About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the majority of my life! I greatly miss my old English sheepdogs - Alfie and Digby, who I was lucky to have for 15 years. From training, to dog sitting, to being with them in their final days, I will never forget the memories I have with them. Aside from Alfie and Digby, I have looked after many breeds including: Poodle mixes, Labradors, Spaniels, Sharpeis, Staffies, Terriers, Dachshunds and Weimaraners I lived with Betsy the cocker spaniel for 9 months in shared accommodation and did everything from feeding, walking and taking her to the vets. I’m looking to either be in your home for safety and calm, or be the friendly face that visits them, plays with them and takes them for walks! Having looked after so many dogs, I understand the care, love and commitment they need. I live in a cottage with a third of an acre garden, perfect for dogs. The top of the garden is secure, whilst the bottom end has much lower boundaries. If your dog needs quieter stimuli, I am on very quiet road which has little traffic. I like the pups to have blankets and toys with smells from home to increase their comfort staying with me. In your home, knowing where essentials are, understanding any underlying signs of discomfort and, what to do if a situation arises are really important to me. I want your pets to feel as loved as they are by you!

“Katy made a drop in visit to see my dog, she sent me notifications of arriving and leaving as well as photos of my dog playing in the garden. Katy visited for a meet and greet before the drop in and spent over half an hour learning everything that she needed to know about the house and my dog. I will definitely use Katy again and recommend her. She is very experienced and confident around dogs.”

About: Since I was a child, I have been very attached to animals, in my neighborhood I always walked and took care of my neighbors' dogs as a teenager and especially my neighbors who were elderly and unable to walk their dogs. I don't have animals because I came from Brazil and couldn't bring my animals, so now I'm looking for new animals that I can care for and love because I feel good and happy around animals. So I found this way to accomplish this. I take care with a lot of safety and most importantly with a lot of love and affection so that besides me, he also feels happy and loved!

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I've grown up with pets my entire life, so looking after animals comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs and three cats of my own, so I'm very familiar with the daily routines involved in keeping pets happy, healthy, and well cared for. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, administering lots of cuddles, or making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, I genuinely enjoy every part of caring for animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I'm happy to adapt to their routine to help them feel relaxed and at home. I'm reliable, patient, and will treat your pets with the same love and care that I give my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I'd love the opportunity to care for yours! I have a flexible routine that allows me to provide plenty of time, attention, and care for pets. Whether it's playtime, feeding, or companionship, I'm able to fit pet care comfortably into my day and ensure every pet feels happy and well looked after. When caring for pets in their own home, I always follow their usual routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime, as well as any medication if required. I respect your home, keep it clean and secure, and will provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in caring, reliable hands.

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.

“Lucy was great for my cat. She looked after her like she was her own. My cat adored her and was seen waiting for Lucy to arrive on multiple occasions”

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.

“Gil has been a great dog sitter. He’s looked after my dog throughout the day and also drop ins. He follows all my instructions and requests and makes sure my dog has quality time when he visits. He is reliable and great at prompt and clear communications. We will definitely be using Gil again.”

SOLANS08439, https://www.rover.com/sit/solans08439 I have a very flexible life and I work from home with pets. Your pet will have my company and Frank, my dog, he is a Cockapoo very friendly, calm and love his walks. Your pet will never be alone.

I am very relaxed with pets around the house I provide dog beds and blankets but I do not mind them on the sofa, while they are with me, I treat them like they are mine.

If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity levels to where your pet is more comfortable. I have got experience with large and small breeds. During your pet's stay I prefer you provide your pet’s food so it does not disturb his/hers stomach by changing diet. I am DBS checked, first aid dog trained.

About: My background as a professional animal trainer with 10 years of hands-on experience, including working with a wide range of species means I have a deep understanding of animal behaviour and behaviour modification. This helps me read body language, prevent issues before they arise, and support pets who may be anxious, reactive, or who struggle adjusting to new environments. I place a strong emphasis on high welfare standards and kind, ethical handling. I’m patient, calm, and consistent, and I tailor my care to each animal’s individual needs. I’m comfortable supporting young animals as they learn good habits, and providing thoughtful care for senior pets who may need a slower pace or extra consideration and everything in between. Above all, I aim to make pets feel safe, understood, and relaxed while giving owners peace of mind.
