“Beatriz has petsit Totoro and Ginger a few times now, and they love her (waiting for her by the door!). She takes great care of then with alot of play and cuddles involved. I feel at easy traveling and knowing she will drop by to see then and provide a nice report of how things are going. I strongly recommend Bea to take care of your pets.”


“Hana was wonderful with my puppy. She was attentive and made him feel safe and happy. She was so accommodating and punctual. Would not hesitate to use her again.”


About: I started looking after dogs during Covid and haven’t stopped since. I’ve helped neighbours, friends, and family with walks, feeding, and occasional overnight stays. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to older, slower dogs who just want company and a calm walk. I take a steady, relaxed approach. I follow your routine, keep things simple, and send regular updates so you know how your dog’s doing. I treat every dog like my own. I’m currently between jobs, so I’m available full-time to look after your dog. Weekdays, weekends, early mornings or evenings — I’m flexible and happy to work around your schedule. I live in a ground-floor flat with parks just around the corner, so there’s plenty of green space for walks and play. I don’t have any pets at home, so your dog will get my full attention. I’ve had animals my whole life and genuinely love being around them. I also have a car, so I’m happy to travel or take your dog out for longer trips if needed.

“Morgan was great with her drop-ins for our cat Boots whilst we were away for a week. She sent us daily videos and photos as requested. Will definitely be using Morgan again in the future.”



About: I am an experienced dog walker and owner of 15 years. I have a two year-old resident Scottie Dog who loves meeting all the dogs that come to stay and ride with us to Wimbledon and Barnes Commons every day for a minimum 75-minute walk. These walks allow the dogs to run, forage and chase squirrels without the worry of traffic. I also live opposite a park which is convenient for short walks and ball games with smaller dogs who don't want a five-mile hike. The river Thames is 300 metres from my home and so river walks between Putney and Barnes Bridges are easily accessible. I also care for elderly dogs where driving to the park and allowing a 30-minute off lead wander is more appropriate due to aging joints. I am fully insured for daycare and overnight stays and for conveying my maximum of four dogs to the commons and local parks as opppripriate. Personally, I am a fifty-five year-old single man who has spent 30 years working in marketing. Walking and looking after dogs is a whole lot more fulfilling and satifying than reading endless social media performance statistics and constructing pan-European marketing plans, trust me!

“Isabella and Taylor are wonderful pet sitters. They took excellent care of my cat Moana and kept me regularly updated. Moana loved them!”


“We are so happy to have found Diana to look after our corgi, Gem. Diana was punctual, sent us lots of updates, photos and videos. We will definitely use Diana again for all our future drop ins.”


“Needed a cat sitter last minute and Natalie was a perfect choice! She was great with her updates and did everything that we asked! Lovely all round. Thank you again! We will be sure to be in touch if we ever need a cat sitter again :)”


About: Hi there! I’m Jen, your go-to pet sitter based in West London. Whether it’s strolls through the park, cosy cuddles on the couch, or just a bit of extra TLC while you’re away, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. As a lifelong animal lover, cat person by nature with a big soft spot for pups of all shapes and sizes, I treat every pet like part of the family. I work from home full-time and recently realised there’s a small-to-medium pet-shaped gap in my life. I live in a ground-floor flat with a spacious step-out terrace (perfect for fresh air and quick outdoor breaks) and I’m lucky to be surrounded by the lovely parks and quiet streets of Kensington and Fulham, ideal for relaxed walks and riverside roaming. Playful pups or sassy kitties, I adore animals of all kinds and will make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need while you’re away. I also love weekend hikes and long walking trails in and around London, so if your doggo (and/or abnormally adventurous cat) enjoys a proper outdoor outing, they'd definitely be invited along. I work full-time from home with plenty of flexibility, so your pet will get lots of attention throughout the day, whether it’s regular walks or just hanging out by my side while I work. For overnight stays, your pet will be comfy, cosy and made to feel completely at home. My ground floor flat has a large step-out terrace and an open plan home for roaming. I have plenty of space for small to medium pups and also ideal for cats. There are no escape routes and there’s plenty of light and fresh air. I also love cuddles on the couch if your pet cuddles back.

“Very personable and sent me lovely photos/updates of Picchu while I was away. I will definitely be using Ellie for future drop ins for Picch.”


About: I have had pets my whole childhood from dogs, rabbits, birds to fish! I’m a lifelong animal lover. I love looking after pets for short/long term stays (esp. dogs). From walks to playtime snuggles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have a good track record for caring for others’ dogs ranging from a day to a week. I take pride in creating a safe and nurturing environment for animals. I’m well equipped to give them all the care they need. I work from home most weekdays and I’m in London almost every weekend. I’m happy to look after pets in the week and if I’m home on the weekend as well. I work from home and I’m able to provide constant care and attention throughout the day. I don’t have a garden but I love taking dogs for regular walks and trips to the nearby parks. I don’t mind having cats/dogs on my couch or bed, I enjoy the cuddles while watching TV or when having a nap on the couch. I will not leave them alone for extended periods of time as they are my priority when looking after them. If I need to step out it will be for short intervals.

About: Raised on a farm by two small-animal vets, I’ve been around animals my whole life. Growing up I loved helping out in the vet clinic and taking care of the animals who boarded with us at the farm. In London, I’ve always been happy to house-sit for friends and flatmates pets while they traveled or were busy with work. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and preferences—but all deserve the same attention, care, and affection! I am currently a freelance consultant and primarily work from home, so I have substantial control over my weekly schedule to help adapt to your needs. I am happy to follow whatever pet care routines in your own home that you prefer. While I do not personally have a crate or garden at my flat, I am nearby some great parks in West London that pups love and can socialize them with some of my neighborhood friends' friendly dogs if desired.

“Great communication and confidence in looking after Maxi whilst I was away.”


“Tom and Frankie have been absolutely fantastic with my toy poodle CoCo. She’s known for being a yapper with pretty intense separation anxiety, a lot of prep has been put into place to make sure I’d be able to leave for 2 weeks comfortably, Tom and Frankie have been there every step of the way. Can’t recommend them enough!”


“Jimena did a great job with my cat! The cat is very shy and needs an inhaler administered and Jimena handled all of the cat's needs really well, and was timely and communicative. Will definitely be booking again!”


About: I grew up with dogs as a core part of my childhood and frequently dog sit for family members, including long walks and vet visits. In January 2020 we adopted a puppy who became my whole lockdown life. He was a bit of a training challenge with a couple of health complications along the way, meaning I’ve now got a knack for communicating, know how to comfort nervous pups, and have a sharp eye to keep an eye on them with. I know how important your dog is to you and that there is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to caring for them - except that it will always be with respect and care :) I work from home Monday - Friday, but have a flexible schedule during the day and most evenings free. I can bring my laptop to work from anywhere, and have a car to get around in. Weekends vary. I will want to know your dog’s general routine, likes and dislikes, no-go areas and learned commands, as well as general temperament so I can interact with them safely and in a way they will respond well to. I am clean and tidy, will have respect for your environment and privacy, and would prefer to discuss case by case the logistics of visiting your home (including any considerations for my own safety!).

“Najma was such a great cat sitter for Milo! my heart was at ease knowing that Milo was being well taken care of. daily updates and photos were so cute and helpful. Najma is a wonderful cat sitter and very patient with shy pets such as Milo! will definitely be booking again 😊🐾💖 xxx”


About: I have always loved animals and have experience taking care of dogs and cats for friends and family. I am calm, friendly, and patient with pets. I can help with feeding, walking, playing, and giving lots of love. I understand how important pets are in the family and I always take care of them like they are my own. I have a part-time job, so I’m free in the morning and sometimes afternoon and on weekends. I’ll have lots of time to take care of your pets and give them love and attention. I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or at the owner’s place, I keep the environment clean, calm, and full of care. I follow all routines closely and give each pet the attention they need to feel secure and relaxed.

About: Hello, my name is Ira and I love dogs! I offer dog walking, drop-ins and house sitting services. I have always had family dogs and have always been been trusted to taking care of family and friend's dogs for over 15 years. I currently work from home so is always flexible to take breaks and walk your dog. There are a few great little parks around my home and also a dog park just a minute away . I live in a secure gated flat with no other pets, no smoking and no toxic plants. Your doggies are welcome to chill on the sofa for a little snooze! My fiancé and I both work from home so we are there to feed, walk and play with your dog :) We will also provide constant updates throughout the day for your peace of mind. We are very loving and attentive and also adaptive to your dogs needs. Your dog will be in great hands, so rest assured there is nothing to worry! :)

About: I have looked after friends and family members pets for a day or two every couple of months, since I was 12. My paid experiences were looking after my friends bosses dogs for a week. One being 7 years and one being a 6 month old puppy and I made sure to learn some training skills. They relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets which I did successfully. Through rover I have walked a range of lovely small to medium dogs. I love dogs but can’t afford one right now so I would love to look after others for the time being! I am a primary teacher so that means I can do late evening walks on weekdays. I enjoy walks and try and go on one a day. I also have the holidays free to sit pets (specifically the Easter this year so please contact if you would like to arrange in advance) . I can also be free most weekends for a walk or two. If you need more adhoc walks my partner can work from home so could hopefully help you out http://r.rover.com/9rBmQr. He has had his own dogs in his family home for decades. A small meeting before walking and boarding would be beneficial for myself and the dog. If that goes successfully and you would like to set up a regular arrangement I would love to build up a consistent client base. I live in a flat that is fenced off and has a small garden, I also live really near a park, so it’s ideal for walking dogs and giving them lots of space, in this location I could have dogs for one night. I provide them with mental stimulation and love practising tricks with them. If you would like your dog to stay more than one night, I will need to go to my parents home in North West London which has a good sized fenced off garden and a local park! As standard, I will not let the dog off the leash unless you are confident they are recall trained and I have your permission, and we’re in a fenced dog friendly area. I prefer to cross the road away from other dogs/triggers that may upset your dog in order to make the walk fun and stress free for them. When walking near the road, I will keep myself on the side nearest the cars to prevent the dog from getting too close to the edge. When visiting your home I like to return your keys same day or next day at the latest, ideally after you have returned home (just in case there are problems and you need me to visit for another feed).
