We will definitely contact Dan again before our next holiday. Thank you, Dan!”

“Frances was Amazing!! Our dog Bruce had the best time. He looked immediately at home. No stress leaving him, Frances was very accommodating to his qwerks!!! Kept us updated with photos throughout his stay. Thank you 😀”
“Megan was absolutely wonderful with BoBo! Our miniature Dachshund can be quite a nervous soul in new places, but Megan’s patient approach meant he settled in no time. She followed every instruction perfectly and the frequent photo updates were such a lovely touch that kept us totally stress-free. We picked up a very happy pup and will definitely be booking Megan again!”
“Jenson had his longest stay with Serena to date and we felt comfortable leaving him in her care. She updated us daily and made sure to meet all of his needs, even though he can be a bit a difficult at times! Unfortunately Jenson needed a trip to the vets during his stay, due to a grass seed in his paw, but Serena and Colin took very good care of him and had no issues taking him to his registered practice. We would 100% recommend!”
“We were very pleased with the care Gitana provided for our dog, Coco, over the two days he stayed with her. She kept us updated regularly with messages, photos, and progress reports, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the start that Gitana is both an experienced dog sitter and a genuine dog lover. Coco was well cared for, happy, and comfortable in her company. We really appreciated the attention, affection, and professionalism she showed throughout. I would happily use Gitana's services again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and experienced dog sitter. Thank you, Gitana, for looking after Coco so well! 🐾😊”

About: I grew up with domestic shorthair cats and my first pets as an adult was a pair of rescue cats from the RSPCA. Following the birth of my son, I purchased a ragdoll cross for my daughter to teach her the responsibility of pet owning but also the love an animal can bring to someone's life.
“pleasant friendly good with my cat. The only downside was timings of feeding which is probably why my cat didn't eat the food as it was far too early, and the other time a little late, but cats are picky at the best of times especially when their owners go away. My little fluff ball of a cat came to no harm she got over me going away fast enough. It was a comfort to know that my cat was getting a visit whilst I was away.”
About: Having had cats throughout my childhood, in my 30's i did an animal care course and have worked with animals since. I worked for the RSPCA at a rescue centre taking care of the boys and girls that came in and got them fit and healthy for there new homes. I lived abroad for a few years where i built up my own clients where i walked and did pop in visits, vet visits and helped with medication, and also spent alot of time with the local cat organisations feeding and caring for the street cats.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m calm, patient, and reliable, and I always follow each pet’s routine closely. I prefer one-on-one walks so I can give dogs my full attention and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, playtime, and lots of affection, and I take responsibility and trust very seriously. I currently have a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to fit pet care easily into my daily routine. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits during weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow instructions carefully, respect your home, and keep pets on leads unless told otherwise. I make sure doors and gates are secure, routines are followed closely, and pets feel calm, safe, and well cared for at all times.
“Charlotte was brilliant and so wonderful with Rusty, it was the first time we have left him and had someone come in to see him and let him out. Even though he was a little nervous Charlotte communicated with me straight away and encouraged him gently out into the garden for a wee and a play. Charlotte communicated with me the whole time she was with Rusty and really reassured me that he was okay! Thank you for being so lovely and brilliant with Rusty”
“Paula was so very kind and caring towards our cat and helped very much even when he was unwell. She kept in touch and sent pictures and videos of him. We were so grateful to have her here with him for peace of mind. She even cleaned the house before leaving which was so thoughtful. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Both Tiggy & Ella absolutely love Lucia. They warmed to her instantly. I feel so happy and at peace to know my cats can remain at home in their daily routine and environment which has allowed me to have more freedom and not stress whilst I am away on weekend trips. ”
About: Growing up around animals I have gained experience in loving for horses, dogs, cats, reptiles and many more! I currently own two lovely girl rats (Luna and CC) and a puppy Finn! I am keen to transfer my animal loving nature towards your furry (or otherwise) children! I have owned many dogs through my time around animals big and small, I will attach some pictures of my previous pups down below! In my early years I owned a lovely pony called Rio, which involved early mornings and late nights of TLC. I own my own vehicle as well as a range of dog seat belt sizes, so if your dog enjoys time at the beach or would just enjoy some new scenery I can accommodate that too! No ask is too much! I work part time Wednesday to Saturday 9-5:30 so anything before or after those hours works great! Monday, Tuesday and Sunday I am fully flexible for you! Due to me and partner having small animals in my home for your pets safety and theirs I am only able to pet sit over night in your home, or if your animal is okay being on their own, and you just need me to pop by for potty breaks, walks or feeding/medication, I can do that too!
About: Hi my name is Stuart, I have owned and cared for many dogs throughout my life so I am extremely competent at caring for and walking even the largest of dogs. I'm currently a full time pet carer as I work from home and have my own two lovely dogs to look after also but I share responsibility for them so I have spare time. I have a large back garden for my dogs Bumble and Muffin and they walk off of the lead and come back when they are called. I don't crate my dogs but I don't have a problem crating your pup if required.
About: I’ve had cats since I was young and have always felt drawn to them. They are wonderful creatures and each and every one of them has such a unique personality. Rest assured when I’m caring for your cat they will be treated like the royalty each of them believe themselves to be. Cats can become very attached to a single person and dislike anyone else. It takes time to build that trust and I won’t push your cats boundaries. Im a very patient person and love to earn the connection with a cat. While you’re away your cat will be treated like family and I’ll make sure that they are happy and that you’re also happy with daily updates and photos. If your cat likes to play then we will get some toys and play, or maybe your cat just likes to have company and wants some pets. Whatever your cats requires I’m here to accommodate. Just let me know what your cat requires and it will be done. I look forward to hearing from you -Ben
About: I’ve grown up with and taken care of dogs my whole life. Everyone around me knows my strong love for dogs and therefore have relied on me to look after their pets when busy. I’ve recently lost by beloved dog and best friend Maggie (the beautiful Dalmatian in my profile pictures) who I’ve grown up with since I was 8 years old. I’ve been struggling to cope after her passing as I’ve always been used to having the loving company of a four legged friend. This is why I’ve wanted to reach out and look after other dogs as I not only want to help other people look after their dogs but because it will also benefit my bereavement. I have looked after dogs of many different sizes so adapting to this isn’t a problem for me:) I’m currently studying psychology at the university of Lincoln in my last and final year. I would love to use my free time to help people with dog walking and dog sitting as I have always loved dogs and this is one of my favourite things to do. I’m flexible as I have good availability across the week and weekends. I am confident and have experience with high-energy dogs, nervous dogs, reactive dogs etc. I understand how much trust is needed when looking after your furry friends so I can guarantee they will be treated as if they were my own.
About: I’m a fun, caring animal lover who just wants the best for all animals! I currently volunteer at the Blue Cross and I’ve previously run a kennels & cattery so am confident with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes and breeds. I’ve also worked for 2 zoos - one a mobile zoo with smaller animals such as reptiles and meerkats and the other a large zoo with everything from penguins to zebras so I’m used to a whole host of animal traits and characters, as well as meeting their needs. My work is very flexible and I work from home most of the time - if I do need to go out I often take the dog/s staying with me along, so they can enjoy a walk somewhere new at the same time🙂 My approach to looking after your pets? With love! Having had my own dogs since I was a child and more recently lost my elderly Mastiff cross Bordeaux, I know what it’s like as an owner to leave your pet with someone else. I therefore aim to make both you and your pet as comfortable as can be while you’re away and am very flexible to meets yours and their needs.
About: I‘ve always been a dog lover and have always been responsible for looking after friends and family’s pets since I was about 14. I am patient and love any four legged friend and their individual personalities!!!! I work from home and can walk the doggos morning, lunchtime and evenings. I can also take them out for potty breaks too as often as needed☺️ I have a big open space in the flat and lots of green spaces nearby, can easily provide a crate and bed if needed :)

About: Working from home on my product brand means either laying in the sun or cuddled up on the sofa. Being available all day means my dog Marco gets constant attention, it’s just a shame he’s more interested in other dogs affection. Your dog gets genuinely real constant company.

I have an enclosed garden with patio and grass for playing in. Marco is happy to share his toys. The house is a free for all for my dog.

I spent a lot of time with our family bulldog Drax, who has since passed, so I have real, hands-on experience with daily dog care and a deep understanding of their needs.

“Monty had clearly had a lovely day with Mark and the other dog that Mark was sitting for that day. Mark sent lots of photos and updates and let me know how he was getting on. Monty is highly food motivated and an accomplished thief which Mark managed well. Monty looked very relaxed and was quite happy to settle back in the other dog's bed when I arrived to take him home.”

Frances made sure she had attention throughout the day, and it was lovely to receive little updates and photos so we knew how she was getting on. Maya came home happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoyed her time there. We’re really pleased to have found someone so reliable, friendly, and caring. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend France’s and will definitely book with her again!”
About: I have been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was 14 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family regularly rely on my help when it comes to pet sitting, feeding, and taking dogs for long, active walks. In 2021, I gained experience working at a dog daycare for six months, where I learned how to manage groups of dogs and care for their diverse needs. I have experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs. I treat every pet individually, prioritizing their safety and well-being. Dogs are my passion, and spending time with them brings me genuine joy. Unfortunately, I don't currently have any pets. I would like to have a dog in the future but I can't afford it right now. I am currently studing, which allows me to be very flexible with my schedule. I attend classes only on Fridays and Saturdays, so I am fully available to care for your pets from Sunday to Thursday. I am dedicated to my personal growth and treat pet sitting with great responsibility, ensuring I have plenty of time for walks, play, and proper care throughout the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities. When caring for pets, I ensure a secure and calm environment tailored to their needs. I am a person who constantly learns and develops new skills to provide the best possible care. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a strict routine, keep a close eye on the animals at all times, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. If I am carrying for owners dogs I usually send pictures every single day to show that their pupils are safe and happy.
“Murphy had a great time playing with Codie. I was kept updated with a message and picture when he was with Marc for the afternoon and would be happy to have him look after Murphy again in future.”

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes from my 2 Staffordshire Bull Terriers ( sadly passed in 2023) to family pets of Yorkshire Terrier, Lhasa Apso and Jack Russell as well as Romanian Rescue Mix breeds. My current only Pet is my Cat Ledra who appeared at a time I wasnt expecting to adopt another animal however she had other ideas - I was on holiday in Crete and the Hotel had a family of stray Cats living there. On the first evening the Mother cat who was now tiring of her growing kittens decided to jump up onto our balcony and into our room where she quickly found a soft space to fall into the deepest most relaxed sleep, something it seemed she hadn't experienced much of in her life on the streets. She stayed close to us and decided I was to be her human. I managed to find local fosters who came and looked after her while I arranged with a rescue charity to have her flown to the UK where she was re united with us and has been pampered ever since. If you have a dog that requires a longer walk and who prefers to be solo rather than in a larger group then they would fit right in with my routine. Senior dogs who also prefer a gentle solo walk can also easily be catered for. I have plenty of time that I want to dedicate to my love of walking and animals. I used to walk my 2 Staffies miles each day and now they have sadly passed I still love getting out for long walks and would love to have your dog along to join me. I will walk your dog 1 to 1 on lead and ideally will be going for long walks around the Trimley Nature Reserve or the Felixstowe Coast We will have a discussion prior to any session where you can outlay what you require and what we expect from eachother. Rest assured I will treat your pet and home with the care and respect it deserves.
About: I have been a pet sitter for my family members for over ten years now. I have had my own dogs since birth. I have trained as a dog groomer and was a dog groomer for four years. I have volunteered at the blue cross and a dog training academy. I am about to start a University degree in Wildlife, Ecology and Conservation. I am passionate about animals and their care. I am starting a full time university course in September but I believe it is only a few days a week so I will have lots of free time to spend with the pets! I am very happy to follow care plans laid out by the owner and I can also follow my own judgement from my years of experience with working with dogs. I love to play with the dogs and also love to sit and cuddle too!
About: Hi! I'm Ren and I'm 29, based in Suffolk. Growing up with dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, horses, and rabbits, I've nurtured a deep understanding of their needs and behaviours, treating each furry or feathered friend with the utmost care and affection. I've successfully trained dogs in essential commands and behaviours, including the joy of attending specialised agility classes. Over 10 years of owning huskies has taught me invaluable lessons in patience and the importance of individualised attention. By choosing me as your pet sitter, you're selecting a devoted caregiver who will treat your pet as part of my own extended family. Their happiness, safety, and comfort are my heartfelt priorities 🥰 Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine, especially since I work from home. This allows me the flexibility to provide constant companionship and attention to your pet throughout the day. Whether it's regular feeding schedules, playtime breaks, or ensuring they get their daily exercise, I prioritise their well being as a natural part of my daily schedule. It also means I can be readily available for any unexpected needs or extra cuddle sessions your pet may require, ensuring they feel loved and cared for at all times. **Drop In’s’ - For a 60 minute visit, I include a 30 minute walk. If it’s a 30 minute visit, I typically aim for a quick 15 minute stroll or play in the garden, to ensure there’s still time for play, feeding, and getting everything all settled before I have to leave ☺️ When pets are in my home, I create a comfortable environment with designated spaces for rest and play. I ensure they get regular exercise, nutritious meals, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in their own homes, I maintain their routines, provide companionship, and respect their environment while keeping owners updated on their well being with messages even coming from themselves! Please note: I’m only able to accept bookings in smoke and vape-free homes with convenient parking available nearby.
“Jasmine is reliable, helpful and importantly attentive to my pooches needs. William is well looked after on his walks. Having a walker is a new thing for us and I could not recommend anyone more. Thanks Jasmine!”
About: My biggest so far challenge, was my “staff”breed. In fact, with lots of love, and an appropriate training approach, we bonded perfectly. Once or twice, i walked four “wiggle wags”at the same time, handful of treats worked just as well, we made a one “great pack” effort. A Caring for well-being of your pets will be depending on binding a joy of life, healthy snacks, and a cosy rest. I am self employed and managing most of my own schedule. I will find a time and i can fit in a pet care in, at my best. a Big garden with secured fencing, plus live next to one of the biggest parks in town, so if the pet dog is in need of good run, surely can provide that.
About: My first job was at the local farm in the petting farm section and I’ve had a passion for animals ever since. I grew up with a German Shepherd and have since owned a Border Terrier and German Spitz. I also have two cats, a rescue and a domestic cross ragdoll kitten. I’m looking to work more with animals as this is where my passion lies so would love to work more in pet sitting and dog/cat care to remove hours within my employed role. Before being left with your pet I would ask plenty of questions on the care required for your pet as well as highlighting any areas which may concern me if needed. I’m confident in calling either the owner or vet if needed and have cared for a variety of pets to know when I should be concerned and when they are simply tired and need a rest!

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was around 12, helping friends, family and neighbours with dog walks, feeding, visiting, bathing and playtime.

I am available between the hours of 1230-1430 and after 1800hrs during the week due to my working hours and available at weekends. However, during school holidays I am available in the afternoons from 1230 onwards to assist with both yours and your pet's needs, whether that is for walks, playtime, or lunch time check-ins.

I take dietary needs seriously and always follow instructions to keep pets on their usual routine.

I have had some work experience at a friend’s dog grooming business and I am comfortable bathing dogs of various sizes. I also have an enhanced DBS check. I will do everything I can to ensure that your pet gets the attention and affection they need to be happy and feel safe in my care. I am currently working part-time during the week and I am flexible between 0730-1400hrs any day in the week and at weekends for drop-ins, walks and playtime!

About: I’ve grown up with and taken care of dogs my whole life. Everyone around me knows my strong love for dogs and therefore have relied on me to look after their pets when busy. I’ve recently lost by beloved dog and best friend Maggie (the beautiful Dalmatian in my profile pictures) who I’ve grown up with since I was 8 years old. I’ve been struggling to cope after her passing as I’ve always been used to having the loving company of a four legged friend. This is why I’ve wanted to reach out and look after other dogs as I not only want to help other people look after their dogs but because it will also benefit my bereavement. I have looked after dogs of many different sizes so adapting to this isn’t a problem for me:) I’m currently studying psychology at the university of Lincoln in my last and final year. I would love to use my free time to help people with dog walking and dog sitting as I have always loved dogs and this is one of my favourite things to do. I’m flexible as I have good availability across the week and weekends. I am confident and have experience with high-energy dogs, nervous dogs, reactive dogs etc. I understand how much trust is needed when looking after your furry friends so I can guarantee they will be treated as if they were my own.

My work is very flexible and I work from home most of the time - if I do need to go out I often take the dog/s staying with me along, so they can enjoy a walk somewhere new at the same time🙂 My approach to looking after your pets?

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

“Katelyn looked after our anxious Shiba Inu at short notice. He seemed to settle with her very quickly and Katelyn kept us updated with photos and videos whilst we were away. This was the first time we had left Udon with anyone and he got on really well. We were very happy and would definitely recommend.”
