“Rebecca has been absolutely brilliant with Bella 🐈⬛. I can tell how quickly 🐈⬛ took to Rebecca by the updates and photos, which eased so much of the guilt of leaving her for the weekend. Couldn’t recommend Rebecca enough and will definitely be asking for help again in the future. ❤️😊🐈⬛”


“Kerenza was a great help taking care of our cat Sushi when we had to be away for the day while she was recovering from surgery with a feeding tube and medication. Her vet training meant that we could depend on her to administer the food and medication properly. It took so much of the stress out of having to be away for the day. I really appreciated Kerenza’s knowledge, reliability, and caring approach and highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs!”


“Emma is an amazing petsitter. Very good communication before and during the time she spent with our both dogs, sending us updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving the dogs with her. 100% recommended!”


About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my genuine love for pets and my hands on experience I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all ages from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I have a knack for training basic commands and tricks which helps keep pups engaged and happy plus I understand the unique needs of older dogs ensuring they get the special attention and care they deserve. I’m dedicated to creating a safe fun environment where every dog feels loved and comfortable I often look after my neighbours dogs while they work and this includes walking, and general taking care of the pups. I am easily adaptable to a dogs needs In my home I create a cozy and safe environment for pets. I have a designated garden with plenty of space to relax and explore and maintain a consistent routine for feeding walks and playtime to keep them comfortable. I also ensure they have access to freshwater at all times.

About: I have always had a passion for all animals since I was young - I currently have a pet corn snake called mr wiggles:) - I made it my aspiration to want to take care and help your pets! I have a qualification in a level 3 animal management course as well as currently in my 3rd year of a Bsc veterinary nursing degree. Being a soon-to-be qualified vet nurse means the world to me. I would like to share that passion through helping care for your animals as I understand they are family to us :) Starting with experience in grooming to having simple skills of bathing or clipping claws if needed. I have experience in the veterinary field so any medication required I'll be happy to administer. I have also worked in multiple boarding kennels where I provide care for various breeds of different ages. I understand and prioritise each dogs individual needs :) I am currently a vet nursing student doing a placement at medivet 4 days a week, however mondays & weekends I am free to take care of your loved one. pls note that my partner Jack will also be tagging along with me but I will be fully responsible for the care of your pet:) I live in a 3 storey house, however with no garden I can redeem that by enriching walks and safe spaces in Nottingham. I can drive so I am more than happy to care for your dog in the comfort of their home. I know how important it is to build trust due to my past experience working with owners. I hope to build that with you through regular updates and pictures on how your pooch ( or cat!) is doing. I am also very knowledgeable and have a high awareness for being neurodivergent, queer & special needs friendly and of all differences we may have x no question is a silly question!

About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for pets my entire life. From caring for my own alpacas and horses, to dogs, cats and hamsters. While I haven’t worked as a professional dog sitter before, I’ve been responsible for feeding, walking, grooming, and training family pets for over 15 years. I’m confident, attentive, and passionate about animal welfare, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m a full-time primary school teacher with a deep love for dogs and animals of all kinds. During school holidays, I have extra time to dedicate to dog walking and pet care—something I genuinely enjoy and find incredibly rewarding. Once term starts again, I’ll still be available for walks and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m reliable, nurturing, and used to managing busy schedules with care and attention—qualities that carry over beautifully into pet care. For dog walks, I always ensure your best friend is safe, happy, and well-exercised. I stick to familiar routes or follow your preferred walking instructions, keeping a close eye on their comfort and surroundings. I always use their preferred lead or harness, avoid unsafe areas, and tailor the pace to your dog’s needs—whether they love a brisk trot or a gentle stroll. For drop-in visits, I make sure your dog feels relaxed and cared for in their own home. I follow feeding routines, refresh water bowls, offer playtime or cuddles, and clean up any messes. I’m happy to send photo updates so you know your pet is content while you’re away

About: Trusted by 30+ owners. Cared for 50+ pets. Dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fishes and even a snake. Whether your pet is elderly, young, recovering from an injury or dealing with anxiety, I can provide the quality care needed to give you peace of mind. I've always had a soft spot for animals, but it wasnt until a pet sit for my cousin in 2022 that I decided to go all in on pet sitting as something to pursue alongside my studies. As I live right in the middle of Nottingham City, I have good access to the surrounding areas and am available at short notice. I have an Enchanced DBS certificate (highest clearance) available at request. The nature of my course means I can study anywhere with good wifi. Send me a request and I'll let you know promptly if I'm available. I have experience with young pups still potty training, elderly dogs and dogs recovering from injury. As I live in private accommodation I cannot dog sit in my home (Dog boarding).

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have looked after my families and friends dogs over the past 10-15 years. I’ve also helped to train and look after puppies and in very used to looking after senior dogs. I am a kind patient person and have a genuine love and passion for looking after animals. I work from home most days so I am very flexible when it comes to looking after dogs. I also have my own car so can drive to parks on my lunchbreak for walks etc. I don’t currently have any pets and the backyard has a brick wall and gate enclosing it and making it secure. I live with my partner who is also an avid dog lover and has experience with looking after dogs.

About: I have always loved dogs! Within my family we have always had dogs, to which I was and am so grateful for. I love taking care of dogs, seeing them smile by the simplest things like a long walk, brushes, kisses, food, etc! I am currently a second year student at Nottingham Trent Univeristy, studying English and History. I am home for the Summer so here to make sure all dogs have a lovely Summer too! We have a good space inside and outside of the house for animals to run around and be safe due to the secured and closed off fences surrounding.

“Thank you so much Ailish for a truly professional job with our dog Marshall today I cannot recommend her highly enough! Ailish stepped in last minute to look after Marshall after we were let down and she will definitely be our first port of call in the future !!! Did a meet and greet with us prior to looking after Marshall arrived on time and sent us some lovely photos of Marshal playing in the garden. Thank you so much we will definitely see you again.”



About: As an avid dog loved, and having had dogs all my life, I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry friends. I have extensive experience in caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. My approach to dog sitting is rooted in compassion and understanding, ensuring your pup feels safe, loved and engaged whilst you’re away. I currently work from home 5 days a week and love going on walks, so looking after your furry friends does not impact my routine. I have a fenced back garden, and no current dogs of my own so your dog will have my undivided attention and will be safe at all times.

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was 12 including Rottweilers and German Shepherds. Now living as a couple in West Bridgford, we miss having a dog to take on our ventures. My partner works from home and has flexible hours. She works in the fitness industry so is active through walks and runs. I work at a football club and also share the desire to be out on long walks with a furry friend. We do not have a garden and therefore, we do not feel it’s appropriate to dog sit within our home but happy to come to you!

Gary D.Star Sitter
“I can’t recommend Gary enough as a dog sitter! He has looked after my Patterdale Terrier, Miley, on several occasions, and she absolutely adores him. Gary has a natural way with dogs, combining kindness and patience with an excellent understanding of their needs. Miley always comes back happy, well-exercised, and relaxed after spending time with him. It’s clear he genuinely cares for the dogs in his care, and I always have peace of mind knowing she’s in such capable hands. Anyone lucky enough to have Gary as their dog sitter is in for a treat!”


shanaya n.
“After knowing Shanaya for over 3 years now I know she is a reliable, caring and hard worker and her love for animals NEVER goes a miss. We previously worked together in kennels and her highest quality is kindness and enthusiasm day to day! Such a happy and knowledgeable person to care for your dogs as she understand behavioural changes, knows how to play and have fun while also keeping your pets safe. I would 100% recommend Shanaya to look after your dogs because she gives her all through every day!”


Rosie J.
“I am Rosie's Father and can confirm that she has always had a true love for animals especially dogs and has demonstrated this by showing responsibility, caring, respect and affection for her them. Growing up she had many dogs ranging from Maltese terriers to Great Danes and everything in between. As a young girl she was brought up to be responsible for her pets and her routine consisted of looking after their needs before going to school and also first thing when she returned. I never needed to ask her to do this as she knew it was her priority, and undertook her tasks to the highest standards. When Rosie was at University studying to become a teacher she still continued to undertake her caring routine for her dogs and this remained for as long as they were here. As a Primary school teacher she has to be very organised, a good planner and very reliable combined with being a good example to small children through the values she demonstrates which include trust, respect honesty and patience. Her strong sense values combined with her love of dogs, I believe, make her ideal for this role and I'm confident that both Rosie and the dogs she cares for will absolutely love the experience. Paul J. JP”
