About: Hi! I’m a caring, reliable animal lover with plenty of hands-on experience looking after pets. I have a playful Doberman called Bruno who loves making new friends, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes as well as cats. I’ve regularly looked after pets for friends and family, and I always treat them like my own. I also have experience administering oral medication when needed. As an active person, I enjoy long walks and regular trips to the beach, so your dog will get lots of exercise, attention, enrichment, and affection while in my care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide flexible, reliable care for your pets. As an active dog owner, I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure every pet feels happy, safe, and well looked after. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, patience, and individual attention. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, keep you updated with regular photos and messages, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout their stay.
“Nicola and her family looked after Charlie so well. Not only were they flexible around changing times and able to accommodate them, they were able to manage his separation anxiety very well. I would definitely recommend Nicola and her lovely family, and I would definitely ask Nicola if Charlie could board with them again.”
“Alex was very reliable, seemed to have a lot of experience and natural intuition about dogs and their different needs which made me feel at ease when leaving Luna all weekend. She was also really flexible which really helped. Luna seemed to have a really good time and I'd definitely recommend her to other dog owners and book again myself.”
“Neuza looked after my dog, Pedro, for 3 nights. He was safe and well cared for throughout. She sent frequent photos and messages to keep us updated. She was very friendly and approachable.”
“Ted had a fabulous stay with Elizabeth. He settled as soon as he arrived as she had suggested a meet and greet visit so he felt familiar with the house. She was highly knowledgeable and professional, and kept us updated about how he was doing when we were away. He'd love to stay again ❤️”
“So delighted to have found Lauren and her partner to care for Luna. She stayed for one night when I went to an event, and I was a bit nervous about leaving her as she is with me all the time. Lauren sent me lots of pictures and updates and reassured me that luna was fine and having a great sleepover with their doggie. She had lots of walks and was settled. Would not hesitate to book Lauren again and she's so close to where I live, it's great ?”
“Wonderful host!! Murray was so well looked after on his little holiday.

“Martyna and Jack were fantastic. They arranged for a trial visit to allow our dog time to bond with their dogs and then took our dog in as one of their own when she stayed with them. They shared constant updates and made sure the dogs had multiple walks every day. Daisy loved her time staying with Jack and Martyna and we will definitely be using them again! Thanks guys!”

“Lauren looked after our Eva and Erica so wonderfully over the weekend. Her drop-in reports were so detailed and we loved receiving all the pictures! Especially with having a cat on medication it was so reassuring knowing they were in safe hands while we were away. She even managed to get some strokes in which is very impressive with our shy cats! I would definitely book her again, and would highly recommend her! ☺️”
“Heather was brilliant with our Margot. She came round for a comprehensive and reassuring meet and greet prior to the sitting. During the sitting she sent us great information and picture of our cat. We highly reccommend Hether to anyone who needs an excellent cat sitter.”

About: My partner Bee and I have been looking after dogs for years now. We grew up with dogs and cats of many different breeds, and love all things animals. We regularly look after our friends’ dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and even owl, so we’ve seen it all and enjoyed every second! Bee and I both work full-time, but almost entirely remote and there is always at least one of us in the house. When pet sitting, we take regular breaks to ensure the animals are fed, watered, walked and toileted as needed, and allow them to roam around the house, garden and office throughout the day. We have a fenced back garden ideal for toilet breaks, stretching legs and playing fetch. There’s also a large tiled kitchen, ideal for cleaning and drying damp pets.
“Caroline was just brilliant at looking after Meg, our little foster kitty, who can be shy around strangers. Meg really took to Caroline and enjoyed plenty of cuddles and playtime during the visits. Caroline was very conscientious and followed the guidance we gave. Throughly recommend Caroline as a 5 star cat sitter 😻”
“Isabela was brilliant with our cat Tasha. She was able to administer her insulin injections well, and spent a lot of time caring for Tasha and keeping her company. Tasha definitely loved being looked after by Isabela, with lots of videos and pictures of her looking very happy, which we really appreciated! ”
“Katie looked after my cat Zaz, while I was away over the weekend. She organised a meet and greet prior and communicated well throughout. Her updates made me feel at ease knowing Zaz was well cared for.”
“I'd recommend Phillipa to any cat owner. Communication was fantastic both pre and during booking, and she was completely reliable. She took amazing care of my very shy cat- sitting in the garden with her to make sure she had outside time, and being really gentle with her. I was amazed how she got our cat to trust her.”
“Erin kindly looked after our very shy cat. She kept us up to date every visit including pictures. She was incredibly reliable, and has brilliant natural ability with cats! I would recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter.”
About: My partner and I have both grown up surrounded by animals — from dogs and cats to rabbits and even horses. Having pets has always been a big part of our lives and our homes never felt complete without them. We’ve recently bought our first home in Mossley Hill, and although our current schedules don’t allow us to have pets of our own, we really miss that familiar comfort animals bring. By looking after your pet while you’re away, we hope to give you peace of mind while also getting the joy of having a furry friend back in our home. Trust me— you’ll be going us a favour. I’ve never known a life without animals — pets have been a constant source of joy, responsibility, and companionship for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by rescue dogs at my gran’s, each with their own story and quirks, which taught me patience and empathy from an early age. At my mum’s house, I’m greeted by two beautiful Staffies who think they’re tiny lapdogs, and at my dad’s, I have two wonderfully chaotic springer spaniels who never run out of energy, I mean NEVER. Because of this, I’m completely at home with both ends of the canine spectrum — from calm cuddle sessions on the sofa to 5-mile muddy treks through the woods. Whether it’s lounging or adventuring, I’m always ready… wellies included. Currently my partner and I are in full time work as he is working towards his Chartership as a Building Surveyor and I’ve just passed the Bar. We are free most weekends Friday-Sunday and bank holidays so if you and your family fancy some time away we’ve got you covered. We have a fenced garden with patio and plenty of grass to run around in. We are short walks away from Calderstones Park, Sefton Park and Greenbank Park. Me and my partner love a long walk and picking up a warm coffee and a sweet treat so your dogs steps are guarenteed. We have an open plan kitchen/dining/living room and also an additional living room. We have no other pets so anxious/ nervous dogs or pet owners don’t need to worry about introducing other animals.
“I genuinely don’t even know where to start with this review. I don’t think I could recommend anyone more than I recommend Dilki and Chamy to take care of your pet. I left Pikachu with them for just over three weeks, and he’s usually very nervous around strangers, so I was honestly quite anxious leaving him. But from the moment I dropped him off, I realised it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Within the first day, he was already relaxed — rolling around, playing, sleeping on their beds and even on their desks — to the point where it genuinely looked like Pikachu was their cat, not mine. They constantly sent me updates and photos, which gave me so much reassurance while I was away. Whether Pikachu was lounging around, eating his breakfast, or playing with them, I always knew exactly how he was doing, and it brought me so much peace of mind. While I was abroad, I unfortunately got really sick and had to extend Pikachu’s stay by almost two extra weeks. They were nothing but kind, understanding, and reassuring throughout the whole situation, and never once made me feel like it was a problem. They truly went above and beyond. If there is one thing you do, please leave your pet with this couple. They are genuinely some of the kindest, sweetest people I’ve ever met, and they make your pet feel completely at home, safe, and loved. I wouldn’t trust Pikachu with anyone else”
“I can't recommend Jess enough especially if your dog is reactive or anxious. Jess has a lot of empathy and very good understanding of dogs behaviour. She was really patient with my rescue dog and provided regular updates after each visit.”
“George has always been fantastic and super dependable. Great with Reggie (lab puppy) who adores him. Sends great pics throughout his visit and couldn’t be happier with George. Very understanding and flexible, even biked round to help my sister in law out when she forgot her key! Great guy”
“Sheena was everything we could have hoped for in a sitter. She gave us daily updates, along with pictures and video of our boy. We were left completely at ease that he was not only looked after but thoroughly enjoying his new friend! She definitely seems to have a way with cats. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely be booking again.”

“I left Marlo with Neuza for the first time just for a day visit and Neuza took great care of Marlo. This was his first stay with a dog sitter as he’s only 9mths old. She welcomed him into her home and showed me her lovely garden, all fenced and safe for Marlo to play. He had a good walk and instantly looked relaxed with her. Thank you Nueza for taking care of our puppy 🐶”
“A big thank you to Helen and Alex for looking after our mini labradoodle Oscar on Sunday! It was Oscar’s first stay and he was made to feel so welcome and had a lovely day! Communication was great during the day, Oscar can’t wait to come back and stay in a couple of weeks!”

About: I know trusting someone to care for your pet can feel stressful. But I'll make your dog feel safe, happy and very loved. I've taken care of dogs for nearly 10 years. I've looked after a range of breeds and ages - from a puppy cockerspaniel through to a big and energetic Golden Doodle - and understand every dog is different. I'll get to know your pet's personality, what they like and their routines so staying with me feels like a home away from home. I am self-employed and work from home, so I'll always be around to give cuddles and lots of attention. Sefton Park, Princes Park and Otterspool Promenade are all a ten minute walk form my house. So, there are plenty of lovely green space for us to go and explore together! I am self-employed and work from home, which means I can adapt to your pet's routine and have plenty of time for cuddles and play. I have a walled yard - perfect for dogs who like to chill in the outdoors. I have a three bedroom house, so there's plenty of room for your pet to wander around indoors. Dog are allowed upstairs.
“We have just booked Katia as a weekly sitter for our dog cash. Katia has been very accommodating, initially coming to our house for a few hours so that cash could get used to get before he goes and stays at hers. Katia seems very knowledgeable on dogs and great with anxious dogs, our dog loves her already. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and caring for them has always been something I truly enjoy. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive and happy to spend time walking, playing, feeding and giving them the care and affection they need. Every dog has their own personality, and I always do my best to make them feel relaxed and happy. 🐶 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, so dogs are rarely left alone and always have company. I can easily plan my day around walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I also have a dog named Annie, a friendly mixed breed who loves making new friends and spending time playing in the garden. Her playful and sociable nature helps visiting dogs feel at ease and enjoy their time here. I always make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and part of the family while they are in my care. 🐾🐶 I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. At home, I make sure all areas are secure, clean, and free from hazards so dogs can explore and play safely. I supervise all interactions, especially when pets meet my dog Annie, to ensure everyone gets along and has fun. I follow each pet’s individual routine for feeding, walks, and rest, and I always monitor their health and wellbeing closely. Owners can trust that their pets will never be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation. Creating a safe, happy, and loving environment is my top priority, so pets feel relaxed and cared for while I’m looking after them.

About: I've always had a natural connection with animals, dogs and cats, since very young, always having dogs and cats in the family home, whether my own pets or the pets of those I have lived with. I have a wide range of experience ranging from volunteering at a cat sanctuary in Vietnam to the care, regular walks of two demanding and loving husky crosses at home, house sitting for friends/family and everything in-between. It comes natural, I get alot of joy and fullfillment from the company of animals, you can rest assured your beloved dog or cat will be well looked after. As my work is freelance, it gives me the fluidity to be flexible in a variety of segments of the week, giving me that option to schedule time for pet care. Typically the dogs at home would have freedom and the attention they need. They have baby gates for times of visitors or for extra caution, and a big garden for free roaming happiness. With plenty of play time and cuddles
About: I have looked after and dog sat for many relatives and friends dogs over the years. From Dachshund to Labrador, hyper to chill, I'm very confident and comfortable with all shapes, sizes, and energy levels. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and of course all the strokes and cuddles! I work hybrid full-time, however I work flexi time meaning I can be (you guessed it) flexible with my working hours, giving your furry friend the care and attention it requires! I am occupied on Wednesdays with sports training from 7:30-9pm, but that is the only time in the week I am unavailable. Having lots of experience with catering to pets environmental needs, I am happy to follow specific instructions as needed. I will ensure that you return to yours and yours pet home in the same way you found it!
About: I am an experienced dog owner seeking furry companionship following my soul dog’s departure to the rainbow bridge🌈 I spent the last 14 years taking care of Pie, a patterdale terrier, who we adopted from the Dog’s Trust when he was two years old. In his golden years, Pie developed painful cataracts in his eyes due to the diabetes his breed is prone to, resulting in the removal of his eyes. Ever the trooper, Pie was an absolute star for his twice-daily insulin injections, regular pet visits and adapting to life without sight. His quality of life was of utmost priority, and I spent a long time working with him to find out what worked best for his specific needs as a blind senior dog. Therefore, I am well equipped to take care of dogs with special needs and senior dogs, alongside any other of your delightful four legged friends! Cats too! I don’t discriminate 🥰 I am an art teacher based in South Liverpool and am keen for some animal time over summer and during my evenings, weekends and half terms Happy to answer any pet-related questions - just drop me a message! I am a teacher, so my main availability is late afternoons and evenings throughout the week. I am fully available on weekends and during summer holidays and half terms I live off a main road and have a small, private garden, close by to many grassy outdoor spaces such as Sefton Park. I am happy to work with you and your fur baby in the best care for them, whether that is in my home or yours!

About: Hello! My name is Hannah and I’m 29. I’ve taken care of many pets for over 14 years (mostly dogs and cats) of all different sizes, breeds and temperaments. As a young child I grew up in a home taking care of 4 dogs (border collies), rabbits, mice, fish and many cats. I have recently returned home from travelling and currently living with my mum and step-dad. They have 3 border collies (2 elderly & 1 young) who I look after a lot whilst they are away / have work commitments (no job is too small!) Over the last 14 years, I’ve done a lot of pet-sitting for family, friends, acquaintances and those who have heard about my services through friends of friends. I’ve mostly looked after cats and dogs - including, tabby cats, Siamese cats, Maine Coon cats, Bombay cats, ginger cats, border collies, red setters, sausage dogs, cockapoos and french bulldogs. Whether you’re looking for a one-off walker, regular walker, or need a home pet-sitter whilst you attend to other commitments, I’m here to help! I can keep up with any training you have in place - e.g. not allowing the pets to come upstairs, not on the furniture etc. At the current moment, I’m mostly available weekends. I work full time in my career field (marketing) but it is hybrid so I can work from home on select days to care for your fur-(& furless)babies. I will always care for your beloved pet(s) in your home or take them for walks. Whether that be a leisurely walk for mellow / senior dogs who just want to sniff and explore or miles long to tire out your dog’s high energy, I can tailor my services to suit your dog(s) wants and needs. I love anything outdoorsy so no walk is too long nor too short, I will go for however long is required for your pet.

About: I currently hold an OFQUAL level 3 in Canine Care, Welfare and Behaviour, as well as a certificate in Canine First Aid, and am currently studying a Level 4 in Canine Training and Behavioural Management. I have spent the last two years working hands-on with dogs in boarding and daycare facilities. This has involved providing high levels of care for breeds of all sizes and temperaments from Papillons and Chihuahuas to Great Danes and XL Bullies. This involved managing their excercise, enrichment, training, rest, feeding, and medication. I see each dog as unique, an individual with individual needs, and a personality to match! Whether your dog has unique quirks, issues with reactivity, or require those breed-specific extras (I'm a Border Collie owner myself so fully understand), they can be catered for. I am currently available Monday through to Thursday for walking and sitting, which allows plenty of time to give your dogs the attention they need. I am fully qualified and experienced dog handler, and as such can provide the highest quality of care for your dog, using only the most up to date methods of positive reinforcement.
About: I have grown up with own dogs but sadly my two pups (Mutley and Meg) are no longer with us, so I would like to help others with their pet needs!

I’m currently looking for work opportunities so I have lots of flexibility. If trusted with your pet, I will ensure that my schedule fits your needs completely beforehand. As I currently live at my family home, I am only able to offer house sitting and not home boarding. I am a clean freak, respectful to neighbours and would have an in depth conversation about your expectations, whether this included plant care etc.

I work part time 18 hours an across the week. I have Tuesdays, Fridays and weekends off.

I live close to lots of lovely open spaces for walks. Bella (my fur baby) and my favourites are the Speke Costal walk and Caldersrones park.

I’m not currently employed so looking after your pet won’t be a problem at all. I use a crate for my own dog at night in our household but understand not all people do the same so can easily adapt to what your “rules” are. I believe in positive reinforcement to encourage desired behaviours and think punishment is not something to be justified in any circumstance. I have a fenced garden and know the importance of checking for closed gates as I personally don’t fancy chasing after the second fastest land mammal 🤣!
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small pets for years. Experienced with senior care and medication. I love taking dogs on long walks and runs. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with pets! I’m available for walks, runs, boarding on weekends, and weekday afternoons. I have a secure fenced garden and always supervise playtime. I follow each pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and can crate your dog if needed for comfort and safety.
“Lilly came and looked after Dusty for 3 nights while we were on holiday. We would highly recommend her. Dusty can be wary of new people and she took to Lilly very quickly, Lilly was patient, understanding amd made sure Dusty had everything needed. Lilly was also prompt with replies to messages whilst not bombarding us. We felt Dusty was in very safe hands and the house was looked after and spotless when we got home. Very high recommend from us!”
About: I have lots of experience with dogs through having my own, raising a litter of puppies, and helping socialise dogs with my daughter. I love spending time outdoors and taking dogs on fun adventures to safe, dog-friendly locations where they can explore, exercise, and enjoy themselves. Every dog is treated like my own, with plenty of care, attention, and love. Whether it's a fun walk, a drop-in visit for feeding, playtime, toilet breaks, and cuddles, or spending extra time with your pet over the weekend, I'll make sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe and caring hands. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy at all times. I take time to get to know each pet's routine, personality, and any extra care they might need so they receive the care that's best for them

“So delighted to have found Lauren and her partner to care for Luna. She stayed for one night when I went to an event, and I was a bit nervous about leaving her as she is with me all the time. Lauren sent me lots of pictures and updates and reassured me that luna was fine and having a great sleepover with their doggie. She had lots of walks and was settled. Would not hesitate to book Lauren again and she's so close to where I live, it's great ?”

The dog most definitely enjoyed himself there! we will definitely be using paul again in the future if we ever need to!”
