House Sitting Kirklees

“Laura is amazing with both dogs and cats! We have zero concerns about them when she is with them and couldn't be more comfortable. We love her regular updates and pictures. Definitely recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Absolutely fantastic! Contacted Helena very last minute after being let down and she was amazing. My mum never gets to leave the house with her needy doggo but he didn’t even miss us one bit. My mum got to spend the day with her grandson who lives in London. Something she rarely gets to do. Brilliant sitter and all the updates put an anxious owner at massive ease. Thank you so much!”

“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.”

“Couldn’t fault Ellie at all. I have always been super anxious over leaving my 3 musketeers especially overnight and with the super hyperactive characters. They suffer with anxiety being left overnight and can be extremely boisterous at times. Ellie settled my nerves and anxiety to a tee. Kept me updated throughout her stay with pictures and messages on what they were getting up to. Would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely rebook with Ellie in the future. She had my dogs best interests at heart and understood my anxieties. 💯”

“Lou was fantastic with Narla. From the first message she was clear, friendly and great at communicating the whole way through.We felt completely at ease knowing Narla was in safe hands. Lou sent regular updates, which was really reassuring, and it was obvious that Narla was happy and well cared for. We could not have asked for a better experience and would happily book with her again.”

About: I have looked after a parents greyhound whilst they're away by walking and feeding him. I enjoy playing with him and giving him stokes and treats. I mostly work from home so can be flexible with times of going and visiting houses and pets. I can be free on weekends too. I mostly wouldn't be able to go Friday during the day as I work from the office l but I am free friday after 5pm. I can offer a calm space for a pet to feel at ease with a stranger. I enjoy them sitting with me on the sofa or in bed for some extra cuddle time.

“Irena sent us lots of photos while we were away and we could see that Gus was a happy dog! Thank you for looking after Gus. Everything looked well looked after on our return.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up with both dogs and cats in the family, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, from playful pups to independent or shy cats. I also studied animal care and husbandry at college, which gave me a great understanding of pet behaviour, safety, and wellbeing. I currently have two cats of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy and caring looking after your pets. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own ❤️ I'm a nurse at the local hospital so I usually have 3 or 4 days off a week, so plenty of time for feeding, playing, fighting, and cuddling the cats! And cleaning the litter tray ofc. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet and your home in someone else’s care. I only provide services in the owner’s home, helping your cat stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I’m reliable, tidy, and treat both your pet and home with the utmost respect, keeping you updated throughout.

“Ruby looked after my 2 staffies Ruby & Frank for the weekend. My dogs can be a handful at times, especially when playing together as one is getting older whilst the other still a puppy. Ruby met both my dogs prior to the house sitting weekend in my home. Both dogs took to her immediately and I loved the fact she instantly interacted with them. Frank the younger of my dogs especially took to her and didn't want her to leave. Ruby sent regular updates on how they were doing as they can fret a little and get anxiety when I'm not home, but they were perfectly fine and looked happy. It was lovely to see how Ruby is with dogs and you clearly see that she adores them. I will definitely be booking in the future with her.”

I can help with feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping routines consistent. I’m also mindful of body language and know how to respond calmly to keep pets happy and stress-free. I’m available on weekdays after 5:30pm and fully available on weekends. I’ll have plenty of time to give your pet attention, playtime, and care while keeping their routine consistent. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm and loving environment and pay close attention to their needs and body language. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away!

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life. Having experience with a variety of breeds incl. Shar-Pei, Doberman Pincher, Jack Russell, Welsh Terrier, English Bulldog, Chihuahua and many Heinz 57 breeds. I understand that different breeds have different needs and I am particularly knowledgable around bull breeds and brachycephalic breeds. I am confident with all dogs, including reactive dogs and understand the importance of training and using a consistent approach. I have a genuine love of dogs and will provide a safe, loving environment that feels like home from home to them. You can be assured that your beloved pet will receive the highest quality of care and that all their needs will be met. I will provide regular updates, photos and videos. I am able to administer medication. Feel free to contact me with any questions. I am available to care for pets anytime between Friday evenings through to Monday evenings for boarding. I am also available for dog walks and dog sitting on any evening from 5pm to 11pm. I have a large fenced garden to keep your pet safe. I allow pets on the settees and the bed unless asked not to do so. I am happy to follow any instructions from the owner and can provide a crate if required. I tailor the walks to the needs of your pet and will use the commands that you instruct, to maintain consistency in training.

“I can thoroughly recommend Chris as a dog sitter and walker following him sitting at our house looking after our dog and cat. Chris responded promptly when I first contacted him. We were trying to arrange quite short notice dog and cat sitting due to a previous arrangement breaking down. Despite this he was as able to work around our dates to be able to provide the care we needed. Our dog can be anxious and has a tendency to resource guard. Chris was excellent at arranging to visit our house to meet our dog to get an idea of his needs and accompanied mr on a walk with him. He then, also, arranged to take our dog out on his own, for a walk. This provided Chris and us with the confidence to go ahead with the sit. Chris provided daily updates (messages, photos and video) whilst we were away which was great feedback. I know our dog loved the care he received. Chris is engaging, thoughtful and caring of the animals he is looking after. His calm demeanour was great for both our pets and ourselves! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chris as a sitter and to ask him to sit again in future.”

About: I have started a business dog walking and pet sitting. Dogs are the best friends you could have! I have experience looking after dogs big and small and know how to cuddle on the sofa as well as run around the fields with high prey driven dogs. I have my own business pet sitting and dog walking, I will soon be starting a dog grooming course which will be one evening a week so I am very flexible with my availability. At home we have 2 cats, one is 8 and the other is 2. They both have different interests and needs and I know how to deal with them. I know how to adapt my routine to different animals having my own cats and looking after dogs during sits and walks.

“Such a lovely dog sitter and sent regular updates and photos. Kaia was well looked after and so relaxed when we got home. Thank you! We’ll definitely book with Courtney again in future.”

About: I've spent over a decade caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments — not just as a sitter, but as a true companion. From high-energy puppies to senior dogs with special needs, I understand their unique care requirements. You'll never wonder how your dog is doing. I provide regular photo updates, check-ins, and stay in close touch so you're always in the loop. Pet care is a meaningful and regular part of my weekly routine. I dedicate time each day for walks, feedings, litter box cleaning, and quality time with the animals I care for. I carefully plan my schedule to ensure I’m fully available for each pet — whether for daily check-ins, overnight stays, or weekend visits. Even with other responsibilities, pet care remains a top priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I follow detailed instructions regarding feeding, medications, walk schedules, and any special quirks or preferences. I respect the pet owner’s home, clean up after the pet (litter box, food area, accidents if any), and provide updates with photos or videos. My goal is for the pet to feel safe and relaxed in their own familiar space — and for you to feel confident while you're away.

“Paige was excellent with the dogs. They both were delighted when I returned home. I have no doubt that I will be using Paige on the future.”

“I’d highly recommend Jodie. She is super friendly, asks all the right questions and made us feel so at ease when she was looking after our cat. Jodie sent us plenty of updates and photos which gave us peace of mind whilst we were away which meant we could fully enjoy our trip. Our cat can be wary of new people but she loved Jodie straight away!”

About: From the age of around 11 I’ve looked after dogs and cats as well as Ferrets. I’ve also been around dogs my whole life and love to spend time getting to know new furry friends. I have a Mini Dachshund girl Penny and a Boy cat Stanley. Whilst both being very friendly and loving in harmony penny only really appreciates other dogs her size so we only take in small dogs for overnight stays/doggy day care with us. Walks - As for walks I am open to any dogs for this and I have a car for travel to appropriate walk destinations. Home Visits - I am able to visit any size or age pets within a 10 mile radius. The amount of times I visit and the length of visit will have to be negotiated upon booking. I am a very flexible person I do not have a 9-5 job I work for myself at home. My days consist of walking my own dog and having a lot of time in the garden playing with Penny. I have a fenced off garden that is located just off the back of a big field so it’s perfect for dog walks. I have one girl dog and one boy cat but as cats do he stays out of the way and is very dog friendly due to his sister being a dog. I am only able to accept crate trained pets for overnight services and a crate must accompany your pet on arrival as I do not have a spare unfortunately. I would appreciate a list if I was looking after your pet in your home so I can do exactly as you do.

About: I was brought up with dogs, numerous exotic pets and horses so I have a deep understanding of the level of commitment and care our pets need. My first pet was an English Bull Terrier called Levi who I was raised with form the ago of 2. I went from dressing him up and painting his nails to walking him in the fields everyday, he was truly my best friend. As he started to age and I was entering my teen years, we rescued Diesel, a staffy x pitbull, from an abusive home and made our home his forever home. My Dad taught me the fundamentals of training a pup, everything from pad training to recall. There was 4 of us in the house but the dogs were definitely mine and my Dad's. I think no matter what age a dog is, patience is key but everything comes from your tone and body language. (And of course, lots of cuddles!) I am also first aid trained in animal care which came from working alongside my Mum in an animal care centre college. I currently work Monday-friday 8am-4pm all around Huddersfield cleaning windows so I will be available evenings/nights(including house sitting)/weekends. I own and drive a vehicle so travel isn't an issue. I unfortunately can't bring your pet home with me because we have a cat and a big rescue romanian sheep dog but if needed, I own a 2 seater mini van so your pet has the choice of being passenger princess in the front with me or they can have the back to themselves in a crate. I'm a very open and honest person so your home will be safe in my hands if boarding. Im happy to provide references if you wish.

“Jessica was absolutely amazing with Scotty. She understood his needs and was able to make him calm and settled. He was given lots of treats and cuddles from her. Would absolutely recommend”
