“Helen was a great host for our Sprocker, Parker. He got lots of love and attention and was very happy to be with them. Helen was very keen to know what Parker liked and make his stay as comfortable as possible. I can’t recommend her enough. xx”

“Angela and Paul are just fantastic. My two dogs had a great time with them again and came home shattered. It is all about the dog(s) and I have no problem at all leaving my two in their care. Thank you both.”


“Beth has been a godsend due to being let down at last minute with our pet sitter. She accepted our last minute booking and was a great communicator, helping us with directions and asking the necessary questions relating to our two border terriers. The girls were well looked after and we got many photos during their weeks stay.”

“Fantastic sitter and such a lovely person. Booking for mine and my mums dog, my mum was quite nervous leaving her senior dog for a few nights but can't believe how settled she was. Both of our girls have come back happy and relaxed”

“Simply put, Lexie is wonderful and your fur babies will be extremely well looked after and loved and you get lots of updates and pictures. Thanks again Lexie, Dottie will see you again in December.”

“Bethany looked after Lola for a night and day, Lola had a great time. Bethany is a great communicator, sent photos, and took Lola out for a day of adventures, which she loves. Lola was her bright and happy self when I picked her up. I will definitely use this sitter again.”

“Michelle was absolutely wonderful. Nothing was too much for her. Our dog has a disability Michelle was so good and did more than we expected in caring for Mouse. I couldn’t thank her enough and her wonderful family. Thankyou”

“Used Mollie for the first time at the weekend and our dog Sadie was welcomed and made to feel at home straight away. I wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thank you for looking after our precious pooch.”

“We were so pleased to find Svitlana when we needed somewhere in Workington for our dog to stay. Sivtlana was quick and professional to communicate with and very willing to be flexible with us when we couldn't confirm exact drop off time til close to the day, and also when we needed to collect our dog early due to a change in our plans. Had a lovely video of Harley playing, so I'm sure he had a great stay :) We'll rebook if we are in need to have him stay in Workington again.”

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life. From walking my family’s dogs from a young age to looking after friends dogs for the past 5 years and having my own cocker spaniel for 2 years now. I currently work 3 days a week so have atleast 4 days available to love, play and walk your fur babies. My cocker spaniel loves making new friends and loves doggy company. I have a fenced garden and plenty of local walks around and a field opposite my house. I also love going to the Lake District with my dog so would be able to provide plenty of adventure for your dog. I can crate your dog if needed and provide plenty of toys and fun.
“Katy and Chris were fantastic! Ruby had such a good time while she stayed with them. She got on so well with her buddy Tiger their golden retriever. We felt very reassured throughout her stay because Katy was excellent at keeping in touch with us with pictures and updating us what they all got up to. Will definitely book again and highly recommend Katy and Chris for your furry friends :)”


About: I am a young, fit individual who loves going on walks and spending time with animals🐾🏔️☺️ I can provide daily visits for dogs (or cats), dog walking, doggy day care or at times overnight boarding! For overnight boarding the dogs are allowed on the sofa, and there are lots of toys and balls to play with here too☺️ I have had dogs my whole life, starting with labradors and now border terriers. My own dog Teddy has a diagnosis of epilepsy so I am able to manage dogs with medical conditions well. I have access to a car and can drive to any appointments🚘 If my availability doesn’t suit, don’t hesitate to send a request or message anyways and I will see what I can do. My partner often helps me too if I am unavailable🥰 I currently work full time through a shift schedule. However I often have spare time on my hands during days off on which I would love to go a walk or help out other dog owners. I can also provide overnight boarding for well behaved, socialised dogs. When in someone else’s home I will respect any instructions given to me. I can bring my own dog on walks (if wanted) to keep company.

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a young baby from collies to labs to spaniels then to my two gorgeous pugs who lived until 17 & 16 I work full time at home with my husband who also works full time at home so there is someone in 24/7 7 days a week We are used to have a couple of dogs in the house so that’s no problem If you have two or three dogs We also have experience with not only young dogs having dogs since pups but also elderly dogs as our dogs lived a long 17 & 16 years so we are aware of the difference in pace We live in the beautiful countryside in the village of Haltwhistle in a 4 bedroom stone built house surround by endless fields and stunning settings.

“Estera was absolutely amazing! Both of my cats are shy at first with people but she made them feel so comfortable from the first visit that they trusted her straight away! I will definitely book again and totally recommend! 👌🐱😻”


“I can’t recommend Linzi enough. She took great care of our cats and kept the house lovely and clean while we were away. She even won over the affection of our very picky cats, which says a lot! We couldn’t have asked for anyone better and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”


“Bethany was outstanding and we are so grateful she stepped in at short notice to look after our two cats. One cat likes to bring 'presents' and Bethany took it in her stride. We will definitely been using her regularly on weekends away. She also drove out to us which was a life saver. Thanks so much”


“Helen is an excellent cat minder, and Serge was a great helper. I was very nervous leaving Milo for the first time ever, but Helen’s experience truly shows in her care and she put me at ease. Helen stepped in at short notice for three nights and looked after him wonderfully. Helen carefully managed his wound care by keeping it completely clean and dry. Her regular photo and video updates gave me peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a relaxed, happy and perfectly healing cat. I would definitely recommend Helen.”

About: I have grown up with dogs. My mum used to teach at a puppy school and with her guidance my family has cared for dogs of all ages. As I grew older I learned how to be more involved in caring for our dogs as I was occasionally in charge of walking, feeding and caring for them by myself and would assist my mother with vet visits and training aspects. To this day she remains someone I contact occasionally with questions when dog sitting and through her, I realized what an honor it is to be trusted with caring for someone's pet. Since starting university, I have been able to work as a dog sitter through Rover and looked after various pets, either for short-times when their families went to work or for longer periods when they went on holiday. I am student, which gives me some flexibility when it comes to my weekday schedule. Though I have to attend classes on campus throughout the week, I sometimes have a few hours free in between classes and tend to finish around noon on Wednesdays and Thursdays. No pet I would take care of would have to stay home alone for longer than a few hours and if you have any concerns, feel free to reach out, so I can let you know what my schedule looks like during the time you would need a sitter. On weekends, I can arrange to stay with your pet for the entirety of the visit. I live in student halls, which unfortunately, does not allow pets. Therefore, I am unable to accept bookings for dog boarding and daycare. However, I am more than happy to look after your pet at your place if you are comfortable with that or pick them up for a walk. Please understand I won't unleash your dog unless I have taken care of them for a while and only with your permission. I own a long leash that I have often connected to whatever leash is provided by the owner to maximize the freedom of your dog and there are also some fenced areas at a park nearby where I am comfortable letting dogs roam freely. Please discuss any needs of yours or your pet and I will do my best to accommodate them.

About: I started off caring for pets just as a side job but I’ve got to say, in my experience, I love cats way more than dogs! All together I have cared for 3 different cats, 1 of them several times for a friend. I love their personalities and have experience in both outdoor and indoor cats. I have basic level first aid training. I am happy to administer medication on consent. I know have adopted a cat of my own, a lovely tabby named Bambi
About: Hi, I’m Beki 🐾 A lifelong pet lover, I treat every furry friend like my own. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or playtime, I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Reliable care + photo updates = peace of mind for you and tail wags for them! I’m currently working part time Monday to Wednesday. This means that I have time on Thursdays, Fridays at most times of the day and potentially weekends. I currently have no other pets (which is why I want to look after yours, I love the company!). I have an enclosed garden for lots of play.

About: Hi, I’m Cat! I have a 15 year-old cat and a rescue collie, so I understand pets with all kinds of needs from senior companions to nervous pups. I’ve volunteered in dog kennels, hold a Pet First Aid certificate, and am expanding my animal care training. Whether it’s walks, sitting, or just keeping your pets company, I’ll treat them with the same love and patience I give my own. I am a full-time freelance artist so I can work around your schedule and needs. I make sure to plan my bookings carefully so your pets always get the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow their usual routines to help them feel safe and comfortable whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or companionship. I’ll make sure fresh water is always available, give them lots of love and attention and send you regular updates so you know how they’re doing. I treat every home with respect, leaving it just as I found it, so you can relax knowing both your pets and your space are well cared for.

“Angus had a great time with Lexie today. Lexie sent me regular updates on Angus putting my mind at ease. And from the pictures I recieved I can tell he enjoyed every moment of it! I will certainly be booking again.”

“Amazing, couldn’t have asked for better caring people to look after my dog Margo. They went above and beyond taking her out on day trips, treating her like part of their family and also providing photos while I was away. I will be booking with them again!! I would highly recommend and I already have!!”

About: Very experienced dog trainer and behaviourist, with large rescue organisation for over 10 years. Avid dog lover, and previous dog mum to a sassy Daxi called Tilly. Countryside living in Cumbria, with both walks on the doorstep, and the fells a short drive away for those more adventurous paws! Dog got a few 'quirks'? Rest assured, ive seen em all! Positive training methods and vibes all the way! :) I am currently on a career break, so the world is my oyster at the moment. I enjoy getting out and about most days, so having a pooch to join me would be great! I understand every dog is different, so am able to adapt to each individual in order to meet both their, and your needs. I have a mature garden, which is full of lots of smells and room for adventures. the majority of it is enclosed, with some small gaps beneath some decking- however, I am more than happy to keep your pooch on a long line, and supervised at all times. I have multiple rooms, if your dog requires separating at certain times etc. I have space for crates etc. I am happy to accommodate your dog on the furniture, or on the bed if this makes them feel more at ease. I have access to a woodland which is not open to the public, so if your dog requires quieter walks away from the public, or other dogs, this can be accommodated easily.
“Our little Narla spent the day with Michelle & Ronny & absolutely loved it, she had loads of fun with Ronny, she just loves company. Would highly recommend Michelle 🌟 🌟”

About: We have around 2 years of experience caring for dogs through helping my mum with her dog-sitting business. We regularly help with feeding, walking, playtime and taking dogs to dog parks, and have experience with dogs of different sizes and personalities. We have had dogs since birth so we are very confident in looking after dogs. We have a large garden with a high, secure fence, giving dogs plenty of safe space to play and explore. We also have indoor rabbits, but they are kept separately in a secure, lockable room, so dogs will have no access to them. We’re responsible, caring and will treat every dog as if they were our own. Joseph and I work opposite shifts, so there will always be someone at home with your dog. There will never be a time where they are left alone.🐶❤️ We have a large, secure garden with a newly renovated, high and sturdy fence, with no gaps for even the cheekiest wee escape artists! 🐾 Our home is fully secured with CCTV covering the front, back and sides of the property, providing an extra layer of security. We also have indoor rabbits, but they are kept separately in a secure, lockable room that dogs cannot access. We love getting out for walks and are happy to explore anywhere, including taking dogs in the car for lovely scenic walks if they are comfortable travelling. We can also take dogs to secure doggy parks where they can safely run off the lead and have fun. At home, there will be plenty of playtime, whether that's indoor or out in the garden, as well as lots of cuddles and relaxing on the couch. We’ll always follow your dog’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. ❤️

About: I have had a rescue dog for 14 years and another dog from a puppy for 4 years. They are both loved and cherished, and your pet would be treated exactly the same. I also have experience working with animals at animal charities for the last 11 years and looking after friends' dogs frequently too. I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am happy to have them in my home as long as they fit in with my dog and kids, or I can come to your home if preferred. I have a fully fenced back garden and a very easygoing labradoodle who would like to play if your dog wants to, but is happy to give space if your dog prefers. I am fit and active so happy to give long walks if wanted.
