Pet Sitting in Ryedale

“When we met Louise we knew she would be a great fit for looking after our cat. Super friendly, warm and passionate about animals. We felt at ease knowing she would be giving lots of affection and playtime to our little one when we were away and we weren’t disappointed. We’ve booked her in for a house sit in the summer too! Many thanks 🙏”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and was already walking, feeding and caring for them from around 9–10 years old, so I count that as part of my experience alongside what I do now professionally. Ive naturally become the person people rely on when they need help with their pets. I now run my own pet care business, so this is something I do properly, not just casually. I focus on keeping pets in their usual routine and environment so they feel as settled and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’m fully insured, DBS checked, and currently working towards further professional qualifications, as well as preparing to offer licensed boarding. I’m calm, patient and used to different personalities — whether that’s energetic dogs or more nervous ones — and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, cuddles and reassurance while they’re with me. I treat them like they’re my own and aim to keep everything as easy and stress-free as possible. References are always available if you’d like them. I structure my days around the pets I’m caring for, so they’re never just “fit in.” I’m flexible with mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I keep my routine light so I can give plenty of time, attention, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I’ll always work around your dog’s usual routine so everything feels familiar and calm for them 🩶 I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, and all their little quirks, so I can care for them properly and keep things calm and consistent. I stay attentive, notice small changes, and make sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away. You’ll always get clear updates, so you know they’re happy and well cared for 🩶

About: Hi! I’m Daisy and I have had my own pet care business for several years, pausing it to go back to university. I have a lot of spare time alongside my studies so would like to fill it with doing what I love and miss from having my business. I have extensive experience of all kinds of breeds and temperaments and great references. I have a background in veterinary care and trained veterinary emergency care. Happy to accommodate all pet personalities and especially experienced with reactive dogs. I’m very flexible and free most days and times. Just give me a message to discuss availability. Happy to work adhoc or more of a regular service. I’m experienced with pets of varying temperaments, especially reactive dogs due to working a lot with rescues. I appreciate everyone’s pets have their own personalities so happy to work with them the way you feel is best.

About: I’ve been surrounded by cats and dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. At home, I share my days with my 11 year old Shih Tzu–Poodle mix, who keeps me smiling and reminds me how special the bond with our pets really is. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, giving you peace of mind that your furry friend is safe in my care. With experience ranging from playful puppies to gentle senior pets, I bring patience, love, and a bubbly, positive energy to every walk and visit. I work part-time in care, so I’ve got plenty of flexibility to fit in walks and pet sits around your schedule. Whether it’s a quick stroll, some playtime, or keeping your pets company while you’re out, I’m happy to make it work for you and your furry friends. When looking after pets in their own home, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved in their familiar surroundings. I’ll stick to their usual routine, give them lots of cuddles, playtime, and walks, and keep everything as stress free as possible just like they’re with family.

About: Reliable, experienced, professional, and mad about dog walking. If you want to excite your dogs day while you are out at work or away for the day, then I aim to get their tail wagging by going for exciting, high enrichment walks on some brilliant trails in and around malton area. I currently work 4 days per week, but have time to tend to your pets before and after work, I have every weekend off and I am also available Thursdays (all day). I am currently in the mits of setting up my own business so I will be reducing my hours. I have a dog friendly home environment, I have a large garden which is completely secured with a 6 foot wooden fence, I have accessible water and food bowels, laminate flooring which makes accidents easy to clean. My home is also over looking a field and a stone through away from some amazing trails which makes it easy to exercise the dog while they stay with me.

About: I have experience working with a variety of different dogs, from calm and relaxed to energetic or nervous. My family dog use to enjoy running freely and playing with other dogs, sadly due to an attack he got very nervous and protective. I understand some dogs get nervous and want to go after others, working with him, I was able to improve his behaviour and get him more comfortable around dogs. I have also taken care of a very energetic working dog. She never stopped. Thankfully I was able to create a nice calming environment, including a very long tiring walk, to get her to settle down and not be worked up all the time. I know no two dogs are the same and each dog needs their care tailored to them. I work in an office Monday-Friday with a shorter day on Fridays, leaving around 13.30. Currently having no set plans on weekends. I am able to do walks before work and a longer one after work, or a very long walk on the weekends. I have got a fully fenced garden, and a large open area just across the street. I enjoy playing with the dogs and their toys and letting them relax if they want some alone time.

“Quick response to our request and provided a great service”

About: I absolutely adore dogs, big and small. I have looked after and walked many, from a Burnese mountain dog to a spaniel puppy. I am 27, live in a small village with an enclosed garden and I am surrounded by gorgeous countryside that is perfect for walking adventures. I have my own dog, a female 1.5 year old golden retriever who is one big friendly ball of fur who loves everyone and everything. I have a passion for dog training and i am relishing in training my golden. I have a selection of lone lines, treats, leads, toys and cuddles that I am happy to share with any other furry friends. Dogs for me will always come first, they are part of the family. As such, dogs are allowed everywhere in my house, including the sofa! However, should anyone need some quiet time or a break we do have a baby gate that shuts off the upstairs. I have walked a gorgeous bouncy black lab throughout this past years and I looked after and walked dogs throughout my second and third year of university and had a range of regular and new clients. I’m honest and reliable and will work my best around any schedule you have. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to pop me a message. Thank you for reading! I currently work mostly from home with a relatively flexible schedule that means plenty of time for walks and cuddles. I will always keep my diary up to date with availability but any questions please do not hesitate to get in touch! I have an enclosed garden for dogs to play and run around in. I also have a dog myself that will keep your dog company and will happily be a play mate! If needed though I can easily create separate spaces for dogs that need a quiet moment and I even have a stair gate so that your dog can have the run of downstairs. When out on walks for the safety of your dog and your piece of mind I will always use a lead or a long line, I promise this does not compromise on the adventures or fun had on walks. I have a range of long lines that I am happy to use if clients do not own one. I am also happy to send regular pictures and videos of your furry friend whilst on their adventure so you can continue your day with the knowledge that they are safe and happy.

About: I've been looking after family and friends pets for around 10 years. Everything from house rabbits to cats and dogs. I'm experienced in dealing with both puppies and senior dogs, including medication administration, having looked after two senior English pointers who were both on various medications. I've just returned from travelling South East Asia, and I'm looking to pet sit alongside my yoga teacher training course. I'm studying mainly from home so I'm available from 6am until 4pm during the week . I normally walk everyday too so a furry companion for my walks would be great! I'll care for your pet with compassion and patience. Just let me know what/ how they enjoy to spend their day and thats what i'll do. We also have a family dog Max who lives with my parents, so I understand how they are part of the family, and will take care of your pet as if they were my own.

About: I have been a petsiitter, walker, companion for many years. I love all fur babies, recently looked after chickens too. I have a car, can work in York and surrounding areas. Will consider further afield but a minimum of one continous week. Always recommend a meetup before a booking for a cuppa and maybe a biscuit 😉 Recently retired. As i am an animal lover and experienced pet sitter for cats, dogs, chickens i can't think of a better way to spend my time. I cannot look after pets in my own home sadly. I can only offer pet sitting, Vet visits, Pop-ins for all fur babies, chickens, feeding, comforting, walking. Sadly I cannot look after reactive dogs because of past experience.

About: I’ve solely taken care of my step dads husky on the weekend for the past four years including walks, feeding, baths and overnight stays☺️ I have 2 chihuahuas currently at home, but as a uni student i am missing my furry babies and would be honoured to spend time with your loved animals! i have been around animals my entire life, i can handle both large and small breads. i can provide any routine that your dog needs and accommodate to all their needs and preferences! i would love to help out in any way :) im currently on a 0 hour contract and im lucky to get one shift a month, im a uni student but i have 4 days free a week (including the weekend) i can try my best to fit around your schedule just pop me a message! My garden is surrounded by high stone walls so there is absolutely no way out as the door is padlocked. I have a very spacious 3 story house so there’s plenty of room to play or relax🤗 I will gladly take any of your furry friends on walks as i live near a park with field space! i will respect your home as if its my own and provide comfort for your furry loved ones whilst you’re away :)

About: Dog walker/sitter, initially for friends to cover for holidays and more recently through volunteering as a dog walker/sitter jointly with my husband, through online websites. Pet care will fit into my daily routine as part of my family. I have spare time to easily fit around your pet, offering plenty of love, care and attention around your pets needs. Your pet will be cared for within my own home following your pets patterns of behaviour. I follow your pets nutrition needs and ensure your pet is regularly taken for long walks local and in the countryside, no matter what the weather. Regular cleansing/bathing. Plenty of love, cuddles and treats for good behaviour.

“Holly has been great. Played and fed Sam each time today. Very good with him. Sent me photos etc all good .”

About: I got my dog, Ruby, when I was 8. She has been my rock. I absolutely love taking care, feeding and walking her as well as giving all the affection and fuss a dog needs! I am relied on by family, friends and neighbours to do these tasks for their dogs in the past, but I am glad to and enjoy it as I have such a soft spot for all dogs! I am currently a university student, who is only in university 2 days a week. Due to this I have a lot of time free to look after your pup. I live 2.5hrs away from home and my dog Ruby, I miss her and the comfort a dog brings. In my spare time I love being active especially love walks around the river trent… so why not bring a furry friend with me! As I am currently in student housing, I would prefer to look after a dog within the owners home but as we do have a gated garden and a clean safe home, I am more than happy to accommodate at my home if needed.

About: I have grown up with a variety of animals my entire life, all varying in ages and sizes. I currently provide pet sitting and walking in addition to my current full time job for friends and family. This includes looking after my sister’s 10 month old puppy and training where possible. I am currently working full time Monday to Friday in a college. With my weekends free, I work from home on Mondays and Fridays which allow me to pet sit on these days. With my job I sometimes do overtime which allows me to book off additional days for pet sitting should I need to. I prefer looking after pets in the pet owners home as I believe pets deserve to feel at home and safe, what safer space is there for them than a space they live in. I will provide the upmost care and respect in your home, I am also DBS checked

“Helaina did two 30 minute visits to look after my Ruby. Ruby seemed to really warm to Helaina and seemed as though she had a good time. Ruby is an anxious puppy and Helaina really helped her come out of her shell a bit 😊 would definitely use Helaina again!”

About: I have been around animals all my life, having cats, rabbits and a horse as pets in my childhood. I have gained experience of pet sitting over the last three years with cats, dogs, fish and ferrets. I love meeting new animals. I currently work part time so I have lots of availability for pet sitting around this. I do early morning and late visits on work days and have several full days free each week. I will care for you home and your pet whilst you are away. I am happy to look after plants as well. I will follow the instructions provided by yourself.

About: Ive had pets since I was 6 years old and looked after family friends dogs. Love seeing dogs happy by playing and walking and having fun I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play and walk your dog. I have very flexible hours and can work around timings I have a big fenced garden and have a quite room if the dogs needs it and wants space. There is a lot of room to play

About: I have a unique energetic approach to pet care. (only out calls) Pets naturally love my energy. I have been a teacher for 5 years in total and parents always used to ask me how i was able to get their childs respect and attention in class! I have a unique healing energy that i can make use of at your request. I can interact with your pets history and karmic contracts and relationships, this is an extra service. Pets and children can even pick up owners hidden stresses and strains, they are designed to take on / ground energies and can get overwhelmed. This has health consequences that owners/parents are not aware of, which I will be able to explain. I've looked after houses and pets and children before, mostly for friends, and have an affinity with most animals, however i'm still gaining experience. When i stay in a property that's not my own i do feel uncomfortable enough to have respect for the house and the household items. I would probably leave it cleaner than when i came in. The home energy might be transformed as my energy often harmonises the surroundings as i also work with land and property healing. If you plan on ghosting me at any point without reason - please do not contact me in the first place - good communication and manors is a strict boundary I take seriously. I'm working 3 days a week with a friend in Yorkshire and have the rest of my time free to heal land and pets and people ... which is basically my second income. What better place to meet passionate pet owners where my services can truly come to light. I only do pet sitting and can't offer any accomodation at my house as i'm lodging. however I know how to look after pets and command attention when needed. There should be no problems with knowing who is boss and commanding the space with love.
