“Justina was amazing! Our dog Alfie has separation anxiety and is usually wary of strangers, but made him feel completely comfortable. She took great care of him and kept us updated.”

“Anuja was so responsive and absolutely wonderful with my dog, Romeo. She kept me updated, was caring and attentive, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Romeo was happy and well looked after, which means everything to me. I would highly recommend Anuja and will definitely be booking her again.”

“Kon was a caring, methodical dog whisperer with my one-year-old puppy when I had to go out of town for 36 hours. My puppy at first was not sure about this stranger, but in no time they were best friends. He was great in the questions he asked and his overall communication. I feel certain my dog is looking forward to the next time!”

“Dolo was fab! She took Mabel on a long walk, fed her and and kept me in the loop with lots of photos. Mabel was a very happy dog when we returned. Will definitely use again :)”

“Bonnie did a great job looking after Luna! It was a longer than usual day away for us at a friends wedding and we were So grateful for Bonnies support, luna seemed to really enjoy it, she landed up sleeping very well after all the fun! Thanks again for the help!”

“Leaving my puppy for the first time was stressful, but Lola put me at ease straight away. She adapted quickly, and my 5-month-old pup absolutely fell in love with her. She looked after Henry for 8 days, and I was amazed how happy and relaxed he was—he barely missed me! Lots of updates and photos too. Lola truly won both our hearts.”

They bonded well and she had such a way with him that he relaxed and had a great night's sleep. I would highly recommend Saffron and will definitely be using her again ❤️”


About: I've grown up with my gorgeous red cockapoo, Alfie, who was part of my family for the past 10 years, so I've always been around dogs. Over the final five years of his life, I took on much more responsibility for his daily care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure he's happy and well looked after as a senior dog. I also regularly help care for my boyfriend's two labradors, Leo and Luna, so I'm confident looking after larger, more energetic dogs too. During that time, I've also dog sat for neighbours, making sure their dogs stick to their usual routines with walks, meals, and plenty of attention while they're away. I'm reliable, patient, and just adore dogs!! Having just graduated last week from University, I am highly flexible, available across the summer and September to care for your dog. Therefore, I am able to prioritise pet care for when is most suitable for you. Your dog's safety and happiness are my priority. I'll keep them safely on lead unless instructed otherwise, make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention, and return them home happy and well looked-after.
“Ash was amazing with our very energetic golden retriever. From the moment Ash walked in, Holly was drawn to her — I haven’t seen her like that before. Ash was super communicative and sent continuous updates throughout the night. We will absolutely have Ash sit again. I hope she’ll be a regular for Holly moving forward.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Pet Care! Matt was absolutely fantastic looking after Luna! From the start, he was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Luna was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned — it was obvious she received lots of attention and affection. Matt kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter — highly recommend him and will definitely book again in the future!”

About: Hi I’m Joyce! I’m originally from Washington, DC and have several years of hands-on experience caring for animals through my volunteer work at local animal shelters in my home city. During this time, I’ve worked with pets of many breeds, sizes, and personalities, including animals with special medical or behavioral needs. I’m friendly, patient, and highly attentive, and I take the time to understand each pet’s routine and preferences. I’m comfortable administering medications, reinforcing training, teaching tricks, and providing structured, engaging walks and playtime. I currently work remotely for a nonprofit, which allows me flexibility and the ability to be fully present and responsive while caring for your pet. I treat every animal with the same care, respect, and affection I would give my own! Please let me know if you have any questions, special needs, or preferences for your pet and I am more than happy to accommodate :) Working from home allows me to incorporate pet care seamlessly into my routine. I can take breaks for walks, playtime, and feeding, ensuring your pets get plenty of attention throughout the day! I care for pets by ensuring their basic needs are met, including feeding, providing fresh water, and maintaining a clean environment. I also prioritize regular exercise through walks and playtime, offer mental stimulation with toys and training, and give plenty of affection and companionship. For client homes, I follow specific care instructions and maintain communication to ensure their pets feel comfortable and happy!
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and a dedicated cat owner, so I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely caring. My experience includes daily care routines, administering basic medications, supporting senior pets, and providing calm, gentle companionship for shy or anxious animals. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping pets’ routines consistent so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also take pride in keeping homes tidy and well-cared for, giving you peace of mind about both your pets and your space. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my weekly routine. I’m able to schedule visits around my shifts and make time for feeding, play, cleaning, and check-ins without rushing. My flexible hours allow me to give pets consistent attention and maintain their usual routines, whether that’s morning care, midday visits, or evening attention. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I follow all instructions carefully and keep their routine consistent so they feel safe and secure. I’m mindful about doors, windows, and any hazards, and I always double-check that pets are fed, comfortable, and in a clean environment. I keep the home tidy, respect your space, and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. In my own home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with safe play areas and close supervision, especially for young or curious cats. My priority is making sure every pet feels comfortable, protected, and well-cared for at all times.
About: I've been a dog owner myself for the past 15 years and in that time i’ve been sought out as a “go to” dog carer in the local community. I have a reputation now of being a bit of an unofficial dog walker in the Shoreditch area as I find very easy to engage with timid and shy dogs and help them socialize more with other dogs. I recently was congratulated by an owner of an 11 year old retired greyhound for making him fetch the ball for the first time since he was rescued 8 years ago! That was after only one encounter at the park. I am extremely patient and I find it very easy to understand different breed dog needs and make them enjoy their walks and play time. Im a freelance photographer so i can plan my work around any dog caring duties. I also enjoy taking long walks around the city with my greyhound and find it soothing and relaxing even if it is cold or rainy.For those reasons i think that a dog walking extra activity is a perfect fit for me at this time.I am responsible and caring and can provide many references if required. I can easily plan my day around any dog caring duties. Im also very active so moving around london and long walks are always a delight. Im also respectful and caring of any space so im a great choice for dog sitting also. I’ve had pets in this flat for 14 years so i have plenty of equipment for any moment and situation for the dog stay at the flat

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, from Chihuahuas and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to two Labradors. Looking after dogs has taught me that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs, so I always adapt my care to help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m offering dog walking and house sitting because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch or simply having someone calm and caring around while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after. I’m friendly, responsible and punctual, and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own and will always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I work remotely on my own hours, so I am highly flexible and can adhere to your pets schedule. I wake up early and am prompt, you can rely on me to be with you whenever needed. Your pets safety is my upmost priority and I will follow your instructions in how to care for your pet and your home. I am happy to remain in one part of your home if that makes you more comfortable, I am also happy to meet you and your pet prior to my service to ensure your pet’s trust and comfortability.
“Excellent service turned up early to receive instructions and was very enthusiastic. Was very understanding with the dog on a very hot day and willing to stay with the dog an extra half hour even though this was very late. Also gave the flat a good clean.”

“Natalie is very kind and was not only free - on christmas day booked a day earlier which was amazing for me to go out & enjoy. I would definitely recommend her to look after your pup as i came home to a happy well looked after puppy with updates during the evening.”

Anna was honestly one of the best sitters we’ve ever had for Eddie! 🐶❤️ From the beginning, she was very responsive, reliable, and easy to communicate with. While we were away, she regularly sent me updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Most importantly, Eddie absolutely loved her! He was constantly by her side and clearly felt very comfortable and safe with her, which means a lot to me. I also really appreciated how incredibly clean and tidy she kept our home. Everything was spotless and perfectly organised when we came back, which was such a lovely bonus. Anna is kind, professional, responsible, and clearly very experienced and caring with dogs. I felt completely comfortable having her look after Eddie and our home, and I would absolutely book her again. I’m very happy we found her and would highly recommend her! ✨

Saffron was amazing and looked after Marvin in a calm and gentle way. She administered his meds and took him on two walks which was great. They bonded well and she had such a way with him that he relaxed and had a great night's sleep. I would highly recommend Saffron and will definitely be using her again ❤️

My family and I are delighted to have chosen Serena to stay for a week at our home and look after Arrow, our dog. In addition to being a likeable person, Serena is very punctual, organised, and shared with us regular updates and photographs while we were away. She also took great care of our home. I would recommend her with no hesitation and look forward to having her looking after Arrow in the future.

Terrific experience with Eliza! I couldn't have dreamed a better sitter to take care of my baby while I was away for the weekend. Standard of care, friendliness, overall vibes, 10/10! And my kitty and Eliza clicked instantly. A very, very happy customer, already making another booking. Thank you so much!

Safa was great! One of the best cat sitters we have found on here. We got daily updates (with photos). Both Winnie and Ziggy were so comfortable with Safa. She is a gem that I am so glad we found. It was so nice to have the cats relaxed when we got home from such a long trip, and knowing they were in good hands.

Mio was fantastic. Our cat was totally happy (as shown by copious photos and videos which she sent daily) throughout her stay. The house was immaculate when we returned as well. Totally to be recommended and we would definitely ask her again if she's prepared to consider it! Well done Mio and thank you so much again.
Sarah is very friendly and reliable and our dog loved her. She clearly has an affinity with dogs, asked all the right questions about him and we felt good about leaving him with such a trustworthy person. She kept in contact and sent us photos, which is always reassuring. We’ll definitely be requesting Sarah’s services again.

My puppy immediately connected with Sema and, on my return, was playful but not manic. Sema gave me feedback on her behaviour and pointed out some areas to watch, which I appreciated. Sema spent the weekend following our routine. She took time to hand-feed when she was reluctant to eat. She is not a big eater generally. Highly recommend and look forward to rebooking.
