“Maxine was absolutely wonderful with Peggy, I felt at ease leaving Peggy. Maxine updated me often and sent photos and videos! Peggy really enjoyed her stay! Will definitely be sending Peggy back x”

“When you leave your dog with someone it is always a worry, however Peter was great and looked after our little girl so well. He gave us updates and photos during her stay too. Would not hesitate to leave Tina with him again.”

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.

“This was our first time using a dog sitter, and I was a little nervous, but Brianna was fantastic. She took great care of our dog Betsy, kept me updated with messages and photos, and made the whole experience stress-free. My dog was happy and well looked after. I would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again. Thank you!”

About: Hi we are Rachael & Aaron two work from home animal lovers. We have both been sitting pets for years now and have absolutely loved it. It's so fun meeting new people and caring for lovely animals. Additional pets are free :) We both work from home I am a Complaints Manager and my partner is a software developer so would be there for your lovely pets throughout the day. We started sitting while working and traveling in our home on wheels and now we have reverted to bricks instead of wheels have continued:) We are frequently between Leeds, York, Durham & Doncaster :) I am extremely houseproud and take pride in my ability to keep a neat and tidy house. I would treat yours with as much respect as my own. Note: should sitting days pass through a weekend we have our kids with us. We both have a very flexible schedule and can pretty much be anywhere any time so we can make ourselves available for your pets 24/7! We both work remotely in IT. We will always care for a pet as if they were our own. I like to make sure that your home is relaxing comfortable and stress free on your return!
“Rebecca was amazing looking after Milo! He stayed with her for 3 nights and it was clear he had a fantastic little holiday. She kept me updated throughout his stay with lots of photos and videos, which really reassured me and put me completely at ease while I was away. Milo looked so happy and was very well cared for, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would definitely book with Rebecca again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their dog!”

“Laura and Chris were superb sitters, I will definite be using them again (should the need arise) kept me informed and popped a few photos on for me. Great location for a dog or even 2, plenty of walking areas and as they have a closed off garden, the dogs enjoyed plenty of outdoor chilling. A big thank to the pair of them, I am very happy, and the dogs were too!”

“We found a perfect place to have our Lola stay!! She was well cared for and Csilla sent photos regularly which was so very nice of her. We would definitely use the services of this professional again. Thanks so much!”


“If I could give Gabbi 10 stars I would!! She was absolutely amazing with my Bruno and looked after him like he was her own. She kept me updated with lots of pictures and videos which really reassured me as this was my first time leaving Bruno with someone who wasn’t family. Bruno also got along really well with Gabbi’s lovely dog Sully and they became the best of friends!! I would 1000% recommend Gabbi to anyone and would definitely rebook with her! xx”


“This was our first time using Rover and Odie’s first time away from family members we thought kennels wouldn’t be the right solution for Odie as he needs a quiet space being an older dog and after hours of scrolling for the right person we came across Michael. Reading his profile gave us reassurance and confidence that he would be the right person to look after our boy with his home offering a home from home environment, quiet space, meeting routines, patience and understanding of his personality he ticked all the boxes! Michael was quick to respond with any queries before we went ahead with booking. We received lovely pictures and videos of Odie out on walks and snuggled up at his home and he looked very happy and content throughout the whole Holiday.We had no worries or concerns at any point. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future with Michael as he was very kind, approachable and genuinely very caring. Thanks again Michael for looking after our Odie boy and it was an absolute pleasure meeting you. Enjoy your thank you gift🍾 Craig, Kerri, Kids and Odie”

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life, growing up in a community where many neighbours and friends had dogs. I also shared a dog for several years, taking responsibility for feeding, daily walks, exercise, and making sure he was happy and well cared for. I have professional dog walking and pet sitting experience in Leeds, looking after dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and always make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. I’m currently available most days and can be flexible to suit your schedule. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your dog gets the care, exercise and attention they need. Your dog’s safety and happiness are always my priority. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, keep them comfortable in their own environment, provide regular updates, and treat them with the same care and attention as if they were my own.
“Aslan loved his stay with Sarah and her family. He was very well looked after and loved and even had a holiday! We were given some great pupdates which was really reassuring for us. We will definitely take our fur baby to stay again on our next holiday. Thank you Sarah and family x”

We left Jasper with this lovely family for two weeks, and I'll admit we were a little nervous beforehand as we haven't had the best experiences in the past. We really didn't need to worry though! They made us feel completely at ease from the very start. We met up beforehand, which was so reassuring, and their communication through the Rover app was fantastic throughout. Over the two weeks we received lots of photos and regular updates, and nothing ever seemed to be too much trouble. It was clear that Jasper wasn't just being looked after – he was treated like part of the family, which meant the world to us. We came home to a very happy, relaxed dog, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Jasper!

James was amazing with our little Holly i was very anxious about leaving her as ive never done before but James and his partner put my mind at rest with plenty of photos and updates on how Holly was doing. Holly was very well cared for and I am so happy with the care she received and as a nervous owner I can 100% say I will be using James from now on should we need to leave Holly and i would recomend him to anyone looking for a doggy sitter
