“Suey and her partner gave a loving home and a fun company to Chase. They were happy to have an introductory meeting before the actual date and kept me updated very well with messages and lots of photos. I’m sure Chase enjoyed his time with them and we will come back again if they will be available. Thank you, guys! ☺️”
“My little schnauzer can be very nervy so I was quite nervous about leaving her with a sitter but she did amazingly. Fabiane really helped Aspen to settle and feel safe and getting update and photos - seeing her being looked after as part of the family - was absolutely amazing. We will definitely be booking again. Jess and Aspen x”
“May was absolutely wonderful! Our shiba stayed with her for 10 days. She took great care of our pup. May sent lots of updates including a daily schedule, photos, and videos. May is also a dog trainer and helped to reduce how much our dog pulls on the leash. I’ll definitely book her again when I need a dogsitter.”
“Absolutely everything you would wish for from someone looking after your dog. Thank you, Julia! Kind and reliable, understanding about Gus’s quirks, plus easy to arrange the plan with. Hopefully see again you soon :)”
“They provided amazing care for our senior staffy. It was the first time we had left him with anyone other than family and Rachel was great and gave regular updates which eased our nervousness. Rio loved his time with them and we would highly recommend them!”
“Danuta accepted my two dogs to board at extremely short notice. They were welcomed and made to feel at home. Ivy their own dog was very accommodating and the photos and video showed my two completely relaxed and asleep on their sofas. I would thoroughly recommend this family with your pets and wouldn't hesitate to use their services again. Thank you!”
“Erin and Andrea did an excellent job of looking after our little pug Peanut whilst we were on holiday. Andrea sent regular updates with photos and videos throughout the week and Peanut had a great time on walks, playing games and hanging out with Püs their pug. Erin and Andrea were also helpful and flexible about pick up and drop off times despite us having to change these last minute due to delays with our flights and trains. Thank you both for everything - we would whole heartedly recommend them :)”
“Stella and her partner looked after and cared for Luna very well. We had regular photos and updates which put our minds at rest.she seemed very happy when we picked her up and seemed like she was going to be missed.Would happy to leave Luna again.”
“Gareth was absolutely amazing! He was caring, attentive, and sent many photos throughout my dog’s stay to keep my family updated. My dog had a wonderful time and came home happy and tired. I highly recommend Gareth for future bookings!”
“Max was an absolutely amazing host for our nervous dog. Him and his partner took great care of Thor and made us feel so comfortable and happy leaving him there overnight. They were really accommodating and gave lots of updates of him having a great time.”
About: I’ve taken care of friends & families dogs - I love animals and live alone in a two bedroom flat, so there is plenty of space for a pup. I also have an outdoor green area for walks. I work full time during the week but I am available from 5pm in the evenings to take your animals on walks. I am at home on weekends, so can look after all day / night! I live in a spacious two bedroom apartment with a locked balcony door. Safety is my number one priority always. I am attentive and caring, and generally a very observant person. Happy to provide references if you need and make any adjustments. By profession, I am a scientist :)
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.
“Jacob looked after my Labrador for a few days and he was absolutely brilliant. I’ve never felt so at ease being away from my dog before. Jacob sent me regular updates and photos several times a day, which was so reassuring. He took him out for several walks every day, but I was particularly impressed by how attentive he was - he made sure my dog got plenty of rest when he seemed a bit more tired than usual. It’s clear that Ettore was genuinely relaxed and happy. Jacob obviously has a real passion for dogs and truly enjoys what he does. He formed a lovely bond with my Lab, and I will definitely be reaching out to him again. Highly recommended!”
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: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I currently own a young Pomeranian who keeps me on my toes! I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles or simply a calm and reassuring presence, I provide loving, reliable care and will treat them as part of the family while they’re with me. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds and personalities, including puppies and adult dogs. I provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, feeding, plenty of affection, and updates for owners. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always prioritise their safety, comfort and happiness. I work from home full-time, which means I have plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine as I care for my own Pomeranian, Coco. Whether your dog needs company, feeding, toilet breaks, playtime or a consistent routine, I can ensure they receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with a lovely fenced garden where dogs can safely play, explore and enjoy time outdoors. Dogs staying with us enjoy at minimum of two walks per day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, alongside playtime, enrichment and lots of affection. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise and routines, ensuring every dog feels safe, comfortable and at home. My friendly Pomeranian, Coco, is well-socialised and enjoys the company of other dogs (he loved making new friends!).
“Lauren and her family care for Dill as if he is one of their own. I love how happy he is on his video adventures with Lauren and the other doggies. I feel relaxed and confident knowing Dill is being looked after with as much love and attention as I would!”
“Our German Shepherd stayed with Ralf overnight and for a full day and she had a great time! There were plenty of friendly dogs also staying that she seems to have had a lovely time with, and there was a spacious back yard for her to run around in. When we came to pick her up, she didn't want to leave! Ralf was also very accommodating with pick up and drop off times, and he sent us a video update of her playing once she had settled in. She came home happy and relaxed. We will certainly be reaching out again to Ralf in the future next time we need to go out of town!”
“Bibiana, little Gabi, and her family were amazing taking care of our dog Billy, he seemed to really enjoy spending time with them. She took good care of him when we traveled, sending us multiple pictures and videos of Billy. We definitely recommend her service and would gladly book her services again in the future!”

“Lucia did a wonderful job looking after our cats when one of them needed to take medication for the first time. It was great to know that someone so competent and kind was looking after them. I would strongly recommend her.”
“Sarah is a very observant and reliable cat sitter. She looked after my fluffy boy when he was on medication (post-surgery) and also when he wasn't feeling well. She is a hands on cat sitter, always ready to take him to the vet if needed. Thank you so much Sarah!”
“Kayleigh looked after our cat Nina really well. We received daily updates with photographs which gave us great peace of mind. Kayleigh was also able to help water our plants and put our bins out. We really valued her help this week and would not hesitate to ask Kayleigh for help again - thanks so much!”
“Tina is a warm, friendly, conscientious person who clearly loves animals. Our cat, Flash, took to her immediately, and the two of them got on well throughout Tina's visits. Not just that, but Tina wrote entertaining reports about Flash on the Rover app, and sent adorable pictures. I was able to thoroughly enjoy my vacation, knowing that Flash was in such good hands. I can't recommend Tina highly enough.”
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.
“It was great having Maisie walk the dogs this week. She arrived on time and was ready for a walk with a lively cocker spaniel! We had done a meet and greet the week before so they were both very happy to go with her. I had complete confidence that she could manage an older dog and a younger livelier one and I'll definitely be using Maisie again”
“Nena did a great job taking care of my two cats while we were away. She let them in and out so they weren't stuck inside the whole time. Sent regular updates and photos for my peace of mind. ”
About: Hello 👋 My name is Freya and I'm an experienced, fully insured cat sitter ✨. I've been cat sitting for friends and family since I was a teenager, and over the last couple of years I've taken this more seriously, caring professionally for a wide range of cats with different personalities and needs across Cambridge 🐱. I've always grown up around pets, as my family adopted several rescue dogs over the years. As I've got older, I've realised I'm more of a cat person, especially since moving in with my partner and his beautiful cat 🥰. As cat parents, we all know how particular our feline friends can be, thriving on routine and familiar surroundings. I'm dedicated to providing calm, attentive care in your home so your cat feels safe and comfortable while you're away 🤗. My services include: - Feeding, fresh water, and litter box maintenance - Playtime, grooming, and affection tailored to your cat's personality - Administering medication if needed - Plant watering, mail collection, and basic home check-ins - Regular photo/video updates so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and looked after I'm patient with shy or anxious cats, comfortable with multi-cat households, and happy to follow detailed care instructions.
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.
“Alicia was great, highly recommend her to others! She looked after my kitty for a house stay. My house was in immaculate shape upon return. Even though I didn’t ask, fully washed all sheets and bed ware upon her departure. Was flexible for key drop off and overall very communicative and easy to deal with. Sent pictures of my kitty and very thoughtfully asked how she could entertain her better when she seemed sad, have never had that before! Thanks so much Alicia!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 3 years, starting with my own pup and extending to friends, and family pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to older companions who just want gentle walks and cuddles. I believe every dog deserves patience, kindness, and lots of love, and I always do my best to make them feel safe and happy. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or quiet company, I enjoy giving pets the care and attention they need. My schedule is flexible, and I can usually adjust to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I’ll do my best to be available when your pup needs me. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I follow instructions closely, from feeding routines to leash rules, and I never take risks with a dog’s well-being. Walks are always on secure leashes, doors and gates are double-checked, and I keep a close eye on pets at all times. I believe that being strict about safety is the best way to build trust—so you can feel confident that your pup is in caring, reliable hands.

“Calvin and his partner have looked after Hutch a few times since we have moved to Cambridge earlier this year. Hutch has gone in happy and always come back home happy. They are dog lovers who know how to bond and make Hutch feel at home! We will continue to use Calvin whenever they are available as we know Hutch will be cared for as if he is theirs!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, our home was never without one, from a bouncy Poodle to a loyal German Shepherd, a gentle Bernese Mountain Dog, and a spirited Airedale Terrier. Each one left a paw print on my heart. Over my years in Cambridge, I've built up experience in dog walking and sitting, and have a particular soft spot for both puppies and senior dogs, I love them at every stage of life. I woke up around 8am and I have a big garden where the cat/dog can be. I mostly work from home so the cat/dog can be by my side most of the day. If it is a dog, I am happy to take him/her for walks 3 times per day, as it is also good for my mental health. If they are well behaved they can even go to the office with me, if needed, as my office is pet friendly. I like to give lots of love to animals and I am very playful. As I have an ensuite room they can sleep with me and can have always water in a ball for them and fresh food in the kitchen. The house is very big so they have space for playing and relax. We also have a big and sunny fenced garden
About: I just finished my PhD and suddenly have much more time on my hands while working from home and miss having dogs around. For about four years, I’ve regularly looked after friends’ dogs, doing walks, play, and overnights, one of which had a lot if separation anxiety that me and her parents managed to lesson over the years together. However, I recently moved back to Cambridge, after living up in Edinburgh for 2-3 years and no longer see my friends’ dogs as often. Hence, I’d love to welcome your dog instead and give them the same warm, reliable care as I was able to do up in Scotland. I currently work part-time and mostly from home, so I’m around during the day for walks, feeding, and company. This means your dog will always have company. I take safety and trust really seriously, and would love you to feel completely comfortable leaving your dog with me. I have a have fenced backyard where dogs can explore and play safely, and would always supervise outdoor time. Inside, your dog will stay in a calm, homey environment with plenty of attention. Before any booking, I would obviously love to chat about your dog’s character, routine, and any important do’s and don’ts (for example: recall, food rules, reactivity, separation anxiety, or quirks). I’m happy to follow your training approach, keep to feeding and walk schedules, and accommodate any specific needs or preferences.
“Rocio did a wonderful job looking after our 4 year old golden retriever. She was really communicative during the day and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Couldn’t have asked for more!”
“Highly recommend May, she went above and beyond when looking after Barney for the day. We had a meet and greet beforehand and found May to be very knowledgeable and considerate of Barneys needs. She sent lots of updates with videos and photos throughout the day which was great and made me feel very reassured that he was being well looked after. She even went so far as to teach Barney a new handy trick! Would definitely be happy to book in with May again in the future.”
“Jacob is a great sitter and Reggie loves his visits. He gets lots of love and attention and great walks. Reggie is already excited for his week long stay with Jacob. Thank you for always being so flexible and accommodating”

“Giselle was absolutely fantastic with Stella. Stella has quite a nervous disposition, but she took to Giselle straight away, she engaged great with her and updated us on how she was doing. Stella settled in great, far faster than I expected her too which was so reassuring to see. I would definitely recommend and will be booking with Giselle again in the future!”
“Thank you for taking very good care of Callie and Maxine ❤️ and thank you for being so flexible when it comes to pick up and deop off time. I am sure they had so much fun with the rest of the dogs as they were wiped out as soon as we got in the car. Thank you again and we’ll definitely book with you again.”
“Sophia is brilliant with Nero. He can be quite anxious but she took the time to make him feel settled, going on nice long walks and getting lots of love and attention. He has been to her twice now, and gets very excited going there 😀 I would highly recommend Sophia and will definitely be using her again (in fact I have just booked!)”
About: I have loved dogs and cats (and all the other animals!) since I was a kid, as I grew up on a small farm. I always enjoyed their company, and they seem to enjoy mine ☺️ I had a black lab called Brian in my adult years and a cat called Simba. My heart broke to pieces twice when I lost them. I have always been actively seeking dog and cat sitting opportunities, especially before and after Brian. My longest dog sitting was nearly 6 months long, and I still go to visit him whenever I can as we have formed a lovely bond. I currently work for a company producing smart devices as well as other products for dogs (soon cats, too!), so I am very familiar with the dog & cat world and their welfare is very important to me (as well as all the other animals!). I work full time in a 9-5 office role, but I am based mostly from home and generally have a good degree of flexibility throughout the week, with the occasional exception when I need to be in the office or attend meetings elsewhere. This means I can usually fit pet care easily around my schedule. For dogs, I can provide walks before work, during my lunch break, and again after work, as well as plenty of companionship throughout the day. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so daily walks and quality time with pets fit naturally into my routine. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed while their owners are away. I usually care for pets in their own home, as I find they are happiest and most comfortable in familiar surroundings. For dogs in particular, this almost always means that I stay in the owner’s home so they can keep their usual routine and enjoy the comforts they are used to. I am happy to discuss having a dog stay in my home if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always look after both pets and homes with care, respect, and attention to detail.

“I am so lucky to have found Manu for my Chase! I think he and Valeria provide an exceptional service without a doubt. They are happy to have my dog from early morning to late evening so I can work my long shift with a peace of mind. I know that Chase is in very good hands with them because he is wagging his tail and getting excited as soon as we are approaching their doorstep. On top of that Manu and Valeria are so nice people that I feel like I’m taking Chase to old friends. Thank you for being so lovely and caring, you are a rare find.”

“Rocio is the best dog walker we could ask for! She is incredibly flexible with our busy work schedule and will even update us on a daily basis if walking times open up. She genuinely cares for our dog Benny and treats him with dignity and respect. She has my highest recommendation!”
About: Hi I'm Alma! I have my own dog Snowy back home in Australia, have petsat for friends' dogs (including large breeds like Great Dane mixes) for years and used to volunteer walking dogs at a rescue. I'm also a huge fan of cats, having lived with several over the years and currently am the regular sitter for my friend's two cats Clio and Famke. I used to be a mouse breeder, and am happy to look after any other animals in the house as well, as well as very comfortable with administering medication. I'm currently job searching, so I have plenty of time to spend with your babies! I can do longer daily drop in visits, or stay overnight at your house to keep them company. I'm happy to stay overnight to keep your pets company and water any plants. I'm very neat and tidy and will generally be spending my time cuddling with your pet and/or knitting.

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 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.
“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”
“Gemma was able to help us out at short notice. She was responsive and friendly and our dog took to her straight away. He can be nervous but Gemma was clearly capable and they had a great walk. I wouldn't hesitate to book again”
“Kayleigh was prompt in her interactions. She came on time to take Leo and Ace for a walk. She made sure the dogs were friendly with her before the long walk started.”
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 :)
“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.”
About: I just finished my PhD and suddenly have much more time on my hands while working from home and miss having dogs around. For about four years, I’ve regularly looked after friends’ dogs, doing walks, play, and overnights, one of which had a lot if separation anxiety that me and her parents managed to lesson over the years together. However, I recently moved back to Cambridge, after living up in Edinburgh for 2-3 years and no longer see my friends’ dogs as often. Hence, I’d love to welcome your dog instead and give them the same warm, reliable care as I was able to do up in Scotland. I currently work part-time and mostly from home, so I’m around during the day for walks, feeding, and company. This means your dog will always have company. I take safety and trust really seriously, and would love you to feel completely comfortable leaving your dog with me. I have a have fenced backyard where dogs can explore and play safely, and would always supervise outdoor time. Inside, your dog will stay in a calm, homey environment with plenty of attention. Before any booking, I would obviously love to chat about your dog’s character, routine, and any important do’s and don’ts (for example: recall, food rules, reactivity, separation anxiety, or quirks). I’m happy to follow your training approach, keep to feeding and walk schedules, and accommodate any specific needs or preferences.
About: I’ve looked after my friends’ pets when they’ve been away for extended periods of time. I am happy to do a range of jobs to ensure they feel safe and happy. Im currently finished with school as I have moved from New Zealand to the UK. I won’t go to University till September so I will be free most days to take care of your pets. I am able to be a calm presence in the house and will be able to take care of them if they start feeling scared or uncomfortable.
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, horses and all sorts of pets most of my teenage and adult life. I’m comfortable administering medication and providing careful senior care, as well as hitting the park with your dog for many many ball throws. My partner has owned dogs for 8 years and is dog crazy, they seem to love him too! We both work hybrid, and are happy to care for your pet during day, evening, overnight and weekends. We can visit locally by foot and with car. We have a quiet flat overlooking midsummer common, so have a wonderful huge green space right outside our window for endless ball throwing, sniffing, and bounding around.
“absolutely fantastic service. very communicative, always took multiple pictures and left notes regarding the walk. very friendly and my very shy cat would even come out to say hi when she was around. will definitely be looking to book with sarah again.”

“May was absolutely wonderful! Our shiba stayed with her for 10 days. She took great care of our pup. May sent lots of updates including a daily schedule, photos, and videos. May is also a dog trainer and helped to reduce how much our dog pulls on the leash. I’ll definitely book her again when I need a dogsitter.”
“They provided amazing care for our senior staffy. It was the first time we had left him with anyone other than family and Rachel was great and gave regular updates which eased our nervousness. Rio loved his time with them and we would highly recommend them!”
“Danuta accepted my two dogs to board at extremely short notice. They were welcomed and made to feel at home. Ivy their own dog was very accommodating and the photos and video showed my two completely relaxed and asleep on their sofas. I would thoroughly recommend this family with your pets and wouldn't hesitate to use their services again. Thank you!”

“Jacob looked after my Labrador for a few days and he was absolutely brilliant. I’ve never felt so at ease being away from my dog before. Jacob sent me regular updates and photos several times a day, which was so reassuring. He took him out for several walks every day, but I was particularly impressed by how attentive he was - he made sure my dog got plenty of rest when he seemed a bit more tired than usual. It’s clear that Ettore was genuinely relaxed and happy. Jacob obviously has a real passion for dogs and truly enjoys what he does. He formed a lovely bond with my Lab, and I will definitely be reaching out to him again. Highly recommended!”
“Lauren and her family care for Dill as if he is one of their own. I love how happy he is on his video adventures with Lauren and the other doggies. I feel relaxed and confident knowing Dill is being looked after with as much love and attention as I would!”
“Bibiana, little Gabi, and her family were amazing taking care of our dog Billy, he seemed to really enjoy spending time with them. She took good care of him when we traveled, sending us multiple pictures and videos of Billy. We definitely recommend her service and would gladly book her services again in the future!”
“This was Digbys first stay with Stephen and it all went really well. Initially Digby was a bit anxious and unsettled but soon settled in and Stephen kept me well informed and updated. Digby really enjoyed the company of Stephen’s Cockerpoo Sam. I felt reassured throughout that Digby was in safe hands and I’m sure I’ll be booking him again soon.”
“Couldn’t be happier with Ecehan’s service. She’s a real dog lover and took great care of Max for the weekend. Sending regular updates and photos kept us reassured too. Would highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Lisa was wonderful to work with! She watched both my dogs over 4 days and was extremely communicative. I also received some happy photos and videos which really allowed me to enjoy my time away. Highly recommend!”
“Liz did a fantastic job looking after our border collie Joy. She provided us with plenty of updates and photos and kept Joy very well entertained. I would love to have Liz look after Joy again when we need a pet sitter. Thanks Liz :)”
