Alvin absolutely loves his walks with Charlotte! He goes for a good walk and burns off a lot of energy, ready for a lie down when he comes back. The pictures are amazing to see too, he definitely enjoys himself. Charlotte is lovely and 100% a dog person, treating all dogs as her own. Would definitely recommend ☺️

About: Hi! I'm Alison. I've been in the pet sitting community for almost 10 years, and look after dogs and cats, old and young. I'm a homeowner and live in a 3-bed terraced house, so there's plenty of room for your pet to roam. And there's a garden - no grass, but it's spacious and secure. I don't have any pets of my own. I'm fit so I can take your dog on a lovely long walk where needed. I'm confident administering medication if necessary. I have insurance to cover boarding, dog walking, drop-ins and sitting in your home. Let me know if you’d like to know more about that. I'll look after your pet as if they're one of the family! I can provide testimonials if required. I work mainly from home, and I'm fortunate to have a lot of flexibility, so I'm here 24/7 to cater to your pet's needs. I need to attend the office occasionally, but that's built into my calendar ahead of time My house and garden are secure, so your pet will be safe. It's just me at home so your pet will have my undivided attention.

Anna was lovely with Lottie. When Anna came in, Lottie was really scared but Anna was really patient with her and they had a lovely time.

About: I've always had animals growing up varying from cats and dogs to hamsters and fish so I understand the care and trust required to taking care of them. I have taken care of animals with my family from a young age including cat and dog sitting as well as daily check ins, socialising and feeds. Most recently I have been on standby for relatives pets when I'm available, usually during school holidays however decided that it's time to offer my services to the wider community. I have had experience training two of my own puppies as well as providing senior care to my relatives dog when sitting, including providing medication. Typically in term time, I am a teacher meaning my availability shortens to evenings and weekends however from June - September I work from home and can therefore be flexible to work around what's best for you and your pet. During school holidays my availability will become larger rather than being evening and weekend based. I'm currently working on a zero hour contract therefore my weekly schedule is super flexible as I work from home. I have my own dog so tend to take him out twice a day alongside a morning and evening feed with lots of playing in between! Due to my flexibility I can work around your schedule to ensure your furry friends are cared for. I am happy to come over for a home visit prior to your first booking to meet yourselves as well as your pet(s) to ensure they have a level of familiarity with me upon the first time we go on a walk or pop in for a visit. This allows you to see how comfortable your pet(s) will be in my company for peace of mind along side allowing me to gain any information from you such as feed times / amounts / walking routes your pet is most comfortable with or toys they enjoy playing with the most.

About: Hi, I’m Katy 👋 I’m an experienced, calm, and very attentive pet carer offering dog walking, drop-ins, and sitting for both dogs and cats. I’m especially good with sensitive, anxious, or older animals who need a slower pace, consistency, and gentle handling. I genuinely love being outdoors and tailor walks to your dog’s needs — whether that’s a long countryside ramble, a steady sniff-filled stroll, or just some fresh air and reassurance. For cats, I’m patient, respectful of boundaries, and happy to follow their routine exactly as they like it. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and content. Your pet’s wellbeing, comfort, and routine always come first 🤍 Im a stay at home mum and currently studying part-time so plenty of time to fit in playing, feeding and sorting out pups and cats. I can do drop ins morning, afternoon, evening and can do doggie walks in morning and afternoon. Happy to have dogs in the day, i have a fenced garden and live near lots of big outdoor spaces and great walks for them to stretch their legs. I also own a medium crate and/or happy to crate dogs at your home if need be. I drive and can come and pick up dogs for walks.

Phoebe was lovely with our dog. Our dog is nervous on initial meeting and considering Phoebe came to our house when we were out our dog was a little startled to see a stranger but Phoebe followed all instructions, sent a lot of updates which we highly appreciate and quickly our dog warmed to her.

About: I love dogs and grew up with a Bedlington terrier for 14+ years, I also worked day to day with a Cavachon for 1+ years. My family also recently welcomed a cocker spaniel pup into the family so I know the amount of cwtches, play-time and walks puppies need! Although my experience has mostly been with small to medium sized pets, I love spending time with animals of all shapes and sizes! After returning home from travelling I’m currently without a job so have am available all day, everyday to walk or check in on your furry friend! I know like us, each dog has their unique needs, wants and likes so I am more than happy to tailor their walks and check ins to suit yourself and them!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets for as long as I can remember. I'm confident with administering medication. I currently work on an adhoc basis and I'm looking to fill my free time by looking after your furry friends. Most days / times will be suited to me as I am a self employed makeup artist. I have plenty of experience pet sitting in other people's homes. I am a very clean person and treat others homes as if they were my own, I take pride in being an attentive person. All my services will be at the owners home as I currently live with my parents and we have a dog that isn't so keen on other furry friends haha.

Chloe is really great - our dog loves her so much and that says it all! She’s always on time and does everything you ask. When we get back it’s like no one has been there! Shes very tidy and takes care of the house as well as the dog. Can’t speak highly enough of her ♥️

Alvin absolutely loves Charlotte and is always excited for his walks with her. Charlotte is lovely and arranging suitable dates/times in advance is always easy. Alvin would be lost without his walks either Charlotte!
