“Maximus was looked after beautifully. He was kept busy and was very happy. Would highly recommend Ross and his lovely wife. Will definitely use again as Max enjoyed his stay!”
“Diana and her family took wonderful care of Ralph during our week away. The daily updates were very reassuring, and it was clear he was happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with Diana again!”
“John-Rob took excellent care of Ruki for an evening in July 2023. He was very communicative throughout the process and made Ruki feel comfortable from the moment she walked through the door. Truly professional and very kind and patient. I highly recommend John-Rob’s dog boarding service.”
“Sadie had a wonderful time with Sharon and her dog Charlie. I'm afraid if it were up to Sadie, she would have stayed with Sharon indefinitely. We are very grateful to Sharon for having cared for Sadie so well and we will be more than happy to book her again knowing that Sadie is in secure and loving hands.”
“Kady and her family are the best carers in London. They take care of your pet as if they were their own. Kady walks them every 2 hours. Kady will always be my first choice to take care of Shatzy”
“It’s not easy leaving your beloved pet for a week but I had every faith that he will be looked after with love and care with Nicolas & Yeny. Their communication was brilliant and we’re happy to comply with our requests on Bronte’s care. When we collected Bronte he was happy and content.”
“From our first meet with Alessia, we immediately felt confident and reassured leaving Kimchi in her care. She is clearly an experienced dog owner who is interested in getting to know each dogs individual needs and quirks. Kimchi had a wonderful sleepover with Alessia. She was completely spoiled with lots of lovely walks and cuddles. She will be excited to come back for her longer holiday in a few weeks!”
“It has been four instances, since we availed of Alison's pet sitting services, to look after our Twigz and we are thrilled to say, without a shadow of doubt, that not just Twigz, but Walter and myself are very fortunate to have met Alison and her family on this most amazing site (Rover). Twigz has established a unique bond with Alison's pet dog (Claude) and all on all, this established relationship is growing rapidly each time, not only with Claude, but also with Alison's beautiful dog loving family. We received updates on Twigz, everyday with photos, videos and messages. We would highly recommend this family for dog sitting, as they are way beyond compare. A big thank you, from the bottom of our hearts to Alison and family.❤️❤️”
“Sally was great with Otto, I would thoroughly recommend her services. She asked thorough, thoughtful questions before the stay and was prompt and proactive with communications throughout. Otto had a lovely stay!”
“Natalie was amazing with our dog Kyro and he loved staying with her from the pics that were sent across! Natalie was also so accommodating with our last minute booking and I would 100% recommend her - she was quick to respond, kept us informed and sent over pics. Thanks again Natalie, will definitely be coming back!”
“Nayla was an excellent dog sitter. She was very sweet with Skippy and her own little dog was very sweet and friendly. She took great care of Skippy and I would recommend using her services.”
“We couldn’t recommend Clare and Jack more highly! From the moment we met them, they were so friendly and welcoming, making sure both my partner and I felt completely comfortable leaving Bailey, our 2-year-old dachshund, in their care, especially as this was the first time we’d left him over night with someone new. They took the time to listen to all our needs and really went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. It’s so clear how much they truly love dogs, as the care and affection they showed Bailey was amazing. They kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which was such a comfort, and it was obvious how happy he was with them. They have a large garden, which was ideal for Bailey to have a run around to burn off energy and he loved having a sniff at all the smells in their garden which helped stimulate his brain. They took him on lovely long walks where he saw horses, cows and sheep, played all of his favourite games as well as enrichment activities, and gave him endless cuddles and attention. Bailey came home a very happy (and tired!) little dachshund, which says it all. We’re so grateful to Clare and Jack for looking after him as if he were their own, and we’ll definitely be asking them again in the future!”
“Stephen was great - flexible and able to help us out with a last minute request and giving regular updates on Lily’s stay. Cocker pup Max is absolutely adorable and very docile. Lily clearly had a lovely time ✨✨would recommend Thanks so much!”
“Anthony was fantastic sent daily updates photos and videos. Dolly came home happy and relaxed I would highly recommend Anthony I hope he will be available later in the year when we go away again”
“Louise was communicative and friendly. Ludo can be a little anxious on initial introductions but he seemed to settle quickly in her care. Thank you Louise and we would love to use your care again.”
“Conor and Alex were great dog sitters for Skip - we'd definitely use them again! They kept us up-to-date with loads of photos and text updates. We loved that they let our dog snuggle on their bed with them - definitely treating him like he's one of the family. Thanks a lot, guys!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Lucy received. Maria and Thanos took the time to meet with us beforehand, which made such a difference—it really helped both Lucy and me feel comfortable from the start. Throughout her stay, I received regular updates, which was so reassuring. It was clear how well Lucy was looked after and how much love and attention she was given. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Lucy with them again and highly recommend their services.”

“Naoko went above and beyond to make sure our cats were happy and had everything they needed. She sent us videos showing that the cats were eating and drinking OK and getting plenty of attention and play! ”
“In good and experienced hands, Nina bonded with Lanna quickly. With pictures of my kitten throughout the visit was very nice to see, it kept my mind at peace knowing she had some company during the day!”
About: I grew up with two cats and they were a huge part of my childhood and I've been completely cat-obsessed ever since. Since moving to London for university, I haven't been able to have my own due to renting, but I jump at every chance to look after other people's. I regularly cat-sit for my close friends - sometimes with their cat staying at mine for weeks at a time, other times I stay at theirs to keep things familiar. I've also cat-sat for family friends while they've been on holiday, so I'm comfortable in both setups. I know cats thrive on routine and familiar surroundings, so whether your cat comes to me or I come to them, I'll stick to their usual feeding times, play habits, and favourite spots. I'm also happy to administer medication if needed and your cat allows it, and will send you regular photo updates so you can relax knowing they're happy.
“Sarah is an amazing cat sitter! Reliable, good communication and understands cats! She seemed to have lots of fun visiting and playing with my cat while I was away and I enjoyed getting the updates. Highly recommend.”
“Perfect service from Valerija, as always. She looked after my cat Bubzy extremely well and sent me daily updates. Valerija had to deal with a delicate and sad situation with my guinea pig Bun and handled it extremely well. ”
About: I grew up with cats, have owned my own and also looked after other people’s cats over many years. I have experience of caring for both indoor and outdoor cats of all ages. I understand how each cat has its own personality and the importance of meeting their individual wants and needs.
“Mara was excellent at looking after our cat King while we were away. She was communicative and shared lots of updates, photos, and videos which was really appreciated! I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a cat sitter.”
“Peggy looked after our fur babies so well as usual. Checking every aspect with lots of communication and photos so we are comfortable everything is okay and ensuring no misunderstandings. They are clearly very relaxed and comfortable”
“Carolina was a dream catsitter. In a short time she formed a lovely bond with Garfield, and kept me updated while I was away. It was wonderful knowing he was in such safe hands. Thanks again!”
About: I have had cats for my entire life, currently i have two cats and a kitten, i am able to work with cats of all ages. I have a diploma in animal management which did a module on first aid, and i am able to administer medications. I have been pet sitting with my parents for 3 years.
About: 10+ years experience owning and looking after cats, including rescue cats. Often asked to look after friends’ cats whilst they’re away. We have a car so easy for us to travel locally. Happy to help, please get in touch!
“It was reassuring to know Carolyn was looking after our two cats - Mims and Bob - for a week. She provided us with daily updates and answered any questions we had about how they were doing and how they were getting along. It was easy to arrange the initial intro visit and the handover of keys.”
About: Hello! Anna will be your main contact and dog sitter, with James helping alongside. Our number one priority is to keep all pets safe, happy and loved when you’re not able to be there. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, playtime, or just making sure they stick to their routines. We treat all pets as if they’re our own. Dogs have always been a big part of both of our lives. We both grew up with dogs big and small, puppies and OAP’s, energetic and sleepy, so we’re well versed with all temperaments and making sure we give dogs what they need. We know how important it is to trust the people who are looking after your furry family member for that peace of mind, so we’ll make sure we provide regular updates and updates whilst they’re with us! We both work from home the vast majority of time so dogs are never left for long periods of time. Anna also works in a dog friendly office in Waterloo so if you’re happy, she might take it in from time to time - but this is not a requirement as we can ensure someone is always home if that works better! We both have active lifestyles and will always prioritise making sure any dogs get well exercised and played with! We have an enclosed fenced garden that any dogs can use at their leisure! We’ll always follow your lead with any routines your pet has, whether theyre allowed on the sofas/beds for example, or sleeps in a crate etc. We want to ensure your dog feels as at home as possible and we continue any boundaries you set to avoid confusion when they return home :)
“Liliya was amazing looking after my cat Midge, she spent loads of time with her and even brought her some extra toys to play with! She also sent me regular updates and photos so I knew she was doing okay. I highly recommend and would definitely use her again :)”
“This was the second time Hannah cat-sat for us and everything was as great as the first. Hannah is very sweet with our cat and sent us photo updates and messages. We'd highly recommend Hannah ”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Beckenham
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“My miniature dachshund Winnie spent a very enjoyable day with Daniela whilst I went to the office. Winnie suffers from a bit of separation anxiety so it is always nerve wracking leaving her with someone new but Daniela’s warm nature automatically put us both at ease and Winnie settled in record time after I left. Daniela is very communicative and I was assured Winnie was in safe hands - she even managed to get Winnie to go for a walk when she has recently been refusing to go due to getting spooked so it is obvious Winnie felt safe and secure too. Winnie was in great spirits when I picked her up and is looking forward to spending the day with Daniela again! Would 100% recommend Daniela for your dog sitting needs.”
“Enza absolutely loves her stays with Anna and James! Anna provided regular updates and some photos too, which was lovely to see. Enza settles in very quickly, probably due to Anna’s lovely warm nature! Thank you both for looking after Enza this evening - we would highly recommend☺️”
“Jonathan has taken great care of Biccy since the start of the year. He’s always professional and kind and has always kept me informed of what’s happened during Biccy’s stay (the good, the bad, and the ugly!) Can’t recommend him enough!!”
“John-Rob was just the absolute best. Confident and caring, completely clued up on all things dog - our dog honestly had the MOST amazing and fulfilling day. So much communication and lovely videos and pictures - really attentive and respectful of all our dogs needs and so friendly on pickup and drop off - I was also running late and they were so flexible. Thank you!! We will be back x”
About: Hello! I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, both professionally and personally. After successfully running The Happy Dog Club, a local dog walking service, I've had the pleasure of looking after dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes and personalities. I live with my husband, two teenage children, and Oonagh, our very friendly Cocker Spaniel. We're a dog-loving family and understand how important it is to find someone you trust when you're away from your pet. This isn't a large-scale boarding setup. My ideal arrangement is to have one guest dog, or occasionally two, stay with us at a time so it feels like they're on a family holiday rather than in kennels. We offer a true home-from-home environment, where your dog will be treated as one of our own and can feel settled, happy and loved. We genuinely love having dogs in our home, and Oonagh especially enjoys the company! We're happy to consider well-behaved dogs of all ages and temperaments. However, Oonagh is a young, energetic Cocker Spaniel, so it's important that visiting dogs are comfortable sharing their space with a lively and playful companion. I have completed training with the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, including courses in Dog Training and Separation Anxiety. Whether your dog is young or old, energetic or laid-back, they'll be treated as part of the family from the moment they arrive. 🐾 I work from home (so does my husband) so there will always be someone here during the week - Monday to Friday. We can also be available over the weekends for stays if required. I have a secure, fenced garden and Oonagh, my friendly and playful Cocker Spaniel, to keep your dog company. I offer a genuine home-from-home environment, welcoming just one guest dog, or occasionally two, at a time. This allows me to provide plenty of individual attention, affection, exercise and care, ensuring every dog feels settled, happy, secure and loved as part of the family throughout their stay.
“Bella was a happy bunny when she was collected. She seems to have enjoyed her time in Marina's care. Marina tired her out with her walks and ball games. Would recommend and use again. Thank you Marina”
“Ross and Lucy (and Piglet) were absolutely perfect dog sitters for Maple! I received plenty of photo and video updates of Maple throughout the day who clearly settled down quickly and got plenty of attention! Would definitely recommend! Thank you both”
“Kady is a great dog sitter, I can thoroughly recommend her. My dog Hansel has had a lovely few days, walking in tge woods, chilling out at home with Kady, family and doggy friends. Kady's been flexible with drop off and pick up times, and always responded quickly to messages.”
“Following a bad experience before with a dog sitter we were a little anxious and therefore asked to meet Diana for a day care visit before committing to a one week stay over. Diana put our minds at ease straight away and her love for animals was made very obvious straight away. What we liked and looked for in a dog sitter is that they look after one dog at a time and are therefore able to show a good amount of attention and love. Diana and her family seamed to do this perfectly, with the whole family getting involved. Would highly recommend and will now be booking in for a weeks stay.”
“Ches was with Micah for daycare. It was a bit of a last minute booking but Micah was super accommodating. Communication was great and I got updates during the day on how Ches was getting on. It looks like he had the best day ❤️ He was a happy and tired boy when I picked him up.”
“Susan was amazing. Took Sammy on short notice and help me out. I've received pictures and videos of him regularly. He was so happy when I pick him up and looked like he had fun with the other dogs. I will definitely recommend Susan and her husband, they are both lovely and so accommodating. ? ?”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I truly believe pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and respect I would give my own. I’ve spent many years around both dogs and cats of different breeds, ages, and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet as an individual. Some love long walks and playtime, some prefer quiet companionship and cuddles—and I always adapt to what makes them feel happiest and safest. My husband grew up around dogs and has never gone more than a year in his life without owning one. Ask him, and he'll say a house isn't a home without a dog! We'll welcome your dog into our home and treat them like our own. They're welcome on the furniture and will get as many walks as they need. Our Pepper is always happy to make a furry friend. ***If you’re new to Rover, first-time bookings with me get a £30 discount, and your pet will get plenty of love while you’re away! To claim the offer, simply use this referral link: https://www.rover.com/sit/basakm78087 I'm currently enjoying a career break, which means I have plenty of time to devote to your fur baby! Your dog is welcome to join our Pepper on her daily walks, and I offer boarding 7 days a week. My husband works full-time in the city but is always about to give a helping hand in the evenings and on weekends. Our home is surrounded by beautiful parks that I love exploring with our own dog on daily walks. The flat itself is super pet-friendly, and our dog and three cats are always happy to make furry friends. Our own dog is crate-trained, but there is no need for yours to be. All pets are welcome on the furniture and treated like family as soon as they step through the door.
About: 🐾 Welcome to Rest With Roo A calm, caring home-from-home for dogs of all ages, personalities, and paces. Inspired by my own beloved senior dog Roo, I offer thoughtful, personalised care with a special soft spot for senior dogs, gentle souls, and pups who may need a little extra patience, mobility support, or slower-paced adventures. I understand that every dog is different — from energetic explorers to older or more low energy , dogs with mobility issues, buggy riders, or those recovering and needing gentler routines. I’m happy to adapt walks, outings, and care to suit your dog’s individual needs, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and included. The flat is also very cool - perfect for hot summer days and there is a secure balcony for us to sit on and watch the world go by! Although I don’t have my own individual garden, at the back of the property we have access to a huge secure shared garden (more like a small park!) We’re also just 5 minutes from beautiful Beckenham Place Park — perfect for peaceful sniffy strolls, buggy-friendly outings, enriching walks, or more active adventures depending on your dog’s pace. ✨ Services include: • Overnight stays (calm, home-from-home care) • Evening and morning / afternoon weekday walks — perfect for busy owners or later work/social plans. I can offer walks around Beckenham till 7pm. • Weekend walks & drop-ins • Doggy daycare, companionship & tailored support As you’ll see from my photos. I genuinely love treating the dogs in my care like family, and Fridays often include homemade dog-friendly gluten-free treats or cake for an extra special touch 🦴🍰 With me, they’ll be cared for with warmth, flexibility, and genuine affection. After struggling myself to find senior dog care I’m keen owners with elderly dogs know there is a sitter out there who will adapt to a slower paced, special routine! Don’t worry, we got you ! Please get in touch. I’m currently studying postgraduate Law with the goal of becoming a solicitor. Most of my studies are completed from home, which means I’m able to provide a calm, consistent presence throughout the day and give dogs plenty of companionship, attention and exercise. I only take a limited number of bookings so every dog receives personalised care and shyer, dogs who don’t thrive in traditional daycare relax and enjoy their day. I offer calm, attentive care in my well-maintained home, with access to a garden for regular toilet breaks and Beckenham Place Park nearby for walks and enrichment. I have a gentle elderly dog, Roo, and I carefully consider each dog’s temperament and needs before accepting a booking. Where appropriate, I can also provide one-dog-only care. I follow each owner’s routine closely and provide regular updates and photos for reassurance.
About: I grew up having various pets, including a family dog, from a young age. My career held me back from owning my own dog until my working life changed pre-pandemic, which is when I started adding dogs to my family to help satisfy my love of dogs. My first dog is a Weimaraner who came to us as a puppy. After socialising and training him myself, from 8 weeks old, I added a Doberman to our family. She was rescued in 2022 after being handed into a dog pound, and after over coming some expected issues, she settled into my family perfectly with all family members and our resident dog. Unfortunately, in May 2026, she unexpectedly passed away. Friends, family and neighbours often rely on me to help look after and train their own dogs, so I can confidently say i can handle any dog, regardless of breed or size. I would love to add more dogs to my family but practicality and cost won't allow me to, so, with my sensible head on, I'm offering to look after others dogs so whilst allowing others to have confidence that their dog is well looked after whilst they are away from home, I also get my dog fix 😁 I am an emergency foster for a breed specific rescue, so do sometimes have another dog in my residence. I've attended various online dog training courses including dog first aid. To make sure your dog gets the full attention it deserves, we only walk 2 dogs at any one time, unless we are attending a private secure location. Sole dog walking is available if required and we welcome reactive or nervous dogs. We dont discriminate against breed or size. If you are after someone confident with your dog who is reliable and able to follow your requirements needs when it comes to taking care of your dog, please do reach out. Please note, we would always do a meet and greet before confirming any bookings. I work from home so am flexible with bookings that work around my diary. This makes me available practically 24-7, as long as my diary allows. I have ample space in my home, but your dog MUST be acquainted with my resident dog before this can happen. My own dog is crate trained, although mainly sleeps in his bed. We have a room specific for the dogs if needed, and the outside space has a full walled back garden
“Lionel seemed to have an amazing time with Steve, who kindly took him at very short notice! We wouldn’t hesitate to use Steve again. We also got some top quality photos that were much appreciated!”
“Vida and I have been so fortunate to come across Triantafyllia on Rover. Vida is such a precious little Dachshund and it is hard for both of us to let each other out sight. Trianta and Fyllia put my mind at rest. When I collected Vida, she had had a great day, full of walks and play times with her toys. I had no hesitation in making a reservation again. I can thoroughly recommend both or either Trianta or Fyllia again, but please not on the days when I need them. 😉”
“Sophia and her partner Dan are the perfect pet sitters! Our dog Destiny loves spending time with them and gets so excited whenever she arrives at their door in the morning. She’s a rescue and their care has helped her confidence grow enormously over the 6+ months we’ve been bringing her to them. They take amazing care of her and we are so grateful to have found sitters that we trust implicitly to make sure our dog is at her happiest and well cared for! :)”

About: I've been around animals my whole life - 30 years and counting! I grew up with cats, and my family has since rescued three small-to-medium dogs that I visit and care for regularly. Since moving to London, renting has meant I can't have my own pet, so I channel that love into sitting for family, friends, and fellow pet parents through apps like this one. I live in central Beckenham with Kelsey Park and Beckenham Place Park right on my doorstep which is brilliant for long walks and off-lead adventures (if allowed). I work from home three days a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday), so your dog gets a fully present companion, not an empty house. I'm an active person - I run regularly and love being outdoors, so if your dog needs lots of exercise, I'm more than up for it. Equally, if your dog prefers a quieter day pottering around the house and snoozing on the sofa, I'm just as happy with that. I take my cues from your dog and what they need. I have experience with basic pet hygiene routines, like wiping eyes and brushing teeth. I work from home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I'm here all day to give your dog company, attention, and regular toilet breaks. I live in a cosy 2-up 2-down terraced house with a fenced courtyard garden - perfect for a sniff around, a quick play or a bathroom break. My schedule is flexible, so I take a lunchtime walk or run every day and can easily fit in extra breaks for toilet trips or playtime. Your dog won't be left waiting. Your pet's safety is my top priority. My courtyard garden is fully fenced with no gaps, and all the windows open from the top down, so there's no risk of climbing or jumping out. I keep cleaning products and anything harmful well out of reach. I'm home the entire time during boarding stays and your dog is never left unsupervised. I'm happy to send regular photo and video updates throughout the day so you can see exactly how they're getting on. Before any stay, I'd love to arrange a free meet-and-greet so your dog can get comfortable with me and the house first.
About: I have cared for cats and dogs for many years. For your dog I can provide a calm and quiet house with an enclosed garden. I appreciate that each every pet has its own individual personality and unique needs. I am experienced in looking after senior dogs and managed my own reactive dog for over 12 years. I am self employed, I set my own schedule and work from home. I currently have no pets of my own and plenty of spare time to provide the routine and care your pet needs. I will only show availability for pet care on the days I have the time and flexibility to dedicate to looking after your dog or cat. My home is quiet, spacious and has a private and enclosed garden. I live with my youngest adult daughter and my other two daughters visit regularly. They are all dedicated animal lovers like me. I will take your instruction on how your pet needs to be cared for and you can rely on me to follow it at all times. I had a reactive dog for over 12 years and so am aware how hard it can be to trust someone else to care for your precious pet when you need that help. If I am visiting your home to care for your pet I can provide plenty of references to reassure you I am trustworthy and reliable.
About: Hi, I’m Sharon, I recently decided to ditch the daily London commute to spend my time doing what I actually enjoy: being outdoors and hanging out with dogs. Living in Beckenham, I’m lucky to have so many beautiful parks on my doorstep. Whether your dog prefers a stroll through the local park or a drive to a specific park they love, I’m happy to make it happen. I’m all about fitting in with whatever routine works best for you and your pet. I’ve grown up with dogs and I understand that every dog has a unique personality and set of needs. At home, I have a King Charles Cavlier Spaniel named Charlie. He’s a bit of an old soul now with his own quiet routine, which means I have plenty of extra energy to give to your pups! What I offer: * Flexible Walking: I can walk from your doorstep or drive your pet to one of our many local parks. * Home-from-Home Boarding: My house is a pet-friendly zone with an enclosed garden. I believe in plenty of cuddles and comfort over strict house rules! * Tailored Care: Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers a "Charlie-style" slow pace, I’ll match their routine perfectly. I am also trained in Pet First Aid. I’m here to fit into your routine and make sure your dog feels like they’re just visiting a second home. I recently decided to ditch the daily London commute to spend my time doing what I actually enjoy: being outdoors and hanging out with dogs. I have an enclosed, secure garden and plenty of cozy spots inside. I’m a firm believer that dogs are family, so they are welcome on the furniture and can make themselves right at home. It’s a very relaxed environment.
“Louise is brilliant!!! We bump into her sometimes in the park and Paulie does his extra special bottom wiggle for her so I know he absolutely adores her. Great communicator, always on time and shows extra care.”
About: I have taken care of a variety of dogs, from little Jack Russell's, to Golden Retrievers and even Boxers. I have an unlimited amount of love for dogs and always pay extra attention to their care and safety. I am currently working home based and part time so I will have plenty of time to care and play with your dog. Weekends available for care and playtime. Walks in local parks and lots of love and affection will be provided. I have experience taking care of dogs as I had a golden retriever myself. No children or other dogs at the home. A safe environment with garden outside and constant supervision.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have spent my whole life living with and walking them, often caring for multiple dogs at once. I currently have a rescue Kai Ken who can be a little nervous, so I’ve become very experienced in understanding her needs and managing her behaviour around other dogs. My girlfriend also has a nervous rescue, and over the years I’ve built a wonderful relationship with them through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. As well as caring for my own dogs, I’ve become the go-to dog sitter for family, friends, and friends of friends, looking after dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m happy travelling across London to collect and drop off dogs, making things as convenient as possible for their owners. Outside of dog care, I’m a trained dancer and work part-time at a music venue. Dance is my biggest passion, but I also love music and enjoy playing the guitar in my spare time. I understand that every dog is unique, and I always aim to provide a calm, safe, and caring environment where they feel comfortable and happy. I hope to meet you and your dog soon. I have a very flexible schedule and am available for walks and pet care throughout most weekdays. As I mainly work evenings, my days are generally free, apart from the occasional gym session or coffee catch-up with a friend. This means I can offer reliable daytime walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, whether you need regular weekly care or last-minute help. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Every dog is different, and I believe the best care comes from taking the time to understand each dog’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’ve looked after a wide variety of dogs, from large breeds to small, energetic puppies to calm seniors, and dogs that are confident and outgoing as well as those that are nervous or reactive. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and adapting my approach to suit each dog. I always respect the training methods, routines, and boundaries set by owners, ensuring consistency so your dog feels safe and comfortable while in my care. Whether that’s avoiding certain triggers, reinforcing training, or following a specific walking routine, I’ll always put your dog’s wellbeing first and treat them with the same care and attention I’d give my own.
“Alex was absolutely fantastic. I could see from just the way he was with Pepper that he loves dogs 😊 (and I have my reasons from making this point having used other dog walkers in the past). With Pepper having such an abundance of energy, you could see just how happy Pepper was at the end of his walk. I will gladly recommend Alex over and over again as he was truly great with Pepper. I could go on and on but I will leave it here.”

Anna also works in a dog friendly office in Waterloo so if you’re happy, she might take it in from time to time - but this is not a requirement as we can ensure someone is always home if that works better! We both have active lifestyles and will always prioritise making sure any dogs get well exercised and played with! We have an enclosed fenced garden that any dogs can use at their leisure! We’ll always follow your lead with any routines your pet has, whether theyre allowed on the sofas/beds for example, or sleeps in a crate etc. We want to ensure your dog feels as at home as possible and we continue any boundaries you set to avoid confusion when they return home :)
“Was worried about how Oscar would react but he took such a liking to John so I am very pleased ! Dad was able to go into office so this was a win win situation for us, would definitely use John's service again ??.”
About: I’m retired, I have plenty of time on my hands and have lots of experience in dog walking, house sitting, I used to run a dog kennel in Portugal and loved spending time with all sorts of fury friends! Free all day any day to suit your pup needs, just get in touch and let me know how I can help, ready and waiting! I live in a house with a good sized, secure garden, I have a couple of parks local to my house and Shirley hills is great for a wander.
About: I've had pets all my life. Initially starting with cats and then dogs. I have previously worked as a dog walker and trainer and can finally return to doing what I love. I have an Australian Shepherd who I trained to be my assistance dog. I do not walk more than 3 dogs at a time and that goes down to 2 at a time if your dog is large or XL. Reactive dogs can be walked solo ofc. I previously owned an American Akita so don't shy away from maintaining a good standard of training (Akitas can be stubborn). I love all animals and find them very comforting, and they always like me so I think I must have a good character. I'm responsible, caring and will treat your furry family member like they're my own. I can be a strict leader when necessary but also very loving and will shower your pet with affection. I also love cats and miss having one in my life! (Considering buying a kitten soon). I maintain an active and fit lifestyle so can go for multiple walks a day and keep even the most hyper of puppies entertained and engaged. My life revolves around loving and caring for my assistance dog, training dogs and puppies and maintaining high standards. We walk an average of 6 miles a day I have a fenced garden that's clean and well maintained, my assistance dog Harley is very friendly and loves other dogs and is a great dog for young puppies or disobedient dogs to learn from. Your pet won't leave my line of sight and I'll follow all instructions to a T. I know how much trust it takes to let someone into your personal space. I treat your home with the same level of care I give your pet, following your rules to the letter.

“Maximus was looked after beautifully. He was kept busy and was very happy. Would highly recommend Ross and his lovely wife. Will definitely use again as Max enjoyed his stay!”
“Sadie had a wonderful time with Sharon and her dog Charlie. I'm afraid if it were up to Sadie, she would have stayed with Sharon indefinitely. We are very grateful to Sharon for having cared for Sadie so well and we will be more than happy to book her again knowing that Sadie is in secure and loving hands.”
“Kady and her family are the best carers in London. They take care of your pet as if they were their own. Kady walks them every 2 hours. Kady will always be my first choice to take care of Shatzy”
“From our first meet with Alessia, we immediately felt confident and reassured leaving Kimchi in her care. She is clearly an experienced dog owner who is interested in getting to know each dogs individual needs and quirks. Kimchi had a wonderful sleepover with Alessia. She was completely spoiled with lots of lovely walks and cuddles. She will be excited to come back for her longer holiday in a few weeks!”
“Sally was great with Otto, I would thoroughly recommend her services. She asked thorough, thoughtful questions before the stay and was prompt and proactive with communications throughout. Otto had a lovely stay!”
“Nayla was an excellent dog sitter. She was very sweet with Skippy and her own little dog was very sweet and friendly. She took great care of Skippy and I would recommend using her services.”
“We couldn’t recommend Clare and Jack more highly! From the moment we met them, they were so friendly and welcoming, making sure both my partner and I felt completely comfortable leaving Bailey, our 2-year-old dachshund, in their care, especially as this was the first time we’d left him over night with someone new. They took the time to listen to all our needs and really went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. It’s so clear how much they truly love dogs, as the care and affection they showed Bailey was amazing. They kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which was such a comfort, and it was obvious how happy he was with them. They have a large garden, which was ideal for Bailey to have a run around to burn off energy and he loved having a sniff at all the smells in their garden which helped stimulate his brain. They took him on lovely long walks where he saw horses, cows and sheep, played all of his favourite games as well as enrichment activities, and gave him endless cuddles and attention. Bailey came home a very happy (and tired!) little dachshund, which says it all. We’re so grateful to Clare and Jack for looking after him as if he were their own, and we’ll definitely be asking them again in the future!”
“Conor and Alex were great dog sitters for Skip - we'd definitely use them again! They kept us up-to-date with loads of photos and text updates. We loved that they let our dog snuggle on their bed with them - definitely treating him like he's one of the family. Thanks a lot, guys!”
“This is Lola’s 2nd visit and you can tell how much she loves it with Arron from how excited she gets when we arrive to drop her off! Lola is always so well taken care of and I know she is comfortable and safe with Arron. I always receive updates and pictures which is great. I would 100% recommend Arron to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Thank you so much to Daniel for taking Marley at such late notice for the weekend. His whole family was absolutely lovely and so sweet with Marley. He enjoyed some lovely walks with them and another dog they had staying, who Marley quickly became best friends and they were inseparable. I was completely confident in their care of Marley as they are very diligent and safety focussed as well as being fun and showing him a great time. He came home completely exhausted, which was a sign of a great weekend! On top of the great care they provided they also bathed Marley so he was all sweet smelling and clean when I collected him, as well as washing his blanket. Thank you so much; I wouldn't hesitate to use them again in the future!”
“Gala had a great stay with Sinead and Rudy. We got regular updates and photos, and it was clear she was very well cared for. They even did some training with her, which we really appreciated. She came home happy and relaxed, we would definitely book with them again! 🐾💛”
“Alex and Wing were utterly amazing. I left my 14 nth old cocker with them for the weekend. They are really caring, attentive and thoughtful. They are excellent communicators too and totally had empathy for my worry as it was my first time leaving her with anyone. They have a lovely garden and a lovely home. Rosa my doggie felt part of the family. I would highly recommend them to anyone. They are clearly genuine dog people- you can tell!”
“Brady had an excellent time with Nelefiaa. Felt immediately safe leaving him with her, she was kind knowledgeable and attentive to all his needs along with updates throughout the day. Would absolutely book again.”
“Chunyan and her boyfriend took such good care of our senior Collie. She was very communicative and kept us updated with videos and texts on the daily basis. We are very thankful that they took our dog in despite it was a last minute request. Not only they are responsible sitters, they went out of their way to make sure our dog is comfortable and happy during the stay. We can’t recommend them enough!”
“I can’t recommend Erika and her family enough. Bruce is a very shy reserved dog and doesn’t like strangers, I was so nervous about leaving him. I had nothing to worry about. Erika spoilt his rotten, treated him as one of the family. I was sent photos and videos every day, and he looked so happy in every picture. I don’t think he actually wanted to come home haha. I will certainly be using Erika again. Highly recommend to everyone.”
“Nicola and her family are brilliant with Rocky. We can leave him and know he is well looked after and loved, so much so he doesn't want to come home! We're so grateful to have found Nicola and cant recommend her enough.”
