About: I studied animal care and received an HNC, I have experience looking after different breeds which have different needs from young puppies to senior dogs I love looking after them all equally, giving them any medication they may he on is no problem and having experience with nervous and dog aggressive dogs I'm more than comfortable with. I'm not currently working at the moment and I hope to be looking after animals full time so that means I will be there for the animals 24/7. I will be with your pets for the entirety of my time with them keeping them company and giving plenty love and attention, I don't have a garden but have a huge park right outside my flat they they will have plenty long walks around.
“Alfie had a great couple of days with Kim. At first he was a little nervous and had a little toilet accident (he gets like that when nervous) but Kim called me straight away to let me know she had to bath him etc and to make sure he was ok, he settled in nicely after. Was giving plenty cuddles and kisses. I would 1000000% recommend Kim to anyone. She is so nice and gives you little updates throughout the day. Alfie had a great time. She took them to the dog park the next morning, he loves it there. Also kept him an extra night as something popped up, was at such short notice too. Thanks again, appreciate it so much ❤️”
“Michelle looked after our Lhasa Apso, Benji for 3 weeks whilst we were on our honeymoon . We’ve never left him for that long before and we were nervous to say the least. From the moment we started speaking to Michelle, before drop off, Michelle was so lovely. Benji was very well looked after and this made us feel a lot better. we received lots of updates throughout his stay, which relaxed us more…We won’t hesitate to book Michelle again, highly recommend!”
“Marvin had a lovely time with Mo and Rory. We could tell by how excited he was to be dropped off. They are great at meeting his needs and keeping up updated. Thank you x”
“This was Roccos 2nd time staying with Luis and all I can say he was amazing taking care of my dog, I’m a very anxious dog parent and hate leaving Rocco but my anxiety was totally at ease, Luis gave daily updates and photos and it proves he knew rocco really well. We have already booked Luis for a 3rd time as he has been amazing.”
“Elizabeth was amazing and Bonnie thought so too. Very accommodating, thoughtful and great communication. Would highly recommend and will definitely leave Bonnie in her care in the future ☺️”
About: Not had my own dogs before but have looked after friends previously. Happy to do multiple big walks a day as required and even runs if they like that! I currently work doing workshops in schools which is mostly term time and during the day. Some days there isn’t any work in a school and just working from home one or two days a week I have a large grassy garden for a pet to run around in which is secure. My fiancé and I also regularly take walks in the week and larger walks on the weekend and do love to hike so if your pet enjoys big long walks we can happily get them bagging some munros!
“Sawmya and her husband looked after my boy Ralph for 2 nights and they were both amazing with him he was so calm and content when we picked him up we would definitely use yous again and would highly recommend you to people”
“We were absolutely delighted with Angela looking after Freddy for us. This was our first time having him stay in a house with other resident dogs but because her two border collies were so calm and well behaved, we had every faith they would welcome Freddy into their home. Freddy had lengthy walks every day, he was great off the lead and got plenty of cuddles from all the family. Every photo showed him as happy as Larry. Another dog who was staying with them became Freddy’s best buddy! We were able to enjoy our holiday knowing our furry boy was having the time of his life. Thank you Angela and family for looking after our boy!”
“I used Spohie for a long weekend. She put me at ease straight away with her friendly approach. Woody was clearly well looked after and happy with her. I would recommend and would use her again.”
“Moya is a lovely lady and clearly very fond of dogs. We would have no hesitation in recommending Moya to other pet owners. Communication was great from the start. Our dog was well looked after and was calm and relaxed when we collected her. A 100% positive experience.”

“Fester had a lovely stay with Adele, she took exceptional care of him and accepted all of his special quirks and needs. As an older dog he is quite particular and she accommodated everything perfectly. Fester came home happy, bouncy and rested - we will definitely be using Adele again for Fester sitting!”
“Jacqueline was great with our dog - he was very comfortable and settled in well for it being his first time away from family. Would definitely recommend her for your pup 🐶. Thanks again!🥰”

Would 100% recommend Megan to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Katie looking after our dog, Albert. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he wasn't just being "watched"—he was being welcomed into a home and treated like family.”
“I was nervous to leave Bea with strangers.. especially because she's such an anxious wee thing. I shouldn't have worried though. Alexandra and her partner were absolutely wonderful. They kept me constantly updated and I could see through the picture and video messages that Bea had settled and was happy to be on her holidays...I actually think she was sad to come home! I wouldn't hesitate to use Alexandra again. Thanks so much for taking such good care of my wee girl!”

“Kimberley was outstanding from start to finish! She went above and beyond her role to help me! She sent lovely photos of my cats and came to meet them beforehand. She even put my bin out and tidied a bit of the garden!! I have found my “cat lady” and would recommend her to ANYONE!!! She took the beat care of my wee cats and allowed me to enjoy my holiday Xx”
“Very communicative and accommodating. They did everything they said they would with updates. So very glad I found them on Rover and absolutely would not hesitate to use them again. Thankyou again to the both of you .”
“Absolutely wonderful visits from Nicola. From the 1st meeting she took time to get to know our cats (and dog!) Once we were away, she was superb with communication, brilliant and hilarious video updates. House was immaculate and most importantly, the cats were super happy when we got home. Would 💯 recommend. Such a thoughtful and kind person. Our cats loved her! 😍”
“Hannah was really lovely and was able to accommodate us fairly last minute over Christmas. She sent updates and photos and looked after our two cats really well. They seemed very happy and contented when we returned home.”
“There is no praise high enough to give Rachel. She visited first so our 2 girl Ragdolls could meet her and they took to her straight away. This surprised us as our 1 year old is very timed and is hard to bring round. Chiko was taking treats from her within minutes. Our 8 month old Tiana was lying like a baby in Rachel's arms in no time. Rachel sent photos and videos every day and gave us updates which we were desperate for as it was our first time leaving them. She made sure to put us at ease by keeping in touch and answering our messages quickly. We found Rachel to be organised, professional, reliable, friendly and easy to interact with. The most important thing is our cats loved her and were happy to be with her and play. Rachel has exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend her. We will definitely be asking Rachel to look after Chiko & Tiana whenever we're away.”
“Olivia followed instructions amazing and took care of our precious cat Willow. Olivia changed times to suit the cat and even thought to leave food out! when she wouldn’t return one day! (Totally normal for cats in summer) I would recommend Olivia in future and would definitely use her services again.”
“Leah is lovely and sent us updates and photos every day. Our boys got regular food, playtime and cuddles while we were away, so we came home to a pair of well-fed, happy cats! Would very much recommend Leah to other cat owners.”
About: Hi, I’m Jess, a warm and caring cat lover with lifelong experience. I have 3 cats of my own, Cole, Jones and Otis. I can give medications if your fur baby requires. I also have experience caring for senior cats, our very own Molly got to the fantastic age of 21. I love relaxing and playing with cats and making them feel safe and happy.
About: I had a cat when I was younger, and I have taken care of my mother-in-law's cat for the past five years when they go on holiday. The last time they went away for a month, I looked after it. I love cats, and I get on well with them. I am able to understand their needs and wants.
“Aleksandra did a great job looking after Autumn. She followed all the instructions I left her and posted very regular updates, leaving me at ease knowing my cat is well cared after and happy! ”
About: I've cared for cats and a variety of pets all my life. I completed my animal care qualification and also worked in a vets, giving me the knowledge to handle most situations calmly and confidently. I have 2 dogs of my own and regularly pet sit for neighbours, family and friends. I'm caring, compassionate and reliable, your cat will be treated exactly like one of my own.
“Niamh was simply excellent. We left our two baby kittens whilst we were away. It’s fair to say we were extremely nervous. Niamh went above and beyond and treated our boys like her own. She visited 3x a day and sent daily updates, she even stayed longer beyond what we asked for. Niamh you are a superstar! and we will be booking again! ”
About: I have sat for my friends cats for many years. One friend had two adult cats, one of which had two litters. I helped foster all kittens from both litters until they were old enough to be adopted. This included feeding, playing, ensuring they were socialised among other cats and children, getting exercise, and taking care of them while poorly. If you have smaller pets such as hamsters, fish, etc. I can drop in to feed them. I have a few years experience taking care of my own guinea pigs.
About: I’ve always had cats including a kitten we rescued from my garden- Theo and then my cat I still have now- Florence who is 15 and looking fabulous. I’ve also taken care of cats for friends and family whilst they are away on holiday.
“Met Holly a couple of times before I went away. My cat Harry loved her straight away, which was very reassuring. When I got home Harry was happy, calm, and within 15 mins it was as if I'd never been away. I'll be booking Holly again. ”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I have been a dog lover since before I could walk. I have been around dogs all my life. I have experience with all sorts of dogs be it small or large, puppy or senior dog each dog has its own personality which I enjoy getting to know and understand. I run a one on one dog boarding service from my home so your pet have all they're creatures comforts they are used to. I run a fully insured one on one dog boarding service from my home so I am always available for your pets and any of they're needs I don't have a garden but I live right next to a dog park 4 metres from my home which is great for walkies and fun
“Monika is fantastic! We had a last minute request to have our puppy need day care and she was so amazing to be able to take him. She sent me loads of updates and was excellent at helping to start socialising him with other dogs. Even picking him he was acting like he wanted to stay. Thank you again!”
“Moira & Rory regularly look after our Cavapoo Lenny and we are so happy and thankful to have met them. We moved our little dog with us when we moved to Scotland and it was so important that we found someone who we could trust. Lenny absolutely adores Moira & Rory and it is considered his second home. He skips straight in the door and we know he’s in great care. We get regular updates and know that both Moira & Rory love our little guy just as much as we do and we can trust them completely. Couldn’t recommend them more!”
About: I am well experienced in dog sitting, boarding, drop ins, and walking, having done this type of work since a young age, but more consistently in the last four years. I have also had the privilege of dog & house sitting for THS in various locations from London to South Carolina USA. I have extensive experience with rescue dogs who suffer with behavioural issues like resource guarding, aggression and reactivity. I have been on the receiving end of that “I just need a break” feeling and would love to use my skills and knowledge to help other dog owners who perhaps are in a similar situation. Don’t ever worry about this being an “issue”. Having so much experience with high prey drive dogs in the past I am also confident fitting muzzles, or continuing any ongoing muzzle training where required with a positive reinforcement approach. If your dog is pretty chill, lazy, placid or easy going- great! I’m open to help care for any dog regardless of their temperament, energy levels, training requirements, etc. I am very big on dog training, so more than happy to incorporate what I know into my appointments, and/or continue with any training owners currently have, for example, loose leash walking, cooperative care, impulse control, obedience and recall. Dogs love predictability & structure and this is very important for their nervous systems. I’m happy to help integrate with your dogs routine where possible! Boarding in my home: I have a fenced, fully secure back garden that any dog in my care will have access to. The kitchen looks out on to the garden, so I can keep a close eye on your fur baby at all times. If a dog is in my care they will never just be left alone to find their own fun- always in my line of sight and properly watched after. I also have a crate for anyone who would prefer their dogs to maintain their crate training routine. This can be especially helpful for any dogs who have a tendency to be destructive or pick up and eat things they shouldn’t around the house, which can pose potential safety concerns. I have a comprehensive understanding of dog body language, able to confidently tell if they are communicating signals of happiness, stress, excitement and warnings.
“Kyle was fabulous with Darcy as always and kept me updated how she was all day, this was reassuring as we were at my mother in laws funeral. I am never worried when he has Darcy as I know she is well looked after. Thanks Kyle see you soon no doubt 👍😉”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 4, so caring for them has always been second nature. Over the years I’ve looked after everything from King Charles Spaniels, Pugs, Boxers and Dogue de Bordeauxs, so I’m comfortable with all sizes, personalities and quirks. Most recently I had a pug named Dilbo for 16 years, who was completely part of the family. I still miss the little things like his tip tap paws on the floor and his very loud snoring and farting, so I know how much dogs mean to their owners and how important it is to feel they’re in safe hands. Friends, family and neighbours have always relied on me to help with their pets, and my brother also dog sits, so it’s definitely in the family. Since my pug passed, I’ve really missed having a dog around, which is why I genuinely love spending time with others. I have a large secure garden and lots of great parks nearby, so your dog will get plenty of attention, exercise and proper care while they’re with me. I also run a little Instagram called The Barkchives where, I like to document the pooches I meet along the way x I have plenty of time to give your dog proper attention, walks and care throughout the day. Your dog won’t be left on their own while they are boarding with me and will get lots of company, affection and routine. And expect plenty pics of your pooch to ensure your peace of mind. Your dog’s safety and comfort is my priority, trusting someone to look after a family member isn't to be sniffed at! I have a large, secure fenced garden for safe outdoor time, and I always keep dogs on a lead when out on walks. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs and routines, and I’ll make sure they feel settled, cared for and relaxed while they’re with me, whether that’s playtime, walks or just a calm space to rest.
About: I have lots of experience dog sitting many types of breeds of all shapes and sizes! I board and dog sit frequently for friends and family and have growing experience with lovely Rover clients. I also have vast hands-on experience caring for my own much-loved dachshund, Nelly, who has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each dog’s individual personality and needs! Raising her has given me practical experience with daily care, exercise, feeding routines, and providing a safe, loving environment for my girl! I have a genuine passion for dogs and enjoy spending time outdoors, nature walks and exploring new places together. I’m also happy taking dogs on safe car journeys when needed. My priority is ensuring every dog in my care feels happy, comfortable, and treated as if they were part of my own family. I understand that every dog deserves plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away just as I like whilst I am away. My dachshund will be present unless specifically requested for during booking but she is friendly and loves to play. I have experience in issuing daily medication and monitoring dogs behaviour, diet and intake. I encourage owners to bring their dog beds for comfort during sitting in my home but dogs are all welcome on our sofas with lots of cuddles 🛋️🛌🐾 I am a current primary teacher in Glasgow. During my school holidays I love to dog-board, sit and walk! I love all things animals and walking. I treat dogs as my own, and a part of our family. I have a friendly and welcoming mini dachshund at home in our flat and a garden downstairs. All dogs welcome in our home - even on our sofa! If you are looking someone trustworthy and caring for your little one, please reach out!
“Allan looked after Barney for the day to see how he settled, and I couldn’t have asked for more. Barney is a very nervous and shy boy, but Allan was patient and understanding throughout. He kept me updated with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and look forward to Barney staying with him again.”
“Konstantina has been great start to finish when it came to booking our dog Alvin for a Day Care. She put us completely at ease when we introduced Alvin to Nala as she obviously really loves and cares for her. She was also very responsive to messages and happy to adjust to our schedule. Alvin seemed to have a blast staying with her and the pictures/videos she sent us are absolutely adorable! We will definitely book Alvin with Konstantina in the future :)”
About: I’m a proud dog mum to Rosie, my friendly 3-year-old Cavapoo, who loves the company of other dogs and gets along well with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I regularly care for dogs in my home and understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment while owners are away. I have a spacious three-bedroom home with a secure, fully fenced garden, as well as plenty of beautiful local walks nearby to keep your dog happy, active, and well cared for. Your dog will be treated as part of the family and receive lots of attention, affection, and exercise during their stay. Dogs are allowed on all furniture and we have no children in our home. It tends to just be myself at home as my partner works offshore. Dog care fits naturally into my daily routine as I work from home full-time and manage my own diary, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attention, companionship, walks, and toilet breaks throughout the day. My partner works away regularly, so it’s usually just me and my friendly Cavapoo, Rosie, at home. Rosie loves having canine company and enjoys playing in our secure garden as well as exploring the many lovely local walks nearby. This means your dog will never be left alone and will be treated as part of our family during their stay I have a secure, fully fenced garden and a very dog-friendly home where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable. I have experience caring for puppies as young as 14 weeks old, as well as adult dogs of different breeds and personalities. My home is calm, safe, and welcoming, with no children or other pets apart from my Cavapoo Rosie. I always aim to provide a loving environment where dogs feel settled, secure, and part of the family.
About: 30£ OFF YOUR FIRST BOOKING WITH ME alexas04593 ❤️ Welcome to my cozy pet haven in Wishaw, Scotland 💙🤍 💚Work from home 💚Only one dog (or dogs from the same household) per stay 💚NO CATS 💚NO OTHER PETS 💚NO KIDS A peaceful, nature-filled home where your pups can relax, play, and enjoy their holiday I am 29years old and I’ve always been a huge dog lover. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities – especially the fun, energetic types who love being outside, playing, and getting plenty of love. I’ve had 5 dogs of my own in the past, and now my boyfriend and I live in a lovely, pet-safe home with a private garden – perfect for zoomies or a sunny snooze.❤️ Alongside pet-sitting, I also support an online dog shelter, helping dogs find loving homes and raising awareness for adoption. Giving back to the dog community is something that really matters to me, and it’s another reason I treat every dog I look after like family. Our neighbourhood is quiet, green, and super pet-friendly, with plenty of open spaces, trails, and quiet roads for long walks. I genuinely enjoy being out and about, so your pup will have lots of opportunities to walk and sniff.❤️ I am working from home, so your dog will always have company. They’ll never be left alone – just cuddles, naps, playtime, and care all day long. I also understand how important it is to stay connected with your pet while you’re away, so I’ll send plenty of photos and videos to keep you updated. We live in a spacious two-bedroom house with soft carpets and a garden, but I also love going out for walks and discovering new spots nearby. There’s so much greenery here – your pup will love it. Honestly, your dog will be having their own little holiday while you’re away – lots of love, activity, and snuggles in a calm, loving home.
About: I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I’ve always loved animals, which led me to study and work in animal welfare. I hold a degree in Animal Science and an HND in Animal Care, giving me a strong understanding of animal health, behaviour, and wellbeing. I also have over a year of hands-on experience in an animal welfare/rescue role, where I cared for animals in a wide range of situations. This helped me build confidence in handling, behaviour assessment, and providing the right care for different needs. Alongside this, I’ve volunteered in veterinary practices, gaining experience with different breeds, temperaments, and medical needs. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and currently have two dogs of my own, a Labrador called Oakley and a miniature dachshund called Lilly. Oakley came from a puppy farm, so I’ve gained a lot of real-life experience working with a more sensitive, high-energy dog. Over the past couple of years, I’ve worked with behaviourists, which has helped me better understand dog behaviour, body language, and how to keep dogs calm, settled, and comfortable. I’m also experienced in administering medication. Growing up, my family dog had diabetes and Cushing’s disease, and I was responsible for daily medication, including insulin injections. I have experience with a wide range of animals including small furries, reptiles and amphibians, birds of prey, poultry, livestock, UK wildlife and some exotics. I’m passionate about enrichment and believe it’s key to a dog’s wellbeing. I aim to provide a good balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and interaction whether that’s walks, playtime, training, or puzzle-based activities. I took my dog to some scent work classes to get his brain going and to use his natural instincts for mental stimulation. Due to the experience I have, I’m confident caring for pets with a wide range of needs. Whether your pet is energetic, more sensitive, requires medication, or just loves a cuddle, I’ll always tailor my care to suit them. I know how important it is to stay connected with your pet while you’re away, so I provide regular updates with photos and messages for peace of mind - and to show your pet enjoying their holiday just as much as you are. I’m always happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so we can get to know each other, go over your pet’s routine, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. I am first aid trained through my previous studies at level 8, however I keep this up to date by attending CPD training days to keep my skill set up to date as a refresher. Your pet will be in the best of care at all times😊 I currently work full-time Monday to Friday, but I have a flexible schedule and can plan my own workload, allowing me to accommodate pet care where needed. I can be a little busier during the spring and summer months - I sometimes work away up to 12 days at a time, however I am quieter in the winter. I will always do my best to try and fit you in. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch - I’d love to help 🙂 Dog Boarding; Your dog will be welcomed into a loving, family style home where they’ll feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. There are 2 cats that live here and 2 dogs of my own, however they will be kept separate from your pet during their stay to ensure everyone feels relaxed and secure. There are doors on every room and extra tall baby gates on the key rooms where your dogs and my ow pets will be staying - therefore a more secure set-up to prevent escapes and/ or any animals coming in to contact with each other. There are no young children in the home, and I have a secure outdoor garden with two 6-foot fences and two lockable gates. There is also a local roam-free park just 5 minutes away, where your dog(s) can enjoy off-lead exercise, as well as relaxed on-lead walks. A meet and greet will always be arranged beforehand, and I’m happy to offer collection and drop-off for your convenience, so your dog can enjoy their own little holiday too. Your dog will never be left alone (unless previously agreed) and will be part of the daily home routine, receiving plenty of attention, affection, and care. I tailor each stay to your dog’s individual personality and needs, whether that means lots of playtime, cuddles, or enjoyable walks. I provide exclusive 1-to-1 care, meaning your pet will be the only animal(s) from an outside household in my care at any one time. This ensures consistent supervision, attention, and comfort during their stay. My goal is to make your dog feel completely at home while giving you full peace of mind that they’re in a safe and caring environment. Unfortunately, I don’t offer home visits. I live in an upstairs flat with a shared outdoor stairway and pathway, and out of respect for my downstairs neighbours’ privacy I don’t have owners visit the property. I really appreciate your understanding. I’m hoping to move within the next 1–2 years, and once I do I’d be more than happy to welcome owners to visit beforehand. Instead, I send photos of both my home and the secure garden areas, along with a copy of my dog boarding licence, so you can see exactly where your dog will be staying. Inside, your dog would rarely be left alone and would sleep in the same room as me at night. I have a raised dog bed with a soft mattress, although dogs are also welcome on the furniture both indoors and outside if that’s what they’re used to at home. House Sitting; When house sitting, I care for your dog(s) or cat(s) in the comfort of their own home, helping them feel relaxed and secure in their familiar surroundings. They will receive the same level of care and attention as they would when boarding with me. My overnight house sitting rate covers up to 12 hours of care. Any additional time outside of this is classed as extended daytime care and will be charged accordingly. I am happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any specific requirements to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning bowls, walks and/or garden time, administering medication if required, plenty of play and affection. For safety, dogs are kept on a lead during walks unless in a secure, designated roam-free area. Off-lead walking may be considered once trust and a relationship have been built, or if your dog has reliable recall. I will keep you regularly updated with messages, photos, and videos, so you can feel reassured while your pet is in my care. I’m also happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand to ensure both you and your pet feel completely comfortable. The rate shown on my profile for house sitting is for the overnight service. If you wish for your pets to be cared for in your own home (daycare / night care but in your own home) - this can be booked under ‘house sitting’. I offer a separate rate for this service which can be adjusted after you send the request through. Overnight house sitting includes standard care with the ability to leave for short periods. Pets needing full-time supervision are very welcome. For bookings outside my local area or requiring travel over a certain amount of time, a small travel fee may apply to cover time and transport. Pet collection/drop-off can also be arranged - please message to discuss. Dog walking; I’m always happy to help where I can! My availability can vary during the spring and summer months due to occasional work commitments away from home. If you get in touch, I’m happy to share my upcoming availability and see how I can fit around your needs. During autumn and winter, I’m generally much more consistent and available for regular bookings. In spring and summer, I’m best suited for occasional, short-term, or emergency dog walking requests. Where key handovers are needed (Drop-in Visits etc), keys provided during the meet & greet, via lockbox, or posted through the letterbox after the service has been completed is free of charge. If separate trips are required for key collection or return, a small fee may apply to cover additional travel time. Any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch 🐾

About: I have had pets for my whole life. From when I lived on a farm as a toddler to dog sitting for friends and family in more recent years as I have semi retired. I have experience in all aspects of dog and cat care and training. I am now retired and can be available for week day and weekends for boarding and walking etc. I work with owners and their needs. Very much this will be by taking the lead of the owners. What they want for their pets and the specific needs of any one animal trusted to my care.
About: I have taken care of dogs for family and friends for years! I’m a reliable and caring dog lover based between Glasgow and Edinburgh. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own.

About: I have had previous experiences training a family friend’s cocker spaniel puppy as well as taking them on walks. Within the past year I have also spent a lot of time with my partner’s border collie who I have happily walked and taken care of when needed. I am a full time medical student at university but I love to decompress with animals to get away from it. I am available for dog walking and pet sitting on weekends! I make sure to understand boundaries of each animal, and tailor my care to what they need. I make sure they are comfortable and healthy first of all, and of course partake in their favourite activities like playing and walking - or even just cuddling on the couch.
About: I've always loved animals- I used to walk neighbours dogs when I was a child but was never allowed one so when I was an adult I finally got two dogs of my own who are my entire world. I run multiple businesses but they are doing well so I now have some extra time on my hands so would love to spend it around animals. I know how difficult it is to trust someone to care for your animals the way you do. DBS checked. I'm currently really flexible as I run my own businesses from a laptop. I can work around any schedule your pet needs (mornings, lunchtimes, evenings and weekends). I am DBS checked (having done some voluntary work with the elderly previously) and am happy to have some free meet and greets before undertaking any pet care- I completely understand you need to be sure I am the right person to take care of your pet.
About: I have experience looking after dogs for friends and family, where I’ve been responsible for walking, feeding, and maintaining their usual routine. I take a patient and attentive approach to ensure each dog feels comfortable and well cared for I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pet. I am available in weekdays for your pet . I have a house with more space and glazed garden with a fence so I can assure your pet’s safety and. Also I have very supportive family and who loves pets and I can make sure your pet will have enough love and caring from everyone
About: All though I don’t have any pets at the moments I’v have a few dogs over the years. Iv watched friends and family’s dogs when they’ve been on holiday and always love a dogs company. As a full time worker my availability would be flexible for walks. But my partner works opposite shifts so if I was boarding a dog then there would be some one at home with the dog most of the time. I know just how different all dogs are and like different things. I will adjust to there needs to give them the best possible care that I can. I have a fully fenced secure back garden, but I would never leave your dog unattended in it as I never did with my own.
About: I’ve owned a west highland terrier for 11 years, I’ve trained her since she was a pup! I have also taken care of my step mums dogs too she has two small dogs, they absolutely love my scratches and get excited to see me every time. I’ve been told I’m a dog whisperer as doggies absolutely love me and I’m always the one at gathering in the corner with the dog. I love walking and do so daily and I love having a wee companion with me. I’m good with anxious dogs as I’ve helped a few dogs that have dealt with anxiety over the years. My little dog has had many illnesses and has allergies so I’m good with giving dogs medicine and helping with any problems and giving baths or helping with skin allergies, my dog also suffers from inflammatory bowel disease so I’m no stranger to upset tummies either. I currently work part time on the weekends and I’m currently studying at university but I am only in three days and only for a few hours or do online work so I would be able to fit dog walking or pet sitting into my schedule easily, I’m able to look after dogs or walk them at night on the weekends too if needed. I don’t currently offer pet sitting in my house but I do have my own dog that if your dog likes company I can bring in walks!
“My little doggy absolutely loved Maia. She was such a great help as I needed to book last minute and it was no problem. She was so friendly, communicative, and kept me updated the whole time with photos and videos which I really appreciated. It was so nice seeing how happy my dog was while out on the walk. My dog also made a new friend with Maia’s dog which was adorable, and it’s clear he absolutely loved Maia. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with Maia again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker!🩷🩷🩷”
About: I am well experienced in dog sitting, boarding, drop ins, and walking, having done this type of work since a young age, but more consistently in the last four years. I have also had the privilege of dog & house sitting for THS in various locations from London to South Carolina USA. I have extensive experience with rescue dogs who suffer with behavioural issues like resource guarding, aggression and reactivity. I have been on the receiving end of that “I just need a break” feeling and would love to use my skills and knowledge to help other dog owners who perhaps are in a similar situation. Don’t ever worry about this being an “issue”. Having so much experience with high prey drive dogs in the past I am also confident fitting muzzles, or continuing any ongoing muzzle training where required with a positive reinforcement approach. If your dog is pretty chill, lazy, placid or easy going- great! I’m open to help care for any dog regardless of their temperament, energy levels, training requirements, etc. I am very big on dog training, so more than happy to incorporate what I know into my appointments, and/or continue with any training owners currently have, for example, loose leash walking, cooperative care, impulse control, obedience and recall. Dogs love predictability & structure and this is very important for their nervous systems. I’m happy to help integrate with your dogs routine where possible! Boarding in my home: I have a fenced, fully secure back garden that any dog in my care will have access to. The kitchen looks out on to the garden, so I can keep a close eye on your fur baby at all times. If a dog is in my care they will never just be left alone to find their own fun- always in my line of sight and properly watched after. I also have a crate for anyone who would prefer their dogs to maintain their crate training routine. This can be especially helpful for any dogs who have a tendency to be destructive or pick up and eat things they shouldn’t around the house, which can pose potential safety concerns. I have a comprehensive understanding of dog body language, able to confidently tell if they are communicating signals of happiness, stress, excitement and warnings.
“Bracken adores Holly since their first meet and loves his weekly walks. Holly keeps us informed on their activities while together and is always flexible around timings. Would recommend Holly to anyone looking for a dog walker in the area.”
About: I have had pets throughout my life and they are a huge part of my family. I live alone with a dog (5 years old) and cat (15 years old), so I know how important it is for them to be well looked after if you’re unable to. I often pet sit for family and friends and I’ve really enjoyed doing this over the years. I work four days a week and commit to helping Wednesday at any time and then I work flexibly and so can support other days as well. I have my own cat and dog so cannot stay at other people’s houses however I am happy to check in or take dogs out for a good walk. During weekends I am available all day and can support to ensure that your pets are well looked after if you’re unable to. I am a strong believer in treating my animals with love and affection whilst ensuring they are properly trained. They are my family and I know how important it is to know they are being well looked after if you’re unable to.

About: I’ve walked dogs for over 5+ years from friends to neighbours dogs. No dog is the same, message me to discuss your dogs needs today! I work from home and I am available in the area on the weekends too. Message me for availability and I can see what I can do for you. I’ve a 6ft fence around my property. I always walk dogs on their leads, and short lead in busy and crowded areas. I have experience in teaching dogs how to walk properly. I walk the dog - the dog doesn’t walk me!
About: Since I was little I’ve had a deep love for all animals. No matter the species or breed their presence makes me calm and fills me with joy. I’m a very caring individual with a deep love of nature. I have a beautiful cat who is 13 and I rescued Bertie two years ago. He is a German spitz mix. I trained Bertie myself and he comes on walks regularly with me. If your dog prefers a solo walk, that’s absolutely fine! From the tiniest pup to old English sheepdogs I’ve looked after them all. I am very understanding and like to get to know each animal I care for. All animals are different and have a routine that really helps with their anxiety, behaviour and well being. I take the time to understand their needs and make sure they are happy and content. To me, there is no greater joy than seeing an animal or child happy. Thank you for taking the time to Look at my page. I work from home however, I am looking to start a pet sitting/dog walking business in September 2026. I am available for toilet breaks Monday to Sunday and am happy to take a dog that is anxious to be left on its own into our home. I appreciate some dogs can get distressed when left and that is something I can assist with. If your dog is a male and has not been neutered, I’m afraid this would not be possible due to my male dog. I am available in the evenings for walking your friend and at the weekends I am available for day care, walks and home stays. All questions welcome. I find out firstly the owners needs and make sure I follow their guidance. This is very important to me as you are trusting me to support you in caring for your family member. During toilet break visits I always spend time with the cat or dog as I don’t like to leave them unless the owner wishes. This is just to bond with them and give them some company before leaving. When dogs are in my home or staying I make sure that the dogs routine is similar to their home comforts. My children are around dogs daily and adore them. They are gentle, caring and understand boundaries. I provide updates, pictures and video calls for anyone who would like to check in with their beloved pooch. My garden has seven foot high fencing which is secure. No puppers have escaped which is reassuring and allows me to let them explore the garden if they like being outside. Lastly and most importantly I will love your dog or cat like they are my own. Cuddles, snuggles, attention, walks, reassurance and the occasional sing song!
About: I have been a dog lover since before I could walk. I have been around dogs all my life.

“Alfie had a great couple of days with Kim. At first he was a little nervous and had a little toilet accident (he gets like that when nervous) but Kim called me straight away to let me know she had to bath him etc and to make sure he was ok, he settled in nicely after. Was giving plenty cuddles and kisses. I would 1000000% recommend Kim to anyone. She is so nice and gives you little updates throughout the day. Alfie had a great time. She took them to the dog park the next morning, he loves it there. Also kept him an extra night as something popped up, was at such short notice too. Thanks again, appreciate it so much ❤️”
“This was Roccos 2nd time staying with Luis and all I can say he was amazing taking care of my dog, I’m a very anxious dog parent and hate leaving Rocco but my anxiety was totally at ease, Luis gave daily updates and photos and it proves he knew rocco really well. We have already booked Luis for a 3rd time as he has been amazing.”

“We were absolutely delighted with Angela looking after Freddy for us. This was our first time having him stay in a house with other resident dogs but because her two border collies were so calm and well behaved, we had every faith they would welcome Freddy into their home. Freddy had lengthy walks every day, he was great off the lead and got plenty of cuddles from all the family. Every photo showed him as happy as Larry. Another dog who was staying with them became Freddy’s best buddy! We were able to enjoy our holiday knowing our furry boy was having the time of his life. Thank you Angela and family for looking after our boy!”

“I was nervous to leave Bea with strangers.. especially because she's such an anxious wee thing. I shouldn't have worried though. Alexandra and her partner were absolutely wonderful.

I wouldn't hesitate to use Alexandra again. Thanks so much for taking such good care of my wee girl!”

He was so good with Theo and very patient because Theo can be scared when meeting new people and dogs. But he had the best time with krzysztof and his wife and beautiful dog Cleo. I had total trust that I have rebooked again. So we can go on holiday relax knowing Theo is well looked after and is safe. Can not recommend enough ???”
