“Loki loved his time with Courtney! After initially being nervous Loki soon got used to Courtney and enjoyed a lovely walk in one of his favourite places. On his second drop in visit he played his favorite game - chasing balls. We liked seeing photos of what he was getting up to. I would recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter/walker.”


About: I’m a student Veterinary Nurse, so caring for and loving animals is a big passion of mine. I’ve got many years experience with dogs,(my own included) and looking after other peoples pets too. No dog is too big or too small, and I will always give your pets the best care possible. I’m working part-time alongside a veterinary nursing placement. Despite this, I have days free that can be filled, and can do overnight stays where appropriate. I can walk, feed and give your dog company whilst you’re away. Ensuring all the basic needs are met, in addition to going above and beyond to ensure your pet is happy and healthy. Depending on what exercise your dog needs I can also cater to. I also drive so if happy for me to, I can take them on longer walks if there’s none local to your home.

About: I have grown up with dogs (My first word was my dog- Rolley!) and I see them as a essential part of my life and routine. I am now our lucky enough to have my own ; little Nellie. Therefore I am confident with both younger dogs to older dogs with more complex needs. I am familiar with cockapoos and cocker spaniels, but love all breeds. I have a medium sized enclosed garden, but are lucky enough to live in walking distance to two woods and a 20 minute drive to local dog friendly beaches! I am lucky enough to work from home, After work my favourite thing is to walk Nellie, meaning that dogs are rarely left. (Only if it is too hot for her on the beach!) I have a my own 1 1/2 year old cocker spaniel called nellie, she is very happy and loving with other dogs and loves evening cuddles My garden is enclosed. I would walk your dog on the lead at all times, unless superficially instructed. I am are also very happy to leave your dog in a different room to nellie, if/when we popped out. I have a crate if required, and am used to crate trained dogs. (Nellie is crate trained.) All dogs if travelling a car will be put a in their own car crate or on a doggy seatbelt. (As per the the law.) All dogs will be walked twice a day for at least 30 minutes*( unless you request otherwise, or there is extreme weather.)

About: I’ve taken care of cats my whole life & dogs since I was 8 years old. I frequently look after big & small dogs - GSP’s, pomeranians, sausage dogs, labradors. I also frequently cat sit after sadly losing my 2 cats a couple years ago. I work from home, I have lots of flexibility & access to a car so getting around and suiting your needs is no problem to me. I have cared for pets such as cats, dogs, reptiles, hamsters and rabbits in other peoples homes. I will give regular updates and am a genuine, honest & caring person who will always put your pets needs first.

About: As a professional and caring animal lover, looking after pets of all kinds is top of my list of favourite things to do, so to turn my passion into a business made perfect sense. All pets in my care receive plenty of one-to-one attention, play and walkies to stimulate and keep them happy. I've always had dogs so caring for all age groups comes as second nature to me. There is a large park right across from my house and your pet will get 2 to 3 walks a day, depending on their needs, together with access to my fully enclosed rear garden. Trips to the beach or woods are with owners consent, of course. I am Enhanced DBS checked and Fully Insured for your peace of mind. I almost always like to have a meet and greet (free of charge) in the first instance as it gives both the dog, the owner and me a chance to get to know each other a little to begin with. If it's a last minute booking it's fine as people get let down all the time, so I totally understand situations like that. If you can't make a meet and greet (usually takes around 20mins) I'm happy to do a video or phone call. I'm always around to offer playtime and cuddles for your pets. I believe pets are part of the family, they love our company so being there for them is very important to me. My back garden is fully dog-proof. I have a dog flap plus the back door is open all day on nice days so they may come and go at leisure. I have a pet ramp on my steps to ensure older/injured/disabled dogs can access the rear garden too. Your pet can roam around in complete safety. I have a very chilled and friendly little Cavapoo who loves making new friends. You'll receive photos of your pet so that you can relax in the knowledge they're having lots of fun whilst they're with me.

About: I grew up with two collie-cross spaniels who I had since they were puppies and absolutely adored them! Unfortunately they’re no longer with us and I’m really missing spending time with dogs. I also have experience looking after friends and family’s pets! I have also got pet care experience working on a horse yard caring for rescue horses and rehabilitating them until they could go to the RSPCA for rehoming. Last year I actually volunteered in Norway where I had to observe the behaviour and health of a wild beluga whale which was very different and an amazing experience! I love animals so much and would love to look after your doggo(s)! I currently work part time as a ranger (3-4 days a week) and these days vary each week. When I’m not working I can spend as much time with your dog as needed and when I am working I’m available before 8am and after 4:30pm. Wherever I’m looking after pets (at your home or out and about on walks etc), I try to match your routines as much as possible and stick to your instructions. If looking after your pet at your own home, I will keep it safe and secure and treat it with respect and tidiness. Your pet will be very much loved and cared for and I’m more than happy to share photos and updates!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have been around dogs regularly for the last two years. Now that I have had a dog of my own for the last year, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust — I’d be happy to help! I have experience with puppies and seniors too! I work part-time so I can do some drop ins and walks during the week. I do have some availability on weekends too, so feel free to reach out! I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for by sticking to their normal routine, giving them lots of attention, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I also send regular updates so owners know their pets are doing great!

About: I have always had a dog in my life, taking on more responsibility as I’ve gotten older. Spaniels have been a family favourite for many years - learning how to occupy their busy brains. More recently I completed an introductory level of sniffer training with our youngest dog. My capabilities don’t stop at caring for dogs, I have also owned and cared for horses for the past 9 years. Working as a freelance groom I have taken on multiple responsibilities, including dog walking and sitting. I’m currently a second year university student who has finished for the year with a long summer ahead of me, ready to be filled with fun days and loving animals within the beautiful Devon countryside. Whilst I don’t host pets in my own home, I believe it is crucial for dogs to be comfortable with a new person in their environment. I’d offer a ‘meet & greet’ service whereby I would more than happy to come and meet you and your pooch prior to the actual booking, allowing everyone to meet each other in a stress-free setting.

About: Growing up I had 6 dogs and 3 cats! Since then, I’ve taken care of a variety of pets including senior dogs, puppies and pooches with particular needs e.g. nervous dogs and/or dogs with separation anxiety. I work from home so I have plenty of time to give to your pet(s). I love going on big walks and playing on the beach with furry friends! I live in a house with a small, fenced front garden, but I have a beach which is a stones throw away and a beautiful coastal path next to it, so there’s plenty of green/blue spaces in the area to keep your pet and I entertained!

About: I used to have a loving spaniel growing up and now I regularly take care of my sisters dog (Gwen) who lives on a boat. Also take care of my boyfriends sisters dog (Bobby) who is a loving ball of fluff. But I need more !!! Love any dog and shape , big or small xxx I am finishing my PhD , but really have nothing to do so really am available most weekdays and weekends , most times of day I live in block of flats so have lovely shared garden. I live opposite Ruskin park which is a beautiful fenced park and then also close to Brockwell park which is also fenced

“Anne is such a lovely lady and felt so comfortable with her coming to my house to look after my cat. Will definitely be using her again. Very much appreciate everything she did for us!”


“Meg did a great job taking care of our fuzzy spoiled princess in our absence. Jessica was happy with her drop ins. Meg also went above and beyond doing an extra drop when our return flight delayed us by quite a bit. Will a absolutely hire Meg for future drop ins for Jessica.”


“Michelle was brilliant. We met her before we went away and felt reassured that our pets would be looked after without us having to worry. Everything was done exactly as we had expected and hoped. Would definitely ask her to help us again and recommend her to others.”


About: Hi we are Leah & Tim, we have big hearts for animals. Here is some information about us below. Leah - Hi, I'm Leah! I've always grown up with dogs and animal's since I was little and at 13 was a key help in training and caring for my collie. Since then I have grown up with him and realised just how incredible dogs are, and how lucky we are to have them. My collie Rusty passed away in 2020, since then a big part of me was taken too. I miss him dearly and miss in general a dogs presence you can be assured your dog would be so loved and cared for by me, and have lots of fun! I know how special they are, and that they are a part of the family. Tim - Hi, I'm Tim! I have been with Leah for 5 years now, during this time I had bonded heavily with her dog Rusty, realising how much a part of the family they are. I have always been a heavy animal lover. I have many pets myself ranging from fish to python to rabbits. Throughout my life I have grown up caring and looking after animals, anything from hurt hedgehogs to bats. This is something instilled in me by my family. I would love to look after and care for your dog. As with my life situation at this time I am unable to have one of my own. Look forward to hearing from you! I am currently busy monday-friday but can be available at weekends Saturday or Sunday. On these days I could be available earliest 10am and onwards throughout the day. This does not apply to myself, as I am not able to have pets stay with me at my home unfortunately. Sorry for any inconvenience.

“Nicola was amazing, went above and beyond to make sure our kittens were well looked after. She sent us daily updates with pictures and even spent time playing with them. Would 100% use her again x”


About: I've been caring for dogs and other animals pretty much all of my life. My grandma used to breed Newfoundlands so I was always helping with her gentle giants! From walking and grooming to playing and meal times. I've never not had a dog in my life and they truly do make your life a million times better. When I was 10 we got my best friend, a little whippet puppy who was just the best! We sadly lost him at the ripe age of 12 at the end of last year. It's so important to take extra care of them when they become old and fragile and having to change certain aspects of their life so they don't get down about the things they can't do anymore. I've had the pleasure of getting to know all different breeds and their personalities from Huskies to Dachshunds and Spaniels, Whippets, Staffies, Pocket bullies, xl bullies, Retrievers and Newfoundlands. We have a 7 month old pocket bully and she has to be one of the funniest and loving dogs we've ever had. Before we got her of course we did alot of research and she is such a well behaved girl. It's important that the training starts from the day you get them and I feel that if someone's dog isn't properly trained then they aren't going to know how to deal with someone elses. I adore all dogs and always treat them like they're a part of the family! I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to do what I love most which is being with animals. I also travel to Cornwall atleast once a week so I am very flexible on where I can go too! I plan on mostly doing home visits and or walks. I will ask lots of questions for example using treats etc and asking about allergies. Everyone and every dog is different so it's tailoring every experience to suit the dog and owner so everyone is happy. I know it takes a lot of trust to allow someone into your home and or to take your dog for a walk so I will be making sure I know as much as possible and listening to every word the owner says!

About: From a bustling household with five cats, a loyal dog, and majestic horses to rescuing two dogs from dire circumstances, my life has always been intertwined with animals. As a lifelong animal lover, I've become the go-to person for pet care among friends and family, nurturing every creature with the love and attention they deserve. Passionate about the great outdoors, I find joy in embarking on long walks with dogs, exploring nature's beauty and ensuring our furry friends get the exercise and excitement they crave. My professional background as a freelance chef enriches my ability to cater not just to human tastes but to canine palates as well. Yes, I whip up dog-friendly meals that are both nutritious and delicious, tailored to make mealtime a joy for your pet. Travel is a passion of mine, but when I'm home, I offer a safe and welcoming environment for your dog. My garden is fully dog-proof, ensuring a secure space for play and relaxation. Located walking distance from some of the best dune walks, your dog will enjoy endless adventures, just a paw's step away from home. In trusting your beloved dog with me, you're not just ensuring they have a sitter — you're giving them a friend who understands and shares an innate love for all creatures, great and small. Together, we'll make sure your dog's stay is as joyful and enriching as possible. I am a freelance chef. I have an events catering company, which means I have a lot of free time in-between big events. I especially have time over the winter months and the majority of my work is during the summer (weddings). I have a dog safe garden, which is big enough for a good run around. I have a work from home lifestyle, which means I have loads of time to walk, play and cuddle with your dog. I am passionate about walking and have access to incredible walks right from my house.
