Will definitely book again and highly recommend Katy and Chris for your furry friends :)

Amy was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog, Evie. She has a sweet disposition and was able to gain Evie’s trust quickly. Her two dogs have a very chill vibe and her house was perfectly set up to afford Evie a wonderful experience, from a fenced-in yard to comfy dog furniture— though Evie loved snuggling on the couch. Amy provided pictures and a text update every day so we always knew that Evie was doing well. I highly recommend Amy’s services as a pet sitter.

About: I have recently started a new job and keen to kick start this account again😊 I have had dogs my whole life, starting with labradors and now border terriers. I am a young, fit individual who loves going on walks and spending time with dogs. My own dog Teddy has epilepsy so I am able to manage dogs with medical conditions well. I have access to a car and can drive to any appointments🚘 Please don’t hesitate to message any questions. I currently work full time through a shift schedule. However I often have spare time on my hands during days off on which I would love to go a walk or help out other dog owners. When in someone else’s home I will respect any instructions given to me. I I can bring my own dog on walks (if wanted) to keep company.

Our 8yo Cockapoo had a ball staying with Joanna. Her stay there was everything that you would want for your dog. Staying in a family home in the country with excellent walks around the area. Joanna was very switched on to the habits and routines of my dog and I was confident that I was leaving her in good hands. Joanna was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times.

George thoughtfully came to visit Bosco and I, prebooking, which immediately put my mind at rest. I was very anxious about leaving Bosco with someone I didn’t really know, as he’s old and has specific needs. George is a star. Gentle, sensitive, communicative, and reliable and there was no trace of his having been. I would definitely recommend him and obviously rebook with him.

About: Having grown up on a farm, I'm lucky enough to have looked after animals of all shapes and sizes. In addition to my own lovely old Jack Russell I have a small holding which has approx 20 acres of deer fenced land where dogs can scamper about with out worry of getting out. I am dog first aid qualified, fully licenced and insured and here waiting for your dog to join us for their holiday while you enjoy yours! I work part time so only board dogs when I am off and free to give them plenty of walks and attention! When I'm home , I'm always out and about either walking my own dog or up at the fields tending to my other animals. I'm very flexible and easy going when it comes to caring for your dog. Furniture, beds, or crates...whatever they are used to they will get. All I ask in return is a house trained, fully vaccinated friendly dog who will be happy to share our space and get along with my very friendly old Jack Russell. Prior to overnight visits we do require a trial session, either a day or overnight stay to ensure your dog is going to be happy and settled with us.

About: Iv grown up with dogs ...i now breed them..I've got 3 golden retrievers , who i adore. They go walks 3 times a day, have a large garden to play in, although they have ruined my nice garden, with big holes 🙂 they all get along, i even have a cat , and he gets on with dogs. I only work 2 evenings a week, Friday and sunday 6 till 10pm. But if this takes off , i can quit my job, and put my all into pets. I have a large garden which is fenced off. I also have plenty of toys treats etc . I have a stair gate blocking off the kitchen, from the living room, so if needed i can separate the dogs if needed, and keep them calm.

About: I have always grown up with animals in the house, particularly dogs. They're a part of the family. I qualified as a veterinary surgeon in 1997 and currently work as a veterinary acupuncturist. I worked in small animal practice for many years so animals and in particular dogs have, and always will be a very big part of me and my life. Due to family commitments I am unable to commit to the responsibility of a dog full time right now but I have lots of free time every day to care for your pet and enjoy walking in any weather. There are many varied walks available nearby from grassland to woods to beaches. Every pet that stays or visits will benefit from enrichment to their environment which includes scatter feeding, lickimats and sniff-aris (to name a few!) I can provide a variety of services depending on your needs - dog boarding, doggy day care, dog walking and drop in visits. I also provide care for cats and small furries. New owner/pet bookings will benefit from £15 off their first booking by clicking on this direct profile link https://www.rover.com/sit/kirsth40895 and entering the promotional code KIRSTH40895. I look forward to meeting you and your pets :) I currently work part time and have plenty of free time to offer professional individually tailored care for your pets. I offer small animal boarding, small animal daycare and dog walking on a daily basis, 7 days a week. I am available to house sit and care for your small animal/s but I am limited to weekends unless by prior arrangement. I am a qualified veterinary surgeon so your pet will be in very safe hands. During your small animal's visit or stay they become part of my family and will be treated as such.
