“Pippin was as well looked after and cared for as ever! We love the photos and never have any concerns. Pip almost pulled our arm off she was so happy to arrive and see Jess.”


“This was our first time leaving our dog Jude with Andy and his partner Kadie and we’re so happy to have found two such lovely people to look after Jude. Andy and Kadie were happy to do a meet and greet with Jude beforehand and their love for dogs was clear to see. Jude was comfortable with them straight away and they were wonderful with him. Communication to arrange the stay was fab and they kindly sent us messages and pictures during the stay which was really reassuring. We’d 100% leave Jude with Andy and Kadie again and recommend them to anyone. Such genuine lovely people and Jude thinks they are pawsome too! 🐾 🐶 Thanks Andy and Kadie and hope to see you again soon!”


“Cosmo had a lovely time staying with Angelika. He got to socialise and play with other dogs which he doesn't normally have the chance to do. Angelika provides lots of updates and photos of Cosmo while he was staying with her which reassured us that he was happy.”


“Casper had an amazing time with Nathalie and her lovely dog, Tilly! I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter during the month-plus I was away. Nathalie took such great care of my fur-baby, she kept me updated regularly with thoughtful messages, adorable photos, and fun videos that really put my mind at ease. It was clear that Casper felt right at home. I’m so grateful to have found someone so kind, reliable, and attentive. Highly recommend!”


“Upon meeting Fiona on the first visit I knew our dog will be carefully taken care of. Kira’s first boarding confirmed it. I felt completely at ease during her boarding, receiving regular updates and photos about her and how she was doing. Fiona really cares for the dog she’s looking after treating Kira as if she was hers. Fiona’s home is clean, spacious and really welcoming and Kira definitely enjoyed all of it. I would not hesitate next time Kira needs to be looked after for a day or more, and would bring her back to Fiona’s care.”


“Sarah was perfect for our little sheltie Tali. Tali is an elderly dog and quite timid so needs a bit of understanding. Sarah was fantastic with her and made her feel totally comfortable. We received photos and little videos very regularly. Thank you so much for a brilliant service. We will definitely be using Sarah again if possible.”


“Claire is Amazing! From the moment we had our meet and greet she was so kind and welcoming. Her love of dogs was obvious and she did not treat Freddie with anything but love. He had the most amazing time and got spoilt rotten. Lots of daily photos keeping us up to date on how much fun Freddie was having and helped us out with timings during pick up. I could not recommend you more highly and I have no doubt in my mind it’s you who we will ask to have Freddie if we go away! Thank you”


“I can't thank Catherine and her daughters high enough. They treated her like she was their own. Sums it up my dog Bella didn't want to leave. I wish I could giver a dozen stars. You want quality dog sitting, she is the one to use. Brilliant”


“Lauren was amazing and I’ve already booked her to take care of Brooklyn, my GSD/Husky mix, while I’ll be traveling in May. This was the first time Brooklyn has not been with me overnight and thanks to Lauren it went very smoothly. Her Flat also has a fenced garden which was great for my dog. Highly recommended. Thankyou again Lauren.”


“Tiffany did a fantastic job looking after my dog, managing his ‘stuck in the way’ routine, ensuring he got his meds and more importantly the love and attention he craves. She also provided plenty of great updates so we knew we did not need to worry about him while we were away. I would highly recommend her.”


“Alice and Andy took great care of our Nala! Having looked after Murphy previously, we felt extremely comfortable knowing Nala was in good hands! They both have a great time when with each other and we look forward to Nala staying again in the future! X”

We work from home so have plenty of time to play with your pup! We walk Lettie on our lunch break so your dog will be able to join us! We can do boarding in the week and some weekends. We have a fully fenced garden so your dog will be perfectly safe playing outside. Lettie, our dog, will also keep them company. We can crate dogs if needed and have plenty of spare beds and toys to make them feel at home

About: I have had doggies for over 20 years, in this time i have had various breeds from black labs to our current little Boston Mango, As you can imagen over the years we have attended numerous doggy schools, all be it we don't have any formal qualification we will always be happy to help with your training (if required) when you care for you dog I am a stay at home mum with my own business so is generally at home majority of the day minus the odd school run etc, Dave currently works nights so is around to assist with the doggy walks during the day and when I am off out on school pick ups. I have a patio and fenced back garden which the dogs can explore and play. I also live a short distance away to Fairlands park and other fields in the area so the dogs will always have a enjoyable and adventurous walk

About: Lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience from puppyhood through senior years. Our spoiled 5 year old cockapoo currently runs our household. I'm comfortable with different energy levels and temperaments. Our garden gives dogs tonnes of space to explore, burn energy, and play. Your dog will get plenty of 1-on-1 attention and live their best life. You can expect lots of pictures from at home and on walks to let you know how they’re getting on. 🦮🐶 I work from home full time, so dogs get constant supervision and companionship. My day naturally includes regular walk breaks, and I can adapt to any schedule your dog is used to. Whether they're nappers or need frequent attention, I'm available throughout the day. I'm admittedly overprotective when it comes to dog safety, which I think most dog parents appreciate! Proper lead handling is essential, and your dog will have my full attention at all times. We have crates and pens available for dogs who like their own space or follow specific routines. Our 120ft garden lets dogs explore and run about on a long lead.

About: I've always had a deep love for animals and take great joy in caring for them. Whether it's walking dogs, feeding pets, or simply giving them the attention they deserve, I treat every animal as if they were my own. Over the years, I've not only provided pet sitting and dog walking services but have also supported animal welfare by volunteering with a local animal sanctuary and contributing to a small animal rescue. Being around animals is truly rewarding, and I’m passionate about making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine, as caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Whether it’s early morning dog walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I’m flexible and committed to making sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I enjoy structuring my days around caring for animals—it keeps me active, connected, and doing something meaningful. Fitting pet sitting into my schedule isn’t just convenient; it’s something I look forward to every day. I offer flexible pet care, looking after animals both in my own home and in their familiar home environment. Whether pets stay with me or I come to them, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved. At my home, I provide a calm and pet-friendly space with plenty of attention and care. When caring for pets in their own homes, I follow routines closely to maintain a sense of normalcy and reduce stress. I’m committed to making every pet feel secure and cared for, no matter where they are.
