About: I have been taking care of dogs for over 10 years, and more recently cats. I have extensive experience working with all sorts of dog breeds from small breeds such as Yorkshire Terriers, Jack Russells & Dachshunds to larger breeds including Golden Retreviers & Labradors. I have also fostered a dog in the past for over 7 months, taking care of his needs and ensuring he was looked after while his owners were in the middle of a house move. I own my own dogs, a Jack Russell & a rescue terrier, pug cross. I’m currently working part-time as a dog walker & dog sitter, so I have plenty of time to look after and walk your dogs, giving them the best times possible, trying to work in plenty of fun time and also enrichment When I stay at an owners home, I ensure that I follow the dogs routine to make sure it stays as close to their normal schedule as much as possible. I try to treat each dog as I would my own, giving them fun activities, fuss, treats where allowed and lots of cuddles if they like them.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, walking, bathing, brushing, drying and feeding them all, ive also had walks with 2 dogs at once with no issue. I've dealt with big old Labradors to energetic spaniels. I'm also currently doing a dog grooming and training course. I'm a student; I often have free periods, holidays, and quite a bit of free time. I have wanted to start getting out more, and dog walking is the best way for me to do that, in my mind. I'm unable to let dogs stay at my home sadly but I'm happy to stay at your home, to drop in, walk the dogs. I'll follow any instructions you guys give as you know your pets best.

About: Having recently retired from the Fire and Rescue Service after more than 35 years of dedicated service as a Fire Investigation Officer and Specialist Search Dog Handler, I am now offering reliable, professional 24/7 pet sitting services. I live in the heart of the New Forest, where I spend every day exercising and enjoying the outdoors with my two retired Fire Service dogs, who are now much-loved family pets. As a lifelong dog owner with over 20 years’ experience training and handling dogs alongside both the Fire and Police Services, I understand the highest standards of canine care, welfare, and behaviour. For your pet’s comfort and safety, I have a purpose-built K9 transport vehicle and am fully trained in K9 First Aid. Whether you need overnight care, extended pet sitting, or regular companionship for your dog, you can be confident they will receive experienced, compassionate, and professional care in a safe and trusted environment. Having retired from the fire service and being the owner of 2 pet dogs living in the heart of the New Forest I spend every day out and about in the fresh air with my beloved k9 companions. I live in a detached property within a quiet area of Fordingbridge with an enclosed front and rear garden covered by cctv. I have access to lots of nearby walks and can access the New Forest within 5 mins from my home address.

“Eleanor is really responsive, reliable, on time and our dog loves heading out for his walk with her. Would definitely recommend.”

About: A little bit about me - After deciding to stop my full time sitting business, I will now be offering my services part time. I am experienced with many animals - dogs, cats, horses, birds and more. My priority is helping you and your pets feel at ease. I understand that leaving your pets in the hands of someone else can be worrying, but I am here to reassure you that they will be loved and cared for. I make sure to send frequent updates, photos and videos. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am very flexible to you and your pets requirements. I have a driving license and my own vehicle. Please pop me a message if you have any questions. I am more than happy to answer anything. I hope to hear from you soon! I am currently unemployed. This means your pet will receive my full attention. Anytime I may need to leave the house will be fully disclosed and run past you first. Keeping your pet happy is my priority! With 24/7 care, you have nothing to worry about when leaving your pet. I am fully insured and DBS checked and have great reviews. Trust is very important when it comes to house sitting, I understand that you and your pets need to feel confident whilst I stay at your home. Building trust with you and a bond with your pets is very important to me!

About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life and absolutely love using Rover as it allows me to spend time with all your lovely pooches whilst I am unable to get a dog of my own. I have experience with many breeds, including Dobermans, Labs, Pointers, Terriers, Cockapoos and Dachshunds and I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Keeping dogs happy, stimulated and exercised is what I love. From long morning walks to engaging daytime games and evening cuddles on the sofa you can trust your dog will be having a great time and I’ll of course be sending you lots of pictures and updates throughout their stay. I am a fully remote worker so I can offer boarding at my house (provided dogs are house trained) or I can do stays at your house. My partner (also a huge dog lover) will occasionally join me on these stays. I am a remote worker so I am at home all day to care for the dogs. So walks and doggy activities are planned around my work schedule (morning walks, lunchtime play in the garden and evening activities). My only requirement is your dog needs to be well-behaved during down times as I will need to be on work calls during the day. I have experience with all sorts of different personalities so will largely follow your direction and usual routine. I know the area well and choose my walks carefully based on how reactive they are with other dogs. Regarding my house, we have a secure garden for them to explore.

“Klaudia has been amazing! We were a little worried initially about dog walking as Freddie can be challenging around other dogs on walks and this was for 2 weeks whilr we were in Thailand. Klaudia came and met Freddie on her own time to make sure everything was a good fit and put our mind at rest before we committed which was really appreciated. The updates we got from Klaudia were superb and she is an experienced dog walker who was ate confident can handle Freddie if he got himself into a difficult situation. We really look forward to using Klaudia again in the future! I would 110% recommend!”

About: I believe in providing customised care that makes every pet feel safe, happy, and loved in a home environment. My approach is defined by my special skills and dedication to peace of mind for pet parents: Customised Care: I make an effort to understand a pet's unique personality and energy level to create a personalised routine that goes beyond a standard walk or feeding. Tidy Home Guarantee: I will always clean up after every visit, ensuring your home is left just as I found it. Specialised Skills: I am experienced with puppy training on basic commands and comfortable with the specific needs of senior pets, including oral medication administration and managing slower paces.

I take my responsibility to look after your home just as seriously as I do your pet.

About: Hi everyone! I’m Anya and I absolutely love animals. I have experience as a Military Working Dog handler which means I’ve worked with lots of different breeds, temperaments and needs. I’m also about to start a part-time role as an Animal Care Assistant with the RSPCA which will give me even more hands on experience. I adore spending time with animals whether it’s walks, playtime or cuddles and I always make sure every pet feels safe, happy and loved. I treat them like my own and love getting to know all their little quirks and personalities. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I love staying active and spending time outdoors. Walks and playtime slot in easily around my schedule and I always make sure to plan my day so pets get the attention, exercise and companionship they need.

I make pets feel safe and comfortable by following their usual routines and paying close attention to their needs. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and secure. I provide a calm, pet friendly environment with plenty of enrichment and supervision. My priority is always their safety, wellbeing and making sure owners feel reassured while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since a very young age. Had them always around me and was responsible for both family and neighbours pets. Able to keep them calm and content.

I’m home most of the time and can easily adapt my schedule to suit your pet’s routine, making me very flexible and reliable for ongoing care. I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment in a well-maintained building. There’s a large private terrace, a communal garden ideal for short walks, and a large park just outside—perfect for exercise, play, and fresh air.

“Anna was amazing! Bella got along with her brilliantly! Couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Went for a meet and greet and a dog walk with Johnathan, I was very nervous as my dogs can get quite excited but he instantly put me at ease. Johnathan has a wonderful space where the dogs can relax and ample garden space for them to explore. All around there are fields and woodlands for the dogs to explore and Johnathan was confident and managed just fine with my excitable pups. Iv recently booked a stay with him and feel confident that they are in safe and caring hands.”

I am fully retired so I will have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention that they deserve. I am happy to attend, daytime, evening or weekends.
