“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.”
“I can't recommend Jeanett highly enough! She was absolutely amazing with my dog, Lucy. From the moment we met, I could tell she had a genuine love for animals and a professional approach to pet care. Every day, she provided me with detailed updates on how Lucy was doing, including pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Lucy was happy, well-exercised, and clearly very well taken care of. If you're looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, Jeanett is the best choice.”
“Anke and her husband are both so lovely and really looked after our Frank! We got lots of pictures and videos throughout our trip, showing Frank having a great time. We love that they took him out on walks on his own and with the other dogs and gave him lots of attention”
“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!”
“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.”
About: I am a dedicated animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs and helping them stay active and healthy. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, with a strong commitment to providing safe and enjoyable walks. I take pride in treating every dog with kindness and care, and I am eager to build trust with both pets and their owners through dependable service and a positive attitude. I currently work part time as a housekeeper I can be flexible and work from whatever time so give me a message and call and can arrange for your convenience. I have a dog myself named Leo. He’s a golden retriever of 3 years old and I live in a house with a small garden.
“Paco feels right at home with Andrea! He’s stayed with her multiple times, and she totally gets his needs, giving him amazing care every time. It’s such a relief knowing he’s with someone so caring and attentive. Couldn’t recommend her more to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter!”
“I dropped my puppy Ivy off for an overnight stay and had such a great experience. She was really well looked after, and it gave me peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. It was clear Ivy was happy and comfortable. I’d definitely leave her here again and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“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’m an experienced dog owner who truly understands the routines and care dogs need. What makes my service unique is the combination of exceptional outdoor space (Wanstead Flats is right on my doorstep for long walks and play), flexible working arrangements (if desired, I can take your dog to my office for company throughout the day), and a well-socialised, friendly dog who loves meeting new friends. Your dog won’t just be looked after - they’ll be genuinely engaged and enriched. Whether it’s exploring the extensive open spaces of the Flats, enjoying a calm day at the office, or having a canine companion for socialisation, I can provide a proper home-from-home experience. I’m happy to maintain any specific routines, dietary requirements, or training approaches you’ve established. I treat every dog in my care as I treat my own: with patience, attention, and plenty of affection. I work full time but have flexible arrangements. I typically work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and I’m able to take dogs to the office with me on other days if they’d enjoy the different environment and socialisation. This means your dog will have company and attention throughout the day, every day, rather than being left alone. I’m available for boarding on weekends and evenings. Your dog will be treated as part of my household. I have one friendly, well-socialised dog who’s excellent with other dogs and provides gentle companionship. My home is secure and I’m experienced in managing different dogs’ needs, whether that’s separate feeding times, crate training, or giving space to dogs who prefer their own company. I’ll always follow your instructions on walking routines, including whether your dog should be on or off lead.
About: Took care of family lab for 3 years, walking him 3 times a day in the local park. Occasionally house sit family and friends who have cats and dogs. I’m a PhD student living with my partner in our late 20s, currently working from home. Available during weekdays and weekends. We are able to take them on walks at least 2 times a day, and feed them according to their needs. Have access to a park 30 seconds away and 2 minutes away from the riverside. Currently do not have pets of our own but love taking care of our family dogs and cats.
“Clara accommodated our last minute request and frequently shared the updates about Mango along with sharing his pictures. Mango was super happy with them and joined us back as a Happy puppy. She really took great care of Mango. Would definitely recommend her if you want someone trustworthy to look after your furry friend.”
“What a lovely lady. Met her and her partner who were both very polite and professional,, and they kept me updated throughout Hachis stay. He looked like he was having lots of attention and cuddles and seemed so happy when he came back home. Would defintely recommend and will be using again.”
“Lizzy was amazing, accommodating and so warm and welcoming. Balou had a wonderful stay and my mind was at ease with daily updates and photos. I will be using Lizzy again. Thank you so much Lizzy.”
“Upasna is one of the best pet sitters we have ever met. We are extremely happy we chose her to take care of our beagle dog Zirnis. She immediately connected with him and it was clear they were going to have a great time together at Upasna's home. She has a lot of experience dealing with any kind of dog and we were impressed by her superior knowledge of dog care. She sent us many pictures and videos and provided us with constant updates in terms of what was Zirnis doing, where they went, and what is his mood. We really appreciate this great communication. She took him out multiple times a day, went for long walks, and made sure he had enough entertainment during the day. Upasna lives in a spacious apartment, so there is plenty of space for the dog. Also, her husband is a very nice person, he loves dogs and helps her take care of them. Once we came to collect Zirnis from Upasna's home, it was obvious he already loved them both and wanted to stay for longer. I would certainly book her again and highly recommend Upasna's service.”
“George and Dorothy were amazing hosts! First time using the app and when we arrived, I felt instantly reassured my dog Moose was in safe hands. While I was away they kept me posted on how Moose was settling in and getting on. Can’t recommend them enough”
“This is our second time boarding with Alice, and I’m so pleased with how well Lilly was cared for and how attentive Alice was in communicating with me every day. She is very transparent if she has another dog booked and always asks if I’m okay with it, which makes me trust her even more. I highly recommend Alice!”

“Anna was amazing, came home to two very happy cats. Her messages, pictures and videos really reassured me to know both cats were doing well and being lovingly looked after.”
“Michaela was amazing with my cat! Duringin our initial visit, she made sure to get to know him so he was comfortable. While we were away she sent loads of pictures and videos of him and made sure to play and give him treats. I would definitely recommend, thanks Michela!”
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.
“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.”
“Kasia was WONDERFUL! She made the first time leaving my kitten effortless and stress free. She kept me constantly updated providing the reassurance I needed that my little girl was safe and happy. Kasia has a clear love and passion for our furry friends and I will absolutely be using her again. Thank you! :)”
“Zoya is great with cats . I always book her to look after my cat Benny and I know he will be looked after well. Zoya also very flexible to any request . I cannot recommend her more .”
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs since I was 13, and my love for animals started even earlier. I grew up around them on my grandparents’ farm. I’m now a proud owner of two cats and a dog, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets. With years of hands-on experience, I’m confident providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. As a student, I’ve built a routine that allows me to balance my studies with doing what I love, caring for animals. I have free time during the day and on weekends, which means I can give your pets plenty of attention, play, and cuddles. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays. I always follow the owner’s routine to keep pets happy and comfortable. I’ll make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of play and exercise, and have company if they like cuddles or just someone nearby. I’ll also keep the space tidy, send regular updates, and make sure your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away.
“Xin Yi is amazing! She looked after Lucifer so well, not just fed and cleaned but really spent time with him. I loved regular photo updates, some of the shots are priceless ;) i could really see my cat feeling comfortable and entertained. I felt like I can really relax on my holiday, thank you <3 I have already re-booked.”
“Jane is a great sitter i strongly recommend her she loves animals and she takes extra care with my cat and gives the necessary attention and makes sure i am well informed with photos and videos. She is brilliant! She is my go to pet sitter! Thank you Jane! ***********”
“Shania did look after our cat very well. I believe she is a one of the kind/trust worthy sitter. She has been updating us with pictures videos/calls and all the related information about our cat every single day. Leaving a house key with a stranger is not easy but her service made us to think differently. I would highly recommend Shania.💕 ”
“Thanks again to Rai for a great cat sitting experience, giving us reassurance our two kittys were being well looked after so we could relax and enjoy our trip. Look forward to the next time!”
“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 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.

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. I already have a neutered French Bulldog, so I’m very used to balancing daily walks, playtime, and rest. Caring for pets is a natural part of my everyday routine, and I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and included. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with a nice air con. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets feel right at home. Just a short 3-minute walk away, there’s a beautiful park perfect for walks, play, and fresh air. Your dog will be cared for in a safe and loving environment, as if they were part of my own family.
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. I try to make their stay as comfy as possible and guarantee they are well looked after by creating a safe space.
“I am very pleased with the service Giulia & her partner provided. We have found it so hard to find people who we trust and are nearby to leave teddy with. You guys have such a warm lovely vibe and teddy had a lovely day! He was knocked out when he got home wagging his tail in his sleep he was probably dreaming about his day 🥹 I was able to relax fully and really appreciated the updates!”
About: My husband and I both owned dogs back at our home country respectively, and we both missed them very dearly. We had our dogs since they were 2 weeks old, my husband is great at training puppies and I am organized in keeping the hygiene of the pets. I am a stay at home wife, which allows me to have plenty of time to keep the pets well accompanied and taken care of. It's an apartment with just my husband and I, we do not have kids around nor other pets here so the pets will not face any conflicts and have plenty of space.

“Jeanett took really good care of Japser. She made sure he was comfortable during his first time with her and shared regular updates with us throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
“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! I received regular updates and photos which gave me complete peace of mind. She would even leave little gifts in his bag which was such a thoughtful touch 🥹 Chaos came home happy, relaxed and clearly very well looked after ❤️ I will without a doubt book again next week and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Stuart is highly communicative and takes lots of photos/videos; something I really appreciate when i’m at work and need to leave her. He takes care to consider her individual needs and preferences (right down to frozen vs regular yogurt as a snack!) and I feel happy leaving her with him.”
About: I think taking care of pets are a pretty serious job, cause they are part of someones family and dogs as cats have to be treated with love and care to make your job well. And also it's such a fun activity to do walk with pets. I'm available at the moment to work part time and temporarily these months. All weekdays and if you want weekends as well until 6pm. Preferably not every day, maybe on Tuesday I couldn't because of my studies, but I would love to take care of your pets when you need it. I could walk your dog or care for your cat at home if that is more convenient for the owner, depending on how would it be the circumstances

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover offering personalised care for small and medium-sized dogs in a calm, homey environment. Whether you’re working long hours, heading out of town for the weekend, or planning a holiday getaway, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with both cats and dogs for over 10 years. I have a 6 year old poochon and he is friendly and loves to have friends over :) I specialize in day sitting, overnight in-home stays, and holiday care—giving your dog a stress-free experience in a familiar and relaxed setting. I tailor every stay to match your dog’s personality and routine, whether they love snuggles, playtime, or just quiet companionship. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my day around the pets in my care, ensuring they get timely meals, walks, play, and rest. Whether it’s a day sit or overnight stay, I give them my full attention and adjust my schedule to match their needs. In my home, pets have a calm, secure, and clean environment with plenty of cozy spaces to relax, including a spacious back garden. I supervise all activities and keep toxic items, food, and hazards out of reach. I will try my best to stick closely to the dog’s usual routine to reduce stress.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs since I was 5 and cats since I was 18. Caring for animals is a lifelong passion, and I believe they truly transform a house into a home. My experience includes providing basic medical treatments and senior care, having looked after dogs with cancer, kidney disease, and other conditions. Charlote, my third rescue Golden Retriever, is calm, well-trained, and doesn’t bark. She’s also comfortable around other animals, including cats. I’d expect visiting dogs to have similar calm behavior to ensure everyone feels at ease. I create a quiet, cozy environment tailored to each dog’s needs, ensuring they feel safe and cared for. If your dog would enjoy a stress-free space with plenty of care, companionship, and opportunities to relax or play, this is the ideal spot! I work from home, so I'll be always around to provide care and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I’ve already been helping care for the pets of friends and family. I kindly ask for at least one week’s notice to ensure I can accommodate your pet without any scheduling conflicts, as I prefer not to leave the house for more than four hours when a guest dog is staying with us. I have a small fenced garden where pets can safely explore, but I also walk Charlote daily as she enjoys playing with the ball and running in the woods. I ensure she’s always on an all-year flea treatment, and I kindly ask that any dog visiting my home has the same level of care. In my home, dogs are welcome to relax on the sofa or sleep in my room, but not on the bed. If needed, I can provide separate spaces for pets and have a crate available upon request. However, I don’t use crates unless specifically instructed by the owner, as I believe pets are more comfortable without them. The only time Charlote has been in a crate was during her flight from Brazil to the UK.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 15, as I helped neighbors and family friends look after them while they went on holidays.

I have a fenced garden and an adorable dog who is very friendly and playful, but if it bothers you, I can separate them so they're not in the same space, since my house is big and has several rooms.

“Shuk has been amazing with Leia. She sends very detailed updates and lots of pictures, so I always knew exactly how Leia was doing on her walks. She pays attention to the small behaviours, is very careful with other dogs, and keeps me reassured at all times. We were away on holiday and it gave us real peace of mind to know Leia was in such good hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again.”

About: I've always loved being around pets, and I spent my teen years with my lovely do, Mya. I have been dogsitting in London since moving here 6 years ago, and love meeting all the different doggies around. I am a freelance translator, so I set my own timings most of the time, making it easy to organise a flexible schedule for the day. I am not able to host pets in my house, but I am more than happy to visit and/or stay at the pet's residence. I am a very clean a respectful person, especially in spaces that are not mine. I understand the importance for some pets to stay in their safe environment.
About: I am a dedicated animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs and helping them stay active and healthy. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, with a strong commitment to providing safe and enjoyable walks.

I currently work part time as a housekeeper I can be flexible and work from whatever time so give me a message and call and can arrange for your convenience. I have a dog myself named Leo. He’s a golden retriever of 3 years old and I live in a house with a small garden.
“Ainhoa walked out dog Zoe on an evening when we went to a show in central London. She was communicative and sent several updates while feeding and walking Zoe. I would definitely recommend her to care for your pet”
“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.”
“Karen was great with Henry, he took to her straight away which is always a good sign! She is communicative, responds quickly, and kept me updated throughout. She made sure he was walked and fed, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend and will be booking again.”
About: I love seeing cats happy which is a very rewarding experience. Great patience with getting them to familiarise with strangers like myself in the beginning. I'm working full-time on a hybrid basis (Mon-Fri) - twice a week at the office which is quite close with public transport. So flexible and willing to adjust times :). For the time being, I'm not hosting cats. Based on my experience from my own cat, lots of playing, brushing, cleaning litter and their food bowls regularly, keeping them close when working or cooking. However, as we know, they need their freedom to roam in the house and a pulled curtain to watch birds!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young, always had family dogs, undertaken animal study courses and volunteered at ranged charities including dogs trust and dog hydrotherapy centres! I have a small toy poodle who gets along really well with other dogs. I work from home most of the week and can take dogs out for toilet breaks and fun walks whenever needed, or play with them whenever they need some attention! My home is my dogs home so anything is for offer- toys, treats, furniture, a bath if they need it. I have a flat but lots of green areas around me which I take my own toy poodle out to many times a day.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover offering personalised care for small and medium-sized dogs in a calm, homey environment. Whether you’re working long hours, heading out of town for the weekend, or planning a holiday getaway, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with both cats and dogs for over 10 years. I have a 6 year old poochon and he is friendly and loves to have friends over :) I specialize in day sitting, overnight in-home stays, and holiday care—giving your dog a stress-free experience in a familiar and relaxed setting. I tailor every stay to match your dog’s personality and routine, whether they love snuggles, playtime, or just quiet companionship. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my day around the pets in my care, ensuring they get timely meals, walks, play, and rest. Whether it’s a day sit or overnight stay, I give them my full attention and adjust my schedule to match their needs. In my home, pets have a calm, secure, and clean environment with plenty of cozy spaces to relax, including a spacious back garden. I supervise all activities and keep toxic items, food, and hazards out of reach. I will try my best to stick closely to the dog’s usual routine to reduce stress.

I am currently job hunting, so I’m fully available with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive, consistent pet care throughout the day and week. I provide a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment in my home or yours.

About: Will care for and love your dog like my own. Have grown up with dogs and cats in the family. Whilst I prepare for a dog of my own, I enjoy walking, training and playing with friends dogs and would love to get to know your dog. I work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays so happy to have a regular canine companion on those days. I may be available on some Tuesdays but couldn’t commit to every Tuesday. I can be available on weekends, day or evening. I live in a flat on the 5th floor with a balcony. Your dog would only be allowed on the balcony under full supervision. Your dog is welcome on my sofa. There is a large park less than a 10 minute walk away. I don’t have any pets so your dog will have my full attention.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life. Growing up, our family always had pets, and I was actively involved in their daily care, feeding, walking, grooming, and playtime. Now, I live in London with my beautiful 7-year-old cat Molly, who is the sweetest and most affectionate girl. I’m very familiar with all things cat-related (litter routines, feeding schedules, enrichment, and giving medication if needed). I also still have my dog back home in my country, so I’m comfortable with both species and understand their different needs and personalities. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet I look after as if they were my own. Whether you have a playful kitten, a senior cat, an energetic dog, or a couch potato, I’m happy to provide attentive, reliable, and affectionate care while you’re away. Pet care fits very easily into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home most days in London, so I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight stays with plenty of flexibility. I currently live with my cat Molly and structure my days around her needs (morning and evening feeding, playtime, litter maintenance, etc.). This means I’m already in a pet-focused routine and can easily add care for your pets without disruption. I’m generally available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I can accommodate both regular and last-minute bookings. I’m reliable, organised, and happy to work around your schedule. I take the safety, trust, and comfort of every pet very seriously. While I’m caring for your pet in your home your pet will receive the same attentive, loving care that I give my own cat Molly. In your home: I follow all your instructions carefully, feeding schedules, medication, walking routines, house rules, and any special needs. I send daily updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and safe. I’m very mindful about security (locking doors, windows, etc.) and keeping your home exactly as I found it. I’m fully background-checked through Rover and happy to provide references. Trust is very important to me, your pet’s wellbeing comes first.

“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.”

“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”
“Clara accommodated our last minute request and frequently shared the updates about Mango along with sharing his pictures. Mango was super happy with them and joined us back as a Happy puppy. She really took great care of Mango. Would definitely recommend her if you want someone trustworthy to look after your furry friend.”

“This is our second time boarding with Alice, and I’m so pleased with how well Lilly was cared for and how attentive Alice was in communicating with me every day. She is very transparent if she has another dog booked and always asks if I’m okay with it, which makes me trust her even more. I highly recommend Alice!”
“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.”
“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.”

“Rahul was amazing with Teddy and Bleu, taking the time to really get to know them before their boarding. He is dedicated to creating a welcoming, calm environment so your pups feel comfortable when away from home. Rahul asked thoughtful questions about Teddy and Bleu’s unique care needs and carefully followed all of my instructions.I received daily updates with details on their feeds, walks, and playtime, along with a video call midway through their stay, which truly put me at ease. Knowing Rahul was caring for them allowed me to focus on business halfway across the world without worry.Thank you so much, Rahul!”
“Louisa and Sham really are the best. They were great with communication, sending updates and really loved Otto and gave the best care. He came home a very happy boy. They’re definitely gonna be our go-to sitter from now on. Thank you so much Louisa and Sham! ❤️”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 15, as I helped neighbors and family friends look after them while they went on holidays. I grow up with cats and dogs I love teach new tricks, long walks I currently work 3 hours a day, but I have enough time during the day to play with them, go for walks, and I am available for boarding every day, including weekends. I have a fenced garden and an adorable dog who is very friendly and playful, but if it bothers you, I can separate them so they're not in the same space, since my house is big and has several rooms.
