About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have spent my whole life caring for animals. Over the years, I’ve regularly looked after pets for friends and family while they were away, including feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and making sure they felt comfortable and loved in their owners’ absence. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own, paying close attention to their routines, needs, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply some company and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of care and attention while you’re away. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend lots of time with the pets in my care. Whether your pet enjoys company, playtime, regular walks, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I have a secure fenced garden and a friendly indoor cat. While she is gentle and calm around other animals, she can be a little nervous around unfamiliar pets. To ensure a stress-free environment for everyone, I can keep her on a separate floor of the house when needed. My home has three floors, providing plenty of space to safely separate pets if required. I will always make sure that both your pet and my cat are comfortable, happy, and well cared for during their stay!

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!

We had a great experience with Jonny as our cat sitter. He was reliable, attentive, and clearly cares about animals. Our cats were happy and well looked after when we got home, and we appreciated the updates along the way. We’d definitely use Jonny again and highly recommend him!

About: I’ve cared for family pets for many years and have attended an animal management course for animal welfare and behaviour, which included details of training animals and properly caring for a variety of different animals and pets. I have also volunteered at a dog kennels looking after dogs in kennels whilst their owners were away and I currently work at a dog groomers. I have learned to care for a variety of animals so can provide care for different pets. I am currently at college and have a job so I can fit pet care into anytime on weekends and after 6pm on weekdays. I can also provide pet care during bank holidays and any other time off I have. I can cater to different pets’ needs and follow specific instructions pet owners have for their pets to make sure they have the best care. I will only provide pet care for pets outside of my house as I have a dog and wouldn’t want pets to become stressed by this, also for the sake of my own dog’s wellbeing.

About: I care for cats and dogs as if they were my own — from cuddles and playtime to sticking to their exact routines. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to seniors needing extra patience and care. Confident with walks, feeding, grooming, and giving medication, I tailor my approach to each pet’s personality so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I currently work from home and my job is super flexible so I can work my hours around playing and caring for your pets. I can do drop ins, walks and pet sitting any time during the week and most weekends. I can easily work my schedule around your pets routine. I have a fenced big back garden and plenty of green spaces around me to play and walk your dogs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand their routines, needs, and any special instructions you provide. I’m careful on walks, avoiding unsafe areas and always using secure leads and harnesses. I believe trust is built through reliability, clear communication, and consistent care — which is why I send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether in your home or mine, I create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for as if they were my own.

Jingxi was phenomenal watching Sylvie while we were away. We needed someone when our regular dog sitter was at work (we work from home) and Jingxi was fantastic at making sure Sylvie went potty, had some treats, and played. She went above and beyond and was so so communicative. We will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs someone to look after their fur babies! 😍

About: I have grown up with a variety of animals my entire life, all varying in ages and sizes. I currently provide pet sitting and walking in addition to my current full time job for friends and family. This includes looking after my sister’s 10 month old puppy and training where possible. I am currently working full time Monday to Friday in a college. With my weekends free, I work from home on Mondays and Fridays which allow me to pet sit on these days. With my job I sometimes do overtime which allows me to book off additional days for pet sitting should I need to. I prefer looking after pets in the pet owners home as I believe pets deserve to feel at home and safe, what safer space is there for them than a space they live in. I will provide the upmost care and respect in your home, I am also DBS checked

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. I know to give pets plenty of love, but I also know when an animal wants their 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. To ensure I could react in the best possible way if an emergency scenario were to arise, I would need to have emergency contact details on hand, including registered vets.

Laura has been amazing caring for our three cats during the past 3 months. Not only has she been to the house every day, she has sent photos and messages to reassure us that all the cats are safe and well. She has reported any concerns immediately. She is very efficient, honest and reliable. We would recommend her without reservation.

About: I have experience of owning and looking after family and friends dogs. I am a keen walker, loving nothing more than being out with dogs locally. I curently work part time in a freelance basis at home so have lots of time to help to care for and walk dogs locally. I am always up and about walking our dog early, then we have a other couple of walks planned through the day. We have an enclosed garden so we have fun between walks playing in the garden. I have a large fully enclosed back garden and live in a village near Selby giving us access to beautiful walks and fields on my doorstep.

About: As a dog mum myself, i am very aware of the anxieties leaving your furry members of the family at home can bring, which is why I have created this home away for home experience for your doggies to ensure their tails are wagging and they are truly happy and comfortable. I have vast experience with a wide range of breeds, big, small and even miniature and would be happy to accommodate any specific requirements to enhance your puppies/dogs stay and ensure all their needs are met. As a sociable, loving and playful puppy, my boy ru loves to meet all the furry companions that stay with us 🐾 so rest assured your fur babies will be included in everything we do! However, if your dog is a little anxious around other dogs or just likes to explore solo, I can accommodate for that too! 🐕 I only work two shifts a week so my availability is pretty broad and I will only be taking bookings on my days off so your fur babies will never be left alone and get all the love and attention they crave ❤️ As part of the pack, your pup/dog will also join us on our many adventures - exploring somewhere new each time we walk, whether that’s the beautiful scenic spots around my house (canal, woodland, open fields) or further afield (beach and doggy parks) where they can enjoy all the sights, smells and stimulation they need. However, I understand this could be a lot for some dogs/puppies so would adjust accordingly. I am also willing to offer a pick up and drop off service, depending on time and distance, to ease the process for you and your fur baby. As a nurse I also have an enhanced DBS check. Your pup/dog will have access to my entire house including sofas and the bed with plenty of space to eat, sleep, rest and play - there’s even a big toy box to choose from 🧦🦖🦴

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.

About: Hello, fellow dog lovers, I am ready to become your fur baby’s best friend!! I have a massive amount of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes. 🐶🥰 My professional experience is that I have been awarded a Level 2 Diploma in Canine Care and Behaviour from the Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour and Training. I am now twelve months into my training to become a Clinical Canine Behaviour Practitioner and Trainer also with the CIDBT. I have trained two weeks at The Kennel Club in Warwickshire, where I learnt invaluable information about dog training and behaviour. I will be spending another week there over the duration of the course. I will qualify by the end of this year, and then will be offering clinical behaviour consultations followed up with personalised training plans to suit the dog’s individual needs. My life revolves around dogs and understanding what goes on scientifically in their cute little brains. 🐶🐾 I currently own three dachshunds called Casper, Pipi and Athena. Athena and Pipi are rescue dogs who were abused by their previous owners, since they have being with me their confidence has grown and they have come on leaps and bounds. I also own a disabled flat coated retriever who is such a cheeky chops, she was born with a clubbed foot and is only able to walk on three legs but that doesn’t stop her at all. In the past I had another rescue dachshund who had intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), who I cared deeply for. So, I’ve a lot of experience dealing with different disabilities and illnesses in dogs and help them to develop and enable them to live their best lives! 🥰😇 Whilst caring for your pup, I promise I will treat them as if they are my own. We will have plenty of fun and many happy tail wags!! Whether your dog is looking for a walking adventure or a comforting cuddle, I am more than happy to cater to any of your dog’s personal needs!! As I study from home, I have a very flexible schedule and can happily fit in when and where I am needed. You will be updated throughout the day and be sent lots of happy pictures, so you know your little angel is happy and cared for. 🏠🩷 Let’s plan a visit and have a paw-sitive time!! 🐾☺️ I’m excited to get to know you and your fur babies!! 😇 I currently work part time, so have plenty of time to look after and care for your fur babies… I’m available every afternoon, evenings and weekends!! I am overly safe and careful when it comes to looking after your precious angels, they’re in safe hands when they are with me so no need to worry

Shunqi is really lovely and my cats loved her. She sent lots of photos each visit and kept me updated on how well they were eating, if they didn't feel like playing that day or if she had any concerns so I wasn't worried at all. My cats have also tended to sulk when I have left them with other people before but they seemed really happy when I got back. Will definately book again in future :)
