“Looked after our cocker spaniel for a week. Kept us updated daily and always fast to respond. Lovely photos received of great walks and the house was pristine on return. Thank you.”


“Eloisa was great from start to finish! She made sure she had all the information necessary to take care of maxi well and kept me well informed and updated throughout her stay. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!”


“Charlotte was fantastic. She arranged a time to meet our dog before she looked after him and he immediately took to her. This made the actual day so much smoother. She looked after him during the day whilst we were at a funeral where she took him for a walk and kept him company. She was so friendly and prompt but flexible with our timings. We are hugely appreciative for her services and we would definitely recommend her to others! Would definitely use her again!”


About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life and have always cared deeply for them, ensuring that they are at their most comfortable. As I’ve gotten older I have been given both educational and professional experience working with all types of animals and learning about their care for the past 3 years. As I work part-time in cat and dog boarding at a kennels and cattery, I have had experience working with animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I am working part-time at the moment, primarily working in the late afternoon meaning that I am available for most days of the week. My availability will increase over the summer months due to the summer holiday break from college. As I have experience working with a variety of dogs and cats , I am easily adaptable and can follow any guidelines set by the pets owners, no matter how complex. As well as this, due to my experience with both older pets and younger ones, I can make sure to cater the care for each animal individually.

“Rohit was a home sitter for my 13yr old staffie- collie cross. He was caring, responsible, attentive to details and had a great bond with my dog. He was flexible with the dates and times which made things so much easier for me. He was contactable by phone and sent updates. I would definitely recommend and book him again.”


About: I have a foundation diploma in animal management in which I was educated on and looked after a wide range of animals. I also have my own pets(cat and dog) and trained my Border Collie Ivy, taking her to many puppy training courses from which I have gained valuable experience. I have loved animals my whole life and have enjoyed taking care of loved ones pets in the past helping feed, bathe, groom and walk them. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to put your pets first and dedicated myself to their care. I also spend a lot of time looking after my own pets and find joy in caring for them. I ensure that both my pets get enough exercise and stimulation throughout the day as to provide a happy and healthy lifestyle for them. I value spending quality time with my pets to make them feel as loved as possible.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over five years, starting with my family dog at my mum’s house. After moving out, I got my own dog and have since welcomed several cats into my home. I’m experienced with feeding routines, grooming, walking, playtime, and general care, and I’m confident handling pets with different personalities and needs. I work 35–40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, between 8am and 6pm. This means I typically have 2–3 mornings or afternoons off during the week, depending on my rota. I’m fully available on weekends. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a pet owner’s home, I always aim to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment. At my home, I have a decent-sized fenced garden where dogs can enjoy secure outdoor time, fresh air, and play. Pets are treated like part of the family, with plenty of attention, cuddles, and comfort. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, play, and quiet time. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space and routines while making sure their pets feel safe, relaxed, and well looked after.

“Rhian was amazing! Our 8yr old Samoyed had a wonderful time with her while we were away. Rhian sent lots of updates/photos and even took him on an outing (with our permission of course 😁). We will definitely be requesting her services again!”


“Tasmin and her partner took wonderful care of our 8yr old Samoyed, Humphrey. They provided regular updates and photos on how he was doing allow us to enjoy our holiday. Humphrey was very content when we got home proving he had been provided lots of love while we were away.”


“Fantastic. Highly recommend James. Came home to very chilled out dogs and tidy house. Sent regular updates and photos and we were able to enjoy our few days away. Will use again. Thank you”


About: I have grown up with dogs and cats, having pets in my family home all my life and now owning two chihuahuas of my own. I am currently working part time Mon, Tues, Weds, for the military, so have spare time Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday to help people out when needed I ensure my home is a relaxing environment where animals are given plenty of space if they need it, but plenty of love when they want it. I have a secure walled garden . My own dog requires medication daily so I am fine administering this also.

“Sara was absolutely brilliant with Millie! From the first day of meeting I knew I could relax knowing Millie was is safe hands! Millie enjoyed her time with Sara and even stole her sock! Sara looked after Millie and our home so well I would defo have Sara come look after Millie and our home again! Highly recommend Sara!”


About: I’ve had 3 cats of my own who I adored: care included giving medication, feeding and cleaning. Multiple neighbours trust me to visit their cats and bunnies in their homes (new kittens too) whilst they were away on holiday. I’ve also looked after my aunty’s impressive total of 7 dogs and love animals of all sort! :) I’m a uni student with lots of free time due to being free for the summer! I work part-time at a local cafe mainly weekends but since it’s summer that will be changing. I get my rota 2 weeks in advance so drop me a message on the dates you need and I can easily work around it. I ensure I’ll know all of your pets needs and provide diligent care with lots of attention and play time. Communication is important to me so expect lots of updates and photos throughout the day!

About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals, but dogs are my absolute favourite. I have taken care of my own dogs, but friends and neighbours also rely on me to take care of their pets. I always make sure to account for the needs of the pets in my care, whether they need a walk, a bathroom break, or a tummy rub. I also have a supportive family that also loves dogs. The dogs in my care have a totally supportive environment. Pets in my care always have priority. I will only agree to take care of dogs if I know that I can put them first. I have a fenced garden and a supportive family. Dogs will have access to most of the house - wherever they feel most comfortable. It is a non-smoking house. The stairs can be dog-proofed if required.

About: I had a dog and cats as a child and looked after lots of friends and families pets ever since. From taking them to walks to having them stay over for a week or 2. When looking after dogs previously, it makes me so happy to see them get excited to see me again! I have 2 sons, 15 and 7, who also live with me. They have been taught how to be safe around animals ever since they were little and are very caring and attentive around them. They both love cats and dogs and are keen to get one full time. They have also enjoyed dog walks with me aswell as spending with family and friends pets. I think this would be a good way to give them some extra experience in caring for animals. I currently work part-time so have plenty of time to play and care for your lovely pets! I work 9-5 on a Wednesday, 8-4 on a Thursday and 9-3 on Fridays. All other days I'm generally free apart from popping out to do the usual chores or to go to the gym. I would be happy to look after your pet whilst I'm at work if they are OK and happy to be left for that amount of time. I will make enrichment toys to keep them occupied whilst im out of the house. Apart from a Wednesday, Thursday and friday I am available to also do drop ins and dog walks. I have a high fenced garden for your pups to enjoy. I also have a large field at the top of my street that is great for a dog walk. I do drive so if your dog is happy travelling, I would take them out on longer walks if needed. Your pets will be free to roam all areas of the house and I am happy for them to sit on the sofa with us for cuddles or sleep in my bed if that's what they are used to. It will be my main priority to make them feel safe and happy whilst they are with me. Please feel free to discuss any care your dog may need and I will do all I can to accommodate. If you require me to look after your pet in your home, I am only available on a friday evening as I have my children with me all other nights of the week.

About: As a true animal lover with a calm and caring nature, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand that every pet has their own personality, quirks, and needs and I take the time to get to know them individually. I offer more than just walks or sitting I provide a safe, fun, and loving environment where your dog will feel completely at ease. With a background in content creation and social media, I’m also happy to keep you updated with cute photos and videos throughout their stay or walk. Your dog’s happiness and safety are always my top priority. Pet care is a huge part of my weekly routine. I actually have a pup of my own, so their wellbeing is always a top priority. I’m used to planning my days around walks, feeding, playtime, and general care, so I naturally work pet sitting and dog walking into my schedule. I genuinely love being around dogs, and making sure they’re happy, safe, and well exercised is something I’m really passionate about. I care for pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I’ve had experience looking after dogs with health issues like cancer and joint problems, so I understand the importance of being gentle, patient, and attentive to their specific needs. Whether it’s giving medication, keeping them comfortable, or following a special routine, I’m confident in handling it with care.

About: PET CARE EXPERIENCE - I've taken care of animals for as long as I can remember, we have always had pets in my house and I was always the one to help out no matter what the task was. I love taking dogs for a walk either a long or short walk depending on your pet, I have had very energetic dogs but also calm dogs on walks growing up so I’m able to handle pulling etc. I know how to feed and clean dogs and cats and will always make sure they have been toileted on a walk as best I can. I have house sat for numerous people, I love the company as much as the animals do, the safety of your pets and your home is a big factor I consider when doing my job, it has always been my number one priority :) (REPEATED BOOKINGS - I’m happy to lock the rate of pay after a certain period with me so you’re not being charged more if prices go up) SCHEDULE - I am currently a second year uni student working part time. My days are Monday to Friday with different time schedules for the most part however, I can book days off ahead of time if it’s a repeat purchase. Don’t hesitate to message me for more information. I am available throughout the school holidays. I am very reliable, kind and always have a smile on my face. I’m not the type of person to let you down last minute, if something comes up I always try my hardest to let you know in a good amount of time. SAFETY, TRUST AND ENVIRONMENT - I have my own car so I’m happy to transport your pet for walks for example, in a certain area they like or if an emergency was to occur when I’m there or before I arrive I can easily get them to the vets safely if you as an owner could not get home to take them. I am happy to pet sit in your home and make sure your pets are looked after to the highest standards. I am happy to feed, walk, toilet and mentally stimulate your pets when I am caring for them. I like to engage animals in play to get their energy out which will also mentally stimulate them. If your pets like to sit around or are more senior meaning they don’t have much energy I'm happy to sit and chill with them too:) everyone needs a rest day.

“Colin will take the best care of your dog! Colin had a miniature schnauzer for over 17 years, so he has experience with small feisty dogs from the puppy stages to end-of-life care, including managing food allergies, hand feeding, and administering medications. Colin also often took care of my dog, an Australian Shepard mix, and I have complete confidence that he can safely care for your dog (no matter the size or temperament) with love and compassion and control (if you have specific concerns). Don't hesitate to reach out to Colin - I wholeheartedly recommend him.”

Ebonie’s selfless personality means she always puts the dogs first and this is why she is a brilliant pet sitter.”
