They were very quick to reply and also asked questions to understand what Alfie needs in order to take best care of him. We got daily updates which were lovely - Alfie seemed so happy. It went so well that we’ve rebooked for our little boy to stay with them again. Would definitely recommend them, they are lovely 🐾 ♥️”

“Very friendly and relaxed dog sitter, which was great for my more anxious dog. I got regular updates and my dog came back after clearly having a great time. Over three days my mind was absolutely at ease with Jas taking care of my dog. He was also very flexible when I was caught in traffic and late for pick up. Overall, I couldnt rate his professionalism and care of Joiner any higher.”
“As always, many thanks to Jo and Ross for taking such good care of our boy (10 year old black lab). He's always happy to go to stay and we have total peace of mind that he will be wonderfully well cared for while we are away. Many thanks again.”

“We are so grateful for Nicole. We hadn’t been away for a couple of years and didn’t expect Phoebe to respond the way she did, unfortunately she didn’t take it well and turned really defensive not allowing Nicole to get any close. We loved Nicole’s approach, she was very respectful of Phoebe’s boundaries and did what she could to make sure selle was fed. Luckily we were only away for a couple of days. Nicole was communicating with us throughout and sent us many updates on the situation. We could tell she really loves animals and wants their best. We definitely recommend her!”
About: I offer reliable drop-in visits for cats, giving owners complete peace of mind while they are away on holiday or at work. I have cared for cats throughout my life and understand how important it is to respect their unique personalities, boundaries, and routines. In addition to personal experience with household pets, my background in animal husbandry and welfare gives me a calm, patient approach to feline care. During drop-in visits, I handle fresh food, water, litter box cleaning, and gentle play or quiet companionship—depending on whether your cat loves attention or prefers their own space. I am dedicated to keeping your cat safe, happy, and relaxed in their home environment.

About: I have had pets since a very young age and have been in charge of walking, feeding, administering medicine and cleaning up after them. I recently also house sit for my friend with her cat and ensured they were well taken care of the entire time. I work in a school so am able to do walks after work at around 4pm. I am able to do stop ins before and after work if necessary and on my lunch break if not too far. I work Monday to Friday from 8:50 until 15:30 but am available all day on half terms. I am able to provide walks, feedings, brushing fur if needed and also taking out for toilets. I will play with the animal as well to ensure enrichment.

I spent many a day training my dogs, and helping them conquer fears. I find them to be fascinating creatures and love every moment I get to spend with them. I’m a full time shift worker, so can fit spending time with those wonderful Doggos at a variety of different times, all through the week.

“I couldn't be happier with the care my three cats received from Marsela! From the moment we met, it was clear that Marsela genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. All three of my cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well looked after when I returned. Marsela took the time to understand each of their individual personalities and routines, and it really showed. My home was left spotless, and I felt confident throughout my holiday that my cats were in the best possible hands. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Marsela to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional cat sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my furry family, Marsela!”
“Vikki was wonderful with both of my cats and having her visit them each day was a huge reassurance to me and my children whilst we were on holiday. Communication was fantastic and Vikki went the extra mile watering my plants and even trying to help fix my Catflap which malfunctioned due to a technical problem in the first few days of my holiday. She found a working solution for us until I get home. She kept me updated with photos and reports so I could see how the cats were doing and they were enjoying being fussed. All the cat food packets were cleared into the main bin and Vikki even popped my bin out on bin day. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Vikki again, or to recommend her to anyone who is looking for a reliable, friendly and caring Sitter.”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, with two chihuahuas, a border collie, golden retriever and Jack Russell in my family, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities and energy levels. I am particularly familiar with and interested in working and herding breeds such as collies and shepherds. Over the past five years, I’ve also looked after dogs for friends and neighbours, including walking, feeding, playing with them and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently share a retired military Belgian malinois, Charlie, with my aunt and uncle, which has given me even more experience with intelligent, energetic and active dogs. He stays with my aunt and uncle on any days that I’m dog sitting, so he won’t be present at the home while I’m caring for your dog. He may join us on walks if this is something you are happy with. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, whether that means energetic walks and playtime or plenty of cuddles and company. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want for my own, and I’m also happy to provide regular updates while they’re in my care I work flexibly from home and have plenty of time for walks and playtime. I am available all day Tuesday to Thursday. I will have no other dogs at home during these times. Pets will be under my supervision at all times. I have a secure, fenced garden and I only look after one dog at a time. I don't let dogs off lead until I can be confident in their recall with me. This will often involve taking them to a secure field after getting to know them for a while, and practicing recall. I keep a well stocked canine first aid kit at home.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands on experience caring for family dogs as well as my own. From daily walks to playtime and plenty of cuddles, I know how important it is to give pets the attention and love they deserve. Training has been a big part of my journey as a pet parent, so I’m patient, consistent, and always focused on keeping pets happy and well-behaved. Whether it’s exercise, companionship, or just some extra TLC, I’ll treat your furry family members like my own. I work part time 1-3 days a week and I spend the rest of my time going for long walks or going to the gym so have plenty of time in between. I have a shared garden with 2 elderly dogs but they spend more time in their own home and I have a 4 month old puppy who loves all dogs
“Junique was great with Lexi who immediately took to her. Junique kept me updated with regular updates & pictures throughout day & Lexi appear very happy & settled when collected her. Would definitely use again knowing Lexi in very safe hands.”
“Leigh came to meet my dog before my dog’s stay - much appreciated. The weather was extremely hot so she kept her cool and safe. Leigh kept in touch during the day and was considerate and flexible with pick up time.”
About: We have both been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have cared for all kinds of personalities — from bouncy, energetic walkers to calm, cuddly sofa companions. Friends, family and neighbours have trusted us to walk, feed and look after their dogs, and we genuinely love spending time with them. We have my own rescue pup who is around 9 years old and happy to have company. We are reliable, patient and always make sure dogs feel safe, happy and relaxed whilst you are away. Whether your dog needs long sniffy walks, playtime, routine and structure, or just plenty of fuss and reassurance, they’ll be treated like one of our own. We have two children 8 and 14 who are very happy to throw and ball and give extra fuss. Both children understand the boundaries with unfamiliar dogs and we are careful to make sure that they are always supervised with your dogs. We offer home boarding in a relaxed, family environment where dogs are truly part of the household. We work opposite shifts meaning dogs are never left for long periods and always have company, routine and attention. We are very lucky to have various outdoor areas around our house that dogs can explore freely. It is secure so even on hot days where a walk isn’t possible, we have a large secure sheltered paddock where we can walk and play with the dogs. I am a wellbeing dog handler for Hertfordshire fire and rescue so I have had the best training from dogs trust in various areas and have up to date skills and knowledge from all up to date research. Daily walks/play and cuddles are absolutely non-negotiable. Your dog’s safety, comfort and happiness are our top priorities. Our home has ample space, including additional separate areas if a dog needs extra room, quiet time or a slower introduction. We have a 9-year-old dog, Rolo, who is playful, friendly and happy to have company with the right introduction. All introductions are done calmly and carefully, and dogs are never left unattended together. If needed, dogs can be comfortably separated in their own space. We follow routines closely, are careful with feeding, walks, doors and supervision, and we always provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, settled and well cared for.

“Raeleen was brilliant and had to cope with an energetic pup. It was the first time our 9 month old had been away from us in day care so this increased the challenges. All credit to Raeleen controlling unwanted behaviours which she should not have had to deal with. Appreciate her commitment to fulfilling the booking.”

About: Hi! I’m Gina, a friendly and reliable animal lover based in Bedfordshire with a Level 3 qualification in Animal Science and hands-on experience working with a variety of animals. Through both my studies and work experience placements, I’ve gained experience caring for animals with different personalities, routines and needs. I’m confident handling dogs of different breeds and sizes and understand the importance of patience, safety and proper care. I’m passionate about making pets feel comfortable, happy and well looked after while their owners are away. Whether that’s walks, feeding, playtime, company or sticking closely to their usual routine, I always make sure each pet gets lots of attention and care. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with and happy to provide regular photo and message updates for peace of mind. Although I originally planned to pursue a career in animal care, I currently work as an estate agent in Cambridge Monday to Friday from 8am–5:30pm. During the week, I’m available for walks and drop-in visits around my working hours. I’m also happy to provide house sitting during the week if your pet is comfortable being left during these hours or already has daytime arrangements in place. I have full availability on weekends and can offer more flexible care, walks, drop-ins and overnight stays. I make sure pets are comfortable and stick closely to their normal routine, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime or company. I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs and always aim to keep them feeling safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos.
About: My hubby and I have many years pet experience between us. I ( Esther) grew up on a small holding with rabbits, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, pigs, goats, sheep, cows and horses. Andy has always had pet dogs. We have boarded dogs for Guide Dogs for 5 years and have now ventured into pet sitting and have 2 regular clients already. We are in our 50's ( just, for me!) and feel priviledged to be able to look after peoples loved ones in their own home whilst they are away. We look forward to hopefully be able to do the same for you too. We are both retired so are free and available the majority of the time Monday to Sunday including bank holidays, unless already doing another pet sit. We follow all instructions that you ask of us in terms of security and safety of your home/pets. We always keep dogs on the lead when walking them and don't take then out if the weather is too hot, unless we can do this in the cool of three day.
About: With over 13 years of experience as a dedicated dog owner, I’ve cared for pups of all shapes and sizes – from cuddly Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to energetic Labradors. I’m the go-to pet sitter and dog walker for my family, always ready for a stroll, playtime, or a cozy cuddle session. I understand the importance of routine, trust, and personalised care, and I treat every dog like part of the family. Whether your pup is playful, shy, or senior, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-exercised while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and routine comes first. I work from home Mondays and Fridays, so your pet gets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m also flexible on evenings and weekends, making it easy to work around your pet’s routine. Whether they need long walks, playtime, or a calm companion, I’ll tailor my schedule to meet their needs. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your furry friend is safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll take the time to get to know your pet’s routine, personality, and needs – whether they love long walks, gentle play, or just quiet company. I’m patient, reliable, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and happiness. From giving plenty of belly rubs to keeping them active and engaged, I aim to make your dog feel right at home. I also keep you updated with photos and notes, so you always know how your pet is doing. Clean, calm spaces, fresh water, regular potty breaks, and lots of love are all part of the experience. Whether I’m walking your pup or watching them for the day, I treat every pet as if they were my own.
“Nicole will be sitting our dog Charles in a few weeks, so we arranged a walk for them to get to know each other better and spend some more time together. Nicole was great and was keen to know more about Charles to make sure she could meet his specific needs. I let her know that sometimes he will bark if he feels unsure of another dog, and Nicole took this on board and gave him space and distraction from other dogs when she felt he needed it. Thanks again Nicole! Feel very comfortable that Charles will be in safe hands ☺️”

“Kellie and Andy were great and our black lab Alfie absolutely loved his time with them. They were very quick to reply and also asked questions to understand what Alfie needs in order to take best care of him. We got daily updates which were lovely - Alfie seemed so happy. It went so well that we’ve rebooked for our little boy to stay with them again. Would definitely recommend them, they are lovely 🐾 ♥️”
“Third time leaving Brooklyn (3yr gsd/husky mix) with Lauren and Matt. Second time for an extended period. Everything was just perfect. Highly recommended. Thanks again Lauren and Matt!”
“Very friendly and relaxed dog sitter, which was great for my more anxious dog. I got regular updates and my dog came back after clearly having a great time. Over three days my mind was absolutely at ease with Jas taking care of my dog. He was also very flexible when I was caught in traffic and late for pick up. Overall, I couldnt rate his professionalism and care of Joiner any higher.”
“As always, many thanks to Jo and Ross for taking such good care of our boy (10 year old black lab). He's always happy to go to stay and we have total peace of mind that he will be wonderfully well cared for while we are away. Many thanks again.”

I have looked after many clients, neighbours and friends' dogs & puppies! I have experience with dogs (including a wide variety of breeds), cats, rodents, reptiles and many more. During my 3 month trip to Thailand at the start of 2024, I was also able to help out with a lovely local animal rescue, feeding many stray dogs.

“I would highly recommend Charlotte as a dog sitter and will definitely ask her to look after our Weimaraner Luna again in future. Sometimes it can be hard to deal with her over excitement about new things and places but Charlotte made it easy. Communication was excellent, everything was very easy, friendly and professional! ☺️”
About: I previously had a wonderful senior dog, so I understand that not every dog wants (or can manage) long walks. As he got older, we adapted his routine to suit him, with shorter, gentler walks and plenty of time to sniff and explore at his own pace. He was also deaf in his later years, so I became very aware of how important it is to approach dogs calmly and thoughtfully to avoid startling them. That experience taught me to be patient. Whether your dog is young and full of energy or enjoying their senior years, I'll always take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy. I'll be available Friday to Sunday evenings, making me a great option for weekend walks, drop-in visits or evening care. I'll always make sure your pet gets the time, attention and care they deserve, and I'll keep you updated throughout. Your pet's safety and happiness will always come first. I have a fully fenced, secure garden where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. I'll always follow your pet's usual routine, whether that's feeding times, medication, favourite walking routes or any little quirks that make them unique. I understand that every pet is different, so I'll take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while they're in my care.
