I cant recommend Jade highly enough. She was absolutely amazing with bubbles and he adored her. She kept me up to date with photos and videos of his little antics which really put my mind at rest. Nothing was too much trouble and she completely understood how much your pet means to you and how much you worry about them when your away. Will definitely be using Jade again.

About: Hi! I’m Amy, and I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always felt happiest when I’m around them. Whether it’s cuddles on the sofa, fun playtime, or peaceful walks, I truly enjoy giving pets the attention, care, and love they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I always take the time to get to know them, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family — because that’s exactly how I’d want my own to be treated. You can count on me to provide: • Regular updates and photos 📸 • Reliable, loving care • A calm, friendly, and patient presence • Cleanliness, safety, and respect for your home Whether you’re going away or just need someone to pop in during the day, I’d love to help care for your furry friend! I work from home, which means I have the flexibility to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can take dogs out for regular walks, give them company between naps, or check in on cats for feeding, playtime, and cuddles. Your pet will never be left feeling lonely! I make sure my space is pet-safe, clean, and secure. Doors and gates are always kept closed, and I don’t leave anything lying around that could be harmful (like small objects, food, or cleaning products). I supervise pets closely, especially when they’re settling in, and I never leave them alone for long. If I’m caring for dogs, I only accept bookings that are a good fit for their safety and comfort — and I never mix unfamiliar pets. Walks are always done on-lead in safe areas.

About: I have grown up around dogs for the majority of my life and so I am very comfortable in their company! My family dog is a 5 year old boxer dog called Solomon, who I looked after as a young puppy very regularly and so I understand the level of care and attention that dogs can require! I also regularly dog sit for my sister who has a golden retriever named crumpet, therefore I am happy attending to larger dog breeds. I live near the coast and multiple parks and woodlands which is perfect for long walks to help tire them out! I also work flexible hours so I am happy to try and make adjustments in certain circumstances if necessary I work flexible hours, I usually work 7am-3pm but this can be adjusted if needed. I do not have any kids and so my weekends are mostly free as I only own cats which can be left during the day. I am very attentive to an animals needs due to having experience with both dogs and cats, so rest assured your animal will be in very good hands. I am also happy to send any pictures and videos over whilst the animals are in my care just for peace of mind if you miss your pets as much as I do! I am extremely clean and tidy and dogs are also welcome in my car if needed for longer walks out.

About: I grew up with three cats and two dogs. I have a 1 year old lab called Nelly who is the most excited little thing! I’m very used to dogs being strong on the lead!

I am very experienced in taking dogs on wonderful adventures, hiking, playing in the park or going on a quick walk on lead. I understand how nerve wracking it can be leaving your furry friend with a new person, which is why I can guarantee that I will treat your pet and home with the utmost respect and care. I currently work as a teaching assistant so am free in all summer holidays and half terms. I am also available to look after your pets in the afternoons and weekends during term time. I currently don’t offer boarding at my own home but I do offer home sitting and drop in services. When looking after your pet I use the upmost care and respect when in your home.

About: I have lots of experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes and temperaments, including rescue dogs and those who are reactive or anxious. I’ve offered dog walking and sitting services for several years and have worked with everything from high-energy pups to older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I always take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs and personality, and I’m calm, confident and patient in any situation. I’ll follow your guidance closely, keep you updated, and make sure your dog feels safe, happy and well cared for every step of the way. I’m currently not working, so I’m available seven days a week, at any time that suits you. I can offer up to two visits a day, whether that’s for dog walks, cat cuddles or both. I’m happy to fit around your schedule and your pet’s routine, and I’m always reliable, calm and gentle with animals of all kinds. When caring for pets in their own home, I always prioritise their comfort, safety and routine. I follow any instructions carefully, keep things clean and secure, and make sure your pet feels safe and relaxed while you're away. I never rush visits and take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious animals. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I’d want for my own.

About: I treat every pet as if they were my best friend. I treat every pet with patience, warmth and attention to their unique routines and personalities and needs. Pet care isnt just something i squeeze in. It's a central part of my day. I plan my schedule around pet visits and walks to make sure every animal gets my full attention as best as I can. 🏠 In-Home During the day sitting Responsibilities: Safe environment: Ensure your home is pet-proofed (e.g., no hazardous plants, chemicals, or escape routes). Routine maintenance: Feed, walk, play, and administer medications as directed. Comfort and enrichment: Provide companionship, toys, and activities to prevent boredom or anxiety. Cleanliness: Clean up waste promptly, wash bowls, and maintain a hygienic environment. Considerations: Compatibility with your pets (if any). Adequate space and a quiet area for the pet to rest. Emergency contact and vet info on hand. 🏡 Drop-In Visits (You go to the pet owner's home briefly) Responsibilities: Feeding and water refresh: Follow the feeding schedule precisely. Bathroom needs: Let dogs out or clean litter boxes/cages. Medication: Administer as instructed - Tablets given Basic play and affection: Give attention and stimulation. House tasks (optional): Bring in mail, water plants, or adjust lights/curtains to maintain the home’s routine. Considerations: Stick to the pet’s schedule as much as possible. Report any unusual behavior or issues to the owner promptly. All standard drop-in duties Companionship: Help reduce pet anxiety, especially for dogs prone to separation anxiety. Security: Provide presence in the home, reducing risk of break-ins. Maintain routine: Follow the pet’s regular daily routine closely. Considerations: Respect the owner’s home—clean up after yourself and the pet. Be clear on house rules (e.g., bed access, guest policies). Ensure you know how to operate security systems and access emergency contacts. 🐶🧼 Additional Services (Walks, play and drop ins and feeding ) These may be add-ons or stand-alone services: Walks: Ensure leash safety, avoid dog parks unless allowed, and adjust pace to the pet's needs Training reinforcement: Use commands and methods agreed upon with the owner.

On my week nights and weekends i will be available to check in on your pups and cats. And i am also happy to take them for a walk also🥰 I do not offer home boarding so all my care will be in the comfort of your pets own home and i will follow all your instructions to suit their needs.

About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats from when I was very small and continue to have furry companions of my own in my adult life, who just make my life a little bit more complete. I have experience with cats of all types and ages, ranging from kittens who were rescued after being separated from their mother too early, to elderly cats with kidney problems and urinary incontinence. I am also experienced in grooming and in giving both oral and injected medications to cats. I have prior experience in volunteering at an animal shelter as both a cat/dog groomer, cat companion and dog walker. While cats are my first love, I absolutely adore the energy and excitability of dogs, and regularly enjoy going out for walks and adventures with a furry companion. I have experience with German Shepherds and other large dog breeds, having trained my own from puppies and later looked after them in old age. I have also had experience in caring for a elderly dog with dementia, and his associated behavioral issues. I am comfortable with dogs who require a little bit of extra attention and may require some simple training and/or behavioral grooming. I am a qualified paramedic and so have a varied schedule, however my Rover calendar will always be up to date months in advance - please take a look to see my availability :) I am unfortunately unable to care for additional cats/dogs in my own home as that is my pets' space and sanctuary. But I am available to assist with caring for pets in their own home, which I find is often the least distressing for them too. I am comfortable with sticking to feeding routines, adhering to special diets, ensuring the animal is stimulated and gets to burn off some energy with walks and/or playtime, and cleaning up after them.

About: Licensed and inspected regularly by North Tyneside Council under the Animal Boarding Establishments Act 1963, a legal requirement that also validates pet insurance cover. I have 1m public liability insurance on top of that provided this site. Pet First Aid & CPR qualified. These documents can be seen displayed at my home or on request. Positive reviews from clients can be provided. With a love of all animals, I currently have 2 Cocker Spaniels 1 is a neutered dog from puppy (previously I've owned a couple of Springer Spaniels from puppies and Bedlington Terriers and West Highland Terriers have always been in my family) and the other is a neutered bitch from a family friend. I have previously been involved in a large scale reptile breeding and management business for local pet shops. Willing to board any type of dog that is house trained and likes the company of other dogs (mine!). I have an enclosed secure yard where pets are safe to roam. I live near to a conservation area and extensive parkland for walks. I can accommodate long weekends, daily/weekly boarding and longer term by prior arrangement. I am willing to offer discounted rates for longer term and/or regular customers. I have experience of boarding all sizes and breeds of dogs. Recent experience of French Mastiffs, Westies, Pugs, Daschunds (mini, dapple and standard), English Bulldogs, Bichons, Chinese Crested, Bedlington Terriers, Labradoodles, Labradors and Labrador Retrievers, Whippets and Lurchers. Please note:due to non completion of several pre approved bookings recently, which is impacting on me being able to take further bookings, I will only leave requests open for one week from initial enquiry (to allow time for the required meet and greet) therefore if bookings aren't confirmed/paid for within that week, following meet and greet, they will be cancelled. You are, of course, free to rebook and pay if still required. I am home all days every day therefore have ample time to provide pet care, whether that be minding, cuddles, playing, walking or sleeping ! Dogs have free roam of downstairs and there's plenty of space to get away from other dogs if desired. Upstairs is supervised and is gated off. PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR DOG(S) HAVE A COLLAR AND ID TAG ATTACHED. I use the info that you provide about your dog on a council approved checklist to create their routine whilst in my care. I provide this at the meet and greet or it can be emailed. I have a high walled key locked back yard and a fenced small front garden. My home is free to roam on the ground floor and supervised upstairs. Upstairs is gated off. I'm at home 24/7 mostly so dogs have company from myself and also with my own two dogs. I can provide walks during the day and evening. There are 3 downstairs rooms with free roaming plus a hallway and outside locked space. Upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms which are gated off and accessible with supervision

About: I have grown up around dogs and had my own since I was 18 and left home. I currently have just two puppies , a mini Doxie and a Weimaraner so one very little and one very big. They are both super socialised and will be in with your pets unless you provide a crate for them to be split. I work part time , from home and that’s 3 days a week so it may be that I work 8-5 while looking after your pet if it’s a week day but I live with my partner and she only works nights (so she can look after during the day) I do not work weekends I have a fenced front garden and a walled rear yard , I have cctv and ring door cameras. I have 2 dogs and a cat of my own but the cat just sleeps on my bed !

Katie looked after my 2 indoor Burmese cats regularly in Sydney Australia for almost 2 years until June 2025. They absolutely loved her and so did we! She was just a fantastic cat sitter (I have had many over the years) - so reliable, responsible, flexible and most importantly our cats just adored her. She kept us updated with photos and videos every day and we always came home to relaxed and happy cats. I would highly recommend Katie to be your preferred pet sitter because she is the best!

Chelsea was brilliant. The photos and videos of my dog when she was dogsitting showed how happy he was with her, which made relax. I came home to a very relaxed and hapoy dog. Would definitely recommend.

About: I have grown up with cats & dogs my whole life, bullmastiffs, dogue de bordeauxs, spaniels and dachshunds to name a few breeds! Me and my fiancé also have a 3 year old Rottweiler, so i have a lot of experiences with larger breeds!☺️ But obviously still love little, large and any size in between! I have experience of walking strong dogs (it comes with being a dog Mum of a male rotty🤣!) I work Monday - Thursdays till 4 and Friday till 3. On my week nights and weekends i will be available to check in on your pups and cats. And i am also happy to take them for a walk also🥰 I do not offer home boarding so all my care will be in the comfort of your pets own home and i will follow all your instructions to suit their needs.

Lauri is a reliable and friendly person, with a keen love for furry friends! I would not hesitate to have her look after my pets, for any length of time. She is very punctual and organised, and all pups and cats will be happy and in safe hands with her. Highly recommended!

About: Licensed and inspected regularly by North Tyneside Council under the Animal Boarding Establishments Act 1963, a legal requirement that also validates pet insurance cover. I have 1m public liability insurance on top of that provided this site. Pet First Aid & CPR qualified. These documents can be seen displayed at my home or on request. Positive reviews from clients can be provided. With a love of all animals, I currently have 2 Cocker Spaniels 1 is a neutered dog from puppy (previously I've owned a couple of Springer Spaniels from puppies and Bedlington Terriers and West Highland Terriers have always been in my family) and the other is a neutered bitch from a family friend. I have previously been involved in a large scale reptile breeding and management business for local pet shops. Willing to board any type of dog that is house trained and likes the company of other dogs (mine!). I have an enclosed secure yard where pets are safe to roam. I live near to a conservation area and extensive parkland for walks. I can accommodate long weekends, daily/weekly boarding and longer term by prior arrangement. I am willing to offer discounted rates for longer term and/or regular customers. I have experience of boarding all sizes and breeds of dogs. Recent experience of French Mastiffs, Westies, Pugs, Daschunds (mini, dapple and standard), English Bulldogs, Bichons, Chinese Crested, Bedlington Terriers, Labradoodles, Labradors and Labrador Retrievers, Whippets and Lurchers. Please note:due to non completion of several pre approved bookings recently, which is impacting on me being able to take further bookings, I will only leave requests open for one week from initial enquiry (to allow time for the required meet and greet) therefore if bookings aren't confirmed/paid for within that week, following meet and greet, they will be cancelled. You are, of course, free to rebook and pay if still required. I am home all days every day therefore have ample time to provide pet care, whether that be minding, cuddles, playing, walking or sleeping ! Dogs have free roam of downstairs and there's plenty of space to get away from other dogs if desired. Upstairs is supervised and is gated off. PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR DOG(S) HAVE A COLLAR AND ID TAG ATTACHED. I use the info that you provide about your dog on a council approved checklist to create their routine whilst in my care. I provide this at the meet and greet or it can be emailed. I have a high walled key locked back yard and a fenced small front garden. My home is free to roam on the ground floor and supervised upstairs. Upstairs is gated off. I'm at home 24/7 mostly so dogs have company from myself and also with my own two dogs. I can provide walks during the day and evening. There are 3 downstairs rooms with free roaming plus a hallway and outside locked space. Upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms which are gated off and accessible with supervision

Fab dog walker - has kept my daft pug safe despite his crazy antics. I can relax knowing my dog is with someone who loves him and gives the same care I do. James appreciates my dog and understands what makes him happy. I totally trust James and Bunny the daft pug loves him too!

She was amazing with our pets, properly fed, watered and walked. The pets loved her, felt very safe while she was staying. Grace was very slow with the introduction to the pets as they didn’t know her, this built their confidence quickly. Very very happy with the service and was very trusted, the house was left very clean after the stay as-well, she would also message us to update on how the pets are doing which is very reassuring when you are leaving your pets with someone new. Would recommend to a friend.
