Irina was absolutely wonderful with Joanie! She was very attentive to all the information we gave her, and she took brilliant care of Joanie. We came home to a very happy dog and an absolutely spotless home. We can't recommend Irina enough, she's very friendly and we'd book her again in a heartbeat! Thank you Irina!!

First time sitting with Chiara— she’s a reliable, super effective communicator. Kind and respectful, calm and considerate too. I have a reactive dog and she’s so far been extremely understanding of this. I’m looking forward to working more together. Stevie seemed very happy once I came home, so I believe a lovely evening was had by both :) House was left exactly as I left it too.

Adrian was great with our Dalmatian Scarlet. Took her on plenty of nice long walks which is perfect for a high energy breed like this. He has the experience necessary to be able to have her off lead safely and confidently. Adrian stayed in our apartment with no problems at all. He provided plenty of photos and updates whilst we were away.

We had a fantastic experience with Michael and couldn’t recommend him more highly. From the very beginning, communication was clear, reliable, and reassuring, which made a huge difference while we were away. We particularly appreciated the regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Both our pets were relaxed, well looked after, and clearly fond of their sitter by the time we returned. We would absolutely trust him again in the future.

Dominika was very responsible and took great care of Richie while we’re on holiday for 4 days. She responded very timely and kept us updated every day with pictures and videos of Richie. She not only took care of Richie but also my garden and left the house really clean and tidy! Would highly recommend and come back if we ever need someone to take care of Richie again!

About: I look after cat and dogs in and around London as well as my family dogs when I’m home. This includes catsitting, dog walking and dogsitting. I’ve grown up with pets and I am used to their behaviours. I am work from home most of the week, can flexibility do this anywhere with multiple walks or dog walking any lunchtime. Additionally, available on weekends. I am used to dogsitting clients as well as looking after my family dogs for walks, feeding, care and letting out often. I am kind hearted and used to being around dogs.

Sam and Rebecca are amazing!! They took care of Otto so well that he didn’t want them to leave, they were full of love and patience with Otto. It was our first time using Rover and Sam was permanently sending updates and letting us know how things were doing. They are really great! We will definitely ask them to take care of Otto again, thank you so much!

Anna looked after Millie for the day at very short notice in our home when one of us had to attend a meeting unexpectedly. She was reassuring, a really nice person, and easy to communicate with. Millie had a great time with Anna. She took her for a walk, played with her, and shared pictures of her snoozing on the sofa. Our house was left tidy and exactly as we left it. We'd be very happy for Anna to look after Millie again.

Kassie took brilliant care of my young kitten and older cat for a week - they both had plenty of attention (tricky with an energetic kitten!) and really bonded with Kassie. It was such a relief knowing they were in safe hands while I was away and I had lots of adorable updates on their antics! Kassie also took really good care of my home and I would 100% recommend her for house-sitting or drop-in visits. Thanks again!

We managed to book Gem a few days before we went on a last-minute holiday, and she was BRILLIANT. This was the fist time we have left our dog with a sitter, and she immediately put our minds at ease and was diligent, organised, caring and very communicative. We had multiple daily updates and she left our house spotless and was very considerate. She clearly took very good care of our dog and we will definitely be using Gem again. Highly recommend!

Fabienne was brilliant. We have a fussy old (wonderful) dog who took immediately to Fabienne and enjoyed her walks cuddles and treats. We really enjoyed her daily photos and what they did together. I thoroughly recommend her (she stayed at ours for a week) and I’ll certainly be looking to see if she is free next time we are away and need doggy care.

Ellie was amazing whilst looking after our two doggies. We met in advance and knew straight away that Ellie would look after them with great care. We also had lovely updates from Ellie whilst we were away when she took them out on adventures and she very kindly watered our plants too. Couldn’t recommend enough.

We can’t praise Agni enough for her services, communication and honesty. This was our first time having a cat sitter so we were nervous. Soon as we met Agni, we felt reassured and confident in her abilities - even Flossy (who takes time to warm to new people) instantly took a shine to Agni. We knew then Flossy would be in good hands. We received daily photos, videos and messages from Agni, playing and caring for our Flossy cat whilst we were away. Agni also kept out flat clean and tidy throughout her stay. Thank you for creating a great, first time experience for us. Flossy is already looking forward to next time.
