“Alix is an excellent dog carer. We left our little one at hers for 5 days. She updated us regularly everyday and looked after him very well. Strongly recommend.”
“Janet had a lovely home to take care of Lobo in. She was relaxed and friendly and Lobo who can be nervous when we leave her, was happy to be there. Janet took her plenty walks and took good care of her. Would definitely use Janet again.”
“We decided on a last minute trip out of the country. Anna worked with us every step of the way and made sure we were always in the know with our girl. She would send daily updates and photos. It was a peace of mind while we were away to know our dog was being loved and cared for by such a lovely family. Will use Anna again for boarding in the future.”
“Inga and her family took great care of our dog Daphne. We were provided with regular photos and updates which showed Daphne was settled and happy and had lots of playtime and walks. Thank you so much Inga!”
“Katy and her partner were absolutely fantastic with our whippet Leo! I am very fussy with who looks after Leo but i felt 100% confident leaving him with Katy. Great communication throughout and was sent lovely photos of Leo having fun playing and snoozing on the sofa. Leo had a great time and is looking forward to he's next stay. It was nice to enjoy our time away knowing that Leo was in good hands, thank you so much x”

About: I’ve lived with and looked after many pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals. I regularly look after my friends dogs, cats and other small pets. I have a passion for dogs and although I don’t currently have my own I regularly walk dogs daily with friends and/or family. I’ve helped train puppies and also spent time caring for elder dogs. I currently work for a company that produces smart devices for pets so I am very familiar with animals and the wants and needs required to look after them and their welfare. I work fully remote for a pet device company and regularly spend my spare time with my friends and families pets. I’m active and love walking, I have completed the Camino de Santiago and enjoyed every step. Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own I have pet beds, bowls and other toys etc as I regularly look after dogs at my house. I make sure my house is pet friendly and love to get to know every animal I pet sit. A part of forming a bond and making sure they are cared for is understanding the behaviours and habits they already have and keeping as routine as you can to keep them safe and happy. I’ve regularly pet sat at friends homes and always treat their animals and homes with love and care.
“Our dog, Brodie, stayed for a week with Pedro and his parents. Pedro sent us a few videos in which Brodie looked very happy out walking. When we returned he was a bit fatter than before (not a problem as he was too skinny) and was therefore evidently well fed. He came home happy and unaffected by his first stay away from home. Pedro clearly has a big affinity with dogs.”
“Julie provided such amazing care for our 6 month old Doberman pup Jax. From the first enquiry she was very responsive, organised and really friendly… she didn’t let his size or energy phase her and he had such a lovely weekend with Julie and her family. It was his first time away and Julie kept us updated each day with texts and photos which was great. When we collected Jax I could see how happy he was and how much not only Julie but her whole family had cared for him. Thank you so much.”
“This was the 1st time I'd had to leave my dog with anyone other than family so I was nervous how he would be - I needn't have been as he had a great time!!! Sharon sent regular photos and updates, the 1st one being shortly after I'd dropped him off ( it was very reassuring to see he wasn't fretting that we'd left him). I think Vinnie was reluctant to leave the spacious gardens and paddock behind when we picked him up! I would 100% recommend Sharon 😊”
About: I first became a "dog Mum" 15 years ago to our Westie, Elland, who sadly we lost recently. I sadly was that annoying "Dog Mum" who had pictures of her on my desk and booked holiday for her birthday each year. I took voluntary redundancy nearly 6 years ago so have been fortunate to spend quality time at home with her and take her out and about on our own or with her other doggy friends. Unfortunately she lost her hearing about 3 years ago so learnt quickly how to communicate with her with some basic sign language. She also developed dry eye disease so I had to administer drops 5 times each day. Two of these were determined by time so I had to ensure I was available to give her these on time. The last 5 months of her life, her arthritis worsened so I bought a buggy to help her whilst out for daily walks/sniffs. I have also looked after family dogs whilst they have been on holiday and have accomodated raw feeding for one of family dogs. I live with my husband in a bungalow. He still works but is here in the evenings and at weekends. I work during examination periods at a local college but can accomodate pet sitting around this as dates are known well in advance. My contract with the college is ona casual basis so dog sitting will be my priority. We have used a local dog sitter who stayed in our home when we went on holiday. I therefore understand the importance of providing important information to the pet sitter when leaving the pet. When I first stopped working I volunteered for a local hospice helping support a family who used their services, by walking their dog on a weekly basis to give them some respite and also encourage the dog to socilise. I did this for 12 months. I also volunteered at Wood Green Animal Charity during Covid restrictions. Although I was there to help in the fundraising office, we often had dogs who weren't settling in kennels, come and sit with us in the office for the day. Some were quite withdrawn so I learnt how to slowly gain their trust. I am retired so home all day. My husband works full time but is home in the evenings and at weekends. I do some casual exam invigilating but I know dates for this in advance so will not take on any work if pet sitting is booked. I am happy to be led by the owners on when and what activity their dog (s) are used to so am pretty flexible. I have acess to my own car so can take the dog to any appointments if required. I have a fully fenced in garden (6ft) I live in a village with lots of access to quiet walks in the countryside if required, as well as walks within the village itself. I am happy to book out local secure dog fields if agreed with the owner but this will involve driving to nearby fields. As previously mentioned we live in a bungalow so no stairs. We are based in a quiet cul-de-sac so if your dog is reactive to traffic, should not be a problm here. I have space for a medium size crate if required.
“Sewwandi did such a great job with Bevo. They sent several pictures & videos and she communicated a lot with us providing updates throughout the day. Bevo didn’t have time to miss us between the walks and play time with their sweet little Boston, Poppy. They sent a few updates that let us know they were treating Bevo like she was their own. A week or so after her stay, we bumped into Sewwandi on a walk and Bevo lost her mind she was so excited to see her! I would recommend Sewwandi to anyone looking for a Rover!”
“My dog stayed with Laura for 2 weeks and was very well cared for. He settled in amazingly and looked well at home with the updates we received from Laura while we were away. Thoroughly recommmend”

“David and Philippa looked after our beautiful cat, Geno, brilliantly. They were responsive, provided lots of updates and left our house clean and tidy. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and would happily use them again.”
“Belinda came to visit the pets beforehand and while I was away she was very reliable, visited on time and sent me photos every day. Such peace of mind while I was away over Christmas was priceless. I can absolutely recommend Belinda.”
“It was a pleasure to ask Louise to cat and house sit for us again. She was comfortable with our two cats, confident giving medications to our one cat that needs them. She kept in touch with regular updates and photos, and left the place as she found it. Thank you so much Louise!”
“Freya looked after our two cats at our home for a few days, she looked after them so kindly and got to know them both! She also made sure our home was well looked after as well, and kept us updated with texts and videos of the cats every time she visited. She was excellent and we will definitely use her again, we highly recommend!”
“Very happy with Pedro. My dog Betty was especially relaxed around him and I felt happy with everything. When I returned home they were happy and had fresh water. Getting updates and pictures whilst I was out was very reassuring.”
“Sam was amazing, my kittens were so happy and well cared for and my house was lovely and clean which was so helpful after my holiday. Thank you so much, I'm sure the kittens can't wait to see you again! <3”

“Zoe was fabulous with our Henry! He’s a very pampered cat.. and isn’t sure of new people. But he was very settled and happy with Zoe. A chilled calm and happy little man when we returned home after a couple of days away. Zoe sent me a few photos- which is super reassuring. She took great care of our home. We would not hesitate to ask for Zoe again, or recommend her!”

My Approach I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect.

“Tracey was great. Ziggy is a nervous dog, particularly around strangers and at the meet and greet I really felt like Tracey listened to how best to approach her. Tracey's home and garden is perfect for dogs. Within an hour of dropping her off I'd had two videos of Ziggy having the time of her life and I got strangely emotional! Thank you.”
“First time customer of Tracey and first sleepover for Beni, my pup. Such a positive experience. As soon as you walk into Traceys she welcomed me and Beni into her home, reassuring me that Beni’s in good hands. Tracey sent pictures throughout the day, showing that Beni was fine and having fun. When it came to collection time Tracey told me about his night, and what he got up to the day before. Beni was as happily bouncing around, showing affection. Already booking for the next sleepover. Highly recommend. Such a lovely woman 💕”
“It’s obvious Sharon is a natural with dogs and very easy to talk to. This was Milo’s first time for day care with Sharon and she kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages. He had a lovely walk by the river. Milo must have felt at home as he actually ate all his dinner which he won’t always do when we’re not around. Would highly recommend and have no hesitation booking again. Thank you Sharon.”
“When Maria opened the door Florence greeted her in the same bouncy exuberant way she would if we returned home or if our closest family visited - this was perfect reassurance how well she is looked after in Maria's care. Maria is someone we've learned is genuine and caring, and we highly recommend her to anyone who might be worried about finding the perfect person to entrust caring for your precious canine friend.”
“Laura was so kind and accommodating. She met me before hand to make sure our dogs were a good fit, and we were able to take a walk together. On the day she watched my dog she was so flexible and kind. I arrived to pick up my dog late in the evening, much later than I really should have, but Laura was nothing but sweet. My dog seems well rested and calm, like she had a great evening. I will 100% be using Laura's dog sitting services again!”
“The perfect people, so kind friendly and generous can’t think of a better place to entrust the fur baby ! Hayley and family made art so welcome and made him part of the family for his stay, highly recommended”

I hold a National Diploma in Animal Care, am DBS checked, fully insured, and a proud member of NARPS UK (National Association of Pet Sitters & Dog Walkers). I am currently working part time, so have plenty of time to be as flexible as possible. Happy to work with owners to meet everyone’s needs. Care will be in owners own home. I am not wanting to bring pets out of the current routine. Please ask for more details on what I offer to keep pets happy in their own homes.
About: I grew up on a farm caring for a variety of dogs and cats, which has given me confidence with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I also completed two years of work experience at a vet practice, gaining hands-on knowledge of animal health and safe handling. I’m reliable, caring, and truly passionate about making pets feel safe and happy. I’m currently on my gap year working part time as a lifeguard, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets at any time in the day, seven days a week! Anima safety and comfort are always my top priority. I respect each owner’s home and follow all care instructions closely, keeping routines consistent to help pets feel secure. On walks, I’m attentive and cautious, always using safe handling practices and staying aware of my surroundings. I’m reliable, trustworthy, and happy to provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in safe hands.
About: I’ve always loved and cared for dogs. As they say I would rather a dog in my company than a human 😉 I will give your dog the love and care it deserves with plenty of belly rubs I recently left my mundane 9-5 job so I can spend more time looking after other people’s fur babies. It’s been my passion for years so eventually made the decision to make it my full time job. Who wouldn’t happy doing this 🐶 I have a fully enclosed garden with plenty of room for play or a relaxed area for rest. No dog ever leaves here sad 😄
“Finding someone who treats your dog with love and dedication is rare, which is why I'm thrilled to have found Freya who not only ensures my dog is happy but also goes on long walks to make sure she expends all her energy while I'm at work. It's a relief and a joy to know my furry friend is in such good hands.”
About: I currently live in the countryside with my partner and our cocker spaniel Albie! I have grown up around animals my whole life and couldn’t see a lifewithout them! I would love to be able to be an extra companion for your dog, cuddle buddy, walk mate or someone you can rely on when life gets busy! I am keen to help with walks, drop in visits and at home stays. Due to my experience with animals my whole life, I am comfortable with animals of all ages. I look forward to meeting your fury friends! I work nights as a carer so most days I am free to assist with your pets. Due to my sleep pattern, a few days notice is preferable but I am happy to help at short notice where I can! I am happy to adhere to any safety adjustments you have set for your pet, whether that be crate training when staying in your home or using safety leads. I never walk my pets in areas I am unfamiliar with to avoid any safety concerns when out and about.

“Otto had his first overnight stay and had a great time. Thank you again to Tracey for the care and attention she gave to Otto and the photos she sent to us. Another super stay 😊”
“We decided on a last minute trip out of the country. Anna worked with us every step of the way and made sure we were always in the know with our girl. She would send daily updates and photos. It was a peace of mind while we were away to know our dog was being loved and cared for by such a lovely family. Will use Anna again for boarding in the future.”
“Tatyana was very flexible and took in our dogs at short notice and had great communication throughout their stay. They were cared for well and we were very satisfied with her service.”
About: I’ve lived with and looked after many pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals. I regularly look after my friends dogs, cats and other small pets. I have a passion for dogs and although I don’t currently have my own I regularly walk dogs daily with friends and/or family. I’ve helped train puppies and also spent time caring for elder dogs. I currently work for a company that produces smart devices for pets so I am very familiar with animals and the wants and needs required to look after them and their welfare. I work fully remote for a pet device company and regularly spend my spare time with my friends and families pets. I’m active and love walking, I have completed the Camino de Santiago and enjoyed every step. Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own I have pet beds, bowls and other toys etc as I regularly look after dogs at my house. I make sure my house is pet friendly and love to get to know every animal I pet sit. A part of forming a bond and making sure they are cared for is understanding the behaviours and habits they already have and keeping as routine as you can to keep them safe and happy. I’ve regularly pet sat at friends homes and always treat their animals and homes with love and care.
“Our dog, Brodie, stayed for a week with Pedro and his parents. Pedro sent us a few videos in which Brodie looked very happy out walking. When we returned he was a bit fatter than before (not a problem as he was too skinny) and was therefore evidently well fed. He came home happy and unaffected by his first stay away from home. Pedro clearly has a big affinity with dogs.”
“This was the 1st time I'd had to leave my dog with anyone other than family so I was nervous how he would be - I needn't have been as he had a great time!!! Sharon sent regular photos and updates, the 1st one being shortly after I'd dropped him off ( it was very reassuring to see he wasn't fretting that we'd left him). I think Vinnie was reluctant to leave the spacious gardens and paddock behind when we picked him up! I would 100% recommend Sharon 😊”
“Sewwandi did such a great job with Bevo. They sent several pictures & videos and she communicated a lot with us providing updates throughout the day. Bevo didn’t have time to miss us between the walks and play time with their sweet little Boston, Poppy. They sent a few updates that let us know they were treating Bevo like she was their own. A week or so after her stay, we bumped into Sewwandi on a walk and Bevo lost her mind she was so excited to see her! I would recommend Sewwandi to anyone looking for a Rover!”
“Laura was brilliant with Lola, took very good care of her and had excellent communication with us. We would definitely recommend, and will be booking Lola in with Laura again next time we are in the area”
“I can not thank shahnaz and Andrew enough for looking after our Bailey. They made both Bailey and ourselves welcome and therefore happy leaving Bailey with them, cannot recommend them enough I will definitely being happy to leave Bailey with them again”
“Aimee was a great sitter for our dog! She played with her and took her on walks in the day and the evening. She sent us photos of our dog throughout the day. Aimee was flexible with our pickup time which was so helpful.”
“Archie had a lovely stay (as per usual). Came home very tired and happy 😊. Communication great - lots of messages and photos letting us know how Archie was getting on. Already have his next stay booked in 😊. Thank you Ross, Clara and Chesky 🐕”
“Janet and Bruce are just extraordinary. Their love of dogs is reflected clearly in the care and attention they gave my boy. I was nervous to leave my dog as he’d only been away from me once before, but I have no hesitation in saying I would ask them to watch Jack again in a heartbeat. They are calm and experienced, and sent photos and videos during his stay, as well as making sure he was happy as can be with lots of exercise, play, and cuddles. It was obvious how much Jack loved his time there when it was time to collect him, too. I highly recommend them if you want a couple who will care for your dog(s) as if they were their own. I couldn’t be happier and wish I could give them extra stars! Thank you both so much.”
“My dog Kara can be very shy and timid at new places, but it seemed like she had no problem settling in and making friends. Holly was incredibly sweet and caring and the environment was very cozy and relaxed. She was also very accommodating to me and my schedule which was great. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Lloyd took great care of my lively dog Babbo, and Hudson, Lloyds dog, taught Babbo some manners as well as gave him companionship. I know my dog is in good hands with Lloyd.”
“Rosie has had such a fun day!!!! Lovely walks and lots of fuss, she's certainly felt relaxed and at home. Jonathan and his wife looked after Rosie really well for the day. Thankyou 😊”
“Jack was amazing at looking after our two boys. Very good communication throughout their stay and just a nice genuine bloke, the dogs warmed to Jack straight away! Will deffo use again! Thanks buddy!”
“Wonderful family to look after your dog! We Had lots of updates and our dog Terry made himself at home with Sarah and family very quickly! In fact I’m pretty sure he copped a strop when we bought him home because hes been missing his little friend Rudi. Thank you so much for having him, would definitely recommend and would definitely use again 🙂”
