“Penelope has looked after Howie several times and always does an amazing job. He gets excited as soon as we turn into her street because he knows what a great time he’s going to have. He always comes home a very happy and worn out fella from all the playing and love he gets. I can’t recommend Penelope highly enough, I know she looks after him so well and cares for him as if he was her own. Thank you Penelope!”

About: I have a 4 year old choc lab so have experience looking after a large, strong excitable dog. My previous choc lab was 14 when we lost him. I would be happy to look after a large dog but think a small dog would also be a treat. I work during the week so would only be available weekends & I don't drive so would be happy to drop in or walk your pet in & around my local area. I am flexible & happy to work round you. I would be guided by you entirely as to what your dog can & can't do, your preferences & would like to arrange a visit/walk prior to booking so we are all happy needs of your pet will be met. I am available for dog boarding or Doggy day care on both Saturdays & Sundays. We have some wonderful long walks in Hamworthy & Upton. I live in a house & have a fenced off back garden. Your dog will be treated as part of the family & will not be left unattended while in my care.

About: I will look after your dog with the same love and care that I give my own. Having grown up with dogs, I understand how much they mean to their families and the importance of keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. While you’re away, your pet will have a loving home filled with attention, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I’ll make sure their routine is followed, their needs are met, and they feel secure until you return. We have 3 cats, 7 chickens (outside enclosure) and a tortoise (hybernates during the winter) who are all used to dogs and don't take up much time so I can take care of your fur baby. During weekends and annual leave I am available to take care of your dog and give it a loving home whilst you are away. I also have days off during the week so am available on an ad-hoc basis. I have an enclosed garden with a small wall but will not leave your dog unattended when outside. I live near to the beach and green area for walks and play. We have an open plan family living and dining room so your dog has constant company. I plan to follow any training and rules you have for your pet and understand the importance of maintaining your routine and rules as much as possible for the comfort or your pet and your own confidence.

About: I believe every pet has their own personality — I adapt walks, playtime, and routines to match their comfort and energy level. Calm, confident handling: Whether it’s a shy rescue, a high-energy pup, or a senior with limitations, I know how to keep pets feeling safe and understood. Safety first: I’m attentive on walks, trained in pet first-aid basics, and mindful of potential hazards and triggers. Genuine connection: I treat every pet like they’re my own — building trust through patience, consistency, and plenty I currently working part time, and most of my spare time I spend with my little pomeranian, who is the friendliest dog ever, and definitely would benefit from contact with an another charming four-legged friend. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space free of hazards, toxic plants, and unsafe items. Pets have access to cozy rest areas, fresh water, enrichment toys, and safe outdoor time (if requested).

“I have recently used Daniel as a sitter for my dog Spark and I would highly recommend him. We were in the area for a day and needed someone to have Spark when we visited the water park. I felt a bit apprehensive due to not being familiar with Poole. Daniel was really helpful from the start and I felt immediately comfortable leaving Spark with him. He communicated with me really well which helped me plan our day. He let me know how the day was going and sent pictures. It was obvious Spark really enjoyed his day with Daniel. I would definitely use Daniel again if we return to Poole.”

“We left Honey with Camilla for the first time after having had a meet and greet at a local park. she communicated with us well, sending pics and updates. Honey played nicely with their border collie and was fine when we collected her. We would be happy to recommend Camilla and would use her again in the future”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly believe there’s nothing better than a wagging tail and happy paws. I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, including rescues with special needs. Big or small, every dog gets the same love, patience, and attention they deserve. I only study part-time, so I’ve got plenty of time (and energy!) to spend with your pup. I’m free most days unless you see a date blocked out specifically. Life can be a little unpredictable, so if a special circumstance comes up, just send me a message - chances are we can work something out! I provide a calm, welcoming home where visiting dogs can relax and feel part of the family. My fully enclosed garden is always open for toilet breaks and a good sniff around. I have a gated utility room that serves as a dog retreat for those who are crate trained. Dogs are welcome on the furniture (because cuddles matter!), but I also have plenty of dog beds around the house if you’d prefer to keep those habits consistent. My three older, well-socialised dogs are good companions for play or quiet time, so your pup will have steady company without the chaos. I have no children or cats, and we’re just steps away from Upton Country Park—meaning scenic walks and fresh air are always close at hand. I adapt my routine to your dog’s individual needs - energy level, training stage, and comfort cues—so they feel safe, happy, and right at home

“Thank you so much to Aljona for looking after Ram today so that we could visit Monkey World. He ran straight in and settled immediately and was very happy when I picked him up. Aljona kept me updated with photographs and messages. If we are ever in the area again we would definitely use her and would recommend her to anyone who is on holiday and needs someone to look after their dog”
