About: Hello! My name is Susanna, I'm 26 years old and I live in Manchester. I am mum of 2 cats here and 4 cats in Italy. I love animals and I can't wait to meet and spend some time with your pets! Don't hesitate to contact me to have a chat, I can tell you a bit more about myself! I can take care of your fur babies after 3 pm Monday-Friday, and all day Saturday and Sunday. Feel free to reach out to discuss your pet care needs and to schedule a time that works best for you! I own 2 cats and 4 cats grow up with me in Italy so I am fully aware of how to spend time with cats. I used to have a dog, for 15 years and unfortunately passed away recently.
About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’m very patient, responsible, and love giving pets the attention and affection they deserve. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, and basic training, and always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. Your furry friend will be treated like part of my family! I’m currently studying part-time, so I have plenty of flexible time to take care of pets. I’m available for walks and playtime in the afternoons and evenings on weekdays, and I’m fully available on weekends. Your pet will always get my full attention and care. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with a safe indoor space and nearby parks for walks. I always make sure pets feel comfortable and secure, keeping their routine and diet consistent. I can also provide updates and photos to owners for peace of mind.
“Super happy pooch! I booked Ferlin for the weekend and came home to a very happy pooch. Ferlin was great at making arrangements for a pre-visit and kept me constantly updated on walks and feeding times. Will definitely book again.”

“Emma is a great carer. We've worked together on Carbee's regular weekly walkie and she also stayed in our flat to look after Carbee while we are away for weekend. Emma has been very trustable, patient and with great communication! Definitely recommend her services”

“Absolutely amazing with my Labrador. I booked quite last minute for walks during the day as I was busy with work, but Sul was really accommodating and sent me photos and updates. It put my mind at ease knowing Peanut was being well looked after. Would highly recommend, I’ve already booked again!”

“Celina was great with my dog Taco. She made sure to ask all the right questions regarding what he likes/dislikes. As a senior dog he can very particular about some things but Celina made sure he was always comfortable and doing things at his pace. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking again.”

“Gabriella is really professional and communicates well. Even took time to come and meet us prior to the walk. She quickly bonded with Leia. I will use her again for sure in the future.”

About: I am 52 years old and have fed, walked, mucked out and administered medication (pills) to: dogs, cats, budgies and a rabbit. I have had a loving connection to animals since childhood. I respect their right as individuals being mindful of their needs for companionship and down time. I can provide caring and respectful interaction with your companion animal and carry out instructions for feeding and their other routines as well as make sure that your property is kept secure and tidy. I am physically fit, (running, cycling, swimming and climbing). I love to get out and about especially hiking/walking/running at your dog's pace and I love to play them at their own games, tug of war and fetch! I provide regular photo and video updates and supervise their care routines. I have 11 years of monthly volunteer experience at a vegan ran animal rescue sanctuary, which keeps rescued pigs, sheep, cows, turkeys, geese, ducks, an alpaca and also had a sadly departed rescue deer. I have also volunteered at Kerala animal rescue in India for stray dogs (rescue, neuter, vacinate and release). I can provide references upon request. I'm currently working from home and enjoy taking breaks to exercise and interact with companion animals. We usually play their favourite game or walk/run either locally or on an exciting trip. I usually sit with companion animals in their home, and get a sense whether they want to play or chill out. I also provide their food and medication per regular routine.
About: Having grown up with dogs my entire life, since living in the city I’ve been looking to fill a doggie shaped hole in my heart🩷 I’ve had a range of breeds from spaniels to labradors and retrievers and even a bichon frisée🐾 All of these dogs I’ve had from puppies so I have experience in crate and potty training too! After boarding dogs for friends and colleagues the past few years, myself and my partner Kaydan decided that Rover just makes sense for us! If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out, we’d love to meet your furry friends🫶🏼 We both work flexibly and so can care for your doggies in the week. Or on the weekend, we love heading to dog friendly cafes and pubs to get them out and about with us🐕 We live in a large, 2 bed duplex so we have plenty of space and comfy sofas for furry friends to snuggle up on🐶 We’re both super active and so love going for dog walks to local parks, we also drive and love to get out of the city and to some green spaces in Greater Manchester🌳 No garden? No problem. Despite being in a duplex, we’re on the ground floor and have a fenced and secure courtyard with grass areas just a ball’s throw away from our front door!🚪 We love to keep tails wagging and so enjoy enrichment time and games with our fluffy visitors to keep them happy and stimulated - no boredom here!🦴
“Luis was great from start to finish. Very communicative, and I felt very safe leaving Wilbur in his care. He took Wilbur on two walks in a day and was a great help. Will definitely be using his services again.”

About: We have raised Carlton from puppy whilst living at a flat. He is well house trained and very good with other dogs. We have the knowledge and patience for puppies and are open to all dog personalities. Carlton is a Shetland sheep dog which are known for their barking and intelligence. We know how to deal with excessive barking and how to keep a dog mentally occupied. We are both working from home full time. One is us is self employed so has a very flexible schedule which can be helpful with collection/ drop off. We are out with Carlton around every three hours, so your dog will be sure to get exercise during their time with us! As mentioned, we have a very friendly dog who loves to play with other dogs. We have space to crate your dog if necessary (we would just need to borrow the crate). Plenty of toys for them to play with!
About: I took care of my own dog for 13 years, from when she was a puppy all the way through her senior years (beagle owners, I feel you!). I handled pretty much everything, feeding, walks, vet visits, always making sure she felt loved (with lots of kisses and snuggles). I genuinely love being around animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. You can rest assured I’d treat your dog like my own. :) I just finished my masters degree, so my schedule is flexible! I’m available for weekday and weekend bookings, just reach out and let’s chat. :) I know how much your pet means to you. I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for, just like I did with my own.
About: As an experienced dog owner, I am an attentive and loving dog-lover who will be able to give your dog the care and attention it needs. I personally trained my family dog, so am patient, and understand the need for lots of attention, walks and enrichment time! However, I also understand your dog will need a calm environment whilst you are away, and can provide this, as I live in a lovely set of flats with access to lots of grassy areas, and can walk your dog twice a day. I have a spacious and well-lit flat, with quiet neighbours in a nice part of Manchester. I have no other pets, and am well versed in dog behaviour cues so will ensure your dog feels comfortable and has whatever it could possibly need! I have a dog-friendly office with well-behaved dogs allowed, so if your pooch needs to stay with me for an extended amount of time, they will never be left alone (I can also ask to work from home if you'd prefer your dog to not go to the office, I am flexible). I am an early bird, so can get up early to walk your dog in the morning before work. I work in a lovely, dog-friendly office 3 days a week (Mon, Weds, Thurs), but can request to work from home if necessary. However, if your dog comes in with me, they will have their own area next to me, and walked for 45 minutes at lunch time. They will also be taken for wees every hour as my office has multiple nice grassy areas near the office, and is in a pedestrianised part of Media City. My flat is kept tidy, but is very cosy with lots of comfy places for your dog to curl up! It is very secure, with two sets of fobbed doors to get to the flat, so your dog won't escape/no one can get in. I will always ensure your dog remains on a lead for their safety, and we have multiple grassy areas that they can run around in near the flat. I am an active person so will take them out often even though I live in a flat.
