“I was initially very nervous about finding a dog sitter for Obi, but thankfully I came across Anna, who turned out to be everything we had hoped for—kind, patient, and clearly devoted to animals. She showed great perseverance and adaptability, especially when Obi was being a little stubborn, and always kept me informed if there were any questions or concerns. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Anna—she’s a fantastic dog sitter.”


“Theo has been an absolute godsend! We have two blind, diabetic Miniature Schnauzer’s and one is very nervy with new people but within 2 minutes of Theo arriving to meet them for the first time, Finn was in Theo’s lap! Theo has been totally reliable, punctual and great at keeping me posted with lots of pictures ❤️ Theo has also learnt how to inject the boys with their insulin and I had total confidence when they recently had a 2 night stay at Theo’s. I would totally recommend Theo to anyone needing help with their fur baby! Thank you Theo!!!! 🥰”


About: I have owned a dog all my adult life and come from a family of dog lovers, we have all different breeds and sizes which as a family we all care for together, we often meet up and socialise them together. Having had dogs myself I have cared for them from puppy to their final years. I have 2 Frenchies and a cat of my own, after recently being made redundant I decided to work for myself dog walking as I love Dogs, walking, and understand the stress this takes on working dog parents. I offer a free meet up for all new dogs and complete a questionnaire to understand your pets specific needs. I offer a variety of walking services all listed on my website.

“Scarlot walked my dog ghost and she is incredible with him. I had updates throughout and my dog had been the happiest he's ever been. I would reccomend anyone to have scarlot as she gives a very professional and loving experience”


About: I am currently studying veterinary medicine, meaning I have had experience in all animals from tiny mice to cows! I currently own cats and rabbits I have been pet sitting for over 5 years and have looked after dogs and cats, as well as small rodents and even an axolotl! So I am happy to look after anything! I also currently work at a rescue kennels, with rescued dogs from Romania, Bosnia and Greece. These dogs come in with all sorts of behaviours so I am used to all sorts! I am also happy to give medication to animals as I have clinical experience as well. My work schedule at the kennels is very flexible, so can change my hours as required. When at uni, the usually day is nine to five, with the ability to leave at lunch if needed. I may be more busy while on placement, but that depends on where I am and what my hours are, so that can be discussed. I will usually ask to come round while you are there to meet you and the animals. This way you can show me where everything is and I can meet your pet before coming into their space alone. I can then take a spare key or use a lock box if you have one

About: I've had pets my whole life, so I'm very experienced around all animals of different temperaments. I currently own one grumpy old lady rescue cat who I absolutely adore. I've looked after many of my friends' dogs, including feeding, walking, playing, enrichment, and basic training. I have experience administering medication if required and have plenty of time to give your fur baby lots of attention. I'm completely flexible with my time due to my current work circumstances, so I can work around your pet's routine. I'm free mornings, evenings and during the day as required. As an experienced pet owner, there's nothing I haven't experienced when it comes to animals. I will make sure your pet is well looked after and respect any household rules you wish your pet to adhere to. I have a car and I have a local vet in case of any emergencies that might happen. I will make sure to leave your home cleaner than when you left so have nothing to worry about when you return.

As a part time dog trainer, I do a session in the morning with my clients and late afternoon, so I am free all day to give your pooch a nice long walk to stretch their legs and play with some toys! I cannot provide care in my home. When in the owners home, I provide daily updates via texts and videos of how your dog is doing, almost like a holiday dairy for them to fill you in on their activities from today.

“Where to begin with Kyra? She’s currently training to become a Veterinarian, having several years of study under her belt, so you can tell she cares for the animals around her. Beyond that, I know from discussions with her that she has spent multiple years working at livery yards for horses, many years in kennel work - working to rehome dogs from countries like Bulgaria and Hungary. Finally, Kyra has a plethora of animals herself! So regardless of the species, she’s got you covered and is an excellent pet sitter! 20/10 would recommend to all - M”

Elizabeth M.
“Elizabeth McGuinness was kind enough to offer to look after our pet dog Jasper for 8 days over the summer holidays whilst we were on vacation abroad. She did a fantastic job and Jasper was evidently well looked after, as he hardly wanted to leave Elizabeth’s care on our return! She shows an obvious aptitude for animal care, and we were more than happy with the care and attention she gave to our dog. It can be very worrying leaving a pet for any length of time, but we were filled with confidence by her positive manner, demeanour and her natural affinity with animals. I can’t recommend Elizabeth highly enough for the course she is about to undertake, and I know she will flourish in this environment that she is obviously comfortable and content in.”
