About: I provided care with love as I connect better with furry friends. I have been pet sitting for family and friends for many years, 2 hours minimum slots available I work part time mostly from home, so never to far from home, there is always someone at home, I have my own dogs, don’t mind caring at your home. Safe area for each pet, no more than 2 guests at a time for quality of service, I live near a field so plenty of exercise options

“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.”


About: Building a bond with a canine that is based on mutual trust, and developes organically, is the core of a lasting relationship. Having studied canine care, behaviour and welfare provides me with a better understanding of the dogs I look after. I am currently working with canines full time and have availability throughout the week. Please share your requirements and I will make every effort to accommodate. Every canine I look after, I require a meet and greet so I can understand your needs and your canine companion(s). Knowing their daily routines, dietary and medical requirements ensures they are looked after while in my care. I provide daily reports on their socialisation skills, scenting habits and their toileting breaks. I do like to take photos and share them with the owner giving them the opportunity to create memories of their family pet.

“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.”


About: I have taken care of dogs in my family home for as long as I can remember, I dont see them as a pet they are a member of the family, my current dog Theo is my fur baby and my partners dog Fly has become his sister. I have done lots of puppy training, I have worked with shy and timid dogs. I have also helped to raise rescue dogs. I work from home so your fur baby won't be left on their own at all. Currently on maternity leave so able to give them attention all day We have a fenced rear garden with patio and grass and a large field behind for walks and plays if wanted the gate is locked and the house is secure with cctv etc

About: Many years being around and looking after friends and family's pets as well as my own beloved furbaby to extremely high standards- I got my doggy as a abused frightened and anxious dog but loved and cared for him until 14 years later in this time I've picked up on numerous social ques and learnt alot. I looked after my dog all throughout his life coming across lots of common and uncommon problems and being able to deal with minor things on my own without having to go to vets, we had amazing times together and even better walks with lots of love thrown in. However my baby has sadly passed away now due to old age and cancer. I do have two children who will always be supervised around you're furbaby but they are well aware of giving dogs space and not to over stimulate them, they have been around numerous dogs throughout their life and understand. Lastly I'd like to thank you for viewing my page and hopefully I can build an amazing bond with you're dog and have some lovely walks. Having fallen out of love with my pervious career (Childcare - due to lack of support, micromanagement and lots of other reasons) I've come to the conclusion that my family and having a routine suited to us is better therefore I'm at home 24/7 minus the school runs which means I can cater on your pooch without leaving them for extended amounts of time. I do have two children who also love animal but know their boundaries and will give your dog space. During term time Sunday evening to Thursday morning it will be between school hours for walks, dogs are more than welcome to stay at my home during this time and I cannot offer staying at your home during this time but Thursday after morning school run to Sunday evening I am free as and when needed. I have two gardens front and back which both are gated and fenced which means so escapees. Usually the back door is always ajar leaving your pet free to come in and out whenever they want. I have a large park 3 minutes walk from where I live and a huge woodland work 10 minutes from where I live, past the woods are fields and fields for your dog to walk that are very quiet. I enjoy off lead walking but this would depend on the dogs recall and what you're wishes are. I would like you to bring/ I'll collect the dogs comforts like their bed, toys, blankets etc as well as any dietary requirements and follow the routine you give with extra cuddles in there.

About: I have owned and looked after many pets over the years. I work for myself from home and I am available to look after pets at any time of the day. I have my own car and so I can travel to you if needed. I work my own hours and therefore I am available at any time of the day during the week. I have two family pets of my own and I am found of all animals. I can walk, feed and clean dogs, as well as playing with them, taking them to the park etc. I have food bowls and space for them to play, as well as local parks in which I can play with them. There is plenty of space in my home for cats and I have experience looking after and owning cats. I am happy to look after pets in the owner’s home as long as I am aware of where all the food, toys and medication (where required) are located.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, fish, and hamsters. I’m currently studying for my Health and Social Care qualification, and I’m looking for something to do on the side while I study. I’ve supported neighbors, including a lovely lady in her 90s, and I’m more than happy to help out around the house as well. You can absolutely trust me with your home and pets! Right now, I’m on my summer holidays before the new college year starts, so I’m super flexible and can easily fit into your pet’s schedule. I can do visits anytime, offer overnights, and make sure they get all the love and attention they need. I don’t offer pet sitting at my own home, but I’m more than happy to make sure your pets get exactly what they need in their own environment. I’m comfortable following any medication routines, dietary needs, or special safety instructions to keep them happy and healthy!

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.

She puts her needs first, checking the weather, when its been too warm she either walks Molly earlier or let's her out in the garden. Hayley is very knowledgeable, she knew when Molly wasnt well and contacted us straight away. Hayley has also taught Molly simple commands for which we are most grateful. Hayley is trustworthy and reliable. Molly adores her and loves her tummy tickles. We can highly recommend Hayley. She is a genuine dog lover.”

Davina B.

I was worrying about leaving my little baby somewhere but the minute I met Davina and her lovely little family they made me feel 100% rest assured that Skye would be fine with them, whilst away I had some cute pictures sent to me of Skye getting a bubble bath, good little groom, on a walk and having a cuddle on the sofa. I’m glad I chose for Skye to stay with Davina and her family because it just felt like from home to home 🏡 Thanks so much and Skye will be coming back to see you all in September xxx”
