“Fantastic, reliable and flexible boarder. Our dog was in great hands and loving company of the whole family and corgi Marta. We received videos/photos every day. Would be delighted to use boarding services again. Thank you Nataliya, Marta and the whole family.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Saya received over the 4 days. Dominika was amazing from the start—great communication and very friendly, which made me feel completely at ease. Saya was clearly very well looked after, happy, and comfortable the whole time. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which showed she was enjoying herself and in safe hands. It’s obvious that Dominika genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. I would definitely recommend her and will 100% be using her again in the future. Thank you so much, Dominika, for taking such good care of Saya!”
“If you need to leave your canine pal with a sitter who knows and understands dogs, then look no further than Andrew. Hector, my Flat Coat Retriever is a 40 Kilo loveable chap, buit can be a bit of a handful. When I got him back home he was pleasantly exhausted both mentally and physically, which suggests that he was entertained during his stay with Andrew and was not simply ignored. Thanks Andrew.”
“I highly recommend Trish. She took such loving care of Poppy plus sent me updates and photos. I feel lucky to have found her, especially when another sitter dropped out at short notice. It may have been Poppy's first stay with Trish, but not her last ;-)”
“Karyna and Tom were absolutely amazing with Sirius! ☺️ From day one, they kept me updated with messages and photos, which made me feel completely at ease. It was clear he felt happy, safe and loved, he settled in so quickly and even became their little shadow! 🐶 I couldn’t recommend them more and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you both so much! 💛”
“Ross is great. His house is big with back yard. Ace is happy to stay several days with him. There are not too many dogs in house. More space for dog. By thd way, Ace is very clean when I take it back.”
“Maddie loved staying with Jessica (and Kent), who treated her wonderfully. Jessica kept us well informed about how Maddie was getting on, with lots of lovely photos, and showed a real interest in Maddie's wellbeing (Maddie felt a bit poorly on one occasion). As a Senior dog Maddie appreciated being carried up stairs, and being allowed to sleep wherever she wanted. Maddie would love to come back to Jessica when we are next away.”
“Jess and Gareth are absolute gems!! Their home was absolutely a home away from home for our little pup. This was the first time we left our dog with someone we didn't know prior, and I have to say Jess and Gareth made the whole journey a breeze. From meeting them prior to our trip so pup could meet them and get familiar to the sights and smells of their home, to the daily correspondence and pics of pup while we were away. Jess, Gareth, thank you again so much for looking after our little fluff. Already planning Capi's next stay-cation ??”
“Ornela was fantastic with Twiglet, he had a great couple of days and had lots of fun! Really good communication and I received regular updates. Definitely will look forward to booking Twiglet a stay with Ornela and her family again.”
“We booked our dog for the first time with a dog sitter, and it went really well! Kit Ying Stephanie really looked after our dog and sent me loads of videos and pictures of how Bobby was getting on. We would highly recommend this dog sitter to anyone and we shall definitely be booking again in the future.”
“Eve is absolutely amazing seater! She was flexible and we had great communication, with lots of updates! Jaffa enjoyed staying with her, and we will definitely be happy to leave him with Eve again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Shark, received. From the very beginning, it was clear how much love and attention she gives to the pets she looks after. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Shark instantly connected with her and came back happy, relaxed, and full of energy. It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but she went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional petsitter”
“Matt was lovely all the way through dealing with him, even though I originally changed the dates. He sent lots of pictures while I was away, and Mickey loved him. I would highly recommend and will be returning when I next go away”
“Lucy and her family took great care of Monty. It was his first over night staying without people he knew so I was so glad to hear he'd had such a great time. He had so much lovely play time and walks and is really looking forward to seeing Lucy and her family again. Lucy sent me lots of pics and updates which was great and so good to know how he was and what he was up to. Thanks Lucy!”
“Leigh was absolutely brilliant with Barbara, accommodating all her needs (attention, cuddles and walks!) Great communication and sent photos and updates. Barbara was super happy and I wouldn't hesitate booking again.”
“Milo was taken such great care of, and he was really happy during his stay. I can tell he already misses his friends there!! Genna is very responsible and always replied to my messages quickly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She also sent regular photo updates, which I really appreciated. I would definitely book with her again for our next holiday. Thank you so much!!”
“Anna sent us frequent and detailed updates on how our cockapoo was spending time with the family and how well she fitted in. This was followed with some great photos which gave me great joy and reassurance that all was ok. Anna's care was faultless and I'd be happy to book with her again.”
“Our dog has had a fabulous time with Roger and Barbara. He was well looked after, received lots of attention and daily walks. It was easy to stay in touch. Roger sent us frequent updates with photos and videos. Overall, our dog returned home happy and healthy. Would definitely recommend!”

“Alice has looked after Falstaff a few times now, and she's always really communicative and friendly. Falstaff waits for her at the door whn she's catsitting, so he must like her too :)”
“I’ve used Annie multiple times now and couldn’t be happier. Reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. I always feel completely at ease knowing my cat is in great hands. Highly recommend! :)”
“Samantha and her daughter did an excellent job looking after our cat! Communication was quick and clear, received daily updates and pictures and they even went an extra mile to wait for us to come back first before dropping off the keys in case of a delayed flight. Thank you both again! Definitely recommend!”
“Suzy did a great job looking after our French domestic, punctual and sorted out food and water. Provided fantastic pictures of our cat, easy to communicate and clearly very good with cats!”
“Lexi was really communicative and looked after Luis and the house really well. He seemed happy when we returned and his feeder was filled and used properly. The house was also left clean and tidy. We’d love to have Lexi look after Luis again soon. Thank you!”
“Always pleased to have Silvia as a cat sitter - flexible and easy to work with, but the best part is the pictures of each visit. It's clear our cats actually like her, unlike previous services we've used!”
“This is the second time Bonnie looked after my cats and I cannot recommend her enough!! She’s very reliable, communication was excellent - I received updates regularly - and she genuinely is very good with cats. l didn’t have to stress at all while on holiday, as I knew I’d be returning home to 3 x happy kitties and a clean place. Thank you ☺️”
About: Hi I am Olivia and this is Barry my two year old Labrador. He is a calm and friendly dog who gets on well with everyone and is always happy to have company. I have grown up with dogs my whole life, from Newfoundlands to French Bulldogs, so I am comfortable with all sizes and all temperaments. I work from home a few days a week which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for walks and drop ins. We live in a secure flat and I drive so travelling is not a problem. I have a real interest in puppy training and understanding dog behaviour, and my long term goal is to become a dog trainer. I am always learning and practising positive training methods with Barry and I enjoy helping pups feel confident and calm. I am a patient and caring person and I will always treat your dog with the same attention and respect I give my own. Barry is castrated and well mannered, so he is a great companion for dogs who like having a friend on their walks. I am looking forward to meeting your dog and helping make your day a little easier. I work from home on Monday Wednesday and Friday, and I am off on Saturdays and Sundays, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks and drop ins. I have parks close by which makes it easy to take dogs out multiple times a day. I can fit walks around your dogs usual routine and I am happy to work with whatever times suit you best. We live in a flat which is secure. We are on the second floor, but we have access to the shared garden which is gated and fenced off.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 11. I often house sit for friends when they go on holiday and need their cats looked after! Cats absolutely love me as I stroke them 24/7 ensuring they never feel lonely. I can also recognise when cats need their space and want to be left alone. I’ve raised my own cat from a little kitten so I know how to take care of even the youngest of cats.
About: I have taken care of my cat Izzy from 2 months old. I have learnt to understand cats, especially as Izzy doesn’t really like people, and have provided her with play time, ensuring she has eaten. I have also volunteered at my hometown animal shelter, and helped multiple cats feel calm and stay healthy after being abandoned. The cats in the shelter were of all ages
About: I’ve always adored cats and have had them as family pets. I’ve taken care of our own cat, Pablo, for 9 years and the cats of family and friends when they have been away. They are definitely my favourite animals!
About: I’ve loved my grumpy sassy cat for over 10 years and he has taught me a lot! I often look after my neighbours cats while they go away so have lots of experiences with different ages and breeds
About: I’ve taken care of friend and family pets for years, a reliable and dedicated animal lover who takes responsibility very seriously ! I always aim to ensure the animal (Cat, dog or bird) is settled in well and has an enjoyable and safe stay! Whether that be some sofa time or lots of walks and playing outside. I have had 2 years dog sitting with Rover previously as part of a house share and we always had great feedback and return pets! Just reach out with any questions at all, more than happy for a chat! I work 2 days working from home and have flexibility with my evenings and weekends to ensure full time care for your lovely furry friend Very flexible and secure. I have a small fenced shared garden, a secure ground floor home and plenty of local parks and river walk for outside time !
About: My experience with cats comes entirely from being a devoted owner. I grew up with a cat and have spent years living with and caring for my five Sphynx cats, each with their own distinct personality and needs. From confident and velcro cats to shy and nervous ones, I understand that cats require patience, respect for their boundaries, and a calm environment to feel safe and settled.
“Natalie looked after my very old cat, Steve, beautifully. She sent me photographs and a detailed message about how he was getting on twice a day throughout the fortnight that I was away. She got to know him and his little quirks very quickly, which was so reassuring. As well as Steve, Natalie also watered my greenhouse and plant pots, and put out the bins. All much appreciated in this heatwave. I will definitely use Natali again and would recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter most highly.”
“Ellie is an amazing and trustworthy pet sitter. She looked after our 2 kittens while we were away and she was genuinely loving and caring for them. She kept us updated with pictures and messages everyday and she kept their spaces clean and tidy. We would definitely recommend her to everyone. Thanks Ellie 💖🙏✨”

“Dominika took such great care of my dog, Salsa, while she was at daycare. She was incredibly attentive, made sure Salsa was comfortable and happy, and even helped administer her medication with no issues at all. She also provided regular photo updates, which gave me real peace of mind and was so lovely to receive throughout the day. I would 100% book with Dominika again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”

“Andrew is excellent. Bunty has stayed with him 3 times so far and she's had a great time. He understands training which helps hugely as Bunty is a newly rescued dog.”
“I can not thank Ross and His partner enough. Not only did they help and look after Milo with very little notice, they did it in a fantastic way. Welcomed I to their home and he loved every minute. I was stuck in horrible traffic and the went above and beyond and had no issues with keeping him for several hours over pick up time. THANK YOU, YOU ABSOLUTE LEGENDS.”

About: I’m a reliable, calm and attentive sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well looked after while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and temperaments, from energetic young pets that need patience and consistency, to senior pets that require a gentler, more attentive approach. I’m confident sticking to routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement and administering basic medication if needed. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give. I take the time to build trust with each animal, understand their personality and create a calm environment where they feel relaxed and secure. I’m also extremely clean, respectful and dependable, so owners can feel confident both their pets and home are in safe hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, consistency and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks, playtime and keeping to feeding schedules are something I’m happy to prioritise. I’m also organised and flexible, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s individual routine and needs. I always prioritise creating a safe, calm and familiar environment for pets, whether I’m in my own home or caring for them in theirs. I follow the owner’s instructions closely so their routine stays consistent, including feeding, walks, medication and any specific care needs. In a pet owner’s home, I treat the space with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I make sure doors, gates and windows are properly secured and that pets are never put in risky situations on walks or during play. I take time to build trust with each pet, moving at their pace and paying close attention to their behaviour so I can respond to their needs properly. My goal is always to keep them relaxed, safe and comfortable while their owner is away.
About: Hi, I’m Georgiana! I’m a big animal lover and proud dog mum to two sighthound pups. I’ve grown up around animals and have lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs — from energetic puppies to older, more sensitive souls. I know how important it is to find someone you can really trust with your pets. I’m gentle, patient, and always make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or just calm company, I care for every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently studying for my PhD, so my schedule is flexible, and I love using my time outdoors for walks and cuddles with animals. My work is flexible as it is research it can change day to day/week to week therefore my schedule is flexible and can be adapted around demand. When I am with your pets I will solely focus on them, they will be my priority because I am a very caring vegan and animals are so precious to me. I will follow your instructions for how you would like your pet to be looked after. I will also focus on your animal to make sure their needs are attended to as and when they need something be it a cuddle, a treat, a fresh air break, or a good play session.
About: Howdy, y'all! I grew up in central Texas where I helped rescue and re-home 6+ dogs from kill shelters in San Antonio -- walking, feeding, bathing, introducing dogs to new environments, and finding two of them their furever homes. 🏡 I've handled everything from bouncy puppies to senior dogs who just need a calm presence and a good longgg, slow walk. 🐕 Now based in Kingston, I specialize in dog walking and drop-in visits. My schedule is remote & flexible, so I can work around yours -- mornings, mid-afternoons, evenings, whatever your pup needs! I treat every walk like it matters, because it does :) For regular clients I already know and trust, I'm also happy to discuss boarding in my private top-floor room, which is calm, quiet, and fully separated from the rest of the house. 🐾 🐶 I work flexibly from home, which means I'm around most days and can fit walks and drop-ins into my routine without stress. The occasional commitment aside, my schedule is adaptable for mornings, afternoons, and evenings -- just let me know what your dog needs. In fact, I look forward to having an excuse to get out of the house! I'm based in a house where there's already a resident dog, so any pup coming to stay would be entering a dog-familiar environment, though I keep my solo top-floor room completely separate if you'd prefer your dog to have their own calm space away from the household. I'm experienced at introducing dogs to new environments and other animals from my rescue work, so I'm confident in managing the meet process carefully. Since I work remotely and flexibly, I genuinely love having a dog around on my Rover days -- whether that's a pup chillin' under my desk, hangin' out by my piano, or giving me the perfect excuse to take frequent walking breaks throughout the day! 🐾 🐶
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and compassionate pet sitter with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Whether it’s playful puppies who need consistency and training, or sweet senior pets who require a little extra patience and attention, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. I’m confident handling pets with special requirements, administering medications, managing dietary needs, and providing gentle support for older animals. I also have experience with basic obedience training and reinforcing good behaviors in younger dogs. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable presence and genuine love for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering plenty of cuddles, playtime, and one-on-one attention. I prioritize communication with pet parents, sending regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and reassured. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m currently studying forensic science at university, which has taught me to be extremely detail-oriented, reliable, and focused—qualities I bring into every pet-sitting experience. I also work on weekends, which has helped me develop strong time management skills and a high level of responsibility. Even with a busy schedule, I always make time for what I truly enjoy: caring for animals. I’m also free during university holidays, which gives me more flexibility during the week for daytime visits, walks, or longer stays. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening drop-ins, I ensure each pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a pet owner’s home, I always create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. At my home, pets have access to a secure, fully fenced garden—perfect for outdoor play and potty breaks. The fences are high and well-maintained, so you can feel confident that your pet will stay safe while enjoying time outside. I keep my home clean, tidy, and pet-friendly at all times, making sure it’s a welcoming space for animals to relax, play, and feel at home. I maintain routines for feeding, walks, and rest, and I’m always attentive to each pet’s individual needs—whether that’s extra cuddle time, medication, or just a quiet space to rest. When caring for pets in their own home, I’m respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s usual schedule and routines to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I treat every pet like family, no matter where the care takes place.
“Though Bella stayed for just a few hours , she was happy and had a good time. Jessica and Gareth were really helpful by responding to messages immediately. Also we were running late and they were kind enough to come out to take Bella. Bella enjoyed her time at their balcony and was relaxed. We will definitely book here again when we need to keep Bella in London.”
“Xiangyi is an absolutely fantastic dog sitter. I get loads of photos, my dog is always walked and she absolutely spoils him rotten. I can't believe he actually wants to come home!”
“To Maria , Brian & Ollie for the third time. Ebs had a great day and came back happy and tired. Ollie should get extra treatos for alllll the playing. Maria couldn’t be nicer and more helpful. She really helped me out today being so flexible when my plans were a bit of a moveable feast. Would really recommend them. Thanks guys!”
“Jan is absolutely lovely I am so happy I’ve found someone who loves doggies so much and looked after my boy so well! Ziggy was very excited to go and play with pickles. Regular updates were great!”

“Dave was really excited to go on another walk with Joana and came back happy. She also turned up with a portable dog water bowl and water for him given the warm weather. Really considerate!”
About: Hi! I'm a huge dog lover and I've been taking care of golden retrievers since I was around 8 years old. I love interacting and playing with animals, and enjoy caring for them! I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and always try to make sure they feel safe, and happy during walks. I'm happy to care for both small and large dogs! I'm currently graduated from high school, so I'll have plenty of time to play and care your dogs! I'm available most weekdays and weekends during the summer. Feel free to message me for availability! Your dog's safety and comfort are always my priority. During walks, I pay close attention to the surrounding environment and carefully observe each dog's condition. I’m comfortable with both small and large dogs and will make sure they feel safe and enjoy their walks!
“Lexi has been super professional and reliable. She is always on time and accommodating when we’ve needed changes. Our Bruno loves her and enjoys his walks with her. She has learned quickly what Bruno needs for mental stimulation and he’s always ready for a nap after his walks. Lexi has been great at communicating with us and keeps us updated.”
About: I'm a passionate animal lover who shares my home with my miniature poodle Camembert (Cami) and five Sphynx cats, so animals are very much at the centere of my daily life. Cami is friendly, polite with other dogs, and great company for any other dogs on a walk :) While I'm new to working with dogs professionally, I have genuine hands-on experience with a wide range of dogs, from a tiny fox terrier puppy to a 70kg Akita mix, a reactive German Shepherd/Husky cross, cocker spaniels, puggles, and more. I've also cared for dogs in my home for extended periods, including a boisterous 10 month old Labrador/Staffy cross who needed structure and routine, and a 12 year old Beagle who needed a calm and gentle environment. I'm currently working towards my Kennel Club Crufts Bronze Good Citizen award with Cami, and enrolled on IMDT courses to become a certified dog trainer, so while I'm at the start of my professional journey, I'm actively building the knowledge and skills to back up my passion. Every dog in my care gets my full attention. I keep my bookings small deliberately, so I can give each one the time and care they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Cami and I start every day with a morning walk, and we also do an hour of training split across two sessions in our garden, so structure and consistency are already baked into my day. Monday to Friday I'm based at home(self employed), giving me flexibility to fit drop in visits and walks around a steady, animal focused routine. I treat every client's home with the same care I'd want shown to my own. I follow the owner's instructions to the letter when it comes to keys, access, and keeping the property secure, and I make sure everything is locked up properly before I leave. Before any booking I ask for a full picture of the animal, their habits, quirks, and any specific needs. Wherever possible I also like to do a meet and greet with the owner present beforehand, so the dog can get familiar with me in a relaxed setting, the owner can see how we interact, and we can all make sure it feels like the right fit before committing to anything.
About: I’ve taken care of my family dogs back home (2) for a couple of years until I had to move abroad. My partner (Kent Sampson) will also be supporting - we both have taken care of friends dogs and my partners parents' dog when they needed! We both love animals and would love to help you with your pet while helping me missing our lovely dogs a bit less! Me and my partner (Kent S.) both work an office job, 9-5, but have quite some flexibility as our work is hybrid! I work from the office 2x a week and try to coordinate with my partner to go on alternative days - we both have availability to walk dogs in the mornings, lunch time and afternoons with prior planning :) We have a backyard shared with 2 other flats, where your dog can play and a park 3 min walk away! I would offer them a warm environment and give them the care they need, always aligned with the owners wishes!
“Olena in her first meeting was professional, pleasant and pet knowledgeable. She took time to sit down with lots of great questions. We felt very comfortable trusting Olena with our precious pet.”

I have a real interest in puppy training and understanding dog behaviour, and my long term goal is to become a dog trainer. I am always learning and practising positive training methods with Barry and I enjoy helping pups feel confident and calm. I am a patient and caring person and I will always treat your dog with the same attention and respect I give my own. Barry is castrated and well mannered, so he is a great companion for dogs who like having a friend on their walks. I am looking forward to meeting your dog and helping make your day a little easier. I work from home on Monday Wednesday and Friday, and I am off on Saturdays and Sundays, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks and drop ins. I have parks close by which makes it easy to take dogs out multiple times a day. I can fit walks around your dogs usual routine and I am happy to work with whatever times suit you best. We live in a flat which is secure. We are on the second floor, but we have access to the shared garden which is gated and fenced off.
About: I am an experienced dog walker, and have been responsible for walking my heavy boxer George through varied terrains. I would often walk more than one dog, as I have cared for my neighbors dogs before, who are a bit smaller than my boxer. I was responsible for my dogs behavior training, medication management (including regular and important medications now my George is an older boy) and trick training. I’ve also cared for my cat Izzy since she was a kitten, ensuring her well being and understanding feline behavior. I have also volunteered at my hometown animal shelter, walking and feeding dog all of different sizes, aswell as dealing with dogs that aren’t trusty of people or trained due to being abandoned. Although I don’t live with my pets anymore, I still see them as they live with my parents. I am currently fully flexible, so I am able to look after your pets this summer regardless of your needs. I am willing to come to any location and adapt to your needs. From ensuring my cat and my dog stayed safe and in the house in my hometown, which was a mountainous where a pet can easily be lost, i can assure I am a trustworthy attentive person.
About: I have several years of experience caring for small to medium-sized dogs, as well as over 10 years of experience looking after cats. I take a gentle, patient, and friendly approach with all animals, always making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and building trust with them, so they feel safe and happy in my care. I’m currently looking for work, whilst doing some freelance work so my schedule is pretty flexible, therefore plenty of time for looking after pets! I provide attentive, in-home pet care by following the owner’s routine, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic care. I ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment.
“Very pleased to find Andrew round the corner from us! He regularly walks our dog, Olive, he is very reliable and took the time to get to know her. He is very friendly and easy to communicate with.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 11. I walk all the time and love to take dogs with me. I often house sit for friends when they go on holiday and need their pets looked after! I’m working part-time at the moment so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of pets. I go on long walks for photography and I love nature and a little furry company never hurts. A night in with a book and a pet by my side is my ideal night. I try to make pets feel comfortable by keeping to their usual routine. I make sure they’re fed, exercised, played with, and given lots of attention and care. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions and keep owners updated while they’re away.

“Fantastic, reliable and flexible boarder. Our dog was in great hands and loving company of the whole family and corgi Marta. We received videos/photos every day. Would be delighted to use boarding services again. Thank you Nataliya, Marta and the whole family.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Saya received over the 4 days. Dominika was amazing from the start—great communication and very friendly, which made me feel completely at ease. Saya was clearly very well looked after, happy, and comfortable the whole time. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which showed she was enjoying herself and in safe hands. It’s obvious that Dominika genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. I would definitely recommend her and will 100% be using her again in the future. Thank you so much, Dominika, for taking such good care of Saya!”
“I highly recommend Trish. She took such loving care of Poppy plus sent me updates and photos. I feel lucky to have found her, especially when another sitter dropped out at short notice. It may have been Poppy's first stay with Trish, but not her last ;-)”
“Karyna and Tom were absolutely amazing with Sirius! ☺️ From day one, they kept me updated with messages and photos, which made me feel completely at ease. It was clear he felt happy, safe and loved, he settled in so quickly and even became their little shadow! 🐶 I couldn’t recommend them more and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you both so much! 💛”
“Ross is great. His house is big with back yard. Ace is happy to stay several days with him. There are not too many dogs in house. More space for dog. By thd way, Ace is very clean when I take it back.”
“Jess and Gareth are absolute gems!! Their home was absolutely a home away from home for our little pup. This was the first time we left our dog with someone we didn't know prior, and I have to say Jess and Gareth made the whole journey a breeze. From meeting them prior to our trip so pup could meet them and get familiar to the sights and smells of their home, to the daily correspondence and pics of pup while we were away. Jess, Gareth, thank you again so much for looking after our little fluff. Already planning Capi's next stay-cation ??”
“Eve is absolutely amazing seater! She was flexible and we had great communication, with lots of updates! Jaffa enjoyed staying with her, and we will definitely be happy to leave him with Eve again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Shark, received. From the very beginning, it was clear how much love and attention she gives to the pets she looks after. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Shark instantly connected with her and came back happy, relaxed, and full of energy. It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but she went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional petsitter”
“Matt was lovely all the way through dealing with him, even though I originally changed the dates. He sent lots of pictures while I was away, and Mickey loved him. I would highly recommend and will be returning when I next go away”
“Lucy and her family took great care of Monty. It was his first over night staying without people he knew so I was so glad to hear he'd had such a great time. He had so much lovely play time and walks and is really looking forward to seeing Lucy and her family again. Lucy sent me lots of pics and updates which was great and so good to know how he was and what he was up to. Thanks Lucy!”
“Milo was taken such great care of, and he was really happy during his stay. I can tell he already misses his friends there!! Genna is very responsible and always replied to my messages quickly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She also sent regular photo updates, which I really appreciated. I would definitely book with her again for our next holiday. Thank you so much!!”
“Spyroula was wonderful with Alby. He warmed to her straight away, which is always the best sign, and her updates throughout the boarding were consistent and reassuring. What stood out most was how reliable and trustworthy she is – I left feeling completely at ease, and came to pick up a happy, settled dog. Highly recommend.”
“Lauren watched Teddy for us for 10 days recently, and I had a great experience with her from the first meeting until she dropped him off. While Teddy was with her, Lauren kept us totally updated and even took him on a beach vacation. I saw pictures and videos of Teddy looking super happy, and that really put my mind at ease. I'd definitely trust Lauren with Teddy again. Thanks, Lauren.”
“I can’t thank Charlotte enough for taking care of our dog Freddie for 2 nights. We were constantly kept updated with pictures and messages which was so lovely to see. I think Freddie would have stayed for another week if he could. He had the best time ever. We will be using Charlotte again for sure. Highly recommend ! ❤️”
“Rocky spent 10 days with Hollie and I couldn't be happier. I collected one very happy Staffie yesterday 😊 I would highly recommend Hollie for her care and obvious love of dogs. I will definitely be using her services again, it was such a weight off my mind to be able to go on holiday and know Rocky was going to be so well looked after”
“Yasemin was fantastic. She and her family took very good care of Anu while we were away. She gave regular updates and sent photos and videos of Anu, which I really appreciated. I also appreciate that I was able to book at short notice and she was very understanding about my circumstances in the length of the booking. When I came to pick up Anu I could see that he had bonded with Yasemin and her son. I definitely recommend and will be using her help in the future as well.”
“I would give 6 stars if I could, Luigi had a fabulous weekend!! Rhianna booked me super last minute and was super accommodating. I have tried several sitters but tmher comms was the best I've had so far - I received loads of updates throughout the weekend so I wasn't worried in any way. Luigi was administered all his meds as instructed which was very reassuring. My boy is a precious cavvie and he spent the weekend on blankets being cuddles so he really had the best time. I couldn't recommend Rhianna highly enough, I'll definitely reach out again if ever in need! Thank you so much again!”
“Our first time leaving our dogs and we were really nervous clarissa sent so much updates about them and made us feel at ease will definitely be rebooking in the future”
