Thank you Victoria for looking after Dash and Minton! You set our minds at ease by visiting beforehand and you kept us informed about how they were doing. The pictures of them were just adorable-it looked like they had a great time with you! Thank you again, and we would definitely recommend you!

Another great visit from Amy who is helping do drop ins with our little puppy! She’s very reliable and has such a lovely way about her when Sandy. She’s even been able to do emergency drop ins when needed! Highly recommend.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and dedication I bring to every dog I look after. I’ve been a dog sister (my mum's dog) for over 10 years, so I understand dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I’m extremely reliable, caring, and attentive, and I always treat each dog as if they were my own. I’m fit, healthy, and active, and I walk every day, which means your dog will get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time tailored to their energy level. I’m confident handling dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, including seniors who need extra patience and gentler care. I’m naturally calm, affectionate, and loving (dog kisses are always welcome!), and I focus on creating a safe, happy, and stress-free environment. Whether it’s long walks, companionship, or simply making sure your dog feels secure and loved while you’re away, you can trust that they’ll be in caring, capable hands with me. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full time as a teacher, so I’m available for dog walking in the evenings and on weekends. I already walk daily, so fitting pet walks into my schedule is easy and consistent. Dog boarding is available on weekends only, which allows me to give dogs my full attention, plenty of exercise, and lots of companionship without weekday time constraints. I plan my schedule carefully to make sure every pet receives dependable, high-quality care, love, and attention during the times I commit to. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. I always take time to understand a dog’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, training cues, and any special requirements so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, dogs are treated like part of the family. They receive plenty of love, supervision, regular walks, playtime, and a calm, safe environment. I keep routines consistent and make sure dogs have their own space to relax while also enjoying lots of attention and affection. In a pet owner’s home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely. I focus on maintaining your dog’s normal routine, providing walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and any basic care needed. I’m reliable, tidy, and trustworthy, and I always make sure pets feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

Fernanda was brilliant with our cat, making sure he was fed and was given his medications before also ensuring he was well looked after and given plenty of fuss and attention - he seemed very happy when we came home and the pictures and video updates we were sent daily gave us peace of mind. Would definitely recommend Fernanda and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again in future.

About: I have cared for animals from a young age, growing up with cats as beloved family pets. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of feline behavior and needs through my experience with a wide variety of pets, including cats, dogs, rabbits, rodents, and reptiles. My work at an animal rescue center, caring for larger animals like horses, goats, and chickens—many with anxiety or behavioral issues—has strengthened my patience and attention to individual needs. When it comes to cats, I take the time to understand each one's unique personality and offer the same love and attention I would give my own. Whether it’s playing, grooming, or administering medication, I’m committed to ensuring your pet feels comfortable and well cared for. I currently work remotely on a flexible schedule so I can do pop-in visits to suit you and your pet. Evening and mornings work best but day visits can be arranged. The services I offer are entirely tailored to you and your cat's specific needs. Trust is the foundation of any pet care service, and your cat’s safety and security are my top priorities. I will carefully follow your instructions, whether it's maintaining their routine, administering medication, or ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in their home environment. You can count on me to provide attentive, reliable care, giving you peace of mind that your cat is in safe hands during each visit.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, from puppies to reactive rescues. I appreciate that every dog is different and wants a different level of love and attention. I live an active lifestyle so if your dog loves adventures (and doesn’t mind the car) I’d be more than happy to take them along. As I said, I have it on good authority that I’m great at fetch… I have the luxury of a work from home role. This means I can be available for your pet all day. I love a lunchtime/after work walk and to read in the evenings - especially if there’s a pooch to cuddle while I do. I can do home visits before your booking to meet your pet with you so they’re used to me. Additionally this gives us time to tour any off-limit rooms for me and the pets as well as crating them if necessary.

Thank you so much for looking after Oliver! He’s had a lovely time :) Sarah is a wonderful pet sitter. From meeting Oliver for the first time and playing his favourite game with him to build rapport to the last Rover Card update, she has provided a quality service and Oliver has been so well looked after. He’s had lots of play, treats and even a brush, it feels like he’s had a little mini break at home :) Will definitely be booking with Sarah again. Thank you!!

About: I train, breed and have fostered guide dogs for a number of years. We love all animals and offer a safe loving and fun environment. I'm at home working as a carer, i also craft from home. Dogs are my life alongside my husband. We have lots of free time to spend with your furbaby. We have a secure fenced garden full of toys and play areas with cctv. Our 2 Labradors love having company. We offer plenty of enrichment for those unbearable hot days where it's not safe to take out for walks due to the heat. I have plenty of time,energy to spend with my own girls who love to spend time with newbie playmates. Ball chucks and long walks are a must in our daily routine. I also hold a Enhanced DBS as I volunteer craft days for the local council and also do Facepainting for children, my calendar fits around these activities.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life and have experience caring for a range of breeds and ages. I currently have a 2-year-old Jack Russell and a Cockapoo, and previously owned a Labrador and two cats. I regularly care for pets for family and friends, including feeding, walking, playtime and general care. I also have experience caring for newborn puppies, including one of my own, so I’m comfortable with young, energetic and high-needs pets. I am a recent graduate looking for a full time position. Therefore I am flexible with dates and times. I can do mornings, afternoons or evenings. I have a secured fenced garden and plenty of room for all sized dogs. I have 2 dogs to keep your pet company who have a lot of energy and love to play.

Oliver had a lovely time being cared for by Jess!! She took the time to meet him beforehand and he immediately took to her which was reassuring, and that was before any treats had even come out!! I received lovely updates and heard that there was lots of playtime and some treats which he loved. I came home to a very happy cat, will definitely rebook!! Thank you, Jess :)

About: My name is Sam wells and I am 29 years old. I have been looking after dogs my whole life, I was apart of a dog walking agency for a while also I have fostered dogs with Battersea dogs home for many years to get them into a new home. I love all dogs of all shapes sizes and temperaments, I have worked with dogs that are not trained to walk on leads and helped the owners train them so they no longer pull and also I train in recall and reactivity. I also do basic training of dogs if needed. I love being around all animals and between me and my partner we will always make sure your dog is supervised. I have also completed a few animal first aid courses so I’m up to date with that should you need it. I hope that I can be of service and come to meet your pup When looking after dogs they will be my full time priority, that will be my only job so your dog will be fully looked after 24/7 Lots of cuddles and play time with treats and games inside the house and then run abouts and walks outside of the house, can’t wait

About: Hi I'm Kim, an enthusiastic do lover from birth. I've always been around dogs from a young age. I've cared and loved my own terrier for 5 years now and he is the loveliest little boy you will ever meet. It can be a nervous time trusting a stranger with your fur baby but my aim is to treat your dog as if they were my own. I am more then happy to broaden my experience and care for other breeds and wonderful animals. I will also send you photos and videos and keep you updated on what your doggo is up to I live in a friendly neighbourhood in a cosy, and safe environment with a fenced off garden to run around in. I regularly go out for walks with my dog the same time every day. I try and mix things up and visit different places or routes to make it interesting. Feeding is also part of the routine at the same time, day and night. Your dog will have toys to play with and a friend to socialise with in my very cosy and open home. Dogs have free reign of the whole house, Chilling on the sofa or cuddles in bed, water is regularly topped up and an abundant of treats are always on stand by

About: I’ve been an avid animal lover as long as I can remember, having owned my own dog since age 7 and cat since age 16 I have grown to learn more and more every day. I have dog walked and sat for many friends, family and neighbours before as well as having completed a year of work experience at a veterinary practice where I came in contact with every breed, size, shape and temperament of both dogs and cats! This valuable experience has helped me develop my knowledge in pet care and stimulation. Looking after my dog in his last senior years also taught me what senior dogs need, as well as good medication taking techniques. I have done many dog training classes before in a rang of areas including obedience and agility. My passion lies with animals and always will, I thrive in giving pets what they deserve! I’m currently working 8-5pm Mon - Thurs and 8-1pm on a Friday. This allows me to be free on weekends, Friday afternoons as well as both early mornings and late evenings in the week. I drive and own my own car meaning transport is not an issue. I have a large semi-enclosed garden and field with many areas for your dogs to explore and run! I myself am an avid hiker, meaning I know many nice areas for your dogs to go as well as loving to take them on the long, stimulating walks they deserve.

About: Both myself and my partner Amy have had dogs all our lives, and love having them around. I work from home near the quarry with a fenced garden. I/we will give them attention and regular walks, and they can roam the house and garden as they see fit. I work from home most days, and our plans vary weekend by weekend. I live close to the quarry and have a fenced garden. We are very relaxed and want the dog to feel at home with us, having fresh water, attention and walks. We have always loved dogs, we will look after them however you tell us, but generally lots of attention and walks! They can make the house their own!

Amy connected with Bob really well. We were very relieved as, although timid, he can be fiesty and prone to nips and claws! She sent a message and videos after every visit which was great and very reassuring. He really liked Amy and even allowed head rubs! She really is a cat whisperer. Bob is an older cat now and Amy did not mind clearing up after him with his runny poos! A bonus. We will definitely invite Amy to look after Bob again and He is in total agreement as he loved all the treats and fuss she gave him! 😺😻😹
