3. Trase P.
About: I have been looking after friends pets for over 10 years & walking friends dogs periodically to fit in with my working from home job. As I work part time from home, I am very flexible in caring for your beloved at most times to suit us both, day or night. I have a large enclosed garden, where your pet can roam freely, between walks. I have a rather elusive, friendly cat who is used to dogs but does not like being barked at or chased! I am happy for your pet to sleep in whichever room they are comfortable, but preferably not on the bed (famous last words) sofas are fine, if they are used to it especially for cuddle time. Happy to crate them or whatever they are used to for their own comfort. Please bring their own bed & comfort blanket & toys.


4. Judson R.
“Judson is a trustworthy caring and compassionate young man who loves both cats and dogs. He is patient and friendly and your pet will be well looked after by Judson. He is energetic and will love taking your dog for long walks. He was brought up around cats and has always been very caring. I would highly recommend Judson to take care of your beloved pet.”

“Emilee did a fab job looking after our 2 puppies. She spent lots of time playing with them and sent us plenty of photos so we could see what they were upto.”


6. Natasha O.
“I cannot recommend Natasha highly enough for her dog walking and house sitting services. I have relied on her numerous times for dog walking while I was at work late, and she has always been incredibly reliable, even on short notice. When I have got home, Henry’s dinner is cut up and his water bowl filled. I have also used Natasha for house sitting during my holidays, and she kept me updated with daily photos of their activities. It was so reassuring to know that my beloved Henry was well cared for and happy while I was away. Natasha truly treats every pet as her own, and I wholeheartedly trust her with my home and my furry friend”
