House Sitting Skelmanthorpe

About: I have grown up with working spaniels and labradors on a farm, as well as having these dogs as working they have been loved pets. They are walked 2/3 times a day which is either at the beach in Saltburn or in the woodlands. I live in Scissett at the moment and the countryside/woodland is just perfect to have a furry companion by my side to enjoy it with. I'm the kind of person who will cross the road purposely to pet a dog! I work full time, but I work from home 2/3 days a week. I'm always available to put in leave also if this makes sitting easier, or if you are happy with the dog to come into my office with me then you can sure expect them to be coming for coffee breaks and treats with me. Pets really are part of the family so they will be treated as so in my home, whether they would want to sleep on my bed, on their bed, or anywhere else that's fine with me. They would be given endless cuddles and love while being with me.

“Torri had just house sitted for me for one night. She came to a greet and meet before and was very keen to talk about all my dogs little quirks so she could look after him the best she could. My woody absolute loved her , he ate all his food which in the past other people that look after him haven’t been as successful . She is patient loving and caring. Woody loves her so much do he slept with her on her bed. Looking forward to Torrie looking after him again .”

About: I have taken care of family friend’s dogs when they go away. I have a great love for dogs. I also work for a large company that takes pride in pet care . I work full time however the office I work in allows pets on site so there is planet of opportunity for your dog to make many more Fridays. There is a secure nature walk on site at work so no need to worry about being stuck in the office all day! I do not work over a weekend so I am also free for any weekend walking or looking after. I have an enclosed and secure garden for any dog , we have lovely dogs in our neighbourhood and surrounded by plenty of long walking areas to keep everyone busy and happy. I don’t have any pets in my home , so your dog will have all our attention

About: I’ve always loved dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I provide a safe, calm and caring environment where your dog will be taken good care of. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, playtime and cuddles, while sticking to their usual routine as closely as possible. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout their stay. Whether your dog is energetic and loves adventures or prefers a quiet day relaxing, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable and well cared for until they’re back home with you. I have a flexible schedule and WFH during the week and off work on weekends so your dog will receive plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding or just relaxing together, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I have a secure, fully fenced garden where they can safely enjoy time outside, along with a clean, calm home. As I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog will have my full attention during their stay. I’ll follow their usual routine for feeding, walks and any medication if needed, and I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

“I always feel so confident leaving Pepper to go on holiday when Laura is taking care of her. Pepper is an anxious cat but seems to settle so quickly with Laura which makes me feel at ease. Laura provides lots of updates and photos, Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely fantastic! Contacted Helena very last minute after being let down and she was amazing. My mum never gets to leave the house with her needy doggo but he didn’t even miss us one bit. My mum got to spend the day with her grandson who lives in London. Something she rarely gets to do. Brilliant sitter and all the updates put an anxious owner at massive ease. Thank you so much!”

About: I have four years of experience looking after dogs, including feeding, walking, minding them at home and keeping them in a comfortable routine. I’m calm, reliable and confident with all breeds. Whether it’s daily walks, toilet breaks or giving them attention and reassurance, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy and well cared for. I have a really flexible weekly routine, which means I can give your dog plenty of attention and proper one‑to‑one care. I’m available most weekdays from mid‑afternoon onwards, and weekends are wide open for boarding or longer stays. Because my schedule isn’t packed or rushed, I can take my time with walks, play, training and keeping your dog settled. Whether it’s regular drop‑ins or last‑minute bookings, I’m able to fit pet care smoothly into my week and make sure your dog gets consistent, relaxed companionship. I always ensure that the environment is safe and secure for the pets in my care by surveying the fencing and potential risks. I take onboard the pet owners requests with careful diligence to provide the best service possible.

“From the very start, Jodie was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. Pepper was relaxed and happy when I returned, which says everything. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, it put my mind at ease knowing Pepper was in such good hands. It’s clear Jodie truly understands and love cats, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again or recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter.”

“Delenn has been great at looking after our cat Hols while we've been away for a week. She was easy to communicate to from the beginning, when trying to organise everything, and came over beforehand to met us and Hols. She's been very respectful of our house and we've found everything in perfect order. We have already spoken about her looking after Hols again, especially as he seems to have warmed to her quite quickly. We would definitely recommend her services to others”

“Leah was absolutely incredible. She kept me informed, kept the flat tidy and most importantly kept Theo happy! I would highly, highly, highly recommend Leah. I will 10000% be using her again”

About: I’ve spent over 6 years living and working in a dog hotel, where I cared for pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities every single day. From playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs, I’ve learned how to make every dog feel safe, happy, and loved. I’ve also grown up surrounded by a variety of breeds my whole life, so I’m comfortable understanding their different temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. Whether it’s going for walks, giving belly rubs, or keeping a consistent routine, I treat every dog like part of my own family. My schedule is very flexible! I work from home most of the time, which allows me to give plenty of attention and care to your pup throughout the day. My weeks are usually very open, so I can easily work around your dog’s specific needs — whether that’s regular walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles and company. I’m happy to adjust my schedule to fit what works best for you and your furry friend Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in a clean, secure flat that provides a calm and cozy environment where your pup can relax and feel at home. Since I have a flexible schedule, I’m around most of the day to give your dog plenty of attention, supervision, and care. Walks, playtime, and potty breaks are always on a consistent routine, and I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. You can trust that your furry friend will be in a peaceful, loving, and well-managed space.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats ever since I was born. I grew up on a mini farm with multiple animals and honestly I care more for them than humans lol. I’m a trustworthy person who will give your little family member all of my love and attention. I have a flexible job in a family business so this is something I would love and could never see this as a job. I’d be happy to look after any animal any day. I have a secure, large garden where your furry friends can run and play as much as they wish to! Pets can sleep wherever you prefer. I’m happy to have them on the beds/furniture or not at all.

About: I've spent over a decade caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments — not just as a sitter, but as a true companion. From high-energy puppies to senior dogs with special needs, I understand their unique care requirements. You'll never wonder how your dog is doing. I provide regular photo updates, check-ins, and stay in close touch so you're always in the loop. Pet care is a meaningful and regular part of my weekly routine. I dedicate time each day for walks, feedings, litter box cleaning, and quality time with the animals I care for. I carefully plan my schedule to ensure I’m fully available for each pet — whether for daily check-ins, overnight stays, or weekend visits. Even with other responsibilities, pet care remains a top priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I follow detailed instructions regarding feeding, medications, walk schedules, and any special quirks or preferences. I respect the pet owner’s home, clean up after the pet (litter box, food area, accidents if any), and provide updates with photos or videos. My goal is for the pet to feel safe and relaxed in their own familiar space — and for you to feel confident while you're away.

“Jade stayed in our home with our dog Hank for a week while away on family holiday. Jade was amazing, she looked after Hank and you would have thought he didn’t miss us at all. We came back to a very happy boy like we left. She cleaned up brilliantly in the house, kept good care over the garden and plants and even washed bedding that was used. Highly recommend this professional and very warm individual for home care and any pet care. We will use her again in the future that’s for sure.”

About: I have owned dogs since I was a child, so have vast experience. I have looked after them from puppies until end of life. I much prefer animals to humans. I am DBS checked so you know your animals are in safe hands. Your dog will be spoilt as if they were my own I am fully flexible with care! I’m self employed in my day job so am able to work around you! I can fit in walks or sits which work round you! I have a fenced front and back yard. I have children who know how to behave around dogs. I will treat your dog as I do my own (spoilt)

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life from a young age. I’ve raised my own dogs from puppyhood through to adulthood as well as having cats and I regularly care for my brother’s Staffy, who is the sweetest soul! I was also fortunate to learn puppy training to a very high standard from an ex-police dog handler, giving me a strong understanding of dog behaviour, training and communication. I’m a very nurturing, patient and soft-hearted person who genuinely loves getting to know each animal’s individual personality. I understand that every dog is different so I’m happy to adapt my approach to suit their temperament, routine, boundaries and needs whether they’re energetic, nervous, independent, cuddly or somewhere in between. I absolutely love being outdoors and spend lots of my own time walking and hiking, so getting out for adventures with a four legged companion is something I’d genuinely enjoy!! I also have experience working in the care sector, so I’m confident and responsible when it comes to medication, routines and individual care needs. Ultimately, I want every animal in my care to feel safe, loved, stimulated and comfortable while their owners are away 🐶❤️ As a self-employed artist, I manage my own schedule, which gives me lots of flexibility and means I can dedicate my full attention to your pet when I’m pet sitting. I can plan my work around their routine rather than leaving them waiting around for me. I’m particularly flexible with boarding and longer stays and I love being able to give pets plenty of walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles and company throughout the day. I’m happy to discuss individual routines and work around what your pet is used to at home. I live on the ground floor of a beautiful old mill with lovely high ceilings and a huge area of greenery surrounding the property. While this isn’t a private fenced garden, the green space is frequently used by local dog walkers, so there are plenty of opportunities for toilet breaks and fresh air throughout the day. As the area is not fenced, I would always keep dogs securely on a lead when outside unless their owner has specifically discussed a suitable alternative with me. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual needs and will follow their usual routines, feeding instructions, medication and house rules wherever possible. I’ll make sure they have a calm, safe and loving environment, with plenty of company, walks, playtime, enrichment and cuddles. I’ll also keep owners updated and let them know promptly if I notice anything unusual about their pet.

“Paige was absolutely wonderful and I cannot recommend her high enough. I genuinely believe my dogs were furious it was me when I walked back in through the door and not Paige! They had a wonderful time and now I am going to have to make more arrangements to go out so they can see her again! Book with confidence you will not be disappointed”

About: I had a miniature poodle named Jack Sparrow who very sadly passed away earlier this year from old age. He was 16. I have also taken care of friends dogs in my home whilst they have been away. Regular walks are guaranteed. Your dogs will be loved and well looked after whilst in my care. My cat can easily be taken to my parents house while I am caring for your dog x I work from home so would be able to be with your dogs continuously. If I am caring for your dog, they would be my sole focus while they were with me so I could follow their usual routines. I have an enclosed fenced garden with grass, decking and stone. Dogs would be kept downstairs unless fully house trained in which case would have free rein.
