“Vivienne was amazing! Great communication! She looked after my dog so well and kept him safe on long leash as agreed. I can highly recommend her services and 100% will be re-booking in the future.”

“If you want someone dedicated to look after your pet, Andrew is your guy. We booked Andrew last minute for a two night stay, there were train strikes over the weekend so he couldn’t get home, so instead of cancelling he booked himself an Airbnb to make sure he could complete his stay, I’m pretty sure he would’ve made a loss financially for the weekend, however, our dog was sick so we had to cancel. A really lovely man and very gentle and kind with our nervous, reactive dog. (He came for an initial visit to meet Lara at his own cost).”

“Annabel helped us with our cat and very timid dog. A couple of nights pet sitting, which we have never done before. Annabel’s patience paid off and slowly gained the trust of our dog, he is genuinely a very complex character, and we couldn’t be more delighted with the experience. We will definitely carry on and book again soon...”

“We could not have been happier with Josie’s care of Misty and our home. Misty had some amazing adventures while we were away and met some new friends, which she loves. Communication was brilliant and we could go away safe on the knowledge Misty was in excellent hands.”

About: With 16 years of experience and a background in animal management, I bring both knowledge and compassion to every pet I care for. I’ve owned and cared for horses, dogs, and small animals, and currently have two dogs and two guinea pigs of my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets — I’ll treat yours like family, providing reliable, attentive, and loving care every time. I have currently dedicated dog sitting and walking to a full time job , This means your dog will rarely be left alone — im almost around at all times to provide attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I provide a calm, secure environment where every animal feels at home. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or yours, I follow your routines closely — from feeding schedules to preferred walking routes. I ensure doors and gates are always secure, use only pet-safe products, and keep a close eye on each pet’s behaviour and wellbeing. You can trust that your furry friend will be cared for with the same love and attention I give my own. We are very fortunate to live on the banks of the River Severn out of our front door opens up to a surrounding of fields and nature where you can walk for miles
“Fernanda is an absolutely lovely lady and Misty liked her immediately. Great communication both before and during the sit and we felt 100% confident that Misty was in good hands. Thank you Fernanda!”

“From the moment I met Marie at the pre-sit meeting I knew she would be the perfect sitter for our dog Misty. I really could not have been happier with the house sit - Misty had a fantastic time as we could see from the updates and was extremely well looked after. Marie is clearly very experienced with dogs, and was lovely to deal with, and I felt absolutely confident that the house and Misty were in the safest of hands.”

“Bethany is a star. Lily is blind,diabetic and 11 years old, not been left for that length of time. Bethany knew how anxious I was, sent me pictures and videos to reassure me. I will definitely book her again. Thank you so much”

“Sarah was ideal and seemed to get on great with the dogs. She kept me informed with pictures of the happy dogs in their walks with her, and took on everything we talked about. Wouldn't hesitate to invite Sarah back again.”

“First time using a dog sitter and it worked out really well. We were away for a couple of days for our daughter's wedding so didn't want to be worrying about our dog at such a special time! Linda was completely calm and reassuring. We received a couple of updates with photos but not too many (we had other distractions). Eva seemed to take it in her stride too! Thank you Linda, we would definitely use you again in the future.”

“Imogen stayed at our place during our weekend get away and looked after our two girl staffies. She was just excellent from start to finish. She regularly sent us updates while we were away which made us feel at ease. She was very good with our girls and on top of that kept our home very tidy. Thank you Imogen.”

About: I’ve had pets all of my life, I currently have a well trained little Shih Tzu, Willow. She’s been with our family since she was 8 weeks old and couldn’t be more loved. I’d like to share my love for other pets by making myself available on here for dog sitting, walks and drop ins. I’m not currently working (I’m doing a house renovation) so I am available pretty much every weekday. I will do the odd weekend of essential too. I wouldn’t have other pets at my house as it’s not enclosed at all, there are horse fields to one side and farmers fields everywhere else.
“Lauren was great and took really good care of Jackson and our house - she even put the bins out for us when we forgot to do it before we left! She kept us updated with what they’d been up to and sent some lovely pictures and videos. We’ve already booked to use her again!”

About: I grew up in a cat family so have a lifetime of experience with feline friends. I fulfilled my love of dogs through pet sitting and walking from a young age as we weren't allowed a dog. Now I have my own place where I often work from home - this means I am available for walks, love, fuss and toilet breaks. Am often work from home so am there to fuss, play and take on walks. Enjoy big outdoor walks and runs I always send updates! I have an enclosed, fenced garden. I know many walking great routes; short, long, to meet / not meet other dogs, away from road etc..
“Stephanie was fabulous with Camarin and Storm. She showed incredible patience with a dog who is alot when excited about new people 😄 It was amazing to go away and be confident that I did not need to worry about the pets at home. I would book Stephanie again in a heartbeat and I am sure Camarin would be thrilled 😄”

“Liv was fabulous. Very calming and totally understating as to what was needed for our teenage Airedale. We would definitely recommend Liv and would use her services if we are ever in the area again. We were able to enjoy our son’s Graduation without having to worry, which enabled us to have a marvellous day.”

“Jessica was amazing at helping me out last minute. I was in the area for a funeral and needed dog care last minute when I found out my dog couldn’t be left unattended where I was staying. Jessica helped me out. She was super helpful and got there early so she helped look after Delilah when I was getting ready and took her for a lovely walk! She sent me update photos. Thank you so much Jessica! You are a star ⭐️”
