“Hollie was great with our cats, would 100% recommend her services. One of our cats can be scared around new people, but both cats seemed relaxed during and after we got home, even had a couple of updates which was lovely. Thanks again 😊”


“Would highly recommend Georgina. Organised drop in visits whilst we were away. Everything taken care of and got regular updates on wellbeing and pics etc. Came home to a very happy cat.”


About: I have a Level 3 Diploma in Animal Management, where I learned about animal care, behaviour, and welfare. I’ve also volunteered at a variety of kennels, gaining hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds and temperaments. I have walked dogs for other people, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need. I also grew up with a cat from when I was born until I was 12, which gave me a good understanding of cat care and behaviour. I work full time during the week, but I’m available for overnight stays from Friday evening after work, all day and overnight on Saturdays, and Sundays until late evening. I’ll always make sure pets get plenty of attention, care, and routine during the time I’m with them. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, walks, medication if needed, and any house rules. I take a calm and patient approach so pets feel relaxed and secure, and I make sure they are always supervised and well cared for. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.
“Joey is an absolute natural with animals and clearly very knowledgeable, we have a very big excitable dog and she was so calm when she met Joey and they do say animals are a good judge of character. Loads of pictures and updates were sent which really put our mind at ease, she was happy content and well fed when we got home from our trip, Joey is a really warm person and we felt very safe and confident with her being in our home. Highly recommend her x”

“As soon as we meet Jo we knew she was the one to look after our old boy Dave (20 year old deaf cat). They bonded instantly and he was falling asleep on her lap taking fusses during our meet and greet. Her love of animals was obvious from the start. During our holiday she gave him his meds and the all important cuddles he needed and we got photos and updates every day which just confirmed we’d made the right decision. Our home was spotless when we got home and Dave was happy and healthy. We’ve already booked her for our next break 😍 Thank you Jo, knowing you were loving Dave whilst we were away allowed us to unwind and relax worry free x”

About: I’ve been caring for others cats and dogs for a few years now but started walking and sitting over the last two years. Many in my village have trusted me to care for both their cats and dogs including household with both. I love animals and have been known to take great care of the animals in the owners absence. I’m currently a full time uni student with time to spare especially at weekends. However I have free time during the week to take your pet out for walks or toilet breaks. In owners homes I have put the pet in a crate over night and managed the areas the pet is allowed to go well. I take great care of your furry family members as well as the home. I’ve administered eye drops and medications along with food and breaks outside for your pets.

About: I am currently a vet student and my whole world revolves around animals. I have done dog sitting and walking for 5 years now and love it! I am passionate to provide the most loving care for all animals with constant play and cuddles. Due to being a vet student I am in class every week day but I am very happy to spend my time in the evenings and weekends looking after your pets as well as during breaks and holidays. I have done housesitting various times, sometimes for a day and other times up to a week. I always like to meet owners and pets at least once before coming to stay in the house and make sure we’re a good match. It’s important that the animal gets to know me and trusts me before I sit as well as answer any questions beforehand.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced cat and dog owner, currently sharing my home with Spooky, my 12-year-old cat, and Nenya, my energetic 3-year-old corgi. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and boundaries. I’m patient, attentive and happy to tailor each visit to what makes your pet feel most comfortable - whether that means an engaging walk, plenty of playtime, a quiet cuddle or simply giving a cautious cat the space to approach me in their own time. I regularly care for pets belonging to those in my personal network and will treat yours with the same care and affection I give my own. I’m reliable, respectful of your home and will keep you reassured with thoughtful updates and plenty of photos while your pet is in my care. **Please note that I’m unavailable for daytime visits on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, but I may still be available during the evenings on these days.** I work hybrid as a communications specialist, giving me flexibility across the week for walks and drop-in visits, particularly on my home-working days. I’m also available during many evenings and weekends and will always confirm that I can comfortably fit your pet’s full routine around my schedule before accepting a booking. Every pet is different, so I take time to understand their personality, routine and boundaries, following their owner’s instructions carefully. At home, I care for Spooky, my 13-year-old cat, and Nenya, my playful 3-year-old corgi, so I’m very familiar with balancing different temperaments and needs. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, attentive to pet safety, and committed to providing reliable updates throughout every booking. For additional reassurance, I have completed both DBS and credit checks for my day-to-day work.

About: I am a reliable and friendly pet carer who loves building a strong bond with every pet I care for and their owners! I’m happy to walk your fur babies, provide drop-in visits and/or house sit. Dog-care experience: I started walking dogs last year through BMD and have experience with a range of breeds and personalities, from Dachshunds and Cockapoos to Labradors. I have also cared for senior dogs and more challenging dogs including those who have limited recall, are strong leash pullers, or who experience attachment issues when separated from their owners. I’m comfortable adapting my approach to suit each individual dog which may include implementing training techniques such as clickers, squeakers and, of course, plenty of treats! I also have experience house-sitting while providing pet care and have developed strong, trusting relationships with previous owners and their pets. References can be provided upon request. Cat-care experience: I also have a fur baby of my own🐱 (which means I don’t offer daycare or boarding - sorry!) This has given me experience with cat care too, including feeding, litter cleaning and, most importantly, plenty of playtime and cuddles. I can’t wait to become your pet’s new best friend!❤️ I’m currently a medical student, which means I’m usually unavailable Monday–Friday, 9–5 during term time. However, I’m very happy to provide care outside of these hours, as well as during weekends and university holidays! I’m also very active and love getting outdoors and going on hikes to stay fit. I’d love to bring your fur baby along on my adventures, if they’re up for it! 🐾🥾❤️ I don’t offer day care or boarding, however I’m more than happy to house-sit once I’ve established a bond with you and your pet. Before any house-sit, I like to establish a bond with your pet and understand their usual routine. This means understanding their individual needs, including feeding schedule, walks, medication, and any house rules you have. I’ll also ask you for their vet details, emergency contact details and what to do should anything unexpected happen while you’re away. I’ll do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own, ensuring it is secure, clean and tidy throughout the stay. I’m more than happy to keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is being well looked after.
“Claire is very professional, attentive to the smallest details when caring for our pet. We are very happy and grateful for her support with Snowy. She sent lots of photos, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing that Snowy was in the best possible condition.”

“If I am counting it right, this was fourth time when we asked Tasha to look after Arya for us (or maybe third?). Everything is always perfect and we can totally recommend using Tasha as your cat sitter, she is very kind and very caring and it’s amazing with cats xx 💞 thank you once again!! ”

About: I've grown up around cats and dogs, and I am confident with any size or breed. I have regularly looked after friends' pets. I can work with dogs to improve lead walking or recall (using a long line for safety), and I am able to train puppies in all the basics of good manners. As I work from home for myself, I am available for doggy daycare (including weekends), walks and home visits, providing your dog with the very best care. I am not currently able to offer house sitting or evening visits or walks. I have a fully secure back garden and three friendly dogs to keep your furry best friend company. All of my dogs are fully vaccinated and comfortable around young puppies. There is also plenty of space in the house should anyone need a time out. I have areas for on and off-lead walks on the doorstep. I have a long line for your dog's safety while they enjoy access to open spaces.

About: I am a fifth-year vet student with a strong compassion for animal care. My current role as a vet student has allowed me to solidify my confidence with handling and caring for animals of all shapes and sizes, including those with medical needs who may need extra attention. Alongside this, I have been fortunate to grow up with both cats and dogs in my childhood home, which has given me lifelong insight into the day-to-day responsibilities required when caring for our furry friends. Both of these combined allow me to provide both attentive and compassionate care to animals, ensuring that pets are kept safe and well looked after, so that owners can feel reassured while they are away. I am currently a full-time student, in my final year of Veterinary Medicine, and have a lot of flexibility on the weekends due to the fact. Alongside this, I also have availability on some weekday evenings, depending on my schedule. I provide attentive care to all animals in their own home, whilst maintaining each pet's routine to make them more comfortable and as stress-free as possible. This includes feeding, walks and playtime. I also send regular updates and photos of your furry friends for extra peace of mind.

About: I’ve taken care of mostly cats. I love cat sitting, I can also dog sit. I prefer to stay close to home as I don’t drive at the moment. I work part time and I’m a uni student from home but I will always make time to help you where I can as I love nothing more than animals :) I go inside, feed them, let them out and play with them for 25-30 minutes, I can do longer visits if needed. If there’s anything you need or any rooms you don’t want me to go in please let me know when we do a meet and greet!
About: Hi hi!! I'm Phoxx! I've always had dogs in my life since I was young, ranging from giant breeds to miniature breeds, and now as a keen adventurer that goes on frequent hikes I wouldn't mind some extra fluffy company occasionally. I am currently self-employed which allows me to pick which days i go out, so when caring for you fluffy family members I have the ability to take tike off and focus on them. If your pups are at my home, any times that I do need to pop out, my partner will be at home so the house is never empty. Especially with my beagle around to play with. I drive and have access to my a motorcycle and a car so I am happy to house sit for you during the day or simply pop in to make sure your pal has some company and fuss for a while. Due to the size of my house and having my own dog, I currently don't offer boarding for unknown dogs, but we can start at day care and go from there 😊 We have a big sun-trap of a garden that they are free to roam when the weather is nice, get frequent toilet breaks and I also go for walks to my local large field and sometimes down to a friends dog park too (if they're ok in the car) I only work part-time and it's usually based from home. I am never out of the house for long and have plenty of time to look after your furry friends! I have a large faced yard and my own dog to keep your companion company. We spend lots of time doing cuddles and play time as well as more relaxing nap times.

About: I spent 14 years caring for my own Labrador, so I understand the daily rhythm dogs and cats need — regular walks, feeding times, and plenty of attention. Alongside that, I've helped friends and neighbours look after their dogs and cats whenever they've gone on holiday, covering everything from walks and feeding to daily drop-in visits to check in, play, and keep them company. I know how much peace of mind it gives you to know your pet is in safe, familiar hands while you're away. Whether it's a daily walk, a feeding visit, or a full day of company, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, consistency, and genuine care. I'm based in Stoke-on-Trent. I'm happy to discuss your pet's specific routine and needs before we get started. My schedule gives me great flexibility for regular care. On Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I'm free all day and can offer morning, midday, or evening dog walks, along with drop-in visits at any time that suits you. Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I'm at university, so I'm generally available in the evening. On weekends, I'm available in the afternoons around my work schedule. I'm happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet's routine. For dogs, I focus on giving them plenty of exercise with long walks, along with lots of playtime and attention throughout the visit. For cats, I bring that same energy minus the walks — spending time playing, engaging with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and looked after while their owners are away. Whether it's a quick drop-in or a longer visit, my goal is to make sure every pet gets genuine attention, not just the basics.

Joey is an absolute natural with animals and clearly very knowledgeable, we have a very big excitable dog and she was so calm when she met Joey and they do say animals are a good judge of character.

Highly recommend her x

Amazing! I have 3 indoor cats that live quite a sheltered life they don’t see new faces often and are usually quite slow to warm up to people but they took to Kat instantly even before the dreamies came out. Kat is so friendly and clearly knowledgeable on cat behaviour and temperaments, also brilliant communications including photos and text updates on each pet during each visit keeping my mind at ease knowing they were in great hands. I’m happy to have found a cat sitter I will definitely be booking in again, I would 100% recommend Kat to anyone in a heartbeat! Thank you Kat!

As one of 3 close family households, we’ve not had a joint family holiday since 2018 , as none of us could contemplate putting our dearly loved cats into a cattery, or entrusting them into the care of a cat sitter. That is ,until we discovered Katalin and for the 1st time in 8 years we have recently all gone away together, safe in the knowledge that our pets would be truly well looked after. Katalin managed medications, semi - blindness and a 3 legged cat - travelling between our 3 homes, three times each daily , providing the same consistent care each visit, to all. Cat dishes and trays were left meticulously clean, photographs and updates sent following each visit and all our cats were happy and relaxed upon our return. ***** I cannot thank Katalin enough , or recommend her more highly . THANK YOU :)
Yalile C as been an absolute godsend after accepting my request for 9 days of house visits at short notice. Not only did she send daily updates and pictures of her playing with my very shy cat, she kept in contact with family in regards to my cats welfare due to the ongoing heatwave and her concerns that it was to hot to let out. I will most certainly be requesting yaliles services again and recommending her as a cat sitter to friends and family. Thank you so much for looking after my fur baby 🙏🏼

Lynda looked after my cat Gabriel over Christmas and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She came to my house to check on him and took really good care of him, it was obvious she genuinely cares about animals. She’s kind, considerate, and very reassuring throughout, and I felt completely at ease knowing Gabriel was being checked on properly and cared for in his own home. I’d 100% recommend Lynda to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter, and I’ll definitely be using her again.
