“Lucy stayed at my home and looked after my two dogs while I went away. She was amazing and kept me updated on how things were going and answered messages quickly. I would definitely recommend Lucy to anyone. She is amazing. Thank you so much.”

“Cheryl took care of Dawn, our greyhound. She is professional, caring and respectful. She made an effort to get to know Dawn's needs, routine and likes/dislikes and we felt confident that we were leaving her in good hands. I'm an anxious person and Cheryl did a great job of putting me at ease, and sent us plenty of updates which demonstrated how relaxed and happy Dawn was in her company! She clearly adores dogs and has plenty of experience, and seems like someone who would handle emergencies well too. We wouldn't hesitate to book Cheryl again.”

“We were very nervous at first having never left our girls with anyone, but we met Corinne and straight away she put us at ease. What a lovely women! It was obvious straight away to us she loved animals and she was fantastic with them on our first meeting. When it came to us being away Corrine kept us up to date with photos and messaged us to put our minds at rest. She also took very good care of our home, we couldn't recommend her enough!! Thank you Corrine”

About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life and I am currently studying animal care in college so I am able to carry out care for pets to a high standard and I have also received qualifications in this sector. I am able to do this morning and night between 6-8am and 6-10pm on weekdays due to college and other responsibilities and 6-8am and 2-8pm on weekends due to working. Feeding, grooming, watering, walking. I do this on a daily basis due to having pets of my own, and I have done this for many years.

“Pablo looked after our two dogs for 2 nights for the second time. Outstanding as always. The dogs were clearly pleased to see him and have settled with him well. Pablo always takes the care and time to keep us updated and looks after them as well as we would. He always goes above and beyond 😊”

“Jessica was a fantastic dog sitter. I felt really at ease knowing my dog was left in such capable hands. She sent regular updates, asked questions rather than just guessing, and truly cared for my dog. I would certainly recommend!”

“First time that Maya has looked after Zeus and she ensured that he had the best time, gave him all of the attention that he demands 🤣 Maya came to see Zeus at short notice but did not hesitate to commit to looking after him… she sent me plenty of updates and really put my mind at ease. Will definitely have Maya look after Zeus in future.”

About: I’ve absolutely loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by all kinds of pets. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs and more, so I’m confident adapting to different animals and their individual needs. I currently have a Shih Tzu called Teddy, who means the world to me, so I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust to care for your pet. I also have plenty of experience with cats, having looked after my own over the years, and my partner has five cats, so I’m very used to feeding, playing, cleaning litter trays and making sure each cat gets the attention and affection they need. I genuinely love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles or simply having someone calm and reassuring around, I’ll always make sure they feel safe, happy and cared for. I’ll look after your pets with the same love, patience and care that I give Teddy, and I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind 🩷 I work in a school during term time, which means I have great availability during weekends, bank holidays, half terms and school holidays. I’m also available throughout the 6-week summer holidays, giving me plenty of flexibility for longer stays and when you may need extra support with your pets. I’m available for overnight stays, and longer periods of care during school holidays, offering reliable and loving support when you need someone you can trust with your pets 🐶🐱 Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. When caring for dogs and cats in their own home, I understand how important it is for them to remain in a familiar environment where they feel secure and relaxed. I will always take the time to learn your pet’s individual routine, personality and needs, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, favourite toys, sleeping arrangements and any specific instructions you have. I’ll make sure their environment stays clean, safe and comfortable while providing plenty of attention, enrichment, playtime and affection. I understand that every pet is different. Some may be energetic and love long walks and play, while others may prefer a quieter approach with lots of patience and reassurance. I’ll always respect their personality and make sure they receive care that suits them as an individual. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own, providing reliable and loving care while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, giving you peace of mind that your pets are happy, safe and well looked after in their own home 🩷

About: I grew up with Dobermans and at one point we had three in the house. I love dogs and regularly look after my friends pets both sitting and walking. Had experience of dog training, both small and bigs breads, from a border terrier to a German shepherd. Happy to go on adventurous walks, or a walk round the block and open my home up for sitting too. I work full time but have every other Friday off and can work flexibly from home for 2 days a week. I am more available at weekends however can adjust my work from home days to sit around the weekend for longer sitting opportunities. Dog walking can be before work, after work or during a lunch time on a WFH day and weekends any time. I have no pets of my own just yet. I have a garden at my home, 3 bed house with plenty of space and space downstairs for dog beds, crates or whatever is required. I am super respectful and will always follow the dog owners wishes for caring for their dog.

“Louise was fantastic! She made an instant connection with Terri, which immediately put us at ease. As it was our first time using a puppy sitter service, we really appreciated how friendly, professional and experienced she was. Louise kept us updated with regular messages and photos while we were out, which was so reassuring. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and would highly recommend her. Thank you so much, Louise!”

About: I grew up with all kinds of animals, training young ones and tending to injuries or ongoing needs. From terriers and spaniels to farm felines and couch cats, and most inbetween. I don't have my own at home now, and have been boarding or walking for friends to fill the fluff shaped gap. Keen to share my space more often and give a safe spot to play and rest while owners are away, or just for walkies and check ins. I'm fair and fun with dogs, love to make their brain and nose work with hide & seek games. Cats are royalty and so entitled to their own agenda; no pressure from me to make fast friends unless they want to play or come for cuddles. I'm in and around most of the day, taking time work on some passion projects at home. Often find myself in the park or a cafe, boarders very welcome to accompany me! One evening per week I work out of the house for 2-4 hours, which can be worked around. I've worked in support for many years, and see sitting quite the same! If visiting their home, first off cover the basics of food, water, access to outside and play. Keeping the environment safe and clean, noticing signs of distress and adapting to what they need as much as possible. At home, there's comfy places to curl up and space to play. The kitchen is ideal for a quiet area to eat and decompress if they need it, with managed access to the yard. I have a fenced yard with a shrubby boarder for toilet and run around time. Some access to neighbours' lawn.

“Charlotte looked after my dogs while I went away. She kept me updated on how they were getting on. I would definitely have Charlotte look my dogs again. Thank you”

“Maya is a fantastic pet and house sitter. We are so grateful that Maya could fit us in last minute. Our 2 year old Labrador was in safe hands and very well looked after. Maya gave us plenty of updates while we were away. Would not hesitate to book again!”

“Emily came over and stayed in our house whilst I went away for a few nights, she made sure Winnie’s routine was the same and kept me posted with walks, pictures and just reassurance that Winnie was okay. Honestly couldn’t recommend enough!”

About: I love looking after dogs and am always the go to dog sitter out of all my friends. I have been a dog owner myself, and love caring for dogs. I love all animals, and I'm happy to do drop-ins for any type of animal - other than spiders, I'm terrified of them! I work full time from home so will have lots of availability to support during the week and I am around on some weekends too. I have a fenced garden that is very secure so the dogs will have lots of opportunity to go outside. Adult only home with no other animals.

“Rachael spent a day looking after our puppy and we would highly recommend. She was lovely, responsive, tidy, and our dog had a great day with lots of play and a walk! She kept in touch with pictures etc. I’d be happy to leave our puppy with Rachael again!”

“I can't recommend Alannah highly enough! She looked after our cat, Cersei, and our whippet, Luna, with so much care, love, and attention while we were away. Cersei was unfortunately suffering from a UTI at the time, and Alannah went above and beyond by keeping me updated on how she was doing. Her regular check-ins and updates gave me so much peace of mind and meant I could actually relax knowing Cersei was being so well cared for. Luna is a sensitive little soul, so I was a little worried about how she'd cope, but she took to Alannah immediately. That says everything about how gentle, kind, and compassionate Alannah is. She has such a calming nature, and it was obvious both of our pets felt completely comfortable with her. I also really appreciated all the lovely photos and little check-ins throughout our trip. They truly put me at ease and made being away from our pets so much easier. I will 100% be asking Alannah to come back and stay in our home to look after Cersei and Luna again. Thank you so much, Alannah ❤️”
