About: I have five years of experience caring for a wide range of dogs, offering services including walks, day sitting, and overnight stays. Through this, I’ve become confident handling different breeds, sizes, and personalities, always making sure each dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. As a dog owner of two gorgeous labradors myself, I understand how important a trustworthy sitter is, and I always treat every dog as if they were part of my own family. 🐾 Fully insured and DBS checked 🤍 As a full time biomedical science student, I have a flexible schedule that fits around my studies. Being away from my own dogs back home, I especially value the companionship, and recognise the importance of caring for your dog as I would my own 💕 When caring for dogs in their own home, I pay close attention to instructions, in order to maintain your dogs routine to achieve a stress free experience for both you and your pet. On walks, I prioritise safety, while making sure your dog gets the exercise and mental stimulation that they require, whether that is a run around a field, or a gentle stroll around a park. This tailoring means that your pets needs are listened to, so they feel happy and settled while you are away ☺️

About: I believe pets aren’t just animals - they’re family. That’s why everything I do is built around trust, compassion, and genuinely personalised care. I’m an animal lover with a CPD Accredited Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming, Pet Sitting & Dog Walking, offering professional dog walking, pet sitting, puppy and kitten care, and overnight house sitting tailored to suit each pet’s unique personality, age, and individual needs. I have hands-on experience caring for young puppies, senior dogs, and pregnant dogs, and I understand the extra patience, attention, and gentle handling they require. From helping puppies build routines and supporting toilet training, to providing slower-paced, comfort-focused care for older dogs, and calm, attentive support for pregnant dogs, I treat every stage of a pet’s life with the care and respect it deserves. No two pets are the same, which is why I always take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special requirements. I am fully insured and DBS checked, giving you complete peace of mind whether you’re at work, away for the day, or enjoying a holiday. Your pet’s safety, wellbeing, and happiness always come first. Whether your dog needs an energy-burning walk, your senior pet needs gentle companionship, or your puppy or pregnant dog requires extra reassurance and care at home, I offer reliable, loving support you can trust. With regular updates, photos, and open communication, you’ll always know your furry family members are in safe, caring hands. Because for me, it’s not just pet care - it’s care with heart 🐶🐱💛 I work as a full-time dog walker and pet sitter, offering flexible availability from Monday to Sunday, because I understand that your furry friends need love, care, and routine every day of the week - not just weekdays. Dog walks and drop-in visits are available between 7:30am and 7:30pm, allowing for both early starts and evening care to fit around your schedule. House sitting services are arranged on an individual basis and will be discussed in detail with each owner to ensure the best possible care for your home and pets. My aim is to provide reliable, consistent, and stress-free care that works for both you and your pets 🐾💛 The safety, comfort, and wellbeing of every pet in my care is always my top priority. All services are provided in the pet owner’s home or out on walks, allowing pets to remain in familiar surroundings and continue with their normal routines. Before any service begins, I take the time to get to know each pet through an initial meeting and a detailed pet information form. This helps me understand feeding routines, exercise needs, medical requirements, behavioural traits, and any special care instructions. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and pregnant dogs, and I adapt my care to suit each pet’s individual needs - from gentle handling and slower walks to increased supervision and reassurance. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I treat both the pets and the property with the utmost respect. I carefully follow all instructions provided, maintain home security, and aim to keep routines as consistent as possible to reduce stress and anxiety. During house sitting services, pets receive companionship, attention, and calm, reliable care while their home remains secure. For dog walking services, I assess each dog individually, use secure leads and harnesses, choose safe walking routes, and closely monitor behaviour at all times. Walks are tailored to each dog’s age, health, and energy levels to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. I am fully insured and DBS checked, and I maintain clear, open communication with owners throughout every service, including regular updates and photos. My aim is to build long-term trust with both pets and their owners by providing reliable, compassionate care in a safe and familiar environment.
About: With our 1-year-old Sprocker Spaniel, we understand the importance of both mental and physical stimulation to keep dogs happy and healthy. We’ve cared for a variety of breeds, from big to small and from high-energy to more relaxed pups, tailoring our care to suit each dog’s needs. 🐾 Our daily routine is active and full of fun! We take Arlo on morning and evening walks, adding up to around 3 hours of exercise each day. Whether it’s exploring the fields or running along the beach, we make sure he gets plenty of fresh air, playtime, and stimulation — and your pup will be right there alongside him. 🐾 We have a large, secure fenced garden for safe outdoor play, and inside our home there’s plenty of space to relax. Plus plenty of time to cater for your dogs needs.
About: I offer a loving, kind and attentive home for your dog/s to come and enjoy whilst you are away with my equally as dog loving partner Matthew so your pup will never be short of company.We have plenty of toys, bones and treats, exciting walks and trips out on a weekend to offer. We have a client form we ask new clients to fill out to assess the dog’s needs and requirements to ensure we have their details to hand at all times. We will also send many pictures and videos to keep your mind at ease whilst you are away. We love looking after animals and we are both very experienced in dog behaviours and can replicate positive training with your pup. They will receive natural treats, fresh fruits and veg (should you/the dog wish) as a welcome to our home. In the summer period, we will ensure there is plenty of shade in the garden, full water supply and ice cubes to hand to keep your dog safe in hot weather (that we will hopefully get in the UK!). ———— From Yorkshire terriers to German Shepard’s, Spaniels to Labrador’s - we have experience or a wide range of different breeds, ages, sizes and dog numbers! We have even looked after 5 dogs at once for a whole week! We look forward to meeting you and your doggy/doggies 🐾 I work from home three days a week and I am on a flexible working plan, whereby I can start/finish work at different times. I will be able to offer walking morning, lunch, evening. Matthew typically starts work early mornings but finishes in good time due to self-employment. We have a secure locked back garden with tall fencing and outdoor seating where I can work outside and keep an eye on the doggies playing. We are a 2 minutes walk away from large, quiet park where dogs can be off the lead safely and lots of room for playing fetch should you feel comfortable for off lead walking. We also have access to a vehicle for weekend adventures (weather permitting!). DBS checked ✅ K9 first aid certified ✅ **DISCLAIMER** We will NOT look after dogs from different households at the same time and will look after a maximum of 4 dogs from the same household or who are familiar with each other i.e family/friends dogs. This is because we want your dogs to feel as safe and comfortable as possible and we cannot predict the interactions of dogs who are unfamiliar to each other.
About: I’ve worked in a veterinary environment for the past 6 years on and off, have 2 dogs and 2 cats myself, provide the same level of care like the dogs are my own and can adapt my services to suit you. I can work from home some days and only 10 minutes away from my workplace so can always nip back, have cameras at home so I can watch too. I have a small fenced yard and I am less then 200m away from a nature reserve, so very easy to go for long walks etc
About: I have had many different pets and animals at different stages of my life, so I have a lot of experience looking after different animals, especially dogs. I will be delighted to look after your furry friend overnight, for the day, or just for a walk. Message me for any questions or inquiries you have, and I will do my very best to accommodate any requirements you have to keep your pet happy! I currently work from home, so I will have time to play with them, take them for short walks and attend to their needs. Available Monday to Friday and sometimes during the weekends. I live in the north of Hull, close to Cottingham. Right outside our front door, we have a huge field where you're furry can explore! We also have a medium-sized garden where your pet can have toilet breaks and do its business!

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets has given me a genuine understanding of their different personalities, routines, and individual needs. I've owned a Labrador Retriever and currently have a Working Cocker Spaniel, so I have hands-on experience with both relaxed family dogs and more energetic breeds that require plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I've also had cats throughout my life, giving me a good understanding of feline behaviour and the importance of providing a calm, safe, and stress-free environment. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've looked after dogs and cats for neighbours, friends, and family, including home visits, feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and check-ins while owners have been away. I understand that every pet is unique, which is why I take the time to follow each owner's instructions carefully. Whether it's sticking to a specific feeding schedule, administering medication orally(if required), maintaining exercise routines, or simply providing plenty of love, attention and reassurance; I tailor my care to ensure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well looked after. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is being cared for as if they were my own. I am also fully insured for your peace of mind and carry first aid kit either on me or in the car. I have a flexible schedule, which means I'm available for boarding, drop-in visits, and walks throughout the week, including weekends. This allows me to provide plenty of time, attention, and companionship to the pets in my care, while working around their usual routines. Your pet's wellbeing is always my top priority. This includes feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, medication (where needed), and any special requirements to help them feel comfortable and settled. During warmer weather, I also take extra precautions to keep dogs safe. If temperatures exceed 22°C, I won't take dogs out for walks, as heat can be dangerous. Instead, I'll provide indoor enrichment, play, and plenty of attention, along with access to fresh water and regular comfort breaks in a safe, shaded area where appropriate. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and secure home where pets can relax and feel part of the family while you're away. I live in a house with a large, fully fenced garden, giving dogs a safe outdoor space to play, explore, and enjoy regular toilet breaks. Inside, they'll have plenty of companionship, attention, and a comfortable environment to settle into. I also have a 5-month-old female Working Cocker Spaniel who is friendly, playful, and enjoys the company of other dogs. She has a gentle nature and is also comfortable around cats. I always introduce pets carefully and supervise interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease. I understand that every pet is different, so I'll always follow your instructions regarding routines, boundaries, feeding, exercise, and any special requirements. My aim is to provide the same level of care, patience, and affection that I'd want for my own pet, so you can enjoy complete peace of mind while you're away.
“I can’t recommend Julie enough as a dog sitter! She has been absolutely amazing with my cocker spaniel, Buddy. From the very beginning, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. Buddy warmed to her instantly, and I could tell he felt comfortable and happy in her company. Julie takes him on lovely long walks, making sure he gets all the exercise and stimulation he needs, and she always goes the extra mile to ensure he’s well cared for. I had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such capable and kind hands. It’s clear that Julie not only loves what she does but also understands dogs really well. Buddy came home happy, relaxed, and very well looked after. I feel so lucky to have found her, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Rebecca did an amazing job with our cat. Even though we requested her services at the last minute, she was very accommodating and helpful throughout the booking and meet & greet process. Definitely recommended!”

“Maisie was extremely excellent with my babies ( 3 cats) . My cats are extremely spoiled and are mainly indoor cats ( outside only with supervision). They are also very weary of people, especially my oldest , Olaf who is a big antisocial grump. My two younger cats , Sven and Aurora really adored her and felt comfortable with her. These are some extra things she did that made me feel so comfortable with her and made me love her 1) she always played with my babies, giving them rubs, and even made box castles for them, which the loved! 2) she always tidied their eating area, washed their food bowls and mats and cleaned up any food bits on the floor! 3) she even tidied up my kitchen!!!! Where i kept their packs of dry treats! And always checked their water. 4) I extremely loved that she took lots of pictures of my babies, their food bowls ( before and after she put their food), their litter boxes before and after cleaning ( so i could see their poop), she even changed the litter sand once it got saturated with pee!!! And put in fresh litter! 5) she even cleaned up messes and poop outside the box that Olaf was doing in protest of me not being there . 6) she even asked about Olaf eating, because he was not coming out when she came around ( that really touched me) 7) she was always punctual and efficient 8) She followed all the instructions and went over and beyond) in a great way), i have different types of dry and wet food, with special types for each cat, and she did great! 9) She gave my babies dreamies treats, and won their favour 10) She definitely has a good aura, because my babies really loved her. And best of all, I came back to a clean house, clean litter box and happy well fed babies( Aurora even gor fatter and bigger in my absence!). This is my first time ever using a pet sitter, because I am very protective about my babies and they usually travel with me.. but i must say, Maisie was beyond my expectations, and now I know that I will definitely use her again, and I can now travel without having to take my babies with me. I strongly recommend Maisie! ( but make sure you allow her have availability for me when next I need her 😸😺😻… lots of love from me and my babies- Olaf , Sven and Aurora 💛🩵🧡”

About: I’m experienced in dog care and have always loved being around animals, especially dogs. Unfortunately, due to the demands of being full-time teachers, we’re not currently able to have one of our own.

“Trina has been excellent! I came home to a very chilled cat and a tidy house. It's the first time I have been away and left my cat for so long. She came to meet me and Oren before I went away which put me at ease. Trina sent regular updates and photos of him, which helped me not to worry so much. Will definitely use again the next time I am away!”

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - East Riding of Yorkshire
Corey looked after my boy this weekend for the second time and took such good care of him again! The photos and updates were lovely and kept my mind at ease whilst I was away. Ziggy loved having Corey to play with him and make a fuss of him! I won't hesitate to ask Corey again next time I'm away and I recommend her wholeheartedly. Thank you again Corey! Becky and Ziggy x

Rebecca took very good care of my little cat, Susie. She provided detailed updates and pictures on every visit, so I had no worries about Susie when I was away. Susie can be very shy of strangers but she came and took treats from Rebecca on the first visit! Will definitely ask Rebecca for help next time I go away.
