Ayanna has been walking our Border Collie, Zeke, every Thursday and she has been great! Zeke is always very happy to see her and really enjoys their 1-hour walks together. He’ll usually sleep throughout the afternoon when he gets home. Ayanna has always been very responsive and takes lots of pictures and videos. I can highly recommend Ayanna!

About: What sets me apart is my 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs & cats of all ages and personalities. I started in Manchester and now that I’m in Kettering, I’m excited to meet and care for new friends in the area. I offer more than just sitting—I can help with basic training for young dogs & cats provide gentle and attentive care for senior pets, as well as grooming and regular walks. I’m confident handling different temperaments and always adapt to each dog’s and cats needs to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every dog& cat as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, patience, and care while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine as I’m home full-time, which means I can provide constant supervision, attention, and care. I’m available throughout the week and weekends, so pets are never left alone for long periods. I plan my day around their needs—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, training, or simply giving them companionship. Being at home allows me to be flexible and responsive, ensuring each pet gets the time, care, and attention they deserve I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets in my home. I have a secure fenced garden where dogs can play, exercise, and enjoy fresh air. Inside, there’s plenty of space for them to relax and feel at home. I also have two small, friendly dogs who are used to being around other pets, including cats, and they provide great companionship. I always supervise interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or a pet owner’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions so they feel settled and stress-free. My focus is always on making pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and caring for pets has been a big part of my life for many years. Over the past few years, I’ve gained hands-on experience pet sitting for families while they travel, including longer stays where I’m fully responsible for daily routines, feeding, walks, playtime and general wellbeing. I’ve looked after a variety of pets with different personalities and needs — from confident, energetic animals to more nervous or independent ones. I’m patient, calm and attentive, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine so they feel safe and settled in my care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure owners feel completely at ease while they’re away, with regular updates and photos if requested. At the moment, I have a very flexible schedule, which means I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. While I’m currently looking for a more permanent role in animal care, pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily routine and allows me to focus fully on looking after pets. I’m available throughout the day for feeding, walks, playtime, companionship and check ins, and I can easily adapt my schedule to suit each pet’s needs and routine. I always aim to provide a calm, safe and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in an owner’s home, I make sure routines are followed closely and that each pet’s individual needs and boundaries are respected. In my home, pets have a secure, relaxed space with access to a large garden for fresh air and play (always supervised and in line with owner instructions). I also live very close to a variety of walking routes, which means I can tailor walks to suit different energy levels - from short, gentle strolls to longer, more active walks. I have a friendly cat at home who spends much of their time outdoors or visiting a neighbour, so I’m mindful of introductions and always prioritise safety and comfort. I would only care for pets in my home if they are happy around cats and if owners are fully comfortable with the setup. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I treat the space with complete respect and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind.

About: My family has had alot of pets growing up and I was doing alot of there care before and after school. My mum would relied on me to bath our cat exspeionly with fleas as I know how to give a flea bath. I currently don't work or attend education just a few meetings every month so I have alot of free time to look after your little fur babies! With my current kittens I make sure no windows are open that they can get to and check where they are often so they don't get up to mischief and it will be no different with your fur babies.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. (I have two dogs at home who I love to bits) I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and providing calm, attentive companionship while owners are away. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone else, so I always make sure pet parents receive regular updates, photos, and peace of mind. Whether your dog loves long walks and active play or prefers quiet cuddles and routine, I adapt to each pet’s individual needs to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to details, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My goal is always to create an stress-free, fun, and loving experience for both pets and owners. I’m on a casual contract at work, and enjoy being Companied with other dogs, taking them on walks and giving them as much attention as they need and desire. I’m available Daily from Monday to Friday between 3-10pm and Saturday and Sunday between 8-11am and 4-10pm. A fully enclosed dog friendly garden. We live on a quiet estate, not close to main roads. Lots of field and country estate walks near by.

About: Hi, I’m Maria. My husband and I live in Hanwood Park, and together we offer a calm, loving, home-from-home environment where dogs and cats are truly treated as part of the family. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of many breeds and personalities — Schnauzers, Cocker Spaniels, Shih Tzus, Boxers, Lhasa Apsos, Weimaraners, and more — as well as cats. Over the years, friends and families have trusted me with their pets again and again, knowing they’ll be loved, understood, and cared for with patience and attention. What matters most to me is that every dog feels safe, relaxed, and emotionally settled while they’re with us. A Home Built on Trust, Not Just Care I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else — they’re family, not “just a pet.” That’s why I’ve always focused on building long-term trust and familiarity with the dogs I care for, rather than quick, one-off stays. Because my husband and I work as a team of two, your dog benefits from: 🐾Constant human presence 🐾Consistent routines 🐾A calm, stable home environment 🐾Never left alone for long periods 🐾Plenty of affection, cuddles, and gentle play 🐾Walks tailored to your dog’s routine and energy level 🐾Access to a garden for fresh air and relaxed time outdoors 🐾Care adapted to your dog’s personality — playful or quiet, young or senior 🐾Regular updates, photos, or videos if you’d like We especially love caring for dogs whose owners are looking for consistency and continuity — a familiar home they can return to whenever you travel, work, or need support. When a dog stays with us, they’re not just being looked after — they’re welcomed into our home and cared for with patience, kindness, and respect. If you’d like to arrange a meet & greet or ask any questions, I’d be very happy to hear from you. We look forward to welcoming your dog My husband and I both work from home, which means your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. We naturally build pet care into our daily routine, including walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding schedules, and quiet rest time. We’re available for boarding during weekdays, weekends, and longer stays, and we always aim to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. We provide a calm home environment with a secure garden, consistent routines, and lots of gentle attention and affection. Because there are two of us, pets are never left alone for long periods and always have someone nearby for reassurance and care. We take time to understand each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so they can feel settled, comfortable, and truly at home with us.

About: I have been involved in caring for dogs for over 35 yrs as a qualified veterinary nurse, manager of a boarding breeding and rehousing kennels and currently as a dog trainer and with my own dogs. I am confident to support with medication, look after nervous, anxious and even aggressive dogs. I am passionate about puppy foundations and safe exposure to a wide variety of experiences to ensure the best start equipping your dog to have confidence and life skills. Your requirements can be discussed if you do have a young dog or even a dog needing to gain some confidence eg a rehome. I can provide a safe, warm home environment for elderly dogs and can offer them time and my experience to ensure they settle in my home. Your pet can socialise with my dogs if this is beneficial but can also be kept separately if required. I have experience working with guide dogs and assistance dogs. My own dogs have been registered Pets As Therapy dogs and used to help individuals conquer dog phobias. Please get in touch to discuss how I might be able to help. 1:1 training opportunities also available by request. I work part time and can devote part and full days to looking after your pet. Pets can be walked once or twice a day with regular toilet breaks. I have a fully secure garden with direct access to local fields and footpaths for county walks. Dogs can be with my own dogs or kept separately if required. Whichever is more beneficial for your pet. I am happy to use crates but this is not a necessity. Dogs can sleep upstairs if required and are welcome on the sofa.

About: I have had my rescue dog since the age of 12 weeks. I originally adopted her whilst living in Australia and flew her back to the UK with me! I am HUGE on dog nutrition and well-being. I have taken the time to educate myself on the best type of diets and natural remedies to ensure my dog’s health is the best that it can possibly be! I have first-hand experience with dogs who suffer with extreme anxiety and understand that a blanket approach to this behaviour is NOT the answer. I make the conscious effort to understand all pooches and ensure that they feel safe with me. My own dog is extremely gentle in nature and well behaved. She is neutered and microchipped as well as being a graduate (top of the class) in obedience training. I work from home specifically so that I can provide round-the-clock support and love to my dog. During summer months, we aim for 3 walks a day and, whilst at home, she is constantly kept busy with tug-o-war matches and good old ‘fetch’! We have a beautiful garden where she spends her mornings sun worshipping and taking in the surrounding sounds of nature! All that’s missing is a furry friend for her to share this with! Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you might have to ensure that you’re wholly comfortable with allowing me to look after your fur baby! Neither my dog or I bite! 🥰 I work full time from home and rarely go out. If I ever do go out, Shahya goes to her well-loved dog sitter who lives not far from us. Alternatively, I take Shahya with me to wherever I go (she’s the main character in my life)! I have a big, fully fenced garden. The house is big and spacious enough for her to run around in. We have a huge field right on our doorstep that provides plenty of play time and other furry friends to engage with. There’s even a lake that runs through the field which Shahya often goes for a swim in! We have a downstairs bathroom that is specifically for dogs and so if your pooch does get a little mucky from playing outside, I’ll be happy to give them a warm shower to ensure their clean return to you! 😋😊

About: I am a compassionate, reliable, and experienced animal care professional with over 8 years of experience working as a Veterinary Nurse, alongside my current role as an Ambulance Clinician. Caring for others has always been at the heart of what I do, and animals have been a lifelong passion of mine. My veterinary background has given me extensive experience caring for animals of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, including those with medical needs, anxiety, or additional care requirements. I am confident administering medication, recognising signs of illness, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Working as an Ambulance Clinician has strengthened my calm, responsible, and trustworthy nature, especially in high-pressure situations. I understand how important it is for owners to know their pets are in safe hands, and I treat every animal with the same care and affection I would give my own. Whether it’s walks, feeding, overnight stays, playtime, or companionship, I provide attentive, personalised care and genuinely love building bonds with animals I currently work shifts as an ambulance clinician, when I schedule pet care it will not be during my working days. My days when I am providing pet care will revolve around the animals normal routine or as close as I can. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication (if required), and any special care instructions. I make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a secure space to rest, and plenty of attention, enrichment, and supervision. I have a fenced garden and have access to open fields with wooden fencing. When caring for pets in an owner's home, I respect the home and maintain the pet's usual routine to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress. I keep owners updated with regular messages, photos, and reports. Safety is my priority, so I monitor pets closely during walks, playtime, and interactions with other animals, and I follow all instructions regarding health, behavior, and emergency contacts

Tamsyn has been a dream and made our trip away amazing! Tamsyn has not looked after a pair of house rabbits before and she took everything in her stride. They are a messy pair, very demanding and Tamsyn did a perfect job. I have no hesitation in recommending her to look after any pet at all. Just fantastic and kept the kitchen so tidy and spotless with two very demanding rabbits. An amazing job and is highly recommended. Thank you so much Tamsyn xxxx

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and helped care for our two family pets — a loyal German Shepherd and a mixed breed who’s now 14 years old and still going strong! These experiences gave me a strong foundation in pet care, but it’s my own rescue pup, Theo, who’s truly taught me the meaning of patience, love, and connection. He’s full of character and reminds me daily how special every animal is. Whether it’s lively walks or calm companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I currently work part-time with flexible hours, so I’m mostly at home and able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just comforting company, I make sure pet care is a priority. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort come first. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, fresh water, and a consistent routine. I follow any instructions given carefully and keep communication open so you feel at ease. I understand the importance of building trust with animals and always give them the time and patience they need to feel secure and loved.
