“So pleased I chose Emma to look after my 3 cats while I was away. She was more than happy to come spend some time getting to know them prior to our booking and I've never known my shy ex-feral cats warm to anyone so quickly. Emma is friendly and professional and followed the cats routines perfectly. The notes and photos after every visit provided great peace of mind knowing how each of the cats was getting on. If I go away again I'll definitely be seeing if Emma's available as I couldn't be happier with the service she provided.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Outstanding Cat Sitting Experience with Dan! We recently had the pleasure of leaving our two cats in Dan’s care while we went on holiday for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, Dan was nothing short of fantastic. Our cats were clearly very comfortable and happy in his home, and he kept us updated every single day with photos and updates, which was incredibly reassuring. One of our cats has a specific medicine routine, and Dan made sure it was followed perfectly. It was such a relief to know they were in such capable hands. Honestly, it felt like a holiday for us and a little holiday for our cats too! We’re truly grateful for the high level of love and care Dan provided. If you’re looking for a cat sitter who treats your pets like their own, look no further. Highly, highly recommended!”

“Couldn't recommend enough! Really helped out when I needed it most and was super unstanding when my plans altered. Shaney is well looked after and loves his visits. Amazing sitter!”

“Ana Luisa looked after my cat Rexie for a couple of weeks whilst I was away and she was perfect! She had an amazing connection with Rexie from the very start and was extremely friendly and caring! I absolutely recommend and will definitely be in touch again next time I go away!!”

About: Hi my name is Jess! I have life long experience with my own pets and looking after other peoples. Including rabbits, puppies, dogs, kittens, cats and birthing animals. I work from home so have plenty of time, I enjoy frequent walks and nature outings and love having a bit of animal company whilst doing so. Communication is key when looking after animals so I like to have explicit instructions and follow these to maintain routine. I don't mind animals on my furniture or my bed and I have a big fenced off garden.
“This was the first time we have left Titch. Julie is the perfect person to rely on. She did everything right and More! I think they both enjoyed each other's company.🥰”

“Liv, thank you so much for taking such good care of Hilma! Any pet or pet owner would be very lucky to have Liv as a pet sitter. She made detailed notes of her visits, and sent cute pictures cuddling with my cat. She’s clearly a real animal lover, and even brought toys to entertain my kitten. Liv went over and beyond and was reliable, prompt and friendly. I’d recommend 100 % Thanks again Liv and I’m sure that Hilma would love to see you again :)”

“Ellie was great - she really helped us out very last minute when we had other care for our dog fall through. She kept us up to date when she was about to arrive and sent us photos of her check ins and walks, as well as always responding to messages really promptly! Our dog seemed very happy when we got back and we would definitely recommend and use again in the future ☺️”

About: I grew up in a home full of pets and I have many happy memories of our boxer dogs, cats, tortoises, guineapigs. In my twenties when I had my first house I’ve owned cats and know only too well how precious their time is with us. Whilst I don’t have a dog of my own I regularly look after my two daughters schnauzer and crossbred pug shitzu. I love long walks with lots of sniffs. I retired early at 57 and work 12 hrs a week in a nursing home looking after residents with complex medical needs. I’m really flexible on hours and have a car which I’m happy to use to transport In my own home I have a secure fenced off garden with decking for catching any warm sunshine and planting for lots of sniffs. I own a tortoise but I always make sure he’s safely away in his heated house before the dogs go in the garden.
About: We have had dogs for the last 10 years and treat them like part of the family. Yours will be loved and safe with us. My wife Tarn has also previously had dogs before Teddy and will be part of the team taking care of any visitors. My son Kayden is usually on hand too so we are very much a team! I am a professional and work from home, but I am currently between jobs, and so have lots of time to spend with your dog. My wife and son will also support to make sure your dog is always taken care of. Our yard is completely fenced in and safe, we have two of our own dogs and two cats. We will absolutely treat your dog like they are part of our family too.
About: After losing my beloved Alex, my cherished companion of many years, to old age, I’ve come to understand the profound bond between pets and their owners. Alex brought so much joy, comfort, and unconditional love into my life, and his passing left a space that only the presence of a furry friend can fill. This experience has inspired me to open my heart and home to other pets, offering them the same care, attention, and affection that I gave to Alex. I know firsthand the importance of patience, routine, and understanding when it comes to caring for pets, especially those who may be older or need extra support. Whether it’s a gentle walk, a cosy cuddle, or simply being there to provide companionship, I’m committed to ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and valued. Let me help care for your pet with the same dedication and warmth that I gave to my dear Alex. As a part-time teacher, pet sitting complements my flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate mornings, evenings, and weekends to walks, feeding, and cuddles, ensuring pets feel loved and secure. I have a big fenced garden as well as a garden room, my dog Alex was allowed to use the house as our humans do and I will treat any pet the same way.
About: Hello! I’m Abbey, I am 31 years old originally from Newcastle. I’ve taken care of and had dogs my whole life. I have a little cavapoo who I adore and I get to visit regularly. I love the companionship of dogs and I previously worked in a veterinary hospital, which remains my favourite job. I am extremely flexible and I’d love to look after your dog and give them all the love and affection! I work four days per week, however my job is extremely flexible and I work from home. So I can fully cater to a dogs needs and work them into my schedule. Finding time to dog walk is not a problem for me, I love being outside and it would be great company! I have a 3 bedroom home with an enclosed garden at the back, and sadly have no pets. I also have no children. I live 5 minutes walk from various dog friendly parks and a 5 minute drive to the beach in Tynemouth.
About: I’ve always been around animals and genuinely enjoy spending time caring for them. I have two cats of my own, so I’m very used to day-to-day pet care, from feeding and litter trays to playtime and keeping an eye on their routines and wellbeing. I’ve also looked after friends’ dogs - often for week-long stays - where I took care of walks, feeding, play, and giving them plenty of attention while their owners were away. I regularly help care for my aunt’s cockapoo, so I’m comfortable with energetic, affectionate dogs as well as those who prefer a calmer approach. My experience also goes beyond typical household pets, having volunteered at Sunderland Training and Education Farm, where I cared for a range of animals including farm animals and reptiles. This taught me how important it is to follow individual care routines and be patient and gentle with animals that have very different needs. Overall, I take a calm, thoughtful approach to pet care and aim to make animals feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible weekly schedule, particularly outside the summer months, which allows me to give pets plenty of time and attention. I’m able to fit in regular visits, longer walks, or overnight stays and can adjust my routine to suit your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and stick to the pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, play, and rest. I treat each home with care and respect, making sure doors, gates, and windows are secure and that pets are safe at all times. I’m careful with household rules, whether that’s keeping pets off furniture, managing feeding boundaries, or maintaining quiet routines. I pay close attention to pets’ behaviour and wellbeing and will always let owners know if anything seems out of the ordinary. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos for reassurance, and I make sure pets get plenty of attention, comfort, and calm company while you’re away. My priority is always for pets to feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment.
“John has a genuine love and care for animals he took our petal out for lots of fun and interesting walks with other dogs which was great to see the photos from! We know she was well cared for and had lots of fun! Thank you again John!”

Amela is very reliable and gives great updates on my cat when I am away. Also has lots of common sense, when something didn't work the way she expected it to she immediately contacted me. I have no reservations to recommend her on her reliability and common sense attitude.

Ellen has been absolutely superb with little Pitta. We were away for a week and it was our first time leaving him home & she reassured us so much via msgs and picture updates. My little cat never really shows interest in any company other than ours but he’s been so relaxed and comfortable around Ellen, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. No need to look any further, Ellen is the right person to take care of your cat & we will 100% be booking again when needed. :)

Once again the service from Emma was great. She was perfectly happy to come spend a while getting reacquainted with the cats before we went away as it had been a long time since she last sat for us. She's friendly and professional, follows all instructions and respects all boundaries set. She provides great updates for each visit with plenty of photos so we can see they're all doing OK, and she's great with the cats, allowing them to lead and show what they're comfortable with rather than trying to force anything. 100% recommend.
