Pet Sitting in Middlesbrough

“Evie was great. We felt comfortable trusting her to look after Shadow (our cat) as soon as we met her. Shadow also took to her straight away which is rare! We got updates and photos every day so didn't have to worry while we were away. This was the first time we had left Shadow with a sitter and we will definitely be trusting Evie again!”

“Louise helped me out last minute when my daughter could no longer look after my dog. We arrange a meet and greet within days. Communication was brilliant and I loved all the pictures and knowing the times of when Louise was there with Karma. I get anxious as Karma is dog reactive but this didn’t put Louise off. I’d definitely book Louise again and recommend her to look after your pet.”

About: Hi, I’m Amey ☺️ I absolutely love dogs and spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, giving them company or simply helping them feel safe and comfortable. I especially have a soft spot for nervous or sensitive dogs and understand that some need a little more patience and reassurance. I have experience caring for dogs and regularly spend time around rescue dogs, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and temperaments. I’m calm, reliable and happy to follow any routines, boundaries or training your dog is used to. I’m mainly available on weekends and would love the opportunity to spend time with a lovely dog who enjoys walks, companionship and lots of fuss 🐶🐾 I work full-time within a primary school setting during the week, so I’m mainly available on weekends and during school holidays. I enjoy spending my free time around animals and love going on walks, giving pets company and helping them feel comfortable and settled while their owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, relaxed and secure in their usual environment. I’m calm, patient and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, boundaries and any specific needs they may have. I especially understand that some animals can be nervous or need a little extra reassurance and patience.

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: Hello - I’m Ellie and currently working as a registered nurse. All my work experience revolves around taking care of others including in my current role and past. I have always loved having a purpose and making a difference in someone’s life. Although, I am referring to supporting individuals rather than animals I have being around dogs my entire life and have always being a huge dog lover even if that causes me to stop every time I walk past a dog. I have helped family members out by sitting their dogs and often have my sisters pug Rocco. I have previously had boxers so have experience with high-energy dogs even though Nala definitely tops the boxers I had. I have a DBS on the update service. I have being assessed as competent administrating medication. I have plenty of skills in my nursing role including being able to remain calm in unexpected situations, highly attentive to observing changes in behaviour or health, communication and maintaining professional boundaries, which would all be transferable into my new hobby of looking after amazing doggies. I know it can be scary leaving your furry friends in the hands of others so I will always send photos / videos, regular updates and respond quickly when required. I would be happy to have a discussion before hand whether this be face to face, meet and greet or a telephone call to make sure it is the right fit for everyone. Evenings Early mornings Weekends overnight sitting (more so on a weekend) but please message if it is outside these hours because I will accommodate where ever possible. As a nurse, I am: -Confident administering oral medications -Calm and capable in unexpected situations -Highly attentive to changes in behaviour or health -DBS checked - understand the importance of routine for a dog -like to get to know a dog and their personality to make sure I am able to adapt to their needs to provide person-centred care -always put safety first

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: UPDATED: Boarding and Training Primarily. *RECORDED TRAINING DURING STAY* Compare and Contrast Behavioural Changes. Repeat training drills at your own home later. If I'm caring for your dog - I'm training your dog Stay and Train Dog Training during stay: Boundary Limits (Door Threshold) Impulse Control / Reactivity Socialising and Appropriate Play Heel Walks Off Lead Walk Unwanted Biting and Barking How to RELAX "BEER GARDEN READY" dog Dog Training for my entire life but ACTIVELY trained and qualified for 2 year with clients. 25 Dogs have been directly in my life, from Lhassa Apso, Charpei, German Shepherd to Malamute cross. Looked after through regular walks, 1 x morning and 1 x Evening. Playtime. Long line user for full control in open spaces I currently work from home and as a remote worker can manage duties steadily throughout the day. Each morning at 7am I walk the dog for 1 hour + on lead and off lead exercise. Evening repeated I have a long and fenced rear back garden and a fenced front garden. Water is available all day, plenty of toys and shade in the garden. A dog cage is available for use if needed and 20ft long lines are available for the more curious dog that likes to wander and not return.

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.

“Ellie has been spot on gus is very shy but she won him over and we would definitely book again told me everything I needed to know for peice of mind thank you”

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: 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 love all animals and have extensive experience looking after dogs, including having fostered a dog abroad with my partner and having cared for friends and neighbours dogs in the UK and overseas Flexible and adaptable to your pets needs, however full time attention will be given due to being in between jobs after working overseas for the past 4 months. I am a very respectful person who has stayed in many places across the world. I have great reviews and would treat your dog as if they were my own!

About: I have owned dogs all my life. I have a whippet cross currently and my parents have a patterdale that I look after regularly. I have an understanding with all kinds of dogs especially reactive! I mainly work evening/night shifts so have a lot of time through the day for walking/spending time with my dog. He’s very dog friendly so would love some new friends. I have a fully fenced back garden, and my dog is very dog friendly. However I do have the time for dogs that need to be alone also.

About: I have been around dogs ever since I was a baby and I grew up with Rottweilers and mixed breeds. I also have an 11 year old miniature poodle back home in Portugal (living with my mom), and a friendly 6 month-old cockapoo living with me and my partner. I’m comfortable with different breeds and routines, as long as you provide me with this information beforehand so I can provide a warm, relaxed home where your pets will be treated like family. I work from home full-time, so pets are part of my daily routine with regular walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I live right next to a green area for quick and frequent outings, and on weekends I enjoy longer walks to parks or the beach for extra exercise and enrichment. I am available for weekday meet-and-greets and onboarding either before 8am or after 5pm. Pets staying in my home will be cared for in a calm, safe, and relaxed environment. I have a secure fenced garden for supervised outdoor time and toilet breaks. My friendly 6-month-old cockapoo puppy is also at home and can provide company and gentle social interaction, helping visiting dogs feel comfortable and settled. If required, I can also keep pets in separate rooms to ensure everyone has their own space to relax and feel at ease. I always aim to follow each pet's routine and individual needs as closely as possible.
