House Sitting in South Ayrshire

About: I have taken care of animals since the age of 5. I have cared for fish, hamsters, rabbits, Guinea pigs, dogs, cats, horses, large animals/ farm animals and exotic pets. I am an animal loving person, and have just completed a college course in Veterinary Care and Animal Welfare. I have taken care of elderly pets and young pets and have a good range of experience with lots of different types of animals. I have worked with farm animals, small animals, and cats and dogs. I have also cared for exotic animals before I am currently actively searching for a job as a Veterinary Care Assistant, and during this time I have spare right now I would love to use it to care for animals. I’m available everyday at anytime. I currently have 2 dogs at home so I am hesitant to take care of pets in my house but can discuss this on a case to case basis. I have experience with a range of animals and breeds and have previously looked after family and friends animals in their own homes so I understand what it is like to care for animals and how to look after them in other peoples home, I have also taken care of dogs with behaviour issues.

About: My name is Jessica, I’m 25 years old and currently work in a genomics laboratory😊 I am the biggest animal lover EVER & have always grown up around animals so am comfortable with furbabies and their different personalities! I have 3 cats and 2 dogs of my own, Tilly Nacho and Gizmo🐱 alongside Bella and Molly🐶 Looking to earn a little extra money by helping out in looking after any pets that may require my services😍 I am a patient care giver & would take the time to get to know your pets so we are both comfortable 😌 I have plenty of evening and early morning availability, can also pop in and out over weekends when I’m free if needed. Love spending as much of my free time with animals as possible so this works out great for me! I’ll always ensure windows/doors are secured if your cats are indoor only. I know some cats are a little adventurous at the best of times so as much info about your kitty’s would be great to better my understanding of how to care for them. I love long beach walks and throwing a ball for my dogs so if this is something that sounds like your pet would enjoy, I’d be more than happy to cater for this!

About: I am available at short notice and can do weekends, Mon-Thurs after 5 and fridays after 12:30. I also drive so can access various locations e.g beaches, parks etc if your pet is ok in the car. Passionate about animals and love nothing more than spending time with them. I work in Ayr Monday - Thursday 8:30-5pm and Friday 8:30-12:30pm. I could do early mornings or evenings on these days (and lunchtime on a Friday). I am available at weekends - would be happy to stay in your home or pop in - whatever is preferred. I am flexible to work around your preferences for walking / house sitting. If there were any concerns or issues these can be discussed upon first meeting.

“Rosie was a great dog sitter for our Border Collie, Thistle! She stayed in our home and was very tidy. We loved the updates throughout our time away. Would highly recommend her 💙 🐾”

About: From a young age, I’ve always had animals of my own. I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, tortoises and horses. I also foster for SSPCA. I currently work hours to suit clients needs. Seven days a week, 24 hrs a day . My diary gets booked fairly quickly so as much notice as possible please. I treat your animals as if they were my own. I can do whatever needs to be done at the owners request. Daily updates can be provided

“Jessica took excellent care of our older Staffy during her 4-night/5-day stay in our home. He requires medication and had a slight limp (caused by a little too much running on the beach), so he needed a little extra attention and care. Jessica was gentle, attentive, and clearly mindful of his needs throughout. She managed his medications reliably, ensured he was comfortable, and was sensible about taking him for walks when he was up to them. We returned to a happy, relaxed dog. We would be happy to have Jessica care for him again and would confidently recommend her to others.”

About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs, from family pets to working farm dogs and caring for dogs in a dog day care. With a canine first aid certificate and hands-on experience, I provide safe, loving, and expert care that goes above and beyond. I work a 4 on 4 off rota and during my days off, your pups have all my attention! Whether it’s an adventure to the beach or a night in watching movies, I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my time. My house has a large enclosed front and back garden with a fox red crazy lab boy to keep your dog entertained. In your own home, I will respect all wishes and play where your pup is allowed to play!

About: After 10 years in retail and most recently working in the transport industry, I'm taking the plunge into the world of all things dog where wagging tails, muddy paws and happy adventures are the whole point of the day! Having left school with the mission of being the next female David Attenborough (clearly not achieved😅!) I've followed my heart and looking to build a future around something I truly love 🐾 Whether it's walks, company, a little extra care or just someone who understands their quirks, Dottie about Dogs will meet their every need. I am fully insured, canine first-aid trained and proudly covering Ayr and the surrounding areas. Even though I am still working in my current job, I'm building this little dream step by step, and I am so excited to meet the wonderful pups (and people!) who will be part of the journey 🥰 Thank you for all your support, Emily 🐶🐾🐕🦴 With pet care I will always work around your needs and busy lives! Where I can offer services I will always make sure this is the best for you and your pet. I look to offer and home from home environment, aiming to create a calm and caring environment for your pet! I will adapt this to each service be it walks, drop in or boarding - what you expect I will always provide and a little bit more 🥰

“Taya was absolutely fantastic stepping in last minute before I went away on holiday. She went above and beyond and really appreciated everything she did while I was away. Poppy is a very fussy, stubborn dog and not sure of strangers but Taya had sat for poppy before so was pleased I could book her again. I felt happy and confident that poppy was getting on fab while away with all the updates and a surprise that she was eating her food as she is usually stubborn and can go days without eating so I knew that she was very relaxed and comfortable with Taya when she told me she was eating. Absolutely amazing experience with Taya, would recommend 100%.”

“Jennifer is just THE BEST. We booked her to stay in our home with our dog, a staffie named Ringo, for two weeks and we could not have asked for a better experience. She visited us not once but twice (at our request) prior to the booking to ensure we were confident and comfortable. Ringo had the time of his life with Jennifer. She took him on so many walking adventures – and she provided photos and videos of them every single day. Ringo says she was a magnificent cuddler, too. In the past, we kennelled him at a “luxury” kennel but we worried about how much time he was spending alone. It always put a damper on our trips away as we worried about him and this time, we had no worries at all. Jennifer communicated with us multiple times each day. There were a couple of unexpected events (power outage for one) and Jennifer handled them with grace. We were relaxed and happy because we knew Ringo was, too.”

“Megan looked after our Yorkie and Pekingese dogs over a few days, she was so lovely and very reliable. The dogs were walked each day and seemed so relaxed when we returned. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone. Thank you Megan.”

“Denise and her partner were great sitters and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Our dog and cat were very happy with them, and Denise sent us daily updates. The house was spotless when we returned - the bedding was even laundered and fresh towels put in the bathroom. They even thought to leave us bread, milk and butter. So thoughtful, communication was excellent and it felt good to know our home and pets were so well looked after.”

“I had not engaged a complete stranger to look after my animals before and did have worries about doing so but after meeting Emma my worries vanished. She looked after my 4 dogs, 14 chickens, plant pots and house. I had left loads of instructions and she followed every one to the letter. Everything was perfect when we arrived back, no issues whatsoever. The dogs were happy, the hens were happy, the house was clean, the planters were blooming and she had brushed the dogs. Emma is totally trustworthy and a lovely person to have in the house. When we go away again she will be the one we call on. Thankyou Emma.”
