About: I have hands-on experience helping to care for my relatives’ dogs, Annie, Bruno and Terra. This has made me comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages and personalities, including puppies and medium breeds. I am calm, patient, responsible and attentive, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and individual needs. I will carefully follow all feeding, walking and care instructions and give every dog plenty of attention in my calm, pet-free home. I also live very close to Duthie Park, which is ideal for enjoyable walks and exercise. Owners will receive regular photographs and updates for reassurance. I am currently taking a planned career break, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide dogs with individual attention, companionship and care throughout the day.

“After returning from our holiday, our pet came out as a new dog! Happy, fit and well loved! Our dog generally requires a lot of exercise and Rodger provided plenty of exercise, love, care and attention. The best during the holiday was to receive the updates and photos of Amber! Rodger communicated very well and established a good relationship with Amber! We will be leaving Amber with Rodger in the future! Rita & David”
“Thanks for looking after Huxley. He is a very high energy spaniel and Kieran had a nice calming manner with him. We loved getting a photo of him snuggled on the sofa looking very happy. Thanks again!”

“Jemma was absolutely fantastic looking after Ellie over the weekend. This was our first time booking with her, and she made the whole experience so easy and reassuring from start to finish. She was able to take Ellie in on quite short notice, which we really appreciated, and she was quick to respond to all of my questions both before and after the booking. Throughout Ellie’s stay, Jemma went above and beyond with updates. She sent loads of photos without me even needing to ask, which gave me real peace of mind and made it clear Ellie was happy and well cared for. Jemma also took Ellie out to cafés and introduced her to some friendly doggy companions, always checking with me beforehand to make sure I was comfortable with it. I really appreciated that level of communication and consideration. Most importantly, Ellie came back happy and relaxed, which says everything. I will definitely be rebooking Jemma again without hesitation and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”
“Jane was a lovely, calm, and considerate boarder! She took on all of my crazy collie’s quirks and showered her with love whilst I was away for a work trip and I also really really appreciated her coming to meet us for a walk to get to know Millie first 😊 Millie came home tuckered out after loads of exercise and fun with Jane. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Jack did a great job looking after our crazy young Cocker Spaniel at short notice, though I think he was very glad to hand him back! Thanks for taking good care of him. He was also very accommodating of our last-minute change of times, and that was very much appreciated.”
“A huge thank you to Camilo for looking after Betty at short notice. Camilo was always contactable, sent lots of pics each day and gave us lots of updates during Betty's stay. A huge thank you to Camilo’s mum for the lovely little gift she gave Betty when we picked her up 😊, Betty was clearly very relaxed in their company. Would 100% recommend.”
“Rebecca was absolutely amazing!! She made murphy so welcome in her house and sent a load of photos through the day to keep our minds at rest. He was well exercised and plenty of cuddles and when we came to pick him up he clearly wanted to stay. We will 100% use Rebecca again for looking after murphy and highly recommend her to others”
“Emma and her husband were really helpful in accommodating a last-minute booking, which I truly appreciated. They were friendly, welcomed me into their home, and showed me where Ellie would be staying, which was reassuring. They also responded to my messages and kept in touch when I asked for updates, which made me feel more comfortable while Ellie was with them.”
“Evelyn took the best care of my little kitty, and on such short notice too. She was really good at providing updates throughout my pets' stay with her and made sure my little guy enjoyed himself. Couldn't ask for a better pet sitter :)”
“Zoe was great while Ellie was boarding with her for two nights over a weekend. She was excellent with communication from the start, and was also very accommodating when we needed to adjust our drop-off and pick-up times. During Ellie's stay, we received plenty of photos and updates, and was well looked after. We'd definitely recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter, and will be booking Ellie with her again.”
“Glen and Sarah couldn't have been better, my energy filled Red Setter settled in immediately and was made to feel completely at home. They communicated promptly and kept me updated over her stay. Absolutely brillant, and I have booked them again for my next break.”
“Misty loves going to Eury’s because she gets so well looked after and has a lot of fun. I love taking Misty to Eury’s because I know she will be well looked after and I will be kept updated and sent photo. I’ve used Eury several times now and will continue to do so as she’s just great. Super friendly and her family are very welcoming too. A home away from home. I would heartily recommend her.”
“I am so grateful of the care Bruna gave my puppy on such short notice. Ginger came back to me happy and healthy. She took note of Ginger's needs on the first visit so during my trip I was quite relaxed. I definitely recommend her and I would consider leaving my dog with her in next opportunities without hesitation.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Zhi gave our girl leia! She is a rescue dog who is very anxious and sometimes doesn’t take well to men but from the very start, Zhi was thoughtful and attentive, making sure Leia felt safe and comfortable and this showed because she took to him very well. We were so impressed by the number of updates we received—photos, little stories, and check-ins that really put our minds at ease as previous sitters we have used would only update us once a day and I never felt this was enough so the constant updates really meant the world to us. Having someone so reliable and caring meant we could truly relax knowing our pup was in the best hands. We would recommend Zhi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and wonderful dog sitter and I now no longer dread leaving her. His dog dream also made her feel right at home and it was lovely to see them be so comfortable around eachother. We will 100% be booking again!”
“Kayleigh and family looked after Rufus for 3 weeks in July. They took exceptionally good care of Rufus so we were very happy and will definitely use Kayleigh again. - Plenty of walks and excercise - Nice house and garden in a nice area, so we knew Rufus would be safe and secure - They have a small dog who was a good companion for Rufus - Socialising with other dogs, which was good for Rufus - Daily updates with lots of photos gave peace of mind”

“Leony was once again amazing! Went out of her way to visit my cat Brian very early in the morning and kept me super informed and updated about him! Can’t give enough praise!”
“Kaitlin was amazing with our shy girl when we were away for 8 days. She came to meet her beforehand, and was very great with keeping in touch while we were away and sending lots of photographs each day. She even managed to get our girl to eat some treats from her hand as she is usually very shy and a bit antisocial with new people! Will definitely use Kaitlin again and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Shaka took to Sophie quite quick, so definitely a weight off my shoulders while away. She seemed attentive and concerned about him. He is a little temperamental so no concerns but it proved she cares 😁 Will definitely consider rebooking with my next trip away.”
About: I was grown and raised around cats, and have grown very accustomed to their behaviours and how every cat is different with different means, displayed through body language. I have also taken care of multiple stray cats around the area I grew up and have done so consistently from age 10.
“Emily cared wonderfully for our kitten, Bear—keeping him entertained, loved, and fed on schedule. She even took the initiative to clean and refill his litter tray. We returned to a happy, well-cared-for kitten. Her love for animals and experience show; we highly recommend her as a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
“Reah has looked after our cat, Nika, a few times now, and it is always reassuring to know she is in good hands. We really appreciate the updates and attention she gives Nika while we’re away, and Nika clearly feels comfortable with her, which gives us real peace of mind! We had very limited phone signal on this trip and weren’t able to check in as much as usual, so it was especially comforting to know that everything was being taken care of. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Reah to anyone looking for a caring & reliable cat sitter 😻”
“This is our second time using Svitlana after she took such good care of Luna the last time. We got daily updates and several photos, and she even spent time with Luna, giving her lots of pets and cuddles. We came home to a very happy cat, and we will definitely use Svitlana again in the future.”
About: I had pet cats for many years during childhood and a few years ago our cat gad kittens and then abandoned them. I had to rear them by hand until they could be taken by foster cats! I often pop in to feed friends cats when they go away and love giving them cuddles and someone to play with. I would love to look after your pet and provide peace of mind for you when you are not there. I live in Aberdeen and do shift work full time so my work days can vary.
“She and her husband were so excited to watch Velaris for me and communicated with me everyday. It made my time away easier knowing he was being taken care of by someone who was so happy to watch him”
“Kasie was great with our shy cat. We got regular updates and photos and she provided a brilliant cat sitting service. Our cat Luna really warmed to Kasie and you can tell she loves animals. Thank you”
“Holly house sits for our 12 year old cat, Max. We find Holly to be reliable, honest, trustworthy and consciousness. A pleasure to have in our home and Max adores her loving disposition. We were kept updated with photos and messages throughout our absence and that was very reassuring. We have no hesitation recommending Holly for house sitting and drop in visits and are delighted to have found her. 10/10”
“Grace was so lovely when we met her for the meet and greet. She took the time to listen to all of my dogs needs and quirks. My dog can be quite anxious but she took to Grace straight away and it was clear in the photos shared with us on each visit that she was always happy and well looked after. Thanks so much Grace!”
“Cannot recommend Jiao enough! My cat George was slightly nervous the first two visits as he is only used to me and my partner and she persevered and found ways to make him feel comfortable until he adjusted to her. Jiao left my flat in perfect condition and my boy very happy. Very good communication with pictures and updates which was very much appreciated. Will definitely book again .”
“Sam did an amazing job as always looking after our cats! We got regular updates and pictures which we really appreciated! Sam even managed to get our grumpy cat to play!! Would highly recommend and will book again in the future 😊”
“Can't thank Kiarra enough for putting our minds at easy whilst on holiday. The updates everyday and seeing how relaxed our cat was with her really helped us enjoy our time away. 10/10, will recommend and use again the future”

“This was Ruby's first time away from us at Doggy Day Care. Margaret, Zoe, Skye & family are very friendly caring animal lovers who we trust implicitly with our precious girl. She had a fabulous day full of fun, love, walks and happiness with Skye. We were regularly updated with joyful photos that were much appreciated and reassuring.

About: I've grown up in a family that has always loved dogs, so caring for them has been a natural part of my life from a young age.

“Fiona was very responsive and took Suki for daycare at very short notice. I got updates and photos from her and Suki seemed comfortable in her space. I will definitely look to book with Fiona again 😊”
“We had an amazing experience with Zhi. He took incredible care of our dog Moose and his own dog, Dream, was a lovely companion. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay, and we received lots of photos and updates, which gave us total peace of mind. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend!”

“Murphy came back from his visits with Stephanie really chirpy. The photos shared by Stephanie show that he was made to feel at home and well looked after. He came back after each visit tired so obviously had lots of walks and exercise and he was always happy to go back. Will definitely use Stephanie again!”
“Ru spent the day with Carla and Billie. They were fantastic together. Ru had such a ball, he didn't want to come home with me 😂 He just wanted to stay and play! Thanks for taking such good care of Ru 🐕”

About: I’ve looked after my dog since she was a puppy in 2015. I hold most responsibility over her, feeding and walking her. I love playing with her and giving her the attention she deserves. I also own many fish that i feed multiple times a day and love them to bits ! I’m currently a university student so have quite a free schedule !!! I typically go to university for a few hours a day a week and some days i have nothing, so am quite available to anything I live in a flat, with a shared garden, which goes mainly unused by the other residents, it is fenced off from other gardens. I’m typically a clean person so if any accidents occur such as having an accident on the carpet or floor, it’s not a bother to clean up no worries !
About: I have a Level 3 VTQ certification in Pet First Aid for Pet Professionals from ProTrainings, as well as Dog Care/Cat care Level 2 (VTQ) qualified, which equips me with the skills to handle emergencies and provide essential medical care to pets, and now ensure to carry an animal first aid kit with me to all sits. I've also spent some time as a volunteer at 'Oasi Felice degli Animali' an animal sanctuary in Sardinia Italy, and cared for a wide variety of animals, including horses, ponies, dogs, cats, sheep, and goats. My responsibilities included feeding, grooming, and providing companionship, as well as cleaning their living spaces to ensure a safe and hygienic environment. I also assisted with basic medical care and rehabilitation, embracing the sanctuary’s holistic approach to animal care, which treats animals as autonomous beings and caters to their individual needs rather than trying to control them. Additionally, my experience at the National Animal Welfare Trust involved caring for and cleaning after rabbits, further broadening my animal care skills. I am currently an adult and paediatric student nurse, and have found many skills and therapeutic techniques have been very transferable to my work as a pet sitter ensuring that the animals I care for receive the best possible attention and care. I'm currently, a nursing student, however there tend to be stretches of time where our learning is primarily online so I'm able to work around that. I can provide any type of security measures you deem appropriate for the care of your pet, as keeping them safe is my top priority.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. I’m now 22 and currently have two dogs and five cats of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and patience pets need every day. I’ve grown up caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to large breeds, and I also have experience caring for litters of kittens, small animals, birds, and reptiles. Over the years, family and friends have trusted me to look after their pets while they’re away, giving me experience with a wide range of personalities and needs. I’m especially patient with shy or nervous pets and always take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Animals truly are my passion, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with reactive dogs, just let me know in advance so we can plan around it. I am constantly trying to better myself with online CPD courses on dog training, behaviour and canine communication. Fully insured and looking forward to meeting my new best friends❤️ I am currently working full time, however most of my shifts finish around 12:30/1:30pm, so I have the time for my new besties. All walks and drop in visits will be carefully planned and fitted into the schedule. Please let me know your preferences on dealing with your pets as I would like to honour them. I have a car with back seat cover, hopefully will be able to upgrade to a van soon. I will make sure to check all doors and windows are closed and locked upon leaving.

Our dog generally requires a lot of exercise and Rodger provided plenty of exercise, love, care and attention. The best during the holiday was to receive the updates and photos of Amber!

“Jemma was absolutely fantastic looking after Ellie over the weekend. This was our first time booking with her, and she made the whole experience so easy and reassuring from start to finish. She was able to take Ellie in on quite short notice, which we really appreciated, and she was quick to respond to all of my questions both before and after the booking. Throughout Ellie’s stay, Jemma went above and beyond with updates. She sent loads of photos without me even needing to ask, which gave me real peace of mind and made it clear Ellie was happy and well cared for. Jemma also took Ellie out to cafés and introduced her to some friendly doggy companions, always checking with me beforehand to make sure I was comfortable with it. I really appreciated that level of communication and consideration. Most importantly, Ellie came back happy and relaxed, which says everything. I will definitely be rebooking Jemma again without hesitation and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”
“Jane was a lovely, calm, and considerate boarder! She took on all of my crazy collie’s quirks and showered her with love whilst I was away for a work trip and I also really really appreciated her coming to meet us for a walk to get to know Millie first 😊 Millie came home tuckered out after loads of exercise and fun with Jane. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Jack did a great job looking after our crazy young Cocker Spaniel at short notice, though I think he was very glad to hand him back! Thanks for taking good care of him. He was also very accommodating of our last-minute change of times, and that was very much appreciated.”
“Emma and her husband were really helpful in accommodating a last-minute booking, which I truly appreciated. They were friendly, welcomed me into their home, and showed me where Ellie would be staying, which was reassuring. They also responded to my messages and kept in touch when I asked for updates, which made me feel more comfortable while Ellie was with them.”
“Evelyn took the best care of my little kitty, and on such short notice too. She was really good at providing updates throughout my pets' stay with her and made sure my little guy enjoyed himself. Couldn't ask for a better pet sitter :)”
“Zoe was great while Ellie was boarding with her for two nights over a weekend. She was excellent with communication from the start, and was also very accommodating when we needed to adjust our drop-off and pick-up times. During Ellie's stay, we received plenty of photos and updates, and was well looked after. We'd definitely recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter, and will be booking Ellie with her again.”
“Glen and Sarah couldn't have been better, my energy filled Red Setter settled in immediately and was made to feel completely at home. They communicated promptly and kept me updated over her stay. Absolutely brillant, and I have booked them again for my next break.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Zhi gave our girl leia! She is a rescue dog who is very anxious and sometimes doesn’t take well to men but from the very start, Zhi was thoughtful and attentive, making sure Leia felt safe and comfortable and this showed because she took to him very well. We were so impressed by the number of updates we received—photos, little stories, and check-ins that really put our minds at ease as previous sitters we have used would only update us once a day and I never felt this was enough so the constant updates really meant the world to us. Having someone so reliable and caring meant we could truly relax knowing our pup was in the best hands. We would recommend Zhi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and wonderful dog sitter and I now no longer dread leaving her. His dog dream also made her feel right at home and it was lovely to see them be so comfortable around eachother. We will 100% be booking again!”
“Aisling was fantastic.Great communication throughout and very helpful through the entire booking process.My Hugo loved his stay and had lots of fun,will book again most definately.”
“Vilte was great with our Mika! While being in Viltes care, Mika went for lots of adventures and was very well taken care of. She also sent regular updates and photos, keeping us at ease while away! Mika had a blast!”
“Our dog had a great time staying with Carla, he was relaxed and got on well with Carla's dog Billie. This was noticeable from the start when he just walked in without any convincing. Carla gave regular updates and pictures throughout his stay and we were happy enough to already book his next stay.”
“Angela and her family are so lovely! Tavish had a great stay and we loved that he was so well cared for - the whole family (including Mr Darcy!) were so good with him. We met Angela and her family before confirming the booking to make sure of a good fit from both sides and she kept in touch with updates and photos throughout his stay which really put our minds at ease. Thank you so much again Angela.”
