I am so happy I found April. She looked after my beagle Pyppa with so much care and kindness. My dog is not easy (older and a bit anxious), but April was very patient and understanding. I felt at ease knowing Pyppa was in good hands. Highly recommend!

About: I have looked after family pets, dogs, cats, a parrot & rabbits for many years but would love to help others as well. I love walking and am happy to take dogs for a long walk. I love cats as well, I would be happy to keep them company for a while, administer medication & feed them. Recently I have looked after 5 cats which was an interesting experience. Luckily they all had name tags so that I knew who was who! I would be happy to stay overnight if necessary. I have recently retired from my teaching job (food technology) so I'm now available day & night to care for your pets or to walk your dogs. I have a very safe bungalow, the garden is fenced securely in which I can look after your dogs and plenty of room inside if the weather is bad.

Tori was great and made a fuss of our cat James during her visits, while we were away on holiday. Great communication, both prior to the cat sitting, and during. Would highly recommend for all cat sitting needs.

Naomi did an amazing job looking after my two cats. She kept me informed of how they were and wasn't fazed by the diva antics of one the fur balls:-D. She really put my mind at rest, completely recommend.

About: I am currently a Uni student that loves animals, while I would love to have some, unfortunately I can't, as I am currently living in accommodation, to get around that I decided to try and find some to take care of! :) I have had a few pets ever since I was little, from hamsters, tortoises, birds, dogs and so on. I have taken care of quite a few pets, such as cats, dogs, birds, etc, mostly of these pets were dogs as I am more familiar with dogs and they are my favourite animal. I try my best to spoil the pets, by buying them toys, their favourite snacks and so on. I can do weekends, just contact me to arrange the times as I am usually working. Rest assured that you'll leave your pets in safe hands. I am currently working part time and studying full time, therefore I might need to check my calendar before confirming any bookings, but I am always willing to walking/taking care of your pet(s). Apologies for that! I have experience with many dogs, small, medium and big. I will always make sure that the needs of your pet(s) are fulfilled as well as ensuring a safe environment for them to play/roam around.

About: I have always had a strong passion for animals and a natural ability to care for them. From the age of 14 to 16, I regularly walked dogs around my neighbourhood, building experience with different breeds and temperaments. I grew up with Rottweilers, so I am confident handling larger, strong dogs as well as smaller pets. I currently have a cat, who I have successfully trained to sit for treats, showing my patience and understanding of animal behaviour. I have also volunteered at animal rescues, further developing my hands-on experience and compassionate approach. I provide a loving, safe, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. My cat is both dog- and cat-friendly and has previously lived with a Rottweiler who is his best friend and still sees regularly, so I am happy to host pets that are comfortable around cats. I am also more than happy to care for dogs of any temperament in their own home, ensuring they feel relaxed and secure in a familiar environment. I have a flexible and reliable schedule, as I currently work part-time while my partner is at home full-time. This means there will always be someone present to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. Together, we have lots of time to play, provide companionship, and ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved at all times. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, your pet will never be left feeling lonely and will receive consistent, attentive care. I offer a safe and comfortable environment for pets, with a large, fully fenced garden where they can play and explore securely. I live on a quiet, non-busy road, making walks calm and stress-free. I can also provide a crate if needed, whether for training, rest, or to maintain your pet’s usual routine. My home is a relaxed, pet-friendly space where your pet will feel safe, settled, and well cared for.

About: Joint care of a nervous Greek rescue with my Mum over the last few years. Very cautious and give him the right level of space when we go out on a walk, making sure that he is comfortable as we build his confidence. I drive, and mostly work from home, so I'm available for drop ins, overnighters, boarding etc. Thanks for considering me!

About: I lived all my life around animals , especially dogs and cats and would be lovely to have some pet company in our house . We are a frendly quiet family Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom to a sweet and energetic 3-year-old daughter, which means I’m home full-time and able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. We absolutely love animals, and your pet will be treated like part of our family while they’re here. My fiancé, Gabriel, works full time, and when he’s home we enjoy going for walks or visiting the park for about 30 minutes to an hour (depending on the weather). Daily outdoor time is already part of our routine, so it’s easy for us to fit in regular walks and playtime for your pet. Spacious house with plenty of room for pets to explore and relax Lovely fenced garden — perfect for safe outdoor play, sunbathing, or potty breaks Pets are welcome on the couch and can get comfortable wherever they feel happiest Constant supervision, especially with pets that need extra attention A calm, family-style environment with lots of interaction 🧸 Toys & Supplies I don’t provide specific dog or cat toys or food, so please bring anything your pet needs or loves. However — fun bonus — pets often enjoy playing with some of our old baby toys (safe, soft, and supervised). They usually get quite entertained!

About: Hi, I’m a reliable and caring dog lover based locally 😊 I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog with someone, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to tailor walks to suit your dog’s needs—whether that’s a calm stroll, lots of play, or helping burn off energy! I have experience caring for animals and am very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments. I’m also used to being around animals daily, so I’m confident picking up on their behaviour and making sure they feel safe and happy at all times. I offer: 🐕 Solo or small group walks 🏡 Drop-in visits 📸 Photo and video updates so you can see how your dog is doing ⏰ Flexible availability, including weekdays and weekends Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while they’re with me. If you have any questions or specific requests, feel free to message me—I’m always happy to help 😊 I work in a school so I have all of the half terms completely off work. When I am at work I can board on Friday and Saturday nights and walks all over the weekends I follow all guidelines that owners ask and treat any animal in my care as if they were my own. I can cater for any needs

About: I've been around dogs as long as I can remember. I cared for my Frenchie from a puppy until a senior, as well as taking in other people's pets whilst they are away or aren't able to care for them. As a very active person, I love to go for long runs and adventures through forests or parks but am just as happy caring and hanging out with them when they need it. I have been pet sitting for years, however I began working with other people's pets as a part time job (I'm a professional dancer!) in 2022. Since then, I absolutely love it! I am a professional dancer and pet-sitting is my side job since I lost my beautiful dog of 12 years in 2022. I am quite available however I do leave the country occasionally to tour (this is always updated in my calendar in advance). My brother, who used to work in dog shelters in Bulgaria, is often available to cover me incase of ill-health, injury or unforseen circumstances. I have a fenced garden and a doggy door that gives pets free range to use the outdoor/indoors as they please. This can also be locked if necessary. I do have two cats who grew up with my dog for 5 years and got along with her very well. One of them is mainly outdoors, and the other is usually wherever people are. There are many beautiful parks in this area too that are safe for dogs and I regularly walk dogs around.

Absolutely amazing cat sitter! Teodora took such great care of Stitchy and Fluffy and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, caring, attentive, and clearly loves animals. The cats were happy and well looked after when I came home. I’ll definitely be using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets.

Louise was fast to respond to messages and arrived every day as promised, even going as far as to notice my bin day and put the cat poo bags out accordingly (which wasn't something we'd asked her to do!). She kept me up to date with goings on at the house while we were away and seemed to bond well with my two cats during her meet & greet visit. I guess I would have preferred that she spent a bit longer at the house each day, but their needs were very low maintenance so there wasn't much to do after cat litter cleaned. I would happily use Louise again if I needed someone to look after my cats and would recommend her.

I booked Adina last minute to take care of my cat Archie on a bank holiday weekend when my other cat sitter cancelled last weekend. Adina was able to squeeze me in. Adina took very good care of Archie, and I was reassured by her prompt communication and care that Archie was well taken care of over the weekend. Archie had just been recently rehomed to me and this was the first time that I had left him overnight and with a sitter, so I was initially nervous but that soon melted away with the photos and videos Adina sent me. I would recommend Adina to anyone.

This was our first experience with a cat sitter, and we are very pleased with Anna and Rover. Anna was thoughtful, friendly, and went out of her way to accommodate my requests. We just got back home to well fed and taken care of cats, who were missing us, for sure, but that was to be expected, since we were gone for 2 weeks. I love the fact that I got to see pictures and videos of the cats everyday, and I would have a brief chat with Anna, everyday, where she would update me about all three of my cats. It's been a happy experience. We will be looking forward to booking Anna and Rover again. Thank you!

Katie did a fantastic job looking after my cat, Jessica Fletcher. She sent me updates every day and it was clear that Jess was happy to see her and took an instant liking to her. I came home to a happy cat, and a tidy house. Katie was super reliable, trustworthy and gave me absolute peace of mind whilst I was away. I would 100% recommend her to anyone and I will be booking her again without hesitation.
