Pet Sitting in Rochdale

About: I have around one year professional experience with animals thought volunteering but have had family pets all 21 years of my life. I’ve always loved animals, having experience with my own pets since I was young (primarily cats, dogs and rabbits) and spending lots of time in nature. This led me to take a degree in Wildlife Conservation with Zoo biology which I have just completed and I’ll be graduating from in the upcoming months- including modules on animal welfare, behaviour and enclosure design. Alongside this I have been developing my animal handling skills, volunteering as a dog walker/pet sitter through BorrowMyDoggy, Trusted house sitters and as an animal care assistant at the RSPCA. I currently have two dogs, one of which suffers with sight and anxiety related issues, which has provided me with the patience and understanding required working particularly with animals with additional requirements. I also have seven cats at the moment (one of which is an 8 week old kitten of a pregnant stray which I rescued) so I have experience with all cat personalities and age groups, also including those with additional requirements. As I have just finished university I am looking to build a career for myself in pet care. As I am committed and passionate about this, I am available full time. I will always work to prioritise an animals welfare and because I have an anxious dog myself, I am unable to provide animal care in my home, however I do have previous experience with pet sitting in the owner’s home and would be happy to continue this. I would adapt my care to the individual pets needs and try to maintain their regular schedule where possible- such as walks at a consistent time, walk length, energy levels.

About: Dogs are my life, looked after dogs from all ages since I was a kid myself. I feel dogs on a different level. With so much love, care and kindness to give your pups are in the best hands. I am a student, since it’s summer break I am available all day everyday and night! Whenever you need me I’ll be there! With so much flexibility! Fenced huge garden with lots of room for your pups to play. Easy to separate dogs with enough room for them to play around at all times.

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Andrew provided for our cat, Phoebe, while we were away. From the very beginning, Andrew was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive to Phoebe’s needs. He kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us such peace of mind knowing Phoebe was in such caring hands. When we returned, Phoebe was calm, happy, and clearly well looked after — her litter was clean, food and water were fresh, and she even seemed to have enjoyed the extra playtime and cuddles. Andrew went above and beyond, and it made all the difference. We feel so lucky to have found such a reliable and genuinely caring sitter. We highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their furry family members. Thank you again, Andrew — Phoebe can’t wait to see you next time!”

About: I have owned my own dog for 9 years and have trained him myself from being a very reactive, nervous pup to being the goodest of boys. He is fantastic with children and all animals big or small. I have no prior professional experience walking dogs as I am a full time primary school teacher but absolutely adore dogs (all animals really…) and I’m looking for a bit of extra work and couldn’t think of a better way to spend my mornings, evenings and weekends than walking doggos. 🐶 I understand as a pet owner how much our fur babies mean to us and would take care of them and treat them as my own when they are in my care. I’m available Monday to Friday 7am to 8am and then 4pm onwards and available every weekend. I’m also available 24/7 during the school holidays and half terms I will care for pets in their own home by following usual routines as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I will make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of toilet breaks, and daily exercise suited to their age and energy level. I will spend quality time giving them affection, play, and enrichment. I will treat every pet as if they were my own, and I will keep homes clean, secure, and just as the owner left it — with regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease.

About: Experience of caring for puppies as well as much older dogs, who may need extra medication, time and care. Willing to go the extra mile! As a primary school teacher for over 2 decades, I'm now reducing my hours to part-time. I'm hoping this will allow me the opportunity to do something I love on a regular basis. After having cared for my own dog, as well as many others for friends and family, I am looking to offer my services to more families. I have offered home boarding in the past, but starting off getting to know your pets through a home visit & dog walking service in the first instance.

“Sally is lovely, efficient and well prepared. Needed a last minute booking and a swift meet and greet was a arranged and she took the time to understand ollies specific needs being an elderly dog. Would recommend sally for a reliable and trustworthy service.”

About: Hi👋 My name is Charlotte and I have a twelve year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier called Padfoot :) I am a volunteer dog walker at my local animal sanctuary (Bleakholt) but haven't been able to visit much due to COVID. I am a lover of all animals but dogs are definitely my weak spot (I'm obsessed, to say the least)! My own boy can be dog reactive when out on a lead so I am experienced and comfortable dealing with any dogs that have similar issues. I welcome all breeds, all sizes and all ages. High energy temperament dogs do not bother me in the slightest either (in fact, I love it)! Your pet will definitely be in safe hands with me- and you'll probably even end up getting some cute photos of them, too!📸 I work permanent nights- five days a week. Therefore, I am always available during the day time to walk your fur babies when you aren't able to :) Unfortunately I am not able to take care of any pets in my own home due to having a dog myself that doesn't like other animals. I work permanent nights, so I am always available in the day time for your fur-babies! I may just sometimes be a little sleep-deprived (lol)! I unfortunately do not offer home boarding at the moment, due to having a reactive dog of my own. I'm always happy to come to you, though :)

About: I grew up with 5 cats and a snake my whole life and also have mice and pet birds so am experienced in taking care of new animals no matter what shape/size/species. I work full time (5on 3 off) on lates so i am able to look after animals during the day/morning or on my days off. I have a fenced garden with plenty of space for your pets to roam and feel safe. I am also available to do home visits if the pet feels safer at there own home.

About: I have often cared for doggies and cats of many kinds, for neighbours so walking, feeding, bathing and caring for them is something I have always enjoyed within my life. I am also looking to expand my experiences with different pets, and make more memories. I am currently a university student, at The University of Central Lancashire. I always have plenty of time to care for pets in the evenings, whether that be walking or caring for them for a set period of time. I am able to take on roles and accommodate them across Greater Manchester, due to having a student dorm in Preston and then my family home in Heywood. Although not having a pet myself currently, I did have a Yorkshire terrier who has unfortunately passed. Benji will always hold a place in my heart. My home and neighbourhood is very pet friendly. My home is large, with plenty space for pets to explore and not only my garden but many fields across the road where the pet may play.

About: With over 6 years of hands-on dog training experience, I specialize in behavior support, puppy training, and senior pet care. I’m qualified through IMDT, ATI (ABTC), and more, and I tailor care to meet each animal’s needs. I’ve worked with assistance dogs, nervous rescues, and reactive pets, using positive reinforcement and compassion in every interaction. I also offer feline care—understanding cat behavior, routines, and the importance of a calm, clean environment. Whether it’s giving medication, enrichment, or specialized walks, I ensure your pet is treated like family. Pet care is a core part of my daily life—I run a dog training business, so I’m highly flexible and accustomed to adapting my routine around pet needs. I offer weekday and weekend availability, with consistent check-ins and quality time with each animal. Your pet’s routine becomes part of mine, and I make sure they feel safe, engaged, and loved every day. I maintain your pet’s routine, ensure a clean space, and follow all safety protocols, including secure lead handling and safe transport if needed. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, enriched environment, supervised socialization, and structured activities that promote their mental and physical well-being. I treat every pet with respect, patience, and care—as if they were my own.

About: Dogs have been the most important thing for most of my life- and I've always been the first port of call to care for one. If we work together, we can reach the best outcome for your dog's life. Bruce, my late 10-year-old Chocolate Labrador, received the best possible care from me after his spinal tumour surgery. I held his paw right the way through. Adapting walking location and duration, vet appointments, and ensuring correct medication times is just scratching the surface. Afterwards, our lovely puppy Wilma was introduced to our house at just nine weeks old. I've taught her basic commands and recall, behaviour and walking appropriately on lead, and with my care she's flourished into a beautiful 6-month-old Golden Labrador. Diverting from our family dogs, I've had a lot of vibrant experience caring for other dogs like Daschunds and Samoyeds. I am also studying a course in dog walking and dog sitting. Puppy or senior, I have you covered. I will cherish and love them just like my own. I am currently off university for the summer so I am free any day of the week to spend some quality time with your pets and give them the love and care they deserve. In my home we have large open spaces indoors to allow dogs to roam freely and not feel confined with plenty of rooms if your dog prefers some alone time. The garden is above average sized and is fenced off to keep their safety. There are stairs in the garden but we do have the ability to block these off and your dog can still explore the top part if needed. My friendly Labrador lives here so any services at my home will require a pre-visit to ensure the dogs are okay with each others company for everyone's safety. Our house is a lovely semi detached on a quiet road in Wardle with plenty of nearby walks; Watergrove Reservoir's just round the corner if your dog loves a swim!

About: Hi! I'm a university graduate based in Greater Manchester. I have experience with different domestic animals, cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, and even some insects. I absolutely adore every animal I've cared for and have taken pride in providing a caring and enriching experience for each one. I love learning about each animal and their behaviour to provide them with a fun and comfortable environment whilst their loved ones are away. I have previously owned rabbits and stick insects, and I currently have a beautiful little hamster called Kammy. He's full of mischief. I have experience of caring for dogs and cats of different sizes too. If you have a large dog I only require that they are well behaved on a lead. I have experience with clients on a different pet sitting app caring for cats and dogs. My services include dog walks, drop in visits, overnight stays and day time sitting. I'm based in Greater Manchester but I'm willing to travel within reason, especially for extended overnight stays. Tell me about your pet! What do they like? What's their personality like? Are they energetic or more chilled out? What's their routine like? Do they have any favourite activities? Is there anything else you'd like me to know? If you have any questions feel free to ask! I’m currently quite flexible and will be fully focussed on caring for your pets during my time with them, including lots of play time and attention. I like to stick to your pets usual schedule so they experience the least amount of disruption possible. So just let me know what their usual day looks like. I will always look after your home well whilst I’m caring for your pet.

About: Hi, I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats with my personal pets. I’ve been around animals since I was 15, and they’ve truly shaped my life. I grew up with a beautiful springer spaniel who we raised from a pup — she was full of energy, love, and personality, and taught me so much about what it means to care for a dog. Most recently, I welcomed a standard dachshund into my life. If you know dachshunds, you know they can be a handful — smart, stubborn, and full of quirks! We got him when he was one, and while we don’t know his full background, I’ve learned how to be patient, intuitive, and understanding of dogs with unique personalities and pasts. Later in life, I met my partner who had cats — and it didn’t take long for me to fall in love with them, too. Their independence, sweetness, and quiet companionship won me over completely. For me, animals are therapeutic. They bring so much joy, comfort, and calm to our lives, and I truly believe they deserve the same love and care that we do as humans. Whether it’s a high-energy pup, a shy rescue, or a cuddly cat, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, kindness, and lots of affection. I’d love to meet your furry friend and help care for them with the attention and love they deserve! Right now, I’m taking a break from university where I’m studying to become a children’s nurse. That means I’ve got a lot of free time on my hands — and what better way to spend it than caring for animals! I’m very active, love the outdoors, and go on long walks daily, which makes pet sitting and dog walking a perfect fit for me. I will follow any care instructions closely, and I’m always happy to send updates and photos, so you can feel reassured that your pet is happy, safe, and sticking to their usual routine. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to a feeding schedule, or just providing company, I’ll ensure your pet’s needs are fully met.
