House Sitting Renfrewshire

About: I’ve always had pets in my life, so being around animals is something I’ve grown up with and genuinely love. I’ve regularly looked after family and friends’ pets over the years, from feeding and walking them to making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime and cuddles. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else, so I’ll always treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and get to know their individual personalities, whether they’re energetic and playful or prefer a quiet cuddle on the sofa! I’m available all day Thursday–Saturday, and before 9am or after 6pm Sunday–Wednesday. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of care, attention and cuddles. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and little messages, so you know they’re happy and well looked after while you’re away! I only offer pet care in the pet owner’s home and do not offer boarding or house sitting at my own home. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own, following their usual routines and any specific instructions you leave me. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and well cared for.

“Highly recommend booking in with Chloe! Piper is a rescue and can be a bit anxious at first but as soon as I met Chloe I knew I could trust her to look after Piper! I got regular updates and photos from Chloe which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that my dog was not only well cared for but genuinely happy and comfortable. If you’re looking for someone to look after your dog, I can’t recommend Chloe enough! I’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Honestly I don’t know where to begin! As an extremely anxious cat mum I didn’t think I was ever going on a holiday again and then we found Robyn, from the minute I sent the first message Robyn was SO helpful. Fast forward to holidays and I do not have anything negative to say! Robyn eased my nerves, check in everyday with photos of my girls and just let me know how they were getting on! I think my cats are devastated she has left and I’m home! If you have any reservations about having someone else look after you fur babies Robyn is your gal!”

About: I have been looking after and walking dogs since the age of 12, my family members and friends often rely on me to take their dogs on toilet breaks and walks allowing them to get exercises when the owner is unable to do so. For the past three years I have been dog sitting in owners homes while they are on holiday to ensure as little disruption to the pet as possible. I’m currently working part time, just three nights a week, so I’ll have plenty of free time to play, walk and engage with your puppy I will care for your fur baby, by stepping into their routine with as little disruption as possible. This will be done by getting clear instructions, knowing emergency contacts, pets will feel comfortable in their own home surrounded by comforting items.

“An absolute superstar, thanks again Sidney! She stayed in our home for 1 week taking care of our dog Charlie, sent regular updates and photos and left our house is such a nice and clean state. Everything went so smoothly and we left on our first holiday together with our children knowing Charlie was left in safe hands with lots of attention, cuddles and calmness ☺️ would without hesitation book you again and recommend you to whoever was looking for a reliable and kind soul to look after your four legged best friend 💞”

About: I have a cat and a dog as well as frequently dog sitting for family and friends. I have cared for a variety of animals; ranging from a puppy to a senior cat and also two large labradoodles. I would say that i am very good at understanding cat and dog language as I have made a point to teach myself. I love playing with pets as-well as offering them lots of cuddles! I am currently in university for social work. I am in class on Tuesday and a half day on the Thursday. Other than that, i am usually at home with my cat and dog. I probably see my cat more than anyone haha. I ensure that the animals are comfortable and receive my full attention. I think it is important to understand animals specific behaviours and needs to understand how to care for them.

“Everything was great! She took Millie on long walks and sent me some pics! I would definitely hire her again and recommend that you do the same.”

“Abbie was absolutely brilliant! Great communication ahead of and during the booking and our boy loved her from the minute he met her. She took great care of both our pooch and our home while we were away, with updates throughout. I'm sure we'll be using Abbie again for future trips!”

About: Hi I am Frances, anyone that spends five minutes in my company will tell you that I love all animals but especially Dogs, I feel as though they are just beautiful, caring, compassionate, clever and all round awesome beings that we don't deserve. Can't help but smile when in their company, Living their best life every day in the moment. No coincidence that their name is God backwards. I have had 2 dogs of my own in the past who I consider to be my family and am at a loss without my Son at the moment. I babysit for my friends Dogs if they have commitments elsewhere and consider it a privilege to do so. You don't have to own a dog to be my friend, but it helps :). Rest assured your fur babies are spoiled with me and we have fun playing, and chilling in between the adventure walks with lot's of Pink Panther sniffing / investigating to be done as well as special treat sausages from the Local Butchers with your permission of course. I have recently returned from Rwanda and Uganda where I had an amazing experience trekking in the National Forest Park to see the mighty Silverback Gorilla and his family. I have also travelled to Borneo where I volunteered at an Orangutan Sanctuary ( Jungle School - on Netflix ) and have also volunteered with the SSPCA in the past too. It would be an absolute pleasure to look after your furry family member and would be awesome to be their honorary Auntie and included in their pack. I currently work from home Monday and Friday from 8.30 to 3.30 and in the office on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8.30 to 4.30. I am therefore able to look after your Fur babies for long weekends Fri to Mon easily fitting in with their own specific schedules. I am hoping to be able to make this a full time job in the future, as it would be a dream come true to be able to care for your pets and be paid to do so?! In an ideal world I would have won the lottery and I would pay you for the privilege of your babies company. I have a private fenced garden that allows security and safety for your pet to be able to go out for fresh air throughout the day in between the bigger walks - minimum of an hour of sniffing if allowed. Your pet will be allowed up on the couch and bed with fluffy blankets for comfort if allowed only, as I would not allow if not the norm for pet. All their requirements will be adhered and catered for, so as not to disrupt their usual routine.

“Chloe was great with Axel, she has experience with large breed dogs and his size and cheeky behaviour did not put her off. Chloe came for a meet beforehand and is a confident, happy young lady. Chloe arrived on time as arranged and could not fault her. Axel had a great time in her company.”

“James was absolutely great with Toby (slightly high-maintenance senior lab!) right from the start. He took on a barrage of instructions without batting an eyelid, and sent loads of photos showing Toby looking super chilled - which helped make my evening out equally relaxed. Will definitely be asking him to help out again.”

“Mark is a fantastic dog sitter, so flexible and kind and just brilliant with our anxious rescue dog. We went away on holiday knowing that she was in safe and lovely hands and receiving lots of love from Mark. Thanks again Mark for taking such great care of Tia. We would definitely recommend booking Mark for dog sitting!”

About: Over the years I have had 6 cats, 2 dogs, hamsters, parrots and fish so I have always had a love for animals! I have plenty of experience in caring for them and know what they need. I have had pets who have had ongoing medical needs including regular medicine. I’m the go-to contact for friends and family when they need someone to pet-sit! My partner, Huzaifah, will be helping take care of your pet. He’s an animal lover and has looked after cats, dogs, ferrets, fish, and iguana and a tortoise. I work part time and my partner, who also adores animals, works full time from home so your pet will always have company! We don’t work weekends or bank holidays. We currently have 2 gerbils in a cage in our spacious upper cottage flat with an unfenced garden. The gerbils are elevated so there shouldn’t be any issues, they love the company of other animals!

“Hannah was brilliant, and Clyde absolutely loved her. Big walk and then cuddles on the sofa, we will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Genny was excellent with Rex, they got on so well. Lots of walks, lots of attention just like he likes. Communication from the outset was first class and daily updates when we were away. Highly recommended professional person.”

“Jess was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Nala. Nala is super excitable and can be reactive at times, so I was a little anxious about leaving her. But Jess handled everything so smoothly. She really knew how to work with Nala’s energy and made her feel totally comfortable. Jess also kept me updated the whole time with messages and pictures, which made me feel so much more at ease. It was great to know Nala was having a good time and I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter – Jess was awesome!”

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and ages. I have looked after two medium-to-large dogs at the same time, including a Golden Retriever and a Standard Poodle, taking care of their daily walks, feeding, playtime and routines. I also have experience caring for both young puppies and senior dogs, who may need extra patience, attention and gentle care. For senior dogs, I’m comfortable helping with feeding, administering oral medication, cleaning and wiping them when needed, and applying topical medication according to the owner’s instructions. I understand that every dog has their own personality, habits and needs. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, happy and well cared for. My schedule is currently quite flexible, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention and company they need. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting. I’m also happy to discuss timings and routines in advance to find what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication and daily routines, as I understand that every pet has different needs and habits. I’m patient with both young and senior pets and always respect their personality and boundaries. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away, so you can feel reassured that your pet is safe, happy and well cared for.

About: I have had cats from a young age and currently have 2 pedigree house cats. I have been per sitting for several years on Catinaflat and I have looked after dogs of others for many years. I work as a special needs teacher in Renfrewshire Monday to Thursday. I sometimes have tournaments on Saturdays August to April but these are normally local. I am not able to take any dogs or cats into my home as I already have 2 indoor cats. I would come to your home for food visits or walks or both. I can do overnight stays too where I would do a feed before and after bedtime (plus an evening and morning walk for dogs).

About: I grew up around dogs, my grandparents and family friends had dogs and I was often tasked with walking them growing up. Work and study commitments prevented me having my own, but I work from home now so am around during the day for constant supervision and regular play and toilet breaks. In the unlikely event of an emergency, I would of course contact you immediately and seek emergency vetinary services. Happy to discuss your pet-sitting needs, drop me a message. I would be happy to take more than one dog depending on the case. I work from home so am flexible for park walks and toilet duties. I am happy to work around the owners set schedule, if they for example get out for early morning walks I'm happy to maintain this routine I have a one-bedroom flat, so space is limited but I have more than enough room for small dogs or cats. I have bedding, treats, toys and am available all day to supervise
