“Annicka was brilliant, as always - she’s looked after our girl a number of times now. She’s very responsive and lovely to communicate with, and she takes the absolute best care of our cat, knowing all of her little quirks! We’d highly recommend, ”

About: Me and my partner Carlo have loved and looked after pets from a young age. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day and can easily follow your pet’s usual routine, including walks, playtime, and feeding schedules. Keeping pets comfortable and sticking to the routines they’re used to is really important to me. I love looking after both cats and dogs and providing a safe, calm space where they can relax while you’re away. I always aim to make pets feel at home and give them plenty of attention, care, and affection so their stay feels like a little holiday. I’ve had experience caring for both cats and dogs through having my own pets and looking after those of friends and family. I also cared for my senior cat for many years, so I’m very familiar with understanding cats’ individual personalities and needs. I’m calm, attentive, and always focused on making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after. I work from home and have flexible schedule that allows me to give regular walks and spend time with your pets throughout the day. I also live near good walking spots for dogs with plenty of space to run around I am happy to cuddle your pets, play with toys, give walks in the park near my home and provide any care necessary to the pet.
“Ada is fantastic, highly professional and wonderfully experienced with dogs. My energetic puppy can be quite a handful, but she cared for him brilliantly and kept me updated throughout. I felt completely reassured, and I would recommend Ada without hesitation.”

“Wow what can I say. It was a little daunting handing over my keys and placing Cassie and Perse in the care of someone I’d only met once before. I had no need to worry Sophie was amazing. I had regular daily updates and sooo many wonderful pictures. Sophie is a great communicator, warm, friendly and above all loves my cats. I highly recommend her.”

“Joana looked after Selva and Keira for a second time. The cats were very happy. Wonderful Joana is very reliable and caring and kept in touch with us so we had no worries about our pets at all and could really enjoy our trip. Thank you so much”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, growing up with both cats and dogs, so looking after pets has always come naturally to me. I now have a corgi of my own, so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I love playing with both dogs and cats, but I’m also happy to just keep them company and help them feel relaxed while you’re away. I work from home, which means your pet will have company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I always try to treat every pet like my own and pay attention to their individual needs and personality. I also have experience giving medication if needed, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe hands. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and regular walks. I already have a routine with my own dog, so adding another pet feels very natural. I’m able to be flexible with walks, feeding times, and any specific needs your pet has. Whether it’s a quick check-in, longer walks, or full-day care, I can adjust my schedule to make sure your pet is well looked after and not left alone for long. I have a fenced garden, so pets can enjoy safe outdoor time and toilet breaks. I make sure to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, and any special care instructions.
“Natali is a fantastic cat sitter. I felt so relaxed being away, with the care she gave my cats! She did all the basics plus played with them so they didn’t get bored. I got so many videos and photos and my cats clearly loved her.”


About: I have experienced many opportunities working with Animals from an animal hospital working towards treatment plans to support every animal get back on their paws, to more recently on a dairy farm along side my border collie who taught me a thing or two in return. I love animals and plan to continue working with them throughout my life. In Australia I was able to live and work there for 3 years through various pet sittings, and animal care, from seniors learning a new trick to potty training a 8 week old puppy I have loved every moment. I am a confident trainer able to teach both my dog and cat the same tricks using some healthy treats I make myself. I’ve recently returned home after travelling and working in Australia for 3 years I am catching up on some much needed time with my pets. I try to aim for 2 walks daily, plus enrichment tasks which leaves time for training in the evenings. Rest of the time we probably getting some cuddles in I have a fenced garden where my friendly dog and cat like to explore. My dog is very sociable and loves to make new friends. While my house is suitable for some indoor exercise, I live close by to many small and large fenced parks where I like to let my dog run around. I have experience with dogs with medical needs as well as working with anxious rescues. I can provide safety and love for all my animals

About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a kid - from German Sheppards to Golden Retrievers, Mastifs and Dachshunds. I am a huge dog lover and always making doggie friends everywhere I go! I rescued my own dachshund cross Shaden in Slovakia when I was 17 and moved to England with him.He was my best friend and at the age of 16 passed away last year. He was super cuddly and needy and high energy in his early years but calmed down a lot as he got older. He had a few special needs towards his senior years including daily medication, physio and hydrotherapy, a pram to get around due to his arthritis as well as a special home cooked diet due to his kidneys. I also have experience dog sitting anxious dogs as Shaden could get scared of loud noises and fireworks and I would often look after other rescues with anxiety. I also shared a house with a Mastif and 2 bulldogs for a number of years so have experience will all kinds of breeds and needs :). I absolutely adore dogs and cannot imagine my life without one! I am not quite ready to get my own dog just yet after Shaden but would love to have a buddy to take out and have some fun with while you are away! Please let me know and if your dogs are used to being in an office I can also take them in for longer stays and be flexible. I commute by train and it is about a 20min commute on the train and a 20min walk each side of the station. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays. I have just moved into my own house in Kingston recently so am home most weekends doing some gardening or exploring the local parks and area. During Tues-Thurs I work in a dog friendly office at Google (we have loads of doggos come in!!) and I come home around 3pm every day so can do afternoon or evening dog sits. Alternatively, if your doggo is social and you are happy for them to be in a dog friendly office I am more than happy to take them in! I can be flexible during the week and work from home if requested during the weekdays too - I just need a bit of notice for this :). I have my own fenced garden and am close to Richmond and Bushy park but also have a lot of lovely walks around me. I live on the ground floor so it is easily accessible for small dogs as well as I had planned to be here with my elderly sausage dog. Dogs are my buddies and I absolutely adore them so they are allowed on any and all furniture including the bed and sofa for extra snuggles :).

“Caroline was brilliant. She made us feel so comfortable in the way she interacted with Gizmo when she first met her (Gizmo can be rather grumpy!) and took such good care of her throughout. She sent us photos and videos at regular intervals, which really put our minds at rest, and even went above and beyond in dealing with a problem in our house. ”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for them is something that truly makes me happy. I grew up with four dogs and one cat, learning firsthand how much love, patience, and understanding each animal needs. I also spent several years cat-sitting for two cats, regularly brushing them, monitoring their health, and tending to any issues they had, always making sure they felt safe and comfortable. In my free time, I’m drawn to helping animals however I can. One of my most meaningful experiences was spending an entire day trying to rescue a lost, frightened dog roaming the streets. Moments like that reflect how deeply I care about animal wellbeing, especially when they’re scared or vulnerable. I believe every pet has their own unique personality, quirks, and needs, just like people. I genuinely love getting to know each animal individually and adapting my care to what makes them feel happiest and most secure. I’m currently a university student, and while my own pets are back home in Switzerland with my family, I miss caring for animals daily and would love to continue sharing that love and attention with your pets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my priority <3 As a university student with a very flexible course schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m generally available early mornings and evenings on weekdays, and I’m fully available on weekends. Because my schedule is adaptable, I’m happy to accommodate regular routines, last-minute needs, or longer visits when required. I always make a point to set aside dedicated time for each pet, not just for basic care, but also for play, mental stimulation, and companionship. I believe keeping pets engaged and active is just as important as walks and feeding, and I genuinely enjoy spending that quality time with them. I take safety, responsibility, and trust very seriously when caring for pets in someone else’s home or outdoors. I understand that every pet, and every household has its own rules, routines, and boundaries. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, whether that means specific walking habits, feeding routines, training rules, or areas of the home that are off-limits. I’m respectful of personal spaces and treat each home with care, cleanliness, and discretion. When outside, I stay alert and attentive at all times, prioritizing your pet’s safety and comfort while being mindful of their environment. I also pay close attention to behavior cues and body language, adjusting my approach to what helps each pet feel secure and relaxed. My goal is for pet owners to feel completely at ease knowing their pets, and their home, are being cared for responsibly, thoughtfully, and with genuine respect.
“Gabriella done drop in visits twice a day for my French bulldog chance and would highly recommend her to anyone and would have her back again. She kept in contact with me the whole time sending me pictures f chance and updates even got a cute valentines picture from her off him. Lovely women and will always book with her again when needed to. Thank you so much your the best xx”

“Samantha was so great with Bailey! Such a doll and sent me updates with pictures of him while I was traveling and my husband was at work. Really appreciate her efforts and patience with him. He had a lovely walk and really took to Sam well. Thank you so much for taking care of our boy!”

About: As lifelong dog lovers, my partner and I jump at every chance we get to spend time with our four-legged friends. While we're planning to get a pup of our own very soon, we currently spend our free time "borrowing" the dogs of friends and family to get our fix! We've previously owned dogs seperately, and have experience looking after all sorts of breeds (shih tzu, ridgeback/mastiff cross, cavabichon, english bulldog, boston terrier, cockerpoo, yorkshire terrier and many more), ranging from young puppies to senior dogs. We live in a quiet, dog-friendly apartment close to parks, pubs and plenty of dog-friendly spaces. Because it’s just the two of us at home, we offer a peaceful, stress-free environment for your dog where they're guaranteed ALL the attention. We're looking forward to lots of cuddles and adventures with your furry friend :) Larisa and Neve x We work 2 days a week from home with lots of time throughout our day to keep a furry friend company. Our daily routine could look like morning and lunch time walks, cuddles on the sofa and trips to local dog-friendly spots. Our weekends are full of plans where a dog would fit in perfectly, from trips to Bushy Park, Richmond Park and socialising in dog-friendly restaurants and spaces; we have a dog-shaped hole in our day to day! We have a ground floor apartment. Our local park is a 3 min walk away, we're a 1 min walk from the most dog-friendly pub around, and a short walk away from lots of dog-friendly spaces within Kingston. We have a small communal garden for your dog to do their deed on a lead and get a regular dose of fresh air. From overnight stays, to wandering walks, we're around to give as much love and affection as possible to your pup. We're able to make lots of room on the sofa and even have a dedicated dog armchair for your furry friend to chill with us.
“Ganna was lovely and professional with my girls - she made me feel very confident leaving her to check in on them! She wanted lots of information before hand which made me feel very settled and my girls loved her.”


About: I’m an 18-year-old animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets. I recently dog sat for two weeks, where I stayed in the owner’s home and cared for their senior dog full-time. This included feeding, walks, giving lots of attention, keeping to their routine, and making sure they were comfortable. I also have two cats of my own, so I’m very experienced with feeding, grooming, cleaning litter trays, and understanding different pet personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and love making pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, so I have flexible availability throughout the week for pet sitting, drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays depending on my shifts. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and can provide plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home by sticking to their usual routine. During my two week live in dog sitting experience, I cared for a senior dog by feeding them, walking them, giving medication when needed, and providing companionship. I’m respectful of owners’ homes and reliable.
“Thank you Trung for responding to my urgent drop-in visit request promptly. When I was aboard and realized I hadn't received notification from my pet camera for a while, I was in a panic. It was late night in London. Trung confirmed he could go in 20 minutes, and he arrived as promised. He quickly confirmed my cat's safety, and provided me with peace of mind. I highly recommend Trung for his responsiveness and reliability!”
“I’m so lucky to have found Georgiana! My pets and I loved her from the moment we met! She is super responsive, on time and keeping me in the loop with details and photos of my pets. Would recommend her to anyone and definitely book her again! Thank you so much for taking such great care of my pets!”


About: Hi everyone! After a recent move, I’m now available in Hampton Wick and the surrounding areas for all your dog care needs! 🐶 Before returning to the corporate world, I spent 3.5 years working in both outdoor (field-based) and indoor doggy daycares. Prior to that, I volunteered as a community dog walker with the Blue Cross charity. I’ve also grown up with family dogs, so I can safely say I'm confident and equipped in caring for and walking dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities...from energetic pups to the more chilled out senior citizen (dog!)🐾 Before booking- I’m happy to arrange a quick meet & greet beforehand to make sure you and your pup feel completely comfortable. Feel free to drop me a message to arrange. (Fun fact: 4 years later- I still look after one of my OG Rover dogs when needed 🥰) I currently work from the office 5 days a week, however my evening and weekends are always open to walking and caring for new fur friends. You will be updated with photos/ videos and messages while they are in my care so that you know exactly what your pooch is up to and can feel comfortable knowing they are in good hands and living their best lives.
About: Lifelong experience, living with and raising family pets . Big and small we have loved them all. Cuddles and walks galore your fur baby will never want for more I currently work just 2.5 hours a day, Monday to Friday, and I’m available 7 days a week — so I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. Whether it’s walk time for dogs or quiet companionship and playtime for cats, I’m home the rest of the day to keep them happy and comfortable. I can stick to your pet’s usual routine and provide lots of love, care, and company throughout the day. Pets in my care are treated like family. At home, we have a fully fenced garden for safe outdoor play and a cozy, calm indoor space where pets can relax. Our friendly French Bulldog loves company, and our two cats are dog-friendly and used to having other animals around. I always do slow, supervised introductions to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Whether your pet is staying with us or I’m caring for them in your home, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities — along with sticking to their usual routines and giving them lots of love and attention.

Ellie is an amazing and trustworthy pet sitter. She looked after our 2 kittens while we were away and she was genuinely loving and caring for them. She kept us updated with pictures and messages everyday and she kept their spaces clean and tidy. We would definitely recommend her to everyone. Thanks Ellie 💖🙏✨
Caroline was fantastic! She was very friendly and both of our cats took to her straight away—even Luna, who is usually very shy around strangers. Caroline was incredibly helpful, flexible, and accommodating to our needs. She was also able to administer medication to Set, which is always a challenge, and handled it with ease. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. She also helped look after our plants, which was much appreciated. We're extremely happy with the care Caroline provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!
Annie has looked after my cat Ladis, who is a suspicious boy and had been here just over a month, with patience Annie has gained his heart and catered for all his need while I was away for a long weekend, thank you Annie! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable cat sitter.

Raquel looked after our cat over 9 days, as twice daily drop in visits and was fantastic! From the initial briefing visit and then throughout she showed that she not only listened to us, but also understood our cat, and her likes/dislikes and needs. Great with her litter tray, communication with us and so clearly caring and thoughtful.
Ellie was fantastic with my dachshund Otis during the drop-in visits. The moment he met her for the first time, he instantly liked her, which immediately put me at ease. She is reliable, caring, and clearly great with dogs. I also got updates and photos, and Otis was happy and relaxed the whole time. I’d definitely recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. I will be booking again 😀

Cheryl did an amazing job. Really looked after out cats while we where away. She gave them great care and made sure they where looked after. I find it hard to trust people with my cats while I am away but she put my mind at ease. Very caring and sends updates daily. Really good with cats. I know now for the next time I have a caring person to look after my cats. She went above and beyond and done an amazing job. I recommend her 100%. Thank you
Alli has been absolutely amazing at looking after our Cat Cookie whilst we were away for 5 days.

Thank you so much Alli, Such a lovely personable Cat sitter who anyone can trust and rely on . Xx
Gill is an absolutely wonderful sitter and a really lovely person. She has always gone above and beyond to help me with my two cats. She always takes photos and videos and will always wait to see both cats so that I can be assured they are safe. I would recommend her in heartbeat she is so lovely
