“Benji had another great stay at Ellie’s at the weekend with Ellie and her family. Even with him having a few toilet accidents, Ellie took great care of him and was very understanding. Ellie kept me updated with lots of photos and it looked like Benji was having the best time at both the beach and in the woods with them all. Thank you for always taking great care of Benji for us!”
“Heather and Mat looked after our cocker spaniel brilliantly. He came home happy and obviously well cared for. Heather updated us daily with lovely photos. We will definitely be using them again.”
About: I’ve always had a dog in the family and enjoy spending my time with dogs, whether that be walks or general care. Always up for a good adventure. I currently work Monday to Friday so would be more available for weekend work than in the week, but can make some adjustments for potential evening walks etc. I have a fenced garden so plenty of space for a dog to enjoy even after a good walk. I also have the space to crate a dog too.
“Amanda was absolutely fantastic with my dog. She provided lovely early and late walks, as well as plenty of garden space for him to enjoy. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, warm and welcoming, and I immediately felt that my dog was in safe and caring hands. It was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes their wellbeing seriously. I would highly recommend Amanda and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
“Having found Sarah on Dog buddy we had a trial night sleepover and this went very well. It’s always daunting leaving your fur baby with strangers but Sarah was amazing and very welcoming and i was kept updated with lovely picture posts on the whole stay. All of our dogs needs were taken care of and I have one happy hound returning home, he had a wonderful stay. Thanks to Sarah x”
“Thank you Harriet! We're go grateful you were available on short notice. You communicated well with us and we came home to a loving and happy pup! We appreciate you taking care of our fur baby :-)”

About: Wagworth's Dog Care: I am dog mad, having loved them since I was little. I specialise in looking after puppies and elderly dogs who often need a bit more care and attention, and treating them like one of my family. I have owned several dogs myself and I currently have 2 very friendly dogs - a 4 year old Border Terrier / Poodle mix, Bertie, and a 1 year old Jack Russel Terrier, Bailey. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and look forward to meeting yours! I work from home so can accommodate walks and dog sitting flexibly. I spend most of my weekends with my dogs out on long walks along the coast or on the Downs. I have a fenced garden and my own dogs to keep yours company. I have a car and it is a short distance from my house to great walks along the beach or in fields.
“I couldn’t have found such a caring reliable person to look after my 15 week old Mabel. I trusted her straight away as she is a genuine dog lover. Whilst I was away Siân sent regular daily updates with photos. Mabel settled in really well and I have hopefully found a new BFF for Mabel for life! It made me feel so much better leaving her knowing she was so well looked after and loved. A great big thank you xx”
About: Not only have I taken care of my own pets since I was a child, for over the past year I have dog sat for many friends and family. I am a recent philosophy graduate with lots of time to care for my own pets. This means I have a lot of spare time, and I what’s better than spending that time taking care of others’ animals? To look after dogs, I had a gated garden and a gate at the bottom of the stairs. My rabbits had a large enclosure, the same with my chickens. Further, my cats are both outdoor.
About: I’ve taken care of family & friends dogs/cat for many years now and have grown up with them all my life! I’m lucky enough to also help out and work at dog events such as Goodwoof & Dogstival. This included walking, feeding and assisting all the owners and dogs needs throughout the whole day. I currently have a rescue dog myself from Crete and I have dedicated my time and effort helping with her anxiety towards other dogs, walks and loud noises. As well as training her some new tips and tricks, so I understand the importance of ensuring a dog feels comfortable especially in their own home. I work Monday - Friday but work one day at home (of my choice) so I am available at 5pm onwards and I am available to stay overs or walks. I am free all weekend nights and days for stay overs or walks. I would ensure that I understand all the animals needs fro maybe owner before taking care of them. Knowing things that makes them less stressed, at home and some of their favourite walk areas

Your dog's safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priority.
“Lily & Frida spent 3 nights on holiday with Jake. It was during the very hot weather so he had his hands full keeping them as cool as possible. I know that he did everything that I would have done to ensure they were as comfortable as possible. They were both happy and so were we. I have no hesitation in recommending Jake.”
“Amelia took amazing care of my 7 month old puppy, who has separation anxiety. She was attentive and made sure he felt safe and comfortable in her home. I was sent regular updates throughout his stay. I couldn’t have asked for better care, and I’d highly recommend Amelia!”
“Tina was very good with Milo. He can be nervous, but he was totally at home with her, with lots of petting, toys and treats. He clearly remembered it from his Meet & Greet visit when we returned for his overnight stay and was very excited to be there again and to greet Tina. I had complete confidence in Tina being well setup and clearly capable for looking after a less confident dog. Thank you Tina, we will be back.”
“Gemma is a lovely lady, with lovely fam and lovely house. My dog is a little highly strung and getting a bit old and anxious ( Jack Russell / Terrier ) but she settled there immediately, which is the best sign. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for day care and/or overnight stays.”

About: I’ve been a cat owner for 8 years, caring for my two cats, Harold and Ronald, and have experience looking after cats with very different personalities and needs. I also have hands-on experience caring for a seriously unwell cat following a traumatic accident. During his recovery, I managed a demanding care routine that included 8 hand-fed medications every day, alongside feeding, monitoring, comforting and giving him plenty of one-to-one attention. This taught me to be patient, observant and confident when a cat needs extra care or medication.
“Harriet was fantastic. She was punctual, friendly and professional. When we arrived home Paolo was in great form. He had been well watered, looked after and fed. We would highly recommend using her and will definitely be asking her to look after Paolo again.”

About: Hello fellow 'crazy about cats' folk! My name is Caroline and I am a mature lady with a real passion for cats. I also love dogs; in fact I kept large dogs (German Shepherds) for over thirty years although now I only have cats. I'm very happy to visit and feed your hounds though. Previously I have worked in the criminal justice system for years and have always had to be DBS checked - you can rely on me for reliability, discretion and honesty. I have had cats around me all my life. As a child, we had Siamese cats, but latterly | have always had rescue mogs. My current boy is the most amazing of all time and I am besotted! I am flexible, responsible and totally reliable and can adapt my services to suit the personality of your cat or dog. I have had cats only for the past 21 years, so l have pretty good catty credentials. I am happy to refill bowls, unfill litter trays (!) and offer cuddles and laps (when invited to do so) by your puss. For your dogs, 1 am happy to let them out, feed them and give them some scratches and tummy rubs (if they want me to.) I am now offering overnight house sitting for cats and small, well behaved dogs which I am also happy to walk. I can offer unparalleled love and attention coupled with genuine respect for your home and security. Happy to take on last minute requirements if I can. Let me know if you have any questions!
“Emma was just perfect. She was very kind, conscientious and diligent. I instinctly felt assured I could trust her to look after Hercule and respect my home. Hercule has never been left for more than an overnight before and I was so anxious as to how he would fare. But I felt completely reassured by Emma's little visit reports and she was really very patient with my nervous messaging. It was perfectly evident she is an animal lover and takes great pride in caring for them. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip. Much more importantly, I came home to a happy, relaxed little cat; despite it being a heatwave whilst I was away and the huge disruption to his routine. It was also quite apparent that he took a liking to Emma very quickly. Communication was clear, concise and very friendly. I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience and will certainly book her services the next time I go away.”

“Evangelical was excellent. 2 very happy cats and 2 very happy humans, looked after the fluffy bags of mischief over Christmas for us and we are forever grateful for her help. Will definitely use her again”
“Jess always does an excellent job! 5th time of Jess taking care of our cats. Belle and Boo (our new to us cats) have been with us for just 3 months, so was important to have someone we trust to look after them. They are shy with new people and Jess won them around in no time.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for them is second nature to me. Right now, I have my dog Alfie, a complete bundle of energy who needs tons of walks, fetch, and playtime to tire him out. I also recently lost my older dog, so I deeply understand the extra patience, slow walks, and gentle care that senior dogs need. From high energy dogs to quiet seniors, I’ll treat your dog just like my own :) Since I work on a small remote project from home, my schedule is completely flexible. I don't have fixed office hours, which means I have all the time in the world to give your dogs the care, attention, and company they need, especially if you're away on holiday and want them to feel comfortable at home! I’m already out walking my energetic dog Alfie for 2 to 3 hours every day (split into a couple of walks, usually early morning and late evening during hot weather, with plenty of indoor playtime in between). I also have my own car, so traveling to nearby areas or taking your dog to nice walking spots is no problem at all. The house I live in is very big, we usually leave a door open but for first visitors I would go out into garden with their lead on to make sure they know how to get back to the house. I would be happy to let them off the lead and follow them around so they don’t get lost. In the owners home I would always take them out on a lead and make sure they feel safe and the environment is safe before letting them off.

“Heather was very professional & has a caring approach. She enabled us to attend a family funeral 275 miles away from home looking after our dog Daisy who has separation anxiety. Although clearly happy to see us on collection after spending the day with Heather you could tell Daisy had had a good day & wasn’t stressed. Thanks Heather:”

About: We have been dog boarding in our home since July 2022. We achieved our official license in May 2023 to provide doggy daycare and boarding for up to three dogs at a time. I attended an in person dog first aid course in May 2023, for which I received a certificate which is valid for 3 years. I then achieved a level 3 Ofqual Canine Care, behaviour and welfare certificate through Canine principles. Since then I have achieved certificates in Canine enrichment, dog basic dog grooming and basic dog training. We now have our own pets-a cat and a dog and would like to start boarding again after a break of one and a half years to focus on other things. I am at work Mondays to Fridays from 11 until 2pm so dogs need to be able to be left during this time I am at home the majority of the time, and as a lover of animals and nature I like to spend as much time outside as I can, which is also beneficial for the children and visiting dogs. We are lucky to live in a beautiful semi rural village with a field just round the corner from our house and plentiful dog walking routes such as Tangmere airfield. We also have a medium sized secure garden. We provide boarding services in our home, which was previously inspected by a dog boarding company and deemed ideal, due to the high fences in the back garden. We regularly check the fences for gaps. We have stair gates so are able to separate the dogs from the children if they need some quiet time. We prefer to meet and greet in advance so that both parties can check for suitability.
“Remarkably caring, flexible and communicative. Maxie is in love with him! Andrew arrvies punctually, takes Max out on varied walks, cheerfully puts up with his pulling, and reports faithfully in writing on all health and behaviour details. I highly recommend him.”
“We were very happy that Joel was looking after our two dogs (one blind and one anxious) and felt secure and confident about his dog-sitting during our festival night in Chichester. And our dogs got along so well with him. He had this aura of calm, which was very helpful for our dogs being left with someone they had never met before.”

I also have two friendly, well-socialised dogs who love the company of other dogs and will help your furry friend feel at home. I live in a quiet urbanisation with plenty of lovely walking routes nearby, away from busy main roads, making it a safe and enjoyable environment for daily walks and exercise. Your dog's safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priority.
About: With several years of experience caring for puppies, kittens, horses, and reptiles, I offer expert, compassionate care tailored to each animal’s unique needs and personality. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my weekly routine as a student midwife. I get yearly timetables and I dedicate time each week for walks, feeding, and check-ins, ensuring consistent, dependable care. In my home, pets become part of the family—lots of love, walks, and cozy spots to rest. Secured garden and run of our home. In your home, I provide gentle, reliable care that keeps their routine steady and stress-free.
About: I’ve taken care of family & friends dogs/cat for many years now and have grown up with them all my life! I’m lucky enough to also help out and work at dog events such as Goodwoof & Dogstival. This included walking, feeding and assisting all the owners and dogs needs throughout the whole day. I currently have a rescue dog myself from Crete and I have dedicated my time and effort helping with her anxiety towards other dogs, walks and loud noises. As well as training her some new tips and tricks, so I understand the importance of ensuring a dog feels comfortable especially in their own home. I work Monday - Friday but work one day at home (of my choice) so I am available at 5pm onwards and I am available to stay overs or walks. I am free all weekend nights and days for stay overs or walks. I would ensure that I understand all the animals needs fro maybe owner before taking care of them. Knowing things that makes them less stressed, at home and some of their favourite walk areas

“Benji had another great stay at Ellie’s at the weekend with Ellie and her family. Even with him having a few toilet accidents, Ellie took great care of him and was very understanding. Ellie kept me updated with lots of photos and it looked like Benji was having the best time at both the beach and in the woods with them all. Thank you for always taking great care of Benji for us!”
“Heather and Mat looked after our cocker spaniel brilliantly. He came home happy and obviously well cared for. Heather updated us daily with lovely photos. We will definitely be using them again.”
“Amanda was absolutely fantastic with my dog. She provided lovely early and late walks, as well as plenty of garden space for him to enjoy. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, warm and welcoming, and I immediately felt that my dog was in safe and caring hands. It was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes their wellbeing seriously. I would highly recommend Amanda and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
“Having found Sarah on Dog buddy we had a trial night sleepover and this went very well. It’s always daunting leaving your fur baby with strangers but Sarah was amazing and very welcoming and i was kept updated with lovely picture posts on the whole stay. All of our dogs needs were taken care of and I have one happy hound returning home, he had a wonderful stay. Thanks to Sarah x”

“Charlotte was kind and thoughtful and understanding over an overly anxious dog mum who’s never left her dog. Rosie was loved and well looked after and I will be booking Charlotte again”
“I couldn’t have found such a caring reliable person to look after my 15 week old Mabel. I trusted her straight away as she is a genuine dog lover. Whilst I was away Siân sent regular daily updates with photos. Mabel settled in really well and I have hopefully found a new BFF for Mabel for life! It made me feel so much better leaving her knowing she was so well looked after and loved. A great big thank you xx”
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old, looking after my own pets as well as those of friends and family. I have experience with dog walking, feeding, overnight pet sitting, and providing loving, reliable care for dogs of all ages and sizes. I am comfortable caring for a wide range of breeds, from small dogs such as French Bulldogs to large breeds like Rottweilers. I understand that every dog has its own personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while in my care. Whether your dog needs a walk, company during the day, or overnight care, you can count on me to treat them as if they were my own. I work four days a week, and on the days I work, I'm home by 5:00 pm, leaving my evenings free for dog walks, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. On my days off, I have much more flexibility and can provide daytime care as well. I'm reliable, organised, and happy to work around your pet's routine whenever possible. Your dog will have access to a secure, fenced garden to play and relax in. I also have two friendly, well-socialised dogs who love the company of other dogs and will help your furry friend feel at home. I live in a quiet urbanisation with plenty of lovely walking routes nearby, away from busy main roads, making it a safe and enjoyable environment for daily walks and exercise.

“Amelia took amazing care of my 7 month old puppy, who has separation anxiety. She was attentive and made sure he felt safe and comfortable in her home. I was sent regular updates throughout his stay. I couldn’t have asked for better care, and I’d highly recommend Amelia!”
“Tina was very good with Milo. He can be nervous, but he was totally at home with her, with lots of petting, toys and treats. He clearly remembered it from his Meet & Greet visit when we returned for his overnight stay and was very excited to be there again and to greet Tina. I had complete confidence in Tina being well setup and clearly capable for looking after a less confident dog. Thank you Tina, we will be back.”
