“Thank you David for looking after my dog so well. Rodney came home happy and relaxed… like he had had a day at the spa! David was kind and a good communicator - so even though my booking was a little last minute - as a first booking time with David he was reassuring and welcomed my dog gladly. We hope to see you again soon! 🤗”


“Charlotte is a fantastic carer of my dog. She is reliable and intuitive to my dog’s needs. I am assured my Rodney is safe and well looked after with solid walks/exercise given. I highly recommend Charlotte!”


“Nicola was brilliant with Lucky, welcoming and loving. She sent me many videos and photos so I knew my puppy was having a good time. And she even offered to drop him off for me when I couldn't go to collect him, for which I am very grateful. Thank you Nicola and I am sure Lucky looks forward to come and play with your doggies again!”


About: I’ve had animals all through my life. I have looked after dogs, cats, fish, birds, Guinea pigs, chickens, goats, snakes, tortoises. I love animals and my life experience with animals is vast. I am a caring person to animals. I’m currently a respite foster carer and have been for years. I am DBS advanced checked because of looking after children. I can mostly work during the week but can consider weekends, so I’m flexible. I have a large walled garden. I have a tortoise that lives out during summer. I have looked after Neighbors and friends pets whether it’s a holiday or a weekend away. I am happy to visit homes to offer care and potty breaks. If I were asked to care in the owners home I would ask what was expected and follow this so that everything is safe and fine. I would get pet care guidance off owners.

“Mary was fantastic, my only regret is that I don’t live in town or else I’d use her all the time! Boodle ran straight to her when we arrived at the house and it was very clear he’d had a lovely day when we picked him up. Mary was communicative and caring - we couldn’t ask for better!”


About: I have years of experience with different pets, from dog sitting and walking, to clean up after a messy walk (i will still walk your pets whatever the weather). Animals build their trust in me very quickly. I am very reliable and will take whatever measures required to keep your pet and your home safe. I work as a graphic designer 4 days a week with the freedom to work from home if need be. I have plenty of availability to look after your lovely pets. I am a reliable house sitter who will keep your home safe and tidy. I absolutely love all animals, and will be sure to give them plenty of love and attention, offering the right care suited to their needs.

“Dropped Gizmo off for an initial couple of hours to see how he would get on with doggy day care as he has separation/anxiety issues. Cannot thank Caron enough for how accommodating she was with Gizmo and for all her patience. Already rebooked for another visit, highly recommend!”


About: Experienced ex cat owner and family dog for 14 years. Confident with dealing with animals with high medical needs as my own animals had them.

For the past 19 years ' Bobby' was our family cat, he was elderly and liked to be the only pet in the house ,but he passed away in 2024 and before we adopt our own dog we wanted to take some time looking after other dogs. And so far we've really enjoyed it! From tiny to large, from bouncy to reserved, each dog in our care has been unique and we've loved getting to know them. Whilst James is at home in the evenings and weekend, Mum is at home most days. We have a long fully fenced garden for your pet to play in and they will never be left alone. We will give you regular updates of the fun they are having whilst at our home. We are able to give them long regular walks and ensure they are happy, safe and comfortable.

“I couldn’t have been happier with Eleanor, honestly she looked after our fur baby Luca amazingly! Such a warm and lovely person. I will definitely always pick Eleanor to look after Luca again when needed. Felt so at ease and she was accommodating which was amazing.”


About: Hello! My name is Holly, and I am a dedicated dog lover with over 13 years of experience caring for my own family dog. My passion for animals has taken me across the globe, where I've had the pleasure of house sitting and looking after dogs in various countries (Costa Rica, Spain, Bali, Germany). One of my most memorable experiences was rescuing a puppy in Bali. I nursed her back to health and found her a loving home before I left. I trained her completely and she was the best little dog. This experience solidified my commitment to the well-being and happiness of all animals. I have stayed with dogs for up to a month at a time and just had the best time with them. Owners always receive many updates of their fur babies during their time with me. Although I currently live in London, where having my own dog is a bit challenging, I channel my love for pets through dog sitting. I offer a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry friends, treating them as if they were my own. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety are my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved dog! I work from home full time and sometimes it gets a little lonely in the house so I would love to have your furry friend here with me to keep me company sometimes! My home is a large house that provides plenty of space to explore, a fenced garden for safe outdoor play, and a roof terrace. Additionally, there's a beautiful park less than five minutes away, perfect for walks
