About: I have looked after a dog my mum works for. This included making sure he ate , taking him on his daily walks , feeding and playing with him. I have been around this dog for years now it sometimes comes to my house and I look after him there. I have stayed overnight with the dog and carried on the same tasks everyday.I have recently stayed in Spain for 1 month and looked after a female dog. Took her on walks 3 times a day, bathed her and fed her. I’ve also taken care of a family friends dog when ever they needed me to.I have a dog of my own so looking after a dog is easy for me. I have experienced working with big and small dogs. I am currently unemployed, ready to start working immediately. I have a flexible availability and can work 7 days a week. In the hours between the morning and evenings, can even do overnight stays. If I have to look after a dog at my house I will make sure it’s safe and feels comfortable around his/hers surroundings. I will make sure they are looked after properly and complete the same tasks as told and as I always have when looking after the dogs. When working at a pet owners house I will make sure they are satisfied with the task they left me with but most importantly gain and keep their trust.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. Over the years, I’ve gained experience in handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies and senior dogs requiring special care. I can also administer medication, provide basic training, and ensure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m currently studying part-time, which allows me plenty of time to care for your pets! I’m available for boarding on Monday to Wednesday and the weekends and for pet sitting or walks on weekdays after 2 PM. I ensure every pet in my care gets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm and loving environment where they’ll receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Whether your pet enjoys cuddles, interactive play, or a quiet space to relax, I tailor my care to their needs. I can also follow any special routines or requirements to ensure they feel at home and stress-free.

About: have over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, including my own rescued cat who is now 8 years old. Over the years, I’ve rescued and cared for nearly a hundred stray animals, many of whom were sick, injured, or elderly. Through this work, I developed strong skills in giving medication, administering subcutaneous injections, and providing gentle care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. When caring for dogs, I’m especially attentive to their exercise and emotional comfort, understanding how important trust and routine are for their well-being. I’m patient, compassionate, and deeply love animals – I treat every pet as if they were my own. As a freelancer, I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home. On most days, I only need to be out for 4–5 hours at most, usually after 5pm. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time during the day to care for pets, whether it's feeding, playing, or just providing company. For dogs, I can offer up to three walks a day if needed, each lasting at least 30 minutes, with time for outdoor play and toilet breaks. My routine is calm, consistent, and pet-friendly – ideal for pets who enjoy companionship and a steady rhythm. My home is currently pet-free, which means any cat or dog staying with me will enjoy a calm, dedicated space of their own. I live in a pet-friendly area with a secure, enclosed park just downstairs, complete with real grass – perfect for safe outdoor time. For dogs, there are also great opportunities for socialisation, with a larger open park nearby and easy access to the beautiful Olympic Park. I always tailor the environment and routine to each pet's needs, whether that means quiet time for a shy cat or playful walks for an active dog. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I do everything I can to create a stress-free, loving space where pets feel at home.

About: Hello! My name is Theo. I'm a 37 year old professional (TV producer) living in London. I have my own flat sandwiched between Canada Water and Surrey Quays. I love dogs and have years and years of experience looking after them. I would love to lend a hand to care for yours :) Theo Pet care is a natural part of my day. I structure my schedule around feeding times, walks, and play sessions so pets get the attention they need when they need it. Whether it’s starting the morning with an energising walk, taking midday breaks for play and outside time, or winding down with evening routines, caring for animals fits seamlessly into my day to day life. I make sure they’re never rushed, and that each pet gets quality time, exercise, and affection every day. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort come first. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment, free from hazards, with secure spaces for rest and play. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding times, exercise, and any special care instructions. On walks, keep a close eye on surroundings to avoid unsafe situations. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well-loved while you’re away. I live alone in my own apartment, so it's peaceful and safe.

It doesn’t, I work from home and my daughter loves to get picked from school by me and our caring dog, we never leave them alone. We make sure they enjoy their time as much as we do, we love to take them out for walks by the river and my daughter loves to play with them and cuddle as much as I do :)

About: Hi, i’m an artist and part time yoga teacher, I work from my studio at home. I love animals, something I discovered about myself eighteen years ago, whilst living on an idyllic holiday resort on the Greek islands. It was there I found an abandoned helpless puppy, thrown into a trashcan on the sidewalk. I didn't know it then but this was to be a defining moment and would change my life forever. The love from an animal is always unconditional and has filled me with joy!!! I’d never experienced this kind of love, what a blessing! Some years later we returned to the UK together. He lived a full and happy life and when some, three or so years ago, we lost him to cancer, I was totally crushed. I’ve since adopted a Greek rescue and he`s adorable. I love all dogs and cats alike. I make it my primary focus to give them long walks, the best of nature`s lush and green. At least an hour plus in the mornings and again in the evenings, I'm a firm believer that getting a dog outdoors for plenty of fresh air and meandering walks, makes for a more happy and contented dog. These walks in nature have helped me too. I never walk less than an hour. And I tend to gravitate to more remote areas. I've grown accustomed to the great outdoors my days wouldn't be complete without this lush of green open oasis. I’m around Totteridge and Whetstone area, so lots of interesting walks to be had. I tend to go to Whetstone stray fields, Dorlands nature reserve, Totteridge fields reserve and Brook farm, alternating between these areas to make it interesting for your dog. I’m available for walks in the morning or evening. This is an area full of woodland, pretty meadows, lakes and open fields. These style walks offer your pets everything they need, foraging sniffing and chasing/playing, both soothing and invigorating for all dogs of all breeds and ages. I administer medication on a daily basis for my pet dog as we manage a condition he has called Leishmania. I am flexible/responsible and accommodating to all the needs of pet care. I can tailor the walks to suit your pet/pets. It’s important to me he/she is comfortable and relaxed around me or other dogs. I will only ever have 3 dogs on any walk. And this reflects my fee. I consult with the owners as to their personal preferences. But on the first few walks I prefer to keep dogs on leads just until we build a bond. I like to inquire from the pet owner on specific dietary needs and how frequent the walks should be. I like to be informed on everything before I take on any job.
