I’ll always follow feeding instructions carefully, including any dietary restrictions, medications, or special routines. I’m very patient, attentive, and calm in stressful situations, and your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always come first. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, so my goal is always to make them feel loved, safe, and cared for just like they would be at home. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend(s)! 🐾 I currently work full time, but I still have flexible availability for pet care! I’m available for weekends, evenings/nights, and before-work visits. I can also do midday drop-ins during the work week depending on location/proximity.

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: Hi. I’m a professional, qualified actuary based here in Leeds city centre. I have experience dog sitting for a range of dogs (including senior citizens). I’m hoping to build relationships with a few local dogs (and their owners!) for sitting and walking services. I’m located close to Leeds train station and typically head along the canals for walks. I work full time although my work is flexible with when and where I work meaning I can typically adapt my schedule to your needs. I’m very patient and I have cared for nervous dogs in the past so I’m used to quickly building trust with them. I enjoy walks around Leeds city centre or further afield in Yorkshire on the weekend. I live with my partner who is equally caring and loving of dogs.

About: I have experience caring for and walking dogs through looking after family and friends’ pets, as well as my own dog. I regularly cared for my rescue dog, Juliet, a medium-sized mixed breed with lots of energy, which taught me patience and consistency. I have been doing this on and off for around a year while at university in Leeds, as she lives in my home town. I also have experience with calmer dogs, so I am confident adapting to different temperaments and needs. I always prioritise safety, comfort, and making sure each dog enjoys their walk. I’m currently working part-time whilst being off from uni! I understand every dog has different schedules so I’m happy to discuss what time works for them. As I have experience with a rescue dog, I understand that trust is earned. I have a lot of patience and keep myself as welcoming/open as needed. Your dog’s happiness and sense of safety is a priority to me.
About: I grew up with three cats and two dogs. I have a deep understanding of feline body language and emotional needs. I am patient in building their trust and happy to play with them. I have just completed my Master's degree at the University of Leeds and am approaching graduation. I'm currently in a free and fulfilling life transition, travelling and writing as a way of exploring the world. My schedule is highly flexible, and I'm available for most of the day to give cats my full attention. Pet care isn't a chore for me, because it's a natural part of daily life, and I genuinely cherish the quiet, gentle moments spent with animals. I have lived in both a house with a private garden and a high-rise city apartment, which gives me hands-on experience caring for cats in very different environments. I understand the specific considerations each setting requires: in a garden, that means monitoring escape routes and keeping an eye out for other animals; in an apartment, it means securing windows and ensuring balcony safety. Wherever I am, I always carry out a quick safety assessment so cats feel relaxed and well looked-after even in an unfamiliar space. I'm also a passionate photographer, and I love documenting the little moments of a cat's day through photos and videos. Owners can always count on regular updates, so they feel connected and reassured even when they're away.

Lima had three lovely long walks with Georgia. Lima is an active pup and needed to burn off energy while my mum was looking after her for a few days. Georgia’s walks clearly did the job! Lima was very happy and very content in the home and clearly had a lot of fun on the walks with Georgia! Would definitely recommend!!
This was my first experience with Rover so I was a bit apprehensive but Saffron quickly put my mind at ease. She was fab at communicating both beforehand and on the day and really took on board all the info I gave her and special instructions etc. She clearly really loves the pets she cares for as she went totally above and beyond what I expected. I will definitely be using her services again and I know Reggie will be excited to see her again soon.
Thank you so much for walking our crazy cocker whilst we have been away. You made him feel at ease from your first visit and made sure he was calm and reassured. A good distance was covered during your hours walk which he would have loved! We loved the photos and feedback everyday whilst we were away and knew he was in good hands Thank you so much again, hopefully we will be in touch again in the future.
Lucy has been absolutely fantastic with Stanley. She’s incredibly friendly, trustworthy, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. From the start, she made both of us feel completely at ease. Her communication has been excellent – always keeping me updated and letting me know how the walks have gone, which I really appreciate. It’s such a comfort knowing Stanley is in such caring and capable hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog walker.
Esme was fantastic. She was really open to my asks on how to manage my dog, who is young and excitable. She had a great way with him. It was clear that she was really experienced with dogs and her professional experience with children gives her a added advantage. Would recommend.
Blu is fantastic! I feel so at ease knowing my girl is with Blu. She’s so great with Cherrys quirks and reactivity around other dogs, which I know can be tricky. I know Cherrys is in good hands with Blu. She is so willing to help out if there’s any change in schedules or anything and Cherry seems to love her walks!
Shubham has been absolutely wonderful with our dog. From day one, it was clear how kind, patient, and genuinely caring he is. Our dog gets so excited when Shubham arrives and always comes home happy and relaxed after their walks. He’s reliable, friendly, and great at keeping us updated, which really puts our minds at ease. It means so much knowing our dog is not just walked, but truly cared for. We’re so grateful to have found Shubham and would recommend him wholeheartedly.
Thank you for taking Alfie out two times now 😁 Rosie has been really great with Alfie. She sent me updates during the walk and let me know when she dropped him back safely at my house. She is very bubbly and trustworthy. Will 100% be asking if she can walk him again 😁
Natasha did an excellent job walking and caring for our dog Marley while we were away for the day. Natasha collect Marley for his walk on time and cleaned his paws and gave him his dinner after their walk. Natasha provided great communication from booking to completed walk which included photos. I highly recommend Natasha and wouldn't hesitate booking her again for our dog. Thank you Natasha
