“Olivia was fab - arranged to come over to the house for a meet and greet to get to know our dog. All communication spot on. We had confidence that everything was going to be fine whilst we were away. Plus the dog seems knackered so they must have had a great time! Thank you, would get in touch again when the need arises 🌟😊”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, having looked after pets for family, friends and neighbours, as well as owning both a dog and cats myself. This has given me a good understanding of their individual personalities, routines and needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care or simply providing companionship, I always ensure pets feel safe, comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s routine and will treat every animal with the same care and attention I would give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule allowing me to provide walks, feeding, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I plan my routine around the pets in my care to ensure they receive constant attention, exercise and affection while maintaining their usual routines. Whether it’s daily visits, walks or overnight care I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care that meets each pet’s individual needs. The safety and wellbeing of every pet is my top priority. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality and any specific care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether caring for pets in my home or an owner’s home I maintain a clean, safe and calm environment ensuring doors and gates are secure, hazardous items are kept out of reach and pets are never left unattended for longer than agreed. I treat every home with respect and can provide regular updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

“Thomas was absolutely fantastic with Noodle. He helped us out at the last minute and was on time, professional and asked a lot of thoughtful questions about caring for Noodle. We’d definitely ask Thomas again”

“Eleanor is a fantastic sitter. Arrived in great time, friendly, polite and asked all the right questions about my dogs needs for the evening. My dog loved her. Would highly recommend.”

“Helen is a delight! Really helped us out at short notice, and took Fred from another sitter, despite not meeting Fred before, and it was a late-at-night sitting. Fred was looked after beautifully, and we could not be more thankful for Helen for allowing us to feel that Fred was in safe hands. 10/10.”

“Emma looked after Misty for us whilst we had a family celebration day. Emma soon had Misty settled and comfy and they had a good day together which included two walks. Emma sent us photos and a video of their outings and Misty looked happy with their adventures. Misty has taken to Emma and we will certainly be using her services again. Thank you Emma for taking such good care of Misty for us.”

Clifford D.

“What a find she is Emma is fantastic. Reliable, responsible and respectful. The dogs adored her and the house was clean and tidy for our return. Highly recommend Emma to anyone who asks and wish her the best for her future assignments”

About: Hi, I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and I’ve come back from university for a long holiday break and would love to welcome your dog into my family’s home to stay. I’m also available for dog walking and day care. We can offer a fenced and safe garden, comfortable sofa and plenty of time for cuddles, company, walks and playtime to all the dogs that stay with us. Our home is very dog friendly and full of treats and toys. We live local to the river and multiple green spaces for a variety of walks. Our family dog, Willow, is 5 years old, she’s an independent miniature poodle. I am happy to arrange a meet and greet before any booking if you would like to see how your dog gets on. I can also easily accommodate separate walks for your dog if you prefer. I want to make your pet feel like this is their home from home so if they have any special requests to make them feel comfortable then please feel free to ask 😁 I’m back from university so I’m available most days, including weekends. I will also be taking care of my own dog when my parents are at work, so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog. I can easily accommodate a dog crate, if your dog is happiest sleeping there. I have a medium-sized fenced garden and live close to Bootham park and the river for nice walks. Your dog is welcome on the sofa and my priority is making them welcome and comfortable.

“Hazuki’s communication has been great. For our pet sitting booking she was reliable and we felt completely comfortable and relaxed knowing she was looking after our cat and dog. I would definitely recommend Hazuki as a petsitter.”

“Lottie was great - really friendly and Enzo loved her straight away. She sent lots of updates and we felt very comfortable with her looking after him. Would recommend!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for most of my life. Growing up, my family had a female Pomeranian who was with us for over 10 years, followed by a female Husky. Caring for them gave me experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities. Now I live with my partner and our spayed female Cockapoo, Loopy. Looking after her has taught me the importance of understanding each dog’s individual needs, routine and personality. I’ve also looked after friends’ dogs, including a large Old English Sheepdog, whom I bathed and cared for, as well as several Cockapoos. One of my friend’s Cockapoos even stayed overnight in our home for a week, so I’m experienced in helping dogs settle into a new environment and feel comfortable. I genuinely love spending time with dogs. I enjoy taking them for walks, visiting parks and going on countryside walks together. I always pay close attention to their behaviour, comfort and wellbeing, and I’ll care for your dog with the same love and attention that I give my own. As a freelancer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give dogs plenty of time, attention and companionship throughout the day. Caring for dogs is already a big part of my daily life, as I share my home with my partner and our lovely Cockapoo, Loopy. As a Cockapoo owner myself, I understand the energy, affection and attention this breed needs, and I’m always happy to adapt to each dog’s own routine and personality. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime or simply relaxing with people, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved and at home. Your dog’s safety, comfort and happiness will always come first. I have a friendly, spayed female Cockapoo who enjoys the company of other dogs. I introduce dogs gradually and never leave them together unsupervised until I’m confident they’re comfortable with each other. I’ll carefully follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, medication (if needed) and any special instructions. Every dog is different, so I take the time to understand their personality and make sure they feel relaxed and secure. My goal is for your dog to enjoy their stay just as much as you enjoy your time away.

“Jonny came to see Ruby In advance of us going out for the evening just to say hello to us and Ruby as he lives nearby Ruby is a 14 week old puppy We felt very reassured by that He came on time and sent us pictures of Ruby whilst we were out for the evening so we knew she was absolutely fine We would definitely recommend Jonny to people and we will contact him again if we have another night out”

About: I have had pets since I was 10 years old. I have had cats, dogs and kittens and also rabbits. I have experience looking after people’s kittens/cats/senior cats and also puppies/adult dogs and senior dogs. I have medication administration experience as our old senior cat had medical conditions which required medication. I love looking after furbabies to ensure their individual needs are being met taking into consideration their different personalities. I currently work a 9-5 job Monday to Friday but I am free evenings and over the weekend. Over the weekend I am more flexible to look after pets in my own home, take them for walks and do drop in sessions. I can also offer dog walking/ drop in sessions in the evening after work hours. I have a fenced backyard for your furbaby and I am a 5 minute walk away from a field. I am available to meet up prior to a sit/walk or drop in so I am able to meet you and your furbaby so you can assess who is going to look after your family member.
