Ariah had a lovely day of checkins with Katie while my husband and I were out! Felt very safe leaving her in Katie's care, and we got lots of pictures to see how much fun she was having. 😊 Very quick and clear communication, will definitely be booking again!

Hannah was so lovely and calm with my energetic puppy! She left the place beautifully and Nell was deeply asleep when I got back. I’ll definitely be using her again!

Amy was fantastic with Beanz! She communicated clearly throughout, and made the whole process stress-free. She spent time playing with Beanz, and it was obvious he was happy and well cared for. She also kept his food and water bowls clean, and I came back to a tidy kitchen. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future, highly recommended!

Marcus was a pleasure to meet and I was very happy with the care he gave my elderly, blind cat. She is very wary of strangers since losing her sight but he was patient and kind and quickly won her over! Marcus sent sweet pictures and regular updates; I'd recommend him to anyone! Many thanks, Marcus.

About: I was raised around all types of dogs and have over five years of hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs, Milo and Clifford. I’ve also regularly looked after dogs for family and friends over the years, building trust and confidence in providing safe, loving, reliable care. Milo and Clifford are friendly, neutered, and love having playmates. 🐶🐾 I work during the week, which makes me perfectly suited to caring for pets while owners enjoy weekend getaways. I’m also available for morning and evening walks or drop-in visits during the week, ensuring pets receive consistent care, attention, and routine even when you’re busy. 🐾 I care for every dog as if they were my own, following their usual routines to help them feel safe and settled. Owners provide their dog’s food to maintain their normal diet, and I have a crate available if needed. I also have a secure, fully enclosed garden for safe playtime, plus easy access to plenty of open fields for long, enjoyable walks and exercise. 🐶🌿🐾

About: 🐱🐶 Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats, kittens, and dogs, including volunteering at an animal shelter and fostering cats.🐱🐶 I’ve loved animals from a very young age and come from a very animal-loving family. Growing up, we always had cats at home, and I’ve helped care for kittens since I was a child. While living in Tokyo, where pets weren’t allowed in my apartment, I volunteered at a local animal shelter walking dogs and helping care for the animals. During the pandemic, I also fostered two cats, including one with special needs, which was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had. I’m very attentive to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, or require extra patience and care. I’ll always treat your pet with the same kindness, attention, and responsibility as if they were my own. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting during the week and many weekends. I enjoy spending time outdoors and going for walks, so dog walking fits naturally into my routine. I’m also happy to adapt to your pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, or check-ins so they can keep their normal routine as much as possible. I always aim to create a calm, safe, and respectful environment for pets. In a pet owner’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines so your pet feels comfortable and secure. I’m attentive to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they enjoy lots of play and interaction or prefer a quieter approach. I also make sure doors, gates, and living spaces are secure and that pets always have fresh water and a clean environment. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.

About: I have had my own own dog, a lovely mixed-breed rescue called Teddy and have looked after dogs professionally for ten plus years. I am used to many breeds including rescues and large breeds. I will treat your dog as my own! X I currently work from home in tech/software. I tend to be in for most of the day only leaving for 3 hours maximum. I enjoy being out at the park, on the beach or walking up the Seven Sisters National Park, all of which is behind my house. I live very close to the beach. My home is on the ground floor, comfortable and I have a huge dog bed and plenty of toys.

Clarissa provided excellent care for our cat Milo over Christmas, and went the extra mile to ensure he got plenty of human contact while we were away during a very busy period. Responsive and reliable, we'd have no hesitation booking again.

About: Aside from looking after my own adorable border terrier, I've cared for dogs big and small, cuddled up to some cats, guinea pigs, birds, snakes and fed some fish! I've always loved animals and as a pet owner I understand how important it is that your animal friends are treated with love and care. I have previous experience administering medication to both cats and dogs, carrying elderly dogs up and down the stairs (just small ones, I'm not that buff!) and looking after energetic puppies. I'm more than happy to meet any animal that needs caring for. I'm sure we'll get along great! ---------------------- The total booking fee of any house-sitting stay is doubled for constant care (pets who can't be left alone for longer than 4 hours total in the daytime, within a 24 hour period). I love being with your pets and will be spending as much time as I can with them. However, I also need to run errands, go to school and may just want to see friends or family. I am able to provide constant care, but will increase my prices for this to reflect the increase in commitment. Thank you for understanding! I'm currently only studying on Mondays and Tuesdays until 4pm, so the rest of the week I'm completely free! I'm also more than happy to housesit on these days if you don't mind me being out at the beginning of the week (but every other day I'm a big homebody!). I completely understand that some pets can be nervous having a new person coming into their home. Absolutely anything I can do to make both you and your pet feel more comfortable- just say the word! I have experience crating dogs and soothing nervous ones- whether it's a stroke or a run around they need. I always try to leave a place better than how I found it. No messes! I'd love to chat with you more about your pet and get to know how to best take care of your individual animal friend's needs.

About: I have had pets for my whole life. I had two border collie puppies and two kittens when I was a kid so I have had experience caring for animals at all stages of their life. I have experience giving both cats and dogs medications and following special diets. I love going on walks with dogs and spending time outdoors. I currently have a labradoodle puppy who is 10 weeks old and so I am regaining the experience of training a puppy again. I have always been an animal lover and old dogs have a special place in my heart. I am doing a Masters degree at the moment and so I will have lots of time to spend with your pets on my days off. I am unable to look after pets in my own home as I don't want to stress out my cats but I will follow your guidance and rules about caring for your pet in your own home. I am neat and tidy and I will make sure that the house remains clean and tidy and safe for your pet. Your pet will be kept on a leash for the full duration of walks. I will also only give them treats that are approved by you first and that their dietary requirements are strictly followed.

About: My brother has a beautiful chow that I watch regularly. I’m very active and would love to have a companion (whether just a walk or a sleepover). I appreciate that each dog will have their own unique personalities and needs, and I’m happy to work around that. I walk each morning and evening, so I’m really interested in walking/boarding dogs. Please get in touch if you need support! My house has a fenced garden, nearby parks (< 2min), and room for them to relax. I don’t own a pet currently but watch dogs regularly x I mainly work from home so looking after pups fits in well with my weekly routine. With enough notice I can work from home which allows me to care for dogs during the working week. I’m vigilant, caring and enjoy spending time with dogs. I am happy to meet up before the booking, particularly if a dog is staying with me, so they can familiarise themselves with the space.

Samantha was great with Elsa (Cat). We really felt at ease knowing that she was well looked after. Elsa takes time before feeling comfortable with people shendoesnt know however, with Samantha that wasn’t an issue. Communication was provided daily and Samantha attended when she said she would. Would highly recommend Samantha as a pet sitter and if available would use her again :) Thanks Samantha.

About: I've always loved caring for dogs from a young age. My family would regularly take care of neighbours dogs when they went away which I always enjoyed. I have continued to care for animals throughout my adult life. I worked for Guide Dogs for the Blind for several years. This meant I gained an ability to confidently deal with all types of dogs of all ages. I have also worked on several farms whilst travelling which involved caring for dogs, cats, chickens and cows. One instance involved looking after a young pup adjusting to a new life. This was a challenge at times but was so satisfying to see the progress he made during our time together. I love building relationships with animals and providing a safe place for them to thrive alongside us humans. I'm currently working part time so have plenty of space in my schedule to play, feed, and care for your furry friends. I am free every morning and also have space most evenings. Would be a pleasure to fill that spare time with caring for your pets! I can welcome cats or dogs into my flat and create a safe, relaxing space for them to enjoy being in. I can also ensure that I will bring a gentle, calming, considerate energy when interacting with your pets whether in my own home, or in yours, or out in the world.

About: I have grown up in a very pet friendly household and have cared for a range of animals since I was young (but mostly dogs and cats). I have looked after my own pets, as well as the pets of friends and neighbours, and have experience carrying out drop-in visits and also overnight stays. I am currently working part-time as a cleaner and so I have fairly flexible hours and enough free time to give your pets more than enough love and attention I am very clean and use pet friendly products (as I have animals of my own). I am also tidy and organised with a great respect for any boundaries you set within your household

About: I have looked after numerous dogs including very active breeds such as border collies, a hungarian vizsla, a giant schnauzer and a working springer spaniel! I enjoy walks so will be more than happy to take your dog on a long walk on the downs or along the seafront. I work part-time in education supporting students with additional needs so I have an up to date DBS check. Alongside this, I have recently completed a dog first aid training course through the provider Dog First Aid Sussex. I have also completed my Level 2 Dog Grooming qualification with Plumpton College. I am generally available on Wednesdays and Thursdays during term time. I am also available most evenings and weekends. I have more availability during school holidays as I work part time in education in a local sixth form college and for a university. I am trustworthy and will pay attention to detail in terms of what is required from each individual pet sit! Every pet is different as has different needs which I will ensure I cater for! I only take one dog at a time unless they are from the same household .

Clarissa did a wonderful job looking after our cat Molly with drop in vists. Put our mind at ease knowing she was getting some good quality time and always nice to get pics and updates on how she was doing. Excellent communication and we came back to a very happy cat, would definitely recommend.
