“Tracey has been amazing with my dog Patch. Top class care! Tracey sent me updates and photos every day which a hugely appreciated as we rarely leave Patch behind when we go away. Having Tracey in our house was also good as Patch stayed in his local environment with his own home comforts. Tracey was very respectful of our house. I would highly recommend Tracey to anyone as we have come home to a very happy dog who has obviously been well cared for.”

“We booked Oliwia very last minute for a home stay and she was fantastic! She made sure to fit in a meet and greet before hand and was very professional, accommodating to our needs, reliable and simply lovely! We would highly recommend her and would love to have her look after our boys again in the future.”


“Millie looked after our pets really well whilst we were away. It was the first time we’d left them with anyone other than family and she was amazing even with our youngest who can try to wrap you round his little paw at times. They obviously adored her and she treated them as though they were her own. She provided daily feedback and pictures which was lovely to see. Would definitely use again in the future.”

“Such a friendly young lady Looked after Danny for 2 nights was only too happy to have him curled up with her Will definately be welcoming her back whenever l need a sitter for Danny again if shes available”

“Lauren was accommodating and professional looking after all of our animals. Her communication was excellent and worked well for us. Otis had a great time, with plenty of walks and time outside and the ducks were well looked after (and hopefully provided some novel entertainment). Lauren also left the house clean and tidy which is much appreciated!”
“Olivia is an absolute wonderful young lady and I trusted her immediately. We will definitely ask her again to look after our Weim, he was completely relaxed around her. Thanks a lot, Oliva!”

About: Hi, I’m Maria. My husband and I live in Hanwood Park, and together we offer a calm, loving, home-from-home environment where dogs and cats are truly treated as part of the family. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of many breeds and personalities — Schnauzers, Cocker Spaniels, Shih Tzus, Boxers, Lhasa Apsos, Weimaraners, and more — as well as cats. Over the years, friends and families have trusted me with their pets again and again, knowing they’ll be loved, understood, and cared for with patience and attention. What matters most to me is that every dog feels safe, relaxed, and emotionally settled while they’re with us. A Home Built on Trust, Not Just Care I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else — they’re family, not “just a pet.” That’s why I’ve always focused on building long-term trust and familiarity with the dogs I care for, rather than quick, one-off stays. Because my husband and I work as a team of two, your dog benefits from: 🐾Constant human presence 🐾Consistent routines 🐾A calm, stable home environment 🐾Never left alone for long periods 🐾Plenty of affection, cuddles, and gentle play 🐾Walks tailored to your dog’s routine and energy level 🐾Access to a garden for fresh air and relaxed time outdoors 🐾Care adapted to your dog’s personality — playful or quiet, young or senior 🐾Regular updates, photos, or videos if you’d like We especially love caring for dogs whose owners are looking for consistency and continuity — a familiar home they can return to whenever you travel, work, or need support. When a dog stays with us, they’re not just being looked after — they’re welcomed into our home and cared for with patience, kindness, and respect. If you’d like to arrange a meet & greet or ask any questions, I’d be very happy to hear from you. We look forward to welcoming your dog My husband and I both work from home, which means your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. We naturally build pet care into our daily routine, including walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding schedules, and quiet rest time. We’re available for boarding during weekdays, weekends, and longer stays, and we always aim to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. We provide a calm home environment with a secure garden, consistent routines, and lots of gentle attention and affection. Because there are two of us, pets are never left alone for long periods and always have someone nearby for reassurance and care. We take time to understand each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so they can feel settled, comfortable, and truly at home with us.
“Molly kept in contact with us before and during her visit. My two seemed very comfortable with her and enjoyed her company, it was very reassuring and seeing the photos. Very appreciative of molly for helping us out”

About: I am a compassionate, reliable, and experienced animal care professional with over 8 years of experience working as a Veterinary Nurse, alongside my current role as an Ambulance Clinician. Caring for others has always been at the heart of what I do, and animals have been a lifelong passion of mine. My veterinary background has given me extensive experience caring for animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, including those with medical needs, anxiety, or additional care requirements. I am confident administering medication, recognising signs of illness, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Working as an Ambulance Clinician has strengthened my calm, responsible, and trustworthy nature, especially in high-pressure situations. I understand how important it is for owners to know their pets are in safe hands, and I treat every animal with the same care and affection I would give my own. Whether it’s walks, feeding, overnight stays, playtime, or companionship, I provide attentive, personalised care and genuinely love building bonds with animals I currently work shifts as an ambulance clinician, when I schedule pet care it will not be during my working days. My days when I am providing pet care will revolve around the animals normal routine or as close as I can. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication (if required), and any special care instructions. I make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a secure space to rest, and plenty of attention, enrichment, and supervision. I have a fenced garden and have access to open fields with wooden fencing. When caring for pets in an owner's home, I respect the home and maintain the pet's usual routine to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress. I keep owners updated with regular messages, photos, and reports. Safety is my priority, so I monitor pets closely during walks, playtime, and interactions with other animals, and I follow all instructions regarding health, behavior, and emergency contacts
“Saffron saved me after being let down by a different sitter just over a day ahead of my trip, she was great company for Luna while I was away, house was practically undisturbed. Enthusiastic and had plenty of questions to ask. Will certainly be contacting again in the future!”

About: Over 20 years experience with animals large and small. I’ve owned horses, dogs, cats and guinea pigs. I adore all animals, their happiness is my priority. I will put your pet first at all times Their happiness is priority I can be flexible as I am self employed I fir around them I have a fenced back garden with lots of accessible foot paths I live in a village Can stay with your pet for as long as need be
About: I’ve grown up around dogs for the past 20 years. They have been a presence in the family since I was 12, so caring for dogs feels completely natural to me. I’m confident with walks, feeding routines and adapting to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I’m reliable, calm and communicative, and I’ll always keep you updated so you feel completely comfortable while your dog is in my care. I’m working towards saving up for a dog of my own, and I genuinely care about giving every dog consistent, attentive care you'll feel confident booking again. Because I’m self-employed and work from home, I have a very flexible routine and can prioritise the dogs in my care. On available days, dogs won’t need to be left alone and will have consistent company and supervision throughout the day. Walks, feeding times and play are planned around their needs, and I’m happy to stick closely to your dog’s usual routine. This flexibility means I can accommodate boarding, day care, walks and drop-ins with reliable timing. Whether it’s a short visit, a walk, a day of care, or a longer stay, I’ll take dogs on their usual walks or explore nearby dog-safe routes, giving them exercise, enrichment, and companionship every step of the way. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for every dog in my care. We have a fully fenced, secure back garden with a lawn where dogs can play safely, and they’re welcome in any room of the house. Dogs may be allowed on the sofa if that’s what they’re used to at home, but not on the bed. Dogs are supervised at all times — they’re treated as house guests and will be the only dog in our home at a time, so they get all the attention and care they need. I can administer medications if required, follow flexible feeding routines, and adjust walks to suit their age, size, breed, and ability.
“Jo took exceptional care of my boy, Benji, while I was on holiday. He was happy, content, and clearly well looked after. The photos she sent really showed how much she cared for him. Before the stay, Joanna even took the time to visit and get to know Benji on his terms, asking thoughtful questions about his needs—and meeting every one of them throughout. I would absolutely recommend Joanna to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter. Benji would too—especially as he thoroughly enjoyed his unlimited carrots!”

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience raising my own dog, Bruno, from a young puppy. I’m comfortable with training, daily routines, and giving personalised care to dogs of all ages. Caring for pets is at the heart of my daily routine—I look after them for a living, and my day happily revolves around their schedules. I provide care right in your pet’s own home, ensuring they stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Since I have my own dog at home, I focus on keeping your furry friend company, following their routines, and providing a safe, trustworthy environment. Whether it’s crating if needed or just giving them lots of attention, I make sure they feel right at home.
About: I am an experienced home boarder of over 9 years, licensed by North Northants Council (License Number 21/00355/AWBH), and have been awarded a 5 ⭐️rating. I've been raised alongside dogs. I have an abundance of repeat customers with happy dogs. I often see the owner having to drag them away from my door because they want to see me which is a testament to my treatment of them. Always plenty of walks, lots of fuss, cuddles and playtime. DBS checked. Also experienced in house sitting, pet visits and dog walking. I have looked after many dogs over the years with behavioural and/or walking issues and I always endeavour to try to get to the root of their issues with lots of reassurance, love and common sense. If house sitting, I am happy to cater for any other pets also at the property at the time of visiting. All dogs for home boarding or doggy daycare must have an up-to-date vaccination certificate. Also, dogs staying in excess of 3 nights, will be subject to a trial night beforehand to ensure that we bond together well (usual rate fee to be paid). Please also remember that my fees include the additional cost of my licence from the Council with all relevant updating and approvals carried out, full and comprehensive public liability insurance, plus the fact that I am not caring for your dog as an additional second income, or because I’m working from home- it’s because I’m passionate about dogs and their welfare 🐾🐶💕 Bookings are already being taken for 2024, so please book early to avoid disappointment. All meet and greets are free of charge, available at a convenient time for you, even at weekends. My days are entirely devoted to your dogs. I occasionally have other dog walks for Clients, but I will include your dog, if at all possible. It is unusual for dogs to be left alone for more than an hour as my partner and sister are on hand to help. All dogs are treated as part of the family. If allowed on furniture at home, then they are at mine. I endeavour to stick to the owners routine and requirements at all times but, ultimately, its the happiness and welfare of the dogs that is important to me.

About: I have had two doggies for the last 12 years. My eldest dog went over the rainbow bridge a few months a go and I’m really missing having doggy walks and company. I work part-time as an exam invigilator a few months of the year, have a car and feel I’d like to offer my care to some pets in need. I prefer to work with smaller breeds, with up to two smaller dogs at a time or one cockerpoo size. I would be happy to come and spend time with your furbaby whilst you are at work or on a day trip. We can have a play, chill out or go for a walk. It’s entirely up to you and your dog. I am happy to spend time with dogs of all ages. I am working as an exam invigilator for a few months of the year and have my own car. My children are now grown and they and my husband are now out all day. I regularly look after my father who is 86 one day an week and take him to hospital appointments. Other than this I am available to pop in and look after a dog or two. Take them for a walk or just give them some company. I am happy to care for pets in their own environment. I find that pets seem to be happier if they are in their own environments.
