“Rhea is such a kind person and so amazing with Cleo! Cleo was super excited to see her today. Rhea communicates all the time and sends me lovely photos :)-”


“Felt really confident leaving our two cockerpoos with Keighley. She did a site visit first and found out all about the dogs and her communication was excellent throughout. She let us know when she arrived and kept us updated. Couldn’t be more pleased - an excellent and reliable pet sitter.”


“We couldn't be happier to have found Flavia! Amazing sitter who looked after Baxter and our home perfectly while we were away for a week. Baxter was so relaxed with her and it was great knowing he was being cared for so well and happy in his own home and with his usual routines. Flavia has always been super punctual and great at communication. We got messages and photos of Baxter throughout her stay so we could see just how relaxed and happy he was. She was also very understanding when we had to make a slight change to our booking. She kept our home spotlessly clean and tidy. I think Baxter is actually missing all the 1 to 1 attention he has had for the last week! We will definitely be booking again. Thanks Flavia 😊”


“Dan was fantastic. On booking, Dan suggested that we all met before confirming the booking. Duke took to Dan immediately and we to felt more at ease. Dan supported us on what he needed to support Duke while we were away, we had not done this before. Dan communicated with us throughout our break on how Duke was doing, pictures too. I was able to relax and it felt so good to know that Duke was in excellent care in the comfort of his own home. Our home was all tidy and clean for our return. I highly recommend Dan, a great chap with an obvious love of animals and an ease that puts you at ease. Thanks Dan Jennie, Paul and Duke.”


“Nasima came back to look after Raffie for a second time on New Year’s Eve! Nasima is such a wonderful and caring person who is incredibly skilled at looking after pets. Raffie was absolutely over the moon to see Nasima when she arrived, and settled with her almost immediately. Nasima will continue to be our first port of call for pet sitting. She is awesome!”


“Lovely girl looked after our dog Barney so well,and our cat socks. Barney was completely chilled out when we got back after our night away . Definitely recommend Rebecca. Thank you again”


About: I have a German Shepherd and a Chihuahua, so I am experienced in taking care of large and little dogs. I am more than happy to take care of any dog and my own dogs are very friendly. Any questions please feel free to message me. I am currently a university student in Manchester, but I’m in Portsmouth during the holidays where I live with my mum, dad, brother and sister who all love dogs. I am always home and am available any time, there is always someone around and the pets are never left alone. We have a reasonable sized garden, which is completely safe. Our kitchen is open plan so there is lots of space for the dogs to roam around.

About: I have had dogs/pets since I was a little girl, love all dogs, always bond well. I used to work at the local doggy day care and loved every second. Always went the extra mile to make sure they were extra happy! I am currently on leave for work up until November but, I have a few holidays. Please refer to my calendar for actual dates. Some days I’m not available for a couple of hours. but free the rest of the day so just drop me a message if I’m unavailable on a day you’d desire If you have any questions, please just drop me a message! :) I have my own place and open to taking care of your pets in my home. I’m always polite and respectful of others homes. I have been asked in previous years to look after other pets, such as cats and rabbit.

“Michelle and Phil were simply fantastic sitters. Buster was very happy and thoroughly spoilt. They gave him super care and he enjoyed all his special outings. The photos sent during the holiday gave me such reassurance. Highly recommended to all.”


“Hannah did a fantastic job of looking after our mini zoo during half term. Our 2 dogs (a sprocker and a collie) adored her and i think our cat wanted to go home with her! We also have guinea pigs and bird aviaries and Hannah kindly agreed to look after these as well. Thank you so much Hannah!”

About: Meet Louis – Your Friendly Neighborhood Dog Walker 🐾 Hi, I’m Louis! I’m just starting out as a professional dog walker, but my love for animals has been lifelong. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior dog, I believe every pet deserves patient, attentive care—and that’s exactly what I promise to give. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well-exercised during every walk. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior, and I’m always happy to adjust the pace or route to match their comfort and needs. Whether your dog loves energetic runs or slow, sniff-filled strolls, I’ve got it covered. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and totally in love with animals, I’d be honored to walk your furry friend. Let’s get those tails wagging! 🐶💚 As I can be very flexible with working with others as my own working schedule with work and every day needs, with keeping myself extra fit having fun with animals. When in someone’s property I would always be very respectful clean polite with the pets being my priority as in safe and comfortable at all times

“My Floof is an anxious dog with extreme separation anxiety, but quickly loved Kate and was relaxed while I was away on a trip. I got lots of cute photos of them having cuddle time. I have come home to a happy, healthy dog, so I am very pleased.”


“Carole has been amazing with our pup Elsa She took great care of Elsa when we were not there and sent us plenty of updates She is a very responsible pet sitter who understands your pup's needs Very well. Must recommend for your pup.”


About: Hey there! First things first, I completely understand your hesitation about letting someone else care for your beloved companion. So, let me share a bit about myself. My name is Jessica, and I live in Portsmouth. Pets have been a cherished part of my life for as long as I can remember. Dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles—you name it! Back at my family home in Kent, we have two lovable dogs: Ruby, a sweet Staff X Lurcher, and Boomer, a unique Patadale X Chihuahua X Silver Lab (I know, it’s quite the delightful mix with a long story of its own!). I'm genuinely excited to offer my services because, at the moment, I can’t have a pet of my own. This way, I’m not only helping wonderful people like you but also getting my daily dose of cuteness and the chance to care for your pet just as much as you do! With a diploma in Animal Management, I have a good foundation of knowledge about various animals. I eagerly look forward to getting to know you and your precious companions! I currently work part-time remotely, which gives me plenty of precious time to spend with your gorgeous pets! I'm more than happy to drop in during the day or evening for check-ins and walks, or even stay overnight to care for your little ones! I have experience with a few different breeds of various sizes. I’m an enthusiastic walker, and since I don’t have outdoor space at the moment, I’d love to take your pup out for a walk or two! My flat is not just cozy; it’s a warm and welcoming haven for animals! Occasionally, my partner’s pups come over to stay the night, and they always seem so incredibly happy here!

“A delightful, fun young lady who was a pleasure to invite into our home. She immediately bonded with our large dog and he was very calm and happy in her company. She kindly sent us regular updates on or dog throughout the evening so we were confident he was happy. A joy to meet and will definately use again. Thanks Victoria ( Hi Otis!)”


“Natalie looked after my dog and cat in my own house for 10 days. She was amazing with both the animals. My dog was walked at least twice a day and played with so much, given lots of love and attention. The cat was also given loads of attention when she was in the house and it shows how much animals love Natalie by both of their reactions to her. She went above and beyond with both of them and even with looking after our house in our absences. I would recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a pet sitter, we were anxious at first as it's a big leap of faith but Natalie made us feel safe and secure in our decision and helped us at very short notice. I will definitely be using Natalie again if she is avaliable when we are next away. I feel this review doesn't do the love and care Natalie and all her family show to the animals they look after, I was sent so many videos and pictures showing how well both animals were and what they were doing. Thank you for being amazing.”


“We were worried about leaving our elderly dog, but Aaron reassured us on his second visit to meet Bruno and go over the arrangements prior to our departure. It's a number of years since Bruno has been in kennels - he didn't cope with them well. However, Aaron staying in our home and being so attentive proved to suit Bruno, and it was lovely to receive photos and know that he was happy whilst we were away and that he looked happy and well on our return.”


About: Confident caring for animals big or small. Live in a flat so unfortunately can't have a dog of my own but regularly walk and sit friends and family dogs. I work weekdays so can be available very early mornings and/or late afternoons/ evenings and weekends. No children, so can be available at short notice. I am responsible and wouldn't knowingly but your animals health or safety at risk. I can follow directions on care and can keep in contact with you, should you like me to.

About: Me and my partner Ben, 25 & 28 have both had pets our whole lives. We have loads of free time in the day and would love to look after your pets! I also have an enhanced DBS. We have free time in the days and weekends, one of us can always be home, and we have so much free time for walks and playing! We have a fenced off back garden with plenty of space, and shade. Lots of space indoors, nice and secure. And a lovely walk nearby. The gates to the garden are padlocked, and the house is alarmed.
