About: Animals have always been a huge part of our family. I've owned and cared for cats for many years, had my own much-loved French Bulldog, regularly cared for a Labrador and have also fostered cats in our home. Both John and I work from home, so pets staying with us get plenty of company throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. We're very happy to follow your pet's usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, bedtime routines and - most importantly - plenty of cuddles and attention. We have a secure fenced garden and no pets of our own currently. We do have two young children who have grown up around animals, so for boarding/daycare we only accept pets who are comfortable and safe around young children. We know how nerve-racking it can be leaving your pet with somebody new, so we're also very happy to send regular photos and updates while they're with us. We want them to feel like they're staying with family. ❤️ I work full time from home as does my husband so we are always around to help with any animal needs. We have two young children that love animals. I have a fenced garden and lots of treats and toys. Our home is the pets home so they will feel as if they are having a holiday of their own.
“Our dog Minnie had a wonderful stay with Federica and didn't seem to wan to leave! Minnie can be a bit difficult but had no problem settling in and apparently was a joy to look after! :) Arranging the sitting and pre-meeting was easy and that, together with the good time had by Minnie, would lead us to highly recommend Federica for your dog - we will certainly be using her in the future !”
“Jack loved his stay with Donna. We were given daily updates with photos which helped us enjoy our time away without any guilt. We picked him up and he never gave any looks wondering why we had left him. He was bouncy and happy. Thank you so much Donna for your love and support ❤️”
“I would highly recommend Laurita as a dog carer! She has been incredibly attentive and caring towards my dog, providing him with the love and attention he needs while I am away. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure my dog is happy and well taken care of. I appreciate her reliability, communication, and genuine passion for animals. I feel confident and at ease knowing my dog is in such good hands with her. Thank you for all that you do!”
“Lisa and her family are amazing. Our girls had the best time. They loved their little holiday and it was so nice leaving them and knowing they were happy. Thank you Lisa!”
About: I grew up in Canada and am now based in Hertfordshire. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have had experience with many different breeds from chihuahuas to labs. I love spending time with animals and am available 7 days a week. 😊 I’m currently not working full time so am available 7 days a week for walks and pet sitting. My schedule is quite free at the moment so happy to take last minute bookings. I live in a 2 floor flat with no other pets. I do not have a garden but live a 5 minute walk away from a large park.
“We left our nervous rescue dog with Andrea for a week to attend our son's wedding abroad as we knew that he would find a kennel environment distressing. We had been able to meet and greet before we left and it was clear that Andrea had a lovely calm manner with Django, giving him the time to relax with her. We dropped him off the evening before we left, feeling confident that he would be in good hands. We were kept updated with photos and video clips of Django whilst we were away from which we could see that he was happy, relaxed and well cared for and when we picked him up on our return, his greetings and attentions were shared equally between us all, including Andrea!! It is clear that Andrea is kind and reliable and has a genuine love of dogs. We would not hesitate to leave Django with her again (we are already discussing our next trip!) and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, Andrea for taking such wonderful care of Django. Until next time!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by family dogs all my life, I grew up with a rescue golden Labrador and currently look after my gorgeous 6 year old cockapoo Peggy. I’ve trained and looked after Peggy since she was 6 weeks old. I run my own business and only work part time so fully flexible with any routine. My children are 14 and 12 and both love dogs. We have two cats Mollie & Mae. Your family pet will be invited into our house and treated as one of our family! Hi, I'm Lucy, I'm the very lucky owner of Peggy, my super soppy 6-year-old Cockapoo — she’s gentle, loving, keeps me busy and reminds me every day how much love dogs bring. We also have two 8 year old cats, Mollie & Mae (we rescued them from the RSPCA when they were kittens 8 years ago) they are loving sisters and keep themselves to themselves, they have their own cat flap that is permanently open for them and they come and go as they please, Peggy gets on really well with them. Caring for dogs & cats combines two of my favourite passions: spending time outdoors and sharing life with four-legged friends. I regularly look after family and friends dogs and love taking them on long, fun walks. Whether it's cuddles at home, playtime in the garden, or a good stretch of the legs, I'll make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and quirks. My goal is to provide a flexible, reliable service that gives you peace of mind and gives your dog the same level of love and attention I give Peggy. We live in a beautiful small village in the countryside and have a fully fenced 100ft back garden and 30ft front garden (also gated) with plenty of room to run around. There is a local park only 5 minute walk away along with many country walks for exploring and sniffing. To make sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for, please let me know: * Any special needs, behaviours, or routines * Their likes and dislikes * Feeding, walking, and sleeping preferences. That way, I can make sure your pet has the best possible experience with me.
“Lucy was absolutely wonderful with Amba. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Amba looked happy and settled, and it was lovely to see how well she got on with Lucy’s dog, Babs. It was clear she was well looked after and had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Amba with Lucy again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Daniel and his family went above and beyond to welcome Arthur to their home. He was treated like one of their own. Daniel kept in regular contact and sent through images regularly. Would highly recommend and will certainly be using again.”
“Seb and his partner did a brilliant job looking after our pup. We felt completely confident leaving her there overnight - they were obviously very caring and have a great home/garden for a dog. She obviously had a lot of fun playing with their dog too so we had one sleepy pup when we got home!”

“I was nervous about leaving my cat with a sitter I didn't know for the first time, but that didn't last for long! Molly came over to meet Kylo before I left, and once looking after him I received regular updates and pictures which I appreciated! I knew he was being looked after well and would definitely recommend”
“We’d never left our cats to be looked after by anyone before. Upon meeting Diana we were very confident that she would take good care of our boys while we had a week abroad. We were not disappointed. Diana provided little updates and photos while we were away. Upon our return we could tell Benny and Fredo had been well loved in our absence. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diana and would definitely book her again next time we go away if she’ll have us. 😊”

“Veronica is such a great catsitter. Our cat Risky is very shy and often hides from people but Veronica was able to win her over immediately and Risky became very affectionate towards her. Veronica sent us lots of photos of them having a nice time together and it really allowed us to enjoy our holiday. Thank you Veronica!”
About: I've had 5 different pet cats throughout my life and I've loved every single one of them.

“We just want to say a massive thank you to Abigail and her partner for looking after Frank yesterday. This was the first time that we’ve left him with anyone before, but from the moment we dropped him off we just knew he would be in good/safe hands. She was great and kept us regularly updated throughout the day and it was telling when we collected him that he’d had a great time. Thanks again and we’ll definitely go to Abigail again in the future”
About: I can’t remember a time when we didn’t have a dog and couldn’t imagine our house without one. My dogs are my children and that’s exactly how I would treat yours. I work from home full time so will be able make to give your furry friend the love and attention they deserve. Your doggie will need to be happy around others and play nicely as we have our own but there is nothing more they love than a new play mate. I work from home full time so they will get regular walks and plenty of garden time when needed. My three will make sure they get plenty of play time too! Regular walks, baths when muddy. Our back garden has fake grass so perfect to keep them clean during winter months. Happy to have them on furniture etc

About: I've been looking after dogs for family and friends for the past 8 years, from cockapoos to collies and spaniels. I'd love to have my own when the time is right, but for now I'm happy to care for other pooches! I work in a hybrid role, so 2 days a week I'll be available for all day sitting. These can be worked out as needed. Weekends are also fine. The only day I'm unavailable is Monday. The flat I live in has plenty of room with outdoor space to get some fresh air. Dogs I'm sitting for will get at least 2 walks a day and lots of attention.
About: As a toddler, I learnt to walk with the help of my family's gorgeous golden retriever. I now live on a narrowboat and move around East and North East London, spending my time walking around Lea Valley Park, Hackney Marshes and Victoria Park with various furry friends, some of whom also enjoy stays on my boat. While I don't have a private garden, I do always have the towpath and usually a big park right on my doorstep. I work freelance from home as a translator, so my day-to-day is very flexible. Whether there's a dog staying or not, my days always start with a walk or a run around my local green space. I love being outdoors so would welcome dogs who need longer and/or more frequent walks, but am also happy to provide cuddles and a calm environment at home. My boat has a comfy sofa and space for a crate if required. While I don't have my own private garden, I have easy access to the towpath and am usually a stone's throw from one of East/North-East London's parks.
“Very successful, and I am very pleased she did not miss us too much However I also need to make sure Yhozmin M can manage taking her for walks. So I will book again before we leave her for 9 days. Thank you”
“Carina was fantastic, was very prompt with replies and kept me updated with pictures to how Casper was doing. She was very flexible with the drop off and pickup times, and Casper seemed to really enjoy himself. I felt very safe leaving Casper with her, and would use her again 🥰”
“Luna is in very safe hands with Renato and his wife they are great! Luna always comes back happy and I get lots of updates throughout the day 😊. Rudolph is such a lovely dog him and Luna get on so well together! Thanks so much both”

“Laurita took care of my 4 month old Bichon Frise puppy. I literally had my puppy barely a week and needed someone to take care of him for the day because I needed to attend an emergency memorial on the Isle of Wight. He was scared when he got there and I was worried but she put my mind at ease and sent me some amazing video clip updates of him playing with her dog and absolutely loving being there and 100% happy. Her dog is so gorgeous as well— he was like an older sibling. She was also kind enough to give him a bath which I’m so grateful for. He looked beautiful when I picked him up. It is clear to see that Laurita is a dog lover and took care of Ceaser like he was her own. I was so lucky to find her and I will definitely be going to her again if I need her to take care of Ceaser. I also was stuck in traffic on the M25 and was going to arrive late to pick him up but she was so flexible. Thank you so much Laurita for taking care of Ceaser, you are a one of a kind, caring, lovely person.”

“Jess has been absolutely fantastic. She’s been walking our boy regularly for the past month and it’s been such a positive experience. He took to her straight away and always looks like he comes back from his walks happy, which says it all. We’ve been so impressed that we’ve also booked her to look after Monty while we’re away. She’s reliable, flexible, and incredibly accommodating - especially when we’ve needed to change our usual day or time at fairly short notice. Couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

About: About Me Hi, I’m Hayley, the person behind Adventure Bound Pet Services. Animals have been a huge part of my working life. I have around 13 years’ experience in animal welfare, including working as an Animal Welfare Officer for the RSPCA, where my role involved animal welfare and behaviour, rescue, rehabilitation, rehoming, adoption, fostering support, home visits and working closely with owners to help animals with a wide range of individual needs. I spent 6 years just working with cats so I have a lot of knowledge around their welfare. I also went on to work as a police officer, an experience which strengthened the qualities I bring to my work today – reliability, responsibility, good judgement and being someone people can trust. Adventure Bound has grown from wanting to return to the work I genuinely love: caring for animals and supporting the people who love them. I’m particularly passionate about providing individual, one-to-one care. Not every dog is suited to a busy group walk, and not every pet has straightforward needs. Some are nervous, reactive, older, recovering, have behavioural needs or simply thrive with individual attention. My aim is to get to know the animal in front of me and provide calm, reliable care that works for them. 🐾 Solo dog walks 🐾 Pet visits & companionship 🐾 Pet sitting & overnight care 🐾 Individual care tailored to your pet Adventure Bound Pet Services Individual care. Happy pets. Peace of mind. I have my own business so pet sitting and dog walking is my livelihood. I will always try to make a booking work around my personal circumstances. I will be respectful and listen to house rules and always make sure the pet is cared for to the standard the owner expects and sets out.
About: I've been among dogs all my life. Whether it's my own family dog or my parents dogs. I love all kinds. And long, long walks. My daughter's dog comes to stay when she comes to stay. And at other times. She clearly enjoys her time here. We have plenty of space for running around here and adventure. And a huge grassy area used by dogs that has no surrounding busy roads. And dogs regularly meet. I like to offer variety on my walk routes, but the grassy area is a great way to start a walk and make new friends or me old favourites. I work from home and in the events industry. My work dates are arranged in advance. So that I can easily fit my dog care around it. Almost limitless amounts of space here to work off some energy. And plenty of sofa space for naps or sleeps. No other animals live here and it is very quiet and peaceful. There's plenty of space in the car and I can provide a crate if needed.
About: Hi! I’ve always had cats and we currently have three of our own, so I’m experienced in caring for cats of all ages, breeds and personalities. I also regularly look after my friends’ small and medium-sized dogs and grew up around my Samoyeds and German Shepherds, giving me confidence with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Fish tank? I love those too!! I offer short visits, drop-in care, single-day pet sitting, and overnight house sitting. Whether your pet needs feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter tray cleaning, medication (if required), or simply some company and affection, I’ll make sure they stick to their usual routine and feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust. I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos, treat your home with the utmost respect, and care for your pets as though they were my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members and help give you peace of mind whenever you need a helping hand. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to fit pet care around my day and give each visit the time and attention it deserves. I’m building my pet sitting business, so I’m available for drop-in visits, one-day care, and overnight house sitting throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keeping to their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and medication routines to help minimise stress while you’re away. I’ll always treat your home with respect, keep everything clean and secure, and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe and happy. As a cat owner myself, I understand that earning a cat’s trust takes patience. Whether your cat wants to play, chat, or simply have someone quietly keep them company, I’m happy to let them set the pace.
About: Hi, I’m Amy! 🐾 I’m a passionate animal lover who has grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve had lots of experience dog sitting for family and friends, looking after everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a gentler routine. My priority is always to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to keeping their routine as consistent as possible—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just lots of cuddles. I know every dog (and owner!) is different, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s individual needs. Please feel free to enquire for times so we can match up and make sure your pup is well looked after. ☺️ Pet sitting fits really well into my schedule as I’m able to work flexibly and adjust my time around the needs of the dogs I care for. I have availability most weekends and can often work around weekday requests too, depending on your requirements. I’m happy to discuss times so we can find the best fit for both you and your pup. 🐾 I have a quiet, pet-friendly home with a large garden, and I’m conveniently located near green spaces and plenty of parks—perfect for lots of lovely walks and outdoor adventures.
About: While I’ve spent a lot of time caring for cats, my love for dogs is just as strong—and I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments through sitting for friends, family, and neighbours over the years. From playful puppies to older dogs who need a slower pace, I’ve cared for them all. I understand how important consistency, calm energy, and clear communication are when it comes to looking after dogs—especially when they’re adjusting to someone new. Whether it’s sticking to a regular feeding routine, administering oral medication, or making sure they get enough exercise and attention, I’m dedicated to giving every dog the personalised care they deserve and acknowledging when your pet requires nurturing, affection and play time. I’m confident with walking, feeding, basic grooming (like brushing and wiping muddy paws!), and giving your dog the companionship they need while you’re away. I also make sure to learn each dog’s individual personality and preferences—some love long walks, others prefer cuddles and quiet time—and I adjust my care accordingly. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, it’s always been a dream of mine—so caring for yours is truly meaningful to me. I’ll treat them like part of the family, ensuring they’re safe, comfortable, and most importantly, happy! I currently have a commitment which durates to just 3 hours a day, Monday to Friday (3 PM – 6 PM), which leaves me with plenty of time and energy to care for your furry family members! 🐾 I’m available and flexible every day—including weekends and bank holidays—and I’m more than happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need early morning check-ins, midday walks, evening cuddles, full-day care or even overnight stays, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s comfort and routine come first, and I’m here to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both the family and your pet. At home, I have one very spoiled Ragdoll cat who even has his own house attached to ours! While he’s a house cat, we’ve created a safe, secure outdoor space so he can explore freely. He’s treated like royalty—endless cuddles, enrichment, and affection—and I bring that same level of care and compassion to every pet I look after. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’ve always dreamed of having one. So caring for your baby will genuinely fill a little hole in my heart 💛 Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the garden, or just a comfy cuddle session, I’m ready to give your pet the same love and care I give my own. Although I understand that every pet is different, I acknowledge their individual needs and always provide the best possible care for them. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, senior, or needs medication or special attention—I adapt to their personality and routine to ensure they feel completely safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away.

About: I’ve spent many years caring for my grandparents’ dogs and have always enjoyed being around dogs of all sizes and personalities. Through regular walks, feeding, playtime and looking after them while family were away, I’ve learned how important it is to keep pets happy, comfortable and following their normal routine. I understand that every dog is different, so I’ll always take the time to get to know their personality, energy levels and any specific needs they have. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, plenty of play or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy and well looked after. I offer flexible pet care around my work schedule and keep my availability on Rover fully up to date. I regularly provide dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week, with occasional house sitting when my schedule allows. When I accept a booking, I’ll always ensure I have the time to give your pet the attention, exercise and companionship they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know exactly how they’re getting on. Your pet’s safety, comfort and routine are my top priorities. During walks, I’ll always keep dogs on a lead unless you’ve specifically requested otherwise and it’s safe to do so. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I’ll carefully follow your feeding schedule, medication instructions, walking routine and any house rules you’ve provided. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to get to know their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll treat both your home and your pet with the same care and respect that I would expect for my own.

“I would highly recommend Laurita as a dog carer! She has been incredibly attentive and caring towards my dog, providing him with the love and attention he needs while I am away. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure my dog is happy and well taken care of. I appreciate her reliability, communication, and genuine passion for animals. I feel confident and at ease knowing my dog is in such good hands with her. Thank you for all that you do!”
“Lisa and her family are amazing. Our girls had the best time. They loved their little holiday and it was so nice leaving them and knowing they were happy. Thank you Lisa!”
“We left our nervous rescue dog with Andrea for a week to attend our son's wedding abroad as we knew that he would find a kennel environment distressing. We had been able to meet and greet before we left and it was clear that Andrea had a lovely calm manner with Django, giving him the time to relax with her. We dropped him off the evening before we left, feeling confident that he would be in good hands. We were kept updated with photos and video clips of Django whilst we were away from which we could see that he was happy, relaxed and well cared for and when we picked him up on our return, his greetings and attentions were shared equally between us all, including Andrea!! It is clear that Andrea is kind and reliable and has a genuine love of dogs. We would not hesitate to leave Django with her again (we are already discussing our next trip!) and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you, Andrea for taking such wonderful care of Django. Until next time!”
“Lucy was absolutely wonderful with Amba. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Amba looked happy and settled, and it was lovely to see how well she got on with Lucy’s dog, Babs. It was clear she was well looked after and had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Amba with Lucy again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Daniel and his family went above and beyond to welcome Arthur to their home. He was treated like one of their own. Daniel kept in regular contact and sent through images regularly. Would highly recommend and will certainly be using again.”
“Seb and his partner did a brilliant job looking after our pup. We felt completely confident leaving her there overnight - they were obviously very caring and have a great home/garden for a dog. She obviously had a lot of fun playing with their dog too so we had one sleepy pup when we got home!”
About: I absolutely adore dogs and cats and have been around them and have taken care of them throughout most of my life. I have a professional background in pet care as I have worked for two different services while living in New York City (Barkly Pets and Oh To Be A Dog) where I traveled all around the city visiting and walking dogs. It was one of my favorite jobs I've ever had and it would be my pleasure to help out anyone in or around Hertford who need someone to look after this furry little friend! I'm currently working part time and will either have the day or evening fully open on weekdays to walk or visit your pet! During the weekend, I am more than happy to be fully available to have your pet stay here in my home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can more than likely adhere to your schedule and needs! I live in a house in Hertford that has a fairly small fenced in garden where your pet can use to relieve themselves or sunbathe. I also have a very cool basement where your pet can go if it's a bit too warm outside. There is also a huge and beautiful park right near my house where I can take your dog for nice long walk as well. I will make sure to have water and snacks on hand as well if they are ever hungry or thirsty as well.
About: I’ve looked after a wide range of dogs ever since I was 15. I love caring for them and making sure they’re safe and looked after. People have relied on me for my any years to look after them. I work from home two days a week when I am free to walk them/pop in throughout the days on Monday and Friday. I am also free majority of weekends. I can swap my days in the office if necessary and usually can work from home majority of the time if needed. I live in a flat in the centre of Hertford with gorgeous walks around! No garden unfortunately but plenty of places to play only a 2 minute walk away
“Will & Caitlin were absolutely brilliant, from start to finish! We booked Benny in for our wedding weekend after a booking with someone else was cancelled. From the moment we met Will, Caitlin & Riley, we could tell Benny was going to fit in well. We were sent photos and updates throughout the weekend and reassured that Benny was in safe hands. A huge thank you to you both for helping us during such a special weekend.”
“This was our first time using Rover for Cooper, and our experience with Oana was excellent. We had an evening meet and greet, which settled all of our concerns. Oana was very relaxed with ourselves and Cooper. Oana sent regular photo updates which kept our mind at rest throughout the weekend, and we could see that Oana and her family had made Cooper feel right at home.”
“Isabelle and Jamie, took the best care of Miley. They fully understood her and gave her lots of love and attention. Isabelle is very communicative and responds really quickly. She gave us regular updates and we will definitely be contacting her again when we need help with Miley. Thank you so much Isabelle and Jamie”
About: As a toddler, I learnt to walk with the help of my family's gorgeous golden retriever. I now live on a narrowboat and move around East and North East London, spending my time walking around Lea Valley Park, Hackney Marshes and Victoria Park with various furry friends, some of whom also enjoy stays on my boat. While I don't have a private garden, I do always have the towpath and usually a big park right on my doorstep. I work freelance from home as a translator, so my day-to-day is very flexible. Whether there's a dog staying or not, my days always start with a walk or a run around my local green space. I love being outdoors so would welcome dogs who need longer and/or more frequent walks, but am also happy to provide cuddles and a calm environment at home. My boat has a comfy sofa and space for a crate if required. While I don't have my own private garden, I have easy access to the towpath and am usually a stone's throw from one of East/North-East London's parks.
About: My friend and I absolutely love spending time with dogs. We have plenty of experience caring for them having previously had a dog (Poodle) for 11 years and really enjoy getting to know each dogs unique personality. We currently look after 2 dogs on a weekly basis and would like to branch into paid dog walking and sitting. I am currently working full time between 8:30 and 4:30 but have good availability after these hours and generally have a free schedule on weekends. I currently live in a flat with a balcony area and have plenty of space for your dog to run about or relax. We also own a car so if caring for your dog is easier in your home travelling is not a issue at all.
About: I’m a mum of two teens and I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life, growing up with dogs, cats and rabbits and now being a proud dog mum to my black Labrador, Cooper. 🖤 I regularly look after friends’ dogs when they’re away and absolutely love having them around. I’m confident and comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, and understand how important it is to know your pet is happy, safe and well cared for while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like one of our own, with plenty of love, attention and fuss! 🐾❤️ Mostly I work full time from home as director of dental urgent care for the NHS then the weekends are spent watching my two boys play football. I have a large fenced in back garden, space to crate your dog if your preference or need, can also use stair gates for added safety, plus I have friendly Labrador for company.
“We think our dog had a great time with Andrew. We only got a few photos and videos during the stay, but she certainly looked very happy in the ones we did see. Andrew clearly has a big heart for dogs and gave her a lot of love and attention.”
“Lidia was amazing. She updated me all the time with pictures and my dogs looked so happy and comfortable with her. They went on multiple long daily walks and couldn’t be happier. I will definitely be using Lidia again”
About: I have experience as a pet sitter in both Brazil and Portugal, and I am now happily based in England. Caring for animals has always been something very close to my heart. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs, and I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable and loved. I am caring, patient and responsible, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I would be delighted to give your pets the same love I’m currently available 24 hours a day, giving me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and schedules, whether your pet needs walks, visits, overnight care or lots of company. I’m very flexible and will always do my best to make sure your pet receives the care, attention and love they need. 🐾❤️ I believe pets deserve to feel safe, comfortable and loved while they are in my care. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine and individual needs. I’m happy to follow your instructions carefully, including feeding routines, walks, medication and anything else your pet may need. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my priority.
