“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: My name is Debby and I am mature friendly and fun lady who can look after your fur baby for you when you can't, No doggie likes to be on their own all day while you go to work, they need contact and stimulation as well as a bit of company. I can visit your fur baby for you in your home or board them safely in mine when you are away. I have grown up around dogs albeit they were usually Heinz 57 and not the designer breeds we have now, though they were loved deeply and well cared for. I am based in Middleton and will cover areas local to Middleton. I have worked in the care setting most of my adult life, and even as a bus driver for a local depot, I was a local dog walker up until tcovid happened, so boarding and pop in visits are a new and exciting venture for me and it enables me to combine the things I love...... dogs and dogs I am a reliable and responsible adult and I have held a full clean driving license for 30+ years so car travel is no object for vets, groomers etc Your fur baby will have the pleasure of our resident Frenchir and will be made to feel loved and welcome, we go on walks throughout the day so your baby will have plenty of exercise ( if they are that way inclined of course) I am quite petite so I would prefer to take smaller breeds. Going Away? I can also board smaller animals.... hamsters, budgies etc. I am a young retired stay at home dog mum with loads of time and energy to accommodate your precious fur babies in our home I live in a house with a secure fenced garden and cameras and a resident female French bulldog who will keep your fur baby occupied

“Zac has been absolutely amazing helping with my dogs while I’m out. He’s reliable, caring, and I can tell my dog loves his visits! It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in safe hands when I’m not home.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, and I’m currently studying Animal Management to turn that passion into a lifelong career. Animal welfare and safety have always been at the heart of everything I do. Over the years, I’ve looked after a wide range of pets — from dogs and cats to reptiles, rats, horses, and even a ferret who still lives with me today. I truly love all animals equally and believe every species deserves care, respect, and kindness. I completely understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets — I get separation anxiety leaving mine too! 🙈 That’s why I’ll always go above and beyond to make sure both you and your pet feel at ease. I’m big on communication, so you can expect regular check-ins, updates, and plenty of cute photos while you’re away. No pet is ever too much — I’m here to help however I can. i’m currently studying online so i’ll have plenty of time for any of your animal needs, weekdays and weekends are fine with me including any early mornings or late nights you may need help with. Every pet and home is unique, so I always follow your specific rules and routines to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort. Their wellbeing is my top priority, and I’ll always respect the boundaries you set.

About: Experience of caring for puppies as well as much older dogs, who may need extra medication, time and care. Willing to go the extra mile! As a primary school teacher for over 2 decades, I'm now reducing my hours to part-time. I'm hoping this will allow me the opportunity to do something I love on a regular basis. After having cared for my own dog, as well as many others for friends and family, I am looking to offer my services to more families. I have offered home boarding in the past, but starting off getting to know your pets through a home visit & dog walking service in the first instance.

About: i have always loved taking care of animals since i was a little. i have grown up with dogs all my life and had two of my very own teaching them tricks, potty training them and how to behave on walks. i had been given the tasks of looking after other peoples dogs and my own learning that all animals need is to be loved and treated with respect just like us. since coming to university it has been very hard to get a job that is fit for me and makes me feel good and looking after your furry babies can definitely fit the job description i am looking for. i am reliable, polite, caring and ultimately going to become your pets new bestfriend and give them comfort while you get to enjoy all endeavours knowing that your pets are safe in my hands. if you have any questions feel free to drop me a message i would love to hear any worries or any requirements needed for your pets <3 As i am in university i am busy monday and tuesday however the rest of the week i am free meaning your pets will get all the attention they need :) although i cant offer pets to stay in my home overnight i am more than happy to travel to stay overnight at the owners house and also pop in to take the pets for a nice day out or even just some comforting cuddles and most importantly help with any needs they have.

About: Hi! I’m a 24-year-old animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I grew up in a home filled with pets—including a Cane Corso and cats—and I’ve been around animals my whole life. My mum also worked as a dog walker, and I often joined her, learning early on how to handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Although I don’t have pets of my own right now, I miss being around animals and would love to give yours the same care and attention they’d get at home. Whether it’s a playful walk, relaxed companionship, or extra cuddles, your pet will be in safe and loving hands with me. I’m punctual, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. Let’s have a chat—I’d love to meet your furry friend! 🐾 As a mum and a university student, my schedule is flexible and well-organised—I’m used to balancing responsibilities and making sure everything runs smoothly. I’ll always communicate clearly and work with you to find times that suit both of us and your pets routine. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise creating a calm, familiar, and safe environment. I take time to understand each pets routine, preferences, and any specific needs or behaviours. I always follow feeding instructions, clean litter trays regularly, and give plenty of gentle interaction—whether that’s play, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I respect your home, keep things tidy, and ensure doors and windows are secure at all times. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I also provide regular updates with photos or messages to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Being a naturally organised and caring person, I treat every home and every pet with the same care I’d want for my own.

About: With over 6 years of hands-on dog training experience, I specialize in behavior support, puppy training, and senior pet care. I’m qualified through IMDT, ATI (ABTC), and more, and I tailor care to meet each animal’s needs. I’ve worked with assistance dogs, nervous rescues, and reactive pets, using positive reinforcement and compassion in every interaction. I also offer feline care—understanding cat behavior, routines, and the importance of a calm, clean environment. Whether it’s giving medication, enrichment, or specialized walks, I ensure your pet is treated like family. Pet care is a core part of my daily life—I run a dog training business, so I’m highly flexible and accustomed to adapting my routine around pet needs. I offer weekday and weekend availability, with consistent check-ins and quality time with each animal. Your pet’s routine becomes part of mine, and I make sure they feel safe, engaged, and loved every day. I maintain your pet’s routine, ensure a clean space, and follow all safety protocols, including secure lead handling and safe transport if needed. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, enriched environment, supervised socialization, and structured activities that promote their mental and physical well-being. I treat every pet with respect, patience, and care—as if they were my own.
