House Sitting Little Layton

About: DBS CHECKED 🐾 About Me Hi, I’m Maggie! 🐶❤️ I’ve recently moved from Bristol to Blackpool and I’m excited to meet lots of new four-legged friends in the area. I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely believe they’re part of the family. Whether your dog loves a long walk on the beach, exploring Stanley Park, or simply having some company and cuddles at home, I’m happy to tailor the day around them and their personality. We’re also lucky enough to have our own lovely cockapoo, Basil! 🐾 Basil absolutely loves meeting and playing with other dogs, so he’s very happy to have a new friend around. However, as my partner and I live in a house with plenty of space, we can easily keep dogs separate when needed. This includes separate feeding times, walks and sleeping arrangements if your dog prefers their own space or you request it. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel daunting, so I’ll always treat your pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, cuddles and reassurance while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can see how they’re getting on. 📸❤️ Whether your dog is energetic and loves adventures, a little nervous and needs extra patience, or is happiest curled up on the sofa, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and cared for. I’d love the opportunity to welcome your dog into our home and give them a fun, safe and loving stay! 🐕🌊🌳 I am currently working from home with a flexible working schedule from 9 or 10am until 4 or 5pm Monday-Friday, within higher education so will be available continuously in the evening and available intermittently throughout the working day. I am also available 24/7 on weekends! This means that your pet will always be supervised and will always have someone in the home with them to pamper and care for them. I offer boarding, house sitting and dog walking, offering boarding to one mid sized dog per time or two smaller dogs or cats. My dogs walks will be however long you request up to an hour or longer on weekends. I am happy to accept last minute bookings. I first started pet sitting in summer of 2022 and although I have not been pet sitting for too long, I have had so many lovely moments getting to know the pet as an individual and going on lovely walks with them all round just becoming a member of the family. I understand all animals are unique and would love to make sure you're pet is as comfortable as possible with me - to make sure this happens I would love to know what their normal routine is, what foods they like and don't like, if they like being around other dogs, like a cuddle ect - to try and give them as much normalcy as possible. As your pet will be a guest with us and on their own little holiday from home, we are happy for the pets to sleep wherever they would when at home normally, whether that be their own bed, on the sofa or just on the carpet! We will always have them be as comfortable as possible ❤️

About: I’ve had my cat since she was 8 weeks old—she’s now around 2 and a half, happy, healthy, and spoiled! Since joining Rover, I’ve also looked after a puppy named Reuben for about 6 weeks, and I’ve completed a few cat sitting jobs. I understand the care and attention pets need, and I’m always happy to help other pet owners feel at ease when they’re away. I’m currently unemployed and looking for work, so I’m fully available for pet care. I enjoy spending time with animals and like to keep busy with side hustles and helping out other pet owners. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine right now. I live in a spacious ground floor flat with a small shared garden. It’s very cat-friendly with toys, a cat tower, and cozy spots to relax. My cat enjoys going out on nice days and always comes back home safely. Pets are welcome on the sofa and bed—just like my own! I take pride in creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for animals.

“Georgia was amazing! She kept us updated all night with pictures of how Jim was getting on and from what we could see he was so comfortable with her. She has a wealth of expertise and knowledge when it comes to puppies which was a huge relief, even giving us tips and guidance on what to do to help certain situations! She even took Jim on a walk whilst minding him at our home which she didn’t have to do but he absolutely loved it! We came home after our night out to dog calming music left on the tv for him between her leaving and us getting back which was just the sweetest gesture! 100% we will be using Georgia again for Jim!”

About: I have experience caring for Border Terriers, Jack Russells, Llasa Apso, and have worked as a dog groomer in the past. I am DBS checked. I welcome a meet-and-greet before the first booking so that you and your dog can get to know me. I currently work part-time from my own home so I am very flexible for drop-in visits throughout the week, offering daytime or/and evening slots. As the owner of an indoor cat, I am familiar with the needs of cats living in flats, from carefully checking window security to keeping litter trays spotless. I will treat your cat and home with respect, provide attentive and consistent care, and keep you updated throughout your time away. I am also happy to arrange an introductory meeting before your first booking, giving you and your cat the chance to get to know me. I look forward to meeting you and your cat and providing the caring, dependable support you both deserve.

“This was our first time using both Rover and Michael to look after our two dogs and home while we were away on holiday,and the service we received was great. From the initial first contact and home visit through to the personal handover on our return was just what we needed. We returned to happy dogs and a well looked after home.”

About: I have grown up with all kinds of pets from a very young age and most recently owned a rabbit (Domino), who reached the grand age of 12. I have looked after many dogs over the years, including my sister's Cocker Spaniel, a friend's French Bulldog and a family who owned 5 dogs including Chihuahuas, a German Shepherd and a Staffie. I work full-time (Monday - Friday), 9am until 5pm. Most of my evenings and weekends are available. I am currently unable to have my own pet but will gladly help to look after everyone else's in the meantime. I currently have no pets at home, so your pet will get my full attention. I enjoy fluffy cuddles even if your pet has white fur and I'm all in black! I am more than happy to follow a routine you already have in place and appreciate every pet is has different needs

About: We have had a dog in our family for the last 15 years....minus a few years after we lost our beloved Collie cross Sam. We are used to have small and large dogs in the family and both our boys love dogs. We live a 10 minute walk from the beach and round the corner from large fields for ball chasing. We would love to welcome your dog into our home and we have a very large fenced garden for them to play in too. I work full time but 3 days from home. We do have our own dog that I take care of too so your pet will have a friend. Walks are at 7am...on the school run...lunchtime and evening before bed so your pet will have plenty of exercise. I have a large fenced garden with a lot of space for exercise and can also crate your pet if needed for comfort. They will get a lot of love and attention.

“Graham came round early, was friendly and clearly knew what he was doing with Diego! When I got home a happy Diego. Thank you for a brilliant service!”

About: I am a Registered Veterinary Nurse with a passion for providing the best care to all pets. I had my dog for almost 13 years and prior to that, we would dog sit for family friends going away. I have recently adopted an older rescue cat on lifelong medication. With my profession I am comfortable with caring for all kinds of pets including reptiles and rodents. I also have experience medicating a myriad of species so would be happy to assist with this if your pet(s) require anything throughout the day. Growing up I've volunteered and worked at a number of different kennels and catteries local to me and I have since been volunteering at a cat sanctuary for almost three years and love spending my free time with animals. I am a very active person with my favourite hobbies being walking and going to the gym so you can rest assured I would meet your pets exercise and enrichment needs to keep them happy and settled in your absence.
My services include home boarding with your pets, walking, bathing, medicating, house visits and spending quality time with your pets in your absence. I’m currently working part time so my mornings and evenings are typically free on the days I work and I have the whole day free on my days off to spend with your fur-babies I’m comfortable keeping your pets as close to their typical routine as possible to keep them stress-free. I can walk and medicate at the same times of day and can regularly update you with pictures for piece of mind

About: From an older lab to husky puppies and rescues I have always been surrounded by pups. My lovely but anxious rescued lurcher has shown me how a little love can allow our companions personalities to bloom. I’m an undergraduate student on summer break so I have all the time necessary to give your best friend all the attention they might need. I have a large home in town centre and a gated outdoor area. Just a short walk from the beach there is plenty of opportunity for sunset walks.

About: Dog mad since childhood and after losing my own dog in 2009, I set up a rescue in his honour. Over 15 years of helping rescue and rehome dogs as well as injury and trauma rehab. I’ve also run a dog shelter single handed with over 40 dogs. All proceeds go towards my dog rescue project 🐾 I am fully dedicated to dogs. My project ........ involves me working and fundraising in the UK and then going abroad to rescue in places of critical need. They last 6 years I’ve been doing this mostly between London and Turkiye where they passed a law to massacre stray dogs. When I’m in London, I stay at my best friend’s place near Vauxhall station to keep overheads low. I usually care for dog’s at the owner’s home but can occasionally accommodate depending on which rescue dogs I’m caring for at the time.
