About: I take care of pets as if they were my own child, I play with them, walk with them and play with them as they are always full of energy Me and my son (20 years old) both have jobs but as we work on different times we can always work around the time to take care of each animal, as I work during mornings until afternoon and he works nights. I regularly play with them, make sure that they have enough water for themselves and I also regularly take them on walks for toilet breaks

“Coco had a fantastic time with Vivianne - she enjoyed every minute and was well looked after. She had fun in the garden and thrived on the company of the other dog. I was able to relax and enjoy my time away and Vivianne’s attention to detail in sending me a video of Coco playing was greatly appreciated and a lovely touch. I will definitely have Coco looked after by Vivianne again in the future when in the Harrogate area!”


“Bruna and her family were absolutely fantastic. We got regular updates and photos of Nola having a great time in the garden. Bruna was also very accommodating of our late pick up times too. If you can, send your dog to Bruna for a fantastic trip away”


“I would highly recommend Amanda. Our dog had a great time with her. Frequent updating of photos and videos. We will definitely come back to you again 🥰”


“Stanley had another good stay with Denas (and Everett!) It was his first overnight stay but all seems to have gone well and he’s now resting, presumably recovering from a day of play with his new pal. Thank you once again and he will be back again soon!”


“Mairita was great! She was a great host for Honey and was really accomodating when we made last minute changes..”


“Eleanor and Edward are the best possible people to care for your dog. Stanley 100% loves them and dotty more than us now, and always comes back to happy and tired. I couldn’t recommend anyone more.”


About: Hi! I’m Lijana :) In the last few years, I decided to do more of what I love; spending time with dogs! I’ve had the privilege of pet sitting for a variety of dogs in London, Sydney and Harrogate and I’ve absolutely loved it. It’s been especially rewarding to be welcomed back by many of the owners and to form special bonds with their pets. I’ve loved animals since I was a child and they were a huge part of my life growing up on a farm in New Zealand. We were surrounded by a variety of animals, had a beloved family dog and cats. Nurturing and looking after pets comes easy to me and brings me enormous joy. I understand the love and strong bond between an owner and their dog, and the responsibility of caring for your precious pet. I’ll look after them like they were my own. I take enormous pride in everything I do. I’ll care for your pet with the utmost kindness, enthusiasm and reliability. Having a part-time schedule allows me the flexibility to care for your dog. I love walking and I'd be thrilled to have a companion join me on walks, exploring, playing fetch or simply enjoying the scenery. I’m happy to provide photos and video updates of your beloved pet whilst they are in my care. I’ll follow your preferred routine and guidelines whilst caring for your pet. My aim is to make them feel happy and secure in their own home environment or mine and enjoy our time together.

“Ben looked after my dog exceptionally well. He even took her to the beach. We will most certainly ask him to look after Bella again! Thank you Ben”


About: I have looked after dogs/puppies since my Sons left home 10 years ago. I am very trustworthy and treat all dogs as if they are part of my family. I simply love all dogs. I am retired and can spend all day/night looking after your dogs. I live in a fabulous location surrounded by fields this allows for some great walks. My house is a detatched house located in the middle of fields. My garden is fenced in with dry stone walling. The ground floor of my house is floor boarding and tiles so very practical for dog caring.

“Ewelina looked after Macey for me while I went to the Yorkshire Show. Arranged a meet before hand to allow Macey and Ewelina to meet up and be more comfortable on the day. Ewelina kept me updated with pictures which showed Macey completely at home and relaxed. It was great knowing she was safe and being looked after by a very genuine lady. I will definitely visit again and leave Macey in such great care.”


“Thank you Steve . You are amazing . Steve and Sandra took care of our high energy puppy for dog day care.

His communications and updates were excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend.”

“Sarah was wonderful with Max! She came round a few days before for a brief meet and greet. Arrived on time on the day. Also took Max on a long walk (in the rain) which is above and beyond! Would happily use Sarah again! Thank you ?”


“I would highly recommend Julie! My 8 month old golden doodle had the best time. From the moment we walked in, Julie helped her feel happy, safe and secure and completely put my mind at ease as this was the first time leaving Luna with someone else during the day. Julie was very friendly, accommodating and flexible. If we are ever in the area again, I will absolutely go to her as first option! Thank you!”


“Chloe was very communicative and clear, accommodating a couple specific needs and managing the high energy of our pointer. She gave Kuumba lots of attention who seemed to have a good time!”


“We had such a wonderful experience with Toffee's day sit! She had an amazing time, including a lovely long walk in nature and lots of playtime with Obi, who she got along with brilliantly. Emilie took such great care of her and kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which was so reassuring. It was clear Toffee was happy, relaxed, and having a fantastic time. I feel completely confident and at ease leaving Toffee with Emilie again – highly recommend!”


“After having an awful experience with Trusted Housesitters, I was anxious about leaving my dog with anyone else, even for a day. Meeting with Ilona in advance of the daysit helped me to feel more comfortable and the day itself went really well. She sent loads of pictures and took him on some great walks, and he was knackered at the end of the day. We hope to have Ilona watch Bryn in the future :)”


“We were so impressed with the care and love Emily gave to our Lhasa Apso Bobby ( Bob the Dog). It is the first time we have left him outside family and we were nwrvous. But Emily clearly had the knack of making him completely at home and Bob made friends with her dog Lando. She texted us after an hour to reassure us all was good and the photos were lovely of his stay. We would absolutely recommend Emily to other owners.”

Lijana S.
“Lijana has looked after our working cocker spaniel twice now. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lijana. She cared for our beloved dog brilliantly and they adored each other. We received daily updates which we loved. Our house was looked after as if it were Lijana’s own home and was left immaculate. In summary, Lijana really cares about the animals she looks after and we went away totally confident that our dog & our house were looked after.”
