About: I’m fully insured, DBS checked and per first aid trained. I absolutely adore animals, from walks to cuddles im there! I’ve trained 2 puppies so I’m extremely patient. It’s important for my clients to be able to go away and enjoy life without worrying about their pooch at home, that’s where I come in. I’ll send you daily updates and pictures so you know your kept in the loop. Your house will be exactly as you left it except your pup will be a bit sleepier. I pride myself in my work. I’m a full time dog walker so I can work my hours and time to work around the dogs in my life. This means if you have a bouncy springer he’s more than welcome to join me on all 3 of my walks or if you have a bulldog I’m more than happy to take them on small adventures and work my schedules so I can pop in throughout the day to insure toilet and cuddle breaks. I only offer pet care services in your home, this insures pups feel safe and at ease. I like to stick to their routine. Being in their own home means your pup is surrounded by their life and your belongings taking away the anxiety that would usually come with a kennels. I’m fully DBS checked to take the weight off your mind and I provide my certificate at the free meet & greet.

“Alex was a super sitter for Caesar… not only did he throw himself into Caesars care, but he really made sure Caesar had plenty of enrichment experiences during his stay. His videos and photos were also a great way to see how happy Caesar was. Then when I had a horrendous train journey home Alex stayed longer than the booking to help care for Caesar. What a great find.”


“Courtney was wonderful! She looked after two dogs and a cat for few days while we were away and we couldn’t have left the animals with a better person. All three instantly warmed up to her, they had nice walks, they were well looked after and she kept the house immaculate too! We received regular updates and photos! We can highly recommend Courtney!”


“I would highly recommend Laura as a dog sitter. She took amazing care of our two dogs. She was prompt in responding to any questions and sent regular updates, including photos, while we were away. We came back to a very happy and well cared for dogs. Will be using her services again very soon.”


“We just wanted to say a huge thank you to Joe for looking after our two adopted dogs while we were away. Joe is reliable and friendly who is clearly really good with dogs. Joe has kept us updated whilst away and our dogs were very happy. Both of our dogs have health conditions and Joe had no issues administering their daily meds. Joe also left our house clean and tidy which was appreciated after a long dat of travelling back. We would highly recommend Joe to anyone, and hopefully he will agree to dog sit for us again in the future.”


“Amy is absolutely lovely, trustworthy, reliable, and we would not hesitate to recommend her. Prior to our booking, Amy popped over to our house so that we could all meet and talk through Bob's daily routine etc, we knew straight away that she was going to be perfect. She spent the whole day with Bob, providing us with lots of updates and pictures. They had as great time together, and we came home to a very happy and contented dog!”


About: Insured & DBS checked :) I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for both senior dogs and playful pups. I loved helping care for my family's elderly dog, including managing daily medications for heart failure, so i understand the important of gentle, attentive care. More recently, I've helped raise a baby puppy (Willow - in my profile picture!). So I'm confident with everything from toilet training to keeping up with high energy! I truly love dogs and people alike, and would love to get to know yours and treat it like family. I drive and am open to opportunities outside the given zone with enough notice! I'm currently taking some time out of full time employment so am fully flexible to work to your needs given enough notice! I'm very open to working around your schedule and ensuring your pup gets the best out of every day with me. I believe pets often feel most comfortable and secure in their own familiar environment, so I'm more than happy to care for them in your home. I'll stick to their usual routines, always respect your space and ensure your pet feels safe and relaxed whilst you're away. I'm tidy, respectful and will treat your home as if it were my own. This set up works best for me as i have my own dog and others working from home in my space. However, Willow, my dog, is often used as a training dog in puppy classes and is a great calm influence if you would like a social aspect on walks for your pet.

About: I have had dogs since I was born of all breeds and sizes and now have my own lab. We love to go on runs and long walks with other dogs. I understand the different temperaments and needs of different dogs and wish to make them as comfortable as possible whilst not with their owners. I currently have a 9-5 job but am few any evenings/ early mornings and weekends to help out with whatever your dog requires. I am also available between 12-2 to do any toilet visits. I have a 2 year old Labrador who is very friendly with other dogs. Whilst we currently live in a small flat we are very close to the sea so tend to go for a swim every day which is his favourite!

“Amy is brilliant at what she does! I booked Amy to look after my Staffie Marla last weekend. I was extremely nervous about going away and leaving her, as I've never left her with anyone before. Amy was super friendly professional and very reassuring. She was amazing with Marla, giving her lots of cuddles and walks! She was intouch with me giving me regular updates and photos which really made my time away special knowing my Marla was totally happy ?. I returned home to my smiling staffy, 1 very happy mumma! I will be using Amy in the future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to my friends and family ❤️”


About: I have been with Rover for 2 years and continued to provide doggy day care for a rescued staff. I also regularly walk and look after my friends' and neighbours' dogs. I work Monday to Friday from home so have some availability for house sitting and day care during the week. The weekends are best as I can then take them on longer walks. I have a terraced garden which is raised and then has immediate access to the playpark that my house backs onto. I live alone so you can be assured your dog will be looked after by me and there are no children or other housemates .

“Sophia was very attentive and used her initiative when our puppy had an accident! She sent us updates throughout the day. We felt reassured that Sophia was taking great care of Dougie.”


About: I always liked being around animals and when I was young we adopted a cat and a couple of years later a dog too! I got to learn how to take good care of them on a day-to-day basis, and gained experience in handling pet visits, care after surgery and managing their requirements. Our family had multiple self-trained dogs before, so I can assure you that yours will be in safe hands as well :) Looking forward to working with you and your pet! :D I'm a university students who likes to move, go out a lot and explore! I'm quite flexible as I don't have to be in every day and I'm also happy to hop in before and after lectures. I'm sure we will be able to find a time that fits us both! I consider myself a patient and cooperative person with both dogs and cats of all kind! I always pay attention to their body language to make sure they are feeling well and comfortable in their environment. Additionally, I make sure that your pet get their daily movement and engagement by walks and playing, and of course to receive proper nutrition and hygiene. I even enjoy having small training sessions with them! Every pet is different so please let me know about their requirements and needs!

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 5 years old and I’ve grown to love and take care of them. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets..." It would fit perfectly as I have flexible schedule with my classes so I can take the dogs on walk or feed cats during anytime in the evenings:) I’m ready to look after your dearest pets the way you want and do everything in my power to make them feel safe and loved while you’re away:)

“Couldn’t say anything more positive about Chloe. She was very quick at responding to our request to house sit with our little Cavapoo. We were sent photos and updates which was honestly amazing. Luna has certainly made a new friend for life. I couldn’t recommend Chloe enough. Already booking further dates in.”


About: I grew up with multiple dogs, often pet sit for neighbors and friends, and walk my friends dogs when they are too busy to do so themselves. I also have experience with overnight dog-sitting and dog boarding. I have taken classes regarding dog health and have interned at All Pets Animal Hospital in Encinitas California. I have personally cared for dogs with varying medical conditions which has made me flexible and has provided me with skills necessary to care for dogs with specific needs. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and want to give them the attention and love they deserve. I also love being outdoors, so I am always willing to take long walks or even take dogs on a trail run!

About: I have always owned animals.. from a dog that grew up with me, whom I adored, multiple cats I truly loved and took care of, to 5 beautiful rats! I am an absolute animal lover. I’ve finally moved away from home where my grandma was a regular dog sitter (to which I ended up walking the dogs!) to a flat where I’m feeling lonely, I can’t afford a pet of my own, so it would be an honour to share my home with a pet, even for a little while I am a trained photographer so guaranteed you will walk away with professional pictures of your beloved pet, just because I love the subjects! I am currently working weekends, free most weekdays, I want to leave my current job, I would be happy to gain rapport with Animal owners for this to become my sole job! I will understand that no matter the animal, they will be my boss, I will dedicate my time to your loved animal, whatever routine they follow will be implemented to the letter!

Sophie P.
“Sophie has been walking my Portuguese Water Dog, Jello for a few months now. He is quite a nervous boy but completely relaxes and trusts Sophie to walk him. She takes him to his favourite places (the beach and the park) and will always send me photos of their walk. Sophie collects Jello from my home when I'm at work, so I leave keys with her in the morning so she can just let herself in. Should I ever need Jello to be looked after over night, I would confidently leave Jello with Sophie, with the confidence that he would be happy with her.”
