“Lydia was a brilliant sitter and Riley had a lovely day! Lydia was easy to communicate with and responded quickly, and kept me updated with lots of photos and updates throughout the day of what Riley was getting up to. Lydia clearly has experience looking after dogs and is a trustworthy sitter! I will be booking again :) Thank you so much!!”

“Alejandra was brilliant with our dachshund, Leo. A lovely day of walks in the park and plenty of chill time. Communication was great with regular updates and Alejandra was lovely to deal with. Thanks again!”

“Laura looked after our 3 year old Cocker Spaniel for 10 days in our home. Alba is a shy dog and feels anxious when we are away. Laura gave her lots of love and cuddles and Alba really took to her. She provided daily photo/video and message updates on how Alba was doing. I could see from these updates that it didn't take long before Alba was really comfortable with Laura. We have no doubt we will use Laura again in the future. Thank you Laura!”

“Roxy & Lolli absolutely loved Sonia from the first meet. Then on the day I felt assured they where in good hands in their own home. Got texts and pictures of them through out the day and night and could see they were having a great time. I will definitely use Sonia again. Highly recommend her. Have made a friend also 😊”

About: I used to have a dog of my own and I pet sit for neighbours all the time. I taught my dog basic skills such as sit/lay/stay/heel/etc! I am a uni student with a long summer break, so I have a lot of free time to look after your pet. I am on holiday for a few weeks but I can work around that time. I am fundraising for a Kilimanjaro climb for Dig Deep, a charity helping provide clean water in Bomet County, Kenya - all proceeds go to this! Make sure to know what needs your pet has to provide the best care possible. I will carefully consider the environment your pet is in and make sure to address any issues before taking care of your pet.
“Samantha has been such an angel during her sit with my dog, Jimmy. I felt completely relaxed and got sent photos and updates throughout the trip which were so lovely. Jimmy adored her and she’s a natural! Highly highly recommend :)”

About: I've taken care of my own dog with my parents and frequently by myself since he came into our lives. I have a strong sense of empathy for dogs and will apply that to every animal in my care. My own experience in care extends to my past career working as a Host in Iris Court Care Home, Gosmore. My time there developed my care skills even further in a professional environment. I'm so excited give my energy to looking after your animal member of the family! I'm currently studying full time so weekends are my most likely available period, however I'm always available past 5pm on Weekdays after my work is complete for the day. My own home is very secure, I live with my parents, sister and girlfriend all of whom have experience caring for a dog. My own dog is very social and well tempered providing a homely environment for your dog
“Megan is absolutely fantastic! She’s a lovely, caring person and follows instruction well when house sitting. She was gentle and considerate of our dog, Mitzy and two Guinea Pigs. 10/10 recommend, will definitely use again! Thank you 🥰 xx”

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.
About: Hi, I’m Anna, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me, it’s something that genuinely brings me joy. My experience: - 20 years of hands-on pet care for dogs and cats, including rescues, scaredy cats and big dogs! Also have experience administering medications & treatments, and am happy to do this. - I have previously provided overnight stays, drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding etc. - I’m familiar with feeding routines, special diets, enrichment activities and so on. I also have experience of taking care of dogs who resource guard. I work from home so I’m available for regular check-ins, extended visits, and last-minute bookings. I send daily updates and photos for your peace of mind. My calm, patient approach helps nervous pets feel safe and secure. Because I work from home, pet care is naturally woven into my daily and weekly routine. My flexible schedule means I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs; whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle sessions. Whether your pet stays with me or I care for them in your home, my priority is always their comfort, safety, and happiness. 🐕 In My Home: Pets can relax in a peaceful home with comfy spots to nap and play. Walks, feeding, playtime, and rest all follow your pet’s regular schedule as closely as possible. Since I work from home, your pet gets constant companionship and care throughout the day. 🏠 In Your Home: For pets who feel more comfortable in their own space, I offer reliable in-home care. This helps maintain their normal routine while you’re out. I follow your feeding, walk, and play schedule to keep things consistent. I am respectful and trustworthy, and will treat your home as if it was my own.
“Absolutely fantastic!! Krystal was great, kept me updated throughout her stay with videos and photos of Kai. Left the house as she found it and was a pleasure to deal with. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up around my family and friend’s pets, however never had the chance to have my own unfortunately. I have experience pet sitting for up to 2 weeks for dogs and cats I have graduated from university and have been travelling! I am currently working before i do some more travelling next year! I work part time so defiantly have time to help! I am very responsible, wouldn’t take any risks with your fur baby. Will do what is asked of me safely and give some extra cuddles
“I’ve never used a house sitter before and was nervous, but Cheryl was brilliant. Lots of communication & our dog absolutely loved her, would happily rebook again.”

About: We always had cats in my family when I was growing up, and I had my own adorable Lulu for 13 years. Over the past 10 years I've been trusted to take care of my brother's cocker spaniel Buster and by best friends four dogs!! I'm calm and caring and have a good knowledge of etiquette whilst out walking. I am self employed, work from home during the week with a lot of flexibility, work most Saturdays around the country but with quieter periods of the year. My flat is very secure and a very safe building. It's not massive but it's super cosy, I fostered cats for a couple of years and they all loved being here.
About: I've been around dogs and animals my whole life, having personally owned two Labradoodles and a Beagle. I am very patient and kind with animals and always stop to pet dogs in the park and on the street. My work is very flexible and is always remote, weekends are more difficult as I travel a lot but I'm free most weekdays all day. I've always grown up around dogs and have a girlfriend who works with dogs professionally so they're always around. I'm very understanding of a dogs needs and love to play and have fun with them.
“Karen and her daughter were fantastic with our 10 month old staffy, Cillian. Our puppy is a bit insane and his energy levels are incredibly high so I can’t thank them enough for looking after him so well. Karen sent me photos and videos of Cillian throughout the day which helped a lot as I’m quite nervous going out without him. Highly recommend 👍🏽”
