We were reassured that Bertie had his medication on time. Cannot recommend Pete highly enough and we will definitely use him again in the future.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since being tiny always having a family dogs. I’ve had a range of breeds and currently have my own puppy Labrador and my family have 4 dachshunds which I lived with and looked after before I moved into my own home. I currently work full time as a A&E nurse. I work 13 hour shifts and usually have 4 days off a week I can come and visit your dog. I get my rota 2 months in advance so can give plenty of notice on my free days. I live in a fully fenced off garden which I let my puppy play in. I will never take your dog off the lead unless instructed to.
“First time we had left Peppa and it was amazing. Peppa allowed to sleep on the bed like she does with me at home. Very accommodating, professional service. Excellent, definitely recommend.”
“This was our first time leaving Nara with James, I was more than happy with the care they gave her whilst being there. I was sent photos of her throughout the day, she had made herself very comfortable in their home. I have already made 2 more bookings with him and would gladly recommend him.”
About: Dog owner from childhood that has extended into adulthood. Currently have a 11yr old Staffy x Lab which I have had since she was 8 weeks old. Passionate about animals, also a horse owner and I love the outdoors and long walks. Pet care fits into my daily life well. I live a 5 minute walk from Morecambe promenade. Plenty of walking available in the surrounding villages and towns. I am a nurse who is lucky enough to have a flexible rotation. So have plenty of opportunities to work both as a nurse and a dog sitter. Pets that come to stay follow the same routine as they would in their normal environment. Home from home experience. Bring with you all that your dog requires to keep them as settled and as comfortable as possible.
“Matt and Zoe were wonderful with Jolene! They walked her miles, showered her with treats, and really made a giant fuss of her. They were friendly and proactive in communication with us, and sent us loads of photos of our sweet girl.”
“Angus loved his time with Barbara, he gots lots of exciting walks and settled in well with her. She is very friendly ,we got updates and photos of what they had been up ,hes going back for another little break with her soon”

“Thanks again to Lidia and Malcolm for giving Bella such a beautiful stay. She was so happy and calm when I collected her today and she’s obviously been given lots of lovely attention and made to feel very at home. Lidia was very in touch throughout Bella’s stay and was incredibly understanding when a cancelled flight meant we had to pick Bella up late. We recommend this dog sitting team, and hope to be back!”
“I am always a little concerned leaving Lola with anyone. As she didn't have a good start in life. I had a very good feeling on our first meeting with Ian and Tracy. I immediately felt at ease as they clearly experienced and comfortable with dogs. They have two dogs of their own and Lola was happy to be with them. I always feel a little nervous and guilty when we go away. So to have someone like Ian and Tracy who reassures you, that she will be well looked after, gives you peace of mind. Excellent communication received, with regular updates and photos, this all helped us. Lola had lots of walks and play time, she was very happy and relaxed when we picked her up. ` I will definitely be using Ian and Tracy again. I highly recommend them for dog boarding. Thank you again.”
“We left Angus our 6 month old puppy for the first time with Chelsea, we were worried about leaving him with only being a puppy but we were reasured with photos and meeting previous to stay, it was a home from home for him he was chilled out and well looked after, will definitely book again”
“We are very happy with the care Dobby received. She was very calm and happy when we picked her up, and it was clear that she had a lovely time. Thank you so much for looking after her and making her feel comfortable in your home. We really appreciate your kindness and would definitely recommend you to other dog owners. 😊”
About: We have had a dog in our family for the last 15 years....minus a few years after we lost our beloved Collie cross Sam. We are used to have small and large dogs in the family and both our boys love dogs. We live a 10 minute walk from the beach and round the corner from large fields for ball chasing. We would love to welcome your dog into our home and we have a very large fenced garden for them to play in too. I work full time but 3 days from home. We do have our own dog that I take care of too so your pet will have a friend. Walks are at 7am...on the school run...lunchtime and evening before bed so your pet will have plenty of exercise. I have a large fenced garden with a lot of space for exercise and can also crate your pet if needed for comfort. They will get a lot of love and attention.
“Highly recommend this lovely couple. Left our 7 month old for his first overnight and he was so well looked after - lots of lovely walks, attention and care, and Lisa brushed him. Also, Lisa sent lots of photo updates.”
“Jo was fantastic! She took great care of Teddy and kept us updated the whole time. Teddy came home happy and relaxed, although I think he wanted to stay a little longer. Highly recommend Jo for anyone needing a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
“Danielle and her partner Dan were fantastic from the very first message. They gave Winnie a proper home from home stay, she loved every second of it and was honestly so lovely to see how much they loved Winnie. Amazing sitters and pup carers! 10/10 from us and would highly recommend. Winnie will be visiting again in no time I’m absolutely sure of it 🩶”
About: I’ve had dogs since being a young girl. A recent bereavement of my old boy has left me with lots of time and love on my hands to offer your fur babies. From being a puppy my daughter and I attended, puppy training classes for socialisation and then agility training as he got older. As he slowed down during his golden years, as a family you have to adapt to their needs as they slow down 😔 do have experience from puppies to senior years. I’m currently not working, so apart from appointments that I have to attend, I am at home all of the time. My weekends are usually free too. My house is very calm, quiet and relaxed for your dog to come in and out as they please with a patio area and safe fenced area. I can provide toys for fun and enrichment and a warm home from home space for rest. I have a fenced garden that is secure. I also have a grassy area opposite the house for good sniffs if you require me to take your dog out to stretch their legs.

Thank you for looking after our little girl and we will see you next week.”

About: I’m a passionate dog lover with 2 years of hands-on pet care experience! My friend is a veterinarian who has taught me many useful tips for keeping pets healthy and happy. I know basic training, leash walking, and good outdoor habits. I’ve cared for three wonderful dogs: a 6-year-old Shepherd who visits me every two months for a week, a sweet Teddy who stayed with me for two weeks, and a playful 2-month-old puppy who I’ve showered with love and patience. Every dog I meet becomes my friend—I care for them as if they were my own! I currently have a very flexible schedule since I’m not working full-time, which means I have plenty of time and energy to devote to caring for your pets. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll be there whenever your furry friend needs me. Your pet’s safety and happiness come first. I carefully follow all instructions from pet parents and provide personalized care based on your pet’s unique needs. Whether in my home or yours, I create a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and loved.

“Thanks Reece for taking care of our little dog Teddy at short notice. Ted seemed entirely at home, and I appreciated that she had company all day, getting to explore the garden, snooze on the beds and even get a little walk - Reece was great at providing updates and photos, and super friendly.”
About: I have looked after animals since I was little I’ve looked after families and friends animals dogs and cats and I have a cat that I look after I have loads of time to look after your pups as I’m waiting to get a part time job and would love to look after your baby’s I have a field across the road which has loads of grass and loads of field to play on and safe for the pups !
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a young child. I have always had multiple pets. I am an ex police officer, so you know you can trust me in your home. I’m confident, friendly and reliable. I am extremely flexible and willing to change my day around to meet the needs of you and your pet. Any questions/requests just ask me! I am confident with animals and very trustworthy. I intend on keeping the owner updated with pictures and discussions about their pets throughout my visit
About: I grew up around animals and have a love for dogs and cats in particular although I have been known to cuddle a piglet or a bearded dragon at times! I have always had one or two dogs as an adult. A house just feels empty without them. My love of animals motivated me to complete a degree in animal behaviour. This gave me a really good insight into canine behaviour and the ability to look at a situation from a dogs perspective, this has been invaluable at times. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes and personalities, from energetic young dogs to older pets who need a calmer, more gentle approach. I understand that every dog is an individual and I pay particular attention to how the dynamics between the dogs change when they are living together so that we can keep everyone happy. I always take the time to learn their routine, preferences and needs so they feel safe, comfortable and happy while in my care. I can also carry on training habits or administer medication whilst they are with us. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles or simply keeping to their usual routine, I'll care for your dog as if they were my own. My partner Mandy and I are both working from home at the moment so there will be someone available most of the time for back door opening, company and cuddles. I'm flexible and can usually accommodate your dog's normal routine, helping them feel settled and comfortable while they're with us. Your dog will be part of the pack in our home from home environment. Your dog's safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. We have a loving family home with three children—two teenagers and an eight-year-old who has grown up around animals and is always gentle and respectful. We also have two friendly, dog-tolerant cats, so any dogs staying with us will need to be comfortable around cats and children. Outside, we have a securely fenced area of the garden where dogs can safely enjoy time outdoors. In the summer, they have access to their own paddling pool. We also have a larger garden for exercise and play, although this area isn't fully escape-proof, so adventurous dogs with a talent for finding gaps may need to stay on a lead or enjoy the secure area instead. I always tailor each dog's access to outdoor spaces based on their personality and level of recall to keep them safe. I only accept dogs that I feel will be happy and comfortable in our home environment. This helps ensure a safe, relaxed and enjoyable experience for your dog, our family and our own pets. To determine this, we always like to have a visit from you and your dog to our home. We just want to be as sure as we can that everyone is going to be happy during their stay!
“Otis spent the day with Jayne and James in preparation for a longer stay with them. The regular photos and videos helped me to feel reassured that Otis was having a lovely time with a caring, friendly couple - he was happy and settled when I collected him and I feel happy that he was well looked after, and will be on his future stays.”
“Victoria has been great! She was communicating very well whilst looking after our dog and Bonnie (our dog) had a great time. She settled in straight away and she was happy as ever. Highly recommend Victoria!”

About: I have had family dogs since I was 4 years old. I was brought up in a house of animal lovers, and have always loved dogs especially. I have looked after and cared for lots of friends dogs in the past, and now would like to make a bit of additional income out of doing it, whilst also spending time with the best animals on the planet! I love walking and I am very active, so walking dogs isn't a problem. The family dog (Basil) has gone blind sadly so I have been helping look after him, so I have experience with this. I have also looked after different breeds of dogs, so I am prepared to look after a variety of different breeds. I have also dealt with dogs with anxiety, and ADHD, so feel I have experience supporting and caring for dogs in that area. I am a very kind, gentle person, who loves giving dogs attention and tummy rubs! My spirit animal is also a golden retriever if that helps! I work full time Monday-Friday, although finish at midday on Fridays. So I will be available most evenings to help walk or look after the dog, or during lunches also as I WFH a lot of the week so can pop out and walk the dogs no bother! I also have plenty of time and capacity free on the weekends for house sittings and to walk and look after your dogs whilst you are away. Always keep an eye out on my pets, make sure they are happy and relaxed. Give them plenty of fuss. I like to play with them as I know it is good for them. It is good to stimulate them so hiding treats around the room and getting them to find them and sniff them out is good for them. Plenty of cuddles. Giving them space and leaving them to relax if they are tired and resting. Watching out for any warning signs of stress or anxiety. Also reading the signs of when they need to go out to the toilet! Making them feel safe, secure, relaxed by acting calm around them. Not raising my voice or shouting, speaking to them in a positive tone and tell them they are a good boy/girl is my fave thing!
About: I have always absolutely loved animals especially dogs. I have grown up around all different breeds of dogs and I currently have two cocker spaniels who are crazy but I have so much love for them. I am confident with feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship, as well as following specific routines and instructions from owners. I understand the importance of keeping dogs safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away, and I am patient, reliable, and attentive to their individual needs. Whether it’s energetic dogs that need plenty of exercise or older dogs that require a calmer approach, I am comfortable adapting to provide the best care possible. I currently work part time so I will have so much fee time to spend with your dogs!! On a day to day usually I am caring for my two dogs and taking them on lots of walks. I am always making sure my pets are healthy and in a safe environment especially when my own dog loves to pick up rubbish everywhere she goes🫣
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have two cats of my own and have spent years walking and looking after family dogs, ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or daytime check ins, I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering reliability, patience, and plenty of love. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, as I am available in the evenings on weekdays, from 1PM onwards on Fridays, and all day on weekends. This flexibility allows me to provide regular walks, drop-in visits, and pet-sitting services while ensuring each pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s an evening stroll or weekend care, I am committed to accommodating the needs of both pets and their owners. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a pet owner’s home. I create a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment by following any specific instructions regarding feeding, routines, and special needs. I always ensure dogs are walked in safe areas, on a leash unless otherwise instructed, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and provide regular updates to give peace of mind. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for.
“Gabrielle took such good care of Meg and was really thoughtful in messaging me to keep me updated with reports and photos of their time together. I know I can relax and trust that Meg is in safe hands with Gabrielle”
“Lucy has been a fantastic dog walker for our dog Riley! She's consistently punctual, keeps us well-informed, and is incredibly attentive to Riley's needs. We couldn't be happier with her service, highly recommend!”
About: I have been a self employed dog walker for 5 years, prior to that I worked at a dog day care centre for 3 years and did 2 years volunteer work at a dog kennels. Whilst working at the day care centre, I have spent 2 years driving round picking up dogs from their homes, including using keys owners had given us. My mum and dad had a 15 year old lurcher, which i looked after regularly. I have a lot of experience with both dogs and people. I am doing this to help out people who may struggle looking after/walking their dog. I will enjoy this as i love walking dogs. I have a level 3 extended diploma in Animal Management which i got at Newton Rigg College, where I gained a lot of experience with dogs. I just love dogs so much and just want to spend as much time as possible with them. I will come and walk your dog, i offer a long walk or a short walk, it all depends on what you want. I am currently doing a canine communication diploma and have signed up for a behaviour and training course. I am a self employed dog walker, and do pet sitting aswell, so I can change my schedule quite easily to fit in all work. When I come to your home to look after your pet/s, I can do what you want me to, whether feeding, walking, playing or just making sure your pet isnt lonely!

“Reece and Lucy looked after our dog Bobby for a week, and I can honestly say they've been fantastic. Before we booked Bobby's stay, we had a nice meet and greet in the park which was a lovely idea. Bobby immediately liked Reece and Lucy; they both were so great with him. It's obvious they're both really good with dogs of all temperaments and Bobby had a great stay. We had regular updates and photos which was a nice touch and reassurance that our dog was doing well :) As we picked our dog up he was so happy and cheerful so I can with confidence say that they've been lovely looking after him. Thanks so much and I will definitely book another stay with them!! Highly recommend, they're such lovely people and dogs love them.”

“My boy has been so well looked after by Christina. He’s had the best time, Christina has sent lots of updates throughout the weekend, lots of video, pictures and text updates to let me know how he was getting on. I really couldn’t have picked a better sitter for Buddy. We will definitely be using Christina again, I think Buddy would insist on it 🤭”
“Lydia took wonderful care of our dog Frank for 11 nights at her home. We couldn’t be more pleased with the whole experience and Frank certainly seems to have enjoyed his stay.
