Parker seemed to have a lovely time with Angela. She followed all our instructions and he settled in really well. He had lots of walks and food and cuddles and we’d definitely be happy to use them again.

Our dogs stayed with Kat for four nights and we were absolutely delighted with the service. It was truly a home-from-home experience. The boys were so well looked after and clearly very happy when we collected them. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend Kat to anyone looking for loving, reliable care for their dogs!

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.

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.

5* review - Katy is extremely passionate and knowledgable with dogs, she treats your fur baby exactly like her own. Biggie had a lovely few nights staying with her, Chris and Tiger. She sent regular updates & photos of what they had been upto and it totally put my mind at ease. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter then she is your woman! 😊

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.

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’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally. I’ve spent years around all kinds of breeds and personalities, from high energy springer spaniels to independent dachshunds and loyal German shepherds. At home we have one of each, so I know first-hand how different their needs, routines and quirks can be. Whether it’s long walks, playtime or just making them feel safe and happy, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am home from uni for summer, so I can take them on short/long walks across Hadrian’s wall. Or we can relax at home, on the sofa 😛 I treat both the dog and the space with the same care and respect I would my own. I know how important it is for dogs to feel comfortable in their usual surroundings, so I stick to their normal routine and keep things calm and consistent. I’m tidy, reliable and always make sure everything’s left just how I found it — except maybe with a happier, well-walked dog.

Amazing, couldn’t have asked for better caring people to look after my dog Margo.

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.

About: I have loved dogs since day one, growing up we had two Labradors, one of which was a rescue. My mum also added a little Westie to the gang, so along with 3 cats, it was quite a busy household! I developed a deep love and understanding of their unique personalities and needs. Now, as the proud owner with my wife of four wonderful dogs, three are rescue dogs, two of which are Thai street dogs, and my mums Bedlington Terrier following her passing. Two of the rescue dogs are reactive to other dogs so I bring a hands-on experience in handling a variety of temperaments with patience and care. Whether it’s providing a calming presence for anxious pups or ensuring playful companions get the exercise they need, I’m committed to creating a safe, happy environment for every dog I care for. I would be delighted to care for your dog, if you're happy for me to help, please pop me a message! I currently work from home, so I'm free during the week and weekends to look after your lovely dog! If you have any questions, just let me know! We have a fenced garden and if your dog gets on with other dogs, we have four of our own to keep them company if needs be. We also have two crates if required.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, from cats and dogs to horses and pigs. I’ve house-sat for multiple families, ensuring their pets are well cared for and kept in their usual routines while owners are away. I hold a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management, which gave me in-depth knowledge of animal health, welfare, behaviour, and husbandry across multiple species. Alongside this, I have experience working in a small animal veterinary practice, where I developed strong skills in recognising signs of illness, supporting senior pets, and assisting with general animal care. I am confident with basic medication administration and maintaining consistent routines for puppies and younger dogs. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve regularly cared for my own pets as well as those of family and friends for many years. I am responsible, reliable, and understand the trust involved in caring for both pets and homes. Pet care is my full-time focus.

Gail was fantastic with looking after our Cavachon, Maisie for some daycare and we felt very reassured leaving her, along with lovely Luna the Cockapoo! Maisie seemed completely relaxed being there and Gail was very kind, helpful and communicative throughout the whole process. Would happily recommend and rebook. Thanks Gail!

I would 100% recommend Svitlana for any dog sitting duties. She looked after my little Ollie last minute yesterday and she was so lovely and patient. He had such a lovely time & I was sent lots of pictures and reassurance throughout the day. Thank you so much!

About: Hi everyone! My name is Naomi, I am very new to this app. I have grew up with animals since a very young age of 3 year old. I am animal obsessed but dogs hold a very close place in my heart! I have 2 rescue lurchers that I take out on walks and make memories with. I am a very kind and caring person and if I’m honest my love for animals is more than humans 🙈 I love going on long walks with my dogs and dogs that are owned by family and friends. I am very good with dogs at all ages and have a lot of experience with young, teen and elderly dogs. I train regularly at the gym as one of my hobbies so I can withstand a dog that pulls on the leash too, as I am aware no dog can be perfect. I look forward to meeting your pets, they will be in great hands and I will look after them like my own pets! I am available for walks and visits any hours on a Tuesday and the weekends. I am available for walks and visits any other weekdays after 5.30pm. If you have any certain requests to not hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to meeting your pets! I am currently working as a dental nurse 35 hours week so I do have spare time, in which I would like to spend meeting and walking new dogs I care for my two lurchers by taking them out on daily walks and playing lots of games to keep them mentally stimulated as they are high energy dogs by playing scent and lure games and lots of different types of training. Not to mention giving them lots of cuddles/scratches and feeding them nutritious food.

Kat always goes above and beyond when taking Wilma on walks. Our dog is reactive and I feel so lucky to have found a dog walker who I trust and understands her. Really recommend Kat, Wilma is always in the best mood after her walks and I am so grateful to have such a brilliant dog walker!!

About: Throughout my childhood i had a love for animals which resulted in a variety of family pets. In 2018 i started volunteering at an animal refuge, caring for dogs who didn’t have a home. This was to work towards becoming a veterinary nurse. I started my training in 2019 and have now been qualified since 2021, a job i am greatly passionate for. In 2022, i started pet sitting for colleagues and through word of mouth. I have loved every minute of pet sitting i have done, meeting new furry faces and gradually getting to know them. I do block work in London and live in Carlisle when i am off. I will spend as much time with your animal as specified, giving them my undivided attention. I work with owners to come to an agreement on a routine i will stick with. I respect all of the owners training command words and special requests for their pets. I take great care in looking after both your pet and your home, ensuring there is no stress or worry when you return from your holidays.

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.

About: I’ve been using borrow my doggy for the past 2 years and looked after a few dogs over that period. I tend to look after the same ones as I find it easier once a relationship is built with them and their owners. I’m super easy going and not precious about them getting on furniture or sleeping on my bed but am also respectful of what the owners rules at home are! I currently work full time, over 4 days a week, so would be available for evening walks/company or weekend sleepovers. I would love a dog of my own but cannot commit at the moment, so I find this the perfect way to get my fix Currently live at home with my parents, with a big gated garden. I’m very mindful of other people’s dogs in public spaces and am aware of signs when a dog may feel distressed. I’m also more than happy for them to get on the furniture and sleep on my bed if that’s what the owner allows:)

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally. I’ve spent years around all kinds of breeds and personalities, from high energy springer spaniels to independent dachshunds and loyal German shepherds. At home we have one of each, so I know first-hand how different their needs, routines and quirks can be. Whether it’s long walks, playtime or just making them feel safe and happy, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am home from uni for summer, so I can take them on short/long walks across Hadrian’s wall. Or we can relax at home, on the sofa 😛 I treat both the dog and the space with the same care and respect I would my own. I know how important it is for dogs to feel comfortable in their usual surroundings, so I stick to their normal routine and keep things calm and consistent. I’m tidy, reliable and always make sure everything’s left just how I found it — except maybe with a happier, well-walked dog.

Parker seemed to have a lovely time with Angela. She followed all our instructions and he settled in really well. He had lots of walks and food and cuddles and we’d definitely be happy to use them again.

Lexie what’s a great Sitter for our dog Parker. She offered to come and meet him beforehand so she could get to know him and his needs. She sent photos while we were away and he seemed very happy and comfortable there. Would use again.

Our dogs stayed with Kat for four nights and we were absolutely delighted with the service. It was truly a home-from-home experience. The boys were so well looked after and clearly very happy when we collected them. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend Kat to anyone looking for loving, reliable care for their dogs!

5* review - Katy is extremely passionate and knowledgable with dogs, she treats your fur baby exactly like her own. Biggie had a lovely few nights staying with her, Chris and Tiger. She sent regular updates & photos of what they had been upto and it totally put my mind at ease. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter then she is your woman! 😊

Lovely location with fields and open spaces. When I went to pick up our dog she did not want to come home or appeared to have missed us! Would certainly recommend.
