About: Hi there, I had a cat called Sylvester and a black Labrador called Rocky growing up. Both lived to very old ages. I have since been a cat sitter for multiple cats, boarding at homes for different families, and a dog walker and sitter for a friend’s dog, Tovey, from when she was a puppy onwards. I work from home Wednesday-Friday and am generally at home on the weekends. If you have a dog I would take it on walks to the park and river. I have a ground floor flat with a fenced garden. With a door directly into the garden your pets can wander inside and outside while remaining in a safe environment.

About: I’ve been around cats my whole life and understand their unique personalities—from playful kittens to independent adults and shy or senior cats who need extra patience. I know that cats thrive on routine, gentle interaction, and trust, so I always take the time to connect at their pace and respect their comfort level. Whether your cat loves interactive play, cozy cuddle time, or quiet companionship, I adapt to their needs. I’m attentive to details like feeding routines, litter box care, grooming, and medication if needed, and I keep everything clean and stress-free while you’re away. I treat every cat like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and understood.
“Nena was abs wonderful.This the first time we’ve had a cat sitter whom we didn’t know.From day 1 it was evident that Boson was extremely happy with Nena, his new best friend.We had daily reports and motorised purr vids lovely for us to hear !He’s a v discerning 14 year old Tonk so we’d rate Nena highly as a cat sitter😹and def ask her again! ”
“Lucia was an absolute gem while I was away! She cared for my two cats, Chubby and Miso, with such tenderness and attention. I could tell she was not only reliable, but also genuinely kind and gentle with them. Chubby can be a little affection-hungry, and Miso is more shy, but Lucia took the time to understand their personalities and made sure they felt safe and cared for. I came home to two happy, calm cats and a tidy home—what more could I ask for? I wouldn’t hesitate to have her sit for them again!”
About: I’ve had pets throughout my childhood, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. I also have 3 years of pet sitting experience, and I understand that cats need more than food and a quick check-in — they need someone who respects their routine, their space and their personality. I’m calm, patient and attentive. I won’t force attention, rush them, or treat them like “just another booking”. Some cats want cuddles and play, some prefer quiet company, and some need time before they trust you. I’m happy to meet them where they are. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter changes, playtime, check-ins, cuddles if they want them, and photo updates for peace of mind. Your cat gets proper care, a clean space and a kind human around — not just someone opening a tin and leaving.
“Tina was a brilliant sitter to our two indoor cats, who quickly got used to her caring presence. It was so lovely to receive her photos and updates and see how comfortable and engaged the cats were. Although we were gone for a longer period, the cats did not dem to mind and were their usual selfs upon our return, thanks to Tina. I would wholeheartedly recommend her and will definitely rebook, if and when the occasion arises and Tina has time for us again.”

About: Hi, I’m Romina 😊 I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always grown up with pets. I’ve mainly looked after small and medium-sized dogs, but I also really like larger dogs and would be more than happy to care for one. Since moving to England, it’s been a bit more difficult to have a pet of my own, so I’d love the chance to look after other people’s dogs, give them plenty of affection, and enjoy spending time with them. I enjoy playing with them, taking them out for walks, and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well looked after - just like they would at home. I’m also happy to handle feeding and follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. I currently study online, which means I have a flexible schedule and can adapt to different needs. I may also be available on some bank holidays, depending on availability. I’m a patient, responsible, and caring person, and I would look after your dog as if they were part of my own family 🐶💛 If you have any questions or would like to know a bit more about me, I’d be very happy to chat! I study online during the afternoons and evenings, so I have plenty of time during the day to stay with your pet or take them out for walks. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be a priority. I’ll make sure to follow their usual routine and your instructions, from feeding and walks to playtime, rest, and any special needs. I’ll also take the time to get to know their personality and respect their individual needs and boundaries, so they can feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and videos throughout their stay, so you can see how they’re doing and have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’ll treat every pet with patience, kindness, and care, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable during their time with me. 🐾

About: I'm an experienced dog and cat sitter. I grew up taking care of my cats and my family's dog which taught me how to properly look after them and make sure that they feel loved! I moved to Cambridge in 2023 and since then I have pet sit (both cats and dogs) for several people, and I'd love to care for your furry friend too! . If you chose me to look after your pet, I'll provide pictures and updates, as I know how stressful being away from them can be. Whether you're going away and need someone to care for your pet for a few days, or you just need my services as a dog walker, I'd be happy to have the opportunity to be the one to care for them. Taking care of animals brings me genuine joy and I assure you that your pet will be treated with lots of love! I have recently finished my sixth form studies so I'll be completely free to take care of your pets for the time being. However, during the moth of May I'll be only available to walk dogs or provide drop-in visits. On the days 17, 18 and 19 I'll also be able to provide doggy day care (1 day). Starting June, I'll be able to dog and cat sit normally. I live on a lovely flat that I only share with my mother. It has enough space for a small or medium dog or a cat to be happy and comfortable and live peacefully without disruption. We also have access to a private garden and there are several parks nearby that are perfect for walks.

About: I've had pets all my life. I grew up with two cats, and have had a labrador ever since I was 14. I have lots of experience working with dogs with behavioural issues as I regularly sit for a family member's dog who can be very aggressive. I have a very calm temperament and find that pets feel safe and relaxed around me. I take real care in making sure that each pet is treated individually and feels happy and safe. I have a real interest in animal behaviour and feel this will help me understand your pet! I have experience walking tiny dogs as well as very big dogs! I am strong and good at controlling big dogs who pull, while also understanding tiny dog syndrome😂 I also have a real love for cats, and would be more than happy to keep your cat company 🥰🐈⬛ I am currently on a gap year and have lots of spare time. I am able to work around you and your pet. I am around during daytime as well as night. I have a fully fenced garden which is too high for any dog to climb over. I have a female Labrador called Ginny who is incredibly friendly and submissive. She gets along with all dogs.

“Rocio did a great job walking our puppy Poppy. We received lovely photos and updates of her walks and it is clear she had a great time exploring Cambridge! Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since childhood, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. From energetic puppies and loyal adult dogs to curious cats and small pets, I truly enjoy building a connection with every animal I meet. I’m an active person who loves going for walks, so regular outdoor time, exercise, and fresh-air adventures are always part of my routine with pets. Whether it’s playtime, gentle senior care, reinforcing training, or just keeping your pet’s routine consistent, I provide loving, reliable care and treat every animal like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m currently a student and also work a part-time job, but I keep a very flexible schedule that allows me to be available mornings, evenings, and weekends. I make time every day to get outside for walks and enjoy including pets in that active time. I’m responsible, organized, and always punctual, so you can count on me to follow your pet’s routine, whether that includes feeding, playtime, walks, or cuddle breaks. I’m always happy to discuss scheduling details to make sure it works well for you and your pet. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the routine and guide you provide so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. I pay attention to the little details—feeding times, favorite toys, treats, and any special habits—because I know how much routine matters to pets. I treat your home with the same respect as your pet, keeping everything clean and tidy by washing bowls, cleaning up after playtime, and keeping litter or potty areas fresh. I also love staying in touch, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make things easy and stress-free for both you and your pet. 🐾
About: I’ve lived with and taken care of pets like cats, dogs and hamsters since I was a kid. I currently have two happy, healthy senior cats at home and I would love to help take care of your animals. I’m currently working part time with flexibility so I can fit my schedule around yours. I’m a morning person so it’s no problem for me to come by before work. After I moved into my own home 7 years ago, I immediately got cats and they have glowing reviews for me (except they would like more food please.) In your home, I would treat your pets with loving care and your space with respect.
“Sarah is great! She was communicative, always on time/respectful of my time, flexible depending on what my dog needed each visit, and my dog was always more relaxed on the days Sarah had come to walk her.”

“Francesca was lovely to deal with, and made time to come and meet Chester beforehand even though my booking was really short notice. He loved her straight away, and we would be very happy to have her look after him again.”
“Lucia has been great so far. She arrives on time and takes Chewie on a lovely walk. She provides a great update at the end with lots of pictures and sometimes videos which is really appreciated. I can tell Chewie is very happy. Would highly recommend Lucia!”
About: I’ve had pets throughout my childhood, so caring for animals has always felt natural to me. Alongside that, I have 3 years of pet sitting experience, helping with walks, feeding, check-ins, playtime, litter changes, cuddles and keeping pets calm while their humans are away. I know how scary it can feel to leave your pet with someone new. You want to know they won’t be ignored, rushed or treated like “just another booking”. That’s not how I work. I pay attention. I follow your pet’s routine, notice their mood, respect their personality and make sure they feel safe, loved and properly cared for. Some pets need play, some need patience, some need space, and some just need a kind human nearby. You’ll get clear updates and photos, and your pet will get real care, company and attention — not a quick visit with no heart behind it. I have a flexible routine and I only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet proper time and attention. I’m available for check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime and company, depending on your pet’s routine and what you need. At the moment that's my availability: •Mon to Mon •Morning - Afternoons- Evenings •Boardings full day, half day and weekends. I know it can feel scary to leave your pet with someone new, so I take trust seriously. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep doors, windows and gates secure, refresh food and water, clean litter or any mess, and make sure your pet is safe before I leave. I don’t rush visits or ignore pets — I pay attention to their mood, routine and comfort. You’ll also get clear updates and photos, so you know exactly how they’re doing.
About: I’ve been around animals since I was about 2 years old and I’ve had pets at home since I was 8 (cats and dogs). 🥰 My family even adopted a stray dog when living abroad (in India ) and trained her from scratch. It was a lengthy but very rewarding process. It taught me a lot about dog psychology and training. We often used to foster dogs before they went into their forever families or did dog sitting for dogs to stay at our house overnight. I really love all animals, I am very patient with pets and very attentive to their needs. I am a full-time MPhil student but I am very happy to take care of your pets (for doggy walks, drop in visits and house sitting) whenever I am free. I am usually available during the evenings and on week ends ☺️ I can completely understand how daunting it might be to leave your pet at home while you are away. I will always try my best to make your pet as comfortable and happy as possible 💕 I listen to their special needs, whether they require special exercises to remain occupied or frequent belly rubs! 😻 Please let me know about your pet’s routines and I will adapt accordingly :)

I have since been a cat sitter for multiple cats, boarding at homes for different families, and a dog walker and sitter for a friend’s dog, Tovey, from when she was a puppy onwards. I work from home Wednesday-Friday and am generally at home on the weekends. If you have a dog I would take it on walks to the park and river. I have a ground floor flat with a fenced garden.

“This was our first time using Gemma and we very pleased. We met Gemma the day before and she was great with Max and asked plenty of relevant questions. Max was very happy on our return. Received a lovely photo of him while Gemma was with him. Will definitely use Gemma again. Thank you Gemma!”
About: I am a "cuddles pets" addicted. I love dogs, cats and animals in general, and I truly need to have them around to fill them with love. I believe that is what they deserve for being the purest, best living being in this world. I have been passionate about them since I was born I think. Before coming to Cambridge I worked as a journalist but I've always taken care of my dog (Spicciolo), my cat (Carolina) and my rabbit (Pippo) when I lived in Italy. I am very happy to do the same with the awesome pets I meet and look after, and I will never disappoint any of them..thus neither their mum and dad.
“Libby was fantastic. Came and spent a wonderful hour with Charlie and didn't mind that he was fussing over his harness, swapped the walk for hangout time instead as requested. Definitely would book again”

“Alice was absolutely wonderful! She was very quick to respond to all messages, and even accepted our last minute boarding request. Our dog can be a little nervous and shy, but she warmed up to Alice very quickly. Alice also sent lots of photos and videos, which was very much appreciated.”
“Tina was an amazing sitter for our pup Stella - reliable, caring, and incredibly accommodating throughout. She made everything easy for us, we felt completely confident that our dog was in great hands. Would happily book her again and highly recommend Tina!”
“Couldn't recommend any higher! I knew my dog was well looked after there, she had a great time with regular walks, I had frequent communication and photos knowing she was doing well, their dog is a delight and got on with mine immediately so no issues whatsoever, will definitely be using her again!”
“I chose to take Chase to Stephen because his first question was if we can have an introductory meeting before we take him there. It was reassuring to me and the rest of my experience with him remained the same. Stephen and his family gave a loving home environment to our Chase. He was allowed to stay on the settee, got walks and got a friendly doggie company in their dog, Sam. Stephen kept me informed with messages and photos, he was transparent and told me that Chase was a little nervous initially, but then settled down so I didn’t have to worry, I knew he was in good, trustworthy hands. I will book with Stephen again when we’re going away.”
“Moose had a wonderful stay with Lauren. He adored the whole family and was well looked after. We were regularly updated on how he was doing. Thank you!”
“Liz took Fudge at short notice and was lovely! She sent regular updates with photos throughout the stay. She clearly loves dogs and enjoys looking after them. We’d be very happy for Fudge to stay with Liz anytime.”
“Sol was brilliant. I booked very last minute for a 7 night stay, and she was so welcoming and kind. My dog can be quite anxious in new places, but Sol handled it patiently and kept me updated throughout. He seemed so relaxed and happy when I picked him up, and it was clear he’d been well cared for. I thank you so so much! We were at ease leaving him with her :)”
About: I have had a wonderful Yorkshire Terrier for the past 10 years, I grew up with him and often looked after him while my parents were away. I also started walking the dogs of neighbours and family friends around the same time. I love dogs and enjoy spending time with them so dog walking and dog sitting was a natural choice for part time work whenever I was back at home from university. I have now finished my degree and have a lot more free time to spend with furry friends! I am currently available all day until the end of August, I start work again at the start of September and will usually finish around 3pm, so evenings are doable. I am very flexible regarding hours. My garden is fenced and my dog is not currently living with me (he is at my parents), so I have a very safe and secure environment. There are some great parks in my area for walking as well as a spacious interior that stays cool in the summer for your dog to relax in.
“Thank you for looking after Winnie! James took such great care of our puggle for the weekend and she came home super chilled and happy. Will definitely be booking with James again - thank you!”
“Kinga was fantastic and I would recommend to anyone. She kindly took our late booking and asked lots of questions, making sure our boy would be as comfortable as possible. Our dog got along great with Rai, he is definitely missing her a bit after going home! It was clear that our dog was in great hands and had a good time with Kinga.”
