“Diane looked after our dog Rufus for the weekend in her home. We received regular updates and photos which we were very grateful for. It was a hot weekend and Diane was so considerate of this, ensuring that Rufus was only walked in the cooler mornings/evenings. Rufus returned so calm and happy we would definitely use Diane again and recommend her to others. Thanks Diane!”
“Thank you Jan for taking such excellent care of our little lady. We feel so blessed to have found someone who is professional yet so caring and somehow instantly created a home from home for Lucrezia. Perfect! We look forward to her upcoming next stay.”
“My two had such a lovely time with Julie, they didn't want to leave! Julie kept us up to date with pictures of their stay and let us know how they were settling. I would highly recommend Julie and would happily book with her again.”
“My pup was so happy to stay with you it was like a mini holiday for her. I will be asking you to look after my dog in the future thank you so much for making her part of your family ❤️❤️❤️”
“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
“What can I say about Cookies stay. It was fantastic. Christina took such care of Cookie and put my mind at ease as this was the first time that Cookie has ever been left. Photo and video updates all day long. Which were very much appreciated. Andy, Christina's husband was great with Cookie too. They have a love for animals that shines through. I would recommend them to anyone. I will definitely be asking them to look after Cookie again with out hesitation. Thank you so much from me and Cookie. ❤️🐶👍😁”
About: Myself and my partner have both grown up around dogs. We look after family and friends dogs as well as our 1 year 8 month old Beagle called Rolo who we welcomed in to our family from 8 weeks old. He is treated like a prince👑 as will your furbaby while staying with us. Any training you’re currently doing or want us to start can be carried on whilst you’re on holiday. I am currently on Maternity Leave so I am able to give all the love and attention to make your furbaby feel comfortable, safe and at home. My partner Tom is home of an evening and takes Rolo (our dog) for his evening walk and gives him plenty of loving fuss as he will with yours! We have a fenced garden and have an energetic Beagle to keep your furbaby company while they’re here on their holidays. Crate trained dogs only please! Also If that’s something we can help you with we are more than happy to help. Your furbaby must be ok with other dogs and young children/babies. No furbaby’s in the bed but welcome on the sofa for a lovely cuddle and cheeky post walk nap (if they would like)!
“Marley was really happy staying with Jasmine and we will definitely want her to be able to look after her again when we need. We met Jasmine before Marleys stay and instantly thought she would be perfect and we were right. Jasmine is really lovely. Thank You.”
About: I’ve got experience with taking care of lots of different types of dogs as I have helped out with friends and family. I have always loved dogs from a young age and always treat any dog that i look after like my own - making sure they are fed and watered, walked daily and making time to play. I currently work part time (Monday - Wednesday) and I generally only have to go into the office on a Tuesday, therefore I can be at home every day apart from Tuesdays. I have a fenced garden and live in a safe and quiet little village just outside of Norwich. I don’t have any pets so your Dog will get my full attention :)
“Ernie had a great time with Lisa again. He’s excited in the car as soon as we get to the village. He had a nice trip to the beach and he was so comfy on the sofa when I arrived to pick him he didn’t even notice I was there lol.”
“Such a kind and thoughtful woman. Our dog is allergic to Christmas trees, and Andrea was so accommodating, that she moved her tree away from any areas our dog had access too. We got the feeling that nothing was too much trouble for her, and we're very grateful that she could take in our dog at such short notice. We would definitely recommend Andrea and her beautiful dog.”
“Nina and her family welcomed Teilo into the home with warmth and reassurance. Nina is experienced with, and knowledgeable about dogs and has a calm, confident and affectionate manner with them. Teilo settled in very quickly and got lots of walks, play and attention. It was great for him to be with Nina's two dogs who were friendly and accepting of Teilo in their home, as he doesn't often get time with other dogs. I got regular communication and lots of photos. I will be using Nina again and recommend her to anyone looking for a five star sitter.”
“Left our crazy spaniel with Kirsty for the first time the other day. Very happy! We were excited to be her first rover booking and we can safely say we Would definitely recommend! She went out of her way to make sure reign was comfortable and happy and got what he needed. She is a kind, bubbly, polite lady and you can tell how much she cares for the dogs. Again, would definitely reccomend and will be back again at some point, reign looks forward to it, thanks again Kirsty”
“My very nervous whippet Betty and bumptious terrier Carson, had a wonderful time here. First time and well settled in on sofa and on someone ‘s lap as shown in the photos sent to me with updates on their progress. I would have no concerns in recommending this very caring family home for dog sitting”
“Our little dog had the best time again with Ruth. She enjoyed being able to go in & out of the garden with Ruth. We have such peace of mind knowing she is so happy while we’re away!”
“I have a relaxed tired dog, who settled well. The communication was amazing to help reassure me that she was happy! Highly recommend and will book again. Thank you both and deezy!”
“Abigayle was absolutely brilliant. She was sensitive to Bobby,s needs and was very good with him when we arrived and he took to her straight away. I can’t praise her enough, it’s so good to find someone that I can trust when the need arises. 10/10”

“Elizabeth is very sweet and very accomodating! She accepted to pick up and drop off our cat, as we do not drive! She also sent us pictures, which was great, as we never left our cat to other people before! Would definitely recommend =)”
“Maya is friendly and seems very happy to pop in and look after our two bengals. They loved her, she played with them and sat with them for a while each visit, they were happy cats when we returned. We were all very reassured by Maya’s relaxed and confident approach, we were happy to leave the cats in her care.”
“Lily was amazing! She stayed in touch and her updates had lots of detail about the well being of Max and sent some great pics to show me that my boy was ok. I can not recommend Lily highly enough and will definitely be using her again.”
About: As a devoted cat owner myself, I understand the importance of creating a nurturing environment for feline companions. With two cherished cats at home, I bring not only professional expertise but also personal insight into your cat's needs and preferences. Meticulously maintaining litter boxes and providing tailored enrichment activities are just a few ways I ensure the well-being and happiness of your beloved furry friend. With a genuine passion for feline care, I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment that fosters trust and contentment in your absence. Your cat's happiness is my priority, and I'm dedicated to providing the same level of love and attention as I do for my own cherished companions.
“Fantastic! I had left finding someone til the last minute but Georgia was very accommodating and fitted me and Pickle in. Georgia sent some great photos of Pickle which kept me at ease whilst I was away, 10/10 will be using again and definitely reccomend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 11, and had cats around my whole life. I am an animal lover and I love meeting new cats and dogs. I work for an animal charity. 🐾 I work from home Monday - Thursday and have a flexible diary. I can offer dog walks, pet sitting at your house (no overnights sorry) and drop in visits to look after your pet and make sure they are comfortable, safe and happy whilst you’re away. My drop ins are 30 minutes. If you need a whole day but not overnight please pop me a message! Happy to offer house calls, walks and house sitting for both dogs and cats. Please note: I don’t stay over in peoples houses so please don’t book overnight bookings. I love all animals and look forward to helping you out with yours 😃
“Jackie was great with our kitten Mish, she sent lots of pics and even offered and went out to get some dry food for us as we’d run out whilst we were away! She also did some hoovering and made the bed up before leaving which was so appreciated and saved us some time when we came back from holiday all tired out.”
About: Me and my partner work from home full time and would love the company of a four-legged friend. I only ever take in one dog at a time, this means your dog gets 100% of my attention, the best spot on the sofa, and a routine that doesn't change just because they aren't at home. I keep my client list small and exclusive to ensure I can be available when you need it most. My home is a calm and quiet space, I have no dogs or kids of my own and live it a very quite estate on the edge of norwich. Whether we’re heading out for a long afternoon walk or just hanging out while I’m at my desk, your dog will be treated exactly like my own. They’ll have the run of the house and plenty of belly rubs. I have a completely fenced garden which they have access to as much as needed. I have a very cosy office with a sofa they have exclusive use of.
“Couldn’t fault Hannah and her fiance!! Was super nervous about leaving my cat at home, but I got constant updates and photos of my lil boy, all anxieties were calmed knowing he was safe 💗Communication was great and my (normally very shy cat) seems to have liked them too 💗”
“Jez was kind enough to look after my rambunctious devon rex kitten over the holidays and I could not be happier with how it went. Lots of communication and updates. I knew Cherry was in good hands!”
About: I love animals and have looked after my family cats and dogs for more than 30 years. I’ve boarded dogs for friends and family and ran my own dog walking and pet sitting business before I moved from the city to Sutton. I have always had an affinity with animals and believe that dogs instinctively know when you’re a friend. You can rest assured that I will love and care for your pet as if it were my own family. I will meet you and your dog/ cat and discuss all aspects of their care right through to their sleeping habits so that their environment and routine is not disrupted and will keep in touch with you during the period you’re away so that you can relax in the knowledge that all is well. I am at home with my dog and can adapt to your requirements. If you would like me to stay at your house then my dog will stay at home with my husband. If your pet comes to stay with us we will give them a loving home to relax and play. If your pet comes to stay at my house we have lovely walks around us and the beach is a 10 minute drive away. My garden is fenced and secure because I need that for my dog too. I will meet you and your dog and discuss their needs with you in advance and will complete a list of do’s and don’ts. If I’m to look after your pet at your home, I’ll arrange to visit before you go away so that you can take me through their routine and show me where they sleep and how they like to eat.
“We cannot recommend Kelly, highly enough. Prior to looking after Bentley, Kelly visited twice and got to know Bentley. Kelly asked pertinent questions and it was clear that she is an animal lover. On our return the house was as we left it and Bentley very happy. Thank you Kelly.”

“Toffee was relaxed with Julie's daughter and slept on the sofa beside her. I have no reservations in using Julie again or recommending her service. Julie and her daughter are well worth their fees!! Thank you Julie and look forward to using your service again soon.”

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine & nothing beats a wagging tail! Having spent 14 years as a professional dog walker in Surrey, we moved to Norfolk for my husbands job and a slower pace of life, but for me something was missing, my four legged friends. Treating your dog as my own, providing the love, care and attention, that they deserve on their walks and stays. I am DBS checked & having my own Public Liability Insurance for dog walking & sitting. I will provide a safe, fun and sociable service. Sometimes life just stands in the way of providing the time and attention your beloved pet requires. So come walk, feed or play, I will be there. Having moved here recently and settling into our new life in the country, I am not currently working, so it would fit in perfectly with a school run in the mix. I have a large fenced garden, with plenty of space to explore, with a miniature dachshund who loves to socialise and play. I have 2 children, aged 10 & 11, who love dogs, the outdoors & exploring.
“Amazing! Great giving me lots of information and asking questions prior to our first visit. So friendly and welcoming when dropping him off and then updates and photos in the day - just the reassurance I didn’t know I wanted! At pick up he was so happy playing barely noticed me! Will certainly be recommending and re-using Amy! 🖤”
About: Hi I’m Kelly, I have had animals since as long as I can remember, they have always been a huge part of the family. I am a stay at home Mum and so this enables me to give the animals constant love and attention. We live in an area full of beautiful places to walk the dog’s, we also have a big enclosed garden with tall fences. The animals have full roam of the house. We have one cat and one lovely dog called Mini - they live in harmony together. We do have a door that can separate the house into two areas if the animals that we look after don’t get along. Animals are my passion and I would love to be the house away from home for your fur baby whilst you are away. I would love to hear from you so please message me if you have any questions. References available on request so please do ask! I have experience looking after pugs (my mum has pugs too) french bull dogs, German shepherds, huskies, Labrador’s, labradoodles and jack Russell’s I am always happy to have a phone/ video call prior to booking so you are comfortable with me and the environment your pet will be staying in.
About: I love animals and animals love, me and my mum rescued a swallow once and still have many memories of it. She went from injured as a baby to being able too fly away. Pet care fits in to my weekly routine as I work many different shifts and I only work part-time. I live nearby a massive park and in a neighbourhood full of pets. I care for pets to the clients request and I have always had pets so I would care for my clients pets as if they were my own aswell.
About: I have been providing trusted pet care for family, friends, and neighbours since my teenage years. Growing up with three Staffies, I developed a deep understanding of dog behaviour early on. I have also loved and raised two dogs of my own: an Old Time Bulldog and, more recently, Trixie, our sweet Romanian rescue. I am highly comfortable with different breeds, histories, and rescue backgrounds. Our household is also home to two friendly indoor cats. one curious and one shy! We are also well-versed in feline personalities and boundaries. I would love to open up our home to care for your pets with the exact same love, attention, and dedication we give our own. My partner and I both work full time with a hybrid office and work from home schedule. Our routines are perfectly balanced so that at least one of us is almost always at home during the day. We can provide dedicated attention, frequent toilet breaks and walks, and companionship during the week and throughout the weekend. In our home, your pet becomes a true part of the family. We have a large, secure, fenced garden that is perfect for zoomies, sniffing, and safe playtime. Because one of us is almost always working from home, your dog will enjoy a natural, stress free routine filled with companionship, regular toilet breaks, and plenty of sofa cuddles. We absolutely love going for walks and will tailor the outdoor time to your dog's specific energy levels, whether that means an active trek or a gentle sniff walk. Since we have two indoor cats, we keep guest dogs in our main living areas and can use secure separation when needed to ensure everyone feels entirely safe and relaxed. When caring for your pets in your own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their normal, comforting routine. I will follow your exact instructions for feeding, medication, and sleep setups. For dogs, I love taking them out for their favourite local walks and ensuring they get plenty of outdoor exercise and stimulation. For cats and smaller pets, I dedicate focused time to interactive play or quiet companionship, depending on their personality. I am extremely respectful of your space, keeping your home perfectly clean, secure, and tidy. I will also send regular photo updates so you have total peace of mind 😊
“Ruth done a great job looking after Marley for the day, Normally Marley is very excited to see me when I come home but at Ruths when I went to pick her up she barely took any notice of me as she was so happy where she was. Ruth is very kind and gentle and obviously loves and knows how to look after dogs and I would highly recommend her. I have booked an overnighter already.”
“Pinar took such good care of our miniature dachshund bramble. She gave us lots of updates throughout, photos and videos. We felt like Pintar and her family looked after Bramble as if she was their own dog. Would definitely recommend her to anyone”
About: We’re lifelong dog lovers and take a considered, personal approach so each dog receives plenty of individual attention. My husband and I both work from home full time, meaning dogs in our care are rarely left alone and enjoy consistent company throughout the day. During the week, our home is particularly calm as our two children (aged 6 and 8) are at school. We share our home with our own 3-year-old dog, who is relaxed, friendly, and well socialised with other dogs. Our children have grown up around dogs and are gentle and respectful, understanding when a dog needs space. We are best suited to dogs who are comfortable in a family environment and around children. Our home is spacious, with several quiet areas where dogs can rest if they prefer their own space, as well as the option to stay close to us in our home office. We also have a secure, fully fenced garden for safe outdoor time. Sleeping arrangements are flexible and tailored to your dog’s usual routine. We follow a calm, consistent daily routine, including at least one walk a day, and we’re happy to maintain your dog’s normal feeding, medication, and care. Ahead of booking, we ask owners to share any special requirements so we can provide thoughtful, personalised care. We’re always happy to arrange a meet and greet to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. We both work from home full time with our own rescue dog who we take for daily walks, so always looking for more furry company! As already mentioned, you can rest assured your dog is in safe hands - our garden is fully fenced. We can also go for on-lead walks for your peace of mind.
About: Hi there! Thank you for considering me to take care of your beloved pet. Having grown up on a farm, I've been caring for furry friends all of my life and absolutely adore doing so. I have approximately 20 years of experience cat-sitting and 12 years with dog-sitting for friends and family. This includes kittens and puppies so I'm extremely confident caring for both. If you choose me as your sitter, I can guarantee I'll give them 100% of my love and attention, and keep them safe and happy whilst you're away. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pets, but please rest assured that I make it my highest priority to care for, protect and love your furry friend with all of my heart. I'm currently not working so I'm very flexible and have all the time in the world to care for your furry friend. I am happy to board, house-sit and walk your pet. I know how important it is to trust that your home is being looked after too. So, whilst staying with your pet, I will ensure that your home is kept clean and tidy, and promise to leave it the way that I found it. I swear to take extra care of your home and your critter as if they were my own. I'm very used to "puppy-proofing" rooms from years of practice! As for boarding, my flat has a balcony and is on the 4th floor so isn't ideal for pets that are used to outdoor space at home or puppies who haven't been potty-trained yet. It would be perfect for indoor cats! I have ventilators on my windows so can keep them shut for your pet's safety and am currently adding a chicken wire barrier to the balcony to avoid accidents. I also have an electric fan for hot weather. I don't mind having pets on furniture or in my bed if that's what they are used to. Who doesn't love a midnight cuddle with their critter?😸 I am happy to take your pet outside for walks and toilet breaks as often as they need (the stairs are great exercise!)
“We were travelling to Norwich for a family wedding but did not want to leave our French Bulldog Claude in kennels. Cara looked after him over the weekend. As soon as I met her I knew that he would be well looked after! I felt completely at ease and Claude was quite happy to stay with Cara. She was a wonderful sitter and a lovely person. Claude had a great time and we were able to enjoy our wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Cara. She went above and beyond to help us during our stay - even bringing Claude back to our Airbnb. Thank you so much you’re a star!”

“Lisa did a great job taking care of our 6mo labradoodle puppy, from taking the time to really get to know her requirements during the initial meet and greet to keeping us up to date with her walks/visits with lovely photos and detailed notes. 5/5, would entrust pet with Lisa again.”
“Thank you to Julie for taking our dog Duke out last week, Julie was great at getting back to us with messages and a great time keeper , would definitely highly recommend and keep in mind for future walks for Duke.”
About: I have a BSc(Hons) degree in Animal Behaviour, Management & Welfare, current pet first aid certificate and 12+ years experience as a dog walker/pet sitter I run my dog walking and pet sitting business full time, working weekdays and weekends. I have been self employed for over 12 years now. I look after pets in their owners home to ensure their normal routine can be followed as closely as possible to reduce stress and anxiety
About: I have taken care of pets all of my life, growing up surrounded by animals and dogs means I know their needs and behaviours. I have a genuine love and care for animals and treat every pet as my own. I have a Romanian rescue called Mila, she is 5 years old now and I’ve had her since she was a few months old. Mila came to me after a rough start in life, scared of humans and never walked on a lead before. Years of consistent training, patience and a lot of love has gone into the dog she is today - this has helped me to gain a good amount of experience to be able to deal with triggers, special requirements and understanding dog behaviour. I work full time however I am always open to discuss new drop ins/walks, I am out with my own dog 3 times a day on my two days off and we are happy for other dogs to join us. Drops in can be arranged on request. I am happy to drop in to your home for visits and walk dogs on or off lead depending on their recall/ owners wishes. I take their safety as seriously as I take my own dogs safety.
“Patryece is fantastic. Incredible with dogs and understands them well. Took on my Giant schnauzer, Lulu, who is a massive dog and quite a bundle of energy but Patryece was absolutely natural and brilliant with her. So pleased to have been able to get cover so quickly. And very good comms throughout. Don’t hesitate to book!”
About: I've grown up around animals from lambs and chickens to dogs and cats. I've also done dog walking for friends and family. Cared for dogs in animal shelters and adoption fairs. I've learnt husbandry care through my current degree in animal science and am constantly in close contact helping dogs into their harnesses and finding treats they enjoy at work in a pet store. I currently work part time and attend uni on Mondays + Tuesdays. Therefore Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays I'm unavailable for the first half of the day but happy to care for your pets in the afternoons as well as mornings during the rest of the week. As my calander follows term times I will be much more available during school holidays. So please don't put of reaching out just to check as I personally know how stressful it can be finding someone during holidays to look after your pet. I want to make you as the owner feel confident and secure and so will require information no matter the service I'll be providing in order to make sure we're all comfortable. Any rules, health issues or precautions that I may need to know I'll ask for and follow securely as no owner wants to worry about their pet or the person looking after them. I'm also more than happy to take photos and update you whenever they're in my care.
About: With 6 years of dedicated pet care experience, I bring a unique blend of compassion, expertise, and personalized attention to every furry friend I care for. Whether it's providing loving companionship for cats or engaging playtime for dogs, I tailor my services to ensure the happiness and well-being of your beloved pets. My commitment to their care and comfort sets me apart as a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. My availability spans every day of the week, from 9 in the morning until 6 in the evening, but I'm also flexible to accommodate your pet's specific needs and your schedule. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I'm committed to providing the care and attention they require, whenever it's needed. When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, I prioritize their comfort and safety by following any specific instructions provided by the owner. I ensure a familiar environment by adhering to the pet's established routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise routines, and any special needs or preferences. I maintain open communication with the owner, providing regular updates on their pet's well-being and activities to build trust and reassurance. I respect the home and belongings of the owner, keeping the environment clean and tidy throughout my stay. Additionally, I am vigilant about the pet's surroundings, identifying and mitigating any potential hazards to ensure a secure and hazard-free environment. By focusing on the pet owner's home, I aim to provide a seamless and stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner.
“Dogs know a good person when they meet one. Boycie had first walk with Rebecca and he didn't want to leave her. She is professional and know’s what she is doing. Highly recommended and will most certainly use Rebecca in the future.”
“Thank you to Amy (and her kids) for walking our dog Paco while he stayed at my parents in Aylsham. He can be a handful sometimes and difficult with other dogs, but I felt he was in safe hands. Amy sent photos and maps of the routes they had walked. Thank you!”
“I am very overprotective with my 2 pups and was very anxious to let someone else see to them. Trafford however was amazing! He took my girls out on 3 walks today, he let me know when he finished each walk and double checked with me about things that he didn’t want to assume was okay! Very polite and updated me on my girls throughout the day. Highly recommend and will be using again!”
About: I grew up in a dog-loving home with an Irish Red Setter rescue and a Doberman we raised from a puppy, so I'm no stranger to big dogs with big personalities. Over the years, I've cared for pups of all sizes, breeds, and ages—from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while you're away. A recent move means I am now taking on new clients in and around Norwich. Please see my reviews and reach out for a chat if I can help to care for your pup! I’m working from home, with plenty of gaps in between for toilet breaks and walks in the park - I like to get away from my desk when I can and would love for your dog to join me. I’ve been house sitting for a number of years, both through Rover (please check my reviews) and word of mouth from my existing clients. I will care for your home as if it is my own. I am happy to discuss carrying out tasks unrelated to your pup, too.

About: Hi, I’m Abigail! 🐾 After six years as a police officer, I decided to give up the uniform and follow my passion for dogs, the outdoors, and providing a safe, trustworthy service for pet owners. I provide a calm, secure, and welcoming home where your dog will feel completely at ease. Your dog/s will have constant care, attention, and plenty of affection throughout their stay. I’m home full-time, so your dog’s routine, safety, and happiness are always my priority. I have a large, fully secure garden with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, giving dogs plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy themselves safely. I share my home with my friendly Irish Setter, Rory, who is gentle, playful, and great with other dogs. He loves company and helps create a relaxed, social environment for visiting dogs. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages — from young puppies to senior dogs — and I’m confident supporting different needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter, slower pace, I will adapt to them. I come from a professional background where trust, responsibility, and safety were essential, and I bring that same level of care and attention into looking after every dog. 🐾 What you can expect: * A home-from-home environment * Dogs are never left alone * Secure garden for safe outdoor time * Walks tailored to your dog (on or off lead) * Regular updates, photos, and communication * Flexible and attentive care to suit your dog’s routine I’m very mindful that every dog is different, so I will always follow your instructions closely — from feeding and walking to sleep routines and preferences. I’m happy to care for dogs who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance — just let me know what helps them feel comfortable. We look forward to welcoming your dog into our home and giving you complete peace of mind ✨ Our calendar is kept up to date daily, and we’re always quick to respond to messages. We’re home seven days a week, so your dog will never be left alone. 🏡 A safe, secure, and relaxed environment My home is spacious and set up to give dogs a calm, safe place to settle in and feel comfortable. The garden is fully secure with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, so dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely. I live on a quiet, secluded street away from main roads, creating a peaceful environment that’s ideal for dogs of all temperaments. The garden is a great size for all breeds, with plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy a good run around. Large patio doors open directly onto the garden, allowing dogs to move freely between inside and outside when appropriate. They can also be closed to create a calm, cosy space for rest and nap times. Inside, the home is open-plan with plenty of room to relax, along with soft furnishings and lots of toys to keep dogs happy and entertained. For added safety, all human food is kept well out of reach, so you can feel confident your dog is in a secure and carefully managed environment.
About: I have been looking after animals my whole life. I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs of different sizes and ages. I used to rescue stray animals so I have been in contact with lots of animals over the years. I currently have 3 dogs (2 large dogs and 1 small dog) and 3 cats which I love very much. I also have experience looking after birds (mainly chickens) and rabbits. An interesting fact about me: A few years ago, I got accepted into the VET school. But I dropped out shortly after to pursue another dream of mine. I started considering pet sitting during the pandemic. Because I now work 100% remotely, I felt I could do something else with my spare time. Since I love being around animals, I thought pet sitting might be something I could do as I have experience looking after animals, and I love spending time with them. I'm currently working from home, so I have the flexibility to organise my day the way I want. I have full flexibility over the weekend because I am off work, but I can manage pet sitting tasks during the week as well. I can only care for a pet at the owner's house. I would normally agree with the owner on a schedule. The last pet sittings I have done have been at the owner's house. They would usually let me know the dog's needs, how many times a day it needs feeding, walking etc. I was also able to provide medication. I was happy to look after the house, take out the bins and collect the post while the owners were gone. We also agreed I would update them with a daily picture of the dog and let them know how the day went. Owners have different requests so I always make sure I understand their needs before I get booked in and actually move into the house. So I try to adjust based on every pet sitting request I get.

About: Hi! All my life I've had pets in the house, always at least one dog and more recently a lot of other animals as well, including cats, horses and chickens! I have a BSc in Animal Behaviour and Welfare as well as experience fostering dogs with various medical issues, including blindness and broken limbs. Friends and family have asked me to look after their pets as well from time to time, and I adored their pets almost as much as my own. For a time I lived in Cyprus and while I was there I volunteered at the pony club and one of the local dog shelters. Playing with the dogs was so much fun, despite the heat. I'd love to meet and look after your pets (and give them lots and lots of cuddles). I am also DBS checked and insured I'm currently working part time, and my job usually involves evening shifts, so I am available most days and times. I am quite flexible at the moment! I will do my best to keep to your pets' existing schedule to keep them as comfortable as possible. Even if this includes just walking them in areas where they are most comfortable, that's absolutely fine
“Maisie absolutely loved her time with Georgia. She sat waiting excitedly by the front door to go out on her adventures and came home contented. Georgia was fantastic with Maisie, responsive to my messages and put me at ease leaving her. I would not hesitate to book Georgia again.”
About: At the age of 18 I became a dog groomer, I did this for a few years while situated at a dog training/doggy day care facility, so have always enjoyed being around the hustle and bustle of dogs! After stepping down as their resident dog groomer, I focused on dog walking and their doggy day care. When the business shut down, I became a self-employed dog walker and did this for a further 6 years. I took a couple of years break due to relocating to norfolk but I am keen to begin working with dogs again and pet sitting! As I have a work from home job, I can easily take my work anywhere and pet sit from your home, all while providing the best care for your pup. After taking a pet first aid course, I have gained so much knowledge when it comes to keeping your dog safe. I am willing to take any precaution, or step needed by the owner to reassure them that their dog is in loving and safe hands!
About: Animal lover with a degree in zoology, I have a professional background in animal care in shelter, rescue and zoo settings.

Fitting dog sits around my full time job so my availability varies. I have recently graduated from university and have a very flexible schedule. Currently care for my three dogs and a small collection of exotic pets on behalf of others. I have a lot of experience caring for a variety of animals with different behavioural needs and able to identify individual needs based on exhibited behaviours to best care for each animal.

“Thank you Jan for taking such excellent care of our little lady. We feel so blessed to have found someone who is professional yet so caring and somehow instantly created a home from home for Lucrezia. Perfect! We look forward to her upcoming next stay.”
“My two had such a lovely time with Julie, they didn't want to leave! Julie kept us up to date with pictures of their stay and let us know how they were settling. I would highly recommend Julie and would happily book with her again.”
“My pup was so happy to stay with you it was like a mini holiday for her. I will be asking you to look after my dog in the future thank you so much for making her part of your family ❤️❤️❤️”
“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
“What can I say about Cookies stay. It was fantastic. Christina took such care of Cookie and put my mind at ease as this was the first time that Cookie has ever been left. Photo and video updates all day long. Which were very much appreciated. Andy, Christina's husband was great with Cookie too. They have a love for animals that shines through. I would recommend them to anyone. I will definitely be asking them to look after Cookie again with out hesitation. Thank you so much from me and Cookie. ❤️🐶👍😁”
About: I’ve got experience with taking care of lots of different types of dogs as I have helped out with friends and family. I have always loved dogs from a young age and always treat any dog that i look after like my own - making sure they are fed and watered, walked daily and making time to play. I currently work part time (Monday - Wednesday) and I generally only have to go into the office on a Tuesday, therefore I can be at home every day apart from Tuesdays. I have a fenced garden and live in a safe and quiet little village just outside of Norwich. I don’t have any pets so your Dog will get my full attention :)
“Ernie had a great time with Lisa again. He’s excited in the car as soon as we get to the village. He had a nice trip to the beach and he was so comfy on the sofa when I arrived to pick him he didn’t even notice I was there lol.”
“Such a kind and thoughtful woman. Our dog is allergic to Christmas trees, and Andrea was so accommodating, that she moved her tree away from any areas our dog had access too. We got the feeling that nothing was too much trouble for her, and we're very grateful that she could take in our dog at such short notice. We would definitely recommend Andrea and her beautiful dog.”
“Nina and her family welcomed Teilo into the home with warmth and reassurance. Nina is experienced with, and knowledgeable about dogs and has a calm, confident and affectionate manner with them. Teilo settled in very quickly and got lots of walks, play and attention. It was great for him to be with Nina's two dogs who were friendly and accepting of Teilo in their home, as he doesn't often get time with other dogs. I got regular communication and lots of photos. I will be using Nina again and recommend her to anyone looking for a five star sitter.”
“Left our crazy spaniel with Kirsty for the first time the other day. Very happy! We were excited to be her first rover booking and we can safely say we Would definitely recommend! She went out of her way to make sure reign was comfortable and happy and got what he needed. She is a kind, bubbly, polite lady and you can tell how much she cares for the dogs. Again, would definitely reccomend and will be back again at some point, reign looks forward to it, thanks again Kirsty”
“My very nervous whippet Betty and bumptious terrier Carson, had a wonderful time here. First time and well settled in on sofa and on someone ‘s lap as shown in the photos sent to me with updates on their progress. I would have no concerns in recommending this very caring family home for dog sitting”
“I have a relaxed tired dog, who settled well. The communication was amazing to help reassure me that she was happy! Highly recommend and will book again. Thank you both and deezy!”
“Abigayle was absolutely brilliant. She was sensitive to Bobby,s needs and was very good with him when we arrived and he took to her straight away. I can’t praise her enough, it’s so good to find someone that I can trust when the need arises. 10/10”
“Our border terrier Clover had a great time with Lillia. She sent us lots of photos showing Clover relaxed and happy. The family all listened to our explaining Clovers needs and foibles and I would definitely leave Clover with Lillia again. Highly recommended.”
“We left our shepsky Koda in the care of Sylvia and her family while my family and I were on holiday for two weeks. I could see that Koda had a fantastic time through the pictures I was regularly sent. I received frequent updates and came home to a wagging tail. Thank you Sylvia.”
“Kobe had such a wonderful stay with Mat and his family. Prior to boarding we arranged a pre-stay meeting which was great and really helpful, from that initial meeting I knew Kobe would be very well looked after. Throughout his stay Mat kept us updated with Kobe's progress and sent lots of pictures which was so lovely. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be using Mat again for boarding, so long as the crazy pup is welcome ??. Thank you all so much for looking after our boy.”
“This was an emergency booking. Charlotte suggested bringing Molly the day before for a sniff around and to meet us. Molly is an anxious dog and Charlotte gave her the time and space to explore. From the moment I took Molly into Charlotte’s home I felt reassured. She created a little area for Molly with her cushion, blanket and toys. There was also water available. Molly was happy to stay with her which was a relief. I got lots of updates and she clearly had a lovely time. Charlotte was so sensitive to Molly’s needs and didn’t put any pressure on her to do things she didn’t want to do. Over the two days Molly really grew in confidence. Molly has also had pancreatitis and Charlotte both understood and was prepared to give her painkillers if needed. I cannot thank Charlotte enough for the great care she showed Molly and would highly recommend her.”
“Kika was made welcome and well cared for with Cherie. She got on well with everyone including the cats and Trixie the dog. We received regular updates and pictures of Kikas stay. We were very happy and would definitely leave Kika in Cheries care again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Elliott and Fran. They were incredibly friendly, reliable, and took such great care of our dog, Maisie. It was clear that Maisie was happy, comfortable, and well looked after while we were away. We really appreciated the updates and the genuine care they showed. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and will definitely be booking again!”
