Pet 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.

I bring a calm, highly attentive, and reliable energy to dog sitting, and I am strict about following your exact walking and feeding routines.

“Tatiana provided fantastic care for Hettie and Pippin! She came round and met the dogs before hand and sent lots of pictures during the visit. It’s clear she loves dogs and it was great peace of mind knowing they were in safe hands. We will definitely book with Tatiana again ☺️”

About: I recently returned to the UK from the United States and grew up in Denmark, where I was surrounded by animals from an early age. I was also an avid horse rider, which gave me valuable experience caring for and understanding animals of all sizes. I have worked as a full-time professional pet-sitter in the US and have rescued and rehabilitated cats, helping them regain their confidence and health through patient, compassionate care. As a parent who has raised three children, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to individual needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust that your beloved pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I love walking in nature and enjoy getting to know the unique personality of every pet I care for. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves long walks or a shy cat who needs a calm, gentle approach, I adapt my care to suit each animal’s individual needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, exercise, companionship, and personalized care. My goal is to give both you and your pets peace of mind, knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. I have experience working with pets of all ages and have worked with senior pets needing extra care and attention. I’m currently available during the day time hours and I will accommodate your pet’s schedule. My hours are flexible in the day time hours. I will follow your instructions for pet sitting closely and make sure your pet feels very comfortable in my company. I will always be attentive and get a sense of what your pet needs to make sure all their needs are met at any given time.

About: Having grown up in Italy with dogs as part of the family—thanks to a large garden and an animal-loving home—I’ve always had a natural bond with them. Rover has given me the perfect way to continue enjoying their company, and because I work from home most of the time, I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’d be delighted to look after your dog, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch! I work from home most of the time, so I'm quite flexible. Sometimes I need to travel for work or attend appointments out, but I'm happy to discuss your needs and find a way to make it work! My partner and I live in a second floor flat, no balcony. No other animals in the house. No children. My flat has carpet in most areas, so I can only take house trained dogs.

About: Dogs were with me since my birth. It's a totem animal of our family. I've started my pet care experience when I was 10. I walked and looked after our English Spaniel Tim. Later our family got yorkies. Currently I have a beautiful girl Mima and provide the best service (walks, food, treats, vet visits) to her I’m a freelance Social Media Manager, so I’m normally based at home. I have a flexible work schedule most days, that's why I can get out for a walk and a play pretty regularly. I have a flat on the 5th floor without balcony. The house has CCTV. The flat is fully secure and I’m right by Forbury Gardens park for walks.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, and over the past 10 years I’ve gained experience with all kinds of pets — from guinea pigs and hamsters to cats and dogs. My family currently has five dogs, so daily pet care is a big part of my life. I’ve also supported two litters of puppies, each with five little ones, which taught me a lot about patience, gentleness, and routine. I have a soft spot for French Bulldogs and understand their unique needs. I truly love being around animals and treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own. I work full‑time within the NHS on a three‑day schedule, which gives me four days each week dedicated to dog walking. This flexibility allows me to offer reliable availability and plenty of time for longer walks, regular exercise, and consistent routines. Whether your dog needs a calm stroll, a bit of extra energy release, or steady weekly walks, I make sure every outing is safe, enjoyable, and suited to their personality. I live in a comfortable flat just a short walk from a lovely local park, which makes it easy to give dogs plenty of outdoor time and regular walks. Inside my home, I keep a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets can relax and feel secure. I make sure they have a cosy space to settle, fresh water available at all times, and lots of attention throughout the day. Because the park is so close, I’m able to take dogs out frequently for exercise, toilet breaks, and playtime, which helps them stay happy and relaxed during their stay. Whether it’s a gentle stroll or a more energetic walk, I tailor the routine to each dog’s needs so they feel comfortable and well cared for in my home.

“Ching is an absolutely wonderful cat sitter! She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals. My cat warmed up to her right away. I appreciated her regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and a spotless space. I can’t recommend Ching enough!”

About: I grew up with family dogs and, for the past two years, have been raising and training my own Shiba Inu. Through this experience, I have developed a strong understanding of dog behaviour, positive reinforcement training, establishing routines, and providing consistent care. Owning a Shiba Inu has also taught me the importance of patience, clear communication, and adapting to each dog’s unique personality. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work from home every Friday and am also available on some Tuesdays and Thursdays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. My workload is generally manageable, so I can spend quality time with your dog, including playtime, companionship, and regular walks during breaks. I’m also available most weekends, allowing me to dedicate even more time to your pet’s care and ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. Whether caring for pets in my home or in their owner’s home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I take the time to learn about each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, favourite activities, and any special instructions. I have a friendly Shiba Inu who loves meeting and playing with other dogs. For social dogs, this can provide an excellent opportunity for companionship and playtime throughout the day. Of course, I always introduce dogs carefully and make sure they are comfortable with one another. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, walks, and enrichment, while also ensuring pets have a safe and comfortable space to relax. I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident while they’re away, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, secure, and part of the family while in my care.

“Thank you Katie. So glad we found you. 🙏🥰”

About: Hi, I’m Laura 👋🏻 - your seasoned pet sitter and I’m thrilled to offer a warm and personalised experience for you fur baby! A little bit about me...I've been taking care of dogs since I was 12. I used to look after my nan's puppies every day after school. At my parents' house we've had a cat for as long as I can remember, so I've got plenty of experience looking after cats too.  My first graduate job was working in frundraising at Guide Dogs. We had a dog friendly office as well as a training center on site, so I was surrounded by pups on a daily basis and learnt vital skills about their care and behaviour.  I'm experienced and confident around dogs and cats of all breeds, shapes and sizes. 😊 I have a lot of experience looking after puppies, rescues and senior pets. As I work remotely, I have a pretty flexible schedule and I'm available to take care of your pets most weekdays/weekends. I'm offering doggy daycare at my home, dog walking (30mins+), house visits and house sitting services at your home. I'm comfortable with staying for longer periods of time and looking after the house too, including holidays. I can host dogs in my flat, which is right in front of a lovely park, or provide care in their own home where they feel most at ease. Wherever they stay, I’ll make sure they get the same love, attention, and routine they’re used to — with plenty of updates for you too!

“Ed did an amazing job of caring for my family cat, I would thoroughly recommend and will definitely book Ed again in the future.”

I've successfully cared for dogs of various ages, breeds, and temperaments, and would love to care for your fur baby!

As an extra service, I can provide baths, blow-drying and brushing. Please consult my calendar for availability- Your dog will experience a calm and homely atmosphere during their stay. I can accommodate up to two dogs simultaneously, but this may vary based on space and the preferences of the dogs involved. If you have multiple dogs, I can happily care for them together. Please note that I exclusively offer dog sitting at your home on Fridays and weekends only. Residing on the ground floor of a small block of flats, I have convenient access to a large communal garden, securely gated and fenced. The living room is spacious, providing a comfortable setting for your dog. They are welcome to join me on the sofa, and for overnight stays they can choose between their own dog bed or the sofa.
