“Hilary was brilliant with our puppy - he clearly had a great time with her on the home visits. Reliable, experienced and very good at keeping in touch before, during and after the booked sessions. Thank you Hilary!”

About: Before I moved onto public apps, I have had a lot of experience with looking after pets whether it's my own or a family members or a friend's. I've looked after my aunt's dog for long weekends staying over at her house, walking twice a day and playing in the garden. I've spent a couple of weeks travelling to a friend's house to look after and walk their dog for the afternoon whilst they are at work. Molly is a high maintenance cockerpoo and it's always a fun time with her. We go for hour long walks or adapt accordingly by playing inside whilst the weather has been too hot to take her out during the day. Our family own a rescued Saluki who has behavior issues and I am sometimes left with him on my own. I have easily picked up on how to look after him properly and give him the love, care and attention he needs. I currently have a part-time job every Sunday between 10 and 4. Throughout the week, I only have one evening commitment which is my volunteering for my local Brownie unit. During University term time, I am unavailable Mondays, Fridays and Thursday mornings. During holidays, my weekdays are flexible. Due to my family's situation with our dogs behavioural issues, I am unfortunately unable to provide services at my own home. However, when I travel to other homes to care for pets, I always make sure we spend time playing together either inside or outside, feed and go for a walks. I am happy to administer medication orally and if a vet is required I can drive them to your vet. Please leave full details of your vet and any insurance plan you have. Dogs with separation anxiety need a lot of extra care and attention and I can talk with you at a meeting beforehand to discuss the best ways to calm your dog so they are at ease in their own home with someone they don't know. For your dog's safety, I always do leads on a walk.

“Jessica was great with my cats, she checked in when requested, fed and watered them. She provided photos of them whilst I was away which was greatly appreciated Would recommend.”

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I grew up rescuing stray dogs and giving them a safe place, food and love. Over the years I have cared for many different breeds, from small playful dogs to large strong ones. I am calm, patient and attentive to every dog’s personality and needs. For me dogs are not just pets – they are family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and being active outdoors. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate proper time and attention to each pet I care for. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings when needed. When I look after a pet, I make sure they receive enough exercise, attention, and companionship. I never rush walks and always adapt the time and activity to the dog’s needs and energy level. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my priority. I treat every dog as if it were my own. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and properly supervised at all times. I pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and any instructions given by the owner so they feel secure and relaxed. Even though I live in an apartment, I make sure dogs receive plenty of outdoor time, exercise, and fresh air through regular walks and visits to nearby parks. I keep a calm and clean environment and always focus on building trust with both pets and their owners.

“Emma was so wonderful and caring with Kimi, she looked after her so well for us and Kimi loved having lots of attention and strokes from Emma! Would absolutely recommend, Emma is lovely and reliable 🥰”

“John was amazing with Thor. I am a “pet mum” full of requests and reminders , lists on the wall and especially i request a continues update. John gave me everything I requested and he was really caring and affectionate with Thor🥰 I was a little apprehensive about many things cause although Thor is not a Huge dog is anyway a dog of a certain size, I have nothing but good words about him and I will for sure book him again in the future.”

“Laura was great. She came round to meet us and the cat, the cat had a prior engagement and was no where to be seen! Laura let us know each time she dropped in while we were away, due to the cat's very busy social schedule, Laura couldn't get a picture. Would definitely book with Laura again.”

Sara W.

“Kim was super helpful and friendly, plus she managed to befriend my cat Jackie who isn't usually a fan of strangers/humans in general! Was great to get daily pictures on the check-in visits. 5/5”

Jonathan G.

“Emily was absolutely fantastic. She is such a friendly person and as soon as we met, I knew I didn't have to worry about my old, grumpy cat while Emily was looking after her. Emily gave loads of updates which was very reassuring. I would definitely try to book with her again.”

About: Hi there! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was 15. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets as if they were their own. I currently have 1 working cocker spaniel, Gracie. She is so sweet, well trained, and has the kindest and most accepting demeanor towards other humans and pets! Growing up, my family always had 2-3 dogs in the house, so I’m very comfortable around dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds, including Vizslas, Spaniels, Dachshunds, Hounds, Poodles, Labradors, Great Danes, Bichons, and many mixed breeds, all with different temperaments and needs. I also grew up with 2 cats in the home, and I feel very comfortable caring for cats as well! I have experience caring for everything from brand new puppies to elderly dogs with sight and hearing difficulties, so I’m happy to adapt to each pet’s routine, energy level, and comfort. I’m patient, attentive, and confident with dogs who may need extra reassurance, gentle handling, or a little more time to feel settled. As I’ve become an adult, I’ve naturally become the go-to person for family and friends whenever they need pet sitting, dog walking, or general care. Dogs usually take to me very naturally, and I’m a huge animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with them. In my early 20s, my aunt started her own dog boarding and walking business and mentored me, which gave me even more hands-on experience with professional pet care, routines, safety, and making sure every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well looked after. Whether you need walks, drop in visits, or sitting, I’ll care for your pet with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. Their safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my priority. I live in Otterbourne (10 min from the center of Winchester), where there are lots of walking trails and pet friendly spaces. I also have a large garden behind my flat! For the first time in a long time, I don't currently have any pets of my own. I live in a 2 bedroom, 1 bath flat with my husband (also a massive animal lover!). Pet care fits really well into my daily routine because I work around 20 hours per week remotely and set my own schedule. This means I have a lot of flexibility throughout the day, evenings, and weekends to give your pet the time, attention, and care they need. For boarding, I’ll be home often and able to spend plenty of time with your pet, whether that means taking them for walks, playing with them, keeping them company, or helping them feel comfortable and settled in a new environment. I know how important routine and reassurance can be, so I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. For dog walking, drop-in visits, and check-ins, I’m also very flexible and happy to come to your home at a time that works best for you and your pet. I would love to build a trusting relationship with your pet over time, so they feel happy, comfortable, and excited to see me whenever I visit. In my home, I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm and welcoming environment. My semi-detached house is very spacious, with 2 floors, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large sitting room, kitchen, and a fenced private garden so there is plenty of room for your pet to relax, play, and settle in comfortably. I only allow 1 pet for care at a time so I can make sure they get the appropriate attentiveness and care they need. I also have a large garden outside, which is great for supervised fresh air, playtime, and toilet breaks, as well as lots of lovely walking trails and pathways around Kings Worthy for dogs who enjoy getting out and exploring. I also have a car, so if you are happy for me to do so, I can take your dog to nearby parks or open spaces for a change of scenery and extra exercise. I will always follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, rest, and any specific instructions you provide. In a pet owner’s home, I will be respectful of both your pet and your space. I’ll make sure your pet is fed, has fresh water, receives plenty of attention, and feels safe and secure while you are away. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, litter care, clean-ups, check-ins, and regular updates so you can feel reassured that your pet is in good hands.

About: I have a diploma in Animal Care, management and behavioural sciences, I am not shy when its regarding a more difficult pet or challenging dog breed. I am shorter in height but I am not frightened by larger or heavier breeds of dog and have had my fair share of experience within the kennels that I volunteered within. I have learned many techniques for training dogs of various ages and take great joy in teaching animals new tricks - especially when it benefits both the animal and the owner in the long run. I have handled, cared for and managed a range of species including but not limited to: Dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils and reptiles (snakes, bearded dragons). I am passionate and can offer loving, friendly and educated services. I am Currently working part time before proceeding to further zoological studies, I have plenty of time for drop in visits around my work days and my contract is flexible so any overnight visits or day visits that may take up more time I am definitely able to fit into my schedule without much hassle asking as I am given appropriate notice. I do not currently offer services in my own home however I am more then Capable of providing excellent service within your own home. No matter what service I provide for you, you will always have multiple points of contact for me incase of emergencies with your property or pet. During our pre booking consultation, I will ask for any medical information I need to know about including any conditions that may mean the animal is hindered physically or may be impacted when it's in regards to mobility. I understand every pet is different and it will be important for me to learn your pets routine, favourite things and diet. I will put effort into making sure I provide the most comfortable care for your pet allowing them to express themselves in a safe environment and I'll keep you updated with photos that you may find amusing or comforting.

About: Hi there! My name is Vanessa and I have been looking after dogs for over 25 years. I have owned 7 dogs in my life and had my own dog boarding business that offered a home to home setting for dogs for 10 years whilst living abroad in France. Now being back in the UK, I want to continue offering my services for any dog owner that’s in need. I have always believed that a dog should be cared for equally to the rest of the family and therefore should be treated exactly that way. Dogs are what I know best and love the most so I’m very happy to take care of them. I am also a passionate walker and having a companion is always a great pleasure. I do not work so I am able to offer full time care and attention to your pets. I have the time to care for dogs who are needing specific attention or have specific needs. I have an enclosed garden so I can always let them out as frequently as needed. I have lots of fields and forests nearby so I can offer lovely walks when needed. This is my full time job so I am able to ensure your dog gets the best care. I offer a home to home feeling for your dog. I believe it is important that your dog feels relaxed and at home when they come to stay. Every dog has his/her own needs so in order to make sure they feel settled, I am happy to go through anything they might need to feel more secure.

About: I absolutely adore cats and dogs. I don't have any of my own due to my job but I am on furlough and have a lot of love to give to a furry friend. I love to go for long walks, I love to run. I have a countryside just 2 mins from my house. I have looked after dogs for over 5 years and have lots of experience with all ages and breeds or cats and dogs. I love to cuddle and would let them be on sofa and bed if that's what they prefer. I have a bath and shower to give your pet a wash. Lovely big garden for them to play in. I would love to look after your fluffy animals

About: hello im Georgia. I have never done a job like this before but i have 26 years experience with my own animals and now 2 years with rover. I have previously had 2 cats and a dog called Charlie (living at my mothers house). We are always first point of call for sleepovers with the dogs in our family and our friends dogs have been welcomed here many times too. We welcome all sizes, and a perfect holiday for your dog even if they're a little bit crazy. I work self employed as an aesthetician so I spend a lot of time at home, and grateful to also be a Mumma to a 5 year old girl who goes to school Monday-Friday. I have always had dogs and i treat my charlie like my child so i know i would never want him in the wrong hands. I consider myself to have a very big heart which is why i have so much love and time for animals. I have plenty experience with dog walking and being patient with my animals. I can provide you with regular pupdates and pictures so you know how your pet is and what they are up to. If you require your dog to be crated then we can accommodate to this also so that your dog isn't out of routine. We have plenty of local parks for your dogs to explore. We want your pets to be safe and happy in our care so will require some information from you to ensure that your dog has the best time possible and that our house is prepped and suitable for your dogs requirements. If there are any requests then please don't hesitate to let us know. We will try to accommodate the best we can. This is unlike a kennel setting, just your dog going from one home to another, prepared for hours of belly tickles. I currently am at home apart from the school run. My daughter goes to school and my partner works hybrid so is also home a few days a week so what better way to spend my lonely free time than getting my fitness up and making furry friends. I have a fair sized garden that is fenced off. I can also crate your dog if this is preferred. I am willing to take all precautions to ensure your dog is in safe hands. My mums dog is an escape artist and I am now a professional at having eyes on the back of my head

“Lovely sitter! Amazing with Max and able to fit us in last minute and help us out. Really friendly and sent us photos and feedback on how he was getting on ? will definitely use her again!”
