House Sitting Lydd

“We were worried about leaving our dogs with a house sitter as we have never done this before and it was a bit of an experiment. We need not have worried, Elise arrived early and was very confident with our dogs which put us at ease before we left. Elise sent through photos during the day to show how content the dogs were, particularly Jack who can be a handful if you don't know what you are doing with a large breed puppy. Elise has a very calm relaxed way about her that ensures that the dogs are calm and content too. The experience was top notch for both us and the dogs and we would certainly recommend Elise to any owners who need to use the house sitting service.”

“Would thoroughly recommend Yu. She was really quick to respond to my request, and has a very calm and friendly approach which immediately puts you at ease. She sent updates throughout the day and my dog Finn was super relaxed and happy after Yu looked after him for the evening.”

“Sallyanne did an overnight stay in our home with our two little dachshunds. Bean & Bear took to her immediately & we felt very relaxed leaving the boys with her. We received regular updates & arrived home to 2 very happy boys who had had nice long walks and lots of attention. We would absolutely recommend Sallyanne - she’s brilliant!”

From dogs and cats to rabbits and chickens, I’ve looked after lots of different personalities and really enjoy getting to know what makes each pet happy, comfortable and relaxed. My schedule is very flexible at the moment, so I’m happy to work around your routine and do my best to accommodate your preferred times. I also have plenty of time to give your pets the attention, care and company they deserve. I’ll always follow your instructions and your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, while giving them plenty of attention and making sure they’re safe and comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.

“From the original messages and meeting Jed to the actual sit itself, Jake was fantastic and very professional. You can tell he has a great passion for working with and looking after dogs and animals and he really gets them. He also has great understanding with pet parents, around any anxiety and needs of your beloved pet. Our boy Jed, had a wonderful day with Jake and he kept us updated throughout with lovely pictures. We shall definitely be using Jake again to look after Jed.”

“I chose Hollie because she has cats of her own and, on meeting Ariel, immediately made friends. Hollie was terrific, sending me little videos of Ariel during their time together and communication was top notch. I will definitely use her again.”

Beatrice D.

“All I can say is amazing! Hollie is a very caring and organised dog sitter. Our Jack Russell is quite a nervous dog but Hollie soon made her feel relaxed. The photos were adorable! Hollie left our house in an immaculate state. We will definitely rely be using her again and can highly recommend her.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and there’s nothing I love more than making sure they feel happy, loved and right at home. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats belonging to friends and family, from little stays of a few days to looking after them for several weeks while their owners are away. I’ve always loved having them around and have received lovely feedback from their owners. As I work from home, your pet won’t be short of company, cuddles or attention throughout the day. I’m naturally active and love getting out for daily walks, so having a four-legged walking companion is always a bonus! I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big thing, so I’ll always take the time to get to know their individual personality, routine and needs. My aim is simple: to make sure your pet feels just as comfortable, cared for and loved as they would at home. I’d love to become a familiar, trusted face for pets and their owners in my local community. 🐾 I work from home, so I’m around for most of the day and have plenty of flexibility to give pets the attention and care they need. I always take a lunchtime walk, usually around 30 minutes to an hour, and I also enjoy a longer walk after work. I’d love to have a dog join me on these walks! I’ve cared for my mum’s dog, Charlie, and her two cats, Milo and Casper, for over two weeks at a time on several separate occasions. During these stays, I was responsible for Charlie’s daily routine, including taking him for at least two walks each day, keeping him company and making sure he was happy and entertained with plenty of playtime, toys and treats. Charlie can be quite a picky eater, so I also made sure he was eating properly by patiently encouraging him at mealtimes and rewarding him afterwards. I also looked after Milo and Casper, making sure they were well fed, comfortable and cared for while their mum was away. I’ve also looked after my friend’s cat, Molly, over a weekend while she was away, making sure she was a happy kitty and got all the attention and affection she deserved. I understand how important it is to give pets a safe, calm and familiar environment, while following their individual routines and giving them plenty of attention and affection.

“We couldn’t have asked for better sitters than Lorenzo and Yelyzaveta! They took amazing care of our two dogs ( jack russell and a collie cross) while we were travelling to Australia. They checked in regularly , providing updates and photos as well as to ask any questions regarding the dogs behaviour to make sure it was normal for the pups ( it was!), which really showed how attentive and caring they are. One of our dogs requires a couple of medications , and they handled that without any issues. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love spending time with dogs — our two were happy, relaxed, and clearly very comfortable when we got home. They also looked after the house beautifully and went above and beyond to leave everything in great shape, even making sure there was still enough cooked dog food ready and washing the sheets as our in-laws were arriving straight after. We’re so grateful for the care and attention they gave to both our pets and our home. We would absolutely have them back anytime and can’t recommend them highly enough!”

“Yevgeniia, was superb, from the first time she met Flo till the time we got back from being away, Flo was treated like a queen, nice photos and kept in touch to let us know how Flo was, the house was kept very immaculate, I would recommend Yevgeniia all day long, we will be in contact again to rebook Yevgeniia.”

About: Hi, I’m Em! I live by the sea with my incredibly sweet and friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Olive. I can offer you the kind of care I provide my own dog - which is kind, patient, fun and responsible! I have completed a Canine Emergency Response course and carry a dog first aid kit with me when not at home, and have been able to help other people’s dogs in a crisis. I am calm, caring and vigilant. I will treat every dog as the wonderful unique characters they are, taking the time to get to know them and respecting their preferences. I am a good communicator and will be as flexible and helpful as I possibly can. I want you and your dog(s) to have a great experience so that they bound up to me in excitement - that’s what makes it worthwhile! I work from home most of the week and usually have quite a bit of flexibility to work around your needs… Weekends are also possible with notice! In front of my house is a big lovely park, and behind my house is the beach - a doggie heaven! Inside my house there are some stairs to get up (I can carry dogs under 10kg if needed) and then my house is free for the dogs to explore. I have it set up so there are no plants or items that can be chewed, and I have an abundance of dog beds and toys. The dogs are welcome on my sofas and beds as they wish, and I have a shower and bathtub with specialist dog products should they need a refresh! I have cooling fans and open the balcony doors in the summer, and in the winter I have heated blankets and heaters. There are high quality treats should they be allowed - but will follow any instructions for feeding carefully. I provide toilet breaks and walk my own dog 4 times a day (20+ mins a time) which is roughly every 5 hours, but I can adapt to another dogs routine if needed!

“I would like to highly recommend Leah as a pet sitter.Although I have only met Leah a couple times of times so far, she made an instant wonderful impression on me. I own a very wary nervous dog who normally takes a long time to trust new people, remarkably and completely out of character my dog warmed to Leah immediately.Leah has a brilliant warm energy around her and a natural affinity for animals that dogs can clearly sense. Apart from being fantastic with pets she is a warm and friendly person to be around and deal with.I have complete peace of mind leaving my dog in her care and whole-heartedly recommend her Shirley 30/6/26”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 20 years, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a child , our house was filled with dogs (Jack Russells, Border Collie and Labradors, not all at the same time), horses, budgies, tortoises and even goldfish, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I’m calm, patient and confident with all kinds of pets, and I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe, loved and relaxed when they’re away from their owners. Whether your doggie requires companionship, regular walks or simply keeping to their routine, I will give every dog the same care and attention that I’d want for my own. I’m retired and at home all day, so your dog will have company, attention and a calm, settled environment. My home is quiet and relaxed, which makes it especially suitable for nervous dogs, older dogs or those who simply enjoy a slower pace. There are countryside walks on my doorstep and the beach isn't too far away if you don't mind me taking your dog there. I live on a quiet road with a small, secure fenced garden where dogs can relax safely. Countryside walks are right on my doorstep, giving every dog plenty of fresh air, gentle adventure and a peaceful change of scenery. 🐾 My Experience Animals have been part of my life from the very beginning. I grew up in a home full of pets — dogs, budgies, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, you name it, we had it. Later, when I married, we had a succession of Dobermans who were very much part of the family. Our last one sadly passed away two years ago, and caring for other people’s dogs now brings me a lot of joy and purpose. Your dog will be treated with the same love, patience and respect I’ve always given my own.

About: I have been surrounded by animals all my life, growing up with pets of my own, including a Siberian cat. I truly love caring for animals and feel completely at ease with both cats and small, active dogs (like Jack Russells and similar breeds). Over the past year, I have been actively pet sitting in the UK, providing dedicated care for cats and small dogs. I understand their unique personalities — whether a cat needs gentle patience and quiet time or an energetic dog needs active play and attention. am responsible, attentive to details and routines, and will treat your furry family members with the absolute best care and love while you are away! I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time dedicated to caring for pets. I am available for daily dog walking, drop-in visits to feed and play with cats, and cat boarding in my home. I always follow the owner’s preferred routine to keep pets happy and relaxed. For cat boarding, I offer a safe, indoor-only apartment environment fully set up for their comfort. I treat every pet with patience, love, and individual attention. My 8-year-old daughter is very gentle and respectful with animals, making our home a warm and friendly space. When visiting your home or walking dogs, I prioritize safety, clear communication, and keeping you updated with photos!
