“Georgina swooped in to look after our dog Moose at the last minute sure to some unforeseen changes with our already arranged sitter. She was brilliant with Moose and he clearly loved spending time with her! She sent us regular updates and photos and took brilliant care of both Moose and our home. She is a great sitter and we will absolutely be booking her again.”

“Beth did a great job looking after our 'little man' who can sometimes be a bit of a handful. Communicated well and left the house neat and tidy. Would thoroughly recommend.”

About: Hi, I’m your friendly neighbourhood pet sitter in Stoke-on-Trent, here to spoil your furry family members while you’re away. I grew up in a home full of animals, so being surrounded by wagging tails, purrs, and happy energy is my natural state. I share my life with two cats of my own, and I’ve cared for a variety of pets for friends and clients—each with their own personality, needs, and little quirks. I love taking the time to get to know every pet and turning each visit into their own mini-holiday at home. From energetic puppies and playful kittens to calm senior pets, I’m experienced with different ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable administering medication, following specific routines, and adapting to what your pet needs—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, exercise, or simply quiet companionship. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave them behind. That’s why I focus on clear and reassuring communication, with regular updates, photos, and videos so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own: with patience, care, and genuine affection. My goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. My availability can vary during the week due to my work pattern, but I always aim to be transparent and flexible. I’m always available for overnight sitting, and on some days I’m also available full-time. I can offer early morning routines, as well as afternoon and evening visits depending on the day. On some days I’m free from the morning through to early afternoon, while on others I’m available later in the day, usually after 8pm. I’m always happy to discuss specific visit times in advance to make sure they fit both your routine and your pet’s needs. If you have a particular schedule in mind, just send me a message and I’ll do my best to accommodate it. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your instructions carefully—from feeding and medication to home security and routines—so your pet and your home stay safe and well cared for. I respect your space, keep everything tidy, and treat your home with the same care I give my own. I take time to help each pet feel relaxed and comfortable with me, whether that means walks and playtime, gentle interaction, or simply quiet company. I never force attention and always adapt to your pet’s personality and pace—whether they’re energetic, affectionate, or a little more reserved. With clear communication, regular updates, and a calm, reliable presence, my goal is to give you complete peace of mind while your pet enjoys a safe, familiar environment at home.

“Charley was lovely. On time and seemed to handle our fur babies well considering the two doggos can be a handful. Looking forward to continuing to work with Charley.”

About: I’ve had pets since childhood, I am experienced caring for energetic puppies and senior animals, and truly enjoy spending time with pets while meeting all needs. I adore all animals and would love to get to know your fur babies! I work from home 4 days a week meaning I am flexible in terms of when I can attend your home to look after your pets. I enjoy my fitness so taking pets on walks at lunch works perfectly for me and I am flexible on most weekends. I am used to pets with medical issues and have extreme attention to detail when it comes to your pets. I have dealt with reactive dogs and been in difficult situations making me super aware of my surroundings and allowing me to protect your pets further. I am patient with shy animals and will always entertain those pets which love to cause chaos!

About: I've grown up with a Doberman, when I went to uni I volunteered at a dogs home for 1 year and since then I volunteered at a specialist German Shepherd rescue centre in Portsmouth and used BorrowMyDoggy for a year. Currrently on long term leave before a winter seasonal job, I cannot own a dog of my own due to my lifestyle being incompatible. I've grown up with big dogs and have previously worked with german shepherd rescue centres and other rotweillers, they are just big lovable giants. I'm that friend that thinks 15 miles is walkable, love any excuse to get outside, I'm also getting back into my running after an injury, so happy to bring the four legged friends along on training days.

“Harriet did a great job of looking after our boys (3 labradors and a tabby cat). I would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a house and animal sitter.”

Nicola W.

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I currently have a cane corso. I am proficient with any size or breed of dog (please no banned breeds) I am passionate about keeping your dog happy healthy and comfortable. I can cater to nearly every desired schedule, wants and needs. The only service I don’t offer is boarding in my own home due to my big boy being young & a tad boisterous. I will follow your instructions to a tee, whatever your dog/dogs wants and needs are, I can facilitate & cater to. Timed medications ? Done, specific feeding schedule, done.

“Jackie was fantastic. We did a meet ahead of the sitting and she was so great with Luna. Nice, calm and kind. She was at our house for 24 hours and took Luna out, played with her and generally made sure she had a nice time. She kept me up to date with pics as well. The house was left clean and tidy and Luna was very happy. Will definitely use again and recommend 100%.”

About: Hi, I’m Jasmine! I’m a reliable, caring, and trustworthy animal lover who understands that pets are part of the family. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m committed to providing the highest level of care and making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, so I’m available for evening walks, weekend walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’ll always treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in safe hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently work full time Monday to Friday. I am available most evenings and weekends for walks, overnight stays, drop ins and lots of fun! I absolutely love animals! No matter the size we will have lots of fun weather that’s walking, relaxing or playing. Your pet’s safety will always be my top priority. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep dogs on a lead unless you’ve specifically requested otherwise in a safe, secure area, avoid unsafe situations, make sure they always have access to fresh water, and ensure they receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise. I’ll also respect your home’s security by locking doors and gates and making sure your pet is safe and comfortable before I leave.

“I cannot tell you how amazing Isi has been. For the first time ever I felt like I didn’t have to worry about our Sid. Isi sent pictures and updates daily and nothing seemed too much trouble. Cannot recommend enough xx”

About: I have owned dogs and cat since childhood Currently own a jackapoo. Age 8 and a cat aged 9 I’ve also taken my family and friends dogs for walks and house sat them I have a lot of free time and I can travel to and from any destination within 10 miles of where I live I am trustworthy and a pet lover I have a fenced rear garden which is private and has grass area for pets to do there business also have a large grass field just behind the property

About: I’ve taken primary care of the family pets since I was 12, so 10 years now!, miss them like crazy now I’m student so far from home! I have petsitted for neighbours, friends, family members, and have dog walked for them too. New to ‘professional’ pet sitting but I hope my reliability, knowledge, and love for animals shines through in everything I do :) I’m a third year university student! so obviously when that starts again I have a few hours a week for lectures where I’m not available but other than that, I’m free! I’m super flexible so just let me know when you need me and I’ll have plenty of time to visit, care, or walk whoever needs it! I do not feel safe/comfortable boarding dogs where I live as it is a student accommodation. However I am attentive and a quick learner so will pick up quickly on safety/care requirements in your own home and respect your privacy if/when I am within it (I’m mostly focused on the pets anyway! haha). I’m familiar with the local area and many of the people (and dogs!) within it. I have an ID and references from friends/family available on request if you want me to prove my identity or my past experience (understandable!)
