About: I've had pets ever since I was a little kid, I've had dozens of connections with cats of my own and I love them, the same going for dogs too! I have a very good sense and closeness with animals that can ensure that your pet is well cared for and looked after. I am currently a student finishing up the end of his year, meaning I have plenty of spare time to care for all your pets in need while you're away! I'm available almost anytime throughout the week and I'm spontaneous with taking care of them, and I can take care of them overnight on weekdays for when needed! I'm a very gentle pet handler, I'll make sure that their happiness and wellbeing is held to just as high a standard as their safety is, with that being top of the line. I can always keep my eye out on them and be attentive at all times for when the situation calls for it.

About: I’m a young, enthusiastic animal lover. Working with animals since I was only 15. I’ve done everything from dog walking, to a kennel and Cattery worker, to working in a groomers, a hydrotherapy and doing a 2 year animal management course at Askham Bryan College. I have taken an animal first aid course and I have experience dealing with dogs/cats who have a medical condition and need medication. My passion is to care for animals of all shapes and sizes, and of all ages. At home I have 3 dogs, a chalkie, yorkipoo and patterdale, and I’m also close with 2 staffies which my dad owns. Currently I have fish and a crested gecko too. However, in the past I’ve also owned Syrian hamsters. In my spare time I enjoy going for long dog walks to either the beach or woodlands. Of course dogs will need bathing after these walks which is something else I enjoy doing.

About: Hello. I'm Dan, 34 years old and a lot of free time giving me the opportunity to help you and your pets. I'm an avid animal lover of all types and would welcome all invitations to walk, watch over and treat your best friends as mine too. I like to stay active, keeping a regular walking distance everyday and would happily welcome company on those walks. Whether that be short routes around the neighbourhood or a much longer trek in the hopes of tiring them out by the end of the day. I am a licenced first aider with lots of experience fostering dogs and cats in the past with severe medical conditions and other special requirements. In those situations I'm well trained to remain calm under pressure and skilled at assisting your pet in times of need.

About: I grew up rearing, raising, and training XL dogs on a farm South Africa, from puppy to old age. I have rescued many dogs. Our sheep dog is a rescue. We have a sheepdog and 2 poochons who are super friendly and love making friends. My wife will probably spoil your dog just as much as she spoils our own. My wife is now a qualified dog trainer making us a great pair to ensure your dog is safe and happy during their stay with us. My wife and I both work from home. We're really flexible and we take our dogs for a walk 2 or 3 times a day. We have a walled garden and we have plenty of experience walking dogs. We have a large open plan kitchen/diner with laminate flooring, so easy to clean any mess, and your dog is welcome to chill with us in our lounge on our sofa's. Our house is your dog's house.

About: I’ve started caring for animals since I was 10, starting with small rodents like hamsters and rabbits, even having fishies multiple times. Since 13 I’ve looked after my two Jack Russel Terrier mixes who are inseparable. They have PTSD and have come out of their shell amazingly and are now older dogs but still loving all the same. I also now have a Cockapoo who has major separation anxiety when away from my mom and I keep her so happy and entertained. I’ve cared for manny animals for others in the last 4 years, from a French bulldog with dietary requirements, special walking needs and anxiety to a bigger golden retriever who is caring all round. I’ve fostered a handful of kittens and cats before finding them a loving and caring forever home, I’ve looked after manny dogs and even smaller pets like reptiles and rodents. I am currently in University however it doesn’t take up every day of my week, this means most days of the week I will always be free. As for weekends, I can move things around to suit your best needs! When it comes to your home, I will be with the animal all hours of my time there, minus my own toilet breaks of course ahaha, and will be walking them as needed or letting them out into the back garden to go toilet. I will make it my too priority if your fur baby has any special requirements they are met on time and at the best quality I can give.

About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and have over 20 years of experience caring for my own cats. Alongside this, I have around 10 years of hands-on experience looking after dogs for extended periods, often for weeks at a time. I’m very comfortable with animals of all personalities and needs, and I genuinely enjoy providing them with a safe, happy, and loving environment while they’re in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I’m not currently working, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m home most of the day, so I can maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide regular playtime, and ensure pets feel comfortable and settled. I’m able to adapt my routine around each pet’s needs, whether that’s multiple walks for dogs, quiet companionship for cats, or sticking closely to specific care instructions. Because of my availability, I can offer a calm, attentive environment and won’t need to rush or leave pets alone for long periods. I provide attentive, reliable care whether pets are in my home or in their owner’s home. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where pets can settle in comfortably, sticking closely to their usual routines for feeding, play, and rest. I make sure they get plenty of attention, stimulation, and affection so they feel relaxed and at home. When caring for pets in their owner’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I ensure feeding schedules, walks, litter or garden care, and any specific needs are met consistently. I also keep owners updated for peace of mind, so they know their pets are happy and well looked after while they’re away.

About: I have had a lifelong passion for animals, particularly dogs, which has shaped my extensive experience in pet care. Growing up with dogs, I have developed a deep understanding of their behavior, needs, and training requirements. This hands-on experience has equipped me with the skills to provide effective care and companionship for a variety of dog breeds and temperaments. In addition to my personal experience, I have engaged in dog sitting for friends and family, allowing me to broaden my expertise in managing different dogs in various environments. This includes feeding routines, exercise regimens, and ensuring the overall well-being of the pets in my care. My commitment to creating a positive and safe environment for dogs is evident in my attentive approach, ensuring that each pet feels loved and secure. Through my lifelong experience and dog sitting activities, I have developed strong communication skills with both pets and their owners. ✨ A quick note on my setup: I live in a flat, which is a wonderful, cosy space for pets! To keep my home private and secure, I don't offer home tours or allow owners inside. We will always meet at a local park for a chat first to make sure everything is a perfect fit. 🐾 Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine as I am available all day, every day. This allows me to prioritize the needs of the dogs in my care, providing them with attention, exercise, and companionship whenever they need it. My schedule is flexible, enabling me to accommodate various feeding times, walks, and play sessions, ensuring each dog receives personalized care. I enjoy spending quality time with pets, whether it's taking them for long walks, engaging in play, or simply being there for cuddles. This commitment to pet care enriches my day while ensuring that the dogs feel loved and well cared for at all times. When caring for pets in my home I prioritise a safe and nurturing environment. I have a fenced-off garden that provides a secure space for dogs to play and explore, ensuring they can enjoy fresh air while staying safe. My own dog, who is an older, loving, and friendly companion, helps create a calm atmosphere, making it easier for new pets to feel comfortable and relaxed. I also utilize a crate for any pets that may need a safe, quiet space to retreat to when they feel overwhelmed or need some downtime. This helps to establish a routine and provides pets with their own cozy spot. I ensure that all pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and social interaction, whether through walks, playtime in the garden, or relaxing indoors. My goal is to create a welcoming, loving environment where every pet feels at home.

About: Hi I’m India! I’ve owned dogs my whole life from chihuahuas to alsatians and everything in between. At my family home we have an assortment of pets from horses to cats and dogs. Over the summer months I will be back home with lots of free time so I’d love to play care and love your pets when you’re at work or going away. We have lots of space including, enclosed fields, fenced gardens and dog runs as well as rooms inside to keep your pet separate from other dogs if that’s what you would prefer! Im a kind, patient person and I’m capable of handling dogs that may need a slightly stricter approach, my husky for example pulls on her lead very badly (I’m trying to train her out of this though!) Thank you for reading and please keep me in mind :) Your pets needs would dictate my routine. I’m happy to accommodate older pets who may not need lots of exercise or the opposite and take your pet out to play and walk all day. We have lots of space including, enclosed fields, fenced gardens and dog runs as well as rooms inside to keep your pet separate from other dogs if that’s what you would prefer!

About: I’m experienced in handling large dogs (any size/breed welcome) and have a deep understanding of the needs and quirks of anxious and reactive dogs and the care and patience they require through my experience with my extremely nervous rescue German Shepherd who was in very bad mental and physical condition when I adopted him. Sadly, he passed at the end of 2024 after many happy years together. Personally, I found it extremely difficult to trust others to walk or care for him during our time together so I’d like to reassure those in a similar position that I can take care of their best friend when they need it and I’ll always be as careful, understanding and vigilant as I was with my own. My garden is secure with full, well-maintained fences and walls and a padlocked gate, I have blinds on all public facing windows which can be closed if dogs are triggered by people walking by. Everyone is welcome to supply any toys, beds or anything that makes your dog feel more comfortable and of course I will stick to their usual walking schedule and dietary requirements. I live directly next to a large park which is not typically very busy and offers numerous trails from the main paths to avoid others when caring for reactive dogs. I will never let anyone’s dog off the lead during a walk (unless I have booked a secure field) and always clip leads to a strong walking belt as extra security, walk in shaded areas on hot days and carry water at all times. I mainly work from home so when boarding and pet sitting your dog will be with me all day with regular opportunities to play, go in the garden and for walks in the morning, lunch time and evening. I’m available for walks morning, lunchtime and evenings during the week and all day Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. I only care for dogs from the same household on walks and in my home unless they are friends who have already spent time together. This is for the best possible wellbeing of each dog. I’d rather provide quality and complete confidence than take on as many dogs as possible as I believe in giving them the individual care and attention they deserve with as few stressful triggers as possible. I work from home so dogs will not be left unattended or outside for prolonged periods. I only endorse the use of positive reinforcement / reward-based training and treat all dogs with respect, understanding and care tailored to their specific needs. I’m happy to discuss your requirements, answer any questions and arrange a pre-stay meet and greet if required. I have also completed a certified DBS check through my employer. We do not have any children or pets of our own in our home.

About: Hi, I am a student currently studying a Zoology degree at Hartpury University. I love all animals and I have lots of experience working with them. I have worked at a doggy daycare in the past and have a lot of experience caring of them. I also have experience with elderly dogs and dogs with special needs, as my family dog had diabetes which required daily insulin. He was also deaf and blind but went through cataract surgery so I have a lot of experience with eye drops too. I am currently a university student so my availability will change depending on my schedule. But I am not in university all day every day so I have lots of availability. I offer at home visits where I can visit your pet during the day while you’re away. I will give them some play time and make sure that they’ve gone to the toilet while I am there. I will also make sure if there are any accidents that they have been cleaned up.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since childhood and have experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes from extra large breeds to tiny companion dogs. I own two working breed Labradors who are incredibly fun, friendly, and well-socialised with other dogs. Living with high-energy working breeds has given me a strong understanding of the importance of structure, exercise, mental stimulation, and breed-specific enrichment. I love creating engaging walks and activities that keep dogs happy, fulfilled, and mentally enriched whether that’s scent work, retrieval games, exploring new environments, or simply giving them the attention and interaction they need. I understand that every dog is different and tailor care to suit their personality, energy levels, and routine. I also have a special interest in senior dogs and dogs with medical conditions. I cared extensively for my elderly diabetic dog who also had an immune condition, giving me hands-on experience administering medication, monitoring health needs, and providing calm, patient, compassionate care for dogs requiring extra support. I currently work part time and can offer walks during weekday daytimes up until 5pm. I can also work weekend daytimes until 6pm and can provide daycare on weekends from early morning until 6pm I am not currently offering boarding or daycare, however I am more than happy to provide enrichment, feeding and any other care such as medicine etc, at your home after walks or in place of a walk for special needs.
