Devon was so wonderful with Ziggy, he watched her at our place for a few days. Devon was very caring taking her on fun walks, responsive with plenty of updates for us and very respectful of our house. Would highly recommend Devon. Thank you!

Adrienne has looked after our rescue staffie Daisy at our house a couple of times now and we would definitely recommend her. Communication has been consistently quick and easy and Adrienne is friendly and professional 🙂! Daisy is dog reactive and quite strong on the lead and Adrienne was confident managing this, she listened well to our advice regarding strategies to manage her reactivity and asked sensible questions. Daisy is definitely a fan of Adrienne and we have booked multiple other dates for sitting 🐕

About: I've done a lot of cat sitting, usually over a long period of time. Additionally I've had a pet dog for the majority of my life. I'm currently at NTU in my second year. So I should have lots of spare time to walk and care for pets. I'm avaliable mostly in the evenings from 4 and in gaps during lectures and seminars I'm very accustomed to caring for pets, especially dogs and cats. So I will have no trouble feeding and walking pets in a pets owners home.

Kate came and stayed at our house and looked after our giant puppy for a week while we were on holiday. Her communication was great and she sent us pictures of Kiri’s chilling and on walks which was lovely. We will definitely be booking with Kate again. Thanks Kate!

We had Paulina look after our dog, Sid, and our cat, Ember, while we were out, and she was great. Both animals took to her straight away, which was really reassuring. Sid can be quite anxious when we’re not home, but she took him for a walk and kept him calm throughout the evening. Ember was happy and relaxed when we got back too. Although we weren’t there to see everything, it was clear they were both well cared for. Would definitely recommend Paulina to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

Ella was really good when she looked after my 4 month lab puppy! She gave him lot of love and attention and provided updates throughout the day! She also left my house very clean and tidy which was above and beyond! She really helped me out and have booked again with her. My puppy was tired for the rest of the day after lots of play and attention!

Thank you to Laura and Tim for taking such good care of Irvie and also of our home. We were kept updated and assured that Irvie was settled and happy back at home, which really put our mind at ease. Irvie loved his walks and cuddles and looks forward to us going away again so that he can see Laura and Tim again 😀

Peyton has looked after our gsd cross Sammy a couple of times now and we can’t speak highly enough. She’s super friendly, always responds quickly and we feel 100% comfortable and confident leaving him with her. He’s always super happy to see her and is his normal happy self when we get back

On returning home after my trip, I came back to a very happy, healthy, well fed Mopsy. As usual Yeru has done a fine job. I feel she may have struggled a little with uni work, and looking after Mopsy, but that is my fault really, as I have her virtually no notice. I think it may have only been four days, but if she hadn’t stepped up, I would have had to cancel my trip, as there’s no one else, I’d be happy to trust with my dog. I’d throughly recommend Yeru, and hope she is available in the summer, when I go on holiday again. 🤞

Juliana looked after my dog Oedipe all day, and I'm really pleased with her work. Oedipe is a very reserved dog and often takes a long time to open up to new people. Despite this, Juliana showed incredible patience and gentleness in gaining his trust. She took the time to make him feel at ease, and that really made a difference. I know that she took good care of him and that he was in good hands. I would recommend Juliana without hesitation!

About: I have grown up with cats my whole life, and have always been an animal lover. I have experience looking after not only my own pets but multiple other's dogs, cats, rabbits, and even birds I am currently not working, so have large amounts of availability to care for pets! I am happy to do house sittings, extended visits, pop-in visits, and walks as needed. I regularly go on foraging walks, and would love to bring your dogs along. I have a car with ample space to pickup and transport pets as necessary. I have a large secure garden full of green space to run around and explore - there is a friendly dog next door too, as well as my cats who frequent indoor and out .

About: I’ve been around animals all my life. From Border Collies, rabbits, birds to turtles and cats. I’ve always said “I want to live with animals not animals live with me” I love being around animals and pets it personally makes me very happy. I currently have a dog of my own whose breed needs a lot of training. Which means I can use this training to help with your pet too. I’ve worked with guide dog trainers, dog group walkers and even working with the dogs trust behaviourists. I also help care for my mums dog who is 14 so I have experience in senior care. I’ve also owned two cats before and have experience in administering medications following vet’s instructions. I currently work part time so I am free to spend time with your wonderful furry friends ! I offer all days of the week. I do have some regular walks but I will try fit yours in around the best I can. I am happy to come sit yours pets in their own home. I will follow what ever routines and rules you have in place to make sure they are as happy as possible.

About: I’ve got one year of hands-on dog care experience, and I’m also a proud puppy parent — so I truly get the zoomies, the picky eating, and the 3 a.m. squeaky toy concerts. From playful pups to mellow mutts, I adjust my approach to suit each dog's personality and needs. What sets me apart? Patience, consistency, and a genuine love for the chaos and cuddles that come with dog care. I’m comfortable with puppies and have experience working on basic training (sit, stay, and the ever-important “drop it!”). I also have a soft spot for older dogs who need a gentler pace and extra TLC. I’m available weekday evenings and weekends for walks, drop-ins, or home pet sitting. Need overnight care? I’ve got you covered over the weekend — just send me a message and we’ll sort out the details. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine — I plan my days around my own pup’s schedule, so adding another furry friend into the mix just feels natural. If anything, it makes the evening walks more fun (and adds bonus tail wags). Whether I’m coming to your home or welcoming your pet into mine, safety is always the priority. I dog-proof my space like it’s an Olympic sport — no toxic plants, chewable cords, or “mystery snacks” on the floor. In your home, I respect routines and spaces, and I leave everything as I found it (except your pup — they’ll be even more loved when you return). At my home, pets have a secure, calm environment and get the same rules and love I give my own dog. That means lots of play, proper feeding schedules, and supervised outdoor time. And yes, there will be belly rubs on demand.

I had to use this app to each out last minute to find a sitter, due to a cancellation, and I couldn’t be more happy. Andreia was great with my dogs, especially consider one of them is a bit of a nervous wreck. Have booked more dates with Andreia and using her as my new sitter. Highly recommend.

Scarlet has been an absolutely amazing dog sitter for my two Shih Tzus. From the moment we met her, it was clear how caring, reliable, and genuinely loving she is with dogs. She kept them happy, comfortable, and well looked after, and I had complete peace of mind while away. She was attentive to their routines, gave them lots of affection and care, and kept me updated regularly, which I really appreciated. My dogs were relaxed and happy around her, which says everything. I would highly recommend Scarlet to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and responsible dog sitter. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of them!

I am so glad Olaya agreed to take care of my cat Mimi for 4 days. Olaya is excellent with cats, and has really good and calm energy - Mimi opened up to her in minutes. Olaya took the time to engage with Mimi with toys and ensured no disruption to her routine. Olaya is also highly responsible, and she paid a lot of attention to detail, and I felt extremely assured about leaving Mimi in her care. All the information regarding Mimi’s routines as well as the apartment were handled with care and honesty which I really appreciate. Communication was excellent where I received many updates on Mimi. Olaya left my apartment extremely tidy! I am really thankful to Olaya and I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for an extremely responsible and caring sitter.

​Devon is an great dog walker who clearly has a deep love for dogs. He is a very calm and patient person, which is great for Rigby. ​He was happy for me accompany him on Rigby's first walk. Rigby is a rescue dog and can have separation anxiety, so this really reassured him, and it gave us the perfect opportunity to discuss Rigby's specific needs. Devon is knowledgeable about canine behaviour and training, and was a lovely, calming influence on Rigby throughout the walk. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any dog owner.

Shani is absolutely wonderful! Thank you so much for helping us out at such short notice. She took the time to meet our pup, Casper, beforehand to make sure they were a good match, which we really appreciated. Communication was quick and easy, and it was clear from the start how kind and affectionate she is with dogs. We had lots of pictures and updates sent to us through the day on his wellbeing and put us completely at ease knowing Casper was in such safe and loving hands. I came home to a happy and relaxed pooch, and it’s obvious he had a great time. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Shani again—highly recommend! 😊
