House Sitting Mid Sussex

“Catherine was super friendly and our dog Daisy had a lovely time with her. We were kept updated and I would not hesitate in having Catherine come to look after Daisy again - highly recommend!”

“As always, Gina not only looks after my cats, but loves them! Not sure how many cat sits it has been now, but a fair few, and she will continue to be my first point of call when going away! Thanks Gina!! Xx”

Lindsay C.

“Graham was a great communicator and regularly kept me updated on how things were going while we were away with pictures and messages. I trusted him from the outset and he felt like a safe pair of hands. He also has a good sense of humour and seemed to understand the complexities of our pets which all have their own quirks!”

Amy D.

“Shona done an amazing job looking after our 2 border terriers. We have 1 very anxious dog and she listened to our instructions carefully and he settled really well with her. We got regular updates and pictures. We would recommend Shona and will definitely be using her again. Thanks so much Shona!”

Heather R.

“Stephanie was great! She followed all of our instructions and was very confident with our very large dog. She kept in contact the entire time we were away and we came home to a spotless house! Will definitely be using her again!”

About: I have taken care for my friends dogs and have walked them often, I always make sure I speak with the owner to get all the neccesary information before taking them out (e.g how responsive are they to recall). I also looked after my old partners dog frequently and pet sat for her and took her for walks for days-weeks at a time. I have 2 jobs which have varied hours and shift patterns change regularly. I will always ensure I update my availability to suit this. As of present, I tutor in term time and work as a carer in half terms, however the caring job isnt daily which increases my availability during half terms In my home I have a fenced garden to keep my cat safe and I regularly check on her. I give her frequent affection while I'm home and always make sure her basic needs are met (clean litter tray, replenished food and water bowls)

About: I’ve been around animals for many years and have lots of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have my own cat and have also owned a much-loved dog, so I completely understand how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet. We’ve regularly dog-sat for friends and family over the years and know lots of dogs with very different personalities, ages and needs. I’m confident with everything from energetic dogs who love a good walk to older dogs who need a gentler pace and a little extra care. I’m comfortable following individual feeding routines, giving oral medication where needed and sticking closely to the routines and instructions owners provide. I’m equally happy popping in to feed, play with and spend time with cats, while respecting those who prefer their own space! Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and will treat every pet I look after with the same care and attention I give my own. I’m also very happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for. I work part-time and am off from Saturday through to Wednesday each week, which means I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. On these days I can be very flexible with walks, drop-in visits and spending quality time with pets throughout the day. As I’m not trying to squeeze visits around a full-time job, I can work around your pet’s usual routine and give them the time and attention they’re used to. Whether that’s a morning walk, lunchtime visit, afternoon adventure or simply some company and cuddles at home, I’m happy to be flexible around their needs. My animals are genuinely the love of my life. I don’t have children, so my pets are very much my family, and I completely understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in somebody else’s care. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience and attention I give my own. I’m very happy to follow their normal routine closely, including feeding times, walks, medication, playtime and, of course, plenty of cuddles if they want them! When caring for pets in their own home, I’m respectful of both their space and yours and will make sure they feel as comfortable and settled as possible. If they’re staying with me, I want them to feel safe, relaxed and very much part of the family. I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates because I know from experience how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy while you’re apart.

“Wonderful! Sophie popped round to meet Phoebe before hand and she doted on her (and Phoebe loved her too) she even got to meet an extra friend, Sophie’s daughter, and they had a great time playing. Sophie’s communication was clear and kind throughout and she took great care of Phoebe during a heatwave, sending lots of photos of Phoebe cooling down and being a happy pup. Would 100% recommend!”

About: I’ve spent most of my life around animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets while you’re away. Growing up, I was surrounded by dogs, including Retrievers and an Old English Sheepdog, and I’ve also cared for cats and rabbits. My rabbits have been part of my family for the past 11 years, so I understand the individual care and attention that small animals need. I’ve also looked after a friend’s dog on several occasions while they were on holiday, giving them complete peace of mind that their pet was happy and well cared for. Alongside my love of animals, I’ve worked in caring roles supporting both adults and children with learning disabilities. This has helped me develop patience, reliability, compassion, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every pet I care for. For added peace of mind, I hold a ProTrainings Pet First Aid Level 2 (VTQ) certificate, I’m DBS checked, and I’m fully insured. I believe that great pet care is about combining genuine compassion with professionalism, so you can feel confident that your pets and your home are in safe hands. I specialise in home visits, providing care in the environment where your pets feel safest and most comfortable. Whether it’s feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter trays, administering medication where appropriate, or simply spending quality time keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them with the same kindness and respect that I would my own animals. I’m also happy to care for a variety of other pets, not just cats and dogs. Whether you have rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, reptiles, or other small animals, I’ll take the time to understand their individual routines and provide the same attentive, compassionate care they receive from you. I know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you’re away, so I’ll always keep you informed with messages and photos, allowing you to relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your very important pets! I am generally available 7 days a week. I can be very flexible and do accept short notice bookings so just let me know how I can help. As I provide pet home visits, I care for pets in the comfort and familiarity of their own home, helping to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.

“Lovely sitter, our two boys were very happy with Ellie. She kept us up to date with pictures and messages and we will happily be booking her again.”

Cherrelle C.

“Melanie looked after Hank and Angus so well, taking them for lovely weeks, she is a very professional lovely lady. I would highly recommend her.”

Rebecca H.

“Simone is a fantastic dog sitter. I went away for the week and Simone came to stay at our place to look after two dogs (aged 7). She was so great at communicating throughout, even suggesting a pre-meet beforehand. I was able to fully relax knowing they were being so well looked after, with regular pictures and videos. Simone also left the house spotless (infact it felt tidier than we left). Thank you Simone.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, from cats and dogs to snakes and exotic animals. My dad currently has a big cuddly French bullmastiff and although he is large I am able to control him and make sure he’s looked after. He also has a little French bulldog who’s very energetic, so I’m no stranger to different energy levels in pets. When I dog sit I make sure they’re fed each day, have company as much as possible, walk them, ensure water is full and give him lots of love and cuddles. I am used to puppies and old dogs. As well as always having cats around too. Currently me and my boyfriend will dog sit our friends cockapoo, Ted. Im a freelancer so my schedule is different each week, however once I book something in I am committed. Being a freelancer gives me the flexibility to do things like this and also give me some company as sometimes it can get quite lonely when a lot of my friends work 9-5 and I don’t have much on. I will also ensure to keep my profile up to date as much as I can. I currently live in a 2 bed apartment with a large living room, when I have looked after dogs here I make sure I take them out to the green just in front my place as I don’t have a garden. I also ensure there is always water and they are fed when they need to be. When I’m other peoples houses I will always check what they prefer for their pet and follow that to ensure safety and keep the pets happy and comfortable. I also have room to have a crate in the house if a pet requires it over night so that is also not a problem for me. I am also happy for pets to be on my furniture however, if you would prefer them not to be because of habits I won’t allow them to climb up on them, just let me know :)

“Isabella was great with Bella! We came home to a very tidy home and a happy dog. Will happily use her again!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life as has my partner. I've mainly been around boxers (I can't remember a time that my parents haven't had a boxer). Gray has had a whole range of pets but always had a dog at home. Our current flat isn't dog friendly but we would love to have a pet when we move into a property more appropriate. We are also great at watering plants, taking in deliveries and caring for your house while you're away! We can work around your routines and mix walk, play and rest as required. We are also very understanding to each dogs individual needs. I currently work full time locally in Haywards Heath so I can pop round in the day time on my lunch break to let the dogs out whilst Gray is a teacher and can be more available during school holidays and weekends. We adapt ourselves to fit in with your routines and what works best for the dog. Our main priority is that while you are away your dog feels as comfortable as possible whilst in our care.

About: A calm, loving environment where your dog or cat feels safe and settled. Love dog walks, spending quality time & care. Looking forward to meeting your pet! Looking after dogs isn’t just something I want to do - it’s what I genuinely care about. Since having Rex for the past 3 years (we share him part-time), I’ve seen first-hand how much love, joy and energy a dog brings into your life. He’s not “just a pet” - he’s part of our family. Rex comes everywhere with us - walks, garden centres, watching my 7-year-old son play football, even out for food when we can. He’s included in our life, not left behind. And that’s exactly how I would treat your dog. 🐾 Family included 🐾 Walked, loved and stimulated 🐾 Part of the day - not just fitted into it I understand how important that bond is because I have it myself. When your dog is with me, they won’t just be supervised - they’ll be cared for. X 🐾 A Home From Home For Your Dog Dogs aren’t just pets in our house - they’re family. I have a fully fenced, secure garden for safe playtime, plus an open field nearby for long walks, fresh air and proper runs to burn off energy. At home, your fur baby won’t be alone - my friendly nearly 3-year-old dog will be there to keep them company and make it even more fun. He’s social, loving and used to being around other dogs. Inside you’ll find: 🐶 Comfy dog beds around the house 🧸 Lots of toys for play and stimulation 🏡 A calm, loving family environment If your dog is crate trained, I’m more than happy to use your crate (supplied by you) to keep their routine consistent. If not, they’re welcome to settle wherever they feel most comfortable. When your dog stays with us, they’re included - walks, cuddles, family time and lots of love. I also have business insurance (protectivity) & have DBS - happy to send over documents upon request.

About: I've been around dogs my whole life, over 30 years since I was a young child. I had a child-minder four days a week, she had two huge, gorgeous German Sherpherd dogs and a partner at the time who had his own German Sherpherd and he trained police dogs. I learned a lot about canine behaviour and still have to this day a great deal of respect for the trust dogs put in us to lead the pack. I know that trust is earned not granted. Being outdoors with dogs (or horses) is where I'm happiest, so I've made it my work (not with horses, yet!). I walk in all weathers - come rain or shine. I'm currently looking towards my dog training certification. Happy to do drop-in visits and cat feeding and cuddles too. Every new dog starts with a free meet and greet. I am available as follows: Monday 12.30 - 2pm for morning walks. 4- 6 pm for afternoon walks. Wednesday 10 - 12.30pm for morning walks. 4 - 6pm for afternoon walks. Thursday 10 - 1pm for morning walks. 4 - 6pm for afternoon walks. Friday 11 - 1pm for morning walks. 4 - 6pm for afternoon walks.. Saturday 12 - 6pm. All care takes place in your pet's own home or on our walks, where they're most comfortable — I don't board animals at mine. Before any first booking we do a free meet and greet so I can learn your pet's routine, quirks and any medical needs, and you can ask me anything. Dogs are walked on-lead unless you've told me otherwise, with collar, harness and lead checked before every walk, and I never walk more than 3 dogs at a time. In your home I follow your routine exactly — feeding, water, litter, medication — and I double-check doors, windows and gates are secure before I leave. Cats stay in or out strictly per your instructions. Your keys are stored securely and never labelled with your address, I keep your vet's details to hand for every booking, and you get a photo update from every walk or visit so you always know how they're doing.

“Elle looked after our puppy in our own home for 5 nights while we were away on holiday. She was absolutely brilliant especially as it was the hottest week of the year. Her care for Lubney in respect of the heat was super, and we were well informed of everything while we were away. We certainly would recommend Elle to anyone. Lubney clearly loved her time with Elle, as she was more than content, and it was as if we had never been away.”
