“What an amazing experience! Johnny looked after our cat for a week while we were in Morocco- we came back to a happy shiny cat and a pristine house. He is respectful, thoughtful and very friendly. Luna has the best time and I can’t recommend her new friend Johnny highly enough! Brilliant service!”


“Incredible woman and has a fantastic love and patience for cats! Lucia is such a heartwarming lady. She sent daily photos and a description of everything she had done, the photos included play, food, litter change, water. Any needs that I had she exceeded. My cats were much more relaxed and happy knowing she was coming round to care for them. Any requirements you have Lucia is the woman for you.

About: Hi, I'm Tom and I live with my fiancée, Millie, and our 3 year-old dog Rosie! I have always had dogs, and have always been relied on by friends, family, and even colleagues to provide care for their dogs - whether they need walks, boarding, or house sitting. I have experience with puppies, having trained two dogs (including Rosie) from puppy age, as well as senior dogs and, of course, those in between! I also have experience of providing post-surgery care and understand the importance of providing proper care and rehabilitation. Millie has also had dogs as family pets for her entire life, so we are both well experienced dog carers and owners. I'm currently in a hybrid job role and able to work from home 2-3 days per week, so I will be available on the days that I work from home, as well as weekends and evenings! As we have a dog at home, we go on walks anyway, so your dogs will be able to come along! Rosie is very small, so doesn't generally have long walks. I am happy to take larger, more energetic dogs on separate, longer walks. I have a good-sized, secure garden which is perfect for toileting and playing. I have a friendly, relaxed dog at home who will keep your dog company! I have a small crate, so smaller dogs can be crated if required. Your dog can spend the days with me in our home office, but our home is across three floors so there is plenty of room if your dog prefers their own space. We have two doggy cameras set up around the home and looking into the garden, so your dogs are always being well looked after. We have access to a large field right outside our house and, due to the location and layout of our street, it's generally only used by us and our neighbours. There are lots of quiet streets in our immediate area, and we live within a 10-minute drive of large woodland areas which are perfect for walks.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, from our senior Yorkshire terriers, to my Greek rescue cat. We currently have 2 Yorkshire terriers and 3 Maine coons age 9 months. Our house is busy but lots of room for our fur babies. No children so plenty of time to devote to our pets. All our pets are friendly, the cats are very dog savvy and actually behave more like dogs! We are also experienced in diabetic cats so could assist if necessary. I work from home so I’m always around to help My partner has a flexible job as an airline pilot, but I work from home so have plenty of time to help with your pets. Including weekends and evenings. We have a large enclosed garden for your pets, we have a 5 bedroom detached property so lots of room for your pets to make themselves at home. Our pets are treated like royalty and I would treat yours the same. They are allowed anywhere in the house, upstairs, on furniture/beds wherever they please.

About: I have grown up with a variety of animals on my nannas farm as a child including dogs and cats so I am confident in offering the best care for the furry members of your family. I believe they should be treated as a member of my family while I am looking after them. I have also been around horses my whole life and enjoy exploring the countryside with my own dog that I have had from a puppy I am a self employed florist so I am very flexible to work my schedule around looking after your furry friends and I am available 7 days a week I will try keep the same routine that they have with you as I have found this keeps pets more settled when their loved ones are away

About: I’m passionate about creating a safe and happy environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. With plenty of time to dedicate to your furry friends, I’m available weekends and week days to ensure your pet receives the attention they deserve. My home is perfect for dogs to relax and play. It’s just myself and my little 5-year-old pug, who is friendly, playful, and eager to make new friends. We also have a spacious, secure grass garden where your dog can enjoy fresh air and exercise in a safe environment. I work from home, which gives me plenty of time to play with and care for your beloved dogs!

About: I’ve had pets of all breeds and sizes throughout my life, and currently share my home with two sassy miniature dachshunds who keep me on my toes! Being surrounded by dogs isn’t just part of my lifestyle—it’s something I truly love. My entire family owns a variety of dogs, so I’m constantly around different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an adventurous hike, I enjoy staying active with pups and making sure they’re well-exercised and happy. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I’ve always loved being around animals. I work in early years and am currently studying Childhood Studies with the goal of becoming a teacher, which means my weekdays are structured—but I have plenty of free time on weekends and during school holidays. This makes me especially flexible for last-minute plans or spontaneous days out when you need a sitter you can count on. Whether it’s a weekend walk or a day out , I’m happy to help give your pet the love and attention they deserve. When caring for a pet in their own home, my priority is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I’ll make sure they’re well-fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise based on their needs. I’m respectful of your home and will follow any instructions you provide closely—whether that’s administering medication, sticking to specific feeding times, or maintaining training habits. Most importantly, I aim to create a calm, safe environment so your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away.

About: We’ve had animals in the family since I’ve been born, So looking after them comes naturally. I now personally have 2 part time French bulldogs. 4yo male and 2yo female. I can offer a really cozy family home, for dogs who need love and comfort, and also we can accommodate for reactive dogs, in a no child no pet zone. Lots of love, snuggles, and exercise ! Hi, my names Vicky and I currently work full time in the prison service, however I find myself having plenty of spare time to care for fur babies. I’d have one full time if it wasn’t for my job, so being able to care for other animals in my free time is so heartwarming.❤️ I live with my partner Gary and his son (only part-time) I’d be the main care giver. I am DBS checked. I have a 3 bedroom home in Howden in a quiet street, which has a 6ft high secure back garden for lots of playing. We are also a short walk from a large park.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs now since I was little, I love all animals so much and bond really easily with them! I wish I could look after animals as a full time time alas I work in an office so will just have to look forward to hanging out them in my spare time ❤️🩹 I have just moved back to Yorkshire after some time away so looking for something wholesome to fill most of my evenings and weekends x I work 9-4 so I am flexible in the evenings and available at the weekends! I have recently just moved back to Yorkshire after some time away so I am mostly free to hang out with some fur babies! I will easily and gladly follow instructions provided for pet care, and their individual needs whether that is keeping track of food & medication times or whatever else you might need or if they just need frequent cuddles!

About: Vast amount of experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments. After growing up around rescue dogs and working dogs my partner and I have a genuine love and acceptance of all breeds. Previously owned and trained various breeds from Staffys and spaniels to smaller breeds such as Lhasa Apso's and Bichon Frise's. Offering dog walking services, overnight stays and day care. We have a fully enclosed garden and a rural house with acres of land surrounding us. Dogs can have full run of the house whilst in our care along with a cupboard full of treats! We have a very flexible schedule due to our full time jobs being work from home role and we do not work weekends. Dogs in our care have free run of a fully enclosed garden and our home. All breeds of every shape, size and age are welcome. We ensure all dogs get 2 walks per day minimum unless they require less/more which can be requested prior to staying :) Dogs will get plenty of attention and have lots of space to run around as we have q large enclosed garden that backs onto miles of fields! We have numerous returning customers and dogs of all different breeds, sizes and ages. So we understand that all dogs have different needs to cater for Please ensure your dog is well house trained! Please note there is a £125 fee for any dogs who poo or excessively urinate, I expect some dogs to have a few accidents marking scent where other dogs have been in the house, but I've had a few incidents now where dogs do not appear well house trained at all or have come to me with illness and ruined the carpets. This fee is because I have a child in the home so need to professionally steam the carpets when poo gets in the fibres. I work from home so I'm around most of the time. I go into the office for 4 hours on a Thursday but usually take the dogs with me, and they may be alone for up to an hour whilst I take my son to a football class or playgroup I have a fully fenced garden and live in the countryside with beautiful walks for the dogs and they are walked atleast twice a day

About: I cared for dogs and cats since I was a child, now I have 4 cats living with me and they are my babies. Love animals and would love to meet yours. I am currently working full time from 6 oclock till 2 oclock, so I am available evenings on weekdays and all day and night on weekends. I would prefer to care for animals at your house as my cats do not like other pets. They are silly. Also I am renting.

About: I have been around animals all my life. From cats to dogs, to rabbits and guinee pigs, I’m confident on what they all require, from daily walks, to feeding schedules and plenty of love! I’m often asked to dog sit & cat sit from family and friends, so it would be no change to every day life. I am offering out my services of dog walking and pet sitting, so please drop me a message. I am currently fully flexible with my hours, so I can work around your pet, your work schedules and daily lives. Whether this be dog walking early morning and late evening, or mid day toilet trips, I am available to work around your schedule. I don’t currently offer services from my own home however I ensure a safe environment for whomever I am looking after. I know what animals should and shouldn’t eat, and if your pet has any specific requirements ie medicine I am experienced in providing this as my mums cat has hyper thyroidism and requires medicine twice a day. I know to give pets plenty of love, but I also know when an animal wants there own space and would be happy to let them be in their own home if that’s what they require. I would ensure their water bowl is constantly filled up and they have access to toilet breaks and walks and fresh air. I would be happy to give them pet treats and I would stick to feeding schedules. Whatever you require, I would be happy to cater to. To ensure I could react in the best possible way if an emergency scenario we’re to arise, I would need to have emergency contact details on hand as well know who their registered vets are.
