House Sitting in Enfield

“Sharon was great from the start. Happy to meet Max and Maysy before the sitting and straight away I could tell there would be no issues at all! I had a stress free time away and came home to two very happy dogs! Thank you Sharon. Absolutely recommend Sharon to anyone requiring a worry free and altogether happy experience”

About: I I’ve got over 8 years of hands-on dog-sitting experience and have grown up around pets all my life. At home, I care for my two dogs, Cookie and Lola, and my two cats, Marvel and Zeus, so I’m very used to different personalities, routines, and little quirks. I also help out with my mum’s doggy day care, looking after a wide range of dogs, many of them are now long-term regulars who I’ve really grown attached to over time. It’s such a lovely feeling seeing familiar faces come back, and I’ve honestly fallen a bit in love with quite a few of them! This experience has helped me feel confident handling different temperaments and making sure each dog feels safe, settled, and genuinely cared for. I truly love what I do and always want every pet to feel like they’re in a calm, happy, and caring home. I work full time Monday to Friday, but I’m available in the evenings as well as full weekends and overnight care. I can offer a range of services including walks, feeding, playtime, sitting, and keeping your pet company. Due to living at home with other pets and family members, I currently offer pet care in the owner’s home. I’m always respectful of your space and will make sure to follow any house rules, routines, or specific instructions you have for your pet.

“Paula was so good with Peanut. She constantly kept us updated with photos and made sure Peanut was looked after incredibly well! Thanks Paula”

About: I truly love bonding with other peoples pets, often being dubbed step-mum and aunty by the owners. Ever since I was young I’ve been helping to look after dogs, big and small, young and old, so I feel super comfortable with different pet personalities and needs. I’ve cared for dogs for up to two weeks, in both my home or theirs with other responsibilities. I’d love to become your favourite borrower! You scratch my back and well, I’ll scratch your dogs… Generally I’m pretty flexible and will always try to make time for furry friends… Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays I work from home, able to give your pet ample attention. If I get to know dogs well, I can also take them in to the office on Tuesdays & Wednesdays. Those days I’ll be home around 6:30pm. No real restrictions on the weekend! Although I’ve not had a pet of my own, my house has seen so many! Yours can join me for cuddles on the sofa (if allowed), roam free downstairs and run around the large fenced garden.

About: I love interacting or taking care of cats, dogs, fish or any other animal. Enjoy walking, nature and love exploring. Also love caring for friends dogs or cats. I work at a school so am available during holidays and weekends. I love going for park walks anyway and own a car so could even take a dog somewhere different. I am also very happy to take in a dog or cat as I have a park very nearby to my flat I do not own any pets myself but would love to care for them. It is just budgets that do not allow that. I know that pets need attention, care, love and activities along with great nourishment for their development. I do also believe that they are like your child. I have experience in childcare also so can bring some of that knowledge to my care

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely understand that pets are family. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who will care for them with the same love, attention, and patience that you do. I grew up with French Bulldogs, so I'm very familiar with brachycephalic breeds and the extra care, monitoring, and attention they require. Through this experience, I've learned how important it is to pay close attention to a pet's behaviour, comfort, and wellbeing. I live with two tabby cats and a kitten (family cats), giving me experience caring for cats of different ages and personalities. Whether it's an energetic young pet who loves to play or an older pet who prefers a calmer routine, I'm happy to adapt to their individual needs. I'm reliable, attentive, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I work in the Essex area, so I’m able to do Morning lunchtime and evening drop-ins locally around Chingford, Woodford, Chigwell and nearby areas. I also cover Enfield and nearby areas. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine as I’m flexible with mornings, evenings and overnight which works well for regular visits and feeding schedules. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, making sure pets are checked on, walked, and cared for even when owners are busy at work. When caring for a pet in their home, my priority is always their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure they feel relaxed and secure by keeping things familiar and following their normal schedule as closely as possible. I understand that pets can feel anxious or lonely when their owners are away, so I focus on giving them calm, caring company and plenty of attention to help them feel at ease. Whether that’s cuddles, playtime, walks, or simply sitting with them so they don’t feel alone, I adapt to what each pet needs. I also respect the owner’s home, keeping everything clean, tidy, and just as I found it. My goal is to give both pets and owners peace of mind, knowing they are safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

“Izzy did such a fantastic job of looking after our kitten Anzu - and Anzu absolutely loved her! We got photo and video updates, and Anzu has never looked as happy. Izzy is a natural with cats. She also stayed and kept our house in nice condition, and even put the bin out for us which we were grateful for. We really hope we can use Izzy again! ”

“All I can say is thank god I found Ellie. Getting our puppy wasn’t planned, and we already had a holiday booked. I was contemplating whether to go or cancel. Thought I’d give Rover a try and came across Ellie’s profile. She lives local to me, which was a huge bonus as it meant she knew the area well. I instantly just felt a positive vibe after having a little conversation and instantly knew Eira was going to be in safe hands, which made my anxiety go away. Ellie was so keen to know every detail about Eira, from her sleep, day to day routine, and general care. We came home to a super happy, comfortable, well looked after pup. I really can’t recommend Ellie enough. Thank you SO much for looking after our baby. Will definitely be in touch for any future plans, and Ellie is welcome round any time to come and see her new bestie! I’m sure Eira will miss you as much as you’ll miss her! 🫶🏼”

“Beccy stepped in to help at the eleventh hour after I’d been let down by another sitter and my puppy instantly warmed to her! She’s super experienced and confident which put me at ease as I knew she’d take such good care of Stevie. I was sent photo and video updates through the day and she even driver her to new parks out of our area which was so nice for our puppy. We came home to a very relaxed and well looked after dog! Thanks Beccy! X”

About: I am a reliable, caring and attentive pet sitter who genuinely loves animals. I have experience looking after dogs and cats for friends, family and neighbours, including feeding, walking, playing and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am patient, responsible and understand how important routines and trust are for pets. I am happy to provide regular updates, photos and lots of care and attention. I work 5 days a week, 4 days in the office and one day from home. I start my work at 7 and finish 4 so I can be home by 5, is depending on the location. Usually after work a go for walks or I do exercises. Weekends I can be flexible I can stay home or going out, depending on the need of the cats or dogs. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and cared for in a calm and clean environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, routines and any special needs. I pay close attention to pets’ behaviour and make sure they receive enough attention, playtime and rest. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space, keep everything tidy and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. Safety is very important to me, so I make sure pets are secure during walks, around other animals and at home at all times. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and loved while their owners are away.

“What can I say?! It's the first time we've ever used a dog sitter as we've used the same kennels in the north of England for over 20 years, but due to recently getting a new puppy we felt that being in her home environment would suit her better than kennels at such a young age. After searching intensively and thoroughly on various dog / house sitting sites, I finally came across Caroline's profile ........ and soooo glad I did! She was friendly and welcoming from our first get-together where she met our dogs - a 12 yr old American Bulldog and our almost 5 month old boxer girl. The dogs took to Caroline straight away, using her as a cuddle machine .... and if they were happy with her then I definitely trusted their judgement (especially as the older dog is an ex-RSPCA bad abuse case)! So as to keep the puppy in her new routine, Caroline stayed in our home, sending us daily messages / updates, photos and videos showing our houndz at home and out and about, genuinely enjoying themselves, to reassure us that all was okay and that the dogs were thoroughly enjoying themselves in our absence! We came back home to two very happy, settled dogs - and the puppy had even started to learn how to give a paw thanks to Caroline. She was absolutely amazing with our dogs and the hubby and I would have no hesitation in using Caroline's services again. Very highly recommended by us and our two houndz!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was young. Friends and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, and look after their pets whilst they’ve been away. If you choose me to be your dog sitter I would like to reassure you that your dog will receive my full attention. Days will be spent with lots of cuddles and treats. I will also be available at absolutely any time of the day to check in via phone or video chat at your request. I’m currently working as a Financial Crime Consultant full-time. But I’m mainly working from home. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets and take them for walks during my breaks/after working. I’m also available on the weekends. I currently live in a flat in Enfield Chase. The flat has a lot of security so your dog/cat will always be safe and monitored carefully by myself.

“Chloe looked after our teething German shepherd puppy, he is a handful but she managed it perfectly! She was very professional and I was so relieved to find someone I could trust to take care of him. Thanks Chloe!”

About: My Dalmatian, Jack went to the Rainbow Bridge 14 days before Christmas 2024. It broke me completely. I have had to say goodbye to many over the years, but there was something about Jack that left me reeling for months. Caring for a pet is one of life’s most rewarding responsibilities, offering unconditional love, companionship, joy and laughter. Pets are not just something that we own, they are part of our family and deserve all the love, respect and as much attention as possible. I am called Nanny Biscuits because all the dogs in my family know that I am going to give them loads of cuddles and doggy biscuits if they are allowed. I am aware that not all dogs are allowed to have treats for various reasons and I am very comfortable with that. Your wishes for your pet have to be respected. I have found that if I look after a pet in my home, it is good to have a blanket or item of clothing from you that has the familiar smell of you and the home the pet lives in. Comfort items boost emotional safety and comfort which every pet needs if they are in unfamiliar surroundings. I work full time, Monday - Friday. I work from home on a Monday and a Friday. My job does not give me annual leave, but we get "vacation time". I have 3 weeks off over Christmas. Two weeks off at Easter and a week off for Whitsun. I am available throughout the summer from the last working day in July until the first working day in October. I do have "vacation duty" for two weeks this September from 14th September - 21st September. I am happy to care for your pet in my home or yours, or, wherever you pet feels safe and comfortable. Morning, afternoon and evening walks are always on the agenda, I enjoy dog walking, and I am also content with a dog that does not need as much exercise as others.

About: My brother's German Shepherd, Finn, I have looked after recently for six days while he had an eye infection. Finn is also a rescue with an anxiety condition and so needed medication administered. I also have experience with puppies as well. I feel therefore with my experience and calm demeanour I am a good pet-sitter. It also brings me great joy and contentment to be around pets. It is currently my only method of income, so I have a lot of availability in terms of schedule. This means that unless I have other jobs lined-up or a holiday for example, I will be completely free to care for your pet. In the pet's home I would be with the pet for as long as they needed, whether that meant constantly or only a little bit throughout the day. I also have experience of addressing health needs, and so would be very vigilant with that if needed. Overall I am always contented to be around pets, so would give them one hundred percent of my attention one hundred percent of the time.
