Naomi was amazing, I normally leave Winnie with family whilst I work in the office, so I was a bit nervous leaving her for a little longer, but Naomi was great, answered all my questions and kept in contact during the time she was looking after Winnie! She’s also provided a breakdown of how Winnie was in her care!

Liv has been absolutely fantastic with our cat Phil, who evidently from the pictures and videos sent, took a great liking to Liv! It took us years to build the trust for Phil to sit on our laps. Liv managed it in a day! Liv made a huge effort to get to know Phil and what he liked and genuinely showed an interest in him which was really important for us. He was well fed, looked after and had a wonderful fuss made of him. I’ve never been more pleased with a cat sitting service! Thank you so much Liv, you have been wonderful!

About: ve loved being a pet owner since I was 14! Today I have two beautiful cats (Brad and Janet) who I'm slowly training to do tricks like sit! Mostly though, I just enjoy petting them whilst they sit on my lap. I realised that pet sitting could be great fun while I was looking after my friends cats for three weeks whilst they were in China. It was very rewarding to earn the trust of an new animal friend and to get to know their character. Since then I have often looked after the family dog and loved taking him for long walks, regularly sit a beautiful black lab and 2 lovely, friendly greyhounds! I have also looked after lots of lovely cats whilst their owners are away, making time to get to know them. I've had some time off petsitting whilst working full time but I've now worked out some time to pick it up again and meet some lovely cats and dogs! I live in High Heaton and know loads of lovely places to walk dogs. I also have a car if your dog has a favourite place to visit that's further afield. I look forward to meeting you and your animal friend! I work full time in the city centre but happy to visit before and after work, or even at lunchtime if its close by. Can do weekends. I like to spend 30 mins to an hour at a house to make sure your animal friends gets all the attention I can give them.

Nallely is magical! Usually when I leave my chubby maine coon he is so dramatic when I return and just over the moon to see me. However, after Nallely watched him for 4 days when I walked in the door his reaction was like 'Oh its Mommy, where is the other lady??' I was SHOCKED!!! Anyways Nallely has a very special touch for kitties and I HIGHLY recommend her as your babysitter for future cat parents looking to get a way. So glad I found her :).

About: I have had large/ giant breeds dogs all my life. Most recently I have had 2 deerhounds and a greyhound rescue, I miss them dearly when I’m at uni and would love to care for animals while I’m here. I’m unavailable through the day on Mondays and Tuesdays but free the rest of the week! I also dog walk when I’m home for neighbours and do stay overs if they go away! I’m free throughout most of the week and so would love to be able to help out wherever I can. I have coursework to do and so would b able to stay with your pets all the time and would love to get out for a break to go on a nice walk. When I care for both my own dogs and neighbours dogs, they are walked 3 times a day and let out multiple times throughout the day. Dogs have the full run of our house and are allowed on furniture.

About: Lived around cats and dogs all my life, grew up with a staffie and love all types of dogs. Spent time looking after my neighbours dog who was a big labrador who needed medicine regularly. I am currently a personal trainer and swimming teacher. I woke unsociable hours so I have time to stop by during the day and at times a normal 9-5 worker can not be home. I am also a car owner. I am not afraid of dogs, I have the ability to put your pet in a crate if needed and can give medicine when required. I can also play with your pet cat or dog with any toys they have. I have my own car which I am the only driver of.

About: Hi PAW-rents🐾, I'm Aviral, a software engineer by profession and an ardent dog lover. I stay with my wife in Newcastle and we both love pets. I have raised 5 dogs ( Pomeranian, Golden Retriever and Golden Labrador) over the course of 20 years. We don't have any kids around so don't worry if your pet is not great with children. We live in a 3BHK house and have 2 (front and rear) garden spaces that dogs can use. There is a small park right in front of our house where we can take your dogs. As a previous dog owner myself I'm aware how dog care can come in the way of people planning for trips or travelling in emergencies. I'd love to help out all pet owners by taking care of their pets as my own & I love being around pets so I have my own interest at heart too 😉 When you reach us, we would arrange a meet and greet to know you and your pet and we would also like to hear your pet's caring needs. If both you and your dog feel comfortable with us, then we would confirm the booking. During our meet and greet, we would love to know: - how many walks your dog would need in a day & how long it should be - at what time he/she likes to eat and the proportion of food - if he/she has something we should take special attention such as allergy reactions to certain food or anxious reactions to certain things. If you have any specific requirements, please feel free to let us know. We would request all pet owners to provide their pets food as we would like to stick to their primary dietary requirements. During your dogs stay, we will keep you updated with photos and videos. We can assure your pet will be healthy, happy and safe with a ton of cuddles during their stay. I have a software engineering job however with a flexible work from home culture, I will be available at home whenever a dog is staying with us. My wife is currently freelancing, so she is available at home 24*7 on all days to provide timely care and attention to your pets. We are available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends. As dog sitters, we prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment for pets. We ensure regular walks, playtime, and adhere to any specific dietary needs. We maintain a routine to minimize stress and provide companionship, ensuring the dog feels secure. Additionally, we stay attentive to their cues, offering affection and maintaining a clean and organized space. Clear communication with the owner helps us understand and fulfill their pet's unique requirements, ensuring a tailored and loving care experience. We have fenced gardens, pet toys and a clean environment in the house to ensure safety.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years, with hands-on experience in walking, feeding, grooming, and even helping rehabilitate anxious or traumatized pets. My background includes successfully training an adopted Labrador with trauma, which gave me a deep understanding of animal behaviour and the patience to work with pets of all temperaments. Pet care is more than a job for me—it’s a passion. Currently, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to your pets. I’m available on weekdays after 6 PM and for full-time care on weekends, ensuring your furry friends get the care they deserve when you need it most. Your pet’s safety, comfort and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I create a nurturing environment tailored to their needs. As an athlete and experienced mountaineer, I bring exceptional physical fitness and endurance, allowing me to engage in rigorous activities like long runs or intense play sessions for high-energy dogs. My experience caring for mountain dogs in the Himalayas has honed my ability to handle dogs requiring extra stamina and attention in physically demanding environments. I’m also experienced with leash training and administering basic medications when needed.

About: Hi! I’m Lauren, and I’m an animal lover with a bit of experience caring for pets of friends and family. Whether it’s walking energetic dogs, feeding cats, or just giving lots of love and attention, I always treat pets as if they were my own. Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent years around animals and know how important it is to make them feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you’re away. I’m calm, reliable, and detail-oriented—and I’ll always follow your instructions to the letter. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate anything from special diets to quirky routines. I also love taking dogs on long walks or giving shy pets the gentle patience they need to come out of their shell. I’m currently working a part time retail job, so I have flexible availability for drop-in visits, walks, and weekend pet sitting. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend and giving them the care and attention they deserve! 🐾 I’m currently working a part time retail job so my availability changes per week however I am always free on evenings and select days throughout the week When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise making them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while sticking closely to their usual routines. I carefully follow all instructions provided—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication, or favourite toys and treats. I always take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful, energetic, or a little shy. I offer plenty of affection, attention, and enrichment during each visit, and I’m happy to update you with messages and photos for peace of mind. I also treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping things clean and secure, and making sure your pet is happy and settled before I leave. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll always care for them as if they were my own.

Ellie has been doing regular puppy visits for our golden retriever puppy, Peggy. She can be a bit anxious but Ellie has been amazing with her and she is always very calm and ready to sleep by the end of her visit. She is very reliable and always very quick to respond to any questions. I would highly recommend her and feel that she is very trustworthy!

I have known Maya for 15 years and she has impressed me with her ability to read and manage a dog from a puppy to a full grown deerhound. I used to drop off my young working cocker spaniel puppy while I walked the other two as she was too young to be out without her booster. Maya did a great job of taking her into their garden to play with her as well as learning her some obedience . She ended up a very obedient, gentle loving dog and I put that down to Mayas ability to instruct her in a loving friendly way. She has no fear of big dogs either as she walks her friends large dog up to this date. Until the later end of last year the family had deerhounds and during the males dog deteriorating health I witnessed her loving way with him and having the realisation that his time had come to an end. She was amazing. Their new dog has fit in and is well adjusted not only due to her mam, dad, sister but Maya being able to give quality time to her. She is a lovely young woman and I would trust all my dogs to her care.

Robert is great with animals, loves them like they were his own. He's used to dealing with high energy animals and can think ahead to deal with any situations which might arise. He's very reliable and will always put the pets needs first. Robert would always be my first choice to look after my own pet, and couldn't recommend him highly enough for anyone wanting someone to take care of their own pet

I have raised 5 dogs ( Pomeranian, Golden Retriever and Golden Labrador) over the course of 20 years. We don't have any kids around so don't worry if your pet is not great with children. We live in a 3BHK house and have 2 (front and rear) garden spaces that dogs can use. There is a small park right in front of our house where we can take your dogs. As a previous dog owner myself I'm aware how dog care can come in the way of people planning for trips or travelling in emergencies. I'd love to help out all pet owners by taking care of their pets as my own & I love being around pets so I have my own interest at heart too 😉 When you reach us, we would arrange a meet and greet to know you and your pet and we would also like to hear your pet's caring needs. If both you and your dog feel comfortable with us, then we would confirm the booking. During our meet and greet, we would love to know: - how many walks your dog would need in a day & how long it should be - at what time he/she likes to eat and the proportion of food - if he/she has something we should take special attention such as allergy reactions to certain food or anxious reactions to certain things. If you have any specific requirements, please feel free to let us know. We would request all pet owners to provide their pets food as we would like to stick to their primary dietary requirements. During your dogs stay, we will keep you updated with photos and videos. We can assure your pet will be healthy, happy and safe with a ton of cuddles during their stay. I have a software engineering job however with a flexible work from home culture, I will be available at home whenever a dog is staying with us. My wife is currently freelancing, so she is available at home 24*7 on all days to provide timely care and attention to your pets. We are available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends. As dog sitters, we prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment for pets. We ensure regular walks, playtime, and adhere to any specific dietary needs. We maintain a routine to minimize stress and provide companionship, ensuring the dog feels secure. Additionally, we stay attentive to their cues, offering affection and maintaining a clean and organized space. Clear communication with the owner helps us understand and fulfill their pet's unique requirements, ensuring a tailored and loving care experience. We have fenced gardens, pet toys and a clean environment in the house to ensure safety.

I cannot recommend Sudhanshu highly enough for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. My Labrador, who has struggled with anxiety and high energy issues, was in his care, and the experience was nothing short of incredible. Sudhanshu handled my dog’s needs with patience, expertise, and genuine care. He made sure my dog received plenty of physical activity to burn off excess energy while also creating a calm and nurturing environment to ease his anxiety. What truly stood out was the consistent communication—he provided regular updates, including video calls every 90 minutes or whenever I requested, which gave me complete peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone so attentive and dedicated to a pet’s well-being. My Labrador came back home happy, relaxed, and well-exercised—a testament to Sudhanshu's exceptional care. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust him again and wholeheartedly recommend him to any pet owner!

Lauren has looked after my little dog, Milo, several times now when I’ve been out for the day or away overnight. Milo can be a bit shy around new people, but he warmed to them straight away. She is incredibly kind, patient, and clearly loves animals—she always take the time to make sure Milo feels comfortable, gets his walks, and sticks to his routine. I’ve always come home to a happy, relaxed dog and even got a few lovely photo updates while I was away, which really put my mind at ease. They’re also respectful and trustworthy when in the house—everything’s always been just as I left it. It’s been such a relief knowing Milo is in safe hands!

About: I am a Newcastle University Psychology student and have a gorgeous 9 year old rescue Romanian Shephard at home in Yorkshire who I miss so much. I would love to be able to provide for a pooch that would enjoy that extra bit of love and TLC. I frequently volunteer at my local shelter whenever home and walk the dogs frequently, I have experience with both small and larger dogs and would love to be able to help you too. I am able to feed, walk, bath and cuddle your pets and give them so much love. I have a passion for animals especially dogs as I was brought up with a family always including dogs or small animals. I love all breeds no matter big, small, skinny or chunky :) I will give your pooch so much love and care ! I work Monday to Friday, however I can work from home and can be fully flexible with my working hours. Therefore I work around your schedule and dogs needs as they will be my first priority. I won’t be housing any dogs at the moment as I live in a flat, but I know many areas dog friendly around Newcastle and am happy to travel to your home to check on your pets and keep them company.

Ellie has been doing regular puppy visits for our golden retriever puppy, Peggy. She can be a bit anxious but Ellie has been amazing with her and she is always very calm and ready to sleep by the end of her visit. She is very reliable and always very quick to respond to any questions. I would highly recommend her and feel that she is very trustworthy!
