“It was amazing to go on holiday and know we were leaving our reactive dog in safe hands at home in the place she feels most comfortable. Shannon gave brilliant and reassuring daily updates, and looked after Poppy so well. Highly recommend!”

“Grave arrived with plenty of time for me to explain how to look after Nelly. She sent us updates throughout the day and we came home to a happy dog who had been well looked after. Would definitely book again.”

“Grace took excellent care of our cats and our home while we were away, and also sent a bunch of very cute videos and photos so we knew our fluff balls were safe and happy. If you have Grace overnight, she is tidy and respectful of belongings and space. Highly recommend her for your cat sitting needs. ”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the age of 14. I was the neighbourhood/ family friend dog sitter. Pet sitting in their homes as well as dog walking I was the go to girl. I have an older frenchie, who is crate trained and low energy 90% of the time (loves play and snoozing). If your animals do not get on with others, he has an alternate owner to stay with. Please just let me know. I work from home permanently so your pets needs will fit into my work schedule very easily. Whether I am pet sitting in your home or dropping by my full attention will be to your animals. If your dogs are ok with others, Charlie would love a park play date / walk. If he is welcome to sleep over he is strictly crate trained and will be dropped home after breakfast and morning walks. Let me know your preferences. He will never be left with your pet without me there. We respect your home and pet’s comfort. Caring for your fur-baby will fit perfectly into my working from home (full time) day. From play time, walks and park fun your pet will have a purfect day. My full attention will cater to any special needs.
“Ellen was absolutely fantastic looking after my elderly dog for four nights while I was away. Because he has a few additional needs, I was naturally a little anxious about leaving him with someone new, but Ellen completely put my mind at ease. She followed all of my instructions carefully, provided regular updates on how he was doing, and it was clear he was being very well cared for. I loved hearing about what they were up to, and she took him on some lovely walks too. Knowing he was safe, happy, and in such capable hands made all the difference. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Ellen’s services again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter.”

“Nikeisha is great - calm, thorough, and seemingly unfazed by our animals’ complex needs. Nikeisha provided the perfect amount of updates and we felt very reassured that Zola and Tig were in safe hands. We’ve already rebooked Nikeisha and are sure our animals will look forward to seeing her again!”

“Amazing job as always. Our dog is terrified of fireworks but we knew Hattie would take great care of her, so we felt able to get away. Hattie always looks after the house really well too, leaves it very clean and tidy, and even washes her bedding and towels. Thanks a million xx”

“Hyland took great care of our dog and house, making sure to take our dog on regular walks and kept her mentally stimulated and kept on top of her medication and treat schedule. She made sure to message us, and reply quickly to keep us updated. We very much appreciate everything. Great sitter.”

“Joseph is very gentle and understanding with dogs. He coped admirably with the early stages of Cities house training. He gave regular updates with pictures, I had no concerns leaving City in his care and would happily do it again.”


About: Hiii! I’m Paris and I’m 23. I love animals and I’ve always had different pets growing up - I am such an animal person. I would like to say that I’m a compassionate person and I love helping others too 😊. I have a cat myself, his name is Shadow and we adopted him when he was young. He’s my little companion and best friend and I would like to think that I’d also be able to be a friendly face to your cat too!
“Ada has been looking after our Golden Retriever puppy Ella for the last 4 months. Every week Ada has turned up perfectly on time and is super communicative with great pictures! We have had to occasionally ask for Ada last minute to which she has happily agreed to, which is fantastic. Would recommend Ada to anyone looking for a great sitter!”

About: I have had pets all my life. Including cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, rats, and a crested gecko. I have had animal experience for over 8 years, through work experience at Whirlow farm, veterinary clinics, and dog groomers. I have also completed a veterinary nursing honours degree and have been working as a veterinary nurse for nearly 3 years. I also volunteer to take a clients dog out for walks each week. I am currently working full time so will have time to spend with your pets before and after work. I could also nip back to your house during my lunch breaks depending on the distance. I currently have house cats. One does go out in the garden on a harness, so if this was part of your cats routine I would be happy to also do this with yours. I am happy to take dogs out, let them out in the garden, or crate them if needed.
“Alice took care of my elderly dog for a week. She stayed with him at my place and was absolutely amazing! She sent regular updates including photos from walks and my pup seemed incredibly happy. She was very responsive over text, I would 100% recommend her to anyone.”

“Sarah looked after our house and dog for three weeks. Absolutely no concerns at all. Sarah kept us updated and sent us photos of our dog and he was clearly very happy and well looked after. Would definitely recommend Sarah.”

Ada has been brilliant- she came to meet my Frenchie Ralph the day before and I had total confidence in her then. She let me know when she arrived and left. Sent pics of Ralph and was very communicative. Would definitely use her again. Thanks Ada! Highly recommended

Alex looked after our two dogs for the first time, and we couldn't have been happier with the care he provided. We left home feeling completely confident that they were in safe and capable hands. Alex is enthusiastic, trustworthy, and immediately puts you at ease. He kept us updated regularly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care.

Rhianna was amazing! She was so accommodating to my Mabel's routine and regularly sent updates so we could see how she was doing. And from the pictures and videos, it looked like Mabel had a great time! Would definitely love to have Rhianna look after Mabel again should we need to.
Fay looked after our dog Frankie at our house while we went on holiday and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after her! Fay was so attentive to Frankie’s needs and made her feel so comfortable, she kept us updated with lots of photos and we felt totally relaxed knowing she was in safe hands. Thank you Fay for looking after Frankie so well, we are very grateful 🐾

We felt so assured and comfortable leaving our 12 week old puppy with Shannon for 2 days, they took care in knowing his routine and clearly love and know a lot about dogs (and puppies!) We'd highly recommend Shannon and I know Bertie our puppy would love to see them again!

Hyland was so lovely! Mango got lots of lovely cuddles and they had plenty of sleepovers while we were away, which was very reassuring. The only very small thing is we would have appreciated a quick pic each day; but that’s on me for not clarifying. Will certainly reach out to her the next time we’re on holiday! X

Callum did a great job house sitting for my Bernese mountain dog, Ammy. Ammy is a big dog and a big character, but Callum took it all in his stride and did a fantastic job of looking after him. When we got home it was clear that Ammy was really happy and got on super well with Callum! Callum was reliable and made sure ammy was fed, walked twice a day and had plenty of interest and company - and provided regular updates. He also did a lovely job of looking after the house while we were away, leaving it clean and tidy. We would absolutely book Callum to house sit again.

Isla stayed in our home with our dog, Lola, and our cat, Maki, and we couldn’t be happier with her care. She sent us frequent photo updates, and it was clear they were having a great time with her. She also left the house clean and tidy after her stay. Isla was an amazing sitter, and we would absolutely book with her again.

Thank you SO much Anna!! My usual dog sitter had to cancel last minute as she has the flu and Anna stepped in at very short notice to look after George (my 9 month old Springador)! George has clearly had a brilliant day with Anna and her partner. Anna sent me some lovely photos of George and I would definitely recommend her as a dog sitter! Thanks again ☺️

Priscila took very good care of our beloved pooch whilst we were away. Willow is a large dog who does not get on with all dogs. There were no issues whilst she looked after her and we were provided with regular updates and photos. The house was spotless when we returned and Willow seemed very well looked after. Priscila's communication was great, feeding and medication instructions were followed and she was very quick to reply to communications. I would recommend her strongly to any dog owner!
