“This is the second time Katherine and her family have looked after Rafi our Border Terrier. Rafi needed medication for his possible ear infection and Katherine communicated with us regularly on his wellbeing. Katherine provided updates and sent some lovely photos of Rafi. He always seemed content and happy in their home.”
“Incredible. Highly recommend Ellie. My two goldens loved staying with her, her family and of course Milo. Ellie updated us regularly with lots of photos which was so lovely to see how happy the dogs were. Variety of dog walks, couldn’t have asked for more. Will definitely choose Ellie again!”
“Sharon was fantastic with my little Shih Tzu, Mushu. He had a great time staying with her, her husband Dave and their dog Bertie. I received updates and photos at least once a day and was always happy that he was being well looked after and that all was going well.”
“Minnie absolutely loved her stay with Amanda. Beautiful garden for dogs and Amanda is very kind and loving towards dogs. Would fully recommend her and will definitely be using her again. Thank you xx”
About: I've been around dogs since I was 8 years old and have always loved being part of their lives. Growing up with family dogs gave me plenty of hands-on experience, and over the years I've regularly looked after dogs for friends and family. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making sure every dog feels happy, safe, and well cared for. I work during the week, so I'm available for bookings at weekends and during school holidays. Throughout the summer holidays I have plenty of free time, allowing me to give your dog lots of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. I'll always make sure your pet gets the care, exercise, and love they need while you're away. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a private, secure garden and plenty of space inside my home for dogs to relax and feel at ease. I also have a friendly cat who is very used to the family dogs visiting, so they're comfortable around each other. I'll follow your dog's usual routine, including feeding, walks, medication (if needed), and any special instructions, so they feel happy, safe, and right at home.
“What a lovely young lady. My dog Monty was treated as another family member. She is kind, gentle and fun to be around. Monty received lots of exercise so thank you! Definitely use her again. Karien”

“I found Jenny quite last minute but I am so glad I did ! Luna came to meet her a few days before being with her for a full day and she settled immediately. Jenny has a great home, lots of space with a lovely closed garden plus she’s right near the seafront and lots of wonderful places for walks. Luna settled there immediately, she loved her day with Jenny and her family as well as another two dogs she was sitting, they got on wonderfully and she kept me updated throughout the day with lots of pictures ! honestly it has been such a relief to find someone like Jenny to be able to look after Luna, I will definitely be using her again x”

“Scott was great. Raffy is a young boy with lots of energy and Scott managed him brilliantly. Raffy seemed to have loved spending time with Scott and his family. I got an update on the day I dropped him off to say he had settled in and was all good and amazing when I then needed ti pick him up slightly earlier. Thank you so much Scott and family.”

About: I have had dogs of all kinds all my life. I adore dogs. I had a very nervous Golden Retriever from 8 weeks old until he passed away. I saw him as part of the family. I looked after a Welsh Border Collie for 18 months because the owner couldn’t have dogs where she moved to. I also looked after two 10-year-old Labrador/Alsatian crosses. One of them had behavioural issues, but I was able to care for her confidently. I used to dog sit for them every few weeks and stay for several days at a time. I am reliable, sensible and flexible. I also have a car, so I can come at short notice and provide emergency transport to the vet if ever needed. I am available most days (except Tuesdays) and have my own car, so I’m able to travel where needed. I am reliable, caring and able to provide walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays and boarding.

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.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life—from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing end-of-life care. I’ve raised and cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including my own Cane Corso, who I’ve trained and loved for the past two years. My experience includes working with large breeds, reactive dogs, high-energy pups, and small dogs alike. I understand that every dog is different and take the time to meet their individual needs with patience, confidence, and care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a self-employed caregiver, I have the flexibility to give animals the consistent attention and care they need. I currently look after one dog and a young boy with a disability, both just 10 minutes from my home. This allows me to stay local, maintain a steady routine, and respond quickly to any pet care needs. My schedule is built around providing reliable, loving care—whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or just being a calming presence. My garden is fenced to let your dog have a run around! I have 3 cats but they won’t pay any attention. All pets will be in my room over night either locked up or having cuddles!
“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.”

About: I've always had my own cats growing up and they lived until the amazing age of 19 and 20! I've looked after my friends and families cats and absolutely love animals in general, both cats and dogs.

About: I have two of my own dogs who are 3 and 12 so I have experience taking care of puppies and senior dogs. I often walk my dogs as well as occasionally walk friends or family when they are away.

I have a weekly timetable but I can fit dog walks or check-ins around that in the daytime as well as be available to house-sit in the afternoons/evenings. I am a calm person and seem to get a long with every animal I meet. I will take any necessary precautions to keep your pet safe and comfortable.

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 currently a final year student at Southampton university studying philosophy. This means I have a lot of spare time, and I what’s better than spending that time taking care of 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.

“Heather was meticulous in looking after our Cavapoo "Minnie". She's quite a needy dog (I think they're bred that way) and Heather asked us to drop her off briefly a couple of weeks before the booking to check if she would be comfortable in her home. She also asked for dietary requirements and our vet's contact details just in case something happened. Heather messaged us when she had Minnie and sent pictures too. Our only concern was whether Minnie liked Heather's company so much she wouldn't want to come home! Thanks for taking care of our dog Heather - never mind five star, you score ten out of ten with us!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since before I could walk, growing up in a family filled with furry friends. I trained my own cocker spaniel from puppyhood, mastering everything from basic commands to good behaviour. Over the years, family and friends have trusted me to care for their pets, giving me hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments. My deep love for animals, combined with my practical experience, ensures your pet will be in great hands. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine since I work from home, allowing me to give your pets constant attention and care. My own cocker spaniel requires at least an hour of exercise daily, so we embark on plenty of walks and outdoor adventures. Your pets will join us on these outings, ensuring they get the exercise and stimulation they need while enjoying a loving, active environment. In my home, your pets will enjoy a safe and welcoming environment. I have a walled back garden where they can roam freely, and I keep the back doors open so they always have access to the garden and the downstairs area. My own dog is crate trained, so I'm comfortable accommodating both crate-trained and non-crate-trained dogs. Your pets will be treated like family, with plenty of space to explore, relax, and feel secure.

“Lily and Frida made themselves at home judging by the photos Jake sent! They had a lovely walk and seemed very happy when I collected them. Jake and his partner are attentive doggie carers and I have no hesitation in leaving the girls in their care.”
“Tina clearly loves and cares for the dogs in her care. As an older dog of 11 years, who had only been looked after by family we were a bit apprehensive leaving ours but we needn’t have worried. Tina kept us up to date with pictures and our dog clearly enjoyed himself. We will definitely use many times more.”
“Rosie was well looked after by Scott and his family. We were able to enjoy our day knowing she was in safe hands. We can certainly recommend Scott if you need a dog sitter for the day or boarding for a longer period.”

About: I’m a friendly, reliable and DBS checked dog walker with hands-on experience from owning dogs over the years, as well as volunteering with the RSPCA in dog care. I’m comfortable with a range of breeds, sizes and temperaments, including rescue and nervous dogs, and I always take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs. Whether your dog needs a relaxed stroll or a more energetic walk, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy and well cared for. I know how important trust is when it comes to your pet, so I’ll always provide a calm, caring approach, keep you updated, and treat your dog as if they were my own. 🐾 I currently work from home on Mondays and Tuesdays, which gives me flexibility for dog walks during the day. I’m available for walks during my lunch break (between 11:30am–2pm) and after work from 5pm onwards. Wednesdays are less flexible, but I may still have limited availability depending on the week. I’m generally available most weekends at any time, so I can be more flexible to suit your dog’s routine. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes and personalities through both personal ownership and my volunteering with the RSPCA. This has given me confidence working with a range of temperaments, including dogs who may be nervous, shy or simply need a little extra patience to feel comfortable. For added peace of mind, I am DBS checked and have completed Canine First Aid Level 2 (VTQ) training, covering CPR, choking, bleeding control, seizures and other common canine emergencies. Your dog’s safety, wellbeing and happiness will always be my top priority. Every dog is different, so I believe walks should be tailored to their individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk, a slower-paced stroll or plenty of time to sniff and explore, I aim to provide a positive experience that leaves them happy, enriched and looking forward to their next adventure.
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life, am a qualified dog psychologist and a big belly rub enthusiast. I recently lost my elderly sassy dachshund Ruby who lived to 14. It’s been too quiet without her so I would love to look after your pooch while you’re away. I regularly sit for dogs but would love the opportunity to meet more. The pet parents I work with would be happy to share feedback should you need the extra reassurance. I know it can be nerve wracking finding someone who will take care of your pup as well as you do. I absolutely adore dogs and will treat your pup like my own. I am happy to care for all ages and have trained puppies. I have a real soft spot for senior dogs so am very happy to look after them and provide any extra care they need. I also recently completed a pet first aid course. I’ve also worked in a rescue centre so have plenty of experience with any type of behaviour. My work is flexible and I can work from home whenever I need. I’ll be available to take your pup on regular walks and snuggle with them in the evening. I’ll give them the structure they need to feel comfortable with me. I’m happy to adapt to any routine your dog is used to. I’ve stayed in my clients homes when they have been away, my priority is care for the pup while taking care of your home. I’m very clean and will make sure the place is ready for your return. Changing the bed and cleaning the bathroom, etc. Will take care of plants, wait for deliveries, pretty much anything you need to make sure things are ticking along while you’re away.

About: Hi, I’m Joel. I’m a Teaching Assistant in a Special Educational Needs (SEN) setting, regularly involved in outdoor activities and Forest School sessions. This means I’m at my happiest outdoors, rain or shine, and I’m used to managing a variety of unique needs with patience and a calm, positive approach. Working in an SEN environment has taught me how to read body language and learn to provide care for each individual’s needs - skills that translate perfectly to dealing with our furry friends! Whether your dog is a zoomy explorer who loves adventure or a more nervous personality who needs a gentle, patient companion, I can adapt my walking style to suit them. Why choose me? * DBS-Checked: I hold a current Enhanced DBS through my school role. * Genuine Love For The Outdoors: Spending most of my work and free time outside, all year long. * SEN Expertise: I’m highly patient and experienced with 'big' personalities and complex needs. * Reliable & Responsible: I’m used to following strict safety protocols and routines. * Experience with reactive/nervous dogs: Growing up at home with rescue dogs with challenging behaviours, learning to nurture and understand dogs both confident and nervous. Reach out with any queries you might have and I’ll respond as soon as I am able. Initial meet and greets with dogs are completely free as I’ll be eager to get to know the dogs before we set off on our first walk together! I work school hours during the week, which means I am free from 3:30pm weekdays. On weekends I can be available and flexible with hours, also being able to offer full time availability during school holidays. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged friends and share some fun fuelled walks! I can commit my full focus and attention towards your four legged loved ones, as I get as much joy being around them as they hopefully will around me! I have a very calm demeanour which I like to think helps the people and dogs around me feel the same way too.
“We love Violet!! As soon Violet met our dog Millie, you could tell she has a special affinity with animals. Millie had some lovely walks with Violet and I received an update every day with photos and videos which was so lovely. We’ll be booking Violet again very soon!”
About: I have lived most of my life with one or more dogs at home and my family currently has four of them. For me, home is where the dog is. During university, my flatmate and I fostered 9 different dogs spread out over 2 years. The dogs were awaiting their flights to their forever homes, travelling from Cyprus to the UK. The periods of fostering ranged from 2 weeks to 3 months. This has taught me to take care of anxious dogs who had never had homes before or had been poorly treated by their owners. I also regularly dog sit my friend's 2 year old female labrador, as well as my family dogs. Unfortunately the place I rent doesn’t allow pets and so am restricted to drop in visits, house sitting and doggy walks. As I am a junior doctor, my availability will be very dependent on my rota schedule, however I am happy to discuss and work around it whenever possible. Many walks throughout the day, some exercise in the park and even some training if asked. Thanks to my childhood and the fostering experience I have carried out during university, I am able to easily adapt to different characters and breeds easily as well as adapting to your dog's specific needs.
About: Always had a dog in the family growing up and lots of other family members have dogs too. Trusted to take family and friends dogs out for walks and look after in the house! Really enjoy the company of dogs and outdoor walks! I work full time as a teacher so would be good for evening or weekend walks including overnight care at the weekend/Friday night. I am also available during half terms and holidays. I have a fenced garden and lots of areas around suitable for walking including paved areas and wooded environments. Garden has lots of grass and space to move around in.
About: I have taken care of different dogs for a few years now. My family has a working cocker spaniel, and I have previously walked my grandmothers newfoundland. I'm currently a student so have flexible hours to work. I am available at different times each day and can work to fit in with your schedules. I currently live in a rented house that does not allow pets so would only be available for pet sitting/walking in the pet owners house.
“Ellie was great with Apple and gave me lots of updates after the walks, which was amazing and made me feel reassured. She sent lots of pictures and Apple was really happy with her. Thank you”
About: Hi im izzie. You’ll usually find me on the slopes instructing young kids how to snowboard, but while im waiting for the snow to come in I like to work as a pet sitter and dog walker. My family have always had dogs and other pets so im very confident in looking after pets and look forward to meeting your pets and giving them a good experience on their walks or while you’re on holiday! Having always lived with dogs im very comfortable around all sorts of breeds as well as aiding in the training of my dogs. I’m currently unemployed as my work as a snowboard instructor has time off during the split in the seasons. I’ve just returned from a season in japan and will be heading off to australia in june. But while im waiting for the snow to come in my schedule is fully flexible and I can work around booking that I get due to not having a set work schedule to live by. What you need I can give. I think it’s important when looking after your pet that while you’re gone, as little changes for them as possible. So sticking to their routine so they feel as comfortable as possible and can build trust with me while you aren’t there. My goal for them is to feel as safe as possible while having fun at the same time.
About: Since my early years, the family house has always been filled with small animals - cats, hamsters, rabbits and guinea pigs. From this I’ve built a very good understanding of how to care for small animals like how to administer medication, feed, clean and groom them. Over my teenage years, whilst completing my gold Duke of Edinburgh, I volunteered for a year at an animal sanctuary where we cared and housed the most random of animals from hedgehogs to seagulls. But the most common animal we had were cats and kittens. Often we had around 20 cats at one time so I had to make sure to divide my time well that each animal had a good amount of human contact, cuddles, play time and grooming. It was important to establish bonds with the cats and kittens coming in as many were rescues so some didn’t have the best experience with human interaction. It was also important to build this connection so that they were able to go to homes in the future. As I have my own pet, Nova, I am very confident with scheduling for food, cleaning, vet visits etc. I work early in the morning therefore am up for early feeding time and then free for the whole day. Before accepting any job, It is my priority to first establish a basic relationship with the owner and pet in a visit before the intended date. This allows me to meet the pet and learn their schedule/ behaviour and where everything needed is and make sure you are happy and comfortable with me too!
About: I have two of my own dogs who are 3 and 12 so I have experience taking care of puppies and senior dogs. I often walk my dogs as well as occasionally walk friends or family when they are away. I have experience taking care of cats as my neighbours all have cats and I often help out with them. I’m currently a student at the University of Bristol and I am available in the term time. I have a weekly timetable but I can fit dog walks or check-ins around that in the daytime as well as be available to house-sit in the afternoons/evenings. I am a calm person and seem to get a long with every animal I meet. I will take any necessary precautions to keep your pet safe and comfortable.

“I found Jenny quite last minute but I am so glad I did ! Luna came to meet her a few days before being with her for a full day and she settled immediately. Jenny has a great home, lots of space with a lovely closed garden plus she’s right near the seafront and lots of wonderful places for walks. Luna settled there immediately, she loved her day with Jenny and her family as well as another two dogs she was sitting, they got on wonderfully and she kept me updated throughout the day with lots of pictures ! honestly it has been such a relief to find someone like Jenny to be able to look after Luna, I will definitely be using her again x”

About: I have had dogs of all kinds all my life. I adore dogs. I had a very nervous Golden Retriever from 8 weeks old until he passed away. I saw him as part of the family. I looked after a Welsh Border Collie for 18 months because the owner couldn’t have dogs where she moved to. I also looked after two 10-year-old Labrador/Alsatian crosses. One of them had behavioural issues, but I was able to care for her confidently. I used to dog sit for them every few weeks and stay for several days at a time. I am reliable, sensible and flexible. I also have a car, so I can come at short notice and provide emergency transport to the vet if ever needed. I am available most days (except Tuesdays) and have my own car, so I’m able to travel where needed. I am reliable, caring and able to provide walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays and boarding. My priority is making sure your dog feels safe, happy and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind, so I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos throughout your dog’s stay. I’ll always do my best to follow their usual routine and give them plenty of love, attention and playtime, so they feel as comfortable as possible. I live in a large one-bedroom first-floor flat and have my landlord’s permission to have pets. I am also happy to stay in your home if that’s what your dog is most comfortable with. I am respectful, trustworthy and fully focused on caring for your furry family member as if they were my own. I recently lost my partner hence why I’d like to do this. I am available most days (except Tues) and I have a car so I’m able to travel/come at short notice. I am currently not working due to a health condition but that doesn’t affect me caring for dogs.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life—from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing end-of-life care. I’ve raised and cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including my own Cane Corso, who I’ve trained and loved for the past two years. My experience includes working with large breeds, reactive dogs, high-energy pups, and small dogs alike. I understand that every dog is different and take the time to meet their individual needs with patience, confidence, and care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a self-employed caregiver, I have the flexibility to give animals the consistent attention and care they need. I currently look after one dog and a young boy with a disability, both just 10 minutes from my home. This allows me to stay local, maintain a steady routine, and respond quickly to any pet care needs. My schedule is built around providing reliable, loving care—whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or just being a calming presence. My garden is fenced to let your dog have a run around! I have 3 cats but they won’t pay any attention. All pets will be in my room over night either locked up or having cuddles!
