“We can't recommend Katherine highly enough. We reached out to her with a last-minute request, and she was incredibly responsive and accommodating from the start. It was clear right away that she genuinely cares about animals, and our Holly seemed to approve of her immediately. While we were away, Katherine kept us updated with messages and photos of Holly, which was so reassuring and gave us real peace of mind. Knowing Holly was happy and well looked after meant we could relax and enjoy our time away. When we got home, Holly was content, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. Katherine was reliable, thoughtful, and treated both our pet and our home with great care and respect. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is so important, and Katherine made the whole experience easy and stress-free. We will definitely use her services again without question and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter. Thank you, Katherine!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 12, and I finally got a cat of my own when I was 13 (after years of begging). I regularly catsit for my friends or family - anything to get some time with a cat as I’m not ready or able to commit to rescuing my own.
About: All my life I've grown up with dogs: Rhodesian Ridgebacks (magnificent), Dachshunds (naughty but unstoppably lovable), a Yorkie (my number one playmate) and a Basenji (crafty and my soulmate). I live with my long term partner Oliver and we joke that we are not kid broody, but dog broody so excuse me if I only have eyes for your handsome hound. Big or small, I can't help but hunch down and extend my hand to every pooch I meet. I am a calm, intuitive person with dogs who loves getting to know their personalities and quirks. And I'm pretty good with cats...if they let me ;) I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My partner and I like to travel on the weekends so I'm best suited for your weekday needs. Just let me know in advance and I'm pretty good at fitting your pooch in :) The pet is the king of the castle, though it needs to be house trained. I'm pretty chilled for your fur baby to have the run of the place and couch, the park is the only bathroom. Your hound or feline will have a dedicated place to eat and drink (always fresh) and can stick right by my side or have their privacy during the day. I am right next to two parks so it's just a quick trot to have fun and exercise. I work from home and the dogs and I go for a walk 2-3 times a day. As I work from home for the majority of the week, I often have a client over. I ensure they have access to food and water at all times and ensure they are comfortable. We do have short staircases in our home, so dogs that are uncomfortable with these may not be the best clients. I'm careful where food or anything chewable can be found.

Fran even came over on a Saturday to make sure Marge and her could get acquainted first. Fran was fun and entertaining coming up with games, giving Marge walks and snuggles and kept her busy. The photos I recieved of Marge were so beautiful that they so perfectly captured her. I cannot recommend Fran enough. Marge has made a BFF”

About: I am a caring and reliable cat lover with over 3 years of experience looking after my own cats. In China, I was actively involved in helping stray cats, including trapping them for neutering, providing basic care, and helping them find loving homes through adoption.

“Sam is an absolute professional. Clearly has a lot of experience with dogs and takes time to get to know their specific needs and quirks and makes sure to work around them. As the owner of quite a high demand and drive dog I was very impressed how quickly Sam was able to adapt to her needs. Couldn’t recommend highly enough, 10/10.”
About: I’ve looked after a cocker spaniel for 14 years, from being a naughty puppy to being a slow - but wise - elder statesman who took his time! I’m currently retired whilst doing some consultancy work, so I have time to walk a dog during the day, and prepared to drive to Wimbledon and Putney if required I won’t be offering dog sitting services, so this section does not apply; suffice to say I am a very careful, caring and trustworthy person.
“Lizzie is great, she’s good at communicating and Teddy adores her 💖 We’ve bumped into Lizzie recently, when Teddy wasn’t booked in, and the level of excitement he had when he saw her was adorable, he really loves spending time with her.”
About: Dogs are the BEST, we all know that. I have never been able to get my own but I will one day. In the meantime, I am taking every single opportunity I can find to spend time with dogs. And yes I am that person. The one who smiles to every single dog on the street? Borrow friends' dogs whenever possible? Actually wants to see pictures of your dog? Even if I have always been around dogs, I have really started dog sitting for family and friends in 2020, for durations ranging from 10 days to 9 weeks. The biggest dog under my loving care is 43kg (a very sweet English bulldog). Please note that I have limited experience with puppies younger than 1 year old). However, my brother just got a 5-month old miniature American shepherd (Saito) and I cannot wait to bridge this experience gap! I have recently completed a Pet First Aid & CPR course (April 2026) This is my main activity and something I absolutely love doing. I am quite flexible on week days and on weekends and can accommodate long-term requests if needed, as well as visits to the vet etc My top priorities are your peace of mind and your furry fried's comfort - being away from a beloved pet is stressful enough as it is. Each pet has their own individual personality, needs, and boundaries and it is my job to know these and ensure their routine is not disrupted. I have also recently completed a Pet 1st Aid & CPR training course.
“Shane M a nice guy who took the time to meet with Freddy before he started his walks. We had some great conversations about Freddy, and Shane was attentive to all the details I shared about him. It's vital for me to have someone who listens carefully, and Shane certainly did that. Unlike other sitters who may just want to gather information through messages, Shane made the effort to come and meet Freddy in person. It's important for me to know that our little furry friend is in good hands when we're not at home, and Shane really demonstrated that he understands this responsibility. I can’t express how much it means to me to see Freddy 🐶 happy and well cared for. Communication is key, and Shane kept me updated with photos and everything I needed to know. I can confidently say that he is an excellent sitter who genuinely loves dogs. Anyone in the Wandsworth town area can trust that their pets will be well looked after with Shane. I highly recommend him! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve looked after and walked dogs since I was 10 years old. I’ve been fortunate enough to have my own whilst growing up and also friends, neighbours and family have also asked me to look after and walk their dogs when needed. I would love to be able to look after others dogs as though they were my own. I currently have a hybrid working schedule where I am in the office two days a week and wfh the other three. As my job role is very flexible I have the option to assist personal tasks around work tasks. I already walk a lot throughout the day generally hitting 15-20k steps and would love a furry friend to take with me. I also have weekend availability and could work around the needs of the owner. I am a friendly, approachable, caring and trusted individual that I know I would be able to look after your dog and care for them at the same standard you do.

About: Growing up in South Africa, there was never a time we didn’t have animals in our home - they were a part of our family! Being surrounded by pets from a young age taught me how to care for them with love, patience, and compassion. I now live in Wandsworth Town with my husband, and we both absolutely love animals. While he enjoys their company as much as I do, I would be the primary carer as I work remotely - with a 4-day work week - allowing me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care; whether it’s for daycare, walks, or overnight stays. I'm fully remote, including a four day work week. This allows me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets, and they would not be alone during the day. I live in a flat with two juliet balconies. Your pets would be welcome on our bed and furniture, and we have various parks nearby.

About: I’ve grown up having lots of animals: horses, chickens, sheep, rabbits, dogs, hamsters and cats. I have been responsible to look after them including walking, feeding, bathing and entertaining. I have also looked after friends pets whilst they’ve have been away. I love looking getting know pets and understand each of their personalities. I really miss not being around animals that I’ve moved to London and am unable to have animals in my house. I can’t wait to get to know your beloved dogs/cats. I currently work from home 9:30-5:30 (except on Wednesdays when I’m in the office). I’m available for boarding on weekend and can house sit during the day and walk your pet at lunch or pop over after work. I’m pretty flexible :) I’m used to caring for cats and dogs and can adjust to any provisions needed. I am confident to put cats/dogs in boxes/crates if they need to go to vet for example.
About: Having grown up with my own dogs in my family home, I have developed a deep love for these companions. I've always cherished the time spent playing and walking with them, understanding the joy and responsibility they bring. I have had a range of dogs growing up, of various breeds and sizes and this included taking care of both puppies as well as more senior dogs. This passion led me to volunteer at the local SPCA, where I happily dedicated my time to walking, cleaning, and playing with the dogs, hoping to make their stay a little brighter while they waited for their forever homes. It has been incredibly rewarding to be able to extend my love and care to these animals in need. I am currently working full-time but occasionally work from home so I will have plenty of time to take care of, play with and walk dogs. I am also occasionally available on the weekends. In my home, equipped with a small fenced garden, your furry friend will receive the utmost care and attention. From regular walks and playtime in the garden to cozy naps indoors, your pet's well-being and happiness will be my top priority. I'll ensure they have access to fresh water, their meals, and a comfortable environment tailored to their needs. Whether it's administering medication, adhering to specific dietary requirements, or simply showering them with love and affection, I'll provide the best care possible.

About: Me and my partner Ben have always had dogs 🐶 I grew up with a beautiful Maltese boy named Lucky, and then a Shih-Tzu/Pomeranian mix named Oreo. Ben has still three beautiful dogs in his family home in Ireland. Now we have our very own pup, a Shih-Tzu/Yorkie mix named Misha, and she’s our baby ❤️ I have experience with all types of dogs, and Misha’s best friends were a big Shepard mix and a Goldendoodle, so we love dogs of all sizes 🐶 My partner can work from home whenever, so we are flexible to fit our schedule around your pup! They can expect a lot of cuddles, nice walks, and adventures tailored to their interests! Our pup is very affectionate, sleeps with us in the bed, and enjoys a lot of cuddles daily! We live in a very safe pet friendly flat, and are such homebodies so we’d be excited to host your dog ❤️
“Alex, Jade and their dog River were brilliant with our bouncy Aussie Shepherd.

They have lots of experience with dogs and we felt confident that they’d handle anything while we were away. Would highly recommend and will definitely book again ☺️”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better couple to take care of our dog—they were absolutely the best! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving hands. They treated him like their own dog, Morris, was such a sweetheart and got along great with ours. We received regular updates and photos, and it was clear our dog was happy, safe, and having a wonderful time. It honestly felt like a little vacation for him. We’re super happy with the whole experience and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again. Highly, highly recommend!!!!💗💗”

“Wing took great care of our senior French bulldog during the 5 days we were away. Our dog is a little delicate and has joints problem, but Wing was very careful with her leg and I think my dog had a great time with Bailey that now she goes up to every retriever in the park to say hello. Wing was flexible with the drop off and pickup time and she followed exactly our instruction for the dog! We can’t be more thankful to her 🙏🙏”
“Annmaree is absolutely fantastic! She took such great care my dog, Gryffin - this was his first time being my left with a sitter ever, and we only recently moved to the UK from the US, but Annmaree made the week so comfortable and seamless. I loved all of the pictures she sent each day, Gryffin clearly made himself right at home (:”
