1. Chelsea L.
“Chelsea is a very competent, well organised and extremely punctual character. She’s meticulous when it comes to animal care, she’s not only educated me but has also instilled some great traits into my two dogs that were well needed. She goes above and beyond the call of duty, I’ve never known anyone to take such enjoyment by spending time with animals as much as she does. If every one loved what they did like Chelsea, the world would be a better place for it. Can’t recommend her services enough.”


2. Lisa M.
“Lisa is a very loving pet caregiver. Lisa used to have a dog who she loved dearly. Lottie was extremely well behaved, affectionate and obedient which I think really shows the time and effort dedicated to her by Lisa. We also have family dogs which Lisa often cares for so she has some experience with different breeds. Lisa is also very active so the pets will have great walks. Lisa will in no doubt care for your pet as if they were her own.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of walking with Faye and her lovely dogs Poppy and Rosie on several occasions. She is an exemplary dog owner with two well behaved and well mannered dogs. I know she comes from a family with a passion for dog rescue and rehoming, and with Faye it is always the dogs first, I would certainly and without hesitation recommend her as a dog/pet sitter and walker.

About: I have always had dogs in my family up until recently unfortunately and have a lot of love to share with your dogs whether that be on long walks or staying overnight at my house I work full time hours.

I will constantly update my availability I have a three bedroom house with a fenced back garden which is only used for the street parking.

12. Kaia M.
“Kaia has always had a dog in her life. She is kind and caring. She loves dogs and always likes to walk our springer spaniel. She looks out for any health problems and is a loving dog owner”


13. Maisie L.
“Cole is a working cocker spaniel with loads of energy. Maisie calmed Cole down and was super playful with Cole which is what he loves, as he is a very attention based dog. Maisie didnt only meet Coles needs but also met mine and my families by leaving our home even tidier than we had left it! Cole is a smart dog so, Maisie played hide and seek with Cole, where she hid toys with treats in and let Cole use his natural abilities to find the toys. This was great for Cole and he felt like a new dog when we got home. Great sitter and would recommend 100%.”

19. Giorgia S.
“Gioriga looked after my 2 senior dogs for a week while we went to a festival. Our eldest dog has a heart murmur and is on various types of medication. Giorgia looked after them very well, did all medications on time, kept us regularly updated the whole time and she kept very clean and tidy. Giorgia stayed with her partner which she asked us about before hand and we had no problem with, and they were both an absolute pleasure. They had their campervan on the driveway and said they could stay in either the van or the house and we said due to the dogs condition we prefer they stay in the house to which they did. I would highly recommend Girogia for anyone looking for a per sitter.”
