“Amazing boarding with Kim, Bailey had a great time and Kim took such amazing care of her. Plenty of updates whilst we were away and Bailey can’t wait for her next visit with her favourite people! Thanks again Kim! ⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We left our dog Goofy with Gabriella for 3 days and we honestly couldn’t have chosen better. She took amazing care of him, kept us updated with photos and messages, and made sure he felt comfortable and loved. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We truly appreciate her care and would 100% recommend her. 🤍🐶”
“Leonor is a fantastic cat sitter! Super attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was such a relief knowing my cat was in good hands. I will definitely book again 🙌”
“Nicola and her family looked after our dog Bandit over Christmas for us. They kept in touch with photos. Bandit settled in very well and I think he will be more than happy to go back again. Very nice people and we felt very comfortable leaving Bandit with them. Will definitely use them again x”
“Sayo was fantastic with my puppy Tej. He kept me updated throughout, was really flexible with collection times, and has such a naturally lovely nature that I think dogs instantly warm to. He even taught my puppy to stay, which was such a bonus! His own dog, Cassie, is the sweetest companion and I think it was such a benefit for my puppy to be around an older dog . I’d definitely recommend Sayo to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and skilled pet sitter.”
“Another happy doggy stayover for our Byron. He really enjoys spending time. With Renata and Owen and their dog and any other dogs that are staying over and he is lovingly cared for by their family. Which is wonderful for us to know. They are fantastic dog sitters we are so thankful to have found them and to know our Byron is so happy and relaxed and loved whenever he goes to stay with them.”
About: Hi 👋🏼 I’m Anisha! I live in Gidea Park and offer dog walking, check-ins, sitting and boarding services across the Havering/Romford areas . I’ve loved and cared for dogs for over 12 years and since moving out of my family home, I’ve really missed having dogs around. Looking after them brings me so much joy! Feel free to message me with any questions — I’m always happy to chat and can arrange a meet and greet before any bookings 😊 I look forward to meeting your beloved pets and providing them with a loving, enjoyable experience! ✔️ DBS checked I can travel to your home for dog walks/check ins and offer dog boarding and sitting services too. I work from home most days so I can work around you and your dog’s needs. I live in a first floor flat that has an open plan kitchen and living room which links to the fenced balcony so your dog has lots of space. I also live a short walk away from a park so your dog can have lots of outdoor space too.
“I can’t speak highly enough about the exceptional care provided by Paulina. My dog came back to me happy, healthy. I’m incredibly grateful for providing loving environment. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire process, photos and videos included. Thank you, Paulina, for being such a wonderful caretaker.”
“We are so glad Paolo enjoyed he’s holiday with David. Our boy is very anxious and takes a while to settle in but we naturally felt at ease after the meet & greet. Paolo has found a new uncle and I’m sure will enjoy he’s next stay even more. Thank you for looking after our boy. Highly recommend”
“100/10 I fully and completely recommend Rima! I almost don’t have words for how incredible Rima was. We had a long term request that was fairly last minute but she was able to do a meet & greet and trial night and we felt super comfortable with them right away. I have two dogs that both have higher needs (separation anxiety and pain management) and she handled their medication perfectly, and her husband was able to help ensure the dogs were never left alone. We got a daily photo update with pictures and videos of our very happy, comfortable and loved dogs, and a weekly text update all about how they were doing. They got multiple walks and park outings every day. It really was perfect! Thank you Rima.”
“A big thank you from the both of us for taking such great care of our Leon. İt being his first boarding experience without us, Helen and Olga did everything to put our nerves at rest and we could see through regular updates, photos and videos that Leon was also having a great holiday of his own. Thank you for being so accommodating! :)”
“Adina took fantastic care of Remi and sent daily pictures/videos which was amazing. She even took my dog to the beach for the first time! Would definitely recommend Adina.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life and grew up with dogs as part of my family. As an adult, I also owned my own Sphynx cats, so I am very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. From the age of 17, I regularly dog-sat for a family friend while she travelled for work, caring for her Greyhound over weekends in her home. This involved feeding, walking, companionship, and ensuring her dog felt calm, settled, and well cared for in her owner’s absence. I have also dog sat for my aunt and uncle’s Labrador for extended periods of 2–3 weeks at a time when they go on holiday. During these stays, I took full responsibility for daily care, exercise, routines, and plenty of attention and affection. I now live in a pet-free family home with my husband and our two children, who absolutely love animals and are gentle, calm, and respectful around pets. Your dog would be welcomed into our home as part of the family and cared for in a safe, loving, and relaxed environment. I work in the office on Mondays and Tuesdays, but I am home for the rest of the week while the children are at school. This means I’m able to offer plenty of supervision, companionship, and consistent care throughout the day ideal for cats and dogs who enjoy company and routine. During the weekdays, pets are cared for in a calm, quiet home environment with regular check-ins, playtime, feeding, and enrichment. At weekends, our full family of four is around. We love spending time outdoors and often enjoy local forest walks, making weekends perfect for dogs who enjoy gentle adventures, fresh air, and lots of extra attention. Cats benefit from additional companionship, cuddles, and a lively but loving household. I’m open to all boarding requests and understand that every pet and family is different please feel free to reach out and we can make a plan that suits your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing are my top priorities. I care for pets in a clean, calm, and pet-free family home, which allows me to provide close supervision and a relaxed environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine, feeding instructions, and care preferences, and I’m careful to maintain consistency to help them feel settled and secure. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I always ensure doors, gates, and living areas are kept secure. I’m experienced in handling pets gently and respectfully, including cats with specific care needs such as regular grooming, nail trimming, and ear cleaning when required. Children in our home are calm, kind, and taught to interact with pets safely and respectfully at all times, with supervision. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and messages, so you can feel confident and reassured while you’re away. I also encourage meet & greets beforehand to make sure it’s the right fit for both you and your pet. My aim is to create a safe, loving, home from home environment where your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and treated as part of the family.
“Elisa was fantastic. We trusted her with our beloved Twix whilst we were away on holiday. She sent regular updates and pictures. We could tell from the pictures Twix was having a great time and being looked after. Daily walks and plenty of activity with Elsie’s own dog. We’re really pleased we went with Elisa and the service she’s provided. Would recommend and use again.”
“It was our first time leaving Roary, and Diana made the whole experience stress free. She sent regular updates, which reassured us so much while we were away. From the photos and messages, we could tell Roary was having the best time. We recommend Diana to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 10 years old and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I previously had a Chihuahua who sadly passed away two years ago, and I now have a 4-year-old Maltipoo who is loving, playful and very sociable with other dogs. I fully trained her from a puppy myself, which gave me hands-on experience with potty training, basic commands, and building good routines. I’ve also dog sat multiple times in the past, including overnight stays, and I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving lots of attention and affection. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible and attentive to your dog’s needs throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and overnight stays. Because I’m home daily, I can provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I can easily adjust my routine to suit your dogs schedule Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a really big secure garden where dogs can safely run around and play, as well as a park just a two-minute walk from my home for regular walks and exercise. My 4-year-old Maltipoo is friendly and well-socialised, making her a great companion for visiting dogs. I always introduce dogs slowly and supervise playtime closely. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and can crate if needed. Because I work from home, your dog will always be well supervised and cared for in a loving, calm environment. My goal is for your dog to feel completely at home here - safe, happy and loved.
“Maria and her husband did an amazing job looking after Molly. Molly was made to feel at home and got multiple walks. Updates very plentiful throughout the day and I would highly recommend Maria for pet sitting!”

My French Bulldog Stella, stayed overnight with Sarah and her husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sarah was so lovely, really flexible, and clearly brilliant with dogs. Stella settled in straight away and when I picked her up she looked completely relaxed and at home, which was really reassuring. Sarah kept me updated while Stella was there which I really appreciated, and it was clear Stella was being really well looked after. I’d definitely recommend Sarah and will 100% book Stella in again.
Koda had a 3-night sleepover with Gabriella for her first time away from home. I received photo updates during her stay. In the pictures, she looked relaxed and comfortable in the environment. When we picked her up, she seemed settled and of course excited and a little hyper to see us, as expected for a 5-month old puppy. Thank you for caring for her during her stay. I would definitely recommend her and use her again.
Kirsty was really kind, helpful and flexible when booking our stay with Max. The second he got in the house we understood that he was really was comfortable already and she was king enough to keep us updated on how he was doing throughout the week as well as sending photos. We will definitely book again :)
Well I can’t put it into words how well looked after our little Hope was!!!! We have contacted Marisa last minute to enquire about her availability and we were lucky enough to be accepted. Our miniature poodle was spoiled with love, cuddles and socialising (not sure we can keep up with Marisa) and we received lots of updates. As a dog owner you can tell when your dog enjoys their time with the dog sitter and we are more than happy about the choice we made with Marisa. Thank you! ❤️🐕🐾🐶
Zuzanna and her family were absolutely amazing! Our little Dixie LOVED her weekend, enjoying playtime with Zuzanna’s little pup Zelek, treats in the evenings and long walks. Zuzanna kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay and I didn’t think Dixie would want to come home she was having so much fun! Will definitely use Zuzanna again in the future!
Eva was absolutely wonderful with our Frenchie! It was the first time we used Eva and it won’t be the last. We got lovely updates with photos everyday, he had a walk everyday too and we felt so at peace knowing our boy was having a brilliant time. Our frenchie was so happy when we collected him, in fact he’s sulking- he misses life with Eva! Thank you so much Eva ❤️❤️ xx
Emily and her family were fantastic! Whilst I was away Emily sent photos and videos where Woody looked settled, comfortable and was enjoying his stay. Emily’s communication was fantastic at all points. On a cold walk Emily had made sure Woody had a jumper on (after I forgot to pack one) which assured me he was being looked after incredibly well. I would highly recommend Emily and would definitely be booking with her again.
Our Swiss Shepherd Lancelot had a fabulous stay with Sarah. We received lots of pictures and were kept updated with how we was doing. He's rarely away from us so we were a bit nervous about how he'd get on in a different environment but he had a brilliant time and was very well looked after. Plus he made a buddy for life in her dog Obi!
Owen and Renata have looked after Byron while we visited family abroad. He was so ahppu to be going to their home and could not wait to play with Pepsi and the other dogs that come to stay with them. We got plenty of updates with video and photos of Byron playong and out walking with Pepsi and felt very relaxed to know he was being taken care so well during his stay. There was no issues or worries ans we would highly recommend Owen and Renata to anyone as they are an excellent couple who have many years experience house sitting dogs of all kinds. 5 star quality sitters. Byron woukd not gonto anyone else as he loves his time with them.
Siu Yung and her family were absolutely wonderful with Orbit. We had a pre visit beforehand and I knew instantly that she would be well cared for. We were kept so well updated throughout her stay with messages, photos, and little details about walks, meals, and how she was settling in. It genuinely felt like Orbit was part of their family rather than just being looked after. She had lovely walks, lots of attention, and a calm, caring home environment. We came back to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with Siu Yung again and would highly recommend them for anyone looking for home Boarding!
Helen and her partner were absolutely amazing, I was very apprehensive going into this as it is the first time Ozzie has been away from me since he was a puppy, and this is the very first time I have ever done anything like this. Helen was very understanding and also understood Ozzies needs as he is very nervous around new people. Helen constantly kept me updated with pictures videos and messages about Ozzie and quite honestly he looked like he was having the time of his life, so much so I was worried he wouldn’t want to come back. I cannot recommend Helen enough and she will be the first person I go to the next time I need someone to look after Ozzie.
Nicola and her family looked after our dog Bandit over Christmas for us. They kept in touch with photos. Bandit settled in very well and I think he will be more than happy to go back again. Very nice people and we felt very comfortable leaving Bandit with them. Will definitely use them again x
