“Thank you Leah for looking after Dudley for the first time - he was very relaxed when I got home 🐶❤️ Leah is a great sitter. Communicates really well prior to the sitting and kept me updated on her first day with Dudley with messages and photos. The house was spotless when I got back and wouldn’t even have known anyone had been here. Would highly recommend. Have booked a second sitting for Leah to stay overnight to look after Dudley. Thank you 🙏”


“I would thoroughly recommend Alice for house sitting your pets. Alice came to the house prior to us going on holiday to meet the dogs. I received photos whilst we were away and updates twice a day which was very reassuring and I would not hesitate to book Alice if she wanted to look after the dogs again”

“Lilli came to stay at ours for the weekend to look after our Boston Terrier Spartacus. He tends to snub a lot of people but he bonded with her right away… he absolutely loves her! She sent us updates and pictures throughout the stay which were so appreciated. Our home was beautifully kept too. It’s been such a blessing finding Lilli and we look forward to seeing her again very soon when we go off on our next adventure. Thank you so much Lilli!”


“Monika was excellent with our Maine Coon Nancy, who’s usually a little terror. She has an astute understand of animals - we came back to a very calm, happy cat and a tidy home after a week away in Sardinia!”


“Tasha has been brilliant from first conversations to the end of our 2 bookings. She welcomed a meet and greet which went well. Communication was always timely and Tasha was great at taking our routine with Skye on board and followed all instructions perfectly. Skye and Tasha got on really well and had a nice mix of playtimes and chill times. Tasha updated us nicely with pictures whilst we were out which was reassuring and lovely to hear. We would have no issues booking Tasha again.”


“Jade looked after our three dogs while we went away for the weekend to a wedding. We have two Lurchers, one of which is quite nervous and a Cockapoo. I could tell instantly that Jade is a natural with dogs and I knew that my bunch were going to be happy with her. We had a relaxing weekend away because Jade kept in touch and sent us photos and updates which was great! I would not hesitate to recommend Jade as a dog and house sitter and would definitely ask her back again!”


“Tom and Emma were perfect, conscientious house guests, leaving everything clean and tidy. More importantly they got on well with Maggie who was relaxed, happy and obedient in their care. I would certainly recommend Tom and Emma.”

“Alice is awesome person! Our dog is super happy! She is usually don’t go for a walks with strangers but with Alice she had 2 walks and we are really pleased! Thank you very much Alice for all of the effort! ❤️”


About: We have always had dogs in the family so grew up up taking care of our family pets which continues to do this day looking after any of the family dogs, walking them, dog sitting etc. I always try my best to keep dogs entertained, active and with plenty of company (if they want it ofcourse!) I work Monday - Friday but spend a few of these days working from home. I am always off on the weekends so am always happy to lend a hand then! I have a spacious and cozy flat with space for the dog to feel at home and have a shared garden for the building. We have plenty of great spots nearby for walks!

About: I've looked after all sorts of pets, from axolotls to kittens, fish to bulldogs. As well as my lovely, gentle old girl, a staff/boxer. I'm very reliable. If I say I'll be there I will be there. I am a self-employed programmer so I am completely flexible. I can work any time that is needed so it lets me be very adaptable. I have looked after a multitude of reptiles, fish and two cats in a single home for a two month period full time and, at the other end of the spectrum, 'feed and a fuss' pop-ins for loved pets around the area.

About: Having grown up with dogs my whole life, and been devoted to their wellbeing I decided to start my business Playful Pups aims to lend a helping hand with your beloved Doggo’s when life gets in the way. With two dogs myself, Woody my Cockapoo and Dexter my Pug, I know just how my clients expect their pooches to be treated! From muddy group walks in the woods, to sandy, early morning beach walks, or maybe a gentle stroll on the seafront we’ve got you covered. I offer morning group walks daily, lunchtime let outs, and solo walks every day - Monday to Friday I pride myself in safety and the quality of my work, With my fully equipped van, with safe travel cages, a Dog first aid kit, i'm all set to keep your pooches safe. I also use apple air tags from time to time to track dogs off the lead. as well as all of this I have an endless supply of clean towels for those muddy paws, treats for rewards, and our mud daddy water tank for rinsing those grubby paws after our adventures!

About: I’ve had all kinds of pets growing up including 3 cats, 6 rabbits, and a handful of smaller pets. After that my family decided to introduce our golden doodle. We have had her for almost 13 years now. I’ve had lots of experience looking after her and have also helped friends and family look after their furry friends too! I now live alone in a studio flat with no pets, so I am able to help look after yours! I currently work part-time as a bartender on weekends, so Friday and Saturday evenings/overnights I am not available. Early Saturday and Sunday mornings I am unavailable as well as I finish work late the night before. Any weekdays however, I am completely free! Leaving your fur baby in the care of someone else takes a lot of trust, to help achieve this I am more than happy to share any details/photos about the environment provided for them. Before leaving your pet in my care I will always make sure to communicate with you properly and have all the information about your pet to ensure they are in the best care for them as possible.
