Thank you. Maria is a super understanding host who pays attention to detail to ensure she fully understands dogs routines and needs. Very responsive to messages.”

“Pitcha took great care of Frisco and kept us well updated throughout his stay. It was great to see he had an amazing time with Bacon, and has come home a very happy and tired pupper 😀”
“Craig and his family are lovely and took such good care of Herbert. We received great communication with photos and videos showing him having a good time. He was taken on long walks and seems to have had a wonderful time playing with Piper. Our only concern was that Herbert wouldn’t want to come home!”
“Mayzie was absolutely amazing with Douglas! She was super responsive and friendly with communication beforehand and sent regular updates while Douglas was with her and he came home a very happy boy. Thank you!”
“Stanley loved his stay with Karolina. He's been there a few times. When we arrived he jumped out the car and took himself to her front door (always a good sign) she kept us updated on how he was doing. Then he was getting strokes when we picked him up. Can't recommend enough!”
“Claudia was very friendly and kind.. She managed to take Missy at short notice. She sent regular updates and photos throughout Missy's stay. Missy was calm and relaxed when I picked her up. Will definitely book again. Highly recommend.”
“Fatima and family were brilliant with Clover, who is not an easy dog. She sent us loads of lovely and reassuring updates, videos and photos, which helped us relax and enjoy our holiday as we were quite anxious. I don't think Clover wanted to come home she had such a lovely time with her new pack! Fatima was also very happy to meet up in the run up to the holiday and now afterwards, too, which is lovely. We now have a trusted relationship that we'll definitely use again - thank you!!!”
About: I've grown up with dogs all my life! Well trained and calm dog idealls please with not too much walking required. Needs to get on with children please as I occasionally have my grandchildren round. I'm retired and generally free but cannot do long walks.

“We had such a great experience with Natalie and her husband looking after our two timid rescue cats for a long weekend. They were both kind, caring and patient with them, and we felt at ease knowing they were being well looked after while we were away. They kept us regularly updated, which was really reassuring, and even managed to spot both cats a couple of times, which is genuinely a huge win with our two little hiding experts! 😂 We came home to two happy, settled cats, and it was clear they had been in very safe and caring hands. We’d absolutely recommend them and would happily have them look after our Jiggly & Puff again! ❤️”
“Absolutely amazing! What a lovely lady! We used to leave our cats in a cathotel and when we would return they wouldn't be very happy, it would take a few time to come around to us! With Sharon popping in, its a huge difference. They are so just so happy when we come home. They are so well looked after and she sends so many updates. She's the best!”
“Emily was excellent in every way. Just returned from holiday - first time leaving Alfie with Emily, I rec’d photos and videos every day and she kept to Alfie’s routine which was so important. Alfie is happy to see us but I’m sure he misses Emily popping in. A HUGE thank you from us and if course Alfie xx”
“Aimee took such wonderful care of my cat Pepper while I was away. Aime was reliable, caring and clearly loves animals. Pepper was very well looked after and it gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Pepper was happy and relaxed when I got home. I would highly recommend Aime and would happily ask her to look after Pepper again.”
“My cats absolutely loved her! One of them is usually very timid and takes a long time to warm up to new people, but he was surprisingly comfortable and even playful around her. It was clear that she has a natural connection with animals and made them feel safe and at ease. We were thoroughly impressed and very satisfied with her service. She went above and beyond to ensure our pets were happy and well cared for.”
“Chloe is a wonderful sitter!! We asked her to look after our 2 cats for a week and they adored her🥰 she sent loads of great photos which put our minds at ease and she looked after them very well. Thank you so much Chloe!xx”

“Can’t recommend Joanne enough! She was looking after our house and our two cats while we were on holiday. Both cats can be a bit weird around strangers but she won their hearts over in no time 🤩 it’s like the boys had their own little spa break.

As an energetic puppy, Taleb gives Lola the love, time and attention that she needs when we are unable to due to work & I know she is happy and having the best day with him.

About: 🐾Home-from-Home Boarding - One Dog Family at a Time - Secure Garden - WFH Hi, I'm Maria, and I live with my wife Helen and our teenage sons in the beautiful village of Handcross, near Haywards Heath. I am a fully licensed with Mid Sussex District Council and also hold a DBS Certificate. For many years, our home revolved around our much-loved cockapoo, Sox. After recently saying goodbye to him, we're not quite ready for another dog of our own, but we really miss having a furry companion around the house and would love to share our home, care and affection with your dog. One thing that makes our care a little different is that we only welcome dogs from one family at a time. This means your dog won't have to compete for attention or share their space with lots of unfamiliar dogs. Instead, they'll enjoy a calm, relaxed environment with plenty of one-to-one care and affection. Having cared for Sox from puppyhood through to his senior years, including supporting him with mobility issues and medication, we're experienced in caring for dogs at every stage of life. We're both home during the day, so your dog will rarely be left alone and will enjoy plenty of companionship, attention and love throughout their stay. We know how important it is to feel confident when leaving your dog in someone else's care. That's why we'll take the time to get to know their routine, personality and individual needs, helping them settle in at their own pace. Whether your dog loves long countryside walks and adventures or prefers a cosy spot on the sofa and plenty of cuddles, we'll make sure they feel safe, happy and completely at home. Your dog will have free run of our home and be treated as one of the family, just as Sox always was. We have a secure enclosed garden and are surrounded by beautiful countryside, woodland trails and private estate grounds, offering plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment and lots of sniff-filled adventures. We'll also keep you updated with messages and photos during your dog's stay, so you can relax knowing they're happy, settled and being well looked after. We can't wait to meet you and welcome your dog into our home-from-home. 🐾 We’re used to having a dog who enjoyed at least three walks a day, and as we’re both at home, we have plenty of time and flexibility to follow your dog’s usual routine. We offer a calm, safe home from home where your dog is treated like part of the family. Lots of one to one attention without other unfamiliar dogs around 🐾 We would like to keep everything familiar for them, including walks, feeding times, rest and any little extras like medication or special care.
“Pitcha is amazing and so caring. She else t lots of videos and photos which is always so reassuring! Wilf loves visiting his friend bacon and the two seem to play together really nicely. We both fully trust Pitcha with our baby and are so happy to have her available to help her look after him. We would be a bit lost without her!”
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and have shared my home with all sorts of pets over the years, including a Cocker Spaniel, cats, hamsters and tortoises. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe, settled and loved while they're away from their owners. Whether it's sticking to a familiar routine or just plenty of cuddles, I'll always treat your dog as if they were one of my own. I have a five-year-old Cockerpoo called Daisy, who weighs around 10kg. She's wonderfully friendly and brilliant with other dogs — there's nothing she loves more than heading to the park for a walk with her doggy friends, so she'd be lovely company for any pup coming to stay.. I offer both doggy day care and overnight boarding for small to medium dogs (up to 10kg). I am happy to follow your dog's usual routine and send you regular updates, so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing they're in safe, loving hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home, which gives me a high level of flexibility and availability throughout the day. On a daily basis, I’m able to build pet care into my normal schedule without any disruption. During the working day, I’m present for regular check-ins and reassurance, short play sessions or quick walks, monitoring behaviour, health, and comfort, maintaining feeding schedules or giving medication if needed. Your dog's safety and happiness will always come first. I only look after small to medium dogs up to 10kg, which keeps playtime gentle and nicely matched, and I am very happy to follow any instructions you have around food, medication or little habits so your dog feels right at home. My home is a calm and friendly place where dogs are treated as one of the family rather than just a guest. Your dog will have plenty of cosy spots to relax in, lots of company from my friendly Cockerpoo Daisy, and regular walks to the local park for some fresh air and a good sniff about. I know it can be hard leaving your dog with someone new, so I’ll send you plenty of photos and updates while they're with me. You can head off knowing they're safe, settled and thoroughly spoiled until you're back together.
“Daria and her lovely furry companions did a great job at making Nero feel welcome whilst I was attending a local garden party. Daria was very responsive and sent photos of Nero enjoying playing with her other 2 pups. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again!”
“Amazing! Another wonderful day of doggy daycare under the caring wings of Rachel. Our Mira couldn’t wait to see her and Quin when we got to her place. They spent a great time playing and going on a hike. It is so wonderful to see our Mira have fun with Rachel and her lovely family. We were always updated thru photos and messages of what they were up to. We found the best doggy daycare Maidenbower has to offer. We will always trust Rachel for our daycare needs. Thank you so much Rachel! You are a treasure ❤️”
“Amazing, Milo enjoyed every minute with Fe and we were confident in leaving Milo for the first time in Fe's care. Thank You, you made our day away as stress free as possible.”
“Lovely day care for my boy Albus! Received updates throughout the day of the nice day he was having! Received a happy and tired boy at the end of the day! Would highly recommend to anyone”
“Carly was wonderful. Otter enjoyed his time with her and her family. Her home is perfect as she has a lot of space and a nice garden. I was so glad that she was able to help me on a very busy day for me.”
“Sophie and her partner were fabulous with our staffie cross.They understand the needs of a younger bigger dog really well and we were updated lots throughout the day. Thanks again!”
“Sophia & her family are lovely. They looked after our very energetic Cockapoo for the day he was played with, had a long walk & fed his dinner. He came home very happy & very tired, so slept well. Sophia was very accommodating with everything from the initial meeting, timings on the day & with all discussions leading up to the day care. I would happily recommend Sophia & use her again for my dogs day care. Thank you Sophia & family x”

About: As an experienced dog sitter, I provide a safe, caring, and reliable environment for every dog in my care. Having previously owned a dog myself, I understand the importance of meeting each dog’s individual needs, including exercise, companionship, routine, and plenty of attention. I genuinely love animals and take pride in ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. My son also enjoys spending time with dogs, which means your pet will receive plenty of affection and companionship in a warm, family-oriented home. I treat every dog as if they were my own and am committed to providing the highest standard of care throughout their stay. I currently only work park time and only 8-1 so have weekends free and Mondays and Thursdays! My working days are Tuesday Wednesday Fridays 8-1 I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. In my home, I provide a warm and welcoming environment where pets can enjoy plenty of playtime, and affection. I stick to their usual routines for feeding, walks, and rest so they feel secure and at ease. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to maintain consistency in the pet’s routine. I make sure they get the right balance of attention, play, and rest, while also keeping the home tidy and cared for. No matter where I’m caring for pets, I treat them like part of the family and give them the same love and attention I’d want for my own. I don’t have a garden but I have a big field at the end of my road!
“Felicitas has looked after Sidney twice now, once for the day, and once for a walk. She is very reliable and responsible, and Sidney absolutely loves her! She left the house in a very clean state when she stayed here for the day, and she provided me with regular updates on Sidney while she looked after him. She was very receptive to hear about his needs (which are a lot, being 11 years old now!), and she was understanding about his requirements. I would definitely recommend her, and will be using her again as a very reliable and safe pair of hands to look after my precious boy. His excitement at seeing her shows he enjoys Felicitas looking after him too!”
“Marc came round to do a special extra walk prior to booking him for a house sit. Marc was very good with both dogs. They are two large GSD and he was able to walk and look after them. I have now booked Marc to house sit for a weekend in October.”
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was young, but my first real hands-on pet care experience began 15 years ago with my black Labrador puppy, Buttons. I trained and cared for her throughout her life until she sadly passed away last year. We had 14 years of fun together - walks, cuddles and plenty of mischief. She now lives on in my memories as a reminder of why I love caring for pets so much. She also taught me how to care for an animal through all stages of life - through the puppy years up to having her medications as a senior dog. I also share my life with many cats. Cleo, my first, joined me three years ago and had a litter of kittens. Helping care for them and assisting in their upbringing, including keeping one kitten we named Tavvy, was an unforgettable experience. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and now I’m thrilled to use my experience to help others — with the added bonus of even more cuddles along the way! I have 3 years’ professional experience in the pet care industry. I began by completing an animal care course, and the 3 years ago I joined Rover. Since then, I’ve loved every moment of caring for wonderful pets, no matter how challenging. My experience includes working with large dog breeds, animals with disabilities or medical conditions, and multiple-pet households — once caring for 5 cats and 5 dogs at the same time! I look forward to meeting even more incredible animals and their owners, and hope I can help care for your furry family members too. I currently work in accounts alongside my pet sitting work. My role is flexible and local, which means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. When I’m with them, they’re always my number one priority — their comfort, happiness, and well-being come first every single time! You can trust that your pets will be treated with the same love and care I give my own. My own pets are loved, well cared for, and kept to a routine — something I truly believe helps them feel safe and happy. I know every pet is unique, and no one knows them better than their owner! I’m always happy to follow your routines, schedules, and preferences to make sure your pets get the same care they’re used to at home. No detail is ever too small — the more I know, the better I can tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and personality. My goal is to make you feel completely comfortable and confident that your furry (or scaly!) friends are in safe, loving hands

I have pet first aid and animal care qualifications, so you know your pets are in safe hands I currently run my own dog walking business called Barktastic Beasts dog walking and would love to help more owners with their pets from big to small I love them all. I only offer hour long walks I love to get to know the pet and their usual routines so I can follow their usual day to day activities with extra attention and playtime I only offer hour long walks
“Bronn walked out Frenchie for a few days while we were away on holiday. We arranged to meet a few days before our trip, along with our dog (Princess - our rescue), so we could put a face to the name and check Princess liked her! Princess was collected each day on time for her walk and was excited each day to be going out. We also received a daily report and a photo of Princess out snd about. I was a bit unsure about using a dog walker because my dog is very strong and isn’t great on a lead, but I would recommend Bronn.”
About: I cared for a dog when I was younger, the past couple years I care for 2 cats that we own as a family, yet I miss times when I would take dog for a walk or play in the park. I am self-employed as a taxi driver, so I am very flexible, yet school run in the morning is blocked as I am taking my child to school around 8-9 am. House with fenced garden, a big park near home, 2 polite indoors only female cats to keep the company. I respect your home as I do my own.

“Pebbles was very well looked after by Candi! She was treated like a member of the family and we got loads of pictures which was a lovely touch. We’ll be booking her in for our next break for sure!”
“Lovely lady, very accommodating to my last minute booking. Our dog clearly felt very at home with her and was clearly well cared for. We have already booked in for him to have another visit :)”
“Our dog Maze had a wonderful week at Taleb’s. T’s patience and excellent understanding of dogs meant we had no worries at all while we were away. He was also great at sending regular videos and she even came home having learnt a thing or two! Thank you so much!”
“Pitcha took great care of Frisco and kept us well updated throughout his stay. It was great to see he had an amazing time with Bacon, and has come home a very happy and tired pupper 😀”
“Craig and his family are lovely and took such good care of Herbert. We received great communication with photos and videos showing him having a good time. He was taken on long walks and seems to have had a wonderful time playing with Piper. Our only concern was that Herbert wouldn’t want to come home!”
“Fatima and family were brilliant with Clover, who is not an easy dog. She sent us loads of lovely and reassuring updates, videos and photos, which helped us relax and enjoy our holiday as we were quite anxious. I don't think Clover wanted to come home she had such a lovely time with her new pack! Fatima was also very happy to meet up in the run up to the holiday and now afterwards, too, which is lovely. We now have a trusted relationship that we'll definitely use again - thank you!!!”
“Obie was really well looked after by the whole family! He clearly had his own little holiday. It was very reassuring all the pictures I got set too! Carly and family went above and beyond making Obie at home with them. Thanks ☺️”
“Caro and family looked after our precious lab for ten days. They are very loving with her and we know she is in safe hands. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Caro as a sitter.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving Molly with Jess and Dom and when I picked up Molly after her stay, it seemed like she didn't want to leave LOL I got so many pictures and updates which was great and at that moment I knew Molly was in great hands and having a good time:) I would definitely leave Molly with them again ..if they would have her ?”
“Charlotte provided excellent care for our Ozzy. We felt she was very knowledgeable and felt totally at ease leaving him there for a night. She is very responsive and kept us informed. Lots of play and walks. Would definitely recommend her and Ozzy is looking forward to his next stay! :)”
“Georgina was very caring and friendly. Our dog was unwell. Georgina made sure our dog got the medication she needs. We were kept informed about how our pet was and the activities they had undertaken. It was helpful that Georgina has her own pet dog as our pup likes to play with other dogs. I would choose Georgina again to care for our dog.”
“Sophie and Jordan were absolutely incredible and loved Ollie like their own. Ollie basically had his own vacation while we were on our holiday! Down to earth people, great communication and made us feel instantly at ease with their natural love for pups. Could not recommend highly enough! Thank you both again 🥹💜”
“Rachel and her fam immediately put us at ease leaving Barney with them for the first time. They are very welcoming and have a lovely home. We received photos throughout the stay, and Barney made a new best friend in Quin, they even shared a bed together:) When I picked him up he was happy, relaxed and had a good long nap. Rachel was also very flexible in extending the stay on short notice. Thank you Rachel and hope to see you soon! Therese”
“I couldn’t have asked for more. Dart looked so happy in all pictures and videos of him. We were updated really well and he wanted for nothing ❤️ 10/10 😊😊 thank you for having him and looking after him so well for us.”
“Jessica was fantastic and Teddy was so at home at her house. I was nervous as this was my first time using a sitter but would recommend Jessica again. She kept me informed throughout Ted’s stay to reassure me. Thanks so much Jessica! X”
“We were so pleased with the care Trigger received during his stay with Alisha and Dan. He had an absolutely lovely time, especially playing with their dog Murphy, which was great to hear! Alisha and Dan were fantastic sitters—friendly, reliable, and clearly very caring. They kept us regularly updated with plenty of feedback, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive dog sitters. Trigger came home happy and relaxed, which says it all!”
“Sammy was fantastic! She took my booking pretty last minute after I was let down by a friend and there was no fuss. She really kept me updated over the whole weekend with pics and videos which was lovely. She was really accommodating with my plans changing, too. Bodhi had a great time and there was no fuss at all… he came home happy and didn’t seem to be totally upset like he usually is when I leave him which made me relax. I will 100 percent use her again if she would have Bodhi LOVE HER!! X”
“Karla was brilliant with our Bernese Mountain Dog, Rowdy. She kept us updated on how Rowdy was settling in, cared for her every need and was lovely to deal with. It’s clear that Karla and her partner love dogs and I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter. 10/10”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by dogs, and today our home is happily shared with our much-loved 17-year-old cat and our gentle 18-month-old English Pointer. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do – it’s part of who I am. This is a true family effort – my husband and our two children (aged 12 and 13) are just as animal-mad as I am. Together, we provide a warm, friendly, and reliable environment where your pets will feel loved, safe, and cared for just like they’re part of our family. Whether it’s cuddles on the sofa, playtime in the garden, or gentle companionship for older pets, we treat every cat and dog with the same affection and attention we give our own. You can relax knowing your furry family members are in experienced, caring hands. Both my husband and I work from home full time and so are on hand to look after your pet 24/7. We have a Pointer so we’re out walking him at least 2-3 times a day either in a secure field or in the woods behind our house. Please let me know if you have any questions or specific needs as I can tailor my schedule around your pet. I have a secure garden and at night the animals are in the lounge/ kitchen diner. Can crate them if needed. We have a detached family home with lots of space to run around and play!
About: I have taken care & had pets in my life from a young age, including, cats, dogs, birds, hamsters & horses! I am extremely comfortable around all animals & love to give them the care & attention they deserve! Having my own pets i know how hard it is to leave them & for them to be without you so always ensure they are taken care off & are having too much fun to be sad! I will also provide regular photo/video and text updates to give you peace of mind while you are away form them! I am available all day & walk my own dog 3x per day so would have no problem adding friends or walking the separately if needed. We have a large fully fenced garden with a lockable gate. We also have plenty of room for a large crate in all rooms of the house.
