Dog Sitting in Norwich

“Cherrise was the best! She kept us updated, kept my cat healthy and happy, and left our house lovely and clean ! Would definitely book with her again.”

Cathy D.

“When I returned from my holiday, I was very happy to see that my cats had been very well looked after by Jenny. She had done a very good job with two rather shy cats. Everything was as it should have been and my cats were happy and contented. I would certainly choose Jenny again. She did a very good job. Thank you.”

About: I have looked after many pets in my time from friends to family pets and would like to do it more frequently as a lover of animals. I am out of education and just saving up for Uni in September! I work at a restaurant and a coffee shop but only 16hrs a week so have plenty of free time. As i look after mostly dogs, obviously dependent on the age and breed i will take on daily walks or runs even in parks or beaches near. As my shift schedules are short i spend a lot of time hanging out and playing with pets. I am also extremely active so can made due with whatever needs they may have.

About: I've owned dogs (mostly rescue) and cats for most of my life. I've attended obedience classes with both older and puppy dogs. My daughter (who is 15) and I love animals of all kinds and we would be honoured and happy to care for your four-leggers when you can't. We live close to Eaton and Earlham parks, so have lots of opportunities for walks. We don't have any pets at the moment, but occasionally care for my mum's Chihuahua. *** Please note that I'm unable to provide boarding for breeds that are banned in the UK, even with exemption, or other similar breeds. So sorry *** I'm a freelance medical writer, so I work from home. I like to get away from my desk often, so your dog will get plenty of exercise every day. There will also be other opportunities for dog-friendly outings on the weekends. Any fur-ball will gets lots of attention and cuddles in our home! My rear garden is fenced in. All visiting pets will be allowed to sleep in the bedroom with me, but obviously in their own beds; they will also not be allowed on furniture in the living areas. I'm happy to accommodate a crate if your dog is used to that.

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, ensuring they are well-fed, exercised, and comfortable. I’ve looked after a variety of breeds and temperaments, tailoring my approach to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s taking dogs on regular walks, playing with them, or maintaining a clean litter area for cats, I always prioritize their health, happiness, and safety. I’m also attentive to any signs of illness or distress and know when to seek veterinary help. I currently work full time in a school so I would therefore need this to work around my main job. At present I am off for the school holidays and have lots of flexibility however as of the 1st September I will return to work. Monday to Friday I work from 8:45 until 15:45 with two to three later finishes a week, normally no later then 16:00-16:30. On Fridays I finish at 15:30. Weekends I do not work so therefore have more flexibility. Depending on the animal I would like to meet with pet owners at there house to ensure their home and garden is safe and secure enough for me to feel comfortable to take care of their pet.

About: I have always taken care of any pets when possible. I simply adore animals, especially dogs! Family will always call upon me to pet sit. This can be at home, popping into the walk/feed/fuss or staying over night. My friends comment how much I simply adore Dogs. Any size, type and amount. I will go out of my way to approach everyone with a dog to say hello! I am in the process of expanding my love of dogs to behaviour courses and anything to further my aim of looking after dogs as much and with confidence from yourself as I can I am fully insured and hold full DBS check via my 2 jobs. Feel free to drop me a message at short notice as if I can squeeze in times with any dog I will. I can do overnight stays with your dog. I do this in the dogs home as they are much happier and content in their own environment. I will always meet prior to meet to ensure yourself and the dog is happy(which im sure they will be) I work 3/4 days a week on a rota 3pm each day. Very happy to pop in anytime after that on those days. This leaves me 2/3 days a week spare to offer my services and I'm excited to do so! I will always walk dogs somewhere familiar to them. In terms of boarding I can do this in your home as Dogs are much more settled in their home environment.

About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was younger, along with cats. I feel I can offer safe and secure care to ensure it suits your lifestyle. I’ve decided to join this service as I would love a dog but due to my work schedule it wouldn’t be fair. I’m excited for long dog walks and to be around animals. Dogs under 1 years old will be considered upon meeting/conversation I currently work full time hours 9-5, I do have some flexibility with my schedule and can alter this with notice. Full DBS up to date due to employment I’m available for weekday evenings and weekends to offer services. I live in NR3, during the week I would be able to attend for drop ins/walks in central Norwich only. Overnight stays weekdays- I’m required at the office which is near the cathedral and if I can offer care to your loved ones I will let you know my schedule. I have a fenced off large garden with space for zoomies. The garden has been updated which means there is no rubble which could cause harm.

About: Dogs and cats have always been part of my life.Long walks On the Heath in all weathers ,lazy naps in the garden sleeping next to woodburner in the winter. All needs prioritised. Puppy toilet training, up to senior care. Privileged to look after part of your family I’m am retired and have my days filled with walks and relaxing at home and looking after pets. Tayloring care for each individual pet so they have the best time and happy to return with wagging tails I have a small fenced garden and live close to several parks, a lake , the Broads and the Heath . I enjoy long local walks and driving to the beach for walks. My home is quiet and relaxing sunny garden and warm wood burner in winter. I am excited about and enjoy looking after pets in my own home and also happy to look after your beloved pet in your own home if it is preferable.

About: I have recently moved here from the States where I did Rover for five years. Through those four years I cared for dogs, cats, and rabbits. I grew up on a farm and have been around animals my entire life. I understand the importance a pet brings to a family and the trust it takes to allow someone else to care for your family pet. I currently work remotely in the afternoons. I have ample time in the morning and can work with pet owners around my schedule as needed in the afternoons. We do not currently have pets in our home due to just relocating to this area. I ensure that I follow your pets schedule so they can rely on consistency.

“I was very pleased Adeline is looking after Tiger regularly, she always arrives on time and does an excellent job. Tiger is very happy with her too.”

About: Hi my name is Polly and I am 20 years old studying social work at the UEA. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I am a responsible and caring dog sitter who would love help take care of your dog. I don’t have my own dog, but my partner and I have a large family and we are always looking after their dogs! So I feel very experienced in looking after a variety of breeds. I live in a flat on floor two with myself and my boyfriend and have quick and easy access to a large area of grass for dogs to use the toilet. I love walking, and would love for a dog to keep me company on these walks! I think a dog is part of the family, so they will be given lots of cuddles and attention and get first pick of the sofa! I am happy to give regular updates and photos to give piece of mind that your dog is in good hands. I am currently off for summer until September so I have a pretty free diary the next couple of months. In September I will then be able to offer weekend sits/walks, and potentially week day but I need to find out my uni schedule closer to the time. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where dogs can feel relaxed and safe. I treat each pet like one of my own — with lots of attention, cuddles, and playtime based on their energy level and routine. I stick closely to their feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any medication instructions.

About: Hello! I’m a life long animal lover living in Norwich with my dog and 2 cats. I looked after friends and neighbours dogs and cats throughout my childhood. My dog was challenging at first as she had very severe separation anxiety and then we found out she had epilepsy! We’ve been very lucky as through training she can now be left alone just fine and she outgrew her epilepsy. We’ve definitely gained some experience in dog training and care through this though. I have I now work from home so I have the flexibility to provide whatever care your pets need whether that be staying in your house with them, boarding them at my home or drop in visits (within close proximity to NR2 if during the day) if you’re only out for the day. My house has a large and fully fenced garden and while we may be in the city we are within walking distance from Sloughbottom Park and Sweet Briar Marsh, the latter of which you’d have no idea you’re so near Norwich! Please get in touch with any questions and I look forward to speaking with you! I’m work remotely with very occasional travel to the office so dates can be arranged around this. I already walk my dog twice a day so any adjustments to fit another dog into our routine would be minimal and my dog would be happy to go on a 3rd walk if that’s what yours needs! I have a fenced large (for the city centre) garden, an incredibly friendly female dog and a cat that pays no notice of dogs and another who loves them. The former is skittish so your dog would need to be the sort who will ignore or be nice to cats and not play/chase, even if it is in a friendly way, she won’t see it like that!

“Amanda provided excellent care for our 2 pups, will definitely be reaching out again!”

“We were really pleased to have Patryece come and check in on our little Yogi while we were out of the house. She was very friendly and confident so Yogi was drawn to her immediately and he was very happy to have her visit him during the day. We would certainly use her services again if we needed to.”

About: I was lucky enough to have 7 Guinea pigs, 2 dogs and 2 cats growing up so walking, feeding and play time has always been part of my day to day. Currently, I have one cat and would love a dog of my own but its not the right time for me, so I thought Rover could be a great way to incorporate some extra pet quality time. Beyond this, I have regularly house & pet sat for friends, family and new owners who I have been recommended to. As well as a couple of pet sits through Pawshake. Animals including cats, dogs, guinea pigs and chickens. I am an easy going and tidy sitter who is a calm affectionate animal lover. I understand inviting a stranger into your home can be a bit daunting for both you as an owner but also for your pet. I am a conscientious person, who is grounded and mindful of the space I am in. I want to ensure that you are confident and relaxed whilst away, and that you leave your home and pets, safe in the knowledge they will be cared for as if they were my own. Usually with my service I am happy to send regular updates/photos whilst you are away to let you know how your pet is getting on. I am currently working casual hours so I am flexible and open to pet care opportunities. I also drive so can travel easily to other locations. My approach to animals is always a calm and mindful one. All animals have their own unique personalities and just like humans it’s important to respect their boundaries and preferences. When entering a new home and meeting a pet for the first time, I always allow for them to approach first and build trust, giving them space to get used to me. Regarding your space, I’m a conscientious and experienced sitter. I am aware of the weight of inviting a stranger into your home and Im always mindful to keep everything tidy and exactly as you left it.

About: My first dog was a rescue puppy who I trained myself. Since then I’ve become the go to pet sitter for all my friends and family, it’s a genuine pleasure. I currently work part-time, and I’m keen to spend this new found free time looking after animals. My availability means I can do walks everyday and sit most weekends and weekdays given enough notice❤️ I currently do not have any pets in the flat so your pet would be the only priority. The garden is walled and fenced off, with much green space. I am happy to crate or otherwise to meet your pet needs.

“Laura was a lifesaver when she was able to accommodate a last minute booking when I had to travel to Cambridge for work. Great communication prior to the visits and gave me updates on the day. My dog Mango loved the attention and it was reassuring for me to know that she was in good hands.”

About: I’m now in my first home and super keen to have animals back in my life after moving out of my family home. I’ve had dogs forever and want them back! I work few days a week at home and I’m self confessed dog obsessed. Your dog would get so much love and attention and would fit amazingly into my routine. Even though i’m in a flat, I love to be active and get out and about as much as possible, whatever the weather. I’d love a dog to accompany me on my walks!

About: I have looked after family and friends' dogs previously, so I understand the importance of this responsibility. I have been responsible for people's dogs on many occasions and have given those dogs my best care. I am a University Undergrad at Durham University. Because of this, my week days for term time will be limited for overnight care, however, please get in contact with me and I am more than happy to fit you and your pets around my schedule to provide the best care for them. For my pet care in norwich, I am available most week days and weekends due to me being off university term time. I do not offer at home pet care services but I am more than happy to look after your pets at your home or outside, for example, taking them on walks etc
