House Sitting in Mole Valley

“I’ve been looking for a regular sitter for my dog for a little while and I just could not be happier to have found Wendy! She’s brilliant… Communicative, fun, experienced, I knew as soon as I met her that my boy was going to be in super-capable hands and would have the best time. And he did! Wendy went the extra mile to meet with us, and understand his needs and has been so generous in every way. We can’t wait to have her back. Thank you Wendy!”

About: I have worked with animals since leaving college, from racehorses to rabbits, and everything in between. I have lots of house sitting experience, looking after a range of animals including ex racing greyhounds, guard dogs and family pets. I have grown up with cats, dogs, rabbits and Guinea pigs, and am happy looking after all of these. I am insured to walk up to four dogs at once. I currently work as a freelance equine groom and some shifts in my local pub, which allows me the freedom to manage my diary as I please. I can be flexible with my hours (with some notice) depending on what suits you! I am happy to offer a free meet and greet with your pets, to work out the best ways to manage their needs and safety!

“Anna did a great job looking after Kiki for the day. She looked after Kikis needs & was easy to communicate with. I would happily have Anna look after Kiki again.”

“Stepped in last minute so I could go to Poole with husband on a last minute work trip. She and her son took wonderful care of Angel and our home. Never worry when Eloise is taking care of Angel.”

“I am very happy to find Nicholas. Surely going to be returning soon to book again as I had been looking for someone to take care of Rio while I am away for holidays as well. Nicholas is fantastic with Rio. It was all very well taken care of and professional from meet and greet until the end of the booking. Very pleasant experience!”

About: I’ve been lucky enough to have dogs throughout my life, but more recently I’ve had 2 French bulldogs who were my absolute world. Unfortunately my baby boy Lenny became ill recently and I had to make the toughest decision to say goodbye to my beloved baby. He is now dancing in the sky with his big brother Ralphy ❤️. Since he’s been gone, life just hasn’t been the same and I miss those daily sloppy kisses and cuddles that bring me so much joy. Although I am not quite ready to get a pup of my own just yet, I would like the share the love I had for my boy Lenny with your fury companions. Creating a home away from home experience, cuddles and kisses included for free! I know how difficult it can be leaving your pet to go on holiday but please expect regular pup dates, blissful country side walks and maybe a cheeky roast on Sunday with your permission of course! I can’t wait to meet your fur babies and offer them a calming, fun and blissful retreat whilst mummy and daddy are away. I am currently expected to go into the office 2 days a week and I work from home the other days (Mon - Fri). The days I go in are flexible so I can pick these which are best suited to your requirements. I live in a secure, gated ground floor flat with private access to a fenced outdoor decking area. I also have access to a larger communal, gated front area and all 3 of my neighbours are dog lovers. My fur baby used to sleep in my bed with me so I am happy to offer this, or if crate trained this can also be adhered too. I believe pet hair on the sofa adds character and can always be hoovered up so they are more than welcome to make themselves at home! 🥰

“Victoria is fantastic! She looked after our home, and our very boisterous puppy, for 10 days. The house was immaculate on our return and our puppy couldn't have been happier. We received photos and updates while we were away which was excellent. I couldn't recommend her more highly.”

About: I have had animals my whole life through owning cats, dogs, and hamsters. I’ve grown up with big dogs so I will not be daunted by any size. I have looked after puppies training to be guide dogs and attended dog agility sessions before. I also have worked in care homes and with children so I can handle pretty much anything. I have experience cat sitting for my neighbours when I was in college. I also currently have a dog and hamster at home and live with friends who own a cat. I’m currently a full-time student and athlete however, I have days off Thursday-Sunday which gives me plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I will probably spoil them a bit too much with attention but having a furry friend is such a good stress reliever which I need as I finish my final year at University. I also play rugby competitively so I am very active and don’t mind walking in the rain or dealing with mud!! I am more than confident handling animals of all sizes and can read signs of sensitivity or unease. If your dog is food motivated then I’ll always have treats on hand to keep them safe and close and maybe teach them a few tricks if you’d like. My current dog is scared of cellotape so I understand pets can have peculiar quirks which need extra attention and caution. Regarding walks, I know how scary it is to see a stranger’s dog off the lead so I always shout ahead to check if their dog is friendly before releasing mine from command. I also am aware of specific house rules involving crate training, off the sofa, garden areas off limits etc and I will work hard to keep the cheeky pets in line.

About: In my family home we have a Black Labrador that is 9 years old in which I have helped to look after her when my parents have been working full time, which has been a lot in the last few years. I also have looked after several other dogs for people down my road where I live at home when I am not at University. I have experienced looking after people’s cats too and would be more than happy to care for them too. I am currently studying at Bournemouth University, however I am taking a year out to do a placement year after May when I finish University, so I will be in my home town and can accept a lot more bookings on weekend and in the afternoons during the week. In my house at home, I have a spacious, fenced garden. I care for my dog, Elsa in my home by regularly giving her attention and letting her out into the garden to roam, and also on long walks around the big spacious fields we live near by.

About: I have been house sitting for the past few years for family, friends and extended friends. I am comfortable with all sizes and like to keep their routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible while you are not there. Can walk as much as needed off lead or on. I have experience with elderly animals and have administered medication. I understand some may have issues with mobility and incontinence and have dealt with this before. I work full time in an office with the ability to work from home. My office loves an office dog so have the ability to take them with me. During a work day I would either walk before work, during my lunch break or after work, multiple times if needed! As a preference, I believe staying at your home is a more comfortable environment for your animals as they are in more familiar surroundings. Although my home is set up for pets, with an enclosed garden, toys and woodland on my doorstep. In a pet owners home, I try to keep them in their day to day routine, whether that is sleeping in the bed or sitting while watching tv, I want them to feel as loved and cared for as possible.

“Gemma is delightful. Extremely accommodating and, most importantly, terrific with Blue. Didn’t need much direction - used her initiative. And had a successful dog-sit.”

“Ariana was a fantastic sitter for our little pup. She was quick to respond, communicative, open and forthcoming. She obviously is well experienced with difficult dogs so could easily handle our little one with some reactivity to other dogs when walking. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Hannah was a star. It was a miserable wet day but she managed a walk with our cockapoo Lucy and looked after her admirably. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to other dog owners.”

About: I've looked after my mother-in-law's dog on and off for the last 15 years. Mitsy was a joy to have around the house. She was very playful and enjoyed going for short walks daily I am currently unemployed after working as a PA for the last 30 years. I've always enjoyed looking after dogs and now want to make it my job going forward I have a fenced garden and plenty of space to play in the garden. I'm happy for dogs to sit on the sofa and sleep on our bed

“Sophie was absolutely incredible with our nervous rescue dog Poppy! Her response time was super quick, she was so accommodating with the initial meeting and we could tell that Poppy had felt very comfortable when we came back. We couldn’t recommend Sophie enough.”

About: I've always had dogs growing up and now luckily have the space in my home and garden to have dogs to keep me company as I work from home full time. I love long walks and often on the common so would be great to have dogs to join me! I encourage good behaviour, crate training when needed and most of all a lot of fun throwing a ball! I'll love and care for your dogs whilst their with me and very happy to send updates and photos whilst they're in my care. I'd really love our own dog one day, but for now I'm more than happy taking care of yours when you need an extra hand and a loving home for them to be safe and have fun in. I have 3 young kids who also adore dogs so the dogs would need to be able to be around them/not feel threatened by them. I'm fully insured with public liability insurance. I work from home full time, live next to the gorgeous woods of Bookham common and Norbury Park and have a large well fenced garden. I can do day time or overnight care Very well fenced and safe garden, no poisonous plants that could harm a dog or child.
