“Bruna looked after our puppy Luna for 11 nights. We did an initial meet and greet and straight away knew Luna would be well cared for with Bruna and her family. We received daily updates and photos whilst we were away and felt very reassured. Luna is only a young puppy and high energy but Bruna continued with our routine and training methods whilst we were away. I would definitely use Bruna again to look after our dog and would recommend her to any dog owners. X”
“This was our second time using Kerry and Nick, and we highly recommend them. They looked after Marlow and Bonnie for three nights and kept us updated throughout, treating them as if they were their own. Bonnie felt at home straight away, and although Marlow had never stayed with anyone other than us before, he settled in quickly and seemed completely comfortable. Thanks again 😊”
About: I am an avid outdoors person who loves taking their dog on long walks and hikes. I have looked after dogs of all sizes and personalities and would love the opportunity to look after yours too. I will be free all day on Wednesdays with no fuss of early drop offs or lates pick ups and can occasionally do the odd Saturday. I have a 4 year old cocker spaniel is fantastic with all dogs and loves a play mate. We have a good sized fenced garden, consisting mainly of grass and free from harmful plants.
“Our dog ‘Om’ stayed with Sophia for two days with an overnight and having just collected him he seems like he’s had a lovely weekend. Sofia kindly kept me updated throughout with messages and pictures. Her dog Henri, much bigger than Om, is so friendly and the two of them got on perfectly well. Thank you Sophia! We’ll definitely be looking for you to look after him again in the future.”
“From the offset, I knew our dog, Teddy, was going to be happy with Rebecca whilst we were on holiday. On our meet and greet, he ran straight into her house with no hesitation and had a little play in the garden etc. Rebecca was great at sending regular updates, with photos and videos, but at the same time didn’t bombard us every day. We’ll definitely send Ted to Rebecca again, he’s been really calm and settled since we got back, something which usually takes him several days to do😊”
“Rachel was great with Delphi. Giving her the perfect balance of activity and snuggles. Kept us updated regularly with pics and vids. We felt at ease leaving Delphi with Rachel and was a massive relief to know Delphi was being well looked after whilst we moved house! Thanks Rachel:)”
“First time using a dog boarder and Sharon was absolutely fantastic with our two dogs, Seren and Freya. We received constant updates and photos/ videos throughout their stay and would definitely book again! Thank you so much!!”
“Bianca is a great host and I'll definitely be using her again. Ahead of Senna"s stay and during his stay Bianca"s communication was first class, with picture updates and queries. I was fully able to enjoy my holiday knowing Senna was enjoying his.”
“Penny had a lovely weeks stay with Sarah and Kevin and was made to feel very welcome in their home, greeted on arrival by a box of toys to choose from and treats on hand😊 She had daily walks and the chance to follow her favourite hobby of squirrel watching! I received daily updates and photos, happy dog, happy owner! Thank you both, hope to see you again next holiday!😊”
“Winnie had the best time with Rachel, loved the constant updates on her stay. I want to thank you so much for looking after her especially in such high temperatures. She looked like she had a lovely time and if you’ll have her I’m sure she would love to stay with you again :) ❤️”
“Alex is absolutely fab! My little doggie Sam loved his stay and has come home clean, tired and had a wonderful time at Alex’s house. Alex provided regular pupdates and he instantly put my mind at ease as it was the first time leaving my doggie, as he’s a puppy. Will definitely be booking with Alex again 💜”
“Our dog Rory had the best time with Meghan. She regularly sent updates and photographs to us while we were away. Meghan eased all our anxieties about leaving Rory for the first time, but he received the best care and attention. Will definitely be using Meghan again in the future ?”
“Lola had a lovely time with Karolina and her family. They were welcoming and clearly love dogs. Very happy to leave her with them again. Karolina sent pictures and updates during her stay and she was very well looked after.”
“Laura and Dec were amazing with our 2 cockapoos. It was our first time leaving them with someone other than family, and they made us feel so relaxed. They sent so many pictures and updates whilst we were away which we loved, and they made Rufus’ 1st birthday special as well! The boys seemed happy and relaxed, we couldn’t have asked for more! We would absolutely recommend Laura and Dec to anyone looking for a home from home for their dogs. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Ralph and Rufus xxx”
“Linus had a great 11 night stay with Justyna. He had obviously been very well looked after and was very happy and settled when I went to collect him. Justyna's house is clean, tidy and secure and she made Linus feel very at home. I highly recommend Justyna to look after your dog.”
“Ian and his family looked after our boy Ted while we were away for 6 nights and I honestly can't recommend them enough. Ted was treated as part of the family and has been taken such good care of. Ian kept us updated throughout which really gave us peace of mind. Ted has thoroughly enjoyed his time with Ian and it's clear to see they have developed a great bond. We will definitely be booking again 😊”
“Annabelle and her partner took such loving care of Boomer. Here’s a warmer rewrite that highlights **Anabelle as a warm person**: Annabelle and her partner took really good care of Boomer. I received updates every day and it was wonderful to see him so relaxed and comfortable in their home. Annabelle is such a warm and genuine person and we wouldn’t hesitate to board Boomer with her again.”
“The best sitters we’ve used. It’s clear Jenna and her lovely daughter took the best care of Ted. Super friendly, lovely communication and it looks like he had a great time. Would happily recommend but don’t want them to be so popular they can’t look after Ted again!”

“Couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after our cat Willow. It was the first time we have left Willow for a week & was very anxious leaving her for so long with someone she didnt know but Willow took to Marta straight putting our mind at ease & will definitely be calling on Marta again when we need :)”
“Absolutely fantastic care from Natalie, she came every day for one week to feed and check on my 3 cats. I received full updates and images/video each day. Will definitely use again x”
About: I have been a passionate cat lover and carer since I was 11 years old. Over the years, neighbours, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, and play with their beloved cats while they are away. I understand that cats are independent yet sensitive creatures who thrive on routine and comfort in their own home. Whether your feline friend is highly energetic and loves playtime, or quiet and needs a patient, gentle companion to sit with them, I am here to provide tailored care. Living in Warrington, I am available for reliable home visits to ensure your kitty’s food, water, and litter trays are perfectly looked after, combined with plenty of love and attention!
“Nathan was great. He understood what the cats needed and treated them both with a different approach. He communicated well before the booking and came to meet us face-to-face first to see if we were happy to go ahead. He gave us regular updates on what was happening and did everything perfectly. Would definitely book him again!”
“Very happy to have found Arina to check in on Hector and Klaus, everything went well and they seemed to love her, even though they can be very shy cats when they meet new people”
“She was absolutely wonderful with our kittens and really went above and beyond. She brought her partner Jason along with my permission, which was very thoughtful of her to check, and he was just as lovely with the boys. They both clearly care a lot about the kittens. They even brought a few toys for them and kindly left them for me, which was such a thoughtful gesture. They also exceeded expectations when it came to keeping everything clean and tidy. I would happily book them again in the future 🐾”
“Rhiannon was great! Super friendly and reliable! Took very good care of my cat and stayed in communication the entire time. My cat seemed relaxed and well taken care of when I came home. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Rachel was amazing I would highly recommend! This was my first time as a pet owner rather than being a sitter myself so I was slightly anxious! But Rachel sent me lots of updates, photos and videos which really put my mind at rest…I wouldn’t hesitate to book Rachel in the future 😊”
About: I have been able to share my home with 5 cats over the years at varying stages, all very different in temperant. I have also volunteered with the RSPCA which involved some cat socilastion. I do have two dogs now but my love for any animal is equal having had guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, hamsters. My experience with cats is largely based on my own experience.
“I'm really thankful for Chun service he provided. MY TIMY and TAMY love him. Very responsible and careful person. Happy that we meet him. I recommend him with a absolutly trust, Chun you are wonderful, Thank you so much for your attention to my kittens and the calm you give us in our 2 weeks holiday 🥰 Definitely we will contact you again next time!”
“100% recommended service, very reliable and informative you have been. You have done everything what I was asking for and I am so grateful for that ? Thank you sooo much Meghan for looking after my pets ??”
“We booked Gill for a house sitting for our 2 babies while we had a holiday away from them to recharge. Gill updated us every single day with photos of our babies. It was really reassuring and we could enjoy our holiday. Gill even cleaned our house, it was a big relief we didn't have to do it on arrival. Highly recommend her and definitely will use her again. Thanks 👍🙏”
“Absolutely could not recommend Ellie enough! Needed a sitter last minute and Ellie was really quick to respond and organise a visit at short notice. Ellie was amazing with Beans, she kept in touch with regular updates and I came back to a very happy cat and a spotless house. She’s kind, polite, professional, reliable, experienced, knowledgable and clearly cares about what she does. I’ve used Ellie numerous times now and she’s never let me down”

“This was my dog's first time at doggy-daycare so we weren't too sure how he would react. However, thanks to Sharon's warm welcome and tlc, he had a lovely day. Have already booked for another stay.”
“Jasmyne took great care of Sidney and provided lots of photo updates - we could see how happy he was with Jasmyne, playing, relaxing and going on lovely walks! He came home very content having been well looked after and given lots of affection.”
“Rudy spent the day with Rebecca and had a lovely time! We were given lots of updates and sent lots of photos of Rudy settled, on a walk and having lots of cuddles. Thank you so much, we would definitely recommend!”
“Rachel is just amazing, she met us on one of the most awful rainy windy days to meet and walk Norman before looking after him. Rachel is just a really lovely kind person and Norman took to her straight away and loved his stay. The right amount of feedback to reassure us that Normie was fine and enjoying his stay. Thank you so much Rachel we all really appreciated your care and kindness”
About: It’s safe to say that I absolutely love dogs, every breed, every size, and every personality. From tiny Chihuahuas to big German Shepherds, I truly believe every dog is unique and reflects something special about the people who love them. That’s what makes them so fun, lovable, and rewarding to be around. Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and spending time with them genuinely brings me happiness. I’ve been surrounded by dogs for most of my life and have always felt a natural connection with animals. The most special bond I’ve ever had was with a Dalmatian named Happy, whom I helped raise together with a close friend in Germany (I’m blonde in the photos). Being involved in his daily care taught me how to balance love, patience, and gentle discipline — building trust while encouraging good behaviour. Over the years, I’ve also cared for many dogs belonging to friends, neighbours, and family. A lot of the dogs you see in my photos are ones I’ve regularly looked after and built strong bonds with. From energetic puppies to older, more relaxed dogs, I always adapt my approach to suit each dog’s individual personality and needs. I now live in England with my partner, Oliver, who shares my love for animals. We have a cosy home with a fenced patio where dogs can safely relax, play, and feel comfortable. Oliver also grew up with dogs (especially Buddy the Goldie!) and is just as caring and attentive. Together, we create a calm, loving environment where pets feel completely at home. Because I have a flexible work routine and can organise my time freely, pet care fits very naturally into my everyday life. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, company, affection, and consistency throughout the day — whether for boarding, walks, daycare, or drop-in visits. I truly enjoy long walks, peaceful routines, and creating a safe and happy space for every dog in my care. I also have experience with other animals, including cats and birds, as I grew up around parrots through my Brazilian background. For me, pet sitting is much more than just a job, it’s something I genuinely love. You can trust that your pet will be treated with kindness, patience, and care, just like I treated my biggest love, Happy 🖤🤍 Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, as I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to fully adapt my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. During the week, I can take them out for a walk early in the morning, again in the evening, and also fit in walks, playtime, or quick trips outside throughout the day. Because I’m working from home, I’m always nearby to give them attention, company, and care whenever they need it. I also have the flexibility to take breaks when it suits the dog’s routine, whether that’s heading out for a walk, spending time playing, or simply giving them some affection and reassurance. This means they’re rarely alone and always well looked after. I live in a house with a fenced patio, so your dog can safely enjoy outdoor time whenever they like. Overall, my lifestyle allows me to provide a consistent, attentive, and loving environment throughout the day. When I care for pets in my own home or in the owner’s home, I always make sure the environment is safe and free from anything they could accidentally get into. I keep a close eye on them at all times and give them my full attention, creating a calm and relaxed atmosphere where they can feel comfortable and secure. Additional information: I’d also like to mention that my partner has a small fish tank at home with a few tiny fish (similar to goldfish, I don’t know the species). These do not have any interaction with visiting pets and usually go completely unnoticed. If a dog were ever to show interest or feel unsettled by it, the fish tank or fish can easily be moved to another room, as he has another fish tank in another room, to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I’m not involved in caring for the fish, my partner takes care of them, so they don’t play any role in the pet care I provide. For this reason, I haven’t listed them as pets on my profile, as they don’t affect the environment or the care of visiting animals in any way.
“Normally I’m very cagey about leaving my dog with someone I haven’t met before but from the momywe stepped thru Mo’s door we were made to feel so welcome. Paddy is normally very timid of new people but he loved it. Mo’s dogs were soooo friendly and Paddy had a gr8 time, I thoroughly recommend Mo for ur loved dog, s/he will be well loved while staying at Mo’s ?????”
“Sophie has now looked at Maggie a couple of times. She went out of her way to come and meet Mags as it was too hot to take her out and I get regular updates through the day. She seems settled very quickly and cloud is a lovely dog as a companion.”
About: I have always been around dogs, whether that be my family dogs or friends/colleagues. I do a lot of dog sitting for colleagues when they go away so they are able to stay in the comfort of their own home. My love for dogs is huge and you wouldn’t regret leaving them in my care. I do work full time but from home so am able to ensure someone will always be around to take care of your fur baby. I will be sure to follow any routine & rules you have regarding your pets and my priority will be keeping them safe and comfortable. I will ensure they receive as much exercise as they require by walks and lots of playtime.
“Aileen had a great day with Lauren and Jordan! Incredibly friendly people from the very first message and Lauren made Aileen feel at home from the second she walked in. I received regular updates through the day which put my mind at ease and it was great to see how settled she was.”
“Stefanie was amazing with our dog and you can easily tell how kind and genuine she is. Our dog spent the day with Stefanie and her family, and we could tell that she was very comfortable, calm, and happy to be with them. Stefanie regularly sent photos to ease our minds and keep us updated. We 100% recommend!”
“Alex was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! I had to come from London to Manchester for a family emergency and he was so so good with Milo. Literally the smoothest communications and fabulous updates with photos and videos! I’m super wary of where and who I send Milo to for day care but honestly Alex has been incredible. Can’t fault him at all and would recommend him to anyone I know. Thank you so much Alex! Milo had a fabulous time xxx”
“Kate has been very accommodating at short notice. Dixie is a bit nervous but she settled right in and loves her walks with Kate. I love seeing how happy Dixie is on the rover card at the end of the day. I can really relax knowing Dixie is being looked after as if it's her own dog.highly recommend”
“Rachel took excellent care of my girl Ruby. She showed a little of care from the start and provided plenty of updates throughout her stay. I would definitely recommend Rachel’s doggy daycare services.”
“Wesley was fantastic, clearly cares a lot about the dogs he looks after. Took my puppy out early before it got too hot, regular communication throughout the day and she clearly enjoyed herself. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again ☺️”

“We’re so lucky to have found Calum. He’s amazing with our dogs and they are more than a handful! They love him. Every walk is filled with energy, and our pups come back happy and tired, which is exactly what we need! His love for dogs is evident. He’s ALWAYS on time and is great a communicating when he will be unavailable and gives us plenty of prior notice. The updates and photos we receive after each walk are a wonderful bonus—it gives us peace of mind knowing our dogs are in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible dog walker, Calum is the best. Highly recommended!”
About: I have been a passionate dog lover and carer since I was 20 years old. Over the years, neighbours, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, walk, and play with their beloved pets. I have experience handling dogs of various sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies who need basic training support to gentle senior dogs who require patient, low-energy care. Living in Warrington, I know some great local walking routes and will always ensure your dog gets the right amount of exercise, mental stimulation, and, most importantly, love. I am reliable, highly responsible, and look forward to keeping your furry family members safe and happy! I am currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicatedly care for both dogs and cats! I am fully available for pet sitting and walks during weekends, and on weekdays I am free anytime after 2pm. Whether your dog needs an afternoon walk to burn off energy, or your cat requires a timely visit for feeding and litter tray cleaning, my schedule allows me to be reliable, punctual, and attentive to your pets' daily routines. Safety and building trust are my absolute priorities, whether I am looking after your pets in your home or out on a walk. For dogs, I always ensure they are securely leashed, kept safe around other animals, and perfectly controlled during our walks. For cats, I am highly mindful of indoor security, making sure doors and windows are safely shut, and I always respect their personal space and boundaries. I am experienced in reading pet body language and will always send you regular photo and text updates during my visits or walks, so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your fur babies are safe and loved.
“Jasmyne has been a wonderful friend to our pooch! She collects our cocker spaniel Pickle and takes him out on adventures whenever we need help. She is flexible, communicative, reliable and also a brilliant photographer - I love seeing Pickles report card after their walks. We trust Jasmyne to use our key safe and let herself in and out. She is now our go-to and I couldn't recommend her more!”
“Absolutely brilliant service, Santo helped me with dog walking and dog sitting. He took great care of my 3 dogs. Highly recommended. Lovely guy, dogs are his passion and i absolutely trust him and an happy to recommend him to others. Very happy customer”

About: Hi! I’m Ellie, I’m 19 and currently saving up to travel around Australia. I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, so pet sitting is something I’m really excited to do! (i do cheaper when paying cash) My availability is the following: Monday - Tuesday : All Day/Night Wednesday : [00:00-17:00] [22:00-00:00] Thursday : [00:00-17:00] [22:00-00:00] Friday : [00:00-16:00] Saturday : [00:00-12:00] Sunday : [00:00-12:00] [22:00-00:00] I have my own gorgeous Border Collie called Myron. He’s super intelligent, full of energy, and needs lots of exercise, attention and mental stimulation every day. Because of him, I’m very used to caring for dogs that need more than just a quick walk and dinner, but would also love looking after pets who are low maintenance and need space! I love playing with pets, keeping them entertained, and making sure they’re happy. I also have an adopted cat who is naturally very nervous and anxious. When we first got him, he wouldn’t come anywhere near us, but over the years I’ve built up his trust by being patient and respecting his boundaries. One of his biggest milestones recently was finally choosing to sit on our laps (while still keeping a careful eye on everything going on!). Looking after him has taught me a lot about understanding anxious pets and letting them settle at their own pace. As part of my Animal Care course, I spent a year doing work experience at both an animal rescue centre and an equestrian riding centre. I learned how to carry out basic health checks, keep enclosures clean, feed and care for different animals, and make sure they were comfortable and well looked after.(this includes guinea pigs, bunnies, cats and kittens) I also gained experience looking after horses, including feeding, grooming and general stable duties. I also volunteered with a sea turtle conservation project in Kefalonia, which was an amazing experience. I helped relocate vulnerable nests when needed, carried out morning beach surveys, took part in beach cleans, and used red lights when guiding hatchlings to the sea to avoid disturbing them. It taught me a lot about caring for wildlife while respecting their natural behaviours. I’m a friendly, reliable, respectful and caring person, and I’d love to give your pets the same love, attention and care that I’d want for my own. Whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and nervous, or just love lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after while you’re away. PS - I am also consistent with cleaning and keeping places tidy. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily work around my shifts to make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. I typically work about 3 days a week. At home, my mum is the primary carer for my own pets, so I’m usually free to look after other pets without any issues. The only exception is if she’s away, as I’d need to stay home with my own animals. However, I’d still be happy to help with shorter visits, such as dog walks or toilet breaks. If your dog is friendly and you’d be happy for them to have some company, I could even bring my dog, Myron, along on walks / to your house so they can enjoy some social time together! Whenever I’m looking after someone’s pet, I always take the time to get to know them first so I can understand their personality, routine, and what makes them happy. Every pet is different, so I like to make sure their care is tailored to their individual needs. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities. My cat, Charlie, is quite anxious, so I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, gentle, and give him the space he needs to feel comfortable. My dog, Myron, is very intelligent and needs lots of mental stimulation as well as exercise, so I’m used to keeping him busy with training, games, and fun walks. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or at an owner’s home, I’ll stick to their usual routine as much as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and, of course, plenty of love and attention. My main goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.
About: Hey there I’m Meghan, and thank you so much for taking the time to view my profile! I am a fitness and nature enthusiast who absolutely loves all animals, especially dogs. However, having my own isn’t feasible due to work commitments. So until then, it would be an absolute pleasure for me to help care for yours! I used to have dogs of my own growing up and dedicated a lot of time training, walking and caring for them and they were just my absolute world. I also had cats and very much can accommodate caring for cats too! When you book with me I can assure you your dog(s) will be in great care. I love to plan either a long walk in the country side or a day of cuddles, or both - depending on their needs. I don’t like to take more than one separate booking at a time a time, as I prefer to give your dog(s) my full time and attention, and so that I can ensure your dog(s) are in a safe environment. Please don’t hesitate to give me a shout to you need my assistance, I can’t wait to meet your much loved pets! 😄 I am working full time Monday to Friday so I mainly offer weekend care, however, I can accommodate weekdays as working from home is an option for me. Just ask! :-) Once I know the booking is in, I’ll ensure I am free as I very much like to devote all my time and attention to your dog(s) so they have the most comfortable and positive experience. I will be sure to update you with how they’re doing throughout the stay and provide high spec photographs (using my fancy high tech digital camera sometimes!) For other peoples home I would like to do a meet and greet before hand so I can ensure I get all the details I need about how to care for your dog(s) and the same would apply for them coming to my place. You’re more than welcome to come to my place to see where your dog(s) would be staying. I have an enclosed small courtyard garden for them to come and go as they please safely. I totally understand it can be nerve wracking leaving your beloved dog(s) with someone new, so please ask for as much information as you need.
About: Hi there! We are an animal-loving family of four (with two children ages 11 and 9). We absolutely love animals but at the moment we do not have a pet of our own and we look forward to sharing our affection and attention with your fur baby! I had cats and dogs (and mice!) growing up and miss having them around the house. Our kids absolutely dote on animals so they won’t be short on attention and love! We live in Warrington in a comfortable house with plenty of space. I am at home during the working day and we live on a quiet cul-de-sac with a safe enclosed garden. There are plenty of green areas nearby for walks and exercise. We are looking forward to hosting your pets and getting to know them. I work from home full-time so will be here to give your dog company and plenty of loo breaks/exercise. My kids get home around 3.30 and LOVE seeing the dogs and having some fun with them. We will follow the same rules you have at home - whether dogs are allowed on furniture/upstairs etc. We have a secure garden so the dogs can spend plenty of time outside if that’s what they enjoy! We can accommodate up to 3 dogs at a time. If your dog is nervous around other dogs and you’re looking for an exclusive board this can be accommodated at a higher rate per night - please ask for details.
About: Having had dogs all my life I am most content snuggled up on the couch with my fur baby! I used to work away a lot and know how hard it can be to find a stable caring environment to leave your fur baby with. I offer a home from home environment for your beloved pet and guarantee lots of walks and cuddles! My own dog Tilly loves company and would be a great companion during your fur baby’s stay! I provide all the home comforts to ensure your pet doesn’t get too home sick!! I have been looking after dogs all my life and love nothing better than walking down the transpennine way which is situated at the bottom of my road. I offer over night boarding for as short or as long as is needed Monday to Sunday.
About: I’ve taken care of friends dogs both over night and during the day on a regular basis. I also have a family dog who is 6 and lives with my parents but he stays a couple of times a week. I available most evenings and weekends. Me and my partner also work from home on alternate days so can be flexible to care in the week. I can accommodate needs but have a safe fenced back garden. There is also space out front and plenty of walks around the area that are safe for animals.
About: Thankyou for coming to my page:) where should I start....Well i've taken my dogs and my grandmas dog to puppy training classes in the past which I loved.I also used to walk my elderly neighbours dog in the past to help her. I've also organised a dog walk at lymm dam for all local dog walkers for the Romanian dogs charity which was a good turn out! I'm working full time but working from home 1 day a week but at the moment happy to have a dog any day as I'm currently working from home full time.I live over the road from a large park so i can take the dog out on my lunch and after work if needed.I help my grandma with feeding and walking her dog and I grew up with two labradors in the family. Really miss having a little companion but it's not quite the right time to be a 24.7 owner just yet! :( I have a fenced backyard with a secure locked gate and a clean home so I'm sure your dog will be very cosy and comfy :) Working from home Monday to Friday so i will be able to keep your fur baby entertained with treats and a few walks on my break and after the working day is done :) I'm available for boarding whenever! I work from home Mondays and Fridays :) Happy to take on a dog for a weekend, a week or 2 weeks or more. I would only tend to only leave them if it's out of my control ie office days such as Tuesday to Thursday but I'm home for 4pm I work 5 miles away . I have a fenced locked gate in my back yard so it's very secure.I also am happy to have a crate if they are crate trained I have the space.

About: I've had pets all my life, growing up with a huge English sheep dog as my first best friend. I now live in Woolston with my husband and children age 17, 14 and 6. We have a Shorkie dog, a British blue shorthair cat, Russian tortoise, hens and fish indoors and outdoors. Pets are life around here! I'm fully DBS checked as I work from home as a tutor. I can carry out home visits for all kinds of pets and am happy to board cats overnight (your cat will have its own space to be in during the day and night). I currently work from home 90% of the time so I'm around to take care of pets and provide them with plenty of attention. I hold a fully DBS check because I'm an online teacher. I can provide house visits once or twice daily and I also offer boarding for cats (separate area of the house to where my own cat lives).
About: I started Rover in Autumn 2023, but I’d had experience of looking after pets before. I’ve had 2 cats while I was living with my parents and both of them had kitties - a British cat and a Canadian Sphynx. Furthermore, I can say that I adore animals, and would love the opportunity to care for your pet while you’re away. Helping however I can. I enjoy spending time with animals and playing with them. Now we have a ragdoll kitten of our own who brings so much joy to our lives! If you have multiple animals at home, please feel free to message me to discuss reduced rates. At the moment, I’m mainly available in the evenings but can be on an odd weekday. Feel free to send me a request to find out my availability anyway :) I live in a house with my husband who also enjoys spending time with our little visitors whenever he has free time. We don’t have pets of our own, and have a fenced garden that is especially useful for escape artists. I watch all the pets carefully and make sure that they feel comfortable. We have parks, a little forest and other nice routes nearby for walking dogs. If I need to go to the owner’s home, I will strictly follow the given instructions.
About: As a compassionate pet sitter, I specialise in caring for furry family members of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to wise seniors and rescued animals. With a gentle touch and keen attention to detail, I provide personalised care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I prioritise the well-being and happiness of every animal entrusted to my care. Whether it's cuddle time with a senior cat, playtime with a lively puppy, or nurturing a recently rescued pet, I am dedicated to creating a safe and loving atmosphere where pets thrive. I am currently working full time but on a flexible schedule and able to work remotely all week with the ability to take long breaks during the day to allow time for walks etc. I have a secure back yard. I am aware of pets wants and needs and how to keep them safe inside and outside of the house I’m currently working full time from home so therefore I’m able to provide all day and night love and attention to your pets along with weekends Secure house and garden, ive got plenty of room on the sofa for your fur babies alongside ramps for older less mobile dogs to be safe
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and currently have 3 dogs of my own whom have very different personalities and energy levels. I hold a level 1 degree in animal management and I’ve directly worked on a farm with many different breeds and temperaments (including working dogs and guard dogs). This gave me experience in clear handling, reading body language early and making sure every dog feels understood and safe. All pets in my care get treated like my own consistency, kindness and respect. I can follow routines whatever they may be, and I’m extremely reliable and communicative. I’m comfortable with every breed and personality! I keep updates consistent so you always know how your pet is and what they are doing so your never wondering what’s happening. Looking after other people’s pets fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I already have structured daily routines so adding walks, drop-ins or care for your pets is easy for me to integrate without rushing or cutting corners. I stay consistent, organised and present so your pet gets calm, relaxed care every single time. My dogs get walked twice a day and have plenty of active playtime in the garden in between. I also use enrichment + puzzle games daily to give them mental stimulation, problem solving and calm focus so it’s not just physical exercise it’s balanced brain work to. When they aren’t in play or training they nap and decompress.
“From meeting Ellie and the very positive reaction from Roxy I knew I had made the right choice. Ellie is a lovely well mannered girl and you can tell she loves animals. Roxy loves her to bits and im happy going to work knowing Roxy will be well cared for. I recommend Ellie 100% for anyone needing walks or any care for their pet. Very happy”

“This was our second time using Kerry and Nick, and we highly recommend them. They looked after Marlow and Bonnie for three nights and kept us updated throughout, treating them as if they were their own. Bonnie felt at home straight away, and although Marlow had never stayed with anyone other than us before, he settled in quickly and seemed completely comfortable. Thanks again 😊”
About: I am an avid outdoors person who loves taking their dog on long walks and hikes. I have looked after dogs of all sizes and personalities and would love the opportunity to look after yours too. I will be free all day on Wednesdays with no fuss of early drop offs or lates pick ups and can occasionally do the odd Saturday. I have a 4 year old cocker spaniel is fantastic with all dogs and loves a play mate. We have a good sized fenced garden, consisting mainly of grass and free from harmful plants.
“From the offset, I knew our dog, Teddy, was going to be happy with Rebecca whilst we were on holiday. On our meet and greet, he ran straight into her house with no hesitation and had a little play in the garden etc. Rebecca was great at sending regular updates, with photos and videos, but at the same time didn’t bombard us every day. We’ll definitely send Ted to Rebecca again, he’s been really calm and settled since we got back, something which usually takes him several days to do😊”
“Rachel was great with Delphi. Giving her the perfect balance of activity and snuggles. Kept us updated regularly with pics and vids. We felt at ease leaving Delphi with Rachel and was a massive relief to know Delphi was being well looked after whilst we moved house! Thanks Rachel:)”
“First time using a dog boarder and Sharon was absolutely fantastic with our two dogs, Seren and Freya. We received constant updates and photos/ videos throughout their stay and would definitely book again! Thank you so much!!”
“Penny had a lovely weeks stay with Sarah and Kevin and was made to feel very welcome in their home, greeted on arrival by a box of toys to choose from and treats on hand😊 She had daily walks and the chance to follow her favourite hobby of squirrel watching! I received daily updates and photos, happy dog, happy owner! Thank you both, hope to see you again next holiday!😊”
“Alex is absolutely fab! My little doggie Sam loved his stay and has come home clean, tired and had a wonderful time at Alex’s house. Alex provided regular pupdates and he instantly put my mind at ease as it was the first time leaving my doggie, as he’s a puppy. Will definitely be booking with Alex again 💜”
“Our dog Rory had the best time with Meghan. She regularly sent updates and photographs to us while we were away. Meghan eased all our anxieties about leaving Rory for the first time, but he received the best care and attention. Will definitely be using Meghan again in the future ?”
“Ian and his family looked after our boy Ted while we were away for 6 nights and I honestly can't recommend them enough. Ted was treated as part of the family and has been taken such good care of. Ian kept us updated throughout which really gave us peace of mind. Ted has thoroughly enjoyed his time with Ian and it's clear to see they have developed a great bond. We will definitely be booking again 😊”
“Annabelle and her partner took such loving care of Boomer. Here’s a warmer rewrite that highlights **Anabelle as a warm person**: Annabelle and her partner took really good care of Boomer. I received updates every day and it was wonderful to see him so relaxed and comfortable in their home. Annabelle is such a warm and genuine person and we wouldn’t hesitate to board Boomer with her again.”
“Thank you Olivia! I was happy to receive so many pictures and updates during Yubyubs boarding days. As said, for me it was really good to see that she was laying down belly up in her bed. I could tell by her face that she was happy and taken care of.”
“Georgia and Matty took excellent care of Tobie and made his stay a perfect home from home. Great communication, friendly and reliable. Would definitely recommend and Tobie would love to stay again with them in the future. Thanks so much”
“Alfie had the best time! Very well cared for with lots of photos and updates throughout his sta, and got on really well with their dog. Will definitely use again, thanks Olivia!”
“Our Frenchie has had as good a time as us on holiday Great communication with Wes, did prior dog walks and stay over to ensure our Frenchie fitted in with Wes’s lovely pair of Frenchies. Wes kept us updated with pictures and allowed us to relax whilst on holiday. Would highly recommend Wes as a dog boarder and will definitely be using Wes again. 🐶”
“Harry and Ellie were absolutely amazing with my nervous rescue dog! They were so kind and patient, and it was clear from the start how much they genuinely care. They sent me regular updates and photos, which really reassured me while I was away. My dog felt comfortable and safe with them, and that means the world to me. They’re such a lovely couple and I’d wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for sitters who go above and beyond.”
“Divy had a great time during his boarding, plenty of cuddles and well looked after. Being a grayhound he has a couple of special needs which Karl and his wife were mindful of. I wholeheartedly recommend them as a sitter and am looking forward to leave Divy in their care next time we need to.”
