“Jon has sat for us twice now and on both occasions our two dogs and blind cat have been fit, healthy and happy on our return. Jon leaves the house immaculate. He is booked to sit for us later in the year.”
4. Paula Y.
“Paula looked after Willow for 7 days in our house whilst we were away. She provided regular updates along with photos of what willow had been up to. She was quick to respond to any messages, and a cute print out of her week with Willow was waiting for us when we got home. It was such a lovely thought. I’d tidied and cleaned the house prior to us leaving and it looked even better on our return. It was immaculate, and there even was fresh milk and pastries waiting for us!! I’d definitely recommend Paula and will be using her again. Thank you :) x”

About: I realised my passion for animals when I got my first dog at 10. I have since had a second dog join the family and helped out friends and family with their pets. I have experience with senior dogs, rescues and high energy dogs. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own. I do dog walking and pet sitting as my full-time job. I am available 7 days a week; I do volunteer at Dogs Trust Darlington on a Thursday evening for a couple of hours. Safety and trust will be two of my priorities when with the dogs. When I am in your home I will make sure that I do not leave harmful or dangerous foods/items around for them to get or doors open for them to get out. When on walks I will make sure that their lead is secure and that the environment is enriching but also one that they are comfortable with. I do have a DBS certificate and have completed an in-person canine first aid course.

Dobby is anxious in new settings/ with new people but Jade managed to help him settle with her calm, friendly manner, despite it being the first time the two of them had met. We will no doubt be booking with Jade again in the future.”
13. Eve W.
“Eve is the biggest animal lover I know! I’ve known her for many years and most of those years she’s had a dog called Henry who she cares for so deeply. She always makes sure he’s walked and fed, he gets lots of treats and cuddles. We can’t walk past a dog on the street or see a dog on tv without hearing Eve go “awwww” and teary eyed. Also, she loves my cat! She took care of him when my mum and I went away and she’s always showed him so much love. I trust her to take care of my pets whenever they need her! Animals are such a big part of Eves world, she loves every animal and she always makes sure they’re safe and happy. No matter what animal, they will always be loved and cared for by Eve.”

15. Jack S.
About: Ever since I can remember at the age of 10 I’ve been caring for horses, dogs, cats, chickens. You name it I’ve cared for it. I’ve always been around animals, and never felt uncomfortable. I always try to find time after work or during the weekend to go back to my home and see my dogs and horses it just doesn’t feel right not seeing them as often. I can easily care for animals it just comes naturally, if they are in danger which I doubt they would be, I’d be there first. All animals should be in a safe environment with people they trust.
