“Nicola is the BEST cat sitter I could have hoped for. She’s great with my two boys (especially the nervous one), she keeps me updated and I trust her with my home and cats with no second thoughts x”

“Laura was absolutely lovely and really put us at ease. She took the time to ask lots of relevant questions about Arlo, his routine and his little quirks, and it was clear that she was genuinely interested in getting to know him and understanding what works best for him. She sent us an update while we were out and let us know that Arlo had been whining and waiting at the back door for us, which we think may be a little separation anxiety. Laura seemed very knowledgeable and experienced in how to handle this and was completely relaxed and reassuring about helping him settle. Arlo can have a few little quirks, particularly around resource guarding but Laura seemed to understand him really well and knew exactly how to approach things. We came away feeling very comfortable that he was in capable hands. We’d be very happy to have Laura look after Arlo again and would definitely recommend her.”


“We left our fabulous BSH )12 years old)with Kimberley doing drop ins for 8 days . I felt we had nothing to worry about on our initial meet and greet . However she really surpassed herself with great updates and photos each day . Cat litter changes and the fact we came back to a fresh litter change today made all the difference . Kimberley even put our bin out for us and returned it to the garden after it was emptied which really was above and beyond . She clearly cared so well for Daisy and we would have no hesitation in recommending her or asking her to come back if needed in the future.”


About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have cared for dogs and cats for many years. I grew up with my Labrador, who is now 14, and I helped train and care for her from a puppy through to her senior years. I regularly look after my uncle’s cat and friends’ cats, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and routines. I work in the finance industry and work from home regularly, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to give pets company, attention and care throughout the day. I’m patient, responsible and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I live alone in a flat with no pets of my own, so your pet would have my full attention. I’m particularly suited to cats and smaller, house-trained dogs, and I’m happy to follow individual feeding, walking, medication or routine requirements. I have a secure garden and live in a quiet residential area. As I live in a flat, I’m best suited to smaller, house-trained dogs who are comfortable going outside for regular walks and toilet breaks. I work in the finance industry and work from home regularly, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your cat attention throughout the day. I’m available for regular visits, feeding, playtime and companionship, and can work around your cat or dogs usual routine. I live in a clean, comfortable and secure flat with a private, enclosed garden, giving dogs a safe space to get some fresh air and play. I’m happy to take dogs out for walks and toilet breaks and can provide plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. For cats, I can provide a calm and secure environment with plenty of space, cuddles and playtime. I don’t currently have any other pets living with me, so your pet can have my full attention. I’ll always follow your instructions and keep their normal routine as much as possible.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats and other pets 10+ years. I worked at a doggy day care centre in 2023 for just under a year. This centre was ran by two sisters who were trained in animal care and behavioural management. I gained valuable experience and knowledge about difference breeds of dogs, conditions and behaviour whilst I was there. I am also in my final year of my veterinary bioscience degree. Throughout the course we have had many modules around animal care and management. We have also had practical, hands on experience with the care of cats, dogs, farm animals and small animals. I’m currently working part-time as a support worker for vulnerable adults with disabilities. I am 9am-4pm, Monday-Wednesday week 1. 9am-4pm, Monday-Tuesday week 2. I have availability to pop in for visits whenever as I can visit before or after work. Same goes for walks. Please don’t hesitate to send me a big long list of needs/requirements for your pet. Also quirks and normal behaviour for your pet too. Would much rather have too much information than not enough. When someone is caring for my cat I print out and email them a word doc. I will not judge you for this, infact it is encouraged 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 I have an SUV car which I can transport dogs in no bother. It’s leather seats so can just be wiped. I have dog seatbelts from looking after my friends dogs. I am happy to crate pets if instructed too. I am comfortable with most types of behaviour management

About: Not had my own dogs before but have looked after friends previously. Happy to do multiple big walks a day as required and even runs if they like that! I currently work doing workshops in schools which is mostly term time and during the day. Some days there isn’t any work in a school and just working from home one or two days a week I have a large grassy garden for a pet to run around in which is secure. My fiancé and I also regularly take walks in the week and larger walks on the weekend and do love to hike so if your pet enjoys big long walks we can happily get them bagging some munros!

About: I provide a highly attentive, personalised approach to every pet I care for. I have years of experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages, from young puppies and kittens requiring structure and consistency, to senior pets needing a more considered, gentle approach and support with specific health needs. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can provide a seamless experience in your absence. I’m highly reliable, respectful of your home, and attentive to detail—whether that’s maintaining routines, administering care, or noticing subtle changes in behaviour. I also provide regular, thoughtful updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is in capable and caring hands. I work remotely, so I’m home most of the day and able to give pets plenty of time and attention. I naturally incorporate pet care into my routine with regular walks, feeding and play throughout the day. I love having animals around while I work, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well looked after at all times. When pet sitting in your home, I understand that some pets feel unsettled when their owners are away so I focus on maintaining the pet’s usual routine to ensure they feel relaxed and at ease. I carefully follow all care instructions, from feeding and walks to play and any special needs. I spend quality time with each pet to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I also treat your home with the respect, keeping everything clean, secure, and just as you left it.
“Olivia followed instructions amazing and took care of our precious cat Willow. Olivia changed times to suit the cat and even thought to leave food out! when she wouldn’t return one day! (Totally normal for cats in summer) I would recommend Olivia in future and would definitely use her services again.”


About: I've owned dogs and a variety of pets all my life. I completed my Animal Care qualification and also worked in a vets, giving me the knowledge to handle most situations calmly and confidently. I have 2 dogs of my own and regularly pet sit for neighbours, family and friends. I'm caring, compassionate and reliable - your pet will be treated exactly like one of my own. I'm currently working part time in home care, so my hours vary week to week, but I have good flexibility during the day and can often fit in visits between shifts. I'm available for daily drop-ins, garden breaks, feeding visits and short walks for all dogs, including early mornings, afternoons and some weekends depending on my schedule that week. I visit pets in their own home so they stay in a familiar, comfortable environment with their normal routine. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, garden access and general care, and I'm happy to take dogs of any size out for a short walk on the lead. I always make sure I've got a secure hold and a good feel for a dog's walking style before we set off, so you can be confident your pet is safe with me.
“This is the second time Jenny has looked after our Bagel and I can't say enough great things. It's a massive relief to know our cat is in safe hands any time we would go away. Couldn't ask for more and even came home to a wonderful thank you gift! Thank you Jenny and I just hope you're available next time!”


About: I have had pets throughout my life and they are a huge part of my family. I live alone with a dog (5 years old) and cat (15 years old), so I know how important it is for them to be well looked after if you’re unable to. I often pet sit for family and friends and I’ve really enjoyed doing this over the years. I work four days a week and commit to helping Wednesday at any time and then I work flexibly and so can support other days as well. I have my own cat and dog so cannot stay at other people’s houses however I am happy to check in or take dogs out for a good walk. During weekends I am available all day and can support to ensure that your pets are well looked after if you’re unable to. I am a strong believer in treating my animals with love and affection whilst ensuring they are properly trained. They are my family and I know how important it is to know they are being well looked after if you’re unable to.
About: **DISCOUNT CODE - LUCYK10726** Currently I live with two mini dachshunds which belong to my flatmate, one is 4 years old and the other is 1 year old. I help feed, walk, and play with the dogs. I have also sat for my aunt's young dog Lottie, and my friend's two cats and their newborn kittens. I have also cared for a senior dog, Basil. At 15 years old he needed to be fed, walked, medicated, bathed, and was given plenty of cuddles and comfort. If you have smaller pets such as hamsters, fish, etc. I can drop in to feed them. I have a few years experience taking care of my own guinea pigs. I am available weekdays from 5pm onwards to walk dogs or pop in quickly to feed any pets. Friday nights may be more flexible, contact me to discuss pet sitting. On weekends, I'm available all day Saturday and Sunday for any pet sitting or dog walking needs! :) I am happy to learn about the safety rules put in place for each individual home and/or as is required for each and every pet.
About: My pet services with years of experience cover puppy training and senior care. With specialized care I believe every animal is unique and deserve tailored attention I am dog walker and stay at home mum. So I schedule my own time during the days and love spending my time with animals. Safety, trust and environment are my priorities. I have big house with large fenced garden plus extra accommodation in spacious shed that feels like home and big field right on our doorstep for pet adventures.
About: I’ve been a dedicated pet lover for as long as I can remember. Since the age of 11, I’ve had the joy of caring for my own dog, who is still happy and healthy today. Over the years, I’ve also helped friends and family by looking after their dogs while they were away, ensuring they were well-fed, exercised, and given plenty of love. Beyond just feeding and walking, I understand the importance of companionship, playtime, and routine in a pet’s life. Whether it’s a high-energy pup that needs long walks or a senior dog that requires gentle care, I adapt to their needs. With years of hands-on experience and a true passion for animals, I provide reliable and loving care. I work full-time during the week, excluding school holidays, but I’m completely free on weekends and available for pet care after school hours. This flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable and attentive care for your pets when you need it most. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend pet sitting, or occasional check-ins, I’m committed to ensuring your furry friends are happy, safe, and well-cared for. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine to ensure they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, and ensure they get plenty of exercise and playtime. For dogs, this includes regular walks and outdoor time, while for other pets, I cater to their specific needs, such as litter box maintenance or cage cleaning. I also offer companionship, giving pets the attention and affection they need while their owners are away. Whether it’s cuddles, play sessions, or simply being present, I aim to reduce any stress or anxiety they may feel. Additionally, I keep pet owners updated with messages, photos, or videos for peace of mind. Respecting the home is just as important, I ensure cleanliness, follow any specific house rules, and securely lock up when leaving. My goal is to provide loving, trustworthy care so both pets and owners feel at ease.
“Holly was super friendly and accommodating when I got in touch with a last minute booking request after struggling to find an available pet-sitter in my area. Holly was happy to look after my two rabbits and my flatmate's cat without issue, and shared photos while we were away. Highly recommended!”

About: Since I was little I’ve had a deep love for all animals. No matter the species or breed their presence makes me calm and fills me with joy. I’m a very caring individual with a deep love of nature. I have a beautiful cat who is 13 and I rescued Bertie two years ago. He is a German spitz mix. I trained Bertie myself and he comes on walks regularly with me. If your dog prefers a solo walk, that’s absolutely fine! From the tiniest pup to old English sheepdogs I’ve looked after them all. I am very understanding and like to get to know each animal I care for. All animals are different and have a routine that really helps with their anxiety, behaviour and well being. I take the time to understand their needs and make sure they are happy and content. To me, there is no greater joy than seeing an animal or child happy. Thank you for taking the time to Look at my page. I work from home however, I am looking to start a pet sitting/dog walking business in September 2026. I am available for toilet breaks Monday to Sunday and am happy to take a dog that is anxious to be left on its own into our home. I appreciate some dogs can get distressed when left and that is something I can assist with. If your dog is a male and has not been neutered, I’m afraid this would not be possible due to my male dog. I am available in the evenings for walking your friend and at the weekends I am available for day care, walks and home stays. All questions welcome. I find out firstly the owners needs and make sure I follow their guidance. This is very important to me as you are trusting me to support you in caring for your family member. During toilet break visits I always spend time with the cat or dog as I don’t like to leave them unless the owner wishes. This is just to bond with them and give them some company before leaving. When dogs are in my home or staying I make sure that the dogs routine is similar to their home comforts. My children are around dogs daily and adore them. They are gentle, caring and understand boundaries. I provide updates, pictures and video calls for anyone who would like to check in with their beloved pooch. My garden has seven foot high fencing which is secure. No puppers have escaped which is reassuring and allows me to let them explore the garden if they like being outside. Lastly and most importantly I will love your dog or cat like they are my own. Cuddles, snuggles, attention, walks, reassurance and the occasional sing song!
