“From the first meet-up with Natália, I knew she was the perfect sitter for my chow chow Leo. She came across as really caring and was so lovely with my pup and he was playing with her as soon as they met. She came a couple of times a day to walk him and feed him while I was away for Christmas and she did a fantastic job. She kept me posted and followed all the instructions. Thank you Natália for letting me have a lovely Christmas without worrying about my pup. I would definitely recommend her and I’ve already booked her again for January.”


“The lovely Nadia, and her equally lovely daughter, walked Stan for me this morning, and did such a great job! It was my first time using this app, and she really put me at ease. They popped round to meet Stan the day before (and got on like a house on fire), so he was mega excited to see them again this morning! I'll definitely be hiring Nadia again, and would highly recommend her services! Stanley has 2 new best friends :)”


About: I have always had a great conection with animals, having grown up with a labrador and a cocker spaniel. Since my mum adopted a beautiful and playful dachshund, I realised I would love to spend more time with animals but my living situation makes ownership impossible at the moment, so I would love to come make life easier for you while allowing me to meet new people and animals! Advanced DBS checked ✅ I work shifts in NHS psychology. Each week, I can dedicate time specifically to pet care. I prioritise morning and evening walks, and I can structure my day around making sure pets feel comfortable and loved while their families are away. Whether it’s mid-day check-ins, exercise, or quiet time together, I make sure your furry friend is my top priority. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I always keep an eye on pets during playtime and walks to ensure they’re protected from potential hazards. I use your chosen leashes, collars and harnesses for walks and avoid risky areas. Your pet will receive all the love, care, and attention they deserve, whether in your home or out and about.

About: I've had dogs for over 20 years now, they are a big part of my life. That's why you can be certain your pooches are well looked after during their stay....they will be treated like part of my family, with a comfy, home from home experience! I can also help with basic training if you would like, while Im caring for your dog. I have completed a dog first aid course, and have a recent DBS as I have a health care background. I am also fully insured for dogs both in and out of the house. If you have any dates in mind at all please ask and i will let you know! When im looking after your dog is will alter my schedule so that I am around to take care of them. If your dog is at at my house, they will have the run of my downstairs and garden access on a regular basis... They will have a safe corner to chill with their own bed, they can even snuggle on the sofa (if thats okay with you!) Your dog will have at least 2 walks a day, in a variety of locations near me. I will provide toys and games too, to keep them busy.

About: I have years of experience with dog care, training and pet setting. I love spending time with dogs and your dog will be in good hands. I am working from home most days of the week so I have flexible schedule and I often also accept last minute bookings. I am happy to help:) My home is very safe and all dogs that I have looked after (50+) felt very well and comfortable here. I am looking forward to welcoming your dog and I will make sure that she/he feels great in my home x

About: I have a cocker spaniel named Winnie who I’ve raised since he was a puppy in February 2023. He’s taught me so much about patience, routines, and the unconditional love dogs give. Looking after him every day has shown me just how much joy and comfort dogs bring to our lives. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re part of the family - with kindness, care, and lots of love. Whether it’s a gentle walk or some company while you’re away, I’m here to help your pup feel happy and safe. I work from home full-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility to fit pet care around my schedule. I plan my day so I can step out for walks or drop-in visits during mornings, lunch breaks, or afternoons - depending on what suits you and your dog best. Weekends are usually free too, so I’m available for longer walks or extra visits if needed. Having my own dog has made pet care a natural and rewarding part of my routine - it’s something I truly enjoy and make time for every day. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits, and I care for each dog as if they were my own. For walks, I tailor the pace and route to suit your dog’s needs — whether it’s a relaxed sniffy walk or something more active. I make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and enjoy their time out, always using secure leads and paying attention to their body language. During drop-in visits, I can help with feeding, playtime, toilet breaks, or just keeping them company. I understand that every dog has their own routine, and I do my best to follow yours closely to help them feel at ease. Whether I’m out walking or popping by for a visit, I make sure to send updates so you always know your dog is happy and well cared for.

“Drew took on Krrish very well and was understanding of the nature of my situation and shift patterns. My GSD enjoyed his walks with her and you can see she had previous experience with big breeds and younger dogs. She does what is asked for and is gret with communication! I trust her with mine and will be using her services again. I very much would recommend her ?”


“Kopal was amazing with my dog Kiara, would highly recommend! Great communication and Kiara obviously has a wonderful time with her 🙂”


About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was a little girl. I grew up in a small village full of animals, and when I was 9, my family finally got our first dog. I taught him all the basic commands just by watching YouTube videos — and my love for dogs only grew stronger from there. Unfortunately, I had to leave my furry best friend behind in my home country with my parents where he loves it the most and I miss that kind of companionship every single day. Dog sitting, for me, isn’t just a job — it’s my way of reconnecting with that joy, peace, and unconditional love that only dogs can give. I also have experience volunteering on a farm, where I cared for a variety of animals and learned even more about responsibility and animal behavior. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, or simply keeping your dog safe and happy, I’m here to help — with heart and care. I am currently working part-time and from home so I have plenty of time for your furry friends. I am fully flexible and able to take care of your doggies every single day except Sunday because on Sundays I do volunteering on farm <3 My flat is only 10 minutes from nearest park, unfortunately I don't have a garden, only shared yard and a small flat so its better for me to cuddle your dogs at your place or just go for a walk and play outside.

About: I have cared Labrador ,Lion pomeranian and Sitzu Dogs in my home country and trained them more than 2years. I also spend time with them- walking, feeding, basic grooming ,friendly with them so they never feel lonely or stressed. Though my Dogs is back home, I miss being around pets. Rover let me stay close to animals i love. I am a student so I can spend time with puppy on weekends and also I have time to play and walk together on week days after 5.30pm. I don't have any pet in my home. I can keep them in owner's house with safety also when they are in own place. They feel comfortable. I collect information about puppy medical, care and food.

About: I have many years of experience volunteering at a shelter. I currently devote all my free time to animals. I love working with them but also their company. I am currently studying and I have a lot of free time to spend with animals. We both need it. I derive pleasure and relaxation from working with animals but also from spending time with them. I have a free room for the animals I care for so they can have "their" space and privacy but also access to the entire house and garden.

About: I currently work at Dogs Trust, so I've got lots of doggy experience, of all breeds, shapes and sizes. I've also had lots of experience working in other rescue shelters across the world, such as in Asia, South America and in Europe! I have done dog sitting for friends and family and send regular updates and photos to make sure the owner can relax, knowing that their pet is happy and safe :) I completed an Animal Behaviour and Welfare Degree at University and have always had a keen interest in animals! I'd say that animals are better companions than humans (lol). I've volunteered at a Canine Hydrotherapy Pool which was very interesting to be a part of and also worked at a dog training and boarding kennels, so I feel I have lots of experience working and being around dogs :) I work part time, and my work schedule changes weekly, one week I work 3 days, the next week I work 5 days. I also work every other weekend. So my schedule is pretty flexible as I am available weekdays and weekends. I am also flexible with my evenings after work! So just give me a message and I can see if I am available:) (Even though I have marked some days as unavailable, this just means I'm at work during the day, free in the evenings! So please message me for any availability:) ) I am patient, attentive and caring, so always giving your doggo the best time, whether that is popping round for a visit, a play and toilet, or having a nice walk in the park. I love an adventure and love walking so I'm very happy to walk! If your dog prefers a more chilled atmosphere, I am also more than happy to relax at home. I have walked many dogs in public and non public spaces, so I am confident walking your dog on lead. I can also be trusted in your home with your dog (I have had many responsible roles in the past, I was a keyholder and managed a shop by myself). I am always happy to answer any questions about myself.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I take this job seriously. I can also train dogs but the simple tasks using treats for this I’m currently a university student. But my timetable is very flexible. I can do also weekends which are more suitable and more free for me.
