“Simon and family provided excellent care for our 6-month old puppy whilst we went away on holiday. They were very friendly and sent us lots of lovely photos which was very reassuring. I would recommend their services 😊”
“Kezia looked after our Weimeraner, Salto, and we can't recommend her enough. This was Salto's first time away and as he struggles the separation anxiety, we weren't sure how he would cope. Well we had no need to worry, Salto settled incredibly quickly and had a fantastic time, he has come home super happy and relaxed, which is better than any review I can give. Kezia kept us updated the whole weekend with plenty of photos, which we really appreciated and nothing was too much to ask. I've already started looking at more weekends away and won't hesitate to use Kezia again. Thank you! ✨”
About: Hi, I’m Maria! 🐾 I am home full-time with my dog Teddy by my side. We love canine company and would be delighted to welcome your furry friend into our home. I'm available for full day care, and possibly overnight stays. Our home is calm and child-free, making it an ideal environment for dogs who need a peaceful space. Teddy is a small dog who is great with other dogs and enjoys having playmates to share his day with. We have a secure garden where they can play safely. Since I'm here around the clock, your dog will receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout their stay -they'll never be left alone for long periods. I’m at home all day. My little dog is walked by 10am most mornings and then has the use of the garden for the rest of the day. In the nicer weather he may get more walks!! I have a secure garden for dogs to enjoy, including a safely fenced-off pond area so they can explore while staying protected. Safety is always my priority.
“Annie welcomed Cora from 1st minute until collected the next day. Lots of updates and lovely photos throughout the day made me feel calm that she was in safe hands and meticulously cared for. Everything went seamlessly, and would not hesitate to book again. Thank you Annie”

“Such a wonderful second home for our dog to stay when we went away with lots of space for him. Sarah is a great dog sitter and would highly recommend. The communication from Sarah was perfect.”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life quite literally, my first present as a newborn straight out of hospital was a gorgeous black ball of fur aka Tyson a German shepherd puppy and from that day on we were inseparable…. Needless to say now gsd’s are my favorite breed and will always be my favorite butttt and that’s a very big but all dogs of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart. I get on with dogs better then I do humans forming special bonds and an instant attachment to any dog I lay eyes on. I can’t go anywhere without stopping whoever has a dog and asking them if I can make a fuss of them so I thought I would put this love or obsession whatever you like to call it to good use and help others and welcome your dogs into my home where they will be loved like my own and part of our pack… food bowls washed throughly after every use and water bowls washed every time it’s refilled. Long walks every day or even 2 times a day and no I’m not talking a hour at a time I’m talking 3-4 hours I believe dogs should be outside exploring not inside all day… mental stimulation is a must… I’m not saying I’m perfect I’m just saying I know what I’m doing 🥰🥰 I am currently a stay at home mum who is looking for an extra income to contribute more to my household and my family? So I have availability pretty much all day every day from 10 AM up until 2 o’clock I am free and from 4:30 till whenever you need I am free. I will have my children with me if you are happy with that I have a baby and a toddler that don’t go to school yet if it’s at the weekend, then I will be Child free. This does not affect my ability to do my job as I have pets myself and I look after them with my children. If your dogs are other dog friendly, I’m happy for your dogs to join us, if not that’s ok too I can take them separately. I have two dogs myself who are more than happy to keep your dogs company. I can crate your dog for safety, If it is needed I have a garden and children that would love to play with your dogs if your dogs are at my home or you are happy for my children to play with your dogs then my toddler is more than happy to if my other two are at school. I have plenty of fans in my house for this hot weather and they are on all the time. If your dog is at my home, there is freshwater everywhere in my home. I have no rules in my house for dogs, being toilet trained is preferred but if your dog is old incontinent or still a puppy, it is absolutely fine. I have hardwood floors and dogs have accidents happen. It’s easily cleaned up. Your dog will be more than at home here they’ll be allowed up on the sofas in our garden.
“Sonny & Luna our sproker spaniels had a lovely 1 night stay with William and his wife. From arrival Sonny & Luna were able to go searching and sniffing freely in the large garden and house. Sonny quickly found the toy box and played one of his favourite games of emptying it one toy at a time and hiding them around the garden. They were taken on walks and we had videos and photos sent to us regularly over the 24 hours. Thank you William, I would definately recommend and confidently use you again to care for my spaniels”
About: I've been caring for friends and families dogs for as long as I can remember and have since owned my own dog for 6 years now! I have also previously worked as a community carer which involved lots of pet care to all types of animals that clients owned! I absolutely love the outdoors and walking to new places in the countryside surrounding, and combining that with looking after a dog is the perfect mix! I've only just graduated university so whilst working part-time hours, I'd love to fill my spare time getting to hang out with pups! I regularly go out walking both alone, with friends and with my own dog too. I have a fully fenced garden and a calm, friendly dog living home who gets on with anyone and anything (apart from the pigeons that live in our garden tree!). We allow him to go everywhere in the house and leave the doors to the garden open at all times for easy access whenever he wants!
“I left a domino for the first time he had been left outside of family this weekend and it was a really positive experience for both of us. Domino had a great time and was even a bit reluctant to leave his new friends. I would not hesitate to use Martin again or recommend him to others.he obviously adores dogs and has good knowledge in how to care for them.”
“Plato loves staying with Sarah and Christian, he jumped out of the car to see them as soon as we arrived! They always look after him really well and include him in their family life. We appreciate the regular updates and photos during his time with them.”
“This was our second time boarding Rory with Lloyd, this time for a longer stay and again, had the best experience! Lloyd is so communicative and seeing photos of Rory while I was away was so comforting and I looked forward to them everyday. She got lots of exercise, time outside, and got along with Hudson seemingly so well. Again, a great experience, thank you Lloyd and Hudson!”
“Shaun was a fantastic dog sitter. My dog was extremely well taken care of and I could tell that he missed their family once we got home. I will definitely rebook with Shaun in the future and highly recommend this dog sitter.”
“What a lovely stay for our Labrador! Gitana and family are so kind and welcoming. We received plenty of photos of our dog enjoying lovely walks and adventures. We hope they are available next time we need to travel.”
“Monica looked after Milo for 2 weeks while we were on holiday. It was the first time we had left him, so we were a little worried in case he didn't settle. We need not have worried, as Monica sent us daily updates with photos & videos. It was easy to see the loving care and all the attention they gave Milo. He was his usual cheeky self with Monica and up to his usual tricks. We cannot praise you highly enough. Milo certainly became part of your family for 2 weeks & i know you were sad to see him go. Thank You so much, Pete, Hayley, and of course, MIlo x”

“Jen was absolutely incredible, and I genuinely couldn’t have wished for a better person to look after my cat, Boo. From day one, she sent regular updates with the loveliest messages and lots of gorgeous photos of Boo playing, relaxing, and looking completely happy and content. Those updates gave me so much peace of mind and made being away so much easier. Jen spent time playing with her, making sure she was comfortable, and treated her as if she were her own. Seeing how relaxed and happy Boo was excellent. Jen truly went above and beyond in every way, and I can’t thank her enough for taking such wonderful care of Boo. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is priceless. I honestly won’t be booking with anyone else from now on. Thank you again! Xxx”
“This was the second time Grace has looked after my cats. As before, she was efficient and friendly. Even my shy cat Arthur put in an appearance and she sent me photographic evidence to prove it. 😸”
“Jenni is amazing with our two little furry friends, we love leaving them with her. She sends lovely updates and pictures and videos. This time was especially wonderful as Peggy our very shy little cat came in to see Jenni a lot more. Highly recommend.”
“Jane was really good and great with our dogs. She left plenty of information and photos during the check-ins. Made sure she played with them and sat with them too. Very happy would definitely recommend her. Thanks Jane!”
“Skye did an overnight cat sit with our cat Lilith for one night. Skye was communicative, sent photo updates and followed all instructions very well. I would recommend Skye for catsitting and would definitely rebook again. Thank you Skye!”
“Charlotte was brilliant and so wonderful with Rusty, it was the first time we have left him and had someone come in to see him and let him out. Even though he was a little nervous Charlotte communicated with me straight away and encouraged him gently out into the garden for a wee and a play. Charlotte communicated with me the whole time she was with Rusty and really reassured me that he was okay! Thank you for being so lovely and brilliant with Rusty”

“Benji had an absolutely amazing time with Maria and her little dog. He came home very happy and tired. Maria was lovely and very caring. I would highly recommend Maria to anyone wanting a doggie minder!”
“It was obvious Miguel had an amazing time with Becky from the way he has been so chill coming home but also the way he was leaning against her and wanting a fuss when we were leaving! Becky was excellent at communicating on Miguel and we felt totally at ease to leave him to have a doggy daycare. Thanks so much again Becky and we will all look forward to seeing you again 🥰”

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with family dogs and was lucky enough to own a lovely Spaniel myself, so I understand just how much our pets mean to us. I also have spent eight years working alongside working dogs in the Civil Service, which gave me great experience around dogs with different personalities, needs, and routines. Above all, I genuinely love animals and enjoy spending time with them. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply having company throughout the day, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday to Friday and have the flexibility of working from home on certain days. However, when I agree to look after your dog, I will ensure that I am not working so that I can give them the time, attention, and care they deserve. I enjoy being active and love going on long walks, so your dog will have plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor adventures. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced garden where dogs can safely enjoy time outdoors, and I live just a 5-minute walk from a large open playing field, perfect for walks, exercise, and playtime. I take great pride in caring not only for dogs but also in maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming home environment.
“Kezia looked after my 14 week old cockapoo puppy today. It was a big step to leave him for the first time, but Kezia and her partner were really lovely, helpful and accommodating from the initial 'meet & greet' a few weeks ago though to the drop off and collection today. Kezia provided pics and updates during the booking which reassured me that Ben was having a great time. I intend to use Kezia again, I have no hesitation in recommending her to others. She was simply brilliant. Thank you so much! Clive”
“We can’t recommend Amy highly enough. She looked after our dog, Vixen, while we were away for a family funeral, and her care and warmth made all the difference. Vixen can be a little anxious, but she quickly settled in—thanks in part to Amy’s lovely dog, who was twice her size but totally gentle and got on brilliantly with her. When we returned, Vixen seemed genuinely happy and relaxed, which speaks volumes. It was clear Amy truly loves animals—she had such a calm, kind presence and treated Vixen as if she were one of her own. We’re so grateful to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Amy!”

“Maya spent a few days at France’s home, and she was so well cared for. Maya looked comfortable and settled in quickly. Frances made sure she had attention throughout the day, and it was lovely to receive little updates and photos so we knew how she was getting on.

About: I’m a caring and responsible dog lover with hands-on experience looking after dogs. I have my own 3-year-old Cavapoo called Archie, so I have plenty of experience with day-to-day care, walks, feeding, playtime and training. I’ve also helped look after friends’ dogs, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines and needs. I understand how important it is to know your dog is happy, safe and well cared for while you’re away, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and attention I give Archie. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility throughout the day to give pets attention, walks, playtime and company. I can care for dogs at my home or stay at the owner’s home, depending on what works best. If I’m staying at the owner’s home, Archie would need to come with me as he is my own dog and is very friendly. I always put a pet’s safety and wellbeing first. I have a completely fenced and secure garden where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. Archie is friendly and is used to roaming freely around the house, but I also have a stair gate and a crate available if either dog needs some extra space, separation or a quiet place to settle. When caring for a pet in their own home, I would follow their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable and secure in familiar surroundings. I’m respectful of people’s homes and understand how important it is to build trust with both the owner and their pet.
About: Life long dog owner. Very comfortable with both Small and large dogs. Countryside environment with exercise paddock as well as walking. Mature dog experience and experience with simple medication. I currently have no dog right now so can provide single dog care for a dog that does not wish to compete for company! I like to keep numbers small on purpose. Good fit for friendly dogs that enjoy outside space, dogs from the same household, dogs happy to walk on lead or recall if in paddock. Good for fit bouncy dogs as well as older placid friends. I prefer to meet dogs before their first stay and ask owners to provide food and any medication. Happy if you wish to provide a favourite bed for overnight dogs. I work to my own flexible schedule so can build it around dogs needs rather than dogs needing to fit around me. Despite always be a dog family we currently have no family dog so I am very flexible. I live in a country location with fenced areas to exercise in. I walk at least 3 miles a day even with no dog so there is plenty of opportunity for short or long country walks depending on needs, age, size, type.
“Mark provided an outstanding level of care for Mabel. We had a meet a greet prior to her first booking to familiarise her with Mark and his home during which we were able to talk through Mabel’s needs and she can be anxious. Mark has a clear understanding of dogs and it was remarkable to she how Mabel responded to Mark so quickly - he has special doggy powers! Could not recommend more highly - a absolute gem to have found”
“Obi had a fantastic time at Gareth’s, he didn’t want to go home! We got updates over the course of the day, and Gareth was very flexible on drop off and pick up times. We will definitely have him look after Obi again.”

I soon aspire to become part time to set up my own dog walking business 🐾 I have a working cocker spaniel of my own who I love taking for walks and having training sessions with him. We are currently training a bit of ‘hunting’ together. He is able to respond to a recall whistle, a stop whistle, heel and hunt for yummy treats. Have previously had cats in the family and currently have two guinea pigs of my own!
“Jane B. has been walking my Chocolate Brown Labrador puppy, Willow (10 months old), for a few weeks now, and it has been a huge help. Knowing that while I’m at work, Willow is being visited and walked around the neighbourhood by a friendly, familiar face gives me great peace of mind. From their very first introduction, Jane and Willow bonded well, and Jane has been wonderful in offering useful tips and advice along the way. Jane is a complete professional and I trust her 100% with Willow. It’s already clear that Willow looks forward to her walks with Jane, and is benefitting from them, which makes for an enjoyable experience for both of them.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my home my entire life and have always been actively involved in their daily care. Growing up with dogs taught me not just how to love them, but how to understand their needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful or prefers quiet cuddles, I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I treat every dog like part of the family. I work full-time, but my hours are slightly flexible and depending on location I am able to leave at lunch for a drop-in, my weekends are also very flexible. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I understand that pets feel safest when their schedule stays familiar, so I carefully follow feeding times and any specific care guidelines provided.
“Lily was absolutely amazing! She was able to accommodate us at short notice and took Scarlet for a lovely walk. Scarlet loved it and took to Lily very quickly and easily. Thank you so much!”
About: I have taken care of friend’s dogs for years and had the joy of getting my own last year. I’ve also tried to be helpful to local organisations when I can. I’m currently working self employed so I’m happy to discuss days. Plus free all day on Mondays and Tuesdays. Looking forward to working with owners on a schedule that works best for us both. I have a fenced yard for my dog Eko at home and a big enough garden for her to run around in. I won’t be taking dog’s back to my house but wanted to let you know the situation there.
About: Hi! I'm Lydia. I love all dogs, and have years of experience looking after dogs as a veterinary care assistant, which means I am also comfortable with dogs of all ages from puppy to senior, and with administering medications. I am also trained in pet first-aid which means your dog will be in safe hands. I'm currently working from home most days and would love a dog walk or visit to break up the day! I have really flexible availability and can accept same-day bookings, just reach out :) I have years of experience walking dogs of all activity levels and ages. While walking, I do not let dogs off the lead and keep them in my sight at all times.
About: I’ve grown up around a wide variety of animals, including horses, donkeys, ducks, chickens, geese, dogs, cats, gerbils and hamsters. I’ve also personally cared for more unusual pets, including a gecko, jumping spider and stick insects, giving me experience with animals of many different species and care requirements. Alongside my personal experience, I’ve cared for dogs through walking, pet sitting, and grooming. I’ve volunteered caring for dogs in a shelter abroad, and worked in a mobile zoo with a wide range of animals. These experiences have helped me become confident around different breeds, species and temperaments, and I always adapt my approach to each animal’s individual needs and body language. I hold Level 2 qualifications in Animal Nursing, Animal Management and Dog Grooming, as well as a Level 3 qualification in Dog Grooming. Luna & Sage Pet Care is now my full-time focus, allowing me to provide reliable, personalised care for pets and other animals. I’m also happy to discuss caring for additional pets in your home alongside your Rover booking, so please feel free to message me about your individual needs Luna & Sage Pet Care is my full time focus, allowing me to dedicate my time to providing reliable and personalised care for every pet. I offer a range of services and love getting to know each animal and their individual needs. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, with lots of love and attention. I’m mindful of routines, dietary requirements, preferences and behaviour, and I take the time to build trust with each animal so they feel comfortable and safe. I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, from energetic dogs and nervous pets to cats, small animals such as gerbils and hamsters, reptiles, and larger animals including horses and donkeys. I understand that every animal has their own unique personality, so I adapt my approach based on their individual needs. I also love photography, so you’ll receive plenty of updates and photos while your pet is in my care, giving you peace of mind and a little window into what they’ve been getting up to.

About: Since the age of 13 I have looked after friends and families pets from cats, dogs, horses, rabbits and guinea pigs. Between the ages of 18-21 I worked off recommendations for house sits and now that I work fully remote I have the opportunity to be available throughout the day. I can provide many recommendations for peace of mind for overnight house sits, drop ins and walks 🐶 Im currently self employed as a social media manager and photographer so I have lots of time spent at my laptop at home. This way I can be entirely flexible around you and your beloved pets needs! In my own home I currently have no pets of my own so they will be my sole focus, with a fenced in garden. In your own home I will stay in constant communication with you and run through everything so we are both happy we will be keeping your family member safe
About: I've have had dogs in my life for more than 20 years. Growing up, I had four family dogs, including a rescue dog from Dogs Trust and a retired ex-racing Greyhound. Caring for dogs with different personalities, backgrounds and needs gave me a great understanding of how important patience, routine and trust are in helping dogs feel happy and secure. Alongside my love of dogs, I've always been passionate about horses. I owned and competed three horses of my own before going on to work professionally on a busy equestrian yard. This experience taught me responsibility, attention to detail and the importance of providing the highest standard of care for animals. Today, I have two Cockapoos who are at the centre of my world. Life revolves around them, from daily countryside walks and adventures to dog-friendly holidays where they join us for long walks and exploring new places. They are very much part of the family and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. One of my Cockapoos is reactive, which has given me extensive hands-on experience working with dogs who need a little extra understanding and support. I've worked closely with a number of professional dog trainers and have spent a lot of time learning about canine behaviour, body language and positive training methods. This is something I'm particularly passionate about and continue to learn more about every day. I will always treat your dog as if they were my own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, care, exercise and affection while they're with me. As a full-time dog mum to my two Cockapoos and with a full-time job, I currently offer weekend walks and drop-in visits. This allows me to provide your dog with my full attention and care. I hope to expand my availability to weekdays in the future. Your dog's safety, happiness and wellbeing will always be my top priority. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else's care. I will always take the time to get to know your dog's individual needs, routine and personality to ensure they feel as relaxed and happy as possible. I have experience with dogs of different ages, breeds and temperaments, including rescue dogs and reactive dogs. Having worked closely with professional trainers to support my own reactive Cockapoo, I understand the importance of reading canine body language, maintaining safe distances when needed and ensuring every walk is tailored to the individual dog. I will always follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have complete peace of mind while your dog is in my care. My aim is to provide a safe, calm and caring experience where your dog feels comfortable, secure and loved.
About: I've been caring for friends and families dogs for as long as I can remember and have since owned my own dog for 6 years now! I have also previously worked as a community carer which involved lots of pet care to all types of animals that clients owned! I absolutely love the outdoors and walking to new places in the countryside surrounding, and combining that with looking after a dog is the perfect mix! I've only just graduated university so whilst working part-time hours, I'd love to fill my spare time getting to hang out with pups! I regularly go out walking both alone, with friends and with my own dog too. I have a fully fenced garden and a calm, friendly dog living home who gets on with anyone and anything (apart from the pigeons that live in our garden tree!). We allow him to go everywhere in the house and leave the doors to the garden open at all times for easy access whenever he wants!
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.
“Charlotte was brilliant with Rusty again, great communication and fab pictures! He always looks like he’s having a great time and Charlotte keeps me up to date and reassured that he is okay whenever she is with him. Thank you!”
“Jasmine is reliable, helpful and importantly attentive to my pooches needs. William is well looked after on his walks. Having a walker is a new thing for us and I could not recommend anyone more. Thanks Jasmine!”
About: Most recently l worked for a dog sitting company and had lots of different sizes and abilities of pooches, staying with me. I am no longer able to offer boarding at my home, however l have recently started housesitting in the pets own Home, l am green fingered so can look after your plants and garden too. I want you to have peace of mind while you are away, l am very house proud and so will take good care of your home and your furry friend. I think it’s really important for you to return from your break to find your furry pals with the same behaviours and routines as you left. And they’ll have plenty of walks and cuddles whilst with me. I love to run and keep fit so if you’re pooch is able that can come too. I am currently house sitting at the moment for 3 characterful cats. I’m currently taking a break from the 9-5 so l can offer your pet all my attention, so keeping their normal schedule and plenty of belly rubs included I will care for your pets exactly how you do, hate to say it but they won’t even notice you’ve gone … that is until you return!
About: Hi, I’m Angela, I’m 34 years old and live in Monks Eleigh. Over the last 3 years I have developed this new found love of mine into RIO’s RETREAT SUFFOLK which I run alongside Rover. If you would like details of Rio’s retreat Suffolk please let me know or check out our website. I am fully licensed & insured. I have updated my profile to enable a better insight into what I do & who I am. I have recently left the police having worked as a police officer in London. I have gone back into health care to enable a better work life balance and to do what I love… be with animals. I grew up on a small holding with a range of livestock & cattle. I was lucky enough to grow up with and around gun dogs who I just adore; the crazier the better 😂. WHY IM DOING THIS I started rover to fill a void, I left an abusive marriage which resulted in my horse & dog being given away. I missed animals & being outside so I started rover hoping to meet a few pups. I have been extremely lucky & grateful to meet some amazing families and their lovely fluffy friends. I never expected to be as busy as I have been and I couldn’t ask for kinder people to welcome me into their homes. Whilst looking after your animals I only ever have one animal boarding at a time. I also only do solo dog walks. I’m not interested in over filling my home or putting dogs at risk by walking 10 at a time just to make money. Your animal is purely my priority and has all my time and attention. I’m more than happy to take your pets out for long walks, drive to parks, vet checks ect. No preferences or needs are too big or too small, Even just throw a ball and have lots of cuddles. I had a cocker spaniel and as long as he had his ball and his mum that’s all he needed :) MY PETS I am very lucky to have the sweetest & kindest Labrador who was kindly rehomed to me through rover. She loves people & dogs more then anything but if your dog boards with us we have arrangements in place if your dog cannot be kept with other dogs. I also have rescue cats & Guinea pigs who are out the way of staying pets. SO WHY AM I DOING THIS? I love long walks, muddy paws and slobbery kisses more than anyone could imagine. I adore animals, I am a very patient and sensible person, so whatever your pet or their personality, we will get along just fine. I’m happy for regular updates and perfectionist owners who want to leave me lists (please tell me I’m not the only one who does this haha) Please feel free to ask me any questions. I am fully DBS checked & have full public liability cover. I have currently changed jobs so I now only work a couple of nights a week. I take leave for the nights I have the pleasure of looking after your animals. Your animals will be treated like royalty, animals have been a huge part of my life and my life has always revolved around them. There is always plenty of cuddles, play time or chill time whatever they prefer. I’m more than happy to drive to parks or forests for a variety to their life, it will be my pleasure to exercise your animals for you. I am also public liability insured.

“Simon and family provided excellent care for our 6-month old puppy whilst we went away on holiday. They were very friendly and sent us lots of lovely photos which was very reassuring. I would recommend their services 😊”
“Kezia looked after our Weimeraner, Salto, and we can't recommend her enough. This was Salto's first time away and as he struggles the separation anxiety, we weren't sure how he would cope. Well we had no need to worry, Salto settled incredibly quickly and had a fantastic time, he has come home super happy and relaxed, which is better than any review I can give. Kezia kept us updated the whole weekend with plenty of photos, which we really appreciated and nothing was too much to ask. I've already started looking at more weekends away and won't hesitate to use Kezia again. Thank you! ✨”
“Annie welcomed Cora from 1st minute until collected the next day. Lots of updates and lovely photos throughout the day made me feel calm that she was in safe hands and meticulously cared for. Everything went seamlessly, and would not hesitate to book again. Thank you Annie”
“Such a wonderful second home for our dog to stay when we went away with lots of space for him. Sarah is a great dog sitter and would highly recommend. The communication from Sarah was perfect.”
“Nicholas was very attentive to Millies needs. Millie can be anxious around new people, but Nicholas was very understanding and experienced when interacting and caring for her. I would highly recommend his services to anyone who want a 5 star service for their pets.”
“India was amazing with our miniature dachshund Otis! Otis is a little prince who knows what he wants, so we’re really picky about who looks after him, but would recommend India to anyone and will 100% be booking him in again!”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life quite literally, my first present as a newborn straight out of hospital was a gorgeous black ball of fur aka Tyson a German shepherd puppy and from that day on we were inseparable…. Needless to say now gsd’s are my favorite breed and will always be my favorite butttt and that’s a very big but all dogs of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart. I get on with dogs better then I do humans forming special bonds and an instant attachment to any dog I lay eyes on. I can’t go anywhere without stopping whoever has a dog and asking them if I can make a fuss of them so I thought I would put this love or obsession whatever you like to call it to good use and help others and welcome your dogs into my home where they will be loved like my own and part of our pack… food bowls washed throughly after every use and water bowls washed every time it’s refilled. Long walks every day or even 2 times a day and no I’m not talking a hour at a time I’m talking 3-4 hours I believe dogs should be outside exploring not inside all day… mental stimulation is a must… I’m not saying I’m perfect I’m just saying I know what I’m doing 🥰🥰 I am currently a stay at home mum who is looking for an extra income to contribute more to my household and my family? So I have availability pretty much all day every day from 10 AM up until 2 o’clock I am free and from 4:30 till whenever you need I am free. I will have my children with me if you are happy with that I have a baby and a toddler that don’t go to school yet if it’s at the weekend, then I will be Child free. This does not affect my ability to do my job as I have pets myself and I look after them with my children. If your dogs are other dog friendly, I’m happy for your dogs to join us, if not that’s ok too I can take them separately. I have two dogs myself who are more than happy to keep your dogs company. I can crate your dog for safety, If it is needed I have a garden and children that would love to play with your dogs if your dogs are at my home or you are happy for my children to play with your dogs then my toddler is more than happy to if my other two are at school. I have plenty of fans in my house for this hot weather and they are on all the time. If your dog is at my home, there is freshwater everywhere in my home. I have no rules in my house for dogs, being toilet trained is preferred but if your dog is old incontinent or still a puppy, it is absolutely fine. I have hardwood floors and dogs have accidents happen. It’s easily cleaned up. Your dog will be more than at home here they’ll be allowed up on the sofas in our garden.

“I left a domino for the first time he had been left outside of family this weekend and it was a really positive experience for both of us. Domino had a great time and was even a bit reluctant to leave his new friends. I would not hesitate to use Martin again or recommend him to others.he obviously adores dogs and has good knowledge in how to care for them.”
“Plato loves staying with Sarah and Christian, he jumped out of the car to see them as soon as we arrived! They always look after him really well and include him in their family life. We appreciate the regular updates and photos during his time with them.”
“This was our second time boarding Rory with Lloyd, this time for a longer stay and again, had the best experience! Lloyd is so communicative and seeing photos of Rory while I was away was so comforting and I looked forward to them everyday. She got lots of exercise, time outside, and got along with Hudson seemingly so well. Again, a great experience, thank you Lloyd and Hudson!”
“Shaun was a fantastic dog sitter. My dog was extremely well taken care of and I could tell that he missed their family once we got home. I will definitely rebook with Shaun in the future and highly recommend this dog sitter.”
“What a lovely stay for our Labrador! Gitana and family are so kind and welcoming. We received plenty of photos of our dog enjoying lovely walks and adventures. We hope they are available next time we need to travel.”
“Cayman was absolutely fab. We met with her previous to our dogs stay to see her gorgeous setting. Our dog was able to run around in her huge garden/land (all secure) and had play mates there which she loved! She was so well looked after and cayman was so warm, welcoming and I felt totally comfortable leaving our young dog for the first time whilst we went away. Thanks so much.”
“I can not praise Kirsteen highly enough. Bobbi & Reg have just spent 6 nights with her & the lovely Sybil & I think they would have easily stayed for longer. Bobbi unfortunately has gone onto permanent medication since the initial booking, which Kirsteen took in her stride happily. I received regular updates & pictures of them enjoying their time together. I am extremely grateful & would not hesitate to recommend or use this lovely lady again . Many thanks Sandie, Bobbi & Reg 🐾 😂”
“Katelyn looked after our anxious Shiba Inu at short notice. He seemed to settle with her very quickly and Katelyn kept us updated with photos and videos whilst we were away. This was the first time we had left Udon with anyone and he got on really well. We were very happy and would definitely recommend.”
“Great sitter. Holly was away but her mum and the rest of the family stepped in to look after Duggie. Definitely a home from home, family experience for him with wonderful updates.”
