“Honestly couldn’t recommend Gabriella enough! Last minute put in a request quick response, enzo had an amazing time as when he got home next day he slept like a baby ! Haha Gave updates of enzo through the day etc Will definitely be using her again”
“We were incredibly impressed with the communication we received when checking in on how our dog was getting on. The photos we received from Ronnie truly put our minds at ease — it was clear our dog was happy and well cared for. Ronnie is a wonderful dog sitter with a beautiful family, and we felt completely reassured throughout. We wholeheartedly recommend Ronnie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter — we’ll definitely be using her again in the future.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Dani and Anke Ruth! They took care of my dog for 9 days, and I was impressed from start to finish. They kept me updated throughout his stay, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. They were diligent about administering his eye drops as needed, but what truly amazed me was how they handled my dog’s aggression issues. My dog has always been reactive and aggressive around other dogs, and I’ve never been able to socialize him with others successfully. Somehow, Dani and Anke Ruth worked their magic and managed to get him comfortable around other dogs with no problems at all! I was absolutely shocked and delighted when I saw the difference. If I ever need dog care again, I will definitely return to them without hesitation. I strongly recommend Dani and Anke Ruth to anyone looking for professional, caring, and skilled dog sitters”
“Jenni looked after my Woody for a week whilst we were away! She’s absolutely lovely, very caring and attentive and kept me updated on Woody’s antics whilst he was staying with her which was hugely appreciated especially as was my first time away leaving Woody. Would fully recommend and will definitely be using Jenni again as and when needed 🩷 x”
“Maria and her husband were brilliant with my nervous 10 year old dog. They were patient, kind and took on board her feeding schedule with no problems. Maria was always polite, friendly and reliable. She gave us updates during the stay including photos. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Siu Yung and her family were absolutely wonderful with Orbit. We had a pre visit beforehand and I knew instantly that she would be well cared for. We were kept so well updated throughout her stay with messages, photos, and little details about walks, meals, and how she was settling in. It genuinely felt like Orbit was part of their family rather than just being looked after. She had lovely walks, lots of attention, and a calm, caring home environment. We came back to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with Siu Yung again and would highly recommend them for anyone looking for home Boarding!”
“I booked a last minute boarding request with Indy for three days for my large dog. 5 stars doesn’t even cut it! My dog is a rescue and can be nervous at times, but she loved every second. Even though the request was last minute, Indy still accommodated a meet before booking anything, which went well. Layla was so very well looked after and cared for by the family, I had constant updates via text with pictures and videos, she was having the best time. I couldn’t recommend Indy enough, I’ll absolutely be rebooking when the time comes that Layla needs boarding/ dog sitting again”
“It was our first time leaving Roary, and Diana made the whole experience stress free. She sent regular updates, which reassured us so much while we were away. From the photos and messages, we could tell Roary was having the best time. We recommend Diana to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
“Mochi absolutely loves Henrietta, and he’s very picky over who he warms to. Henrietta kept me updated with photos and messages while I was away for a few days which was so lovely. It was so nice to see Mochi so happy and comfortable when I picked him up.”
“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!”
“Very pleased with Anida, she took excellent care of Dolly and kept me up to date all day! Dolly looked like she was having an absolute ball and was smiley and happy in all the photos! Would certainly use her services again! Thank you so much for taking such good care of her! ❤️”
“Andrea looked after our dog Fir overnight while we attended our daughter's wedding. This was the first time we'd left him overnight, but he bonded with Andrea straight away and she kept us posted with pictures and updates so we weren't worried. Andrea is a top dog sitter and we would definitely use her again.”
“Kevin, Denise, and their girls were absolutely fantastic! Our 1-year-old British Bulldog, Molly, had a wonderful two-week stay with their family. We received daily photos and videos of her playing, eating, and enjoying plenty of walks. It was clear she was having the best time! In fact, when we went to pick her up, she looked like she didn’t want to leave! We’re so grateful to Kevin and his family for the love and care they gave to Molly, and for giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Knowing she was safe, happy, and truly part of their family meant the world to us. We’ll definitely be booking with them again and can’t recommend them highly enough!”
“Marcela looked after our Bobby, it appears he had a great time he really took to Marcela. I don't think you could get anyone better or more trustworthy than Marcela to carry out your dog's every needs. I will definitely be leaving Bobby with Marcela again.”
“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! ❤️”
“Maria had a lovely time with Crumpet and came back super happy! Maria sent us lots of updates and photos which was great and was really quick to respond to us. We will book again!”
“I was so nervous about leaving our girl with a stranger for the first time. From the minute I met Laura I knew she wouldn't be a stranger for long. Coco took immediately to her and was happy and healthy two days later when I got her back - just as happy (probably happier for the fun) as when I left. Totally recommend Laura!!”
“Emily looked after Woody really well, we got regular updates through out the day. We were running late for the pickup but Emily was very patient and kind. Will be more than happy re-book.”

“Susan was lovely. She is everything you'd want in a pet sitter. She even managed to get my least people friendly cat to interact with her. Would recommend her services 100%”
“Toby was once again looked after amazingly by Ale. Always in contact when needed and sent daily photos and videos while we were away. Ale is the only cat sitter I would use. She is clearly a cat lover, which makes you feel very reassured. ”
“Teodora was fantastic and I fully recommend her. She was professional at all times. She is a proper animal person and my cat took to her immediately. Teodora is dependable and I really appreciated her detailed updates and photos upon every visit and her communications and quick responses meant I was completely comfortable and assured with her looking after my cat and I will definitely use Teodora again in the future. Top rated and highly recommend.”
“Jenni was AMAZING with our cats and our home and we could not be more pleased. Trusting someone new with your cats is always nerve wrecking but Jenni gave us regular updates, kept the house tidy, and was a real pleasure getting to know. And she did it all during a heatwave! She went above and beyond and we would not hesitate to recommend her to others. The cats will surely be happy whenever they get the chance to see her again.”
“Was first time leaving Pascal, April has kept us updated with photos as well. Pascal has been well looked after would definitely use April again many thanks for looking after our kitty x x”
“Steve was very reliable, punctual and did a great job. There was a situation where we were watching our cat on camera without any food left and looking for food. I messaged Steve and to my surprise he was over not long after that which was very early in the morning. This meant the world to us and shows how kind hearted he is❤️”
About: I also have experience caring for cats. Back home, I had cats of my own, so I'm familiar with their daily routines, feeding, grooming, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I'll always be patient, gentle, and attentive to their needs.
About: Hello, my name is Liisi. I work in Tourism Industry as a department manager, currently working from home part time. I love all animals & want them to be happy and content. I am an experienced cat owner. I have 2 Bengal cats - 8 & 5 years old - they are my precious babies & I always worry about leaving them when I go travelling - its always hard to leave them. However this site has helped me to find a trustworthy person to look after them, that makes me feel at ease when going on my holiday, therefore I thought I could help others with their cat sitting dilemmas when away from home also. As I currently work from home part time, I am flexible with visiting times. I have a 1 y.o. toddler who goes to nursery 3 x a week. I would need to take him along with me on visits on Tuesdays & Wednesdays. I have clear DBS certificate
About: I don’t have direct experience with cats yet, but I’m calm, patient, and a quick learner — and I know cats appreciate exactly that. I’m happy to follow your routine to the letter: feeding schedules, litter, any quirks or preferences. For a first booking I’d always welcome a meet-and-greet so your cat can suss me out on their own terms.
About: have owned cats my whole life and have extensive experience caring for a wide range of personalities and needs. This includes cats who will eat anything and everything, as well as those who are extremely picky with their food and require a bit more patience and understanding. I have also cared for cats who struggle to trust new people, and I know how important it is to give them space, time, and a calm environment to help them feel safe. In addition, I have experience looking after a cat with health issues such as overgrooming, so I am comfortable following specific care instructions and monitoring behaviour closely. I genuinely enjoy working with cats and always aim to provide gentle, attentive care so owners can feel reassured their cat is in safe hands.
“We recently had Maria take care of our two cats, Kuma and Tigger, for two weeks, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy cat sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future! ”
“Ewelina is an amazing cat sitter! Super friendly, communicative and very accommodating; Came as a recommendation from a friend, and stepped in last minute, when I had to travel unexpectedly. Most importantly, my cat loved her and I came back home to a very relaxed kitty. Will definitely be recommending and booking again! Thank you Ewelina:)”
About: For years I have helped many friends look after their dogs, ranging from small senior Cocker Spaniels to energetic Beagles. I have helped friends by staying over with their dogs or walking them daily, some friends have had dogs with very special needs due to their age which I have no problems dealing with and making sure they are as safe as they can be. I will ensure the dogs get the food they require to make sure their diet is properly followed. I'm currently working part-time on the weekends helping to run a small community farm meaning that I have plenty of time to help look after your lovely dogs. I am available all times of the day and have no issues following a routine that some particular dogs may have so not to disturb them and stress them out. Whilst caring for your animals at your home I will follow any additional needs that you ask of me when it comes to your pet or your home.I will happily give out any medication that is needed/required to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy. I have an animal first aid qualification and many years experience of caring for animals that have been injured, when out with your pets I will make sure they are safe.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Dagenham
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I'm an active, outdoorsy person who genuinely loves being around dogs. I take your dog's exercise seriously: proper walks, real time outside, and plenty of stimulation. My hands-on experience comes from regularly walking and caring for two very different dogs — a Staffordshire Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I’m currently working from home with good flexibility. I can work around the schedule for helping out. Weekends should be free in the day too. My flat is a cosy, well-kept one-bedroom on an upper floor — no balcony or outdoor space, but we’re just a 5-minute walk from a park, so dogs get outside plenty. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the flat, which is worth knowing for smaller or older dogs.
About: I’ve had 2 dogs with my family for more than 10 years and have taken care of them both. I can follow instructions easily and have experience in giving prescribed medications to dogs due to one of ours taking medication for most of his doggy life. I currently work 3 days in the office, 2 days working from home and off on weekends. I can care for your pet on the days I’m off and working from home easily. I’m comfortable with whatever the owner need and want for their pets as long as instructions are communicated. I own a car and can travel to places if needed.
About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of cats and dogs, including tabby cats, British Shorthairs, and Sphynx cats. I have also looked after many different dog breeds and have grown up around animals, having owned Rottweilers and a Poodle, and I currently care for my Shih Tzu and two tabby cats. I am very confident handling pets of different personalities and needs, including dogs with separation anxiety. I genuinely enjoy working with animals and take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. My aim is to give pet owners complete peace of mind, knowing their pets are in safe and loving hands at all times. I am a full-time SEN secondary teacher, however I spend my spare time (after 15:00) caring for cats and dogs, including my own pets. I have a strong passion for animals and really enjoy providing them with attentive, reliable care outside of my working hours. I am also available throughout all school term holidays, so if you are looking for a full-time pet sitter during these periods, please feel free to get in touch. In addition, I am open to last-minute weekend bookings where possible. With owner permission, I also love taking dogs out for enriching walks to places such as local parks or forests to ensure they are happy, stimulated, and enjoying their time while in my care. I have a fenced garden with plenty of space for pets to safely roam and enjoy themselves. I also have a female, friendly Shih Tzu named Paris, who is very sociable with other dogs and is also comfortable around cats, as she has lived alongside my two tabby cats. My cats are generally independent and often spend time outdoors in the neighbourhood or relaxing in their own space indoors, so visiting pets are able to have a calm and low-stress environment. I always ensure any pets in my care are introduced slowly and safely where needed, and I prioritise their comfort and wellbeing at all times.
About: I absolutely love all animals and am a proud mother of 4 gorgeous cats, oldest one is Leo 16 years old (domestic) Matisse (british shorthair ) Monkey (british shorthair) and Arya (british shorthair ) They keep me laughing with their own unique personality and could not imagine them not being in my life, I love playing with them seeing them chasing around. I have looked after a friends shih tzu on many occasions, feeding and walking. Highlighting most importantly lots of love and cuddles. Which would be the case for all my 4 legged friends I will look after in the near future. Feel safe in knowing I will take the upmost care and give my undivided attention to all their needs however big or small. I am currently working part time so do have most of my day free, I am available from 9am until 8pm. And not south of London, apologies for this as I do not drive. I care for my beautiful fluff balls very much as I treat them with respect and give them endless love and cuddles, even when they are naughty.
“Thiv has taken very good care of Hazel. She took Hazel on walks, played ball with her and brought her to meet other doggo friends. Hazel was so happy to see her again, she sprinted into her flat without turning back to look at us. She loves Thiv so much, she follows Thiv around all day. I’d highly recommend her.”
“I left Rusty with Gabi for the second time and he had a lovely day. He was looked after really well on an extremely hot day and came home tired and happy. It's such a relief to have someone you can trust to take care of your fur baby!”
About: I grew up in a family and we always had dogs as pets and have always loved every kind dog. I also have always looked after my friends dogs when needed and treated them like it was my own dog. In recent years I have assisted a family member who’s looks after dogs on a day care and boarding basis, in doing so I have gained experience of looking after all types of dogs I attend night college 1/2 a week at present and therefore I’m available most days and weekends to look after a dog of any kind I have my very own large apartment and am able to accommodate a dog easily and I’m surrounded by open spaces to walk the dog insuring any exercise and toilet needs are met.
“Leonor is fantastic! Benji absolutely adores her and always enjoys spending time with her. She keep us consistently updated through photos and texts. We’ve booked with Leonor multiple times and will happily continue booking with her.”

About: Dogs have been the heart of my home for nearly two decades. After 14 wonderful years with my beloved Staffy, Tyson, I welcomed Titan into my life three years ago. Titan is a friendly, neutered Staffy-mix who truly lives up to the "nanny dog" reputation. I know how hard it is to be away from your fur-baby. I provide regular updates and photos throughout the day so you can see exactly how much fun they are having. We can't wait to welcome your pup into our home!

Secure Environment: I have a large family home and a garden that is significantly larger than average—fully fenced and perfect for zoomies!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs regularly for the past 3 years, mostly looking after two senior dogs for one friend and a young puppy for another. This has given me experience with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, from gentle senior care to playful puppy stages. From age 15 I cared for dogs within my family, supporting with walks, feeding, and keeping them settled while owners were away. In addition, I‘ve cared for my family kitten, and as an indoor cat, he required consistent feeding, litter care, playtime, and a calm presence, something I’m very comfortable providing. Working from home, enables me to give consistent attention throughout the day and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Every dog or cat in my care is treated with patience, attentiveness, and love. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care, supervision, companionship and regular walks or drop-ins throughout the day. I’m flexible during weekdays and available most weekends, making it easy to fit pet care naturally into my routine. When caring for dogs or cats in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions provided. I ensure doors and gates are always secured, keep environments tidy and safe. If crate training is part of their routine, I’m comfortable supporting that in a gentle and positive way. My focus is always on providing a safe, consistent, and loving environment while you’re away.
“Laura was lovely, communicative & even sent photos of Larry with her & her dog, Sunny whilst they were together. The location is great, next to Primrose Hill which is great for walks. Recommended”
About: I’ve loved dogs all my life, spending plenty of time around the pups of friends and family. Two years ago, I met my true dogmate, Matlock, a French Bulldog who completely changed my world. Since then, we’ve been side by side almost every moment of the day (working from home means she’s basically my boss!). Together with her Labrador buddy, they’ve trained me far better than I could ever train them. Thanks to them, I’ve learned to understand a dog’s needs, moods, and quirks. I’ll bring that same unconditional love and care to your furry friend. Since I work from home, I’m able to keep a close eye on your dog throughout the day and my flat has aircon that can keep your baby comfortable all day. 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.
“I can wholeheartedly say I trust Nicola and her family to watch Ralph again and again and again. They're so lovely and friendly. They kept me informed the whole time and sent pictures as well during the day. I would definitely book again ❤️ Thank you so much!”
About: I've grown up around dogs and they've always been a huge part of my life. We had a family dog throughout my childhood, and today I regularly care for my mum's three dogs whenever she's away, often for extended periods. This includes feeding, walking, playing, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they stick to their usual routines. I'm also the go-to dog walker for my aunties' dogs, Doris and Bolt, who I absolutely adore. Whether it's long walks, trips to the park, games of fetch or simply keeping them company, I genuinely love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities. I'd love a dog of my own, but with future travel plans, I've decided to wait until I can give one the lifelong commitment it deserves. In the meantime, Rover is the perfect way for me to spend time doing something I genuinely enjoy while giving other owners peace of mind that their dogs are in caring, responsible hands. I understand that every dog is different, so I'm happy to adapt to their routine, energy levels and any instructions you leave. Whether your dog loves adventures, long walks, cuddles on the sofa or simply needs someone patient and reliable, I'll make sure they're well cared for and treated like one of the family. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I'll always care for your dog as if they were my own. I'll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing they're having a great time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide flexible, attentive care throughout the day. I can easily step away for regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and comfort breaks as needed. I usually take a lunchtime walk and spend most of my day at home, meaning pets are rarely left alone. I’m also available for overnight stays, drop-ins, and boarding, with evenings and weekends fully dedicated to care as well. Pets in my care are looked after in a calm, secure, and pet-friendly home environment. I live in a terrace house with a fully fenced garden, allowing safe outdoor access. Inside, I have non-carpeted floors for easy cleaning and sofa covers so pets are welcome to relax comfortably. I am comfortable with puppies and follow owner instructions closely, including routines and feeding. Pets are not left alone during bookings unless absolutely necessary, and never for more than around two hours unless agreed with the owner. I can support some medication needs depending on the type and instructions provided, always prioritising safety and trust.

About: I’m a 31-year-old private piano teacher with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care and walks during the mornings and early afternoons. I usually start work around 2pm, so I’m available for daytime walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets (except Wednesdays). Sundays are currently completely free until August, making me available for longer visits and pet sitting throughout the day. I'm also available for house-sitting. I’ve loved dogs my whole life and had my own mixed-breed Chihuahua, Lady, for 17 years, so I understand how important patience, affection, and routine are. I’ve also spent time caring for my grandparents’ German Shepherd, Nero, during summer holidays growing up, which gave me experience with larger breeds as well as small dogs. Since I’m unable to have pets in my rented flat, spending time with dogs again would genuinely make me very happy. I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and receives lots of attention, playtime, and affection while they’re with me. I work as a private piano teacher for around 5 hours a day, usually in the afternoons, which leaves me with plenty of time for pet care, walks, companionship, and house sitting. My schedule is flexible, and outside of teaching hours I’m able to spend most of the day with your pet. I’m also happy to stay overnight in your home for house sitting, helping your pet feel comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. Sundays are currently fully available until August, and I’m unavailable on Wednesdays. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine are very important to me. Since I’m offering house sitting and care in the owner’s home rather than boarding, I aim to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible for your pet. I’ll carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any specific preferences you have. I’m calm, patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means active walks and playtime or simply keeping them company and making them feel safe while you’re away.

About: I have a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management where I achieved the highest possible grade of triple Distinction*. This diploma gave me two years of experience caring for and training all types of animals. I also have work experience in various dog groomers, doggy daycare, a vet practice, and city farms. I also volunteer at university as a dog walker for elderly/disabled people. I've had both dogs and cats for my whole life and care greatly about their welfare! I am also studying bioveterinary science at university where I have done projects focusing on animal welfare. I am currently a student who is on summer break until October with no prior commitments so have plenty of free time to care for, play with, and walk your pets! I will host pets safely in their home by following their routine, pet-proofing the space, monitoring their health, and communicating daily with the owner.
About: 🐶 Dogs have always been part of my life! With years of caring for my own, plus family and neighborhood pups, I bring patience, experience, and lots of love to every dog I meet. 🏡 Because I’m home full-time, your pup gets plenty of attention and care all day long! From playtime to walks and cuddles, I make sure each dog feels right at home. 🐾 A safe and happy home away from home! My space is fully dog-proofed, with secure fencing, cozy resting spots, and lots of love. You can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands
About: Growing up I have cared for my own pets, neighbours pets, dont shy away from the muck work, grooming and other pet requirements. Will care to your extended family member as if they were my own. I am quite confident with different animals having cared. Love and care with deep genuine attention to the extended family member and will give you some trusted peace of mind that you have left your cared one in safe kind hands. I work full time and have alternative Mondays, Wednesdays and weekends off. Therefore I am flexible in how I can help you out. Cat/dog overnight homeowner stays, happy to house your cat for an overnight stay (wouldn't be fair to a dog to come and stay in my flat as I wouldn't be able to care for it throughout the day unless it's a one night or over night weekend stay when I am off. As I'd be able to take out on walks- have two beautiful greenspaces to chose from for long or short walks. I live in a flat with a balcony, I would be happy to house cats, smaller pets in their cage/tank throughout the week, but would have smaller availability for small dogs/medium dogs, due to full time work and I wouldn't be comfortable leaving them in a confined space without the care and attention they would require.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I can remember, ever since I was a kid, I encountered lots of different pets such as frogs, newts, hamsters, tortoise ect. However we had two staffs, I cared for them with my dad, from birth till I was 12. Having two staffs alongside many other animals has helped me gain knowledge on how to care and raise animals. Aside from my own pets, being an animal lover I naturally took on the role of walking my family’s dogs. I also worked in a farm for a few years doing voluntary work, this further expanded my experience beyond dogs and pets you’d have at home. I cleaned them out, fed them, and made sure everything is how it’s supposed to be to ensure they’re comfortable. At the moment I am unemployed and out of education, because of this I will have plenty of time to cater to walking your dogs! I would make sure the dogs needs are met, I would take time to get to know each dogs needs specifically. I would ensure the dog is always in my sight and never left unattended.
About: Hey, I’m Maria 👋🏼 I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 5 years old and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I have volunteered with Guide Dogs and have also taken responsibility for caring for my own dogs, as well as family and friends’ pets—always giving them the love and attention they deserve as part of the family 🐶 Friends, family, and neighbours have relied on me to care for their pets, whether that means daily walks, playtime, or making sure they feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I treat each one with patience, care, and of course, plenty of cuddles & affection 🐾 My husband & I recently bought a new house so I don’t live with my family dog anymore but we would love our own dog in the future! 🫶🏼 Please note, as I am new to Rover, my prices are introductory prices for now & may be subject to change! I work full time as a teacher, so I’m available for dog walks from 4:15–8:30pm during the week, except Wednesday. I am available for dog walks all day Saturday & Sunday. I’m available for boarding everyday besides Wednesdays, however I am at work from Monday-Friday 8am-4:15pm, therefore your dog would be at home with my husband during these times, as he works from home. I live in a house with a large, fully fenced garden & am also a 5 minute walk from a large country park, perfect for dog walks! If it is your preference, I can crate your dog overnight, or they’re welcome to sleep upstairs on the bedroom floor next to me, or downstairs in a cozy dog bed/on the rug. My priority is making sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for just like they would at home.
About: I'm 18 years old and currently a student. I recently started university but during my studies I would like to find some jobs cat sitting. I have a cat called Maya that I love very much and have had for 4 years and a new kitten named Oreo. I adore animals, cats especially and I can assure to provide great care of your pets.
About: I'm an active, outdoorsy person who genuinely loves being around dogs. I take your dog's exercise seriously: proper walks, real time outside, and plenty of stimulation. My hands-on experience comes from regularly walking and caring for two very different dogs — a Staffordshire Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I’m currently working from home with good flexibility. I can work around the schedule for helping out. Weekends should be free in the day too. My flat is a cosy, well-kept one-bedroom on an upper floor — no balcony or outdoor space, but we’re just a 5-minute walk from a park, so dogs get outside plenty. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the flat, which is worth knowing for smaller or older dogs.
About: I have been brought up around all types of animals, mostly cats and dogs, due to my mother having fostered animals when I was a kid. As a result, I was (safely) exposed to all types of personalities. Currently, we have 10 animals in total, 5 cats - 3 of which are rescued, 2 dogs - a giant breed and a small breed, 2 guinea pigs and a Russian Dwarf Hamster. All, incredibly spoilt might I add. Due to my animals - mostly my guinea pigs, I don't feel comfortable doing boarding, but I am more than happy to keep your pets company in your house. I have a pretty free schedule, so I have a lot of time to play around with pups and kitties. From my mother's fostering when I was kid, I'm pretty good at reading body language, so I'm great at not putting animals in uncomfortable situations. I can adapt based on how the animal feels with touch, if they're cuddly I am more than happy to indulge, if they aren't and prefer to keep more to themselves I am also more than happy to accommodate them.
“Patricia was absolutely wonderful — kind, friendly, punctual, and very efficient throughout. Klopp was clearly comfortable and happy in her care, and is now enjoying a nice sleep lol. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book again!”
About: I've initially helped dog owners at Borrow my Doggy then we got a shih tzu ourselves 5 years ago. I can dog sit, walk or board small to medium female dogs Mondays and Friday and also weekends. I have a garden, always go for at least an hour park walk and plenty to play times and cuddles. I have lots of toys too! I work from home Mondays and Friday and free over the weekend. My work pattern is very flexible that can fit walks at different times. I have a fenced garden and a very friendly Shih Tzu to keep them company. We go to the park or woods depending on the weather, play with toys and have lots of cuddles.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs regularly for the past 3 years, mostly looking after two senior dogs for one friend and a young puppy for another. This has given me experience with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, from gentle senior care to playful puppy stages. From age 15 I cared for dogs within my family, supporting with walks, feeding, and keeping them settled while owners were away. In addition, I‘ve cared for my family kitten, and as an indoor cat, he required consistent feeding, litter care, playtime, and a calm presence, something I’m very comfortable providing. Working from home, enables me to give consistent attention throughout the day and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Every dog or cat in my care is treated with patience, attentiveness, and love. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care, supervision, companionship and regular walks or drop-ins throughout the day. I’m flexible during weekdays and available most weekends, making it easy to fit pet care naturally into my routine. When caring for dogs or cats in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions provided. I ensure doors and gates are always secured, keep environments tidy and safe. If crate training is part of their routine, I’m comfortable supporting that in a gentle and positive way. My focus is always on providing a safe, consistent, and loving environment while you’re away.
“I can’t thank Jade enough for the amazing care she gave my dog while I was recovering from surgery. For a full week, she stepped in and treated my pup as if he were her own—always punctual, reliable, and full of warmth and energy. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly passionate about animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Jade. She made a stressful time so much easier—and my dog absolutely adores her! Thank you again. Beata”

About: For years I have helped many friends look after their dogs, ranging from small senior Cocker Spaniels to energetic Beagles. I have helped friends by staying over with their dogs or walking them daily, some friends have had dogs with very special needs due to their age which I have no problems dealing with and making sure they are as safe as they can be. I will ensure the dogs get the food they require to make sure their diet is properly followed. I'm currently working part-time on the weekends helping to run a small community farm meaning that I have plenty of time to help look after your lovely dogs. I am available all times of the day and have no issues following a routine that some particular dogs may have so not to disturb them and stress them out. Whilst caring for your animals at your home I will follow any additional needs that you ask of me when it comes to your pet or your home.I will happily give out any medication that is needed/required to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy. I have an animal first aid qualification and many years experience of caring for animals that have been injured, when out with your pets I will make sure they are safe.

“Maria and her husband were brilliant with my nervous 10 year old dog. They were patient, kind and took on board her feeding schedule with no problems. Maria was always polite, friendly and reliable. She gave us updates during the stay including photos. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Siu Yung and her family were absolutely wonderful with Orbit. We had a pre visit beforehand and I knew instantly that she would be well cared for. We were kept so well updated throughout her stay with messages, photos, and little details about walks, meals, and how she was settling in. It genuinely felt like Orbit was part of their family rather than just being looked after. She had lovely walks, lots of attention, and a calm, caring home environment. We came back to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with Siu Yung again and would highly recommend them for anyone looking for home Boarding!”
“I booked a last minute boarding request with Indy for three days for my large dog. 5 stars doesn’t even cut it! My dog is a rescue and can be nervous at times, but she loved every second. Even though the request was last minute, Indy still accommodated a meet before booking anything, which went well. Layla was so very well looked after and cared for by the family, I had constant updates via text with pictures and videos, she was having the best time. I couldn’t recommend Indy enough, I’ll absolutely be rebooking when the time comes that Layla needs boarding/ dog sitting again”

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