“We travel quite a lot, therefore we have 2-3 dog sitters so we can be sure someone is available when we travel. This was our first time booking Ellie and the first time having a dog sitter at our place. She looked after our dog Lexa for a week while we went on holiday. Lexa is a rescue and she is quite shy with new people but She absolutely loved Ellie. Ellie sent lots of updates and we came back to a tidy home and a happy doggo. We have booked her again already for September :)”

“Daniela is lovely and was great with our dogs.”


“Rebecca was great in caring for my dog, Maeve and cat, Wally! Both require an element of special treatment with kidney disease, tummy sensitivities and allergies and she did really well caring for them! Both pets were very happy/at ease upon my return.

My mission is to make every walk a fun, safe, and enriching experience—and every training session a step toward better behavior and a stronger bond between dogs and their humans.Whether your dog needs a calm walk while you’re at work or support learning new skills, I’m here to help—with patience, consistency, and lots of love (and treats!). I love sitting for dogs or catd to get that extra, cosy bond, I treat every dog or cats like part of my family. Whether it’s for a weekend getaway or a daily visit, I provide a calm, caring, and safe environment where your dog feels right at home. I can fit one or two days a week to do, dog walking or dog sitting or popping in to check in on your fury friend With my two big XL American bullies they have a big garden and we take them out for a walk regularly, I will listen to every client how they would like me to look after their fur babies

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs all through my life and have spent many years caring for the furry best friends of many of my family and friends. I use Rover myself and my cat is an indoor guy, so I fully understand and respect the need for total safety and security when it comes to your home and your pets. I’m committed to providing the best care and support to your pets as I have received for my own lovely cat. I’m an outdoor gal, rain or shine, so love a walk and a stomp whatever the weather. I have a car and can drive to specific places if your little guys have a preferred run around spot or need a bit more green space than you might have locally. I’m trained in pet first aid ⛑️ I work full time currently but work hybrid and can be flexible with hours. I will always ensure that I only take bookings I can accommodate alongside my work. I totally understand the trust that goes into opening up your home and entrusting your beloved pet to a new person. I am respectful and boundaried in my full-time work and take this into my pet care responsibilities.

About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life. I cannot remember a time when I've not had some kind of animal around me.We always had dogs in our family when growing up. My dad was a massive dog lover who loved Dobermans. I once had 3 dogs and 3 cats living in my home..manic but worth every second of every year we were fortunate to have them. The last of the pack is now 15 year old and appreciating what time we have together..so I am experienced in taking care of all breeds, size and age of dogs. I have taken care of friends dogs and cats over the years. I love walking both in the country and by the sea..life is so much more beautiful with a dog by your side.. This is my new vocation in life, I have worked in office environments for over 40 years..time for a big change and slow life down a little..enjoy doing what I've always enjoyed..being around furry creatures I am be available a very flexible 5 day week for day care and 7 day week for boarders to cover holidays.. I live in a beautiful part of the Wirral with an amazing park and beach 5 minute walk away. I love walking so if your pet is up to it they will never be bored.. I have no children living at my home just two grandchildren that are no longer babies and only visit weekends every three weeks..they love and respect all animals like I do. I have a small walled courtyard that is plenty big enough to wander around but all exercise will be undertaken at the park and beach I also have a large stroller incase your dog is an older dog and just wants to be out but not necessarily doing the walks.

“Such a lovely caring lady who will look after you pet with care, attention and lots of love will book Sonya again and would highly recommend her. Thank you Sonya”

“second time with katy, can’t wait to book again! really helping with our dogs separation anxiety which we massively appreciate!”


“Our Buddy had the best time with Caitlyn for a full day yesterday - he was absolutely gutted she had to go back home! Caitlyn is the loveliest lady who treated our Buddy like he was her own. He was treated to a little day out going to the cafe and a lovely winter walk, not to mention lots of cuddles! Caitlyn kept me updated all day long, providing me with information on where they were together, when he had ate and when he was napping. I felt 100% comfortable all day knowing that Caitlyn was providing Buddy with her very best care. Caitlyn radiates professionalism, patience, kindness and care and I would recommend her to anybody needing help with caring for a pet when you aren't able to be with them. Thanks again Caitlyn and we can't wait to have you again! 💕🐶”


About: I have experience with a wide range of breeds from Pomeranians to American bulldogs. I’ve volunteered in animal shelters as a fosterer and dog walker since 2004 and I’ve also owned different animals; cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters. I work from home so can easily schedule visits and sits. I stick to your routine and schedule as much as possible to keep the environment as ‘normal’ as it can be so that your pet feels safe and secure. I follow your routine to help ease the disruption of your home environment. I will follow a coeliac/vegan/specialised diet in your home. I always meet a pet before completing a booking. I am used to injecting diabetic cats and working with nervous dogs.

About: I have had a dog for most of my life until 2018 when my 17 year old dog Rocky passed away. Since then I minded family / friends dogs and cats when they are away or just out for the day. I also volunteer for Moggies and Doggies Merseyside and reunite lost pets to their owners. I have taken a career break from my finance role and decided that my happy place is when around animals. I would love to meet you and your pets xx My availability is quite flexible at the moment, so pop me a message. I will be happy to fit your pets in to my schedule. I have a big grass garden which is fully enclosed with no way of getting out onto main roads. Your pets would be in a happy, smiley and safe environment.

“Hollie you did a fantastic job looking after Phoebe, I cannot recommend you enough! I knew she was in safe hands & didn’t feel anxious at all leaving her with you. I can see how much she enjoyed her day (& all the walks) and I look forward to you minding her again in the future. Thank you!”

“Chelsea's love for animals unmatched, I personally know of her experience with dogs, cats and reptiles. She's added to this by seeking out more opportunities for herself to grow and develop as pet carer and trainer, I know this as she has worked closely with my two male XL bullies showing them love and attention whilst been able to train and socialise them. They are my loving beautiful boys because of the time and work Chelsea has invested into them, given the time we live in some people may have refused to work with my boys but Chelsea believes every pet deserves a chance to be loved and looked after.”
