Mia is amazing with my puppy. He is such a handful and has so much energy and he requires someone with a lot of patience which Mia definitely has. From the updates that i receive from Mia when she goes and visits my puppy they seem to enjoy playing with his toys and seems to really enjoy his time with her. I would definitely recommend Mia to anyone who is looking for someone to look after there dog.

About: Hi, my name is Dawn and I have a deep love for animals! Growing up with dogs, cats, and small pets, I learned how to care for them with patience, kindness, and responsibility. My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from my genuine joy in spending time with animals and ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and clients, handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles, I provide personalized care based on each pet’s needs. I’m also comfortable administering medications if needed. For the health and safety of all pets in my care, I only accept vaccinated animals into my home. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I strive to create a loving, stress-free environment. I look forward to meeting your furry friend! I work from home, which allows me to be flexible and attentive to your pet's needs throughout the day. Being at home means I can spend quality time with your fur baby ensuring they receive plenty of love, playtime, and attention while you’re away. I have experience caring for various pet personalities and understand their unique needs. My work schedule is flexible enough that I can adhere to your pet's routine, ensuring they are fed on time and have ample opportunities for play and relaxation. You can rest assured knowing that while I’m working from home, I’ll be fully dedicated to keeping your dog happy and healthy during their visits. I have a secure back yard where your dog can stretch their legs, and a large playing field about half a mile away where they can play and have a good run depending on recall.

Outstanding service. I was very nervous leaving my cat, Pip, with a sitter for the first time but Olivia put my mind at rest and even agreed to add further drop ins at the last minute. Well worth the money and the updates at every visit were very welcome. Pip was quite content when we got home. Will definitely look at booking again.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors who need extra patience and support. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic medications, leash training and reinforcing good manners through positive reinforcement. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and body language, making sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I aim to keep pets relaxed and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits around my weekly college schedule, which I attend four days a week, plus one day of work experience at a doggy daycare. I’m used to structured routines and being around animals every day. Outside of those hours, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as weekends. My experience at a busy daycare has made me confident managing different personalities, keeping pets safe, and giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection whenever I’m with them. I’m also happy to be contacted about caring for other types of pets, including reptiles and small animals. Safety is always my top priority. I’ve done work experience in a veterinary clinic for 4 years, so I’m very comfortable around animals of all temperaments and have a good understanding of their health and behavior. I’m able to notice early signs of stress or illness and handle situations calmly if anything seems off. When I’m in your home, I’m respectful of your space and stick to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable. I make sure doors are secure, double-check leashes and harnesses, and keep a close eye on pets during outdoor time. I’m careful about unsafe foods or objects and always aim to keep things calm and clean. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.

Ketsia was absolutely brilliant with my cat, Posi. She visited daily to feed him, clean his litter box and spend proper time playing with him. She sent daily updates with photos and videos of everything she’d done, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. Posi clearly loved her company and looked relaxed and happy in every update. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Ketsia again and will definitely be rebooking in the future.

About: I currently work for the UKS largest rehoming organisation which allowed me to learn dog behaviours inside and out, having undergone training to recognise behaviours, what they mean, and how i can care for dogs personal to their needs. I also spent 7 months in The Philippines independently rescuing and caring for over 18 animals (newborn puppies and kittens included) - Having found my own furbaby on the street in horrific condition i nursed him back to full health and brought him back to the UK with me. Between working part time and caring for my own doggy, i have the time to help others look after their fur babies as i know life can be so busy! I have training on dog behaviours and know how to make your pet comfortable. I listen to even the smallest of needs/wants for your pet because every one is different and i know particular routines are so important! No detail is too small.

Sally was amazing from the introduction visit to looking after Bella she was great. Bella who is timid normally, went straight to Sally! Sally sent a video & photos during my time away (only a couple of days this time ). Clearly Bella trusted Sally & that was very important to me. I shall definitely use Sally again.
