Pet Sitting Holmfirth

“Maddie was excellent in taking care of our three babies (kitties) and provided me with plenty of reassurance while we were away. She asked all the right questions beforehand, sent plenty of updates and photos and went above and beyond to make sure our three were comfortable and fed (even when Rossi wasn’t eating she persisted and tried various things until he did!). There were quite a few tasks involved and Maddie did every single one within only hour drops ins, all while ensuring the kitties were given attention, love and care. The house was super clean when we came home & she made sure everything was secure. I’m very happy we met and I will be happy to have Maddie take care of the babies again!”

“Really happy with the care my cats got while I was away for the weekend. I got lovely updates and videos which made me feel so much better about being away, and it was obvious they were well looked after and given lots of attention. I came home to two happy, relaxed cats and everything was exactly as it should be. Would definitely book again and happily recommend!”

“Helena has dropped in for Rue, our 14 week puppy, several times and every time Rue has been very happy and satisfied. Helena has sent us plenty of updates whilst being with Rue and made sure to follow any requests we may have given. We would happily recommend Helena to anyone wanting their dog to be looked after well and well loved. Thank you Helena :)”

About: In February 2023, I became a dog owner. I have taken full responsibility of looking after a dog and am very committed to giving him the best life. I would take this love for dogs when looking after your own and you can be rest assured we will be having safe fun and lots of caring cuddles. It is important to me that I am a nurse so therefore work shifts. I tend to have 3-4 days off a week to be able look after other furry friends. I currently won’t be looking after pets in my home as it isn’t my home it’s a family home, however I will be happy to house sit with your dog and ensure I respect your home. I will also be doing dog walking which on discussion before hand we can talk about your preferences with how I handle your dog e.g dog must be kept on a lead, walks should only be 30mins long due to injury etc and I will ALWAYS follow your rules! I happily do day care, I will have an enclosed garden to let your dog play around freely but be aware i have my own gorgeous pouch so they will have to share 🤭

About: I have always had a pet in my home, whilst growing up I have cared for both dogs and cats and have had my two cats for 17 years as i’ve grown up learning how to care for them. I have also stepped in for any family or friend who has needed animal care whilst away. I have just finished my studies at university and currently have a lot of free time that i can put towards petting sitting and care. I provide a friendly and loving environment in either home and take precautions to make sure every pet is happy and safe under my care.

“Excellent service, great updates felt confident with Jade. She is efficient polite and we have a very happy cat. We definitely book again. Thanks”

“Jodie was once again an excellent pet sitter for Pisco. Pisco got a small wound, and Jodie immediately offered to take care of it, as well as keeping him entertained while we were away. We’re very grateful for all the care Jodie provided.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends for a few years now and even helped my roommate raise her kitten including flee treatment and litter training. I’ve had experience pet sitting for multiple pets at once both cats and dogs and overall love spending time with and taking care of cats and dogs alike. I am currently a uni student. I have full time availability, from Monday to Sunday, days and nights until October for the summer holidays where I will be back to part time availability I have stayed overnight at friend’s houses before to pet sit for both cats and dogs. Keeping an eye on multiple pets at a time and making sure they were well fed and entertained and being able to multitask responsibilities such as dog walking whilst making sure the cat was safe at home whilst we were out. I also have experience helping my roommate raise her kitten and keeping him company whilst my roommate was out including feeding him, cleaning out the litter tray or just playing with him so he had some company.

“Ryan was prompt and very polite and clearly experienced with dogs. Elsa took to him immediately on meeting and gave him lots of wags and kisses. They enjoyed a play but he then got her to settle nicely as well. I'm already planning on booking Ryan again for a longer stay.”

“Alison confirmed her drop-ins quickly which I booked very last minute while abroad. 10/10 service and trusted with house key. I can highly recommend Alison for an excellent service.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover based between Leeds and Manchester, we recently were devastated to lose our fox red Labrador, Callie. We have everything a dog could want, and a lot of love to dive, visiting dogs tend to settle in quickly and feel at home. I work from home full-time in an open-plan house, so your dog will always have company, supervision, and plenty of attention throughout the day—no long periods left alone. Our home is a relaxed, dog-friendly space where dogs are treated like part of the family. We’re lucky to have a fully enclosed garden with a secure double-gate system, so dogs can safely enjoy being outside whenever they like (weather permitting!). When it’s dry, they’re free to roam in and out as they please. Exercise is a big part of our routine. Our dog used to get three walks a day, usually up on the local moors and hills or along the canal—plenty of variety, fresh air, and stimulation. My wife, Lydia, is also a huge dog lover and often joins in, which means we can walk dogs separately if needed to suit their pace, personality, or training requirements. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog with someone, so I’ll always keep you updated with photos, messages, and reassurance while you’re away. If you’re looking for a safe, active, and loving home-from-home environment for your dog, I’d love to help. Feel free to get in touch with any questions! I work from home full time so am available for sitting any time. I’m out with our dog on walks twice a day so have no problem with walking responsibilities, and love a longer explore with the dog at the weekend. I have a fully enclosed garden, and I work looking on to it, so am always paying attention to the dogs. Our home is very pet friendly, with laminate flooring and an open plan downstairs, so dogs can have space but also always be seen.

About: Hi! After using Rover for my own dog care in the past I know how important it is to find the right home for your dog. I've had my own dogs for the last 10 years including a puppy and an older rescue. I honestly love dogs of all shapes and sizes and I will ensure I give your dog the perfect home away from home. I have experience with a variety of breeds and have also volunteered and received dogs trust training a couple years ago. I understand dogs are all different and I'm happy to support and match their routines to make them comfortable in my home. I also live in a perfect village area for dogs with plenty of public and private walks and dog friendly cafes! I have plenty of time for walks, toilet breaks and cuddles! I can fit my routine around the routine of the dog in my care, just reach out and let me know what's required. I have a fenced garden with bifold doors that can be left open for easy access to potter outside. I have experience with administering dogs with medication including oral, topical and injections. I also understand and recognise the importance of dog body language -when they are happy, distressed or anxious. Your dogs safety and happiness will always be my main priority.

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life. Having experience with a variety of breeds incl. Shar-Pei, Doberman Pincher, Jack Russell, Welsh Terrier, English Bulldog, Chihuahua and many Heinz 57 breeds. I understand that different breeds have different needs and I am particularly knowledgable around bull breeds and brachycephalic breeds. I am confident with all dogs, including reactive dogs and understand the importance of training and using a consistent approach. I have a genuine love of dogs and will provide a safe, loving environment that feels like home from home to them. You can be assured that your beloved pet will receive the highest quality of care and that all their needs will be met. I will provide regular updates, photos and videos. I am able to administer medication. Feel free to contact me with any questions. I am available to care for pets anytime between Friday evenings through to Monday evenings for boarding. I am also available for dog walks and dog sitting on any evening from 5pm to 11pm. I have a large fenced garden to keep your pet safe. I allow pets on the settees and the bed unless asked not to do so. I am happy to follow any instructions from the owner and can provide a crate if required. I tailor the walks to the needs of your pet and will use the commands that you instruct, to maintain consistency in training.

“Jordan was amazing, responded quickly and helpfully at short notice to accommodate our dogs. She did a pre-visit to make sure she understood exactly what was required. Sent photos during the visits. Kept me updated throughout. Also during the snow Jordan even walked from her house to ensure our dogs went out. Thank you again.”

“Arranged a couple of drop in visits at home for our bull terrier Daisy whilst we attended a wedding for the day. Emmie called in as planned and ensured Daisy had a couple of walks/toilet breaks and was fed. Kept in touch during the day and sent pics”

About: I currently have Leah & Jake, my 2 Border Collies. We're always out and about up on Saddleworth Moor having walkies... There's no better feeling than being outdoors with dogs.. I currently don't work, so I'm home all day now. Home sitting is available on Friday & Saturday nights. Unfortunately, I can't board pets due to my own dogs/cats/snakes etc My pets want for nothing. They are loved and cared for as family members. My cats and dogs have full roam of my house and also sleep on my bed if they want to.

“Antonia is wonderful. We had daily pictures and reports of our Milly and everyone shoes a very happy cat. We came home to her feeding area cleaned and organised and more importantly a cat who looked disappointed to see us and not Antonia! Highly recommend Antonia to anyone wanting their fur baby cared for.”
