About: I’ve looked after animals for as long as I can remember — it’s not just something I do, it’s who I am. I’m at home full-time, which means I can give animals the time, attention, and care they truly deserve. Whether it’s keeping them safe, happy, well-fed, exercised, or simply keeping them company, their wellbeing always comes first. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and loved. From quiet cuddles to playtime and daily care, I treat every animal as if they were my own. If you’re looking for someone reliable, patient, and genuinely devoted to animals, you can rest easy knowing they’ll be in caring hands with me. It will fit in because I am a stay at home mum and my children are older so it is just me looking after the pets. I have fenced garden and outdoor cattery and locked and I have security cameras over the property. The animals have a large Area to relax and exercise.

“Very happy with Bethany, always punctual and Columbia enjoys her walks with her 😊”

About: Having had animals from a young age, I have always loved being around and caring for cats and dogs. I had a Sprocker spaniel growing up and enjoyed the energy and walks, and wanting to continue being around animals without my own at this time. I'm currently looking for a part time role and this fits perfectly around this, improving my physical health and my ambitions to make this full time! We would enjoy walks in the park with play time in the garden/ local areas. Within the next few months I will have a fenced garden close to fields, local parks and the sea within driving distance. Will be able to love for your furry as my own.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I also volunteered at a dog shelter for 6 years, where I cared for rescue dogs by feeding, walking, cleaning kennels, providing enrichment, and helping nervous or shy dogs build confidence around people. I’m comfortable looking after puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I always tailor my care to each dog’s individual needs and routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My priority is ensuring every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care.

About: As a Fear Free Level 2 Certified veterinary professional, I prioritise creating a calm, positive experience for every pet in my care. I’ve looked after animals of all ages and temperaments, including energetic puppies and senior pets with special needs. I’m confident with administering medications, supporting pets with anxiety, and maintaining consistent routines that make animals feel safe and loved. Throughout my veterinary education, I’ve been actively involved in learning about animal behaviour—attending puppy classes in my spare time during clinical rotations to deepen my understanding and practical skills. My veterinary background, combined with my Fear Free certification and hands-on experience, sets me apart from other sitters. I bring a calm, gentle approach and tailor my care to each pet’s emotional and physical needs. I’m observant, detail-oriented, and genuinely love building trust with animals—whether it’s through play, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and notes, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in caring hands. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine. I’m currently working from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. As a Fear Free Certified veterinary professional, I’m used to structuring my time around animal wellbeing and always make sure each pet gets the time, engagement, and comfort they need. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s usual routine to keep things calm and familiar for them. Whether I’m caring for pets in their own home or mine, their safety and emotional wellbeing are always my top priorities. As a Fear Free Certified veterinary professional, I’m trained to recognise signs of stress and respond in a calm, reassuring way that helps pets feel secure. I take time to build trust through gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and sticking to familiar routines. In a pet owner's home, I’m respectful of the space and follow all instructions closely—whether that’s feeding, medication, walk routines, or specific behavioural cues. I maintain a clean, hazard-free environment and keep pets mentally and physically engaged while also ensuring they get time to rest and feel at ease. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I'm a huge dog lover with experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. Over the years I've regularly dog sat and walked dogs for friends, including overnight stays in owners' homes and welcoming dogs into my own home for day care and overnight stays. One of my favourite walking companions is Milo, a friendly Cockapoo who loves long walks and is wonderful with my children. I enjoy getting outdoors and making sure dogs have the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need. I'm based in Rochford and love exploring the local area with dogs. Some of my favourite routes include walks along the River Roach, through Magnolia Park, and around the local green spaces nearby. I also live close to "Teletubby Land", a popular area where dogs can enjoy plenty of space to run and play. My current availability is Monday to Friday between 9:30am and 2:45pm, making me ideal for daytime walks while owners are at work or busy during the day. I can also offer some weekend availability. I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for, and I will always treat them as if they were my own. My availability is currently Monday to Friday between 9:30am and 2:45pm, which fits perfectly with daytime dog walks, pet visits, and check-ins while owners are at work or away from home. I can also offer some weekend availability, depending on the date and requirements. As a local Rochford resident, I'm familiar with the surrounding area and can be flexible with walks and visits nearby. I aim to provide dependable, caring support for pets and their owners, and I'm always happy to discuss individual needs and schedules where possible. Your pet's safety, wellbeing, and happiness will always be my top priority. I take the time to get to know each pet's individual needs, routines, and personality so that they feel comfortable and secure while in my care. Whether it's a dog walk, a home visit, or a day stay, I'll ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and care. I live in a safe, family-friendly area in Rochford with a small garden and easy access to local walking routes and open spaces. My children are used to being around dogs and are always taught to be calm, gentle, and respectful around animals. One of our regular canine visitors, Milo the Cockapoo, gets on wonderfully with them and enjoys joining us on long walks. For cats, I understand that many prefer the comfort and familiarity of their own home and routine. During visits, I'll make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter tray, and as much attention—or personal space—as they prefer. Whether your cat is sociable and playful or more independent, I'll adapt to their needs and help them feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. I understand how important trust is when leaving your beloved pet with someone else, and I'll always treat your pets and your home with respect. I'm happy to provide updates and photos during visits or stays so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well looked after.

About: Hi! I'm Jo, a reliable and experienced dog walker and pet sitter who absolutely loves spending time with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities.

About: I’m a qualified veterinary nurse with 7 years of professional experience, providing a high standard of care. I’m highly confident with medical care, administering medication, monitoring health, supporting anxious animals, and providing structured, loving routines. Your pet will always be treated as if they were my own — safe, loved, and genuinely cared for🤍🐾 Alongside this, I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, with dogs always in the family (Labrador’s mostly!). We now own a working cocker spaniel, who I’ve personally helped train, giving me even more experience with puppy development, endless energy and lots of training!🐶 I work a 4-day week in London, but, I will have plenty of time to look after your pups on my rota’d day off each week or, on weekends🤍 As a qualified veterinary nurse, your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority. On walks, your dog will be safely on-lead. I’ll consider their confidence, energy levels & socialisation needs, offering low-stress environments for nervous dogs, solo walks or, even walks with my own friendly (neutered) dog if they enjoy company. During drop-ins or sitting, I’ll respect your home at all times and also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured your pet is happy and in safe, experienced hands🐾

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs. Whilst I was at university, I began dog walking as a hobby — helping my neighbours care for their dogs during the day while also giving myself a reason to get outdoors and do something that truly made me happy. What started as a small pastime quickly became something I looked forward to every day. Since then, my love for dogs has only grown, and I’m now the proud owner of a cockapoo called Peggy. She’s incredibly friendly, loves meeting new furry friends, and is always happiest when she’s surrounded by other dogs. I currently work remotely, which means I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pups the attention, play, and exercise they deserve. Having a dog of my own means I’m always ready for an adventurous walk, rain or shine! I’m also available for house sitting during the week or at weekends, and I’m happy to work around your needs to make sure your dog feels comfortable and well cared for. With plenty of experience caring for dogs in their own homes, I’m more than happy to stick closely to your dog’s usual routine to keep them calm, comfortable, and settled. If your pup enjoys playing and socialising, they’ll have a wonderful time spending the day with my friendly cockapoo, Peggy — she loves the company of other dogs! Above all, I’m always happy to follow your lead and care for your pet in the way that suits them best.

About: I am currently transitioning from a professional corporate career to dedicate myself fully to my passion for canine care. As a mother and a lifelong dog owner, I understand that your dog is a cherished member of your family. I bring a high level of organisation, reliability, and professional integrity to my work, ensuring your pet is safe and well cared for while you are away. ​My experience is built on years of personal ownership and caring for the pets of friends and family. I am experienced with a wide range of breeds, but I have a particular love for Jack Russell Terriers. I enjoy their spirited personalities and the unique energy they bring, and I am very comfortable managing the "terrier attitude" with patience and consistency. To ensure I provide the best possible care, I am currently studying for my Level 3 in K9 Care and Welfare (VTQ). I believe that a consistent, predictable routine is essential for a dog's well being. During a typical home visit or walk from your home, I start with a thorough safety check of your dog’s lead and harness. We will head out to local spots for exercise and mental stimulation. After our walk, I ensure paws are wiped, ticks are checked for, and fresh water is provided. If I am sitting at your home, I strictly follow your dog's feeding, walking and garden schedule to keep their stress levels low. Your dog’s safety and your home's security are my absolute priorities. ​Vetted and Insured: I am fully DBS checked and operate with comprehensive pet-sitting insurance. ​Emergency Prepared: I am VTQ K9 First Aid trained (and I carry a pet specific first aid kit on all walks. ​I pride myself on clear, professional communication and will provide you with regular photos and updates throughout our time together so you have total peace of mind. Pet care is a core part of my daily routine, and I’ve structured my day to ensure I’m available when dogs need me most. I dedicate two primary blocks of time to my furry clients: 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM for morning and midday exercise, and 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM for late afternoon walks. ​By keeping these windows consistent, I can provide reliable, on time visits that fit perfectly around my family commitments while ensuring your pup stays active and happy throughout the day. I believe trust is built through professional knowledge and genuine care. As a current student of the Level 3 Canine Care and Welfare qualification, I bring an academic understanding of dog behaviour and welfare to every walk. This helps me read body language effectively, ensuring your dog is always comfortable, happy, and stress free in my care. ​Your pet’s safety is my absolute priority: ​Emergency Preparedness: I am VTQ First Aid trained (in-person), meaning I have the practical skills to handle unexpected situations calmly and effectively. ​Home Security: I treat your home with the utmost respect, following all security protocols, ensuring gates are locked, and double-checking that your dog is settled and hydrated before I depart. ​Attentive Walking: I maintain full focus on your dog during our time together, staying alert to the environment and avoiding potential hazards or stressful encounters. ​I provide detailed updates and photos after every session, so you can have total peace of mind knowing your pup is in the hands of someone who truly understands and prioritises their well being.
