About: We are a family of dog and pet lovers and have had our own dogs for many years. We have Snoopy (beagle) at home and have reared him since he was 8wks old. He loves lounging at home with his family and meeting other dogs on his tours of the local area / community. We are home based (self employed) and have an enclosed garden for Snoopy to show your pooch around. Husband and wife both work from home so give lots of attention to our four legged companions. Regular walkies plus enclosed garden at any other playtime… The dogs are never left on their own as we both work from home. Snoopy, our beagle is well socialised and will welcome other dogs into our home. We have an enclosed garden that the dogs have full access to.

“Archie and I cannot thank Ineta and her family enough for all the loving care of Archie this week while I had to go deal with an emergency up North. Ineta was very kind to step up last minute to care for Archie and send lovely updates, photos and videos. Archie had a wonderful time, was loved and looked after very well. He and Ineta's sons had the best time playing as well. Ineta is also very fit and healthy and took Archie on very nice walks and to his appointments this week. Highly recommended, caring and responsible sitter.”

“Gabriela was incredibly responsive right from my very first message. We left our 10-year-old dachshund with her for a week, and she kept us updated daily with photos and videos where our dog looked completely happy and calm. Our dachshund is normally very attached to me and hesitates to leave the house with others, but Gabriela managed to build trust with her incredibly quickly. She also seamlessly followed her daily routine, bedtime schedule, and vitamin regimen. We are so pleased with the care she provided and will definitely contact her again the next time we go away!”
“Diana and her family were so lovely and kind with my dog, Holly! I was looking for a caring person who owned a large dog and would be able to handle my young, energetic and sometimes "chatty" Goldendoodle, but also a family that Holly would be comfortable with. I feel so lucky to have found the perfect family! Diana sent me photos and videos of Holly and my dog absolutely loved her and Akira, their beautiful, sweet dog. I will absolutely book with Diana again!”
“Ruthie was just wonderful with our cockapoo! He stayed overnight with her and was so well looked after. Ruthie met us beforehand and the communication was amazing throughout the stay. I would not hesitate to recommend her and will definitely book Ruthie again to look after our boy!”
“Highly recommend Elizabeth as a pet sitter! Taking care of an older dog requires extra care, and Elizabeth was exceptionally patient. The communication was excellent, she is always positive and proactive. My dog was very happy under Elizabeth’s care, thank you!”
“We’ve left our dog with Jeanette before and each experience has been consistently excellent. they’ve been reliable, communicative, and clearly passionate about caring for animals. It’s always reassuring to know our dog is in safe, capable hands. Thanks”
About: Dog lover with experience looking after dogs of all ages and sizes. I love going for regular walks around Richmond and would enjoy this even more so with additional company.

I have a secure and dog friendly home where I can easily take them outside supervised as needed/at their request! I also have enough space inside where I can play with balls and toys to keep them stimulated.

“I have an anxious Cosmo, who had been unwell with stress since I needed to start going to the office twice a week. Gail was his company yesterday, giving him plenty of rubs & playing. I came home to a happy & relaxed boy. Gail will now be sitting regularly, twice weekly. I'm glad my boy has her! And also all the good cat health advice she has.”
“Stephanie is very kind and an amasing pet caregiver! She took care of Murphie, my cat, as like was her own pet. Murphie was comfortable with her all the time and loved to spend the days with her. This was obvious for the pictures and updates she sent me! So while I was away, I could be completely relax that Murphie was in good hands. Besides this, she was very respectful and organised with all the house, that I could find even better than I left. I couldn't recommed her less!!!”

About: I had the most wonderful older cat, Harvey, who had many health requirements for a year and a half to give him the best end to his life. He required multiple different medications, help grooming and careful handling to avoid causing pain, so I'm very comfortable in dealing with cats who may have additional needs. He could also be a little spicy at times, so happy handling the feisty ones.
“We have only recently moved house so our cat Mylo might have been nervous about us going away, but he was very happy with Serena and looked relaxed in all the photo updates. Communication was good so we would definitely book Serena again!”
“Frangelica was wonderful with my cats. She always arrived on time and often early, which my cats were very happy about 😸 She provided adorable pictures and daily updates.”
“Bizhen was the perfect sitter, she was prompt with her check ins and left thorough reports on how Sooty was doing, along with lots of photos. I’d highly recommend her to anyone and I’d happily hire her again!”
“I highly recommend Karen. I think she must be a cat whisperer. Karen looked after my very shy long haired cat who she quickly became friends with. I loved the daily updates that Karen sent and I came home to one very happy relaxed well looked after cat.”
About: Cats have always been a big part of our lives, and together we have over 20 years of experience caring for cats of all ages, from curious kittens to senior cats. We know every cat has their own personality, so we take the time to earn their trust and follow their routine to help them feel relaxed and secure. Whether it's feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime, cuddles or medication, we'll care for your cat as if they were our own. You'll also receive regular photo and video updates for complete peace of mind. This summer, we also volunteered for two weeks at a cat sanctuary in Athens, helping care for more than 60 rescue cats. Our daily responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, socialising cats of all temperaments, monitoring their health and helping new or nervous cats build confidence around people. The experience strengthened our understanding of feline behaviour and reinforced how important patience, routine and gentle handling are in helping cats feel secure.
About: I’ve grown up with all breeds of dog, rescue and purchased of of all ages and temperaments. I’m always the first to offer to dog sit for my family and friends. Living in London I’m missing this a lot. I work from home 3 days a week (mon-fri). This gives me flexibility to pop out for a lunch time walk with your four legged friend or dog sit in the comfort and familiarity of their home. I am also available most weekends. I treat dogs the way they deserve to be treated, with respect, love and discipline. I see the importance of communicating with the owner to learn of the pets individual needs. When out walking I remain vigilant at all times, with the dogs safety being my priority. I can pre-plan walking routes that are most appropriate for your dog. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets lots of love, attention, and care throughout the day. I enjoy building my routine around their needs and am available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-ins on both weekdays and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I carefully follow your routines and instructions, keep the space tidy, ensure doors and gates are secure, and give your pet lots of love, attention, and supervision while you’re away.

“Brendan takes such good care of my dog Philly! I know he’s in the safest hands. I always get loads of updates of him giving him cuddles and treats, and can tell Brendan just genuinely enjoying spending time with him. He puts up with all Philly’s little quirks and it is great to pick up a very happy little dog at the end!”

“Misty is a 4-month-old Sheltie and this was her first time with a sitter, so I was quite nervous! But she had a wonderful time with Bizhen and came home happy, calm and clearly well looked after. Bizhen took her for a lovely walk and even sent photos of her poops (really appreciated!). We’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Super happy dog and owner! Excellent service! Stephane is very skilled in dealing with dogs. My puddle loved him instantly! He was happy to come and pick her up from the bus stop as I live a bit far away and had to take the bus there. But he made it all easy! Stephane took Yuki on long walks and kept her busy unless she wanted to have a nap. Excellent communication all along! Many thanks! I highly recommend Stephane and I will definitely book him again!”

About: If you’re looking for a reliable, caring dog walker who can provide regular weekday walks, I’d love to help. I’ve always loved dogs and enjoy nothing more than being outdoors with them. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves long walks or prefers a gentler pace with plenty of sniffing stops, I’ll make sure every walk is suited to their individual needs. I understand that many owners have busy work schedules, so being dependable, punctual and consistent is really important to me. You can count on me to arrive on time, follow your dog’s usual routine and treat them with the same care and affection that I give my own dog. I’m patient, trustworthy and organised, and I know every dog is different. I’ll take the time to get to know your dog’s personality, favourite walking routes and any specific requirements they may have. After each walk, I’ll send you an update and photos so you can see how much fun they’ve had. Building long-term relationships with both dogs and their owners is something I really value, and I’d love to become someone your dog looks forward to seeing each week. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend 😊 I currently work part time mostly from home so I have plenty of time to take care of your dog. I walk dogs daily and I have a car for further afield walks and to drop and collect your dog if required. We are a family of 5 with 3 older children that love bring around dogs. I have a fenced in garden and I have a dog myself. I have plenty of space to look after 3 dogs ( including my own) and it’s important to me as it is for you that the dogs are all happy being around each other.
About: I have a family dog, Daisy who now lives with my parents retired out in Spain. This leaves perfect dog friendly house available to help! I work part time from home, the hours vary. Therefore I have availability most days to be flexible to suit to you and your pets needs. I have dog friendly house with garden space & area for toilet. Toys available at disposal so your pet will never be bored! As of the current hot weather, I have floorboards with wee gaps for draft which keeps room cool in case your pet needs to cool down.
About: I’ve always believed that dogs aren’t just pets — they’re family. When you leave your dog with me, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being cared for with patience, kindness and lots of love. I take the time to get to know each dog’s little personality — whether they’re playful and full of energy, happiest curled up beside you, a little shy at first, or simply love being spoiled with attention. I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, from meals and walks to regular toilet breaks, playtime and plenty of cuddles. I believe keeping their routine familiar helps them settle and feel at ease. I’m also happy to give extra patience and reassurance to puppies, older dogs or dogs who need a little more time to feel comfortable in a new environment. I’ll never rush them — I let them settle in at their own pace. What I really want to offer is more than just dog sitting. I want your dog to feel like they’ve come to stay with someone who genuinely enjoys having them around. And while you're busy having your own little holiday, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you don’t miss them too much! I work from home, which means your dog will have plenty of company, attention and care throughout the day. I’m able to fit pet care naturally into my daily routine, with regular toilet breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles and plenty of interaction. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can give them the attention they need while still keeping to their normal routine. Because I’m home during the day, I can also be flexible around individual needs — whether your dog loves regular play and walks, prefers a quiet afternoon nap, or simply wants someone nearby. I have a secure, fully fenced garden where dogs can enjoy some fresh air and outdoor time safely. The home is a calm, clean and welcoming environment where they can relax, feel secure and receive plenty of love and attention. Most importantly, I treat every dog with the same care and kindness I would give my own dog — with patience, affection and plenty of cuddles.
“Thank you, Vera, and your family for looking after Biscuit so well. She looked happy and well cared for when I collected her. It’s such a relief to know that she was in good hands while we were away.”

Every pet has their own personality, and I really enjoy getting to know what makes each one happy and comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands. I regularly work from home (M-F, 9-5) and am able to structure my days and meetings around my animal caring responsibilities, we can discuss this further in person! When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible so they feel safe, settled and comfortable. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, body language and individual needs, including when they want affection, playtime or a little space. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, medication and home security. I always make sure windows, doors, and gates are kept secure - I treat every owner’s home with care and respect. (I will also water plants if requested). I’ll provide regular updates with photos and videos, so you know your pet is happy, safe and well cared for while you’re away!
“Mac was very happy with his first ever dog walk with a pet sitter while we were away. Anya came to meet Mac in advance and is clearly very experienced with pet care making sure she knew all Mac’s quirks and what was needed for the walk. She was very easy to communicate with giving us comfort Mac was in safe hands. We will certainly be booking Anya again. 😊”

“Shahad has taken such great care of Babbie during her walks. She asks thoughtful questions, shows genuine care and attention, and always sends me photos from the walks, which I really appreciate. I would definitely recommend her 😊”
About: We always had animals around our house growing up: dogs small and large, cats, birds, bunnies. I love all animals and I’ve always gravitated towards dogs and their energy. I feel very confident around dogs and am happy to follow detailed owner rules or to wing it together with your dog! My job is extremely flexible. I work from home and make my own hours. A typical day would be gym, work from home and walking in Richmond Park at night. No pets at our home. Myself and my flat mate live in a two bedroom flat with a moderately spacious living area. We are both very caring and live extremely close to Richmond Park for amazing dog walks.
“Nick has walked Miller once (so far) and he’s been fantastic. He read all the information on our profile before coming, was available for a meet and greet where he listened patiently to all our notes and worries, and then took Miller for a great walk. Our dog can be tricky but Nick was not phased by it in the slightest and clearly handled everything brilliantly. Would definitely book again (and will, if he’ll have us!)”
About: I started looking after furry friends to help my anxiety and I’m now completely in love with dogs of any shape and size. I’ve met a range of dogs that live near to me in Richmond Hill that I walk and/or look after in my home regularly. I love creating a bond with the dog I'm spending time with and making them feel comfortable with me I typically work at home 3 days a week and have a pretty relaxed schedule so am able to take dogs out when they need. I love an early morning walk but can also take out at lunchtime or after 5.30 in the summer. I’m also usually around at the weekend for walks or sitting which I love as it means I can give my full attention to the dog. I live in a spacious flat with lots of room for playing and any toys or beds they bring with them. I’m gentle and loving with the dogs I look after and give lots of cuddles, but will always take into account any behaviours or boundaries your dog has. When walking dogs I’m very focused on the dog and my surroundings especially when off lead.
“Bizhen was fantastic and did a great job walking my dog Tino. Great communication and listed to all instructions, and great distance on the walk too. My dog really liked her. I would highly recommend to anyone ! :)”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and chickens, I love animals! My family have had 5+ different sizes, ages, and breeds of dog and I’ve helped look after each one. I’ve just graduated university so have plenty of time to walk dogs! I currently make my own timetable so my availability is extremely flexible. As a dog walker I prioritize the dogs experience and your boundaries! I will never approach another dog or person without asking, and will always let them stop to sniff around.

Everything went smoothly, Coffee clearly had a great time, and I’ll definitely book with Xinyu again the next time I’m away. Highly recommend!”

About: My wife and I love animals and have had our current dog Remi now for 5 years. I have gone through a lot of training with Remi including gun dog training, so I am competent in reinforcing commands and behaviour. I like to make sure dogs are engaged on in my care, in whatever way is best suited to the dog. Some dogs really engage with the ball, others enjoy a some level of training or some enjoy a gentle stroll with a bit of inquisitive sniffing about. There are some great walking spots across this area and I am very happy to help take your lovely dog out for their walk. We have a secure fenced garden where your dog can enjoy some outdoor time when boarding or doggy day care, and they will enjoy a loving home while they are here. I am currently doing freelance work at home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am generally available for dog walks, drop in visits, boarding and doggy day care on weekdays. I will always walk in a park in the local area, and I will make sure we talk about anything specific your dog needs on their walk (on/off lead, commands, treats, walk routine, behaviour around other dogs/people etc) so we are both comfortable with everything. If you are ok with it my dog Remi will join us on the walk, but no problem if you want your dog to have a solo walk.
“Our dog Monty had the best weekend with Sam - lots of walks, cuddles and updates! He was so relaxed as soon as he got to Sam’s place and clearly had the best time! Thanks Sam so much for taking such good care of Monty and for all the photos and videos keeping us updated!”
