“I have been looking for someone to care for our large dog over the festive period. After speaking to Abby, she suggested an overnight stay. I thought this was a brilliant idea as not only does it make Abby get to know your dog but also gives you the reassurance to know that your dog will be happy.. Abby has been brilliant and our dog loved his stay, the house is situated in a lovely location with a good size garden for any size dog to be able to run around in. She has been attentive and thoughtful throughout and I am definitely booking Abby to have Duke for the time while we are away over New Year, having the confidence and reassurance that he’ll be well looked after. I would highly recommend Abby to anyone and will certainly be telling my friends how lovely she is.”
“Domonic took excellent care of my dog who seemed perfectly content and happy to share his home. Pep’s was only there for 32 hours, during that time I received one or two photos showing my ultra relaxed doggie 🐕🐾”
“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
“Alex and her family looked after Sonny for three days while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for better care. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Sonny was clearly very happy, well looked after, and treated as part of the family. He enjoyed regular walks, including lovely walks in the forest, and it was wonderful to see him having such a great time. Alex was caring, reliable, and attentive to all of Sonny's needs. We are incredibly grateful for the love and care Sonny received and would highly recommend Alex and her family to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and trustworthy home for their pet.”
“Absolutely brilliant. Tobias kept us well informed, as often as we asked, as to how our dog was getting on, with texts and video. Our dog came home happy and healthy, having enjoyed lots of attention whilst staying with Tobias and his family. The property is safe and secure, leaving us confident to leave our dog with Tobias.”
“Mat and his family were amazing. They looked after my parents Cockapoo while we went away and he was treated just like he was their dog. We were sent daily updates and Hughie was very happy, as were we that he was being so well looked after. Would highly recommend!”
“Brilliant care and communication. Toby (spaniel) can be very energetic but she took it in her stride. Daily updates. Very personable. Lovely area in the countryside too. Would highly recommend! 5*”
“We are so grateful to have Jan look after Trixie again, Trixie was very excited to see her and Mabel! It gives us such peace of mind knowing Trixie is in safe, caring hands. Jan is incredibly communicative, sends lovely photo updates, and follows Trixie's routine perfectly. Trixie absolutely loves staying there and we couldn't recommend Jan enough!”
“Laura was brilliant with Lola, took very good care of her and had excellent communication with us. We would definitely recommend, and will be booking Lola in with Laura again next time we are in the area”
“Teddy had the best time with Zena and her partner. Zena was extremely professional and thorough. They took Teddy on lots of adventures and gave him lots of exercise. Teddy has separation anxiety so leaving him isn’t easy. Zena wasn’t phased and is very calm. The location is also perfect as they have lots of space for dogs to explore. Zena goes above and beyond, I highly recommend!”
“This was the 2nd time Honey has been on her own little holiday at Diane’s lovely home and couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter. Highly recommended always can relax knowing she’s being loved and cared for with updated pics and messages even a birthday message for my daughter from honey was so lovely and thoughtful. Thank you again will definitely be back for more dog sitting in the future.”
“Kaylee looked after my senior dog Chips for 4 nights. I collected him this morning and he was very happy. Kaylee and her family said that was the most loving and friendly dog and they loved having him. He has been asleep most of the day since I bought him home.”
“This was the third time Digby has stayed with Megan, she is absolutely brilliant with him. He suffers from severe anxiety and Megan is so calm and comforting to him I wouldn’t take him to anyone else. She also looked after our puppy Winnie who enjoyed her first holiday and both pups were happy to stay thank you so much Megan xx”
“Faride and her family gave our dog Maya the best care possible whilst we were on holiday for 11 days. We received multiple updates a day which showed us just how comfortable and happy she was. We will use them again without hesitation!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and different animals my entire life, from my own pets to working on farms🐶. I’m 23 and have grown up with my own family Labradors and smaller dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities and needs. I’m the person my family and friends rely on to look after their pets when they’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they get plenty of attention, affection, exercise and, most importantly, feel happy and comfortable, as they are family members🥰. What sets me apart is that this isn’t just a job for me - I’m genuinely passionate about animals and take pride in giving every pet the care and attention they deserve and ensuring all their furry needs are met❤️ I’ve recently completed my Master’s degree in London and have moved back home for the next month or so. I currently have a very flexible schedule with no major commitments, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to your pets - whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles or simply keeping them company. I’m happy to work around your routine and give your furry friends the attention they need! 🐾 Your pet would be welcomed into a friendly, comfortable home where they can feel relaxed and part of the family. I have a Labrador and a small Jack Russell, both of whom are very friendly and love having other dogs around, so I’d just make sure they’re a good match beforehand. We have a fully enclosed back garden with access throughout the day, giving dogs plenty of space to roam, play and get some fresh air. There are also cosy areas around the house for relaxing, with stair gates used where needed to keep everyone safe. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection and care while they’re with me. 🐾
“I would absolutely send Rosie to Jessica again. She sent pictures, has lovely dogs herself and treated Rosie as part of the family. Many thanks to Jessica, husband and the children.”
“Sylvia was cognisant of the fact that Archie was away from home for the first time and handled him appropriately. I was pleased with the feedback that I got plus the photos. She asked about anything that she was unsure of, to do with his behaviour and how we fed him etc I will use Sylvia again knowing that I can feel at ease while on holiday.”
“Louise took Winnie for me very last minute due to personal bereavement and she was so lovely and very responsive. They live in a beautiful farmhouse with so much land with a fully protective garden. I got sent plenty of photos and Winnie was very loved and looked after by the family. I highly recommend Louise to look after your furry loved ones and thank you again!”
“Andrea is great with our dog, Tarly. He is very happy to stay with her and Estelle. We received photos and a video and knew he was having lovely walks in the snow. Andrea also was very accommodating and patient when we had car issues which delayed us. We highly recommend Andrea.”

“We were delighted with the service Abby provided in taking care of our three Ragdoll cats. Abby was professional, she sent us photographs of the cats whilst we were on holiday, which brought us joy knowing they were in good hands.”
“Zoe was fabulous with our Henry! He’s a very pampered cat.. and isn’t sure of new people. But he was very settled and happy with Zoe. A chilled calm and happy little man when we returned home after a couple of days away. Zoe sent me a few photos- which is super reassuring. She took great care of our home. We would not hesitate to ask for Zoe again, or recommend her!”
“I was so pleased to have Ann visit and feed my cat whilst I was away for a couple of days. Communication was easy and I felt confident that my cat was left in good hands, which indeed she was. Thank you!”
“Elizabeth not only took great care of martha, keeping her company and making sure she was fed and watered but also went above and beyond to help us get the keys back after a technical mishap. Great service and great communication.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since childhood, and my love for them has only grown over the years. I adore their unique personalities—every cat is different, and I take the time to understand their needs, whether they’re playful, shy, or independent. I have experience with feeding, litter maintenance, playtime, and giving lots of affection (if they’re in the mood for it!). Your cat’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like my own while you’re away 🐈💖🐈⬛
About: I have take care of cats for many years, as the animals are very independent and determined i prefer to let them rome the house freely and have a constant food / water supply. I also have a cat only room as i do usually have dogs in my home. Rest assured the kittens and cats do not have to come into contact with the dogs and have a climbing, adventurous room to themselves!
About: As a long term cat owner of four cats, I have extensive experience with daily cat care, including feeding schedules, litter hygiene, enrichment and monitoring wellbeing. I provide reliable, calm care tailored to each cat’s individual needs.
“Beth was brilliant, my 2 collies clearly loved her to bits. She was prompt, sent lots of photos and even ran the hoover round without being asked (the dogs had been on a beach walk and dropped sand everywhere) Will definitely be using her again!”
“Imogen looked after my cats for the first time recently, and I could not recommend her more highly. I have seven cats, all with very different personalities and needs. Some are extremely high-maintenance, some are incredibly friendly, others are very shy, and three of them have epilepsy and require close monitoring. It can definitely be a bit overwhelming for someone who isn’t used to a busy multi-cat household, but Imogen handled everything amazingly. From the moment she came for a meet-and-greet, it was obvious how naturally good she is with animals. Two of my cats immediately gravitated towards her, which I think says everything, as cats are usually very good judges of character! All of the cats absolutely loved her, and I felt completely reassured knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She was calm, attentive, and clearly very experienced and comfortable around cats with different temperaments and medical needs. I’m so grateful for the care she gave my babies, and I’ll definitely be using her services again in the future. I’m very happy with the service Imogen provided and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter.”
“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.”
“Alexio is a very warm and kind person and he has been wonderful with our two cats Millie & Peach. He sent us lots of photos and videos with updates while we were away and we returned to two very happy and content cats.”
About: Me and my partner work from home full time and would love the company of a four-legged friend. I only ever take in one dog at a time, this means your dog gets 100% of my attention, the best spot on the sofa, and a routine that doesn't change just because they aren't at home. I keep my client list small and exclusive to ensure I can be available when you need it most.

“Dominic was really great. We had plenty of detailed comms beforehand and all was exactly what we hoped for on arranging and booking. Sadly, we were unable to travel on the day of booking due to illness and Dominic was very understanding of this. We are definitely going to book again with Dominic as he is a very friendly chap and very professional in his approach. See you during the summer!”

About: Hi! Im Faith. 8+ years of animal and dog experience. From being a trainee Vet Nurse, dealing with check ups and consultations, working in a well known Kennels to thriving in an animal University and finishing with an Animal Care Diploma. I now have my own business after completing Pet Psychology which is mainly boarding and training however, i do offer consultations, virtual training and training with boarding, offered through my page. Boarding dogs and having lots of fun on the way is my day to day, and i wouldn’t change it! Making sure the dog/cat under my supervision is safe and happy is a key part to boarding, im constantly bringing comfort while their owners are away. I am very bubbly and enjoy most of my time walking and training dogs so they can live a happy life- whatever you need to make you feel comfortable, just let me know. I have a car so i can take the dogs on adventures to big parks and lakes. (I can offer a bath if they get smelly due to too much fun in the mud) I can also offer nail trimming and ear cleaning with all vet approved products. I have a first aid kit on site to keep minds at ease, but this is for safety reasons. Drop off and collections are either 7-9am or 4-6pm. Please make sure you are on time. For any queries on this, please let me know and i will do my best to accommodate. Please see page below for more details. Find me on Instagram- Miss Ivy’s (main business page) 🐶 I am focused on looking after your dog or cat throughout the week, i am home full time with dogs/other boards so can keep to a routine and make sure your pet is comfortable. I have a fenced garden, if the weather is hot, evening walks or AM walks are best. All pets have a safe space to play and run and have a comfy bed to sleep/relax.
“We felt instantly at ease when we first met Alex to drop off our slightly nervous 1 year old cocker spaniel (Ronnie). We had regular updates throughout the evening which helped ease our worries - he fed him and took him out on a couple walks so he could do his business. He was also very accommodating to our needs as we needed to pick Ronnie up at the unsociable time of 11pm. Would definitely use Alex again if we are in the area and need help 👌”
“This was the first time I've left my puppy with someone and Andreas really reassured me. Trixy had a fab day (she told me ?) she had lots of fun. I would not hesitate to take Trixy to Andreas again.”
“Jess was absolutely amazing with Bailey! From the moment he arrived, she made him feel so welcome and comfortable. He also got on brilliantly with her two lovely dogs, which was really nice to see and meant he had some great company while he was there. 🐶❤️ Jess kept me updated and I felt completely reassured knowing Bailey was happy, settled and being so well looked after. He clearly had a lovely time and came home happy and content. I’m so grateful to Jess for taking such good care of him, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy and experienced. We’ll definitely be booking with Jess again! 🐾💕”
About: Hi there ! Since my childhood I've had and looked after many animals all shapes and sizes. I consider myself a confident and caring individual who will look after your pet and their needs. I will try my best to be flexible, and am happy to discuss any particular requirements or preferences. I do have a friendly dog aged 2 of my own, so for any stays at my home address I would require a short meet and greet to make sure they get along first. I am currently working from home the majority of the week and do have time on weekends for bigger walks or longer drop in visits. I have a large fenced back garden for your dog to be safe and play in. Additionally to the grass is a rubber pieced section too.
“Pinar took such good care of our miniature dachshund bramble. She gave us lots of updates throughout, photos and videos. We felt like Pintar and her family looked after Bramble as if she was their own dog. Would definitely recommend her to anyone”

“Leanna was fantastic at providing doggy day care for Luca! I appreciated how she asked questions beforehand to make sure she knew a little about him and was prepared, kept us updated throughout the day with pictures & comments and it was clear he had had a great time. He came back tired and happy. Thanks Leanna and we would definitely book you again!”
“Amazing! Great giving me lots of information and asking questions prior to our first visit. So friendly and welcoming when dropping him off and then updates and photos in the day - just the reassurance I didn’t know I wanted! At pick up he was so happy playing barely noticed me! Will certainly be recommending and re-using Amy! 🖤”
“Kazoo had a good time with Sylvia. She was punctual, responded to messages quickly, and sent us updates throughout her stay. We also forgot her water bottle but Sylvia brought it round the next day.”
About: I’m an 18-year-old female living on a farm, with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals. I have two dogs of my own, including one who is quite nervous, so I understand the importance of patience, attention, and tailoring walks to suit each dog’s individual needs. I’m also confident handling larger, energetic dogs—my spaniels certainly keep me on my toes! At home, I care for an indoor cat who loves plenty of affection, so I’m equally comfortable providing gentle, attentive care for cats. I’m looking to offer dog walking and pet sitting alongside my studies, combining my passion for animals with staying active, while making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently studying radiology My availability’s are: Monday 3-5pm Tuesday 9-11am Wednesday 9am-5pm Thursday 2-5pm Friday 1-3pm Saturday & Sunday all day If you do have any requests for other times feel free to get in contact and i may be able to be flexible however this is my current time frames I focus on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent for every pet. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible and take note of any specific needs, whether that’s a nervous dog who needs a bit more patience or a high-energy dog that needs proper handling on walks. In an owner’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions around feeding, exercise, and care. I make sure pets are secure at all times—checking leads, gates, and surroundings. At my home on the farm, there’s plenty of space, but pets are always supervised in a safe environment, I am very aware of the ability dogs and cats may have as I’ve seen my puppy jump a big gate . Overall, I just aim to keep pets comfortable and well looked after while and for their owners to feel comfortable and confident their pets will be safe

“Having recently moved we were looking for a dog walker and possible future boarding. Our previous walker and boarder we had known for 8 years so it was a tough act to follow. Communications with Abby were easy and prompt. We met her first at her home which is lovely and rural and with secure fencing. She walked them today and updated us straight after. Would happily recommend Abby and will certainly be using her again. 5 🌟”
About: I love dogs, we have always had dogs in the family and currently we have a very cheeky husky. I've raised from puppies as well as adopted older dogs. Recently I have completed an Ofqual certified Level 3 Daycare and Boarding correspondence course with the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, and am now considering what the next steps in my development will be. I spend a lot of time with dogs, and am constantly developing my understanding of their body language and needs. I am a full-time dog boarder and walker, so am able to adapt my schedule to your pet's needs and be with them almost all of the time. Dogs that are boarding with me are walked twice a day, have lots of socialisation, and treated with enrichment toys and games. I have a fenced off garden and a friendly husky to play with your dog. Dogs can pick which sofa/bed they are most comfortable on. It's a very relaxed and friendly environment. Each dog boarding room has heating, ventilation and is monitored with a camera so. Dogs from different homes are boarded in separate private rooms. Dogs are introduced in a safe, supervised fashion and are allowed to mix while supervised if compatible. I only accept vaccinated dogs. The house has fire extinguishers, doggie first aid kits and the hard floors are treated to provide more grip to your pet. I also do drop-in services, if you would rather your dogs stayed at home, as well as solo & group walks.
“Isobel looks after and walks our little Jack Russell on occasions. She is very knowledgeable about the care of dogs. Pickle is always happy to see her. Would highly recommend”

But mainly to provide a service that allows Clients to ensure their pets are well looked after when other commitments call. I know how close to us our pets are so clear communication with my Clients on how their pet is doing would be key. I set up Bark 4 the Lead at the beginning of 2024.

I recommend clients to visit with their pets prior to booking so they feel comfortable and reassured.

I always prioritise safety, trust, and routine when caring for pets. I follow owners’ instructions closely, keep environments calm and secure, and ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for in their own home.
“Faith was excellent with Rocky. It was his first time having someone else walk him for a longer period of time and she done an amazing job. Couldn’t recommend Faith enough. She’ll take great care of your pets, keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos and you can tell she cares a lot so you’re pet will get the best care from her! I Will 1000% use faith again!!”
About: Hi, I’m Paulina — though the dogs know me as Pawlina 🐾! I run PAWLINA: Home for Pets, a safe, licensed, and insured home-from-home for dogs in Little Fransham. I hold a Breckland Council Animal Welfare Licence (AWL0208) for home boarding and daycare of up to 5 dogs, so you can be sure your pets are cared for to the highest standards. I’ve loved animals since I was a child—my home was always full of pets, and I’ve felt happiest outdoors in nature. I’m calm and gentle, which animals seem to naturally sense. Even the shyest ones warm up to me quickly and often come over for cuddles. I can't walk away when an animal needs help—like the little kitten I rescued and found a loving home for (take a peek at my gallery, but be prepared for a cuteness overload 😍). It makes me very happy to make animals feel safe and loved. What I also love about my pet-sitting work is the chance to meet wonderful people—pet owners who, like me, truly care about animals. From my experience, pet owners are some of the kindest and most caring individuals you can find, and I feel lucky to be around such a kind community. At Pawlina's, your furry family member will be safe, loved, and treated like one of my own. I can’t wait to welcome them and help them feel right at home! 🐾❤️ I work part-time from home — just a couple of hours in the morning and a couple in the afternoon, Monday to Friday. Because my job is home-based, I’m available all week to care for your pets. They’ll never be left for long periods and will always get plenty of time, care, and attention every single day. Together with my partner, I live in a cosy two-bed bungalow with a secure 0.17-acre garden in peaceful Little Fransham. The area is wonderfully quiet, with beautiful walks right on our doorstep — perfect for outdoor adventures with pets. Whether welcoming your furry friend into my spacious, pet-friendly home or caring for them in yours, I prioritise creating a calm and secure environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routines and preferences so they feel completely at ease.
About: I grew up with dogs all my life. I own 2 Labradors and have bred one litter of Labradors and keep in touch with theirs owners. Go on walks on the coast I’m currently working part time. And will have plenty of availability to look after your pets and give them lots of love. I’m looking forward to working with them I have a fenced garden and absolutely love taking care of your pets.

“Hattie took the dogs for a lovely walk and fed them their lunch. She sent me cute photos and confirmed that they had both peed and pooped. The dogs were in fine fettle when I got home later. Thanks Hattie!”
About: Hi, I’m Abigail! 🐾 After six years in the emergency services, I decided to give up the uniform and follow my passion for dogs, the outdoors, and providing a safe, trustworthy service for pet owners. I provide a calm, secure, and welcoming home where your dog will feel completely at ease. Your dog/s will have constant care, attention, and plenty of affection throughout their stay. I’m home full-time, so your dog’s routine, safety, and happiness are always my priority. I have a large, fully secure garden with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, giving dogs plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy themselves safely. I share my home with my friendly Irish Setter, Rory, who is gentle, playful, and great with other dogs. He loves company and helps create a relaxed, social environment for visiting dogs. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages — from young puppies to senior dogs — and I’m confident supporting different needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter, slower pace, I will adapt to them. I come from a professional background where trust, responsibility, and safety were essential, and I bring that same level of care and attention into looking after every dog. 🐾 What you can expect: * A home-from-home environment * Dogs are never left alone * Secure garden for safe outdoor time * Walks tailored to your dog (on or off lead) * Regular updates, photos, and communication * Flexible and attentive care to suit your dog’s routine I’m very mindful that every dog is different, so I will always follow your instructions closely — from feeding and walking to sleep routines and preferences. I’m happy to care for dogs who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance — just let me know what helps them feel comfortable. We look forward to welcoming your dog into our home and giving you complete peace of mind ✨ Our calendar is kept up to date daily, and we’re always quick to respond to messages. We’re home seven days a week, so your dog will never be left alone. 🏡 A safe, secure, and relaxed environment My home is spacious and set up to give dogs a calm, safe place to settle in and feel comfortable. The garden is fully secure with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, so dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely. I live on a quiet, secluded street away from main roads, creating a peaceful environment that’s ideal for dogs of all temperaments. The garden is a great size for all breeds, with plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy a good run around. Large patio doors open directly onto the garden, allowing dogs to move freely between inside and outside when appropriate. They can also be closed to create a calm, cosy space for rest and nap times. Inside, the home is open-plan with plenty of room to relax, along with soft furnishings and lots of toys to keep dogs happy and entertained. For added safety, all human food is kept well out of reach, so you can feel confident your dog is in a secure and carefully managed environment.
About: I grew up in a dog-loving home with an Irish Red Setter rescue and a Doberman we raised from a puppy, so I'm no stranger to big dogs with big personalities. Over the years, I've cared for pups of all sizes, breeds, and ages - from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while you're away. A recent move means I am now taking on new clients in and around Norwich. Please see my reviews and reach out for a chat if I can help to care for your pup! I’m working from home, with plenty of gaps in between for toilet breaks and walks in the park - I like to get away from my desk when I can and would love for your dog to join me. I’ve been house sitting for a number of years, both through Rover (please check my reviews) and word of mouth from my existing clients. I will care for your home as if it is my own. I am happy to discuss carrying out tasks unrelated to your pup, too.
About: Hey there! I’m Pedro—a lifelong dog lover who lives on the road with my amazing companion, Koda. Together, we explore forests, beaches, and countryside trails, and I love sharing that energy and freedom with the dogs I look after. Whether your pup needs a weekend of forest adventures or just someone calm and reliable while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. I’m experienced with large and small breeds, gentle with nervous dogs, and always patient and attentive. Dogs in my care get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and affection—and you get peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I can relocate and move where the job needs me to be. I'm flexible and I can adapt to the needs of the dog. I love to play and I'm respecful of their needs. I know about good dog nutrition. I take dogs with me in to nature and urban environment. I am observant of body language and their needs.I am reassuring and confident around big or small dogs.
“Maisie absolutely loved her time with Georgia. She sat waiting excitedly by the front door to go out on her adventures and came home contented. Georgia was fantastic with Maisie, responsive to my messages and put me at ease leaving her. I would not hesitate to book Georgia again.”

“I have been looking for someone to care for our large dog over the festive period. After speaking to Abby, she suggested an overnight stay. I thought this was a brilliant idea as not only does it make Abby get to know your dog but also gives you the reassurance to know that your dog will be happy.. Abby has been brilliant and our dog loved his stay, the house is situated in a lovely location with a good size garden for any size dog to be able to run around in. She has been attentive and thoughtful throughout and I am definitely booking Abby to have Duke for the time while we are away over New Year, having the confidence and reassurance that he’ll be well looked after. I would highly recommend Abby to anyone and will certainly be telling my friends how lovely she is.”
“Domonic took excellent care of my dog who seemed perfectly content and happy to share his home. Pep’s was only there for 32 hours, during that time I received one or two photos showing my ultra relaxed doggie 🐕🐾”
“As soon as I met Victoria I knew she was responsible, friendly and approachable. I felt my dog was enjoying himself with Victoria’s dog and was sent photos of them playing together. I had complete faith in her being able to look after Bailey and when he returned home he was tired but happy.”
“Alex and her family looked after Sonny for three days while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for better care. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Sonny was clearly very happy, well looked after, and treated as part of the family. He enjoyed regular walks, including lovely walks in the forest, and it was wonderful to see him having such a great time. Alex was caring, reliable, and attentive to all of Sonny's needs. We are incredibly grateful for the love and care Sonny received and would highly recommend Alex and her family to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and trustworthy home for their pet.”
“Absolutely brilliant. Tobias kept us well informed, as often as we asked, as to how our dog was getting on, with texts and video. Our dog came home happy and healthy, having enjoyed lots of attention whilst staying with Tobias and his family. The property is safe and secure, leaving us confident to leave our dog with Tobias.”
“Mat and his family were amazing. They looked after my parents Cockapoo while we went away and he was treated just like he was their dog. We were sent daily updates and Hughie was very happy, as were we that he was being so well looked after. Would highly recommend!”
“Brilliant care and communication. Toby (spaniel) can be very energetic but she took it in her stride. Daily updates. Very personable. Lovely area in the countryside too. Would highly recommend! 5*”
“We are so grateful to have Jan look after Trixie again, Trixie was very excited to see her and Mabel! It gives us such peace of mind knowing Trixie is in safe, caring hands. Jan is incredibly communicative, sends lovely photo updates, and follows Trixie's routine perfectly. Trixie absolutely loves staying there and we couldn't recommend Jan enough!”
“Laura was brilliant with Lola, took very good care of her and had excellent communication with us. We would definitely recommend, and will be booking Lola in with Laura again next time we are in the area”
“Teddy had the best time with Zena and her partner. Zena was extremely professional and thorough. They took Teddy on lots of adventures and gave him lots of exercise. Teddy has separation anxiety so leaving him isn’t easy. Zena wasn’t phased and is very calm. The location is also perfect as they have lots of space for dogs to explore. Zena goes above and beyond, I highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and different animals my entire life, from my own pets to working on farms🐶. I’m 23 and have grown up with my own family Labradors and smaller dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities and needs. I’m the person my family and friends rely on to look after their pets when they’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they get plenty of attention, affection, exercise and, most importantly, feel happy and comfortable, as they are family members🥰. What sets me apart is that this isn’t just a job for me - I’m genuinely passionate about animals and take pride in giving every pet the care and attention they deserve and ensuring all their furry needs are met❤️ I’ve recently completed my Master’s degree in London and have moved back home for the next month or so. I currently have a very flexible schedule with no major commitments, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to your pets - whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles or simply keeping them company. I’m happy to work around your routine and give your furry friends the attention they need! 🐾 Your pet would be welcomed into a friendly, comfortable home where they can feel relaxed and part of the family. I have a Labrador and a small Jack Russell, both of whom are very friendly and love having other dogs around, so I’d just make sure they’re a good match beforehand. We have a fully enclosed back garden with access throughout the day, giving dogs plenty of space to roam, play and get some fresh air. There are also cosy areas around the house for relaxing, with stair gates used where needed to keep everyone safe. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection and care while they’re with me. 🐾
“I would absolutely send Rosie to Jessica again. She sent pictures, has lovely dogs herself and treated Rosie as part of the family. Many thanks to Jessica, husband and the children.”
“Sylvia was cognisant of the fact that Archie was away from home for the first time and handled him appropriately. I was pleased with the feedback that I got plus the photos. She asked about anything that she was unsure of, to do with his behaviour and how we fed him etc I will use Sylvia again knowing that I can feel at ease while on holiday.”
“Louise took Winnie for me very last minute due to personal bereavement and she was so lovely and very responsive. They live in a beautiful farmhouse with so much land with a fully protective garden. I got sent plenty of photos and Winnie was very loved and looked after by the family. I highly recommend Louise to look after your furry loved ones and thank you again!”
“Andrea is great with our dog, Tarly. He is very happy to stay with her and Estelle. We received photos and a video and knew he was having lovely walks in the snow. Andrea also was very accommodating and patient when we had car issues which delayed us. We highly recommend Andrea.”
“Issy had a wonderful time with Shaun and his family.he was excellent with our energetic Staffie and we were really confident leaving her with him. They supported our routines as well as including her in their family life. He sent regular updates and the meet and greet beforehand was really beneficial and made us feel really comfortable that she would be well cared for. A very experienced family who looked after our Issy really well.10/10 would recommend.”
“I am so happy to have found such a caring’ home from home ‘ for my dog Ruby. Pinar is caring, so knowledgable and sensitive to the animals and very professional. Highly recommend.”
“Gabi was excellent with our dog Max! We got regular updates and pictures which put us at ease while visiting the other end of the country. Gabi reassured us that she’d looked after bigger dogs before and all went really well. Max got to play in the nearby river on hotter days and some needed off lead time in the nearby park to tire him out! Would definitely look to use Gabi again to look after Max the next time we go away 🤩🐶”
“Izzy and Dan were fantastic hosts for my dog Lacey. She had a wonderful stay with them, full of lovely outings and adventures. I can tell they really care about the dogs they look after: Lacey was so well looked after the whole time. I especially loved the daily updates with photos and videos, which made it easy to relax knowing she was happy and having fun. I would highly recommend Izzy and Dan to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring dog sitters. Thank you both!”
“Excellent communication, regular updates and photos/videos of mac. He looks like he’s had the best time, thoroughly spoilt. Thank you so much for looking after him, would definitely recommend x”
