“Alison was like an angel fallen from heaven. Our kitten is 19 years old and this is the first time we have left her alone for two weeks. We were afraid to take her to a cat daycare because we thought she would get depressed thinking that we had abandoned her after finding herself in a new environment and without her human protectors. Searching, searching we found this app and Alison. Upon reading the reviews we decided to take a chance and contact Alison. From the first moment she was very attentive, always willing to answer our questions. She even helped us to make the booking because this app is not very friendly haha. When Alison came to meet Mabrú, to our surprise the kitten began to purr as if she had known Alison all her life. Animal instinct always tells the truth! Seeing Mambru's (our kitten) reaction, we didn't hesitate a second longer and decided to hire Alison's services. Alison kept us up to date with what was happening with the kitten on each visit. She sent us photos constantly and she even took the time to send us videos. Thank you so much Alison! Thanks to you, Mambrú did not have to leave the environment that makes her feel safe and she did not feel alone either. We found Mambrú in perfect condition, even very happy, and that made us happy too. We will never be able to thank you enough.”
“Katie was so great with my dogs. Amos is a very nervous rescue but she knew all the right things to do and was so patient with him. Willow absolutely adored Katie and really enjoyed all her cuddles and playtime! Would definitely recommend Katie!”
“Brontë looked after both my cats again and I was just as happy as the first time. They are so well cared for at her flat, you can see how much she loves animals. She makes sure to provide updates and photos whilst they’re with her. I literally could not ask for a better person to look after Houdini and Wotsit, thank you!”
“Jade looked after my 2 cats very well. she gave me regular updates and contacted me as I asked if she had any queries. I was extremely impressed with the care and attention she gave and she left my house as I left it. I would not hesitate to ask for her services again. ?”
“Torrie was communicative right from the initial contact and kept me updated with daily messages about our two cats throughout the week we were away. The cats clearly thrived in her company! We came home to a clean, tidy house and, most importantly, two very happy cats. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
About: I have had/looked after animals my entire life, and have had a variety from cats and dogs to snakes and geckos. My love for them is intense and I can't wait you meet your furry best friends 😊 I currently have a beautiful little Yorkshire Terrier called Nim but have also looked after bigger dogs such as Mastiffs and Boxer dogs, so no big is too big nor too small. I'd ideally like to look after animals close to HD5 as I am a stay at home mum and would be bringing my son with me on the walks especially so I would only take on 1 - 2 dogs at a specific time. I look forward to hearing from you, and your fur babies, Antonia x
“Ellie has been fantastic with our two cats whilst we have been away. I am normally so uncomfortable leaving them but Ellie made that so much easier. We received daily updates and pictures throughout our time away. Will definitely be using Ellie again for our next visit! Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life now I care for them from house visits, walking, to day/night boarding nothing brings me more joy 🐾 I am home most of the day every day odd nip out to the shops and school run but other then that I am home Downstairs they will have run round house patio doors from living room to my secured fenced garden, I will stick to your routine as much as I can with the walks and feeding times ect.
“Savannah was great with communication before the drop in and made me feel much better about choosing to keep Biccy at home while I was away. She made sure to include photos and let me know how the drop in had been. I would definitely recommend Savannah and hopefully she'll let me book her again ?”
“Madison was a delight from the first intro visit to the last day of the hol and looked after our two cats superbly. Her communication throughout our time away was excellent, with daily updates on how our cats were getting on, photos and even videos. It's really clear Madison took the time and effort to get to know them and give them plenty of fuss and attention - not just pop a bit of food in their bowls. We've come home to two VERY happy cats and as a result, we wouldn't hesitate in recommending Madison to anyone 😁👍”
“Antonia is wonderful. We had daily pictures and reports of our Milly and everyone shoes a very happy cat. We came home to her feeding area cleaned and organised and more importantly a cat who looked disappointed to see us and not Antonia! Highly recommend Antonia to anyone wanting their fur baby cared for.”
“Irena is amazing! We have two cats, one friendly and another very shine. Since the first visit she was sharing pictures with the shiniest one at her arms. We were so surprised and happy with the connection. We can say that we find a cat enchantress!!! We are now more confident about trips once we have Irena.”
About: I've grown up with animals, especially dogs. Whether it was my grandparents' German Shepherd or my own Jack Russell, I have an affinity with animals. I'm currently studying part-time and work part-time so there's a bit of flexibility for dog walking but it depends on my shift pattern. I'm an early riser, so morning walks are absolutely fine! I work 3 days a week in Lindley Huddersfield – pet sitting would be suitable if on certain days they can be left alone. Unfortunately I can't care for pets in my own home. Not because I don't want to but it's a rented property in a listed building.
“Caleb came to look after my two dogs and he was amazing. Apollon and Minerva are very nervous around new people but still Caleb did his best to calm them down and did everything that was asked. Very professional!”
“Lois couldn’t have taken care of my 2 cats better! She kept me up to date with everything that was happening on each visit and asked if she wasn’t sure of anything which was really appreciated and made me feel reassured. Lois is totally trust worthy and left my house lovely and clean and tidy. I would definitely not hesitate to leave my cats in her care again in the future. Thank you Lois 😊”
“Blu was lovely and very accommodating about drop off and pick up time, great to communicate with and provided me of pictures of my little cat during his stay. Thank you again and highly recommend! :)”
About: I raised up an American Stafford shire puppy, she is 3 years old now. I teached her everything(her name, commands like sit, lay, wait etc...) Also, I wash her, cut her nails, give her necessery pills and lot of kisses. Before that I lived with a Jack Russell for 3 years. Other than, I sittered my friend animals so many times. I will do my best for your child is feelling save and loving until you come back. I am working as hybrit, however my working days can be variable. Please write couple of days advance notice, so I can give you more clear information. I will keep your child routine in her/him house until you get back. I will be her/him loving friend. We will be walking, running and playing together.
About: I have several years of experience caring for animals and have owned a range of pets over time. During university, I regularly provided pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for friends, neighbours, and local families, building a reputation as someone reliable and easy to trust. I’m confident caring for pets with different temperaments and routines, from energetic dogs needing regular exercise to more relaxed pets who benefit from calm, consistent care. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs and ensure they feel safe, settled, and well looked after. I am a qualified teacher by profession, currently taking some time out to focus on my health and to be a stay at home mum. This gives me flexibility and the ability to offer dependable, consistent care. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to follow specific routines and provide updates for peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible daily schedule as I’m currently a stay-at-home mum, which allows me to prioritise the pets in my care and work around their individual needs and routines. I am available throughout the day for visits, feeding, and companionship. The only fixed commitments I have are school drop-off and pick-up for my daughter, which are brief and planned around any bookings. Outside of those times, I am fully available and able to provide consistent, attentive care. I always aim to ensure pets feel settled, secure, and well looked after. I currently provide care in the pet owner’s home, as I believe pets are most comfortable in their own familiar environment and routine. I take care to follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any specific requirements. I understand the importance of consistency, especially for cats, and aim to keep their environment as calm and stress-free as possible. Safety is a top priority. I am very mindful of securing doors, windows, and any access points to ensure pets remain safe at all times, particularly for indoor cats or those who may be prone to escaping. When dog walking, I am attentive and aware of my surroundings, including other dogs, people, and environmental factors. I understand basic dog-walking etiquette and recognise early warning signs of stress or discomfort, allowing me to respond appropriately and keep walks safe and controlled. I treat every home with respect and ensure it is left clean and secure. I am also happy to provide updates and photos for reassurance while you are away, so you can feel confident your pet is being well cared for.

100% happy with the service received. Antonia visited my cat twice a day as promised. She sent photos everyday and I could see that my cat was happy and relaxed in his usual sleeping spots. Antonia also took care of opening and closing my curtains and making sure my house was secure. Highly recommend Antonia and would be happy to use her again.
A friendly and genuinely caring cat sitter. The initial meet-and-greet went really well and put me at ease straight away. They dropped in four times, kept me updated with logs after each visit, and made sure my cats were fed, played with, and well looked after. It was clear my cats were comfortable and happy. I’d happily recommend and use them again.
This was the first time I had left my cats in the care of a sitter, as well as the first time I had been gone for over a week (I was gone for 15 days), and I had just moved to the area less than 2 weeks before I took this trip, but Wai did a fantastic job, updated me with videos every day and made taking my trip less stressful, knowing my cats were being taken care of whilst I was away.
