“Ayanna was absolutely amazing with our two dogs, doing drop ins and walks whilst we were away. She went above and beyond, sending lots of pictures, videos and even mopped to help with any overnight accidents. We are so grateful and will definitely book again, thank you!!”
“Helen was great. My pooch seemed happy and well when I got home after a long day at work. Helen even put one of our escaped hens away - going above and beyond the dog walks we'd asked her to do. I'll definitely book Helen again 😊”
“Thank you Grace so much for walking Dakota this week. Well not just walking her but even trying to train her a little bit. Really appreciate the effort and communication you put in. She was waiting by the door for you this morning.”
“Donna-Lee is very experienced with working with dogs and has an air of authority that definitely caught my husky Zelda's attention! Zelda is typically a laid back and happy girl but can pull when she's excited or fidget when waiting to cross the road. When Donna-Lee and I did our meet and greet I was given some complimentary pointers on how to better manage her as a new dog owner, which have definitely helped! I feel very comfortable leaving Zelda with her. ☺️”
“Aurelia was amazing with Sherlock when she came for a little meet and greet before their walk. Then for the walk she was right on time and we had a happy pup when we got home! We'll definitely book with Aurelia again :)”
“Danii was excellent from start to finish. She instantly bonded with our puppy when she first met him and kept us constantly reassured throughout the visits and walks. We will definitely be using her services again, as she immediately made us feel comfortable and confident in leaving our dog in her care.”

I only go out to work two mornings a week - a Monday and a Saturday. The rest of the time I work from home My garden is a good size and is securely fenced in. I promise that your pets will be safe with me. I am very trustworthy.

About: DBS checked. Doggy first Aid trained. History of being a Dog walker /Pet sitter in the Rutland Area for many years. I have had my own family pets since I was a young child and can look after nearly any pet. I have previously looked after small-holdings which included animals such as Pigs, chickens, horses, goats etc. I am a shift worker, i do most of this pet care around my full time job so usually update my availability around days off. If required on other days I will try to see if I am able to assist as best I can :-) Regular walks, toilet breaks. Never left alone for more than 4hours. Meals twice a day morning and evening. Regular stimulants - pre-agreed with dog owner. Arrangement of toys and play if the dog enjoys this.
“Millie has looked after our two dogs while we were away. We could not have found anyone else better as Millie has been very punctual and looked after our dogs very well. We will use Millie's services again with no hesitation.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 12 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I’ve looked after family pets, volunteered at a local shelter walking dogs, and even trained my own pup in agility and tricks. I recently cared for my senior dog through kidney disease, so I understand the special attention older dogs need. Pet safety is a top priority, and I treat every dog like my own with love, care, and lots of fuss. I’ll never leave your dog unattended unless you’re comfortable with it, and I always cater to each dog’s unique needs. Let me know if your dog has any special requirements or quirks. I’m here to help them feel safe and happy! 😊 I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays, and I’m also available on weekends so I’m home and fully present to give your pet lots of attention, regular walks, toilet breaks, and playtime. Your dog will be treated like one of my own, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away! I live in a home with a secure, fenced garden so there’s no need to worry about your pup trying to escape. There are plenty of lovely walking spots nearby, and I also have access to a fully enclosed field where dogs can enjoy safe, off-lead playtime—only if you’re comfortable with that, of course!

About: Since a young age I have grown up taking care of cats and dogs. My huge passion for animals led me to my first job working as a Veterinary Assistant & Receptionist at Vets4Pets, so I'm well seasoned when it comes to taking good care of four legged friends. I’m responsible and confident with administering medication, grooming and prepared for any situation as I have seen and learned a lot during my time at Vets4Pets. Since then, I have switched careers to corporate but I still share a huge love for looking after pets and have my own goofball at home, a ragdoll kitten called Moose. I was also a proud dog mum to my husky Tibbs (until he sadly went over the rainbow bridge last year at the age of 13). Having a ragdoll and a husky, I am no stranger to looking after very high maintenance and dramatic pets so you can feel safe in the knowledge that your fur babies will be thoroughly spoilt in my care! I work remotely so I'm at home majority of the day and have plenty of time to take good care of your four legged friends and spoil them with lots of walkies, play time and cuddles. Pets are welcome anywhere in my home and can snuggle up on furniture and on the bed with me for plenty of cuddles. I also have a large fenced garden and plenty of room to run around and play. I also know from my own experience just how tough it can be to leave your precious fur babies in someone else's care when you go away, which is why I will always send you lots of regular photos and updates during the whole time they are in my care so you never have to worry or wonder if they are okay!

“Kimberley was very communicative and attentive to Zelda's needs! I recieved a thorough summary of their walk together. I could tell Zelda was at ease in all the pictures sent. She's a big girl who needs a fair bit of exercise, and it seems Kimberley was able to give her just that! When I got home from work, she settled down and napped by my feet very quickly, as she always does when she's been well walked. I'm very happy, and will definitely be looking to have Kimberley look after my dog in the future!”

Gemma C.
“Gemma has always had a special connection lHer love for them goes beyond just affection, it’s part of who she is. Whether it’s a tiny rescue pup or an aging golden retriever, Gemma sees each dog as unique, deserving of love, patience, and understanding. Her caring nature shines in everything she does. She’s the kind of person who slows down on a walk to help a stray, who remembers the names and quirks of every dog in the neighborhood, and who always carries an extra treat or two in her pocket just in case. Gemma volunteed at a local animal shelter, where she’s known not only for her reliability but for the way nervous or scared dogs seem to calm down as soon as she’s near. She speaks softly to them, moves slowly, and lets them come to her when they are ready. To Gemma, love is in the little things like a gentle touch, a kind word, a walk in the park with a dog who needed a friend. And in return, the world around her, furry or otherwise, always seems a little softer. An owner will feel assured their dog will be safe, care for and loved in Gemma’s care.”
Linda S.
“Having never used Rover before, I was apprehensive about trusting my dog with someone, but Linda put me totally at ease. She has loads of experience with dogs and took note of all Teddy’s needs. She sent me regular texts and photos to reassure me and Teddy seemed to have a great time! Would 100% recommend Linda to anyone looking for dog sitting.”
Julie V.

Lina S.
“Incredible Care for Diesel! Lina has been an absolute godsend for me and Diesel, my German Shepherd. Leaving Diesel, a cautious rescue, used to be a worry, but Lina changed everything. She's looked after him for walks, long weekends, and even a full week – and he absolutely adores her! Lina's communication is fantastic; I always received reassuring updates and videos of a happy Diesel. Her background as a vet assistant shines through in her knowledgeable and responsible care. She's truly gone above and beyond, even coming early to help Diesel settle in. Seeing how comfortable and joyful he is with her has completely put my mind at ease. I wholeheartedly recommend Lina. If you want someone who treats your dog with genuine love, respect, and expert attention, she's simply the best!”
