About: I have many pets myself, and have been involved in pet care since the age of 4. I currently have 3 cats, 1 dog, and a rabbit. I helped train my beautiful Lab Molly and often look after all the pets by myself when my family is away. This involves walking my dog, letting the dog and cats out for wee breaks, cleaning up dog poo, and feeding them all 2 times a day. And, of course, lots of playtime! I am currently studying at university, but my schedule is spread widely across the week so I have lots of free time each day to look after your pets and play with them as much as they like! I will be spending the majority of my time with them in the afternoons and evenings. I will follow your instructions carefully, keeping inside animals inside, dogs with patchy recall on the lead, and letting those of them allowed outside for regular toilet breaks. I make a point to be incredibly attentive and cautious, keeping anything that could be hazardous well out of reach.

About: Dogs always had an affinity for me as a child (my sister tells me it must be how I smell??) We had cats growing up so could never own a dog, however I always volunteered to walk my neighbour, cousin and auntie's dogs (spaniel, akita, labradoodle) as I loved being around them as they calm me. I love to learn a dog's personality but understand the vigilance and caution a dog walker needs to have as animals can be unpredictable. I currently work full-time from 9-6, but am available in the early mornings or evenings for busy pooch owners. Weekends are fully open for me. I will always talk to a dog owner about their pet's needs. This includes dietary restrictions, health conditions, personality or behavioural factors, and anything else that's vital to keeping a dog safe and content.

About: Whether your dog is a zoomies champion, a professional napper or a bit of a diva, I’m here to give them the best care while you’re away. I’ve got experience with dogs, having grown up with them so know what’s involved in ensuring they are happy and wagging their tails away! I live in a house with a secure garden and close to a local park so they’ll have lots of places to be able to play and explore. I’d love to be able to support you and can promise I’ll give your dog the best care and cuddles while they’re with me! I work from home on Fridays, and I can also offer boarding or care over the weekend. My life is very dog-friendly and your pup would fit right in! I have a secure, fenced garden that your dog can explore and roam in safely as much as they’d like. I’d want to ensure that your dog felt as at-home with me as possible. I have the space in my home to be able to crate your dog if needed, and room for them to have their own cosy space in the home.

About: I have had dogs my entire life along with other animals such as rabbits, cats and guinea pigs and have cared for family&friends pets for as long as I can remember! I have had experience with training, medication administration, walking and overnight stays! While I am new to doing this professionally, I am confident in saying that my personal experience with animal care has helped me to be reliable, caring and knowledgeable of all things pets!💜 I aim to treat your pets as though they are mine and help them to feel calm and cared for when they are with me💜 I am currently working in a restaurant however I aim to make my pet services business my full time job eventually. While I am available most of the time, my shifts at the restaurant tend to fall on 3-4 days a week usually starting no earlier than 4pm and finishing no later than 12.30am but obviously this is not always guaranteed and my hours and days there do vary. I aim to spend my mornings and afternoons dog walking and doing drop-ins and keep my restaurant shifts primarily in the evenings to ensure reliability and consistency for your pups. My rotas tend to be released 2 weeks in advance so we have plenty of time to work your pups around the schedule until I am in a place where I can make this full time!💜 The reason I do not offer boarding from my own home is because I truly believe in keeping your pets comfortable and in a familiar environment so that our time together can be as comfortable for them as possible. I do wish to provide a few meetings before the sit so that your dogs have the opportunity to get to know me and for me to get to know them so that our time together can flow easily and we can enjoy each others company comfortably. Where this isn’t possible, I would like to aim to spend a couple of hours before you leave with you and your pups in your home so that they are not nervous once you leave them in my care💜

About: I am a Zoology student at the University of Leeds, and have always had a life long love for animals. I have grown up around dogs and currently have two of my own back home, both of whom I have helped raise and train from birth. Over the years I have gained hands on experience working with animals, and participated in numerous conservation projects related to my course. For example, I volunteered on a project with a tribe in Thailand in which I studied elephant behaviour. In addition I have interned at a veterinary clinic, where I helped care for dogs and cats post-surgery and assisted with walking and observation. Finally, during school I worked as a dog walker and house sitter in my neighbourhood. Overall, I have experience caring for animals, both big and small, and am a reliable choice for your pet care! As it is currently summer holidays for university I have a very flexible schedule. I am available to look after your pet from Monday to Friday (and certain weekends). When University starts back after September, my schedule will still be flexible and negotiable. When caring for pets in their own home, I feel it is best to allow them to follow their usual routine to ensure they feel as relaxed as possible. I will tailor my care to each animal’s needs, including walks, feeding schedules or administering medication. Moreover, I will always respect any specific instructions you provide regarding your pets care. For dog walking, I can adjust the pace and length of the walk to the dog’s age, energy and personality, which includes their reactivity to other dogs (I have experience with this). I would aim to make every visit and walk calm and enjoyable!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from a young age and during university had a regular (a few days almost every week) dog/cat sitting gig that would go on to last 5 years. Those animals became like my own and if I hadn’t moved to the UK I don’t think I would have ever stopped seeing them! I also worked at a doggy day care/boarding facility for a summer and learned a lot about training and dog care. It was the best job - it was a shame that my studies conflicted in the end. I work full time but work from home most Mondays or Fridays at the moment. When I have a dog they come everywhere with me, and only in rare occurrences would we leave them at home alone and only for short periods. My partner Rob and I share pet care responsibilities so we can easily time manage between us. The main reason we dog sit is a love of dogs and an inability to have our own at the moment. Dogs who come here are treated like our own - they’re welcome on the furniture (as long as that’s fine with you!) and sleep wherever they’re most comfortable, so are welcome in the bed if they want. As I live in a flat I l always take dogs out for at least two walks a day (as well as multiple potty breaks) to make sure we both get plenty of exercise. On a weekend I love to get out for long country walks, so having a doggie friend is just another reason to get out there!

About: I have grown up around dogs and have dog sat for extended periods (longest two weeks). I also have experience with all sizes of dogs. I am a full time masters student and therefore my schedule is completely flexible. I have a car so am able to travel further out which allows me to be more adaptable. I believe it is important to get to know your pet before I look after them. I want them to feel safe and calm in my care.

Thanks so much for looking after our cat whilst we were away. Very well looked after and took the anxiety away of leaving the cat alone for the first time. Went above and beyond - even hoovered the litter, which he gets everywhere!

About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a child and grew up with one at home. Over the past few years, I’ve been dog sitting for my friends’ pets and truly enjoy every moment of it. I’d love to have a dog of my own, but at the moment my circumstances don’t allow it — so caring for others’ dogs is the next best thing! I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m available from Friday to Monday and can easily fit in walks, playtime, or overnight stays during those days. Your dog’s safety is my priority. I always follow your instructions carefully — from feeding routines and walks to any house rules or training habits you have in place. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed, keep a close eye on your pet at all times, and create a calm, familiar environment so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including rescue dogs with unique needs. Over the years, I've worked with everything from tiny, energetic terriers to large, strong breeds, and I understand how to tailor care to suit each dog’s personality and comfort level. I have a special place in my heart for rescue dogs—I have my own, a 5-year-old black Labrador, who’s taught me so much about patience, trust, and the deep bond that forms with compassionate care. Whether it’s a shy rescue or a playful pup, I’m dedicated to making every dog feel safe, loved, and well looked after. I currently do varying shift patterns so I have plenty of time to play and walk your pet throughout the week and weekends! I’ll be keeping my daily availability updated each day. When caring for a pet in their home, I prioritise creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment to help both the pet and owner feel at ease. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine closely—whether that’s feeding times, walks, or bedtime habits—to maintain consistency and comfort. I’m respectful of the home, keeping everything clean and secure, and I’m happy to provide regular updates, including photos and messages, so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Building trust is key, and I treat each home and pet as if they were my own—with kindness, attentiveness, and genuine care.

About: I love dogs because they bring so much joy, loyalty, and companionship into my life. Their unconditional love and playful energy make every day brighter, and I truly enjoy the bond that forms between a person and their dog. Growing up with dogs my whole life has given me a deep appreciation for their unique personalities and the comfort they provide. I've also gained a lot of experience over the years when it comes to walking, bathing, and looking after dogs. Having been around them for as long as I can remember, I’ve learned how to meet their needs and make sure they’re happy and healthy. Whether it’s long walks, grooming, or just spending quality time together, I feel confident in caring for dogs and making sure they feel loved and well-cared for. I currently work nights so I'm fully available throughout the day and the weekends, so I'm more than happy for dog walks during the day or having cats/dogs stay as well. My home is very safe has a back garden thats fenced and my room/ Living room is spacious and my roommates also love animals and have plenty of animals in their homes. We currently have no pets.

About: I'm Addie, 32, she/they. Since birth, I've lived with all different dog breeds, from jack russels and staffys, to huskies and westies. From a young age I took an interest in dogs and I consider them my soul animals. As a child, I started training my Grandma's dogs and then my own family dogs. I've enjoyed learning about dogs behaviours, cues and psychology which gives me a better understanding of each individual animal. I had my own dog, up until 2 years ago as she passed away and so I have experience of being the sole carer of a dog. I'm always my friends and families go to person for dog sitting and I've been called a "dog whisperer". One of the proudest things I can say is that all animals trust me and that is such an honour! I live in a warm and compassionate shared house of 4 dog lovers. Everyone mostly works from home so there will never be a shortage of cuddles and attention. At the moment, I don't work due to chronic health issues, so I have a lot of free time (depending on whether I'm having a bad flare up or not). I tend to only ever look after one dog at a time, so I can give them my full attention. In my household there are no other animals or any children. I don't have an enclosed garden but I'm happy to take them to the toilet as many times as they need on the lead. There are several grass sections and woodland right next to my house. I always wants dogs to feel like my home is their home and that includes going on the sofa and bed.

About: I’m an incredibly attentive and fun loving dog sitter who has looked after dogs for all my life. I am great with all sorts of dogs, but particularly towards anxious dogs as I’ve always owned more sensitive animals. I am reliable, I have sharp time management and communication skills, and will do my upmost to keep your dog happy and relaxed under my care! At the moment I am a student, so I have ample time for your dog and their doggy needs! I can be an early riser or a night owl, whatever is required to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. I have plenty of toys and treats to bring with me to make sure your dog is as entertained as possible! I am also perfectly happy giving a more anxious or elderly baby their well deserved space. I am confident in crating dogs, giving medication and any other needs or routines your dog may require.
