About: I’ve grown up with dogs as well as now owning two of my own who are about to turn 5 and 2 in January. I currently have a standard dachshund and an English bull terrier. When I was younger and living with parents we had two Viszlas, and later on a large Munsterlander who I still take care of sometimes. I have plenty of experience with a range of dogs personality and size wise. I am long haul cabin crew but am currently grounded / not fit to fly so can be available pretty much every day and time convenient. If doing drop in visits at your home I would be sure to stick to exact routines laid out by you to make your pet feel at ease.
“Cheryl was easily available to do a drop in for my dog the day before I had to be away. She was even able to come the day I reached out to her and meet him. Thank you!”

“Holly is by faw and away the best cat sitter we have ever had. Our cat is incredibbly difficult to look after and isn't particularly friendly. Holly put in a lot of effort to get to know Keo and won her over very quickly. Also, Keo required a daily tablet which has to be given to her orally, which is again, incredibly hard. She dealt with this really well and no trouble at all. We have tried 6 or so sitters and Holly was the only sitter that managed to look after Keo successfully. Thanks so much Holly!!”

“Alex is wonderful! She was so attentive and caring with our Labrador and took the time to meet us before hand to talk through what we needed and ti meet Parker. We will absolutely Alex again. 😊”

About: Im about to be made redundant and starting my own pet business so will have enough time to drop in to your little fur babies. I will be visiting homes from trusting clients. I offer a calm loving approach and treat every cat like they are my own. Each cat will receive the highest care.
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life, from hamsters to cats, and more recently I grew up with two lovely black labradors - Charley and Flo. Flo is still bouncing around at the age of 12 and does come for a sleepover now and then, but I do miss having dogs around so am keen to share my love for animals with others. Whether its a walk around the block or staying over I would love to help out. I fit my schedule around what is best for your dog as I know many have their preferred routine. Whether that’s walking at certain times or eating at 3pm on the dot! Your dog will feel like it is at home. With toilet breaks around the clock and being played with to keep them entertained along with lovely long walks in the local green spaces, I will do my utmost best to make sure they are happy.
“Sophie is absolutely lovely. She kept me updated on how Biscuit was, which was so reassuring. She remembered everything I asked of her, even though we met a few weeks before I went away. Biscuit was her normal happy self when I got home, not out of sorts at all and clearly well looked after. Sophie even wash up the mug I had left in the sink and not a cat hair in sight, so she must have swept the floors too, which she didn’t have to do, but it was such a lovely touch to come home to. Will definitely call on Sophie to help me again in the future. She’s great!”

“Very professional. Sent lots of nice photos and videos and kept me informed throughout the day. Took the weather and time alone for Sandy into consideration. He was super calm and happy when I returned.”

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
“Alex is incredible with our dog! We needed an afternoon visit when we went for a day out, and ended up needing a second visit on the same day as we got stuck in traffic, which she very kindly accepted to help with. Alex is patient and kind with our dog, and we really appreciate having someone like her to count on! Thank you, Alex!”

About: I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, crabs and even a cow as my own pet. I love all animals and am experienced in raising dogs and cats especially. Drop me a message and see how I can help with your furry friend! I work from home and have a malamute Riley, who I have raised myself since he was 9 weeks old that stays with me. We go out for runs, walks and playtimes, and training times. It's very easy for me to look after or train another furry friend as I'm taking care of Riley. I have a fenced backyard, an open living room, downstairs floor of my house has been puppy proofed and I also have cameras to keep an eye on them wherever I am in the house. I can look after your pet, play with them or train them to do specific commands. I have extensive knowledge about diets of numerous types of animals and breeds.

About: Hi! I offer friendly, reliable pet sitting for when you can’t be there. Whether it’s daily visits, walks, overnight stays, or just some extra playtime and cuddles, I’ll make sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved in their own home. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always keep you updated while you’re away — so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands! I’ll be finishing my studies next year to become a fully qualified veterinary nurse. I am able to safely and responsibly administer all types of medications should your pet require any. I have been pet sitting for the past 5 years, looking after a range of different animals. I am respectful and trustworthy, so rest assured your house will be clean and well looked after whilst you are away! I currently work full-time 3 days a week at a Vets in Watford alongside my studies. My long days are Tuesday&Thursday, but I will always do my best to accommodate for you and your furry friends! Please feel free to drop a message if you have any questions or would like to discuss my services further! 🐾 At home, I have a Westie, a DSH Ginger cat and 2 horses. I’m knowledgeable and reliable when it comes to pet ownership and care. Unfortunately, I don’t currently offer boarding at my own home due to having my own pets, but do offer house-sitting whether thats dropping in throughout the day and/or living in at your property. Whatever works for you and makes your pet more comfortable.
About: I have extensive experience handling, walking and often training dogs. I've worked with dogs full time in the past, and also volunteered with dogs in my spare time. I can handle dogs of all sizes, breeds and perspnalities, please don't hesitate to contact. I am working full time in emergency services, so my schedule is not regular. I use my spare time during the week and weekends to walk dogs, soemthing which I am passionate about and never get bored of! I am employed full time in emergency services. So my schedule is not a normal 9-5. I have days off during the week and sometimes weekend. Feel free to give me a message and I will inform you if I am available or not. I have a fenced medium sized garden. I have a house with plenty of space. There are also various green / forested areas nearby where we can walk.
About: I have spent my whole life around dogs and have in-depth experience in particular with terrier breeds, including their training and behavioural needs. I also have experience training pups both at home and at classes. I specifically have experience with: puppies, rescues, reactive, aged and muzzled dogs. I like to give dogs the best environment possible and cater to their needs, whether that be mental or physical stimulation, hugs and cuddles, their own individual space, training or companionship. Dogs are just as individual as us and no two dogs are the same. I am an outdoorsy person and live incredibly close to beautiful countryside so can provide some great walks. I am currently without a dog but this may change in the future when myself and my partner are ready to add to our little unit permanently. I also sometimes care for my family dog who is friendly and great with other dogs, should you ever want your dog to have a playmate. I have general availability on afternoons/evenings and weekends. I work full time but am also able to take occasional WFH days each week as and when, so I can build any walks or sitting needs/requests around this. I have: a fenced in garden with a 6ft gate (mix of grass and patio), currently a large sized dog crate, dog beds, blankets, toys, bowls, spare leads (including 10m long lead for recall training), spare collars, ball thrower and food. I also have a dog whistle should your dog be trained to one. My car has two doggy seatbelts and the back seats have a full cover over them. I will shortly also be looking to do a dog first aid training course.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, which has taught me to how to adapt to the different needs of each breed/species! I‘ve always helped my family and friends with dog walking and currently work as a receptionist at a vets, meaning I come into contact with a large range of breeds daily! I spend everyday with my own animals and from 29th May 2026 I’ll be around to help Monday-Sunday! I’m an early riser and have a friendly Cocker Spaniel of my own if you want your dog to interact with mine! I like to be told the needs and wants from owners and their furry friends to make sure the visit/walk is as helpful as it can be!
About: I love caring for cats and dogs. This includes puppies, older dogs with special dietary requirements, walking several dogs at once, and caring for some who have a tendency to try to chase small fluffy things…! When checking in on outdoor cats, I will come back at different times of day to try to find them home and spend a little time giving them attention, and to ensure they eat. I’ve cared for puppies in house training. You’ll see from one of my photos I’ve even made bespoke outfits for friends’ doggos! I work from home. I love to walk in all weathers and am able to schedule in as many walks as your dogs would enjoy. I’m generally home in the evenings so can fit around their meal times too. I check on all aspects of diet and daily care, especially with picky eaters or older pets who struggle with appetite. I am very conscientious around safety when walking, and if ever transporting an animal in my car. I have no issues with heavy lifting so if this is necessary to support an older dog into areas of the house they need to go, it’s not a problem. I like a tidy, calm, environment so your animals won’t feel unsettled while you’re away. You provide a room for me, but I bring my own food. I’m happy to take in parcels for you, put the bins out, etc.

Lucie is amazing with our cats. Extremely loving and really bonded with them. She looked after them during the recent heat wave and went above and beyond keeping them cool and keeping me updated on how they were doing. We feel lucky to have her look after the cats as it's such a weight off our mind whilst away that they are so well cared for.
Tashi very relaxed with Krystal. Due to extreme heat he couldn't be walked but had a nice time in garden shade with lovely company and was chilled when we returned home. Think he was better behaved that he is with me! Was great for us to relax and enjoy the wedding without worrying that Tashi was ok as Krystal updated us with photos.

We’ve booked Sophie a number of times and she is a fantastic catsitter! She is highly reliable, thoughtful and has great communication. We especially appreciate all the (sometimes quite amusing) photos and it always looks like the cats are having a lot of fun. We definitely recommend and will be booking again :) Thank you!

Very easy to arrange the visit. Charlotte arrived at the pre-arranged time for a drop-in visit for my dog, who seemed very happy to see her regular dog-sitter again! Very trustworthy in the house and followed instructions about midday treats and which rooms to let my dog settle in when she left. Highly recommend for drop-ins and overnight care, I have used Charlotte multiple times now and my dog adores her!
