Pet Sitting Sandy

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.

“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 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

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.

About: I have a Foundation Degree and Level 3 qualification in Animal Management, with practical experience caring for animals. 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 take animal welfare and safety seriously and will follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions carefully. I’ll keep their environment clean and secure, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

“Eleanor was so lovely, she was really communicative and kept me up to date with pictures. Betty had a wonderful time with her, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others.”

I have hands-on experience working with dogs in a kennel environment, as well as experience in veterinary and grooming settings.

“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”

“Lily was great with Pippa, she shared photos and updates with me and I felt confident that Pippa was in good hands. Thank you so much Lily!”

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.

“Fabulous person”

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! :)

About: I have taken care of different animals my whole life as I grew up with lots of different pets. The large dog I grew up with was very nervous around people and this gave me great experience with this sort of behaviour. I have always had cats as they suit my now lifestyle much better than a dog. I work full-time with two days in London (weds/thurs) on these days I would not be available until the evenings if needed. I live in Potton and happy to travel to the local villages and towns. Will work with you to understand where your pets likes to be in your home and garden. I have done home drop-ins before for neighbours and always very respectful of peoples home and spaces.

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.

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