Cat Sitting in Hinckley

About: I have hands on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments including larger or more demanding breeds. I helped raise and train an adopted Doberman independently which gave me a strong foundation in learning how to handle larger breeds. She struggled with lead pulling, dog and overall reactivity and being very hyper vigilant which made walking difficult. She also had no recall and therefore couldn't be let of the lead at all, but with her training she was able to be off lead and come back when shouted. Because of this and 4 years of working to get her to a stable place I am confident walking dogs that struggle with pulling, reactivity or overstimulation. Through my independent research and acquired knowledge of breed behaviour I have an understanding of how to work with different dogs. I understand how important trust, patience and attentiveness is in understanding how to show each dog the correct way to behave. Each pet is different and I prize myself on the ability to assess this and really become a team with them. I don't just take dogs on a walk but we experience it together, building a relationship where they can ultimately trust I am tuned into what they need so they feel supported. I make each walk engaging, calm and as much as a positive experience as I can for them. Each dog is different and I always take that into consideration. I know how hard it is to find a dog walker to trust especially if your dog requires extra care or understanding, it can be daunting enough walking them yourself never mind handing them over to someone who doesn't know their needs. That is why I make it my mission to truly build a relationship with your pet. I am currently free on all weekdays and occasionally some weekends. I have lots of free time which I would love to help care for your pets, I am pretty flexible and therefore able to work around you. I have the time to do longer walks up to 1hr for those that require it. I have always been around animals and have regularly helped neighbours, friends, family with walking and sitting. I have moved away from home and all though I can't have my own dog right now caring for them is a big part of my life. I genuinely love walking, spending time with them outdoors and giving them long enriching walks not just rushed outings. I want to give every dog the best life they can have, especially those that may have barriers to being walked due to reactivity issues. I have experienced this first hand and would be more than happy to put the work in for your pet, they deserve just as much enrichment as any other dog.

“Helen has recently started drop in visits for our puppy, Helen has been brilliant so far, she sends updates after each visit which gives us peace of mind knowing our pup is well cared for and she has even started to get excited for her visits from Helen. 😊”

“Michelle is a lovely person and the best pet sitter I ever had. My Luna fell in love with her from the first visit. She knows how to keep her calm and entertained at the same time. I trust her to the maximum because even in emergency situations she acted quick and with responsibility. I don't know about you but me I found my forever pet sitter. Thank you so much Michele 💖”

About: I have always grown up with dogs. I was raised with a deerhound, whippet and a staffy. I have now got two French bulldogs which I love dearly! I have helped out friends by having their dogs overnight too I currently work Monday - Friday 7-3 and I am available any time after. Once I have regular clients I can be more flexible :) I have a long garden that is fully fenced off and I live down the road from two different parks. There are many walks around where I live also

“Claire was amazing, Blue seemed happy, well looked after and comfortable when we got home. She was always on time, communicated throughout and we enjoyed the pictures accompanied by the witty commentary.”

“Straight from the first meet and greet myself and my partner were immediately at ease with Brendan and Ann. You can tell how much they absolutely love dogs and our Lyra was no exception. We just got home to a tuckered out little puppy that had clearly had loads of fun with her new friends - and we thought they were great too. So much so we’ll already be rebooking them again! We had lots of picture updates, everything was left tidy and we knew we’d be leaving Lyra in great company. Can’t recommend them enough!”

“Amazing! First time using Eirini for a drop in. She was very knowledgable about dogs and training, looked after my Stormy and ensured the house was safe and locked up afterwards without any issues. When I got home Storm was knackered so I know she had a good excerise. Will definitely be booking Eirinis services again”

About: I have had many years experience with dogs as my family have had dogs their whole life. I lost my fur baby a few years ago and am now ready to open up that love to all kinds of new four-pawed friends. All dogs in my life have been present since puppies so I am well-versed in the training parts of your puppy’s life and am happy to continue that on when your puppy is in my care. I can offer dog walks all around the clock as I am looking to shift that extra weight that stayed after having my baby a year ago - who is also very used to and loves dogs. I can’t wait to meet your little besties and making their days fun I am currently a stay at home mum so I am free 24/7. Starting to be a lot more active now and can travel pretty much anywhere I can walk, bus or train to easily. I am available at the drop of a hat and don’t mind same day messages. I have a large fenced garden, lots of space for your dog to run in and a friends farm with even more space if they need that extra leg stretch. I can offer constant supervision indoor and outdoor due to not currently working. I will make sure they get the right balance of exercise, play and cuddle time and will follow any instructions and/or special requirements to a T. Your baby will be well loved and well looked after in our home.

About: I am a proud dog mother to Benji, a 13 year old Lhasa-poo, and Buddy, an 8 year old Cockapoo. I grew up with dogs and cats as pets consistently and when I could get a dog of my own, Benji came home with me, later followed by Buddy. I have experience in raising dogs from puppies so know about the needs and training requirements of young pups. I also have experience with elderly four legged friends so any special requirements will be adhered to. I have always been a dog sitter to many of my friends and family as I have proven to be reliable and treat their dogs as they are used to being treated. I can also take your dog on runs if this is something that they are used to and enjoy. I currently have free time during my day and want to spend that time with as many four legged friends as possible in the great outdoors. This means that I can be flexible and work around your schedule. I have a fully fenced in garden and there are lots of wonderful walking spots in the local area that I will take full advantage of.

About: Trained my GSD from birth, no other professional involved. Always come prepared with treats and toys for your dog let’s go on an adventure together I am a care assistant in a care home, ( 3 days a week) but would love to spend my days off with your beloved pet(s) I offer service in your home or out for an adventure. I have dog seatbelts in the car for their safety and will respect your property leaving it how it was

“Juana was fantastic. She really bonded with Krissie and was able to help out at short notice. She sent lots of updates and cute photos of my little princess. Will definitely be using her services again.”

About: ✅Advanced Pet First Aid Level 3 (VTQ) ✅One family at a time for boarding I learned early on that a dog isn't just a pet. My mom rescued three dogs from the street, and caring for them throughout their lives taught me the patience, love, and responsibility required to keep our furry friends happy. Now settled in the UK, my partner and I are both dog lover, but we can't be able to have a dog yet, which is why I’ve turned my passion into a service! I treat every dog I sit as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and fully attended to while you’re away. Why choose me? Safety First: I am Pet First Aid certified and keep your vet’s contact details and clinic location saved on my phone from day one. I believe in being prepared for any situation so you can have total peace of mind. Attentive Care: Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, your dog will be my top priority. Reliable Communication: I am highly responsive and will provide regular updates and photos so you can see how much fun your pup is having! Me and my partner we can take turns to look after dogs, we will make sure at least person stays with dogs. And I have a very flexible schedule, I accept same day booking as long as the distance and time is manageable. In your home： I follow your pet’s usual routine strictly when feeding, walking, and playing, so they feel calm and happy while you’re away. I make sure all doors and gates are closed, and that everything is just how you left it. I will make sure I give lots of attention, gentle company, and keep you closly updated (you may get lots of funny moments and beautiful pictures!)

About: I have been around dogs since the first moment I can remember, and have always formed very special relationships with them. At social gatherings, I'm always the one playing with the dogs, and leave knowing I've made a new best friend. I have been helping my partner pet sit for the last 7 years (unofficially through word-of-mouth and on Rover) - see her profile here: https://www.rover.com/sit/jaydec95551. I have also recently developed a love for cats, and we have two amazing cats of our own that we absolutely adore. I am currently enjoying my "micro-retirement", and spend my time on personal projects as a software engineer at home - I can be available for the entire day throughout the week due to no formal work responsibilities. During my time as a pet caregiver, I've prioritised following detailed instructions for both animal needs (medications, routines, dietary restrictions) and home security (alarm systems, garden safety). My top priority is ensuring your pets remain safe and comfortable while in my care.

About: I've always considered myself a true animal lover! 🐶🐱🦎 There's something so rewarding about caring for a pet and providing them a loving home. Over the years, I've learned so much about responsibility, patience, and the incredible bond between humans and animals. Each pet has brought unique joy and challenges, creating countless memories I'll cherish forever. I'm grateful for the opportunity to share my life with these amazing creatures. ❤️ With my flexible schedule, I can offer timely and dependable pet care. Your furry friend will receive attentive and loving care when you're away. Rest assured, your pet's well-being is my priority. I understand the importance of reliable pet care and am committed to exceeding your expectations. Let me know your needs, and I'll be there to provide exceptional service. Having flexibility throughout the day is truly valuable. Being able to step away for a walk can be so refreshing. Dogs often appreciate a break in the day as well. Regular walks offer wonderful opportunities for exercise and exploration.

About: From a young age I’ve cared for dogs, which I have had responsibilities for, feeding walking and spending time with them. I absolutely adore long walks. I’m currently working part time so I have loads of time to play with dogs and cats. I’m available for boarding on week days and weekends from 4pm. I have a large fenced garden which will always be available for dogs to go in. Whatever the needs for your pet I can adhere to.
