House Sitting Exeter

“Myah is a great sitter - responsive, reliable and very attentive to the dogs and what they need and how they behave. Both our dogs are rescues and have their challenges. Myah came for a meet and greet and then a walk to get to know them both. We felt very confident to leave our house and dogs with her and would highly recommend.”

“I cannot speak highly enough of Grace . She is caring , conscientious , responsible , level headed and immediately gained a rapport with our cat. It was quite a major thing for me to hire a cat sitter , but after having Grace sit, I wish I had done it years ago. Previously we have used high end kennels but our cat is getting old and always took time to settle back home again. On returning home this time we found our cat completely chilled and content . Grace had kept us up to date with updates and photos while we were away , and had given our cat all the love and attention she needed. She clearly loved her time with Grace. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Grace for sitting to anyone.”

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: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have my own. I know the importance of a routine and their comfort, their individual needs such as needing space or wanting to cuddle. I’m comfortable with administering flea, tick and worm treatments, and currently looking into dog/animal first aid. I’m currently on maternity leave, so I have lots of time for walks and sitting in the evenings or early mornings, especially during the summer. Weekends are a lot more flexible, and happy to walk dogs who get on with others as I have my own. I’ll always ask owners first but happy to provide solo walks if preferred. In my own home, I have an enclosed garden and live with a very friendly and social cocker spaniel. Indoors, I have a separate kitchen and living room, allowing for space for dogs if they stay. My dog sleeps in a crate in the kitchen which has a baby gate so separation can be provided if necessary. Very friendly neighbourhood with parks and good green parks available for walks close by.

“It was great to be able to leave our rather difficult terrier in the capable hands of Patrick. We were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing Reggie was happy and well cared for.”

“Jo was absolutely perfect for our reactive, strong rescue dog! Jo is warm, kind and sent us updates but most importantly left us feeling totally reassured that our anxious dog would be loved and well looked after. Our dog also took to Jo and her wonderfully warm energy instantly, as did we. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!”

About: I took care of my mom’s grumpy senior cat during the last stages of her life (apparently arthritis doesn’t prevent them from turning into Mike Tyson). I am a single, young, energetic 23 year old female university student, so my schedule is very flexible. I am very social and physically strong (practically move boxes for a living atp). I have a great social circle with their own pets as well, so your pets will have a friend to go on walks with xx I volunteer for the dog walking service at our university. Back home as it was not really common to keep dogs, I used to take care of my neighbours’ cats. These are the two lovely babies I walk here. Luna is a cocker spaniel and my regular, and has the shiniest black coat and grinch feet! She has a fascination with tennis balls but is very possessive over them. If I throw the ball once, she won’t ever let go of it, and will even pick up multiple things in her mouth but never let go of the ball. She likes dog ice cream, and is very happy to see new people, however she has an attention span of a toddler xD she’s quite a diva in the best ways and has a routine on how she wants things done. Reggie is a duck toller, but I’m half convinced he’s just a cat in the wrong body. He’s an absolute rocket, and loves swimming in the Quay (beware of the swans and geese tho!). He loves his frisbee, but will try to take it out of your hand if you’re holding it for too long ._. He’s got a lovely coat and looks like fried chicken when the sun hits it right. He is also a bit ADHD, and will not go down the same side of the road that he went up before. My program relies heavily on self study, so class durations are short over the week. I work part time as well in the middle of high street, so I can be flexible with my schedule. Most residences will simply be a short walk or ride away for me as I live on university grounds. Communication is key-our pets are unable to talk, so understanding their body language and being quick to act if something looks off is the difference between a healthy and dead pet. My phone will be on 24/7 without silent mode when I’m taking care of a pet. I will take a lot of pictures with your pets though :p I play for the university’s basketball team, so I’m constantly out for runs and walks outside of training time. Having a pet would be great company for me especially during the darker hours.

“Lucy was great - on time, calm, listened carefully and Max had a lovely day with her. Thank you Lucy”

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.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Nan. Absolutely loved how she put more effort than I asked her to in taking care of our Maltipoo Chadwick. Our dog can be very anxious when we’re away but she was able to calm him down. We felt very safe leaving him with Nan. Will definitely book again when we’re away. Thank you so much Nan!”

“Chantelle is a fantastic sitter. Koda absolutely loves her and she took her for lots of walks and play time with friends. I felt at ease knowing Koda was in good hands. Chantelle kept me updated with pictures and messages about Koda which I really appreciated. I will definitely book again and really recommend to anyone 😊”

“Mia was great. She arrived on time, took very good care of our dog Buddy. Everything was left in order, and Buddy was happy and comfortable. She was easy to communicate with and just really pleasant to work with. I'd be happy to have her dog-sit again.”

About: Hello, We are Hannah and Sam and we've been full time global petsitters for over 3 years, from house cats in Dubai to Beagles in India. Now we are back in Exeter and want to continue our love for petsitting. We’ve been fortunate to receive many lovely reviews from pet owners who appreciate our attentive care, regular updates, and the bond we build with their pets which we are happy to share upon request! There are two of us on the profile, so your pet gets double the attention, double the love and double the care! It also means should an unforeseen event occur where one of us can't make it, you can rest easy knowing the other person can still manage the booking. Sam and I both grew up with dogs and have a deep understanding of what it takes to keep them comfortable and content. Whether it’s playing games, engaging in fun enrichment activities, or taking them on exciting walks, we treat every dog as if they are our own by making sure they feel loved, safe, and entertained while you're away! We are both local to Exeter so know of all the safe and fun walks. A dog’s routine is incredibly important to us, we find that sticking to their usual schedule keeps them happiest. Whether it's mealtime, walk times, or bedtime, we work around their routine to ensure they feel secure and comfortable. As I am self employed our schedule can align to theirs. Also, if house sitting they would have company and lots of attention throughout the day. We believe that communication is key, especially when it comes to your pet’s well-being. If we notice any changes in their behaviour or something seems off, we’ll keep you informed every step of the way, ensuring you always know how they’re doing. We have experience administering medication, including pills and topical treatments, and have cared for senior dogs, including those with hearing impairments. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a little patience, or simply their usual routine, we’re committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in our care.
