“Sebastian was fantastic with Hector - available last minute which really helped us, was super communicative and made sure Hector had a good exercise. Will definitely be rebooking!”

“This is the second time Anna has taken out my little dog Winston and she does such a fantastic job. She really takes care with following instructions and sends lots of photo and video updates - which are really appreciated. I’ll definitely be using Anna again in the future. Thanks Anna!”

“Amy has been a fantastic regular dog walker for us for awhile now, but today she went above and beyond when she came in and found our dog limping badly. I was traveling for work and wasn't reachable right away but Amy continued to try to reach me until she did, sending videos and information so I could assess the situation. She didn't leave until Pita was all sorted. Really appreciate such a caring and dedicated walker!!”

“I was extremely happy with the service Ella provided. She responded straight away to all of my messages. She took Paddy on a lovely long walk and he was very happy when I got home. She also posted lots of great pictures along the way. Thank you Ella!”

About: Cheapest rates the area! Doing a discount at the moment to build my profile and reviews. I owned a dachshund for many years and genuinely love being around dogs and the companionship they offer. I’m kind, fair, and firm, and I always make the effort to understand each dog’s personality and needs to ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for while boarding. I am self-employed with flexible working hours from Monday to Friday, which enables me to fully integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. This flexibility allows me to consistently meet dogs’ exercise, feeding and supervision requirements. I care for pets with a kind, fair and consistent approach, always taking the time to understand each dog’s individual needs, routine and temperament so I can provide a safe and positive experience. In my home, dogs have access to the living room and kitchen areas and are welcome on the sofa. I ensure dogs are walked on a lead, fed according to the owner’s instructions, and given regular, timely toilet breaks. My aim is to make each dog feel comfortable, secure and well cared for throughout their stay.
About: Hi, I am Marina, you local pet expert. I was fascinated by animals since I was a child. I enjoyed helping my aunt to care for sick animals at her vet clinic. 12 years ago I started to look after pets for my friends on ad hoc basis. One day I realised just how rewarding it is and that the pets look forward to my visits. My client list grew and I decided to become a professional pet sitter. I am available to look after your furry friend most do the days. I know life could be challenging, so I am available on a short notice. I have fully fenced garden and a open space plan in the house, so your animal won’t feel claustrophobic. When your furry friend stays with us, I walk the dog at least twice a day for over an hour each time. We live near Morden hall park, where gods have space to run around. Have lots of dogs toys balls/flying rings to play outside.
About: Experienced dog & cat sitter in Morden, next to Morden Hall Park 🌳 🏠 I live in a house with my partner with a fenced in, secure garden. Having grown up with many animals, I miss their company and adore having the chance to look after them and treat them as my own! Whilst we’re not quite ready to take on a dog of our own, a house is not a home without the love from an animal ❤️ I only ever take one dog at a time to ensure they have our full and undivided attention. I’ve established and maintained relationships with numerous pet owners in my local area, with ongoing relationships for more than 3 years. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, from puppies to seniors, from dachshunds to huskys. I WFH most of the week so have lots of time to spend giving love to a four legged friend. I’m also fortunate that my office is dog-friendly, so longer term boarders love coming with me to central London and get showered with attention and love from my colleagues! 🐶 I currently work from home most of the week. As a home body, I love spending time in my own space and love to share that with an animal! I like to keep fit with walks in Morden Hall Park which is a five minute walk away, so having a dog to join me is a joy. I treat animals as if they are my own, with endless care, cuddles and attention. Growing up with lots of pets I miss them having moved to London. There is no greater joy than hanging out with cats and dogs so everytime I do I cherish it!
About: I’ve recently looked after my friends dog for two weeks whilst they were on holiday. We walked , we bathed, we played and we fed. It was the most rewarding and satisfying experience. I currently work 40% in the office and the rest from home. My schedule allows me to look after and care for my dog. My step son is also usually at home when he’s not working.

About: I’ve owned Labradors and Ridgebacks and have spent years around big hounds and German Shepherds. I understand different temperaments: reactive, anxious, or playful and dogs tend to find me calm and grounding. Building trust and making walks enjoyable for every dog is what I love most. I’ve taken some time off work and I’m available throughout the week to walk your dog on their usual path or a similar rewarding path if you’re unable to usually do that. I look after every dog and home like they’re my own. I follow your routines carefully so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I always double-check doors, gates, and feeding times, and make sure there’s plenty of calm, positive energy in your home.

At the same time, I’m calm and attentive with pets who are anxious or adjusting to new environments, ensuring every visit prioritises safety, trust, and companionship.
“Can’t recommend Sophie enough. She bonded so quickly with my dog, who’s not always a fan of people. So to see them happy together so quickly was really nice to see. Pip is an old girl so doesn’t need long walks, just loves to be outside. And Sophie did just that. Took some pretty photos of her and videos of her enjoying the sun. Will definitely book again. Thank you so much Sophie !!”

He is a very responsible person and I will happily use his service again in the future! Thank you once again!

William did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs last weekend. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-looked-after.
