“It's ok they do make mess at times, Teddy had a few markies this morning as I did try and feed them . But, Donald nicked his food, we have been to the vets about his behaviour again and waiting for a specialist. He has gone back to bulling and nicking teddy's food, so we are concerned. And, have been told to separate them when feeding but Ted won't eat when we do that, so we are in a no win situation. Just give him treats if he doesn't eat, if it persists we may have to consider rehousing Donald. Great job,thanks for doing your best.”

About: Hello, I'm Katie, an experienced pawrent, dog walker and dog boarder. In 2020, I ended my dog walking/boarding business and focused on my two whippet boys who became nervous around people and other dogs in their old age. After losing my boys recently, I am looking for good boys and girls to spoil with lots of love. I've always been a dog lover and the house seems very empty at the moment, I'm hoping to offer the home comforts that kennels don't generally provide. I hope to be a home from home for your pup so you can relax on holiday knowing your he or she is well cared for. I'm working part time hours at the moment and hope to work the dog walking and sitting around my time off. There may be periods of between 2-4 hours that the animals are alone on my working days. I live on a very quiet street, and our front has a large driveway but isnt secured with a fence. The rear garden is completely secure with stone and wooden fencing.

About: I have been a pet owner since I was 7 and have been trusted by friends and family ti care for their pets involving helping a friend train their dogs to not pull on their leads and react calmly on walks I am currently unemployed and hoping to fill my current free time with dog walking and pet sitting, i am ultimately available any day any time currently I will care for your pets with upmost safety in your home, and will follow house rules accordingly to make sure nothing ever goes wrong.

“Absolutely Great! It's the first time i used this kind of thing and wasnt sure how it goes. Oliver was very friendly and patient and explained everything in detail. He constantly kept in touch and even got the most antisocial cat i know to befriend him! Legend! I fully recommend him and will be reaching out again”


About: I have a 2yr old Cavalier who was more than testing in the puppy stage, but is the most friendly, well behaved little girl who loves dogs of all shapes and sizes, even our family's Leonburger and Alaskan Malamute! I have owned spaniels my whole life and previously did 'Borrow My Doggy' boarding. I work from home most of the week with a flexible job so have lots of time to get out in the local parks and play at home. I have a walled garden and a very friendly small dog who is spayed and loves all other dogs. I have capacity to crate dogs overnight if that the preferred sleeping arrangement otherwise happy to let dog on furniture etc - whatever your pup needs to feel safe and loved :)

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience caring for pets with special needs—especially a senior dog with a heart condition. I understand how important gentle, attentive care is for pets who require extra love and patience. I truly enjoy spending time with both dogs and cats, building trust through calm, caring interactions. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or quiet companionship, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m available on weekday afternoons after 4 PM and throughout weekends, which gives me plenty of time to give your pet the attention and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to be there when you can’t be. I offer in-home pet care and am happy to drive to your location to care for your cat or dog. I make sure your pets feel comfortable in their own space by giving them gentle attention, fresh food and water, and keeping their routines as consistent as possible. I also take dogs out for walks to make sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I treat every pet like they’re part of my family.

About: I have many years experience with dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes. I deal with working dogs, dogs with issues and pet dogs alike, everyone is welcome! During a stay with me your dog will be loved like my own, and any of their current training/structure will be maintained throughout their stay! Please note, this does not include additional training, beyond maintenance of what you’ve already done with your dog! I am usually home the majority of the day, only taking short trips out as and when needed, like taking my son to nursery etc. Dogs that stay with me will ideally need to be crate trained, this would just mainly be for overnight. I will keep to their current routines as much as possible, and any current training will be maintained in the home and on walks. If they are good with dogs they may get chance to mix with some of my dogs, and if not that’s also fine!

About: I’ve looked after dogs for many years, they are everything, looking after your fur babies and treating them like there my own!

About: Hi! I’m Zara, and caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — from childhood through to today. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs, and I truly understand how much love, patience, and attention they deserve. My experience includes: • 🐶 Senior dog care – I grew up with a gentle, elderly Golden Retriever, so I’m familiar with the extra support and calm routine older dogs need. • 🐕 High-energy & timid breeds – I currently help care for our beautiful Hungarian Vizsla rescue, Serbi, who came to us frightened and unsure. In just a few months, he’s blossomed into a playful, affectionate companion, and I’ve loved being part of that journey. • 🐩 Small breed care – I’ve spent the last 13+ years looking after my auntie’s Cocker Spaniels, my dad’s Cavachon (for 4 years), and now my own Cavachon, Benji, who’s 2 years and 3 months old.

I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them loving, reliable care tailored to their unique personality and routine. Whether your pup is playful, shy, senior, or just in need of some extra TLC, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home.

I have full access to my own car with lots of room to transport the doggos to and from walks safely with doggy seat belts. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I offer a loving, secure home environment where your pup will feel like part of the family. I live in a fully secured home that’s dog-friendly, calm, and perfect for both playtime and relaxation. Your dog will also have the company of my two well-behaved, friendly dogs: Benji, my gentle 2-year-old Cavachon, and Serbi, our sweet Hungarian Vizsla rescue. Both are incredibly social and love the company of other dogs, and equally respect other dogs space also. Benji has grown up around his cousins — including Rufus the Vizsla, Jasper the Cavachon, and Biscuit the Cockerpoo — so he’s used to making new doggy friends and loves having playmates around. Serbi has mirrored Benji’s social nature since joining our furry crew and would love the company of some more doggos! Whether your pup is high-energy or a bit more reserved, I always provide a safe, supervised space where they can feel secure and loved. I monitor all interactions closely to ensure everyone gets along well, and I give each dog plenty of individual attention.
