Imran stayed at our home with Thor for 1 week whilst we were on holiday and we couldn’t be happier with the service. We received regular updates and pictures. Whilst we were away Thor was sick and it was mostly blood. Imran notified us straight away. We made an emergency vet appointment and Imran was happy to take him. It turned out to not be anything too serious thank goodness. We are so grateful to Imran for being so flexible and caring. Thank you again Imran!

Sarah house sat whilst caring for our dog Rusty (Toller age 9) and our cat Caspurr (age 12 and poorly). Sarah took it upon herself to visit us, well before the sit, to meet each other and obviously the pets. It was clear Sarah's focus is to ensure the pets are happy and is working to improve her knowledge of everything to do with pet care. We were reassured from the start by Sarah's consistent & friendly comms and we felt more relaxed that we wouldn't be let down with a late change. I called Sarah's last employer for a personal reference, as we didn't know her at all, and received a very positive endorsement about her professionalism. Whilst we were away Sarah kept us updated with photos, video's and messages about our "boys" and they seemed very comfortable with her. On our return from 2 weeks holiday the house was clearly taken care of nicely and our entire experience with Sarah for the house sit was a positive one. We happily recommend Sarah and wouldn't hesitate to ask her to help with any future sits. Paul & Karen Archer

About: Hi, I’m Andriana, a first year medical student who's home for the holidays! I really love spending time with dogs and have some experience in taking care of them. I may not have a dog of my own, but my passion for caring for them is anything but second-hand. For over three years, I've been a regular, trusted carer for my cousin's dogs, looking after them across all stages of life — from energetic puppies and playful adults to more gentle senior dogs. This has given me a well-rounded understanding of how differently dogs need to be cared for depending on their age and personality. I’m looking for a lovely dog that I can take for walks and am able to dog sit at their house .I’m usually available on weekdays in the daytime and evening, at weekends and for holidays. I am a First year university student who is home for the holidays where I have all the time in the world, if I have no prior arrangements, I am available 24/7, any day of the week and any time. Unfortunately, my own cat doesn't get on with dogs so I will only be able to walk dogs and dog-sit at the owners home, where I will utilise the resources available to me as instructed.

Irena looked after Eric very well. We've come home to a lovely clean and tidy home. She sent photos regularly so that we could see him enjoying walks. She took into account hot weather conditions and walked him early morning so that he didn't overheat. Very pleased. Thank you

About: Animals have been in my life since birth. Grew up in a rural setting and just love animals and being around them. I do treat them as family members and there is nothing better in the world than a dog's face when they know they are being pampered. Or when a cat chooses you to fall asleep on. Or when a feral donkey decides you are trustworthy. I run an event catering business and as such am only working part time and working on my tiny home part time so I have lots of free time and flexible living. I prefer longer pet sits of 3 nights to 6 months. I only pet sit in a pet's own home. I find this better for them so that they can still have the comfort of familiar surroundings whilst their parents are away.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Dog Sitter – Highly Recommend! We had the absolute best experience with Mandy, who looked after our black Labrador, Gunner, for a week while we were away. From the very first day, it was clear that Gunner was in the most caring and capable hands. Mandy truly spoiled him with multiple walks each day, endless affection, and even surprised him with a new toy that quickly became his favorite! She went above and beyond by sending us daily photos and videos, which brought us so much joy and peace of mind during our holiday. Seeing how happy and relaxed Gunner was made it easy to fully enjoy our time away, knowing he was being loved and cared for just like he would be at home. We can’t thank Mandy enough for treating Gunner like part of her family. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dedicated dog sitter.

About: Welcome all! After sadly losing our own beloved family dog, we have decided to join the site with the hopes of once again filling our home with the joy only animals can bring. Accumulating ten years of dedicated dog-sitting experience, which encompasses both our own beloved pets and others, my partner and I offer a reliable and loving home-away-from-home for your furry family member. Located in a quiet village with open fields right on our doorstep, we provide the perfect serene environment for your dog to enjoy peaceful walks and plenty of fresh air. We understand the importance of routine, safety, and abundant cuddles, and we're committed to providing your dog with a comfortable, happy stay while you're away. You can relax knowing your beloved companion is in experienced, caring hands. I am currently only studying at university so I am at home every day until July 9th where I begin to start part time, weekend only work. My partner Kane works full time on shift work, so there’s usually someone at home for most of the day. We have a fenced garden, and a house that the pet is free to roam around in. We allow pets on the furniture and bed regardless of how much hair they may shed. We also regularly deep clean our home ensuring a clean and safe environment for any pet. If there is any further requirements or questions please contact us.

About: I've owned a dog and also had experience with friend's dogs. I love to walk in nature, so would be able to walk your dog in pretty places, with lots of stimulation :) I currently work from home, so always have time for animals in my care. I am also available at short notice and also at weekends. I have a fenced garden and secure house, so your pet will be safe with me. I dont have a dog crate, so you will need to provide this if required.

My little Betsy had a wonderful time with Joanna and her doggies. She looked like she was smiling in every pic I was sent with updates and was a very tired girl when she got home. Loved Joanna as soon as we met her and instantly knew our pup would be well looked after. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Joanna again, would highly recommend her.

About: I've taken care of multiple dogs since I was small, with variations in size and breed. I have experience with energetic young mixed-breed dogs as well as older dogs with special medical needs. Nothing is too much to provide the care, affection, and training our furry friends require! New to official formal sitting, hence the "1 year". I'm a researcher and a writer working from home in the middle of Peterborough, so I can easily fit let care into my weekly and daily routines. My time is my own to organise, so if a pet needs full attention and care I can give them that, or if they just need company I can bring my work to them! When caring for a pet, that let becomes my main priority! At the moment I'm keen to provide care in the pet owner's home, or indeed outside. Details depend on the pet caring circumstances, but I'll maintain high standards of safety by building trust and maintaining a relationship with the pet and the pet owner.

About: I have always looked after pets since i was little, im really good with dogs and cats and amazing with anxious dogs as i own one so i know the stress they can cause. Im also a dog groomer so i have dealt with my fair share of dogs before. I am really realisable as my family always nakes me look after the animals and they get little photo updates which they love. I currently do not work due to personal reasons which means i have loads of free time to help u guys out with playing with ur pets to feeding to nice walks when u dont have time to. I will always make sure your pets are safe in their environment. I will do what u ask me to do if u request something like for example to put the dog in a crate for any reasons u give me.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for family and friends and have a dog of my own, so I know how important trust and routine are. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work full-time with a very flexible work-from-home schedule, allowing me to be with dogs throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, sitting, and walking on weekdays and weekends, ensuring dogs receive supervision, exercise, walks, and plenty of attention without being left alone. I offer a warm, safe, and loving home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced garden where they can safely play and explore, and my kitchen door faces the garden so I can keep a close eye on them at all times. Whether in my home or yours, I follow each dog’s routine and preferences carefully to help them feel relaxed, secure, and happy.

About: I love pets and I have always been surrounded by them from a young age, until I decided to have my own..the cutie in the picture! Unfortunately Dumbo is no longer with me, and although I am not ready to have another dog at the moment, I still have plenty of love to give. I work remotely so I like to have a doggy to keep me company and to play with during the day. I am available everyday, anytime. I am very flexible just please let me know if you cancel. I have a lovely fenced back garden. Plenty of space around the house to run, play or to cuddle. Within a short distance from my house, there is a natural park for nice evening walks by the lake.

About: I have grown up with 3 dogs which makes me experienced and on multiple occasions I’ve watched them for a week. I love walking and will happily take animals on walks. And I love a cuddle as much as the pet does. I also volunteer for the cinnamon trust walking and looking after elderly and terminally ill people’s pets. I also have a DBS certificate I study at university and am only in for an hour or 2 at a time so taking care of an animal fits into my schedule easily. I work in a bar 2 days a week. Friday I work 5 hours and Saturday I work 9 so I wouldn’t be able to look after pets on Saturday but I could always begin after my shift. I do not care for pets in my home as I am in a flat and pets are not allowed. In terms of looking after pets in your home. I would like to be told anything important or to know if your pet likes to try and escape so I can be more aware of this. I would never try and put contact with a pet if they are uncomfortable. I understand some pets are shy and that needs to be acknowledged.

Thank you so much for taking excellent care of our two doggos. You kindly kept us updated everyday and messaged back quickly when I wanted to check how Peggy and Albie were doing. You went the extra mile and were so thoughtful through the hot weather. You also took amazing care of our house and was wonderfully clean when we got back from our holiday. We would highly recommend you as a dog sitter. Thanks so much.
