House Sitting North Ayrshire

“Rachael was amazing with my 2 dogs & my cat, I was very last minute to look for a sitter for the animals and Rachael accommodated for me, I was so anxious about leaving the animals with someone we didn’t know however Rachel put me to ease and kept me updated with pictures and how they all were, I will definitely use Rachael again for the care of my animals, highly recommend ☺️. Thank you again x”

About: I have had animals my whole life. Both cats and dogs hold a very large space in my heart. After loosing my partners dog a couple months ago the hole in my heart is definitely needing filled. I love the beach and anything out in the country side. I have a horse so being outdoors is my norm. I’m currently a nursing student looking to gain a little extra money whilst doing something I love. I’d love to house sit within the comfort of your dogs home. Keeping them as comfortable and as settled as possible. I’m a student nurse so during placement I’m not as able to care for your furry friends but outwith that my time is very flexible. I work bank for the NHS Ayrshire and Arran so I chose shifts that fit into my schedule. I will be happy to not pick up shifts when caring for your fur baby. I will follow any care plan you have set. I will cater the needs of your part to how they are cared for by you.

About: I've taken care of small animals all my life and grew up with dogs. I'm a fully qualified vet nurse and have worked in the veterinary profession for almost 4 years. Animals are my life and I care for them for a living as well as my own at home. I'd also care for small furries if given detailed instructions. I'm currently working full time as an RVN so my schedule may be quite difficult to manage. I am available most evenings and weekends for walking/home sitting. I unfortunately can't offer services in my own home as I have a reactive German Shepherd who appreciates her own space. I would love to care for animals in their own home and stick to their normal routine as much as possible. I also give loads of hugs but I can give them their space if needed.

About: I have many years experience with pet care, including working in a Veterinary Practice, dog walking, check in’s and even overnight stays! Everyone who had met me, have said they fully trust me with their pet and couldn’t picture anyone else more suited to take care of them and to rely on. I currently own an almost 2 year old Collie named Clover who is my whole world :) I currently work at a small business Animal shop a couple of days a week. I am open for bookings on Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday, Saturday and Sunday's, offering single and group walks. In the near future I am planning on making dog walking my full time job. I have always had a family dog growing up, and I currently own a Broderick Collie with my fiancé. So I have tons of experience caring for dogs and love being around them! By working in a Veterinary Practice, I have been trained in handling, health and safety and taking care of the pets we had in care. Over the years I have had friends and family reach out to myself to look after their pets including dogs, cats, fish and chickens. At home I also own guinea pigs and rabbits, so I have had a wide variety of animal care and experience.

About: Hi! I’m a passionate and reliable dog carer with many years of hands-on experience looking after a wide range of breeds, including Boxers, Patterdales, German Shepherds, and mixed breeds. I’m confident handling dogs of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies who need structure and play, to gentle senior dogs who require patience, comfort, and a slower pace. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs and understand the importance of routine, medication schedules, and providing a calm, attentive environment. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and wellbeing will always be my top priority, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am currently working from home on a non strict timetable, so i am fully able to care for any pets, including walks, relaxing times, feeding, boarding Your dog’s happiness and wellbeing are my top priority. Their day will include plenty of walks, playtime, sniffing adventures, cuddles on the sofa, and quiet time to relax. I aim to keep routines as close to home as possible so dogs feel comfortable, settled, and stress-free. I have completed several animal care certifications including Animal Care, Stray and Feral Welfare Management, Introduction to Kennel and Cattery Management, Introduction to Feline Care, Introduction to Cat Grooming and Health, Introduction to Cat Behaviour, and Introduction to Animal Care. This training helps me understand animal behaviour, recognise stress signals, and provide calm, attentive care for every pet.

“David and May were lovely and looked after my little handful Bella overnight. They were very attentive to all Bella’s needs and I would highly recommend them to look after all fur babies as they are such caring people. Even though Bella don’t get along great with their own dog Toby 🐾 they did a fantastic job looking after her.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always been comfortable caring for them, walking them, and understanding their different personalities and needs. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand how important it is for owners to feel their pets are safe, happy, and well looked after, and I always aim to provide calm, caring, and trustworthy support. I’m happy to follow feeding routines, provide regular walks, playtime, and give pets plenty of attention and care. I’m especially good with friendly family dogs and making pets feel comfortable and relaxed around me. I work Monday to Thursday, so I am available for pet care on Fridays, weekends, and some evenings depending on the time. I can also be flexible with advance notice. I’m happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet care during these times, and I will always make sure I plan my schedule properly so I can give pets full attention and reliable care. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so the pet feels comfortable and secure. I pay attention to feeding times, fresh water, walks, and any specific instructions given. I take a calm and patient approach with animals and always treat them with care and respect. I understand that every pet has their own personality, so I take time to make sure they feel safe and relaxed around me. I am based in North Ayrshire and am reliable, tidy, and respectful when visiting someone’s home. I always aim to provide trustworthy and consistent care so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: Hi, I’m Emily, a lifelong animal lover and proud Registered Veterinary Nurse. Having shared my life with both cats and dogs for many years, I understand just how much they mean to their families and the peace of mind it brings to know they’re being cared for properly while you’re away. With my veterinary nursing background, I don’t just bring experience in everyday care and handling—I also offer the reassurance of knowing your pet is in experienced hands. Whether it’s administering medication, monitoring their health and wellbeing, keeping an eye on subtle changes in behaviour, or simply providing companionship, cuddles, and playtime, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I know that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether you have an energetic dog who loves long walks and adventures, or a quiet cat who prefers a gentle fuss and familiar surroundings, I tailor my care to suit them as individuals, helping them feel happy, relaxed, and comfortable in their own home. My goal is to make sure you can truly relax while you’re away, knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and receiving the highest standard of care from someone with both professional experience and a genuine passion for animal welfare.

“Denise and her partner were great sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Our dog and cat were very happy with them, and Denise sent us daily updates. The house was spotless when we returned - the bedding was even laundered and fresh towels put in the bathroom. They even thought to leave us bread, milk and butter. So thoughtful, communication was excellent and it felt good to know our home and pets were so well looked after.”

About: Experience with energetic puppies from my own pup! I live 5 minutes walk from the beach for prime walks & play time. I have experience with senior dogs also though it is more limited. Im currently working part time nearby, often evenings. So I have plenty of time for pet sitting or walking during the day time! The beach is only 5 minutes away from me Experience with energetic pups from my own, we have a large backyard all fenced in. I mostly offer dog walking but am happy to pet sit within another home

“This is our second time getting Robyn so mind our girls and honestly I think my cats now prefer her to me 😂😂 she is amazing with them, her communication is incredible I feel so at ease knowing she is with them and I don’t think I would trust anyone else now as Robyn sets the bar so high 🩷”

“Jessica took excellent care of our older Staffy during her 4-night/5-day stay in our home. He requires medication and had a slight limp (caused by a little too much running on the beach), so he needed a little extra attention and care. Jessica was gentle, attentive, and clearly mindful of his needs throughout. She managed his medications reliably, ensured he was comfortable, and was sensible about taking him for walks when he was up to them. We returned to a happy, relaxed dog. We would be happy to have Jessica care for him again and would confidently recommend her to others.”

“Taya was absolutely fantastic stepping in last minute before I went away on holiday. She went above and beyond and really appreciated everything she did while I was away. Poppy is a very fussy, stubborn dog and not sure of strangers but Taya had sat for poppy before so was pleased I could book her again. I felt happy and confident that poppy was getting on fab while away with all the updates and a surprise that she was eating her food as she is usually stubborn and can go days without eating so I knew that she was very relaxed and comfortable with Taya when she told me she was eating. Absolutely amazing experience with Taya, would recommend 100%.”

“Angela looked after Sammy for us on Friday 3rd April for our sons wedding. I can honestly say we were so happy when we met her she was so friendly and most of all Sammy really liked her which is great because he's quite nervous of strangers. I will certainly book Angela again .”

Frances O.

“An absolute superstar, thanks again Sidney! She stayed in our home for 1 week taking care of our dog Charlie, sent regular updates and photos and left our house is such a nice and clean state. Everything went so smoothly and we left on our first holiday together with our children knowing Charlie was left in safe hands with lots of attention, cuddles and calmness ☺️ would without hesitation book you again and recommend you to whoever was looking for a reliable and kind soul to look after your four legged best friend 💞”

About: As a long term owner & lover of hounds, I have a deep understanding of their unique needs & sensitivities. I’m home-based & with mine most of the time, so I decided to open my doors to more. I’ve found it can often be challenging to find sitters who truly understand how these beings tick. I’m definitely a hounds over humans kind of person & never tire of spending time around them & getting to learn about their quirks. I specialise in the care of Greyhounds, Whippets, Saluki’s, Italian Greyhound's, Galgos, Deerhounds, lurchers & at the opposite end of the spectrum- little Dachshunds. I have owned a Deerhound in my time, & currently own two Saluki’s & a little sausage. I also have years of experience under my belt with my sister’s rescue Greyhounds, who each came with their own stories & considerations to navigate. My Saluki’s enjoy being around other hounds, though they are well versed in understanding that the final word belongs to the Sausage! (this also applies to the humans in the house…) I work from home & am around for the hounds 24/7. I am incredibly fortunate to have access to a secure dog field each morning, so a typical day involves giving them a free run in the morning & back for chill time. I’m located opposite a park so extra mooches if required are readily available. I’m guilty of going a little overboard to create a calm space for hounds to relax. We have beds everywhere & they are free to roam in & out of the fully fenced garden as & when they please (when dry of course). On good days they’re free to lounge in the sun. For indoor snooze time, snuggle blankets are non-negotiable & relaxing dog music is often played. Ridiculous I know, but they love it! If you require sitting in your own home, I would be keen to learn all about your hounds routine & needs, & will happily follow their rule book.
