House Sitting in Eden

“Jenny came to sit for me this week for my dog and cat. She was really lovely, keen to understand all about their routines, likes and dislikes, Jenny sent me pictures and it looked as if my dog was really enjoying her company. He bonded really well with her. Would definitely recommend.”

“It was a pleasure having Dave look after our 2 dogs for the day. We had excellent communication beforehand and everything went very smoothly. Dave sent little updates throughout the day, the dogs were very well cared for with plenty of walks and company.”

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, from cats and dogs to horses and pigs. I’ve house-sat for multiple families, ensuring their pets are well cared for and kept in their usual routines while owners are away. I hold a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management, which gave me in-depth knowledge of animal health, welfare, behaviour, and husbandry across multiple species. Alongside this, I have experience working in a small animal veterinary practice, where I developed strong skills in recognising signs of illness, supporting senior pets, and assisting with general animal care. I am confident with basic medication administration and maintaining consistent routines for puppies and younger dogs. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve regularly cared for my own pets as well as those of family and friends for many years. I am responsible, reliable, and understand the trust involved in caring for both pets and homes. Pet care is my full-time focus. I run my own business caring for dogs and horses, which means I have full control over my schedule and can plan my days around the animals in my care. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet needs active stimulation, structured exercise, or simply calm company, I can tailor my routine to suit their individual needs.

“Morgana was very caring with my puppy when I had to leave him home alone for the first time when I went back to work. She made sure he was well looked after and she sent lots of update pictures too. Would recommend to anyone in the area.”

“Elizabeth was great at looking after Tamu - thank you so much! She was very communicative with me sending messages and pictures regularly, which was very reassuring. She also left the house looking great too. Would happily recommend Elizabeth others.”

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs,, cats, horses, farm animals and Guniea pigs! I am a home loving person, but love to visit new places. I will look after your pets, but also your home. Im good with plants and gardens, messages and deliveries if needbe. I have no family or home ties of my own, so my time with you is dedicated to you. I pride myself on leaving people's homes as clean and tidy as I find them. I am friendly, happy and confident on my own. I have never smoked,drink only ocassionally, and am happy to be at home in the evenings. I am a quiet, calm person. Strict with pets rules, but loving and caring.. i am gentle and happily abide by your care rules and needs. I sold my house a year ago , to take the opportunity to travel to new places both in UK and abroad. I have a base in a friends house whenever I need it and i enjoy travelling to new places. Therefore I have no home commitments. My friend who I stay with has a Boxer so I care for him when I am there. I have owned dogs all my life until my last two rescue girls died and have not replaced them yet so I can travel without worry. I ask people their pet rules,such as walking, feeding and care and adhere to those rules.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly see them as a treasured part of the family. I’ve owned dogs myself and have also cared for many dogs for friends and family over the years. I’m experienced with a variety of breeds and personalities, including hounds, terriers, collies, dachshunds as well as mixed breeds. This has helped me become comfortable adapting to different energy levels, routines, and care needs. I have recently adopted a little cockapoo girl who is my bundle of joy, she is super friendly and loves meeting new dogs. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I will treat your dog like my own, always making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after while in my care. I work from home full time Tuesday through to Friday, which means dogs in my care have plenty of company throughout the day. Because I’m home, I can offer regular toilet breaks, playtime, treats, and lots of cuddles so they never feel lonely. During the day, I have natural downtime where I can feed, play, and spend time with your dog. Dogs will usually enjoy a 45-minute lunchtime walk and a longer walk once I finish work, along with plenty of cuddles and a good old snooze. I will always want to make your dog feel safe and like part of the family whilst staying with me, so I am happy to tailor my approach to your dog. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a quiet, adult-only household with no children, which helps create a calm and relaxed environment for visiting dogs. I also have my own 8-month-old cockapoo, Roxi, who is very friendly and loves meeting new dog friends. She’s sociable, playful, and used to sharing her space with other dogs. The house has a secure, fully enclosed rear garden where dogs can safely go out for fresh air and toilet breaks whenever they need. We’re also lucky to have several parks and green spaces nearby, which are perfect for daily walks and exercise. I always follow each dog’s usual routine as closely as possible and take time to make sure they feel comfortable and settled in my home. Dogs are supervised, given plenty of attention, and treated like part of the family while they stay with me. I’m always happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so you and your dog feel completely comfortable, and I’ll send regular photo and message updates during their stay so you can see how they’re getting on.
