House Sitting in Gloucester

“Kaylene looked after Basil while me and my now husband got married. She did an amazing job and Basil was well looked after, she even went to the effort of sending me some photos while Basil and her were hanging out. She was extremely attentive to the individual needs of our dog, we had met with Kaylene twice before she came and looked after Basil for the day/night which was really important to us and good for Basil being a rescue. Her communication was fantastic and we simply cannot fault her service, we will certainly use her in the future and would recommended her to anyone who needs a dog sitter. Thank you so much Kaylene!!!”

“Sophie looked after our dog Lachie and cat Billy for 2 nights whilst we were away at a wedding and we couldn’t fault her. We had loads of photos sent through daily, messages to let us know they were okay, the house was immaculate when we got back and the animals were happy! Will definitely look to re-book in the future and recommend”

“Rebecca was wonderful with our puppy Maple this weekend. It was the first time that we had left her with anyone else and she was a star. Maple had lots of fun and Rebecca sent a few updates throughout the day which was lovely to receive, especially given the first time apart. House was lovely and tidy when we go back. Will certainly be booking Rebecca again and we think Maple misses her already ☺️”

“Wendy was great, Tony can be a bit nervous with new people but she was so patient and gave him the time that he needed! Wendy kept me updated throughout the stay and sent me lots of photos! Tony was well cared while I was away and the house was as I had left it. I would definitely recommend Wendy and would ask her to care for Tony again in the future.”

“Our first time using Kristhea. Very impressed, lots of updates throughout the evening and Anika loves her. We had a great evening out knowing our Husky was being well looked after. I would recommend and we will be using Kristhea again. Many thanks.”

Anthony W.

“Hannah was great and Tony took to her straight away! Very communicative, sent lots of photos and updates and asked anything she wasn't sure of. Tony was very happy when I returned and I could tell he had been well looked after! I would definitely recommend Hannah and wouldn't hesitate to book again!”

Emily W.

“Emily was excellent!! Very flexible and approachable. She made a point of coming and visiting the dogs - one young and lively and the other older who needs daily medication - before we went away and arrived in plenty of time on the day we departed to make sure they were settled and happy. Whilst we were away she loaded pictures daily and commented on what activities they had done during the day. She took care of the home which was very tidy when we returned and watered our plants. All in all brilliant and we’ve already re-booked !”

“Jamie was amazing! This was my first time using a sitter and he really put me at ease. He took great care of my 3 dogs, sent photo updates, and made sure they were happy all weekend. Couldn’t have asked for better - highly recommend and will definitely book again.”

About: Growing up, I have always been surrounded by a wide range of Dogs and Cats. Whether that’s my own or a family members. this is where I have grown the love and passion to do what’s best for them and their welfare. I have just finished studying at SGS Stroud College and I have obtained a diploma in Level 3 Animal Practical. I’m currently waiting for my results for my most recent course which was a BTEC National Extended Diploma in Animal Management Level 3. Throughout, my three years at college I have completed a wide range of experience in Animal based sectors some of which include: Veterinary Practices, Doggy Daycare, Dog walking, Pet Sitting, Physio and Hydrotherapy, Equine yards, Animal sanctuaries and I currently volunteer at a Cat Rescue Centre. Not only have I gained external experience but throughout my course, I have gained experience on reptiles, avians, small to large mammals and aquatics. I care about animals and their welfare and it’s at the top of my priority to give your animal the attention and care that they require. I would love to carry out their routine like you would: feeding them at the same times, taking them on walks for the same lengths and if they require me to take them to the vets, hydro or physio I’m willing to do so, just let me know. Your animals comfort, happiness and wellbeing is all I care about when I’m with them so letting me know their needs I will meet these to the best of my ability. I look forward from hearing from you and getting to know your lovely animals. I’m currently a student at SGS college, meaning I have plenty of time to dedicate to your animal and their needs. I’m free from monday - Wednesday after 2:30 and Friday all day as well as both Saturday and Sunday. Let me know when you require my services and I can get you booked in. While looking after your animals I’m sure you would what to know what type of care I will be providing to them during the time that they’re with me. - toilet runs during the night if required - feeding routine - exercise schedule -leaving the tv/radio on if required -leaving a light/fan on in the room that they are in. - keeping the dog on the leash if required -administering medication -providing play times -taking them to appointments -providing mental stimulation Whatever your animal needs for them to feel safe I will provide them. If there is anything you feel like your animals need and I haven’t listed just pop me a message and I’m sure I can provide it for them.

“Lucy wasn't the easiest dog to look after due to just having an operation but Katie followed our instructions and treated our house in a respectful manner. Would recommend and would use Katie again.”

I allow dogs on my sofa and in my bed for cuddles. I have space for a crate if owner can provide for their dogs comfort. I live in a bungalow so suitable for elderly dogs.

About: I’ve lived with cats all my life—my family has always had cats, and being around them feels natural to me. I genuinely love their presence, whether it’s sharing quiet company, playing together, or simply respecting their space. For five years, I volunteered at Felixandia Cat Shelter in Como (Italy) where I cared for cats of all ages and personalities. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, and most importantly, offering affection and comfort—always letting the cats decide if they wanted cuddles or just calm companionship. I deeply respect every cat’s unique character. Some are social and affectionate, others more independent—and I’m happy to adapt to what makes each cat feel safe and content. My goal is always to create a calm, loving environment where your cat feels at ease while you’re away. I work full-time Monday to Friday (half-day on Fridays), which means I’m available for cat visits and care in the evenings during the week, as well as throughout the weekends. At the moment, I’m not able to host cats in my own home since I’m renting, but once I have my own place, I’d love to offer that service too. For now, I’m more than happy to come to your home, making sure your cat feels comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m flexible and always willing to adapt to each owner’s needs and requests.

“Antonia was lovely with my dog that can be nervous around new people. She went above and beyond and provided regular updates and I would highly recommend”

I’m always on the go but will answer any messages as soon as i can. I have a well enclosed very large garden with 2 friendly dogs to play with at my house! Lots of lovely walks to offer close to my home, and if your dog copes well in the car I can drive to a few other spots a bit further afield for longer days and walks.
