Our house is their house while they're staying with us!

About: I have had my own dogs since I was very young I had a shih tzu and a border collie and then got a job working in a dog day care and groomers also have done pet sitting looking after cats and rabbits too. Also working in a vets on reception and enjoy seeing all the pets coming in. I am available all week and have all different times that I can come either to visit your home to feed a pet or for some playtime and also for dog walking during the day. I have a fenced back garden all secure. I live in a house with family who all love dogs and currently I do not have any dogs of my own living in the house.

About: I love Dogs since I had 6 years old my first dog name was Chiquilin I remember him a lot when I was playing outside home. I always take care my friend dogs when there are abroad on holidays or weekends out. I like feed them on time and look after them. I work from home most of the days that is the reason that I can offer properly look after your dog in my house where you are welcome to visit. I live in a house by myself where there is not place to a dog can go away or open doors due i really protect animals and care them.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities for several years. What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I look after. I absolutely love dogs, and I have a lot of experience thanks to my own dog, a medium-large breed that I raised from a puppy until he passed away. He had an incredible personality—loving, friendly, and calm—and I’m proud to say I never had any behavioral or aggression issues with him. I believe that with the right care, attention, and affection, dogs truly thrive. I also have experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a gentler pace. My goal is always to create a safe, loving environment where every dog feels comfortable, happy, and at home. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend quality time with the dogs I care for. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I always make sure they get the attention and care they need. I’m available during both weekdays and weekends, and I adapt my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. Their well-being and happiness are always my top priority. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or the owner's. I have a secure garden where dogs can play freely and safely. At home, they enjoy comfortable beds, a variety of toys, and the best quality food. I even like to cook special meals for them to ensure they’re happy and healthy. I always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding times, walks, and medication if needed, to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. If I care for dogs in their own home, I respect their space and keep everything as they’re used to. When they stay with me, I create a cozy, loving environment where they receive plenty of attention and care—just like family.

About: Hi! I’m Sanya, and I’d love to welcome your furry friend into my home, where they’ll be cared for with patience, understanding, and plenty of tail wags! I live with my husband Andelko and our own rescue dog, Bruno – a big-hearted boy who’s taught me so much about canine communication, reactivity, and trust. We’ve worked through a lot together, and that journey has made me passionate about providing a safe, calm, and fun environment for all dogs, especially those who might need a little extra understanding. I have plenty of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and regularly dog sit for friends. I’m confident with big breeds and reactive dogs, and I know how important it is to build trust at your pup’s pace. Our home has a large, secure garden and plenty of space indoors, which means our dogs don't have to meet if they don't like each other. I do slow introductions and always prioritize safety and comfort – whether that means relaxed solo time or playful socializing with Bruno, if they’re a good match. Bruno doesn’t love all humans, so hosting doggy friends at home is a great way for him to enjoy companionship while I provide dedicated care to your pup. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you always know how your dog is doing. I work from home most of the time, and I usually have to work away for a few hours on Mondays. My husband is always home at that time so your fur baby will never be alone. I have a fenced garden with plenty of space for zoomies and a safe home with plenty of cosy beds for relaxing. Your doggy will have plenty of attention and walks outside in nearby parks.

“Sophia was amazing! First time to book a day care service with her. And we were so delighted that Loki looked so happy, no doubt he had a lovely day. Thanks for picking up and dropping off Loki! Sophia was so kind, she kept us updated with photos and video and constantly messaging about Loki’s activities. I highly recommend her and will avail for her service if we need to book again.”
