House Sitting in Fife

“Beth looked after our Merlin overnight and did a wonderful job. She briefly visited to get to know him beforehand, and Merlin felt relaxed around her as if he had known her for years from the moment she walked in the door, she just oozed positivity. We were very happy with Beth's work. she kindly updated us about how our dog was getting on, which also put my mind at ease. We can highly recommend Beth to other dog owners who value their dog being looked after professionally and with a lot of love!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. I previously owned two Labrador Retrievers, so I’m very comfortable with larger, energetic dogs and their exercise and care needs. I’ve also cared for rabbits, giving me confidence with small-animal routines and gentle handling. I currently have a dog and a cat, so I’m used to managing different personalities and tailoring care to each pet’s individual needs. I always aim to provide calm, loving, and reliable care while keeping to your pet’s usual routine. I am currently a university student with a flexible timetable and am free most afternoons I also own a car so would be able to travel for work At University I live in a flat so it would probly wouldn’t be suitable for pets to stay at the flat however there is a large park right next to the flat for dogs to run around in

“Tricia was fantastic staying at our house for over a week to look after our dog and two cats. Tricia's dog, Bonnie, was a lovely guest as well, who got on well with the cats. Tricia is clearly a true animal-lover and responsible person. She sent loads of pictures and updates and left the house in immaculate condition. So glad to have found her (and also very last minute)!”

“We booked Rhiannon to look after our nervous boy Bertie whilst we attended our family wedding. He was well looked after and the piece of mind knowing that he was safe and well cared for meant we could just get on and celebrate the day. Will definitely book again”

About: I've interacted with dogs all my life. I have always had a special connection with dogs. I have experience with dogs from weeks old all the way to the ripe old age of 16 years old. I have trained rescue dogs with aggression issues, including older dogs like Charlie, my departed Collie who I rescued when he was 10 years old. He went from aggressive on the lead to walking safely off the lead within 6 months. My primary occupation is as a live at home carer and I am.also a freelance journalist. I am incredibly flexible and have plenty free time. I live in the perfect place for dogs. I have a fenced garden and live 500 feet from Broughty Ferry's stunning waterfront which offers a variety of stunning walks to take pooch's on.

“Charlene was an absolute star! 🌟 Could not of asked for anyone better to look after my fur baby. From start to finish she made me feel completely at ease with leaving Meg for the night. Already booked her next overnight, and Meg can’t wait to see her again! 🥰”

“Andrew was great! He took a last-minute booking, was very communicative before and during, send me lots of photos and videos, the whole package :)”

About: Active and outdoorsey forestry worker and lifelong animal lover. Since a child, I’ve been around both dogs and cats. Active and enthusiastic daily walker offering reliable walks, pet sitting and lots of love! I work full time in Forestry Mon-Fri, which includes both outdoor and desk work. I have flexible working, which allows me to make my own schedule with starting hours and ending hours. As an active person, I make sure to walk daily and try to spend time outdoors after work as much as I can! I live in a spacious apartment with a safe and secured balcony. My cat enjoys sitting outside in the summer months when it’s warm.

About: Growing up on a farm in the Caribbean, I was surrounded by a menagerie of animals, but my heart always belonged to dogs. Taking care of them was my responsibility as a teenager, and those experiences shaped my love for pets. As an adult, I welcomed a charming cocker spaniel into my life—my queen, my princess, my little diva! Her playful nature led to the arrival of five adorable puppies after a flirtation with a local boy. I cherished each moment with them, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to find them new homes last year. Though they are no longer with me, I take comfort in knowing they are happy, and I still get to see them occasionally. I work from home and therefore can take care of any dog that need some love instead of being left at home alone. There is a lot of love and patience here for your pets while you’re away. I work from home. So lots of time spent with dogs and looking them after. My cocker spaniel, I usually take her for a walk early in the morning and a longer walk in the evenings. When it’s dry and the ground is not soft, I let her off the lead to run around the park! She becomes a maniac (I should sign her up for the olympics, lol)! Anyway, back to my daily routine, because I work from home, I have a lot of time to talk with my dog and get their feedback about something challenging, although she doesn’t say much words, but the wag of the tail sometimes help, lol! The fantastic thing of working from home means that I am seeing her all the time and when I am having lunch she can have lunch too. Also, it means I am available to give her numerous potty breaks as possible. The way In which I care for pets in my home is that I have security cameras all around my house. My cocker spaniel isn’t allowed to go into some rooms. I have a fenced yard and because I work in the kitchen the back door is open for her to run around (however, she prefer being curled up on her donut next to me, except I’m in the garden with her)! If we are going for walks, I always have my dog on lead until we meet a safe park.

“Excellent service from Justine, warm & friendly and just loved the dogs They both seemed to be very happy & content with her, lots of photos sent and regular updates so I was happy too ☺️ Will definitely be requesting Justine again!”

“Rachel was fantastic with our 2 dogs and they obviously loved her. She sent pictures and videos everyday so that we could enjoy our holiday knowing the dogs were being well looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was around 10 years old, including a Golden Retriever, Chihuahua, and other mixed breed small dogs. I’ve helped with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving lots of attention and playtime. I’m patient, calm, and very responsible, and I always adapt to each dog’s personality and routine. I especially enjoy caring for small and medium dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As an MSc student, I have a flexible schedule outside of classes, which allows me to spend quality time with pets during the day and evenings. I plan my activities around their feeding, walking, and play routines so they receive proper care and attention. I enjoy spending time at home, so pets will not be left alone for long periods, and I can provide consistent companionship and supervision. I'm mostly free on Friday, Saturday and Sundays. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and keep pets in safe, clean, and calm environments. I pay close attention to doors, food safety, and any special needs or medications. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s usual routine to reduce stress. I believe trust is very important, so I communicate clearly and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe and happy.

“Madelyn, is incredible. She looks after my two crazy pugs and they absolutely love her, the excitement when she arrives rival my own welcome. She follows their normal routine, ensures they get everything they need and keeps me up to date along the way. She is always on time and I’ve never had any issues. Madelyn is now and will be (until she says no) Odin and Floki’s permanent dog sitter. So glad to have found her. I would recommend her to anyone with dogs wanting a caring and well experienced dog sitter.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs of my own or for neighbours and friends since a young age, which developed into a small clientele of dogs whom I would regularly care for throughout my university studies. I have experience caring for puppies (and can confidently assist or continue puppy training) all the way to elderly dogs and am happy administering medication (non-injection). I like to chat with the owners before taking on a pet sitting job to ensure I know exactly what kind of care you expect from me and, more importantly, how I can make the experience as enjoyable as possible for your furry friend. I am currently a PhD student at the University of Dundee so have full autonomy over my schedule and can be at home or take time off during weekday day times. I have availability over the weekends and evenings and can arrange my work to fit around longer sits if need be. I have an enclosed garden which will be useable by your pet only. I live very close to big open spaces so can take them for any length or duration of exercise they might require. I tend to ask owners the specifics of how they prefer me to care for their pet. For example, any feeding/toilet/sleeping schedules, sleeping arrangements and whether or not they should be allowed on furniture/on beds etc. In my opinion the environment I can provide for your pet is largely up to you.

About: Detached 4 bedroom new build house, in a quiet housing estate. No children. The garden is spacious and fenced. Outside the front of the house is a large open green space. At the rear of the house is a wildlife corridor (great for sniffs). The housing estate is surrounded by Dunnikier Woods and close to Dunnikier Park. I adore dogs. They are my passion in life and I feel it is a privilege to look after them and spend time with them. I work 9:30 - 4:30 Monday - Friday as a primary school teacher in Kirkcaldy. I am flexible to work with and suit the needs of clients. I have a large four bedroom house with lots of space for pets. There are no children in the house, apart from the fur variety. I have two cats and a dog, who are all very friendly.

About: Animals have always been a part of my life and I have extensive experience in caring for them in all shapes and sizes. I am very active and can keep up with the most energetic puppies and playful cats but am also very patient by nature and find caring for elderly or slower animals just as rewarding. All animals are welcome. I have confidence in caring for anxious animals, administering most medications, and supporting training in younger animals who are still learning. As an independent designer I can work from anywhere at any time so can fit my days around what you and your pets need. I enjoy engaging with animals and take their lead on how much play and exercise time they like without needing to rush back to anything. In all things, the animals comfort comes first. When I am sitting or visiting in home, I prefer to match my schedule with whatever your pet is familiar with to make sure there is as little disruption for them as possible.

About: I am a dedicated dog owner and currently have a 7-month-old high-energy puppy, giving me hands-on experience with training, exercise, socialisation and routine care. I have also cared for older dogs and rescue dogs with varying needs and temperaments. In addition, I volunteered with Guide Dogs, providing care and support for dogs in training. I am confident handling energetic young dogs as well as those requiring extra patience and attention, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving and enriching environment. I currently work from home Monday to Friday and already have time scheduled to walk my own dog which can easily be flexed to make room for your needs. I have a fenced garden and a friendly dog of my own to keep your fur baby company and make sure they get the stimulation and exercise they need. With access to lots of safe walking routes near my own home and a car to collect and return your dog is needed.

About: I take great pride in providing the highest standard of care for your pets. I have my own family Labrador back home who is the most important thing to me. I’ve looked after family and friends pets for overnight stays and have experience looking after dogs of all sizes. I work from home and can be fully flexible. A morning walk is part of my routine, along with a lunchtime and evening walk. Your pet will get all the attention, love and care needed whilst with me. I have a fenced garden and your dog can be the only pet in my home. I have a smoke and pet free home normally.

About: Here's a tightened version that keeps all the key info while sounding warm and credible: Hola! I'm Lucía, originally from Argentina and happily settled in Leith, Edinburgh for the past 6 years. I've always had animals in my life (dogs, cats, frogs, even sheeps!) and a home just doesn't feel complete without a pet in it. Back in Argentina I had two rescued dogs, Afrika and Sandro, who I adore to this day. I have plenty of pet sitting experience through other platforms (happy to share profiles with 5★ reviews!), so while I'm new here, I'm not new to this. 🙂 My location works in your favour: I'm a 1-minute walk from Dalmeny Park, ~10 min from Leith Links, and ~20 min from Holyrood — plus my building has a lovely green garden. Plenty of safe, green options for walks! A bit about my day: I'm a lawyer by training, but in Scotland I work from home as a Project Manager for an active travel organisation. Flexible hours mean I can offer your pet real company, multiple walks throughout the day, and plenty of attention — not just a quick check-in. 🐾 Boarding (your pet stays with me) Multiple walks daily to nearby parks - Kept to their usual routine (feeding times, etc.) - Regular photos & videos - Medication administered as instructed - Always kept on-lead unless you say otherwise 🐾 House sitting (I stay at yours) - Agreed walks + playtime and mental stimulation - Basic training reinforcement if you're working on anything - Regular updates with photos & videos - Home left clean and tidy as received! - Medication administered if needed - On-lead unless explicitly told otherwise I especially love longer stays during holidays — real bonding time! For trips of 2+ weeks, feel free to ask about a discount. 😊 Your pet will be treated as family. I hope to meet you soon! ♥️ Lucía 🐾 I work from home as a Project Manager with a flexible routine, so pet care fits very naturally into my day. I can offer plenty of company, attention, playtime, cuddles and regular walks throughout the day, rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I live in Leith, very close to Dalmeny Park, Leith Links and other lovely green spaces, so dogs staying with me will have good options for safe and enjoyable walks. I’m also happy to keep to your pet’s usual routine as much as possible, including feeding times, walk times, rest, medication and any little habits that make them feel at home. I especially enjoy looking after pets during holidays or longer stays, as it gives us time to properly bond and build trust. Whether your pet stays with me or I stay in your home, my priority is to make them feel safe, loved and relaxed. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, walking preferences, medication, sleeping arrangements and any behaviour or training guidance. I never let dogs off lead unless I have clear permission from the owner. I also take time to understand each pet’s personality, including what makes them happy, nervous, excited or uncomfortable. I’m confident with dogs and cats with different needs, including pets who need a slower approach, extra patience or medical support. I have experience administering tablets, ear drops and liquid medication mixed into food for different diagnoses. I have also administered injections to dogs, and although I have not yet done this with cats, I would be comfortable doing so if required and with clear instructions. I have also cared for a three-legged cat, so I understand the importance of adapting care to each animal. In a pet owner’s home, I’m respectful, tidy and careful. I’ll keep your pet’s routine consistent, send regular photos and videos, and make sure they feel cared for while you’re away.

“Reese was so nice to Emma, he sent me some pictures and he replied every time I asked for Emma, thanks Reece.”
