Anna was fantastic. Even with the difficulty of getting into the house she made sure she got in and that the cats were fed. The mess the cats made with the cat litter she cleaned up and disposed of the litter outside. My cats are very shy and hide from strangers but she went looking for them every day to make sure they were okay. Would definitely use again and highly recommend

Alexandra was great. They communicated all throughout the time spent visiting. Leo was kind enough to show up and say hello. Will use again and encourage others to do so as well.

So happy with Lucy’s service. I needed a last minute booking for my dog and Lucy accommodated me, even squeezing in a quick visit to meet me and Pasha before she went on holiday. Lucy sent updates during her visit which was reassuring to receive as I was out the house for so long! My dog Pasha seemed to love their time together!

Another really EXCELLENT visit by Carla today. Despite the rain Carla fed and took my dogs out. She also towelled them dry and cleaned the mud spattered across my hallway walls, staying extra time to do that. Really good and caring sitter, already booked for next week!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Huge thank you to Josie for helping with my dog while I was away! She popped in to keep her company, let her out for toilet breaks and took her for little walks around the block. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands. super reliable and clearly loves dogs — would definitely recommend! 🐾

About: Hi! I’m currently a postgraduate student living in the UK. I’m quite a calm and patient person, and I really enjoy spending quiet time with animals 🐱🐶 I once rescued a stray cat and took care of it for about 6 months, so I understand the responsibility of feeding, cleaning, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I also have some experience with dog walking, and I’m always gentle and attentive when looking after pets. As a student, my schedule is quite flexible during the week. I’m happy to follow your routines carefully and send updates, so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. I may not have years of experience, but I will genuinely care for your pet as if they were my own. I’m available in the mornings from 7–9am (Monday to Friday), evenings from 5:30–9:30pm (Tuesday to Friday), and I have full availability on Saturdays. I try to be flexible whenever possible, so feel free to message me to discuss your needs! When caring for pets in your home, I will make sure to respect your space and follow your instructions carefully. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I will try to keep their routine as normal as possible. I’m a clean and tidy person, and I will make sure everything is left as I found it. I’m also happy to send updates and photos, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and have grown up in a household surrounded by animals - dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, reptiles and horses! I also have hands on experience pet sitting. I’ve house sat for extended periods where I looked after a Golden Retriever and on a separate occasion I cared for two Black Labradors. Alongside dogs, I’ve also lived with and cared for cats, so I’m comfortable looking after feline friends too. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I’m always happy to follow specific instructions to make sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules or just keeping them company, I’m committed to making sure they’re well looked after while you’re away. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe hands. If you’d like to arrange a meet and greet or have any questions, feel free to get in touch. I’d love to meet you and your pets! I work from home in a flexible role, which means I’m around throughout the day for walks, playtime, and keeping pets company. I do occasionally go into the office, but I always plan ahead to make sure any pets in my care are happy, comfortable, and well looked after. Outside of work, I love being active and outdoors - especially at the weekends, when you’ll usually find me out for long walks by the beach or heading into town for a coffee. I’d be more than happy to include a dog in those adventures (if they enjoy it!) or tailor the day to suit their usual routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I take time to understand each pet’s individual needs and follow instructions closely to keep everything consistent and stress free for them, as I would want someone to look after my own pet! I also provide regular updates and photos, so owners can feel confident and reassured.

About: Hi I’m Anneka (39) and I absolutely love dogs. My daughter (Ruby 16) desperately wants me to get one however I also work 30hrs a week. So we have compromised to Rover and we have met in the middle. I’m very attentive and want you to feel at ease leaving your loved one with me. I live close to Exeter quay and I’m always going on long walks. Also willing to take dogs in my car to different locations. It would be a pleasure to look after your furry friend! If you have any questions at all please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Many thanks, Anneka. My availability varies. I work part time so I will have plenty of time to look after your dog. You not only get me you get Ruby too. Safety is my number one priority. Your dog will never be left alone. They will always have access to fresh water and fed regularly when needed.

Lin was lovely with my 12 week old puppy. She stayed with her for 2 hours while I visited a friend - they played and snuggled on the sofa. Lin has a lovely attitude to dogs, she's very gentle and Tilly absolutely loved her new play buddy. Thank you Lin!

About: I have had family pets all my life. I have looked after friends, family and my own pets, taking them out for walks, feeding and cleaning when required. I have recently finished my third term of university therefore have a lot of time to spare over summer! I also play professional sport, and have a lot of time in the mornings and on off days to look after your pets! I have a secure house and outdoor space. There are no other pets in the house. I would take your dog well known and pet friendly areas.

About: Since I was young, I have been surrounded by a variety of different animals. In my household, we always had cats, and family and friends often had dogs and other animals that we would visit and sometimes sit for. I've always enjoyed the presence of animals and have always been drawn to them. Currently, I have all the free time in the world, so please drop me a message and let me know what you need and I will accommodate as best as possible! I am unable to safely and comfortably allow furry friends into my own home, so I will only be able to visit or stay at your own home in addition to dog walking. I am very attentive and will listen to instructions given on how to best provide care for your pet.

About: Hi, I've been a mum to furbabies for over 25 years and would like to offer the same mum experience to your pets while you're away from home. My Boston Terrier Griff, Frenchie Margot, and cats Riley & Rosa would stay at home with family while I was with yours. Having said that, Griff and Margot are always up for playdates if it were suitable to you I can be fully at home from Fri evening to Tuesday early morning. I may be able to book additional days as annual leave with 6 weeks or more notice I will ensure your pets have the same routine and service that they have with you so that they won't be disrupted or unsettled while you're away from home

Rosie has been the most amazing cat sitter, she clearly loves cats and Casper has developed a real soft spot for her! Every day we have received photos and videos of Casper sitting on her lap purring and playing - she takes the most beautiful professional photos I think we may even frame one!! Rosie even spent a few hours in our house working from home so that Casper could have some longer company - the house has been left clean and tidy as she also kindly hoovered up his spread about litter each day. Thank you so much for everything!! We won't hesitate to book again for our next trip away :)

Ryan was prompt and very polite and clearly experienced with dogs. Elsa took to him immediately on meeting and gave him lots of wags and kisses. They enjoyed a play but he then got her to settle nicely as well. I'm already planning on booking Ryan again for a longer stay.

Lin was absolutely amazing, she was an amazing cat sitter for my very nervous cat. She managed to somehow warm him up to her and he also let her pet him in just three days. She sent me pictures and followed the guidance I provided well. She also kept me updated through out her visit. Would definitely book her again! Thank you Lin.
