“We had such a tough time finding a good dog carer but when I found Brian and Erika I knew they were the right carers for us and our Quinn. We had a meet and greet which put our minds at ease and Quinn loved them right away running around the garden playing with their dogs. Whilst away we received daily updates or ‘pupdates’ as we started to call them which had lots of photos and details of their days adventure. After a couple of days our dog was apart of the pack and having a great time. they cared for other dogs whilst Quinn was there so she got to meet and play with lots of dogs which was great as she’s very sociable and has endless energy. We enjoyed our holiday knowing she was safe and came home to a clean and happy dog. Can’t recommend these two higher, if I could give more than five stares I would. We will definitely be booking again soon for all our holiday adventures. Thank you so much Brian and Erika! xxx”

I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”

“I am delighted Steven spent the day with Rita on 31/7/26. Rita adored Steven and happily went to him when he came to meet her a few days before the sit. When I returned home that evening Rita was relaxed and happy, I could not ask for more. Would happily ask Steven to look after Rita again should I need it. Diane Wood.”

About: I have just said farewell to my 15 year old Springer Spaniel and whilst I am not yet ready for a new companion I would love to look after your dog whilst you're on holiday. I recently retired and so available to take care of your dog all day, every day. I am used to walking 5+ miles a day and your pet will get at least 3 walks per day (if required/heat permits) and will be rarely left alone (if Sitting/boarding/day care). I have a fenced garden at the bottom of a quiet cul de sac, and live nearby a large orchard for safe (on lead) walks. Crate and dog bed available and covers on furniture if cuddles are required. I can accommodate 2 dogs from the same family at my home. I will decline bookings if we already have a dog with me.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies full of energy to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra love and patience. I understand the different needs that come with each stage of life, whether it’s helping with house training, keeping up with puppy zoomies, or providing gentle care and companionship for older pups. I always aim to create a calm, safe, and loving environment so every dog feels right at home. I’m home full-time, so your dog will have my full attention throughout the day! Whether they need regular toilet breaks, playtime, cuddles, or a calm presence nearby, I’m here to meet their needs. I’m flexible with routines and can easily adjust to your dog’s schedule to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fully fenced garden where pups can play and explore safely under supervision. We’re also lucky to have beautiful woodland walks nearby, perfect for sniff-filled strolls and a bit of outdoor adventure. Inside, my home is calm and dog-friendly—ideal for both energetic pups and those who prefer a cozy nap spot. You can feel confident knowing your dog will be cared for in a safe, loving environment.
“My Frenchie Lottie had a lovely ‘trial’ day yesterday with Tracey and her doggie family. Tracey ensured Lottie felt at home and took her time introducing her to her own and visiting dogs. She sent me pictures and videos of Lottie who was clearly very happy and settled with Tracey and her environment. Given how well this visit went I am very comfortable with Lottie staying with Tracey for 2 weeks whilst we are away later this month.”
“I would highly recommend Katie, very quick at replying to my booking. I was very impressed with the communication, Katie kept me updated throughout the day when Belle was with her. She was very well looked after and I will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Janice was an excellent communicator, super friendly and lovely with our dog. We would have no hesitation recommending her as a dog sitter to others and would Definitely book her again 😁”
“On holiday in Norfolk and Sharon looked after our Miniature Schnauzer Freddy today whilst we took our grandson to the Dinosaur Adventure park at Lenwade.

About: We don't have any pets but we usually take care of our friends dog when they're on holidays 😌 your dog will definitely be fed, walked and played with! So if your dog loves kids, it may be a perfect place for him to spend some time 👌 I am working mostly remotly, so it will be easy to schedule in walks with your pet and other care. Apart from school runs and a few ours some days a week in the evening to go to afterschool activities we are at home most of the time. If husband is not working and I am out with kids he would stay at home with a pet we are looking after. We will adapt our activities and make sure your pet has the best time in our care We have two daughters 3 yr old and 6 year old who loves little pets, but has never hurt any pet as both are a bit cautious. We all will love to play with your per throw toys and run around. We have medium sized back garden which is fully fenced and chance for pet to run away through the gaps as there's none. We would take your dog for a walk twice a day and of course feed him according to his needs and how he's used to at home.
“Very pleased to have found Paulina for occasional day care for my Labrador Marlee. After an initial meet up, Paulina looked after her for half a day to start with and really made sure Marlee felt settled and happy during her stay 😊 Have booked some full days now and feel very happy to leave Marlee with Paulina.”
About: I’m an 18-year-old female living on a farm, with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals. I have two dogs of my own, including one who is quite nervous, so I understand the importance of patience, attention, and tailoring walks to suit each dog’s individual needs. I’m also confident handling larger, energetic dogs—my spaniels certainly keep me on my toes! At home, I care for an indoor cat who loves plenty of affection, so I’m equally comfortable providing gentle, attentive care for cats. I’m looking to offer dog walking and pet sitting alongside my studies, combining my passion for animals with staying active, while making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently studying radiology My availability’s are: Monday 3-5pm Tuesday 9-11am Wednesday 9am-5pm Thursday 2-5pm Friday 1-3pm Saturday & Sunday all day If you do have any requests for other times feel free to get in contact and i may be able to be flexible however this is my current time frames I focus on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent for every pet. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible and take note of any specific needs, whether that’s a nervous dog who needs a bit more patience or a high-energy dog that needs proper handling on walks. In an owner’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions around feeding, exercise, and care. I make sure pets are secure at all times—checking leads, gates, and surroundings. At my home on the farm, there’s plenty of space, but pets are always supervised in a safe environment, I am very aware of the ability dogs and cats may have as I’ve seen my puppy jump a big gate . Overall, I just aim to keep pets comfortable and well looked after while and for their owners to feel comfortable and confident their pets will be safe

I offer boarding for up to 4 dogs from the same family, no other pets will be here for that duration. I follow any training regime set by you, along with any dietary or medicinal instructions.

Hope to see you soon I am at home almost all the time for 24/7 care of your furry friend.

About: 🐾 Fully Licensed • Fully Insured • DBS Checked • Full-Time Pet Care Professional 🐾 Hi, I’m Ryan, and welcome to Ry’s Pet Care! I’m a fully licensed home boarder, fully insured, and work full-time in pet care, allowing me to dedicate my time and attention to caring for dogs every single day. My goal is simple—to provide a safe, loving, home-from-home environment where your dog will be treated as part of the family. Having grown up with dogs and other pets, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Nothing makes me happier than building trusting relationships with dogs and giving owners complete peace of mind while they’re away. My beautiful Beagle, Ivy, was my world. Caring for her throughout her life, particularly during her later years when she required regular medication due to seizures and a brain tumour, taught me patience, compassion and the importance of tailoring care to each individual dog. She sadly passed away in October 2024, but caring for other people’s pets has become a wonderful way of honouring her memory. As I don’t currently have any pets of my own, every boarded dog, pet I sit for, or walked dog, receives my full attention without needing to compete for space or affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new smells, playing in the garden, relaxing on the sofa or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I’ll adapt my care to suit their individual personality and needs. I’m licensed to provide home boarding and have developed comprehensive welfare, safety and infection control procedures to ensure every dog enjoys a safe and comfortable stay. I also hold Pet First Aid certification, maintain detailed care records, and always prioritise each dog’s physical and emotional wellbeing. Communication is incredibly important to me. During your dog’s stay, or my sit, you’ll receive regular updates, together with plenty of photos and videos, so you can see exactly how they’re getting on and enjoy following their little holiday while you’re away. Whether your dog needs medication, has specific routines, dietary requirements or simply enjoys lots of cuddles and company, I’m always happy to accommodate their individual needs wherever possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I never take that responsibility for granted. My aim is for every dog to leave happy, relaxed and excited to return, while every owner feels confident they’ve found someone who genuinely cares. If you’d like to arrange a Meet & Greet or have any questions at all, I’d love to hear from you. I manage my own time and am a full time pet care professional so I have the flexibility to meet your pet's usual walk schedules, feeding time and administering of medication (if needed). When staying in your home, I will bring my own food and toiletries, I can also bring my own bedding if required, and even a single or double blow-up bed. I will only require water and electricity and will return the home to you as you left it for me. When boarding, your pets become part of our family, my aim is to make them feel as comfortable as they would in their own home. Your pet is my top priority, so please make me aware of their routines, preferences and training techniques/keywords and I will ensure these are kept to. I know how it feels to leave your pet(s) when you are away, constantly thinking about how they are and what they are getting up to! So, rest assured, I will take plenty of photos and keep you updated as much as you would like. I understand it is a big decision to leave your pet in a new environment, or to invite someone into your home and look after your pet and belongings! Therefore, I always recommend a meet-and-greet (at no extra charge), and am available to message or call with any questions to help build a rapport.
