“Peaches had the most wonderful time with Sandra whilst we moved house. We were kept updated daily and have already booked her next stay! Not sure Peaches wanted to come home!”
“Charlie had the best time with Harry and his family. He came home very content and clearly had a great long walk & play time! Harry took the time to find out all about Charlie to ensure he had a comfortable stay. Communication is great and we feel at ease knowing our dog is in safe hands. We have more stays planned!”
“Buttercup had the most wonderful time with Teresa on her first-ever non-family overnight boarding experience. She was so well looked after and I received fantastic photos of her enjoying herself.”
“I am very happy to have found Kristina and Nick, they are both lovely and I knew I would feel comfortable leaving Phoebe with them - which is a big thing for me - I am very fussy about who I trust to look after my fur baby 🐾 Good communication and regular updates. Phoebe was well cared for and I have booked again! Thank you 😊”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!! From our initial meeting, it was obvious Ludo loved her, which immediately put me at ease. She has so much experience with animals, both professionally and personally, and it really shows. I received regular updates throughout the weekend, so I never had to worry. I actually felt a bit guilty picking him up because he was clearly having such a great time!😂 I will certainly be booking with her again and would highly recommend Wendy ☺️”
“Amazing experience, we felt Ella was in safe and loving hands. Before Ella went to stay, Suey sent over a form to get to know Ella. During the stay we had several updates every day of what she was up to. She looked like she had a great time! This enabled us to relax and enjoy our holiday knowing Ella was with such caring and dog focussed people.”
“Lijo and his family were great. They watched Lola and Nalu for us ad Lond administered Nalu’s medicine and eye drops as she scratched her eye unexpectedly two days before boarding. They kept us up to date with photos and videos during the pups’ stay. We are grateful for their care of our doggies! Thank you again!”
“We couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after Sparky. May took incredible care of her and kept us updated throughout the stay with photos, videos and messages. Sparky clearly loved her time with May and looked so happy and settled in every update we received. May really understood what she needed and was very accommodating to Sparky's habits. We are so grateful for everything she did for Sparky and would recommend her to everybody, especially those looking for somebody with a great understanding of dogs and experience caring for elderly dogs. Thank you May!!”
“Chelle responded quickly to a last minute weekend booking, welcomed my dog into her lovely home, was great with communication and updates, and most importantly I picked up a happy and tired dog! Thank you.”
“Jane is great! She saved my trip and very kindly agreed to look after my two dogs last minute after someone else canceled. Jane's place is perfect for short and long term dog sitting - there is a dedicated place for them in the house and plenty of space in the garden to run around. Her retriever is gorgeous and super friendly. Jane sent me messages every morning and video updates during the day. When we came to pick them up, they didn't want to leave!😊”
“Terry was fantastic - took great care to make sure Ted had a good week with him, including asking questions beforehand about Ted’s likes & dislikes, and taking him on lots of great walks. Ted bonded really well with Terry, and it was good to know he was being so well cared for while I was away.”
“Jess was a great sitter. She made Orion feel at home. Orion suffered from separation anxiety white there, Jess communicated very well to make Orion feel comfortable. She kept me updated regularly and that made me feel very comfortable. If you looking for a sitter that will give your pet a home away from, book Jess. I'll definitely be booking her again.”
“Frankie had a great few days with Fern while we were on holiday! Fern was very attentive and responsive, and it was lovely to see all the photos of their walks etc throughout the week. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a dogsitter, and will book again. Thank you!!”
“Bibiana is a fantastic dog sitter! She is very professional and loves animals. She took great care of my little dachshund during the Christmas holidays, and my dog was very happy. I recommend Bibiana to anyone looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter.”
“Lucy had a great time! We appreciated seeing videos of how she was doing. Especially the updates of her on her walks, she seems very content (& snoozy) afterwards. Thank you for having her :)”
“Dora was great with our miniature schnauzer Tess. Good communication at the start of the booking and then all the way through with regular updates on how Tess was doing and what she was up to. She was happy for a pre-visit to help Tess and us feel more comfortable ahead of the actual stay. Dora really did look after Tess and we would definitely use her again.”
“Rocio was wonderful with our 3year old, Jujube! She was very kind, patient, and caring towards Jujube and helped him quickly feel at home in her space. Rocio provided frequent updates and photos, which put ours mind at ease while we were traveling.”

“Gemma is the absolute best! My cat Charlie adores her and she is super communicative, clean and tidy. Would highly recommend. She has cat sit for me three times now and will always try and book her before anyone else.”
“I would HIGHLY recommend Alison. Great communication, was able to take a holiday knowing everything was in hand, she was very caring with the animals and went above and beyond. Will be using Alison again in the future. Thanks for looking after everyone.”
“Marie was so lovely with our cat Binx! She made sure he had plenty of cuddles, playtime, and sent plenty of pictures and updates. I also really love that she allowed Binx the space to come up to her first and become more comfortable on his time. That let me know that she truly cares for animals! Will definitely be booking with her in the future 😊”
“Kashif took care of my cat when I was away on holiday. Mini is very shy, and I was happy to see how quickly she warmed up to her new cat sitter. Kashif sent regular updates with fotos. My arrival date was not clear until the last minute and he was very accommodating. I can warmly recommend Kashif and will certainly book him again if he is available.”
“Sophie was great. My cat Tilly completely agrees, and has told me how much she enjoyed being looked after by her. Plenty of nice updates and photos - altogether a good experience!”
“Emma was fantastic, she gave great updates with photos and details of each visit. We will certainly be asking Emma back to look after our cat Loki as they seem to have quickly made friends. It’s great to be able to go away and know Loki will be well looked after, thank you”
“Danielle has been wonderful with our little Charlie. He looked very happy and well looked after when I came back from a long holiday. I am certainly going to ask Danielle to look after our fur baby again in the future!🙂”
About: My first pet was a cat and cats hold a special place in my heart, I currently own an 8 year old cat, given to my son. I always stay on top of his cat litter and have nursed him back from a big operation after he was hit by a car. I love spending time with him, playing and petting him.
About: Hi! I’m a friendly and reliable animal lover who has had cats all my life, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. I currently have two 8-year-old British Shorthair cats who are brothers and I’m used to different personalities and routines. Whether your cat is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind!
“Philippa and David were great cat sitters. Very easy to communicate with and looked after our cat wonderfully whilst we were away, providing regular updates and pictures and giving him lots of attention during the visits. Would highly recommend.”
About: I've grown up with dogs and been around dogs for almost all of my life. Until recently owned a 12 year old cocker spaniel called Tigger. I'm a keen Cani Cross Runner and Tigger was a great running dog, he absolute loved it, so I'm trying to help more dogs be active. A healthy active dog is a dog that will have a longer healthy life and a lot of dogs don't get the exercise they need. I'd love to help change that. 😊 I'm available almost all the time when I'm not travelling and happy to work around your schedule with enough notice. Let's have a chat about your needs. If you would like me to try running with your dog the following apllies: I would need to take your dog out for a walk or two first to learn about their habits and needs. Then if they've not tried Cani Cross before we would need to take it slowly as there's a lot to learn for both me and your dog about how we run together. I'm happy to answer any questions you have about this as well, so do let me know and if you'd like to come along as well that's even better!
About: Although my main experience is with dogs, I have cared for cats belonging to neighbours, friends and family over the years. I understand how important it is to respect their space and routines, and I always take time to make sure they feel comfortable and secure. I’m confident with feeding, playtime and companionship, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions for medication or care. My calm, patient nature as a teacher helps me adapt quickly to each cat’s personality, whether they are shy or sociable.
About: I love animals (but everyone on here says that don't they!) I also have real hands-on experience dealing with rescue dogs that had a bad start so maybe a little 'minxy' in their behaviours. I had a dog as a kid and have one now with a myriad of 'quirky' behaviors. I've taken online courses in Dog Behaviours and Zoopharmacognosy (self-medication in the animal kingdom) so you know I have an avid interest in the general well-being of all animals. I will be available for daytime sits in your home, drop ins and evening sits from August. I can work from home three days a week so am happy for short mid week sits as well as long as you have a good wifi/internet signal! I have a fenced garden and 1 dog, I will care for your pet however you instruct me to but have experience crating and making up games as and when needed. I can also assist with basic puppy training and have dog reactivity experience.

“Sandra had Ria for a long day while I was working in London and was absolutely fantastic - professional, well organised, super communication. Ria loved her stay so much she didn't want to leave when I collected her. I felt at all times that Ria was in safe hands and being well looked after and I wouldn't hesitate to use Sandra's services again or recommend her to anyone else.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were lucky enough to come across Fern and Dougie, her GoldenDoodle. Honey, our Cockerpoo, had a great time, and it was super seeing the pictures of their adventures. We have no hesitation in recommending Fern, and hope to book Honey in for boarding later in the year.”
“Brendon was great with chubs - he came home and slept the entire evening so must’ve had lots of stimulation! Thanks so much, and for all of the updates, would recommend for anyone :)”
“Charlie loves spending time with Harry and his family. They take such good care of him and we know that he is in safe hands when he visits, and often an adventure has already been planned. They clearly adore him, and want him to feel safe and have lots fun on his stay. Charlie has now stayed a couple of times and is so excited when he sees them - you can’t get a better review than that!”
About: We have both grown up with dogs that we have trained, lived and recently lost. We can work from home or have a dog-friendly office if owners are comfortable with that My partner works as a nurse so is home some days during the week. I can WFH whenever needed and also have a dog-friendly office. While we do have the odd weekly hobby, we are mostly only out for an hour or 2 and typically one of us is in the house at any time. We have a fully fenced garden and live in a lovely countryside village which is perfect to take dogs for a walk. We do have a small cat who we are gradually introducing to dogs, so we do ask that your dog is cat friendly. Right now we have no stair gate so the dog will have full roam of the house.

About: I have had dogs my entire life as my mother used to breed as I got older I used to help her. I have always owned a dog since the age of 13 and I am very confident around big dogs as well as being comfortable looking after puppies. I have experience with my own dogs in their senior years, administering medicine and also have trained my own puppies.

I can care for your pets in your home or take dogs out for walks. I do have my own dog and cat and am not currently offering to look after your pets at my own home at the moment, if this is something you are interested in I would first need to get to know your dog.
“Chubby always seems excited to go to Damarys, she keeps me updated and seems very knowledgable and aware of dog behaviour which is great! He’s always knackered when he comes back to us too so he must have lots of fun!”

About: I have always had dogs in the family growing up. When I was a toddler and small child, my family had Mutley, a rescue spaniel, who was also known as Houdini! Following his passing, we had a small terrier, Alfie, who lived until he was 18! Then, at the turn of 2020, I rescued two Greek street dogs, Buddy and Bea, with my sister - they’re now 5 years old. Buddy and Bea often spend time with my parents who have vowed they don’t want another dog.. but love Buds & Bea! We had Alfie from a puppy and I was involved with his training with my father. Buddy and Bea were about 6 months old when they made their way to the UK. With my sister, I trained them at home in the garden - this was both toilet training and tricks! I work full time but predominantly from home, going into the office once or twice a week depending on what I have on. This means I have lots of time at home with the dogs and can take them out morning, lunch and noon. Generally, I play netball on a Saturday and Sunday but this only requires me to be out of the house for a few hours. So, those who have an animal staying with us, they must be ok being left alone for a couple of hours at a time. I have a totally enclosed and fenced garden with no escape route! This was essential as Bea often likes to find a way out! Whilst looking after your fur baby, I’d have Buddy and Bea stay with my parents so that your pet has my sole attention and focus. We have space to bring a crate if that’s preferred and we can discuss any sleeping arrangements which work for your little one.
“It was lovely to have a friendly face turn up to walk Teddy, and he really enjoyed his walks with Eli. Teds came back happy, and snoozed all afternoon. Her communication was fast, and she was flexible with her time when a last minute appointment came up. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Eli and will happily book her again!! Thank you xxx”

About: I have been caring for pets for 20+ years, including my own dog and looking after neighbours' and friends' dogs. I have experience with various breeds such as Chow Chows, Labradors, Jack Russell Terriers, Border Terriers, Cocker Spaniels, Dachshunds, English Bulldogs, Shih Tzu mixes, and Romanian rescues. I have trained my own puppy and am comfortable administering medication. I can handle multiple pets and have dealt with challenging behaviours, including helping my reactive rescue dog overcome her fears. While I don't have specific experience with special needs pets, my adaptability as a teacher allows me to provide excellent care. I can provide references from previous pet owners I have cared for. I have recently returned to work as a full-time teacher at a school in Girton. Therefore, I will not be at home during the day. However, I am still offering sitting services in the evenings and on weekends. Additionally, if you are comfortable with it, I am happy to have your pet stay at my house during the day. During the school holidays I will be able to stay at yours or have your pet at mine, where I will be at home during the day. During term time, you live somewhere with easy access to Girton, I am happy to house sit then too. I work full time, leaving for work at 7am but I do have a bit of time in the mornings. I also finish at 4pm so I also have time after work during the week. My weekends are quite free so I’d be more than happy to help out then, too! Additionally, I am more than happy to look after your furry friends during the school holidays. I ensure that the home is pet-proofed and secure, minimising any potential hazards. I follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and medication, maintaining their routine as closely as possible. I provide plenty of love, attention, and playtime to keep the pets happy and engaged. Additionally, I maintain open communication with the pet owner, providing regular updates and photos to give them peace of mind. We have a wonderful large garden which is secure as well as plenty of fantastic walking routes from our front door!
“I approached Emma to walk my senior shih tzu last minute after not being able to find a dog walker to cover the days my usual one was away. From the moment I messaged, she made the effort to meet me and my dog, gathering the necessary information she’d need before the scheduled walks. Her quick replies, detailed reports and punctuality those days she had walked my dog was so reassuring whilst I was away at work. I can’t thank her enough for going far and beyond to ensure my little one had her mid-day toiletting and exercise, even if it meant getting soaked in the pouring rain! If you want someone reliable who cares for your pet, Emma is the person to ask!”
About: I am a patient, caring and experienced sitter and dog walker. I will look after your dog/dogs as if they were my own. I can do some light training with them, including confidence building.

After that, I worked at a local doggy daycare for two and a half years. I then worked at a local dog groomers and now just do boarding and walking. I have taken a doggy first aid course and have plenty of experience and am confident walking and caring for reactive and nervous dogs. I have also taken care of, and fostered, dogs with separation anxiety. DBS checked, Licenced (AW107) and insured. I am a full time dog boarder and dog walker so I am about most of the time. Dogs will get plenty of walks and playtime with me and my friendly Chihuahua. Dogs in my care will be treated like my own and allowed on sofas and in bed with me at night if need be! My garden is fully enclosed with six foot fences.
“Betty had another great walk with William. When he arrived she was very excited and went running up to see him, which was very reassuring. He kept me updated throughout the walk and sent some photos. Another great service.”

“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!! From our initial meeting, it was obvious Ludo loved her, which immediately put me at ease. She has so much experience with animals, both professionally and personally, and it really shows. I received regular updates throughout the weekend, so I never had to worry. I actually felt a bit guilty picking him up because he was clearly having such a great time!😂 I will certainly be booking with her again and would highly recommend Wendy ☺️”
“We couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after Sparky. May took incredible care of her and kept us updated throughout the stay with photos, videos and messages. Sparky clearly loved her time with May and looked so happy and settled in every update we received. May really understood what she needed and was very accommodating to Sparky's habits. We are so grateful for everything she did for Sparky and would recommend her to everybody, especially those looking for somebody with a great understanding of dogs and experience caring for elderly dogs. Thank you May!!”
“Chelle responded quickly to a last minute weekend booking, welcomed my dog into her lovely home, was great with communication and updates, and most importantly I picked up a happy and tired dog! Thank you.”
“Jane is great! She saved my trip and very kindly agreed to look after my two dogs last minute after someone else canceled. Jane's place is perfect for short and long term dog sitting - there is a dedicated place for them in the house and plenty of space in the garden to run around. Her retriever is gorgeous and super friendly. Jane sent me messages every morning and video updates during the day. When we came to pick them up, they didn't want to leave!😊”
“Terry was fantastic - took great care to make sure Ted had a good week with him, including asking questions beforehand about Ted’s likes & dislikes, and taking him on lots of great walks. Ted bonded really well with Terry, and it was good to know he was being so well cared for while I was away.”
“Jess was a great sitter. She made Orion feel at home. Orion suffered from separation anxiety white there, Jess communicated very well to make Orion feel comfortable. She kept me updated regularly and that made me feel very comfortable. If you looking for a sitter that will give your pet a home away from, book Jess. I'll definitely be booking her again.”
“Frankie had a great few days with Fern while we were on holiday! Fern was very attentive and responsive, and it was lovely to see all the photos of their walks etc throughout the week. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a dogsitter, and will book again. Thank you!!”
“Bibiana is a fantastic dog sitter! She is very professional and loves animals. She took great care of my little dachshund during the Christmas holidays, and my dog was very happy. I recommend Bibiana to anyone looking for a kind and reliable dog sitter.”
“Lucy had a great time! We appreciated seeing videos of how she was doing. Especially the updates of her on her walks, she seems very content (& snoozy) afterwards. Thank you for having her :)”
“Rocio was wonderful with our 3year old, Jujube! She was very kind, patient, and caring towards Jujube and helped him quickly feel at home in her space. Rocio provided frequent updates and photos, which put ours mind at ease while we were traveling.”
“Marcus and Cheryl were wonderful carrying for Goldi. From the first moment we met for greetings Goldi settled very well and was more than welcome. Marcus and Cheryl took care for every small detail, were extremely warm and loving for whole the period. Goldi got the best experience he could, he ate well, walk a lot and all those photos were heart warming! I will recommend to anyone to use Marcus and Cheryl as boarding for your dog, absolutely astonishing care and time with them. Thank you so much for everything! They were perfect for Goldi and let us have one less worries. Best luck with your service and I will absolutely be grateful to use it more in the near future.”
“We’re so thankful for Claire and Ross and Syd! Nalu had the best time with them and was well and tired when she came home from so much fun! They gave us updates and pictures each day which we loved. We will definitely be booking with them again soon!”
“What a great experience- our little fluff ball had a wonderful time and we enjoyed regular updates, videos and pics. We will definitely use Tahiana again and would highly recommend, recommend, recommend!”
“Can’t recommend Danuta and her family highly enough - they sent loads of beautiful pictures of really wonderful walks, to the point where we were worried Charlie would want to stay there! Will definitely use again, thank you very much!”
