House Sitting Peterlee

“Nicole was excellent and I will definitely be booking again. She sent daily photos and took Suzie on some really lovely long walks. She took very good care of the house and I could tell Suzie was really happy to be left in her care. Absolutely thrilled to have found someone as trustworthy as Nicole 🤗”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I've had the joy of owning dogs for the past 17 years, most recently my beloved dog, Bonnie, who sadly passed away at the age of 16. Caring for Bonnie gave me years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of dogs' individual personalities, needs, and routines. While I miss her every day, I'd love the opportunity to spend time caring for other people's pets. Over the years, I've regularly looked after dogs and cats for family and friends, caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Whether it's energetic walks, playtime, feeding, sticking to their usual routine, or simply providing companionship and cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. I am reliable, patient, caring, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether you need a dog walker, pet sitter, or someone to pop in for visits, I'd be delighted to help and look forward to meeting you and your furry family members. I'm currently working full-time, so my availability is as follows: * **Monday & Tuesday:** Available after **6:00 pm** for evening walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. * **Friday:** I finish work at **3:30 pm** and am available from **4:00 pm** onwards. * **Weekends:** I'm available all day on Saturdays and Sundays, making me flexible for walks, drop-in visits, or overnight pet sitting. I'm happy to discuss your pet's needs and will always do my best to accommodate your schedule where possible. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a pet owner's home, I follow their usual routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication needs (if required), and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in familiar surroundings, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel relaxed while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for. I am happy to care for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I always adapt my approach to suit each individual pet's needs.

About: I’ve had pets since I was small. I take care of my friends dogs most weeks with great success. Animals are my passion and I will treat them with the respect they deserve. I work about 8 days a month so I am very flexible. I will take bookings at short notice and will always display my availability I will care for your pet as if it’s my own, Your baby will be in safe hands with me and I will update you through out my time with your pet with photos and messages

“Debs and Dave are two of the nicest people you could ever meet. From the moment they first came to (meet and greet) us I knew my fur babies were in safe hands. With regular photos and videos of the 3 cats obviously enjoying themselves, my home was looked after and respected too. We can’t wait for them to come back!! See you soon many thanks and lots of purrs from us all xx”

About: I’ve worked in a kennel previously and I know the love and affection dogs require when their pawrents are away and I can certainly provide that. I have also graduated from University with a degree in Animal Management so animals are a big part of my life. I am currently at uni only 1 day a week working on a degree in animal management so I have plenty of free time to walk your pooches. On walks, I prioritise your dogs needs and abilities by providing tailored sessions ensuring safe and stimulating environments. Each dogs temperament and fitness level is considered when going out on walks. I focus on their safety and enjoyment whilst providing a stress free environment.

“Sophie was amazing, using Rover for the first time & not having ever left my 2 border terriers overnight at home before was something I’d wanted to do for ages but hadn’t been able to pluck up the courage ! Sophie was so thoughtful, easing my worries about my nervous border by taking time to come & meet them before the house sit which was invaluable. On the day, her calm professional approach resulted in her building a relationship with my nervous border which I am so grateful for & is really beneficial for the future. Thank you so much Sophie I now feel relaxed about planning the next house sit & am looking forward to leaving my dogs in safe hands again”

“Paris was absolutely amazing! I was given regular updates every day, I felt really relieved knowing Monty was being looked after so well, and I’d recommend Paris’s services to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable and caring. Paris came to meet Monty before the sit and really took the time to understand his routine, and my home was immaculate when I came back. It was clear Monty had the time of his life while I was away! Thank you, Paris! :) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“5 stars. Can't say enough good things about Jatuporn. My dog is big, young, and nervous...not easy! But TJ was very patient and understanding with her, accommodating Jo Jo's sensitivity to get her trust. She quickly found the way to Jo Jo's heart by throwing the football with her (endlessly). And they made progress in trust while I was away. She kept me informed via text throughout my trip so I was never worried. I would recommend her without hesitation to other dog owners who need someone to take care of their dog while they are away.”

About: I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision because I’m exactly the same with my own dog, Roo. She’s my daughter, and I would only ever leave her with someone I completely trust. That’s the standard of care I strive to provide for every pet I look after. As a professional dog walker, I hold a Level 3 qualification in Canine Behaviour and a Level 4 qualification in Canine First Aid. Combined with my hands-on experience professionally working with dogs since the age of 14, these qualifications allow me to understand canine body language, recognise signs of stress or illness, and provide safe, enriching care tailored to each dog’s individual needs. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, pet sitting during the day, or providing overnight care in your own home, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience and respect that I give Roo. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality and preferences so they feel safe, comfortable and happy while you’re away. I know how important peace of mind is, so I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos throughout my time with your pet. My priority is always their safety, wellbeing and happiness, giving you confidence that they’re in caring, knowledgeable and professional hands. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I plan my days around the pets I look after. This allows me to provide reliable walks, pet sitting and overnight stays without rushing, ensuring every dog receives the time, attention and enrichment they deserve. My own rescue dog, Roo, is at the heart of my daily routine, so I understand how important consistency, exercise and companionship are. I carefully organise my schedule to meet each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s sticking to their usual walking routine, feeding times, play sessions or simply providing company and reassurance while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves patient, attentive care, and I treat every dog as if they were a member of my own family. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my priority. I take the time to get to know every dog as an individual, understanding their routine, personality, likes, dislikes and any medical or dietary requirements, including allergies. As a professional dog walker with a Level 3 qualification in Canine Behaviour and a Level 4 qualification in Canine First Aid, I’m trained to recognise canine body language and behaviour. This allows me to assess how a dog is feeling and adapt my approach to ensure they remain relaxed, comfortable and happy throughout their time in my care. I’m experienced with crate training and understand that some dogs benefit from having a safe, familiar space to relax. I can also provide quiet, calming areas where dogs can choose to rest away from other animals if they need time to themselves. Every dog is different, and I always respect their individual needs and boundaries. I have a secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor time and share my home with my rescue dog, Roo, and my two cats. However, I appreciate that not every dog is comfortable around other animals. If your dog is nervous or prefers their own space, I can cater to their individual needs and carefully manage their environment to help them feel safe and secure. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel exactly the same about Roo. She’s a member of my family, and I provide every dog in my care with the same patience, kindness, respect and attention that I would want for my own pet. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your companion is in safe, experienced and caring hands.

“Alison and her partner were so lovely with regualar updates and they really took Care of Benjamin and Alba, plenty of walks and lots of cuddle time. Highly recommend them.”

About: I have an 8 year old working Labrador, so I’ve got experience in keeping active dogs happy and stimulated. I love tailoring walks to suit each dog’s age, energy, and personality. This may include long walks, a game of fetch, or a slow stroll with plenty of sniff breaks. I’m currently studying at university with free days each week and I really miss my own dog while I’m away from home. Caring for other people’s dogs is the perfect way to spend that time doing something I love and getting outdoors. I offer dog walking and pet visits at the owner’s home, following their instructions and maintaining their dog’s usual routine and training to keep things comfortable and consistent for the pet.

“Gheorghe was so respectful of our home whilst staying over and watching our two dogs. I got regular updates, pictures and it’s clear my dogs were very well cared for. I’ll definitely book with Gheorghe again!”

“Maya was very friendly and attentive with our little Tino. He took to her straight away and didn't look back at me when leaving. I received photos and an update with Tino cuddled in on the sofa - very cute. We look forward to Mayas next visit in a couple of weeks would very much recommend- thank you 😊💙”

“What can I say about the wonderful Craig. Absolutely rescued us by looking after our two dogs during our wedding. One dog is particularly difficult as he has epilepsy, so there’s always the fear of seizures and vet’s trip. Craig accepted to help us when others wouldn’t and we’re so grateful he did. The boys were so well looked after and so happy when we seen them. Craig knew we wanted them to be at the wedding so tried to get some pics in bow ties for us, bought us a wedding card and even helped us to carry some stuff in when we returned. Honestly I can’t praise or thank him enough. Definitely he using Craig again ❤️❤️”

About: Hello. I'm Dan, 34 years old and a lot of free time giving me the opportunity to help you and your pets. I'm an avid animal lover of all types and would welcome all invitations to walk, watch over and treat your best friends as mine too. I like to stay active, keeping a regular walking distance everyday and would happily welcome company on those walks. Whether that be short routes around the neighbourhood or a much longer trek in the hopes of tiring them out by the end of the day. I am a licenced first aider with lots of experience fostering dogs and cats in the past with severe medical conditions and other special requirements. In those situations I'm well trained to remain calm under pressure and skilled at assisting your pet in times of need.

About: Experienced dog‑lover returning to Rover after some time away. I previously cared for a Spaniel of my own and have years of hands‑on experience with energetic, affectionate breeds. I offer a calm home, long walks, enrichment, and plenty of attention. I’m reliable, communicative and always send regular updates so you know exactly how your dog is doing. Pet First Aid trained and confident with a range of temperaments — your dog will be in safe, caring hands. I'm really lucky to work hybrid and flexibility 90% of my week. I am more than happy to work with parents to ensure that any alone time is limited and that their dog has the best stay possible. I’d like to think that you are getting a quality service where your dog is treated as my own and will be taken on quality nature walks whilst in my care.

“Bailey was a brilliant dog sitter. He was on time for the booking and our dogs instantly liked him. He was very respectful of our home and the dogs were incredibly calm, one suffers with separation anxiety, so was expecting the opposite!😂 He sent an update of them both sleeping and made us feel at ease! Would definitely book dog sitting with Bailey again!”

“Kay gave us all the information we needed. She met early to discuss & view the house. Bella was very comfortable with her. Kay took her out for a walk & sent a photo to us . That reassured us & made us relaxed for the evening. Bella was sitting on her knee when we returned ,so calm & happy.”

About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds, growing up with large breeds from being a young age has made me confident with dogs of all temperaments and backgrounds. Being a registered veterinary nurse, I have worked with dogs of all life stages and can provide the essential care they need tailored to them. I work weekdays, but can provide late night check ins for short walks or feeding. I am also available for weekend visits at all times to provide any and all daily requirements I always ensure pets are kept safe, making sure they are kept in a fenced area away from other dogs and people. When on walks they stay close to my side and away from any roads
