“Tara was great, it’s the first time I have had someone in my house to look after my dogs and Tara was incredibly trustworthy, I felt at ease from the moment we met. Kind caring and will definitely be booking Tara again x”

About: Pets have always been part of my life. I’m gentle, patient and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet like family, with plenty of love and care. I work from home always, which gives me plenty of flexibility to give your dog attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks and visits, including weekends and weekdays. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure community garden and two friendly dogs who are used to having dogs and Cats companies. I can keep the pets separated when needed and provide a calm, supervised environment tailored to their individual needs.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young, having 3 family dogs in the home. I love the outdoors and walking loads too for the more adventurous dogs too! I work hybrid so have the flexibility to WFH meaning lots of cuddles and toilet breaks, plenty of walks and engagement. I also work half days on Friday so have the availability to walk on Friday afternoons too. I am happy to view homes before dog sitting and understand the environment in which your pet lives in, will require the basic needs of your dog before hand and learn about their habits (no off lead etc)

“We are so grateful to have found Julie and lucky that she had space to look after our 2 lovely feline family members Julie is so caring and nurturing. Our younger cat Tinsel is very nervous of people and I was quite worried about leaving him for a week as I thought he would not come in the house..how wrong I was. Julie worked her magic and he came in every night for her, letting her cuddle and fuss him and eating his meals for her. It's a miracle as he won't let anyone other than us go near him Our elderly lady Sasha was another worry as at 20 she has her routine and being part Siamese she still loves a lot of attention from us. But Julie looked after her so well and we felt very reassured Julie really understands cats, she gets to know them and she is in time with their personalities To top it all off Julie washed our towels and bedding, hung them out, cleaned and tidied and cooked our tea!!! She's an angel. 10 stars”

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have spent my whole life caring for animals. Over the years, I’ve regularly looked after pets for friends and family while they were away, including feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and making sure they felt comfortable and loved in their owners’ absence. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own, paying close attention to their routines, needs, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply some company and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of care and attention while you’re away. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend lots of time with the pets in my care. Whether your pet enjoys company, playtime, regular walks, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I have a secure fenced garden and a friendly indoor cat. While she is gentle and calm around other animals, she can be a little nervous around unfamiliar pets. To ensure a stress-free environment for everyone, I can keep her on a separate floor of the house when needed. My home has three floors, providing plenty of space to safely separate pets if required. I will always make sure that both your pet and my cat are comfortable, happy, and well cared for during their stay!

“I dont know what I'd do without Faye. Coco is a picky customer and she has warmed up to Faye demanding cuddles and attention. I dont have worries that Coco maybe feeling anxious or bored at all. At the end of the sit, Coco always seems happy and full of content. Faye is the perfect sitter, puts effort in to making sure Coco is happy and well looked after and she even tidied up and left the house lovely and clean. Thanks for being brilliant Faye! Xx”

“Ellie was the perfect sitter for our troublesome duo, communication was brilliant & she left the house spotless. The dogs seemed very happy too which is the most important part.”

“Jordan was excellent at looking after our two dachshunds, one of which has a disability and therefore his needs are quite particular. It was a long day, 6.30am - 8pm house sit but Jordan patient and kind and was able to keep us posted throughout the day. Both dogs were happy and took to Jordan really well. 100% would have her back for another house sit.”

“Megan was brilliant from start to finish. I have two labs and one of them is very nervous. She was happy to come and meet them beforehand and my nervous dog loves her! She kept me updated throughout her stay and the house was immaculate. Our dogs are usually quite stressed when we return but they weren’t this time and it was lovely to see!”

About: I’m passionate about creating a safe and happy environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. With plenty of time to dedicate to your furry friends, I’m available weekends and week days to ensure your pet receives the attention they deserve. My home is perfect for dogs to relax and play. It’s just myself and my little 5-year-old pug, who is friendly, playful, and eager to make new friends. We also have a spacious, secure grass garden where your dog can enjoy fresh air and exercise in a safe environment. I work from home, which gives me plenty of time to play with and care for your beloved dogs! I’m available for boarding seven days a week, including both weekdays and weekends, ensuring your furry friends get all the attention and love they deserve. At my home, pets are treated like family. I create a safe and loving environment where they feel relaxed and happy. Since I work from home, I’m always around to give plenty of attention and playtime. I share my home with our friendly 5-year-old pug, who loves making new doggy friends. We have a spacious and secure grass garden that offers plenty of room for running, playing, and exploring safely. Whether your dog enjoys snuggles on the couch, fun outdoor activities, or quiet moments to rest, I tailor the care to suit their individual needs.

About: Dogs have always been a passion of mine, I have grown up with dogs and dreamed of the day I could have my very own! Whenever I can you’ll find me walking the dogs, playing, training, napping…. I have experience with a variety of animals, hamsters, ferret to cats & dogs, farm animals like sheep & cows, horses too. After recently changing careers I’m now available for any of hours the day and week to accommodate for any busy schedules clients may have & special requirements their pets may need. I have a dog park local too me, at my own cost I pay for this and take the dogs here for a safe and secure location.

About: I’ve loved dogs, especially big breeds, for as long as I can remember. Ive grown up surrounded with Labradors and often look after my mum’s two, Hope and Bramble, who are both reactive, so I’m used to handling (being a maid) to both of them and their individual needs (it’s okay they make up for it with cuteness) I can’t currently have a dog of my own due to my landlord’s permissions, so I’m looking to get my dog fix by giving yours plenty of walks, cuddles and attention! 💖 I currently work full time during the week as a project manager in the railways, and I am in the last couple months of my degree. I would love to help out other working dog parents on evenings or weekends - you can have the night off and your baby will be safe with me x Whilst I am unable to petsit at my home, I have my own transport so I am happy to homestay at your property when required and provide regular video/call updates as required whilst you are away. My fiance and I are also active hikers so bonus points if you have a big baby who would like to join us on our adventures sometimes! I’d love to build up relationships with the owners as well as the pups! 🌸

About: I've been a lifelong dog lover and owner. Apart from the Yorkshire terrier I had as a child, I've always been a fan/owner of rescue dogs, all shapes n size's n ages n medical needs and more. I'm happy to give animals any medication they may need, I understand if any pets have fears about other dogs, or objects. I can appreciate if you or your pet have any routines that need to be followed, and I will always abide by any rules/needs you and your pet have. I've experience of nervous dogs. I've also self funded my level 3 qualification in canine first aid, and I'm always keen to learn more about animals, dogs in particular, their psychology needs, training, behaviour. And I looked after a friend's housecat in January, so I've learned to change litter trays, and the importance of keeping housecats safe. My friends cat needs medication at set times through the day, so I got up early to give this, I adapted to the needs of the cat, and I'd do the same for any animal. It is a long time since I had rabbits, guinea pigs etc, but if you can educate about what you require me to do for your pet, then I'm eager to learn! Currently I help to care for my elderly father part time, but I have plenty of time to care for your pet needs. I don't have any children, and are unable to have my own pets , so I'd love to help other people care for their pets. I'm very adaptable, I drive my own car, I'm happy to work around your schedule. All I want to do is keep your pet and yourself happy. I adapt to whatever the situation I'm in presents to me. I understand that as humans are unique, so are our pets too. Keeping pets to routine they are used to me matters hugely to me, and equally keeping pets safe is of the utmost importance to me. As is respecting your and your pets privacy, I would never take a photo of your pet without permission, and I'd never post on social media. When I had my own dogs, I'd get up and let them into the garden if needed, then a cuddle and fuss, give them a little bit of breakfast, I'd have a cuppa, get dressed, and we would go for a walk. Then back home, a clean up if needed, a treat for them. If they wanted to play with toys then we would, if they wanted a nap they had one. Then another walk in the afternoon, then their main meal around 5pm, a dental stick around 6.30pm. Then more play if wanted, outside in the garden. Or snuggling on the sofa with me. I've tended to have mature dogs who enjoyed snoozing, but I was happy to go with whatever the dogs wanted. If my dogs needed it, they were bathed outdoors, as my bathroom is small lol.

“John has been great, he sat for our terrier and cat last weekend, it was mad hot but he made every effort to walk our dog early and late to avoid the heat. He had great communication before the booking and kept us updated during the stay too., would recommend and we have another stay booked too.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my wider since I was young, having a dog in my direct family since I was 13. When I moved away from home, I had some pet-less years but more recently since 2024, I became a cat dad to 2x 13yr old Short hairs. I work remotely and usually from home - so I can always travel with my laptop if needs be. Otherwise I start at 8am and finish at 4pm for morning and night drop ins. I lead an active lifestyle, so I can keep your pets active with me, if they need that energy expenditure I am aware of the care needed when entering a new space, especially keeping routine for pets and spaces hospitality tidy. A stranger in a new space is always daunting, but I lead with care.

“Rebecca took amazing care of our 100 lb anxious dog and also our home - treating it with respect & keeping it tidy! We will absolutely use her in the future and would recommend her to anyone”

About: I’m a doctor and Pet First Aid & CPR certified, with additional training in feline behaviour. I genuinely love pets and have cared for all sorts of catsa and dogs with different personalities and little quirks 😊 I only board one household at a time, so your cat gets plenty of attention and space. For me, it’s not just about food and litter, I keep an eye on their mood, eating, grooming and how comfortable they are, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos along the way. My home is calm with no children or other pets, and has got large windows and lovely views for them to enjoy while they settle in. 🐾 I’m currently preparing for an exam, so I’m home most of the day. I’ll either be studying or spending time with your pet, so they’ll get plenty of company, attention and cuddles. I understand how important it is for cats and dogs to keep to their usual routine, so I always try to keep their feeding, playtime and sleep routine as familiar as possible. 🐾 I know leaving your pet with someone else can feel like a big deal, so I treat every pet as I’d want someone to treat mine.I’m specifically careful with their food, medication, exercise and any little instructions you leave me. My home is quiet, clean, pet-free and child-free, so your pet can have a calm space to settle in and feel at home
