Pet Sitting Glusburn

“Rachel was very easy to communicate with, and Maple was evidently having a great time with Rachel. Only issue would be the worry that your pet will like Rachel more than yourself! Highly recommend”

Find us on Facebook 🐾 Pet care is a natural and important part of my daily and weekly routine, and I make sure I dedicate the time needed to give every pet the attention they deserve. I carefully plan my schedule to ensure all visits and boarding commitments are carried out reliably and without feeling rushed. For cat pop-in visits, I offer flexible morning, afternoon, and evening slots. Each visit includes essentials like feeding, fresh water, litter cleaning, and a check on your cat’s wellbeing, along with plenty of affection, playtime, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. Alongside this, dog boarding is fully integrated into my routine at home. Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family, with regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. I ensure they have a safe, comfortable, and calm environment where they can settle in and feel at home. Pet care is never something I rush or fit in around other priorities—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. Whether I’m visiting your cat or welcoming your dog into my home, I am committed to being dependable, attentive, and providing the same level of care I would give my own pets. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are at the heart of the care I provide. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in safe, reliable hands, and I take that responsibility seriously with every visit and boarding. For added reassurance, I am fully insured and DBS checked. For cat pop-in visits, I ensure your home is kept secure at all times, following any instructions you provide and maintaining your cat’s usual routine to minimise stress. I always carry out careful checks to make sure your cat is safe, comfortable, and well, and I will keep you updated for complete peace of mind. When it comes to dog boarding, my home offers a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where dogs can relax and feel part of the family. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, behaviour, and needs, ensuring they are supervised, exercised appropriately, and given plenty of affection in a calm, structured setting. Building trust with both pets and their owners is incredibly important to me. I am attentive, respectful, and committed to creating a secure, loving environment where every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away.

“Amazing as always, we always know our cats will be loved, played with and looked after. Means we can just enjoy your holiday knowing our cats are in great hands. Highly recommend”

About: I have grown up around animals, my cats are 14 and 17, with one being disabled (missing leg) and labelled as aggressive, and one very active dog who is now 5. Therefore no matter your pet's personality, age or quirks I will treat them with the same amount of love and kindness. I am currently studying graphic design at university, taking a year out to add to my portfolio so pet sitting is how I have chosen to support myself through this year. This gives me the opportunity to both work and have internship experience at the same time! I am very aware that what most pets crave is just to have someone to be around, I am more than happy to be that person! Unfortunately due to disability I am unable to take pets on long walks so most of my sitting would be at your house but i'm always happy to play, pet and keep them company!

About: I’ve always loved dogs from a young age, but as my father is blind I’ve never been able to have one myself. However, to compensate for this, I have cared for both family and friends dogs for extended periods during their trips away and have found great delight and enjoyment in this. I have plenty of time to look after and dedicate to your furry friends alongside my work. Please feel free to reach out for specific availability! When caring for pets in an owners home, I like to understand what the pets usual routine is. I strive to stick as close as possible to this during my time with them so that they do not become stressed or upset and the experience is as easy as possible for them.

About: If your dog could choose their own sitter, they’d probably pick someone who gives great walks, plenty of attention, and the occasional extra fuss — which is exactly what I do 🐾 I specialise in high energy dogs, with my puppy being young I know exactly how to tire her out, not even just walks! We do loads of fun activities to get the brain working! I’ve looked after many high energy dogs. I have also administered medication for dogs. I’ve grown up around animals and genuinely love being around them, so your dog will always be in safe, relaxed hands with me. I’m fully DBS checked and have a certified qualification in pet sitting and dog walking, so you can feel confident they’re being properly cared for. I also have my own dog, Winnie 🐶, who’s friendly and used to being around other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in companion if they enjoy company. Whether it’s a walk to burn off energy, a chilled day for company, or an overnight stay, I make sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and looked after like they’re my own. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how they’re getting on 📸 It’s a real home-from-home environment with lots of love, attention, and yes — probably a bit of spoiling too. Send me a message anytime — I’d love to meet you and your dog 🐶 Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine, shaping both my schedule and lifestyle. My days are structured around walks, feeding times, play, and providing a calm, safe environment for the pets in my care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays, I prioritise consistency, attention, and genuine companionship—making sure every pet feels comfortable, exercised, and well looked after throughout the day. I have a small fenced garden for your pets to roam freely. Lots of nice walks around my area both off lead and on lead whichever you prefer. We have different areas for the animals to be in at night if they prefer to be locked away.

“Really pleased that Nicky has done a great job in feeding the cats. All very content when I returned and lovely to get daily pictures . Would definitely recommend her services 🐈‍⬛”

About: Hello! I’m Alex and I have cared for many breeds of dogs in the past, as well as my own cat Ivy for the past 3+ years and my 2 Guinea pigs, Churro and Viktor. I have owned many dogs previously, including Greyhounds, Staffies and even Cane Corsos. Additionally, I have also owned budgies, tropical fish and a tortoise. I always prioritise enrichment, exercise, affection and mental stimulation. The standard in which I care for my animals is very high and I believe it should be the same for all. I am currently working a part time job at an equine yard, but only work around 1-2 shifts a week. Now, as I recently graduated from college, I have a lot more free time and flexibility in my life and would love to fill this space with caring for dearly loved pets. A role of this nature is something I’ve been eager to do for a long time, as I love meeting unique furry personalities. Meeting animals with different traits and characteristics is always fun and interesting for me- and providing a great level of care for owners pets is something I love and enjoy greatly. I am happy to walk dogs for up to three times a day and would be willing to go on longer ones if this is requested and/or needed for the dog. I would prefer to care for animals at the owners location, due to my house being rather small and more of a cat-orientated household. However, I am happy to do daycare and may consider overnight care at my own home if I am comfortable with the situation and if I’m informed of important details e.g. temperament, size, bad behaviours. I am happy to do weekdays, holidays (summer, school, bank) and weekends if I am free and/or given enough time in advance. I have a fenced front and back garden and access to many suitable dog walking areas. Whether it’s a 15 minute stroll around the block, or a longer walk across the moors, I am more than up for it! A play and social session down at the local park is always a blast too. I am very fortunate to live in a great area for dog walking and adventures. I do own a cat and two Guinea pigs, but they are kept in a separate room (the cat goes outside but keeps to herself). My home has a high level of security, including CCTV cameras and multiple ring cameras too. I also have a wet room style bathroom so bathing medium sized dogs and under would be possible. I have a decently sized grass back garden and a small wood chip front garden. I also have an old dog kennel which is being used for storage, but if necessary, can be cleaned out for use. In terms of caring for a pet at the owners home, I have my own form of transport so commuting to the location wouldn’t be an issue (if it’s no more than around 20 miles from my location). I am perfectly comfortable staying over night and will happily adhere to any special arrangements and requests, such as number of walks per day, giving medications and specialist requirements. I am unable to walk large dogs if they are very reactive and strong pullers, otherwise I am totally happy. I do ask that I am informed of any personality traits or issues I need to be aware of e.g. is not friendly with other dogs, reactive to cats, must wear an muzzle etc. I have no personal preferences or limits when caring for cats, as I have lots of experience and knowledge- plus they’re quite a bit easier than dogs! Again, all I ask is to be informed of any medical requirements or specialist care for your pet.

About: I have always been surrounded by pets since childhood. I currently reside in a lovely new build property in Bradford, featuring five bedrooms and a large rear garden located on a quiet cul-de-sac. I've set up a small play area inside our garage specifically for the pets. I have a five-year-old Yorkshire Terrier whom I take for walks twice a day. As I work full-time working from home , Hence I am home with my dog for most of the time. Additionally, I have installed CCTV inside the house to keep a close eye on them. The garden is fenced, providing a secure environment, and my little Yorkie is a delightful companion to keep your pet entertained. I also have plenty of pet-safe toys and treats available for them to enjoy. In my daily routine, pet care is a fundamental aspect that I prioritize. Each day begins with taking my Yorkshire Terrier for a morning walk, which not only provides her with exercise but also helps to set a positive tone for the day. After my walk, I ensure she has her meals and ample playtime, incorporating interactive toys to keep her mentally stimulated. During my work hours, I maintain my dog’s well-being by ensuring she has access to her play area and is monitored through our indoor CCTV system. This allows me to keep a watchful eye on her while I’m busy with work tasks. In the evenings, I dedicate time to another walk, providing her with physical exercise and the opportunity to explore. I also make it a point to engage in playtime and training sessions during the week, reinforcing good behavior and strengthening our bond. On weekends or my days off, I like to enhance our routine with longer outings or trips to pet-friendly parks, which provide additional socialization and adventure. Overall, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly schedule, ensuring a happy and healthy life for my dog while maintaining my responsibilities. When caring for pets in my home or a pet owner's home, I follow a comprehensive approach that prioritizes their health, safety, and well-being. Here are the key aspects of my care routine: 1. **Environment**: I ensure that the living space is safe and secure. This includes pet-proofing areas by removing hazards and ensuring that all spaces are fenced or gated if necessary. I also provide a comfortable sleeping area and ensure that the temperature is suitable for the pets. 2. **Feeding**: I follow the pet owner's feeding plan, adhering to specific dietary needs and schedules. I provide fresh water at all times and ensure that food bowls are clean and easily accessible. 3. **Exercise**: Regular exercise is crucial for pets. I take them for walks, engage in playtime, and provide plenty of opportunities for physical activity. This helps them burn off energy and stay healthy. 4. **Mental Stimulation**: I offer a variety of toys and activities to keep pets mentally engaged. Interactive toys, puzzles, and training sessions are integrated into the daily routine to promote cognitive development. 5. **Health Monitoring**: I observe pets for any signs of illness or discomfort. If any issues arise, I communicate promptly with the pet owner and seek veterinary care if necessary. 6. **Hygiene**: I maintain cleanliness by regularly grooming the pets, bathing them as required, and keeping their living area tidy. This includes cleaning litter boxes for cats or keeping the yard clean for dogs. 7. **Affection and Socialization**: I provide plenty of love and attention, allowing pets to feel secure and happy. This may include cuddling, petting, and ensuring they receive social interaction with other pets or people. By following these practices, I ensure that pets receive compassionate and thorough care, whether in my home or theirs, creating a nurturing and loving environment.

About: I have always loved looking after animals, I started my own business at 16 while in college studying Level 3 Animal Management and haven’t stopped since! I am now doing a dog training course which I am loving. My clients have always said I am reliable and I try a fit everyone in where I can. I cannot wait to meet all of your lovely furry friends 🐶❤️ I am currently working but I work hard with my time management and with other people to make everyone is happy and satisfied. I love filling my weekends with dog walks and other pet services. While I can’t accept dogs to stay in my home as I have my niece living with me. I do like to bring them round to say hello sometimes. My back garden is fully fenced off so there is no risk of anyone escaping. While at your home I will always keep it clean and tidy and adhere to any request you may have. My number one priority is keeping everyone safe.

“Vicky provides a first class service. Highly recommened. Thank-you Vicky.”

About: Been around animals my whole life. Grew up on a farm. Dogs, cats, chickens, rats, lizards, snakes and the list goes on. I have cared for senior animals and am comfortable with medication administration. I have the spare time and I enjoy all kinds of animals so I want to see if pet sitting is a good fit for me. I am a full time home maker with a flexible schedule. I can easily arrange my current commitments to fit most pet care needs. I also have a car. I have a large fenced yard out in the country on a quiet secluded road. Additionally I have access to multiple fields and walking paths.

About: I grew up with three cats and two dogs. I have a deep understanding of feline body language and emotional needs. I am patient in building their trust and happy to play with them. I have just completed my Master's degree at the University of Leeds and am approaching graduation. I'm currently in a free and fulfilling life transition, travelling and writing as a way of exploring the world. My schedule is highly flexible, and I'm available for most of the day to give cats my full attention. Pet care isn't a chore for me, because it's a natural part of daily life, and I genuinely cherish the quiet, gentle moments spent with animals. I have lived in both a house with a private garden and a high-rise city apartment, which gives me hands-on experience caring for cats in very different environments. I understand the specific considerations each setting requires: in a garden, that means monitoring escape routes and keeping an eye out for other animals; in an apartment, it means securing windows and ensuring balcony safety. Wherever I am, I always carry out a quick safety assessment so cats feel relaxed and well looked-after even in an unfamiliar space. I'm also a passionate photographer, and I love documenting the little moments of a cat's day through photos and videos. Owners can always count on regular updates, so they feel connected and reassured even when they're away.

About: I work within animal nursing, I have experienced with a variety of breeds from bulldogs to greyhounds.

About: With 2 animal courses of knowledge and looking after personal pets my whole life, working in kennels and on a farm I'm capable of meeting the needs of any companion.

About: People either love dogs or they dont. Me and my partner who is setting up her own Rover/verification profile, just enjoy their company and if we can make a few pennies along the way, whilst sharing the joys, then why not? We now have access to fields where there are no public rights of way to give dogs a safe secure spot, especially if your pet is challenging. In line with this we now want customers that would prefer to drop their dogs off with us for 2hrs or more, so we can entertain your pets better. If you think your dog would love the same, then we are your walkers. All rates are priced hourly. If you just want house care then that is also available. I work as an hgv driver for aagencies and can choose my days/ times to suit both. However my aim is to be being out and about with bundles of paws, rather than stuck behind a steering wheel all day We can only do our best for you and your pet. It does not matter how much I write in this section, but a general chat and discussion about your needs would offfer all a better idea and hopefully more trusting fulfilment of needs for all.
