“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.”
“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 🐾 😂”
“Chelsea is amazing! She took great care of our dog, sending regular updates and photos so we could stay connected while we were away. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear she had a real connection with our pomeranian- he didn't want to leave her house at the end of the stay! We'll definitely be booking her again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Tom looked after Enola (our 18 month old flat coat retriever) and she had a great time. Tom was super flexible and kept us informed about our dog happiness with overwhelming us with information! We were able to kick back and enjoy a local festival (that did not allow dogs)!!”
“Thank you Jill and family for taking Toffee in for the week. It's a home away from home for him at this stage. Thanks for the regular updates and photographs. Toffee's looking forward to his next holiday at yours!”
“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.”
“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”
“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.”
“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: Growing up around animals I have gained experience in loving for horses, dogs, cats, reptiles and many more! I currently own two lovely girl rats (Luna and CC) and a puppy Finn! I am keen to transfer my animal loving nature towards your furry (or otherwise) children! I have owned many dogs through my time around animals big and small, I will attach some pictures of my previous pups down below! In my early years I owned a lovely pony called Rio, which involved early mornings and late nights of TLC. I own my own vehicle as well as a range of dog seat belt sizes, so if your dog enjoys time at the beach or would just enjoy some new scenery I can accommodate that too! No ask is too much! I work part time Wednesday to Saturday 9-5:30 so anything before or after those hours works great! Monday, Tuesday and Sunday I am fully flexible for you! Due to me and partner having small animals in my home for your pets safety and theirs I am only able to pet sit over night in your home, or if your animal is okay being on their own, and you just need me to pop by for potty breaks, walks or feeding/medication, I can do that too!
“Judit and her lovely family made my dogs so welcome. They really looked after them and we received regular updates, photos and videos and it was so reassuring to see them having such a lovely time. I would definitely recommend them 100% and would definitely use them again in the future. Thank you guys :) xx”
“Vanessa was fantastic and so loving to George. She sent us messages telling us how he got on. George and Vanessa’s dogs got on well. Would highly recommend Vanessa as a kind and caring dog carer.”
“We have had buddy for four years and always had our holidays in the UK and have been able to take him with us on holiday. We made the decision this year that we wanted to go abroad. We didn't want to put buddy in kennels and after searching the site settled on Mark. After a meet and greet we felt reassured and booked buddy in. While away Mark was sending us great photos and videos and provided us further reassurance that Buddy was having a great staycation. I would recommend him highly and would use Mark again.”
“Words can’t say how happy I was with Chester’s care. It truly was home from home. I could see that he was treated as one of the family including the children. I liked that he could cuddle on the sofa in the evening with Jodie as he does with me at home and he had the freedom of the house. I would 100% recommend her. fabulous family environment”
“Lipa was so well cared for. She's old and has specific issues but Laura was very understanding, caring and Lipa loved her time with Laura. Laura completely fulfills the individual dogs' needs. Would highly recommend ans will book again.”
“Megan was absolutely wonderful with BoBo! Our miniature Dachshund can be quite a nervous soul in new places, but Megan’s patient approach meant he settled in no time. She followed every instruction perfectly and the frequent photo updates were such a lovely touch that kept us totally stress-free. We picked up a very happy pup and will definitely be booking Megan again!”
“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.”

“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”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m calm, patient, and reliable, and I always follow each pet’s routine closely. I prefer one-on-one walks so I can give dogs my full attention and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, playtime, and lots of affection, and I take responsibility and trust very seriously. I currently have a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to fit pet care easily into my daily routine. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits during weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow instructions carefully, respect your home, and keep pets on leads unless told otherwise. I make sure doors and gates are secure, routines are followed closely, and pets feel calm, safe, and well cared for at all times.
“Lucy has done such a lovely job looking after our senior cat again - he loves her and we’ve come home to a very happy and relaxed cat! The updates were brilliant and we’d recommend her 100%. Thank you Lucy!”
“Lucia was wonderful at looking after our 3 cats whilst we were away; she gave us updates on how they were and gave our elderly cat her medication. Came home to happy cats :) Thank you Lucia! Looking forward to next time ”
“Paula was so very kind and caring towards our cat and helped very much even when he was unwell. She kept in touch and sent pictures and videos of him. We were so grateful to have her here with him for peace of mind. She even cleaned the house before leaving which was so thoughtful. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I’ve had cats since I was young and have always felt drawn to them. They are wonderful creatures and each and every one of them has such a unique personality. Rest assured when I’m caring for your cat they will be treated like the royalty each of them believe themselves to be. Cats can become very attached to a single person and dislike anyone else. It takes time to build that trust and I won’t push your cats boundaries. Im a very patient person and love to earn the connection with a cat. While you’re away your cat will be treated like family and I’ll make sure that they are happy and that you’re also happy with daily updates and photos. If your cat likes to play then we will get some toys and play, or maybe your cat just likes to have company and wants some pets. Whatever your cats requires I’m here to accommodate. Just let me know what your cat requires and it will be done. I look forward to hearing from you -Ben
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.
About: I have had pet dogs and cats since the age of 10 and have also spent lots of time caring for friends and family pets. For 15 years I ran a smallholding with goats, pigs, sheep and various types of poultry and also farm sat on a regular basis at a 100 head goat farm. Experienced in milking and kidding. I love all types of animals, love spending time with them and treat them all as if they were my own. I'm happy to house sit and care for your animals throughout the UK and Europe. I am currently working part time but this is very flexible and from January 2026 I'll be available for full time pet sitting. I can't wait. I will look after your pets and your house as if they were my own. I am very reliable and trustworthy and have a DBS check.

“This was our first time using 'Rover' and it went really well. We are very happy to recommend Colin, who looked after Kiki for us while we were at a wedding in the area. As soon as we arrived, we could tell that Kiki was going to be looked after really well. Thank you Colin! Much appreciated.”
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.
“Monica had Milo for the day, ahead of looking after him when we have our holiday. Milo had a great time with lots of attention, play time and walks. We can 100% recommend Monica and feel totally happy that Milo will receive all the care and love he enjoys.”
“Thank you so much for making my boys totally at ease. I recommend Sarah 100%, without hesitation, for anyone who wants the best doggy daycare 😁 I collected two very happy doggies after their day with Sarah. Brilliant space for them to run about … no negatives - only positives x”
“Thanks so much to Christian and Sarah for taking such good care of our lovely young dog Bryn. Bryn who we have adopted recently is still quite hyper and also prone to pushing limits and it was great to know he was in safe confident hands. Will certainly hope that he can come back again soon. Thanks!”
“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”
“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. Maya came home happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoyed her time there. We’re really pleased to have found someone so reliable, friendly, and caring. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend France’s and will definitely book with her again!”
“Very impressed with the service. Jill and her family are very open and friendly. I was very anxious and nervous the first time I left my dog but they put me at ease giving me updates and reassurance. Milo had the best time ever. Thank you Jill xxx”
About: Must be child friendly 💜 One of my favourite things to do when taking care of dogs is taking them on days out and visiting different dog friendly places with them - if that’s also their thing! We love to go on a lot of walks, staying active and stimulated. We also have a cemetery moments away which is popular to us dog walkers for all types of dog personalities due to the lead only rule - great for those that prefer to be on a walk uninterrupted. I know that some dogs do struggle with separation anxiety which is why one of my strategies is to take them out on a walk almost immediately after a drop off as it rather quickly settles them and helps them to form a bond and trust with me. They will receive lots of love, attention and play - your dog’s happiness will be my top priority. I believe that I am not providing just a care for your companions but also in a way, their owners too. You will receive lots of photos and updates throughout their stay, that is something extremely important to me to provide for you as I know how at ease it’ll make you feel whilst you’re away from your pets and I will want to make sure you can enjoy your time away with all the reassurance you need! - I lock in prices so if my fees are to go up in the future they will always remain at the original price for you. I work early during the day whilst my partner works during the night, there will always be someone here at the house for your dog! I will like to know your routine to keep it as similar as it is when they’re at home I can. We will love for you to bring their home comforts.
“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”
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: I've cared for pets from a young age, including cats, dogs, chinchillas, hamsters, tortoises, fish, and even hedgehogs, so quite the variety! While I love all animals, cats and dogs are my favorites. I have experience training puppies beyond my own, helping them learn commands, crate training (when desired), and proper house training. My own dog is allowed on the furniture and bed, but I fully respect each owner's preferences and always follow instructions to ensure the best care for both pets and their humans. I’m an active person, committed to hitting 10k steps a day, so dog walking fits perfectly into my routine. I truly enjoy it (poop scooping included). I’ve worked with families that have multiple pets and have provided pet sitting both in my own home and at clients’ homes. I understand that every animal is unique and always provide personalised care tailored to their individual needs, asking you for as much detail as possible and always updating you with photos and videos of your pets whilst they’re in my care. I have lots of returning clients due to my high standards, trustworthiness & reliability. I have a flexible schedule and prioritise my days around the pet(s) I am caring for. When I look after any pet, I treat them exactly how I would want someone to treat my own pets - with integrity, care and personalised to their needs. I pride myself on high standards: clean, safe environments, trusting relationships, reliability and genuine care. I have a car, making transport easy when needed. With no children in my home and support from my mum and sister, my own pet can be out of the house if required, ensuring a comfortable environment for any pet in my care. In my home, pets have a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I have a secure, fenced garden for fresh air and exercise, and a crate available if needed. My own dog is friendly and happy to provide company, but if a pet prefers to be the only one around, I can easily arrange for my dog to stay with my mum or sister. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow the owner’s routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or cuddles, I ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I also keep things tidy and make sure they have everything they need while their owner is away.

About: Working from home on my product brand means either laying in the sun or cuddled up on the sofa. Being available all day means my dog Marco gets constant attention, it’s just a shame he’s more interested in other dogs affection. Your dog gets genuinely real constant company. I’m fully available to pay as much attention as the dog needs, I work around my dogs need for affection. We like to, cuddle, train and go for long walks on the beach. I have an enclosed garden with patio and grass for playing in. Marco is happy to share his toys. The house is a free for all for my dog.

“Colin came out of his way to meet Fern and I in our home. Colin is a very friendly character, who enjoys spending his time with dogs.

“Amanda was lovely and very professional. She visited our dog in our home before the scheduled dog walks. I was a little apprehensive as never used a dog walker before but Amanda put us at ease and Buddy liked her a lot! Her demeanour was calm and caring. Highly recommend. Thank you for caring for our beautiful boy!”

About: Hello I am a mature and responsible pet sitter with considerable experience with small to medium sized dogs, old and young, located in Suffolk. I am fully insured with an Enhanced DBS on the update service, I am constantly updating my skills and have received Canine First Aid and Dog Behavioural Training. I spend a lot of time with the animals I care for particularly with companion dogs who are used to spending a lot of time with their owners. I love the countryside and like to take my dogs on interesting and adventurous walks suitable for their ability. I carry out extra household duties such as watering plants, putting bins out and any other specific duties my clients would like to care for their home whilst they are away. I have a background in property management and can react quickly if any unusual issues arise. I am primarily a part time book editor but I work from home so I can be flexible with my time. When I look after your home and pets, I do not walk or look after any other household. I like to spend nearly all my time with the dogs and take them out on trips with me. Pet sitting needs to be scheduled in advance. I can be available last minute for local sits and walks subject to availability. I am a loving House & Pet Sitter and care for animals in their own comfortable home environment. I prefer to meet both my clients and their pets beforehand so normally work within a reasonable driving distance, although I do have clients in London and Norfolk.

I offer a professional service including excellent communication and attuned pet care with regular updates if required. My long background in social care has given me the gift of helping people feel comfortable and safe and this also extends to animals. I have worked with many rescue animals and appreciate the challenges they face, especially with other dogs in public spaces. I offer a service that includes both walks, medication, feeding and play time plus the energy healing. I'm also clean, tidy and very respectful of pets parents homes.

When supporting dogs I follow the routine required of pet parents, often including two walks a day, feeding, and play time in the afternoon. I bond quickly with animals so I often find myself giving belly rubs! Cats being such unique creatures I support them in the way they wish, making sure they are fed and watered, nurtured and ensure outdoor access is provided if no cat flap is available. I have also supported with the care of tortoises, rabbits, fish and chicken - changing out the hay regularly and collecting eggs. I'm also available for horses and happy to change hay for them also.

Your pet isn't just a client to me; they're a cherished companion deserving of specialised attention, making my pet sitting services stand out for those who seek more than routine care—an extraordinary bond built on trust and genuine affection. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine, reflecting my deep commitment to providing consistent and reliable service. Each day begins with a focus on the well-being of the pets under my care. From morning walks and play sessions to feeding and administering any necessary medications, I ensure a structured routine that meets their individual needs. Regular check-ins and updates are a crucial part of my routine, allowing pet owners to stay informed and connected. Throughout the week, I allocate dedicated time for additional activities, whether it's specialised training sessions, grooming, or simply quality bonding time with each pet. Flexibility is key, and I adapt my schedule to accommodate any specific requirements or unexpected changes. Whether it's a midday visit, an evening stroll, I prioritise the comfort and happiness of the pets, creating a routine that revolves around their unique personalities and preferences. By incorporating pet care seamlessly into my routine, I provide a stable and loving environment, ensuring that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve consistently. Regular Exercise: Daily walks, playtime, and activities tailored to each pet's energy level and preferences. Ensuring the pet feels secure and comfortable in their familiar environment.

“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.”
“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 🐾 😂”
“Tom looked after Enola (our 18 month old flat coat retriever) and she had a great time. Tom was super flexible and kept us informed about our dog happiness with overwhelming us with information! We were able to kick back and enjoy a local festival (that did not allow dogs)!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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: Growing up around animals I have gained experience in loving for horses, dogs, cats, reptiles and many more! I currently own two lovely girl rats (Luna and CC) and a puppy Finn! I am keen to transfer my animal loving nature towards your furry (or otherwise) children! I have owned many dogs through my time around animals big and small, I will attach some pictures of my previous pups down below! In my early years I owned a lovely pony called Rio, which involved early mornings and late nights of TLC. I own my own vehicle as well as a range of dog seat belt sizes, so if your dog enjoys time at the beach or would just enjoy some new scenery I can accommodate that too! No ask is too much! I work part time Wednesday to Saturday 9-5:30 so anything before or after those hours works great! Monday, Tuesday and Sunday I am fully flexible for you! Due to me and partner having small animals in my home for your pets safety and theirs I am only able to pet sit over night in your home, or if your animal is okay being on their own, and you just need me to pop by for potty breaks, walks or feeding/medication, I can do that too!
“Judit and her lovely family made my dogs so welcome. They really looked after them and we received regular updates, photos and videos and it was so reassuring to see them having such a lovely time. I would definitely recommend them 100% and would definitely use them again in the future. Thank you guys :) xx”
“Words can’t say how happy I was with Chester’s care. It truly was home from home. I could see that he was treated as one of the family including the children. I liked that he could cuddle on the sofa in the evening with Jodie as he does with me at home and he had the freedom of the house. I would 100% recommend her. fabulous family environment”
“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.”
“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.”

About: I am fortunate to have been around dogs most of my life, naming bichon frise, poodles and cockapoo as only a small example of the dogs that I have had exposure to. As a dog owner I understand the worry and concern of leaving your dog in someone else’s company and therefore what sets me apart is that I am more than happy to provide you with regular updates whilst you are away. Your dog will be treated as my own whilst I look after them, providing them with the utmost care and attention. I also own a Cockapoo and so they will also have a playmate should they wish to socialise! I currently work full-time however my weekends are spent at home relaxing and taking my dog for walks and so I am available for caring for your dog and boarding on a Friday and Saturday night. My back garden has plenty of room for the dogs to run around in and is also fully enclosed. I own a Cockapoo to keep your dog company should they wish to socialise. I will treat your dog as my own however also happy to follow your wishes if you don’t want the dogs on beds / sofas etc.
