Pet Sitting Sandy

“Ciara was great with our senior dachshund, Zelda! Very knowledgeable and patient with our shy old gal!”

About: I have had pets since a very young age and have been in charge of walking, feeding, administering medicine and cleaning up after them. I recently also house sit for my friend with her cat and ensured they were well taken care of the entire time. I work in a school so am able to do walks after work at around 4pm. I am able to do stop ins before and after work if necessary and on my lunch break if not too far. I work Monday to Friday from 8:50 until 15:30 but am available all day on half terms. I am able to provide walks, feedings, brushing fur if needed and also taking out for toilets. I will play with the animal as well to ensure enrichment.

“I’m usually reluctant to have anyone look after my dogs that I haven’t known for years but both Poppy and Teddy took to Esther immediately which eased my worries immediately. Esther was great and so clearly a dog person. I will have no hesitation in booking Esther again”

About: I am currently a groom for horses, I have been for quite a few years, and I have had dogs my whole life from puppies to old age, so I have experience and the basic knowledge of looking after dogs. Family have also trusted me to look after their pets, feeding and letting them out in the garden everyday I am currently on part-time work, so I am free weekdays during the day at lunchtimes and I do not work late so I would be around. I also have a license, working in the local area so I am always around I am always attentive when looking after pets, checking the area for any signs they could get out or any ways they could injure themselves while playing or running around

“Very good. Professional and thorough in the set up.”

“Kelsey was great looking after our furbaby during a heatwave. She sent regular photos and asked us if there was anything else we needed to tackle the heat. We’ll be booking her again :)”

I’m confident with dogs and cats of different ages, personalities and needs, and always prioritise their welfare, comfort and happiness. I work on a flexible 0-hour contract, so my availability varies from week to week. I keep my calendar updated and can often accommodate weekday, evening and weekend bookings.

I’ll keep their environment clean and secure, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: Hi! I’m Gina, a friendly and reliable animal lover based in Bedfordshire with a Level 3 qualification in Animal Science and hands-on experience working with a variety of animals. Through both my studies and work experience placements, I’ve gained experience caring for animals with different personalities, routines and needs. I’m confident handling dogs of different breeds and sizes and understand the importance of patience, safety and proper care. I’m passionate about making pets feel comfortable, happy and well looked after while their owners are away. Whether that’s walks, feeding, playtime, company or sticking closely to their usual routine, I always make sure each pet gets lots of attention and care. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with and happy to provide regular photo and message updates for peace of mind. Although I originally planned to pursue a career in animal care, I currently work as an estate agent in Cambridge Monday to Friday from 8am–5:30pm. During the week, I’m available for walks and drop-in visits around my working hours. I’m also happy to provide house sitting during the week if your pet is comfortable being left during these hours or already has daytime arrangements in place. I have full availability on weekends and can offer more flexible care, walks, drop-ins and overnight stays. I make sure pets are comfortable and stick closely to their normal routine, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime or company. I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs and always aim to keep them feeling safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos.

About: Hi, I’m Martha! 🐾 I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, and caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy. I have hands-on experience working with dogs in a kennel environment, as well as experience in veterinary and grooming settings. When looking after your dog, I want them to feel safe, loved, comfortable and happy. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs, and I’m always happy to take the time to get to know them and make them feel at ease. I’m particularly gentle and patient with nervous or shy dogs and will never rush them. I love giving dogs plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime and exercise, while making sure they have everything they need. Your pet’s wellbeing is my biggest priority, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. ❤️ I’m reliable, responsible and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure they’re happy and well cared for. I’d love to meet your furry friend and give them all the love and care they deserve! 🐶💕 I’m available throughout the week and have plenty of flexibility during weekdays. I’m available for dog walking and drop-in visits and can be flexible with times to fit around your dog’s usual routine. I’m happy to work around your needs and make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, care and companionship. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing will always be my priority. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs in a kennel environment, including feeding, exercise, monitoring their behaviour and noticing any changes in their health.

About: I offer reliable local dog walking and drop-in visits, keeping your pets happy, active, and well cared for while you are away or at work. ​I have owned and loved dogs for years and have personally fostered rescue dogs, including assisting with specialized hydrotherapy and physiotherapy care for a foster dog's rehabilitation. In addition to caring for household pets, I have practical hands-on experience in animal husbandry through my volunteer farm work, which has a strong focus on animal welfare and hands-on education. ​This rich background gives me great confidence, patience, and a calm, clear understanding of animal behavior, special medical or physical needs, and routine. Whether it’s an energetic walk or a quiet drop-in visit to check food, water, and play, I treat every dog with the highest level of care and attention. As a single mum, my pet care schedule is designed to fit perfectly around school hours. I am primarily available for dog walking and drop-in visits during the daytime on weekdays. This setup allows me to give your dog my full, undivided attention while you are busy at work. I am flexible, reliable, and will always do my best to accommodate your dog's regular feeding, walking, and toilet routines. Because I offer walking and drop-in visits, your dog stays completely comfortable and secure in their own familiar environment. When visiting your home, I am highly respectful of your property and security routines. On walks, your dog's safety is my absolute priority. My background in farm animal welfare, fostering, and canine rehabilitation (including physiotherapy) means I am highly vigilant, patient, and completely confident handling dogs with special medical or behavioral needs.

About: I confess I love dogs more than cats, hehe. That's just a family joke/discussion topic! .... I do love animals in general and have done pet sitting via this page, Trusted Housesitters and World Packers ... Thought that doing it here would also be an opportunity to fund my studies with something I like to do. I consider myself relieable and organised. I'm also ready to adapt and work under specific instructions/needs. I'm studying and doing part time work at the moment. So I have good availability at the moment. I can also be very flexible and able to do last minute pet care, specially if it is not too far from me. We strive to always cater for the pet's needs ... undertand the pet's habits and routines. And I guess loving what you do and putting yourself on other people's shoes is always important to do alaways the best I can.

“Fabulous person”

I have a very large and secure garden and a beautiful yet animal friendly home, that is currently being extended to a lot more space for more precious pets!

About: I have grown up around animals and have always had dogs growing up. We are now dog lovers with our a dog of their own The majority of the time I do work from home Monday - Friday, however there are days where I may need to be in the office. If this is the case my boyfriend works close by to pop home for lunch time walks. I do live in a 1 bedroom flat however we have a full communal garden downstairs and close to nice places for walkers :) x

About: I am 30, with three children and a little yorkie. I have grown up around dogs and other pets. My own dog is currently 6 and she's a ball of energy. I'm out on regular walks with her and we are always looking for new fur friends to come along too. Hosting dogs is good fun for us and we enjoy seeing them come and go. We also love visiting your pets to keep them happy. M dog doesnt always come with me on visits so let me know if you'd like her to come or stay at home :). I want to keep your animals as chilled out and in as normal a routine as possible. Walking and feeding with regular toilet times is of paramount importance to me with the obligatory play time of course! :)

“Conscientious and checked in by phone when something was different from expected 👍”

About: I love dogs and had a shih tzu named Pebbles for 13 years. I also was a horse owner for many years so I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I work from home now and miss having a dog to shower with love and attention. My friends regularly ask me to dogsit for them when they are away. My schedule is flexible and I work on different time zones, so I have time during the day to accommodate for the specific needs of your dog. I have a small fenced area outside they can go out to during the day. I live and equal distance to Primrose Hill & Hampstead Heath, so lots of space to take them for long walks. I work from home and have lots of flexibility to take them out during the day. I am very adaptable to the needs of every dog I take care of. I have a nice lower ground floor flat with a walled off terrace outside. I usually keep the door open for them during the day to wander in and out as they please. Dogs are allowed to sleep in bed with me, except if the owner prefers otherwise if they are crate trained, etc.
