7. Connor S.
About: I've been looking after dogs from the age of 12 when I would walk and feed family/friends pets. I also had work experience in a doggy daycare centre (which was very fun). Because of this I've managed to spend time with loads of different breeds from puppies to older dogs. I've never done needles but I do have experience with medication too. I currently look after people's pets as my main job role. I have a couple walks every morning, the rest of my jobs are usually 0 hours contracts so are on my terms. I have a fenced garden and a staffie who basically just does what he wants. Your pets would be able to be around me all day and roam the garden all they want.
8. Kim S.
“I couldn't be more pleased with Kim. Alfie is a very nervous, fiesty, Jack Russell but Kim was brilliant with him, slowly winning his trust in a very calm way. They are now the best of friends! I will definitely be booking Kim again to dog and house sit, I can highly recommend her, thank you Kim! ?”
9. Tahra A.
About: I adore dogs and have a dog free house, having lost my beloved senior Staffy in 2023. I am very experienced with dogs with medical needs, senior dogs and a variety of breeds. I know how anxiety inducing it is when your beloved family member has to stay at home when you go on holiday or away for whatever reason, and can give your dog the love and care they need while you are away. I work from home on the computer and live next door to Sandwell Valley country park, so can offer 24 hour care to your dog. Walks are mornings before midday and/or evenings after 4pm, and access to the garden is at anytime. Walks can be in the quiet farmlands or the more lively park, depending on your dogs needs and preferences. The house is dog friendly and secure. The garden is completely fenced off with a 7 foot solid fence.

11. Mariarosaria B.
About: I grew up on a farm with all types of animals. I have been around dogs & cats all my life. We had two cats & two dogs on the farm at all times as well as chickens, cows, horses you name it! I was responsible for taking care of them all from a young age and have a whole life’s experience with animals ESPECIALLY dogs and cats! I have a cat of my own her name is Francesca, 3 years old and a calico. She’s the calmest cat ever but very boujee because I do spoil her rotten. I buy her fresh organic fish, seafood & meat and I don’t mind sharing some with your kitty if you will allow it. I love her to bits and I promise to love & take care of your pet like my own. My availability is very flexible so free to book me. Let’s make it happen! 😁🐈⬛ 🐩 I work from home so fitting your kitties/doggies into my schedule won’t be a problem! I can work any day anytime Monday-Sunday and pick up your cat at anytime as I drive Cat Boarding: I live in a very secure 3rd floor apartment with 2 bedrooms and a balcony. We can keep your kitty in a separate room in the apartment or we can let her roam free. If you’d like the cat to go out on the balcony I will be with her/ him at all times for safety reasons. In terms of food I feed my cat the organic fresh meat & fish/ seafood & gourmet natures creations, gravy soups, webbox lick-e-lix etc most of what I give my cat is fish based however. I can either give you a quote and purchase the same for your kitty or you can leave your preferred food with me to give to them. The litter I use is natural & rocky. If you’d like a specific type/ brand for your cat that’s no problem! Just please bring some with you. Dog walking: The more information the better! Let me know what your dog likes and dislikes. His/ her habits and what environments they thrive in & which ones not so much. I’m an experienced dog walker and will therefore cater our walks depending on your dog needs. Also, I will never let them out of my sight, they’re safe with me!

About: Growing up, my family was definitely what you could call a “animal loving family”, our household consisting of dogs and cats , to even lizards and turtles. I have years of hands on experience with our furry friends, administering medications, grooming , feeding and their general well being. Over the years, I have nurtured my skills of patience and understanding which is a neglected but so important part of good and quality pet care . I am a responsible and attentive pet carer, but notably also a very jovial and gentle individual who genuinely has a passion for caring for animals ! Perfectly! I work night shifts on the weekends so I am free throughout the week and also open more than happy to accommodate where needed :) I have a spacious, wooden floored open floor first floor apartment , with a variety of parks near by to fulfil alll wanted needs of our furry friends!
13. Harpreet S.
“Harps is simply incredible. During Christmas holidays we left our dog with her while we were away. We couldn’t be happier with the love and care she pampered my dog with. She made sure my dog had plenty of exercise and playtime. She sent us regular photos and updates which gave me peace of mind. We highly recommend Harps for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”

About: I have personal hands on experience looking after dogs as I owned a dog for quite some time which was an amazing experience. On top of that I’m the go to for babysitting children. I work from home so I can take the time to look after your animal and give him/her the attention they need. Because I work from home I can also find times in the day to feed and walk your pets I am a full time worker however I work from home so am not restricted to what I can do. Because of this I have the ability to take regular breaks and can use this time to walk your dogs I live in a 2 bedroom apartment so there is plenty of space to move around. I also live 5-10 mins away from 2 parks. It would be beneficial if your dog was house trained however if you have a puppy I am more than happy to take extra time to take them outside to the ‘bathroom’
15. Chloe F.

16. Katie W.
“Katie is a very caring individual in general with a genuine love for all animals. She is interested in doing this role because she has an absolute passion for dogs, and would most definitely be excellent at it.”
17. Kayleigh C.
About: I have had pets my entire life both cats and dogs now I am at university I miss them. My pets recently passed away and it has been hard on my parents to get another I’m currently at university but am currently doing part time as I am resitting my year. While I’m not on placement I have a lot of spare time I have a big gated garden and live close to fields, I am comfortable staying at the pets home if it is more comfortable for them to keep them in their own environment
18. James C.
About: Although I am quite young, I've looked after many animals from tortoises to Xl bullies and have an appreciation for all of them and love to give them what they deserve.Happiness. I study at college on Tuesday and Thursdays (the only days I'm not available) studying a HNC but apart from that I am free most of the time to look after your pets. To ensure your pets are safe and secure, I would check they are always indoors or if they are in the garden completely fenced off so they cannot escape but, also I would constantly be interacting so if they were to have something wrong with them you and emergency pet services would be contacted immediately and updated constantly.
19. Renae M.
About: I’ve mostly taken care of cats. I grew up with a beautiful cat. He loves to snuggle, play and most of all…sleep. He loves smoked salmon too, haha! He’s 11 now. I’m not currently working so I‘m very flexible. I have open availability, especially during the holidays and weekends. Plenty of time to care for pets :). The flat is very calm, warm, cozy and clean; a safe haven for pets! As I’m not working, they’ll have lots of love and attention.
20. Sandeep K.
