Alice was absolutely fantastic looking after Tank and Alfie over the 3 days! She was so flexible, reliable, and always quick to respond to messages, which made everything really easy and stress-free. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and she was more than happy to feed them and make sure they were both well looked after. Most importantly, the dogs absolutely loved her and were so happy and settled in her care, which says it all! It gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I’ve already rebooked with her, which speaks for itself! What a star – thank you so much, Highly recommend

About: I’m a 19-year-old university student who has grown up surrounded by animals and genuinely loves caring for them. I have plenty of free time around my studies, so I’m able to offer flexible and reliable pet care. I’ve spent many of my summer holidays walking dogs for family and friends, keeping myself busy while doing something I truly enjoy. I’m also on my own fitness journey, so getting out for longer walks is something I actively enjoy — making dog walking a perfect combination of exercise, fresh air and spending time with animals. I’m comfortable around animals of all ages and personalities, and my experience goes beyond dogs: my cat has kittens several times a year, so I’m very familiar with caring for young, delicate animals and understand the patience, gentleness and attention they need. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, loved and well cared for while they’re with me. As a university student, my schedule can be more flexible than a typical 9–5, meaning I can often give your dog plenty of time and attention throughout the day. Pet care serves as a wonderful break from my studies and allows me to spend time with animals which is my favourite hobby. I have a fenced garden, safe home and smoke-free environment. My cat is outdoors for most of the day, but is friendly and has been around dogs many times before with no issue. Whether your dog wants a two-hour adventure, a game of fetch in the garden, or simply someone to curl up beside, I’m happy to work around what makes them comfortable. If you choose me to take care of your furry friend, I guarantee regular updates, photos, my undivided attention and fast reply rates.

Charlotte was brilliant and so wonderful with Rusty, it was the first time we have left him and had someone come in to see him and let him out. Even though he was a little nervous Charlotte communicated with me straight away and encouraged him gently out into the garden for a wee and a play. Charlotte communicated with me the whole time she was with Rusty and really reassured me that he was okay! Thank you for being so lovely and brilliant with Rusty

About: We’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old including my own dog for 7 years. I’ve looked after friends & families dogs when they’ve gone away and regularly let my sisters dog out. I’ve been around dogs of all sizes, from a pug all the way up to a Great Dane. I currently work part time, so off Monday, Thursdays and Friday. Your dogs will be loved and looked after as if they were my own, with lots of company while you’re at work. I have a fenced garden with no gaps, I have my own little pug who will keep your fur baby company whilst you’re away and 3 dog loving children who will be here after 3pm

About: Although I haven’t had a dog of my own, I have plenty of hands on experience caring for dogs. I’ve spent a lot of time looking after a dog who was very special to me, and I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs when they’ve needed someone they trust. I’m comfortable with the day to day care dogs need, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship and giving them plenty of attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs, and I’ll take the time to get to know them. I’m happy to follow your usual routines and instructions closely, including any specific feeding, walking or care requirements. I’ll treat your dog with the same patience and care I would want for my own pet. I currently work part time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care around my routine. I’m available for pet sitting and drop in visits from 11am onwards, including weekends. I have time to give pets the attention and company they need, rather than having to rush a visit around a full time working day. I’m happy to work around each pet’s usual routine, including feeding, cleaning, playtime, walks and plenty of fuss and attention. I’ll always discuss your pet’s routine and needs with you beforehand so I can keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay in familiar surroundings and keep to their usual routine while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure they have everything they need, including food, fresh water, clean litter trays, playtime, exercise and plenty of attention and companionship. For cats, I’m very happy to spend time playing with them, giving them fuss if they want it, or simply keeping them company if they prefer their own space. I’ll also keep their feeding and litter routine consistent. I’ll treat your home with respect and leave everything clean and tidy. I can also keep you updated with messages and photos while you’re away, so you know how your pet is getting on.

About: We’ve always had dogs since we met 24 years ago. Our first dog we had from a puppy and we’ve also had two rescue dogs. I currently work part time as a retail assistant so would have time to care for and play with your dog. They would be walked twice a day and treated as one of our own. I have a secure enclosed fenced in garden for your fur baby to play with our very friendly rescue Labrador. Plenty of lovely walks nearby including fields, parks and woods.

Anita was great! She looked after Lexi our cat whilst we were away on a trip and communicated really well with us and made sure Lexi was happy at home given the crazy heatwave we were experiencing during the time. Would happily book Anita again for pet care.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and sometimes babysit my sisters dog and cat, I’ve also been entrusted by neighbours and friends to care for their pets whilst they’re on holiday. I work part time so could definitely make time for pet care within my schedule, I have clubs and hobbies but I’m confident that timings can be sorted! I wouldn’t necessarily pet sit from my house just due to my current circumstances! However this may change in the future. As for a pet owners home, however you feel comfortable! I know each dog/cat has their own quirks and personalities.

About: I've always had dogs or cats throughout my life and I currently am a cat mum. I thoroughly love animals and care for them a huge amount. I am currently working hybrid and have a flexible schedule, so happy to workout timings with you when a care is needed for your pet/s I can not have animals in my home as I have a cat and I don't think she would like any visitors unfortunately and it wouldn't be fair on her. For any bookings I would speak to the customer about any possible safety issues they know of in advance from their side.

About: Hi, I'm Charlotte! I've grown up with dogs, cats and other small animals, so caring for pets has always been a part of my life. I genuinely love spending time with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs. Alongside regularly walking dogs, my partner Joe and I also look after family and friends' pets whenever they need us to. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit or overnight care, we treat every pet as if they were our own, making sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after. We both work in the emergency services, so being reliable, trustworthy and dependable is second nature to us. We work around our shift patterns, which gives us flexibility to offer care throughout the week, including weekdays, evenings and weekends. We're based in Ardleigh, where we're lucky to have plenty of lovely countryside footpaths and quiet walking routes right on our doorstep. Whether your dog enjoys a gentle stroll or a longer adventure, we'll make sure they get the exercise, attention and care they deserve. We know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and we'd love the opportunity to get to know both you and your furry friend. Our shift work gives us a flexible routine that works really well with pet care. As we both work in the emergency services, we have different shift patterns, meaning there is usually someone at home and we can plan our time around the needs of each pet. We love being outdoors and regularly enjoy going on walks and runs around the local countryside, so having a dog to join us makes it even better. We have plenty of lovely walking routes around Ardleigh and enjoy giving pets the exercise, attention and companionship they need. We also don't have any children or pets so our lifestyle is very flexible. We know that every pet is different, and nobody knows them better than their owner. Before looking after your pet, we’ll always take the time to learn about their routine, personality and what makes them feel happy and safe. We’ll follow your guidance so they feel as comfortable and settled as possible. We have a secure, sizeable garden where they can enjoy some fresh air, play and explore safely. Our home is set back from the road, giving pets a quieter and safer environment, and we also have security cameras around the property for extra peace of mind. We’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, cuddles, exercise and downtime depending on what they’re used to. We understand that some pets need lots of interaction, while others prefer a little more space and a calm routine. When caring for pets in their own home, we know that staying in a familiar place can often be less stressful. We’ll keep to their normal routine, spend quality time with them and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Most importantly, we want your pet to feel happy and relaxed, and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re being looked after by people who genuinely love animals.

About: I’m a fun, caring animal lover who just wants the best for all animals! I currently volunteer at the Blue Cross and I’ve previously run a kennels & cattery so am confident with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes and breeds. I’ve also worked for 2 zoos - one a mobile zoo with smaller animals such as reptiles and meerkats and the other a large zoo with everything from penguins to zebras so I’m used to a whole host of animal traits and characters, as well as meeting their needs. My work is very flexible and I work from home most of the time - if I do need to go out I often take the dog/s staying with me along, so they can enjoy a walk somewhere new at the same time🙂 My approach to looking after your pets? With love! Having had my own dogs since I was a child and more recently lost my elderly Mastiff cross Bordeaux, I know what it’s like as an owner to leave your pet with someone else. I therefore aim to make both you and your pet as comfortable as can be while you’re away and am very flexible to meets yours and their needs.

Second time Evie has looked after Floki my cat who doesn’t seem to be very sociable! Evie makes sure he is eating, drinking and using his litter tray even if he doesn’t put in an appearance. Trusting and reliable and keeps me updated too. Highly recommend.

Steph was absolutely amazing while looking after my cat Hettie during my holiday. Her communication was brilliant throughout—regular updates, thoughtful messages, and the loveliest photos that really put my mind at ease. She went above and beyond in every way, and it was clear how much care and attention she gave. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat, and I’m so grateful. I couldn’t recommend Steph more highly.
