About: My husband has had dogs all of his life, he has cared and looked after dogs from newborn puppies to older dogs. We have our own unneutered male French bulldog We have a busy welcoming household so our availability will vary and be updated according. I am at home the majority of the time and my husband works shift work We have a very good sized fenced garden and our own un neutered male french bulldog who is very friendly. We are happy to crate if required We have a busy household with children but nearly always have someone at home, which means there’s always someone to supervise your pups! We are happy to crate if that’s what your dog prefers. We have a good sized fenced in garden and one French bulldog who is friendly and playful. We are a short walk away from Hainault Forest where we like to walk our dog.

“Paul was great with a very excitable Mabli, he took her on a couple of long walks throughout the day and all communication was excellent (including plenty of pics)! Blaze, Paul’s own dog, is very sweet natured and super tolerant of Mabli’s bouncy energy. Thanks again Paul!”


“Fernanda took the time to meet us beforehand, show us her home and answer any questions that made us feel at ease. Biscuit had a great day with Fernanda, she took him on regular walks and sent us photos throughout the day to show us he was being well looked after. Would definitely use Fernanda again!”


About: I’m a proud owner of a beautiful 7 year old female Pomeranian. She’s truly treated like a princess, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m opening my home to look after your precious pooch, whilst you’re away, whether it be for a couple of hours to multiple days. Be assured your dog will be treated exactly as I treat my dog - with love and care. Your beautiful pooch will be in great hands, with daily walks (sometimes 2x a day) in the park/forest, meals provided on time, many toys that my dog will happily share, and a private/secure balcony with fake grass to allow the dogs to do their business. I also live near my family home which has a lovely garden, properly fenced off so it’ll be a perfect place for the dogs to run around. I have access to my family home daily. I know first hand how important it is to find a trustworthy dog sitter! Please let me know if you have any questions I currently work in the office 2/3 times a week however I can be flexible. So please let me know your schedule and I can work around it. As mentioned above, I treat my own dog like a princess. She’s very pampered and be assured I will treat your dog the same. I do not use crates however if you dog is crate trained, I’m more than happy to follow your usual daily routine. Dogs are allowed in all rooms, and on the furniture. My home is a safe and welcoming place for new pooches!

About: I have been with pets since I was 16. I have 2 dogs they lives with my parents back in my country. I miss my dog so much that I started playing with dogs arround my house. Dogs are my family I always treat them as my babies. I’m always ready to play with fur baby but I work weekends so I am available for weekdays to take care of lovely dogs anytime. Well I’m living in flat and I don’t have garden but there is garden 5 min away from my home we will definitely play there, will give some treats with good food. And if I’m your home I will make sure the dog is comfortable with me, I will take him out every 2 to 4 hours for breaks.

About: I’ve been part of a dog loving family since I was 7 and have had the joy of living with all kinds of breeds through my adult life – from the Miniature Dachshund Otto to Mastiff Hector. Dogs have always brought me so much happiness. I’m based right by Epping Forest, surrounded by amazing green spaces and nature trails – perfect for some great walks and sniffing adventures. I’ve got a spacious car too, so I’m happy to take your dog to their favourite spot or travel to you if that’s easier. Since moving to Epping Forest, I’ve been walking dogs and love it. I’ve been walking and dropping in on dogs 1-2-1 so have good experience with reactive or anxious dogs. I always try to make each walk fun, safe and totally tailored to your dog’s needs. Feel free to drop me a message with any questions – always happy to chat! 🐶🤍 I have a very open and flexible schedule and can work around your needs. Scheduling weekly regular slots helps, but again we can work this out if you have any questions or need a more frequent service. I can’t accept overnight stays as it goes against my current tenancy agreeement. Happy to drop in, feed and let dogs out, play with them and keep them company with whatever they need to keep them happy and engaged.

About: We are a family of four and also proud owners of two lovely Cocker spaniels and a Bengal cat. I have had animals all my life, looking after them from puppies and kittens all the way through to old age. My two dogs are very friendly and well-trained, and they love other animals. They will enjoy having another dog to play with. I work from home, and have plenty of time to play with your dog, and they will get lovely long meadow walks twice a day. I have a large fenced garden for play and your dog can happily roam around. When we go for a walks, it is usually over the fields behind our house, which are all beautiful grassed meadows and great for long runs. The downstairs of my house is completely tiled so lovely and cool in the summer and warm in the winter when the underfloor heating goes on. I will accept crate-trained or non-crate-trained dogs, and I am happy for your pet to roam the whole house. I just ask that your dog is fully house trained although we know accidents can happen.

“Sze has previously looked after our dog Mabel, and we were very happy that she was available again to watch Mabel while I was out of town on a work trip. Brilliant communication, and enjoyed the photo updates. Mabel can be a bit of a character on walks (trying to communicate that she doesn't want to go home yet, or that she wants out of the rain, etc) and Sze handled her with good graces and enthusiasm.”


“Fantastic and very reassuring. Our puppy stayed with Charis for 3 days and seemed very happy when we picked her up. No fuss approach. Regular update given. Will definitely use Charis again in future”
