About: I have always taken charge since I was a kid, I always wanted to be involved taking care of my dogs and cat. This makes me feel very comfortable around dogs and allows me to thrive in there company, wether thats on the sofa or on a long walk. I am flexible on how to fit your pet into my schedule, as i have just finished full time education but currently have a part time job, the hours when i am free can vary from week to week. I offer cuddles, lots of yummy treats and a calm environment for your pets to be in, my no.1 priority is their happiness and enrichment. I am able to adapt walks to a steady pace or keep up with a high energy pet.

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.

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.
About: Always been around pets, especially dogs, since childhood. Absolutely love animals, and so does the wife. Both now semi-retired so we are looking to fill our time by doing something we love. Looked after friends and family pets previously… the longest stint being a Victorian Bulldog that we looked after for 7 months! The wife and I are semi-retired. I’m 46 years old and she’s slightly older. Both fit and healthy and love animals and being outdoor and active. Fenced off back garden. Live in a fantastic rural area with plenty of countryside to explore. I’ve been walking 10 miles a day for 27 years as a postman, all weather, so your dog will be in for a treat.
“Alison has been great. Really pleased that we found her to replace our previous sitter! She has been very flexible with us changing around dates and has been very tolerant and patient while getting to know our grumpy little dog!”

“Kashia was brill with my two cats during a long weekend away! One unexpectedly ended up on antibiotics a couple of days before my trip but Kashia was happy to give them. I was sent plenty of pics whilst away and was confident they were in safe hands the whole time. I came home to two happy boys and would definitely recommend Kashia to anyone looking for a cat sitter!”


“This is the first time I left my cats with anyone other than family. I didn’t need to worry. Brontë sent me photos and updated me after each visit. The cats obviously loved her as they came out from under the bed for cuddles. Could not recommend Brontë more and will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Delenn was great at taking care of our cat Ian, communication was quick and pleasant, we had photo updates. I felt safe leaving Ian with her. Would definitely ask for her help again. Thank you!”


“First time me booking with them, they showed up 2 minutes early ! Shocking I know , actually got Luna to show her face what was a surprise and sent me some photos what was nice and did everything on the list I asked them to do . They took their shoes off as they came in the house what a crazy amount of people don’t do these days ! 10/10 would book again”

“Leia was brilliant . I was very anxious about leaving my cat for first time since the death of his best feline friend, they were a bonded pair. Leia was so supportive and very kind and friendly. I relaxed as soon as I met her and new she'd take good care of him, which she did. She kept in touch , sent regular messages so I knew all was ok, so was able to enjoy my holiday. Leia is very consensus and did a brilliant job, always on time and took great care of my cat. Thank you so much Leia.”

“Arranged a couple of drop in visits at home for our bull terrier Daisy whilst we attended a wedding for the day. Emmie called in as planned and ensured Daisy had a couple of walks/toilet breaks and was fed. Kept in touch during the day and sent pics”

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.

About: From a family of dog lovers - I am the designated dog sitter! From small to large breeds, I have experience and am very comfortable in caring for all. I currently work flexibly so can be available to care for your loved ones at home whilst I’m working at home - or on weekends for complete devotion! My job is very relaxed so walks and breaks will be a plenty during the day. I have a private and gated garden, based on a quiet cul-de-sac. Dogs are welcome to roam my house and garden freely - a home away from home!
About: I have owned dogs since they were born 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 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)
“Jodie was able to accommodate looking after my little pup Apollo at last minute despite issues with the booking system. I was left feeling at ease with the detailed update left after her drop in session. I can see from the photos that Apollo was at ease with Jodie. Thank you so much x”
