“Couldn’t be happier with the care provided from Dean! He was so easy to work with and we received lots of pictures and updates while we were away. Can’t recommend him enough!!!”


“This was the first time we had left Rick and George and I was concerned they would not be happy but Taylor was brilliant with them, even taking Rick’s many ‘gifts’ in her stride! We would happily recommend Taylor to friends and family and will definitely be using her again. Thank you Taylor.”


“Eve was totally amazing with our cats. She is exceptional. We had photos of them whilst we were away which made us relieved knowing they were happy and safe. Funny photos too. Happy cats when we got home, lots of cuddles, they were looking for Eve expecting her to come in. Ahww. I can't say enough about Eve. She is a cat whisperer. She is brilliant. Eve visits you and your cats prior to looking after them. We will definitely be having Eve looking after Boe and Strax again. More than 10/10. Thank you Eve. You are a diamond!!!”


About: I’m a WFH professional who absolutely adores animals. I love to walk and be active so your dog will always be throughly walked and cared for. I start work at 9am so I can do any drop ins or walks before then, I’m also able to do drop ins during the day if needed. Working from home means I can take my laptop anywhere and spend every break either walking, playing or just lounging on the sofa with your pet. I work from home most of the week, so I can be available for drop ins, walks and home sitting. With plenty of breaks I usually spend these taking the dogs out for a walk or playing ball through the house. I’m not offering this service due to my current housing situation. If this changes then I will let you know in the future. Thank you.

About: With over 12 years of pet care experience, I bring a lifetime of love and devotion to your furry family members.

I’m currently doing research so I spend most the time at home and cherry on the top, even if I go out for few hours my husband is always home to look after your buddy. At both the owner's home and my own, safety, I conduct a thorough initial consultation to understand each pet's unique needs and preferences, ensuring a seamless transition. At the owner's home, I maintain a clean, hazard-free environment, adhering to their routines and rules. I prioritize trust by providing regular updates and respecting their privacy.

Chloe H.Star Sitter
“Chloe is responsible when walking Btruno, knowing and understanding his needs as he’s a reactive dog to most people and other dogs but this is improving. Bruno also enjoys Chloe’s company and happy to go on walks with her.”


Alison W.
“I have known Alison for many years, since school days. I was delighted to find that she had moved back to our home town and was even more delighted when she offered to pet sit for my Dalmatian dog and Siamese cat. Alison is totally reliable, trustworthy, respectable and caring. From the moment she met Mr Black (dog) and Spooky (cat) it was clear that we would have no worries leaving them in her care. Alison made detailed notes of any information we gave her regarding the personalities of the animals and how they would normally be cared for. Mr Black sulks in our absence but Alison found ways to motivate him for walks as well as giving him the love and affection he craves. Spooky is apprehensive of strangers but was totally at ease with Alison. During our absence Alison kept us updated on request of how the animals were doing and we were content to know they were being well cared for and had been left in safe hands. I highly recommend Alison as a dog and/or house sitter.”


Sucheta M.Star Sitter
“As a friend who has known Sucheta since childhood, I can attest to her deep love for nature and animals, especially dogs. She has always been a soft-spoken, kind-hearted individual, with a natural ability to connect with and care for animals. She treats every dog as if they were her own, providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve. Her gentle demeanor and compassionate nature make her an awesome human being, not just for her furry friends, but for everyone she encounters. I have no doubt that she would provide safe, loving care and exceptional customer service to anyone who entrusts their pets to her care. Thank you Monica”
