“Evelyn was great. She stayed overnight in our house looking after our dogs and she instantly put us at ease when she arrived. She was very relaxed with the dogs and they warmed to her immediately. She kept us updated throughout with pictures and was very flexible with her timings. We would definitely use her again.”
“Karack and Justine were a god send. I was going to South Africa for 10 days and a week before, his sitters cancelled due to a family emergency. Not only were they enthusiastic about looking after Seamus for a relatively long time and at short notice, they were also very attentive when it came to his routine. I also got daily updates, giving me peace of mind. As for Seamus, he loved staying with them, getting plenty of walks and cuddle time. I would definitely book them again and cannot reccommend them more”

About: Whilst fairly new to the dog sitting profession, I have fantastic experience raising our family dog Jasper from a puppy. He grew into an adorable large labradoodle, Jasper lived to 14years and I helped train him to behave fantastically with young children, a very calm and gentle demeanour. My first dog sitting experience was very recently after I lost my full time job. A good friend asked if I could look after their family dog in my flat whilst they are away on holiday for a week. My only other commitments in the week is the occasional saxophone gig, otherwise I am readily available to care walk and look after your canine family members. I live in a ground floor flat in Carshalton, very short walking distance from multiple parks, wilderness island (active shallow stream, clean spring water from wandle). I am improving my fitness and have been taking dogs on runs recently on lead. There is vinyl flooring in most of the property, but I put towels and rugs down to make walking easier for older / larger dogs. A pub near me even does doggy ice cream, so your dog can expect at treat once or twice during a holiday sit. I don’t have a driving licence so locality is important to consider and or drop off / pick up from owner will likely be required. I am fine to sit dogs of all sizes but a very large dog might struggle in a small flat. Please don’t hesitate to contact me (including call!) for more information and to get to know me better :). I am currently unemployed, not earning PAYE. I am a musician, meaning Friday and Saturdays nights / evenings are often busy. Some other music commitments may impact my schedule but am not away from flat for more than 3 hours. My flat is ground floor and secure. The block has cctv, and on a safe private road. The flat is surrounded by grass and trees of the shared garden. I have mats and rugs to place on my vinyl flooring and safe place for dog to eat, drink in the kitchen. I don’t enforce rules, if dog wants to lie in bed or on sofa, that’s no problem. Been known to visit the local pub which offers doggy ice cream - your dog can expect a summer treat when staying with me!
“Thanks to Jack for looking after Veera so well yet again.

About: Hi, I'm Kaitlyn! I'm 27 years old and live in a spacious home with a secure garden. I don't have any children or other pets, so your dog will have plenty of peace, attention, and space to relax. There's also a large park nearby, perfect for fun walks and exercise.

I enjoy taking dogs on walks, spending quality time with them, and giving them lots of love, attention, and cuddles while they're in my care. I'll treat your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel comfortable and at home.

About: I’ve been passionate about pets for as long as I can remember—growing up with dogs and other animals has given me a lifetime of experience in understanding and caring for them. Since my university days, I’ve been the go-to person for family and friends whenever they’ve gone on holiday, providing attentive and loving care for their dogs. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’m experienced in handling dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra care and attention. I also prioritize maintaining your dog’s routine, whether that’s daily walks, feeding schedules, or cuddle time, to keep them feeling at ease. If you’re looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and experienced to care for your furry family member, I’d be thrilled to help! I currently work from home 4 days a week with a very flexible schedule, allowing me plenty of time to care for your dog, play, and cuddle throughout the day. I’m also happy to dog sit overnight, and your dog is more than welcome to sleep in the bed! live in a flat with direct access to a secure, private, and fenced garden, offering a safe and enjoyable space for your pet to explore and relax. Inside, your pet is welcome to roam freely and make themselves at home—no furniture or bed is off-limits. If preferred, I can also set up a cozy, designated spot with their special bed or blanket to ensure maximum comfort and familiarity.
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the moment we met Sophie and her partner, it was clear how much they genuinely love and understand dogs, and Alfie took to them straight away! They kept us updated throughout, were always quick to respond to messages, and were incredibly flexible when it came to arrangements. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Alfie was in such caring and capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely lovely dog sitters.”

About: I absolutely adore all dogs and would love the chance to spoil your four-legged fur baby! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have experience with all sizes, breeds and temperaments. My family pets were Golden Retrievers and my own dog Freddie, was a charismatic cool long-haired chihuahua, who I had for 14years but sadly passed away last October. I don’t officially own any other pets but I have adopted my boyfriend’s dog Myla, a friendly chocolate lab, who I thankfully get to spoil on a regular basis. I’m currently not working which means I am available to walk your doggo, or have them for the day as needed. I live next to multiple commons so they have lots of spaces to run around in. Any questions feel free to reach out :) I’d love to hear from you! Currently not working so I’m at home a lot mid week. My daily schedule is also flexible so I can cater for your pets needs as required. No other pets live here but I do sometimes look after my boyfriend’s dog Myla (a friendly chocolate lab) however if your dog prefers to be an ‘only child’, then just let me know and I can accommodate :) I don’t have a garden but I live next to Wandsworth common, with access to Wimbledon, Tooting and Clapham commons too (I have a car!). Your pet will get regular loo breaks and exercise!

“Charlotte and Cort looked after Pippa recently and I think she remembered what a great time she had as when I dropped her off she couldn’t wait to get through the door. It was good to know she was happy to be back as I could relax while I was out. Charlotte kept me regularly updated on what Pippa was doing and sending me photos”
“Robyne was brilliant with Skye, we met before Skye’s stay with her and it was great dropping her off having already spent some time together. Robyne sent regular updates through the day and Skye has come home very happy! Thank you!”
“Monty loved every second he spent with Sophia (he didn’t even want to come back home)! We also greatly appreciated the constant communication and pictures of our pup. We highly recommend Sophia as a day carer!”

Happy to go on multiple walks per day, or even a run if your dog enjoys that! Love taking dogs on adventures like Richmond Park or to the local coffee shop for a treat. Experience training puppies. Active and fit individual. Experience looking after several dogs at one time. I work from home full time and my job is flexible. Lots of time to look after friendly doggos. Happy to work around you and your dog’s needs. Your dog will have free range in my safe apartment. No garden area but close to Wimbledon common for a walk. Space for your dog’s bed if required.

About: I have been a proud cat owner for six years and currently have two indoor cats of my own. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience understanding different personalities, routines, and needs of cats. I have also cared for several cats belonging to friends and neighbours through daily home visits. I am happy to provide medication if needed, as well as feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter trays, playing, and giving plenty of attention and companionship. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust. I treat every cat as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. 🐾 Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to offer a wide range of availability, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I can easily adapt to your cat’s routine and provide reliable, consistent care whenever needed. I make sure to follow each cat’s usual routine and all instructions provided by the owner. I prioritise safety by checking that doors and windows are secure, keeping the environment clean and tidy, and making sure cats have fresh water, food, and a clean litter tray. I also pay close attention to their behaviour and wellbeing and provide regular updates and photos, so owners can have complete peace of mind while they are away.
“We hadn’t used Rover before so were a little nervous but Guido went over and above putting our minds at ease including joining a M&G beforehand. We were updated with photos throughout and returned home to a happy dog. 10/10 recommend and will book again.”
About: I have lots of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments, so I’m confident handling everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a gentler pace. I’m very active and love being outdoors, so long walks and plenty of exercise are something I genuinely enjoy — even better with a dog by my side. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a teacher, my schedule gives me a great balance for pet care. During school holidays and weekends, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and company. I’m naturally very active and love being outdoors, so caring for dogs fits perfectly into my daily routine. I have a fenced garden and a very secure spacious house for the dog to feel at home in. The area is very quiet and dog friendly.
“Mackenzie was fabulous!! Thanks so much for taking such great care of my Ollie and making sure to follow all our instructions! Really appreciated all the pictures and videos too, felt so reassured that Ollie was in safe, caring hands!”
About: Experienced dog & cat sitter in Morden, next to Morden Hall Park 🌳 🏠 I live in a house with my partner with a fenced in, secure garden. Having grown up with many animals, I miss their company and adore having the chance to look after them and treat them as my own! Whilst we’re not quite ready to take on a dog of our own, a house is not a home without the love from an animal ❤️ I only ever take one dog at a time to ensure they have our full and undivided attention. I’ve established and maintained relationships with numerous pet owners in my local area, with ongoing relationships for more than 3 years. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, from puppies to seniors, from dachshunds to huskys. I WFH most of the week so have lots of time to spend giving love to a four legged friend. I’m also fortunate that my office is dog-friendly, so longer term boarders love coming with me to central London and get showered with attention and love from my colleagues! 🐶 I currently work from home most of the week. As a home body, I love spending time in my own space and love to share that with an animal! I like to keep fit with walks in Morden Hall Park which is a five minute walk away, so having a dog to join me is a joy. I treat animals as if they are my own, with endless care, cuddles and attention. Growing up with lots of pets I miss them having moved to London. There is no greater joy than hanging out with cats and dogs so everytime I do I cherish it!
“Dalo has been so helpful and really has taken the time to provide me and my dog an excellent service. He’s taken very good care of Papi and is super responsive, diligent, and offers updates for every walk he goes on. Thanks, Dalo!”
“.Personable .Friendly .Punctual .Flexible Today was my dog’s 3rd walk with Ka Wang W. She was crying at the door waiting for him. I feel confident with him walking my dog. I feel reassured that she is in safe hands. I have no hesitation recommending Ka Wang - Struck a golden dog walker Thank you 🤩”
About: Hi! I’m Mary 🐾 I’m a London-based dog lover who’d absolutely love to help take care of your four-legged friend! I currently work from home 2 days a week, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your dog lots of attention, company and cuddles throughout the day. I’ve grown up with Black Labradors, so having a dog has always been a big part of my life. Since moving to London, I’ve really missed having a dog of my own, which is why I love having the opportunity to spend time with and look after other people’s pups! While living in London, I’ve regularly looked after my neighbours’ dogs, including a Cockapoo and a Dachshund. This has given me experience caring for different personalities, routines and energy levels, from walks and playtime to feeding and simply keeping them company. I’m caring, reliable and active, and I’ll always make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy and well looked after. I’m also very happy to follow their normal routine and any specific instructions you have. I know how daunting it can feel leaving your dog with someone new, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while they’re in my care. Your pup will get lots of love, attention and, of course, plenty of cuddles! 🐶❤️ I’d love to meet you and your dog, so please feel free to get in touch! I’m in the office 3 flexible days a week (Tuesdays are mandatory office days). Otherwise I work from home and have weekends free. I go on lots of long walks so adding a dog to that would be no problem. I have a garden and am close to many big parks for long walks. I have a fenced in garden attached to my basement flat. It is away from main roads and surrounded by lovely families with children and pets. Being on one floor it’s easy to move around for older and smaller dogs.
About: Hey! I'm Virginia. I'm a teacher from Australia who has been in London for 6 months now! I get a bit bored in the holidays and would like to make some extra money by hanging out with some lovely dogs (since I miss mine so much)! I've always had animals in my home. Dogs, fish, mice etc. I am a teacher, so you can trust me with being careful to ensure everything is done correctly and safely. I'm free to walk dogs any time of the day! Trying to fill my time in the school holidays! Happy to work around you and figure what works best for you :) I will be caring for the pet in your home! For walking, I'll come and collect your dog from you and take them on a route you'd like.
About: I’m a reliable, patient, and genuinely caring dog sitter who focuses on making every pet feel safe and comfortable in my care. I have also studied as a dog grooming assistant, which has given me more confidence and understanding when it comes to handling and caring for dogs. I always keep owners updated with messages and photos, so you can feel reassured that your dog is happy and well looked after. I’m super flexible and available almost every weekday and weekend—morning, afternoon, or evening! Last-minute bookings? No problem, I’m usually able to jump in with short notice. Just let me know your schedule and your pet’s routine, and I’ll make it work! In my home, I have a small fenced garden which provides a secure outdoor space for pets to safely enjoy fresh air and playtime. I make sure there are lots of soft, snuggly spots where your pet can rest and feel at home.
“Kohin and his partner have been walking my beagle Thea once a week for a number of weeks. They are always on time and communicate regularly with me as well as sending lots of photos from their walks. Their service is excellent and I am more than happy to continue Thea’s weekly walks with them :)”

Libby certainly has a way with dogs, and was so kind and calming to me also. He even seemed to miss her after returning home which says it all really!”
“Ignacio and Ludmila have been wonderful with Zaky, they looked after him for 4 days and sent updates and photos every day. Zaky really enjoyed the time with them and all the walks in the sunshine 😁 we'll be looking at booking them in the future. Highly recommended 😁”
