“Hannah did the best job that she could've with our very timid cat. She was happy to do a meetup in advance of the booking which was very useful. Hannah arrived on time for the bookings and was happy to follow the instructions we left and gave updates on Evie. Would book again if we go away!”

About: I've grown up around dogs all my life and they've always been part of my family. While I haven't owned a dog myself as an adult, I regularly care for my sister's dog, both in her home and in my own flat, so I'm comfortable with day-to-day routines, walks, feeding, playtime and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I work remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for pets. This means I can accommodate daytime walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules and toilet breaks, rather than being limited to mornings and evenings. For dogs boarding with me, they will have company for most of the day and won't be left alone for long periods. I can provide regular walks, playtime and attention alongside maintaining their usual routine. I'm also available for house sitting and can work remotely from your home, allowing me to spend more time with your pet and minimize disruption to their normal environment and schedule. Your pet's safety, comfort and wellbeing are my top priorities. I live in a first-floor flat in a quiet area and take care to provide a calm and safe environment for any dog in my care. Although I do not have a garden, I live next to a canal, with plenty of nearby green space and walking routes, making it easy to provide regular exercise, enrichment and outdoor time throughout the day. As I work remotely, I am able to keep a close eye on pets in my care and ensure they receive plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I will always follow your instructions carefully to help them feel settled, happy and secure while you're away. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind that your pet is being well looked after.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with two dogs in my family home, and later became a cat mum myself. I have been raising my cat since she was a 3-month-old kitten, and she is now over 3 years old. Living closely with a cat every day has helped me understand how important patience, gentleness, and consistency are. I’m experienced with: * Feeding & fresh water routines * Litter cleaning * Playtime & companionship * Basic grooming and care * Sending regular photo and video updates to owners I’m a responsible, clean, and non-smoking person who will treat your pets as if they were my own. My goal is not only to look after them safely, but also to make sure they feel loved and comfortable while you are away. Hoping to Be Someone You Can Trust * Gentle and patient personality * Real experience raising a cat from kittenhood * Comfortable with shy and sensitive cats/dogs * Responsible and detail-oriented * Regular updates with photos/videos * Thoughtful home care support including plant watering, bringing in mail/parcels and light tidying during visits. I’d truly appreciate the chance to help care for your pet, and I’ll always do my best to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and well cared for. My schedule is flexible from Monday to Saturday, and I’m available between 11:00am and 7:00pm for visits and pet care services. I may also be available on Sundays for urgent requests upon discussion. I always treat a pet owner’s home with the same care and respect as I would my own. I make sure the space stays clean, safe, and secure during every visit. I’m careful with feeding areas, litter cleaning, and any household routines requested by the owner. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, relaxed, and have peace of mind during the entire experience.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats since I was little and have been around animals through every stage of their life - from puppies and kittens to senior animals. More recently I have experience pet sitting and walking dogs while their owners are away. I have experience with a wide range of dogs from labradors, to terriers to spaniels. I love the outdoors and exploring new places with fury friends! I currently work from home most days so will be around to drop in or walk dogs before work, during lunch breaks or in the evenings during the week. I am flexible on the weekends to suit your needs. I can offer a free meet and greet prior to the service to get to know you, the owner, your pets and your home to ensure I understand and can meet your pets needs. I can send updates to let you know your pet is well cared for.

About: I have over 15 years of personal experience caring for cats, from growing up with my family’s 12-year-old senior cat to co-owning a cat for 4 years. I truly understand feline behavior, boundaries, and how to make them feel safe. I've even successfully trained cats to walk on a leash and play treat-guessing games! I am a regular, trusted cat sitter for my friends' pets, and I recently completed a wonderful month-long boarding stay for a cat at my place. I live on my own in a large, quiet house with a big garden, making it a peaceful, stress-free environment for your pets. I have a lot of love to give and plenty of free time right now to focus entirely on your furry friends, whether they stay at my home or I visit yours. While cats are my specialty, I am also very open to hosting or visiting calm, friendly dogs to expand my care experience! I work completely from home, which means my schedule is highly flexible and I am around all day. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods. My daily routine revolves around providing consistent companionship, sticking strictly to your feeding and medication schedules, and building in plenty of dedicated time for play, grooming, and mental stimulation (or leash walks if they are trained for it!). Because I have a lot of free time right now, your pet will truly be my top priority. In My Home: I live alone in a large, quiet house with a big, secure garden, offering a peaceful environment free from the stress of children or other resident pets. Before any stay, I meticulously pet-proof the space. Your pet will have full freedom to roam, explore, and find their favorite cozy spots. I am extremely mindful of open doors and windows to ensure absolute safety. In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and secure. During drop-in visits, I focus entirely on making your pet feel safe and loved while you are away. Communication: Trust is everything to me. I will send you daily updates, photos, and videos so you can see exactly how much fun and love your furry friend is getting!

About: I am a reliable, caring, and passionate dog carer who loves spending time with animals. I provide safe and enjoyable dog walks tailored to each dog's needs, helping them stay active, happy, and healthy. I also offer drop-in visits, where I can feed your dog, refresh their water, provide companionship, play with them, and ensure they are comfortable while you're away. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine as I have my own cats at home. I make time each day for feeding, cleaning, exercise, and spending quality time with my animals to ensure they are happy and comfortable. I am organised and reliable, so I can easily fit pet care visits, walks, and check-ins into my weekly schedule while giving each pet the attention and care they need :) I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding them on schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter trays or living areas, giving them plenty of attention and playtime, and ensuring they get any exercise they need. In a pet owner's home, I respect their instructions and keep them updated on how their pet is doing. My priority is always making sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away!

About: Hi my names Izzy, and I love spending time with both cats and dogs! I’m 26 years old and currently working as a resident doctor in Nottingham. I recently moved to here, a few months ago from home, and I’m really missing my family labrador called Clover. So I thought Rover would be a good way to have fun spending time with pets and generate some extra income. I’m very active, I love walking in nature and going on jogs. I used to take clover on runs, as well as walks with me in the park- so if your dog is very active, I can definitely do this! I can accommodate any activity level- from short walks around the block, to running over 10km with your pet. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have had 3 labradors as family pets. I have had experience pet sitting other dog breeds too, such as my uncles Great Dane- Lily and Chihuahua- Titan. I have also looked after my neighbours rabbits in the past while they were on holiday! I love cats and would be very happy to look after them aswell. My boyfriend has 3 black cats (Plum, Pear and Acorn) and I’ve looked after them frequently for him so I’m quite familiar with their company. I also volunteered at a cat rescue shelter for 6 months when I was 17, as I thought I wanted to be a vet (before deciding to become a doctor). I live in a quiet and spacious apartment complex that is pet friendly. I would be open to having mild tempered pets stay at my apartment for day care, but would want to get to know them first before considering this. I have no allergeries to dogs and cats either. As I would be doing this for my own enjoyment and fulfillment on top of my day job so I’m flexible on cost and cancellation. My work schedule is variable, but I do have my rota for the next four months so would be able to plan in advance for bookings. I drive so can easily reach most surrounding areas in Nottingham. I will charge a small fee for petrol depending on commute length. I’ve put my experience on here as 1 year, as I’ve never officially been employed as a pet sitter before. However including time looking after my own/ friends pets recreationally- I have 10+ years experience. Feel free to reach out any time, I look forward to hearing from you. I’m currently working full time as a resident doctor, so have quite a full schedule during the week. I’m off most weekends for the next four months (except a few but I can let you know which if you message me) and would love to look after your pet then. I work mostly normal days which are only 8 hours and finish at 5pm. So if you require pet care during a week day after 5, I can absolutely help with this! However, I do also have a mixture of long days and nights (12-13 hours each) as well. So will be unable to provide pet care during those shifts when I’m on call. I have a 4 seater car so can commute to you, to either pick up your pet, or stay to look after them. I am open to looking after them/ entertaining them in which ever way you would want/ the pets would like. Duties include: feeding them, giving them lots of fuss and attention, playing with them using pet toys/ games, taking them outside for fresh air, on walks or runs if they are energetic, relaxing and proving them company, dealing with their toileting+ tidying up after them. I would also take them to any vet visits they may need if necessary. I live in a one bedroom flat in Nottingham city centre that is quite spacious and pet friendly, however it does not have a garden or easily accessible green space. In terms of boarding your pet at my flat, I would consider it on a case by case basis, after I have met them because it definitely would not be big enough for a very active large dog. I would prefer having mild tempered cats or smaller mild tempered dogs stay at my flat for short stays. I would be very happy to look after all pets for walks/ runs outside, drop in visits for feeding or providing them company, or looking after pets during the day at your home while you are away. I would also be happy to take them out for the day/ a few hours to surrounding parks/ nature reserves. I can send you picture updates throughout the day or any other communication you would like. I would not consider overnight boarding at a pet owners home though.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs from a young age, love long walks, short strolls and feel confident looking after your pooch. Easy friendly and reliable. Looked after family dogs including: walking, boarding at own home, medication sneakily given in food and more. Happy to try and accommodate to specific needs where possible I’m starting shift work where I will be available mid week days. My partner Liam works from home every Tuesday and we are free over the weekends to look after your pet I live in a first floor flat locked entrance corridordoor. Flat with a balcony looking onto a green line where I can easily take your dog for a stroll or toilet break in less than a minute. Flat has closed doors to each room so can adapt pet access to needs

“Thank you so much for caring for my trio of cats and their myriad personalities!! I felt totally reassured that they were in very good hands ❤️”

“Sarah is super calm and relaxed, our rescue dog Hazel is a bit anxious around new people but Sarah put her at ease and looked after her for us with plenty of updates and photos. Thanks so much Sarah! xx”

About: I’m at my happiest surrounded by dogs! I have an 8 yr old Cavapoo and have been looking after friends & families dogs for years. I work from home part of the week (days can vary) and have evenings and weekends available too for day care, walks and overnight stays. I have a safe and fully enclosed fenced garden allowing for plenty of play breaks & close to some lovely walks on my doorstep perfect for sniffing & smelling!.

“As before Andreia has looked after our cats molly and ralph. She has again done an excellent job. The cats are safe and well and happy on our return. Excellent service ”
