About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — I grew up in a dog-loving family, with my grandparents, aunt, and sister all having dogs. I’ve always been the one they trust the most to take care of their pets, whether it’s for daily walks, weekend stays, or longer vacations. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing a gentler touch. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every dog like part of the family. I recently resigned from my job and am currently in the process of exploring new opportunities. In the meantime, I want to spend my time doing something meaningful — and caring for pets is just that. I have a very flexible schedule right now, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight stays, or last-minute requests, I’m happy to help and always treat each pet like family. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in the owner’s home, I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding times to walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles. In the owner’s home, I’m respectful of the space and make sure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar surroundings. If pets stay with me, I ensure they have a cozy spot to rest, regular outdoor time (for dogs), and lots of love and attention throughout the day.

“RJ and Natalie were kind enough to take Veera in as a last minute request. They even made sure that Veera and Loki (thier lovely and friendly dog) got on well by meeting us early that day. Veera had a fantastic time with them, pampered and well looked after. This was our first time leaving Veera so they made sure to send us loads of updates and pictures from time to time. I highly recommend them, they are amazing.”


5. Marina S.

“Marina was really great as we were looking for a dog sitter last minute. Marina confirmed she loves Labradors and told us to drop him off. She was very kind and respectful. She looked after my pet really well although it was only for a day. My pet looked very happy and appreciative after we picked him up. I would recommend Marina as she is a wonderful human being 😊 Thank you Marina 💐”

“Dalcon, Heidi, and Deedee took fantastic care of Chickpea! They were incredibly accommodating, especially with her being in heat for the first time. She’s a lively pup, and they handled her needs with such patience and care. We really appreciated the regular updates and all the great photos. Highly recommend their care!”


7. Sophia P.

“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!

9. Charlotte K.

“Lando absolutely loved his time with Charlotte and Cherry! Maybe a bit too much with Cherry haha! Charlotte was great with giving Lando his medication and being really loving towards him whilst he’s not being quite himself. He’s slept the whole time since I picked him up, so he definitely enjoyed himself! Thank you! X”


10. Anna H.

“Anna has been taking care of Willow, my nearly 1 year old cockapoo since she was about 4 months old either for walks or doggy day care. She knows about dogs and I've learnt a lot from her. She is kind, compassionate and so reliable. I get lots of updates throughout the day which is reassurinf. Even when I have last minute work commitments Anna has always been approachable and willing and able to help. Willow loves spending time with Anna, her daughter and their Yorkie Roxy. I can't recommend Anna enough.”


11. Sanja J.
“I've seen firsthand the incredible patience, dedication, and care my wife gives to every dog she looks after—especially those with challenging backgrounds. She’s naturally calm, observant, and deeply empathetic, always putting the dog’s needs and comfort first. Our own rescue dog has come so far because of her commitment, and I trust her completely to handle any situation with thoughtfulness and responsibility.”


12. Kwok H.

About: I have ample amounts of experience with dogs of all ages and size. Provide daily walks, as the park is 2 minutes away from my home, lots of cuddles & attention 2/3 walks a day in the local parks, but I can cater to the needs of your pet. Plenty of attention, cuddles and playtime as I am home all day. Our home is fully dog-proofed as we have a puppy Husky and we always make sure they’re with us and kept safe. We’re very careful and make sure we follow any instructions for dogs being on or off leads, so that everyone is comfortable.
