“Hugo seems to have enjoyed his time with Clara and her little dog. Communication was easy and she was able to accommodate Hugo at short notice. Clara updated me on how he was doing during his stay. I would recommend.”


About: I grew up on a small holding, my family have always had dogs and I have been involved in the caring of our animals. I truly enjoy their company. I’ve dog sat regularly for three parson russell’s as well as other dogs and have helped with raising litters of puppies as well as caring for our elderly dogs. We have experience with nervous dogs or dogs that prefer to avoid other dogs. I have also spent some time working on a sheep farm so have some experience with working dogs. I work from home, as does my partner Ryan, so can be accommodating to your needs. Able to do longer dog walks before or after work but can take any day care dogs out for a short walk and play during the working day. Calendar generally up to date but do ask to check - my partner may be around to help, just drop me a message to ask :) We have a small but secure garden in Hove and live near the beach and Hove Park for walks. No other pets or children in the house. Non-smoking. Your pets safety and security will always be put first.

“Sophie certainly ‘went the extra mile’ including arriving by taxi as she knew I was booked on a flight from Gatwick on a Sunday and vulnerable to the uncertainties of the Southern Region! She looked after my much loved companion as if she were a queen, not just a part-Labrador mutt! I hope to be able to ask for Sophie next time I have to travel. Thanks.”


“Amazing sitter, very kind and patient with my teenage puppy and sent me loads of updates throughout his stay! Great communication with me and felt like a friendly place for my dog to stay.”


“Wonderful dog sitter. Monica took great care of Obi, and he came back a very happy boy. Great communication and we felt completely at ease. She also is very confident with our big dog which was reassuring for us.”


About: I have looked after all kinds of animals since I was a child. My grandparents were farmers so I have always had a great love of dogs cats cows chickens etc. I have had all ages of dogs from puppies to seniors and have experience with cats too. I do not have a job at the moment which would affect my times to walk dogs so I am free pretty much at anytime. I have a small back garden which my dogs and cats use. My own dogs and cats sleep on the sofa of course though they do have beds of their own!

“Daisy was clearly very relaxed in Megan’s company and settled quickly. I got lovely updates during the time I was away and Megan was very responsive and warm in her interactions. Will definitely be using her again 😊”


“Sophie really looked after Rolo. Sent me lots of updates and pictures whilst we were on holiday and really took care of him when he developed an upset stomach. We were late collecting Rolo due to unforeseen circumstances and Sophie was so kind and understanding. Thank you so much Sophie. Will definitely recommend Sophie and will rebook with Sophie again xx”


“Joely is wonderful, she stayed up with doggo whilst she settled on the first night. She sent photo updates of doggo having a blast and snuggles in silly ways. Doggo is chilled where she has obviously come back from her own relaxing holiday. Can't recommend Joely enough! Thank you Joely, you're a wonderful and caring human. Thank you for sharing your home with our fluffy family member.”


“Emma was really kind and accommodating for Bear our Labrador, Bear stayed with Emma whilst we were on short break, Bear was happy and relaxed throughout his stay and Emma kindly provided us updates and photos during his stay 😊”


“Birdy loves her time with Jenna. It’s like she is one of the family now and I trust her completely with my huge pup. She always asks if there’s any changes, anything she needs to know and sets my heart at rest. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend x”


About: I started caring for dogs with my family from a young age before getting our own dog at the age of 13. When I was 19 I took the plunge and got my own little happy boy who I would not be without. Your dog needs to get on with my dog (6 year old male cockapoo). I will only do weekday daycare if your dog is trained and happy to be left with my dog whilst I'm at work (I pop home for an hour at lunch). Mainly looking to fufill evening and weekend sittings. No cats. I work 8-5 weekdays but pop home for an hour at lunch. I have some Friday afternoons and Monday mornings off and work every other Saturday morning I have lots of toys and constant supply of water. Oli will make a great play mate for your doggy and he will love the company. I have a safely enclosed communal garden which only residents can access. We love big walks especially beach trips so your pooch will be well exercised! I drive so am happy to adventure and also pick up and drop off your dog.

“Our dog couldn’t have had a better time with Garry & Seb. They were thoughtful to send photos and videos, very easy to communicate with before and during the stay and clearly love dogs.”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. From dogs and cats to rabbits and lizards, I’ve always had a deep love and respect for our furry (and scaly) friends. Growing up, I spent the majority of my childhood in the puppy pen, helping out with litters and even assisting dogs through the birth process from the young age of five. I learnt early on how special the bond with animals can be. Now, as a preschool teacher, I get to share that passion with kids, teaching them how to love, care for, and respect animals the way I do. For the first time in my life, I’m living without a pet of my own, so I’m looking forward to treating your pet like part of the family while they’re with me. I’ve been to many training classes and have certainly seen it all, so I am comfortable with all types of personalities and behaviour quirks. Whether it’s a beautiful beach walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cosy cuddles, your pet will feel right at home here. I can’t wait to meet them and spoil them with all the love they so deserve! I am available for pet sitting Monday to Friday, with evening availability after 6 PM. Additionally, I offer boarding services for Friday and Saturday nights. On weekends, I’m free all day Saturday and Sunday, providing flexible options for your pet’s care. Feel free to reach out if you have specific scheduling needs, I’m happy to accommodate! Your pet will enjoy a peaceful, comfortable stay in my home, which is just a 2-minute walk from the beach and mere seconds away from a lush, grassy park. With no other pets or children in the building, the environment is quiet and calm, perfect for relaxing, playing, or exploring the beautiful surroundings. It’s a quiet space where your pet can feel right at home, with plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventures just a stone’s throw away.

“Zoe and Aidan are fantastic dog sitters, couldn’t recommend them highly enough! Obviously loved our 1 year old lab cross, great communication, will definitely be very happy to have our dog stay with them again”


“Sam and his partner looked after Nero beautifully, and he came back a happy settled little dog. Nero has a high level of separation anxiety and they always made sure he felt secure. It was obvious from what Sam and his partner said that they had really understood and enjoyed Nero and gave him lots of exercise and found other dogs for him to play with. We would certainly have no hesitation in booking him in with Sam again as Nero obviously loved him!”


“Wendy was the perfect choice. She was easy to communicate with and prompt in responding. Charlie had a lovely few days staying with Wendy and she sent regular updates, I would highly recommend and definitely use Wendy again for my next trip”


“Katy went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable leaving Milo with a sitter for the first time. She sent us pupdates and kept us at ease over the whole process. Milo came home the happiest dog, and we’re super grateful for how much love and attention Milo must have had 🥰”


“Pippa had a lovely time with Lydia . Great communication and great photos. Pippa even got a day trip to Lewes. Lucky pooch. Would definitely recommend”


“Fantastic stay for Tess with Valentina. Couldn't be happier with the service provided. Awesome videos of the great walks and fun times she had during her stay.. Would definitely use again. Many thanks.. Mike”

Jemima M.
“Jemima was born into a house with 2 cats who she loved and cuddled from a young age. These 2 were soon joined by a tank of various fish and then soon after that 3 rabbits. Jemima loved and helped care for them all. She even stepped in and looked after her siblings pets when they were busy! Jemima has loved and cared for the familys' black labrador for nearly 13 years and got her own dog 6 years ago who is very well loved and looked after. Any dog will enjoy every minute in Jemimas' care and every owner can relax knowing their precious family member is being well looked after.”
