Megan did a wonderful job looking after my cat and fish, and she even watered the flowers because weather was very hot while i was away! She came every day for half an hour to sit with my little cat Beans, who loved having a cuddle and fuss from Megan. I would defo have Megan back again to look after my cat and fish.

Michelle was great with our cats, they both seemed happy when we got home and everything was clean. Communication was great and we had no concerns. We've already booked Michelle for another visit!

About: I’ve had dogs of one sort or another all my life. They have been my constant source of support, company and joy. Now retired after years working from home I am walking dogs for those that need help and support. I am now retired, after years of working from home and looking after the family’s various dogs, cats and assorted weird and wonderful pets. As a retiree, I really don’t have a schedule. As always my dogs dictate my day and we try to be flexible with each other. I really am free to meet the needs of my customers and will always negotiate a way to help. My dogs and cats share my home. I keep them fed and watered and cared for and loved. I consider them my friends and family. I will treat your animals with the same care and consideration.

Victoria is AWESOME! Book her immediately! She was perfect in every way for our baby. She was calm and attentive, flexible and communicated exceptionally. We couldn’t have asked for a more reliable or more friendly sitter. Victoria came on time, did everything we asked and loved our little girl. She supported our pup with her needs, played and gave her so much attention. We felt relaxed knowing that she was in great hands with Victoria. Genuine, helpful and supportive. Second to none. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

About: Hi! If you’re looking for care for your dog that is like your own, look no further. I run a dog waking business in the Rotherham area (Meg’s mutts- dog walking and pet services on FB) I have had experience with a variety of different animals from dogs and cats to bearded dragons and rats. I have experience with most breeds of dog. I currently own a Labrador, a border collie and a lab x collie so I am experienced in caring for and stimulating high energy dogs. I am completely available for dog care as this is now becoming my full time role. The only limitations I have are around school pick up and drop off times and during school holidays I may need to bring my son on walks with dogs that are child friendly, if anyone would be uncomfortable with this I would be able to make alternate childcare arrangements. I can provide care for your pets in their own home. I am DBS checked as before my current role i was a support worker in the community so i am familair with the use of keysafes etc.

About: Both myself and my partner Matt have grown up with dogs all our life. Up until August 2025, we also had a Samoyed who unfortunately passed away. Max is a highly energetic dog who loves to play so we’ve got more than enough experience with him alone. Our garden is fully fenced off and quite large so lots of space for your pets to run around! We also live close to Waverley lakes so have lots of great walks nearby! We already walk Max each day so what’s the harm in one more!? We have an 12 year old son who absolutely adores animals so is very excited to join us on this venture and give your pet all the love! We also have a newborn baby. Currently Matt works Monday to Friday so ideally we keep to boarding on the weekend so that we are both available for your pets. I am currently on maternity so I’m happy and available to do drop in visits and walks during the week. Myself & my partner Matt will be looking after your pets so you’ll have both of us to provide that extra care. Feel free to ask any further questions you need! Matt works Monday to Friday whilst I’m currently on maternity leave. Our preference is to board on a weekend as we are both available to look after your pets. I am available for drop in visits throughout the whole week. We have a secure garden and we have a dog to offer your pet lots of play time if wanted! We are happy to crate your dog if needed but you will need to provide the crate.

About: I have 4 pets, 1 dog and 3 cats. I am used to a bit of mess and no one day is the same in my household, so I can handle any kind of situation or trouble. I’m currently staying at home, as I recently graduated from university, so I am free to take care of animals and am free for mostly all of my week. As it is stated on my profile, I cannot home board any more pets but I am more than willing to stay at someone else’s house and take care of pets or I’m more than happy to regularly check in on Pets that I am assigned to take care of.

About: Your pet isn’t just in safe hands they’re in expert, qualified, and truly caring hands. ️ Vet Recommended 
Full Time Pet Professional.
I have got the patience and the expertise. I'm a Sheffield local of 12 years with a lifelong passion for animal care and a big heart currently missing a canine companion. My deep understanding and love for pets comes from years of hands-on experience. Back in Italy, my family's American Pitbull Terrier, Khabib, was my energetic best friend. We'd enjoy multiple walks daily, often covering 3-4 miles at a time to satisfy his wonderful, lively spirit. I truly miss those walks. I'm also experienced with cats, having cared for our two majestic Maine Coons, Lilith and Satanas. This included daily playtime, gentle brushing, and all the affection they could handle, they always chose my bed to sleep on at night! The main goal with dogs is to know what’s their motivation, it can be the ball, food or something else once you gain control of that your are the Boss, Dogs needs constant leadership in the young ages, and I’m very good instructing discipline and reward their good behaviour with certified first quality treats. Will offer energetic, long walks tailored to your dog's needs, or slow calm strolls to the old or perhaps not so sporty friends. Loving care, playtime. A natural, calming bond animals sense my genuine care and feel at ease. Bonus: As a photography enthusiast, I love capturing pets in their element. I'll happily provide free, beautiful snapshots of your pet enjoying their time with me. Driven by a childhood dream of becoming a vet, my greatest joy is ensuring animals are happy, healthy, and thriving. I would be honoured to provide trustworthy, enthusiastic care for your beloved pets. Ready to give your pet a new best friend for walks and cuddles? Get in touch

About: I am a huge dog lover and have been taking care of them professionally for the last few years but have had pups my entire life. I have lots of experience of walking and caring for all different kinds of doggos, big and small, with various needs and personalities. I promise to care for your fur babies as I do my own, with lots of love and play and will give them a home away from home where they can relax and feel comfortable. I’m currently fully available for walks any day of the week. Whether this be for a regular same time walk or a last minute one off. I would treat your pets just like I treat my own, with lots of love and play. I am used to caring for dogs of all ages, I recently lost my Peaches at the age of 12, she had a push chair and needed extra time on her walks. Whilst my Pru at age 3 and Folly at 10 months are both full of energy and zoomies.

About: I will choose a day with an animal over anything else. I have always had a special spot for them in my heart. In my ideal world, I adopt all the stray dogs and cats in the world. I currently work part time, mainly from home with a flexible routine which enables me to pet care. I have no children, or any other commitments, therefore I am able to be flexible. I live in a house with a nice gated garden with enough room to run and move around. When I’m at their house I take full safety precautions to look after the fur babies and keep them both safe and happy.

About: Ever since I can remember dogs were a big part of the family! And that has never changed! As a pet owner (dog and hamsters) I know how important it is that our pets get the care and attention they need and that we are there when they need us! I would love to give your pet (and mine!) the attention they need when you have important things to do! :-) I work remotely so I have availability to do dog walks and drop in visits throughout the day and evenings. I like a good early start with Willow (my Shiba Inu) before starting my day. I love to spend time and socialising my Shiba with other pets (dogs and cats alike) whenever possible! She gets along with other dogs once comfortable and also happy to do the walks with just your dog if you prefer!

Marie came and fed our cats and cleaned their litter on time. She is very responsive in communication and punctual. Our girls are very shy and her approach was gentle with them - I think had we been away for longer our kitties would have interacted but they're just very shy.

Carol did an excellent job of visiting and feeding our kitties whilst we were away. We received daily photos and feedback on their well-being, which really set our minds at ease and even better, we came back to two well fed and well fussed moggies 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 thank you very much! When we go again we shall definitely book in with you 🙂

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep bond and understanding of their needs. From a young age, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed caring for and training dogs, attending dog training and agility classes twice a week since I was 11. Today, I’m the proud owner of two wonderful Newfoundlands, Bunny and Bear, who keep me busy with their exciting water rescue training. These experiences have given me invaluable, hands-on knowledge and a true passion for working with dogs of all kinds. But my love for animals doesn’t stop there! Over the years, I’ve also had the privilege of caring for a variety of other pets, including two cats—Indie and my gorgeous ragdoll, Beau—two Guinea pigs (Honey and Bee), two lionhead rabbits (Pumpkin and Jess), and even a Crested gecko named Manny. Each of these amazing animals has taught me so much about their unique care and needs, allowing me to develop a well-rounded understanding of animal care across different species. I currently have a part time job on Monday evenings, Tuesday day and Sunday evenings. However this is flexible and can be subject to change if required! Just let me know your needs and I will accommodate accordingly! When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, my priority is to ensure your furry (or scaly!) friends feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet and home with the utmost respect, following your instructions closely to maintain their routine and provide a stress-free environment. I prioritise safety by keeping a watchful eye on your pets, ensuring they are secure indoors or outdoors, and keeping hazardous items out of reach. Building trust is essential, and I take time to bond with your pets so they feel happy and at ease in my care. Whether it’s feeding, walking, cuddling, or playtime, I strive to keep your pets content and your home just as you left it. My goal is to provide a seamless experience so you can relax, knowing your pets and home are in safe hands.

About: Hi, I’m Millie - I grew up in a dog filled house where we often had three dogs at a time, ranging from puppies to senior animals, to small dogs to larger breeds. I’ve always been involved in their care and have experience of feeding, walking, training, and giving them lots of love and attention. I now live with my partner in our own home, and we don’t have any pets of our own (yet!). We both really miss having a furry friend and dog sitting is the perfect way to share our love for dogs whilst helping pet parents feel at ease when they’re away. I work as a Radiology Assistant and do 3 long days a week, with 4 days off. My partner works at home full time so there will always be someone at home. My partner, Olly, supports me with dog sitting and is more than happy to care for your pets whilst I am working long days. Both myself and my partner are very active, enjoy long walks and have a lot of time to give your pets plenty of attention and play time. I will always be transparent, ask permission, and communicate well. I will always treat your pet like my own and ensure they are well cared for and loved. We have an enclosed back garden so your pet will be safe having toilet breaks and play time outside. We do not live far from local parks and fields.

About: Always had animals from being so little, we had a golden Labrador when I was 11 and she was my baby. I now have a cat who I love to bits. Animals are just the best thing on earth! So Monday Tuesday Wednesday isn’t possible for me as I work 7-7 but the rest of the week I don’t work so I can fit around the cat/ dog perfect! So I have a huge garden with fencing around. I do have a cat but she’s really friendly with dogs and people, she can be with cats but that just depends how the other cat is around her.

Megan looked after my cat while I was away for a week. Absolutely cannot fault the service at all. I knew my girl was in good hands from the initial meet and greet. I was kept informed daily and sent photos and updates. Megan even went above and beyond when my girl had an upset tummy. Plenty of fusses and all her needs taken care of. Nothing was too much trouble. I'd 100% use Megan again in the future.

Mason was incredibly helpful, stepping in to take care of our cats on short notice while we dealt with a family emergency. He was very capable and gave us regular updates to let us know the cats were fine which was very important to us as we didn’t have the mental space to be worrying about them as well. Our cats are a little skittish, and he managed that just fine, making sure that they were well cared for.
