Top-rated Elmbridge house sitters
“Lara is great. My cat often gets anxious when we leave him. However when we came back this time he was nice and relaxed. The cat gave Lara a 5* review”
“Joana is a wonderful lady who took care of my 11yr old German Shepherd. She made sure he had lots of walks, sent me pictures and spent quality time with him throughout, which I knew through her pictures and communication with me. She comes across as being a very caring and kind individual with a love for animals, which I appreciated very much. I'm very thankful to her.”
“Hanna was exceptional throughout and the dogs were very comfortable around her. Communication was constant and she gave me that important peace of mind that I was looking for. Would recommend her to anyone.”
“Eve is the best with our two English bulldog puppies, very reliable and quick to respond, and always sending updates while she’s with our puppies. I know our puppies can get crazy sometimes, but Eve handles them like a pro, takes them for big walks, and the girls are always happy to see her. Highly recommend Eve!!”
“Leah was great with Dingo. We arranged a meet & greet beforehand and she took the time to ask questions about his routine and training so I knew he was in good hands. Through the day Leah checked in and I could see Dingo was very relaxed in her company. I came home to a really happy and tired dog!”
“I honestly cannot recommend Roxana highly enough. She did an amazing job of looking after my dog Lola, she sent me lots of photo & video updates, which kept my mind at rest during my short break away. When I got home my house was SO tidy, Roxana had vacuumed & everything was so tidy, it was lovely to come home to. Lola was happy & tired, she'd clearly had an amazing time. Thanks so much Roxana, you're a super star...!! x”
“Can’t thank Hayley and Yuri enough. We met before they looked after the dogs and they took note of their characters and were very understanding of Fudge who is nervous around new people and takes time to warm up. Peanut took to them straight away which is a great sign. Fudge will get there! They were both really friendly, calm and great communication, very responsive and provided updates and photos whilst I was away. Finding people you can trust with your dogs isn’t always easy and knowing that I can rely on them makes going away a lot easier. I have booked them again, so thanks both”
“Rohan has been a great dog sitter whenever he is home from Uni. Stanley was really excited to see Rohan again and went straight to his toy basket! I highly recommend Rohan as a dog sitter, he is very responsible and fun.”
“Bonnie had a great day with Alison, lots of walks and cuddles!”
About: With over five years of experience caring for everything from energetic puppies to wise old cats, I bring genuine love, calm confidence, and total reliability to every pet I meet. Whether it’s playful pups, or senior companions needing a gentler pace, I adapt with care and instinct. Pet parents often say they can relax completely knowing their furry family is in safe, loving hands—and that’s exactly how it should be. I treat every animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I’m currently a third-year uni student and home for the holidays, so I have plenty of flexibility during the day and evenings. I only take on bookings I can give my full attention to, and I’ll always work around what’s best for your pet’s routine. Whether it’s early morning feeds, midday cuddles, or evening check-ins, I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to adapt. I always treat a pet owner’s home with the same respect and care I give their pet. I know how important it is to maintain a safe, calm, and familiar environment—especially for cats and dogs who thrive on routine. I follow every instruction carefully, keep things clean and secure, and make sure pets feel relaxed and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to feeding times, giving medication, or just offering quiet companionship, I take pride in being someone pet owners can trust completely
“Richard was right on time and sent us lots of updates throughout the day. Dolly was in a lazy mood, but Richard followed her under the table to get her collar on and get outside for a walk. I would definitely recommend Richard and will be getting back in touch with him for future sittings”
“Lauren was wonderful with our 16 month old cockapoo. He warmed to her right away and had a great day with her. Lauren shared regular updates, took him on a good walk and gave him lots of cuddles. Will definitely rebook! :)”
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by many animals, I got my 1st puppy age 7 and have looked after dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, guinea-pigs and chickens. I have walked, and looked after neighbours animals including cats and dogs for many years. I am currently working part time, in the afternoons. I am able to care for your dog in the mornings and full time on the weekends, including overnight stays in my home. I have a fenced/ walled garden which is very secure. I have one very gentle cavapoo and two cats to keep your dog company. ( the cats may not be much company 😉)
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and I have my own Golden Retriever who is 12 years old, who is my absolute world. I know that every dog owner loves their dog with their entire heart and I would want to ensure that I provide that same love, care and compassion that they receive from their owners. I know how important it is that both the owners and the dog feels safe and at ease, and I will always ensure each dog and their individual needs are considered and prioritised. I know the importance of finding someone who not only the owners feel safe with, but the dog bonds with and feels comfortable with. I have dog sat privately in the past and have lots of experience with dog walking and one on one time with all breeds of dogs. I currently have lots of free time in my schedule, the only day which I have limited availability is Saturday. Apart from that I am extremely flexible in the weekday and on Sunday where I am able to accommodate and provide care/walks/sitting from 11:30am until late evenings. I am happy working late into the evening if owners want to enjoy an evening out as well. I will provide many tummy rubs, cuddles and a sense of emotional and physical safety when looking after your dog in your home. I am able to adjust any environmental barriers in people’s home to ensure the dogs safety is prioritised.
About: I have grown up around dogs and horses, so feel comfortable with animals of all sizes. I’m patient with senior dogs and have experience in training puppies offering gentle guidance when needed. Whether it’s keeping a dog on a lead for safety or providing extra love and attention to make your pup feel truly at home, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Your dog will enjoy personalised care, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe and loved. I have easy access to Bushy and Home park, them being right on my doorstep, as well as a towpath along the river. I enjoy big walks and a dog by my side only improves this. I currently work from home Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and have a flexible day routine. I’m just a short walk from Bushy Park and Home park which I regularly walk in to break up my days working from home. I will endeavour to make your dog feel as at home as possible if they are staying with me. I’m more than happy to adjust my care depending on what your dog is already used to and I’m open to discussion for your individual needs.
“Olena stepped in last minute when our dog sitter had pulled out - she was professional and made me immediately feel confident leaving her with Bennie ! She kept me up to date with photos and videos - will definitely be booking her again !”
About: I have had both dogs and cats throughout my whole life. This combined with my professional experience means I am happy to care for all animals! I’m currently have some time off over the summer before I start my job in mid-September so I am very flexible at the moment ! I am a responsible and trustworthy individual. I have experience working/caring for dogs and cats with many different requirements so I am capable of adapting my care to animals with different needs.
About: Though I don't have a dog at the moment, I grew up with a dog in the family and have been frequently called upon to look after the dogs of my families, friends, neighbours - even my landlord at times! I love spending quality time giving the dogs lots of attention. I also like to reinforce training, such as by practicing commands or discouraging problem behaviours. I work remotely and on a flexible schedule, so morning and evenings are quite open for me. Weekends are also generally free, and I particularly enjoy spending time hiking or being outdoors so having a dog to to accompany me makes it even more fun. When I'm out on walks with the dogs, I generally prefer routes with more space and quiet areas; I generally avoid tight sidewalks or crowded areas if possible to ensure they don't get nervous. I generally don't do off-lead unless it's in an enclosed park with no strangers (people or animals) around. When at home, I follow house rules to the letter - you can trust I won't be swayed by puppy-eyes if they know they aren't allowed on the couch!
About: I've taken care of many foster dogs, so I'm used to different character and breeds. I've worked at a doggy daycare as well as a boarding kennel, so I'm very experienced with dogs. I love all dogs and can even include some training for them! I'm currently unemployed so I have a lot of time, 7 days a week. The only time I'd be away from the dog is when I'm at the gym for an hour or two. I will spend a lot of time with the dogs, and can even include some training if needed. I'm a calm person and love spending time with dogs whether it's playing, training or just cuddling!
About: We regularly look after a 7 year old golden retriever for a family friend which involves regular walks, feeding and bathing. We love to give her lots of attention and play time! We have been trusted to look after her when the family are away for long periods of time on holiday on a regular basis. My partner and I currently work full-time but we have days where we work from home to take your dogs out on walks, drop in for feeding or play time! This usually includes Monday, Wednesday and Thursdays and we’re also flexible at the weekends. In the weekdays where we do not work from home, we are available for dogs walks or drop ins in the evenings from 7pm - 9pm. Doggy day care is available at your home on Wednesdays and the weekends. We are also able to dog sit at your home overnight as we do regularly with the golden retriever, we are unable to accept dogs at our home as we currently live in a small shared annex. We are able to care for your dog at your home in whatever way works best for your dog. We could use a crate if needed. We do not own any other dogs but would love to keep your doggy company

I always feel completely at ease knowing Tia is in her care, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Josephine to anyone seeking a responsible and animal-loving pet sitter.”
