“Erin was fantasic. She was very easy to communicate with before and during her stay with our dog. She provided regular updates/photos/videos to let us know all was going well and we came back to an imacculately tidy house and a happy dog. Thank you Erin!”

“Rhian is fantastic in every sense! We have not left our puppy with anyone before because we hadn’t felt we had found anyone we fully trusted, but we couldn’t have asked for more and were instantly reassured on meeting Rhian during the meet and greet. We felt 100% confident leaving both our pup and cat in Rhian’s capable hands. She is super knowledgeable, and above all - kind. Rhian kept us updated throughout the day and I could tell how relaxed and happy our pets were when we got back. We are hugely grateful and Rem and Mocha can’t wait to have her back! Rhian was also very respectful of the house and our space. Thank you!”

“Another lovely sitting experience with Nyah ❤️ Marnie had a lovely day with Nyah and enjoyed her walks over the heath. Was wonderful to know Marnie was in perfect hands while I was at work.”

“Wow! Susan was brilliant with Thomas. Went away for a week and Susan kept me up to date with photos, texts. Thomas was happy and well looked after. Susan left the house tidy and as I left it. Throughly reccomend and will ask Susan to homesit Thomas again.”

About: I have been dog, cat, and house sitting since childhood! I have volunteered at SPCA and have always found or adopted my pets. I grew up with a golden retriever and several cats. My schedule is very flexible right now, as I recently relocated to bury st Edmund's. Hoping to make the most of my time by helping out others and getting to spend time with their furry family. I have spent many years caring for pets of friends and family in their homes. I've always felt that it's easier to keep them in their home where they are familiar and comfortable and I am the one who is in their space. They are already missing their parents (owners) no need to add more stress.

About: Ive taken care of various dogs from small to large across my life. I have dog sat for miniature poodles to labradors and greyhounds. I have a rescue German shepherd with my husband who we love to pieces! I am an animal person and love animals of all kinds! I currently work part time on weekends so from Monday to Friday i can be with your pets for as long as you need! I can be flexible to fit your schedule! I will ask some questions before I take on looking after your pet in your home, so i can ensure a safe and trusted experience for your pet! I will follow your rules and respect you and your pet!
“Stacey gave us peace of mind knowing our dog Ruby would be well looked after by her. Stacey kept us well informed with photos and texts throughout the booking. A trusted excellent sitter. Thankyou.”

“I will definitely be using Tania again! The dogs absolutely loved her, I had pictures and updates everyday and all communication leading up to the sit was great. Would highly recommend her services to everyone!”

“Louise is a wonderful cat and house sitter. She is very responsive to communicate with online. She had no issues looking after our cat (including medicating him in our absence). She also kept us well informed during our absence, with cat updates, and of course plenty of photos. We will definitely be asking her to sit for us again, thank you Louise :).”
“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.”

About: Hey! I am passionate about providing calm, reliable, and compassionate pet care. With hands-on kennel experience and years of caring for my own rescue dogs, I have a strong understanding of dogs with anxiety, reactivity, and additional care needs. I believe every dog deserves patience, love, and care that works for them as an individual. Offering dependable dog walking and drop-in visits designed to keep your pets comfortable, exercised, and happy in their own environment. I have a retired racer greyhound and a Romanian mongrel rescue and so I am very keen on looking after dogs ranging in needs and different approaches. I am happy to look after all breeds of dogs and listen to how best to take care of your dog⭐️ I work Monday-Wednesday as a Dental Nurse and am home Thursday-Sunday to offer walks and drop ins for your doggies.

I also provide companionship, enrichment, fresh water, medication if required, and regular updates for owners’ peace of mind. I will take lots and lots of photos don’t worry!🫶🏼 With experience working in kennels and caring for rescue dogs throughout my life, I am confident handling dogs with additional needs, anxiety, or reactivity. I approach every pet with patience, understanding, and positive handling to help them feel secure and relaxed. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets are treated like family, with plenty of attention, exercise, rest, and one-to-one care. Obviously if they were in my home they would need to be happy to be around my two babies but as long as they’re okay mine are very friendly!
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and I am hoping to work with animals as a full time job in the future. I am currently studying Animal Management at college and am hoping to go to university next year to study Veterinary Physiotherapy, so that I can achieve my dream of helping animals. I have previous work experience at the RSPCA looking after a range of dog breeds, including larger breeds like Huskies and Cane Corsos as well as small breeds like Chihuahuas and Terriers. During this experience, I have helped to walk dogs, clean out kennels, feed and play with dogs. I have also gained experience working with cats, rabbits, birds and other small animals at the RSPCA. I currently have a dog, who is a springer spaniel x poodle called Doodle, and a cat, called Pancake. I spend much of my free time taking Doodle on walks and playing and cuddling with her and Pancake whenever they want to. I have also on many occasions looked after pets of friends and family, including labradors, spaniels, jack russells, beagles, cats and rabbits. I am currently a student and am at college 3 days per week. I typically have full availability on weekends and am usually free on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, as well as most evenings. The safety of your pets will always be my number one priority and I will ensure that I keep an eye on them so that they are safe and happy. I will listen to, follow and respect any rules or boundaries that you have when looking after your pets to keep both you and your pets happy and comfortable.

“Gary was absolutely brilliant looking after our Frenchies, Remi and Buster. It’s clear that he genuinely loves animals and treats them with great care, kindness, and attention. He took excellent care of them, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and followed everything we requested perfectly. Gary is a very reliable, friendly, and caring person a true animal lover. We felt completely at ease knowing our boy and girl were in such good hands. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter and we will definitely use him again in the future. THANK YOU GARY 🐾 🐾”

I am at home most of the day except when I'm at the gym in the morning, my daily routine is flexible so I always have time for walks and I'm often in the garden or doing chores around the house, under the watchful eyes of your pet! I have a fully walled garden and lots of green walks straight out my front door. Pets are welcome on furniture and beds if that's what their used to at home. I try to follow their home routine as far as I can. I use a local secure dog park with a pool if required for the additional cost of the session.
“Danika spent the day with our 6 month old lab and was great. She was very quick to respond very communicative. Only being 6 months old our lab can at times be a handful, but Danika did a great job and we'll certainly book with her again.”
