“Harry loves Karina. It's amazing how at ease Harry is with her so early on. Harry's hearing is not as good as it used to be so one day when Karina came in the house he didn't hear her, she found him on my bed fast asleep and stroked him to wake him up. What a lovely way to wake up for a walk. ❤️”


2. Jeffrey P.

“Jeff is truly amazing at what he does. Both Oscar and Chester adore him, and my wife and I feel so comfortable knowing our fur babies are well looked after. Nothing is too much trouble for Jeff. He is kind, caring, and highly experienced in his work. I have always had issues with Oscar pulling while walking, making our walks more like an Olympic marathon. However, in just a week since Jeff has started, Oscar is now walking by my side and not interacting with other people or dogs, making the walks stress-free for both of us. Thank you, Jeff, for your incredible work!”

“Holly has looked after our 3 dogs on numerous occasions whilst we have been away on holiday and city breaks. All 3 of our dogs love her! Holly ensures regular walks are completed, and their needs are met whilst at the home. I highly recommend Holly for her pet services.”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life, ranging from big breeds to small breeds. I have grown to adore them and love spending time with animals. I have had puppies so know how to puppy train. I grew up on farms so am familiar with high energy active dogs. I currently only work part time so have plenty of free time to play with your pups. I’m available any day of the week to help. I know how important your fur babies are, therefore I’ll make sure to stick to their usual routines. I’ll make sure your dog feels comfortable and receives lots of attention(cuddles). I will provide regular walks to ensure your dog is exercised.

6. Rachel M.
“Rachel has recently looked after Ralph and I am lucky to have found someone so caring to look after him. He loved spending time with Rachel and her friendly fluffy dog Lister :) !! She always sends me an update of the adventures they have and what Ralph has been up to. I know that whenever Ralph is with Rachel he is in good company and he also sulks when he comes home!!!! For anyone looking for someone to look after their dog, I'd fully recommend. Thanks so much again Rachel”

“Couldn’t think of anyone better to look after my little dog! Very caring, treats them as her own, gives them all the cuddles and walks they deserve and makes sure that feel part of the family :)”


8. Zobia A.

“Zobia is an amazing cat sitter! Was initially hesitant to leave my cat with someone new but she quickly put my worries to rest and went above and beyond, and kept me updated multiple times a day and even video called me when I was missing my best friend. Couldn’t have asked for a more caring and attentive cat sitter”

She is kind, caring, realiable and trustworthy, making a lovely sitter for your pets whilst your away. They would definitely recieve all the love care and attention they need.”


10. Bethany M.
About: I had my gorgeous Labrador Leo for the last 15 years and he was my loyal companion. When he sadly passed away, my friends used to ask me if I wanted to take their animals for walks and always come to me if they go away and need someone to sit for them. It made me realise I would love to help other people and my friends have always said it would be amazing for me to do this with my love of animals. I only work part time so I have plenty of free time to be able to accommodate this and I’m available for boardings from Wednesday to Sundays and any days morning or evening for walks on those days. I am happy to sit anytime from Wednesday to Sundays but it would be at the owners home and not my own as I live with my parents


11. Lydia S.
“I can highly recommend Lydia, she looked after my 9th month old viszla in May overnight. He is still in training and very boisterous but this did not phase Lydia, she was great with him. She is a real natural with dogs x”


12. William O.
About: Having grown up with larger dogs and owned my own I would definitely say that larger dogs are my preference. I have gained an experience in handling medication for animals and administering them as required. I do currently work full time Monday to Friday and play football Saturdays. Pet care would ideally be in the evenings 7 days, or Saturday mornings/evenings and all day Sunday. We have a 3 year old Doberman who is an absolute wreck-it Ralph, but a total sweetheart. She is walked, exercised and trained daily. A wonderful girl


13. Richard O.
“I would highly recommend Rich. He treats all dogs as though they are his own. He is loving and caring and makes sure they have the best time!”

About: We are happy that you are here and spending some time getting to know us! We love animals and have a true talent for taking care of them (even if we do say so ourselves). From big to small, furry to feathered, we are good with all breeds and can cater to their specific needs. Whenever we are looking after someone's pet, we treat them as though they are our own, always making sure they're comfortable, happy and well-fed. We like to think we have a friendly and approachable nature. Pets and their owners feel at ease with us because it is clear to see that we genuinely care about their well-being. We know how difficult it is to leave them, especially when they may have special requirements or an anxious disposition but we are here for you just as much as we are for your pets. We understand how important your furry friends are to you, and we will make sure to keep you updated with regular check-ins, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are in good, loving and caring hands. We are a couple in our early 20's looking to experience as much of the UK as we can before we move abroad in January. We love being outdoors and luckily working completely remote we can spend ALL day either enjoying long countryside hikes and walks or cuddled up on the couch with your fur babies! Han also loves being in the gym as she is CrossFit coach and trains in Olympic Weightlifting! We work completely remotely so we are at home all day with your fur babies being on hand to give cuddles and treats. We create our own working hours so our schedule is very loose. We normally do a morning walk of an hour or so and an evening walk however this can all be tailored to your needs and wishes! If you’re happy - we’re happy! We will come and care for your pets in the comfort and safety of their own home. Besides being great with pets, we also have the greenest thumbs (well, Liv has the greenest thumbs) and can take care of house plants as well as your garden. It's nice to know you can rely on us to keep your home and pets thriving while you're away. We are also very respectful of your space and will leave everything just as we have found it. We would love the opportunity to look after your pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve while you're away. We have tried to cover all bases but if you want any more info, our social media platforms, a phone, or video call - just shoot us a message. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and we want you to feel supported whilst making such a big decision.

“Kirsty is a wonderfully caring animal lover who goes out of her way to ensure any animal is treated to the best standard possible, wether it’s a snail crossing a pathway to a Great Dane she’d be the first to ensure it’s safety. I would recommend anyone who is in need a of a caregiver to go with Kirsty as your animal will come home fully satisfied with their time away with her.”


16. Robin R.
“Robin came to look after my cats while I was away and they did an amazing job! My eldest cat has a tablet everyday and I got plenty of updates on when she had taken it and how my other cats were doing with their food as well as within themselves which was really easing me as I hate being away from them! My cats absolutely love them now and I can’t recommend them enough!”


17. Alex F.
“Alex has had a wide experience with many animals (dogs/cats) over the time that I have known her being that her own or looking after friends and families. Alex has a lot of patience and care for animals, she is very observant of any dangers upon walking dogs and uses her own initiative when needed. Very trustworthy and kind girl.”
