“Tatyana was very flexible and took in our dogs at short notice and had great communication throughout their stay. They were cared for well and we were very satisfied with her service.”

“Janet had a lovely home to take care of Lobo in. She was relaxed and friendly and Lobo who can be nervous when we leave her, was happy to be there. Janet took her plenty walks and took good care of her. Would definitely use Janet again.”

“Beatrice looked after Bonnie (our dog) brilliantly and sent us regular photo updates. It was Bonnie's first time being left with someone she didn't know, which made us anxious, but we needn't have worried. We would definitely use her again.”

“Wade and Michelle took amazing care of our very nervous and quite high maintenance dog, Cookie. They very kindly met Cookie in advance, and during the stay sent regular updates and photos of them on walks and snuggling on the sofa. They are a lovely family and we will be using them again.”

About: I first became a "dog Mum" 15 years ago to our Westie, Elland, who sadly we lost recently. I sadly was that annoying "Dog Mum" who had pictures of her on my desk and booked holiday for her birthday each year. I took voluntary redundancy nearly 6 years ago so have been fortunate to spend quality time at home with her and take her out and about on our own or with her other doggy friends. Unfortunately she lost her hearing about 3 years ago so learnt quickly how to communicate with her with some basic sign language. She also developed dry eye disease so I had to administer drops 5 times each day. Two of these were determined by time so I had to ensure I was available to give her these on time. The last 5 months of her life, her arthritis worsened so I bought a buggy to help her whilst out for daily walks/sniffs. I have also looked after family dogs whilst they have been on holiday and have accomodated raw feeding for one of family dogs. I live with my husband in a bungalow. He still works but is here in the evenings and at weekends. I work during examination periods at a local college but can accomodate pet sitting around this as dates are known well in advance. My contract with the college is ona casual basis so dog sitting will be my priority. We have used a local dog sitter who stayed in our home when we went on holiday. I therefore understand the importance of providing important information to the pet sitter when leaving the pet. When I first stopped working I volunteered for a local hospice helping support a family who used their services, by walking their dog on a weekly basis to give them some respite and also encourage the dog to socilise. I did this for 12 months. I also volunteered at Wood Green Animal Charity during Covid restrictions. Although I was there to help in the fundraising office, we often had dogs who weren't settling in kennels, come and sit with us in the office for the day. Some were quite withdrawn so I learnt how to slowly gain their trust. I am retired so home all day. My husband works full time but is home in the evenings and at weekends. I do some casual exam invigilating but I know dates for this in advance so will not take on any work if pet sitting is booked. I am happy to be led by the owners on when and what activity their dog (s) are used to so am pretty flexible. I have acess to my own car so can take the dog to any appointments if required. I have a fully fenced in garden (6ft) I live in a village with lots of access to quiet walks in the countryside if required, as well as walks within the village itself. I am happy to book out local secure dog fields if agreed with the owner but this will involve driving to nearby fields. As previously mentioned we live in a bungalow so no stairs. We are based in a quiet cul-de-sac so if your dog is reactive to traffic, should not be a problm here. I have space for a medium size crate if required.

“May was absolutely wonderful! Our shiba stayed with her for 10 days. She took great care of our pup. May sent lots of updates including a daily schedule, photos, and videos. May is also a dog trainer and helped to reduce how much our dog pulls on the leash. I’ll definitely book her again when I need a dogsitter.”

“Bibiana was amazing with Tato, she was very friendly, kept us informed of what was going on and took care of Tato as if he was her dog. Thanks for your help”

Daniel P.

“Rocio took great care of our dog during an overnight stay. She has a big backyard and plenty of toys to keep the dogs entertained. Our dog instantly took a liking to her and was very reluctant to come back home ?”

Archana R.

“Monty had a WONDERFUL stay with Caroline and Steph!! She sent photos and videos every day so we could see he was happy and loved whilst with them. We also had a late return and they were very accommodating with that, which was very kind. To top it all off, Monty has come back super well behaved - it’s amazing! No more jumping and he’s been so relaxed and good as gold which only confirms how well cared he was. We won’t hesitate in leaving him with Caroline again. Thank you both for loving our baby as one of yours!”

Gaelle L.

“Such a lovely couple. I have an elderly dog with complex health issues which requires a demanding routine with lots of medication. They were absolutely brilliant with her on her first trial sleep-over. She had a lovely time and didn’t seem to want to leave. I feel totally confident to book her if whilst I’m away on holiday.”

Sheila J.

“Suey is a wonderful dog sitter. I received regular updates and photos during my dogs stay with her and her partner, which made me feel reassured knowing my dog was safe and well looked after. Thanks Suey!”

Alastair M.

“Moose had a wonderful stay with Lauren. He adored the whole family and was well looked after. We were regularly updated on how he was doing. Thank you!”

Anna A.

“Maria and Ben provided lots of updates on how Albus was getting on and dealt with his quirks well. He's looking forward to staying next weekend!”

James C.

“Jan & Bruce are brilliant, very caring and made sure my dog Ted was happy and safe. He had a lovely time with them, lots of walks and games in their garden, and snoozing on the sofa. Great communication and updates on how Ted was - we will definitely be back to see them again soon! Thanks J&B!”

Julia E.

“Holly had a wonderful stay with Sasha this week! Sasha was lovely, and came to meet us in advance so we would all know who we were trusting with Holly. During her stay, Sasha sent photos of Holly nearly every day - these reassured us that Holly had settled in and was having a good time. I'd give Sasha more than 5 stars if I could, and we will definitely look to book her again next time we need a dog sitter.”

“Pam was fantastic. Took my booking just 2 hours before dropping charlie off. I had pictures throughout the day, he loved his time with you guys!”
