“Henrietta was absolutely amazing with Percy. She took such good care of him and the joy and love of dogs shines through from her. I felt so reassured leaving Percy with her - she clearly devotes a lot of time and love to the dogs she looks after. She kept in touch regularly with updates and was so thoughtful and clearly cared a lot about Percy’s welfare. Her communication was amazing from start to finish. Honestly I can’t thank her enough and would happily leave Percy with her again anytime.”
“Jeanett provided an exceptional dog-sitting experience for us, especially considering it was our first time leaving our furry friend. Her regular photo updates alleviated all our stress. Leo not only seemed happy but also genuinely comfortable in her care.”
“Hands down the best dog sitters/ boarders I have ever booked for my dog Marple- and I have booked with many! Marple is an extremely high energy parson Russell and I was so impressed with how amazing and attentive Brian was in sending me lots of updates and photos and I was not anxious at all. I will definitely book him again. Marple was so well cared for and happy when she was dropped back and Brian had also spotted a potential injury that I had overlooked. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“Heather was an amazing support. I know Ivy was in safe hands and she came back tired which means she was busy, had lots of fun and made a fuss of. Heather was easy to communicate with which makes the whole progress so easy. Thank you!”
“Ronnie and Lizet were amazing with my 7 month old pup. I had to book at short notice when my son was unwell and we became super busy with a house move. It was my first time boarding my pup as well as using this app so I had to be super brave but I was very lucky in finding this family. They were very reassuring when we met them for the first time and more importantly, my pup who can get quite nervous with new surroundings, took to them immediately( dogs and kids have the best people instinct so that was reassuring!) Ronnie and Lizet sent me regular updates and photos/videos and were receptive, confident understanding and very welcoming, so I knew my pup was in safe hands while I took care of other things. They also instantly agreed to extend by a few hours from our original agreement when I needed the extra time and provided a pick-up and drop off service. My dog came back safe and happy. I recommend them. All wags ✅”
“I could not thank Anke and her partner more they have sent me loads of pictures and photos. I trust them with my owner when I leave Hugo with them. Hugo was also very happy with energetic. They honestly the best this is my first time using this app and I will forever recommend Anke Thankyou very very much we will be definitely booking again soon ❤️😘”
“Pancake throughly enjoyed herself with Andrea! I was kept in the loop with pictures of my mutt and reassured at the end of the stay what she had done, eaten and be like overnight. For a first time sleepover! Super happy!”
“Lizzy and her partner Bobby were great with my dog, Ed! They were super easy to contact and sent photo updates of Ed having a wonderful time:) he was well looked-after, taken on some lovely walks and was made to feel really comfortable at their place! Thanks so much- would really recommend”

He’s truly an amazing soul. THANK YOU!! <3”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter for Luna. From the start, her communication was fantastic — clear, reassuring, and full of genuine care. It was obvious she truly loves cats and understands that each one has their own personality. She really understood Luna’s nature, engaging her in play in a way that made her feel comfortable and happy. I loved receiving the updates and could tell Luna was relaxed and well looked after. She also went above and beyond with the practical details — keeping Luna’s dishes clean, changing her water filter, and making sure everything was spotless and fresh. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing Luna was in such kind and capable hands. I’ll absolutely be booking her again and would recommend her without hesitation.”
“Lisa was prompt in responding on short notice. Orla is a shy cat but Lisa had no problems befriending her, being to play with her in addition to feeding her. Lisa was available to provide updates and had no issues with any last minute requests/instructions. I felt safe leaving Orla and the flat in her hands.”
“She was incredibly welcoming and kind, and I could tell right away that she genuinely loves cats. My cat felt comfortable and relaxed with her very quickly, which meant so much to me. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my cat was in such caring hands. I’m very grateful for the care and attention she gave, and I would happily trust her again in the future.”
About: I’m pretty new to the cat sitting community but I LOVE cats, and all animals for that matter, and being a cat owner myself, I’ve got a lot of experience with tending to their needs. Also, I’ve done a lot of cat sitting for my sister and neighbours whenever they’re on holiday, where i’ve checked in on their cats, fed them, played with them and cleaned up after them.
“Harriet was fantastic! Truly had the magic touch with our cats - she won over the nervous ones from the moment she met them. Came back to very contented cats and a house well looked after. Can't recommend highly enough!”
“Rai was very helpful and we nad a good initial meet to introduce our cats' quirks and routines. We came home to happy and healthy cats and are looking forward to Rai taking care of them again in the near future.”
About: I am an animal-loving, responsible person with a special affection for cats. I have always loved their calm yet playful personalities, and it is very important to me that they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In my everyday life, I work as cleaner, but spending time with cats is something I truly enjoy and find very rewarding. I have had my own cat in the past, so I understand their needs, habits, and how important routine and a familiar environment are for them. I am patient, attentive, and always adapt to each cat’s personality — whether they are playful, cuddly, or more shy and independent.
“Really excellent service from this lovely cat-sitter. I cannot recommend Anna highly enough. She visited our cat every day, sometimes paying a second visit if Scaramanga wasn’t around, just to make sure, and quickly made friends with him. She sent us photos and videos every day - and even watered our plants. ”
“Yuyee provided excellent care for my cat during our absence. She was punctual, attentive and maintained clear communication throughout. While we were away, Yuyee provided regular updates with adorable photos, engaged my cat in play, and ensured she was well-fed. We returned to a relaxed, well-cared-for pet and a tidy home. Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve loved dogs all my life, spending plenty of time around the pups of friends and family. Two years ago, I met my true dogmate, Matlock, a French Bulldog who completely changed my world. Since then, we’ve been side by side almost every moment of the day (working from home means she’s basically my boss!). Together with her Labrador buddy, they’ve trained me far better than I could ever train them. Thanks to them, I’ve learned to understand a dog’s needs, moods, and quirks. I’ll bring that same unconditional love and care to your furry friend. Since I work from home, I’m able to keep a close eye on your dog throughout the day and my flat has aircon that can keep your baby comfortable all day.

About: Hi! We are Marcela and Nick. We are a dog loving married couple, who can't wait till we have a fluffy one of our own one day. Until then, we fill this void by taking care of other fury friends as if they are our own. Working from home enables us the flexibility to attends your dogs needs, such as going for long walks, plenty of cuddles and toilet breaks. I am an early bird and therefore have no problem starting my day with a quick walk. My husband Nick is an evening owl and he usually does the last toilet break of the day along with some good night snuggles. Both of our roles are flexible, allowing us to attend any needs at our chosen time and give your fur ball's undivided attention. Every dog has different needs and routines, so I ensure that this is not highly interrupted whilst staying with us.

“Best dog sitter I have ever booked 🙌🏾 Chaos and I are both obsessed with Son and her lovely dog Pepper 😍 The level of attention, care and genuine love she showed was outstanding!

“Friendly and communicative throughout. Layla was comfortable with him and everything went smoothly overall. As Layla can sometimes be a little stubborn when meeting new walkers, a bit more confidence and experience handling hesitant dogs would be beneficial, but he was patient and keen to make sure she was comfortable. Thank you for looking after her.”

“Henrietta was absolutely amazing with Percy. She took such good care of him and the joy and love of dogs shines through from her. I felt so reassured leaving Percy with her - she clearly devotes a lot of time and love to the dogs she looks after. She kept in touch regularly with updates and was so thoughtful and clearly cared a lot about Percy’s welfare. Her communication was amazing from start to finish. Honestly I can’t thank her enough and would happily leave Percy with her again anytime.”
“Hands down the best dog sitters/ boarders I have ever booked for my dog Marple- and I have booked with many! Marple is an extremely high energy parson Russell and I was so impressed with how amazing and attentive Brian was in sending me lots of updates and photos and I was not anxious at all. I will definitely book him again. Marple was so well cared for and happy when she was dropped back and Brian had also spotted a potential injury that I had overlooked. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“Lizzy and her partner Bobby were great with my dog, Ed! They were super easy to contact and sent photo updates of Ed having a wonderful time:) he was well looked-after, taken on some lovely walks and was made to feel really comfortable at their place! Thanks so much- would really recommend”
“Bacalhau had a wonderful time with Clara and Jisoo. They took really good care of him, had regular walks, followed instructions to administer medication, and received lots of photos throughout the day which is lovely! We could tell how happy our dog was at the end of the day. Would definitely book again :)”
“Weronika was a great help when we needed a last-minute sitter. She responded quickly, asked all the right questions, and was friendly throughout. We really appreciated the regular photo updates and how proactive she was in making sure our dog was well looked after. I would definitely recommend and happily book again.”
“Libor is a true blessing, my girl cat is so clingy and extremely funny when it comes to new people. However with libor maybe he’s the cat whisperer or something. Lula loved him so much I think she’s sad to be back with me lol. I’ll so happy she now has a new uncle :) I will be using him everytime. He sent in pictures & videos daily. He’s truly an amazing soul. THANK YOU!! <3”
About: I have always been a passionate dog lover and have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime in my care.Whether it's walks, cuddles, feeding routines, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I work from home, which means I have plenty of time to give attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. They won't be left alone and will have regular toilet breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I enjoy having dogs around as part of my daily routine, whether that's relaxing while I work, going for walks, or spending quality time together. I understand how important it is for owners to know their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am currently at home most of the time, so I can give your dog lots of attention and care throughout the day. They will enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of company in a safe and loving home. I have many years of experience looking after dogs and understand their needs, routines, and behaviour. I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. My home has a secure fenced garden where dogs can enjoy fresh air, play, and relax throughout the day. I treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection.

“Styx had a fantastic time with Olivia and her partner (and little Babka!). I got plenty of updates about what she was up to, and am really confident that my care instructions were followed and that Styx had a safe, comfortable and fun time during her week away. Highly recommended and I'd definitely ask Olivia again next time I need dogsitting.”
“Maria had a lovely time with Crumpet and came back super happy! Maria sent us lots of updates and photos which was great and was really quick to respond to us. We will book again!”
“Christina and Rhys were excellent sitters! Christina was really attentive to my dog, Ed’s, needs and was really easy to communicate with before, during and after the booking. You can tell that they are genuine dog lovers and were patient when Ed was somewhat clingy! I would definitely recommend for sitting with real care for dogs :)”
“Daphne and Tim are very nice and friendly people. They took good care of our dog who had some special needs. They also kept us updated by sending texts and lovely pictures multiple times throughout the day. This helped us feel reassured that our dog was in safe hands. We highly recommend their services, and we will definitely contact them again in the future.”
“This is the second time we have used Louisa & Sham to look after our Staffy, Storm. They sent me updates and photos every day. They welcomed Storm into their home and treated her like their own. Would definitely recommend.”
