About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with two amazing dogs of my own who mean the absolute world to me. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I truly adore them — they’re my biggest weakness! When your dog is with me, they’ll be treated like family. I’ll make sure they feel completely at home, with lots of cuddles, attention, and playtime. Whether it’s a chilled-out day or an active adventure, I’ll tailor the experience to your dog’s personality and needs. You can enjoy your time away knowing your furry friend is safe, happy, and getting the best care possible — just like I’d want for my own. I’d also like you to know that I will completely respect your house whilst your away, any rules you have please tell me, if you’ve got plants i’ll water them etc. Feel free to message me with any questions or special requests. I can’t wait to meet your pup! The images on my bio show a number of dogs i’ve had the pleasure to either own as a pet, take on walks and dog sit. I’m currently doing an apprenticeship in engineering so my job requires me to work Monday-Thursdays. This is good because i’m available Fridays-Sundays which is great for a little weekend getaway! I have a car so don’t worry if you’re difficult to get too, i don’t mind. This also means i can take your dog to the best spots for walks and adventures! Weekends are definitely preffered I care for pets in their own home where they feel safest and happiest. I stick to their routine, give them loads of love, cuddles, and playtime. All you need to do is tell me what their specific needs are and they will be met!

“Kirsty was a fab house sitter, we received lots of photos and videos of Mac who seemed to be having the time of his life! Kirsty left the house pristine. We look forward to having her sit for Mac again soon.”


About: I am a big animal lover and have had a rescue dog for 9 years where I have done behaviour training and helped her to socialise. I have also looked after several of my friends dogs regularly who all feel trust and reassurance that they will be well looked after. I have been volunteering at a dog rescue shelter for over 12 years too including doing inductions to new volunteers, dog walking and playing with dogs in the exercise yards, and experience with all types of dogs including reactive, nervous and senior dogs. I am honest, reliable, flexible and adaptable and am often free during the week including weekends and evenings so try to be available to meet your needs and help out when I can. I offer a pre-meet and greet and listen to your pets needs so they will be well looked after. I will look after your animal with care, food, medication, love and exercise requests, and follow instructions. I will send regular updates and photos for your peace of mind and reassurance. I am fully understandable of rescue, nervous and senior dogs and am DBS checked.

“Thank you so much for looking after Rosie and Ethel, if it wasn’t for you we would have had to cut our holiday short as the minder we had left our dogs with had left them all day and last minute I contacted Christia while away and explained the situation and she took over and sent us pictures and videos and the house was lovely and clean and even washed bedding and towels which she didn’t have to do. I would recommend her to everyone now and definitely be in touch soon. Thank you so much x”


“I’m so sad I didn’t book Zac before to look after my boys! Having larger dogs you naturally worry but Zac made me feel at ease with them, providing great updates and reassurance. My home was exactly how I’d left it, the boys were left with extra water due to the heat and I can tell they were well taken care of. Excellent communication and care. Will definitely book again. Thank you soooo much! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”


About: I have owned my own dog for 9 years and have trained him myself from being a very reactive, nervous pup to being the goodest of boys. He is fantastic with children and all animals big or small.

I will treat every pet as if they were my own, and I will keep homes clean, secure, and just as the owner left it — with regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease.
