“10 out of 10 visit!!!!! Leaving my dogs is a big thing for me.. I like to know they are well looked after and walked like I know they need walked. Becky and Paul did exactly this 😊 Over the course of a few walks they got to know the dogs and then boarded them for us last weekend whilst we were on holiday. We recieved updates on how the dogs were doing.. how well they had settled and also compliments on how well trained and behaved they were. We recieved photos and videos ( my favourite part ) and also strava updates on all the walks they had done. I cant wait to book up with these guys again.. they are 100% our new pet sitters.”
“Grant looked after our cockapoo Remy while we were attending a wedding in Dundee. Grant was super friendly and accommodating. He’s someone you can trust to take care of your pet. Thanks again, if we’re back in the area I’m sure Remy would be pleased to see you for another stay!”
About: Having just lost my best friend, Nacho, after 14.5 years together, I’m here to pour my love into other dogs and give them the best stay possible filled with attention and affection. Making my own pup proud that I’m helping other dogs feel loved in his home even though he’s not here 🐾🤍 I work part time on a flexible schedule so I can try my best to look after your pup when I can and offer the best care. I can offer over night stays as well as through the day when I’m not working. I have a fenced garden/patio and access to a very big park and riverside walkway. Your dog will have full access to my house so they feel as at home as possible.
“Our wee cocker had the pleasure of a sleepover with Anne on Saturday. We dropped Rosie off at 12.30, and Anne had sent us 2 updates, with pics before teatime. Anne is a lovely, welcoming, friendly lady who is clearly a pet lover. We would not hesitate to leave Rosie with Anne again :)”
“Another great experience with Andi and Rory. Snoopy loves them and clearly had a great holiday while I enjoyed mine with the knowledge Snoopy was safe and happy, recieving regular updates on his adventures.”
“We had a great experience with our Rhiannon and her family! They were absolutely lovely and made Aspen feel right at home. It was clear from the updates and photos that she was relaxed, happy, and enjoying herself. She had plenty of lovely walks and came back to us calm and content. We’d definitely be happy to book again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her!”
“Ellie was AMAZING! We had to book in with Ellie very last minute due to a family emergency - and we cannot thank her enough. Ellie even offered to collect Ted for us due to the circumstances. Ted had a wonderful time with Ellie - we were sent photos and videos of Ted throughout his stay. He came home a very tired boy! Highly recommend Ellie! 😄👍🏼”
About: I have taken care of my friend's Labrador cross rescue here and there for two years now. my responsibilities included dog walking, feeding, toilet runs, giving her medication, doing runs in the car, and showering her with love and attention. I am currently a full-time nursing student at UoD and have classes throughout the week but I am usually free Thursday to Monday. If I do have to go to a lecture it is usually no more than two hours. In my home with the cats we feed the cats 3 times a day and get let in for attention usually after breakfast and stay in the house (they are outside cats) until their next meal and then go out to eat in the garage while we eat in the house and when everyone is done they are let back in. When petsitting for my friend, we would usually go for 1-2 walks a day and spend most of our time playing in the back garden or driving around with her head out the window. At night we would sit and cuddle together while watching TV and then she would sleep in her bed overnight.
“I was totally satisfied with the way Daniel looked after Poppy last week. The photos and comments he sent me were very comforting and she was not in the huff with me when I picked her up which has happened before!”
“Grant provides a very thorough approach to his service. He takes it seriously, as he should. It's his reputation and he wants to provide the best. But I hope in time we can trust each other, so he can relax a bit more. Poppy herself had a lovely time. She can come across as being a bit excitable to start with but she settles down quickly. She would have thoroughly enjoyed the walks that Grant provides. Dates already booked in again for further holidays.”
“Danielle was an exceptional host for Teddy. Her home is clean, warm, and inviting. Teddy took to this space straight away on his first visit and I felt comfortable leaving him in Danielle's capable hands. I received regular and prompt updates about Teddy during his visit and this was most helpful. I would recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a loving place for their dog to stay whilst they are away.”
“Wonderful care for Alfie, my dog. He came home happy, well exercised and relaxed. Sabrina kept me up to date with regular pictures of Alfie having a fun time: walking, sleeping and playing. He had a great time and hopefully will be returning as a boarder again.”
“My dog stayed with Luna for the first time. Luna took fantastic care of him, he was well looked after and cared for. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the stay. I would highly recommend Luna and have already booked the next stay for my dog”
“Caitlin was an excellent dog-sitter. Our pup seemed very happy during her stay with Caitlin who kept us up-to-date with messages and photos which were very reassuring. We’d highly recommend and plan to re-book if we need dog-sitting in the future.”

“Becky was great as always caring for our 2 cats and at short notice! Love the regular updates and photos from Becky keeping me informed of how the cats are doing is very reassuring and knowing they’re well cared for allows me to relax whilst I’m away from them. 👍🏻👍🏻”
“Holly is an exceptional pet sitter, she looked after my cat while I was away over the weekend and followed our routine and all instructions perfectly, putting me and my fussy boy completely at ease. She sent lots of photos and videos of him being his goofiest self showing how comfy he was with her from the very beginning, and gave me lots of updates to put my anxious mind to rest. Holly also went above and beyond, to make the space clean and welcoming for me coming home. I would thoroughly recommend her and will be booking with her again! Thank you Holly! 🌟😻”
“We only used Alice for a night but she was brilliant! Despite the short booking she put in so much effort with our cat and sent lots of great photos to keep us updated. We will definitely be booking again! ”
“Cheryl is a phenomenal cat visitor! She is reliable, extremely trustworthy and friendly. She sent videos, photos and information on my cat every day I was away. She clearly enjoys the work she does and I recommend her to anyone worried about leaving their cat(s). Not sure how I'm going to match the love and attention she provided!!”
“Was great having Laura coming to look after the cats when I was travelling for a couple of weeks. Very dependable, trustworthy and helpful, super friendly and the cats loved her! Definitely will ask her to look after the cats again next time I travel!”
“Couldn't recommend enough. Luka stayed on an overnight for my cat and communication before during and after was perfect. Went above and beyond and was just human and warm as well as attentive and skilled with my cat. Luka handled, medication, an old creaky house and a stressed pet owner like a champ. Will be booking again 100% ❤️”
“Brodi was great once again! I am so happy that we have found such a reliable cat sitter who cares so much about cats. Getting regular updates and photos really helps to calm my anxiety about leaving Winston! Thanks once again :) ”
“Ivana took care of my little ones, Pepe and Teto. They warmed up to her very quickly and we could tell from photos and videos that they were feeling comfortable and cozy with her. Ivana was caring, sending us updates throughout their stay, which made us feel at ease. Thank you so much for caring for them, Ivana, we’ll definitely book again with you! X”
“Amber was fantastic with my dog Cooper! She stopped by for a drop-in and he was so excited to see her — tail wagging, happy dancing, the whole thing. She sent photos right away, which I really appreciated. I’ll admit, Cooper is definitely a pampered pooch, but none of that was too much for Amber. She handled him perfectly. Highly recommend her — Cooper’s already hoping she comes back soon! 🐶💛”
About: I have had cats my whole life and have cared for them solely since I was 10, including cleaning later boxes, feeding and playing with them. I have cat sit for other members of my family in the past for no more than a week here and there but I have a lot of experience with cat sitting.
“Jennifer pops in to check on my dog, Kobe, a few days each week, and I genuinely couldn’t recommend her highly enough. She’s reliable, caring, and fantastic with him, and Kobe absolutely loves seeing her. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy to look after your pet, I’d definitely recommend getting in touch with Jennifer.”
“Tari was absolutely wonderful with my cat! We first met a couple of months before the booking, and from the beginning it was clear how knowledgeable she is about cats. She gave me lots of helpful advice, particularly around diet and nutrition, which I really appreciated. When my cat stayed with her, I could tell he felt completely at home with Tari and her cat, Milo. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was travelling knowing that he was comfortable and being well looked after. Tari kept me updated throughout his stay and regularly sent me photos, which made it even easier to relax and enjoy my trip without worrying about him. I had a really positive experience with Tari and would definitely feel comfortable leaving my cat with her again. I’d happily book with her in the future and would absolutely recommend her to other cat owners!”
“Malin was great and even helped me with a last minute additional visit to make sure the door stopper was in place that gave me a great relief and guaranteed my cat won’t get locked in one room for 24 hours, I got photos and updates about my cat daily. I wasn’t worried about anything and so will definitely be back :)”
About: I have had a dog of my own for two years and he had to stay back in Greece with my family, so I really miss him. I love spending time with dogs, especially playing and going on walks with them. I am currently a uni student attending my third year in Pharmacology. My timetable consists of an average of 1-2 hours of uni work/lectures so I have plenty of free time during my day. My flat is pretty spacious and I live with my two flatmates that are also dog lovers. The environment is really cosy and the dogs will be sleeping in my room either next to my bed or with me if they wish to, so they can have company and feel comfortable at all times.

“My pup was tired and happy. I believe he received all the attention and care he needed. He can very clingy and asking for attention most of time. I am looking forward to entrust my pup to her care in future and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“I'm often quite anxious to leave Steve with anyone. As a 10 month old black lab, he can be a lot to handle! Yet as we were moving house, Mariah very graciously agreed to take Steve on for doggy day care and overnight boarding! Mariah and her partner were amazing with him. She even brought him some pig ears as a treat! She took him for many walks and kept me updated with lots of pics throughout the day. I can see she truly has a passion for dogs and I would leave Steve again with her in a heartbeat! Could not recommend enough. Thank you Mariah!”
“Luna is just exceptional with Wilson. I can go to work with peace of mind knowing he is in the best hands possible. Luna goes above and beyond with my dog. She asked lots of questions about him to get to know him and has took the time to watch him and learn about his behaviour in just a short space of time. He comes home from Luna's so happy and content and I know he's had a fun day whether that's sleeping on the sofa or going out for a wee walk or one of a number things Luna has done to entertain him. I will continue to use Luna and recommend her to everyone because my boy is so happy with her and he's quite hard to please sometimes!”
“First time leaving my dog Fede at a daycare with someone he didn’t know, and Isidora was very caring and made him feel at home. She was very attentive to his needs throughout the day and kept me updated on how he was doing while he was at her house. She also made sure to introduce her sweet dog Bono to Fede before they came inside, and everything went perfectly. I would definitely leave Fede with her again.”
“Thank you Grant for looking after our beloved dachshund for the day. when we picked up Baxter he seemed happy and settled. We visit family a couple of times a year and will definitely look to use Grant again. Thank you!”
About: I love dogs and enjoy taking care of my doggy nephew when needed, including full boarding, walks, meals and grooming as long as 1 month at a time. I am working from home, so I can keep company for your dog during the day. Small toilet breaks are also available during the day. I can take your dog for a walk on a leash. When at home, I’ll be near all the time. We have a small fenced backyard, but it is shared.
“Holly loves her stays with Daniel and Shirley. Holly gets on amazingly well with Daniel’s dog Shirley and can’t wait to get dropped off. Shirley is also remarkably well trained and all credit to Daniel who is clearly a competent dog handler. Would recommend to anyone 5⭐️”
“Maria took Coco for an afternoon whilst we attended a family celebration. Coco was well looked after and afforded a treat of a visit to a Pet Cafe. When we picked her up she was in great spirits and you could tell she had enjoyed her time with Maria. In the evening all her stimulation had her completely exhausted. Maria’s comms were excellent throughout. From the initial contact, through pre appointment and throughout her time with Coco. She showed warmth and love to our dog as if Coco were her own and on a practical level She was fully prepared for a day for caring for our dog. Fully recommend Maria for your dog care requirements.”
About: I have previous experience dog walking and pet sitting through BorrowMyDoggy app, as well as volunteering for Paws of Kalymnos in Greece, where I helped care for rescue dogs by feeding, cleaning and playing with them. Although I would love to have pets of my own, my partner and I travel regularly, so pet sitting has become a wonderful way for me to spend time with animals, while helping owners feels confident that their pets are receiving excellent care. I work remotely full-time, which means I’m at home throughout the day and can provide plenty of companionship, supervision and attention. All I need to work is an internet connection and a space for my laptop, and I rarely have more than 1 meeting a day. I also have a car for getting around and emergencies. Pets in my care are never left alone for extended periods, and I can easily adapt to their usual routines, whether that means regular walks, play sessions, medical needs, or simply having a calm and reassuring presence nearby. My partner and I live in a 2 story semi- detached house in a quiet cul-de-sac in Dundee. We have a secure fully fenced garden with a lawn behind the house. We are fortunate to have football fields and beautiful walking routes nearby- such as the Dighty Burn, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. We also own a camper van and love to travel further afield with it at the weekends, and get out on bigger walks, rides and hikes further north.
About: Christine and Madison are a mother-daughter due that started pet sitting on a regular basis several years ago when our 2 beautiful Cavalier King Charles passed away after 14 years of being an important part of our family. Since moving to the UK I have kept with it, sitting other dogs is great for me and the pup alike! Every person thinks their dog is the BEST DOG- and they’re not wrong! I have pet sit for puppies that needed training is the early stages to ensure they learn good habits, as well as specializing in senior care. Not only do I enjoy caring for puppies, we understand the specific needs of older pets, providing gentle exercise, and offering extra comfort & attention. A calm & patient demeanor helps pets feel at ease. Whether it's playful energy for the young dogs or tender care for the seniors, I’m dedicated to providing the best possible experience for your furry family members. We have a flexible schedule and can be home most days, ensuring someone is home for your pet if required, on request in advance. Get the best of what pet sitting can offer by hiring me. Taking care of a pet requires a thoughtful balance of time, effort, and love. I am a PHd student with a lot of flexibility in my schedule. MORNING: I am available for morning walks to ensure your dog starts the day with the exercise they need- it’s a healthy start for us too! AFTERNOON: Throughout the day, short breaks are dedicated to playtime, engaging your pet with their favorite toys and activities to keep them mentally stimulated and happy. Socialization is another key aspect, so visits to the dog park or playdates with other pets are a common feature, fostering a sense of community and companionship for your pet. EARLY EVENING: Many owners worry about getting home on time to let their dog out, let us take care of that for you- so that when you do get home you can relax & enjoy your time with your pet. These activities not only cater to your pet's physical needs but also contribute significantly to their emotional well-being, creating a harmonious and fulfilling day for both you & your dog. WE DO NOT PROVIDE: Grooming & health checks. For in-home pet care, it's essential to create a safe & comfortable environment for your pet. I pet-proof our home to eliminate any hazards. Ensure that all necessary supplies, such as food, water, toys, and bedding, are readily available. Follow a consistent feeding and exercise schedule to maintain their routine, and provide plenty of love and attention. If I am pet-sitting in a pet owner's home, communication is key. I begin with a detailed consultation to understand the pet's needs, preferences, and any special instructions. Make sure to adhere to the pet's usual schedule and habits as closely as possible. Keep the pet owner updated with regular messages or photos to reassure them that their beloved pet is in good hands. In both scenarios, I am observant of the pet's behavior and health. I look out for any signs of distress or illness and be prepared to seek veterinary care if needed. Remember, our goal is to make the pet feel loved, secure, and happy, whether they are in your home or ours.
About: I've been enjoying using another app for house sitting pets in the owners home, have looked after 35 pets so far mostly dogs and really enjoy getting to know each beautiful soul! I'm physically and mentally strong, able to manage more demanding behaviors and with gentle patience, charm the most nervous pets. I'm a freelance community project lead so I am flexible and enjoy getting outdoors as much as possible. I love a walk to the park that backs on to my home or a bigger jaunt round to Victoria and Lochee park. I have a fenced in garden for zoomies and the park adjacent for longer stretches. We use the back door as our main door which offers additional safety as we can implement an 'airlock' system between the two internal doors 😅. Our neighborhood is a 20 zone and we live on a cul-de-sac. We have space for your crate if you would like to provide one for your dog's comfort.
“So pleased to have met Carolanne and her partner Neil. Such lovely people and I felt so comfortable leaving our pug Mabel with them. Received lots of lovely photo updates throughout the day and could tell she was in great hands. Absolutely recommend and will now be my go to for doggy sitting xx”
“Leah has been excellent with our dog ithaka. We have so far had a successful meet and greet and first day care session. Her dog Ripley is wonderful and friendly, and Leah and David are very kind and considerate owners. Leah has had experience with a blind dog herself which was very reassuring for us leaving ithaka in her care. Ithaka came back tired and happy We look forward to the next dog sitting”
About: My journey as a pet sitter and dog walker started of in the cafe were I used to work. We had many costumers coming in with dogs and that's when I realised how much joy they brought me. I started offering my coworkers and my regular customers to look after their pets whenever they needed me to. This way I gained an experience in working with various types of dogs and learnt to accommodate all of them in a unique way. I have experience working with dogs of various sizes, special needs dogs, rescues, socially anxious dogs and dogs with separation anxiety. I can assure you that your dog will feel safe, calm and happy with me :) I work in a coffee shop so my work schedule isn't very busy and changes often. Please contact me to arrange time that suits you! I feel dog's needs and limits. I can assure that I'll do my best so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I will take into account all the features of your pet and all your requirements as to how you would like your pet to spend time with me. To ensure comfort and safety, I always request meet and greet with new customers. Unfortunately I don’t take last minute bookings with new customers.

About: 10 years owning dogs, I’m very good at training and looking after them. My Milo has cancer and has been strong for 3 years now after they said he has days. Tyson the terrier has epilepsy. I’ve looked after my aunties dog before (Staffordshire) so very experienced and yet to meet a dog who doesn’t like me :) I live right by the beach with fields and parks surrounding. Milo has two long walks a day, a short one and a garden trip (big enclosed communal garden) at a minimum. So your lovely dog will get the same! Walks, lots of snuggles and the appropriate amount of treats if allowed! I care for me dog better than I do myself and I’ll extend this to any other dog under my responsibility.

About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages and temperaments. I used to help take care of my family’s old, blind dog until he passed away, which taught me a lot about compassion and patience. Since then, I've assisted with other family dogs ranging from puppies to those over ten years old, each with their own unique behaviors, including anxiety and excitement. Recently, I helped my sister with her dog's litter of puppies, as well as caring for the mama dog. She decided to keep one of the puppies, and I’ve been actively involved in training her to establish a routine and become house-trained. Hi, I’m Amber!

I would always prefer to meet you and the animal before booking to discuss things more in person and ensure me and the animal get along.

I’ve cared for lots of dogs belonging to friends and family over the years, so I’m comfortable with all sorts of personalities, ages and needs.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats, dogs, and small pets. I currently have a cat of my own and grew up with both Greyhounds and a Labrador, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I’ve also previously owned cats, dogs, and rodents, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of pets. Growing up, I often accompanied my mum on her dog walks and had the opportunity to meet and interact with many different breeds and temperaments. This helped me become confident around dogs with a wide range of personalities, from energetic and playful to shy and relaxed. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always treat them as if they were my own. I’m reliable, caring, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As I work full-time during the week, my usual availability for pet care is from 6pm onwards on weekdays, with full availability on weekends. I’m also generally available for drop-in visits between 12–2pm on Mondays and Fridays. I can sometimes be flexible with earlier morning visits depending on location and my work schedule, so feel free to message if you’re looking for something slightly outside these times — I’ll always do my best to accommodate where I can. This makes me a great option for evening visits, feeding, walks, companionship, and weekend pet care. I’m also available for overnight stays on Friday and Saturday nights, helping your pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, and I’ll always care for them as if they were my own. I’ll follow their usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, medication, or just giving them the attention and company they’re used to. I have a cat of my own and live in a small one-bedroom flat, so I’m currently unable to offer boarding in my home. Because of this, I provide care in your pet’s home instead, where they can stay in a familiar environment and stick to their normal routine. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and I’ll be happy to send updates and photos for extra peace of mind. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to get to know their personality and needs to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both of you.
About: I have been taking care of dogs of my own or for neighbours and friends since a young age, which developed into a small clientele of dogs whom I would regularly care for throughout my university studies. I have experience caring for puppies (and can confidently assist or continue puppy training) all the way to elderly dogs and am happy administering medication (non-injection). I like to chat with the owners before taking on a pet sitting job to ensure I know exactly what kind of care you expect from me and, more importantly, how I can make the experience as enjoyable as possible for your furry friend. I am currently a PhD student at the University of Dundee so have full autonomy over my schedule and can be at home or take time off during weekday day times. I have availability over the weekends and evenings and can arrange my work to fit around longer sits if need be. I have an enclosed garden which will be useable by your pet only. I live very close to big open spaces so can take them for any length or duration of exercise they might require. I tend to ask owners the specifics of how they prefer me to care for their pet. For example, any feeding/toilet/sleeping schedules, sleeping arrangements and whether or not they should be allowed on furniture/on beds etc. In my opinion the environment I can provide for your pet is largely up to you.
“Daniel is excellent. Such an attentive dog walker! Punctual and kind, and super patient with our little diva Cockapoo! I receive a message everyday to let me know he is on his way and pictures of our girl on her walk. Daniel has even been working on commands with her and teaching her how to be a good girl. Would not hesitate to rebook or recommend!”
“Ellie has been absolutely wonderful with Cooper whilst we have been away and always given me an honest walk update, you can be sure your pooch will be well walked after and walked with Ellie 🫶🏻”
About: Hi! My name's Maria and I loveloveloooove dogs. All dogs. Dogs of all kinds. They're the absolute best. My earliest childhood memory is of my dad bringing a puppy home when I was about 2 years old. It was so fantastic that it brought my consciousness online. Basil lived all the way up to 20 years old and growing up, my family always kept dogs so I'm used to them being around. A house just doesn't feel like a home without one. In March this year my sweet boy, Dexter, had to be put to sleep. You can see him in my profile pictures, he was such a good boy (they're all good boys). There's a bit of a void now I don't have him around and it'd be lovely to take care of dogs again. As a dog lover I know how precious they are and I promise you I will treat them as my own, while they stay with me they'll be part of the family. As well as 30 years of experience being around dogs on a pretty much daily basis, I'm in the process of studying canine psychology so that I can offer training as part of my services. All dogs are different and many of them have 'quirks' that can make caring for them a little more complicated, I'd love to help with that side of things especially. I offer complete one-on-one care. Whilst with me, your dog will have my undivided company and attention. I offer a more focused service because it's better for certain dogs, particularly those who aren't used to being around multiple animals or who are perhaps just a bit needier and want more attention. This allows me to give 100% to the dogs I care for. I work from home as an artist (pet portraits mainly) so my schedule is very flexible and I'm always present to keep an eye on everything and keep them company. They won't be left unattended at any point really and I can accomodate most requests. There's a small, securely fenced garden at the back that I have access to, but there's also lots of green spaces pretty much on my doorstep. Since I'm working at home I can pop out multiple times whenever needed to let them do their business and have a sniff around - so the small garden is no bother at all. I can drive and I'm happy to have dogs in my car, so we can also drive out to explore some nice countryside walks. I'll send you regular updates and pictures so you know how they're doing and can have peace of mind.
About: Although I'm new to 'paid' pet sits, I've been house sitting in exchange for accommodation all over the world for over 3 years. I've cared for anxious cats, energetic dogs, frogs, chickens and even a spider. I adore animals and feel grateful when any pet parent selects me to care for their babies. I’m currently mostly working from home, with the very occasional need to attend the office. So this means I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets 🧡 I care for your pets like I would my own - ensuring they are happy, entertained, comfortable and safe. I provide as much, or as little attention depending on the individual needs.

“10 out of 10 visit!!!!! Leaving my dogs is a big thing for me.. I like to know they are well looked after and walked like I know they need walked. Becky and Paul did exactly this 😊 Over the course of a few walks they got to know the dogs and then boarded them for us last weekend whilst we were on holiday. We recieved updates on how the dogs were doing.. how well they had settled and also compliments on how well trained and behaved they were. We recieved photos and videos ( my favourite part ) and also strava updates on all the walks they had done. I cant wait to book up with these guys again.. they are 100% our new pet sitters.”
“Grant looked after our cockapoo Remy while we were attending a wedding in Dundee. Grant was super friendly and accommodating. He’s someone you can trust to take care of your pet. Thanks again, if we’re back in the area I’m sure Remy would be pleased to see you for another stay!”
About: Having just lost my best friend, Nacho, after 14.5 years together, I’m here to pour my love into other dogs and give them the best stay possible filled with attention and affection. Making my own pup proud that I’m helping other dogs feel loved in his home even though he’s not here 🐾🤍 I work part time on a flexible schedule so I can try my best to look after your pup when I can and offer the best care. I can offer over night stays as well as through the day when I’m not working. I have a fenced garden/patio and access to a very big park and riverside walkway. Your dog will have full access to my house so they feel as at home as possible.
“Our wee cocker had the pleasure of a sleepover with Anne on Saturday. We dropped Rosie off at 12.30, and Anne had sent us 2 updates, with pics before teatime. Anne is a lovely, welcoming, friendly lady who is clearly a pet lover. We would not hesitate to leave Rosie with Anne again :)”
“Another great experience with Andi and Rory. Snoopy loves them and clearly had a great holiday while I enjoyed mine with the knowledge Snoopy was safe and happy, recieving regular updates on his adventures.”
“We had a great experience with our Rhiannon and her family! They were absolutely lovely and made Aspen feel right at home. It was clear from the updates and photos that she was relaxed, happy, and enjoying herself. She had plenty of lovely walks and came back to us calm and content. We’d definitely be happy to book again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her!”
“Ellie was AMAZING! We had to book in with Ellie very last minute due to a family emergency - and we cannot thank her enough. Ellie even offered to collect Ted for us due to the circumstances. Ted had a wonderful time with Ellie - we were sent photos and videos of Ted throughout his stay. He came home a very tired boy! Highly recommend Ellie! 😄👍🏼”
About: I have taken care of my friend's Labrador cross rescue here and there for two years now. my responsibilities included dog walking, feeding, toilet runs, giving her medication, doing runs in the car, and showering her with love and attention. I am currently a full-time nursing student at UoD and have classes throughout the week but I am usually free Thursday to Monday. If I do have to go to a lecture it is usually no more than two hours. In my home with the cats we feed the cats 3 times a day and get let in for attention usually after breakfast and stay in the house (they are outside cats) until their next meal and then go out to eat in the garage while we eat in the house and when everyone is done they are let back in. When petsitting for my friend, we would usually go for 1-2 walks a day and spend most of our time playing in the back garden or driving around with her head out the window. At night we would sit and cuddle together while watching TV and then she would sleep in her bed overnight.
“I was totally satisfied with the way Daniel looked after Poppy last week. The photos and comments he sent me were very comforting and she was not in the huff with me when I picked her up which has happened before!”
“Danielle was an exceptional host for Teddy. Her home is clean, warm, and inviting. Teddy took to this space straight away on his first visit and I felt comfortable leaving him in Danielle's capable hands. I received regular and prompt updates about Teddy during his visit and this was most helpful. I would recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a loving place for their dog to stay whilst they are away.”
“Wonderful care for Alfie, my dog. He came home happy, well exercised and relaxed. Sabrina kept me up to date with regular pictures of Alfie having a fun time: walking, sleeping and playing. He had a great time and hopefully will be returning as a boarder again.”
“Maggie looked after our very excitable 7 month puppy for a long weekend. She was excellent with him and he came back a happy boy. Great contact and updates throughout his stay which was appreciated after only having him a few weeks ourselves. Would highly recommend.”
About: 10 years owning dogs, I’m very good at training and looking after them. My Milo has cancer and has been strong for 3 years now after they said he has days. Tyson the terrier has epilepsy. I’ve looked after my aunties dog before (Staffordshire) so very experienced and yet to meet a dog who doesn’t like me :) I live right by the beach with fields and parks surrounding. Milo has two long walks a day, a short one and a garden trip (big enclosed communal garden) at a minimum. So your lovely dog will get the same! Walks, lots of snuggles and the appropriate amount of treats if allowed! I care for me dog better than I do myself and I’ll extend this to any other dog under my responsibility.
“Tari looked after my old wee Maltese dog. Was my first time booking a dog sitter so was very nervous but she was very accommodating and sent photo updates all day. Made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Would strongly recommend her <3”
