“This was our first holiday away from our pets together, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was communicative, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional, and she completely put our minds at ease. Our pets were so well cared for that it felt like they were hanging out with family — Bei and Jack definitely have a new aunt and uncle status with our pets now! We’re so grateful and would absolutely book again”
“Roxana was amazing! She gave us frequent updates on our pets, took Charlie on loads of walks and they truly adored her. She was also a fantastic guest and left our home in great condition. Thank you SO much Roxana”
“Excellent experience with Charlie and her partner! My dog was perfectly looked after, they were kind, professional and communicated very well, with prompt responses. I was kept updated during the sit with photo updates. I will definitely be asking for their help again. Thank you!”
“Hayley and Yuri were great! We met prior to the sitting so Woody could get to know them which was lovely. Very communicative with a few pictures to keep me informed of their time together. I felt totally at ease leaving Woody with them and would definitely book with them again!”
“Scarlett was fantastic! She came to stay at my house to look after my dog and cat. She treated them as her own giving them lots of fuss and attention . Scarlett was friendly and professional at all times and shared updates while I was away. I felt totally at ease with Scarlett looking after my fur babies and this meant that I could fully relax and enjoy my holiday. I can’t recommend Scarlett enough and I will definitely book Scarlett next time I go away ☺️.”
“Amelia was fantastic with our fur baby, Brodie. First of all, she was excellent at communicating with us from our initial enquiry through to the end of her pet sitting with Brodie. She sent lots of photos, followed instructions perfectly, wasn’t phased by potential rain and managed to get in a nice long walk with Brodie, and again communicated really well. We will definitely call on her again!”
“Lexi was really communicative and looked after Luis and the house really well. He seemed happy when we returned and his feeder was filled and used properly. The house was also left clean and tidy. We’d love to have Lexi look after Luis again soon. Thank you!”
“Karen is a delight and the dogs absolutely love her. She is so capable and natural with them that I felt 100% happy whilst I was away knowing that the dogs would be well cared for and given lots of attention and cuddles. Karen sent many photographs which were so lovely to receive. When we came home, the house was spotless and the dogs seemed so happy. We have already booked Karen again for our ski holiday in February Thank you, Karen.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and my family currently have a 5-year-old cockerpoo named Noodle. Family and friends regularly rely on my fiancé James (shown in pictures) and me to house-sit, so they can relax knowing their pets are well cared for while they’re away. I work remotely from home with occasional office days, which can be planned flexibly around house-sitting bookings. This means I’m home most of the time to provide regular toilet breaks, walks, and plenty of love and attention. Between me and my fiancé James you can be assured that your pet and home will be well looked after and secure! I care for pets in their own home by sticking closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, toilet breaks, playtime, and lots of love. I treat every home with respect and provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“Sally was so excellent - I re booked straight away! She reassured me before and during her stay, sharing updates, photos and checking in regularly. My 10 month puppy loved playing with her and she took him on an amazing walk. I couldn’t recommended the experience more !! Thank you Sally.”
“Luke was brilliant with our rescue Grace. She’s a bit hesitant around men but Luke worked really hard to earn her trust. She was so happy during her evening with Luke and he sent us so many cute pictures! He also made sure to do a meet and greet beforehand. It was a hot day, so Grace couldn’t go for her walk after we finished work. Luke took her for a walk after it cooled down later in the day. Grace isn’t the easiest dog to walk, and we really appreciated that he took her out for a nice walk and sniff around the park. We completely recommend Luke.”
“Beau has been amazing and I would highly recommend. Our dog Dottie was loved and cared for so well whilst we were away. Beau sent us regular updates so we could see how much fun Dottie was having and how relaxed she was. Beau looked after Dottie in our home and we came back to an immaculate house and a very happy Dottie 😊. Massive thank you again to Beau 😊”
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: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover and have had dogs in my life for over 15 years. I previously owned a Labrador, who I cared for throughout her entire life, including her final years when she was bravely battling liver cancer. During that time, I supported her with feeding, medication, comfort, and mobility when she needed extra help. That experience taught me so much about patience, empathy, and giving dogs the love and care they deserve at every stage of life. I work from home when needed, with flexibility for regular breaks, which makes it easy for me to spend plenty of time with dogs throughout the day. I love walking and aim for 10,000 steps every day, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and fun company! I also have every other Friday off and most weekends completely free, which gives me extra time to focus on walks, playtime, and cuddles. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make sure every dog in my care gets the attention, exercise, and love they need. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my company. I’ll take them on walks to get exercise and fresh air, but more importantly, I focus on fun! Playtime, games, and plenty of cuddles are always part of the day, tailored to each dog’s personality and energy level. Whether in my home or theirs, I make sure your pet feels loved, secure, and entertained while you’re away.
“Arrived home to find a very happy and content Arlo having spent the day with Holly. Great communicator before, coming to visit Arlo and getting to know him first and then during with some pictures and updates during the day whilst we were away. Very happy to recommend and use again.”
“Ophelia saved the day for me when I needed veey last minute dog sitting so I could go out for tge evening. Our communication was easy and quick. Ophelia arrived on time and was immediately making great friends with our dogs who seemed to love her! She kept me updated with a photo and then had the unfortunate situation of having to deal with one of my dogs cutting his paw in the garden. She was calm and sensible and Ophelia is mature for her age. I would be delighted to have her come again!”
“I can't recommend Lauren enough. She looked after my dog and cat for the weekend and looked after them like they were her own. She adapted her plans to suit the weather as it was too hot to do all the lovely long walks she had planned, but still manage to entertain my very hyper spaniel. I will definitely use Lauren again, and would recommend her to friends and family too. Thank you Lauren.”
“Leah is a fantastic dog sitter. She looked after Biscuit beautifully, followed all our instructions and sent us lots of beautiful photos and videos while we were out. Biscuit was really happy to see her after our meet and greet a few days before and clearly got lots of pets and attention while we were out! She was clearly very comfortable and happy with Leah and we felt comfortable and confident having Leah in our home. Thank you!”

Roxana looked after Henry very well and also had to deal with him eating a piece of clothing during the night. She quickly understood what had happened and reacted quickly by taking him to the vet. Luckily Henry hadn’t eaten too much clothing for it to cause a problem. But without Roxana’s prompt action it may have ended in a negative outcome one! It is the first time that we have used Roxana and will continue to use her to both dog sit and also to look after Henry for visits and breaks when we need help.
Holly responded quickly to my short notice booking, arrived on time and immediately had Norman trying his best to convince her that he's a very good boy! I'm not sure she was entirely taken in, and the two had a great few hours. I will be using her again when I need someone to provide doggy cuddles!
Lara is an excellent cat sitter. We have a medium to high maintenance cat, but Lara has taken it all in her stride. We love her approach of being guided by what our cat wants to do. In a very short amount of time she has built up trust with our cat, and she is behaving well (the cat!). On top of that, Lara is organised, communicates well and promptly, takes great pictures, and is always transparent if there is an issue.
I had a wonderful experience with Johanna. She was so thoughtful and came by a few days beforehand to meet my puppy, which really put me at ease. During her time with my pup, Johanna very kindly sent pic updates, and clearly is a natural with dogs. I came home to a happy puppy and couldn’t be more grateful. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter 🐶
Maya is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter / house sitter. She took care of my special needs dog with utmost consideration and patience. She is kind and friendly. My dog loved her from the moment she met her! We are grateful for Maya and will absolutely welcome her back to our home to take care of our girl.
Margo was fantastic with looking after our pets treating them as they were her own. She kept in touch with me regularly and was so kind, friendly and reassuring. And Margo made our holiday as we could relax and not have to worry as our furry babies were in safe hands. I highly recommend Margo and will definitely ask her back the next time we go away.
Thanks Ella, for a second booking - looking after our girl in our home – she was again happy and relaxed when we arrived home, not overly excited to see us, which tells me she was absolutely fine with Ella :) have no hesitation in recommending Ella. for an all day house/dog-sit in your home
Jenna looked after Pickle and Taco (and our home) for 10 nights. Pickle is relatively low maintenance but Taco has anxiety and is VERY vocal, which can be tricky to deal with. Jenna handled Taco's issues with compassion, patience and understanding - showing a great deal of empathy in the process and making us feel a lot better about leaving him with a 'stranger'. She was proactive in finding new ways to help settle him down and never once complained. She was communicative the entire time, sending plenty of updates and responding in a timely manner. We had told her in advance she was welcome to have guests over but she still checked in to make sure it was okay before having anyone over. There was also a day where she needed to be out of the house for an extended period, during which she kindly had her mom stop by to check on the cats and make sure Taco had his medication. We came back to two healthy, happy cats and a clean house that had clearly been looked after. All in all, we are very happy with the service and would gladly book Jenna again (in fact, we have already!)
Lewis looked after our two boxers who are high energy one who is currently only 6 months and the other is only just two. Lewis was amazing, reliable and looked after them only how I could have wanted. He provided us with photos and updates for the 4 days we were away. The boys loved him. Lewis also looked after are home impeccably. I have no qualms in rebooking him or recommending him. He was brilliant.
Olens is the most amazing dog sitter, does so much with your dogs and loves them like they are hers 💕 we have found the perfect dog sitter, and our boys perfect friend , we normally leave with family and this was first time, we tried a dog sitter, we will be using Olena forever, feel lucky we have found her xxx
Anja is amazing! She is very caring, attentive and loving too. Also, very punctual. I had to leave at 5.30am in the morning and she came 5.15am as discussed and stayed until I am back which was around 7.30pm. I didnt have to even call her except once to check how things are! She is very reassuring and when I came back home my little furry baby was so relaxed and happy. She even didnt want Anja to go home. She really loved her. I will definitely for sure without any doubts will book her for my little furry baby. I highly recommend her!!!!!!!
Super satisfied with Alain - Miso was well looked after and Alain left our house better than he found it. He kept us informed about Miso’s routine and sent us lots of pictures. Communication has been fantastic and Alain was proactive and asked all the right question to ensure Miso would be comfortable with him early at the time of booking, saw us for a meet and greet and was punctual and transparent throughout. Thank you, Alain.
