About: Every pet's situation is unique. Prices listed are very basic. I will work with you and make sure your needs are met. Don’t worry, talk to me, I may be able to adjust the price so it is affordable and reasonable. I will always follow your rules and provide your pet with the absolute best care possible when you're away. I am always on time and will never cancel short notice. I am someone you can rely on. I try to keep your pets routine as similar to yours as possible, and do things with your pet that they enjoy. My husband and I were members of a different house sitting site for some years and have really enjoyed our house-sits so far and have had no complaint with may repeat stays. We own our own home and house sit for family & friends, feed neighbour's cats, walk and feed their dogs, feed and clean rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters. We would look after your animals and home as if they were our own, watering the garden etc. I work full time as a legal secretary, so currently can ony take sits where the dog may be left during the day, or I am happy to sit at weekends. A new place and people is always stressful for your dog or cat so I understand that most people would like to have their animal looked after in their own home where they will have a routine as this helps them to relax as they know what to expect from me. I will always put your pet first. I work full time so currently am only able to sit for animals that can be left during the day. I am happy to sit weekends. Unfortunately I do not board dogs or cats at my house but am very happy for you to bring your Bunnys in their hutch round

“Again James was great, looked after Ori really well as usual, gave us good information on Ori during the day, really a nice, friendly sitter - thanks James !”

About: I’ve been looking after the fur-babies of my friends, family and colleagues for as long as I can remember. As a child my family have always had dogs and cats as members of our family. I love the opportunity play and snuggle. This is how I spend free time: cuddles with my two kitties who my husband thinks I love more than him… no comment. I am currently a part-time teacher so I’m always free on school holidays, weekends and Mondays. I’m going to be leaving soon so I will have lots more availability . In my experience pets are happiest in their own environment where they feel comfortable and safe, which is why I am happy to offer in-home visits, where I can feed/play/walk with your pet.

“Jessica was very helpful, quick to reply & kept in touch frequently. She looked after my two large dogs with ease & care for a week overnight at my home whilst we were away. No issues whatsoever & would happily recommend. Rapport was easy to develop & wouldn’t hesitate in rebooking. Felt my dogs were safe & secure & looked after by someone I felt I could trust, which proved to be correct. Great service with compassion & care for my dogs throughout. Thank you Jessica, hope to avail of your services in the future again!”

“Maisy had a fantastic weekend being looked after by Meg whilst she was house/pet sitting for us. Meg kept us updated with their adventures each day & it’s clear Maisy was very happy & relaxed with her. The house was well looked after as well and Meg kept Maisy cool & my plants watered over the very hot weekend. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Meg.”

“Ben was really great, he came beforehand to meet our dog and go over everything. He arrived early and survived a bit of a mauling from our Collie when he first arrived. He’s very good with dogs and is clearly very comfortable around them. We felt in very safe hands and will definitely use him again.”

About: ​Since the age of 10, my life has been dedicated to animals. Growing up on a farm in Portugal, I was surrounded by the heartbreaking reality of stray animals, which sparked a lifelong mission to help. I couldn't turn a blind eye; I brought home every animal in need—from dogs and cats to injured birds. ​Eventually, after endless ignored "no more animals after this one" pleas, my parents finally accepted their fate and helped me build dedicated kennels on our farm. Together with the local community, we provided food, medical care, and a safe haven for these animals until we could find them their forever homes. Through these 17 years of rescue work, I didn't just provide care; I studied animal behavior deeply, learning how to communicate with and comfort dogs of all temperaments. ​Currently, I am the proud parent of two dogs—a Husky and a rescue Collie/Lab—who are my entire world. I know how difficult it is to leave your fur-babies behind, which is why I treat every guest like a member of my own family. ​When your dog is with me, they can expect: * 🌟 Endless Love & Cuddles: No shortage of affection and sofa time. ​🌟 Active Adventures: Frequent walks and play tailored to their energy levels. ​🌟 Paddock Time: I live 10 minutes away from a secure paddock where I take my dogs all the time; I'm happy to take yours for a run there too! ​🌟 A "Spoilt" Experience: I promise to love and spoil your pups just as much as I do my own. ​I truly miss the feeling of being surrounded by "fur" and making a difference in an animal's life. I can’t wait to meet your best friend and give them a home-away-from-home experience! I'm currently studying full time from home so your fur baby will never be alone. Walks 3x a day - morning after and evening I go paddocks often especially in good weather and I am happy to take yours along. ​I offer a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced-in garden for secure playtime. My two friendly dogs provide great company, ensuring your pet never feels lonely. I am experienced with crate training if needed for sleeping or quiet time. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a consistent routine, plenty of supervised exercise, and constant attention to keep your fur baby happy and secure.

“Martina is our new angel! She was amazing from before her dates even started and only continued to amaze there after! Martina came out and walked with the dogs before the start date so that they felt more comfortable when we left. She actually came over at 2:30am when we left so they’d be less stressed as wee left, even though I assured her it wasn’t necessary. She went above and beyond in every interaction she had with the dogs and us. Martina provided comprehensive updates everyday, which is was very reassuring for us whilst we were away. She even noticed medical requirements that arose on one of my dogs and after consulting me, started to provide care according to my wishes. Even kept the house clean when we said she didn’t need to. Cannot recommend enough, one of the most conscientious dog carers we have ever used and I’ll definitely be leaning on her for dog walks and boardin in the future as the dogs clearly love her. Many thanks Martina”
