“Jenson had his longest stay with Serena to date and we felt comfortable leaving him in her care. She updated us daily and made sure to meet all of his needs, even though he can be a bit a difficult at times! Unfortunately Jenson needed a trip to the vets during his stay, due to a grass seed in his paw, but Serena and Colin took very good care of him and had no issues taking him to his registered practice. We would 100% recommend!”
“Lubomira spoilt my Maya rotten! I was showered with photos and videos the whole time I was away to keep me at ease and let me know what she was up to! Maya thoroughly enjoyed her stay. I have already rebooked!! Thank you very much for looking after my fur baby so well :)”
“After meeting Emma for our meet & greet, we knew that this was going to be completely the best option for our Golden Retreiver. We have nothing but high praise for the way Emma and her family looked after him and accomodated his needs while we were away. She went above and beyond for his exersise as well as his dietary requirements and he was looked after beautifully. We were provided with daily updates of photo's and videos and you could see that he was very happy to be there. I can't thank her enough and we will certainly be back again.”
“Second time Harley has stayed with Debbie & Gary- genuinely lovely people and treat Harley as their own- regular updates and photos show how happy Harley is staying with them-lovely beach walks and lots of cuddles, so reassuring that he is so well looked after 🥰”
“Jennny was amazing with our dog Peanut. This is the first time we had him stay somewhere with someone not familiar with him and Jenny made sure we were fully comfortable with everything. She kept us updated regularly on how Peanut was doing and her furry friend Honey was lovely and playful. Would highly recommend and never think twice about booking with Jenny!”
“Highly recommend Stephanie, she provides excellent care. Mabel had a wonderful stay and the updates given were wonderful. A lovely couple who clearly love animals. They provide a level of care and attention that is outstanding.”
“We have come home from holiday to a really relaxed and very happy cockapoo. Charlie had a great time staying with Mark and Karen with lots of nice walks and the company of Mark’s own dog with whom he has become best friends. I can’t thank Mark and Karen enough for the care and attention that Charlie received whilst he was staying with them, and for the daily updates and pictures they gave us whilst we were away. They definitely provided Charlie a real “home from home” and we have had no hesitation in asking Mark to allow Charlie to stay again when we go away for a further trip in September.”
“Marc looked after my dog, Watson, for a couple of nights and was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. He kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear Watson had a fantastic time with Marc and his dog, Codie. I would highly recommend Marc to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Ellie, is a lovely friendly lady who clearly loves dogs. She looked after my dog for 3 days and regularly sent me photos of her enjoying her stay. She has an enclosed garden where my dog liked playing ball. She took her out for interesting walks twice a day after which she was allowed to snuggle up on the sofa.”

About: I’m a fun, caring animal lover who just wants the best for all animals! I currently volunteer at the Blue Cross and I’ve previously run a kennels & cattery so am confident with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes and breeds. I’ve also worked for 2 zoos - one a mobile zoo with smaller animals such as reptiles and meerkats and the other a large zoo with everything from penguins to zebras so I’m used to a whole host of animal traits and characters, as well as meeting their needs. My work is very flexible and I work from home most of the time - if I do need to go out I often take the dog/s staying with me along, so they can enjoy a walk somewhere new at the same time🙂 My approach to looking after your pets? With love! Having had my own dogs since I was a child and more recently lost my elderly Mastiff cross Bordeaux, I know what it’s like as an owner to leave your pet with someone else. I therefore aim to make both you and your pet as comfortable as can be while you’re away and am very flexible to meets yours and their needs.
About: I’ve helped my parents walking our dog since he was a puppy. I’ll feed him on time and company him when his family aren’t around. I’ll make sure he has a familiar person during thunderstorms and fireworks. I’m currently working part time and will be free most days of the week. I’m an animal person so they fit in perfectly with my free time. I have a fenced and good sized garden where my dog can safely play and have fun. I make sure my dog has a walk and playtime. He has his food accordingly and a relaxing evening before bed.
About: Cats have always been a big part of our lives. We both grew up with cats from a young age and understand how much they become part of the family. We recently lost our rescue cat, who we adopted as a senior. She required daily medication and extra care, giving us valuable experience looking after older cats and understanding their individual needs and routines. We have also provided cat sitting both in our own home and in other people's homes, making sure cats feel comfortable, relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. We know that cats can be creatures of habit, so we always take the time to follow their usual routines and give them the attention and affection they need.
“Eloise is just perfect. She did an excellent job with Kaya and Coco, was always on time, and was willing to change the schedule last minute when necessary. Great updates and photos. Would recommend highly!”
About: I enjoy spending time with cats and am comfortable helping with feeding, playtime, cleaning litter trays, and giving attention and care. I am responsible, patient, and willing to follow instructions carefully to make sure pets feel safe and comfortable.
“Karen looked after my house cats for 2 weeks over Christmas. She was great. I came back to 2 well cared for boys and a clean house. She was in regular contact with photos and updates whilst I was away. Very professional and I highly recommend”
About: I’ve had cats since I was young and have always felt drawn to them. They are wonderful creatures and each and every one of them has such a unique personality. Rest assured when I’m caring for your cat they will be treated like the royalty each of them believe themselves to be. Cats can become very attached to a single person and dislike anyone else. It takes time to build that trust and I won’t push your cats boundaries. Im a very patient person and love to earn the connection with a cat. While you’re away your cat will be treated like family and I’ll make sure that they are happy and that you’re also happy with daily updates and photos. If your cat likes to play then we will get some toys and play, or maybe your cat just likes to have company and wants some pets. Whatever your cats requires I’m here to accommodate. Just let me know what your cat requires and it will be done. I look forward to hearing from you -Ben
“Paula was so very kind and caring towards our cat and helped very much even when he was unwell. She kept in touch and sent pictures and videos of him. We were so grateful to have her here with him for peace of mind. She even cleaned the house before leaving which was so thoughtful. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I've always had dogs or cats throughout my life and I currently am a cat mum. I thoroughly love animals and care for them a huge amount. I am currently working hybrid and have a flexible schedule, so happy to workout timings with you when a care is needed for your pet/s I can not have animals in my home as I have a cat and I don't think she would like any visitors unfortunately and it wouldn't be fair on her. For any bookings I would speak to the customer about any possible safety issues they know of in advance from their side.
About: I have taken care of a range of animals from the young age of 10. I have also cared and adored animals. I work from home which gives me much larger availability to care for my own animals and to give me time to care for others. I live at home with my mum so thankfully we also have someone in for my dogs/cats and I am able to do the same for someone else. I work full time but from home so I can easily manage my work around been attentive to animals which makes it much easier for me. Make sure they are safe in the environment they are in and and can bring no harm to themselves or others. Make sure they have good care.

About: I have been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was 14 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family regularly rely on my help when it comes to pet sitting, feeding, and taking dogs for long, active walks. In 2021, I gained experience working at a dog daycare for six months, where I learned how to manage groups of dogs and care for their diverse needs. I have experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs. I treat every pet individually, prioritizing their safety and well-being. Dogs are my passion, and spending time with them brings me genuine joy. Unfortunately, I don't currently have any pets. I would like to have a dog in the future but I can't afford it right now. I am currently studing, which allows me to be very flexible with my schedule. I attend classes only on Fridays and Saturdays, so I am fully available to care for your pets from Sunday to Thursday. I am dedicated to my personal growth and treat pet sitting with great responsibility, ensuring I have plenty of time for walks, play, and proper care throughout the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities. When caring for pets, I ensure a secure and calm environment tailored to their needs. I am a person who constantly learns and develops new skills to provide the best possible care. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a strict routine, keep a close eye on the animals at all times, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. If I am carrying for owners dogs I usually send pictures every single day to show that their pupils are safe and happy.

I train and play football for a local club but am happy to accommodate looking after your much loved pet around these commitments. From the beginning I will want to get to know your pet so I will spend time bonding with them, playing, talking and keeping them company.

This includes knowing feeding times, portion sizes and any dietary needs and health requirements, where and when they are walked and their comfort toys and sleeping habits. I will add details of your vet to my pet plan should a medical emergency arise. If your pet uses your garden I will check that the gate is closed and the fences are secure before letting them out and I will then supervise and clean up their mess. I will send you regular updates and photos and of course report anything of concern immediately. I appreciate that it's not only your pet that I am responsible for but also your home which I will do my best to keep clean and tidy and follow any house rules that you give me.

I also make sure all my pets are happy by buying them new toys each month! Additionally, I have experience with pets that need extra attention, including an elderly deaf dog and high maintenance breeds. Although I work full time, my shifts are either mornings or evenings, which gives me flexibility and time in between to provide attention and care. When caring for pets in an owners home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep the pets comfortable and stress free. I also like to know what the pets favourite toys and treats are so I can surprise them time to time!

About: Hi, I'm Charlotte! I've grown up with dogs, cats and other small animals, so caring for pets has always been a part of my life. I genuinely love spending time with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs. Alongside regularly walking dogs, my partner Joe and I also look after family and friends' pets whenever they need us to. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit or overnight care, we treat every pet as if they were our own, making sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after. We both work in the emergency services, so being reliable, trustworthy and dependable is second nature to us. We work around our shift patterns, which gives us flexibility to offer care throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings and weekends. We're based in Ardleigh, where we're lucky to have plenty of lovely countryside footpaths and quiet walking routes right on our doorstep. Whether your dog enjoys a gentle stroll or a longer adventure, we'll make sure they get the exercise, attention and care they deserve. We know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and we'd love the opportunity to get to know both you and your furry friend. Our shift work gives us a flexible routine that works really well with pet care. As we both work in the emergency services, we have different shift patterns, meaning there is usually someone at home and we can plan our time around the needs of each pet. We love being outdoors and regularly enjoy going on walks and runs around the local countryside, so having a dog to join us makes it even better. We have plenty of lovely walking routes around Ardleigh and enjoy giving pets the exercise, attention and companionship they need. We also don't have any children or pets so our lifestyle is very flexible. We know that every pet is different, and nobody knows them better than their owner. Before looking after your pet, we’ll always take the time to learn about their routine, personality and what makes them feel happy and safe. We’ll follow your guidance so they feel as comfortable and settled as possible. We have a secure, sizeable garden where they can enjoy some fresh air, play and explore safely. Our home is set back from the road, giving pets a quieter and safer environment, and we also have security cameras around the property for extra peace of mind. We’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, cuddles, exercise and downtime depending on what they’re used to. We understand that some pets need lots of interaction, while others prefer a little more space and a calm routine. When caring for pets in their own home, we know that staying in a familiar place can often be less stressful. We’ll keep to their normal routine, spend quality time with them and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Most importantly, we want your pet to feel happy and relaxed, and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re being looked after by people who genuinely love animals.

I am currently working hybrid and have a flexible schedule, so happy to workout timings with you when a care is needed for your pet/s I can not have animals in my home as I have a cat and I don't think she would like any visitors unfortunately and it wouldn't be fair on her. For any bookings I would speak to the customer about any possible safety issues they know of in advance from their side.
About: I have taken care of a range of animals from the young age of 10. I have also cared and adored animals. I work from home which gives me much larger availability to care for my own animals and to give me time to care for others. I live at home with my mum so thankfully we also have someone in for my dogs/cats and I am able to do the same for someone else. I work full time but from home so I can easily manage my work around been attentive to animals which makes it much easier for me. Make sure they are safe in the environment they are in and and can bring no harm to themselves or others. Make sure they have good care.

“Jenson had his longest stay with Serena to date and we felt comfortable leaving him in her care. She updated us daily and made sure to meet all of his needs, even though he can be a bit a difficult at times! Unfortunately Jenson needed a trip to the vets during his stay, due to a grass seed in his paw, but Serena and Colin took very good care of him and had no issues taking him to his registered practice. We would 100% recommend!”
“Tom was great in looking after our two dogs last minute! One of them is just a 15wk old puppy, and it was her first night away from us, but Tom was very accommodating and reassuring, and she seemed right at home. Will book again :)”
“We were very pleased with the care Gitana provided for our dog, Coco, over the two days he stayed with her. She kept us updated regularly with messages, photos, and progress reports, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the start that Gitana is both an experienced dog sitter and a genuine dog lover. Coco was well cared for, happy, and comfortable in her company. We really appreciated the attention, affection, and professionalism she showed throughout. I would happily use Gitana's services again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and experienced dog sitter. Thank you, Gitana, for looking after Coco so well! 🐾😊”
“Kezia looked after our Weimeraner, Salto, and we can't recommend her enough. This was Salto's first time away and as he struggles the separation anxiety, we weren't sure how he would cope. Well we had no need to worry, Salto settled incredibly quickly and had a fantastic time, he has come home super happy and relaxed, which is better than any review I can give. Kezia kept us updated the whole weekend with plenty of photos, which we really appreciated and nothing was too much to ask. I've already started looking at more weekends away and won't hesitate to use Kezia again. Thank you! ✨”
“Tanna and Shamel always take amazing care of our dog Potato, and she and Nala play so well together which is lovely to see! We felt very reassured that she was being looked after, and we were sent plenty of photos and videos. Always a great experience ☺️ thanks guys!”

“Lubomira spoilt my Maya rotten! I was showered with photos and videos the whole time I was away to keep me at ease and let me know what she was up to! Maya thoroughly enjoyed her stay. I have already rebooked!! Thank you very much for looking after my fur baby so well :)”
“Sarah was absolutely brilliant, this was the first time we have left Bella and she loved every minute! Sarah kept us informed how Bella was getting on and sent us many photos so we could see how much fun and relaxed she was on her holiday! Would recommended her to anyone, fantastic and very caring. Thank you Sarah 😀👍”
“Pepper had a fantastic stay with simon and family whilst we were away, easy drop off, regular updates whilst away and its always great to see photos of your dog cuddled up and relaxed. Genuinely could not have been happier. I returned to a very happy dog. If I could give 10 stars I would.”
“Jodie was wonderful with Lipa. She understood the potential issues with her age and kept in touch with me to reassure me. Lipa was extremely happy when we picked her up and we will definitely book Jodie again. Thank you so much!”
“Amadeusz watched our senior chihuahua for a bit over a week - I was nervous going into it because Ellie can be a bit wary of new people, but she settled right in with Amadeusz! We received regular updates on how she was doing, along with photos - it provided peace of mind that she was well taken care of in our absence. When our return was delayed due to problems with the flight, Amadeusz was very flexible and told us not to worry. We will definitely book again next time we need care for Ellie. Thank you!”
“Monty had a WONDERFUL stay with Caroline and Steph!! She sent photos and videos every day so we could see he was happy and loved whilst with them. We also had a late return and they were very accommodating with that, which was very kind. To top it all off, Monty has come back super well behaved - it’s amazing! No more jumping and he’s been so relaxed and good as gold which only confirms how well cared he was. We won’t hesitate in leaving him with Caroline again. Thank you both for loving our baby as one of yours!”
“Perfect… Barley loved his time with Hannah and the family and was definitely well looked after! Brilliant communication and attention to detail. I’ll be in touch for the next booking :-)”
“What can I say, Adele is outstanding. Sadly our senior had to be put to sleep while we were on holiday and Adele contacted me, and stayed with Pebbles as she crossed the bridge. I am so grateful as I was devastated that I wasn’t by her side. I will never be able to thank her enough for being a comfort to our little Pebbles in her time of need Xx”
“A lovely time! Excellent care. Very happy dogs. Sarah, Christian & their sweet dog Bella gave our two such a welcome. A real holiday for them both, with plenty of updates of their daily adventures. Plenty of exercise to keep our energetic spaniels content and a warmth from the family that was palpable. Thank you for such care.”
“Emma and Marco were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, and they provided overnight care for both of my Dachshunds, who thoroughly enjoyed their stay. My two dogs are quite confident and adapted to life with Emma and Marco with ease. We are very grateful to have found someone who was familiar with the breed and accepted their uniquely mischievous personalities.”
“Martin gives the absolute best care, a real home from home. I have such peace of mind when Pippa stays with Martin. I can really relax when away and receive regular updates and photos. I highly recommend Martin S for worry free dog care.”
“Dora had her second stay with Cathy and was so pleased to see her! Cathy sent photos of Dora looking very relaxed with Stan and I think she would have liked to stay longer! Cathy is kind and trustworthy. I definitely recommend her!”
