“Alix was great from start to finish. Great communication with plenty of photos for reassurance. Chewy loved her stay and came home really happy and well exercised.”
“Rosy & Rich were absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process and very communicative. They looked after our dog Lola during our wedding and it was a great relief to know she was being looked after so well. They are clearly dog lovers and very adept and confident in looking after dogs”
“I can’t rate Zy highly enough. We were travelling to meet friends and needed someone to leave our dog with for the night. Zy met us on FaceTime and was so easy to communicate with. Max obviously had the best time in the most gorgeous rural location. Just wish we lived closer so she coukd look after him regularly! Thank you 😊”
“Inga is highly recommended by us!! Herself and her family treated our dog as their own and gave her so much love and attention. We received regular updates and pictures which showed us how much our dog was enjoying herself. We would definitely use Inga as a sitter again:)”
“Karen and her husband stepped in for us over Christmas when our original plans changed due to a family matter. Our little dog Rosie settled straight in and was super well loved and looked after. Karen and her husband were super helpful at making the process of leaving our dog very easy and we were sent regular updates and photos. Rosie was super happy to be left and was allowed to treat their house as her own - which we are super grateful for. A very big and secure garden to play in. We will not hesitate to book with Karen again when needed. Thank you so so much x”
“Lisa was absolutely brilliant with our border terrier, Dilly. Dilly and I met up with Lisa for a 'get to know you' walk and it was clear that Dilly was in really safe hands. Lisa kept us updated with photos of Dilly whilst we were away which really allowed us to relax, knowing someone was making as much fuss of our little girl as we would be. Can't recommend enough. Thanks again Lisa!!”
“Steven was an absolute pleasure to deal with. I recieved lots of photos and regular updates. He also went above and beyond to make sure Indy felt at home and had a wonderful stay, with lots of walks and pampering! I would highly recommend and will certainly be rebooking with Steven again.”
“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.”
“Chloe provided great care to our dog while we were away on holiday. Chloe provided daily photos and updates which were always well received. I would highly recommend Chloe for your dog boarding needs!”
“Jess was great, very responsive and really attentive to quite the nervous dog. She went out of her way to make sure our dog was well cared for and gave us regular updates. Would definitely use her again and can't thank her and her partner enough for the care provided.”
“Jack had such a lovely holiday with Lauren, we were worried he wouldn't want to come home! Lauren kept us up to date with video of him having lots of fun with other dogs and looking quite at home and relaxed in Lauren's home. Highly recommend!”
“Donna was absolutely wonderful looking after our pup. She kept in regular touch with us, sent us lots of lovely photos and made sure he had plenty of walks, cuddles and attention. It was such a relief knowing he was happy, well cared for and having a great time while we were away. We really appreciated how thoughtful and caring Donna was, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have her look after him again. Highly recommended! ❤️”
About: Hi! I’m a self-employed dog lover who works from home Monday–Friday, so I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, walks and, of course, cuddles! I live in a spacious two-bedroom flat with my own dog, Vinny. While we don’t have a private garden, we do have a communal outdoor space for toilet breaks, and I make sure Vinny gets two 45-minute walks every day. We’re lucky to have plenty of lovely options nearby, from open fields and woodland to peaceful walks through the village. At home, life is nice and relaxed. Vinny is usually snoozing on the sofa, or happily working away at a frozen Kong or LickiMat. I’m happy to keep your dog’s usual routine as much as possible, whether they’re full of energy and love a good walk or are more of a professional sofa-snoozer! I’ve always loved animals and have had pets throughout my life, including dogs, rabbits and ducks. We’d love to have a second dog of our own one day, but in the meantime I’d love to welcome some local four-legged friends into our home and give them a safe, comfortable and loving place to stay. Your dog will be treated like one of the family, with plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I’d love to meet you and your pup and see if we’re a good match!

“Amazing stay for our dog Ralph! Miriam and her partner are incredible. Gorgeous home and setting with the added bonus of their dog Milo, a perfect companion for Ralph. Leaving Ralph as a family would usually make us feel guilty but seeing him so happy with beautiful photos and videos from Miriam made us feel so relaxed and happy. Ralph actually had a luxury weekend break, made friends and enjoyed a bubble bath 🥰🙏🏼 Could not be happier that we found Miriam as she just made everything so easy and chilled even down to us needing an extra night stay at a last minute request. Everything was so simple and easy. So Grateful 🙏🏼 Ralph will be back very soon as he misses Milo 🐶”
About: We have a large fenced garden and a cosy home and your dogs will be treated as part of our family during their stay. I understand the importance of routine, especially when dogs are in a new environment, and will ensure they are cared for exactly as you request with plenty of photo updates throughout the stay. I totally understand the desire for your dogs to feel loved and cared for when you are away - rest assured they will be doted on! We have 2 friendly female resident dogs who love having doggy mates, Bonnie (7 yr old cockapoo) and Inka (3 yr old Frenchie), so your dog will have some canine company. I'm currently on maternity leave and have plenty of time to be with your pup and give them lots of attention, cuddles and exercise. My husband works from home 100% of the time, so there will always be company for your dog. I have a secure, large fenced garden with plenty of grass and space for playing. It is clean and hazard free, and easily accessible from the kitchen.
“Wade and Michelle took amazing care of our very nervous and quite high maintenance dog, Cookie. They very kindly met Cookie in advance, and during the stay sent regular updates and photos of them on walks and snuggling on the sofa. They are a lovely family and we will be using them again.”

“Nicola was absolutely fantastic, giving us daily updates for our cat while we were on holiday. She went above and beyond and was really accomidating for feeding, playtime and giving medicine. Would absolutely book again!”
“Gaby took great care of our cats, Daisy and Rosie, while we were away. Daisy is diabetic and needs insulin injections twice a day, which Gaby hadn’t done before, but she was very willing to learn and handled them well. She updated me often and also sent photos. Both cats were well looked after and we appreciated the care she gave them.”
“Wiktoria has been very attentive to our cats and to us. She sent daily photos and updates on their well-being. I will definitely use her services again if she is available. I am very pleased with her service.”
About: I have always had cats in my family until several years ago when we lost out last cat, I unfortunately do not have time to commit to having a cat full time but love being involved with them and having a cats in my life again would be lovely.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since childhood. We had a few stray cats in the neighbourhood, and I used feed them and play with them whenever I had time. I’ve also taken care of friends cats and always enjoyed it.
About: When I was 14, one of the two kittens that was brought back home was very sickly and not accepting solid food. By syringe feeding her, I brought Toulouse back to full strength, and she is still going strong till this day.
About: I’ve been around and caring for cats since I was young and understand that every cat has their own personality, routine and boundaries. I’m confident caring for cats of different ages and temperaments, including older cats who may need a little more patience, attention and a quieter approach. I’m happy to follow feeding routines, clean litter trays, give medication where required, provide play and enrichment, and of course give affection on their terms. I know some cats can take time to feel comfortable with someone new, so I never force interaction. I let them come to me and make sure they feel safe and settled in their own home. I’m reliable, attentive and happy to send regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your cat is being properly cared for while you’re away.
“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.”
About: I've taken care of over 50 pets and I've lived in a house surrounded by pets so they get used to me quite easy. I sometimes attract pets outdoors.💖 I am quite flexible with my schedule so I can also sit last minute. Currently rent so I can't take them in my house but I can visit coffees or parks I normally enjoy playing with the animals, feed and clean after them. I am quite creative so it won't be boring, usually focusing on the pet
About: I have grown up around cats my whole life, visited friends and family who own cats and even house sat for cats before too! I’m qualified vet nurse assistant level 2, fully first aid trained and have knowledge of behaviour issues. I went to college at writtle university college, I looked after the cats everyday. Unfortunately I cannot to board as I own two dogs who have a high prey drive, but I’m more then happy to house sit for your little furries. Or drop in for cuddles!
“I can strongly recommend Cassie. This is the first time I have booked Cassie and from the meet and greet I was very impressed with how she approached my 3 elderly cats and they loved her. Even my very shy, timid cat was rolling over onto her back for a tummy tickle within a couple of days. Cassie sent twice daily updates and they all looked great.”
“Thank you Annie for stopping in at short notice to give Kai a run around and lots of fun playing! The updates you sent were great and we’d happily recommend you or have you look after Kai again!”
“Ben obviously adores animals and our cat Milly bonded with him straight away. When we returned home we had a calm, chilled out ragdoll who had been well cared for. Ben was very professional and had a calm, reassuring manner. I would recommend him 100%.”
“Looked after fudge well and followed instructions and gave me daily updates. Reliable and trustworthy, really helped me out when I was desperately in need of someone to look after her.”
About: # 🐾 About Me **Over 40 years of experience with cats and dogs ❤️** Hello, I’m Philippa. I’ve grown up surrounded by cats and dogs, and animals have always had a very special place in my heart. I’m a wife and mother and have run my own business for over 25 years. I’m now delighted to spend more of my time doing something I truly love!

“Milly went straight to Paul when arriving, which is a very good sign. Was very comfortable with him straight off. We understood she drank well there we can be a issue. They had a really good day together and we will defiantly be arranging some more doggie days.”
About: Dogs have always been at the heart of my life and caring for them has never simply been something I do - it is who I am. For me, this is not just a service, it is a privilege. I understand that every dog is a cherished member of the family and I treat each one with the same love, patience, kindness and unwavering devotion that I gave to my own. For 13 wonderful years, I was blessed to share my life with my beautiful Cavapoo, Colby. He was my constant companion, my best friend and I will always feel incredibly honoured that he chose me every day. The bond we shared shaped the way I care for animals and reinforced my belief that every dog deserves to feel safe, understood, loved and completely at ease. Following Colby's passing, I found myself deeply missing the daily joy of giving that love and care to a dog. It is this, more than anything, that inspired me to begin this new chapter. My aim is not simply to offer dog boarding, walking and house sitting, but to provide a home-from-home experience where every dog receives genuine affection, individual attention and the highest standard of care, as though they were my own. My experience extends well beyond everyday care. During Colby's later years, he bravely lived with heart failure, requiring an extensive and carefully managed medication regime. I administered multiple medications with precision, consistency and dedication while closely monitoring his health, comfort and changing needs. This experience has given me invaluable confidence in caring for senior dogs, administering medication and supporting dogs with ongoing medical conditions, always with patience, compassion and meticulous attention to detail. When you dog is in my care, they will be treated as my own family - with warmth, gentleness and genuine affection. My promise is to provide not only a safe and reliable service, but a nurturing environment where you dog feels secure, loved and truly at home 🐶❤️ I provide full-time, dedicated care tailored entirely to your dog's individual needs and routine. Whether they enjoy long walks and playtime, gentle companionship, plenty of cuddles and love, or simply a quiet place to relax, my focus is always on ensuring they feel safe, happy and loved. I offer house sitting in your home, boarding, drop in and dog walking throughout the week, including weekends and I am committed to maintaining your dog's usual routine as closely as possible to provide comfort, consistency and complete peace of mind while you are away. Safety, trust and a calm, secure environment are at the very heart of my care. I have no other pets or children in the home, ensuring a peaceful and undisturbed setting for your dog. My property benefits from a walled, secure garden and I am fortunate to be situated in a beautiful village with a country park and woodland walks right on my doorstep, offering safe, enriching and varied outdoor experiences in nature.

“We recently left our dog Bertie for the first time with Steven for the day. We found Steven to be very friendly, accommodating and he took on board all Bertie's needs. We had regular photos and updates on Bertie's stay throughout the day and on collection we were greeted by a very happy dog! We feel very comfortable to leave Bertie in Steven's good care in the future.”
“Tiffany and her family looked after our dogs, Mac and Tosh today while we were at a function. The whole process was stress free, the dogs were happy and at home with her. All went brilliantly. No hesitation in recommending Tiffany. Thank you Don and Hester”
“Amira loved her time with Inga & Bonnie. Amira is always scared around new people but she’s gotten used to Inga very quickly, which is great! Inga has been very patient with Amira’s constant demands to be petted.”
About: Hello, I’m Katie, and I understand how important it is to find the right person to care for your dog, so you can have real peace of mind while you’re away. I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have two of my own, a chocolate Labrador and a Border Terrier, so I’m very used to different personalities and needs. My Border Terrier can be anxious in unfamiliar environments, which has given me a good understanding of how to support dogs who need a bit more patience and reassurance. I’ve also cared for dogs for friends and family, including day care and holiday stays, and I’m comfortable supporting dogs with additional needs such as medication or minor care. My days follow a calm, consistent routine that balances activity and rest. Dogs in my care are included alongside my own, with regular outdoor time, play and countryside walks suited to their energy levels. There’s always time to relax as well, so dogs can settle into a comfortable, low-stress environment. I adapt the day to suit each dog, whether they prefer to be active and social or enjoy a quieter pace. Care is provided exclusively in my home, creating a safe, calm and personalised “home-from-home” environment. Dogs will have access to both the family space as well as a dedicated annex for cosy comfort, rest and quiet time, along with about 2 acres of fully secure outdoor lawn and woodland space for safe roaming, play and exploration. For everyone’s safety, I require a meet-and-greet in advance to ensure dogs are happy in the environment and get along well with my two dogs. I’m only able to accept dogs that are friendly and well socialised, and am happy to accommodate exclusive bookings upon request. I can also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your dog is happy, settled and well cared for.
About: I have years of experience looking after pets of friends, my own, and through word of mouth I have house sat for many others. I have looked after and helped train dogs of varying ages including those with challenging behaviour. I have developed a good understanding of canine behaviour in this time and I ensure every dog in my care receives the attention, patience, and love they deserve. I love all animals whether they are furry, feathered, or scaly, and I understand they all come with their own unique personalities and needs. I will ensure your pet feels safe and loved in my care. *I am also DBS cleared and have my Canine First Aid certificate, for extra peace of mind.* I work just three days a week for a couple of hours cleaning, which means your dog will never be left alone for long periods. Outside of that, pet care is my main focus, so I’m able to provide plenty of time, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I maintain a flexible schedule to work around your dog’s needs and ensure your dog feels comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have a large, fenced in garden, with a forest walk that lies out back. Perfect for little or large adventures. We have one other dog that has use of the garden but does not share the same living space. I can keep the dogs separate if needed or if your pup likes company I’m sure they will love our little girl.
“Archie stayed for just the day today. I have one very tired, but happy boy 🐶🥰. I would deffo recommend a stay with Alix for your puppy - she is very caring and well organised. (And you get plenty of photos 😊)”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and absolutely love having them around! 🐾 I currently work fully remotely from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention and supervision throughout the day. I have a huge garden with lots of space to explore and play, and I’m a big walker myself, so I’m always happy to have a four-legged companion join me on my walks. I also love photography, so there’s a very good chance you’ll receive some cute photos of your pup enjoying their little holiday with me! 📸🐶 I have plenty of experience with dogs of different breeds, personalities and backgrounds. I was involved with Seeing Eye/guide dogs for over 7 years and have also owned rescue dogs for more than 15 years, so I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs. I’m more than happy to follow whatever rules you have at home so that your dog’s routine stays consistent. Equally, if your pup is used to being on the sofa, sleeping on the bed or generally making themselves completely at home, that’s absolutely fine with me! I’m currently dog-free, which is actually one of the reasons I love dog sitting so much. I really miss having the company of dogs around and genuinely enjoy being able to give them a home-from-home while their owners are away. ❤️ I work fully remotely from home, so pet care fits really naturally into my everyday routine. My schedule is flexible, meaning I can easily accommodate regular toilet breaks, feeding times, walks, playtime and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m naturally an early riser and love walking, so morning and evening walks are easy to build around your dog’s usual routine. I also have a large garden for regular outdoor breaks, play and exploring throughout the day. I play sports on two evenings a week and football on Sundays, so I’m occasionally out for around 2–2.5 hours at a time. If your dog is happy and comfortable in that environment, they’re also very welcome to come along and watch from the sidelines! Otherwise, I’ll make sure they’ve been walked, settled and comfortable before I leave. As I’m home for the vast majority of the day, your dog will have lots of company and I’m very happy to adapt my routine around what they’re used to at home. 🐾 I have a large, fully fenced garden, although the fence at the back isn’t particularly high, so dogs who are keen jumpers will always be closely supervised while outside. I’m happy to crate dogs where this is part of their normal routine, as I’ve owned and cared for crate-trained dogs before. I’m also very comfortable caring for dogs who need a little extra support, whether that’s with toilet training, medication or anxiety. I’m patient and happy to follow your routines, boundaries and instructions to make sure your dog feels safe, settled and at home with me. 🐾
“Pablo had another lovely day with Gareth - he took him on some great walks and shared lots of pics. Gareth also could not have been more helpful where transport issues arose - I’m so grateful. Thank you!!”
About: I have had a family dog since 11 and have experience from puppy to adult. I also have 2 very fluffy cats, who love cuddles and I am very happy to meet their needy requirements! I absolutely love the outdoors and walking so would love for your doggy to come along with me too, or sit with them at home whilst I am working! The best colleagues have 4 legs! I am self-employed and love a change of scenery, so working alongside your pets will keep us both happy! I love to be around animals a lot more than people so I can't wait to sit for you and your pet! I will make sure your home is left just as you left it - making your return to your pet a pleasure as they will have had company to keep them happy but be thrilled to see you too!
About: Hello! My name is Aleksandra (or Sasha), and I’m a huge dog lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs. As a dog owner myself, I know how difficult it can be to find someone you truly trust to look after your beloved furry family member, so I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have about me or my experience. I have a 12-year-old dog whom I adopted from Japan over eight years ago, and I’ve also spent many years looking after other people’s dogs, whether hosting them in my home, doing drop-in visits, or taking them for walks. My dog has become a bit of a bossy and stubborn old lady, but she gets along well with other dogs, especially younger ones. I work as a scientist and have a flexible hybrid schedule, which means I can work from home several days a week and adjust my hours when needed. This allows me to check in on your dog, take them for walks during the day, or provide company while you’re away. I’ll always do my best to make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Drop me a message and I will be happy to chat! I have a hybrid schedule and work from home 2-3 days a week. My office days are usually Monday and Thursday, but can be adjusted if needed. My weekends are usually free, so I can easily help out with walks, drop-in visits, or dog sitting when needed. I live in a secure apartment building, so any dogs staying with me will be in a safe and supervised environment. I only take on a limited number of dogs at a time so that I can give each one plenty of attention and make sure they feel comfortable. I’m also available for house sitting, drop-in visits and walks within Saffron Walden, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. I have a 12-year-old dog who gets along well with most dogs, although she can be a little bossy sometimes. For that reason, I would prefer to arrange a first meeting in a neutral open space, such as a park area, before any stay in my home. I find that this helps dogs get to know each other more comfortably and makes the experience much smoother for everyone. I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos, and I’ll make sure your dog is treated with the same care and attention that I give my own.
“I’ve never met such loving sitters! And also in such a great and safe place. They kept us updated on the Rover Card and sent us lots of wonderful pictures. The house is beautiful and their little toy poodle Milo is also such a fantastic host as well! Thank you so much guys! 10/10! Noodle had an amazing time x 100% recommended”
About: Ever since I was little, I've always loved pets. I've spent many hours and days looking after our friends dogs and cats - including house sitting, walks, daycare and check-ins. I would love a dog of my own in the future once more settled, but in the meantime, I would love the opportunity to care for others dogs and cats. If interested, I'm a semi-professional cyclist (and part-time marketer). I'm currently off training (cycling) for a month or two, and will be coming back into training very slowly, so have a lot more free time. I'm working part-time at home most days, with the odd Wednesday working from the office in London, allowing me to move around the local area looking after your pet(s) or having your pet(s) come to stay. Relatively relaxed and free, but there may be a few days or weekends I won't be able to do. I have a very large downstairs space which is neat, tidy with very little clutter, with a great playing field (and crop fields) behind the houses where lots of dog owners walk their dogs.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have gained some great experience over the years. I’ve worked with trained search dogs, which taught me a lot about understanding different behaviours and building trust. I also volunteer at a local rehoming centre, helping care for dogs with all kinds of personalities. At home, I have two lively cocker spaniels who keep me on my toes and remind me how important it is to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I really enjoy making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well looked after I work part-time from home with a flexible shift pattern, so it’s easy for me to fit pet care around my schedule. I make sure any bookings get my full attention, and I love having animals as part of my daily routine. I offer drop-in visits to make sure pets are happy and well looked after in their own home. I’ll follow their normal routine — whether that’s feeding, topping up water, letting them out for a toilet break, or just giving them some company and attention. I always aim to keep things calm and reassuring, especially if a pet is shy or nervous. Every visit is tailored to what your pet needs to feel safe and settled while you’re away. I also offer dog walking and home boarding. I’m happy to give your dog a good walk, some company and plenty of fuss, or have them stay with me in a home-from-home environment while you’re away. 🐶

About: I have had dogs for a number rof years and was a puppy walker for the Prison Service. I am happy to walk your dog, sit with them or play ball with them. I mainly work from home so am quite flexible for walks and drop in throughout the day. I am also available at weekends and bank holidays. I will take care your dog calm and respectfully. I will be led by your guidance on what suits your pet best to ensure they have an enjoyable experience.
About: Hi, I'm Zy! (If you said my name right, it should rhyme with 'hi') I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I grew up with multiple dogs, including large and giant breeds, so I’m confident handling everything from energetic pups to calmer, more sensitive dogs. I’ve also regularly cared for dogs for friends and family—from small Maltipoos and Staffies to Spaniels and Retrievers—providing walks, daycare, and overnight stays. I’m comfortable adapting to different routines and personalities. My approach is calm, patient, and attentive. I focus on building trust, reading behaviour, and creating a safe, relaxed environment. Whether your dog needs long walks and playtime or slower strolls and quiet companionship, I’ll tailor their care to suit them (snuggles on the sofa are always welcome!) I don’t currently have any pets, which means your dog/s will have my full attention in a calm, one-on-one setting. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and will always keep you updated for peace of mind. I am currently working part-time which means I have free days to spend playing with your pets, taking them for walks, snuggles and generally having a great time together. I'm typically available midweek onwards for daycare, walks, and boarding, with my calendar being regularly updated. Currently, I am limiting to 1 pet (from one family) at a time (if you have multiple pets from the same family I am open to caring for them at the same time), meaning your pet/s will have my undivided attention. I have a fully fenced farmland garden that can be fully seen from the living space. Open plan kitchen/living room so your fur baby (whether the purr or bark) will have more than enough room to roam around and play. I have access to a play pen too should you feel your pet would prefer this/ be more suitable. I have spare to be able to easily set up a crate if your pet needs this too. For walks while boarding, I'm very closely located to quiet public trails/ footpaths/ fields to allow for calm, regular walks - perfect for shy or slightly unpredictable doggies. For dog walking - I'm physically fit, attend the gym regularly, and have experience in walking my families giant dog (a Caucasian mountain dog - very large, very strong). Duration of walks required is open for discussion to best suit your dog :)
About: I've been taking care of my family's cats since I was about 13 years old. I then rescued a senior cat who had cancer, had him for just over a year until he ultimately passed away from his cancer. I've also been around family dogs since I was little I'm full time employed but work from home most days. Can take dogs on up to 30 minute walks 2 to 3 times a day. Can board cats throughout the week and most weekends I have a fenced in garden. No animals or children in the house. Will not let pets outside without supervision. Litter box, cat bed and tree provided when boarding cats
About: Dogs have always been at the heart of my life and caring for them has never simply been something I do - it is who I am. For me, this is not just a service, it is a privilege. I understand that every dog is a cherished member of the family and I treat each one with the same love, patience, kindness and unwavering devotion that I gave to my own. For 13 wonderful years, I was blessed to share my life with my beautiful Cavapoo, Colby. He was my constant companion, my best friend and I will always feel incredibly honoured that he chose me every day. The bond we shared shaped the way I care for animals and reinforced my belief that every dog deserves to feel safe, understood, loved and completely at ease. Following Colby's passing, I found myself deeply missing the daily joy of giving that love and care to a dog. It is this, more than anything, that inspired me to begin this new chapter. My aim is not simply to offer dog boarding, walking and house sitting, but to provide a home-from-home experience where every dog receives genuine affection, individual attention and the highest standard of care, as though they were my own. My experience extends well beyond everyday care. During Colby's later years, he bravely lived with heart failure, requiring an extensive and carefully managed medication regime. I administered multiple medications with precision, consistency and dedication while closely monitoring his health, comfort and changing needs. This experience has given me invaluable confidence in caring for senior dogs, administering medication and supporting dogs with ongoing medical conditions, always with patience, compassion and meticulous attention to detail. When you dog is in my care, they will be treated as my own family - with warmth, gentleness and genuine affection. My promise is to provide not only a safe and reliable service, but a nurturing environment where you dog feels secure, loved and truly at home 🐶❤️ I provide full-time, dedicated care tailored entirely to your dog's individual needs and routine. Whether they enjoy long walks and playtime, gentle companionship, plenty of cuddles and love, or simply a quiet place to relax, my focus is always on ensuring they feel safe, happy and loved. I offer house sitting in your home, boarding, drop in and dog walking throughout the week, including weekends and I am committed to maintaining your dog's usual routine as closely as possible to provide comfort, consistency and complete peace of mind while you are away. Safety, trust and a calm, secure environment are at the very heart of my care. I have no other pets or children in the home, ensuring a peaceful and undisturbed setting for your dog. My property benefits from a walled, secure garden and I am fortunate to be situated in a beautiful village with a country park and woodland walks right on my doorstep, offering safe, enriching and varied outdoor experiences in nature.
About: I grew up with a dog in the family and enjoyed taking care and spending time with dogs ever since. I have experience looking after dogs with different personalities and needs, and I always treat them as my own. I also have a valid DBS certificate for extra peace of mind. I work from home so have some time to spend with pets. I can walk the dogs, play with them and feed them according to the schedule desired I live in a house and have a small garden where dogs can spend their time. Plenty of parks to take them for a walk around too
About: Hi I’m fleur, I’ve had dogs my whole life and always been dog mad! I currently own 2 dogs, but am living in Newcastle at university most of the year around so would love to have the opportunity to look after other dogs. I’ve house sitted dogs in the past, which I loved. I love going for walks/runs with dogs and playing with them. Even just cuddling and keeping them company. I have a lovely local walk around my house and a fenced garden. I have a pretty flexible timetable but would appreciate it if people could message me to ask if I’m free before booking, am happy to meet you before any service to have a chat! I am currently at university in Newcastle with lots of free time to look after any dogs! I’m dog mad and miss my dogs who are at home. I am 21 years old. I live in a flat with 2 girls who are all also obsessed with dogs, it’s a very cozy flat with a fenced outdoor area, I live in jesmond but am happy to venture around Newcastle!
About: I have been dog, cat, and house sitting since childhood! I have volunteered at SPCA and have always found or adopted my pets. I grew up with a golden retriever and several cats. My schedule is very flexible right now, as I recently relocated to bury st Edmund's. Hoping to make the most of my time by helping out others and getting to spend time with their furry family. I have spent many years caring for pets of friends and family in their homes. I've always felt that it's easier to keep them in their home where they are familiar and comfortable and I am the one who is in their space. They are already missing their parents (owners) no need to add more stress.
About: Hi I’m Evie, a caring, reliable and experienced pet sitter who loves all animals ! 🐶🐱🐹 I have a dog and a cat of my own and have had lots of different animals throughout my life. I also have previous pet-sitting experience, and my sister is a veterinary nurse, so I’ve grown up around animals and understand how important their care and wellbeing is. I’m happy to offer dog walking, home visits, pet sitting and overnight stays, and I’m always happy to work around your pet’s individual routine and needs. I’ll treat your pets as my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos while you’re away! ❤️🐾 I work 4 days a week, usually from 8am–6pm, but I’m very flexible around my working hours. I’m happy to visit before or after work, and I’m also available for overnight stays. i have 3 days off each week, so I can offer plenty of availability on those days for walks, visits and longer stays. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s routine and work out what suits you both best! I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable in their own home, so I always try to keep their usual routine as much as possible. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own, and I’ll take the time to build trust with your pets so they feel relaxed and happy while you’re away. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you know they’re safe and being well looked after
About: Ever since I was little, I've always loved pets. I've spent many hours and days looking after our friends dogs and cats - including house sitting, walks, daycare and check-ins. I would love a dog of my own in the future once more settled, but in the meantime, I would love the opportunity to care for others dogs and cats. If interested, I'm a semi-professional cyclist (and part-time marketer). I'm currently off training (cycling) for a month or two, and will be coming back into training very slowly, so have a lot more free time. I'm working part-time at home most days, with the odd Wednesday working from the office in London, allowing me to move around the local area looking after your pet(s) or having your pet(s) come to stay. Relatively relaxed and free, but there may be a few days or weekends I won't be able to do. I have a very large downstairs space which is neat, tidy with very little clutter, with a great playing field (and crop fields) behind the houses where lots of dog owners walk their dogs.
About: I have years of experience looking after pets of friends, my own, and through word of mouth I have house sat for many others. I have looked after and helped train dogs of varying ages including those with challenging behaviour. I have developed a good understanding of canine behaviour in this time and I ensure every dog in my care receives the attention, patience, and love they deserve. I love all animals whether they are furry, feathered, or scaly, and I understand they all come with their own unique personalities and needs. I will ensure your pet feels safe and loved in my care. *I am also DBS cleared and have my Canine First Aid certificate, for extra peace of mind.* I work just three days a week for a couple of hours cleaning, which means your dog will never be left alone for long periods. Outside of that, pet care is my main focus, so I’m able to provide plenty of time, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I maintain a flexible schedule to work around your dog’s needs and ensure your dog feels comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have a large, fenced in garden, with a forest walk that lies out back. Perfect for little or large adventures. We have one other dog that has use of the garden but does not share the same living space. I can keep the dogs separate if needed or if your pup likes company I’m sure they will love our little girl.
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: 20 years of experience raising and caring for animals at home (cocker spaniel, dachshund, border-collie, maine-coone) Deeply empathetic, considerate and gentle, I'm happy to accommodate any special care requests you require. I look forward to hearing from you! Currently working part-time from home (design/printmaker), so I have plenty of moments during my day for connection and care. I have 1 daughter, so will be on school runs 8–8.15AM & 3.30–4PM, which your dogs are welcome to join me for (sometimes I run the route, if your dogs are athletic –aprx 3km). We have 2 resident mini sausage dogs, but prefer to keep them in their own part of the house if other dogs are much larger. I have a large, fenced garden for your friend to explore and run about in! The property is situated close to several lovely walking trails in fields and forests.
About: Calm, patient, and reliable. Experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and nervous dogs, providing loving, attentive care while maintaining their routine and building trust for all. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule carefully so every visit gets plenty of time, attention, play, feeding, and lots of affection without being rushed. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my priority. I follow your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if required), and plenty of affection. I keep homes tidy and secure, provide regular updates with photos, and make sure your pet feels relaxed, loved, and well cared for while you're away.
About: I have loved dogs ever since I can remember and have grown up taking care of them, including a diverse range of breeds. I have been a dog walker and pet sitter for neighbours in the past. I adore dogs and aim to give them the best experience as possible. I will care for them as if they are my own, giving them all the cuddles and walks a dog could dream of. I’m currently at home from university and so I have plenty of free time to care for your dog. I am available to walk your dog any days of the week and will give them plenty of cuddles and treats (only if their mom or dad allows it ofc!). There is also a large nature reserve two minutes away from which is the perfect place for your dog to sniff to their hearts content. I have a fenced garden for your dog to roam around in as well as a dog of my own to keep them company. His name is Louie (Lou Lou) — the most lovable dog you will meet. He is incredible sociable with other dogs but would also respects their space. He is only a young cockapoo! Our days are spent with lots of cuddles and belly rubs.
About: I have over 8 years experience of providing pet services for family, friends and clients. I always treat your pet as if it’s my own and I always cater for your pets needs. I am extremely flexible so drop me a message if you have a specific request! I work remotely, so I am available after work in the week and then available anytime on the weekend. I have my own horse, so if you’re needing help with horses or other animals too, please reach out :) I always treat your pet as if they are my own and cater for all your pets needs, including any medication and their temperament and routines. I am extremely flexible and work around both you and your pet, so please message me and I’m sure I can help!
“Thanks Kirsten, that was a walk and a half! They are both happy and don’t seem to be upset by being left so this is a great solution to occasional dog sitting. The report, map and photos were very reassuring.”
About: I've grew up raising my best friend Jed a chocolate labrador and I'm now lucky enough to own and look after two funny and sweet british shorthair cats.

They are part of my family and my family is my world, I feed my family before myself and ensure their needs are met before my own! Always having access to water, a safe space they feel comfortable and somewhere they can go if they need to de-stress. Their needs are crucial and important!

“Rosy & Rich were absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process and very communicative. They looked after our dog Lola during our wedding and it was a great relief to know she was being looked after so well. They are clearly dog lovers and very adept and confident in looking after dogs”
“Lisa was absolutely brilliant with our border terrier, Dilly. Dilly and I met up with Lisa for a 'get to know you' walk and it was clear that Dilly was in really safe hands. Lisa kept us updated with photos of Dilly whilst we were away which really allowed us to relax, knowing someone was making as much fuss of our little girl as we would be. Can't recommend enough. Thanks again Lisa!!”
“Steven was an absolute pleasure to deal with. I recieved lots of photos and regular updates. He also went above and beyond to make sure Indy felt at home and had a wonderful stay, with lots of walks and pampering! I would highly recommend and will certainly be rebooking with Steven again.”
“Chloe provided great care to our dog while we were away on holiday. Chloe provided daily photos and updates which were always well received. I would highly recommend Chloe for your dog boarding needs!”
“Jack had such a lovely holiday with Lauren, we were worried he wouldn't want to come home! Lauren kept us up to date with video of him having lots of fun with other dogs and looking quite at home and relaxed in Lauren's home. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m a self-employed dog lover who works from home Monday–Friday, so I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, walks and, of course, cuddles! I live in a spacious two-bedroom flat with my own dog, Vinny. While we don’t have a private garden, we do have a communal outdoor space for toilet breaks, and I make sure Vinny gets two 45-minute walks every day. We’re lucky to have plenty of lovely options nearby, from open fields and woodland to peaceful walks through the village. At home, life is nice and relaxed. Vinny is usually snoozing on the sofa, or happily working away at a frozen Kong or LickiMat. I’m happy to keep your dog’s usual routine as much as possible, whether they’re full of energy and love a good walk or are more of a professional sofa-snoozer! I’ve always loved animals and have had pets throughout my life, including dogs, rabbits and ducks. We’d love to have a second dog of our own one day, but in the meantime I’d love to welcome some local four-legged friends into our home and give them a safe, comfortable and loving place to stay. Your dog will be treated like one of the family, with plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I’d love to meet you and your pup and see if we’re a good match!

About: We have a large fenced garden and a cosy home and your dogs will be treated as part of our family during their stay. I understand the importance of routine, especially when dogs are in a new environment, and will ensure they are cared for exactly as you request with plenty of photo updates throughout the stay. I totally understand the desire for your dogs to feel loved and cared for when you are away - rest assured they will be doted on! We have 2 friendly female resident dogs who love having doggy mates, Bonnie (7 yr old cockapoo) and Inka (3 yr old Frenchie), so your dog will have some canine company. I'm currently on maternity leave and have plenty of time to be with your pup and give them lots of attention, cuddles and exercise. My husband works from home 100% of the time, so there will always be company for your dog. I have a secure, large fenced garden with plenty of grass and space for playing. It is clean and hazard free, and easily accessible from the kitchen.
“Coco loves spending time with Rocio and his boarding pals and its become a real home from home- Rocio’s care and attention really puts our minds at rest when we are away from him and highly recommend!”
“Tahiana was amazing with our puppy! She is a kind lady and she definitely played a lot with my dog as it takes a lot to wear her out and she was tired when we collected her 😄 We will definitely be using her again. Would definitely recommend for future dog sits!”
About: Hello! My name is Aleksandra (or Sasha), and I’m a huge dog lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs. As a dog owner myself, I know how difficult it can be to find someone you truly trust to look after your beloved furry family member, so I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have about me or my experience. I have a 12-year-old dog whom I adopted from Japan over eight years ago, and I’ve also spent many years looking after other people’s dogs, whether hosting them in my home, doing drop-in visits, or taking them for walks. My dog has become a bit of a bossy and stubborn old lady, but she gets along well with other dogs, especially younger ones. I work as a scientist and have a flexible hybrid schedule, which means I can work from home several days a week and adjust my hours when needed. This allows me to check in on your dog, take them for walks during the day, or provide company while you’re away. I’ll always do my best to make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Drop me a message and I will be happy to chat! I have a hybrid schedule and work from home 2-3 days a week. My office days are usually Monday and Thursday, but can be adjusted if needed. My weekends are usually free, so I can easily help out with walks, drop-in visits, or dog sitting when needed. I live in a secure apartment building, so any dogs staying with me will be in a safe and supervised environment. I only take on a limited number of dogs at a time so that I can give each one plenty of attention and make sure they feel comfortable. I’m also available for house sitting, drop-in visits and walks within Saffron Walden, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. I have a 12-year-old dog who gets along well with most dogs, although she can be a little bossy sometimes. For that reason, I would prefer to arrange a first meeting in a neutral open space, such as a park area, before any stay in my home. I find that this helps dogs get to know each other more comfortably and makes the experience much smoother for everyone. I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos, and I’ll make sure your dog is treated with the same care and attention that I give my own.
“First time ever leaving our 2 little dogs (normally stay with family ) from the first day of meeting Anne and Chris I felt totally comfortable and at ease they cared and loved our dogs just as if they were their own one of my dogs needs daily eye are and medication they had no problem at all doing this Anne sent me photos and video updates throughout our holiday it made my holiday as I didn’t have to worry at all my dogs were being cared and loved by wonderful people ! I will 100% use Anne and Chris again I would highly recommend them x Thankyou once again Anne and Chris Xxx Rosie and Ted say thankyou too 🐶🐶”
“I think Coco has found his new second home. He's really taken to Mahmet and think it might be mutual 😊. A loving warm home awaits your fur baby.....though only if Coco isn't there!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and absolutely love having them around! 🐾 I currently work fully remotely from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention and supervision throughout the day. I have a huge garden with lots of space to explore and play, and I’m a big walker myself, so I’m always happy to have a four-legged companion join me on my walks. I also love photography, so there’s a very good chance you’ll receive some cute photos of your pup enjoying their little holiday with me! 📸🐶 I have plenty of experience with dogs of different breeds, personalities and backgrounds. I was involved with Seeing Eye/guide dogs for over 7 years and have also owned rescue dogs for more than 15 years, so I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs. I’m more than happy to follow whatever rules you have at home so that your dog’s routine stays consistent. Equally, if your pup is used to being on the sofa, sleeping on the bed or generally making themselves completely at home, that’s absolutely fine with me! I’m currently dog-free, which is actually one of the reasons I love dog sitting so much. I really miss having the company of dogs around and genuinely enjoy being able to give them a home-from-home while their owners are away. ❤️ I work fully remotely from home, so pet care fits really naturally into my everyday routine. My schedule is flexible, meaning I can easily accommodate regular toilet breaks, feeding times, walks, playtime and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m naturally an early riser and love walking, so morning and evening walks are easy to build around your dog’s usual routine. I also have a large garden for regular outdoor breaks, play and exploring throughout the day. I play sports on two evenings a week and football on Sundays, so I’m occasionally out for around 2–2.5 hours at a time. If your dog is happy and comfortable in that environment, they’re also very welcome to come along and watch from the sidelines! Otherwise, I’ll make sure they’ve been walked, settled and comfortable before I leave. As I’m home for the vast majority of the day, your dog will have lots of company and I’m very happy to adapt my routine around what they’re used to at home. 🐾 I have a large, fully fenced garden, although the fence at the back isn’t particularly high, so dogs who are keen jumpers will always be closely supervised while outside. I’m happy to crate dogs where this is part of their normal routine, as I’ve owned and cared for crate-trained dogs before. I’m also very comfortable caring for dogs who need a little extra support, whether that’s with toilet training, medication or anxiety. I’m patient and happy to follow your routines, boundaries and instructions to make sure your dog feels safe, settled and at home with me. 🐾
“This is the third time we have used Simon. We left Rumble for a longer holiday this time. We received regular photo updates and Rumble was clearly very happy and relaxed. Both drop off and pick up were very well organised and professional. Rumble is now settled back home with no signs that he’s been away, Simon gave him a real home from home. Brilliant x”
“Bibiana was fantastic. Beanie stayed with her for 3 days and he seems to have loved it. My friend picked him up at the end of his stay and he was whining after he left. I think he made some good friends while he was there. Highly recommend Bibiana as your next dog sitter.”
“May is absolutely amazing! She is a true animal lover and an incredibly trustworthy dog sitter. We are so happy we found her,she is an absolute diamond! She looked after our dog, Kuma, for five days while we were on holiday, and we couldn't have asked for better care. Kuma absolutely loves her, and it was clear she treated him as if he were her own dog. May went above and beyond anything we expected. She brushed him every day, cleaned his teeth, washed him with suitable products, and even spoiled him with delicious treats. Most importantly, she kept us updated throughout our trip with regular messages and photos, giving us complete peace of mind. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we couldn't be more grateful. We highly recommend May to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and dedicated dog sitter. Thank you so much, May!”
