“Gulsum is a wonderful dog minder and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She looked after my little Lola for a few days while we were away, and from start to finish she was lovely, responsive, and very punctual. She kept us regularly updated, which was incredibly reassuring and helped us relax knowing that Lola was happy, well cared for, and had settled in so nicely. It was clear that Lola was in safe, kind, and attentive hands. I would absolutely recommend Gulsum to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog minder.”

“I needed to find an emergency dog sitter and couldn't be happier that I found Julia. She was quick to respond to my request and to organise a meet and greet. My dog Sanya spent a week with her and I was sent lots of video and picture updates. I could see she was having the best time and was superbly looked after. Looking forward to using Julia again in the future!”

“Bianca was great with our puppy Roman, while we were away! She sent us regular photo update and kept him active and happy, especially helping him socialise with other dogs. Super responsive and clearly knows her way around dogs. Would definitely book her again!”

About: Hi! My name is Auxtine. I love dogs and a long walk! I’ve grown up with dogs (and cats!) and am a dog sitter for friends and family. I live in a flat in Angel with a large outdoor space, and a short walk away from multiple parks so your furry companion will always have loads of fun adventures. I have a flexible work where I can work from home if needed and tailor my schedule as needed around your dogs walk and food times I have a fenced outdoor space. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. I also live close to various parks so I can take them there for longer walks
“Every time Kira stays with Thais and Marina it’s an absolute joy for everyone involved. They are very attentive, always sending updates and pictures, and genuinely love her as if it were their own. Even baking bespoke cookies for her!! There’s no one I trust more to leave my dog with. Kira came back home yesterday and was crying because she was missing them! I think that says it all…”

“Eszter took such amazing care of my pup! It was obvious he had a lovely time. Eszter was very helpful, caring and prompt with all communication. I have already booked to repeat and would highly recommend!!”

“Adelina and her family took such incredible care of my dogs, Paco and Pepe, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the very beginning, she was kind, attentive, and genuinely loving toward them, it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, and I could clearly see how happy, relaxed, and comfortable Paco and Pepe were with her. It’s obvious that she has a natural connection with dogs and treats them with so much patience and care. I would trust her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pets as if they were her own 💗”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our dog Hermes while we were away on holiday. Angela was kind, reliable, and made sure Hermes got his medication every single day, which gave us great peace of mind. He looked happy and well when we came back, and it was clear he had been in loving hands. Angela has such a warm and caring energy — we’re truly grateful for the attention she gave him, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!”


“Christina was amazing! She had great communication, was diligent in taking care of my dog, sent lots of photos and when I picked him up I could tell that he fell in love with her!! I would recommend her in a heartbeat and look forward to continue working with her in the future!!”

“Our Pomeranian absolutely loved spending time with Aisling and her wonderful girls, and it meant we could fully relax and enjoy our holiday knowing he was so well looked after. Aisling was incredibly kind, kept us regularly informed, and took the most lovely, adorable photos of our dog 🥰 thank you million times!”

“Merve was amazing! It was our first time using Rover for a pet sitter, and although our pup can be fearful with strangers, Merve and her family made him feel completely at home. I felt at ease leaving Benji with them because I saw the care and patience they had in helping him settle in. Communication was great, and the photo updates very much appreciated. I highly recommend Merve and would absolutely book with her again.”

“Michelle took care of our bernedoodle for a week and she was amazing! She was so loving and caring with Yoki, making sure he was comfortable and keeping him active with plenty of walks and playtime. She also communicated really well throughout, sending photos and updates. Highly recommend!”

“Would highly recommend Rasthy. He made our dog feel at home and made sure he was well looked after. We were anxious about leaving him for over a week as this is the longest time he has been away from us. Rasthy made us feel less anxious with daily photos, videos and updates. Would definitely book a stay with Rasthy again.”

“Marnie had a very warm welcome! We were a bit worried as she was on some medication as she had a bad leg, but Talia and Josh were super supportive and so kind and lovely with her. Would highly recommend them, a safe and warm, loving home for a dog! Marnie didn’t want to come home when we picked her up she had such a great time! Xxx fully recommend”

“Julia is a wonderful dog sitter, very kind and welcoming! We felt completely reassured leaving Japette with her for two nights. We highly recommend her and would happily book with her again next time :)”

“Eliza has looked after our Bruce for 5 days. She's been great, very attentive, accomodating, and easy to communicate with. We've received many updates and pictures. Bruce was happy, comfortable and well looked after!”


“I could not recommend Marthe enough to take care of dogs. She's wonderful. Marthe looked after Bruno for two nights and he felt completely at easy, relaxed and very happy. He had a great time. Thank you so much Marthe! 🙏🌸”

“Arianna took our last minute request to look after Larry, and helped us out massively. Larry had a play companion and seemed very comfortable with her. Would highly recommend Arianna and will get in touch when in need for a dogsitter again :)”

“Leo was so great with our Nairi, and took excellent care of her while we were gone for a long weekend. Lamu is also incredibly sweet and chill and Nairi got along superbly with him. We were really happy knowing that she was going to stay with another dog for some extra company and comfort. We received lots of cute updates, which was so lovely and reassuring, and most of all, Leo was so accommodating and flexible. Our flight was delayed on the day we were flying home and Leo was so kind about watching her for a bit longer than initially planned. Would highly recommend Leo and Lamu to anyone!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you’re looking at Kevin and Tim’s profile and wondering why they don’t have as many reviews as some of the other sitters on this app, please don’t let that deter you. It is simply because they haven’t been on the app for as long. I can say with complete confidence that in six months’ time, their profile will be full of five-star reviews and I’m genuinely honoured to be one of the first people to leave one. Kevin and Tim were absolutely incredible with Engie. From the moment we met them, we felt completely comfortable leaving him in their care, and over the long weekend they went above and beyond in every possible way. They took him on several walks every day and constantly kept us updated with photos and videos, which we absolutely loved. They asked questions whenever they needed to rather than making assumptions, and it was obvious throughout his stay that they genuinely cared about him. Engie also tends not to eat very much when he’s away from us. When he wasn’t eating his dry food, Kevin and Tim contacted us and asked whether they could give him some chicken. After getting our permission, they actually went out of their way to boil chicken for him to encourage him to eat. That small example probably tells you everything you need to know about the level of care they gave him. They catered to everything he needed, kept us reassured throughout and treated Engie as though he were their own. So if the number of reviews is making you hesitate, honestly, don’t. You’re simply finding Kevin and Tim early. Give it six months and I have absolutely no doubt this page will be covered in five-star reviews from other dog owners saying exactly what I’m saying now. They are fantastic people, fantastic dog sitters, and we would leave Engie with them again in an absolute heartbeat. Thank you both for taking such incredible care of him. ❤️🐾

I have honoured to have Lina look after Zo. She and her better half helped us both feel at ease and when I left their place I was sure that my furry friend would be just fine. Lina sent me loads of updates, pictures and videos and Zo really did look happy. He was really calm and content and looked like he had received a lot of walks, exercise and most important of them all - tons of love and attention. Thank you Lina for looking after Zo! I will look to you again in the future for sure.

Naoko was absolutely wonderful - she went the extra mile to look after Pingu on our wedding weekend. He had a lovely time with her, she made sure his every need was catered for and sent us lots of photos and videos. He’s already looking forward to staying with her again!

Olivia was great with our 6 month pup. She sent frequent updates and BEC seemed really at home. I was worried about her settling in a new environment given this was her first time but after seeing all the photos and videos I felt at peace. BEC seemed to really enjoy herself. We would love for her to dog sit again.

Rachelle was absolutely amazing with Luna. She went above and beyond in so many ways, and it’s clear how much she genuinely loves dogs and takes the time to understand and cater to their individual needs. We honestly can’t thank her enough. Her communication was also fantastic, keeping us updated and completely reassured that Luna was happy and well cared for while we were away. We felt totally confident leaving Luna in her care and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Thank you so much, Rachelle!

Carrie and her partner took great care of Margo. It was the first time we've left her with someone since moving to the UK from the states and we're a bit nervous on how she'd do. Margo can be a bit shy but Carrie gave her space and patience and Margo came back relaxed and happier than ever. I will definitely leave Margo with Carrie again.

Fluffy really enjoyed his stay with Tamara ☺️ She was very accommodating, and we even met the day before to walk Fluffy together so he could get more comfortable with her. Tamara shared lots of pictures throughout his stay, and Fluffy looked so happy and relaxed. I would definitely recommend Tamara to everyone and would love for Fluffy to stay with her again! 🥰
