House Sitting in Newham

“We have had the pleasure of having Elana look after Elvis in May for 5 nights, and recently for 1week…. She is absolutely amazing…. We was able to fully relax knowing that she was with Elvis the whole time and In his own home. We had photos and videos sent daily of all the walks, baths, cuddles, feeding times, and this was fantastic so we could see how much Elvis was enjoying himself! Elana is exceptionally respectful of our home and left it immaculate for when we came home which was a gift in itself! I couldn’t speak any higher of this fabulous lady! Thank you so much! We all love you loads!”

“Molly has sat for us twice and has been great. Our Mushu is a rescue and takes time to trust new people but Molly has been patient and gentle and Mushu really seems to like her. She provides regular updates and cute photos. We'll definitely be asking about her availability again soon. Thanks Molly.”

“Shivanjali has sat our dog Yuki twice now in our home and both times she was brilliant! Good level of contact whilst we were out, took Yuki for walks and lots of indoor play and cuddles. Yuki clearly had a great time. Thanks Shivanjali!”

About: I am a professional and trusted cat-sitter and dog-walker. Your Pet My Job🐾 I always check in with pet owners beforehand to understand their little one’s needs, routines, and any no-go zones - safety and comfort are everything. When cat-sitting, I make sure windows and balcony doors are securely closed and toilet seats are down. It’s the small details that make all the difference! I believe pets deserve the same love and attention as everything else in life - think leisurely park strolls, playful afternoons/evenings, and plenty of pampered downtime together. I take time to understand commands, training specifications, and personality traits before any walk. Knowing a dog’s temperament keeps me in control, helps me read situations early, and allows me to diffuse anything before it has a chance to escalate. During our meet and greet, I ask that owners share any behavioural concerns or special needs their pet may have - such as anxiety - so I can ensure the most comfortable, tailored experience possible. I also ask that all pets are registered with a vet prior to my care, so that in the unlikely event of an emergency, we’re fully prepared. It’s about creating a safe, happy experience for every pet in my care. I’m self employed so extremely flexible, available weekends. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I work from home and occasionally on location. During our meet and greet, I ask that owners share any behavioural concerns or special needs their pet may have - such as anxiety - so I can ensure the most comfortable, tailored experience possible.

“Adriana did a great job with Bailey. He can be an excitable dog and Adriana immediately seemed to settle him and put him right at ease, which made us feel completely confident in leaving him. During the sit we were kept updated with how things were going and we came back to a happy and content dog, which is always the main thing. Would absolutely recommend Adriana.”

“Fiona was an excellent cat sitter - excellent communication before and during the cat sitting, and she took care of our cat amazingly. She was also very quick on the uptake with any instructions about food, timing, playtime, and so on. We felt very reassured knowing that Fiona was looking after mini and she was very accommodating when our flight back was delayed. Would 100% recommend and would book again 🙂”

“Sophia was wonderful with my two sight hounds. One is a rescue and a little nervous, but Sophia made her feel totally at ease. She did a great job, and I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Kasia is the most caring, thoughtful and generous sitter we've had. She really had our dog's best interests at heart. We can't wait to have her over again!”

“Miriam looked after our dog Bonnie and our cat Canute over New Year’s for a full week, and we couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter. She kept us updated every single day with messages and the cutest photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our fur babies were clearly happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. We also came home to an utterly spotless house, which was such a lovely surprise. 10/10 recommend booking with Miriam 🐾 a truly wonderful human, and we will absolutely be booking her again in the future.”

“Ana Sofia was AMAZING. Our dogs were so well taken care of and I was able to have a very relaxed weekend knowing my dogs were in great hands. Ana Sofa sent us constant updates ( just the right amount)”

“Ali took great care of Peanut for us while we were out all day. He was clearly very comfortable with bigger dogs and gave Peanut a great day with a couple of walks and plenty of play. Peanut was sad to see Ali leave but quickly fell fast asleep from a very full day together. Definitely booking Ali again in the future!”

About: Hello! My name is Karolina and I am a corporative receptionist. On my spare time I love to paint, draw and read. The love for cats is something very special for me. The independence, curiosity and most importantly their spontaneity is always ending up surprising me on how entertaining cats can be. As having a little boy named Kisa myself, he makes my life even more wonderful. I am currently a full-time worker, but I am very flexible on morning and evening visit, so as weekend. Time can be negotiated, as per request. The type of service I’d offer as a cat sitter, is very much similar to the care I provide to my own cat. I will be taking care of cleanliness, food top up, cuddliness, play interaction and most importantly making sure the cat gets full attention

“First time leaving our puppy over night with someone else. Theodora was a fantastic sitter and took all the stress away so we could enjoy our event. She was punctual and professional. Our puppy took to her almost immediately, you can tell that she has a lot of experience and love for dogs. Theodora also kept us updated to date with photos and little snippets of their adventures which really helped keep our anxiety in check! Can't recommend enough!”

“Nicole was just amazing. Took good care of my puppy and my home too. It was such a great experience to go on a holiday without any headache, she gave me updates and were always on time. Removing my worries made my holiday complete. Thank you so much!”

About: I have grown up with pets all my life, having owned miniature schnauzers since the age of ten. I would love to care for the beloved dogs of london as my pup is back in Ireland where he lived. I absolutely adore them and can assist in caring for any range of age of dogs from young puppies to elderly, both through the experience of owning my own pets and the other dogs that I have cared for. My experience in sitting for others ranges from a lively cocker spaniel puppy recently to an elderly shih tzu and I would love to leave others with a peace of mind that their pet is being well cared for in their absence. I can also teach some tricks, such as roll over and paw depending on how cooperative your pup is :) (My mini schnauzer took some convincing and lots of treats 🤣) When I am not required to be in the office or travel for work (i would mark myself as unavailable/not accept bookings in these cases) I have great flexibility and can work from home so I would be able to accompany your pet all day and take them out for multiple walks throughout the day, they would not need to be alone for stretches of time over an hour or so, and even then I can adjust my schedule to ensure any anxious pets that need more company are not left alone and I am with them. I enjoy long walks daily so your pet would be well cared for and well walked. I have a large outdoor balcony with a high and contained fence but also I live beside large green spaces more importantly with great areas to walk the pets. I am also located beside Victoria Park for long walks and fresh air. My apartment is well locked up and no easy access at all for pets to get out onto the street as it is on the third floor and doors and windows can all be easily secured. It is also not overly cluttered and there is very little in terms of hazards, Overall I would be a available to stay in the home of the pet if you would prefer that and am willing to travel within London to accommodate this.

About: I've been looking after dogs for friends and family for years, from energetic young ones to slower, older dogs who just want company and a comfortable routine. Senior dogs are where I'm happiest. I've got a lot of patience for the extra care they need, whether that's shorter, gentler walks, keeping an eye on how they're feeling, or just being around so they're never on their own for long. I work from home most of the day, so your dog isn't shut in waiting for me to get back. There's someone here, the routine stays steady, and there's always time for a walk, a play, or a nap on the sofa. I offer boarding at mine, dog walking, drop-in visits and day care, and house sitting in your own home, so we can find whatever suits you and your dog best. I look after other people's dogs the way I'd want mine looked after: carefully, calmly, and with a lot of affection. I work from home, so my day is built around being here rather than rushing out. Mornings usually start with a proper walk before I settle into work, with breaks through the day for play, toilet trips, and a bit of fuss. Lunchtime is another walk, or a longer wander if the weather's good. Evenings are relaxed: dinner on time, a final stroll before bed, and plenty of company on the sofa. I keep to whatever routine your dog already knows, since that's what keeps them settled. If your dog has set feeding times, medication, or a walking schedule, being home all day means I can stick to it. In my home, your dog gets a calm, clean space with room to relax and somewhere comfortable to sleep. I keep doors and gates secure, never let a dog I don't know off-lead until I'm sure they'll come back, and introduce new dogs slowly so nobody feels crowded. In your home, I stick to your house rules, keep things tidy, and send photo updates so you can see your dog is happy while you're away. I'm careful with keys, alarms, and locking up. Either way, I'll always ask about vet details, feeding, allergies, and anything that makes your dog anxious before the first visit, so there are no surprises and your dog feels safe with me from the start.

“I can’t recommend Ruhi enough - she was lovely with Murphy, and sent me lots of updates, including pictures where he looked so happy I could tell he was having a lovely time!”

“Gianmarco was very kind with Vinci and communication was easy. We will certainly rebook at the next occasion.”

About: Hi, I’m Neri! I’ve always loved animals especially dogs. Growing up, I wasn’t allowed to have one, though I did have a guinea pig named Chipa. I used to visit my cousin often just to spend time with their dog, Cepa. Later, I volunteered at a pet shelter where I cared for dogs by cleaning, walking, and washing them. This experience helped me understand that every dog is different and needs an individual approach. I’ve also worked with dogs of different ages, including those with anxiety or health issues, and have learned more about dog behaviour over time. I’ve previously worked as a pet sitter on Rover and am now excited to return, as I have more free time to dedicate to caring for pets. I have experience with house sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits, and you can find reviews on my profile. Although I can’t have a dog in my current flat in London, I truly enjoy spending time with them. In my free time, I love going for walks in parks or along the canals, exploring the city, and staying active, perfect for keeping your dog happy and engaged. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions I’d love to help! Thanks, Neri I am pretty flexible during weekdays and weekends. Can also adapt depending on your needs. Would sometimes need to work on my laptop if it’s let sitting. I care for them by providing exercise, play time, food etc. I have a lot of experience with dogs so depending on their needs I can adapt.
