About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with 5 years of hands-on dog sitting experience. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, including English Cocker Spaniels, American Cocker Spaniels, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. As an adult, I’ve owned a miniature dachshund called Milo. Over the last few years I’ve regularly looked after dogs for friends and family, including dachshunds and a Shipoo (Shih Tzu/Poodle mix). I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels but I live in an apartment so larger dogs might not have the room they need for longer stays. I live alone in a secure owned apartment in central Manchester with a fully enclosed private astro-turfed roof terrace, so dogs have a safe outdoor space to relax and play. I work hybrid and have a flexible schedule so as long as I have a bit of notice I can work my office days around booking. With a bit more notice, I’m also available on weekends. I’ll keep you up to date through the day with pictures so you know your child is happy and safe. My apartment is on the border of Manchester and Salford with a number of small parks in very close proximity and Peel Park a 10 minute walk away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as I work hybrid role and have a flexible schedule, which means dogs get plenty of company, attention, toilet breaks, and walks throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m active myself, so regular walks and playtime are something I genuinely enjoy. I’m also flexible on weekends with notice, so I can adapt around a dog’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. I care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and settled from the moment they arrive. I’ll stick closely to their usual routine, including feeding times, walks, play, toilet breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner. My apartment is calm, clean, and secure, and I also have a fully enclosed private roof terrace with astro turf where dogs can safely get fresh air and relax. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel reassured while they’re away.
“Samantha looked after my Labrador, Shadow, for a long weekend and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me regularly updated with messages and photos, it was great to see how much fun Shadow was having. It was clear Shadow was well cared for, with plenty of walks, attention, and a genuinely happy environment. You can tell Samantha really cares about the dogs she looks after, and Shadow came back relaxed and content. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Samantha again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog minder.”
“I had Turbo stay with Tiago for 5 days and it was like sending my dog to an all-inclusive holiday! Tiago is more than Turbo's dogsitter he is Turbo's friend! Tiago showed great care for my dog by following all of the instructions, played with him and made him feel safe in a new environment. My dog didn't even cry when I handed him over to Tiago and I instantly felt convinced my dog was in good hands. There's not a single thing I wish Tiago did differently. I am going to book Tiago again for sure!”
“Valeria 👩🏻 and Johnny 🐶 are so friendly and nice! ☺️ Apartment location is convenient, and so clean. Puff had very good them with them, Valeria kept sending us images and messages for update, let us feel so safe and comfortable. Highly recommended, will let Puff stay with them again if we need. 🫶🏻”
“Loki had a wonderful time staying over with Liuliu and Mia. They were great about walking and feeding him on our usual schedule, and when I came to pick him up, he actually seemed reluctant to leave, haha. Thanks again, Liuliu!”
“We had an amazing 5-day stay with our dog, Inky! 🐾 Wing took such great care of him—making sure he got plenty of walks, constant attention, and lots of love. We really appreciated all the photos and videos, which kept us reassured the whole time. Inky looked so safe, happy, and relaxed during his stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended! 🌟”
“Chen and her boyfriend looked after our German Shepherd for a week after trialing a day and he was treated like an absolute king. I would highly recommend, I received daily messages and pictures and videos and was extremely pleased by their time, commitment and love for our Hunter. Thank you once again 😊”
About: Hello, We’re Laura and Tobias, and we would love the honour of caring for your pup as if they were our own. Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives, and we truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust when you’re away. We have a 4-year-old dachshund called Noodles, who is friendly but sassy. Because of Noodles size were especially suited to boarding smaller dogs or similar breeds, so everyone feels comfortable, safe, and able to play together happily. Your dog will be welcomed into our home and treated like part of the family with plenty of cuddles, attention, and playtime. We’ll make sure we stick to their usual routine as much as possible, so they feel relaxed and at ease while you’re away. Having Noodles means your dog will also have a companion for play and comfort, which is perfect for sociable pups who enjoy being around other dogs. We’d love to meet you and your dog to make sure it’s the perfect match. Feel free to get in touch with any questions! Myself and my fiancé Toby work from home full time. There will always be someone home with your dog. We do multiple walks per day and lots of garden/play time opportunities. I have a secure garden and your dog will be accompanied by my dachshund Noodles. Noodles is crate trained so I can accommodate this or we can discuss other sleeping arrangements to suit your pet
“Absolutely amazing, in every way! The care, concern, communication, flexibility, updates and pictures were all 5 star! Duffy came back so happy and well cared for. Thank you so much!”
“Eva and James were fantastic with our Westie Maggie. We were so grateful that they responded immediately to our short notice booking request. They provided regular photos, videos and updates helping us feel reassured as this was the first time we had used the service. Maggie clearly had a great few days and we would definitely use them again in the future.”
About: I recently moved home leaving my beloved family dog (border collie named Dennis) behind. It feels very strange without a dog in the home. I have dog sat many times before for family and friends dogs - I even road tripped with my brothers Jack Russel named Molly all the way to Italy! I work fully remote and I am in the house all day throughout the week. I am able to accommodate very regular toilet breaks and play time. I am very active and can even get a walk in during lunch time, so high energy breeds are suitable! I have social events during weekday evenings but usually no more than 2-3 hours at one time and I am never usually out past 22:30PM during the week. Weekends are usually less routine, sometimes I am out on a Friday or Saturday but very rarely both. I am also rarely out late on a Sunday but often have some plans during the day. This can often include long walks which I would be happy to include your dog. If you want weekend availability, I think this would be better on ad-hoc basis depending on what my plans are on a particular date. My rear garden is fenced and enclosed with a grass area. I am very flexible in what I can accommodate - your wish is my command! I am very understanding that you want your dog to be treated exactly as you want, so they are more than welcome to sit on furniture, beds, upstairs and downstairs, even car journeys! Like I say, your wish truly is my command. I absolute adore my dog and I truly love and respect all dogs of all kinds. I offer a safe, loving and fun environment whilst putting your pets safety and wellbeing as an absolute number 1 priority.
“We couldn’t recommend Alison and her family enough to take care of your fur babies 🐾 We recently went away and it was the first time leaving our Walter 🐾 with a pet sitter. We of course was nervous and apprehensive. But I can’t stress enough how incredible Alison was and how easy she made it. Throughout our time away Alison reassured us, sent us pupdates and it was so obvious from the photos that Walter was receiving the love and attention he would have gotten at home (if not more) it really did put our mind and ease and allowed us to relax and enjoy the holiday. Walter is on a raw food diet (if you know, you know) which is something I was worried about it being a lot for whoever looked after him but again, it was no problem for Alison and Walter was able to get the same breakfast he gets at home (if that’s something you’re worried about) I would definitely recommend Alison and we will definitely be booking her again for our next trip away!”
“We were quite nervous about leaving Daisy as she had never been looked after by anyone outside of our family before. We really needn't have worried because Andrew and Mati were absolutely fantastic with her. They took such great care of Daisy and kept us reassured while we were away and shared photos. When she became a little fussy with her eating, they were incredibly patient and took the time to try different approaches to encourage her, which worked really well. It was clear that they genuinely cared about her wellbeing and happiness. We came home to a happy, well-looked-after Daisy, and we wouldn't hesitate to leave her with Andrew and Mati again. Highly recommended!”
“Both were great, clearly love dogs and know what is needed to take care of a puppy properly! They did a couple of drop ins and had my puppy overnight, I got lots of updates and photos from them Would recommend!”
“Absolutely could not recommend demi & tayler enough they were amazing with my dog from start to finish. Plenty of pupdates through out his 11 night stay including pictures and videos they were able to meet all his needs including giving anti sickness meds for his travel home and his anti allergy meds as needed, he is raw fed and they were happy to do this as well as helping him along the way with his little "quirks" 😊 they have been brilliant from start to finish and wouldn't think twice about who to contact next time a dog sitter is needed.... thank you for everything guys you have been amazing 🥰”
“Hannah was absolutely fantastic with Luna she made her very comfortable as soon as she got there and kept me up to date over the weekend with lots of pics and videos. Can’ thank Hannah enough and couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Taco had a great time staying with Dylan and Ellie and came back very tired, which is always a sign of a fun stay! We received regular updates, along with plenty of photos and videos.”
“Graeme was amazing with Harley for the few days he stayed there. Harley had such an amazing time that he even cried when leaving! Will definitely reach out to him again whenever I’m away!”
“Sophie and Luke were amazing with our spaniel Mabel! They made her feel at home straight away, so we didn’t have any worries at all leaving her in their care, Most importantly Mabel had a great time with Lola their lovely spaniel, and was lovely and tired when she came home, and a tired dog is a happy dog . Thank you Sophie and Luke 😊”
“Shalina was fantastic! She and her partner were so warm, welcoming, responsive, and trustworthy. They took wonderful care of Jimmy while we were away for a couple of weeks. From our first meeting, Shalina showed great attention to detail regarding Jimmy's needs and quirky behaviour. She kept us in the loop with regular photos and messages. Jimmy loved her, and we could feel he was in great hands. We had total confidence in Shalina and wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend her!”

Zara was absolutely amazing. Our dog can have quite bad separation anxiety when she’s away from home but Zara was very understanding and Marge was very settled by the end of her stay. I also had a problem with my flights being rescheduled, meaning I had to book an additional night’s stay at very short notice, and Zara was very flexible with this which took the stress out of everything. All round a very lovely lady and will be booking again if needed!
Highly recommend!!! This is the first time we have ever left the boys with a sitter so my anxiety was everywhere, but it was instantly at peace when we turned up. Ellie, I can’t thank you enough for looking after my babies. They have come back happy and tired, happy to say Loki and Leo have found their permanent sitter 🥰🥰🥰
Megan and her husband were amazing with Abloh. We felt very comfortable with the idea of leaving him from our introduction meeting and knew he would be in safe hands. He came home as happy and lively as we had left him and we felt reassured by the regular updates and great communication. I would highly recommend these two as your dog will be loved and their dog Woody was a great little companion for Abloh so we knew he would feel very at ease.
Tiago was an amazing dog sitter. I left my schnoodle Juno with him while I was away for a few days. He was super communicative and took a huge amount of care in making sure she was fed, walked and played with properly. She was clearly relaxed and happy with him. I'd leave her with Tiago again in an instant!
Aysha and Mike absolutely spoilt Simba rotten! The videos and updates I had were the best and put me at ease to know he was being cared for in the best possible way. They even gave him new toys and treats whilst in their care, he had 5* care and I can’t wait to book him in again for his next adventure! The best pet sitters ever, thankyou so much xx
Samantha and her partner were absolutely amazing with our dog, Frank. Without a doubt, they are the best dog sitters we’ve ever had. Samantha was fantastic at keeping us in the loop throughout, sending regular updates and plenty of photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. But the thing that stood out most was how genuinely happy Frank was with them. You could see it in every picture and update, and how relaxed and comfortable he was is a real testament to how well they looked after him. It’s clear they treated him like one of their own, and we couldn’t have asked for more. We will absolutely be using Samantha again in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.
Suvi and Kawal were fantastic as always. I can always leave Cookie with them and know she's having a great time and is treated like family. When I drop Cookie off she gets excited as soon as she realises, and when I go to pick Cookie up she always tries to stay longer!
Wilbur was really happy staying with Shannon and Ryan, we could tell as soon as he arrived that he was at ease and settled quickly. Shannon sent regular updates, which was great and we could see how happy he was. We also really appreciated them taking him for a long walk before we picked him up so he was in snooze mode as soon as we got home!
We were quite nervous about leaving Daisy as she had never been looked after by anyone outside of our family before. We really needn't have worried because Andrew and Mati were absolutely fantastic with her. They took such great care of Daisy and kept us reassured while we were away and shared photos. When she became a little fussy with her eating, they were incredibly patient and took the time to try different approaches to encourage her, which worked really well. It was clear that they genuinely cared about her wellbeing and happiness. We came home to a happy, well-looked-after Daisy, and we wouldn't hesitate to leave her with Andrew and Mati again. Highly recommended!
Alison and her lovely family were impeccable. Their contact and keeping us up to date with our two dogs Archie and George was amazing- could not fault her! She sent photos, updates describing how they were getting on, on a daily basis and made us feel constantly at ease as this was was our first time using Rover after having bad experiences with kennels. As we were extremely worried her constant reassurance was absolutely fantastic!! She was amazing trying to cater to our dogs needs and making sure they were settled and she demonstrated that she really cared about making the dogs try feel at home. Absolutely amazing from start to finish! A* service- a true professional.
