Fleur is a very calm, confident dog sitter who took note of our many requirements but clearly focused on the dog and made sure she was well looked after and happy. She had Rosie all day and we came home to a relaxed, settled dog. Would recommend!

Indrė looked after my German Shepherd x collie Rocky for 2 nights and did an absolutely incredible job. Her communication is excellent and she stuck to the schedule and routine provided really thoroughly which is exactly what he needs; I felt really confident that Rocky was in good hands and came home to a happy dog! Indrė is extremely trustworthy and lovely and I will definitely be asking her to come back!

The best review I can give Ffion is Obi’s reaction when she came to sit again. He was so ecstatic to see her!. Ffion was communicative, reassuring, and treated obi so incredibly well. We will be booking again and again.

About: Hey! I am a 21 year old student veterinary nurse, completing my apprenticeship at a local practice. I have been dog walking and sitting for people locally for around 5 years, caring for them before or after work. I studied A levels in Animal Management and have worked since then at a doggy day care centre caring for over 20 dogs at once, whilst also at a farm. I also have two cheeky terriers. Therefore, I am used to a lot of mischief! I also own a lovely cat and have done numerous cat sittings too, staying at the clients house :) it’s fair to say, my life revolves around these four legged creatures- including rabbits and guinea pigs too! I am working full time at the moment, however I work both early and late shifts. Therefore I am happy to visit/ walk your pet before work, or if I’m on a late shift; in the evening afterwards. I am also available some weekends to stay over if needed!:) I currently am not looking after animals in my house due to my naughty terriers being enough to handle by themselves! They aren’t the biggest fan of new friends! However, I am more than happy to visit or stay at your house when needed!

Eli was fantastic. Summer took to her very quickly (which is very rare). Summer was having a hard time with the original schedule we had set up so Eli quickly adapted the timings and even stayed the night because my pup was having a hard time alone overnight. I will be using her in the future as long as she is available.

About: I may not have formal “professional” experience yet, but I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, from pugs to German Shepherds, and have always loved caring for them. I’ve looked after my own two dogs, who are 13 and 8 years old, so I’m very comfortable with the day-to-day care, routines and different needs that come with looking after dogs. I’m hoping this is the beginning of a future career working with animals, as my long-term dream is to become fully qualified and eventually have my own doggy daycare. I’m excited to gain more experience, meet lots of lovely dogs and, most importantly, make sure every dog I look after feels happy, safe and well cared for 🐾 I’m currently working full time but work from home Mondays and Fridays. My weekends are free and I can usually be available in the evenings too :) I am only able to to have one pet in my own home as I live with my parents, but if offering care in your house I will treat it with the utmost respect and according to whatever rules you set!

We think Coco and Oona would happily have kept us on holiday for another week! 😂 Jessie looked after our two girls, Coco and Oona, for a week while we were away, and we genuinely couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She followed all of our instructions, kept us updated with regular messages and photos, and gave the girls plenty of exercise, attention and cuddles. It was obvious from every update how much she genuinely loves animals. We've used pet sitters before and, although they've all been great, we've often noticed our dogs start to miss us after a few days. This time was completely different. Coco and Oona looked so happy and relaxed throughout the week that we started joking they might not want us to come home! To top it all off, we came home to a house that was absolutely spotless—honestly, even tidier than when we left it. It's rare to find someone you trust completely with both your pets and your home, but we can honestly say we've found our forever pet sitter. Thank you so much, Jessie!! we'll definitely be booking you again (assuming Coco and Oona don't try to book you themselves first! )

Alex is brilliant and we loved how she looked after out Benji our Bernese Mountain Dog. We were kept informed about him and the routine that was maintained. We received daily updates as well as photos of him. We are at ease whilst we were away. We would most definitely recommend Alex to anybody who is looking for a dog sitter. And we are already looking to do our next booking with Alex.

About: I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who truly loves animals. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats with different personalities and needs, including energetic pets, shy animals, and senior pets who need extra attention and comfort. What makes me different is the love and attention I give to every pet. I understand that pets are family members, so I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I can help with daily walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, basic care, and maintaining the pet’s routine. I am also attentive to details, organized, and reliable, which helps pets feel calm and secure in my care. Pet care fits very well into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time to walks, visits, and overnight stays when needed. On a daily basis, I am available in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on prior arrangements. I make sure to plan my day so I can fully focus on each pet without rushing, giving them the attention and care they need. I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep the environment clean and secure, and make sure pets feel calm and comfortable at all times. I supervise them carefully, provide fresh water, food, walks, and attention, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

Annie pet sat in our home for 8 nights looking after our dog. Annie was the ultimate professional, very communicative and responsive throughout the process and kept us regularly updated with pictures. We returned home to an immaculately clean house and a very well looked after pup. We would highly recommend Annie and we would certainly make use of her pet sitting services in the future.

Emily was a wonderful pet-sitter for our dog, Toby, and our guinea pigs, Willow and Hazelnut. When she came for an initial meet, Toby took to her straight away, which was absolutely wonderful as he can be very anxious (which is why he needs someone in our home)! She was very caring and thoughtful, making sure she had all the details for taking care of them and looking after things. She stayed in our house for 4 nights and days, and when we came home, Toby and the piggies all seemed very well cared for! Toby must have been at ease with her, as he went out for walks, which he won't do with just anyone. The communication was excellent while we were making arrangements, and all seemed to go well while we were away. I would absolutely book Emily again for more pet sitting and highly recommend her.

Zoe was absolutely fantastic taking care of our two dogs while we were on holiday. Gave us daily updates regarding the dogs and what they had been up to so that we didn’t worry. The house was in perfect condition when we returned. Could not recommend her enough. Thank you Zoe.
