“Joana did a great job of looking after our cat and dog while we were away for the week. She visited in advance to meet them both. Communication was fantastic with lots of updates and photos, so we were always confident that they were both being looked after. The house was also well looked after. I would not hesitate to book her again.”

“Amelia was fantastic with our fur baby, Brodie. First of all, she was excellent at communicating with us from our initial enquiry through to the end of her pet sitting with Brodie. She sent lots of photos, followed instructions perfectly, wasn’t phased by potential rain and managed to get in a nice long walk with Brodie, and again communicated really well. We will definitely call on her again!”

“Thomas took wonderful care of our dog, Luka. He kept us regularly updated with messages and photos, which really put our minds at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our holiday. It was clear that Luka was in very good hands. If we have the opportunity in the future, we would absolutely love to ask Thomas to look after Luka again. Highly recommended.”

“We are so happy to have had Isabella taking care of our dog and cat. They were happy, calm and content when we arrived home again. I appreciated the regular updates while we were away. Isabella agreed to meet the pets ahead of time to get to know them which put us at ease. We also found our house nest and tidy after her stay. We will definitely be using Isabella's services again.”

“Xiangyi looked after our kitten for 3 days whilst we were on holiday. It was the first time we had left her so we were a bit anxious about doing so. But Xiangyi was great with her and kept us updated so we knew she was happy, being played with, and eating and drinking. It made our trip much more relaxing knowing she was in such good hands and we will definitely be using Xiangyi again when we go away.”

“Hollie did an excellent job looking after my dog. She was very communicative, reliable and flexible throughout the whole process, sending me updates and pictures, not to mention my dog adores her. I came home to a happy dog and a home well taken care of. Can recommend, and would definitely book again in the future!”
“Excellent experience with Charlie and her partner! My dog was perfectly looked after, they were kind, professional and communicated very well, with prompt responses. I was kept updated during the sit with photo updates. I will definitely be asking for their help again. Thank you!”

“Beau has been amazing and I would highly recommend. Our dog Dottie was loved and cared for so well whilst we were away. Beau sent us regular updates so we could see how much fun Dottie was having and how relaxed she was. Beau looked after Dottie in our home and we came back to an immaculate house and a very happy Dottie 😊. Massive thank you again to Beau 😊”

“Sam is a great guy. He's 100% reliable and trustworthy and was brilliant with my Cavapoo puppy 'Noodle'. Sam is really calm and reassuring and Noodle took to him straight away. It made me feel confident that Noodle was in very safe hands. I had a problem getting cover for one of the days I was away and Sam stepped in and saved the day. I will definitely be booking Sam again 😀”


About: I’m a reliable, calm and attentive sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well looked after while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and temperaments, from energetic young pets that need patience and consistency, to senior pets that require a gentler, more attentive approach. I’m confident sticking to routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement and administering basic medication if needed. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give. I take the time to build trust with each animal, understand their personality and create a calm environment where they feel relaxed and secure. I’m also extremely clean, respectful and dependable, so owners can feel confident both their pets and home are in safe hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, consistency and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks, playtime and keeping to feeding schedules are something I’m happy to prioritise. I’m also organised and flexible, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s individual routine and needs. I always prioritise creating a safe, calm and familiar environment for pets, whether I’m in my own home or caring for them in theirs. I follow the owner’s instructions closely so their routine stays consistent, including feeding, walks, medication and any specific care needs. In a pet owner’s home, I treat the space with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I make sure doors, gates and windows are properly secured and that pets are never put in risky situations on walks or during play. I take time to build trust with each pet, moving at their pace and paying close attention to their behaviour so I can respond to their needs properly. My goal is always to keep them relaxed, safe and comfortable while their owner is away.
“Lexi was really communicative and looked after Luis and the house really well. He seemed happy when we returned and his feeder was filled and used properly. The house was also left clean and tidy. We’d love to have Lexi look after Luis again soon. Thank you!”

“Siobhan kindly watched our dog over the Christmas holidays while we visited family abroad and we are so grateful! As always, Archie was well cared for and very happy. We received regular updates and our house was very clean when we returned home. We have known Siobhan for years and she is highly recommended!”


“Thank you Charlie & Siobhan! Jasper seemed to have a lovely time, and will be very excited to see you next time. We received photos & updates throughout the stay which was reassuring.”

“Thank you Jessica! Helping out at such short notice and taking brilliant care of Otis, who turned out to not be very well but seemed very happy and content when I got home. Very professional and great service xxxx”

About: I adore dogs of all shapes and sizes & I have looked after my friend’s Labrador, Cookie. I know about safe and unsafe leash habits and which treats to help them avoid and I'm observant as to when to offer cuddles or to give some space. Very keen to form a bond :) As a stay-at-home parent, I'm very flexible and free most days as I work part-time from home. So unless I’m away, I can usually do both weekdays and/or weekends :) Keen to meet local pet owners to lend a helping hand. I’m a 10-minute walk from Richmond Park! Perfect for longer adventures, where I always ensure any dog is on a leash (unless permitted to be let off.)

About: Hi! I’m Beatriz, child psychologist. I love cats, back home I have 3 that live with my parents. I have plenty experience being around cats, taking care of them and loving them. I love being around cats, accompanying them and playing with them. Im responsible and trustworthy, would take care of your little loved ones like they are my own.

Ryan “RT” stayed for 2 nights in our house and looked after our 2 cats, Eric and Hattie. He handled complexities in feeding and medications with ease, and stayed in touch/sent photos via Whatssapp. Both we, and the cats warmed to him immediately and we hope he can cat sit for us again in the future 😊.

Scott and Sarah did a great job looking after our two cocker spaniels while we were on holiday! They also sent us regular updates and pictures, so we were able to enjoy our trip knowing the boys were being very well looked after! We would definitely recommend them to anyone else looking for someone to look after their pets.

Xiangyi looked after our kitten for 3 days whilst we were on holiday. It was the first time we had left her so we were a bit anxious about doing so. But Xiangyi was great with her and kept us updated so we knew she was happy, being played with, and eating and drinking. It made our trip much more relaxing knowing she was in such good hands and we will definitely be using Xiangyi again when we go away.

Kelsey looked after our pup for a week whilst we were on holiday. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough, she is such a lovely person and took such good care of Winnie and our home whilst we were away. We received daily updates, and returned to an immaculate house and very happy dog. Wouldn’t hesitate to book Kelsey again.
Scarlett was a perfect sitter. She was prompt , friendly and obviously loves dogs. Reggie was very happy and went on many walks, which Scarlett updated us with doggy photos. Scarlett stayed in our house which she also looked after perfectly. I would have no hesitation to recommend her and will be booking her again.

Nick was really wonderful with our Vizsla, Otto. Nick stayed overnight and sent us regular updates on how everything was going. As we weren’t going to be around to meet Nick during the overnight stay he even popped in beforehand to meet us and run through everything. The house was lovely and tidy and Nick even stripped the bed and put the washing in the machine. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Nick to help out with any type of dog walking or sitting.

Dominika was fantastic, she was really good for Billy, gentle and understanding. Helped with pick up and drop off. Billy is a sweet and shy dog with separation anxiety, Dominika was great with him he obviously has a wonderful time. We got updates throughout the day and he looked very comfy. Thanks again, was very relaxing to know that Billy was in safe hands

My furrbabies are completely in love with Hollie - she is calm and grounded with them - which is really important as she’s look ling after our daschie who is 2 weeks post spinal surgery. We are looking forward to having her care for them so much more going forward.

Ellie was kind enough to come and look after Zeus for the second time. She’s very reliable and Zeus seems to enjoy her company a lot. Glad we found someone we can trust with Zeus. It’s such a relief and peace of mind to know he’s being looked after while we’re out. I would 100% recommend Ellie, she’s nice, kind and most importantly wonderful with Zeus.

Ella is a lovely lady, she is experienced, caring and attentive. The girls had a wonderful day! I felt the girls were safe and very well cared for. Messages were always responded to quickly which made arranging everything very easy. I definitely recommend Ella.

I would highly recommend Nadine! She was absolutely fantastic. Extremely good communication and Teddy absolutely loved his time with her. Our flat was immaculate when we got home and Teddy was very happy and content 🥰 if you have the opportunity for Nadine to look after your fur child, I encourage you to say yes!!
