Dog Sitting Reading

About: I love a dogs playful and kind nature. I’ve been around dogs all my life and strangers dogs always come up to me which must be a good sign! I adore cats, why I could have my own but my landlord doesn’t allow it! I work full time so I’m only available weekends for dog walks. I could do some week day evenings but I would need notice for this. I know safety around animals, I’ll always keep them on the lead unless you’ve told me otherwise and I’d keep them away from aggressive dogs etc

About: I treat every dog as if they were my own — learning their quirks, favourites routes, and cuddle preferences. It’s not just a walk; it’s a friendship. I currently wfh two days a week usually Monday and Friday but quite flexible. I’m always free at weekends and Christmas time this year too When caring for pets — whether in my home or the owner’s — I make their comfort, safety, and happiness my top priorities. In a pet owner’s home, I always follow their usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walk schedules to how they like to play or relax. I take time to build trust with each animal, especially those who are shy or anxious, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy and safe. When pets stay with me, I create a calm, comfortable environment where they can feel at home. They have plenty of space to play, nap, and get cuddles. I make sure walks, meals, and rest times match their usual rhythm, and I never leave them unattended for long periods. Whether it’s a quick walk or overnight care, my goal is always the same — to give pets love, stability, and attention so they feel secure and content while their owners are away.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was young and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets including rescue dogs, hamsters, and budgies. Over the years I’ve provided dog walking, drop-ins, overnight house sitting, and pet care for friends, family, and clients. I have also completed a pet first aid course for extra peace of mind. I’m especially patient with nervous or anxious pets, having spent the last 9 years with my rescue dog who is fearful of people, which has taught me how important calm energy, trust, and routine are. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’ve also handled more responsible aspects of pet care when needed, including taking dogs to vet appointments during pet sits, so I’m able to stay calm, attentive, and reliable in different situations. I genuinely love animals and always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the day, especially during longer stays. Depending on your pet’s needs and routine, I’m able to do walks in the mornings, at lunchtime, after work, and in the evenings, while also spending plenty of time with them during the day. For dog walking and drop-ins, I’m generally available on selected weekdays at lunchtime, every evening after 5pm, most weekends, and during holidays including bank holidays and Christmas. I currently provide pet care in the owner’s home, as I believe many pets feel happiest and most comfortable staying in their familiar environment and routine. I always take the time to understand each pet’s usual schedule, personality, and needs to help them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I aim to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and consistency. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for extra peace of mind.

“Grace was excellent! She checked in and out for every visit, took pictures and was communicative. I couldn’t have asked for someone better. Our boys seemed very happy when we got back, which is all I want 🥰”

About: I’ve been looking after dogs as far as a child, any breeds from sausage dolls to frenchies. I have a soft spot for them and treat them like my own. I love walking and hiking and I’m very active Pet care fits well into my daily schedule because I have a flexible routine and can make time to give pets the attention and care they deserve. I’m active and enjoy being outdoors, so dog walks fit naturally into my day. I also enjoy spending quiet time with cats, whether that’s playing with them, keeping them company, or giving them plenty of cuddles and affection. I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, safe, and pet-friendly flat where pets can relax and feel comfortable. I’ll always follow your care instructions, including feeding routines, walks, medication (if needed), and any house rules your pet is used to. I’ll treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, ensuring they receive plenty of attention and affection while in my care.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets, my family members, friends and neighbours. I had my own big dog and so I know what it takes to take care of dogs. I am able to walk the dog frequently and for various lengths. I am happy to take care of dogs who might need some special treatment! I study mostly at home so I am able to be flexible with my hours. I already take about 4 walks a day so adding a furry buddy to it is no problem. I like walking in large fields which would provide the pet a lot of space to roam around. My dog lived with me in an apartment and then we moved to a house with a garden so that he can enjoy more of the earth and fresh air. I walk my dogs every 4 hours or more often if needed! I usually feed my dog once in the morning and once at night unless he has special dietary requirements when sick.

“Oscar is 100% reliable, a great help when you need to leave a pet at home, having the peace of mind that they are being looked after, Dennis very happy.🐶”

About: Dogs have always been a large part of my world and I do love them very much. My family are from the obedience show dog world, my mother is a dog trainer, behaviourist and breeder. She has competed for Wales at Crufts in obedience, and my Aunt once won Crufts obedience once outright (Bev Hughes, Woughstock Wisdom, or Jasper for short). We had a rotating cast of 7 border collies mixed with various pet dogs, well over 25 dogs over the years, five of them my own. Our pack has included poodles, sausage dogs, a Labrador cross, a Yorky, probably about 15 Border Collies + cross breds, GSD’s, Staffies, various others and finally the only current resident, a little male Jackawowa. We believe in the highest standards of care for all dogs, this means plenty of walks, plenty of play, and plenty of cuddles. I now offer professional dog walking and pet care services to the current generation of our four legged friends, this is my main work, so I’m not spending all day on Zoom calls ignoring your dog! and your dog will get lots of exercise on our regular walks unless they don’t want that. They will be looked after in our home, allowed on the sofa and treated as part of the family. So if you would like your dog to join our small pack for expert care on a temporary or permanent basis, get in touch. Please note: • While I’m happy to consider most dogs, I do not board, day care or group walk aggressive dogs. However, I can offer 1 to 1 walks for some smaller breeds and help with desensitisation. • I’m happy to refer you for larger dogs—there’s always a way forward, don’t give up! • I only board small females that are neutered or not more than four months past their last season, as my own dog is an intact male. If you’re unsure about suitability or have any concerns, feel free to reach out—I’m always happy to discuss your dog’s needs. (You can message or call through the rover phone App by clicking my profile/tap teh 3 dots at the top/Call Catherine.) Waggy tails! Cathy I like to give my own dogs two walks a day morning and afternoon/evening, and various games and breaks in between, I'll do the same for your dog, (unless your dog is elderly or it's too hot, or by other arrangement). Plus cuddles. For those dogs that like cuddles, lots of cuddles. Dogs are looked after in the same way as my own dog is, kept inside our house when not walking, and we have a secure enclosed garden. They are allowed on the furniture.

“Zuzanna was a great sitter for our cat who has a strong character. He warmed up to Zuzanna quickly and even sat on her lap. Zuzanna is a warm and patient person, and she took a great care of our cat. We will definitely be using Zuzanna’s service again.”
