About: Hi, I’m Sophie, a passionate and experienced pet carer with over 20 years of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether it's daily walks, overnight stays, or just extra belly rubs, I provide a loving, home-from-home environment that keeps tails wagging and pet parents at ease. I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, and I always tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. Safety, routine, and affection are at the heart of everything I do. With me, your dog gets more than just care—they get a new friend. Fully insured and reliable, I treat every furry guest like family. Whether it's a peaceful walk or a comfy overnight stay, I make sure your dog feels loved, secure, and happy. Let’s make your pup’s day a little brighter! I'm currently working part time, in view to fully focus on my business more in the next couple of months. My dogs are important to me In My Home: When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can relax, play, and stick to their normal routines. I follow each pet’s feeding, exercise, and sleep schedule closely, and make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation. Whether it’s a cozy nap spot or a game of fetch in the garden, I make sure they feel right at home. In the Owner’s Home (if applicable): When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their usual routine to reduce stress and keep them comfortable. I ensure they’re fed, exercised, and given lots of love and companionship while you're away. I also keep your home tidy and can send updates so you know your pet is happy and safe. Dog Walks (Group & Solo): I offer both group walks and one-on-one walks, depending on your dog’s needs and temperament. Group walks are perfect for friendly, social dogs who enjoy companionship and play with others, while solo walks offer focused attention for dogs who prefer a quieter stroll or need special care. Every walk is safe, structured, and full of fun, and I always ensure your dog gets the exercise and enrichment they need

About: In mid- late teens I worked in a boarding kennels for 4 years dealing with different sized dogs and cats. I currently own a springer spaniel who is 10 years old and a sprocker who is 7 years old we also have 2 rabbits who live outdoors. I’ve grown up with spaniels and do occasional dog boarding for family and friends and other clients We have 2 spaniels who get walked daily regardless of the weather we go out! My dogs are never locked up for any longer than 6 hours mainly through the week due to work! However they have a walk before we go to walk and can get let out during the day if need to! Our dogs go mostly anywhere with us and will fit in with our life events. If you’re happy for your dogs to be kept inside with mine through the week while I’m at work (7 hours) then I can help through the week also! We are in a lovely village called Farnsfield so we are surrounded by lovely countryside I have a fenced and gated garden which the gate gets locked in the evening so no one can get onto our property. I have 2 spaniels to give your pet company. If you prefer for your pet to be crated then this can be done also.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs and other animals my entire life and had always loved looking after other family members dogs as a child. I cared for my dog from a puppy since I was six years old by taking her on walks and feeding etc. From about 16 onwards I have had more responsibility such as house sitting at my grandparents and taking care of their two dogs for a week and also taking care of my dog on my own if my family has been away. Also in her old age I had to give my dog various different medications so I know how that might be important for your dog. My family and I now have a young cocker spaniel who I have been helping to train and take care of. I have recently graduated and currently working part time. This means I can fit pet sitting around my work shifts as I typically work a few days a week. If I were to house sit then I would be sure to follow any instructions given for the care of your dog such as food quantities, giving medication, ensuring your dog is let outside frequently enough and any other relevant safety measures that need to be followed.

About: After many years helping out and then working at my mums dog rescue, and after the loss of my beloved dog, Blue, a few years ago, I decided to start my own dog walking/pet sitting business. I have huge amounts of love for all animals and I have many years experience in the care and welfare of dogs. Having worked at the dog rescue for many years I have gained so much knowledge in every aspect of doggy welfare. I have engaged with abused, neglected and very scared dogs that have come from all sorts of different backgrounds. Many of which have needed copious amounts of love, rehabilitation and training. I have spent time with Dogs Trust learning different training techniques as well as time at Battersea dogs home learning about care and welfare. After losing my dog Blue a few years ago my house has felt very empty and I miss the companionship of a dog, a humans best friend. I have time on my hands at the moment and would enjoy nothing more than helping you to look after your dog or pet, taking them on walks, pet sitting, popping in to give them company or food/snacks and toilet breaks. I have experience of all breeds from the tiniest Chihuahua to large Great Danes. I am fully insured and have my own transport. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you are looking for help with your beautiful dog or any other pet. I also have experience with cats, chickens, alpacas, donkeys, small furries, birds to name but a few. I also have equine knowledge, having ridden and owned horses for over 30 years. Serving Newark and surrounding areas. Please get in touch with any questions or enquiries. Many thanks. This is my only business so I will be readily available to look after your beloved pet(s). I am very flexible and can cater to your specific requirements. Ensuring that your pet is safe and happy is my number one priority. This includes whilst they are in their home, and out for walks. I would never let your dog off the lead unless previously discussed with you. I am happy to administer medication for your dog including tablets, liquids and medications in food, ear drops and cleaning etc. I have my own car and can transport your pet to the vets in an emergency situation.

About: I absolutely love dogs and welcome any breed and age into my home to make it their home whilst you are away. I have had a range of pets growing up including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and even a duck so I am also able for pop in visits for a wide range of pets! I currently have a 3 year old Cocker Spaniel called Mabel. She is great around other dogs since we regularly look after our friend’s and family’s dogs who range across all different breeds and sizes and she certainly loves the company as much as I do. I can adapt to whatever needs your dog requires and if your dog loves a cuddle then you’ve come to the perfect place 🥰 I promise to send regular pup-dates (if you would like them!) and to love your pooch as much as my own! And of course, plenty of walks are a given! I’m also more than happy to arrange a meet up before you go away should you wish for your pooch to meet me in advance! I work from home so I am around to give your pups plenty of attention during the day. Alternatively I can easily pop in for visits or walks on my lunch break and I am fortunate enough to work flexibly so can ensure they get as long a walk as required. Similarly I can pop in for all other types of pets too! I have a fenced back garden and live near plenty of secure walking spots but can also walk your dog in your local area if you’d prefer. I can also easily crate your dog if required. Regardless of how long I will be looking after your pet I will provide regular updates along with photos so that you can be fully assured that your pet is in great hands!

About: I've owned two dogs at home for over a decade, taking care of them and making sure they stay fit and healthy with regular walks. I have taken both of my dogs to puppy training and feel confident in looking after young pets. I understand that trusting someone to look after your pets and make sure they stay safe is a big ask but I can assure you I am more than capable of keeping your pets safe and entertained. I'm currently a student at the brackenhurst campus studying environmental science, as well as working as a lifeguard at the local leisure center part time. I tend to have plenty of free time in which I can drop in. At home we walk our dogs everyday despite their age since exercising is important. However at uni I do not have the luxury of seeing them often so it would be a pleasure to look after local dogs. I am able to handle dogs of any size and age. Feeding, bathing, walking and entertaining dogs are not a problem for me.

We went away for the weekend and Sophie was brilliant with my 2 girls Nala & Noodle. They can be a handful and quite demanding at times, but she made them feel at home and comfortable, she sent pictures throughout which made me comfortable too knowing they were left in capable hands and being well looked after. Highly reccomend.

Sarah is a fantastic companion for our pack! We have 3 dogs, 2 of which who are very large & strong- and dog aggressive, the other can be anxious and with age has become a bit of a medical cocktail! In the past I've found it hard to trust someone with our dogs because of their complex needs- but Sarah has proven herself more than capable of handling all 3. They go crazy (happy) when they see Sarah coming to the house for walkies. When Sarah stays overnight, I always know the dogs have been in great hands- all instructions followed (and there's a lot!) and a pristine house returned to. Honestly much cleaner than how I left it! It's a pleasure to work with Sarah- a reliable, trustworthy, friendly person who is quick to reply to messages and very understanding of all things canine! I strongly recommend her!

I don’t know where to start! Ellie is the most caring and genuine person I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! Me and my wife love holidays away and weekend breaks and Ellie is always our first choice! I trust Ellie thoroughly with our dogs and they’re always so happy whilst with her. She provides them with lots of walks and treats and she sends us regular photos, videos and updates whilst we are away! She always goes that extra mile! If you’re looking for someone who thrives off of care giving, fussing and a genuine love for dogs, Ellie is the sitter for you! 🐾
