“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.”
“Veronika and her family were lovely and made Teddy feel very welcome. We were updated daily with lots of photos while we were away. I dont think Teddy wanted to come home.”
“I can safely recommend Ann to look after your dog. Nothing was too much trouble for her, and she sent me photographs every day of how my dog was getting along. She is a lovely woman, and her love of dogs is evident.”
“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!”
“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.”
“I couldn’t recommend Christina more! She made Otto feel at home in her house and he had a great time. Christina provided regular updates and photos which we loved!”
“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.”
“Carla and Jim looked after our 6 month old puppy for the weekend and we couldn’t have been happier with the love and care our Betsy received. 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.”
“I picked Rummy up from his most recent stay with Kane. As per usual, Rummy had the best time. I don't think he wanted to leave just yet! Kane and Stephen treat Rummy as their own and I recieve daily updates when i'm away. The relief knowing my boy is safe and sound is priceless when i'm on holiday. For me, Kane is the only option outside of family that I would consider when I need someone to have Rummy.”
“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’m sure if our dog Miro could talk he’d say how much he enjoyed another lovely stay with Linda and Craig. He comes back really relaxed and I’d recommend Linda always as she’s so tuned into the needs of Miro.”
“Indy was very well looked after and cared for during his stay. Cordelia took time to find out everything about Indy, his personality, likes and dislikes so we could feel at ease whilst we were away. He had lots of lovely walks and fun and we had regular updates and photos. I would definitely recommend Cordelia as a dog sitter and I’m sure we’ll leave Indy with her again. Thank you for taking such good care 🐾🐕”
“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 !”
“Tom and his partner were perfect dog sitters. Great with communication and updates, arranged a meet and greet before the booking so our furry family member could get to know them before staying at a later date. Asked all the right questions and answered any we had. We will definitely be using them again, oh and a wonderfully warm and clean home.”
“Mandy was amazing with our two fur babies. Rio is our rescue pup so can be a little nervous with new people but Mandy put him at ease straight away. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you Mandy ☺️”
“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.”
“It's been the 1st time of ever using this kind of service Dainora has been amazing, I was able to notice that Sasha had an amazing time with them, she never showed any kind of anxiety. I'm definitely be using her services again and will highly recommend it to anyone who needs it”

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.

“Evie was fantastic! I felt very comfortable about leaving my cat in her care as she had taken the time and effort to get to know her and what she would need whilst we were away. Evie was very reliable and seemed committed to doing a good job and we really appreciated that and so did Treacle, our cat! She was very relaxed and calm when we returned which was a testament to the quality of care she had received.”
“Jess C. Was an excellent sitter for Clyde. A very nice and pleasant young lady. She sent us regular reports and photographs. She left the house and a very clean and tidy state.

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’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 had a great experience with Carla and Jim! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care. From the start, they were incredibly friendly and approachable, which immediately put me at ease. They arranged a meet and greet beforehand, which was a really thoughtful touch and helped both me and my dog feel comfortable before the stay as it was my first time using Rover. During the time they were looking after my dog, they provided regular updates and photos, which was so reassuring and showed how well my dog was being cared for. It was clear that my dog was happy, relaxed, and getting plenty of attention. I really appreciated the level of care and communication throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Carla and Jim again and would definitely recommend them to other dog owners looking for someone trustworthy and kind to look after their pet! Thank you!”
“Really pleased with leaving Lulu with Katherine and Chris. She was superchilled when I came back having been away for 6 hours and will be delighted to leave her with them again. Also, received pics and updates throughout the day which was great.”
“Maggie and Toffee had a wonderful time. I booked very last minute and it couldn't have been better. They have a new bestie in Lincoln the Sausage 🥰 Super cuddles and walks and the pictures were so cute. Unfortunately I'm not local, but if I was I'd book again in a heartbeat. Bradley and Pip have a lovely home, perfect for a doggo holiday. Thank you so much Pip for loving them ❤️”
“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!”
“Excellent sitter, accepted last minute booking and an early morning start on a weekend. Enzo had lots of cuddles and wouldn’t leave Ella’s side which means he took to her really well :) would definitely recommend Thank you so much :)”

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!
“Wonderfully looked after our dachshund Wolfie came back Happy and relaxed. Sophie and Charlotte were kind and knowledgeable nothing too much trouble. They are excellent dog sitters and we couldn't have asked for better. Thank you”

“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”

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!
“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.”

May sound like a lot but there is never a moment of boredom. I work in Boston, 8:30-17:00 Monday to Friday.

“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.”
“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.”
“I picked Rummy up from his most recent stay with Kane. As per usual, Rummy had the best time. I don't think he wanted to leave just yet! Kane and Stephen treat Rummy as their own and I recieve daily updates when i'm away. The relief knowing my boy is safe and sound is priceless when i'm on holiday. For me, Kane is the only option outside of family that I would consider when I need someone to have Rummy.”
“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’m sure if our dog Miro could talk he’d say how much he enjoyed another lovely stay with Linda and Craig. He comes back really relaxed and I’d recommend Linda always as she’s so tuned into the needs of Miro.”
“Indy was very well looked after and cared for during his stay. Cordelia took time to find out everything about Indy, his personality, likes and dislikes so we could feel at ease whilst we were away. He had lots of lovely walks and fun and we had regular updates and photos. I would definitely recommend Cordelia as a dog sitter and I’m sure we’ll leave Indy with her again. Thank you for taking such good care 🐾🐕”
“Tom and his partner were perfect dog sitters. Great with communication and updates, arranged a meet and greet before the booking so our furry family member could get to know them before staying at a later date. Asked all the right questions and answered any we had. We will definitely be using them again, oh and a wonderfully warm and clean home.”
“Mandy was amazing with our two fur babies. Rio is our rescue pup so can be a little nervous with new people but Mandy put him at ease straight away. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you Mandy ☺️”
“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.”
“Willow loved her stay with Bradley & didn’t seem to want to come home! Bradley was very attentive & sent numerous updates throughout the duration of the stay. Willow will definitely be back again soon :)”
“Enzo had his first overnight stay and, although he can be a little anxious away from home, he settled in brilliantly with the sitter’s care. We really appreciated the frequent updates and videos, which reassured us he was happy and well looked after. Excellent communication and a very positive experience overall.”
“Another amazing stay for Brad. We drove into the street where Kayleigh lives and Brad is howling with excitement, he runs in without looking back. When I went to pick him up he didn’t seem happy to be leaving. We know he is always happy when he goes to Kayleigh she is amazing.”
“Leia always has a wonderful time in the care of Eszter and loves playing with Ivy and her other new doggy friends. Eszter sends lots of updates either photos and totally feel at ease she is looked after and happy”
“Rosie has had such a fun day!!!! Lovely walks and lots of fuss, she's certainly felt relaxed and at home. Jonathan and his wife looked after Rosie really well for the day. Thankyou 😊”
“Amazing service, our dog couldn’t have been in better hands, they went over and beyond our expectations and we would be delighted to use their service whenever we need a dog sitter. Great communication and photos throughout the stay and excellent care and attention given . Thank you once again”
“Bella had a great time with George. We were kept up to date with lots of pictures throughout the stay. We have already booked again for her next stay and can’t recommend George enough!”
“Linnet looked after our 7 month old pup whilst we went out of town for an event for the night. Being a Viszla X Collie our pup is highly energetic and driven but Linnet provided a safe place for him to be away from his usual home. Linnet kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the booking which was highly appreciated. ⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ definitely recommend”
