First time that Maya has looked after Zeus and she ensured that he had the best time, gave him all of the attention that he demands 🤣 Maya came to see Zeus at short notice but did not hesitate to commit to looking after him… she sent me plenty of updates and really put my mind at ease. Will definitely have Maya look after Zeus in future.

Absolutely amazing service! From the first visit I knew Alannah was the perfect person to look after my dog. I was a bit apprehensive as he is very nervous and has never been left with somebody he doesn’t know really well, but settled perfectly and loved the regular updates and photographs I received throughout my holiday. She is so patient and followed his routine. Also kept my house lovely and tidy too It was very obvious she is an animal lover and genuinely cares for the animals she looks after I could not recommend enough and have booked again for my next holiday ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Olivia recently stayed at our home and looked after our very energetic needy Labrador Oreo. We instantly felt at ease leaving Oreo with Olivia, she has great knowledge in looking after dogs and Oreo fell in love with her straight away, we will definitely use Olivia again in the future! Thanks again Olivia

Elsa sent updates throughout her stay and nothing was too much trouble for her. Dogs seemed very calm and happy on our return, so obviously were not stressed by her presence. A perfect guest in our home and we'll certainly ask her again. 😊🙏🏻

About: I’ve looked after my own, friends and neighbours dogs from a young age and they have relied on me for dog walking duties, overnight stays and drop in visits. My family had 4 spaniels when I was younger so I’m very used to looking after dogs with lots of energy and ensuring they receive the correct amount of exercise. My family fostered dogs when I was younger so I have a range of experience looking after lots of different breeds. I don’t currently have any pets and I miss the company that a dog brings. I’m very friendly, caring and loyal individual who throughly enjoys the company of four legged friends. I enjoy taking dogs out on walks long or short and I am happy to have them on or off the lead whichever you prefer. I live in a great area for dog walks and I always provide pictures, videos and updates of your pet throughout their stay. I only care for pets from the same household during any one booking to ensure they receive my full care and attention. I can work from home when needed so I am flexible on those days. Im an early riser and I enjoy a early walk with your dog before I start work. Im available most weekends for boarding. I have a gated front yard and a fully fenced back garden. CCTV camera in my home for security. I also live in a great area for dog walking with a lot of land that is away from traffic.

About: Hello! I'm Oscar, I'm 36 years old, and I love animals! That's why I'm here! I am also a volunteer carer at the Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter, so I am more than comfortable around any pet and will be able to attend to your pets' needs. My cats, Nala and Marie, are everything to me. They're both rescued cats from the streets. They're house cats but they do enjoy some outdoor time, we love to take them out on leads to have a little walk on the porch or back garden. I know what I'd want from someone looking after my girls, and always try to do the best for others peoples' pets!

About: I started volunteering at a Guinea Pig rescue when I was 16. I have since studied Veterinary Nursing and Animal Psychology with the dream goal of working for the RSPCA. Although this hasn't happened, I am passionate about animals and animal welfare. I have been dog/pet sitting and boarding for 17 years and some of my clients have been with me since the beginning. I have experience with all shapes and sizes, breeds and temperaments. I have recently left my full-time job to take some time to reflect on what I want to do next. So, I'm free all day/night to interact with your fur baby. I live in an upstairs flat, with a veranda, that I have a retractable dog gate on - so they can be outside enjoying the sunshine but can't escape. I live a 3 minute walk from the Royal Quays Marina and Coble Dene park which is a beautiful walk. I also drive so I frequently visit Holywell Dene, Jesmond Dene etc. If pet care is more complicated than just walking/feeding/playing, I always appreciate instructions. I have boarded in other people's houses many times and I always follow instruction and rules.

Anna was incredible - she came to meet my dog before she sat for her, and treated her like her own. My dog felt so comfy around her. I would definitely recommend and will turn to Anna for dog sitting in the future!

We had two brilliant experiences with Roxanne. She looked after my dog for the day and then on another occasion she looked after her for 3 nights while we were on holiday. Both times I felt very reassured by Roxanne. I can be quite nervous leaving Delilah to be looked after by others but Roxanne kept me updated with plenty of lovely messages and photos. When we met for a meet and greet it was clear how much Roxanne loves animals and what a good relationship she has with them. After the initial meet and greet I was much happier leaving Delilah with her. I would definitely recommend Roxanne to anyone and also will ask her to look after Delilah in the future. My house was left immaculate too.

Georgia was really lovely when sitting with our Dog Brian, he instantly took a liking to her which was really unusual. She messaged whilst we were out and the communication was great, we felt really confident and at ease with her approach and we would most definitely use her again and recommend to others

About: I’ve been a dog-carer for 8 years and have good knowledge and confidence for our canine babies! I was brought up with dogs and other pets too; I’m all round an animal lover and seem to have created my adult life around this! I originally trained in behaviour therapy and counselling at university 10 years ago and now moved on to nursing, which I will qualify in this summer. I love animals and look after them as much as I can in my spare time. At home I have an elderly cat and 4 chickens. I share a collie dog part time also. I currently work part time and choose my own hours. My daughter is in school. My family and I look after dogs regularly and we have our own too. I’m a very active and healthy person, knowledgable of walks to suit any dog in the area and my home is very spacious with a fenced yard. I am a regular attender to dog festivals, training seminars and canine health. I am passionate for our canine babies and look forward to providing the best care so you can get the time you need! I have a very friendly collie who is in perfect t health and is neutered. My back yard is fenced and home is spacious. We take daily walks in open spaces for dogs to explore and play. At home we play stimuli games and I have dog puzzles too. I have a daughter who is in school but loves dogs too and already has a great understanding. She has been around dogs her entire life as I dog sit, board and walk dogs for friends and family. The health and happiness of the dog is priority and I make sure they’re kept to the best standards.

Jessica was absolutely amazing for our little Buddy. She was extremely caring and handled him with such love! She sent constant updates which was massively appreciated!! I will be booking her again as Buddy loves her and that is clear from when he saw her again and his tail was wagging away.

About: I born in a farm, with all sorts of animals. I always wanted a dog and for 6 years I got the best friend I could ask for, until he died of epilepsy. I know how tricky it is sometimes to balance work, studies, trips, etc. I had to use these services before, so now that I have plenty of time I thought I could be of some help for others. I work nearby and me and my housemate arrange everything so your precious will not feel lonely. I can do early walks and long walks in the evenings I love pet cuddles and I'll follow their routines and preferences and needs. I can also help with their training or teach them games and rules.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life, and have a genuine love for them all. I started officially walking my aunties dog a year ago when he was rescued and have since pursued this as a career, working with all ages, sizes and temperaments! I love helping rehomed dogs settle into their new homes and hope I can help as many dogs as possible start their new lives🐾 Pet care is my full time job, I mostly walk dogs however I am looking to gain some of my own clients, and branch into pet sitting as well. Your home is your pets home, so respecting their/your space is essential to building a connection with both owner and pet. Water is always kept full, play is had without hesitation and keeping a space safe for your dog is essential to keeping them happy

About: For the past five years, I have been dog sitting back home in Australia through the website Mad Paws. Many of the pets I cared for became regular visitors, to the point that my home felt like their second home! I have a genuine love for animals and truly enjoy spending time with them, including teaching dogs new tricks and keeping them active and happy. From tiny Pomeranians to 30kg Staffies, I’m experienced caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently freelancing, which gives me an extremely flexible schedule. I’m always available on weekends and can offer lunchtime walks during the week if your pooch needs some company while you’re at work. I’m very adaptable and happy to work around your routine to make things as easy as possible for you. When caring for pets in your home, I always prioritise keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely from feeding schedules and walk times to medication and favourite sleeping spots. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy.

About: I’ve owned dogs for 10+ years and worked with them for 4+. Insured/DBS checked. Experienced with many different breeds and age, and knowledgeable on dog behaviour and training. I am a full time dog walker, and pet sitter. I mostly have regular weekly clients for solo or group walks! When I pet sit at a dog's home, your dog is taken care of as my own, and I follow your dog's usual routine as best I can, while working around my daily walks! I have a lot of flexibility to pop back and forth for toilet trips, and their walks will be fit into my schedule. My days tend to finish no later than 3pm, so I will be able to spend the rest of the afternoon/ evening with your dog, giving them attention and cuddles/ play. I have a fenced back garden with no side gate for exit, fully secure. It is a large Astro turfed space with plenty of room for dogs to roam, lounge and play. Dogs will be able to freely roam where they like inside or out of the home. I will follow the dogs owners instruction on feeding/walking and any other special requests. The same applies to pet sitting in the owners home.

About: I have grown up around family pets and love spending time around animals. I have always grown up with dogs so have regular practice with walking, feeding, playing and looking after dogs. My family dog is a sprocker spaniel, so I am used taking care of high energy animals and keeping them entertained. Since moving to the North East, I miss the daily comfort of looking after my dog and I would really love to give that energy to local pets. I have also previously looked after my neighbours cats and also house sat for families with dogs and cats multiple times and feel very confident looking after both dogs and cats. Alongside this, I volunteered at dogs trust for a year, helping with caring for the dogs and gaining knowledge in dog behaviour. Overall, I take a calm and thoughtful approach to allow the dogs to feel as calm and comfortable while you are away. I have a flexible weekly schedule and I predominately work from home. I am able to fit in regular visits, longer walks, or overnight stays and can adjust my routine to suit your pets needs. I have a flexible weekly schedule and I predominately work from home/via a laptop so I can work anywhere. When I have to go into work (which I know in advance) it is only 6 hours at a time. I am able to fit in regular visits, longer walks, or overnight stays and can adjust my routine to suit your pets needs. I have a fenced back yard and I am very close to both grassy areas and the beach. I don’t have any pets of my own living with me. I can provide if needed: water/ food bowl, lead, and treats!

This was the first time using a pet sitter and Maya was so helpful to make it smooth and stress-free for the humans and animals! Maya kept us posted with photos and videos and it was obvious that the animals were very comfortable with her. We can absolutely recommend Maya for pet house sitting.

Oh my goodness! I don’t think there are enough words to describe how amazing Alannah is!! We found ourselves in a pet parents worst nightmare! We flew out of the country for a holiday, and 6 hours after our pet sitters were meant to have already been at our house, they informed us they couldn’t do the sit. Complete panic sent in and we didn’t know what to do. We panicked and started messaging friends and family as by this point our pets had been left nearly 15 hours. We messaged Alannah and she replied within minutes and within an hour she had arranged absolutely everything for her to be able to come and sit for us. The whole process of speaking with her and booking her in to start her sit the next day was so easy. We had never used CIAF before so she helped with absolutely everything. We will 100% be happy to invite Alannah to sit for us again. The peace of mind she brings and the updates she sends made us feel very much at ease about the situation. Our Babies were very well taken care of and we came home to 4 very content animals, so much so I don’t think the cats even realised we went away 😅🤣 Thank you so much for being so wonderful, we appreciate absolutely everything you did to help us. You literally saved our holiday and rescued us from an awful situation. 100% recommend! If you’re lucky enough to get this wonderful lady to sit for you then take the opportunity! ❤️❤️

Corrie was an absolute hero - we had an emergency a needed last minute cover. Corrie was super quick to respond, very friendly, polite, accommodating and willing to help at short notice. Corrie was conscious to ensure she understood Thea’s routine and how best to care for her which was very reassuring and put me at ease. I would absolutely recommend Corrie to others and we will certainly use her services in the future ourselves.
