“Henrietta was absolutely amazing with Percy. She took such good care of him and the joy and love of dogs shines through from her. I felt so reassured leaving Percy with her - she clearly devotes a lot of time and love to the dogs she looks after. She kept in touch regularly with updates and was so thoughtful and clearly cared a lot about Percy’s welfare. Her communication was amazing from start to finish. Honestly I can’t thank her enough and would happily leave Percy with her again anytime.”
“Seema and her family were lovely and we felt really comfortable leaving Tiggy with them. We got text updates, and Seema even slept downstairs with her. When we picked Tiggy up she was relaxed and happy. We would definitely book again!”
About: Hi there! I’m a postgraduate student in psychology with a deep passion for animal care and behavior. Having cared for my own Golden Retriever, Nacho, for over seven years, I am very experienced in the day-to-day routines of dog care. Beyond caring for my own dog, I regularly pet-sit and walk dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, handling dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I work flexibly at the moment, which allows me to give your dog my full attention. I typically do 30 to 60-minute walks, taking full advantage of a great park just 10 minutes from my place, and I’ll happily send photo updates if you wish to know how your pup is doing! (Note: Since Nacho lives with me, any dogs coming to my home for care or visits must be comfortable living alongside another dog!) I look forward to meeting you and giving your dog the care and companionship they deserve. My own dog is among the highlights of my daily life, so I always ensure she’s had her fill of fun each day. I’m currently in the process of finishing up my dissertation, so I have a very free and flexible schedule that allows me to easily house and give proper care to our fuzzy friends. I have a fenced garden, and a perfect golden retriever therapy dog to accompany your pet. Chances are, we already have a lot of tools and toys for your dog to enjoy, and my family are also present and happy to spend time with them.
“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!”
About: We are an active, dog-loving family of five with a large garden, perfectly located right opposite a forest for endless walks and adventures. Our household includes three children (ages 16, 13, and 8) who have grown up knowing exactly how to respect, handle, and love dogs. We have a deep understanding of canine care, having owned our beloved Staffy, Zeus, for 15 years, and more recently, our XL Bully, Axel. While I recently had to make the difficult decision to rehome Axel due to my daughter’s severe eczema, her doctor has recommended frequent, short-term exposure to dogs to help her build up a natural resistance. Dog sitting is the absolute perfect balance for us—it allows us to open our home to furry guests, gives the kids their dog-fix, and ensures your pup gets constant attention, play, and love. For now, I am looking to host smaller dogs as I transition into pet sitting. Important Note: Your dog must be entirely comfortable and safe around cats as we have a cat (lives outside 90% of the time) What I offer: Decades of Experience: Confident and experienced with powerful breeds, energetic puppies, and senior dogs alike. Prime Location: A spacious, secure garden and direct access to forest trails right across the road for perfect daily walks. Constant Company: With a bustling family, there is almost always someone around to play, cuddle, or keep your dog company. Tailored Care: I will strictly follow your feeding, exercise, and training routines to make your dog feel right at home. Your dog won't just be looked after; they will be treated like a cherished member of our family during their stay! There's usually always someone at home, although there may be times when we have to leave for an hour or so. It would be a bonus if your dog is comfortable being alone for short periods Our garden is fully secured with grass and tiled areas. We keep a tidy, pet-safe indoor environment, though we do have a policy of keeping pets off the sofas. We provide plenty of comfortable dedicated pet beds so they still have a cozy place to relax.
“Anely and her family took fantastic care of Lola! She sent us photos and an update of her every day of our holiday, it was so nice to see her having fun. Lola had plenty of fun walks with Brownie in the forest and lots of cuddles with the family. We will definitely be sending Lola back for any future trips. Thank you so much!”
“Giedre has been absolutely amazing with Maxine. From the moment they met, I could tell Max was in great hands. She treated Max like a queen and made sure she had an incredible week, with lots of fun walks and adventures. Max even got to join Giedre at a work barbecue, go art shopping, and spend plenty of time exploring the forest, all of which she absolutely loved. One of Max’s favourite things was Giedre’s beautiful garden. She spent hours relaxing between the plants, sniffing around, and playing endless games of fetch. It was wonderful knowing she had so much space to run, explore, and simply enjoy being a dog. Giedre kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind. I came home to a very happy, relaxed dog, and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Maxine with her again. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of her. I highly recommend Giedre to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy and genuinely lovely dog sitter.”
“Coco clearly loves staying with Jen and Sam, and you can tell how much they make it feel like home for her when she’s at their house. Jen send loads of photos and updates, so really reassuring to know she’s in good hands and having fun when we’re away. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend”
“Hands down the best dog sitters/ boarders I have ever booked for my dog Marple- and I have booked with many! Marple is an extremely high energy parson Russell and I was so impressed with how amazing and attentive Brian was in sending me lots of updates and photos and I was not anxious at all. I will definitely book him again. Marple was so well cared for and happy when she was dropped back and Brian had also spotted a potential injury that I had overlooked. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“The dogs came back happy and obviously very well cared for. Both Nicola and her partner were obvious very good to them and provided constant updates. We will definitely be using them again if we need.”
“Superb! Will definitely be booking again; communication throughout Kane’s stay and his needs were accommodated with no hassles. Danielle allowed for Kane take home a toy, he will now not put it down - his new favourite teddy. Couldn’t be more pleased with the service received; would recommend to anyone a bit anxious about being away from their pets, they will be in safe hands here guaranteed :)”
About: Hey! We’re Adam and Priya. The parents of our lovely, adorable cocker spaniel Coco for the last 2 years. We have a lovely long garden, right next to Buckhurst Hill tube station where, as you go to work, your dog can have a great time with our dog Coco and Priya. I (Priya) am currently at home 3 days between Monday and Friday doing a mixture of working from home and looking after my little beautiful (human) son. We have a long, fenced garden with plenty of trees so they will feel like they’re on an adventure all day. They can get to spend it with our lovely cocker spaniel Coco who loved meeting new people and dogs!
“Thanks so so much Jessica! You took such great care of Kenzo and I really appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. He came home relaxed and happy and I can tell he’s been well looked after. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️”
“Our dogs, Miso and Kimchi, boarded with Kelly for 1 night. Kelly was fantastic and we are looking forward to using her in future. It's clear that Kelly has a passion for dogs and she quickly built a bond with our dogs and she ensured they had a home away from home. Kelly provided us with regular updates and ensured they managed the recent heat wave well. We would highly recommend Kelly.”
“Olesya was amazing!! It was our first time leaving Oreo alone and we were very nervous. As soon as we came in Olesya reassured us. Throughout the trip she kept us updated with photos and video Oreo loved her also, will definitely recommend and rebook if needed in future. Thank you again!🩷🩷”

“Michelle took excellent care of Luna while we were away which was clear as she was calm and happy when we arrived back home. She even went the extra mile of taking care of my plants! Will definitely book again thank you so much 😊😊”
About: I had two lovely cats as a child and growing up with them taught me responsibility, how to care for a cat but mostly about their independence! These were my first pets so created a love for cats very early on. I have also looked after cats for two of my neighbours while they were away. I would check in twice a day to feed them, play with them and make sure they had everything they needed.
“Paris looked after our two cats on a last minute weekend trip we had to make - she was so accommodating and looked after them at such short notice! She really put our mind at rest and sent us lots of pictures while looking after them and they really took to her - especially our boy cat who is usually a little wary of new people! She really went above and beyond. Thank you Paris! ♥️🙌”
About: Hey my name is Gess and I’m 25. I raised a kitten in my past relationship and I have a stay cat that I travel to every week and visit to feed her and make sure she’s okay (she’s a street cat with no home but the neighbours don’t wish to take her away from the estate. I have experience cat sitting where I would stay at the house for seven hours, locking up, and then visit the next day. Other times it would be to pop in and out on the same day, and I have also done overnight stays where I look after your pet whilst making sure the house stays nice and tidy. Am happy to follow any weird or odd routine your pet may have (mine has to eat out of a plastic bowl whilst I tell him he’s bother is watching). Whilst I’m looking after your pet and providing them with cuddles and care, I’ll make sure to update you with quality photos and videos, to put your mind at ease and make the distance feel not that big. I work in a school with sen children, so am fully first aid qualified and am used to mess and providing unconditional love. I drive and have no issues coming and going whenever you need, or staying over night. During school holidays I am available during week days and weekends anytime, but during term time I would only be available after 3:30pm on a weekday but anytime on the weekends.
“Georgia took such wonderful care of my cat and kept me updated with lovely photos and messages, which I really appreciated. Seeing my cat looking so relaxed and happy made it so much easier to enjoy my trip, knowing they were being so well looked after.”
About: I’ve been around cats for most of my life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Friends, family, and neighbours have trusted me to look after their cats while they’re away, whether that’s feeding, playing, keeping them company, or sticking to their daily routine. I understand that every cat is different, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for.
“Mary was absolutely wonderful! She took such loving care of my cat and kept me feeling completely at ease while I was away. I could tell my cat was comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I’m so grateful and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter.❤️”
“I recently used Olesya to cat sit for my kitten Miwa while I was on vacation. I was very happy with the quality of care she received. Olesya responded to my request for a last-minute sitter very quickly, and she was very flexible with her schedule. She also sent me updates on Miwa every day, including pictures and videos. I could tell that Miwa enjoyed her stay at Olesya's house. There was plenty of room for her to play, and she looked very well-kept and fed. Olesya also took the time to get to know Mina and her personality, which I appreciated. She even took an interest in water at Olesya’s which presently surprised me! Overall, I would highly recommend Olesya to other cat owners. She is a caring and responsible sitter who provides excellent care for your furry friends. I would definitely use her services again in the future.”

“I couldn't be happier with the care my 4-month-old Frenchie received! Leaving a young puppy can be stressful, but I was kept reassured with regular, lovely updates throughout the day. They were incredibly understanding of a puppy's specific needs and routines. Highly recommend, and will definitely be booking again! Thank you Danielle and Andrew”
“My pup is a mummy's boy and can make a fuss when I leave, but Madalina is a so patient and is able to distracts him that he soon stops fussing. Sonney wagging tail is a true indicator that he is content in Madalina company and enjoys his time with her :-)”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and rabbits of every kind since I was 3. I loved my pets so much. I had a kitty with diabetes so I am experienced in managing diabetes and doing insulin injections if needed. I can also measure your pet's blood glucose level. I am free in the evenings and during weekends. I can also consider looking after your pet during the day as I work from home. I have a fenced garden and two parks nearby where I will be taking your dogs for a walk. We live in a nice area with lovely neighbours. I work mainly from home so I will have plenty of time to look after and play with your fur babies. I love keeping active myself so can guarantee walks twice a day minimum :) I have a fenced garden and toys to keep your fur baby entertained. I can easily crate your your dog if needed. I will treat your pet like my own. I feed pets as instructed by their owners, ensure daily exercise and attention, and handle cleaning and grooming regularly. Weekly, I do deeper cleaning and check-ups to keep them healthy. I provide attentive pet care based on the service offered. My priority is to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for in any setting.
“First of all, I am very grateful that she accepted my request at short notice. She and her daughter are wonderful to Toffee. She ask questions to clarify instructions and updates often for a day care service. Thank you very much!”
About: I have grew up with dogs and animals since I was very young so for me taking care of them just comes naturally… i am also owning some cats in Romania currently, sadly due to living in a flat I had to leave them with parents they are 5 as well. I have had my first dog when I was 7 and I currently still taking care of my friends dogs and cats when needed. Planning to move to a house next year and get a cat for myself i think animals are offering the purest form of love and for me that created addiction❤️ I am a software engineer and work remotely so I am home all day which is nice as I can offer the proper care for your dog/cat I live in a two bedroom flat but I have loads of green areas around me including a huge natural park literally across the street so we can keep active during the day and after work
“Lara was amazing! First time I met her with Milo, she welcomed us with open arms. She loves pets so much, and that's maybe why Milo got so comfortable around her in an instant. Milo had a blast with her! She sent pictures of the little doggo and gives constant updates, as well as a complimetary walk! I can't recommend her enough. We are looking forwars to trusting her again with Milo.”
About: Lifelong pet owners and experienced dog walker/sitter. I have two sausage dogs, Dorris & Poppy, trained them myself, and I’m confident with stubborn breeds, routines, and gentle handling. Available for overnight stays, day care, drop-ins and walks. I’m working from home Monday, Wednesday and Friday and I’m also available most weekends! I’m in a ground-floor flat right by Epping Forest (no garden, but easy access to plenty of green space and regular outdoor breaks). I have two friendly sausage dogs, so visiting dogs need to be comfortable around other dogs. For overnight stays, I have a spare room that can be used for sleeping arrangements and for crates. If your dog isn’t crate trained, please let me know in advance so we can agree a setup that keeps them settled and safe.
“Tony and Archie were so nice with my little Rio. He sent me updates throughout the day and asked questions as it was the first time. I was so happy with him that I booked straight away another day next week. We feel lucky we found them ;)”
About: We’re a friendly and caring couple who have both grown up with dogs and cats, so being around animals has always been a big part of our lives. We genuinely love spending time with pets and understand that every animal has its own personality, routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles or simply keeping them company, we’re happy to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the people caring for your pets, and we’ll treat them as if they were our own. We’re reliable, responsible and happy to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My partner and I work different shifts, which gives us plenty of flexibility when caring for pets. I usually work afternoons and evenings (typically 3pm–11pm), while my partner works 10am–6pm and spends two days a week working from home. As our schedules are rota-based and change weekly, we’re often able to accommodate different requests and routines. We enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and relaxing at home, and everything is a bit more fun when there’s a furry (or bald!) friend joining us. We understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and we do our best to make them feel comfortable and secure. We follow any instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise, or simply giving them space when they need it. Our home is calm, pet-friendly, and full of attention and affection. We love spending quality time with animals, whether that’s playing, exploring outside, or curling up on the sofa for a quiet evening together. We treat every pet as if they were our own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while in our care.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments for years, mostly for friends and family who trust me with their pets while they’re away. Animals seem to connect naturally with me; they sense calmness and genuine care, which helps them settle quickly. I focus on making every pet feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I’m patient, attentive to routines, and adapt easily to each pet’s personality, whether it’s an energetic puppy, a shy rescue, or an older companion needing a gentler touch. My schedule is very flexible. I work remotely, which allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day, from morning walks to evening cuddles. I plan my day around each pet’s needs and routine to keep them relaxed and happy while you’re away. I provide a calm, clean, and secure home environment where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and maintain open communication with regular photo and message updates. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space respectfully and ensure routines are followed exactly as requested. My goal is always the same, safety, trust, and peace of mind for both you and your pet.

About: I have had dogs since I was five - I enjoy being around any kind of breed I understand their body language well. I worked as a boarding kennel assistant two summers ago where I looked after a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I am a student who will be looking for work when I come home for the summer. I am not employed and so can be very flexible in the hours and days required. I will follow any instructions you give me very seriously regarding the care of your pet. I would also love to play with them and give them loads of attention if they like that.
About: I've always helped my family and friends to look after their pets whilst they were busy or away on holiday - checking in on them, feeding them and brushing their fur, playing, and going on walks! They all have high energy dog breeds that require lots of walks to get it all out. This means I can do longer walks with your pets if they prefer to get all their energy out! Currently, I have plenty of flexible time during the both weekdays and weekends to help out! This includes morning, afternoons, and evenings. We will easily be able to make some sort of arrangement :D At home I have a cat, who would very much not appreciate the prescence of other pets, however when helping out friends and family I always ensure to copy the way they look after their pets at home!

About: Hey my name is Gess and I’m 25. I own two dogs and would often pet sit for my cousins two dogs at the same time, so looking after four dogs at once. Taking them all on walks, playing with and feeding them. I have experience dog sitting where I would stay at the house for seven hours, locking up, and then visit the next day. Other times it would be to pop in and out on the same day, and I have also done overnight stays where I look after your pet whilst making sure the house stays nice and tidy. Am happy to follow any weird or odd routine your pet may have (mine has to eat out of a plastic bowl whilst I tell him he’s bother is watching). Whilst I’m looking after your pet and providing them with cuddles and care, I’ll make sure to update you with quality photos and videos, to put your mind at ease and make the distance feel not that big. I have looked after an elderly dog in his last few years. I have experience in just dog walking too. I work in a school with sen children, so am fully first aid qualified and am used to mess and providing unconditional love. I drive and have no issues coming and going whenever you need, or staying over night. During school holidays I am available during week days or weekends anytime, but during term time I would only be available after 3:30pm on the weekdays but any time on the weekends. I work as an LSA in a school with children with autism. So term time I am only available on the weekends. However, when it is the school holidays or a bank holiday I am free whenever, both weekdays and weekends. I have two dogs, one who is poorly and needs a buggy to go for a walk. My other dog is very fussy and likes to have special routines at bedtime. I love animals and want to care for them always. When I go away I have a pet sitter look after my dogs, so I know what it’s like from both perspectives. You would have access to me 24/7 when I am with your pet, so that you can call, FaceTime or text me whenever you need. I’ll send pictures and videos and give you regular updates. I am happy to clean up any messes and provide specific care such as tracking their toilet progress or giving medication. As I work with vulnerable children, I am on the dbs update service and have plenty of training under my belt such as first aid. I understand what it’s like to need things a certain way so I am more than happy to provide the care you require and your pets need.
About: I’ve owned cats and dogs my whole life at different stages. My family cat is currently 14 years old and I live with my partners family caring for a husky and a jack russell/pug I am currently on maternity leave so have ample free time to check in, play with and care for your animals. I just need to ensure they are child friendly as I would be bringing my newborn but they would not need to interact. I will follow all safety instructions provided by care givers on how to care for their animals to ensure they are safe and well looked after.
About: I've been around dogs for most of my life, with my family owning dogs for the past 17 years. Friends, family and neighbours have relied on me to help care for their pets when needed. I've helped care for my parents' dog, taking her on walks and working on commands like "leave" and "drop". I have four rabbits of my own, so I'm just as happy caring for small pets and can offer rabbit drop-ins too. I've also looked after my neighbour's cats while they've been away on holiday. I enjoy spending time with dogs and find that they usually settle well with me. I'll always aim to follow your pet's routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and cared for while you're away. As a mum of 2 I fully understand busy schedules. I can be available within school hours Monday - Friday with occasional, specific availability outside of this. My home environment is best suited to small, calm visiting dogs needing companionship due to my own pets. I have a secure front and back garden available for supervised toileting breaks. My main availability is for walks and drop in visits, where I can offer consistent care and attention in your pet’s own environment. I’m also very fortunate to be close to Epping Forest, Hainault forest, and surrounding green spaces, ideal for dogs who enjoy longer walks, exploring, or a good game of fetch. Locally, there are also plenty of quiet, safe streets suitable for regular lead walks.
About: From a young age, I've always had a passion for animals, which led me to take care of pets in my own household as well as those belonging to family and friends. Growing up, I learned the importance of responsibility and compassion while caring for various pets, including dogs, cats, and smaller animals. This experience taught me how to meet their needs, whether it was through feeding, grooming, or providing companionship. Over the years, I’ve developed a keen understanding of different animal behaviors and how to handle them in various situations. Whether it was comforting a nervous pet or ensuring a playful one got enough exercise, I’ve enjoyed every moment spent with them. My journey in pet care has not only strengthened my bond with animals but has also instilled in me a deep sense of responsibility and love for all creatures. I’m currently not working as I’m taking care of my toddler and he loves animal, he has been around cat and doggies and I would love to cuddle and give them all our attention and I think will be good for him and them. Creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where your dog feels comfortable at home. I follow your routine, give updates, and treat every pet like family.
About: We’re a friendly and caring couple who have both grown up with dogs and cats, so being around animals has always been a big part of our lives. We genuinely love spending time with pets and understand that every animal has its own personality, routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles or simply keeping them company, we’re happy to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the people caring for your pets, and we’ll treat them as if they were our own. We’re reliable, responsible and happy to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My partner and I work different shifts, which gives us plenty of flexibility when caring for pets. I usually work afternoons and evenings (typically 3pm–11pm), while my partner works 10am–6pm and spends two days a week working from home. As our schedules are rota-based and change weekly, we’re often able to accommodate different requests and routines. We enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and relaxing at home, and everything is a bit more fun when there’s a furry (or bald!) friend joining us. We understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and we do our best to make them feel comfortable and secure. We follow any instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise, or simply giving them space when they need it. Our home is calm, pet-friendly, and full of attention and affection. We love spending quality time with animals, whether that’s playing, exploring outside, or curling up on the sofa for a quiet evening together. We treat every pet as if they were our own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while in our care.
“Friendly and communicative throughout. Layla was comfortable with him and everything went smoothly overall. As Layla can sometimes be a little stubborn when meeting new walkers, a bit more confidence and experience handling hesitant dogs would be beneficial, but he was patient and keen to make sure she was comfortable. Thank you for looking after her.”

“I had a great experience with this dog walker on Rover. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my dog’s wellbeing. I appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog came back happy, well-exercised, and relaxed after the walk. It’s clear they have a natural connection with animals. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog walker.”
About: I have experience with cats, dogs and rabbits as I have been raised around them my whole life. I currently have a springer spaniel and two cats. Not only that, but I have a deep love for all animals, which is why I started providing services on Rover. I’m currently working for the London ambulance service, but still have time to fit in caring for your furry friends. Can be available mornings and evenings. Safety is my upmost priority so I would get to know the dogs personality, needs and medical issues. I also like to meet your furry friends in their environment first so they can feel most comfortable. I’m here to carry out the way you would care for your pets, so I take full care in learning how you would like you pet to be cared for. Locally, I know of safe trails for dog walks but I’m happy to take a route that is preferred if specified.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and rabbits of every kind since I was 3. I loved my pets so much. I had a kitty with diabetes so I am experienced in managing diabetes and doing insulin injections if needed. I can also measure your pet's blood glucose level. I am free in the evenings and during weekends. I can also consider looking after your pet during the day as I work from home. I have a fenced garden and two parks nearby where I will be taking your dogs for a walk. We live in a nice area with lovely neighbours. I work mainly from home so I will have plenty of time to look after and play with your fur babies. I love keeping active myself so can guarantee walks twice a day minimum :) I have a fenced garden and toys to keep your fur baby entertained. I can easily crate your your dog if needed. I will treat your pet like my own. I feed pets as instructed by their owners, ensure daily exercise and attention, and handle cleaning and grooming regularly. Weekly, I do deeper cleaning and check-ups to keep them healthy. I provide attentive pet care based on the service offered. My priority is to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for in any setting.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for many years now, both my own and those of friends and neighbours. I have volunteered with various rescue charities and thus have hands on experience with all sorts of doggies 😊 I have a fairly flexible schedule currently, meaning I have plenty of time to fit in around your dog, and early starts and late finishes are not a problem at all. I will cater to whatever your dog needs. Routine is important for dogs, so I will ensure I stick to their routine to cause as little disruption as possible and keep them feeling comfortable. Additionally with cats, I will cater to whatever your cats needs are to ensure they stay as comfortable as possible.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments for years, mostly for friends and family who trust me with their pets while they’re away. Animals seem to connect naturally with me; they sense calmness and genuine care, which helps them settle quickly. I focus on making every pet feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I’m patient, attentive to routines, and adapt easily to each pet’s personality, whether it’s an energetic puppy, a shy rescue, or an older companion needing a gentler touch. My schedule is very flexible. I work remotely, which allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day, from morning walks to evening cuddles. I plan my day around each pet’s needs and routine to keep them relaxed and happy while you’re away. I provide a calm, clean, and secure home environment where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and maintain open communication with regular photo and message updates. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space respectfully and ensure routines are followed exactly as requested. My goal is always the same, safety, trust, and peace of mind for both you and your pet.

“Henrietta was absolutely amazing with Percy. She took such good care of him and the joy and love of dogs shines through from her. I felt so reassured leaving Percy with her - she clearly devotes a lot of time and love to the dogs she looks after. She kept in touch regularly with updates and was so thoughtful and clearly cared a lot about Percy’s welfare. Her communication was amazing from start to finish. Honestly I can’t thank her enough and would happily leave Percy with her again anytime.”
“Seema and her family were lovely and we felt really comfortable leaving Tiggy with them. We got text updates, and Seema even slept downstairs with her. When we picked Tiggy up she was relaxed and happy. We would definitely book again!”
About: Hi there! I’m a postgraduate student in psychology with a deep passion for animal care and behavior. Having cared for my own Golden Retriever, Nacho, for over seven years, I am very experienced in the day-to-day routines of dog care. Beyond caring for my own dog, I regularly pet-sit and walk dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, handling dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I work flexibly at the moment, which allows me to give your dog my full attention. I typically do 30 to 60-minute walks, taking full advantage of a great park just 10 minutes from my place, and I’ll happily send photo updates if you wish to know how your pup is doing! (Note: Since Nacho lives with me, any dogs coming to my home for care or visits must be comfortable living alongside another dog!) I look forward to meeting you and giving your dog the care and companionship they deserve. My own dog is among the highlights of my daily life, so I always ensure she’s had her fill of fun each day. I’m currently in the process of finishing up my dissertation, so I have a very free and flexible schedule that allows me to easily house and give proper care to our fuzzy friends. I have a fenced garden, and a perfect golden retriever therapy dog to accompany your pet. Chances are, we already have a lot of tools and toys for your dog to enjoy, and my family are also present and happy to spend time with them.
“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!”
“Hands down the best dog sitters/ boarders I have ever booked for my dog Marple- and I have booked with many! Marple is an extremely high energy parson Russell and I was so impressed with how amazing and attentive Brian was in sending me lots of updates and photos and I was not anxious at all. I will definitely book him again. Marple was so well cared for and happy when she was dropped back and Brian had also spotted a potential injury that I had overlooked. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“Bertie spent 5 nights with Tony and we are really glad that we found him. Tony was very patient with Bertie, even when he’s not behaving, since Bertie is still a young puppy. We were initially very worried but Tony sent us daily updates which included photos and videos, which really helped, given that this is the first time we’ve left him overnight with someone else. We’d definitely consider using Tony again in the future and would easily recommend others to use him for boarding. We genuinely think that Bertie enjoyed his stay with Tony and Archie (Tony’s Dog).”
“Emily was superb - easy to speak to in advance and organise our dog’s stay with, Gramps (our dog) seemed to have a great time and Emily kept us up to date with how it was going and took her on lots of nice walks. Couldn’t be happier, will use Emily again.”

“Gabriella was fantastic with Leo! She provided daily updates of how his day went and what he done with pictures included, he always looked to be having great fun in her house and was well socialised! Gabriella was so welcoming when we dropped Leo off for his almost 2 week stay with her and showed us where he would be spending his time with her which always puts your mind at ease! We would definitely recommend and will definitely be using Gabriella again ❤️”
“Excellent sitter, great communication. Thomas came to meet our dog before the first booking, he offered pick up and drop off, sent regular updates and looked after him really well. Highly recommended.”
“Lizzy and her partner Bobby were great with my dog, Ed! They were super easy to contact and sent photo updates of Ed having a wonderful time:) he was well looked-after, taken on some lovely walks and was made to feel really comfortable at their place! Thanks so much- would really recommend”
“Ella and Ed have been a pleasure in boarding my River. River is an energetic, fun loving and affectionate staffy who can be a handful sometimes but took to Ella and Ed immediately! I was sent photos and communicated with daily and River loved the attention! She has come home knackered which is a good sign she had a blast. I definitely recommend, and defintely will be booking again. 5 stars across the board from me and River!”
“Andreea was fantastic with Nico. She was kind, attentive, and kept me reassured throughout his stay. Nico came back happy and settled, which says everything. I’m so grateful for the care she gave him and would highly recommend her.”
“Hannah and Seb were great. We felt so comfortable leaving Madge in their really lovely flat and she clearly felt very comfortable there. The communication was good and we’d have no hesitation in leaving Madge with them again (if they’d have her!)”
“I am so grateful for Israel! He looked after my dog, who is a boisterous excitable crazy puppy with such ease and grace. My dog Sonny is absolutely obsessed with Israel and now has a friend for life! Thank you so so much!”
“Nicola was wonderful with our pooch, Dennis. She was extremely communicative before and during, and totally unfazed by his slightly mad flattie ways. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Elizabeth looked after our 10 month old puppy Olive, she regularly updated me and took pics of olive and sent them. Very happy with the service and Olive seemed happy too! Already booking her for the next holiday!! X”
