Cat Sitting in Poole

“Aljona and her partner are absolutely phenomenal! They were great with communication, sending pictures and updates, and professional. It's been challenging to find someone who cleans the litter well and care for our cats like Aljona and her partner. They also went out of their way to help out with some things around the house that came up while we were away as well. I will definitely book them again for cat drop ins and would love to book them for boarding in their home if we could!!!”

“Sarah was brilliant. Clear communication throughout, lots of photos and she even managed to get my grumpy cat to sit on her lap - she is definitely a cat expert! I would happily ask her to look after Kiwi again.”

“We are so glad that we found Emilee to pop in on our cat while we were away 😊 we would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again! She took fantastic care of our 8 year old cat and always kept us up to the date with pictures too, can’t thank you enough. Xx”

About: I grew up with dogs and understand the need to leave your pooch in the hands of someone you trust. I would be happy to meet up before you put your dog in our care to see if we are the right fit for you and to talk through your dog’s routine/requirements. I work in education (DBS checked) so therefore have a lot of time in the holidays to look after your dog. I also work part time so can offer dog walks/drops ins on days I am off. I have 2 children who adore dogs so I could only offer our services to dogs who are good with children. We would only be able to care for small or medium sized dogs due to their ages. We have a secure garden to provide enrichment for your dog whilst they stay with us. We live close to some gorgeous parks and the beach so could provide some lovely long walks. I work part time so am available Mondays and Fridays and most weekends. We are an active family who enjoy long walks on the weekend so would love to have a dog join the fun. We provide a secure garden for your dog to have enrichment outdoors. We would listen carefully to your dog’s requirements and routine and will provide photos of your dog having lots of fun. We would prefer it if your dog would be happy to sleep downstairs.

About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember - growing up with my own cats and caring for friends’ and family’s dogs. I am an experienced dog-sitter and I’ve walked many local pups which has naturally fit into my daily routine. I’m currently working part time, mostly 4-6 hours a few days a week which I will work around so I have lots of time to care for and play with your pet! My working hours differ day to day but I’m always able to negotiate to a time I am not working, I hope this works for you! I’ll make sure your pet is safe, secure and comfortable at all times within your home, following routines exactly as instructed. In my own home, I have a fenced garden with lots of running space and two older cats who don’t have much experience around dogs, so they would need to be well trained around cats.

“Hannah has been fantastic with our cats again. Highly recommend.”

About: I have grown up with dogs most of life so I do have years of experience in interacting with our 4 legged friends. Unfortunately, my personal circumstances do not allow me to have a dog of my own but I do currently live in a household with 2 springers and I regularly look after my friends 4 year old English springer who I have known and looked after since he was puppy. When in my company, your pup is my main priority and will do all I can to ensure their time with me is an enjoyable one. I love walking and the outdoors so you can be assured your dog will get lots of fresh air and they will be able to run around and play burning off all that energy. I would prefer dog sitting rather than provide boarding as I do not currently have my own home and this way it assures that your dog is their own, safe environment to avoid any additional stress or anxiety. To ensure your dog is cared for in the most effective way, I would like to meet you and your pet before hand so you can put a person to the profile and also your fur baby has an opportunity to know who I am before they are in my care so they are assured I am not a stranger and they feel safe. I will also ask questions such as: feeding habits, what kind of treats they like, how many walks are required and for how long, Can they be left alone and if so, for how long and how they are in social environments so you can leave your pup knowing they are in safe hands and will be following their same routine and of course it goes without saying that you will be provided with regular “pup dates” . I look forward to walking and spending time with your fur babies 🐶🐾 I do work full time hours (9-5) Monday - Friday however, I can assure you your dog will be walked first thing and taken for a lovely long walk in the evening and made a fuss of. I appreciate this routine may not be for everyone however, I hope you wound still consider me as I truly will give your fur baby the best care. I love dogs and have always wanted one of my own however, my current circumstances do not allow me to have one. My love for animals will ensure your fur baby will be in a safe environment and you can guarantee they will have lots of fuss, play, aswell as fun walks. You will also get regular pup dates whilst they are in my care.

“Jacobs was absolutely brilliant, even with the problems at the house, she immediately sorted it for me, thank you!!”

“If I could give Charlotte 10 stars I would. She has been absolutely brilliant! Felix obviously took to her straight away judging by the photos that arrived for us twice a day, and yet he usually takes time to get used to someone he hasn't known before. It was such a weight off our minds to know that he was being well looked after and could stay in his own home. Charlotte is a gem and obviously has a great love for cats and enjoys looking after them. I heartily recommend her.”

About: Me and my parents bought a staffy puppy during lockdown in which I helped to train and take care of him and I now walk him regularly and have walked other dogs for friends when they are away, I am really looking to make this my full time job so any help needed please request!!! I’m currently at uni studying wildlife conservation and have a part time job but I would like to either make this a job on the side or my full time work depending on how many clients I have I have offered to dog walk and house sit as I have my own dog and although he does like other dogs he’s very energetic and can be too much but I’m more than happy to drive to you

“It was such a relief to go on holiday knowing that Kamilla was feeding the cats and giving them lots of love. She is so reliable and I will definitely recommend her.”

About: Hi! I’m a long-time animal lover with over 8 years of pet care experience—and a soft spot for furry (and feathery!) friends. It all started by helping out with my siblings’ pets whenever they were busy with work. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, cuddling, and making sure they didn’t get into too much mischief! Then friends started asking me to care for their pets too, and I’ve been the go-to pet sitter ever since. I even spent a year working as a carer for the elderly, which taught me how to be extra patient and gentle, all things that help when looking after pets with their own unique personalities. I've always wanted a job where I get to hang out with animals and give them the love and attention they deserve. That’s why I became a professional pet sitter because tail wags, happy purrs, and pet snuggles are my idea of a perfect day! I’m currently available 5 days a week, so your pet will get plenty of attention and care whenever you need it! With flexible availability and lots of free time, I’m ready to be your pet’s new best friend—whether it’s for daily visits, playtime, or longer stays. How I care for pets in a pet owner’s home depends on each pet’s needs, but my main goal I follow the owner’s instructions carefully. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, walks, playtime, or special routines to ensure I keep everything consistent. I make sure pets get plenty of attention and exercise, lots of cuddles, and a calm environment where they can relax. If I’m doing overnight stays, I stay attentive through the night and keep a watchful eye to make sure they’re comfortable and stress-free. I also update the owners regularly with photos or messages so they know their furry friends are in good hands. Every pet is different, so I always take time to get to know their personality and preferences to provide the best possible care.

About: With over 8 years of caring for dogs, and currently sharing my home with three furry friends, I understand firsthand the joy and responsibility that comes with pet care. I treat every dog like family, offering personalized attention, plenty of love, and a safe, happy environment. Whether it’s energetic playtime or quiet cuddles, I tailor my care to each dog’s individual needs, because every pup deserves a sitter who truly gets them Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my daily life. Having grown up with dogs and currently caring for three of my own, I’m deeply familiar with their routines, needs, and personalities. Every day, I dedicate time to exercise, play, and cuddle with dogs, ensuring they get plenty of physical activity and emotional attention. Whether it’s a quick walk, a long play session, or just some calm downtime, I prioritize their well-being and happiness throughout the week. I’m flexible and committed to fitting pet care seamlessly around my schedule to provide consistent, loving, and reliable support to every dog I look after When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where dogs feel relaxed and happy. I provide regular meals, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection tailored to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I maintain a clean space with secure areas for rest and play, and I monitor their health and behavior closely to ensure they’re comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their familiar surroundings and routines, helping them stay comfortable and secure. I follow all the owner’s instructions carefully, from feeding schedules to medication, and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. My goal is to make both pets and their owners feel confident and at ease with the care I provide.

About: Having grown up with cats, dogs, hamsters and guinea pigs, I’ve always loved animals. I spent 8 years working as a Registered Veterinary Nurse. Having now stepped away from the profession and after losing my own fur baby a few years ago, I’d love to fill that furry friend void looking after others’ pets. I’m currently taking a career break so have lots of free time mid week (and some weekends depending on notice). I can therefore be very flexible with timings. I am currently only able to look after pets in your home so will ensure to follow your pets’ routines and your preferences as owners.

About: I have walked elderly breeds from a young age, I also had a Yorkshire terrier at 13 weeks old so more used to the little leg side of dog walking but have had the joy of a close relationship with a boarder collie & cocker spaniel so used to high energy also, I'm happy with any size legs & energy I'm up for a challenge too I work part time I have a daughter who loves dogs like myself I love the company & the fur cuddles & kisses, I love the nature & the fun.

About: I've taken care of doggos for most of my adult life, both as a sitter and an owner. I'm familiar with most breeds from Chihuahuas to German Shepards! I have a very open schedule so I will be able to accommodate your schedule and have plenty of time to play with your pups! I do not have any pets of my own at the moment and your pup will have free rein of the house (but can be crated at times as well if you prefer). I also live right next to Poole park so there's plenty of space for your pup to run and sniff around!

About: I grew up with a family dog, giving me a strong understanding of canine care. I have a friendly approach to dogs and love spending time outdoors, ensuring your pet gets plenty of exercise and play. My daughter also loves dogs, creating a nurturing environment for your furry friend; which is why I chose Rover, allowing me to not just care for your dog but also create memories with my daughter as we both love them as if they were ours..I’m committed to providing a safe and caring experience tailored to your pet’s needs.

After school, we love spending time together at home and going for walks, ensuring your dog receives lots of attention and exercise. I’m flexible with my schedule, so you can trust that your furry friend will be well-cared for in our loving environment. In my one-bedroom flat, I prioritize your dog’s safety and comfort. With locked doors and child safety locks on the windows, I ensure there’s no risk of escape. Although I don’t have a garden, I have a designated area for walks and playtime. Additionally, if needed, I can provide a separate room for your pet to feel secure and relaxed. You can trust that your furry friend will be well-cared for in a safe environment.

About: Hiya! We're Jack & Oihane and we're looking forward to spending some time with your littlle or big furry friend. We have always been surrounded by dogs and other pets. Oihane had a cat for many years and took care of many people's dogs on her travels while working for accommodation, from puppies to seniors and very active farm dogs. She loves the company of a dog when going on long walks. Jack had a dog for over 15 years and has taken care of other friend's dogs while Macey was there, he is definitely a dog person and would make sure your dog has lots of fun! We have recently lived with two lovely staffies which we do miss and since we can't have our own at the moment thought, why not enjoy some dog company every now and then and help some dog owners out? So drop us a message and let us know how we can help! We both work full time, but we are free on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, so we can take any bookings from Thursday evenings. We like to wake up early and go for a long walk around the coast or forest and we love catching the sunsets at the end of the day. We have a very spacious 3 bedroom terraced house with garden. We are locates close to Poole train station and we have a good size fenced rear garden to offer some outdoor space while we are at home. We live close to many parks and close to the beach, we love spending time outdoors so your dog will also be offered wonderful and exciting walks and a lovely living room to rest on. We would make a lovely space in the lounge for your dog to feel safe and comfortable.
