Absolutely amazing! Such a helpful kind women, my old boy Pogo clicked with her instantly and have arranged regular dog walking off the back off how good Anna was with him herself! Very informative but not in your face. Just an overall really good experience made me feel at ease with letting her in my home without me there and keeping hold of a key for the week. Would highly recommend.

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!

Susanna has been wonderful with our Golden Retriever puppy! He can be a bit of a land shark and excitable at the moment but she tires him out, trains with him and makes sure he has his potty breaks. He warmed to her right away and enjoyed all his visits from her. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you Susanna for taking such good care of our fur baby!

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!

About: We've had our own family dog for 5 years now and bred our own puppies - keeping 2 of them. I've always loved walking them, and playing with them and am brilliant at long or fast walks designed to tire them out so you can watch them peacefully sleep all day without trouble and watch them be excited for their next walk or playdate I'm a uni student, so have quite an irregular timetable but plenty of time during the morning, day and evening for pets if worked out in advance. I can be very upfront about when I'm available and also generally have weekends free. I will strive to always talk to you about boundaries and rules for your pet before being left with them, as well as for myself. I keep a watchful eye on the pets - I'll always subconsciously want to be playing with them regardless

About: I have had family pets around me for the last 20 years of my life. As a child, I would always play with my friends pets and I was so excited when my family decided to have pets of our own. I have had many pets around me in my life, including birds, fish, dogs and cats. I have taken care of young and elderly animals, seeing them through all points in their lives. I have recently moved to Exeter from Australia with my fiancee. With her being busy at university, I am taking a career break after having worked in the defence engineering sector for the last 9 years. As such, I am free for most if not all days of the week at all times. If you require pet sitting services, I will abide by the rules of your household and endeavour to do my best in taking care of your pet. It's quite simple, respect the household of others and don't do anything you wouldn't do in your own home. This goes for the pets too, I am there for their well being!

About: As an athlete with an active lifestyle I will ensure your dog gets the exercise and attention they need whether it is an energetic run or a leisurely stroll. I grew up with dogs since I was only little and have experiences owning our two family dogs. Safety is always a priority and making sure your dog feels comfortable and happy. I am currently working part-time with flexible hours. Except Monday's where I start and finish early, my work days starts in the afternoon with Wednesday completely off. Thus, I believe I am able to take care of your dog during the day and overnight if needed. I have a fenced back garden and space to play. I have a car so we can go for more walks in the nature and I am also able to get to your home easily.

Even when things weren’t entirely straightforward with our cat’s behaviour, she persevered and handled it professionally. We’re so grateful for her support and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!

Lara is very professional, she answer my messages promptly always. I would definitely consider her to look after Lúa in the future and also would recommend her to our friends.

About: Hello, fellow dog lovers! My name is Imogen:)   Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog at the age of five, and I’ve been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by them ever since. I truly believe dogs are family, and they deserve the very best care, love, and attention. I spent the last two years living in Chamonix, France, working as an au pair, and during that time I really missed having dogs around — which inspired me to return to pet sitting. I come from an animal-loving background, with my mum living on a farm in Devon where we’ve bred Rottweilers for many years, alongside three energetic Patterdale Terriers. This experience has given me a strong understanding of dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments — from playful pups to gentle giants. I’m now starting an exciting new chapter in Sun Peaks, Canada, and would love to provide your dog with safe, reliable, and loving care while you’re away. I have just left my role as an Au Pair in Chamonix and looking to pursue a career around dogs! I will have a lot of availability and flexibility whilst I gain experience dog grooming/caring so I will likely be able to make any time work. Based on years of experience with puppies, right up to elderly dogs, in a wide plethora of breeds- I am able to care for most dogs in most circumstances. I am still in search of accommodation so won’t be able to offer animal care in my home (yet). I am happy to crate a dog if necessary and ensure that they are left safe and happy in their homes.

About: I fostered pups (mostly chihuahua mixes and one part pitbull) while living in Mexico (2021-2024) before they went on to their forever homes. I’m used to both young and nervous/adjusting temperaments, and it was always amazing to hear how happy and well adjusted their new families found them. I also helped out with new litters of street dogs (feeding/cleaning and of course playtime) as I lived close to the animal sanctuary which was a dream come true. Every dog/pup’s personality is different and I know how to respond to a full range of barks, I love spending the day in the dog’s rhythm, being guided by walk (GPS always - keeping your fur baby on the lead if recommended, just let me know) and toilet times (responsible bagging of course comes with this territory!). In the UK I’ve mostly sat for friends and family’s dogs (Labradors, Jack Russells Spaniels and Cockapoos). I’m very responsive in calls/texts/whatsapp, and either put playtime first or simply provide a safe atmosphere where all their wellbeing needs are met. I’m a freelance writer (wfh) who is very happy to stay overnight; I prioritise walking time and playtime so your dog/puppy can follow their usual routine, especially when it comes to housetraining (puppy experience shines on!) Mealtimes happen as normal and I’ll check in about when / what treats are part of the existing routine, especially for pups or where this interplays with training. Lots of gentle but firm playtime (including introducing chew toys to help gently refocus a bitey puppy), and as many walks and/or as long garden playtime as is wanted. 🏠: Note, when daycaring at mine, our garden is a well walled roof garden, good for fresh air, but we’ll go for proper walks nearby in St Bartholomew’s Square and/or Flowerpots Park. ❕I do not offer overnight boarding 🤍

Maria was a great dog sitter.
