About: We have both had cats and dogs our whole lives and since moving out of our family homes, we've noticed a distinct gap left by our furry companions. Due to work commitments we are not in a position to have our own full time pet, but look forward to the opportunity to look after yours for you! Between us we have had our fair share of experiences with hard to handle hounds, including tough walks, entertaining and administering medication. So feel relaxed knowing they are in safe hands! Currently I manage my own business from home so can be made available at any time for pick up, drop offs or walks! More than happy to sit throughout the week or on weekends. We live in a spacious ground floor flat in Jesmond with a back garden and Jesmond dene 5/10 mins walk away. I am on a flexible schedule ableing me to walk, sit or check in on pets when needed.

Jill M.
“Jill looks after our dog nearly everyday! He is always the happiest to go with her, and seems to always have the most fun time. He goes on lovely walks, eats like a king! And gets nothing but fusses, play and love. Jill also sometimes looks after our guinea pigs who find comfort in her company. She always knows what foods they can/ can’t eat. I couldn’t think of anyone I would trust more than Jill to care for my animals. I know they’re always happy, loved and cared for when with her. Thank you Jill xx”


Becky H.
“We started using Becky to walk our two dogs as we felt that it was better than a group walk with other dogs. Living where we do, it's an added bonus that she picks them up from ours and walks them from the house, rather than sat in a van. We get pics every time and it always looks like the dogs are having a great time.”
