House Sitting Fakenham

About: I have been dog sitting since I was 19. I have a flat coated retriever who is 11 months old, who I trained by myself. I currently work part time 3 days week (either mon, tues, weds or tues, weds, thurs). Meaning I have availability for walking in evenings or early mornings those days. I do have availability on days off and including weekends for day care of cats and dogs. I have a fenced garden with one very friendly dog who loves to play but he and your dogs can be crated easily and / or separated as my partner takes our dog to work when needed. Meaning there is an option for the owner.

“Steven is a wonderful dog sitter! He is calm, kind, thoughtful and reliable and my boys were very happy with him. He had no problem with a slight change of timings which I really appreciated. We are looking forward to our next visit in a couple of weeks Thank you”

“Laura looked after Luna for a few hours while we were at a family lunch. I think she’s Luna’s new best friend as she not only took her for a walk, but also played ball with her in the garden for ages! Laura was very friendly, and great with Luna who is nervous with people she doesn’t know. Would highly recommend!”

“Zoe was brilliant she stepped in at short notice to look after 3 dogs , one of whom was recovering from a nasty injury. She sent us regular pictures and they were clearly very happy with their new playmate. In addition, she was able to help us out with an additional night when we had a family emergency. It was such a relief to know they were being well cared for and I would have no hesitation in recommending Zoe. In addition, she left everything neat and tidy. Absolutely brilliant.”

“Izzy has been great with our new puppy who absolutely loves her and gets so excited when she walks through the door. She has remembered and taken into account every little detail we have told her about our puppy and kept that in mind whilst looking after him. I know he has such a great time every time she is here.”

“We’re so glad we found Cassie! We felt so at ease knowing our cat was being looked after by her. She was great at giving us updates and we came home from our holiday to a very happy and loved little cat.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Tamara. From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals. She followed all my dog’s routines, gave them so much attention, and sent regular updates that made me feel completely reassured. I returned to a clean home and very happy dogs. Tamara goes above and beyond, she’s truly exceptional! Will definitely be recommending Tamara to our friends and booking with her again! Thank you Tamara.”

“Jez was a fantastic dog sitter. We had him stay for a few days at our flat with our two pups. Both are big dogs with lots of quirks and Jez handled them in stride, including giving them both their medicine (not always an easy task!). We felt at ease knowing he was with them, and would definitely book again/recommend to others! Thanks Jez!”

“1st class sitter. Cares for our ageing labrador and looks after our home very well. Highly recommended.”

“David looked after our spaniel and elderly cat for 10 days. He did exactly that! Doug (spaniel) bonded well with David, he was even allowed to sleep with him (as he does us). Our elderly cat Millie is a rather solitary and shy soul however seemed perfectly herself when we returned home. I would recommend David to look after your pets, he even watered the plants for us. Thanks David and we hope you enjoyed your stay with our pets. June & Mark 🐾🐾🐾🐾”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have personally owned four cocker spaniels, giving me hands-on experience with energetic, affectionate breeds. I’m confident with walking, feeding, bathing and providing lots of care and reassurance, and I always treat pets like family. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside my uni studies. I’m organised, flexible, and able to plan my schedule around bookings. I’m available for regular drop-ins, walks, and sitting, and I always make sure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care while owners are away. I always prioritise safety, trust, and routine when caring for pets. I follow owners’ instructions closely, keep environments calm and secure, and ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for in their own home.

About: I’ve had my own dog for five wonderful years, and he truly opened my heart to all living creatures. We trained him ourselves from a puppy, and he has amazing recall and lovely manners. That experience taught me patience, consistency, and how important trust is with dogs. I regularly look after friends’ dogs of all sizes, small, medium, and large and I’m confident handling different temperaments and energy levels. I provide daily walks once or twice a day, sometimes including a run for more active dogs, and longer walks at the weekend for extra adventure and stimulation. Your dog would be cared for as if they were my own, with attention, affection, and plenty of exercise. 🐾 As I work from home, dogs in my care are rarely left alone and always have company throughout the day. I tailor walks to each dog’s needs, offering one or two walks daily depending on their routine and energy levels. There are always plenty of cuddles, attention and gentle supervision.. 🐾 Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. In my home, I provide a calm, secure and loving environment where dogs are treated as part of the family. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences and any special requirements so they feel settled and comfortable. I maintain consistent boundaries, supervise interactions, and ensure doors and outdoor spaces are secure at all times. Walks are carried out safely, with close attention to surroundings and other dogs. I only allow off-lead time where recall is reliable and agreed with the owner.🐾

“Delighted to have found Sally & Kevin. Our first meeting made us feel so at ease and confident our dog would be with the right sitter leaving him for the first time in our home. They kept to his routine plus updated us and upon return our dog was so happy we knew he had been in great hands. Thoroughly recommend them cannot thank them enough.”

About: I've been a pet owner my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, particularly large, high-energy breeds that require plenty of exercise and attention. I'm very active and enjoy long walks, outdoor adventures, and keeping dogs engaged and happy. I provide a high standard of care, treating every pet as if they were my own. I have recently moved back from South Korea where I have been an international school teacher for many years. I currently tutor online and am looking for ways to enjoy time in different cities/ have a change in pace of life! I have lots of time to care for pets during my daily schedule. I currently have no pets so want to use my energy and love to care for others. Due to a adventurous pet dog as a child, I am aware of the challenges that can be faced with energetic, big dogs so I will use this experience to keep your pets safe.

“First time booking Julie, she was great with the dogs and cats. You can tell she loves animals very professional and the animals loved her! Would recommend to anyone thinking of booking. Thanks Julie”

“Paula was so very kind and caring towards our cat and helped very much even when he was unwell. She kept in touch and sent pictures and videos of him. We were so grateful to have her here with him for peace of mind. She even cleaned the house before leaving which was so thoughtful. We will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Abigail looked after our dog for us while we were on holiday and he had the best staycation with her and her dog. We felt reassured he was having the comforts of a home away from home and were kept up updated with photos during his time there. Would definitely recommend Abigail she has a passion for dogs and our dog Reggie settled very quickly with her in her home! Abigail was brilliant and accommodating particularly as Reggie needed some extra care whilst he was recovering from a recent operation.”
