About: I’ve been a dog lover since a young age. Living with dogs as a child was an absolute joy. I’m great with all dogs big, small and everything in between! I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like me and you can rest assured your dog will be treated as if it were my own in my care. For your peace of mind I also have a diploma in dog sitting/walking. This is a relatively new venture for me but one I am extremely passionate about and I strive to not let people down. I currently have a French bulldog/dachshund cross who love cuddles. she gets lots of attention including long walks and plenty of play. I am a stay at home person looking for a new opportunity think that I will be golden dog sitter and would never let someone down. I have a Frenchbull dog crossed with a dachshund she is just over a year old loves cuddles and attention she goes for long walks and loves to play.

Emilee walked my dog Pepper. We met up prior to the walk, communication was great, I could see when Pepper was picked up and dropped back home. Emilee also shared a few photos. Would definitely use again :)

About: I have had rescue dogs my whole life, of course this included different behaviours including fear aggression, shut down, separation anxiety to name but a few, with my time, patience and very relaxed personality I was able to help them as much as I could to realise the world isn't really a scary place. My rescues included retired greyhounds, young and old dogs, big and small. I have also pet sat many animals including cats, dogs, donkeys, fish and birds. I have worked in many areas of England and abroad. I have amazing references to show bothy written and verbal. I have also walked many dogs and have decided my LOVE for dogs runs very deep, that I have decided to start a business out of it. Guaranteed your dogs and pets will be treated like one of my own. I try to be realistic and offer 5 to 6 walks per day. This is my full time career. i am very organised, loving, trusting, compassionate, treat all animals like me own I have insurance and have completed many animal courses including pet first aid. I am extremely c;alm and caring and really know what pets need.

About: I have a deep passion for animals, which has been reflected in my extensive pet care experience. Throughout my life, I have owned and cared for my own dogs, providing them with love, training, and companionship. This firsthand experience has given me a solid understanding of dog behaviour, health, and nutrition. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also walked dogs for friends and neighbours, ensuring they receive the exercise and socialisation they need. My dog-walking experience has enhanced my ability to handle different situations with confidence and care. Moreover, I have served as a dog sitter, looking after dogs in their own homes while their owners are away. This role has required me to manage feeding, administering medication, and maintaining daily routines, all while providing a safe and comforting environment for the pets. I take pride in building trust with both the dogs and their owners, ensuring peace of mind during their absence. Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in pet care, including effective communication with pet owners, understanding canine behaviour, and providing attentive and compassionate care. I am committed to ensuring that every dog in my care receives the attention and love they deserve. I have rescued dogs abroad in countries such as Peru and have some beautiful happy ending stories and I have looked after dogs in Chile. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely member of the family! Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, providing structure and fulfillment in my life. Each day begins with morning rituals that include feeding my pets and ensuring they have fresh water. This not only establishes a routine for them but also sets a positive tone for my day. Throughout the week, I dedicate time for regular walks and play sessions, which are crucial for their physical and mental well-being. These activities are not just about exercise; they also allow me to bond with my pets, observe their behavior, and ensure they are healthy and happy. I also allocate specific times for grooming, training, and socialization, which help maintain their hygiene and reinforce good behavior. On weekends, I often set aside longer periods for outings or adventures, providing them with new experiences and environments to explore. Additionally, I keep a flexible schedule to accommodate any vet visits, pet sitters, or special needs that may arise. This proactive approach ensures that my pets receive the care they need, while also allowing me to manage my other responsibilities effectively. Overall, pet care is woven into the fabric of my daily life, enriching my routine and providing me with joy, companionship, and a sense of responsibility. In my own home, I offer; 1. A Safe Environment: My home is pet-friendly. 2. Routine Care: I establish a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime. This routine helps pets feel secure and reduces anxiety. 3. Play and Exercise: I engage pets in regular play sessions, utilising toys that stimulate their minds and bodies. Daily walks or playtime in a secure area are essential for their physical health and mental stimulation. 4. Health Monitoring: I keep a close eye on their behaviour, appetite, and any signs of illness. In a pet owner’s home: 1. I respect the pet's home environment, maintaining their routine as closely as possible to reduce stress. 2. Daily Care: My responsibilities include feeding, providing fresh water, and maintaining cleanliness in the living space. 3. Exercise and Play: I ensure that pets receive adequate exercise through walks or playtime, as specified by the pet owner. I also engage in activities that the pet enjoys to keep them stimulated. 4.Companionship: I provide affection and companionship, helping to alleviate any loneliness the pet may feel while their owner is away. 5. Health and Safety: I monitor the pet's health and behaviour closely, and I am prepared to contact the owner or a veterinarian in case of any concerns. 6. Communication: I keep the pet owner updated with regular check-ins, sharing pictures or messages about their pet’s well-being and activities.

About: Hello! I'm Jemima, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, and everything in between. Based all over the UK I offer trustworthy, compassionate pet care and housesitting services tailored to the needs of your animals and home. Whether you're heading away for the weekend or need regular help, I provide: Pet sitting & daily animal checks (feeding, grooming, companionship). Dog walking – local countryside walks for happy, well-exercised pups. House sitting – keeping your home secure and your pets loved while you’re away. Equine care – including rug changes, feeding, turnout, and general stable duties. I've grown up with animals all my life and currently train as an Equine Podiatrist, specialising in barefoot trimming for horses. My experience means I’m confident managing everything from energetic dogs to sensitive horses, and I always treat your animals as if they were my own. I’m based between Shaftesbury and Salisbury, and can cover all around Wiltshire, Somerset, Hampshire and Dorset. If you have any questions, please just drop me a message and I will get back to you :) I am training to become an Equine Podiatrist so i am at home every day of the week, either studying or looking after animals. I have my own car to travel around in. Dogs will sleep in their own beds in the kitchen and hallway with access to water and to keep warm or cool. When house sitting, I will listen to the owners' needs and where the animals usually sleep, including if they like to sleep on the bed with you :) I will stick to the animals' routine to make them feel as comfortable as possible.

About: I LOVE animals! I have always been an animal lover from a very young age and have had dogs in my home! I love both cats and dogs and am a very respectful, responsible young lady who understands the stress when going away to find someone you feel comfortable and happy with in your home! I have a sprokerpoo called Ernie, and we’ve recently had this issue! I work from home with my own business in social media management, so I thought why not offer pet sitting and other services! I also have qualifications in teaching and elderly care so I am an overall compassionate and loving person! As I work from home (or anywhere with internet) I can virtually be free most of the time to pet sit! I drive and am happy to travel to you for petrol fees! If anyone has any questions you can always message! I am very eager to meet, play with and love your pets just as much as you do 🤍 I work for myself, so I choose my own hours! If you have internet in your home (if I’m house sitting) your pet friends will have a companion all day everyday for as long as you need! Working from home means I have availability to walk and drop in to see your little darlings too! In my home, I have a fully enclosed garden and have to make sure everything is put away! (Shoes are my puppy’s favourite!) I am very aware of my surroundings with my dog and what is safe for him to eat/not eat! I work full time for myself from home so this allows me a large amount of flexibility regarding my routine. This is a huge benefit to pet owners I help as I can work around your schedule/your pets schedule at ease! If I have any work calls whilst at your home I will let you know timings in advance, but this will not impact your pet sitting/daycare experience in any way! If your pet is coming to my home. He/she will be safe at all times. I won’t leave your pet if that’s what you require and make sure they are safe and well looked after at all times!

Ayla is so professional and was really accommodating when my plans changed last minute. Boris came home from his walks a very happy boy. She gave me regular updates and great communication. You would be in very good hands with Ayla taking care of your pet and will definitely be using again .
