“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.”

“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 :)”

“Billy had a great time with Leo who sent regular pics of him on walks and chilling at home. Leo was very responsive and flexible. I couldn't have asked for more. Many thanks. Highly recommended.”

“We have had several bookings with Flor now, and have had a great experience each time. Good communication, lots of adorable photos, and our pup always seems to have had a great time - he did not want to leave!”

“Jennifer took Bessie at very short notice and was wonderful. She took great care of Bessie over the 4 nights and was in regular contact with me throughout so I knew Bessie was ok. Thank you Jennifer!!!”

“We’ve used Adelina twice now to watch our two dogs while we are away. She communicated well, was very careful with the dogs and sent us lovely photos. Would definitely recommend.”


“Lucy looked after our Milou for 5 days. During that time she communicated and sent us pictures everyday. Milou has eye sight problems and requires constant attention and care. Lucy was excellent at looking after her and very kind. I would certainly book her again.”

“Billie, my 3 year old cockapoo has just spent a fabulous weekend with Talia and Josh. She settled well. They have a lovely flat and Billie soon made herself at home. I will definitely use them again and can highly recommend them.”

“if we could give them 10 stars we would!! 🌟🐕 benny is SO excited to see them each time — which honestly melts our hearts 🥹💖 they clearly love what they do and it shines through in every interaction. we feel so lucky to have found them!!”

“We were so happy to find Eszter to look after our long haired Jack Russell Bella. It was so obvious that Ezster had been taking great care of her and giving her loads of love. I would recommend her for your doggy care for sure and it was lovely receiving pics throughout her stay. Bella came home happy, healthy and full of energy. Big thumbs up!”

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

“I am very happy with the service that Jackson provided. Communication was easy and efficient. My dog is very anxious and shy, received great care. She has even accepted treats that she rarely do with new people. I am glad Jackson looked after my dog, Cora. Thank you again!”

“I'm so happy with the level of care that Bianca gave to my small chihuahua puppy! I travelled for ten days, so I was in need of a professional and friendly dog sitter. Bianca made sure to supervise the dogs and put me at ease with daily pictures and videos. I was so grateful!! She had the best time with the other dogs and made new friends. I will definitely be using her daycare service again.”


“Marianna looked after my mini dachshund, Kevin, for the day and I couldn’t have been happier. She was warm, friendly, and made Kevin feel right at home. Her own standard dachshund, Chef, is an absolute sweetheart and they got on so well together. It was clear Kevin was well cared for, and I had complete peace of mind while he was with her. I’d happily book with Marianna again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”

“Very happy with our dog staying at Elise while we were on a holiday for a week, top service! Regular updates and photos/videos were provided on a daily basis. Our doggy looked very happy all the time. Will book again!”


About: I’ve been part of a family that has always had pets, so caring for animals has been a part of my life from a very young age. I grew up on a farm in New Zealand, surrounded by a wide range of animals including dogs, cats, horses, sheep, and Highland cows. This has given me plenty of hands-on experience understanding the different personalities and needs of all kinds of animals. As well as caring for my own pets, I’ve also looked after the pets of friends and family over the years. We have a running family joke that I’m the “animal whisperer” because I’ve always had a natural way of connecting with animals and helping them feel comfortable around me. I’m genuinely not biased towards cats or dog, I absolutely love both! Every pet is different, and I enjoy getting to know their unique personalities and routines. You can rest assured that your pet will be cared for with patience, kindness, and plenty of love. Whether they need lots of playtime, a quiet companion, or someone to stick to their usual routine, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I am currently working full time as a designer. I have the flexibility to work from home to care for animals, plus a pet friendly office space. If they needed to come to work with me. I live in a lovely ground floor flat in Islington that has lots of living room space. With a fenced outdoor area for fresh air. Lots of local parks in the area for walks.
“We had such a great experience with Megan. She looked after my dog with so much love and care, and I could tell he was really happy with her. She kept sending me pictures and updates all the time, which I really appreciated. Honestly, I absolutely loved the whole experience and will definitely book with her again. Megan is such a lovely person, and my dog absolutely adored her.”

“Olivia was fantastic with Bella! She helped us out massively, agreeing to take Bella on short notice when another booking fell through. She took her on plenty of walks and kept us regularly updated”

Great experience with Iris. She was very responsive, even on short notice, and communication was easy throughout. She gave clear directions to find her place, followed all the instructions for caring for my dog, and he came home happy and well looked after. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

This is not my first time with Megan as a sitter and it certainly won’t be the last! Megan took care of my dog Pepper while I was away on holiday and they had a grand time with her family over the long weekend—I really appreciated receiving updates while I was away and it’s clear my pup was extremely loved and well cared for. I would absolutely choose Megan as a sitter in the future and would highly recommend her ❤️

Absolutely 10/10 — couldn’t have asked for better! From the moment I dropped Prince off, I knew he was in the best hands. She didn’t just look after him — she made him part of her family straight away She sent lovely updates and photos so I never worried — and when I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had the best time! You can tell she genuinely adores dogs and treats every one like her own. I’m already booking her again — if you want someone who will love your dog like you do, this is the one! 💛

Koji has a real great time with Chris. Prior to the booking date we met and got to know Koji a lot better. He asked me a lot of questions and routines. We spoke about what is allowed for Koji to eat and what is a total no-no. He's provided him with lots of exercise, adoration, play and cuddles. Chris communicated really well via text/app and very flexible with small changes to timings which I truly appreciate. It was only for 2 nights stay but I will be coming back and using Chris' services again. I highly recommend him and he truly cares for the dogs.

Gina had the best time with Florencia and Matias! She warmed to them instantly, and we felt totally comfortable leaving her with them. Florencia sent regular photo/video updates (which we really appreciated), and it was obvious Gina was having a fun and affection-filled weekend. We will definitely ask if Gina can stay again. I can’t recommend highly enough - thank you!

Evelin is a great dog sitter- Margaux really seemed to be very happy with her and really well looked after. Evelin also sent me plenty of updates and photos so I felt reassured that she was in very good hands! Great communication and organisation too. I would highly recommend Evelin ☺️

Mateo and his wife were so lovely and took such great care of Bubba! They frequently went on walks, kept us up to date by sending messages and pictures and videos. They were super communicative and also very accommodating and kind. He was very understanding of Bubba’s schedule and adhered to it while he was staying with him. We will be booking with him again!

Julia was absolutely lovely and took such great care of Mochi. She was very attentive and responsible, and kept me updated regularly on how Mochi was doing, which I really appreciated. Mochi also really liked her and seemed very happy and comfortable staying with her. I would definitely recommend Julia and would be very happy to have her look after Mochi again! 🥰

Lizzy and Eduardo were great with Mochi, they kept us updated with photos and messages and it was clear that Mochi was well taken care of and had a great time with them. We also arranged a meet-up before and Lizzy was great; super attentive and helpful, and really put Mochi at ease straight away. I'd recommend Lizzy and Eduardo to anyone and can't wait to book again!

Alice was excellent and looked after our dog, Chloe superbly. Chloe is dog reactive and despite this, Alice and her partner managed to take Chloe on plenty of walks. Alice shared photos and updates of Chloe's stay and communicated drop-off and pick-up efficiently. Chloe was always super happy to return to their place - she would start wagging like crazy at the entrance! I would recommend Alice highly to others looking for a safe, cosy and fun retreat for their pup! :)

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog minder than Victoria! Whilst visiting London we found Victoria at the last minute to mind Rocco our cockapoo. From the moment we left Rocco with her, we knew he was in wonderful hands. He had an absolutely brilliant time with of lovely walks, plenty of ball play, cuddles and attention. Victoria kept us updated throughout and sent us lots of lovely photos, which was very reassuring. It was clear from the photos that he was having the time of his life and being treated like one of the family. He came home happy, relaxed and clearly very well looked after. Victoria is warm, caring, reliable and genuinely loves dogs, and we would have absolutely no hesitation in leaving him with her again. We highly recommend Victoria, she’s fantastic, and our dog would give her five stars too! 🐾❤️
