“Popcorn was so excited to see Elena again. It gave me such peace of mind to have Elena, who is always so gentle and loving, take care of him as he recently had surgery. I highly recommend Elena - her kindness and patience with Popcorn. It’s clear he feels safe and reassured whenever I leave him in her care. Thank you, Elena. I greatly appreciate your care and attention with Popcorn. It means a lot to us.”

“Khushi has been a great live-in dog sitter during our recent week-long absence. She provided regular photos, videos, and updates on our dogs and very ably looked after our home. Our dogs loved all the attention and care, and Khushi left our home spotless. It was reassuring to know our dogs were so well cared-for, and she also watered plants and took out the garbage, too. We highly recommend Khushi for pet care needs!”

“Trine agreed to sit our dog Yuki at relatively short notice and was brilliant! She made sure she came round to do a meet and greet a few days before first, which was much appreciated and ensured everything on the day went smoothly. Thank you Trine, Yuki clearly loved spending the day with you, we'd love to have you sit again.”

“Miriam was brilliant! She looked after our Spaniel for two days and she had the best time. We had so many updates and some amazing photos. Would 100% recommend and will be booking again!”

“Lucyna was amazing with Sultan and Mocha. She made sure they were happy and looked after well. Not just the dog sitting, she kept my home super clean in my absence. She is indeed a star sitter and will definitely rebook her in the future. Thanks a ton, Lucyna! 😊”

“Sepideh is a dream cat sitter. She kept my Zinnia very happy and safe. Plus, she sent me lots of photos and updates. She was flexible, communicative and very friendly. Would 100% recommend and rebook. Thank you!”

“Valerie was amazing looking after our pup Tilly while we were out for the day, giving us lots of updates especially when Tilly got unexpectantly sick which she handled like an absolute pro! We felt totally confident leaving Tilly in her trusty hands!”

“Antoinette was great with Lexi. Lexi is prone to be over-territorial at first, but Antoinette was very patient and calm, leading to a soon good friendship. Lexi was so comfortable with her and it’s lovely to see how happy she had been when I got home x I had regular updates of a very excited puppy. Would definitely recommend. X”

About: Hi, my name is Jill and I’m an experienced animal care provider with a strong background in veterinary assistance. I previously worked at a clinic specialising in exotic and companion animals, where I cared for everything from birds and reptiles to cats and dogs. 🦔 🐍🐠🐢🐇🐈🦜🐩 In addition to my professional experience, I’ve also spent many years personally raising a variety of pets — including hamsters, fish, cats, dogs, hedgehogs, turtles, tortoises, and parrots — which has given me hands-on insight into their daily needs and personalities. Through all of this, I’ve developed a deep understanding of feline behavior, health needs, and how to make even the shyest cats feel safe and relaxed. I’m calm, attentive, and truly passionate about animals — I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🥰 I have a flexible schedule, available on weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to take on short-term or regular pet sitting requests. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter, I’d be happy to help care for your pet as if they were my own! With years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals – from domestic pets to exotic species – and a background working as a veterinary assistant, I offer professional and compassionate in-home pet care that goes beyond the basics. I provide services in the comfort of your pet’s own environment, where they feel most at ease. My care includes feeding, providing fresh water, administering oral medications, dog walking, cleaning litter trays, and giving pets the time, affection and attention they deserve. I’m also trained and experienced in administering subcutaneous fluids, especially for senior cats or pets with chronic conditions, handling the process gently and confidently. Thanks to my veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for animals with special medical needs, behavioural sensitivities, or those who require more specialised attention. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and always committed to following your instructions to ensure consistency and peace of mind. If you’re looking for a sitter who truly understands animals – both common and exotic – and can deliver attentive, medically informed care, I’d be honoured to support you and your pet.
“If I could give more than 5 starts to Dana , I would. She is not only an a great sitter but also an amazing person. Pedro was so happy to be with her and felt at ease from the first days with Dana. And most importantly I was really calm that Pedro was with her, and was able to enjoy my trip. Dana is a great with animals and you can seee that with the interaction she has with them. I'm really happy I trusted her with my cat.”

“Monty loved Toffy and Toffy did a great job of looking after Monty during the day while we were at work. Made the effort to distract Monty when we left, played games with him and sent us a couple of updates to make sure we weren’t worried. Would book again.”

“Teddy had an absolutely amazing time with Abi (was very snoozy the next day!!) She listened to all of our instructions and was especially good at not letting Teddy jump up, whilst rewarding his good behaviour :)”

“Ana looked after our dog at ours while we went on holiday and did a great job. He got plenty of walks and attention and Ana kept us updated throughout. Our flat was very well looked after too.”

“Emily did an excellent job of looking after our dog Otis while we were out for the afternoon. She made a real effort to connect with him playing lots of games and practising his trick training. And sent through updates of him happily snoozing away after his walk. Great communication and genuinely lovely person. Thank you so much & look forward to seeing you again soon.”

About: Animal lover with a lifetime of experience caring especially for dogs! Growing up in the countryside in Italy, I've had the joy of sharing my life with numerous furry friends - at one point, I had 17 dogs of all shapes and sizes having also rescued dogs from various backgrounds, breeds, and needs, including those requiring a little extra care due to health conditions. With experience handling small, medium, and large dogs, I'm confident in providing love, attention, and tailored care for your pet. Even training if needed, at least I’ll try :D (booked my self for a dog trainer course qualification which I should complete in one month time) I’m also currently caring for my 10-year-old Golden Retriever with hip dysplasia, further deepening my understanding of special needs pets (who, unfortunately, does not live with me!) Trust me to give your dog the love, exercise, and care they deserve while you're away… I need their love more than they need mine! I’m currently studying and rarely working, so I could take care of your furry friend for loooong days :) Uni is on Tuesdays and Fridays, 10-5pm until the 12th of December, but I can still work around timings on those days! The house where I live is quite big with two closed patios (no grass unfortunately but nice open air) I would obviously adapt myself to your need and your way to care for your dog, so I m very open to follow your instructions or help with training if needed. I am generally very good with it :)
“Corné was incredible with Caspie. She attended to all his needs and took such a great care of him. We were at ease and came back to happy boy. Will definitely book again and recommend her services”
