“Kirsten was fab with Daisy. We have only had her 8 weeks and so were worried how she would be with someone new. We had pictures of her time with Kirsten and she kept us up to date with how she was doing. Excellent sitter and a lovely person, and wouldn’t hesitate for Daisy to stay with her again.”
“Sophie and Dorian have been a perfect match for Fin! They took care of him so well, Fin is a high energy dog and he had a blast on the adventures. We got regular updates from Sophie as well.”
“Andrew has made the whole process super easy. He is friendly, professional and taken great care of our dog Zepple. So much so that Zepple wasn't in a rush to leave! Very quick with replying to messages and put our minds at ease as our dog can have a little bit of separation anxiety. We also received little photo updates of Zepple's stay which was lovely.”
“Cristina was a lovely host for our boy Monty! She looked after him well and sent lots of photographs to let us see that he was happy and settled. Would definitely use her again for any future holidays 🐾”
“Lottie seemed to enjoy her 3 night stay with Angela, her family & her 2 Border Collies. Communication with Angela was excellent, with prompt responses to messages & daily updates/photos on how Lottie was doing. I felt comfortable leaving Lottie with Angela who was friendly & welcoming and asked appropriate questions. Would highly recommend.”
“Katie was amazing with Clyde, he was looked after the same way as he does at home. He was a very happy boy during his stay, we would definitely recommend Katie to look after anyone’s dog and feel good about it. Clyde is a very happy boy 💙”
“Chris was amazing with my energetic lab Ollie and was really understanding of his temperament and needs. Chris helped us out with a last minute booking after we were let down by kennels right before our holiday. I received lots of pictures whilst we were away so was reassured that my dog was doing well and could see he was very well exercised. Would not hesitate to use Chris again in the future!”
“From the second we met Isobel for the meet and greet she put us at ease. Blaze can be wary with new people. but he went straight to Isobel as if he'd known her all his life. When he went to stay for his holidays, he didn't even bother about us when we left-no whining or backwards glance to us. We received regular updates on how he was settling in and various photos of him out on his walkie adventures which was so nice to see. Blaze ate all his food while he was with Isobel which is testament to how relaxed and comfortable he was in his new environment. He received loads of cuddles and attention too. The only fear we had when going to collect him was that he wouldn't want to leave his new home from home. We would not hesitate to recommend Isobel and will most definitely be using her again.”
“Bruar had a fantastic 8 night stay while we were on holiday. We were a little anxious leaving him so long but there was no need. Alison is great with him and sent us regular updates and pictures. He had a great time and will be back!”
“Found Josephine through this app! She took time to Meet our dog before the booking! During our break she kept in touch and updated us regularly! Dog came home happy, would use Josephine again to watch him”
“Luis was just great. Our puppy had such a good time, he didn't want to leave when we can to pick him up. We got photos and updates and our puppy was clearly very happy. I would recommend Luis as an excellent Puppy/Dog sitter.”
“Lemmy had a great time staying with Elisabetta and her family. Especially with Zoe, their beautiful Weimaraner. Lemmy was a bit wary of her to start with, but by a couple of days later they were sleeping in the same bed! Elisabetta sent me lots of pictures, so I knew that Lemmy was being well looked after. He'll definitely be going back to stay with Elisabetta, and Zoe”
“Roz our schnauzer couldn’t have been happier or better cared for . Lots of updates and photos and Michele even helped with her training. In a nice house in a good location too . I’d happily recommend her.”
“Shauni was amazing throughout our booking and couldn’t have been more attentive and loving to our boy. He came back with the biggest tail wags and most excitement. He can’t wait to see her again🫶🏼”
“Jodie was amazing with my two Frenchies. I was a little nervous leaving them but they loved her! She kept me updated with pics and messages to let me know how they were doing. She was lovely and my babies loved her 🫶🏽”
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs since I was 7 years old, so looking after dogs has always been a big part of my life. I genuinely love spending time with them and making sure they feel happy, safe and comfortable. I also have experience caring for dogs professionally in a work setting as I have been responsible for leading dog walking activities for children and families. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels and needs, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and preferences. Whether your dog loves long walks and playing, or prefers plenty of cuddles and relaxing at home, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they need. I’m responsible, patient and caring, and I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in safe hands, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure they’re well looked after while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I currently have some extra flexibility during the week and I’m available for pet care throughout the day on many weekdays. I’m also available for evening and weekend bookings, which I can continue to offer around my usual working hours. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine wherever possible and can discuss specific days and times to find something that works for both of us. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced garden at home and regularly look after friends’ and family members’ dogs, so I’m used to having dogs in my home and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. I don’t currently have any pets living in my home, so your dog can have my full attention without having to share the space with another resident pet. I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, medication if required, and any other individual needs. When caring for a pet in their own home, I’ll treat their space with the same respect as I would my own and make sure they feel safe, settled and comfortable. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you know they’re happy while you’re away. ❤️🐶
About: I’ve always had multiple dogs growing up, and since moving to Stirling for university (and now graduated) I have looked after many friends and families dogs! I would like to do rover until I can get a dog myself one day soon :) I currently work a rolling rota, where my shifts either finish at 2pm or start at 1:30pm, meaning I can do a mix of afternoon/evenings or morning/mid-day! I live in a quiet flat, with a direct door outside to a decent sized garden. I live next to lots of good walks as well!

“Very happy with Lorna coming to feed our cat Sherbet when I was away. It was lovely to meet her prior to her first cat sitting visits and Sherbet was very happy too. Thank you”
“Justine house sat for us and took care of our cat. I originally didn’t like to go on holiday and leave my cat, but once I found Justine, my mind was at ease and I felt comfortable to leave my cat in her own home with great company and care. Communication was great and I was kept updated with cute photos of khaleesi through the week. There were no issues at all and the stay went very smooth. I’d use Justine again for vet and house sitting any day! The house was just as we left it when we got home after our holiday and our cat was relaxed and content. Very great experience! Thanks Justine!”
“All went well with the visit, lots of lovely photos and Freya seemed well looked after. I really appreciated the good consistent communication even though I wasn’t always able to reply while I was on holiday. Will book again.”
About: I have two years of cat sitting experience, alongside caring for and feeding local stray cats. I provide reliable drop-in visits, feeding, litter care, and gentle play or quiet companionship, ensuring every cat feels safe, comfortable, and well-cared for.
“Izzi was absolutely brilliant looking after our cat Simba while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Simba can be quite shy and wary of new people, but Izzi was incredibly patient with her and clearly took the time to understand her personality and let her come round at her own pace. It was lovely to see Simba gradually becoming more comfortable and affectionate with her — by the end, Izzi had definitely won her over! Izzi kept us updated throughout, was thoughtful and attentive, and went above and beyond, even helping us out with a parcel while we were away. We felt completely reassured knowing Simba was in such kind and capable hands. Izzi clearly genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and that really came across in all our conversations. We would have absolutely no hesitation in asking her to look after Simba again and would recommend her very highly to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Izzi!”
About: From my 6 years experience of caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs, I’ve learned how to create a calm, loving, and structured environment where your dog will feel safe and understood. I work from home so your dog will always have someone around! I love walking and know lots of lovely routes around the Stirlingshire area. I’m confident with both energetic puppies and senior dogs. I treat every animal as if they’re my own, taking the time to learn their unique quirks and routines so they feel relaxed and cared for from the moment we meet. Your dog's safety is my top priority. I ensure their environment is secure, follow all specific care instructions, and provide the comfort they need while you're away. My calm and loving approach helps your dog feel right at home. I'm more than happy to meet for a coffee or walk, so you can feel confident about booking me to care for your dog. I work from home which means I’m very flexible and I have plenty of time to provide your pup with lots of care and attention! Although I live in a flat, I really enjoy getting out into the countryside for walks. I want to meet all the personal care requirements and needs that your pet has and I love getting to know different pets’ personalities whether they’re hyper and bubbly or a cool cucumber! I’ll ensure you have peace of mind while I’m looking after your dog by sending you updates and photos so you don’t have to worry!
“Connie was a wonderful sitter! Super friendly and easy to chat with, very much same energy so I knew our cats would get on great. All of our cats including the shy ones warmed to her very quickly and she took excellent care of them all Giving detailed updates and photos Will definitely recommend her and will be rebooking in future”
About: I’ve had my own cat, Michael, for over eight years, so I understand the responsibility and commitment that comes with caring for a pet. I also have experience caring for pets of different ages, personalities and needs, from energetic young pets to older animals who may need a little more patience and attention. I’m confident caring for young pets and reinforcing routines and basic training, while also providing calm, gentle care for senior pets. As an active and reliable person, I love making sure pets get plenty of exercise, play and mental stimulation, always adapting to their individual needs. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine closely and make sure they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I grew up in a household with cats, so caring for them has always been a natural and much-loved part of my life. I have also had experience caring for and looking after cats over extended periods, including up to three years, and genuinely adore their individual personalities and quirks. I offer pet sitting in your own home, as I believe cats are often happiest and most relaxed in familiar surroundings, and I’m available for local drop-in visits for feeding, cuddles, playtime, litter care and general companionship. I can also provide house sitting with your pet if you’re going away on holiday and would prefer someone to stay in your home and keep your cat company. I’m gentle, patient, reliable and attentive, and I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m unable to board cats in my own home as I have a dog, but I’m more than happy to provide loving, dedicated care in your home where your cat can remain comfortable in their familiar environment.
About: I’ve owned and cared for cats for many years and truly appreciate their individual personalities. Whether your cat is social and affectionate or prefers quiet observation from a distance, I’m comfortable adapting to their pace. I’m naturally calm and very much a homebody. I’m perfectly happy to spend time sitting and reading with a cat nearby, allowing them to come to me when they feel comfortable. I never force interaction and understand how important it is for cats to feel in control of their space. Maintaining routine is a priority for me. Feeding times, litter care, play sessions, and medication schedules will be kept consistent to minimise stress while you’re away. I’m confident administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions, including for senior cats or those with special dietary needs. Because I work partly online, I’m home for much of the day and able to provide regular companionship and supervision. Your cat and your home will be treated with the same care and respect I give my own.
“Perfect drop in to scoop the litter trays, change the water, play with and feed my cats. Arrived on time and good feedback about how they were doing. Followed instructions and stayed a little longer than planned as they were having fun. Will book Shauni again!”
“Shona went above and beyond looking after our 2 cats while we were on holiday and kept us updated with plenty of pictures. We are really pleased that we chose her and our kitties were very happy with her as well! We'll definitely book you again next time we go away! 😊”

“We booked Spirit, our husky, with Josephine while her usual sitters were away, and were very pleased with how she was looked after. At the end we picked up a happy and contented dog!”
“I used Sophie's Daycare services for my 2 Dachshunds. She replied to my request very quickly and agreed to look after them at short notice, which really helped me out of a sticky situation. As soon as I dropped them off I could tell my pups were immediately comfortable with Sophie and her home. I got photo and message updates throughout the day to see how much fun my babies were having (and Sophie too, I think). I will 100% be using her services again, and would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter. Thank you again, Sophie!”
“My dog Millie’s first visit with Alison and she was well looked after. Alison sent me updates throughout the day and I came back to a very contented and tired dog. My lass also got to socialise with Alison’s own dog. Delighted and we will be back.”
“My first time using this app and I am so grateful that I met Andrew, we went for a walk on our first meet and got to spend some time with my dog Molly which they got on so well and he handled her pulling and being hyper in a new environment. Andrew also put me at ease with all my questions and made me feel comfortable. Molly then spent the day with Andrew and I honestly did not feel stressed or worried about how she was getting on, I did message and got a quick reply and photos am really happy with how the whole day went and would recommend him and molly will definitely be back”
“Izzy has a great day with Shauni! She was really well looked after, and the photos and details on her rover card were great. Shauni was great at communicating before and during the booking. Thanks so much!”
About: Hi! I’m Erin, I’m 29 years old and work from home as a radiologist service delivery manager! I grew up on a farm in South Africa and have rescued over 20 dogs during my 10 years over there. In south Africa we currently have two rescues, Luna and Honey, who are staffy x Pitties and they are the best ever! I have always been around dogs and I love giving them all the attention and cuddles they desire! I had my own little frenchie who was my world, Cruz, who unfortunately isn’t with us anymore. I would love to be around dogs and help out with them before I’m ready to make that commitment on my own again ❤️🩹 I miss having a fur baby around! I work 4 x 10 hour shifts per week from the comfort of my own home! My work is extremely flexible so I would be able to cuddle up on the couch with your pooch whilst working, and also have the time to take them on a lovely big walk and entertain them! I have a one bedroom flat with lots of couch space and floor space for your loved doggie! They are allowed on furniture and will be spoiled with cuddles. There are lots of walkways near me and lovely forested areas
About: People should choose me because I put genuine care and attention into every walk. I understand that dogs need more than just exercise—they need patience, affection, and someone who really pays attention to their personality and safety. I’m reliable, calm, and committed to making sure each dog feels happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. Owners can count on me to treat their pets as if they were my own. As a film student at university, I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of free time throughout the week, making it easy for me to fit in regular dog walks. My classes and projects often vary from day to day, which means I’m available during mornings, afternoons, and even some evenings. This flexibility allows me to be dependable and consistent, giving each dog the time and attention they deserve without feeling rushed. When caring for pets in my home or a pet owner’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and calm environment. I follow the owner’s routines closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play habits, and any special instructions—so the pet feels secure and at ease.
“Thank you so much Isobel for taking such good care of Bysey, your husband too. Bytsey is sleeping in her bed already. A sure sign that she’s had a great day! Thanks again, Selena x”
“Barley had a great time with Michèle and Ollie, thank you so much for taking such good care of him. All the updates and photos were lovely to get, too. Hopefully Barley came come visit again soon :)”
“Markus was very good with my dog. He took very good care of Milo and he came back really happy. Marcus is quite prompt in his relies and would definitely recommend him to others.”
“Lucy was great with Draco! she was also understanding as I was a bit late in dropping him in, she sent many pics and fill the report so I was completely calm that Draco was perfectly fine and having fun! 100% recomended”
About: I have had dogs since I was a child however living in a flat with one wouldn't be easy so I have decided to wait until I purchase a house with a garden so will pet sit until then! I now work from home so I can house sit as long as there is a solid internet connection to allow your dog to be in its own space whilst I am there to reduce stress. I have my own vehicle to get to and from in the Stirling area also. I work full time from home or anywhere remote - 08.00- 16.00 Mon- Fri so happy to house sit any hours during this time. It's also easy for me to pick up new hours and alter schedules to what is needed. I have cats currently and probably way over protective of them, so I know how important any pet parent is about leaving their beloved animal with someone. I would always be extra attentive.
“Magda and Ian were so helpful and understanding when I made a mistake with a recent booking. They are very welcoming and great with Hamish who enjoyed his time there and he is already looking forward to his next stay with them!”
About: Hi! I'm Irayna, and I'd love to help care for your pets when you can't be there. I share my home with Pepper, my miniature Dachshund, and I grew up with cats, so animals have always been a big part of my life. I've also recently welcomed friends' dogs into my home for week-long stays while they were away. It was lovely seeing them settle in alongside Pepper, and it gave me plenty of experience caring for dogs with different personalities and routines. Whether you're looking for someone to walk your dog, pop in for feeding and company, care for your cat, or stay in your home while you're away, I'll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and care. I'll always follow their normal routine, from feeding and walks to medication if needed, helping them feel as comfortable as possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care, so I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that's taking dogs out for walks, playing with them, or caring for cats in the comfort of their own home. I'm organised, reliable, and happy to work around your pet's usual routine, including feeding times, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you're away. Every pet is different, so I always take the time to understand their routine, personality, and any specific needs before I begin caring for them. Whether I'm looking after your pet in your home or visiting for walks and drop-ins, I'll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and settled. I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise or playtime, lots of attention, and, of course, plenty of fuss if they enjoy it! I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Having grown up with dogs, I have personally raised and cared for four family pets over the past 20+ years. This lifelong experience includes dedicated senior dog care, where I focus on the gentle pace, patience, and attentive routine needed to keep older dogs comfortable and safe. I am also skilled in basic dog training, using consistent positive reinforcement to encourage good habits during walks and home visits. Beyond caring for my own pets, I managed the daily well-being of an on-site rehomed rescue dog during my time at Bay Tree Flowers. What sets me apart as a sitter is my commitment to reliability, clear communication, and safety. As a certified workplace First Aider, I bring a calm, level-headed approach to special care requirements or unexpected situations. I am also a confident driver with my own vehicle, ensuring prompt and reliable home visits or outings. Whether your pet needs gentle senior support, active exercise, or structured routine reinforcement, I treat every animal with the highest level of affection and attentive care. I have a flexible schedule that makes integrating pet care seamless. I am available all week for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I am happy to accommodate morning visits, afternoon walks, evening check-ins, or overnight care depending on what works best for you and your pet's regular routine. As a certified First Aider with extensive experience caring for dogs—including senior pets—I prioritize safety, comfort, and peace of mind above all else. I approach every home visit and walk with strict attention to secure doors, gates, and leashes. I follow owner routines precisely, ensuring feeding, medication, training reinforcement, and quiet time are handled with care. As a confident driver with my own vehicle, I can easily transport pets if an emergency ever arises, keeping your pet safe and comfortable in their home environment.
About: With several years of hands-on experience on a farm, I've been able to care for dogs, cats and many other animals of varying ages and breeds. I offer thoughtful and consistent care tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. I’ve worked with shy rescues, high-energy puppies, and senior pets who need a gentler approach. For dogs, I have experience with leash training, basic commands, and creating calm, consistent routines. For cats, I’ve built trust with even the most standoffish felines through patience and body language awareness. Whether your pet needs playtime, medication, or just someone who loves animals, I bring both reliability and heart to every visit. I'll respect and treat them as though they were my own little ones. I am currently working part-time so have plenty of free time to look after pets. I'm an athlete so walking your pets is no problem whatsoever. I am always punctual, dependable, and respectful of your time. Pet care is something I prioritize with care and consistency. I currently offer flexible availability for morning and evening visits, and I’m happy to accommodate weekend and holiday bookings as well. Whether you’re away for a day or a week, you can count on me to keep things running smoothly and your pets happy and safe. I live in a quiet, safe and gated residential area. There's lots of space in my flat for the pets to roam. I create a calm, pet-friendly space that’s clean, supervised, and adapted to each pet’s personality and needs. I take home security very seriously, always locking up. When caring for pets in their own home, my priority is to maintain their routine and environment so they feel safe, relaxed, and secure while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully because every detail matters.
“Emma was fantastic with our border collie, Arran, over the 4 days she walked him. He always came back happy, tired, and clearly had a great time. She took him to a nearby park for proper long runs, which he absolutely loved. The daily photo updates always made me laugh haha, and Emma was always reliable, on time, and great with communication. Most importantly, Arran was genuinely happy being walked by her, which gave us real peace of mind. We’d book with Emma again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years, including walking, feeding and giving lots of love and attention. Friends, family, and neighbours trust me to keep their pets safe, happy, and well-exercised while they’re away. As a university student and professional athlete, I maintain a structured weekly routine around my university and swimming training. I have university classes 9am–2pm on Mondays and Tuesdays, swimming training 6–9:30on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and 12–3:45pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. I recently moved to Stirling from Aberdeen to undertake a masters in marketing, meaning my own Golden Retriever, Duke, is staying at home in Aberdeen with my family. I really miss having him around and the comfort, companionship and joy that comes from having a dog to care for and give lots of love and attention to. Pet sitting gives me the opportunity to share that love and care with other people’s pets. Outside of my scheduled university and training hours, I am completely free and can dedicate my time to your pet. When pet sitting, I will be staying in the owner’s home and can provide your pet with my full attention, company and care for the majority of the day. This means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, while still being able to stay in the comfort of their own home and maintain their usual surroundings. I’m reliable, responsible and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, walks and playtime while you’re away. I provide safe, fun walks in dog friendly areas. I always make sure dogs are on lead unless given permission and stay fully attentive to their safety and comfort. I treat every dog like my own, giving them care, patience and lots of love.
“Shauni arrived on time and brought her back she was really enthusiastic with Roxi and Roxi went away quite happy I told her Roxi could be off lead but she kept her on lead for the first walk thank you Shauni I recommend Shauni too look after your dog also Roxi went too go with Shauni when she was dropped off Roxi lay down for a sleep on her return so happy”
About: I grew up on a farm so I’ve always been surrounded by animals from a young age which started my love for dogs when we got our first border collie! I have experience with many dog breeds and ages having volunteered at the SSPCA, which involved handling large, energetic dogs, new born pups, as well as more timid dogs suffering from anxiety. I’ve also worked abroad with dogs who had been dumped/abandoned meaning many suffered from disease and/or malnourishment. I am also canine/pet first aid trained. I am currently running my own dog walking business called Kirstin’s K9 Care where I get to walk and play with the best dogs, join the club! I am currently focusing only on dog walking and building my animal care career so my schedule is open and I am available to book mon-fri I drive a van meaning I have plenty of room for dogs to be picked up safely and transported to walking routes that really suit their needs whether that be a big open field to just run about in and burn energy, or a woodland walk to provide lots of good smells for your dog.
About: I’ve had my own cat, Michael, for over eight years, so I understand the responsibility and commitment that comes with caring for a pet. I also have experience caring for pets of different ages, personalities and needs, from energetic young pets to older animals who may need a little more patience and attention. I’m confident caring for young pets and reinforcing routines and basic training, while also providing calm, gentle care for senior pets. As an active and reliable person, I love making sure pets get plenty of exercise, play and mental stimulation, always adapting to their individual needs. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine closely and make sure they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently at university, working part-time and am also a competitive athlete, so I’m used to managing a busy but flexible schedule. My training and university commitments vary throughout the week, which allows me to be adaptable and work around the needs of each pet. I’m happy to arrange walks, drop-ins, feeding visits or pet sitting around your schedule wherever possible. I understand that every pet has a different routine, so I’m flexible and will always do my best to accommodate what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my priority. I’ll take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality and any specific needs before caring for them, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully. I’m responsible, reliable and respectful of your home and belongings. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away and won’t hesitate to get in touch if I’m unsure about anything. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in safe and caring hands.
About: I’ve had many many dogs, cats, chickens and sheep of my own, but also over many years looked after friend’s dogs, cats and small furries. Looked after pets of all ages and peculiarities. Every one is different and special. I have two dogs and two cats of my own with family help if I need to stay away. I am available at any time, with notice and can easily fit my dogs walks around visiting your pets. Pet care is my full time occupation so your pet is my priority. Whatever your pets normal routine, I can cater for them to keep life as close to your usual routine as possible. Either in your home or mine as preferred.
About: From my 6 years experience of caring for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs, I’ve learned how to create a calm, loving, and structured environment where your dog will feel safe and understood. I work from home so your dog will always have someone around! I love walking and know lots of lovely routes around the Stirlingshire area. I’m confident with both energetic puppies and senior dogs. I treat every animal as if they’re my own, taking the time to learn their unique quirks and routines so they feel relaxed and cared for from the moment we meet. Your dog's safety is my top priority. I ensure their environment is secure, follow all specific care instructions, and provide the comfort they need while you're away. My calm and loving approach helps your dog feel right at home. I'm more than happy to meet for a coffee or walk, so you can feel confident about booking me to care for your dog. I work from home which means I’m very flexible and I have plenty of time to provide your pup with lots of care and attention! Although I live in a flat, I really enjoy getting out into the countryside for walks. I want to meet all the personal care requirements and needs that your pet has and I love getting to know different pets’ personalities whether they’re hyper and bubbly or a cool cucumber! I’ll ensure you have peace of mind while I’m looking after your dog by sending you updates and photos so you don’t have to worry!
About: I've grown up with a dog in the house, so having moved out I miss having the company of a furry friend. I regularly look after my parent's dogs or my in-law's dog. A highlight of mine was watching my parent's dog's litter grow up after they bred her and caring for the eight puppies. I'm currently working part-time while I study which gives me plenty of flexibility for looking after your doggos! I study on a Tuesday and Thursday so am able to be very flexible on those days. I'm also available weekends. I'm really flexible because I know that dogs love their routines. One thing's for sure, they'll get all the love and attention! I live in a woodland area where there's lots of smells and walks nearby.
About: I’ve always had family pets and now have my own dogs! My background is farming, so I have also trained and had loyal companions throughout. I’m able to walk, feed, play, love your pets like I do my own. I do my best to make your pets feel at home. I am currently not working after having my daughter so I am very flexible and will be able to cater around your schedule and needs. I believe all dogs deserve to be at their happiest. I will ensure your pet will be well looked after and return happy and full of life.
“Maria is absolutely great, Bru loved her she took him on 3 different walks using her car for 2 of them I highly recommend Maria a very friendly bubbly personality.i will definitely use her again.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal owner with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds and temperaments, including Irish Wolfhound crosses, Border Collies, Miniature Dachshunds, and cats. I’ve also cared for chickens and small animals, so I’m comfortable managing different routines and environments. Having recently relocated from Australia, I’m excited to share the care and attention I’ve always given my own pets with yours. I work partly online, which means I’m home for much of the day and able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and structure. Whether your dog is a high-energy working breed needing long walks and mental stimulation, a puppy learning the ropes, or a senior who prefers a slower pace, I adapt to their individual needs. I’m confident with puppies and happy to reinforce basic training, boundaries, and positive routines. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions. Routine is extremely important to me. I aim to keep feeding, walking, playtime, and sleep schedules as close to normal as possible to ensure your pet feels secure and settled while you’re away. As a homeowner myself, I understand how valuable trust and reliability are. Your home and pets will be treated with the same care and respect I give my own. Mornings and evenings are structured around feeding, walks, playtime, and any medication needs. I plan my work flexibly to ensure pets receive consistent attention if needed, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I can be a home body or out and about for puppy chinos. Walking to the local Cafe after a run in the park is one of my favourite hobbies, closely followed by a good book and a glass of wine by the fire. I really do just adapt to the needs of your pet :) . I prioritise maintaining the pet’s established routine to minimise stress. Feeding times, walks, play sessions, and medication schedules are followed carefully. I respect the home as if it were my own, keeping it clean, secure, and tidy. I also provide regular photo and message updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, reinforcing basic training and positive habits, as well as administering oral medications for both dogs and cats. My approach is calm, consistent, and attentive, with the goal of keeping pets happy, secure, and settled.

I love all dogs and have raised 3 Cockapoo litters, teaching and training 22 gorgeous puppies from birth until they went on to start their new life’s with their new owners, giving them all the best start in life. I have a FB page which I kept updated from the pups birth date until to their “gotcha” day for all new owners to follow their pups progress. The last litter was born on August 2024, The page is open and available for all new owners to post pictures and updates of their puppies to adult's progress and their new and happy life. I also regularly post on the page to keep in touch and always wish all a big “Happy Barkday” from their mums 🐾 grandma 🐾 and their big and little brothers 🐾 & sisters 🐾. 4 generations of fluffy, gorgeous Cockapoos Im a Carer so I’m no longer in employed paid work. I’m available all week for your pets needs, whether that be dropping in, taking a walk, pet sitting for that special occasion or weekend/holiday away, even attending that special occasion you want your pet to be part of… a wedding etc I have a large secure fenced garden for my dogs (and yours) to run around and to keep them safe AND 2 friendly Cockapoos to keep them company.
About: For boarding and day care, pick up and drop off service may be available upon request. During a stay 2 walks a day can be expected, plus playtime in a fully fenced garden. Any other needs can be discussed. I have been a pet owner for 7 years but have grown up around dogs. I have worked and volunteered in animal shelters, and worked in a medical environment caring for animals. Working in shelters has given me some animal training experience, and experience in handling more difficult animals. Working in the medical environment has given me knowledge of special need animals and administering medications. I started professional pet care while living in the USA. This included home visits, walks and sitting. I look forward to hearing from you!

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs since I was 7 years old, so looking after dogs has always been a big part of my life. I genuinely love spending time with them and making sure they feel happy, safe and comfortable. I also have experience caring for dogs professionally in a work setting as I have been responsible for leading dog walking activities for children and families. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels and needs, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and preferences. Whether your dog loves long walks and playing, or prefers plenty of cuddles and relaxing at home, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they need. I’m responsible, patient and caring, and I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in safe hands, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure they’re well looked after while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I currently have some extra flexibility during the week and I’m available for pet care throughout the day on many weekdays. I’m also available for evening and weekend bookings, which I can continue to offer around my usual working hours. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine wherever possible and can discuss specific days and times to find something that works for both of us. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced garden at home and regularly look after friends’ and family members’ dogs, so I’m used to having dogs in my home and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. I don’t currently have any pets living in my home, so your dog can have my full attention without having to share the space with another resident pet. I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, medication if required, and any other individual needs. When caring for a pet in their own home, I’ll treat their space with the same respect as I would my own and make sure they feel safe, settled and comfortable. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you know they’re happy while you’re away. ❤️🐶
“Clare has been absolutely fantastic from the very beginning! She took the time to get to know all of Albert's quirks and habits, making her home feel like a true home away from home for him. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Clare. She kept me updated every step of the way with wonderful daily photos and detailed updates on Albert's exploits. It was so reassuring knowing he was getting his daily exercise at the lovely park nearby and receiving so much care and attention. On top of that, she was incredibly accommodating and flexible with pick-up and drop-off times, which made everything completely stress-free. I would highly recommend Clare to anyone looking for a top-tier dog sitter. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much, Clare!”

About: Hi there! I’m an active, lifelong dog owner and remote worker, meaning your pup will have dedicated companionship, plenty of attention, and a fun, structured routine throughout the day. Having grown up with dogs my entire life, I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs. I offer dog walking and dog sitting services tailored to keep your pet happy, safe, and well-exercised. Because I work remotely, I’m home for the vast majority of the day and can easily accommodate drop-in potty breaks, feeding schedules, mid-day playtime, and regular outdoor walks. Aside from my remote work, my main hobbies are playing football and practicing martial arts. My active lifestyle means I have plenty of energy for longer walks, games of fetch, or energetic outdoor sessions if your dog loves to move. If your dog prefers cuddling on the couch while I work, they’ll have a quiet, comfortable space to relax right by my side. You can rest easy knowing your dog is receiving attentive, experienced, and trustworthy care while you’re away. I treat every dog in my care with the same patience, love, and effort as my own! I work full time remotely from home. I can have the dogs out for walks every couple of hours with or without my own dog present. I live beside a large park so have plenty of space for exercise. I have a fenced garden which your dog will have open access to all day as I work from my conservatory. I’m fine with the dogs being on couch and bed or have have them held in crate if needed. Completely flexible.
