“Lucy is lovely, and I was very happy to leave Honey, our naughty tortie, at home with Lucy checking in. Lucy sent prompt detailed updates with a video and photos too. It was reassuring to know that Lucy was looking after Honey in our absence. I would definitely recommend Lucy, and have already booked again.”

“INCREDIBLE! Katherine has been the best cat sitter we have ever had. She even stayed longer than she should have everyday to make sure the kittens got enough time around humans / connection and play time. She sent us photos and videos everyday with updates and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Katherine! Would highly recommend!”

About: Free Meet and Greet with you and your pet. ~Provide fresh food and water daily. Also an excellent treat giver. ~Will clean bowls and litter trays as necessary. ~ Can administer oral medication ~Loves to play and gives amazing fusses. ~Will send daily updates. ~Very careful and respectful towards pets and their owners. I usually work visits/walking into before and after work. I sometimes work from home so can factor this in too. At the weekends my children like to come on walks too. I ensure pets are only in areas that are secure and agreed with the owners. When out walking I keep the dog on a lead, however I also use a "freedom field " on occasion for a safe of lead run.

18. Sheliz I.
About: I’ve taken care of and walked dogs for my neighbours and for family friends. I have fed them and played with them in their homes and taken them out on walks. I currently work full time at my family’s business but I have sunday off every week and another day during the week which changes. I’m looking for some extra money and I love dogs and have a lot of experience with them so would love to do some dog walking/sitting. I have an 8 year old Fox red labrador. She is very gentle and very obedient. She has had 1 litter of 6 puppies so i have experience looking after many dogs at once and from young ages. I have dog sat and dog walked for family friends before and have taken them in the garden, fed and played with them and walked them on leads.
