2. Alexandra C.

“Alexandra has been superb 👌 our cats were so relaxed when we returned like we have never left the house. We were spoiled by pictures and videos each day we were away. I would highly recommend her services.”


3. Sofi and Dave N.

“We cannot recommend Sofi and Dave enough. They have taken exceptional care of our cat Rory and gave us peace of mind knowing he was in his own home, stress-feee, whilst we were away. Sofi and Dave were friendly, respectful and most importantly attentive to Rory’s needs. We loved the daily updates and photos! We will be booking them any time we go away again in the future and will highly recommend them to our friends and family. Thank you both so very much!”

“Sabrina has been helping with my dogs (two lovely Russell girls (11 & 13 now) for over 3 years. Sabrina has walks and feeds them and stays overnight, when needed. She’s lovely with them and they love seeing her too 😊 Sabrina has never let me down and kept me updated with photos and messages when she’s stayed overnight or for weekend's. Sabrina has grown up with dogs and is very good with them.”

“This is the second time we book her to look after Bagheera and we can’t wait for the third one!! We are very happy with Danielle, she has done a great job again with Bagheera and with us in terms of communication and follow up. 100% recommended!”


6. sandy g.

“Sandy is an absolute gem! 😻 She looked after my two cats, Coolcat and Lola, like they were her own. Coolcat usually throws a bit of a drama when I leave( I just comeback and she still is mad at me) , but Sandy worked her magic and kept her calm and comfy. 🛋️ And Lola? Obsessed. Sandy brought loads of new toys for them to try, and when Lola picked her favourite, Sandy let her keep it! 🧸❤️ Honestly, who does that?! The sweetest touch ever. She came by twice a day, gave me updates, and made being away so much easier. My cats were happy, my heart was full, and I’m already planning to book her again. 1000/10 would recommend! 🐾”


7. Polly N.

“Very friendly and consiensous young woman. Looked after Jasper very well and followed our instructions. Will definitely be using her again.”


8. Jamie D.

“Jamie was great! Really helpful in looking after my very anxious cat. I arranged for an additional visit beforehand, so that he was aware of exactly what was needed. He updated me after each visit with detailed and reassuring reports. I most certainly recommend Jamie and will definitely be asking for his help again in the future.”


9. Scarlett B.

“Scarlett is very patient and careful with my difficult cat Milo. She's very reliable and caring and he loves posing for photos for her updates! I would recommend her.”


10. Anastasija P.

“Anastasija was able to accommodate our request on a very short notice. She and her family were very welcoming and friendly. Her daughter is the cutest (and really educated on boundaries with new animals!). I would love to choose her as our sitter going forward! Morpheus was calm, warm and very well taken care of.”


11. Maisy B.
“My friend really helped me when I wasn't feeling well. She walked my dog for me, and I felt so thankful. She was really nice to my dog and made sure he was okay. My dog looked so happy after each walk, and that made me happy too. Thank you to my friend for being so nice and helping us!”

13. Annabelle P.
About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs as they can be more affectionate than others. I have never owned a dog much to my dismay but I have always spent time around them. As a child I often would take my cousins dogs on walks and would pester my friends to let me hang out with their dogs. I have also taken care of friends and families pets while they are away, including dogs, cats, turtles, chickens and fish. I am a veterinary student so am more than happy to administer any medication that your dog has been prescribed. I also am a cinnamon trust volunteer so every Saturday I currently walk a 10 year old King Charles that I’ve grown very fond of. As I am a veterinary student about to finish their second year exams I will be free most of the summer when not on placement. I can of course fit taking care of any animals before and after placement days and will be completely free once they are over so am happy to fit animal care whenever I am free. I know that I’ll be free every weekend until October and from August I’ll be free every day. As previously mentioned I am a veterinary student so I will do my very best to maintain a healthy and safe environment for your pets just as I would for my own. I am more than happy to follow your usual routine as well as specific walks you make enjoy doing with your dogs. I am only here to make things easier for you and lend a hand.

15. Lindsey C.
About: My name is Lindsey, I’ve always had little dogs in my home since I was born, so I’m a very experienced. I’ve had my own chihuahua for 6 years now, Buffy is my substitute baby! She loves having her “cousins” over (my mum and dads dogs, which are also chihuahuas) I have 2 lovely cats who pay no attention to the dogs whatsoever! I have my mums dog over lots, she’s a chihuahua too, she’s a very needy little dog, always wants a treat for just stepping outside! My cats are very calm, if they want to be left alone they know go take higher ground! I have a 2 year old boy who loves his pets, but not “loves” them too much! He’s totally normal around them, and they are good to him. I have my 12 year old daughter, the pets just magnetise to her, mainly because they know she won’t move once she’s playing her Xbox for a few hours. Buffy sleeps on my bed, but I always keep a puppy pad down at night just incase. Buffy loves walks to find squirrels in the park, she would love a friend to catch them with! I work Monday to Friday from 8am until 4pm, I only work a few minutes from my home and come home for lunch most days to let our dog out. I work in a school so I’m off for all of August and throughout the year. The house has a completely fenced garden, part of this is fenced off for the tiny human so he doesn’t walk into anything he shouldn’t! There is a piece of real grass specifically for the dogs!

I understand the importance of trusting someone with your beloved pet. My responsibilities include cleaning litter boxes and administering medication. I currently have a job where i can choose my hours of work so can easily fit around you. I only ask to walk dog while it is light outside.

Additionally, I will water your plants and ensure that your home remains safe and secure while you’re away.
