“Theo was amazing and made sure Enzo was well fed and kept happy during the visits. During each check in Theo made sure to send me pictures and a report of my cat to ensure I knew enzo was happy and enjoying the visit. This really put my mind at ease. Theo also fed my cat treats to strengthen their bond and build trust. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Theo again. Thank you ☺️”

I have a lot of availability over the next month so please get in contact if you need someone to pop in and give your pet some love!

“Cloe was absolutely superb. She was good with the dogs and visited first to introduce herself to them. I had only booked the 2 dogs as I thought the big one might be too much of a hand full, but she bonded with him straight away. I’ll definitely be using her services again and it’s reassuring to know I can leave all 3. Couldn’t be happier with Cloe and especially as it was at such short notice.”


“Jackie visited our 10 week old puppy today. Our dog was completely comfortable with Jackie on our meet and greet session so we knew he would be happy to see her. We had great communication prior to the session and gave us a lovely update once she had left. Overall very happy!”


About: Hi there! I'm Elizabeth, and I'm offering Dog Walking and Pet Sitting. I am a huge animal enthusiast, and have grown up alongside multiple types of animals.

This will not impact the amount of care given, as I will give 110% to all my doggie companions! I have loads of experience with other pets including: - Small mammals - Chickens & Ducks - Small farm animals - Invertebrates & most Reptiles I'm currently free most days including weekends and holidays. I try and work with times best suited for you, so please feel free to message about availability!

I have access to crates and safe areas for your furry friends aswell if they ever need some time alone. With dog walks and pet sitting, I am flexible to work alongside the owner to agree on which equipment will be used to make sure your animal is safe during their time with me. I do have access to my own leads and equipment, but am happy to use what is provided for me!

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.”


Alicia M.
“Alicia has over 10 years experience in caring for dogs, both small and large. She is a very empathetic individual who is aware of all the needs of dogs. She is happy doing both long and short walks and enrichment activities/playtime and is fully aware of the needs of dogs from socialising, to feeding times and cuddles. Alicia has been dog sitting for family dogs on multiple occasions and is a trustworthy and responsible person to care and look after dogs.”

Katy E.
“We were anxious about leaving our dog with a pet boarder for the first time but from the moment we met Katy we knew Luna would be fine. Clearly a dog lover herself they got on straight away, I received regular messages and photo updates and could see that she had settled in well and was enjoying her walks around the local wood. I will definately use Katy again, it’s a home from home environment with such a lovely caring dog lover I could not have asked for more, thanks Katy! X”


Katherine R.
“Katie was such a fantastic Pet sitter for Valerie! Despite Valarie's strength on the lead, she was still happy to walk her. It was comforting to know Valerie (a excitable puppy Labrador) was happy and well cared for, Valerie was able to settle quickly in Katie's care. We were incredibly grateful that Katie could look after Val and was able to easily contact eachother for updates or to answer any queries. This meant we was able to enjoy our time away, worry-free, knowing Val was in safe capable hands.”
