“Peggy and I had a very positive experience with Lyann. Who was accomodating in looking after her fairly last minute. Great communication, thoughtful and kept me updated during the day with photos and videos of how she was getting on. Which was reassuring. Highly recommend Lyann's services.”

About: We are a family with a 1.5 year old, 3 year old stabijhoun dog (20kg) and 5 year old ragdoll cat. Our dog has separation anxiety so we never leave her alone - so your pet would get the same attention! We live behind a park and woods so lots of good walks and we both work from home. Any dog would have to be used to children and cats. We both work from home and can do dog walks in the morning/lunch/ after work and have a detached house with a fenced garden for extra play with our dog. The house backs on to a field and woodland which is perfect for the dogs. Any dog would have to be used to children and cats. We have a fenced garden and a lovely temperament stabijhoun female dog. Detached house with great walks nearby and two of us available for cuddles.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, we had two poodles who were very much part of the family — I spent my childhood alongside them, and they played a big role in shaping my love for animals. A couple of years ago, I welcomed a Cavapoo into my own life, and it’s been one of the most rewarding and joyful experiences I’ve ever had. Over the years, I’ve also regularly looked after the pets of friends and family. Dog-sitting has become something I genuinely enjoy — it brings me so much happiness to spend time with dogs, care for them, and make sure they feel loved and relaxed while their owners are away. As someone who experiences anxiety myself, I’m very attuned to how pets might be feeling. I always try to create a safe, playful, and comforting environment for them. I make sure they’re having fun, staying active, and never feeling lonely. Whether it’s letting them snuggle on the sofa or the bed, playing in the garden, or just being there for a cuddle, I treat every dog I care for like part of the family. My goal is always to make their time with me feel just like home — or even better. I currently work part-time from home, which means I’m around the house most of the day and have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily adapt to your dog’s needs — whether that means going for walks throughout the day, playtime in the garden, or just providing some company and cuddles. Since I don’t have many calls or distractions during the day, your dog will get my full attention and care. I’m available every day of the week, and I’m happy to welcome new furry friends anytime after 10 a.m. I have a lovely, fully fenced garden that’s perfect for dogs to play and explore safely. My own pup, Puree — a sweet and friendly Cavapoo — absolutely loves spending time out there, and he’ll be more than happy to welcome a new friend to run around and play with. Your dog will get plenty of fresh air and exercise, as I’ll take them on walks whenever they need. I’m also happy to follow any specific feeding schedules, routines, or house rules you have in place — I’ll do my best to mirror their home environment so they feel as comfortable and secure as possible while you’re away.

About: I grew up with dogs and am now the proud owner of an 8-month-old Cavapoochon. My children (9 & 11) and I live in Oxford, right next to the meadows—it's a dog’s paradise! We also have a garden where your dog can roam freely. Pepper, our puppy, is super friendly and would love a play buddy. Send me a message, and we’ll make sure your dog is well looked after while you're away! I work part-time from home, and our dog goes everywhere with us. Your dog will be part of this loving pack too! I will take your dog out at least three times a day, and he will have access to our garden whenever he likes. I think your dog will love our home! We will take great care of him/her, as we understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet behind.

About: I have had dogs since i was little along with cats! I have 5 dogs at home which are all very different and required different needs from pups until today. I learned to adapt for all my dogs and their needs thats what makes me a perfect fit! I worked on a farm for years taking care of pups from the moment they were born to training them to be working dogs! I also took care of horses, sheep, cows, cats and even EMUs! Safe to say I have looked after every animal with very different temperaments! I have previously walked my own dogs alongside friends and families dogs ranging from bichon frise to springer spaniel to cane corso. All of which I loved spending time with and learning their personalities and trying to make the best of their time with me. I used to work as a team leader in a pub in Swansea in which i planned dog events which brought in so many dogs and pups which made my day and was very successful allowing me to see more dogs regularly on shift and go bother with them than doing actual work! I work full time in Reading. I can do walks etc after work which is around 5PM on a weekday alongside my gym routine! I will do anything to go for a walk, rain sunshine or even snow i am not fussy! Whatever you have trained your dog to do i can provide in a home service. I am mainly doing this for company from pets as they are the best form of company as my partner works away a lot! If a young animal I can help train and provide care to them! Anything to help and support your needs as an owner!

About: I have been an active animal fosterer for nearly 10 years and have been heavily involved in caring for cats and dogs for locat rescue centres, primarily in their emergency care. I have gained a strong awareness of animal behaviour and know how to help ease the stress and anxiety which you and your pets can face when being in a new environment. I am able to help animals feel comfortable and let them have a very positive experience when away from their owners. I have a strong network of animal lovers who have dozens of years experience and help me grow as a carer. My schedule varies throughout the year. I am a teacher so I have a lot of time off during the holidays and I have plenty of time in the evenings. My home is a ground floor flat which opens up to its own private yard, then leads into open nature trails. We have plenty of space within the home and can set up beds in different locations depending on your pets needs.

“My Tally loves her days with Andre. He’s been so good as she can be a little nervous with people she doesn’t know but it’s like they’ve been friends for years when she runs in each morning! Will definitely be continuing to use Andre for day care!”

“Fab! Thank you so much for looking after Mario today!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was five years old, and caring for them has always been second nature. Over the years, I’ve helped train, walk, and raise my own dogs, but it didn’t stop there—I also began helping neighbors with their pets, from daily walks to overnight stays. I’ve housed dogs of all sizes and temperaments, always making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give—whether it's sticking to a pup’s routine, making time for play, or just offering a calming presence, I treat every dog like part of the family. I work part time and within 7 mins walk from my house so I'm able to come and go to keep the dog entertained and fed constantly throughout the day. I am on call constantly in case of emergencies. I can take them on walks twice a day if they require it, in the morning and evening. I have a fenced garden with no other animals living here at the moment. I keep all my foods on high storage cupboards so no dogs can accidentally injest anything. As I have recently moved I do not have any toys with me so if they could be provided from you that would be much appreciated. There is a park 2 minutes away from my house which is perfect for dogs to run around in either on or off leash. I have cared for dogs my entire life and I will take care of yours as if it was my own.

“Peggy had a brilliant time with Jullieanna and playing with her dogs. Her communication was great throughout and will be using her again. Highly recommend.”

Graeme

“This was our first time leaving our puppy Lola with dog sitters, and we couldn’t be more pleased with how it all turned out. From the start, Georgina and Sam made everything so easy and reassuring. Their beautiful house and garden were perfect for Lola to explore, and it was clear from all the photos and updates that she was having a fantastic time. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care they gave her and would happily recommend them to anyone. Already looking forward to next time!”

About: I have a very hands on experience caring for my own dog and a deep love for all animals- gentle, responsible and happy to help! I am currently unemployed on my summer holiday. I am available most days and times to provide reliable and attentive care for your pet needs. We have a fenced patio on the back of the house. Doors and windows stay shut a d any harmful items are stored away and out of reach.

“Fedra was a lovely friendly person to meet. She looked after my dog well with lots of understanding and affection as my dog can get quite anxious. Would recommend! Location is great too if you're visiting Edinburgh city centre :)”

Angie S.

“Highly recommend!! We had a last minute booking and needed a dog sitter at quite short notice. Layla was more than happy to look after my pup (also layla!) And her communication from the start was fantastic and we got some photos updates during the day which was lovely to see. My dog clearly had a great time with layla as she has come home absolutely knackered after a great day of playing and going for walks. 100% would book again!”

About: I’ve had cats my whole life, so feel very comfortable caring for them, however I have spent a lot of time with my friends’ and family’s dogs so also feel confident looking after dogs as well. My previous experience includes dog and cat sitting for friends, as well as some dog walking. I’m currently unemployed as I will be studying in September, so have lots of free time to dog walk and pet sit over the summer! I currently live in a house in Oxford with one cat (14 years old) with a relatively large fenced garden. I would be able to accommodate any dogs that can get along well with cats.

About: Growing up with dogs, cats, parrots, hamsters, sheep, and chickens, I've developed a deep understanding of varied animal needs. Whether it's a playful puppy or a senior pet, I offer personalized care and your beloved companion will be treated with the same affection I've shared with all animals throughout my life. I’m currently (f)unemployed so I have loads of time on my hands. I can take care of your pets anytime any day, doesn’t matter if it’s a weekday or weekend! In Your Home: Respecting the familiar environment of a pet is crucial. When attending to pets in their owner's residence, I ensure their routines are maintained. This includes following feeding schedules, walk routines, and ensuring that their living area remains safe and undisturbed. I recognize the importance of trust when you allow someone into your home, and I'm committed to maintaining the sanctity and security of your space. In My Care (Outside of a Home Environment): While I currently don't have pets in my own residence, it's a calm and pet-friendly environment. If pets are entrusted to my care outside their usual home, I prioritize creating a peaceful atmosphere. This means regular playtimes, quiet resting areas, and regular checks to ensure their safety and comfort. I'm trained to recognize and respond to the varied needs of different pets and ensure they feel at ease, no matter the setting.

“Natasha is brilliant with our 8 month old pointer puppy. Always punctual and organised. She is calm and doesn’t wind her up yet plays with her and they seem to have great fun.”
