“Good communication with daily reports and photographs. Even managed play time with our shy cat! Thanks for looking after our two fur babies 🙂”

“This was our first and hopefully not the last visit from Lucy, and I have to say I was very impressed. Lucy came across as professional, friendly, and very approachable. She did exactly what I asked of her. Things that are very important to me, which Lucy sent to me, are daily pictures/updates.”

“Excellent! What more can we say. Danielle did everything and more that we asked her to do. She was good with the boys; changed litter and made sure their every need was attended to. Jack and Will were semi-feral cats and this is the first time they have been left. When we came home, they were chilled and just as when we left them. All thanks to Danielle. A job well done. Would highly recommend Danielle. Wendy and Barbara”

“Oksana was an absolute delight. She is so lovely and kind and kept us updated the whole time. We booked drop-in home visits and Oksana took time out of her day to meet us and our cat before the date booked to make sure everything we wanted and needed understood. Our cat was very happy. Will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Judging from the pictures Marshmallow was very happy with Lauren.”

“First time using Rover, we will defo be using again. Rachael and Aaron put us at ease and kept us updated on a regular basis. Our cat is very fussy about which humans she likes, and seemed to accept them quite quickly.”

About: Have had pets my entire life and helped friends and family with walking and dog sitting when they had other commitments so happy to help. Free almost everyday and can move things around if needed on short notice. I am happy to drive a little to complete a visit too. I have a pet myself and she is very special to me so I would treat your pets as my own as I understand how much it can mean to trust someone else with them.

“Laura has done an excellent job of looking after Coco. I would highly recommend her and would be happy to have her back to look after Coco again.A job well done.”

About: My name is Olivia and I’m a university student at Northumbria University. I have had cats for the majority of my life so I’m well experienced in taking care of cats. I also have over a year’s experience of looking after other people’s cats on cat in a flat with my Dad. I currently have 2 cats called Gary and Charlie.

About: I have years of experience in large-scale kennels and dog daycare centres. I am qualified in canine first aid and have training in canine behaviour and welfare. I have my crazy boy big Moose so I’m used to the nutters! I am able to cater for dogs with injuries or conditions that need exercise suited to them due to my vet physio background:) I am a practicing veterinary physiotherapist mon-thurs. Fridays, Saturday and Sundays I am available for dog walks and drop ins! On these days I can be flexible on times: morning, afternoon or evenings. I always follow any instructions left by the owner. When walking dogs, I have an SUV with a large crash tested crate to transport dogs to and from walking fields if desired. Alternatively, I can remain in the local area that you usually walk your dog, up to you!

“Ella-Marie was lovely, punctual, and completely reliable. She was thorough in everything she did, wonderful with our cat, and provided excellent, detailed reports throughout. Highly recommended.”

About: A bit about me 🫶🏼 Hi! I’m Sophie but you can all call me Soph, I am a dedicated and trustworthy pet sitter with a genuine love for animals. I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life, growing up and into adulthood with both cats and dogs. I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can rely on and trust to look after your fur babies🐾 I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority, and I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own. I offer plenty of cuddles, attention, and affection from our very first hello to the final goodbye. I work from home, which means I’m flexible and able to adapt to you and your pet’s needs. I can work from the comfort of your home, helping your pet stay relaxed and content in a familiar environment while you’re away. As I work remotely, access to reliable WiFi is essential during house sits. I have experience with a wide range of animals, from kittens and puppies to adult cats and dogs, as well as reptiles of all shapes and sizes. With me the tiniest of babies to largest they are all welcome. I believe every animal deserves love, patience, and attentive care and that’s exactly what I provide. I also have experience caring for dogs with a wide range of needs, including those with allergies who require close attention to diet, exercise, and overall routine. I’m confident managing feeding plans and ensuring everything is tailored to keep them comfortable and healthy. I’ve also cared for senior dogs who need a gentler approach, including slower paced walks, support with stairs, and extra patience and understanding especially for those experiencing incontinence, where regular toilet breaks are never an issue. I’m experienced in administering oral medication safely and calmly, and I always take the time to make pets feel at ease. Whether it’s providing attentive care or simply giving plenty of belly rubs and affection, I’m dedicated to ensuring every dog feels happy, supported, and well looked after. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply companionship, I tailor my care to suit each pet’s unique personality and routine. Meet & Greets 🐾 Meet and greets are an important first step for you, your pet, and myself to ensure we’re the right fit for each other. Our initial meet will last around 15–20 minutes, giving us time to discuss your pet’s routine, needs, and preferences so I can provide the highest standard of care. It’s also a great opportunity for me to learn about your pet’s personality, likes, and quirks helping us build a positive and comfortable bond from the start. Most importantly, it allows your pet to meet me at their own pace, have a good sniff, and feel relaxed and confident in my presence. You are your pet’s best friend, and I promise to be a close second🫶🏼 I work from home Monday to Friday, which gives me the flexibility to work from anywhere with a reliable WiFi connection. This allows me to be fully present and attentive to your pet throughout the day. I’m an early riser, so morning walks and toilet breaks are never an issue, and my schedule easily accommodates both morning and evening walks. Working from home also means plenty of time for play, companionship, and, of course, lots of cuddles🐾 I also have a secure, fenced garden—perfect for safe outdoor play and fresh air. I’m ideally located near woodland areas, offering great opportunities for longer, enriching walks in nature. If your pet is crate-trained or requires crating, I have the space to accommodate this, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable when resting or left alone. Please note that my home does have stairs, so if your pet prefers to sleep upstairs or on the bed, they would need to be comfortable using stairs or be okay with being carried. When in pet sitting in someone else home I ensure your house is treated as thought it is my own. I will ensure your house is clean and tidy on your return and throughout my stay. Your pet is my priority so ensuring they feel safe and content is vital. When out on walks unless confirmed by yourself during our initial meet and greet, your pet is kept leaded and with me at all times. I from experience know trust is very important so I am happy to do a few sessions ahead of my stay with your fur baby to ensure you and your pet feel safe and happy.

About: I’ve always had dogs when growing up, 4 and 5 at a time, working and none working dogs which I loved to walk and train. I enjoy the outdoors and spend most of my free time walking and enjoying nature. My availability will mostly be weekends and school holidays as I work term time. However, I live a few minutes away from my place of work, and provided pet is not anxious or happy to be left for periods of time (no more than 3 hours), I am happy to consider during the week care to help owners if needed. All dogs will receive a minimum of three good walks a day and anything else that is needed. I live in an area which has access to lots of walks, long and short. As well as plenty of walks including beaches and trails just a car journey away if pet is ok to travel. I have a fenced garden, safe for dogs of all sizes. Your pet will be treated like a family member, lots of walks, kisses and cuddles, a place on the sofa and a bed to sleep in.

“Very friendly and efficient communication. Lovely photos and videos shared during visit. All of my concerns were listened to and accommodated and the visit went smoothly.”

About: I am a qualified dog trainer & behaviourist with over 10 years of experience with dogs across the UK, in pet homes, working roles and rescue centres. Whether I am training a dog, walking a dog, or taking care of them in the home, I believe in positive reinforcement and meeting their needs. My routine will fit around your dogs needs. Whether that's walking, house sitting or training, I will prioritise meeting your dogs needs and providing the quality service that they deserve. I live on a farm and have hours of quiet, countryside walks outside my doorstep. I also have a variety of leads such as 30ft long-lines, meaning your dog can enjoy the freedom to explore, while having the safety of being on lead.

“Great checking in on ducky through the week ducky seemed to really enjoy the drop in from him and the photos I got throughout were great to show ducky was happy”

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to me. As well as having dogs of my own, I have professional experience working in animal kennels, where I cared for dogs and cats of all different breeds, sizes, ages and personalities. I currently have a French Bulldog of my own, so I know first-hand that every breed has its own individual needs. I’m particularly familiar with brachycephalic breeds and understand the extra care they can require when it comes to exercise, warmer weather, breathing and knowing when they’ve had enough. My kennel experience has made me confident around all kinds of dogs, from smaller or more nervous dogs that need a little extra patience and reassurance, to large, energetic breeds that love plenty of exercise. I’m very active myself, so I’m more than happy with long walks, energetic dogs and lots of playtime! I also hold an Enhanced DBS check, so owners can have that extra peace of mind when trusting me with not only their much loved pet, but their home too. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in somebody else’s care. I’ll take the time to get to know their personality and routine and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Your pet won’t just be looked after they’ll be treated like one of my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I’m available around my working hours during the week and have more flexibility at weekends. I’m very active, so walks, playtime and keeping energetic dogs entertained fit naturally into my routine. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s usual routine as much as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine and individual needs, so I’ll always follow the care instructions you provide. My previous kennel experience means I’m confident caring for different breeds, sizes and temperaments. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them out for walks, they’ll be treated with the same care, patience and attention I give my own. I also hold an Enhanced DBS check, so owners can have that extra peace of mind when trusting me with not only their much loved pet, but their home too.

“Louise was fantastic with our young cat. She was very responsive and efficient with her care. We came home to a very relaxed and happy cat, would definitely book her again!”

“Roger was great, he looked after our girls, gave them food and treats, played with them and looked after their litter. It was really nice to be sent photos of them whilst we were away. Thanks so much Roger.”
