“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: I am a recent graduate with a lifelong love and interest in animals. As a child, I would draw my own pet sitting “business cards” and leave them for neighbours so that I could feed and play with their cats after school. I eventually moved on to dog walking as a teenager, and since then I have continued to look after all sorts of different animals! I spent time living in the USA pet sitting and dog walking in San Diego, and I really fell in love with the relaxed dog centred lifestyle in California and Arizona. I also volunteered as a dog walker with a local shelter for a dog walking program focused on helping rehabilitate their shy dogs. These experiences have really shaped my outlook on pet care and I hope to help your pets feel happy and at home with me. I’m a kind and trustworthy dog lover. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog with someone else, which is why I make sure your pet’s comfort and happiness come first. I’d be so happy to care for your pet and I hope to meet them soon! 🐾 Please check my calendar and message me to double check availability. I will aim to update my calendar once a week. If you are booking with me for the first time - I like to schedule a visit before accepting bookings so that you have the opportunity to decide if I am the right sitter for you and your dog. If you have not booked with me before, please ensure that the booking request is made at least 5 days in advance of your desired date/time for house sitting, boarding. For bookings > 5 days, I typically request that you submit your booking request 1 week in advance and arrange a meet and great. I often suggest you book an evening or one night to see if I am the right fit for your pet and also to better understand their routine for longer bookings. If you have previously booked with me - I am able to provide dog sitting and boarding in East Bristol and in Portishead (whichever is most convenient) I am able to provide dog sitting in East Bristol and Portishead. I have a fenced garden. I also have a chilled out dog who would love to make friends with your dog. I am happy to make any adjustments to my home that you think your dog might prefer. When I have previously done in-home boarding, I mostly spend time alongside the dog keeping them company even if it is just cuddling up watching tv while I draw to make sure they feel at ease. I always prioritise how your pet feels and respect their boundaries and needs.

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!

“Daisy (Desiree) was wonderful. She was very conscientious in looking after my cat and plants while we were away. She kept us informed and sent lots of photos and funny videos. I was very confident that everything was in very safe hands. It is clear that she loves cats and they love her! I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you v much, Daisy!”

“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.”

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.

“My first ever cat sitting experience and George was excellent. Met him before the booking and knew I could trust him to watch Yukino. He gave updates and sent me picture when he was there. She was happy when I returned and all glowing.”

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: 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. We are animal care professionals with years of experience and a love for all animals. Our bungalow is enclosed and has a garden designed to be engaging for dogs and cats through paths and scents.

About: I have dog and cat-sat since I was 12, including elderly cats, for my neighbours as well as being brought up with 7 dogs, I also have my own cat right now who I have had since being a kitten thus giving me experience with babies. In terms of dogs I have taken care of a Jack Russel puppy, a Golden Lab, Dalmatian and Shih Tzu's. I have also been in households with dogs and cats at the same time, which has given me experience with handling multiple animals and different animals at the same time. I currently am seeking part-time employment to save up for uni, but I am unemployed as of right now. I also have a car so I am free to travel and as a student on summer break I have much free-time and any plans which do come up are always flexible around your needs. I can always be trusted in your home as a long-term pet sitter and babysitter as well as previously working in two school environments. I have plenty of training on safety as well as the communication skills and experience to understand your needs from me.

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: Ive taken care of my own dog (Yorkie) since I was 10, after that I’ve worked with dogs throughout collage and university. I’ve worked at a groomers, dog behaviouralist and at the vets as a student vet nurse. I can work with big and small dogs alike, with both nervous or ‚spicy’ personalities. I can walk dogs, train them, trim their nails, give them baths and brushed them out (but can’t clip or trim fur due to lack of equipment). I can administer topical, oral and injectable medications and know how to look after puppies, sick / injured, or geriatric dogs. I’m currently working part-time as a bartender (Friday and Saturday nights, and the occasional mid week night shift), so I’m available all week during the day, and most of the week over night. This may change once I find a full time position, however I’d be happy to continue services for regulars or on special occasions given prior notice. I prefer to go clients homes as that’s where the animals feel the safest, but if that’s not possible I’m able to bring animals to my home. I have a few house mates that you might cross paths with that don’t mind animals in the house. I have a big living room, which is where we’d spend most of the time (outside of walks and sleep) and I have a very small garden, however it’s too small to be comfortable long term. During nights, I’d bring the pets up to my room and either put them in a kennel if provided and requested by owner, or will allow them to sleep on my bed (if owner permits). While taking care of cats, they would be kept indoors at all times unless leashed walks are requested, and I’d require the owner to provide a harness, cage or kennel for transport and safety reasons. For pick ups and drop offs, I can only provide this if you are within walking or public transport distance and my main mode of transport is not suitable for pets.

“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”
