“David was helpful, friendly and professional. Our cat us extremely hostile to strangers and changes in routine, but she seemed to accept David's presence more quickly than usual. Highly recommended, and I'd happily have him look after Missy again.”


“Great cat sitter! I was away for a while and I needed someone to drop in to feed my two cats. Carrie was lovely and followed my every instruction, as well as provided a ton of photos and a summary of the drop in so that I knew my cats were being cared for. Would definitely recommend! Thank you!! :)”

About: Hi, I’m Kirsty! I’ve been brought up with animals my whole life — from German Shepherds to Chihuahuas, from cats to horses, parrots, rabbits, and everything in between! Myself and my little girls (3 & 4 years old) currently share our home with two dogs (a Corgi and a Scottie), two cats, and a very spoiled chinchilla. I ran my own pet sitting service throughout university and have cared for a wide range of pets, including large breeds like Dobermans and Akitas, and small ones like Yorkies and Chihuahuas. Whether they’re big or small, I treat every animal like one of my own. I offer a safe, loving environment where your pets can feel at home with lots of cuddles and attention — a little holiday of their own while you enjoy yours knowing your pets are being well taken care of. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I work half days during the week but have a flexible schedule and the ability to work from home, which means I can easily accommodate pet sitting and provide regular attention, exercise, and company throughout the day. Weekends are also available, and I make sure every pet in my care feels relaxed, safe, and truly at home. I provide a safe and comfortable home-from-home environment. My garden is fully fenced, giving dogs a secure space to run and play. Inside, they have free run of the house and can settle wherever they feel most at ease. If I need to pop out, dogs are safely secured in the living room. I also have both large and small crates available if preferred, so I can cater to individual needs and routines.

About: Hi, I’m Julie, I have been around animals as long as I can remember, from horses to goldfish!! I have great experience with elderly pets, my Persian cat Nallah lived until the age of 25! My little moggie Tootsie is 18 and thriving and my Staffy Belle is running around like a puppy at 14! I have done a lot of work for Staffy Rescue Scotland so have experience with nervous rescue dogs who need that little bit more reassurance to feel safe and secure with a new face. I have experience in house training both puppies and kittens and make sure this is a positive and rewarding time for them. I have a lot of love to give, your pet will be treated like one of my own. Kisses and cuddles a plenty. I enjoy taking my dog on scenic walks to Pucks Glen Dunoon, Johnshill Lochwinnoch and Glennifer Braes, my dog is very well trained and dog friendly. She has recently lost her Brother, Buster, so taking your fur baby for a walk with her would make her a very happy girl to have some company. I am currently not working so I can offer any hours you require. This may change once I go back to work, but I am hoping to fill my days looking after your much loved pets. I have a calm home. My dog Belle is very well trained and likes nothing better than to snooze in her bed after a long walk. Paws are always cleaned before we come back into the house or car and this will be the same if I am coming to your home. I will never leave a dog wet, if we are caught out in the rain they will be towel dried and then given a treat for being a good boy/girl.

About: I have 3 sausage dogs that I treat like my own babies. They get the best walks and snacks, and we love a snuggle under the blanket. I’m lucky that my husband and I work remotely and never need to leave them alone for too long. I decided that I can provide that reassurance to other dog owners, knowing that their pups are also safe and snug with someone while they’re away ❤️ I work remotely and choose my own hours, which is great for flexible pet care and managing a dog’s routine. If they have specific walk times, feeding times etc it’s no problem at all. I care for pets in their own home so that they’re always in a familiar space, surrounded by their own comforts. They get to keep their own bed! I’m also a qualified paramedic so I am comfortable with medication and additional needs.

About: Ever since I was younger I have helped walk and look after family and friends pets. Ive also helped to train some of these animals. Ive got an NC and a HNC in animal care. I'm also a RVN. I am confident in walking all sizes and breeds of dogs. I am also able to administer medications I work full time at a veterinary practice. I have Tuesdays, most Saturdays as well as all Sundays off. I can be quite flexible during weekends for doing both walks and visits. I may also be able to do some evenings. I am happy to try and work around my schedule. I will listen to the owners instructions and the needs for their pets. If house cats I will make sure they will be still in the home before I leave. For dogs I will cater walks to their needs and energy requirements.

About: I’m Lauren, aged 24. I have grown up with pet dogs and cats so have always been round animals from a young age. I unfortunately no longer own a pet where I am staying but would love to help out with some of your furry friends 😊. I absolutely love animals and have looked after several dogs and cats for friends and family multiple times before. I live near good walking trails and drive too so I have easy access to parks and other great walking places for your dogs. I currently choose my own shifts meaning much more time can be spent with your pets! I am currently studying at uni to be a paramedic 1/2 days per week but sometimes this is online which works better for pet care! I live at home with my dad. We don’t currently have any pets which means all the attention will be given to your babies! I do sometimes stay with my mum where we have 2x very friendly cats as shown in my photos, but any animal boarding/sitting etc will be done at home with my dad where there are no pets 😊

“Thanks Eve for looking after Molly. You have been fantastic and we will most definitely rebook. 5 stars! Thank you for sending the photos of Molly, we have been completely reassured whilst on holiday that Molly has been in good hands. X”


“Rachel looked after my cat for a couple of days and did a brilliant job of keeping her well fed and happy having sent photo updates with each visit and also spent time playing with her. Highly recommend trusting Rachel with your wee furry friend! 🤍”


About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of Dogs since I was young. Friends have used me to look after, walk, feed and spend time with their furry friends I am currently studying abroad but come back for the summer and holidays throughout the year. So when I come home this is a way that I can both earn so I can continue to study away from home We have a very large fenced off garden that they can go exploring in and 2 Dogs of our own to keep your furry friend busy and happy.

About: I have experience in caring for all types of animals and always treat clients pets as my own. I am comfortable with senior care including administering medicine. Pop in visits are carried out between 9.30 and 11.30am, 4.30pm and 7.30pm. Lunchtime visits available upon request. I am unable to provide specific times. I offer pet care in your home. I am unable to offer boarding care due to me having a large number of pets already and children.

About: I’ve had family dogs since I was about 6 years old. So most of my experience is looking after my own dogs. My dog growing up was a collie- mix that required lots of stimulation, walks and later in life a strict controlled diet and diabetes medication. I look after my mums dogs often and they are very demanding for attention, cuddles and walks. I was heavily involved with their initial toilet and crate training and in teaching basic skills like Paw and sit. I am involved with their ongoing training, also. My youngest dog also deals with dog reactivity and anxiety which I am well equipped with calming him down and helping him with this. I am strict with pee schedules, feeding schedules and walking/ playing schedules. I also am very fond of enrichment tasks for dogs. Basically I love animals and want to provide them with the best environment possible! Any animal in my care will be spoiled rotten as they deserve! So let me know their needs and I’ll take care of it! I work Freelance and hope to use this to generate income in between contracts and provide a little extra money when I have free time on evenings and weekends. I love animals and I love being outdoors regardless of the weather. I am known as the “strict mum” in our household because I take my animals safety very seriously. Our garden is secure. I only walk them on leads or in closed off parks. They get no access to human food and anything that could be of risk to an animal is either not in my home or out of reach/ locked away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life I love walking them cuddling them and going adventures with a fur baby, my family have dogs and I love to visit them my boyfriend has a dog and I’m always so happy to go around and see him he follows me like a lost puppy I love it. I’d provide an excellent service and ensure I meet all their needs take them to the beach our hill walking with me and get all the cuddles they could want and treats. Ensuring they are safe and well looked after with photo updates to ensure that your pet is happy. During my summer holidays and bank holidays I am free all the time and can spend all day with them, if during the week I work I live 5 minutes away and can take them out when I am on my lunch break. I also live by myself as well. I work full time in a nursery but live 5 mins walks away I’m free every weekend and on bank holidays and summer holidays as I have that time off so can take them out for adventures hikes runs and trips to the beach as I have 7 weeks free. I go runs or walks almost all the time in any weather and like to go to the beach. I have a spare room secure front door and a huge park 2 mins walk away from me my neighbours have friendly dogs and so does my boyfriend

About: I grew up around dogs all my life. I have lived with and cared for all different breeds, sizes and ages and have loved every minute. I currently have a 5 year old boxer named Jaffar, who is the perfect measure of a gentle giant and a friendly playmate. Jaffar is great around all dogs, he has shared his home with many and we have never had an issue. Jaffar will welcome any canine companions in to share his toys, sofa and bed (he hasn’t figured out the bed is to sleep in but he does use it as a pillow). While your pet is having its sleep over it will have full access to all rooms and furniture in the house as well as the back garden. If you have certain requirements for your pup during their or stay then I will actively seek to meet these to make this a home away from home. I can fit pet care in to my routine with as little or as much notice as possible. I have a flexible schedule at work and tend to put my dog first and fit my work around that. I can be flexible on taking care of someone’s pet either at my home or theirs. I would just like their pet to feel as at home as possible. I have a back garden with astroturf so this can be accessed in all weathers and various walking routes on my doorstep.

About: I have been fortunate to grow up around many different animals and I couldn’t imagine not having animals in my life. I regularly look after cats and dogs for friends and family while they are on holiday. I have experience with many different animals, for example I worked abroad teaching horse riding. I currently own a rescue dog who was nervous of people and dogs which has given me extensive knowledge with reactive dogs and I have completed training on this. I have had and currently have animals that require medication so I ensure all pet care requirements are met. Animals are my passion and I follow this up with different courses such as canine massage therapy. I want to help people provide the best care to their dogs and any others pets. I currently work full-time but have quite a lot of holidays from work throughout the year. I would be available after 5pm on weekdays and anytime weekends. If you require a different time please message as we may be able to arrange a time. As I have experience with reactive dogs I understand body language well and will ensure the safety of your dog when out on walks. I am happy to follow any rules or guidance you have when visiting your home and looking after your dog.

About: I understand each dog has individual needs and that these can change. There's always been a dearly loved dog under our roof from when I was born, and getting to care for them has been the biggest privilege of my life. Available in Glasgow City Centre throughout weekdays and in Helensburgh on weekends, feel free to get in touch and we'll see about getting something sorted - I am also available through the summer to provide pet care while you are on holiday As your pet's safety comes first, when we go on walks I can keep them on the lead the full time, or let them run about and play in open spaces like parks if they have reliable recall. When they're returned home they can be provided with anything else they need (getting dried off, or put in their crate, food etc)

Julie T.
“Julie has helped me care for my little lady Bella, she is an 8 year old lhasa apso who has recently been diagnosed with diabetes. Bella needs to be injected with insulin twice per day, 12 hours apart. Due to work commitments this can be difficult for me, but Julie has often made sure Bella has been fed, walked then jagged for me. She has a key to my house and Bella is always pleased to see her. When I come home Bella is calm and it is clear to see she has been pampered. Julie has even accompanied me to the vet with Bella when my car was off the road, she really puts the animals needs first and will do anything to help.”
