“Anne-lise and Mark looked after our 10 month old Tibetian Terrier while we had a break for a birthday celebration. It was a weight off our minds to have someone to look after her and our cat and tortoise. There was,good communications and photos. Would be happy to recommend them.”


“Anne was a fantastic dog sitter. She looked after our little corgi so well and stayed at our place while we were away. We came home to a happy pup and a well-looked-after house. We would absolutely recommend Anne as a pup sitter”

About: “I’m a reliable and attentive pet lover with hands-on experience caring for animals for family and friends. I previously raised and cared for my own dog from a young age, helping with basic puppy training, daily walks, feeding, and playtime. I’ve also looked after a friend’s dog for a weekend while they were away and currently care for my parents’ cats during their holidays. I focus on building trust with both pets and their owners by keeping to their routines, being patient and attentive to each pet’s personality, and providing regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away. I always treat every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. I work from home 3 out of 5 day a week. I’m available for walks and feeding during the week. Throughout the weekend I can do overnight stays, as well as walks and feeding through the weekend. For overnight stays I would need at least 7 days notice so I can plan ahead. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I make sure to follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. This includes feeding them at their normal times, taking dogs out for walks and exercise, and making sure they have plenty of playtime and attention. I also keep their living areas clean, such as refreshing water, cleaning litter trays for cats, and ensuring everything is tidy. I’m very respectful of the owner’s home and always communicate with updates and photos so they feel reassured that their pet is happy and well looked after while they’re away.
“Rosie was a fabulous sitter. She looked after our golden retriever whilst we were away overnight, and kept us fully informed with updates and photos. Wilf seemed to love his time with her, particularlyhis walks! We would highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”

“An amazing experience from beginning to end. We initially met Elliot a month before the sit for a dog walk and it was clear straight away he was excellent with dogs. I was extremely anxious about leaving them (both rescues who can be nervous) which Elliot realised and reassured me on that day and in some messages prior to the stay. He arrived on time, sent is daily videos and updates and allowed us to enjoy every second of our holiday. The dogs loved him and seemed disappointed when we got home! Also we came home to 2 happy dogs but also a house that had been cleaned with the bed linen done, which made a real difference after a long flight! Would really recommend Elliot for both his ability to look after the dogs, but also due to his excellent communication. We look forward to going away again with the reassurance of knowing such a great sitter.”


“I would thoroughly recommend Rafaelle. She was on time and always available when checking in. She took really good care of Aiko and he was a very happy and relaxed boy when I got home. We would love to continue working with Rafaelle going forward.”

“Jacqui was amazing and looked after our two dogs and home whilst we were away for a week. The dogs absolutely loved Jacqui and were sad to see her go!! Jacqui sent regular updates and took them on lovely walks. It meant we could really enjoy our trip knowing the that they were so well looked after at home! We also came back to a lovely tidy house. Huge thank you to Jacqui, just need to book in the next trip so we can have you back! X”

“Katie was wonderful! My young beagle boy Beau absolutely loved her company, he was so comfortable and chilled with her. She gave him plenty of stimulation with play and a long walk plus cuddles making him feel safe and happy. We had one super chilled and relaxed pup. Katie kept the house super tidy and she was such a pleasure to have. I will be booking Katie again most definitely:)”

“Alycia was so quick to respond and get a meet and greet in. When looking after Dave, she was great and took our advice in giving him space until he felt settled and comfortable, and kept us uptodate on how she was getting on throughout the day, and we came home to a very happy dog. Would definitely recommend and book again!”

“Fay has done 2 sits for us in 3 days on Thurs 28th & Sat 30th August. She has arrived on time, has been willing to sit our Cavapoochon Oscar till late & is very easy-going. Will definitely use Fay again”

“Erin was absolutely fantastic and I felt really reassured knowing Juni was having a great day with her whilst we were both in the office. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day and you can tell she really loves dogs. Thank you so much, we will definitely be in touch again!”


About: I’m currently studying Animal Management & Behaviour Level 3 at college and have had dogs all my life. I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and temperaments, including administering medication and applying creams or skin treatments when needed. I also completed half a year of dog grooming and hold a canine First Aid qualification. I’m passionate about animals and always make sure pets feel safe, loved and well cared for while in my care. I’m currently studying at college, so pet care fits well into my daily routine. I have plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime and attention. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and cared for in both my home and the owner’s home. I follow routines carefully, provide attention, exercise, clean environments and ensure pets are supervised and secure at all times.
“Theo is a wonderful dog sitter both our dogs love him. It was the first time we had used a house sitter and dog sitter service so we were quite apprehensive Theo sent us some great videos while we were away of the dogs to reassure us. We would definitely use Theo on our next trip”

Estheffany Spent time with Milo (our 3 year old beagle/cockerpoo cross) in our home for the second time, everything went so smoothly. The dog was happy, the house was tidy, and great updates shared throughout her stay. We'll definitely be in touch for a third booking!

Charlotte has been amazing. She has spent a night with our dogs and has kept us updated with pictures which has helped us having good time. The dogs have loved spending time with her (I can definitely say that as one of our dogs is very shay with new people). We will definitely reach her out in the future.

Samantha was great with Dash and remained professional throughout a very difficult situation. During the stay, Dash became distressed after getting a stick lodged in his mouth. While Samantha was trying to help remove it, Dash bit her hand/finger. Because of the incident, we mutually decided not to continue the remainder of the stay. Throughout the entire process, Samantha’s communication was excellent. She kept us updated on everything and remained incredibly kind, patient, and understanding despite the circumstances. We really appreciated her honesty and the grace with which she handled everything. We still highly recommend her as a sitter.

Anna was wonderful! Very communicative, asked lots of questions, was very respectful! She clearly loved our big old labradors. Walked them, and cleaned up after them, gave them lots of love. Im pretty sure they like her more than us! We will be booking her again.

Clare was such a lovely sitter! Wilf, our golden retriever, took her to her straight away and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent photos and gave us regular updates whilst we away and Wilf looked relaxed and happy. ☺️ We would 100% recommend Clare to others and Wilf is already looking forward to seeing her again very soon!

Fiona was wonderful! Really quick to respond and help us out with a couple of last minute dog sitting requests. Fiona was super calm and confident with our lively pup Leila, which made her very relaxed. She even fell asleep on her lap. I came home to a happy dog and was given regular updates and photos throughout the day. Will definitely be rebooking again!

Charlotte is a really great sitter. She immediately bonded with our golden retriever Wilf and we fely completely comfortable leaving her to care for him whilst away for two nights. She gave us regular updates and sent photos too! We came back to a clean house and a happy dog. We have already booked her to look after Wilf for our next holiday! ☺️

Really lovely to meet Annabel and Oli. They were super flexible as our request was last minute. Quickly understood what our pup needed and then looked after and cared for him overnight. They even took him for a lovely long morning walk 🙏 Wouldn’t hesitate to book them again - thanks guys! Much appreciated.
