She really cares for each animal and its welfare and takes great pleasure in spending time in their company. She is trustworthy, honest and reliable. I would trust her with any of my pets at any time.”
8. Remigius R.
“I’m so happy with Matas and Remi walking Vincent. This was the first time we handed over our 40kg rescue dog to a dog walker. Vincent felt at ease, and Matas handled his hour-long walks with great competence.”
9. Madeleine C.
About: Comfortable with all breeds, over the years I've owned German Shepards, Beagles, a Staffy & Spaniel/Visla mix. Will provide and safe and fun space for your pets! I currently work hybrid, 3 days in the office and two from home. These days are flexible. Typically I am home Thursday and Friday. I go for frequent walks and would be able to take and friends along with me! I have a split level maisonette, with a fenced garden. I back right onto a park and I'm close by to both London fields & Victoria park for longer dog walks!
10. Juliette G.
“Daisy loves her walks with Juliette! Juliette keeps us updated on how Daisy is getting on, sends pictures from walks and lets us know if anything important happens whilst they are out. She is very reliable and we know Daisy is safe and happy out on her walks!”
11. Susie G.
“Susie loves animals and she currently has a pet cat and numerous fish herself. I know she has previously had dogs and other cats. She is very reliable and a very friendly person and would look after a dog as if it’s her own.”
12. Francesca F.
“Francesca took care Pepe when I had to fly abroad for a week. I would recommend her services as a dog sitter. I have used Francesca’s services twice this year and never been had any disappointments :). Thank you!”
13. Anna-Louise F.
“Annie is a dog-lover who had a beautiful Bichon Frise called Alfie from a puppy until he sadly passed away at 13 years old. Annie loved Alfie from the day she gave him a home until the day he passed. She is a loving, attentive and caring dog owner who always gave Alfie the physical contact and attention he deserved and was always kind to him (even in his very mischievous early years!). I had the pleasure to spend lots of time with Annie’s dog who loved human attention, was always well behaved around other dogs and was never frightened or timid of anything or anyone. I believe that reflects Annie’s approach to raising and looking after pets which she does with such enthusiasm and affection. She is wonderful with dogs and I would happily leave any future pets that I adopt under her care knowing they will be safe, happy and well looked-after.”
14. Vanessa L.
“Vanessa is the best pet sitter and walker I've ever had. My 8 year old dog, Buddy, and my 10 year old cat Fluffy love her. Vanessa is very reliable, responsible, organised and great with pets. I can't recommend her highly enough.”
15. Madeleine H.
“Maddy was my go to pet sitter when she was in New Zealand. She’s an animal lover who took great care of our 2 dogs, cat, rabbit and chickens, including giving medication to our elderly dog. The house was always left perfectly tidy and she took care of the spa and pool. We will miss her services and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a house sitter”
16. Maya S.
“My daughter grew up with a cat and always took really good care of her. It was clear that she instinctively knew how to take care of animals even when she was younger. It was really admirable to see how well she took care of her cat and how well they got along.”
17. Bea P.
“Bea has been looking for my little dog for a while...She is so good with him..She keeps you update all the time and my dog really likes to go to the park with she...I really recommend Bea”
18. Gregory M.
“Gregory has been looking after my chihuhua dog for over a year now. My dog Precious absolutely adores him. (she doesnt like many people). He makes her feel safe and they both have so much fun together. Gregory has always been on time and never cancelled in all the time he has looked after my dog. He has also house sitted when I've gone on holiday and also looked after my cats too. Gregory has a natural way with animals. I would highly recommend him. He always sends me videos/photos and updates of their walks/playing/hugging together.”
19. Lydia D.
“Lydia has been looking after my Dachshund (Tilly) for a year now. As a covid pup, she was quite attached to me and very nervous of other people. I work long hours, and having Lydia look after her and take her to public places has made her a lot more relaxed around new people (and other dogs!). I feel very comfortable leaving my baby in her care - and highly reccomend!”
20. Ellie M.
“Ellie is an exceptionally kind and considerate person and has a natural affinity with animals. From a young age she was very responsible looking after the family dog (a very lively working cocker spaniel) going for long walks, clearing up after him and ensuring he was loved and taken care of. This love of animals has continued in her adult life. She cannot walk past a dog without petting the animal (with the dog owners’ permission) and making a fuss of it. But this also extends to other animals, she adores cats and rabbits too. Unfortunately, she is unable to have pets in her current flat and so would love the opportunity to look after pets for other people who need assistance, be it dog walking or pet house-sitting. Ellie is very reliable and trustworthy; she has an extremely tidy nature and would love to be able to care for someone’s cherished pet. I would have no hesitation in recommending Ellie to your organisation and I know that being able to care for someone’s pet would make Ellie enormously happy too!”
