“This was our first sitting with Emily and hopefully the first of many! Our meet and greet was great and invaluable with our family making a huge fuss of Emily who obviously knows what she's doing! Emily's communication has been excellent, lots of questions and intuitively picking up on specific areas important to us. Emily has been flexible, having to change plans to work around us and kept us informed of progress with lovely pics and comments. House and family all good and happy on our return. Looking forward to future sittings.”

“Jo has just looked after George for a few days. Brilliant experience. We met before our trip so she could meet George and establish what he needed. The communication was really good, George loved her and the house was super tidy when we got back. First class service and I can't recommend Jo highly enough.”

“We had previously hired Corben for a day time dog sit and did not hesitate to contact him again when we then needed an overnight stay with our dog. Corben was very flexible with the timings and very attentive to our needs to allow us to make the most of our night away. Corben was great with our dog and provided regular communication on how she was getting on. I can't recommend Corben enough. Knowing our dog was safe and happy allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our event without worry. We will definitely be booking Corben again for any of our dog sitting needs.”

About: I am a designer who works from home, after always having dogs I miss their company a lot. Instead of getting a dog I decided to host dogs in my house. I live in a cottage in St Austell, tucked away in a quiet part of this seaside town. I have a lovely big garden with sunshine and shade where they can play or potter about. The cottage is cool and quiet and has everything a doggy would need. Your dog will never be left alone as I work here too. I only take one dog at a time or dogs from the same household so they will have a really personal experience that will be tailored to them and their needs. There is a wealth of glorious beaches and river trails only minutes away for playtime, walks and relaxing. I try and make every day like a doggy holiday even if they are only staying a short time. I have owned dogs myself as well as having grown up with one always in the household. I had my last dog from a puppy and fully trained him, we did agility classes together too. I have also owned a rescue dog in the past who I worked closely with a trainer for to understand his body language and his needs so I do have experience with dog behaviour. I work from home during the week so your dog will have lots of 1:1 attention as I need to take regular breaks away from the screen. I always walk in the morning, lunchtime and the end of the day as a way to get outdoors and it’s such a treat to do that alongside a doggy friend. I can offer a pet free, smoke free house with a fenced in garden. Please do bring anything your dog likes along to make them comfortable, maybe a bed and some favourite toys for playtime

“Wow, we were so lucky to have found Ilona, she was the perfect person to look after our border collie, Ben. We rescued him recently and so he is quite needy and yet Ilona took everything in her stride and made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. She knew exactly what Ben needed, especially in the crazy heatwave, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone to look after your dog(s). She responded very quickly to my booking request and was clear about timings and was so reliable and very trustworthy. She also kept us updated with photos and took him for walkies in the woods as it was shaded.”

“What a lovely caring man David is, he kept in touch with me throughout my absence regarding my 2 dogs, they were walked and fed, the house was clean and tidy on my return and jac and Harvey were 2 happy content dogs. Will definitely be using him again. Thank you David.”

About: I trained me Sprocker Spaniel who is still a puppy. This involved basic commands and recall. He is well behaved, well socialised and a happy dog :) I run my own business so have good flexibility during the week and at weekends. I won't be out for more than 3 to 4 hours and I can walk, feed and socialise them inbetween. I will be there to look over them most of the day..I may leave for 3 to 4 hours but will make sure they've been walked and fed before so.

“Many thanks to Kyal for a super house and dog sit. Great communications and photos, house left clean and tidy and bedding washed and very happy dogs here when I got back. I find Kyal reliable and polite and he is obviously a dog lover. I hope Kyal will be available to do future bookings for me.”

“Cara has been amazing in caring for my 3 dogs, cat and fish. We originally contacted Cara for a house sit later in the year, but had a family emergency that meant we had to get a house sitter at short notice, and Cara came to our rescue. She kept in regular contact with us, both before and during the sit, and sent pictures. Knowing Cara was taking such good care of our animals meant we could focus on what we needed to during our time away. On our return our house was left spotlessly clean, and she even washed the bed sheets! Thank you Cara, you have been amazing”

“George was really understanding about Phoebe's delicate nature, and loved and looked after her as I would do. He is an excellent house guest, and I would highly recommend him. I shall be booking George again when I next go away.”

About: My mum had a full time pet grooming business growing up so from 13 years old I always wanted to step in and help wherever I could even if it was to give out treats, I love both cats and dogs and have been pet sitting both aswell as reptiles for 3 years, i can give oral medications if necessary and i’m confident with care for disabled animals who may need expressing etc. i have personal experience with deaf and blind animals. id love to help you out where possible for dogs and cats of any size, breed and temperament :) I sometimes work one day a week on a Sunday in the afternoon helping my mum with her dog grooming business if necessary so I have lots of time to give to other pets and I’m super flexible with notice! :) At the pet owner’s home I am more than happy to do walks as frequently as possible I’m a very active person so this is no problem! I’d love to make the sitting unique to each pet and owner and making notes to your specific routine is a must, my communication is very fast and you can contact at any time, I’m not afraid to contact you if I’m unsure on something.

About: Born into a veterinary household, I grew up caring for every type of animal — from hamsters and tortoises to lambs, cats and dogs. As an adult, I’ve always shared my home with dogs, from tiny Shih Tzu puppies to giant Newfoundlands. This lifelong experience has given me a natural instinct for understanding what every dog needs to feel safe and loved. At the points of life where Iv been able to live with animals such a university or housing restrictions I have volunteered at either a dog walking charity or a small grooming business. Currently taking a break from cardiac Nursing, as youngest child is in their first year of school. Once school run is done we will either head to Trevaunance Cove, Portreath beach, Idless woods. Whichever you your pup would prefer. Then home for a snack & snooze, while I complete chores Then again after school pick up have a fun run down Coosebean woods/ cycle track just at the back of my home. I have a large garden that has some holes in the hedge-line, however your dog will be supervised while outside. No toxic plants. Always have access to fresh water, inside and outside

“Jamie was great with Tinker and looked after her in my home at short notice. He kindly came over ahead of the sit to meet her etc. She clearly very relaxed and contented when we got home.”

About: I am currently available for the Eater Holidays! I have looked after pets since I was a child, from having rabbits, cats and most recently bringing up my own dog since he was a puppy. Whilst working from home in the last 5 years I provided daily dog care for my sister's senior pug - ensuring she was always well looked after, snuggled and walked over my lunch break I have been the primary carer for my 5 year old high energy dog, raising him from a puppy, taking charge of his training to become a well rounded obedient dog who is well socialised and has a good array of tricks/commands As a child I looked after 3 family cats 2 from kittens, through to them being senior cats and crossing the rainbow bridge 2 of which were 19 years old. I have also rescued young kittens when I came across them in abandoned box, we were with the local shelter as fosterers until they found their forever home All around, I am a fit person excited to look after your furry family and make your life a bit easier. I am pretty flexible and currently have availability whenever fits around your life :) I am currently not working, having returned from an overseas trip with my husband, so am available to fit around your schedule. I have my own vehicle, with business insurance so would be available to come take your pets on an adventure. I am also a national trust member, so beach trips or heading to Saltram House are adventures I would be happy to have. I enjoy running, so if you have a high energy dog I would, after a time be open to bringing them on 3-5km runs with me - on lead only. At the moment I am not offering at home care, as I think it is important to establish myself out of the house, with trust before bringing dogs in to my own home. I would however be happy to do some light training with dogs, including socialisation with my own dog, Max or helping them learn to settle in busier environments, or just having a good old run around.

“Saskia looked after our two dogs for 5 days - she did a fantastic job, both dogs were so well looked after and were calm and happy on our return. She is trustworthy and professional and I would 100% recommend to anyone who needs any kind of dog sitting or walking services!”

About: I’m a marine biology student who misses her black lab from home, lots of experience looking after friends dogs for extended periods of time. I’ve just finished my degree and am now working part time. I am home during the day most days and am flexible in my availability. I have a fenced garden and no other dogs in the house. I will listen to and stick to your instructions, caring for your dog the way you know is best!

“We highly recommended Sophie as a dog walker and sitter. We have a very anxious border collie who is a rescue. He has a slow burn with people and Sophie dealt with it like a champ. She started working with him the beginning of June, visiting him and working with him to build trust before taking him to the back garden and then eventually for walks and finally staying at our house for a full week to watch him without incident. Fair to say Murray loves Sophie and gave her lots of cuddles. Sophie has a very calm and kind demeanour that Murray took to right away. We will definitely book Sophie for all walks and pet sitting going forward.”

“Thank you so much Sophie & Nick. My dog is very anxious and has separation anxiety. Sophie & Nick took the time to get to know him and gently introduce him. It's clear to me how much they care about dogs, as my boy was very well looked after. Sophie sent lots of photos snd regularly updated me on how he was managing. Highly recommended and will certainly book their services again.”
