“This was the 2nd time Honey has been on her own little holiday at Diane’s lovely home and couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter. Highly recommended always can relax knowing she’s being loved and cared for with updated pics and messages even a birthday message for my daughter from honey was so lovely and thoughtful. Thank you again will definitely be back for more dog sitting in the future.”
“Sidney was looked after sooo well, Nick and Louise really love dogs and we're brilliant at giving us updates and photos of Sid on walks. Sid got on well with Flo, their pug which was great as Sid is a really social dog and this would have been fab for him to have a playmate. Thank you very much, we will definitely send Sid to you again xx”
“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
“Marley was really happy staying with Jasmine and we will definitely want her to be able to look after her again when we need. We met Jasmine before Marleys stay and instantly thought she would be perfect and we were right. Jasmine is really lovely. Thank You.”
About: I enjoy looking after both dogs and cats my passion shows and i have been booked repeatedly by past clients I have no Pets myself I am currently semi retired which leaves me time to provide my pet care to those in work or on holiday I am able to meet the needs of your pets. I have a spacious house with a lovely sized garden which is safe and secure for your pets I am withing walking distance of local parks and walks.
About: Hi! I’m Caitlin, a huge dog lover and proud owner of my Fox Red Labrador, Wesley 🐾 I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your dog with someone else, so I’d love to provide a safe, loving home away from home environment while you’re away. I’m used to all the fun (and chaos!) that comes with having a dog and understand that every pup has their own personality, routine and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing, cuddles on the sofa or simply having someone around, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and feel settled and happy. I’m reliable, caring and would treat your dog exactly as I’d want Wesley to be treated. I’m also happy to keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away, because I know you’ll probably want to see what they’re getting up to! 🥰 I’d love to get to know you and your dog and hopefully become their favourite home away from home. I work full time from home, so I have plenty of flexibility around caring for your dog. I’m available for boarding throughout weekends and can accommodate weekday bookings depending on my work schedule. I have a secure, fenced garden and a friendly Labrador, Wesley, who loves having other dogs around. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable and part of the family. I’m also happy to follow their usual routine, including walks, feeding and crate sleeping if needed. Wesley gets walked 2-3 times a day in the woodlands opposite our estate. He also loves his trips to the park and the beach! 🏝️
“Ellie enjoyed her stay with Ruth again and got on well with some of the other dogs that came and went over her 16 night stay. Ruth kept in touch with us and sent updates every couple of days, along with catering to Ellie’s dietary needs. I would highly recommend Ruth to anyone looking for someone to look after their fur baby, as she is a kind and calm person to be around. This was our 2nd time using Ruth and we’ve already booked Ellie’s next stay with her, for later this month.”
“Andrea is great with our dog, Tarly. He is very happy to stay with her and Estelle. We received photos and a video and knew he was having lovely walks in the snow. Andrea also was very accommodating and patient when we had car issues which delayed us. We highly recommend Andrea.”
“We are so grateful to have Jan look after Trixie again, Trixie was very excited to see her and Mabel! It gives us such peace of mind knowing Trixie is in safe, caring hands. Jan is incredibly communicative, sends lovely photo updates, and follows Trixie's routine perfectly. Trixie absolutely loves staying there and we couldn't recommend Jan enough!”
About: Myself and husband Alan were raised with family dogs and once married we got our first family pet Billy who was a golden Labrador. He was loved by all due to his temperament and behaviour around everyone and we were devastated to lose him aged 13. After 18 months we missed the companionship we always had with Billy and chose Mabel the labradoodle who was 12 weeks when she came to live with us. She became our 3rd child and was cherished from the start. Sadly we lost her aged 12 years and 6 months 2 years ago. Both our grown children now have dogs which we regularly look after when they go away. We both love having them for ‘sleepovers’ and love walking with the ‘grand’ dogs as they both fit into our family unit. Due to commitments we now have with 4 grandchildren we are not in a position to have another dog full time but miss the company and regular walks. We would love to have the opportunity to help people out on a short term basis. I work part time and look after grandchildren for one day. Alan works full time. Looking after a dog on a short term basis on the days we can where we are completely free to will mean we can give regular exercise & love. We have an enclosed garden for safety & security. All dogs will have full access to our house at any time they are here with us.
“Rarely do I find two people who genuinely care for the dogs they look after like Jaques and Anne. My dog was really at home with them and we will definitely be back. They really made an effort to understood her personality which made it easy for her to settle in. Regular updates were also much appreciated.”
“This was the first time Malky had stayed with Karolina and Daisy. Its always a bit of concern as to how your furry friend will get on without you. But I had no reason to be concerned at all. From the pre-stay meet up to the full stay Malky had a lovely time. Karolina gave regular updates followed all our instructions and was amazingly kind. Would book again without hesitation.”
About: Myself and my partner have both grown up around dogs. We look after family and friends dogs as well as our 1 year 8 month old Beagle called Rolo who we welcomed in to our family from 8 weeks old. He is treated like a prince👑 as will your furbaby while staying with us. Any training you’re currently doing or want us to start can be carried on whilst you’re on holiday. I am currently on Maternity Leave so I am able to give all the love and attention to make your furbaby feel comfortable, safe and at home. My partner Tom is home of an evening and takes Rolo (our dog) for his evening walk and gives him plenty of loving fuss as he will with yours! We have a fenced garden and have an energetic Beagle to keep your furbaby company while they’re here on their holidays. Crate trained dogs only please! Also If that’s something we can help you with we are more than happy to help. Your furbaby must be ok with other dogs and young children/babies. No furbaby’s in the bed but welcome on the sofa for a lovely cuddle and cheeky post walk nap (if they would like)!
“Sylvia was cognisant of the fact that Archie was away from home for the first time and handled him appropriately. I was pleased with the feedback that I got plus the photos. She asked about anything that she was unsure of, to do with his behaviour and how we fed him etc I will use Sylvia again knowing that I can feel at ease while on holiday.”
“Took our Nala on very short notice , met up before the booking to make sure both our dogs got on together , they did and Lulu was a lovely girl, whilst we was away for the weekend i was kept updated on the day and what they had planned sent lots of pictures and dog walks . Would highly reccomend Alberto for looking after your dog . Thank you, we will definitely use again if ever we needed dog boarding.”
“This was Jake's first 2 nights away, and we were worried about him and how he'd react. We didn't need to worry. Abigail ensured Jake was comfy and content. Kept us updated, and put us at ease. The bonus part of him staying over was the fact that he gained more confidence around Rory, and got to have a play buddy for his time away. Realistically, I don't think Jake remembered to miss us, because he was having such a great time.”
“Izzy and Dan were fantastic hosts for my dog Lacey. She had a wonderful stay with them, full of lovely outings and adventures. I can tell they really care about the dogs they look after: Lacey was so well looked after the whole time. I especially loved the daily updates with photos and videos, which made it easy to relax knowing she was happy and having fun. I would highly recommend Izzy and Dan to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring dog sitters. Thank you both!”
“Pablo had the best five-night stay with Jules! So easy to communicate with and sent the most creative updates while we were away. Pablo enjoyed lots of cuddles and pup cups! We’d absolutely recommend Jules and would happily book with them again.”

Cat caregivers near you - Hoveton
Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I have always been exposed to cats through friends and family members. I call myself a cat whisperer because when Im told that a cat doesn’t like people it usually loves me! The dog owner I used to dog sit for wrote me a reference if you would like to see that then please let me know! My year of pet experience has only been with dogs however I have always been around different kinds of cats and I understand their behaviours.
About: I’ve shared my home with cats for many years and understand that every cat has their own personality, routine and needs. I know how important it is for owners to feel confident that their cat is happy and well cared for while they’re away. I’ll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter tray, plenty of fuss if they enjoy it, or simply quiet company if they prefer their own space. I’ll also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing everything is going well. I’m reliable, organised and caring, and I’ll look after your cat and your home with the same respect and attention that I’d want for my own.
“Sarah is an absolute gem of a sitter and I can’t rate her high enough, She went over and above to help with other issues , and my cats, although timid at first , warmed to her throughout the week. Daily photos received and I will definitely be a returning customer x”
“Julie has been amazing. She was popular with our cats from her first visit, one of which is particularly nervous of new people. Julie sent regular photos and updates which meant we could enjoy our holiday knowing the kitties were happy. Would recommend Julie to anyone. 😃”
About: I've shared my life with cats for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for cats with a range of ages, personalities and needs. Growing up, our family always had cats, and over the years I've helped care for everything from newborn kittens to senior cats. I've helped to deliver kittens and have hands-on experience supporting cats with additional health needs. One of our kittens was born with hydrocephalus, and we provided him with dedicated care and support throughout his life. This experience taught me patience, compassion and the importance of understanding that every cat is unique. As a previous cat owner, I understand feline behaviour, body language, routines and the importance of allowing cats to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. Whether your cat is confident and sociable or shy and independent, I will always respect their personality and care for them at their own pace. These days, I love helping cat owners enjoy time away from home knowing their cats are being cared for by someone who genuinely understands and appreciates them. Alongside caring for pets, I also take pride in looking after homes, ensuring owners return to a happy cat and a well cared for space.
About: I specialize in drop-ins that go beyond just feeding. I provide engaging play sessions tailored to your cat's energy level, and I always ensure my clients get daily photo updates and detailed reports of litter box activity
“Hermione went above and beyond to ensure our cats were happy and healthy whilst we were away. She kept us updated the whole time with pictures and message updates, which was great as it was our first time leaving them with anyone but family. Would absolutely not hesitate to book again!!”
“I was so pleased to have Ann visit and feed my cat whilst I was away for a couple of days. Communication was easy and I felt confident that my cat was left in good hands, which indeed she was. Thank you!”
About: Hi I’m Kelly, I have had animals since as long as I can remember, they have always been a huge part of the family.

We have one cat and one lovely dog called Mini - they live in harmony together. We do have a door that can separate the house into two areas if the animals that we look after don’t get along. Animals are my passion and I would love to be the house away from home for your fur baby whilst you are away. I would love to hear from you so please message me if you have any questions. References available on request so please do ask! I have experience looking after pugs (my mum has pugs too) french bull dogs, German shepherds, huskies, Labrador’s, labradoodles and jack Russell’s I am always happy to have a phone/ video call prior to booking so you are comfortable with me and the environment your pet will be staying in.
“Elizabeth not only took great care of martha, keeping her company and making sure she was fed and watered but also went above and beyond to help us get the keys back after a technical mishap. Great service and great communication.”
About: I’m a devoted animal lover having cat-sat a couple times my neighbours’ cats and know how important it is to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I provide feeding, litter care, playtime, and plenty of snuggles, and I’ll send you updates so you can relax knowing your kitty is in good hands. 😊
About: PLEASE NOTE: During the week i am at work 9-5 Dogs will receive decent 30 minutes + walks. Walks can be up to 1hr30 depending on the needs of the dog, and I'm happy to do two shorter walks if preferred. I am happy to feed at specified times, and confident giving medication to dogs where needed. Drop in will include refilling water bowls, feeding (if necessary), at least 20 minutes of company and a toilet break before I leave to ensure no little surprises for when you get home! I will keep you updated with messages and photos whilst I'm with your fur baby! I work full time, so during the week dogs will be monitored by camera during the day. At weekends we like to go out and explore nature and go on big long walks! I have a fenced garden and a lovely dog who will keep your pup company whilst they are with us! We have a huge water bowl that is always full of fresh water and plenty of treats on hand to reward good behaviour!

“Leanna was fantastic at providing doggy day care for Luca! I appreciated how she asked questions beforehand to make sure she knew a little about him and was prepared, kept us updated throughout the day with pictures & comments and it was clear he had had a great time. He came back tired and happy. Thanks Leanna and we would definitely book you again!”

“Amazing! Great giving me lots of information and asking questions prior to our first visit. So friendly and welcoming when dropping him off and then updates and photos in the day - just the reassurance I didn’t know I wanted! At pick up he was so happy playing barely noticed me! Will certainly be recommending and re-using Amy! 🖤”
“Pinar took such good care of our miniature dachshund bramble. She gave us lots of updates throughout, photos and videos. We felt like Pintar and her family looked after Bramble as if she was their own dog. Would definitely recommend her to anyone”

“We were travelling to Norwich for a family wedding but did not want to leave our French Bulldog Claude in kennels. Cara looked after him over the weekend. As soon as I met her I knew that he would be well looked after! I felt completely at ease and Claude was quite happy to stay with Cara. She was a wonderful sitter and a lovely person. Claude had a great time and we were able to enjoy our wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Cara. She went above and beyond to help us during our stay - even bringing Claude back to our Airbnb. Thank you so much you’re a star!”
About: I absolutely adore animals since I know myself and working with dogs has been one of the best things I could do for myself and also other people. I have been surrounded by animals since I was a child and I find life empty without them. Being self employed allowed me to meet lots of great pets and that gave me a lot of joy. I have recently opened my own business called “waggysniffsnorwich” on instagram where you can keep up with updates and check out my best pooches 🐾 I currently work from home and I can definitely fit a walk or visit around my schedule. I can also work remotely from any location. I can only have small dogs in my house and because I don’t have a garden they have to be trained or pretty well behaved.

About: I used to be a self employed dog sitter. I had to look after six dogs at a time on occasions, I always remained calm and kept the dogs happy.

I have work experience from a veterinary clinic in South Africa where I was responsible for cleaning multiple dogs and cats and entertaining them while they were waiting to be checked by the Vet. I also have past experience in owning my own dog whom I took very good care of. I am currently taking a gap year before I start university in Norwich and so I am available most days of the week. The only time I am not available is Saturday and Sunday. I will care for your animal to the best of my ability. Not only will I care for them but I will make sure that they are entertained and happy. I will follow all the rules that are given to me by the pet owner and I will make sure that I complete all the instructions given to me with enthusiasm.
“Patryece is fantastic. Incredible with dogs and understands them well. Took on my Giant schnauzer, Lulu, who is a massive dog and quite a bundle of energy but Patryece was absolutely natural and brilliant with her. So pleased to have been able to get cover so quickly. And very good comms throughout. Don’t hesitate to book!”

About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was about 7, when we got our first rescue dog (King Charles Cavalier x Cocker Spaniel). I have always loved dogs and wanted to be involved in taking care of our pets. Later on we got two more rescues (Border Collies) and I had to learn how to make them feel safe and happy. Over the years I have spent lots of time taking care of them and taking them on walks. I have also fostered a dog while looking for its new home and taken care of my neighbours and friend’s dogs while they are away. I am currently working part time but I am looking to make this my full time job so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. My current job is also very flexible so I am able to work around it easily. Everyone has their own rules for their pets and I would like to help you stick to those rules or training for your dog so whatever your pet needs let me know and I’m happy to help.

About: I have a BSc(Hons) degree in Animal Behaviour, Management & Welfare, current pet first aid certificate and 12+ years experience as a dog walker/pet sitter I run my dog walking and pet sitting business full time, working weekdays and weekends. I have been self employed for over 12 years now. I look after pets in their owners home to ensure their normal routine can be followed as closely as possible to reduce stress and anxiety
About: Hi, I’m Abigail! 🐾 After six years in the emergency services, I decided to give up the uniform and follow my passion for dogs, the outdoors, and providing a safe, trustworthy service for pet owners. I provide a calm, secure, and welcoming home where your dog will feel completely at ease. Your dog/s will have constant care, attention, and plenty of affection throughout their stay. I’m home full-time, so your dog’s routine, safety, and happiness are always my priority. I have a large, fully secure garden with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, giving dogs plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy themselves safely. I share my home with my friendly Irish Setter, Rory, who is gentle, playful, and great with other dogs. He loves company and helps create a relaxed, social environment for visiting dogs. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages — from young puppies to senior dogs — and I’m confident supporting different needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter, slower pace, I will adapt to them. I come from a professional background where trust, responsibility, and safety were essential, and I bring that same level of care and attention into looking after every dog. 🐾 What you can expect: * A home-from-home environment * Dogs are never left alone * Secure garden for safe outdoor time * Walks tailored to your dog (on or off lead) * Regular updates, photos, and communication * Flexible and attentive care to suit your dog’s routine I’m very mindful that every dog is different, so I will always follow your instructions closely — from feeding and walking to sleep routines and preferences. I’m happy to care for dogs who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance — just let me know what helps them feel comfortable. We look forward to welcoming your dog into our home and giving you complete peace of mind ✨ Our calendar is kept up to date daily, and we’re always quick to respond to messages. We’re home seven days a week, so your dog will never be left alone. 🏡 A safe, secure, and relaxed environment My home is spacious and set up to give dogs a calm, safe place to settle in and feel comfortable. The garden is fully secure with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, so dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely. I live on a quiet, secluded street away from main roads, creating a peaceful environment that’s ideal for dogs of all temperaments. The garden is a great size for all breeds, with plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy a good run around. Large patio doors open directly onto the garden, allowing dogs to move freely between inside and outside when appropriate. They can also be closed to create a calm, cosy space for rest and nap times. Inside, the home is open-plan with plenty of room to relax, along with soft furnishings and lots of toys to keep dogs happy and entertained. For added safety, all human food is kept well out of reach, so you can feel confident your dog is in a secure and carefully managed environment.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets. I studied Animal Care at college, completing both Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications, which gave me a solid understanding of animal welfare, behaviour, health, and handling. I also spent four years working at Redwings Horse Sanctuary, where I cared for horses and donkeys, where I learned the importance of providing consistent, compassionate care tailored to each animal's individual needs. This experience strengthened my confidence in handling animals, recognising signs of illness or stress, and maintaining high welfare standards. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up and into adulthood, I've cared for dogs, cats, rats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs, so I'm comfortable looking after pets with all kinds of personalities, needs, and routines. While I don't currently have pets of my own, I regularly spend time with my best friend's adorable sausage dogs, Dolly and Flossy, and her ragdoll cat, Nancy. I help care for them whenever needed, whether that's feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company while my bestie is away. One of the reasons I've joined Rover is because there's definitely a pet-shaped hole in my life! I genuinely love being around animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I'll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection that I would my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I work full-time Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 4:30pm, which means I can provide care before and after work during the week. I'm available for morning visits before work for feeding, toilet breaks, walks, and companionship, and then have plenty of time in the evenings for longer walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and any other care your pet needs. My weekends are generally much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate even more time to pet care and ensuring your pets receive plenty of attention and company. I'm organised, reliable, and committed to sticking to your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with both your beloved pet and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My priority is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away by following their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if required), and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in an owner's home, I will always treat your property with the same respect and care that I would my own. I'm reliable, tidy, and considerate, and I'll make sure your home is kept secure and left exactly as I found it. I believe good communication is important, so I'm happy to provide regular updates, photos, and messages for extra peace of mind while you're away. With my Animal Care qualifications, four years of experience at Redwings Horse Sanctuary, and a lifetime spent caring for animals, you can be confident that your pet will be in caring, capable hands. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel relaxed, happy, and reassured throughout the entire experience.

“Thank you to Amy (and her kids) for walking our dog Paco while he stayed at my parents in Aylsham. He can be a handful sometimes and difficult with other dogs, but I felt he was in safe hands. Amy sent photos and maps of the routes they had walked. Thank you!”
About: I grew up in a dog-loving home with an Irish Red Setter rescue and a Doberman we raised from a puppy, so I'm no stranger to big dogs with big personalities. Over the years, I've cared for pups of all sizes, breeds, and ages - from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while you're away. A recent move means I am now taking on new clients in and around Norwich. Please see my reviews and reach out for a chat if I can help to care for your pup! I’m working from home, with plenty of gaps in between for toilet breaks and walks in the park - I like to get away from my desk when I can and would love for your dog to join me. I’ve been house sitting for a number of years, both through Rover (please check my reviews) and word of mouth from my existing clients. I will care for your home as if it is my own. I am happy to discuss carrying out tasks unrelated to your pup, too.
About: Hi, I’m Dori and I’ve been caring for friends’ and neighbours’ dogs and cats for over 8 years. I love getting to see every animal’s personality, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and dependable, whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or giving lots of snuggles, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. I’m happy to keep you updated with photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m excited to meet and provide the same reliable, caring service that my friends and family have trusted me with for years! ☺️ I’m a Speech and Language Therapy student at UEA- I’m especially reliable for weekday afternoons, evenings for walks. If you require housesitting it’s worth checking in, but October-July I spend long days at uni. I’m a lot more flexible during uni breaks. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and mental stimulation. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions from their owners!
“Pinar was so incredibly kind, gentle, and loving with my dog Jasper. Upon our initial meeting, I knew my anxious pup would be safe with her! I loved getting updates and pictures that showed just how much activity and love Jasper got. Pinar’s experience and reliability makes her a superb pet carer. I absolutely recommend Pinar and look forward to to hiring her again!”
About: Me and my partner work from home full time and would love the company of a four-legged friend. I only ever take in one dog at a time, this means your dog gets 100% of my attention, the best spot on the sofa, and a routine that doesn't change just because they aren't at home. I keep my client list small and exclusive to ensure I can be available when you need it most. My home is a calm and quiet space, I have no dogs or kids of my own and live it a very quite estate on the edge of norwich. Whether we’re heading out for a long afternoon walk or just hanging out while I’m at my desk, your dog will be treated exactly like my own. They’ll have the run of the house and plenty of belly rubs. I have a completely fenced garden which they have access to as much as needed. I have a very cosy office with a sofa they have exclusive use of.
“Maisie absolutely loved her time with Georgia. She sat waiting excitedly by the front door to go out on her adventures and came home contented. Georgia was fantastic with Maisie, responsive to my messages and put me at ease leaving her. I would not hesitate to book Georgia again.”

“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
About: Hi! I’m Caitlin, a huge dog lover and proud owner of my Fox Red Labrador, Wesley 🐾 I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your dog with someone else, so I’d love to provide a safe, loving home away from home environment while you’re away. I’m used to all the fun (and chaos!) that comes with having a dog and understand that every pup has their own personality, routine and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing, cuddles on the sofa or simply having someone around, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and feel settled and happy. I’m reliable, caring and would treat your dog exactly as I’d want Wesley to be treated. I’m also happy to keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away, because I know you’ll probably want to see what they’re getting up to! 🥰 I’d love to get to know you and your dog and hopefully become their favourite home away from home. I work full time from home, so I have plenty of flexibility around caring for your dog. I’m available for boarding throughout weekends and can accommodate weekday bookings depending on my work schedule. I have a secure, fenced garden and a friendly Labrador, Wesley, who loves having other dogs around. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable and part of the family. I’m also happy to follow their usual routine, including walks, feeding and crate sleeping if needed. Wesley gets walked 2-3 times a day in the woodlands opposite our estate. He also loves his trips to the park and the beach! 🏝️
“Andrea is great with our dog, Tarly. He is very happy to stay with her and Estelle. We received photos and a video and knew he was having lovely walks in the snow. Andrea also was very accommodating and patient when we had car issues which delayed us. We highly recommend Andrea.”
“We are so grateful to have Jan look after Trixie again, Trixie was very excited to see her and Mabel! It gives us such peace of mind knowing Trixie is in safe, caring hands. Jan is incredibly communicative, sends lovely photo updates, and follows Trixie's routine perfectly. Trixie absolutely loves staying there and we couldn't recommend Jan enough!”
About: Myself and husband Alan were raised with family dogs and once married we got our first family pet Billy who was a golden Labrador. He was loved by all due to his temperament and behaviour around everyone and we were devastated to lose him aged 13. After 18 months we missed the companionship we always had with Billy and chose Mabel the labradoodle who was 12 weeks when she came to live with us. She became our 3rd child and was cherished from the start. Sadly we lost her aged 12 years and 6 months 2 years ago. Both our grown children now have dogs which we regularly look after when they go away. We both love having them for ‘sleepovers’ and love walking with the ‘grand’ dogs as they both fit into our family unit. Due to commitments we now have with 4 grandchildren we are not in a position to have another dog full time but miss the company and regular walks. We would love to have the opportunity to help people out on a short term basis. I work part time and look after grandchildren for one day. Alan works full time. Looking after a dog on a short term basis on the days we can where we are completely free to will mean we can give regular exercise & love. We have an enclosed garden for safety & security. All dogs will have full access to our house at any time they are here with us.
“This was the first time Malky had stayed with Karolina and Daisy. Its always a bit of concern as to how your furry friend will get on without you. But I had no reason to be concerned at all. From the pre-stay meet up to the full stay Malky had a lovely time. Karolina gave regular updates followed all our instructions and was amazingly kind. Would book again without hesitation.”
“Sylvia was cognisant of the fact that Archie was away from home for the first time and handled him appropriately. I was pleased with the feedback that I got plus the photos. She asked about anything that she was unsure of, to do with his behaviour and how we fed him etc I will use Sylvia again knowing that I can feel at ease while on holiday.”
“Took our Nala on very short notice , met up before the booking to make sure both our dogs got on together , they did and Lulu was a lovely girl, whilst we was away for the weekend i was kept updated on the day and what they had planned sent lots of pictures and dog walks . Would highly reccomend Alberto for looking after your dog . Thank you, we will definitely use again if ever we needed dog boarding.”
“This was Jake's first 2 nights away, and we were worried about him and how he'd react. We didn't need to worry. Abigail ensured Jake was comfy and content. Kept us updated, and put us at ease. The bonus part of him staying over was the fact that he gained more confidence around Rory, and got to have a play buddy for his time away. Realistically, I don't think Jake remembered to miss us, because he was having such a great time.”
“Izzy and Dan were fantastic hosts for my dog Lacey. She had a wonderful stay with them, full of lovely outings and adventures. I can tell they really care about the dogs they look after: Lacey was so well looked after the whole time. I especially loved the daily updates with photos and videos, which made it easy to relax knowing she was happy and having fun. I would highly recommend Izzy and Dan to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring dog sitters. Thank you both!”
“Pablo had the best five-night stay with Jules! So easy to communicate with and sent the most creative updates while we were away. Pablo enjoyed lots of cuddles and pup cups! We’d absolutely recommend Jules and would happily book with them again.”
“I am so happy to have found such a caring’ home from home ‘ for my dog Ruby. Pinar is caring, so knowledgable and sensitive to the animals and very professional. Highly recommend.”
“Excellent communication, regular updates and photos/videos of mac. He looks like he’s had the best time, thoroughly spoilt. Thank you so much for looking after him, would definitely recommend x”
“We had a wonderful experience with Elliott and Fran. They were incredibly friendly, reliable, and took such great care of our dog, Maisie. It was clear that Maisie was happy, comfortable, and well looked after while we were away. We really appreciated the updates and the genuine care they showed. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and will definitely be booking again!”
“What can I say about Cookies stay. It was fantastic. Christina took such care of Cookie and put my mind at ease as this was the first time that Cookie has ever been left. Photo and video updates all day long. Which were very much appreciated. Andy, Christina's husband was great with Cookie too. They have a love for animals that shines through. I would recommend them to anyone. I will definitely be asking them to look after Cookie again with out hesitation. Thank you so much from me and Cookie. ❤️🐶👍😁”
“Mat and his family were amazing. They looked after my parents Cockapoo while we went away and he was treated just like he was their dog. We were sent daily updates and Hughie was very happy, as were we that he was being so well looked after. Would highly recommend!”
“Louise took Winnie for me very last minute due to personal bereavement and she was so lovely and very responsive. They live in a beautiful farmhouse with so much land with a fully protective garden. I got sent plenty of photos and Winnie was very loved and looked after by the family. I highly recommend Louise to look after your furry loved ones and thank you again!”
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our Otto (18 months, Alusky). She kept us updated daily with photos and stories from his adventures, and it was clear he felt right at home. Otto had such a joyful time with Elizabeth and Fergus, we couldn’t have asked for better care.”
