“Joy stepped in at the last minute when someone else cancelled on me on a different platform. She's been excellent taking care of my two fur babies while I was away for a whole weekend, keeping them well fed, gave them plenty of interaction time, and made sure that they didn't make any messes for me to have to worry about, so I've been able to properly relax on my trip. I highly recommend her to anyone else who's in need of cat sitting services.”


“During our trip, Alex took great care of my cat and provided me with a lot of lovely photos and videos of my cat. If I go on a trip next time, I will also choose him to take care of my cat.”


“Samiha is the best cat sitter! She's patient, kind, communicates well, and funny. The cats like her, too. One of my cats requires medication (a pill and an oral syringe) and she's great at catching him and forcing him to take it. He can be a stinker about it but Samiha never complains. She is also very flexible and understanding with me, which is great because I'm terrible at planning ahead and knowing exactly when I'll need the pet sitter. She's the best, an easy 5 star review.”


About: I started by walking my own dog when I was 10, now I'm not in a position to have my own I love to meet and play with dogs and cats belonging to my family and friends. I'm friendly, caring and considerate, and quickly bond with animals. I have even become the second favourite person in the world to my sister's dog who doesn't give trust easily. I get a full on singing and dancing welcome every toner i visit! I have also built trust with an ex stray cat of my girlfriend, who has given meet kicks and likes to come for some fuss now and then. I work part time, between 8-10:30am and 2:30-4:30pm (or thereabouts) on weekdays, so i have plenty of time during the day to walk and care for your furry family. I'm also available dinner evenings and weekends too. I always leave other people's homes as I find them and maybe even a little better if there is time. I will make sure that your pet has water and anything else it reasonably needs for their health and safety before I leave.

“Lauren was a great sitter for Harvey and we have already booked her for another time. The house was exactly how we left it and she provided daily updates and photos of Harvey while we were away. We have come back to a very chilled and happy cat. Thanks again Lauren.”


“Brilliant care given for our 3 cats! We were away for 2 weeks & Megan was very attentive to them and made sure they had everything they needed - including getting their food delivered to her address when our package was stolen from our doorstep!”


About: For 8 years I cared for my own dog, a loyal companion who taught me the patience and love every pet deserves. I’ve also looked after my family friends dogs, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing gentle care. Your dog will get: playtime, walks and endless belly rubs | strict adherence to feeding and other routines | regular updates so you can rest assured. Losing my own dog deepened my understanding of how precious yours is - I’ll treat them like family. My current work is extremely flexible, I can design my schedule around pet care so your dog or cat gets my undivided attention. Whether it’s midday walks, overnight stays, or last minute check ins. I prioritise punctuality and consistency. I’m also available weekends and holidays, ensuring your pets routine stay uninterrupted while you’re away. At your home, I follow your pets normal routine to minimise stress: feeding on their schedule, reinforcing training rules (no sofa access? No problem), and sending photo updates. For dogs I provide walks/ playtimes tailored to their energy level. For cats, I focus on interactive play and quiet companionship. Your home will be left tidy, with fresh water, clean bowls and happy pets!

About: I grew up in a family that always had pets, especially dogs of all sizes from Shih Tzu to Mastiff. In 2020, we adopted a kitten named Bagheera, and later, in 2021, we welcomed a puppy named Baloo into our family. I love spending time with them, especially taking Baloo for long walks. However, as I have recently moved to Sheffield, I find myself missing my furry companions during the week. Therefore, I am looking for companions to whom I can take care. I am experienced in providing care for both cats and dogs, including walks and playtime. I work full-time with office hours from 9 am to 5 pm. However, I am available for a drop-in visit during lunchtime at 1:00 pm, as well as before and after my office hours. I'm also comfortable with doing sleepovers at the pet's home." I can provide all the necessary safety to your pets without compromising their play and walk times. I will make sure your dog is on the lead during walks.

About: As a huge animal lover who’s had dogs all my life, caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve gained hands-on experience through multiple house and dog sitting roles. I’m trained in canine first aid, have volunteered with dog rescues, and hold a First Class degree in Animal Science and Bioveterinary, with an offer to study veterinary medicine. Beyond qualifications, I’m simply someone who connects deeply with animals and treats every dog as if they were my own. You can relax knowing your dog will be safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. I have graduated from Animal Science and Bioveterinary at the University of Nottingham, and currently on my gap year, so I have a lot of time! I will be starting Veterinary Medicine in April 2026, which has been my dream for as long as I can remember. My top priority is creating a safe and comfortable environment for them, building trust and respecting their individual needs. I will follow your routines and instructions closely (feeding times, medications, number of walks, toilet breaks) so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. I’m trained in canine first aid, and as an aspiring vet, I always pay close attention to their behaviour and wellbeing. You can trust that your dog will be cared for with love, respect, and complete attention to their individual needs.

About: As a proud dog parent to a 4-year-old poodle, I understand how important it is to find someone who truly cares for your pet like family. I have hands-on experience with daily care, basic training, and understanding dog behavior. I’m patient, reliable, and always make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved during every walk or visit. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I’m usually available in the mornings and early afternoons, but I’m also flexible and open to scheduling walks or visits at other times when needed. Since this is part-time for me, I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs whenever possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine closely—whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or giving them space to relax. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable, and I treat their home with the same respect as my own. I’m attentive to details and love building trust with both pets and their owners.

“Carol was great. She popped round the day before we went away for me to introduce the pets and show her where everything was. Carol was more than happy to look after 3 pets for us for a very reasonable price. We received pictures everyday of the pets. When I messaged Carol directly she replied immediately. Will definitely be booking Carol again!”


“Leah provided excellent care and we felt Jasper was well looked after and loved. Contact was good and we got many photos of Jasper enjoying their time at Leah's. Would recommend!”


About: I grew up with dogs and have 3 year old a mini pinscher of my own, he is my absolute king ! I am a very active person and take my dog everywhere with me. My dog and I love a long walk ! I currently don’t work and I am free to walk and/or look after your pets most of the day. I need to work my schedule around my tennis training. Although I live in a flat I go for longer walks with my dog and would likely take yours on with us for a good sniff ! I keep dogs on the lead for safety reasons, I also do not want owners to be anxious.

About: I have loved dogs since the age of 2 and have always wanted a dog of my own. Unfortunately, I am not yet in a position to have my own, so I would absolutely love to be able to look after yours!! I know how precious any pets are to their owners and how important it is that they are well looked after while their owners are away. I have often helped out with friends and family's dogs, taking them on walks, feeding them, giving them cuddles and treats. I also have experience looking after other pets, as I have had hamsters, chickens, guinea pigs and cats. I am a Trainee Solicitor and I mostly work from home so I am available at all hours of the day. My office is also only a 5 minute walk from my home, so even on the few days that I am in the office, I am able to easily pop out at lunchtime if needed. I can provide any level of care that your dog requires, whether this is lots of exercise, lots of cuddles, and/or lots of treats. I appreciate that all dogs have their own personality and temperament so I will of course follow any instructions I am given, to ensure your pup is looked after to the same standard of care as you provide them on a daily basis.

David B.
“David is a gentle soul that animals just love. He has been walking my 2 dogs for a couple of years. They are both small but a little quirky - Lexi is very nervous when she meets new people. When friends have tried to walk Bo she often point blank refuses to walk and has to be carried!!! However, both dogs love their “uncle David” and cannot wait to go on walks with him. David has sent me lovely videos of the dogs living their best life. I think if they could choose who to live with, other than me, they would both vote for David. Lexi & Bo highly recommend David for all dog walking needs!”

Joseph F.Star Sitter
“Joseph grew up with a labradoodle. He was amazing with him—always patient, playful, and incredibly caring, especially when our dog got sick. Joseph made sure he was comfortable, helped with his meds, and never missed a walk. He’s the kind of person pets naturally trust and feel safe with. I’d trust him with any animal.”

Saurabh C.
“Saurabh has had dogs his whole life and feels life wouldn’t be complete without them! He is currently ‘dad’ to a bouncy 2 yr old cockapoo and feisty 3 yr old cat, who both adore him. Saurabh is gentle with all animals and very caring. He has experience of training puppies and is confident and firm with boundaries, making sure commands are clear, simple and consistent. He will take great care of any animal in his charge and treat them as if they were his own. He is reliable and trustworthy, genuinely an all round lovely human being!”


Aitana M.
“Aitana looked after my Jack Russell call Django for 10 days, she was amazing!!! Took him on many wonderful walks and kept good care of him. She also gave him baths and lots of treats. Would highly recommend can’t thank her enough. He wasn’t very happy to see me come home”


Jiayu S.
“I’m happy to recommend Jiayu as a caring and responsible pet sitter. She has helped take care of our dog, Snow Ball, on several occasions, and we’ve always been impressed by her attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals. Snow Ball can be a little shy at first, but Jiayu was very gentle and respectful of her pace. She quickly gained Snow Ball’s trust and made her feel comfortable, whether it was during walks, feeding time, or simply spending time together. Jiayu always followed our instructions carefully and would send us updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She treats pets as if they were her own, and I could tell that Snow Ball enjoyed her company. Jiayu is reliable, communicative, and truly loves what she does. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any pet parent looking for someone trustworthy and kind.”
