About: I have had dogs and cats since I can remember, all shapes, sizes and personalities. I have trained all of my dogs from puppies and helped them with senior care as they got older. I am an animal lover through and through I work night shifts and on occasion day shifts but this is rare. Which means I can do walks or drop ins during the day and some nights. Would be preferred if booked in/scheduled a week in advance. Im pretty confident with all shapes and sizes of dogs as I’ve had different breeds throughout my life. If any dogs need medication Im happy to administering. I have a German Shepard at home who is our family dog. I take him out for two walks a day and do lots of training while out. He is also on a full raw diet so can cater to any dietary requirements.

“I really happy and confident when Sarah looks after my cat!”

“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! 🐾”

About: Key Information: - only dogs from one household will be walked together/be provided daycare/boarding - (for daycare/boarding) we live in a flat with no garden but there is green space about 10m from the front door for toilet breaks - (for daycare/boarding) the flat is located on a cut through so very often there are people walking past, and cars frequently arrive and leave so please consider if this will distress your dog in any way - (for daycare/boarding) similarly, despite our flat being self-contained, there are shared hallways/entrances so people can be heard moving around the building/we have a neighbour above us Despite currently being unable to have a dog of my own, I’ve been walking and caring for others’ dogs for many years as I love spending time with them and find the whole experience very enjoyable, and a great excuse to discover new areas. My partner, Tom, often joins me on these adventures and he’s a dog lover too! I volunteered for two years at an animal sanctuary back home in Norfolk where there were a variety of dogs of numerous breeds and sizes, many who were reactive/had behavioural issues. As well as friends and family, I’ve also helped care for work colleagues’ dogs and those in my local area, covering many breeds such as Labradors, French Bulldogs, Cocker Spaniels, terriers, and an Akita to name just a few :) Besides walking, this has included: feeding, bathing, light grooming (brushing/filing nails) and administering medication I currently work full-time but work from home 3 days a week so am usually available all day/lunchtimes when I’m at home, as well as most evenings and weekends. This can be flexible depending on the amount of notice given. I will always try to be as flexible as possible to accommodate differing needs. I’m more than happy to accommodate your dog’s current routine/preferences, and will discuss these with you prior to our first walk/daycare/boarding, e.g. no dogs/no off lead/loves to play fetch etc/can or can’t have treats etc

About: Welcome to our family and dog friendly home! I am available for boarding, dog walking and dog sitting day services. I have 3 older children (8-13), and 2 dogs at home; an old slow pug and a lively sprocker! Both dogs are v.friendly and enjoy the company of other dogs and will welcome guests into our home! I have a large rear enclosed garden and access to many road or country walks. I have a well set out space for any muddy pups that may need to dry off, and the dogs are welcome throughout our home. I am fully insured and genuinely really enjoy each dogs unique personality! As I am based from home, I have a flexible approach to dog walking and dog care. It means that dogs are not left alone for any extended period of time and they have great access to both walks and outside space throughout the day. All dogs are catered for based on their individual needs, whether this be meal requirements, feeding or sleeping separately where required and walks in line with their capability. For example, our old pug only likes a small walk around the park but the sprocker likes to go for hours! As we have a large rear enclosed garden there is plenty of space to play and easy access for toilet breaks. Dogs have full access throughout the home and are treated as part of the family during their stay.

“Scarlett is a very pleasant, competent person and looked after Pansy very well, with helpful communications. I thought Pansy was more confident with strangers but since the visitorless pandemic has become shy. She unwound with Scarlett. 5 stars.”

About: I am currently the dog owner to milo who is 3 years old and a cocker spaniel. I got milo as a puppy and toilet trained him as well as training him to recall, sit, paw and wait patiently for his food. I love the outdoors and being active so you can be rest assured your dog will be well walked and cared for. I have a fenced back garden and live opposite a country park as well as other great walks close by. Milo is great around other dogs and very friendly. Milo unfortunately has addison's disease for which he is medicated daily but leads a very healthy life and unlike most spaniels he is calm. I understand what it means to love and look after a dog and how precious they are. I am also have a valid DBS I am currently on materinity leave until October so I am available to dog sit, board or simply take your dog for a walk whenever you need. With having another dog I would ask for a meet up first to see how our dogs interact and that your dog is also okay with being around a baby and that you are also okay with that. I have a fenced garden with plenty of run around space. There are plenty of great walking spots close by. With having a cocker spaniel that needs a lot of attention I know how to care for a dog and understand and meet their needs.

“Stacey (and family) were excellent for Coco's drop in visits, I got regular updates, she was flexible where possible with timings and very reliable. I know Coco enjoyed her time with Stacey as she looked a little disappointed at times when she realised it was only me getting back home some evenings 🤷‍♂️ 😤🤣. Fully recommend and would definitely use her again”

About: Dog lover in my late twenties, recently married and settled into my first home. I work from home most days, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I love looking after dogs until we’re ready for one of our own! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays with prior notice. Our home has a secure garden, and I have plenty of time for walks and play. As long as you provide their essentials, we’ll give your dog all the care and attention they need. I predominantly work from home during the week, allowing me to clarifies consistent, attentive care. Since I have a flexible work schedule, your pet will never feel lonely - I can offer frequent breaks, playtime and care throughout the day. Since I work remotely, I can take breaks for midday walks, feeding or check ins. I can provide overnight care with plenty of attention and affection. Whether your pet needs structure breaks, medication at specific times or extra companionship, I can accommodate their needs. My home is cosy, clean and a safe space for your pet to relax and play. Plenty of attention and outdoor time to keep them happy. I follow your pets usual feeding, sleeping and potty schedule to reduce stress. I accommodate your pet needs.

About: I have taken care of dogs all my life, as we have always had a family dog. Two of which were rescues with complex needs. I have dog sat and walked many of my friends and families dogs and frequently walked an elderly neighbours dog in recent years. I have looked after dogs of various sizes and medical needs. Always ensuring to follow the owners dietary and medication instructions, as well as any walking routines. Im currently working full time but I work from home in a flexible role so can offer my services over a lunch break, morning, evening, or weekend. I fully respect an owners home and follow instructions to the letter, whether that's what rooms/floors the dogs are allowed in to how much food or medication to give.

About: I rescued a labrador who had a fab last 6 years of her life. More recently i'm dad to a very energetic rescued staffy. I frequently care and sit for my friends dogs, including a Spanish water dog and a rottweiler. Always happy to hear your house rules but more importantly instructions on how to specifically help care for your dog. I'm always willing to give them a walk too, will only treat the what you tell me to and follow your way of interacting with them 😊 I work full time but am free most Fridays and weekends to help pet sit and walk. I do have a staffy of my own but my wife cares for him when I'm out and vice versa. Our garden is fully closed off. Fenced 6ft high and bricked 6ft high so unless your dog has mad hops it's not going anywhere 😂

About: I have 3 cats/kittens of my own at home who I love and adore, I have also grown up with different pets in the home. I am currently looking for full time work so that means I will be completely fully available during the day/week for all your pets needs. Routine Care: Establish a daily routine for feeding, walking, and playtime to provide structure and comfort.

Safe Environment: Create a safe living space by removing hazards, providing appropriate toys, and ensuring comfort. Socialization: Spend quality time with your pets and expose them to various environments and other animals to promote social skills.

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.

About: I’ve cared for my sister’s dog since puppyhood and my own pets of all ages, adapting care to meet each animal’s unique needs attentively ! I work 9-5 but make sure pets are cared for before and after work. I dedicate every free hour to loving and caring for pets. I care for pets safely in their own home, following routines closely to build trust and ensure a comfortable, secure comfort while respecting owners’ instructions

About: As a dedicated pet lover and proud owner of a lively Maltese named Luca, I understand the joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. Since welcoming Luca, I’ve discovered the true happiness animals add to my day-to-day life, and I often find myself connecting more with pets than people. Caring for Luca has taught me patience, understanding, and the importance of nurturing a pet's unique personality and needs. This deep connection drives my motivation to become a pet sitter, where I can extend the same level of love and care to other pets as I do with my own. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while they’re away. With me, your pets will not only be in trusted hands but will feel like they are a part of my own family. Pet care is woven seamlessly into my week, making it just as essential (and enjoyable) as my morning coffee! Working from home means Luca is my little “coworker” most days, keeping me company and reminding me to take breaks (which usually means playtime or cuddles). Tuesdays and Wednesdays are my "away days," but I've made sure those are full of extra treats, comfy spots, and toys for Luca to enjoy while I'm onsite. On all other days, I’m here to provide all the attention he could want, from belly rubs to outdoor adventures. For other pets I’d be caring for, I bring the same level of attention and love. I work around their schedules, whether it’s feeding time, walks, or just time to snuggle. My daily routine with pets is as fun and flexible as they need, with Luca as the best assistant anyone could ask for! Living in a cozy one-bedroom home with a fenced garden gives me a perfect setup for pet care! The garden is a safe spot where pets can roam freely and explore without any worry. I love that there are parks nearby, so daily walks and a change of scenery are always on the agenda—great for stretching legs and sniffing new scents. Inside, I make the space as welcoming as possible with comfy spots to lounge, plenty of toys, and some tasty treats for rewards or just to brighten their day. With Luca’s stash of toys and our little routines, pets here can enjoy a mix of indoor comfort and outdoor fun, all with a loving companion to keep them company. Whether they’re looking for playtime or just a quiet spot to relax, they’ll feel right at home!

I'm available on a flexible basis, including weekends. I am currently working part time so I have availablity during the week, sometimes afternoons and evenings. I am very safety conscious and would never put a pet in any potential dangerous situation in the owners home or outside space area .

About: I’ve always had a deep love for dogs, which led me to gain hands-on experience in a variety of dog-related roles. I’ve worked in a rehoming centre, with Guide Dogs, a Pet Store and at a dog groomer’s, all of which gave me a strong understanding of dog behaviour, body language, and individual needs. I also completed a Level 2 Animal Management course, which supported my general animal care knowledge. These experiences have helped me feel confident working with dogs of all breeds and most temperaments. I’m passionate about making sure every dog enjoys a safe, stimulating walk 🐾 Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. From a young age, I’ve surrounded myself with pets and found genuine joy in looking after them. Over time, that passion grew into a lifestyle—whether it’s making time for long walks, learning more about dog behaviour, or helping friends and family with their pets. Pet care isn’t just a job for me—it’s something that fits seamlessly into my everyday routine and brings a real sense of purpose. I love building bonds with the dogs I care for and making sure they feel happy, safe and well exercised 🐕 I understand how important it is to trust someone who’s entering your home and caring for your dog. That’s why I take every step to give owners complete peace of mind. I’m fully insured and DBS checked so you can feel confident that your home and pet are in safe, responsible hands. I treat every home with the same care and respect as my own, always locking up securely and following any instructions you leave. Trust is at the heart of what I do and I’m always happy to meet beforehand to help you feel completely comfortable.
