“Joana is a wonderful lady who took care of my 11yr old German Shepherd. She made sure he had lots of walks, sent me pictures and spent quality time with him throughout, which I knew through her pictures and communication with me.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals from a young age and I’m very passionate about them, I took to volunteering at a dog hotel because I wanted to be in that environment and learn to care for them, and have been caring for peoples pets for a long time ! I’m currently on my summer break before my final year at university, however I have been taking care of peoples pets during my term times and always make time to ensure the animals feel love and cared for especially while their parents are away ! I have a small garden but easy access to grass areas and enriching walks if needed and have a lot of experience with caring for animals in their home or my own

“Ella was fantastic. She arrived on time and kept us updated with comms throughout our time away. The house was spotless when we got back. Our dog Nell clearly had a lovely time in her company! We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”


“Lauren was wonderful with our 16 month old cockapoo. He warmed to her right away and had a great day with her. Lauren shared regular updates, took him on a good walk and gave him lots of cuddles. Will definitely rebook! :)”


“Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girls whilst we were away. We received regular updates and pictures and it was clear the girls loved Clare and felt very comfortable in her company. Our house was left spotless too. We would definitely recommend Clare and would certainly use her again in the future. Thank you thank you thank you ☺️ x”


“Christie was great and would definitely recommend. She looked after our two 8 months old kittens for 3 days and stayed overnight 2 nights. They’re indoor cats and its the first time we have left them, so we were really nervous. Christie sent regular photos and videos of them playing and letting us know they were doing. Christie was great at communicating with me and really lovely too. 😻”


“Emma was great with my anxious doxie! She let him approach her at his own pace and allowed him to get comfortable with her scent and get to know her and as soon as he did he loved her and had a great time with her! She even managed to get him out in the rain which is a big deal! She’s patient and kind and would definitely book her again for another sit!”


“Allison was fantastic. She was brilliant at corresponding with us, very respectful and tidy, and patient with our fur baby. We came home to a happy dog which is the most important feedback. We would be happy to recommend her.”


About: As someone who has grown up surrounded by animals -dogs, cats, hamsters, and birds, I have a lifetime of hands-on experience in pet care. Since I was 11, friends and family have trusted me with their beloved pets, and I’ve always provided reliable, loving, and attentive care. While I adore all animals, I have a special place in my heart for energetic, playful pets who love to engage and explore. I’ve grown up with dachshunds (and still have the cutest wire-haired one in the family!) and now they’ve become a bit of a special interest for me 🐾 I am a part time waitress, with plenty of time on my hands. I am available 5-6 evenings each week, and spend the majority of my time at home, giving me plenty of time to spend with your lovely animals! Living right beside the riverside and multiple green spaces gives me plenty of opportunity for enriching walks, whilst the pet free home environment allows for a calm space for shy animals.

Ksenia K.
“Ksenia grew up with two very different dogs, one of them was a very capricious standard dachshund who didn’t tolerate much of children around him, but allowed Ksenia to be his guardian, and another dog - English working Coker spaniel- who demanded a lot of energy and taught Ksenia to be patient and be able to take a charge. Few years ago Ksenia got to know puppy wire-haired dachshund who has a very distinctive character but always would be happy to agree with Ksenia’s demands. There is also a ginger cat in Ksenia’s life, who is always happy to spend time on her lap. Ksenia understands complicity of human-animal relationships and can be trusted with any kind of animals.”
