Alma was very easy to communicate with. She went out of her way to meet my dogs before I confirmed the booking. Very trustworthy, I felt very comfortable booking her twice in one go. She kept me updated with pictures and made herself feel at home (as requested).

Kayleigh is an amazing dog sitter. She most recently stayed with our dog for 10 days while we were away and did a terrific job. She is very reliable and sweet, and we can really tell how much she genuinely loves spending time with our darling girl. Thank you so much <3!

About: As someone who has had animals all my life, caring for pets comes naturally to me. Over the years, I have owned and looked after a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, and chickens. This lifelong experience has taught me the importance of providing every animal with the care, attention, and routine they need to feel safe and happy. I genuinely love animals and enjoy spending time with pets of all kinds. From energetic pupps to senior cats, I appreciate that every animal has its own personality and needs. The only exception is snakes - while I respect them, they are where I draw the line! I am experienced with dogs of all sizes, including large breeds (I myself have a beautiful Great Dane), as well as senior dogs and cats who may require extra patience, gentle handling, or medication. I also understand the importance of following specific dietary requirements and feeding routines to ensure pets stay healthy and comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for your home, I treat it with the same respect and responsibility as I would my own. Whether it's keeping your pets company, maintaining their daily routines, watering plants, collecting mail, or ensuring your property remains secure, you can have peace of mind knowing everything is in capable hands. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care so that both you and your pets can feel relaxed and comfortable while you're away. I look forward to being your pets' new best friend while you are away :) NB: New to this app I'm currently working part-time, remotely as a personal assistant with a flexible schedule, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. I am an active person during the day and will gladly take long walks with your pets or play with them around the house and in the garden. During the evenings, I love spending snuggled on the sofa, reading a book or binge watching a new series. Your pets' safety and wellbeing are always my top priorities, as well as the safety of your home. I take the time to understand each pet's routine, personality, dietary requirements, and any medical needs before every sit. I carefully follow all owner instructions and keep emergency contact and veterinary details readily available. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I treat every home with the utmost respect, maintain confidentiality, and provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I also ensure your pets' environment remains safe, secure, and stress-free by keeping routines consistent, maintaining clean feeding and living areas, and paying close attention to any changes in behaviour or health. My goal is to provide the same level of care, comfort, and security that I would expect for my own beloved pets.

Ralph was completely faultless. He stayed at our house to look after our disabled French bulldog Ivy for a weekend. We were somewhat apprehensive about it all but on meeting him we were filled with confidence and the experience was great. Not only was he excellent with Ivy, who requires very specific care, but he was incredibly clean and left the house as if he hadn’t been there. Nothing bad to say and will definitely been requesting him again.

About: I have loved dogs and cats (and all the other animals!) since I was a kid, as I grew up on a small farm. I always enjoyed their company, and they seem to enjoy mine ☺️ I had a black lab called Brian in my adult years and a cat called Simba. My heart broke to pieces twice when I lost them. I have always been actively seeking dog and cat sitting opportunities, especially before and after Brian. My longest dog sitting was nearly 6 months long, and I still go to visit him whenever I can as we have formed a lovely bond. I currently work for a company producing smart devices as well as other products for dogs (soon cats, too!), so I am very familiar with the dog & cat world and their welfare is very important to me (as well as all the other animals!). I work full time in a 9-5 office role, but I am based mostly from home and generally have a good degree of flexibility throughout the week, with the occasional exception when I need to be in the office or attend meetings elsewhere. This means I can usually fit pet care easily around my schedule. For dogs, I can provide walks before work, during my lunch break, and again after work, as well as plenty of companionship throughout the day. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so daily walks and quality time with pets fit naturally into my routine. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed while their owners are away. I usually care for pets in their own home, as I find they are happiest and most comfortable in familiar surroundings. For dogs in particular, this almost always means that I stay in the owner’s home so they can keep their usual routine and enjoy the comforts they are used to. I am happy to discuss having a dog stay in my home if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always look after both pets and homes with care, respect, and attention to detail.

Rita is a fabulous pet sitter, I’m so glad to have found her on here. She has a natural knack and love for animals which absolutely shows, and as a pet sitter she is friendly, responsible, and a fantastic communicator. Rita provided overnight stays for us & having our cat and our house in her capable hands really took so much stress out of our time away. She sent us many lovely photos of our happy boy with lots of little updates while we were away and also helped us out with many little extras around our home above and beyond simple cat feeding. She really exceeded our expectations in so many ways, and is just such a pleasurable person overall to communicate with. Our house was absolutely immaculate when we returned home and our cat was happy, calm, and had clearly been very comfortable in Rita’s company. Now that we’ve found Rita, we suddenly feel free to think more about nights away and have already made plans to book her again soon. I wholeheartedly recommend Rita for pet and house sitting needs & look forward to more future bookings with her ourselves.

Kleo provided exceptional care for our dog Jellybean. It was our first time leaving JB with a sitter since rescuing her just a few months ago so, naturally, I was a little nervous. But Kleo came to meet JB twice before we left for our trip, which really helped. She was super communicative the whole time (1 week), sending us photo and video updates and checking in with any questions about JB’s routine. Kleo also took great care of our house. We would 100% leave JB with Kleo again, and would highly recommend her for pet and house sitting!

Simply can’t recommend Emma enough! She was absolutely incredible with my nervous pup, who warmed up to her really quickly. We met for a few play dates prior to the house sitting, and it was clear Emma knew how to be around and support anxious dogs. I could tell my dog felt safe and relaxed with her ❤️ She also sent me regular photos of him while I was away and kept me updated on how the little chap was doing. She was incredibly respectful of our home, as well! So grateful we found her!

Our girls absolutely loved her, and she did an amazing job at making them comfortable. The daily updates and photos of them were so nice. We will most certainly be booking with Lynn again if she has future availability. Cannot recommend enough!

Melisse did a terrific job of sitting our darling dog for a week while we were overseas visiting family. We love our girl (GSD/Husky), but she is definitely a handful, as she can be a bit reactive towards other dogs on walks and also has complex medical needs (epilepsy) that require her to take multiple medications twice per day. Given all that, we always get nervous when leaving our dog with a new sitter, as we need someone quite responsible to look after her. Melisse did awesome during the sitting -- she is clearly super comfortable around dogs (even big ones!), followed our instructions perfectly, and it was clear she really cared for Bijou and enjoyed spending time with her while we were away. She was good about being in touch daily and sending cute pics, as well as asking questions when things came up. We would highly recommend Melisse as a responsible sitter that can definitely handle animals with complex needs.
