About: Grew up with a mum who never said no to an animal! I have a lot of experience in dogs and cats of all different ages and breeds. I currently own 2 indoor cats one ragdoll and a ragdoll cross which are my pride and joy! I am currently working part time 3 days a week. On the other days I have a lot of spare time between school runs to check on pets. Out of school hours I have my 7 year old daughter with me who thankfully is also a massive animal lover! In my own home having 2 indoor cats I am very aware of open windows and opening and closing doors as cats can be veery cunning when it comes to escaping! I am also very on top of keeping litters trays clean, food and watering area tidy and making their space comfortable for them including simulating toys and a lot of play time to keep my boys entertained. My mum also has 2 deerhound dogs and outdoor cats which I also spend a lot of time with this includes walks on the beach, lots of strokes and keeping an eye on their general whereabouts when wondering around the village (mainly the outdoor cats).

“Em is one of the best sitters we've ever had after years of using Rover. Peg was in the best hands and was calm and happy with Em during an overnight sit. We received lots of amazing peg content throughout the sit too which is always a bonus! Thank you once again Em, you're the best!”

“Thea was perfect with our puppy and cat during our holiday. She kept us updated through the week and the pets certainly looked like they were enjoying themselves. She left the house nice and clean too. Would highly recommend Thea and would love to have her again for our next time away!”

About: I am a designer who works from home, after always having dogs I miss their company a lot. Instead of getting a dog I decided to host dogs in my house. I live in a cottage in St Austell, tucked away in a quiet part of this seaside town. I have a lovely big garden with sunshine and shade where they can play or potter about. The cottage is cool and quiet and has everything a doggy would need. Your dog will never be left alone as I work here too. I only take one dog at a time or dogs from the same household so they will have a really personal experience that will be tailored to them and their needs. There is a wealth of glorious beaches and river trails only minutes away for playtime, walks and relaxing. I try and make every day like a doggy holiday even if they are only staying a short time. I have owned dogs myself as well as having grown up with one always in the household. I had my last dog from a puppy and fully trained him, we did agility classes together too. I have also owned a rescue dog in the past who I worked closely with a trainer for to understand his body language and his needs so I do have experience with dog behaviour. I work from home during the week so your dog will have lots of 1:1 attention as I need to take regular breaks away from the screen. I always walk in the morning, lunchtime and the end of the day as a way to get outdoors and it’s such a treat to do that alongside a doggy friend. I can offer a pet free, smoke free house with a fenced in garden. Please do bring anything your dog likes along to make them comfortable, maybe a bed and some favourite toys for playtime

“Sophie responded to my request so quickly and came to my house to cat sit for the weekend at very short notice. I came home to a very happy cat. Marvin clearly liked Sophie the pictures and messages she sent were lovely and updated me throughout the weekend which was great, as I do worry about leaving Marvin he had a new night time routine and Sophie managed to get Marvin in at night which in itself I was worried about. I would absolutely love to recommend Sophie and will definitely myself be reaching out again.”

“Rosanna was amazing and stepped in at the last minute when a different sitter cancelled housesitting so we could still go for a celebratory meal out. She responded promptly and shared updates through the evening. Would recommend!”

About: We are a couple that loves dogs but travels alot, Jo works from home with flexible working hours which can work around pet care easily. Morning, lunch and evening walks are easily to cater for. Intermittent attention throughout the day is a welcome distraction from my desk. Dogs walks before work, lunch and after work well in any weather depending on the activity level of the dog. I work remotely so all I need is a desk for my laptop. I work from home with flexible working hours which can work around pet care easily. I have the time and flexibility to look after your pet. I have the flexibility to work the same schedule you have with your animal. Happy to look after the home as well as your beloved pet.

“*Worth more than a 5* review* I can’t recommend Jasmin and Callum enough - such a lovely couple and brilliant with my dogs. My first time using a dog sitting service and I felt very comfortable leaving them in such capable hands. I really appreciated the updates and photos too. Thank you both”

“We had previously hired Corben for a day time dog sit and did not hesitate to contact him again when we then needed an overnight stay with our dog. Corben was very flexible with the timings and very attentive to our needs to allow us to make the most of our night away. Corben was great with our dog and provided regular communication on how she was getting on. I can't recommend Corben enough. Knowing our dog was safe and happy allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our event without worry. We will definitely be booking Corben again for any of our dog sitting needs.”

Rachel G.

“Fantastic!! My 2 dogs took to her straight away, she gave them lots of cuddles, attention and enrichment in the garden. She also left the house clean, tidy and secure. I will definitely rebook!”

Victoria E.

“Wow, we were so lucky to have found Ilona, she was the perfect person to look after our border collie, Ben. We rescued him recently and so he is quite needy and yet Ilona took everything in her stride and made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. She knew exactly what Ben needed, especially in the crazy heatwave, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone to look after your dog(s). She responded very quickly to my booking request and was clear about timings and was so reliable and very trustworthy. She also kept us updated with photos and took him for walkies in the woods as it was shaded.”

Emma W.

“Maxine was brilliant with our two dogs and even had Lexi, our rescue dog, sitting next to her.. that only happens with us usually! She sent pictures of the dogs relaxing and on a walk whilst we were away, which was really nice. We would totally recommend Maxine and would book her if we are near here on holiday again. Thanks so much :-)”

Heather E.

“Shannon was amazing, kept me updated regularly and very flexible!”

Fiona C.

“This was our first time using Rover and we were delighted to have found Ruiradh. Our dogs were so well looked after. We received regular updates too. It felt strange entrusting our house and our boys to someone we’d only met for an hour or so before. It all worked out brilliantly. Ruiridh will certainly be our first choice in future.”

Emma J.

“Many thanks to Kyal for a super house and dog sit. Great communications and photos, house left clean and tidy and bedding washed and very happy dogs here when I got back. I find Kyal reliable and polite and he is obviously a dog lover. I hope Kyal will be available to do future bookings for me.”

“Cara completed another sit for my crazy lot (3 dogs, a cat and some pond fish), which takes a lot of patience. She looks after all the animals extreme care, and caters to there needs. Cara always goes above and beyond, and this time came to our rescue when I stupidly forgot to leave a house key out for her to gain access, which I am so very grateful for. Our house is always left very clean and tidy, and the dogs enjoy her company, we highly recommend her. Thank you Cara for another great sit.”

Lisa H.

“First time I've ever left the dogs with anyone and I couldn't have chosen someone better. The girls had the best time, enjoyed walking and relaxing with David. I was kept up to date with photos too, which was lovely. Thank you. Will definitely be booking again.”

About: I always had dogs during my childhood but work has stopped this happening during adulthood. Since becoming self employed and working from home my wife and I were able to get Ringo where we are most happy spending time all together either on walks or being lazy at home. We live on 2nd floor so guests need to be good with stairs and as there are communal areas we need all guests to be very well house trained in all situations. If sending a request or enquiry please ensure your dog profile is complete so that we have all the information to decide suitability. We look forward to meeting any new friends on walks, drop in visits or joining us at home. We will see you soon.
