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.

“Lindsey was very friendly and reassuring as my young dog went away for the first time with her. ‘Frankie’ came back happy and tired and I would recommend Lindsey as you can see she loves dogs and Frankie was happy with her too.”


“Hayley was absolutely amazing with both our dogs. She was so flexible working around my daughters and son in laws shifts while we were on holiday. It was such a peace of mind knowing Hayley would call when she said she would and do all that we asked whether it was walking the boys or feeding them and giving them cuddles. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her again”


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.


About: I have been around animals/pets all my life and regularly look after family and friends dogs.I live close to a big field for runs and walks, your pet will be well looked after with me, the last dog I looked after did not want to leave me! I also have experience with dogs with challenging behaviour or whether they don't like other dogs etc and need to kept on the lead or need walks in quieter places with no dogs around. I also have experience with senior dogs who were blind. Hope to hear from you soon. I work term time in a school which means I have all the holidays off. In that time your pet will have all my attention. Can do weekends also. I have a large back yard which is fenced aswell as the front. I live very close to a large field. I can cater to any needs of your pet, they can sleep in their bed/crate but I am more than happy to let them in my bed, sofa etc, your pet can make themselves at home with me, like a home away from home. I don't have any pets myself and have no young children my kids are teenagers.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little, I am confident with all dog breeds and temperaments. I have also worked at a doggy daycare center as part of work experience so I am able to clean up, feed and walk dogs. I am currently working flexible hours so preferably weekends or mornings/evenings in the week but I am flexible to accommodate my clients and their needs. I used to own a springer spaniel but I now own a cocker spaniel, I always take her out on walks, feed her a few times a day, sometimes wash her and ensure she is happy and comfortable.

About: I have had dogs and cats in my home since I was a small child alongside guinea -pigs, rabbits and chinchillas. Since living on my own (10yeard) I have had recue cats in my home and often looked after friends and family's animals by house sitting or walking them. For the last 2 years I have fostered dogs from the Charity Dogs Trust and have had basic training in grooming, giving medication and basic behavioural recognisition. I am most experienced with reactive dogs and those with anxiety. I currently work from home and only recently moved to Newcastle, so I am looking to have some companionship and floofy cuddles during the day. Plus living near whitley bay means loads of beach side walks and what better friend then a doggo to take with me. I have a fenced in garden and no other pets currently so your fur baby will have a safe, quiet environment. I do have a crate if needed but usually let the floors on the sofa or in a Doggy bed. I drive so can pop into your home to pick up a pet if needed for walks or check ins. My neighbours don't have dogs either so reactive dogs should be happy too.

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.

“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: Me and my husband currently have two female dogs - a Labragotto and a Dalmatian They both love to play with other dogs and are very friendly with everyone. When I leave my pets in the hands of someone else, I expect them to receive a home-from-home experience. I therefore will do the same for any pets that I care for! I will also tailor the needs for each pet according to their owners wishes. For example, I allow my pets on the furniture but if you would prefer for your pet to not be on the furniture we can amend our lifestyle to suit that! I have always been around animals growing up, I looked after my two family dogs, horses, a cat, rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters! My husband is also well versed with animals, having grown up with a dog and a cat! 🐈⬛ I am a student midwife and so I am not working right now which means I have all the time to spend with four-legged friends 🐾 My husband works from home, so we are both on hand for separate walk routines if needed. Our dogs require a lot of exercise, we aim to walk at least 3 times a day but we can make adjustments accordingly for dogs with various fitness requirements! I have an unfenced garden but can but can put up temporary fencing. For toilet breaks I tend to put my dogs on leads to take them out anyways which helps their lead training. The house is fully safety proofed with no hazards. There is always someone home so your pet will never be left on their own.

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: 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 have experience with reactive dogs as well as puppies, friendly dogs and dogs with specific dietary requirements. 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. I give your pets the care they need whilst looking after your home. I leave everything clean and tidy and exactly how it was left. My top priority is that your furry friend is comfortable in their own environment with someone there to look after them and keep them fed.

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.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs for over 15 years - currently three adorable pugs. I also look after family pets and have experience as owner of nervous rescue dogs. I’m a parent of 3 lovely boys and so available during the day during school hours and also later in the afternoons and the evening I will provide a bespoke service , one to one of desirable.

About: With over 13 years of experience in dog care, I specialise in walking, boarding, and sitting. Since June, I’ve transitioned to running my own dog walking and sitting business, Canine Country Club, where I provide attentive and loving care for your furry friends. I also have a 10- month-old chocolate Lab named Sully, who deepens my expertise and passion for dogs. As a full-time dog walker and sitter, I have the flexibility to integrate pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. This allows me to provide consistent and attentive care for your pets, whether it’s for walking, boarding, or sitting. My dedicated focus ensures that I can give each pet ample time and attention, making sure they are well-cared for and happy throughout the day. In both my home and a pet owner's home, safety, trust, and creating a nurturing environment are paramount. My home features a spacious, fenced garden where dogs can safely play and explore under supervision. Additionally, my own playful puppy provides added companionship and playtime for visiting pets. Whether boarding at my place or caring for them in their own home, I prioritise their comfort and well-being by following routines, providing ample play opportunities, and maintaining clear communication with pet owners to ensure their peace of mind.

Would recommend to a friend.”
