“Rebecca did a truly wonderful job of taking care of our two senior Burmese cats! From our first meet and greet it was clear that she was super professional and knew exactly what she was doing, and she did not disappoint. Rebecca was extremely punctual (sometimes even early) and we received thorough updates on how the cats were doing each day, as well as tons of photographs which were great to see. It was obvious that the cats were really well cared for, Rebecca kept them well fed, gave them medicine and spent lots of time giving them cuddles and attention, something that is really important to us. The cats were clearly very happy and even seemed to miss her when we got home. We were totally at ease, trusted Rebecca completely and didn’t have to worry at all about the cats whilst we were away - would not hesitate to recommend!”


“Aliyah knows Shadow from previous drop in visits and he has always been very comfortable with her. Communications as always were good and we received lots of great photos from the drop in visits. Ultimately we came back to a happy cat. Would certainly recommend.”


“Kerenza did a wonderful job looking after our two cats over the long weekend. She was tidy, consistent, and communicative. I felt throughout that our cats were in good hands! I will definitely try to book her again the next time we need a sitter!”


“Emma and her family were great during a late notice cat sitting for our old cat with several medical requirements! I was at ease with lots of updates and really happy with everything thanks so much!”


“Kirsty was happy to come and check in on my puppy at short notice, and seemed to leave him very happy! We were comfortable having Kirsty in the house, and she seemed great around my dog. I will reach out again if required☺️ We also got loads of photos and very detailed feedback as to what happened during the visit.”


“Emma was great. Went out of her way to do a last minute cat feed and kept us regularly updated throughout. Great communication. House spotless in cat feeding area too. Highly recommend.”


“Hiu Yee did drop in visits to my place to take care of my cats while I was away for 2 weeks. She was very flexible, open to communication and did a really great job ! I would definitely engage in her service again.”


About: Trusted by 30+ owners. Cared for 50+ pets. Dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fishes and even a snake. Whether your pet is elderly, young, recovering from an injury or dealing with anxiety, I can provide the quality care needed to give you peace of mind. I've always had a soft spot for animals, but it wasnt until a pet sit for my cousin in 2022 that I decided to go all in on pet sitting as something to pursue alongside my studies. As I live right in the middle of Nottingham City, I have good access to the surrounding areas and am available at short notice. I have an Enchanced DBS certificate (highest clearance) available at request. The nature of my course means I can study anywhere with good wifi. Send me a request and I'll let you know promptly if I'm available. I have experience with young pups still potty training, elderly dogs and dogs recovering from injury. As I live in private accommodation I cannot dog sit in my home (Dog boarding).


About: I'm a lifelong pet owner and enthusiast with personal experience caring for a wide variety of animals including cats, dogs, rabbits, rats, and turtles! Having the joy of growing up with so many different animals has given me a deep understanding of different species' needs and behaviours. I truly love animals and recognise that each pet is an individual with their own unique personality and temperament. I'm adept at quickly building rapport and adapting my care approach to suit your pet's specific needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and loved whilst you're away. I'm comfortable and capable of providing any additional services your pet may require, from administering medication to following specific dietary requirements. Your pet's wellbeing is my top priority :) I have a highly flexible schedule to dedicate to your pet's care. This allows me to offer extensive availability throughout the day, evening, and weekends, making it easy to accommodate your specific needs. Whether your pets requires toilet breaks, multiple walks, or just plenty of companionship and playtime, I can easily fit their routine into my day. This consistent presence ensures your pet receives the dedicated attention and consistent care they deserve and will help to ease any anxiety they may have whilst you're away. If your pets stays with me for daycare, their safety and comfort are paramount. My home in Nottingham is a secure, pet-friendly environment and I am lucky to have a huge and lovely garden that dog friends can explore. I ensure that all my house plants are non-toxic to animals, being a pet owner myself, and potential garden escape routes are secured. My home is regularly cleaned and sanitised to maintain a healthy environment also. If you need house sitting/drop-in's, my priority is to maintain your pets routine your home's integrity, making sure their is trust for both you and your pet and giving everyone peace of mind. I will meticulously follow any detailed instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, walk times and play to minimise disruption and stress for your pet. Your home's security is also taken seriously, I will follow any instructions for locking up and ensuring your home remains secure. I am always discreet and respectful of your personal space. I will familiarise myself with your pet's vet information, emergency contacts, and any specific health concerns. In case of an emergency I am very calm and am prepared to act swiftly and responsibly, keeping you informed every step of the way. I will provide you with regular updates, happy silly photos of your pets so you know they are safe and being well looked after as well as videos, whatever you may need for peace of mind!

About: I have always had a passion for all animals since I was young - I currently have a pet corn snake called mr wiggles:) - I made it my aspiration to want to take care and help your pets! I have a qualification in a level 3 animal management course as well as currently in my 3rd year of a Bsc veterinary nursing degree. Being a soon-to-be qualified vet nurse means the world to me. I would like to share that passion through helping care for your animals as I understand they are family to us :) Starting with experience in grooming to having simple skills of bathing or clipping claws if needed. I have experience in the veterinary field so any medication required I'll be happy to administer. I have also worked in multiple boarding kennels where I provide care for various breeds of different ages. I understand and prioritise each dogs individual needs :) I am currently a vet nursing student doing a placement at medivet 4 days a week, however mondays & weekends I am free to take care of your loved one. pls note that my partner Jack will also be tagging along with me but I will be fully responsible for the care of your pet:) I live in a 3 storey house, however with no garden I can redeem that by enriching walks and safe spaces in Nottingham. I can drive so I am more than happy to care for your dog in the comfort of their home. I know how important it is to build trust due to my past experience working with owners. I hope to build that with you through regular updates and pictures on how your pooch ( or cat!) is doing. I am also very knowledgeable and have a high awareness for being neurodivergent, queer & special needs friendly and of all differences we may have x no question is a silly question!

About: My experience with pets is mostly from caring for friends' and family's animals and also from supporting clients and their pets in my day job. I myself have 4 cats and a snake, dog is a big dream of ours but we know we aren't currently in a position to have one. I have experience with bigger, stronger dogs, but also with small nervous ones. I have been working as a carer looking after vulnerable individuals for almost 6 years now so I want to translate those skills and my caring personality onto pets as well. I currently work a reduced schedule, Tuesday to Thursday usually for 8-9 hours but other days of the week I am quite flexible with the support I can provide I have spent most of my career looking after people in their own homes, I believe this requires me to be trustworthy and respectful and I know I have these values and always promote them to the best of my abilities. My job also requires me to regularly have my criminal records checked so this is an additional level of security and peace of mind for any pet owners that I will be supporting.

“Callum looked after my two cats whilst I was on holiday and I would definitely recommend to others. Callum was very attentive, reliable and respectful in our home and cared for our cats very well.”


About: Since I was young, my family have been breeding bull dogs and I helped out a lot. Growing up we have had many dogs that I have loved to take on long walks. Currently we don’t have any at the moment which has left me wanting to go out and be with dogs again! I love long walks, hiking and being outdoors. I am currently waiting to enroll on a pets first aid course! Having left university, I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to care for your pets. Apart from my driving lessons, my days are wide open - leaving me with lots of time for walks, playtime, and cuddles. Pet care is the perfect way to fill my week with something I truly enjoy, while making sure your furry friend gets the attention they deserve. Whether I’m walking dogs or house sitting for any type of pet. My priority is always their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m trustworthy, reliable, and respectful of your home as everything will be exactly as you left it. I make sure pets are never put in unsafe situations, follow their routines closely, and give them plenty of attention and care while you’re away. You can relax knowing your home and your pets are in good hands.
