“Jonathan has taken really good care of my dog Messina. Messina is a nervous dog, Jonathan has been spending lots of time playing with her and taking her around. Messina is relaxed and happy. And we have got constant updates. It really puts peace into our hearts when we were away.”

“Jennifer was amazing! I was initially a bit nervous about leaving Bruno for several days during the holidays, but Jennifer made the whole experience so stress-free. She kept me updated with tons of pictures and shared all the fun activities Bruno was enjoying. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and I’ll definitely be leaving Bruno with her again in the future!”
“Elizaveta was fantastic! She was great with our dog and provided regular updates and photos. After a scheduling error on my end, she was more than accommodating and went above and beyond. We will definitely be booking her again. Couldn't be happier!”
“Francini is the best! She made it so easy for me with a late booking and took the best care of my crazy frenchie. There’s a reason she books out fast, if she’s free you’re in luck!”
“Rachel looked after our little cocker spaniel puppy and did an absolutely amazing job. She treated him like her own and followed all of our instructions perfectly. I would definitely use Rachel again when we need someone caring to look after our puppy”
“Hazel stayed with Simon and Cefi for 3 weeks. Simon was absolutely incredible with Hazel and sent us lots of photos daily. Hazel looks very happy in the pictures, which gave us a lot of comfort especially it is the first time we were away from Hazel for such a long period of time. Hazel had a great time playing with Cefi and going on fun adventures on weekends. We’d definitely board with Simon and Cefi again!”
“Anna took great care of Artemis for three weeks! My dog came back healthy and happy and full of energy. I received plenty of photos and did not worry about my dog while she was with Anna.”
“Tainá is one of the best dog sitters we’ve had! She is super friendly, followed all of the care instructions for Lily, sent lots of lovely photos and kept me updated at all times. Lily came back super happy and relaxed and in all the photos she looked extremely comfortable. Thank you so much and we’ll definitely return ❤️”
“We could not have asked for a better sitter as Rodrigo took amazing care of Miru and he showed incredible care & love for dogs. I would no doubt chose Rodrigo again as a sitter and would recommend him for anyone of my friends”
“Danny provided an excellent home for Bert while we were away over Christmas. He was super flexible in regards to drop off and pick up times and sent lots of photos to keep us up to date and let us know how Bert was getting on. Fantastic help and took any pet related worries off our plate while we were away! Thanks Danny!”
“Alice took a great care of Ruby, she’s kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and photos. Ruby seemed really happy and comfortable during her daycare and I’ll definitely use Alice’s service in the future :)”
“We had a fantastic experience with Amelie and would highly recommend her. From the very beginning, she was incredibly friendly, professional, and communicative. She kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to see just how happy our dog was in her care. We have a high-energy Cocker Spaniel, and Amelie was so kind, patient, and attentive with him. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, well exercised, and settled throughout the day. Before the booking, she very kindly met up with us so that everyone could get to know each other, which we really appreciated. She also lives near a large park, which was perfect for plenty of walks and outdoor time. At the end of the day, our dog barely wanted to leave, which says it all! We were so impressed with the care and attention he received that we’ve already booked Amelie again for another trip. We feel very lucky to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter for my cat. I was away for a week, and Yi was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She took wonderful care of my indoor cat, kept in regular contact with daily updates and photos, and was always friendly, positive, and reliable. Knowing that my cat was in such loving and capable hands gave me complete peace of mind and allowed me to fully enjoy my holiday without any worries. Thank you so much, Yi. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy cat sitter!”
About: In my day job, I work as a corporate paralegal in the City. I find spending time with cats a great way to destress, and I always look forward to that hit of Oxytocin when I come home to Niko - my wonderfully mischievous Russian Blue. Ever since I was little, I've had a huge love for cats and have always been amazed by just how many different personalities they can have. I truly believe every cat is unique, with their own little quirks, likes, and dislikes. I always take the time to get to know each cat as an individual and adapt my approach to suit their personality and needs, whether they're playful, shy, independent, or just want someone to sit quietly with them. When spending time away from home, I know just how important it is to find someone warm and reliable to take care of Niko. I can guarantee you that if you choose to leave your cat with me, they will be given all the cuddles and playtime they need, and I will look after them as if they were my own.
About: Hello everyone, my name is Pam. I am someone who has been surrounded by animals all my life, mainly cats — hihi! 🐱 I have Joey (5years old), a lovely cat who lives with me in the Kensington area. Cats have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is simply part of my daily routine. The world is run by them, and we are just their humble servants, haha! I know how hard it can be to find someone you truly trust to look after your furry family member (or members!). That is exactly why I joined cat-sitting — to help others travel and enjoy their time, knowing that someone at home is taking care of their cat with the same love and attention I give my own.
“Douglas took care of our cat while we were away for 2 weeks and has done an amazing job. He has been super patient with her as she was shy at the beginning and came everyday to play with her”
“Jacqueline was very good and patient with our cat, Luna! After being away for 2 weeks, we came home to a happy, clean, and well-fed cat :-) Jacqueline is reliable and professional- and we will definitely consider her again to keep an eye on Luna!”
“Im very pleased with Juan's service, 100% recommend. He was coming to check on Vanilla during the holidays. Communication was great while i was away and when i returned my place looked tidy with a happy cat awaiting :)”
“We have used Hana to look after our two cats several times and every time she delivers exceptional service and gives us ultimate peace of mind while we are away. Our most recent booking one of our cats had a stomach bug that we needed her to pay special attention to while we were away. She did just that and we came back home to a happy healthy cat. Can’t recommend Hana enough!”
“We had a great experience with Cassandre. She stayed with our cat Mia for a week and was so attentive, making sure our home was clean and tidy when we returned. We loved the regular photos and video updates she sent. Thank you, Cassandre, we’ll definitely be booking you again!”
“Absolutely super sitter. Brilliant communication, was really attentive to the cats (who are quite needy and just love company!), and gave great updates. Highly recommend and would gladly book in future. Thanks for taking such great care of them - I came back to two totally relaxed and happy cats!”
“Exceptional care for our beloved kitties! Jasmin is so thorough and thoughtful. She was well-prepared with questions and a check list during our initial meeting, and it was wonderful getting all of the photos and notes she shared from each visit. We could tell the cats were well taken care of when we arrived home from our travels, and Jasmin went above and beyond with caring for any mess our cats created. So glad to have found such an excellent sitter, couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Alice is the best!! She took such good care of my 10 month old puppy Holly! She is such a good communicator and I trust her. I highly recommend booking with Alice, your pet will be in good hands!”
About: I’ve always had animals around me for as long as I can remember. Dogs especially – they’ve been a part of my life since I was a little girl. When I was studying architecture at university, I adopted my own pup (literally scooped him up off the street as a puppy – love at first sight!). After moving to London (sadly, without him), I started helping out by looking after other people’s dogs. It didn’t take long to realize how much joy and energy they bring into my life. Being around dogs just makes everything better – it’s like a little piece of home wherever I go. I am currently working full time but from home so taking care of dogs will not affect my schedule and the dog’s experience as well. I live in a spacious apartment right across from Hackney Wick Station. Victoria Park is just a 10-minute walk away, and the canal is even closer—only about 4 minutes on foot. With such lovely spots nearby, our walks are sure to be enjoyable and refreshing.
“Ono was SO happy staying with Sarah. She looked after him amazingly well and showered him with so much love and care. Thank you Sarah! We will definitely see you again in the future :)”

About: For my whole life I have grown up looking after dogs - taking them on runs, walks, hikes, or just spending time with them for my family, as well as, over the past 7 years, for other families. I am friendly, wonderful with dogs, and since I have moved away from home, I am missing spending time with dogs and caring for them. During the week, I work fully remote and flexible hours, and I love walking, or taking a break to spend time with your pet! I can host / board, stay, or pop in, depending what your preference is! I am in a very pet-friendly home - while none of us have dogs or cats, we welcome any chance to spend time with yours! We have a secure flat, with good natural light and a small garden outside where I can take care of cats and dogs. I am caring, attentive and get on very well with animals.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and horses since I was 10 years old. I was the primary caregiver for my own doodle from the time she was just three months old, including potty training her and teaching her basic commands and tricks. I’m also comfortable caring for more than one dog at a time, as friends and family have often trusted me to look after their pets. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and can’t wait to meet yours! 🐶🐾💕 I live just a short walk from Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, which are perfect for long, enjoyable walks and plenty of sniffing adventures. There are also several lovely green spaces nearby, so your dog will have lots of opportunities to explore, play, and enjoy different walking routes during their stay. I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home! 😇🌸🥰🌸 I recently left my full-time role and I am currently available full-time while I search for my next opportunity. During this time, I have a flexible schedule and am happy to adapt to yours. I look forward to helping in any way I can!🐶🐾 In my home, your dog will be treated like part of the family. They’re welcome to relax on the sofa or bed and will receive plenty of love, attention, and cuddles. When we’re out and about, I always keep dogs on a lead to ensure their safety, unless we’re in a secure, fenced area where they can run freely and enjoy playing with other dogs.
About: Hi! I absolutely love dogs and had a dog throughout my childhood. I will look after your dog as if it were my own, with lots and lots of love and care! I fostered a dog for two years and she has now gone back to her owner and so would love some dog energy in my life! I offer boarding and dog sitting in my home or at your home, and am happy to care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Your dog’s happiness will always come first with me. 🐶🐾 I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you that can relax. I look forward to meeting your darling dog. I’m currently a student and have lots of time at home and flexibility and good availability to care for your dog when you need it. I live in a flat and so only board small and medium dogs at mine but I am experienced with big dogs too and can have them at yours! I live super close to Holland Park and Kensington Palace Gardens.
About: I’ve looked after dogs since I was young - both my own dogs and those of neighbours and friends. Since moving to London and being away from my black lab back home in South Africa, I’m looking for any opportunity to get my much-needed dose of dog cuddles and daily walks! I offer a calm, home-from-home environment where your dog will feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just curling up on the sofa, I’ll make sure they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently doing a masters at UCL and work at home full time during the week with fully flexible schedule. I am at home most weekends - and other than sports commitments in the mornings on Saturday and Sunday - am usually at home for most of them. I live in a ground-floor flat with a fenced garden. I live with 3 flat mates who are all dog-lovers, and are happy to keep an eye on them if I ever need to step out the house briefly. I am 5 min walking distance from Kensington gardens, so your dog will enjoy regular walks in the park! I’ll make sure your dog feels calm, settled, and truly at home here. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or relaxing in the evening, they’ll get plenty of love and attention—especially when curled up on the couch with us during movie nights. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“Since Victoria has started looking after our dog, I’ve found her to be really accommodating and flexible and totally focused on our dog’s wellbeing, even down to arranging for professional groomer to bathe her. I work fairly anti-social hours and it’s always challenging finding new sitters, so I’m really happy to have discovered Victoria. Highly recommended her services.”
About: Hello! I have always loved being around animals, I have had dogs, cats, chickens and unfortunately since I moved to the UK with university and work, I did not have as much time as before to be around them, and dogs in particular have a special place in my heart. Spending time with them, understanding their personalities, and giving them the attention they need is something I genuinely enjoy. Becoming a pet sitter allows me to combine that passion with the opportunity to help owners feel confident and relaxed when they need someone responsible to look after their pets. I know how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is always to offer a calm, safe and affectionate environment where every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I work from home most of the week, which means I am around and able to give plenty of attention to your pet throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule, so weekdays and weekends both work well for me. Whether it's cuddles, company, or regular walks your dog will never feel left alone or overlooked. I will make sure they're well cared for and happy! My flat is calm and suitable for short daytime care, however I do not have a garden and I share the flat with flatmates. Because of that, I am very flexible and can happily come to your home as well, if your dog needs more space of feels better in a familiar environment. I'll always choose the option the keeps your pet relaxed and well looked after.
“Jacobo was a wonderful carer for my dog. He looked after him really well and was very reliable throughout. I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in safe hands. My dog came home happy and settled, which says everything. Jacob clearly did a great job, and I would definitely recommend him to others.”

I had no doubts that my dog was being well looked after and would 100% recommend.”

About: ❤️ Our boy (9yo🦮) is currently on holidays with our family in Wales, so I have plenty of time, love, and energy for your furry family! 📍West London, 10mins walk to Holland Park. 💟 Only accept one furry family at a time! Your little one will receive full affection and care! 🌟 I have been surrounded by four-legged family members my whole life since I was born. Growing up, my family had two wonderful dogs: a rescued Formosan Mountain Dog (3-10) and a Japanese Spitz, who lived incredible 18-year lives and passed away when I was 7, giving me early experience with senior pet care. Since then, I’ve spent years helping friends, family, and neighbours care for cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. Currently, I live with my partner's gorgeous 9yo Golden Retriever, and am officially his favourite "food & play lady"!

About: I’ve taken care of many pets including dogs, cats, lizards, and fish. I have always been the trusted person within my family and between my friends to look after their pets, as i’m very good with instructions and can be great fun. My energy will always depend on the incredible pet that I look after so that they do not feel overwhelmed or bored at all! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I currently do not have a job or other major commitments. This means I can dedicate my full attention and time to the pets in my care, ensuring they receive plenty of companionship, playtime, exercise, and affection throughout the day. I understand how important consistency and attention are for pets, so I am able to follow their routines closely, whether that involves feeding schedules, walks, medication, or simply spending quality time with them. Because I have a very flexible schedule, I can adapt to your pet’s needs and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My priority is always the happiness and wellbeing of the animals I look after, and I take pride in providing reliable, attentive care that gives owners complete peace of mind. If a pet is staying in my home, they may also meet my 5-year-old sister. She is very gentle, calm, and loving around animals, and has grown up understanding the importance of treating pets with kindness and respect. She knows that some pets enjoy attention while others need their own space, and she is very good at recognising those boundaries. She loves spending time with friendly pets, whether that means quietly sitting with them, playing gently, or simply keeping them company. However, she always follows instructions and understands that the pet’s comfort comes first. This means visiting pets can enjoy a calm, family-friendly environment with plenty of love and attention if they choose to interact. However, Whether I am caring for pets in my own home or in a pet owner’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medication, grooming, and any other requirements. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship, while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. For cats, this may mean providing a calm environment and gentle interaction, while for dogs it could involve walks, games, and lots of affection. I keep living spaces clean and tidy, ensure fresh water is always available, and monitor pets closely for any changes in behaviour or wellbeing. Since I currently have a flexible schedule, I can dedicate plenty of time to the pets in my care, helping them feel relaxed and secure while their owners are away. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own and give owners complete confidence that their beloved companion is in caring and responsible hands.
About: I have been a pet owner since the age of 9, caring for my beloved dog, Zuzu, in Cyprus. Additionally, I've frequently looked after my best friend's dog when her family is away. My name is Eftychia it means happiness in Greek and I am 24 years old currently working within the law field. I am able to work from home which allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine! I find joy in spending time outdoors, particularly in parks, where I often engage in walking or running activities. Combining my passion for outdoor activities with pet care ensures that your furry companion will not only receive necessary exercise but also enjoy exploring nature in a safe and stimulating environment. When caring for pets, my top priority is ensuring they have access to fresh water and nutritious food. Beyond the basics, I enjoy engaging with pets through cuddling, playtime, and providing them with the love and attention they deserve. In addition , I will ensure we take long walks in a safe environment , most of the time in parks such as Hyde park , Holland Park and Kensington Gardens. I will also be updating the dog owners with photos and videos so they know we are having a good time !!!
“Amazing walker and sitter! Regular walker of my senior dog and trust her with him and my house. Very communicative and goes above and beyond the necessary service definitely recommend”
“Rachel took our 4-year old girl Celia for a walk while we were away. She immediately bonded with her and Celia came back happier than ever. I couldn’t recommend her services enough and we’ll definitely be coming for more walks in the future!”
About: Offering a safe pair of hands, in exchange for four paws! From Collies to Chihuahuas, Ridgebacks to Weimaraners, dogs have been a constant part of my life since I was a child. I'm experienced in caring for, playing with, and training dogs of all sizes. Since moving to London, I'm living without a dog for the first time in my life (and the annual visit to Crufts just doesn't quite hit the spot)! I'd love to look after your furry-friend! I can look after your dog anytime. As I work from home, I'll be constantly around for your pet, ensuring they get the care, attention (and toilet breaks) they need. I have a fully enclosed private patio area, allowing your pet secure outdoor access at all times. Living in a 2-floor maisonette, I can block access to the staircase (if this is required for your dog) I am also pet first-aid trained.
“Juan was my first booking on Rover and he was absolutely incredible. My dog loves him!! And he was super flexible to suit my needs. Couldn’t recommend him more… I even trust him more than myself with my dog haha. Thank you so much Juan.”
“Our dog loves Douglas! And she's actually quite picky about humans ☺️ Douglas is great - good comms, prompt, reliable, trustworthy, flexible. His move to Pimlico is Brixton's loss and Pimlico's gain!”
“Jaewon and Sangyoon are very friendly and reliable. Ottie has been walked by them twice and we are looking forward to them caring for her when we are away on holiday.”
About: I've been surrounded by animals since I was little, growing up in my hometown in Italy. Over the years, I've cared for cats, dogs of all sizes—from Shih Tzu to Great Danes and Mastiffs—and even horses. Animals have always been a big part of my life. Now that I live in London, I really miss having my family dogs and the joy of coming home to an excited wagging tail or a cuddly cat. Pet sitting gives me the chance to spend time with animals while providing them with the same love, attention, and care I would give my own. In London, I looked after a lovely Dachshund for a year while interning at an office. I cared for him from puppyhood, helping with his daily routine, reinforcing his training, and making sure he was happy, safe, and well looked after throughout the day. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I'll always treat them with kindness, patience, and plenty of affection. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to your pets. I can provide lots of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day, making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also available on weekends and happy to spend quality time with your pets, whether that means play sessions, walks, exploring outside, or simply keeping them company at home. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and respect their personality, needs, and preferences. I understand that trust and safety are the most important things when someone is caring for your pets. When visiting a pet owner’s home, I will take the time to learn about their routines, personalities, and any special needs, and I will respect these to help them feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I will carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, litter box care, medication if needed, and any specific habits or preferences your cats and dogs may have.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, from small breeds to larger, more energetic ones. I’ve looked after puppies, adult dogs and seniors, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, basic training, bathing and giving lots of love and attention. I always adapt my care to each dog’s personality and needs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the dogs I care for. I can easily fit walks, playtime and feeding into my daily routine, and I’m available on both weekdays and weekends depending on your needs. I always prioritise a safe, calm and clean environment. I carefully follow owners’ instructions regarding feeding, walks and routines. I make sure dogs are supervised, comfortable and stress-free at all times, whether in my home or during walks. I’m attentive to their behaviour and needs and will always keep owners updated.
About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and I’ve been pet sitting for cats and dogs for over 10 years. I have experience both raising puppies and providing senior care, and with caring for multiple pets at once. Aside from pet sitting, my family also fostered dogs for years, ranging from toy poodles to pit bulls. We took emergency placements for puppies and medical recovery. I currently freelance part time so my schedule is very flexible and I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet. I am available both weekends and weekdays for walks, check ins, and full time in home care. I offer in home pet sitting so your pet will get to remain in the environment they find most familiar and comfortable. I am happy to accommodate the structure and routine you follow for your pet.
About: Hi! We’re a couple (I’m Zi, and he’s Lee) who grew up in Malaysia caring for dogs from a young age — it’s always been a big part of our lives. Now that we’re in London without a furry friend of our own, we’d love to pour all that love into looking after yours! Over the years, we’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, so we’re comfortable with whatever your pup needs. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company, we’ll treat them like our own. We can’t wait to meet your dog! We both work from home most of the week and only head into the office once a week each, and we choose our days, so there will always be someone at home with your dog. We’re just a 10-minute walk from Holland Park, so during the week we love taking dogs out for a nice lunchtime stroll and/or after work. At weekends, we enjoy getting out and about and are more than happy to bring your dog along to explore new parks and places. We understand that not every dog loves public transport, so we’re equally happy to stay local, hang nearby, or have a relaxed weekend at home, whatever suits your pup best. We keep them close to us at all times, whether we’re working or chilling, they’ll always have one of us nearby so they never feel alone or unsettled. Throughout the day they’ll get plenty of love, pets, and cuddles. We’ll always follow your lead when it comes to their routine, habits, and any specific needs, so your dog can feel as settled and happy as possible while they’re with us.
“Alex was punctual, friendly and helpful, communicated promptly. He took great care of Shasta and gave him good walks He obviously loves dogs, which is always a plus. Would definitely recommend.”

About: I understand how challenging it can be to leave your pets at home during a long working day.

Whether you have a high energy dog or an independent cat, I tailor my approach to suit their unique personality and needs. You can rely on me for punctuality and clear communication. I know that leaving your pet requires trust. To give you complete peace of mind, I provide detailed updates and photos after every single daytime walk or visit. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members. I provide structured walks to ensure your dog gets the physical exercise and sensory enrichment they need while you are busy.

Cats benefit greatly from a midday check-in. My visits include refreshing water, serving meals, scooping litter trays, and interactive playtime to keep them entertained and comfortable.

“Very good experience, Tracy is well taken care of by Lucia and her husband. She sent me very frequent update and help to walk her every 3 to 4 hours. Will definitely rebook her :)”
“Francini is the best! She made it so easy for me with a late booking and took the best care of my crazy frenchie. There’s a reason she books out fast, if she’s free you’re in luck!”
“Danny provided an excellent home for Bert while we were away over Christmas. He was super flexible in regards to drop off and pick up times and sent lots of photos to keep us up to date and let us know how Bert was getting on. Fantastic help and took any pet related worries off our plate while we were away! Thanks Danny!”
“Alice took a great care of Ruby, she’s kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and photos. Ruby seemed really happy and comfortable during her daycare and I’ll definitely use Alice’s service in the future :)”
“Xinyu was fantastic. She provided morning and evening pictures/videos/updates on how Olive was doing, so it was so reassuring to see her relaxing and going on nice walks on the river walk. Highly recommend her and her partner as loving sitters, and we’ll absolutely be using them again!”
“James was very responsive and provided us with regular updates which we really appreciate. Reggie looked happy and relaxed from his staycation. Will definitely use James's services again!”
“Our dog, Cali, stayed with Jacobo for about a month while we traveled overseas. It was reassuring to know she was in such great hands while we were far away. He took her out with him and really cared for her as if she was his own dog. He was super responsive and sent regular updates - he took care to learn and maintain her routine. We are very grateful and would highly recommend him!”
“Lili was a fantastic sitter for our dog Max. She was able to meet with us in advance of the sit to ensure that Max was familiar and comfortable with her. She was also flexible with our travel days/times and provided updates and photos of Max during the sit. There are a lot of positive things we could say about Lili, but it is best summarized by the fact that Max didn't want to leave her when it was time for him to come home. We would definitely leave Max with Lili again!”
“First time leaving Keahi alone for the night with Gabriella and Morgan. They were both amazing, friendly, helpful, easy-going and Gabriella was great with communication, updates and photos during the night and the morning. Very gracious with all the instructions and fussiness the little madam required, even managed to coax a morning walk out of Keahi. My mind was completely as ease leaving her there for the first time, even allowing me up to get her settled and meet the other pup they were looking after. Thank you so much.”
“Chiara took Teilo for an overnight and. a long walk the next day which gave him a great amount of exercise and new experiences. This was only the second time Teilo had been with Chiara and Marco but he greeted them joyfully when he arrived, and was obviously very happy to stay. Chiara has an easy and confident affinity with dogs, and made Teilo very comfortable in their home. She is very reassuring and gives regular updates and photos. I recommend her highly as a sitter.”
“Anita was absolutely amazing and took excellent care of my dog. I will highly recommend her. She is the perfect dog sitter so attentive, affectionate, and genuinely caring. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care, and I would not hesitate to book her again in the future.”
“Martina looked after our fox terrier for 8 days - during the heatwave! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. Both she and her partner went above and beyond. Daily updates, photos and videos and just so much care and love. Truly outstanding, we feel very lucky. Our foxie came back very happy and well looked after.”
“Norma, my pug, loved her stay with Vanessa and I was able to fully relax knowing she was in safe hands. Vanessa was thorough in getting to know her behaviours and routine in a meet and greet prior to her staying and kept me fully updated whilst I was away and even gave behaviour tips and advised on some toys she loved playing with. Highly recommend Vanessa and will definitely be booking again.”
“Bruce had a fantastic time with Jason - we were sent regular updates (both messages and photos) during his stay. The weather was particularly hot and Jason took very good care of him. While Bruce is very happy go lucky with new people he seemed especially happy with Jason and we would definitely ask for Bruce to stay again and recomend him to our friends!”

“Wiktoria was an amazing host for our dog and cat!! She took great care of our animals, and was especially attentive to the needs of our nervous dog. She and her partner also made sure our cat was kept happy by giving him plenty of attention and by letting him enjoy his favorite pastime of walking outdoors on a leash! Our pets came back very happy and relaxed 😊. We hope to book with her again soon!”
“Lauren and Jack were fanstastic with Chaos and gave brilliant updates every day of his adventures. He is quite high maintenance with a lot of energy but they are naturals with dogs and are very patient and loving. I will definitely return when I can and would recommend highly :)”
