House Sitting in North Kesteven

“Isla Rose is a beautiful young lady with so much compassion and empathy for dogs. Frank my Lakeland Terrier absolutely adored her and I would definitely, most definitely leave him in her care again. She is wonderful, a true lover of animals and it was there for all to see. Thank you Isla for looking after him ❤️”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life and have always cared deeply for them, ensuring that they are at their most comfortable. As I’ve gotten older I have been given both educational and professional experience working with all types of animals and learning about their care for the past 3 years. As I work part-time in cat and dog boarding at a kennels and cattery, I have had experience working with animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I am working part-time at the moment, primarily working in the late afternoon meaning that I am available for most days of the week. My availability will increase over the summer months due to the summer holiday break from college. As I have experience working with a variety of dogs and cats , I am easily adaptable and can follow any guidelines set by the pets owners, no matter how complex. As well as this, due to my experience with both older pets and younger ones, I can make sure to cater the care for each animal individually.

“Niamh was really lovely. She looked after our dogs very nicely and was a pleasure to have in our home. Thank you again Niamh.”

“We adopted Sargent, a Carpathian Shepherd dog, from Romania 3 weeks ago. He came with various health problems & he was subdued & shut down. Ryan looked after him over the weekend & quickly bonded with him & we came home to a happy dog Thanks to Ryan Sargent had started to show his true character, learned to trust & know that he was loved. We’re now confident that we can leave him with Ryan & that he will thrive in his company. Ryan is calm & patient & has a special way with dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him, particularly if you have a rescue dog that has lost his way. Ryan is an absolute gem & we’re so glad we found him!”

About: Had my own cat since I was 6 (currently 20), so looking after an animal has become 2nd nature to me. Been looking after my partners mums dog every once in a while for around a year now. Currently working part time, with a gap between my bachelors degree and my masters degree. I’m looking to pick up a little bit of extra cash on the side (and to go on some walks/look after some dogs as I can’t have pets at my accommodation) I keep a close eye on the pets, and if they are outside, I go outside with them to keep them company. I don’t drink, smoke or vape so I nor my house stinks, and I follow any instructions to the T.

“Veronica did a last minute house sit for our two dogs while we were on holiday. Our dogs can be quite hyper active and bounce off each other's energy a lot, which can be overwhelming for some people, but Veronica was amazing with them throughout the whole stay. She took them on lots of walks, gave them lots of fuss and play, and it's obvious they really enjoyed her company. We got videos and photos throughout the stay which eased my mind as we hadn't left them both together with anyone before, so we weren't sure how they'd behave or react. She made sure the house was super clean and tidy when we came back, which was great as we got back very late and it was one less thing to worry about doing! Overall an amazing experience and we'd be more than happy for her to look after our dogs again any time. ☺️”

“Sarah is fantastic. Amazing with our high maintenance and demanding dogs! We had daily updates which was so reassuring when away and we came home to an immaculate house. Thank you Sarah ☺️”

About: I have looked after neighbours pets and family friends’ dogs for well over five years now. I also have experience in tending to senior dogs and with administrating prescribed medications, but also being attentive and stimulating with puppies! I’m currently studying at University during term time in Coventry, but living at home in Lincolnshire during holidays. I’m up to looking after your lovely pets whenever I’m available!! I can easily crate your dog in your home (if you prefer this when they’re left alone inbetween any visits) and make sure that they are comfortable and stimulated throughout any visits.

“Jaye has done drop in visits and house sitting for us looking after our rescue Beagle, Beau. From the off she has been great. She came to do a meet and greet before drop ins and again before house sitting. She was so reassuring that Beau would be looked after as if he were her own pet and clearly understood the apprehension we had about leaving Beau for our first overseas holiday! She sent regular updates and photos but also didn’t want to disturb us on holiday so checked on how many updates we would like! She went above and beyond when house sitting, doing extra things like watering the plants and looked after our house very well. She genuinely loves spending time with Beau and takes such good care of him, playing with him and giving him lots of love and attention. Jaye is now a regular sitter for us and we look forward to having her look after Beau a lot more in the future!”

“Rick was fantastic with my girls. I've never known my Briard take to someone so quickly, she could be tricky on occasions. I think she was disappointed we didn't go away longer. I certainly would highly recommend, nothing was too much trouble. Many thanks Rick”

About: I am a local dog lover who treats every pup like my own. Clients are not just customers, they are part of the extended pack. I can be one consistent face your pet sees and gets to love. They know I am going to turn up and have a fantastic time walking and exercising them. I can offer customised walks based on each dog’s energy level, temperament and needs. As I am a small business I am responsive and flexible and give you updates on every walk. Owning a border collie myself I know what fulfilment means for dogs. If you are looking for a dog walker/someone to check in on your dog let me know and we can get something arranged I am currently a teacher so during term time I can only offer services on a weekend, however, from the 21st July I can offer services 7 days a week. As a certified pet first aid provides, you dog’s well being is my top priority on every walk. Trust, consistency and clear communication are the foundation of my service, because you deserve peace of mind and your dog deserves love and respect.

About: I have 2 years or part time in dog services. No professional qualifications. I just know how hard it is to find reliable dog boardings. I am currently working part time therefore I am home most of the time. I live out in the country side. I own a beagle so I am used to going on plenty long walks! I believe a tired dog is a happy dog! I pride myself in how my dog appears and behaves and therefore I will pride myself in how your dog is also looked after. They will have a companion (my beagle) to help them settle in, as I know how scary it could be to be left in a new place without their human parents. I will listen to all rules and instructions given by you in order for your fur baby to have the best service given by me. I send daily and regular updates (videos/photographs and written) . I live in a village. I have a large fenced garden. However the dogs are never left alone without supervision. The house is tidy so no dogs eat what they shouldn't. You are more than welcome to come for a visit before booking with me.

“Kerry was so friendly, Franki loved her and I felt at ease leaving Franki with her. She asked questions about Franki to make the week easy for Franki to adjust to I would highly recommend kerry”

“Tasmin and her partner took wonderful care of our 8yr old Samoyed, Humphrey. They provided regular updates and photos on how he was doing allow us to enjoy our holiday. Humphrey was very content when we got home proving he had been provided lots of love while we were away.”

About: I have owned and trained dogs since I was 10 years old. When my dear cocker spaniel Sweep passed away in 2018 I couldn't face replacing him and decided to fill the gap left in my life by borrowing dogs from friends and neighbours. I have had 3 extended families of dogs as long-term fur buddies (four Pugs, five English Cockers, a Cockerpoo, and a Labrador); I have walked and provide holiday sitting for these doggies. In 2021 I adopted a retired English Cocker from stud (Paulo) and he was the most laidback chap; he went with me everywhere and was an extra companion for my doggie friends. Sadly Paulo passed away in February 2025 so I have more time for dog sitting and walking. I retired 18 months ago and decided to care for dogs to keep me fit and happy so my time is my own. I prefer to walk my doggies at lunchtime and only walk one dog (or a family group of dogs) a day for a minimum of 1 hour; I never rush my dogs and I don't clock-watch. I always have a good supply of dry clean towels to towel-off wet and muddy dogs. I also really enjoy dog sitting dogs but I believe they need time to get to know and trust me. So If you'd like me to be your dog sitter then your furry friend will need to come for walkies with me before-hand; this is kinder for the dog and it's what I would want for my dog. I only do walkies on the lead. I walk up to 4 dogs but only from the same home pack so that there are no fights. If you would like me to sit your dog/s I will always follow your dog's routine and I'm happy to sleep with dogs that need human company. I have a dog and a cat at home although the cat stays away from dog visitors. I have a fully fenced secure back garden, and a heated garden room which is my den and home to my dog visitors. I only have dog visitors that know me and Paulo well so long-term walkers and sitters only please.

About: I had a dog and cats as a child and looked after lots of friends and families pets ever since. From taking them to walks to having them stay over for a week or 2. When looking after dogs previously, it makes me so happy to see them get excited to see me again! I have 2 sons, 15 and 7, who also live with me. They have been taught how to be safe around animals ever since they were little and are very caring and attentive around them. They both love cats and dogs and are keen to get one full time. They have also enjoyed dog walks with me aswell as spending with family and friends pets. I think this would be a good way to give them some extra experience in caring for animals. I currently work part-time so have plenty of time to play and care for your lovely pets! I work 9-5 on a Wednesday, 8-4 on a Thursday and 9-3 on Fridays. All other days I'm generally free apart from popping out to do the usual chores or to go to the gym. I would be happy to look after your pet whilst I'm at work if they are OK and happy to be left for that amount of time. I will make enrichment toys to keep them occupied whilst im out of the house. Apart from a Wednesday, Thursday and friday I am available to also do drop ins and dog walks. I have a high fenced garden for your pups to enjoy. I also have a large field at the top of my street that is great for a dog walk. I do drive so if your dog is happy travelling, I would take them out on longer walks if needed. Your pets will be free to roam all areas of the house and I am happy for them to sit on the sofa with us for cuddles or sleep in my bed if that's what they are used to. It will be my main priority to make them feel safe and happy whilst they are with me. Please feel free to discuss any care your dog may need and I will do all I can to accommodate. If you require me to look after your pet in your home, I am only available on a friday evening as I have my children with me all other nights of the week.

About: For the past 6 years I have helped my parents look after our pug, lily. I regularly take her for walks and will provide her breakfast and evening meals. Through working with rover, I have helped care for over 30 different dogs, from the tiniest Pomeranians to the biggest St. Bernards!! Sometimes caring for up to 6 dogs at a time, I ensure that all dogs are well looked after and get all the fuss and cuddles they need! I am currently living at home as I have just finished university so have plenty of spare time and am available for work at all times, any day of the week. I live in a house with my parents, niece and little pug, which means that there will always be someone around to care for your pet, and always a friend for your pet to play with! We have a medium sized garden which the dogs can run around in, as well as a very large field just behind our house which we use for taking the dogs on walks!

“Orissa house-sat our older Welsh Springer Spaniel for two nights. We were impressed right from the start. At the meet-and-greet it was obvious that Orissa was extremely organised, asking lots of questions and taking lots of notes. What was equally reassuring was her calm confidence when dealing with Brodie. Brodie became lame shortly before the booking and we had to adjust his daily routine to restricted exercise and provide regular medication. Orissa took the late changes in her stride and made sure that he didn't overdo his physical activities yet was mentally stimulated enough to not become restless overnight (something we don't always manage ourselves). Brodie clearly loved having Orissa around - he looked very happy in every one of the many photos she sent and the first evening we were back spent time looking for her to join us on his evening walk. And on top of keeping Brodie happy, when we returned home the house was spotless!”

About: I’ve been brought up around pets my whole life - some good & sociable, and some timid and tetchy, so I am good at clocking when an animal needs its space, and when it needs some TLC! I’ve grown up with Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Fish, Cats and Dogs. I tend to prefer animals to humans to be honest, so this is a perfect role for me! I work from home to ensure I can care for my dogs Mabel & Barry. We originally had two female dogs, but our eldest, Blue, recently passed away, so Mabel has needed a lot more company, which I’ve adjusted my work-life balance to fit around. She’s an old gal, so a challenge to get out the door. We then adopted Barry, our mental Boston, who can’t go without 2 walks a day, so we try and get her out with him. I’d love to walk/hang with some more fluffs! Ensure they’re obviously stocked up on water and any treats they might want/need. Ensure I’m either sat with them the whole time, or if they’re a fidget bum, that I’ve at least got my eye on them. I’m very cuddly, and so will offer infinite snuggles for your pet, but also love a pet that, like me, treasures personal space haha!

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to lovable Golden Retrievers—I’ve developed a deep understanding of each dog’s unique personality and needs. My journey started when my brother brought home a puppy, and caring for him quickly became second nature. Since then, I’ve become the go-to sitter for friends, family, and local pet owners who value my reliability, frequent updates, and genuine love for dogs. What sets me apart is that I’m home full-time during the week, giving your dog plenty of attention, long walks, and companionship throughout the day. I treat every dog like family and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Being home all day every day means pet care naturally fits into my routine. I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention, regular walks, and a calm, consistent environment throughout the day. Whether it’s sticking to a specific feeding schedule, providing company and playtime, or just being a reassuring presence, I’m here for it. My flexible schedule also means I can often help out at short notice—perfect for last-minute plans or unexpected changes. Your dog will never feel like they’re waiting for company—I’m here, ready, and happy to welcome them in. Safety and trust are at the heart of how I care for every pet. Whether I’m welcoming your dog into my home or looking after them in yours, I treat them with the same level of attention and care I’d give my own. In my home, I create a calm, dog-friendly space where pets can feel secure and relaxed, with plenty of love, structure, and supervised time outdoors. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and routines, making sure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment. I keep things clean, follow instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is to make your time away stress-free—for both you and your pet.
