House Sitting in Plymouth

“Mary and Libby had the best time whilst we were on holiday. We were given lots of updates and pics and felt completely reassured that Libby was well looked after. Our home was spotless too when we came home.”

“Skye was immense and everything you could need in a sitter. She is clearly an animal lover and we came home to find our dog as happy as can be. He’d been amazingly looked after and she had helped his training along. I’d 100% use Skye to help out with care in the future.”

“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.”

About: Hi im Emma, I work from home as a benefits and pensions advisor for Age UK. I also enjoy volunteering for Cinnamon Trust to get my doggy fix. I have lots of experience walking dogs of all natures and temperments and love to spoil them playing tug or with balls and sticks. I have my own family dog in France, and have grown up with both cats and dogs . I have always had pets until recently renting wont allow. I have years of experince both sitting dogs and cats alike- they say your either a dog person or a cat person- i cant agree, I love them both. Always spoiling them, giving them treats and head massages. I currently work from home four days a week so i am able to be with your baby all the time. I run a weekly basketball group on a thursday evening where i am away for 2 hours and occasionally walk a dog in my local area, although this is only in the evening for 20 mins on a tuesday. I can be with your baby most of the time with the exception on 1 hour on a tuesday and two hours max on a thursday.

“Jasmine was great with my dog Bacchus, he was very happy and immediately felt comfortable. I received plenty of updates and photos which is great! I will definitely be rebooking in future, thank you very much!”

About: I have 25+ years of experience looking after family cats, dogs and exotic animals. Currently studying Ecology and Conservation at University of Plymouth, looking for work with animals along side my studies. As a University student I have a lot of spare time when I am not studying and although I engage in a lot of volunteer work, I still have ample time for pet sitting. I like to engage in fun activities like fetch, basic training, walking, and running to ensure your pet stays active and happy. I am an engaging companion and strive to provide an enjoyable experience for them.

“Joe, did a great job looking after Rusty for us. He kept in touch via a WhatsApp link and it was obvious that Rusty felt very relaxed and happy in his company. Joe sorted out some good walks and flexed Rusty’s normal schedule so they were walking in the cool of the evening rather than the midday heat. Joe was also kind enough to keep plants watered whilst we were away. We’d happily ask Joe to sit for us again.”

“Another amazing sit from Sara, looking after our dog and cat. Sara took great care of both, including some lovely walks with Grace. She also managed an issue with the house flawlessly. THANK YOU!”

“Huge thanks to Sandro for sitting with our English Bulldog, Buster, for 9 days. Sandro arrived on time, was a great communicator throughout and sent regular updates, kindly cooked some chicken for Buster and when we returned home the house was clean and tidy and Buster was content. I highly recommend Sandro as a trusted and conscientious dog sitter . I will definitely check if Sandro is available for any future trips. 😊. Nicola”

“Sophia took care of our 14m old working cocker spaniel whilst we were away for the weekend and was nothing short of exceptional - I’ve raved about her to everyone I’ve spoken to since. Her experience with cocker spaniels was really evident right from the start which gave her confidence and understanding with Percy as well as reassurance for us. Sophia provided regular updates over the course of the weekend, provided Percy with the attention and care he needed and was trustworthy and respectful in our home. We couldn’t ask for more. We will certainly book Sophia again and I’m very confident in recommending her to others.”

About: ❗Please note that prices are subject to travel cost and time! 🐶🐈‍⬛ 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 :) 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! I'm looking forward to working with you and your pet! :))

About: My experience with just dealing with pets is having my own animals from young. I've had fish, hamster, guinea pigs and dogs. My first dog was a rescued Boxer, Ruben. My first proper puppy was a Pug, Dexter, then we rescued Alfie another Pug at the same age as Dexter (around 4yrs.) My house sitting and pet experience was living in an annexe above my landladys garage. She had a working cocker, Zeva. She'd trust me with looking after her house and Zeva while she had to go away for work or on holiday. That was over 2yrs of me living there. I even took Zeva away with my boyfriend and I as we went to Bournemouth for a weekend I was looking after her. We got a pet friendly accomodation and she had the best time on the beach and in the sea playing with her ball. I work 3 days a week, so have plenty of time for sitting and walking pets. I like to walk daily, so dog walking is well suited with my lifestyle. I care for pets in an owners home by communicating with the owners in the first instance to see what responsibilities they expect of their sitter to make sure their animals are in perfect care.

“Brilliant. Above and beyond.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and temperaments since I was 10. Friends, neighbours, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets.

I live with my girlfriend in a safe, quiet area of Lipson, and we have a fully fenced garden that’s perfect for play and potty breaks. I provide a calm, supervised environment and can accommodate different routines, including crating if needed. Your pet will always be cared for as part of our home.

“Hi Sam, thank you so much for looking after Maui yesterday! We just moved to new place so my golden is still very unsure of new places, but Maui loved Sam from the very first initial meeting!
