House Sitting Pendle

“Really lovely pet sitters! Really understanding of a late change in plans and sent lots of pictures of the babies when we were away”

Lily H.

“Caroline did a fantastic job looking after my Bruno for a week. She is a pleasant and chatty lady who clearly loves animals. She sent me updates and pics every day. She is so good I have booked her again. Highly recommended”

Sylda O.

“Would highly recommend, my animals love Lucy really friendly and professional, mine are always looked after and cared for well, are always happy and get updates 😊”

“Carrie was brilliant with our Boris. He did miss us, but he was settled with her, so we can't ask for more than that! We would definitely use her again. Thank you :)”

“Tallyn was amazing. We had a pre meeting so he could meet Mylo and see where we live. He was extremely polite and very respectful of our home. Mylo absolutely loved him. We will be using Tallyn again. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter.”

Bettina H.

“Samantha was great - she followed Caspian’s routine and kept me updated with loads of photos. He was very happy when I got home and if I’m honest I think he’s been missing her since! Will definitely ask her to look after Caspian again in the future, as he clearly had a great time. Would enthusiastically recommend Samantha to anyone considering a sitter!”

Danni C.

“We had never left Tilly with anyone who was not family before and had a limited period to find a siiter (7 days) but the first time we met Jennifer we were immediately reassured. Whilst away we were updated daily via photos and videos which showed a happy contented dog- in fact Tilly looked more contented with Jennifer than with us!!! We came back to a clean and tidy house but more importantly a perfectly healthy and happy dog. We would not hesitate in using Jennifer again- in fact we are already planning trips away working around Jennifer and would highly recommend her.”

Maura E.

“Leah was able to help me with a very last-minute request and she was amazing at looking after Dixie and keeping me updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. I will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much again Leah x”

About: As an animal lover and previous dog owner myself, i am very aware of the anxieties leaving your furry members of the family at home can bring, which is why I have created this home away for home experience for your doggies to ensure their tails are wagging and they are truly happy and comfortable. I have vast experience with a wide range of breeds, big, small and even miniature and would be happy to accommodate any specific requirements to enhance your puppies/dogs stay and ensure all their needs are met. My little one (13 months old) is amazing around dogs and loves being outdoors 🐾 so rest assured your fur babies will be included in everything we do! However, if your dog is a little anxious around other dogs or just likes to explore solo, I can accommodate for that too! 🐕 I am currently still on maternity leave, so my availability is pretty broad and your fur babies will never be left alone and get all the love and attention they crave ❤️ Our adventures include exploring somewhere new each time we walk, whether that’s the beautiful scenic spots around Yorkshire (canal, woodland, open fields) or further afield (beach and doggy parks) where they can enjoy all the sights, smells and stimulation they need. However, I understand this could be a lot for some dogs/puppies so would adjust accordingly. I am also willing to offer a pick up and drop off service, depending on time and distance, to ease the process for you and your fur baby. As a nurse I also have an enhanced DBS check. Your pup/dog will have access to my entire flat including sofas and the bed with plenty of space to eat, sleep, rest and play - there’s even a big toy box to choose from 🧦🦖🦴

“Nicola is fantastic! She was brilliant with our 3 month old puppy and gave her the care and attention she needed when we were away for the evening. Her knowledge and experience with dogs is exceptional, and her kind and friendly nature is great for owners. Will definitely be using Nicola again and would highly recommend to others! Thank you! ☺️”

About: My family have had dogs since I was 6 years old; mad Labradors and German Sheps that think they're puppies still, plus multiple family members have had dogs of all sizes, ages and trained levels. Whilst I was at university up in Scotland and when living in the Lakes I regularly house and dog sat. I just love having dogs around, live a 2 minute walk from a large park, 10 minute walk from the canal paths, also a longer, steeper walk to bridle ways and the moors. The only reason I don't have my own is because I have recently moved to the area (to my own home) and am applying for rescues. I currently work full time (8-4/9-5, depending what I have on that day). 4 days a week from home, 1 day in the office in central Manchester. I go for a walk myself every morning and lunch time, plus have the capacity to go for shorter 'round the block walks' and longer walks either side of my work day. Listening to the owner on the dogs routine, boundaries and toilet and walking habits is key - it takes a looong time and a lot of capacity to establish those, so they will be fully respected. I have a small, walled yard at the front of my house, that I am currently measuring up to build a higher fence (for when I get my own dog and a nice bit of privacy). Whenever I am downstairs in my house I have the front door open, so your dog can pootle in and out at their own leisure. I have space both downstairs and upstairs for a crate or dog bed.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes for many years. I have looked after puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I am confident around animals and have knowledge of pet first aid. I also have my own car to travel. I am a full-time student and work part-time. Please message me for monthly availability. I can have 0-2 lectures per weekday and am available until 10:30am on days when I am working. I often work evenings, so can be free during the day. Every week can be different for me, so I can be flexible! I have a fenced garden, and lots of outdoor spaces where I can walk your dog. If your dog likes company, my Labrador will be more than happy to join also!

About: I have had my own dogs personally since i was five years old. I have grown up around dogs and also looked after family and friends dogs also. I am currently working part time so i have plenty of availability and time needed to look after them. I’m also available most weekend and evenings. I have a fenced garden that has plenty of space and a sausage dog named Colin who loves the company and loves to play with other dogs.

About: I’ve had lots of pets since I was born from dogs and cats to lizards and rats. I have always loved being around animals, taking care of them and making them feel loved and comfortable :) Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life, I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, so my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walking, playtime, and cuddles. I’m used to early mornings, regular exercise, and keeping animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I’m passionate about working with animals and plan to make pet care my full time career. In my home or yours I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved as if they were my own. I provide a secure environment, regular feeding, fresh water, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep routines consistent and ensure each pet’s needs are met whether that’s special diets, medication, or extra snuggles.

“Ada was absolutely fab! She came to house sit my dog whilst I was at work, and it went completely smoothly. I was really nervous about leaving my dog, but she was really reassuring, sent me lots of updates throughout the day and made sure my dog was happy and relaxed. I’m really pleased with how it went and have booked again with Ada! Yay my dog has a new friend!”

“Debbie was absolutely brilliant with our FIVE, yes FIVE dogs ! A mother dachshund and four five week old puppies for the day. She came in advance to meet us all and sent me updates through the day. I knew straightaway that she was an experienced animal lover. I would recommend Debbie 100% and will definitely ask for her again if I need more help over the coming weeks.”

About: There hasn't been a time in my life without dogs. I currently have 2 rescues from the RSPCA; a Dachshund and a Shih Tzu cross Pomeranian. Growing up we had 3 Dalmatians and a Doberman. I am also an experienced small pet owner from gerbils, hamsters and rats through to guinea pigs and rabbits. I know how much your pets mean to you but also how sometimes you go places that aren't best suited for them and just need a helping hand to watch over them. I will always ensure the best care for them and some may say spoil them a bit too much! I work an office job 9-5 so I am available mornings, evenings and weekends. I can do short visits on lunch times if located within nearby proximity. I have grown up with dogs and small pets my whole life so I am well versed in animal care and what they need. I have had dogs of varying temperaments. Most of my dogs have been rescues so all come with their own quirks and needs. I understand how some pets require a little extra t.l.c and some need their own space.

About: I’ve loved dogs since childhood and have always had them in my life. I am a single person who spends much of my free time out walking in nature, which I enjoy even more if I have a dog to walk with me! I’m very much the go-to dog sitter in my family and regularly help care for my elderly grandparents’ golden retriever, my mums Jack Russell and my dad’s cockapoo. So I’m used to supporting dogs of all sizes with different needs, routines and personalities. I’d be very happy to walk your dog, visit them in their own home or have them stay with me at my house in Rodley where I have access to the Leeds to Liverpool canal as well as parks and woods right on my door step. I understand how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust, and I’ll always treat yours with patience, kindness and genuine affection. I work full time Monday to Friday (9–5:30pm) from home, which means I naturally build my days around regular dog walks—usually 2–3 a day around work. With no children or other commitments, my mornings, lunchtime, evenings and weekends are very flexible, and I love getting out for longer walks in the countryside or exploring different trails in and around Leeds. Also happy to commit to a regular schedule or just one offs I’m calm by nature and will always respect your care preferences, whether that’s sticking to a routine, gentle companionship at home, or sociable walks with friends and their dogs.

About: Since starting pet sitting in April'19, I have now completed over 157 weeks of care, from the -30'C Canadian winters to the near 50'C summer in Dubai, remote Caribbean island to the hustle of capital city. Dogs & cats are equally loved, from Mini Dachshund to Bernese Mountain dogs, sleepy Pug to energetic Collie pups. So many happy memories and stories to tell. I feel honored and proud of my 5* feedback & references which are all far more important than anything I could write in my profile, and I have completed all verification available to me on this forum. Please help me to help you & your furry friends whilst you are away. Get in touch and we can arrange a call, skype, What'sApp or Zoom to make sure we would be a perfect fit. Communication is key. During my career as a Quality Manager, I always operated with the upmost professionalism, with integrity and in an open & honest way, and endeavored to instill these values to all of my team. Your house sit would be no different. I have been used to global pet sits of 1 to 2 months at a time, but equally, as I type, I'm sharing the sofa with a new furry pal in Suffolk for the week. It is unlikely that I would take any offers below 7 days. I am looking for pet sits during vacation from work. As such, my schedule would be adaptable to best match that of your beloved pet. I'm happy to explore the local woods & surroundings for up to 3hrs, dependent on the needs of your dog, and would keep to all of their normal scheduled meal / rest times. I like to pet sit to be with the pets, it is that simple. I could fly away and lay on the beach for a week or so, or maybe take myself away to the nearest ski resort, but that is nowhere near enjoyable as plotting a route to explore the woods using Ordinance Survey Apps with a new pal by my side, or playing fetch, tug or grooming. And I don't know why, but a nice pint in a quintessential British pub always tastes better with a pal at your heels.

“Zara came to our rescue agreeing to look after Herbie quite last minute which was so helpful! She was very calm and confident about everything, and had everything Herbie needed in her home, which made dropping him off so easy. She was friendly and playful and kept us regularly updated. Herbie clearly enjoyed his time with Zara and we would all be very happy for Zara to care for Herbie again! Thank you!”
