside, ideal for both exercise and relaxed time. Experienced with active dogs who enjoy longer countryside walks and consistent outdoor exercise throughout the year. Confident handling high energy breeds who require structured exercise and stimulation. I work fulltime in a professional role and bring that same reliability, organisation, and communication to my dog care. Owners can expect consistency, regular updates, and a dependable service they can trust. I’m particularly suited to owners looking for regular, longterm care or a safe, stable home environment while they are away. I plan my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. I provide consistent care throughout the day, including morning walks, daytime exercise and stimulation, and evening wind-down time. I’m flexible and adjust my routine depending on each dog’s usual schedule and energy levels. My focus is on keeping routines as familiar and stress free as possible so dogs feel settled and comfortable during their stay. Whether in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment where dogs can relax and feel secure. I ensure all spaces are safe, clean, and free from hazards, and I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding, walking, and any medication requirements. Dogs are always supervised and kept secure during walks, with careful attention to their behaviour and surroundings. I also provide regular updates so owners can feel confident and reassured while they are away.

About: Even though my expertise are in dogs, I have had experience in caring for a couple cats during my 4 years of dog care. I realise each cat is different so am happy to learn about your animals needs and give them all the attention or space that they need. I have in the past house sat and cat sat for families for weeks at a time with no problems! I am currently studying a degree in bioveterinary sciences so my true passion is to make sure your animal is always safe and cared for.

About: I have had cats for as long as I can remember, growing up with them from a very young age. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their behaviour, personalities, and individual needs. Currently, I have three cats of my own and two dogs, so caring for multiple cats and managing different temperaments is something I’m very comfortable with. I absolutely love cats—honestly, I’m a bit obsessed. I enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s playing with energetic kittens or giving gentle attention to older, more relaxed cats. I’m experienced with cats at all stages of life, from young, playful kittens to senior cats who may need a quieter, more attentive approach. I’m committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for any cat in my care. I understand that every cat is different, and I’m more than happy to accommodate their individual routines, preferences, and needs—whether that means sticking to specific feeding schedules, administering basic care, or simply giving them the space or affection they require to feel at ease.

About: My prices may be a little higher than some on Rover, but I am the ONLY licensed dog boarder on this site in Peterborough. This means that I am regulated by the Council who have inspected my property and approved me as a professional boarder/daycare provider, governed by DEFRA regulations. Licence Number 119691 Issued by Peterborough City Council. Please use this link to receive £15 off your first booking with me…. https://www.rover.com/sit/lynnd34729 Please ensure any dog boarder or doggy daycare provider that you use, is licensed by the local Council. If they don’t display a license number, they haven’t got one !!! Any insurance that they may hold (including any that Rover give) will be invalidated….as any insurance will be, that you have. Don’t take the chance of something happening to your furbaby ! Ask to see the license…..to make sure. At Dixons dog sitters, we are BIG softies for all animals....but especially for dogs. I have owned and looked after dogs of my own now, for over 40 years and the profile photo shows our pup...7 year old Polly. I have now professionally looked after other peoples dogs for 4 years. I have full public liability insurance. I also hold a pet first aid certificate and a diploma in pet care. Our dog, Polly is such a fun little girl, who loves to play. Polly can sometimes be bossy with younger dogs, but once settled down they quickly form very close friendship bonds. She shares her toys, her home, her owners…and even her food with her new doggy friends. I am semi retired and work part time from home, so I am available 24/7 to pamper and care for your fur baby. Paul (my Husband) works nights, so is up and around from lunchtime every day, so there is ALWAYS someone at home. Your dog will never be left alone, and when it is too hot or too wet to go outside, there are always lots of toys to play with. They will DEFINITELY get spoiled when they holiday with Aunty Lynn and Uncle Paul ! We will care for small to medium sized dogs that fit the following criteria. However, we do occasionally take on bigger dogs (lurchers, labradors etc) Your dog needs to be socialised with other dogs. Not be aggressive in any way. Walk nicely on the lead. Be able to sleep alone or with other dogs. Please take a look at some of the reviews left by owners. Dixons dog sitters holds £2million public liability insurance and we will take care of your fur baby, as well as we take care of our own. I always insist on a meet and greet before your dog comes to stay. This will reassure you, that our house is a safe, secure, clean and loving environment. You get to meet our dog and any other dogs that are staying at the time. This makes the whole process so much easier to handle for everyone concerned. I know how stressful it can be, to leave your pets with anyone, other than family. We will never take dogs out in the heat of the day, or when it is raining heavily and won't let them off lead, unless told that they can be trusted to not run away. We have a large secure garden with shaded areas to play in, and enjoy indoor playtime and enrichment activities, when we are unable to go out for a walk, due to adverse weather conditions. We allow all dogs the full run of the house.....but have a barrier at the bottom of the stairs, and at the entrance to the kitchen, where they can be contained, if we open the front door. We are getting electric gates fitted soon. Every aspect is covered to keep them safe, secure and happy, whilst they are in my care. We always send lots of updates and photos to reassure owners. I am licensed to board 5 dogs at a time, so your dog needs to be well socialised and toilet trained. All dogs are walked once/twice a day....weather and ability dependant. All dogs are let out into our large secured garden to play, or go to the toilet every hour or so. In the Summer months, the back door is left open, so they can come and go as they please. Their last toilet break is usually around midnight. Your fur baby will become part of our family whilst you are away. There are no favourites in this household, and no forbidden areas. Everyone is treated the same. If Polly goes for a walk, so does your dog. If Polly gets a treat, so does your dog. You can enjoy your time away, knowing that your fur baby will not just be taken care of….they will be loved. Please read my testimonials. Lynn is semi retired and works from home and Paul works nights, so is up and about from lunchtime onwards. There is always at least one of us at home. We have a large private and secure garden where dogs can run and play. Enrichment activities are part of the day and walkies are twice daily. We have a barrier that is placed at the bottom of the stairs and a barrier to contain any dogs whilst we answer the front door.

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!

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!

Laura is so sweet with Xiggy! He got good walks, fun with her two pups, and lots of love when we had two daycares while visiting the area for a work trip. She was flexible and so kind. We’d stay again anytime. Thank you!

About: Having grown up surrounded by dogs, cats and horses, I understand that they’re more than just pets; they’re cherished members of the family and bring so much joy and happiness. I understand the importance of quality care, compassion and providing a home-from-home experience for your dog. From Dalmatians to dachshunds, every dog is treated with love, kindness and care. I currently have a gorgeous red fox Labrador X vizsla called ‘Hera’, she’s incredibly friendly and loves nothing more than having a playmate for all of our adventures! I’m active and love nothing more than being outside exploring, and I’m fortunate enough to work from home, with a very flexible schedule (allowing for lots of walks and ‘garden zoomies!’ Your dogs comfort, routine and happiness is my top priority and I’m dedicated to accommodating their every requirement. I can’t wait to meet your lovely dogs x I’m fortunate enough to work remotely, from home and with a very flexible schedule, allowing for lots of adventures and garden zoomies! My dog, Hera, typically has 3 walks per day come rain or shine! I have a large, secure garden and live in a rural setting, with immediate access to countryside walks. If I’m walking a dog from your home, I’ll always research the local area to find the best walks and love nothing more than discovering new paths with a four-legged fur baby for company!

About: I’ve struggled myself to find the right home to look after my precious boys. I offer a home from home setting where your dog(s) will receive lots of cuddles and lots of playtime. We have two male cockapoos, one of which is of senior age. We have previously had Great Danes (gorgeous breed) and have grown up round a variety of breeds. We have two children age 10 and 13 who have grown up around animals and absolutely love dogs and if your dog wants to run around with smaller humans they’re all for it. I work from home part time so I’m available for cuddles on the sofa and they can play freely with open access to the enclosed garden. We will accommodate so that everything is familiar to what they are used to for example sleeping in the kitchen, sleeping in a bedroom, being on furniture and so forth. We have a Vets locally who our dogs are registered with and plenty of green areas for dogs to have good walks. Any questions please feel free to ask. I know they are your babies and we will take great care of them. I work from home part time and I’m kept company by my two cockerpoos; one who is old and quite happily chills and the other who is seven and can always be encouraged to play. We have a secure enclosed garden where they will have access to play freely. We have lots of walks and greenery close by so they don’t have to do the same route all the time and can adapt the walks we take to your dogs needs.

Ingrid has been wonderful with Rua. Rua took to her and her husband straight away and loves spending time with them. They have been taking Rua on walks and looking after her for day boarding, and she always comes home happy and tired from all the fun. Ingrid is friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with. We feel completely comfortable leaving Rua in her care and would highly recommend her.

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.

When caring for pets in your home, I take a calm, respectful, and reliable approach to make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding, walking, medication if needed, and maintaining routines. I have experience with both confident and more nervous or reactive animals, and I always adapt my approach to suit each pet. I ensure your home is left secure after every visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

Many thanks Tom and your lovely family, for taking good care of Daisy yesterday. Our labradoodle is 11 now and it’s the 1st occasion we have left her with Tom. He sent through some lovely photos of Daisy with the children, which was very reassuring and gave us the confidence to know that she had settled in and will be fine when we leave her again. Hopefully next time the weather will be less soggy for your walks !

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and being around them is just part of my everyday routine. At home we have two very friendly Eastern European Shepherds, so I’m very used to living with large breeds and helping with feeding, brushing, playtime, and keeping dogs calm and happy. My parents have lots of experience with dogs, and my dad is an IMDT‑qualified puppy instructor, so I’ve learned a lot from being involved in training sessions and understanding different dog personalities. It’s taught me how to stay confident, gentle, and patient with all kinds of dogs. I’m currently home from uni, which means I have plenty of time to devote to looking after dogs like walking, drop‑ins, or giving them a safe, comfy area in our 3 storey house, away from the shepherds if needed. There are also lovely woodland paths and fields close to our home, so dogs get plenty of chances for fun walks. If you’re looking for someone who’s grown up in a dog‑experienced home, is confident with small and large breeds, with lots of time to give your dog attention and care, I’d love to help! I'm currently at home from university, so I am free any day of the week to look after your dogs and available for boarding/walking any time! We have a fenced garden and a very dog friendly household where your dog will be treated like a member of the family. There are lovely walks nearby and your fur baby will get lots of attention and plenty of cuddles while they're here!

About: I am a Dog Trainer, with a Level 4 certification. I am qualified in Canine First Aid. I started my career with dogs volunteering in a Grey Hound Rehome Kennel and then became a Dog Handler in 2020. Accumulating my experience I have over 8 years working with dogs. I 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, reactivity, tracking and scent-work training. Experienced with a wide variety of breeds, behaviour issues 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.

Angie is EXCELLENT! From initial contact communication was great, we needed someone to walk our dog for initially 4 days then extended it 8 which she accommodated for us. The initial meet & greet went brilliant, our dog Iggi can be reticent with people she doesn’t know but immediately warmed to Angie. She excitedly greeted her when going on a walk and Angie always sent a little report with each walk and a couple of photos. Iggi came back from each walk sated and happy. We cannot praise Angie highly enough and will use her in future when we are in the area visiting family & friends

I have many returning clients and go above and beyond to ensure both your pets and you are completely satisfied with all the services I provide.

One of my greatest pleasures is walking in nature with the dogs in my care; whether it’s a woodland adventure or a splash by the water, I offer diverse walks for your fur babies to enjoy, that include opportunities for socialisation with other dogs and humans. I am home full time as I have an online tutoring business working with students around the world.

I have a large enclosed garden perfect for your fur babies to run around in; they have full access to the garden as they desire as my back door is rarely closed. I have crates, should your pet need crating or you may of course provide your own. I adhere strictly to any special requirements you have regarding the care of your pet. I also have my own private walking field where all dogs are safe to run freely.

About: I am a student at Newcastle University and have a part time job. I have always loved animals and have had cats all my life, but my sister got a dog a few years ago (fox red lab called Ned - our pride and joy!) and I have loved looking after him when she goes away. As I don't work every day, but I work in retail, I have to stay up until xmas eve and be back in Newcastle on the 28th (My family live in Lincolnshire for reference) so I would love to have some company over the xmas holidays! I take this very seriously and consider myself a very responsible individual, as I will be very much locked in in the evenings doing uni work! My schedule is very random and is subject to change, so for inquiries I am more than happy to work around you. Please ask what days would suit and I can move my shifts around! We do have an outside courtyard area for the dog/cat to explore and I am more than happy to take them on as many walks as required. we have a spacious lounge/kitchen living area so the pets can get comfy!

About: 🐾Get £15 OFF your first booking!🐾 Use code: GABRID21881 at checkout. I am a newly qualified Registered Veterinary Nurse with experience caring for a wide range of animals. Alongside my veterinary nursing training, I have been pet sitting through Rover for the past few months, giving me the opportunity to care for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds and personalities. I love providing pets with the care, attention and reassurance they need while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy and relaxed in their own home. I currently work at a boarding kennels, where I care for dogs every day. My role includes feeding, exercising, cleaning, administering medications when required, monitoring behaviour and ensuring every dog is comfortable, healthy and happy. I have owned dogs and cats for most of my life and currently have an English Bull Terrier puppy called Moose, along with my two cats, Cookie and Colin. Cookie is a senior cat with arthritis, so I have plenty of experience caring for older pets and understanding their individual needs. Living with pets and working as a veterinary nurse has given me a good understanding of animal behaviour, recognising when an animal may be anxious or unwell, and adapting my care to suit each pet’s personality. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention and care while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind. I currently work mornings and afternoons at a kennels from 7:30am–12pm and 2pm–5pm, with a two-hour break during the day where I can return to care for pets. I’m available before work, during my lunch break and from 5pm onwards in the evening. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules and walks. If needed, I can do a morning walk, a walk during my lunch break and an evening walk. For dogs that enjoy more exercise, I’m also happy to take them to paddocks so they can have a safe run around and burn off energy. On Fridays I work an evening shift at a pub, so I would only be available with your pet from around 5pm–6pm before leaving for work and returning around midnight. Because of this I usually avoid Friday bookings, but I’m happy to discuss it with owners if this schedule still suits their pet. On Saturdays I work at the pub from 12pm–6pm, so I’m available in the morning and again in the evening. I am fully available on Sundays. I currently offer pet care in the owner’s home rather than bringing pets to my own home. I find that many animals feel much more relaxed and comfortable staying in their familiar environment, where they have their usual routine, smells and surroundings. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, calm and well cared for while their owners are away. As a veterinary nursing student, I am confident handling animals safely and recognising signs of stress or illness. I am experienced in administering medication, following specialised diets and making sure pets receive the care and attention they need. I will always follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime and rest. I am also very happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand, such as going for a walk together with the owner and their dog. This allows the pet to get to know me first and helps everyone feel comfortable and confident before any booking.

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.

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: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have always been a big animal lover. I always am first to volunteer to look after family & friends dogs - I have a lot of love to give! I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement, which I use to help dogs feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s energetic puppies who need structure or older dogs who need gentler care, I know how to adapt to their needs. Having raised two dogs of my own with my parents, I treat every pup as if they’re family ◡̈ Right now, I do work a 8.30-5 Mon-Fri job, however I can give your pets plenty of time and attention when I am not working whether that be in the evenings or at weekends. I love spending time with animals, please message me if you would like my help and we can discuss! Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or longer visits, I can be there when you and your pets need me most. I’m more than happy to look after your pets in the comfort of their home. This way, they can stay in a familiar environment and keep to their usual routine. I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise with walks in their local area, along with playtime, cuddles, feeding, and anything else they need to feel safe and happy while you’re away.

What an insightful caring walker Rachel is. We are looking to add a couple of people to the roster of dog walkers close to Brian and Rachel provided a terrific and engaging route for Brian over the hour he spent with her. We hope Brian will spend more time with Rachel over the coming weeks and months.

About: My prices may be a little higher than some on Rover, but I am the ONLY licensed dog boarder on this site in Peterborough. This means that I am regulated by the Council who have inspected my property and approved me as a professional boarder/daycare provider, governed by DEFRA regulations. Licence Number 119691 Issued by Peterborough City Council. Please use this link to receive £15 off your first booking with me…. https://www.rover.com/sit/lynnd34729 Please ensure any dog boarder or doggy daycare provider that you use, is licensed by the local Council. If they don’t display a license number, they haven’t got one !!! Any insurance that they may hold (including any that Rover give) will be invalidated….as any insurance will be, that you have. Don’t take the chance of something happening to your furbaby ! Ask to see the license…..to make sure. At Dixons dog sitters, we are BIG softies for all animals....but especially for dogs. I have owned and looked after dogs of my own now, for over 40 years and the profile photo shows our pup...7 year old Polly. I have now professionally looked after other peoples dogs for 4 years. I have full public liability insurance. I also hold a pet first aid certificate and a diploma in pet care. Our dog, Polly is such a fun little girl, who loves to play. Polly can sometimes be bossy with younger dogs, but once settled down they quickly form very close friendship bonds. She shares her toys, her home, her owners…and even her food with her new doggy friends. I am semi retired and work part time from home, so I am available 24/7 to pamper and care for your fur baby. Paul (my Husband) works nights, so is up and around from lunchtime every day, so there is ALWAYS someone at home. Your dog will never be left alone, and when it is too hot or too wet to go outside, there are always lots of toys to play with. They will DEFINITELY get spoiled when they holiday with Aunty Lynn and Uncle Paul ! We will care for small to medium sized dogs that fit the following criteria. However, we do occasionally take on bigger dogs (lurchers, labradors etc) Your dog needs to be socialised with other dogs. Not be aggressive in any way. Walk nicely on the lead. Be able to sleep alone or with other dogs. Please take a look at some of the reviews left by owners. Dixons dog sitters holds £2million public liability insurance and we will take care of your fur baby, as well as we take care of our own. I always insist on a meet and greet before your dog comes to stay. This will reassure you, that our house is a safe, secure, clean and loving environment. You get to meet our dog and any other dogs that are staying at the time. This makes the whole process so much easier to handle for everyone concerned. I know how stressful it can be, to leave your pets with anyone, other than family. We will never take dogs out in the heat of the day, or when it is raining heavily and won't let them off lead, unless told that they can be trusted to not run away. We have a large secure garden with shaded areas to play in, and enjoy indoor playtime and enrichment activities, when we are unable to go out for a walk, due to adverse weather conditions. We allow all dogs the full run of the house.....but have a barrier at the bottom of the stairs, and at the entrance to the kitchen, where they can be contained, if we open the front door. We are getting electric gates fitted soon. Every aspect is covered to keep them safe, secure and happy, whilst they are in my care. We always send lots of updates and photos to reassure owners. I am licensed to board 5 dogs at a time, so your dog needs to be well socialised and toilet trained. All dogs are walked once/twice a day....weather and ability dependant. All dogs are let out into our large secured garden to play, or go to the toilet every hour or so. In the Summer months, the back door is left open, so they can come and go as they please. Their last toilet break is usually around midnight. Your fur baby will become part of our family whilst you are away. There are no favourites in this household, and no forbidden areas. Everyone is treated the same. If Polly goes for a walk, so does your dog. If Polly gets a treat, so does your dog. You can enjoy your time away, knowing that your fur baby will not just be taken care of….they will be loved. Please read my testimonials. Lynn is semi retired and works from home and Paul works nights, so is up and about from lunchtime onwards. There is always at least one of us at home. We have a large private and secure garden where dogs can run and play. Enrichment activities are part of the day and walkies are twice daily. We have a barrier that is placed at the bottom of the stairs and a barrier to contain any dogs whilst we answer the front door.

Corby, NN17

About: I’ve grown up around Labradors and horses, so I’m very comfortable with active, outdoor-loving animals and understanding different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. At home, I have two dachshunds and one cat, so I’m very used to managing a multi-pet household and the balance that comes with different personalities, feeding routines, and individual needs. Having dachshunds has given me plenty of experience with more sensitive, quirky, and sometimes needy dogs, so I’m confident in providing calm, patient care and adapting to each dog as an individual rather than a “one size fits all” approach. I also have experience supporting puppies with structure and consistency, as well as senior dogs who need a slower pace, extra reassurance, and careful attention to comfort and routine. Above all, I focus on creating a calm, familiar environment so pets feel settled, safe, and understood while their owners are away. I work from home online, which gives me a flexible daily routine and allows me to plan my schedule around the pets in my care. This means I am able to provide regular walks, toilet breaks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day, rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I build my day around the needs of each booking, so care is consistent, calm, and tailored to each pet’s usual routine. I care for each pet as an individual and always follow their normal routine as closely as possible to ensure they feel safe, settled, and comfortable while their owners are away. Before any booking, I will always ask detailed questions about your pet’s routine, behaviour, preferences, and any specific needs so I can provide consistent care that mirrors what they are used to at home. I also arrange a meet and greet with all new clients and their pets beforehand, so everyone can feel comfortable and confident before the stay or visit begins. Whether in your home or mine, I prioritise calm, respectful care and always follow owner instructions closely to maintain safety, trust, and routine.

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. I have experience in training young puppies right through to adapting my time to suit a mature dogs lifestyle. Most importantly I love walking in all weathers and am happy to adapt my routine to meet the needs of your dog/s. I am available Monday to Friday and have some availability at weekends too. I would consider dog sitting in the comfort of your own home if this was your preferred option. I have a large, secure, fenced garden and have lots of floor space in my house to ensure your dog has everything they need to feel relaxed and at home. I also have room for a dog crate if required.

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.

Kaos really enjoyed his time away, he has some issues with having 1 eye and needing some meds but they looked after him well, even when he got stressed on day one. Calmed and enjoyed the rest of his stay. I would definitely recommend Billie and Kane as they were so understanding and he came back feeling happy and he was so excited when we got back which was lovely as he is heading to 16 years old but can be puppy like but needs the support too, Thank you both, can’t wait to book again..

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!

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and being around them is just part of my everyday routine. At home we have two very friendly Eastern European Shepherds, so I’m very used to living with large breeds and helping with feeding, brushing, playtime, and keeping dogs calm and happy. My parents have lots of experience with dogs, and my dad is an IMDT‑qualified puppy instructor, so I’ve learned a lot from being involved in training sessions and understanding different dog personalities. It’s taught me how to stay confident, gentle, and patient with all kinds of dogs. I’m currently home from uni, which means I have plenty of time to devote to looking after dogs like walking, drop‑ins, or giving them a safe, comfy area in our 3 storey house, away from the shepherds if needed. There are also lovely woodland paths and fields close to our home, so dogs get plenty of chances for fun walks. If you’re looking for someone who’s grown up in a dog‑experienced home, is confident with small and large breeds, with lots of time to give your dog attention and care, I’d love to help! I'm currently at home from university, so I am free any day of the week to look after your dogs and available for boarding/walking any time! We have a fenced garden and a very dog friendly household where your dog will be treated like a member of the family. There are lovely walks nearby and your fur baby will get lots of attention and plenty of cuddles while they're here!

Miro had a lovely overnight stay at Irina’s prior to his longer stay in September. He was very happy playing with all the dog toys in the toy box! It was discussed with Irina that it would suit Miro better if Irina came to our house for the September stay as it’s a long stay. We have arranged this with Irina and look forward to seeing her again.

Milena was absolutely wonderful with my kitten! ❤️ I left him with her for 3 weeks and she took such great care of him. She kept me updated every single day with lovely photos and videos of what they had been getting up to, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. From the photos and videos he looks so happy, healthy and very well cared for, and he’s growing so well. You can really tell how much love and attention she gave him. 🥰 I would definitely recommend Milena to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets. Thank you so much, Milena! ❤️

About: I’ve had a lifelong love for dogs and several years of hands-on experience caring for them in a variety of settings. I’ve looked after puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between, including high-energy breeds that need plenty of exercise and older dogs who require a gentler approach.

I’m comfortable following specific routines and handling multiple dogs at once while making sure each one gets individual attention. My priority is always creating a safe, calm, and happy environment where dogs feel loved and secure while their owners are away. I’m free 24/7 at the moment i only have college which means im available for your pet whenever needed and super flexible so you can message me last minute for me to look after your pet I have a huge garden where your pet can run around and have lots of freedom, and in your home i can ensure all of my attention is focused onto your pet to ensure it has the best time and is treated with care

Eleni, is just a dream. From initial contact she was proactive with her responses, accommodating and very welcoming. Frieda is a very shy dog with strangers, but within seconds, she was wagging her tail, trying to get kisses and cuddles. She settled into the house very quickly. I do believe this was due to the warm and kind aura Eleni gives. Freida had a very nice time over her weekend stay. With lots of reassurance for me with photo and video updates, kept my mind at rest. When it was time for Freida to come home, she didn't want to leave an ran upstairs to hide lol....that's how much she enjoyed her stay. We will definitely be using Eleni again, and i highly recommend her. Thank you Eleni, i will message you shortly to discuss future stays. Thank you Charlie & Freida xxx
