About: Having grown up in the countryside surrounded by dogs, cats, and horses, I’ve developed a deep love and natural connection with animals—especially dogs. Over the years, I’ve dog sat for many family members and friends, and I always jump at the opportunity to have a fluffy friend by my side. Dogs truly bring the most joy to life. Although my current profession is in finance, I’ve recently made the decision to reduce my hours in order to pursue my true passion—building my own pet sitting and dog walking business. As part of this journey, I’m scheduled to complete a Canine First Aid course in early September and am currently enrolled in several CPD-accredited courses, including animal psychology and communication. My goal is to offer a thoughtful, informed, and compassionate service to every furry family member I care for. Until I’m fully up and running, I’ve reinstated my Rover profile to connect with pet parents looking for reliable, loving care. I’m just a girl who decided to follow her heart and work with animals rather than stay in the corporate world. I’m also lucky to share my life with Harvey, my handsome 4-year-old golden retriever. He loves making new doggy friends and can provide gentle companionship during walks or boarding stays—if your dog would benefit from a bit of socialisation. That said, I will always tailor my care to your pet’s needs and, as standard, offer one-on-one walks to ensure every dog gets the attention and calm environment they deserve I currently work just 3 hours a day with flexible timing, which gives me plenty of free time for long countryside strolls and quality time with furry friends. I’d love to help give your dog the playtime, attention and cuddles they deserve while you're away or busy. I'm available for both day and overnight boarding, from a single day to a full week. I just ask that we arrange a meet and greet beforehand with my 4-year-old Golden Retriever Harvey, to make sure both dogs are happy and comfortable in each other’s company. I have a full fenced garden with no possibility of a dog attempting ‘the great escape’ and have no issues with pets being in the house and on furniture.

“Steve was fantastic with our puppy Hugo. We needed someone fairly close by and able to take a puppy, as he’s too young for kennels. Steve was really friendly and has an obvious love for animals. He kept us updated throughout the day and whatsapped some great videos. Thanks Steve, will use you again in the future!”


“Penny had the best stay, was so well looked after and we were completely at ease leaving her with India. Thank you so much for the lovely pictures throughout the day. 100% recommend!”


“My dog always has a lovely time with Claire. She takes time to do enrichment activities with the dogs she cares for and my pup is always happily exhausted at the end of the day.”


“What an amazing dog sitter ❤️ when we arrived with Demon for his stay with Katarzyna, she was ready for him and he instantly fell in love with her! During the day we’ve received plenty of photos from the walk and when he was chilling in the house. We could see that he is having a great time and that he is well looked after 🤗 I cannot thank you enough, it was such a piece of mind that our furry baby was looked after with so much care ☺️”

“Hazel is amazing, she absolutely loves dogs and my dog Senna loved her, he immediately felt at home and I couldn’t be happier to leave him with such a wonderful caring dog mum. Hazel has a lovely home and 2 dogs for Senna to make friends with. Nothing was a problem or hassle and the whole experience was made very easy and smooth. 100% recommend !”

“Amanda was brilliant with our greyhound, Robin. We had an initial meet up with her and her two labradors (lovely dogs 😊) to see how they responded to each other and I was filled with confidence from this. Robin was well exercised on each day with Amanda, and all other needs were taken care of. I was given a full report each day along with some photos. Robin was clearly very happy with his stay. Thank you Amanda!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them 🤍 My childhood dog Tyson, was part of our family for an incredible 22 years! During Covid, we welcomed our shih-tzu Teddy into our home. He’s a very calm natured boy who loves nothing more than laying on the sofa and having belly tickles. He’s also very used to other dogs being around and loves to spend time with his best friend Max the Beagle. Looking after Teddy has given me first hand experience in everything from daily walks, grooming, lots of belly rubs and sharing the occasional cheese sandwich with him Over the years, I’ve also looked after friends and familys dogs from energetic puppies to older dogs. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and my aim is to always love and care for your dog just like I would my own 🐾 I currently work from home which affords me the luxury of being able to look after your dog at my home, but can equally be at your house if this suits you better I have an enclosed garden with lots of grass for your dogs to play in. I will treat your own dogs like my own, with your guidance on what they love best. Every dog is different and I appreciate that they will all have unique needs which I’m happy to cater to 💫

“Karen was absolutely brilliant with Milo, and he had the best time (now snoozing away in his bed). She sent lots of pictures to assure me he was fine, which I really appreciated considering it’s the first time I’ve left him all day. It looks like Milo and Karen’s lovely pup Millie had an absolute blast while I was at work, and Milo can’t wait for his next visit. Thanks so much Karen.”


About: Hi, I’m a dedicated dog lover with years of experience in dog care. I used to run my own dog walking service in 2019/2020 and stopped due to lockdowns. I know how important your dog is to you, and I’ll always treat them like family. When I’m looking after a dog, I stay home all day so they get my full attention, care, and plenty of love. I also have a dog called Robin. He’s a big boy and very friendly. To make sure every dog feels comfortable in my home, I always book a meet and greet before the first daycare session. That way, your dog can meet Robin and we can make sure they get along. I want the stay to be enjoyable for everyone. Your dog will get a proper walk during the day, along with feeding if required and lots of attention. If your dog needs medicine or has any special care requirements, I’m happy to follow instructions and make sure everything is done properly. I only take one or two dogs at a time, so your dog won’t be overwhelmed and will get plenty of fuss (if they like it) I work a rotating shift pattern, which means I’m available for dog daycare two or three days a week. The days vary each week, but this is likely to change soon for something more steady. If you’re looking for someone reliable and experienced who truly cares about dogs, I’d be happy to help. I work 4 on 4 off nights so my availability rotates each week. Currently thinking of changing my job to have the same schedule each week but for now just check my calendar for availability. I have a small grassy garden with a 6 foot fence. They can free roam most rooms but will be kept mostly downstairs with plenty of sofa space to chill on. Good walks around my neighbourhood with quiet roads. I don’t let dogs off the leash ever for everyone’s safety.

About: I have more then 27 years experience with dogs We had so many different breeds from small Pomeranian to big stuff. Was in love with every dog. They are not just pets, they are part of the family I’m not working now and have so much free time to take care of your pets. We will walk, play and feeding well , don’t worry It’s not a problem to feed, play and take care of the pets. We can walk in the morning minimum few ours and afternoon as well
