About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with 5 years of hands-on dog sitting experience. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, including English Cocker Spaniels, American Cocker Spaniels, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. As an adult, I’ve owned a miniature dachshund called Milo. Over the last few years I’ve regularly looked after dogs for friends and family, including dachshunds and a Shipoo (Shih Tzu/Poodle mix). I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels but I live in an apartment so larger dogs might not have the room they need for longer stays. I live alone in a secure owned apartment in central Manchester with a fully enclosed private astro-turfed roof terrace, so dogs have a safe outdoor space to relax and play. I work hybrid and have a flexible schedule so as long as I have a bit of notice I can work my office days around booking. With a bit more notice, I’m also available on weekends. I’ll keep you up to date through the day with pictures so you know your child is happy and safe. My apartment is on the border of Manchester and Salford with a number of small parks in very close proximity and Peel Park a 10 minute walk away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as I work hybrid role and have a flexible schedule, which means dogs get plenty of company, attention, toilet breaks, and walks throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m active myself, so regular walks and playtime are something I genuinely enjoy. I’m also flexible on weekends with notice, so I can adapt around a dog’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. I care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and settled from the moment they arrive. I’ll stick closely to their usual routine, including feeding times, walks, play, toilet breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner. My apartment is calm, clean, and secure, and I also have a fully enclosed private roof terrace with astro turf where dogs can safely get fresh air and relax. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel reassured while they’re away.
“Rob and Graeme are definitely the second daddies my Dog has! The happiness she has when she see them is just incredible and they do the extra milestone to make her as part of their family. Short or longer stays, they are absolutely my priority when booking as I do receive the regular updates and I can see how happy my puppy is. Thank you guys..you are the best!”
“Sam always takes wonderful care of our Frank, he comes home happy and knackered every time. We’re very grateful to have somewhere for him to stay where we have no worries what he’s up to, especially as he’s a very nervous boy. Thank you Sam as always!!!”
“Hannah was absolutely brilliant! She took great care of Pablo and managed to get him very well exercised and knackered every day which is no easy feat with his energy levels! Hannah managed to get Pablo settled very quickly and sent us plenty of updates which put us at ease too. I couldn’t recommend her enough and we will definitely be booking again, Pablo is very much looking forward for another city break with Hannah!”
“We (and more importantly - our dog) are very happy with Leda. It's our fourth time with her, we are very confident in Leda, she is extremely reliable and attentive. Have experienced 0 issues.”
“Silvia was excellent and very responsive. She took a really good care of Leshy and I could see from photos how happy he was. Her dog being the same age and same energy as Leshy was a cherry on top and they seemed to have a lot of fun. I would recommend Silvia and definitely go back to her again in the future.”
“Newton & Jia were excellent dog minders for our Westie! We were lucky to get them so last minute and they took great care of her with plenty of walks and cuddles and updates throughout the weekend. Would definitely recommend and will re-book in the future.”
“Both were great, clearly love dogs and know what is needed to take care of a puppy properly! They did a couple of drop ins and had my puppy overnight, I got lots of updates and photos from them Would recommend!”
“I was afraid that Lolli wouldn't want to come back home after being so happy and spoiled 😍😍 I had nothing to worry about leaving her with Imogen, she's definitely will be back! Thank you so much!”
“I’m so grateful to have found Michael. My booking was very short notice but he was so lovely and reassuring as it was the first time I’d left the pup with someone I didn’t know. I got updates which put my mind at ease and Michael reassured me as it was clear that I was quite nervous!! Sue is booked in with Michael again in a few days and I’m going to be able to relax knowing he’s in such great hands! Cannot recommend Michael highly enough!! See you in a few days and thank you so much!!!☺️”
“I am so glad I picked Lucy to look after my cat! It’s my first time finding a sitter for Porridge and so I was quite nervous, but Lucy was so helpful and understanding. She did such a great job of looking after a very high energy kitty and kept me updated daily with pictures and videos so I never had to worry. He came back very healthy, happy and purring. I highly recommend Lucy!”
“Maria was lovely & caring. Our dog had a lovely time with her. She sent loads of pictures and kept us updated about our dog. Would use her pet sitting services again in the future.”
About: Experience with various dog breed including Labrador husky and mixed breeds I have a rescue Labrador living with me and I focus on training behaviour adjustment and building trust through patient’s and routine care Pet care if it’s naturally into my daily routine I am flexible with mornings afternoons and evenings and I ensure consistent time for walks feeding play and check-in so pets feel comfortable and cared for I prioritise safety routine and a calm environment. I follow the owners instructions closely maintain secure handling during walks and ensure pets are supervised comfortable and never left in unsafe situations. I focus on building trust gradually with each animal.
About: I have had dogs my whole life, from when I was born until now (aged 29) and would class myself as a firm dog lover! Dogs naturally pick up energy and I am always making new dog friends. Ever since I moved from my family home 4 years ago, I miss smudge everyday. Dog sitting gives me the feeling that I am home again and able to cuddle, play, feed, walk and chill with a furry companion. Sitting practicality: Me and my partner (who is also a dog lover), live in Salford right near Peel Park - a perfect dog walking spot for your loved baby. We can cater to any specific dog diets or ability needs and have experience with family dogs, friends, neighbours and online enquiries of dog sitting for various dogs from Shih tzu puppies, poodles, French bulldogs to Labradors and more. Our flat is a safe, warm and clean environment for your beloved pet. We will ensure any brief is met and we are happy to meet for a chat prior to agreement of sitting your dog if required. As I am freelance and my work is mainly remote, I offer a flexible schedule to my own timings - meaning whenever your doggy would need a walk, feed, play, or more I can work around to make this happen. The weekends are mostly free and there is both myself & my partner available so two dog sitters and schedules for the price of 1! Living in a dog friendly building in Manchester provides benefits as there is always dogs out on the green if your dog is friendly. If your doggy is more antisocial we can take them on a more secluded walking area or green. We have ensured safety measures, there is no balcony in our apartment so no risks there. We are stocked with dog treats, puppy pads, water / food bowls, toys and more to ensure your baby has the best say! We have even asked the owners to send voicenotes before so that we can play them if your dog does feel uncomfortable at any time.
“We've had the fortune of having Hannah care for Lily several times now and I can honestly say that she provides a home from home. Lily loves the time she gets to spend with Hannah and Ruby which gives us great peace of mind. We look forward to the regular 'Pup-dates' and hearing all about their adventures. Thanks Hannah, you're a real gem! x”
“Cody was really happy to spend time with her. I got pictures and videos everything and I was really impressed of how they connected. Thanks for helping me sit Cody and making him feel comfortable in your home. Your help is greatly appreciated!”
About: I have been a dog owner for the last 15 years and my future goal is to own a Dog Day Care Business. In that time I have been the go to dog sitter for friends and family! I have also worked in animals sanctuaries where I cared for the animals health and wellbeing. I am very fortunate to have recently become a Certified Dog Trainer, and appreciate everything that I have learnt to improve my skills and experience with dogs. I work full-time and can work from home twice a week on Mondays-Thursdays! Weekends are doable with a little notice. I live within the city centre and am only a short distance away from transport links so travel to you should be easy! I have a large dog friendly apartment with my partner for when your pet wants to relax. I live close to many nice parks and amenities for when your pooch needs a walk.

“Phoebe took great care of my cat and sent me photos and videos from each visit so I never felt too far away! Cat was happy, well-fed and stress-free when I got home :)”
“So glad we found Susanna on here. We will always come back to her next time we need a cat sitter. She is amazing! Absolute life saver, always responds so quickly and great at what she does, thank you so much ❤️”
“life continued as normal for Mano during our two week trip and we came back to a totally contented cat who really didn’t seem to have missed us at all. This may not sound much like a glowing review but it really is - for our attention craving cat it says a lot about how much time and care Heidi brings. Heidi took the time to make sure she knew our (Mano’s) expectations, met them (and some - she has never been so well groomed!) and kept us up to date with photos and videos. We couldn’t be happier. Mano couldn’t be happier. And we think Heidi enjoyed some cuddles too!”
“I can not recommend this lady enough she looked after my 2 cats so well and they absolutely fell in love with her. She kept in touch everyday and sent photos making me feel at ease. Definitely 5 stars 🌟 and I will be using her in the future.”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals in a pet loving home and have experience looking after a variety of pets. I have loved many dogs, cats, birds and bunnies as members of the family. If you have pets other than dogs in the household that could also use some care or company during the day I'm also available to drop-in on them. Feel free to message me with any questions or queries or for a quote. I have previously completed a CPD certified course in Emergency First Aid for Dogs and other small animals. This certificate and training were updated as of November 2023. I took a break from professional pet care for a number of years to care for my parents and am so excited to get started again and get to know all of the lovely pets around the city. At home I have a 8 year old Chihuahua called Maxi. I understand how important it is to leave your dog in the care of someone you can trust, so I'd be happy to arrange a free meet and greet/trial walk before your first booking, where we can also further discuss you and your furry friend's individual needs. I am offering dog walks/drop ins part time around my training as a circus artist. I specialised in juggling at the National Centre for Circus Arts. After completing my degree in 2020 I can say I am extremely competent at fetch! Previous to this I was a full time dog walker. I keep my calendar up to date so you always be able to see far in advance any unavailable days. I will of course keep you informed of upcoming availability if you decide to book regularly. I only walk dogs from the same household. I believe this offers the best experience for dogs in terms of individual attention and enrichment, in addition to safety.
About: I have grown up around cats, with my parents having cats before I was born. There has not been a single day in my 31 years of life that I haven’t been around cats. I have adopted two cats of my own previously as a single woman, including a poorly cat who required a special diet and regular administration of medication. Happy to clean a cat tray, the smell of cat pee and poop doesn’t scare me!
“Elizabeth did a great job taking care of our 2 junior cats for a week, especially as they did cause a bit of a mess sometimes so we really appreciate how she handled this. Lots of great pictures and good communication overall. Most importantly, our fur babies had much needed play time and attention which made us feel like they were taken care of and could handle the rest of the day on their own. Would recommend. :)”
“Emily was fantastic! She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She was so loving and attentive to our cat, Lola, and we came home to a happy, relaxed cat :). ”
“Joanna is amazing and our cats absolutely love her! She takes brilliant care of them and we trust her so much. She always send us plenty of pictures and feedback. Our cats are always so excited to see her! Thanks a lot for your dedication and care, Joanna!”
“Esraa took great care of my cat Samy while I was away. She kept me updated and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I came back to a happy, relaxed cat, which really says it all. I would definitely trust her to watch him again.”
“We had Molly cat sit our lady Mallorie for two weekends in a row. She was great at sending over pictures and updating us. Mallorie really warmed to Molly quickly as she’s not great with strangers. I felt happy knowing Molly will be round to see her!”
“Sarah was very attentive and curious about Yvie and was in communication throughout my short trip away. Every instruction was followed and Yvie seemed to take to her from day 1. Super friendly and always responsive, I would highly recommend Sarah for your dog or cat. Thanks again!”
“Saffron and George are fantastic, really made our cat feel loved and calm while we were away on holiday. They provided plenty of updates and pictures, and followed our instructions to the letter. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone!”

“Jamie took excellent care of Wilma. His dog Carlton is very friendly and Wilma had a great time with him. Jamie was easy to communicate with and I'd definitely book him again.”
“Jyothi and his family were really nice and took really good care of Simba. Unfortunately Simba has fallen ill recently and appetite isn't great but Jyothi ensured he tried his best to get Simba eating. Regular updates with photos which definitely put my mind at ease esp when my baby isn't 100%. Can't thank you enough for being so caring and understanding. Highly recommended ?”
“Valeria is an amazing dog sitter. Really responsive to my messages right from the start. Sent updates & photo's of my dog throughout the day. I will definitely be using her again to take such good care of my girl.”
“Samuel has been fantastic with Wallace. He is kind, conscientious and professional, and uses his knowledge and experience to provide an elevated level of care. We would trust him in a heartbeat and hope that Wallace can enjoy more fun days with Samuel soon!”
“Maggie loved her time with Hannah, she even kept looking back for her on our walk home! She answered any messages quickly and sent some updates during the day. Couldn’t ask for a better first experience using Rover.”
“Darcy was wonderful. Easy to book and made the drop off and pick up really convenient for me. Milo was well looked after and seemed happy as can be coming back from his walks with Darcy. Lots of care and attention I will definitely book Darcy again next time I'm working in the area. And highly recommend her.”
“Lockheed had a fabulous day thanks to Nilan! From the moment Lockheed met him, he trusted Nilan completely and the updates from Nilan with photos were great as Lockheed clearly felt at home. Thankyou so much for taking care of Lockheed; I can wholeheartedly recommend!”
“Leda was awesome with Indi. She paid attention to everything we needed and kept me updated all through the stay. Indi had an awesome time and look forward to booking again. 🐶”
“Chloe was brill! She took time to do a meet and greet with Lily before the appointment, helping Lily to feel less nervous on the day. Lily is high energy and has separation anxiety, so she's a bit of a handful, but Chloe looked after her fabulously, giving her lots of love and scritches and helping her to stay calm. Flexible, chill, and fab communication. 100% recommend!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life and have been lucky enough to own family pets throughout my childhood, through until present day. We’ve always had labradors but I love and have cared for all breeds, big and small! I am a dog lover through and through and since moving away from home, have seriously been craving some dog exposure. My boyfriend and I would LOVE to care for your fur babies. Our days in the office vary week on week, so please feel free to reach out and I’ll keep you informed! Generally, one of us is home throughout the day so your furry friend will have company throughout their visit.

I grew up in a household filled with small animals and have over 17+ years of experience caring for a wide range of pets, including cats, dogs, rabbits, parrots, lizards, hamsters, fish, and turtles. I’ve had the joy of looking after all sorts of animals. With hands-on experience caring for pets with different personalities, I understand their individual needs and how to help them feel safe, loved, and relaxed.

“Zara has been an absolute god send for us. At short notice after our previous dog walker let us down she has managed to fit Vera (our little but very boisterous pug) into her routine. Zara walks Vera three times per week, is always on time, communicates with us frequently and is confident and professional in her interactions. We have complete trust to let Zara into our home and to look after Vera. We would highly recommend her services and couldn’t have hoped for a better person to look after Vera. 5 stars all the way.”
“We booked with Carlin for a walk with our young puppy and he was very communicative throughout the process, attuned to the puppy’s attitude and made sure he had multiple toilet stops. Everything we needed while we were out for a few hours. Carlin’s care was top notch.”
About: I have been a devoted pet lover from a young age, growing up with two dogs — a Maltese and a Yorkshire Terrier — which gave me a deep understanding of canine behaviour and needs. I have also been a cat owner since 2023, caring for two beautiful cats, a Ragdoll and a Golden British Shorthair.

I provide care exclusively in your own home, which means your pet stays in a familiar and stress-free environment with all their favourite toys, bedding and routines. I treat every pet as my own, with the same love and attention I give to my two cats. I will keep all doors and windows secure, follow any specific instructions you leave, and send regular photo and video updates throughout the day so you always know your pet is happy and safe.
About: I have several years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Growing up, I had my own dog, a poodle, which taught me the responsibilities of daily pet care such as feeding, walking, grooming, and giving them the attention and exercise they need. Currently, I have two cats at home, so I am very familiar with their routines, including feeding, litter box cleaning, grooming, and playtime. Caring for my own pets has helped me understand how important patience, consistency, and a calm environment are for animals. In addition, I have experience looking after cats and dogs through another pet-sitting app, where I provided reliable care through drop-in visits and walks. I always focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my current routine as I am currently taking a career break, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available throughout the day for drop-in visits and dog walks, ensuring pets receive the attention, care, and consistency they need. With the extra time in my schedule, I am able to plan visits carefully and make sure each pet is looked after properly without rushing. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment for every pet I care for. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are in reliable and responsible hands. I offer drop-in visits and dog walking services, ensuring pets receive proper care, attention, and companionship while their owners are away. I do not provide boarding services. I also have prior experience caring for both cats and dogs through another pet-sitting app, which has helped me build strong skills in understanding different pet personalities and maintaining their routines in a comfortable and secure environment.

“Emma is a great carer. We've worked together on Carbee's regular weekly walkie and she also stayed in our flat to look after Carbee while we are away for weekend. Emma has been very trustable, patient and with great communication! Definitely recommend her services”
“Robert and our standard schnauzer Oscar seem to be developing a great relationship since he started walking him. Oscar is so excited when he comes round to collect him that I struggle to put his lead on him. Always punctual and with a smile on his face even when it’s raining, I can highly recommend Robert and so can Oscar! Loving all the photos from the walk too…”

Happy to send a video of the space or do a meeting so you can see if it’s a space you’re happy with!
“Hannah was brilliantly and very friendly. She met both myself and my pup before we scheduled a walk so that she could familiarise herself with Aspen. She was very attentive to Aspen's needs and made sure she used the same command words that we use. Hannah was really flexible about timings as I had to change our time last minute. Hannah came and picked Aspen up and dropped him home after. She was due to be gone for 30mins but took him for slightly longer which was so helpful. I would definitely use Hannah again and would 100% recommend her to my friends!”

“Hannah was absolutely brilliant! She took great care of Pablo and managed to get him very well exercised and knackered every day which is no easy feat with his energy levels! Hannah managed to get Pablo settled very quickly and sent us plenty of updates which put us at ease too. I couldn’t recommend her enough and we will definitely be booking again, Pablo is very much looking forward for another city break with Hannah!”
“Silvia was excellent and very responsive. She took a really good care of Leshy and I could see from photos how happy he was. Her dog being the same age and same energy as Leshy was a cherry on top and they seemed to have a lot of fun. I would recommend Silvia and definitely go back to her again in the future.”
“I’m so grateful to have found Michael. My booking was very short notice but he was so lovely and reassuring as it was the first time I’d left the pup with someone I didn’t know. I got updates which put my mind at ease and Michael reassured me as it was clear that I was quite nervous!! Sue is booked in with Michael again in a few days and I’m going to be able to relax knowing he’s in such great hands! Cannot recommend Michael highly enough!! See you in a few days and thank you so much!!!☺️”

Lily loves the time she gets to spend with Hannah and Ruby which gives us great peace of mind. We look forward to the regular 'Pup-dates' and hearing all about their adventures. Thanks Hannah, you're a real gem! x”
About: I have been a dog owner for the last 15 years and my future goal is to own a Dog Day Care Business. In that time I have been the go to dog sitter for friends and family! I have also worked in animals sanctuaries where I cared for the animals health and wellbeing. I am very fortunate to have recently become a Certified Dog Trainer, and appreciate everything that I have learnt to improve my skills and experience with dogs. I work full-time and can work from home twice a week on Mondays-Thursdays! Weekends are doable with a little notice. I live within the city centre and am only a short distance away from transport links so travel to you should be easy! I have a large dog friendly apartment with my partner for when your pet wants to relax. I live close to many nice parks and amenities for when your pooch needs a walk.
“Xinjie and her partner looked after Yoshi for about 3 weeks whilst we were away and they took amazing care of him. Multiple walks, trips to the park, making sure he’s cleaned and brushed. Playing with him loads. I was sent many cute videos and photos and updates on him. I felt so reassured he was being looked after so so well whilst we were away. Honestly you can tell how much love they put into him. Thank you so so much! 10/10”
“Our 2 girls stayed with Jazmine over the Xmas break while we attended a wedding. The girls have only ever stayed with family so we were a little nervous leaving them but they absolutely loved their stay and Jazmine looked after them like they were part of her family. I would highly recommend Jazmine and will be calling on her again in the future.”
“Lauren has been amazing with Havoc (the dog!!) she's been really patient with us working things out and had given her the little holiday she deserves while we were away. Lots of love and walks. Lots of consideration about the weather and getting adventures in before the heat of the day. And lots of reassuring photos showing her having a fantastic time. The best review I can give is Havoc was clearly happy with her and we'll definitely be using Lauren again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so being around them has always felt natural to me. During my four years at university, I regularly walked and looked after dogs of all breeds, sizes and personalities. I am now living alone in Manchester and my family dogs aren’t so close by anymore, so I would love to look after your pups! When living in London, I worked for London Walking Paws, where I picked dogs up from their homes and cared for them and walked them throughout the day. I often walked up to four dogs at once, both on and off lead. We cared for dogs of all ages, so I am experienced in training puppies from as young as 9 weeks, as well as caring appropriately for senior dogs and making them feel comfortable and happy. I absolutely love being around dogs - they make me feel calm, and I value my time around them. I’m comfortable with every breed and size. I’m reliable, trustworthy, and will always care for your dog as if they were my own. I am a freelance musician, so am extremely flexible and can often adjust my schedule to suit your needs. I am entering a slightly quieter work period over summer so will have more time for boarding / overnight stays. I tend to be busier on evenings between Thursday and Sunday, but my schedule differs each week. I live in a secure, pet friendly apartment block on my own in a one bedroom flat, so your dog will have all my attention and be safe in my home! I have a big space, with lots of room for playing as well as relaxing. We have a small outdoor terrace, as well as immediate access to parks and secure walks. I also have a car, and love to take the dogs I care for out to the countryside for longer and more vast walks.

“Gabriella & Shaun were fantastic! Very flexible, patient and communicative. We were so grateful for the excellent care they gave our pups and will absolutely request them again when we’re in Manchester ❤️”
“The most amazing sitter. Felt super safe leaving Carlos with her. Lots of updates and super easy going on drop off / pick up times. He looked like he had a great time and has come home super calm. Would definitely rebook ❤️”
“Dalila was absolutely fantastic, she clearly cares about your pet and was very attentive in keeping me up-to-date with videos and pictures. Very flexible, very kind and very easy to talk to . I would recommend this service to anyone.”
“I would highly recommend Josie and Connor if you want someone who will love your dog like their own. They looked after our dog Billy for 2 weeks when we went on holiday. They were calm and caring and from the moment we met them we were confident that he would be in safe hands. The regular photos and updates were great too. We will definitely book again! Thank you!”
“Jyothi was very pleasant and welcoming with Ralph. He settled instantly. I had regular photos and videos sent over the 24 hrs that he was there. Felt comfortable leaving Ralph with Jyothi Would recommend 😊”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my Bob received! From the very beginning, communication was clear and reassuring, and it was obvious Andria genuinely loves animals. I got regular updates, photos that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My Bob came back happy and clearly well cared for. Bob is booked in again with Andria in a few weeks time.”
