About: Over 20 years dog and cat experience, I'm reliable, loving and fit. Nurturing and playful with lots of time and attention to give to your dog. I'm a writer so have plenty of time to walk and care for pets. I find they curl up under my desk or on my lap while I work. In the summer they garden with me. I have a big home close to the coastal path with secure gates and CCTV. I provide a safe, loving, home from home stay. Dogs that I walk tend to want to stay with me! I only look after dogs exclusively from one family so the environment is peaceful and calm.

About: Since a young age both Fra and myself have cared for animals. We both had cats and dogs in our homes since birth and have looked after them with utmost care and attention. In our adult years we have taken house sitting seriously and have cared for several homes and a variety of pets. From dogs and cats, to lizards, frogs and guineapigs, we've cared for them all. Pet care takes priority when it comes to our weekly routines. We have various jobs and hobbies, yet we are very flexible and can usually cater to the needs of the animals are the requests of the pet owner. We always take the pets care requirements into consideration. Most pets will require different attention and we make sure to provide what is required. Whether it's walking, feeding, washing or general health care, we have the experience and understanding to provide great pet care.

About: I had a dog (Kelly) when I was a child and now own a big grey cat called Luna. I occasionally pet sitted dogs and cats at friend’s houses. I am working a 8-4 job. I am working in the office Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am working from home on Wednesdays and Fridays. I could work from your home if you want me to stay the whole day (on Wednesdays and Fridays) or come right before and/or after work and even spend the night there if you want. I can feed your pets, take them out for walks, cuddle them (obviously) and wash them or anything else you want me to do :) I can spend the night over too.

“Sol is lovely, flexible, and very helpful. Jack has a great time on his walks - we can clearly see hoe much fun he is having from the videos and pictures during the walks. He greeted Sol like an old friend on the 2nd time of meeting her, and is more than happy to leave us! :)”

About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life and have experience caring for all kinds of animals. I enjoy caring for senior animals or animals with special needs that may need some extra care, but also have raised both puppies and kittens in my lifetime! I am a calm, gentle person and I know how to act around animals of any personality types & needs, for example if you have a skittish/nervy cat you can rest assured that I will approach your pet and your house with care and precision as to not startle them. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine as I have a very flexible schedule. I am available every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and I’m more than happy to spend quality time with your cat rather than just popping in for a quick visit. I understand how important routine and companionship are, so I’ll make sure your cat receives plenty of attention, care and affection while you’re away :) I care for every cat as if they were my own. At home, and when cat sitting, I make sure the cats are always well fed, have fresh water, clean litter trays, and plenty of love and attention. I am more than happy to look after any cats of any ages and have experience with cats of all ages including kittens and senior cats. I love spending time playing with them, keeping them entertained, and giving them lots of cuddles whenever they’re in the mood for affection! When caring for a cat in an owner’s home, I’ll follow their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. I will happily spend time keeping them company and giving them cuddles if they enjoy them. My priority is making sure every cat feels safe, happy and cared for while their owner is away. Whether you have one kitty or 20, I will be more than happy to look after them.

“Kaci was very polite and friendly. She was punctual and took my Yorkshire terrier out for two walks which Billie loved. The walks were local to me and didn't mind driving to my house. Would ask her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Lucy! I’m an experienced and passionate dog carer with a strong background in animal welfare. I’ve volunteered as a dog boarder for Guide Dogs UK, cared for rescue dogs as a walker with a local dog charity, and walked pups through BorrowMyDoggy. I also have hands-on experience working with a variety of animals at an animal rescue charity. As I have grown up with a dog, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pup. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or company, your dog will be in safe, loving hands with me! -NO LONGER ACCEPTING BOARDING IN MY OWN HOUSE FOR MORE THAN ONE NIGHT- -BOOKING IS ONLY CONFIRMED ONCE CONFIRMED IN THE APP- I am a part-time remote online student so I am fully available throughout the week and able to give my full attention to your pet. I have a non-smoking, no children, and no pet household so it is safe for reactive dogs. There are also plenty of walks around my house to take your pet on if you wish.

“Martin has been fantastic! Always on time, has taken him out for the correct length of time and rain or shine! He’s great with communication, I can’t fault anything. Morris has loved all his walks with Martin and came back all tuckered out. Feel lucky to found such a great walker! Thank you!”

About: Hi, I’m Lyndsey 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up around pets, have owned both dogs and cats over the years, and now I have my own border collie. My partner and I are both massive animal lovers, and we’ll look after yours exactly how we’d want our own looked after. I offer dog walks – plenty of time for sniffing, playing or taking it steady, whatever they like best. I also do home visits for feeding, fuss and play, plus overnight sits. I’m happy with all ages, breeds and personalities, and just as comfortable caring for cats as I am dogs. I know how worrying it is leaving your pet with someone else, so I’ll send you plenty of photos and updates to keep you in the loop. I’ll always stick to their usual routine so they stay happy and settled. Looking after and playing with my puppy Guinness is a part of my and my partner's daily routine. On Weekends & Bank Holidays we often go out for especially long walks and would love to bring another dog along with us for a friend for our dog! We have vast experience of dog walking. I understand that every animal is unique and has different needs and will care for them in a way that is best for each and everyone of them. Caring pet owners know that most pets adjust better to their owner’s absence and experience less anxiety and stress when they can remain in their home environments.

About: We’re Nat and Chris, and we’ve been proud to call Bristol our home since 2017. With 7 years of experience in dog boarding and 14 years of lovingly raising our own dog from a playful puppy to a cherished elderly companion, we’re dedicated to providing a warm, secure, and nurturing home-from-home environment for your furry friend. It was with heavy hearts that we said goodbye to our beloved Coco 🌈, who filled our lives with joy, deepened our understanding of dogs, and forever touched our souls. We adore dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, with a special place in our hearts for shy ones, drawing on our lifelong experience with dogs and cats. We’re with dogs at home all the time 😊. We do not accept large groups—instead, we carefully match and introduce only dogs that get along well and enjoy each other’s company, ensuring a calm, stress-free stay for everyone. There’s nothing we enjoy more than sharing long, joyful walks through nearby woods, parks, and forests with our guests. Our three-bedroom home offers plenty of space for your dog to feel at ease, complete with a large, securely fenced garden. Plus, we’re just steps away from the beautiful Kings Weston House and its expansive open common area—perfect for adventures and relaxation. We know how much your dog means to you, and we treat every pet as if they were our own, with the utmost care and respect. We’re flexible with timing and thoughtful about pick-up and drop-off, making the experience as smooth as possible for you and your pet. To keep you connected, we’ll send daily updates with photos, sharing the happy moments of your dog’s stay. We’d be honoured to welcome your dog into our home 😊. I provide personalised dog boarding in a small, home-like setting — maximum 5 dogs at once.
Solo boarding is welcome, but please book in advance ☺️ We have a big open plan living room and kitchen area so there’s lots of space for you pet to roam free. There is also a garden out the back and Kings Weston House 5 minutes around the corner!

About: I’ve been pet sitting through Rover for several years now, and have loved meeting and looking after so many peoples precious animals! I’ve cared for dogs and cats young and old, am happy dealing with their little quirks and pet peeves, and any additional needs they have too :) I currently work from home and am happy to be available in the early morning, lunch time, or after work or dinner, and will spend the day with your animal - they can and often do join me for meetings via Zoom! I pet sit from (your) home and am more than happy to provide endless attention throughout the day, and walks whenever they’re needed! Photos can be provided whenever requested too, so everyone feels connected.

About: Animals have been a constant in my life since childhood. Growing up, I shared our family home with German Shepherds and various crossbreeds, so I'm very comfortable around larger, more energetic dogs as well as smaller companions. My wife and I recently spent time travelling across Canada and the USA, where we house-sat and cared for pets as a way of truly living in the places we visited. That experience gave us a real breadth of hands-on care: rescue dogs being rehomed from Mexico to Vancouver, high-energy Huskies, elderly dogs requiring regular medication, and cats of all temperaments... including very shy ones who needed patience and a gentle approach to come out of their shell. Until recently we also had our own cat Ollie, a Ragdoll we adored, so we know what it means to be on the other side of this relationship and how much trust you're placing in someone when you hand over the care of a beloved pet. I'm currently in a flexible period of work, which means I can genuinely accommodate most schedules and be present in the way pets need. We live in Westbury Park, just a short walk from Durdham Down. I think...one of Bristol's best open spaces! giving me plenty of room to walk dogs freely, as often as they need. No children at home, no other pets. I'm currently in a flexible period between roles, which means pet care genuinely sits at the centre of my day rather than being fitted around a 9-to-5. I don't have a rigid routine that animals need to work around — I can structure my days around their needs, whether that's regular medication times, multiple walks, or simply making sure a nervous pet isn't left alone longer than they're comfortable with. My wife and I are often both home, which means there's usually someone around. I have hands-on experience with pets that need a little more attention, including dogs on regular medication, rescue animals that may be anxious or have unknown histories, and shy cats that need space before they warm to someone new. Whatever the situation, I'll always keep owners updated with messages and photos, and I'll flag anything that seems off straight away. I'd rather over-communicate than leave someone worrying about their pet.

About: Hello everyone, I am 30 years old, I have had cats since I was 10 years old and always wanted dogs too. My boyfriend's side of the family have dogs and we love taking them out for day trips. I am currently working part-time in Marketing and work from home so your pets won’t feel lonely. I am very flexible and can adapt to your schedule. I am happy to look after your pet during the week and weekends. I currently live in a pet friendly flat in Clifton with my partner (35), right next to Victoria park and very close to Ashton Court (every pet’s paradise!) I do not own any pets and I would be able to look after a small dog or cat in my flat. I am also happy to look after any size pets at at your house or to take your dog for walks in the lovely parks around the area. I can look after a mixture of breeds and I am comfortable looking after puppies as well as dogs.

“George was brilliant! He was able to accommodate me at short notice, for which I was very grateful. Polo had a lovely time with him and George took some great photos to show what they got up to 😊”

About: Friendly, reliable and experienced & based just outside of Bristol. I’m experienced and confident with a range of dogs and have walked and cared for a number of different breeds and ages. Having my own dog and struggling to find someone I’d comfortably trust her with, I empathise with owners when searching for a solution when you’re tied up with work or other commitments! I understand and can be flexible with your dog’s routine, whilst also striving to give them an exciting and stimulating walk. I’m currently working flexible hours and have a lot of free time to dedicate to walks/drop-ins and pet-sitting. Having recently started my own dog walking / dog sitting business, I have the experience and time to commit to caring for your much-loved pets. I often have more spare time in the week, but can usually accommodate weekends too if given enough time notice! I have a flat with a fenced-off decking area with access to lots of fields just over the road! I have a car so I’m able to travel to your home to care for your dog too. I’m happy to fit in with your dog’s routine and your expectations where I can.
