“Billy and Molly were well looked after by Clare for their one night stay. They had all the comforts of home and enjoyed a lovely walk during the day. Clare sent photos and updates during their stay. They are having a longer stay later in the year and I will be more than happy to leave them anytime with Clare.”
“Sonny was so looked after and he absolutely loved his Stay! I definitely recommend Christine to anyone that is looking for a sitter that is passionate, knowledgeable and will take care of your dog like they are they’re own”

About: I am fully insured and have been caring for dogs for more than 15 years, loving every minute of it. Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent many years looking after my own dogs and understand how important it is to keep them happy, safe and comfortable. I currently have two friendly dogs who are a big part of my family. Archie is 3 years old, and Lottie is the newest member of our family at just 1 year and 2 months old. They are both spayed and extremely friendly with other dogs. If your dog enjoys company, they’ll have two lovely playmates to spend the day with, whether that’s playing in the garden, going for walks, or simply relaxing together. Looking after Archie and Lottie has given me daily experience with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, and making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable and loved. I understand that every dog has its own personality and routine, so I’ll always follow your instructions to help them feel at home. I know how difficult it can be to leave your dog with someone new, which is why I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can see how they’re getting on and enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving and happy home where your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection and care until you’re back together. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. During your dog’s stay, I’ll be at home with them, so they won’t be left alone. My own dogs are my priority every day, and I plan my routine around feeding times, walks, playtime and making sure they get the exercise they need. Living close to the beach and several lovely parks means I can take the dogs on enjoyable walks in different places, depending on their needs and your preferences. Because Archie and Lottie already have a regular routine, it’s easy to welcome another dog into our day. If your dog enjoys the company of other dogs, they’ll have two friendly playmates to spend the day with. There will be plenty of time for play, cuddles, rest and companionship, so they always feel loved and cared for. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can see how they’re getting on and have complete peace of mind while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and happiness will always come first. Before every stay, I’ll ask about their routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, any medications, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. I’m also happy to arrange a meet and greet before booking. This gives you and your dog the chance to visit my home, meet me, Archie and Lottie, and make sure everyone feels comfortable before the stay. My home is clean, safe and dog friendly, and I always supervise dogs while they’re together to make sure everyone is happy and getting along. Archie and Lottie are both very friendly and enjoy meeting other dogs, but I’ll always introduce them calmly and at their own pace. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks and any special instructions. Dogs will always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, plenty of love and attention, and regular toilet breaks throughout the day. I’ll also send regular photos and videos, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: We've had cocker spaniels in our family for around 18 years. Our 2 dogs lived a happy life with lots of walks locally in Whiteley and many trips to the beach for a run around and a swim. They lived until they were old ladies (14 &15). Our daughters have 3 dogs between them, who come to visit us a lot and this is their second home. We love having them around (2 cocker spaniels and a staffie). Your dog will get walks in the nearby woods/paths and plenty of time in our secure garden. Trips further afield at the weekends too if your dog is happy to travel in the car. If not, Whiteley has a lot of options for exercise. I work from home most of the week as does my husband Brian. There will always be one of us here for your dog throughout the day and night. Your dog will be a part of our family life and it will be our pleasure to look after them. I work from most most of the time, as does my husband. Your dogs will get an early morning walk and will have attention throughout the day. We have a large enclosed garden where they can play and snooze. Walks in the evening too and they will be free to enjoy the family home. Our garden is enclosed and side gate will be locked when dogs are at home with us. Our family have dogs and they may well visit when your dogs are here with us.
About: What sets us apart is that we offer a genuine home-from-home environment where pets are treated as part of the family. As a retired couple, we have the time, patience, and flexibility to give each dog plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Having grown up on a farm and lived with animals for most of our lives, we understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. We take the time to get to know each dog and follow the owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any medication or special requirements. We know how important it is for owners to feel confident while they are away, so we're happy to provide regular updates and photos. Our aim is to ensure every dog feels safe, relaxed, and loved, giving owners complete peace of mind. We will only take one dog at a time so every dog receives plenty of individual attention, playtime, walks and cuddles. As I am retired and my wife works part time, we have a flexible schedule that allows us to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in our care. We have a lovely dog called Bisca who is a huge part of our family and gives us so much fun - she loves her daily walks, cuddles and running for the ball. In the past we have looked after friends dogs and Bisca loves the companionship. Our daily routine is home-based, so we can provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. We enjoy spending time with animals and can easily adapt our routine to meet each pet's individual needs, whether that's sticking to a regular walking schedule, administering medication if required, or simply providing company and affection while their owners are away. We understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs, so we always aim to provide care that is as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Before each booking, we like to meet the owner and their pet to discuss feeding routines, exercise, medication, sleeping arrangements, and any special requirements. This also gives everyone the opportunity to get to know each other and ensure it's a good fit. When caring for pets in our home, we provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, companionship, regular walks, playtime, and affection. Our garden is fully fenced off so any pets can run carefree. We carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and daily routines. We treat every dog as if it were our own, making sure they feel relaxed, secure, and loved while they are with us. We are also happy to send regular updates and photos, so owners can enjoy their time away knowing their pet is in safe and caring hands.

“Natasha is a top sitter who took amazing care of my two dachshunds! Rolo & Cooper were very relaxed and happy when we collected them from their overnight stay with Natasha & her partner. Their home is beautiful, clean and comfortable. Natasha was patient with them when they didn’t settle straight away and kept in touch to let me know they were happy and calm, which I really appreciated. I would 100% recommend Natasha for sitting services and would definitely re-book ☺️ thank you so much! 5 stars and 10/10! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“This was the second time Mea and John looked after our sausage dog Frank while we were away, and once again they were absolutely brilliant. They were incredibly kind and even offered us a pick-up, which made everything so much easier. This time around, Frank had a few issues settling down to sleep, but Mea and John were so understanding and patient with him. They kept us constantly updated with messages and lovely photos, which gave us real peace of mind. Genuinely lovely people who go above and beyond, highly recommended!”

“Keighley was great! She kept me updated and sent lots of photos. My cat isn’t the friendliest but Keighley looked after him very well and left everything really clean and tidy”
“Kerry was very engaging before providing services, coming over to meet our cats beforehand. She looked after Anakin and Ahsoka wonderfully keeping us up to date with each visit and tending to their needs. Can highly recommend and will hopefully look to use her services again in the future.”
“Kirsty is absolutely amazing with my nervous dog, and very respectful and considerate. I messaged Kirsty first to explain about my dog to see if she is comfortable watching her, and she came for a couple of meet and greets to ensure that my dog is comfortable and happy before Kirsty watched her whilst I was out for the day. She was very attentive to everything I asked of her, and ensured to take notes to make sure that nothing got missed. I loved the photo updates Kirsty sent to me throughout the day and I am so pleased at how quickly my dog became comfortable around her, especially as she does usually take quite a bit of time to warm up to strangers. I am looking forward to asking Kirsty to watch my dog again so I can enjoy a stress free day out, knowing that my dog is in very safe hands!”
“Lorraine was absolutely fantastic whilst looking after my 5 month old kitten! Really prompt in replies and couldnt help enough.. especially when I had to book at short notice. If i could give more than 5 stars i would!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and currently have two of my own, including one that needs regular medication, so I’m confident with both routine care and special requirements. I’m patient, attentive, and understand different cat personalities, and I always aim to care for each cat as if they were my own.
“Mark is very trustworthy and reliable, I felt comfortable leaving him with my home and my cats while I was away. Great communication, made me feel relaxed about being away and kept me up to date each day. Looking forward to using his services again!”
“Absolutely fantastic service, she was kind when first meeting Poppy who wasn’t to sure at first! From the pictures it looked like Poppy really warmed up to Jennifer and looks relaxed. Which is a complete relief to know someone was there for her while we went to a concert. Thank you so much Jennifer!!”
“Ashleigh was great with Lola, came to meet us before we went away, was available at relatively short notice for us to go away and provided regular updates during visits. Recommend Ashleigh to look after any pet 😊”
About: I’ve been an animal lover all my life and have had had the privilege of being both a cat and dog mum. I lived in Dubai for 10 years and this is where I had my first experience of taking in 3 rescue kittens, that I went onto adopt. Then my rescue desert dog, followed by many more. They all returned with me to the UK and lived long and happy lives. I’ve also been a dog walker and cat companion for the RSPCA. Whilst I don’t have my own pets at the moment, we have many in the family that I am called on to look after. I work for myself so am able to run my own diary and I’m able to fit any pet care services around my current responsibilities. Although I don’t currently offer pet boarding services in my own home. I have a fenced garden and internal doors that allow for the front door to be separated from the main living area.
“Natasha was fantastic with my cat Olten, he can be temperamental but she was patient and he even sat on her knee. She sent me lots of updates and pictures and last minute did an extra night which was so helpful! She also left the house super clean. I would definitely book again 😊”
“I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Maria. I knew I'd made the right choice before she had even met the cats, and they took to her so naturally when she did. It was a great experience, with regular updates and the satisfaction knowing I had nothing to worry about throughout and on my return. Thank you again.”
“Ellie Mae was great. She made a special trip to come and meet me and Stanley my dog before her drop in session. Knowing that she was coming allowed me to relax about having to leave Stanley at home alone.”
About: I’ve grown up around cats and have hands‑on experience helping to look after my dad’s two. I’m confident with feeding routines, keeping litter areas clean, and understanding typical cat behaviours — from shy, independent cats to affectionate, social ones. I’m calm, patient, and always make sure cats feel safe and comfortable during visits.
“Jane was absolutely lovely, she put my mind at ease knowing my babies were in safe hands! Would highly recommend, she has lots of pets herself so knows exactly what she is doing. The pictures and updates were so appreciated. Will definitely use Jane again!”
“Jenny watched our two girls again while we were away to get married! As usual, kept us fully up to date with photos and texts daily and looked after them both perfectly. Already booked in again with Jenny when we go on our honeymoon. Thanks again Jenny! ”

About: We all love dogs here, and dogs seem to like our relaxed house. We took a large dog that would pull your arm off, treated it like it was our child and it turned into the most loyal friend you could hope for. As myself and my husband work at different times, there is always someone at home to cater to doggie's needs. My husband goes for a walk every evening, and is missing Bruno when he does. We have a large, 30 metres, fenced in garden where dogs are free to play and run and fetch, and poop of course. And they can sleep where they are comfortable.

“Pauline is absolutely lovely! She takes great care of our puppy, Mavis, and is very flexible. Pauline’s house and garden are secure and right from our first meeting I’ve had no concerns. Mavis gets excited when I start to pack her bag because she knows she’s going to Paulines’s and is always very happy to see her - that speaks for itself about the care she receives and the fun she has! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pauline.”
About: Previously a dog groomer, I'm very confident with young and senior dogs and understand they all have their own quirks and personalities. I work from home 95% of the time and if I'm not here my partner is able to work from home. I have an in tact male French bulldog myself who is super friendly and always looking for new friends. We only house dogs from one household at a time I work from home 95% of the time and have a flexible work pattern.

There is normally always someone at home during the week and we spend a lot of time at the weekends out on country walks Fenced garden, big house, pets allowed on the furniture and a french bulldog who is always happy to make some new friends and keep yours company
About: Grew up with a border collie (lots of long walks and training). I recently lost a Romanian Princess (rescue dog) and want to care for other people's beloved pets (cats and dogs) the way I took care of her. I'm working from home full time. This means I can visit in the morning, lunchtime and evening. Alternatively, I could work from your house (WiFi please). I live with my husband (a bigger live of pets than i) and my 2 year old son. My son is at nursery or other childcare during the week. For boarding or day care, your fur baby wouldn't see him during the weekday. However, he knows to "wave hello and give them some space", they are given separate spaces to eat and rest. I can walk your dog on lead or drive them to a safe location for them to be on or off lead. We could do a little training (commands or sniff). Cuddles as wanted by your pet (cat or dog). I find this question tricky because I care for your pets as they need. Each dog or cat are very different in their wants and needs. Due to childcare responsibilities, and to be fair to my partner, I can only house sit for 1 or 2 nights.

Lots of Love & Attention: Plenty of cuddles, playtime, and interaction are standard! I’m currently working part time from home so your dog would have company all day long.

I will be the sole carer for your dog even though they will be spoilt rotten by all. I have a fenced in garden and am at home all day. I can give your dog all of the attention and reassurance it needs whilst settling. I can accommodate a crate or just bedding whatever is necessary.
About: I’m a nurse working bank shifts alongside my passion for animal care. I’ve owned reactive dogs for many years, so I understand the importance of calm handling, patience, routine and being constantly aware of surroundings while out walking. Early 5am quiet walks, off-the-beaten-track trails and avoiding stressful situations for dogs are something I’m very used to. We are a family home with children, so any dogs staying with us would need to be comfortable around children and a normal family environment. I offer gentle, reliable pet care with daily beach walks, peaceful hikes and a focus on making every dog feel safe, relaxed and happy. No other animals in the home. We only have one boarding dog at a time unless dogs come from the same house hols. I will be sole care for the dog during its stay. 5:00am – Quiet early morning walk 6:00am – Breakfast and calm rest time 8:00am – Garden play, enrichment or sniff games 10:00am – Beach walk or quiet countryside hike 12:00pm – Rest and nap time in the home 2:00pm – Toilet break and gentle play 4:00pm – Short afternoon walk or enrichment activities 6:00pm – Dinner time 7:00pm – Family time, cuddles and settling for the evening 9:00pm – Final toilet break and bedtime Our home has a fully enclosed garden and is just a 5 minute walk from the beach, perfect for calm daily walks and outdoor time. We are a relaxed family home with children, so dogs staying with us would need to be comfortable in a family environment. Your dog would not be left alone for long periods and would be treated as part of the family, with plenty of company, care, exercise and quiet time to settle and relax.
About: I’ve helped friends with pet care for years. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime in the garden, or quiet cuddles at home, I’m all about making your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m available for boarding on weekends, and free most weekdays after 2 PM for drop-ins, walks, or house sitting. Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or some companionship during the day, I’m happy to help and can adapt to your routine. I keep water bowls full, follow feeding schedules, and make sure pets get plenty of attention and exercise. If I’m hosting pets at my home, I ensure a quiet, calm environment with secure spaces for rest, play, and outdoor time. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and lots of love, just like family.
“A big thank you for looking after Loki at such short notice. Friendly welcome and Loki made himself at home very quickly. He had two walks which he would have thoroughly enjoyed. Once again, thanks so much for looking after him so well, Steven.”
About: I'm a dog magnet, they seem to gravitate to me. I love their company and feel a house is not a home without a dog sitting next to me on the sofa. We lost our elderly dog a few months ago and he needed a lot of help as he had serious mobility issues. We have recently rescued a large male Rottweiler and we have 2 female cats who are very affectionate. All the animals get the best possible level of care, we give them everything they need to live a healthy and happy life. We live in a lovely house in a perfect location on a footpath opposite a forest.
About: I’ve looked after pets for 23 years, and animals have always been part of my everyday life. I live with Gizmo the pug, my permanent shadow who’s convinced my bed belongs to both of us and two cats who think they run the house. Because of that, I’m used to juggling different temperaments, routines, and a lot of personality. Friends, family, and neighbours have relied on me for walking, feeding, meds, bath time, and keeping their pets calm and comfortable. I notice the small things, keep a steady routine, and treat every dog as if they’re part of my own slightly chaotic, very loved little crew. I’m currently a SAHDM (if you know you know). I was made redundant in November so for the foreseeable my life is solely pet focussed I keep things steady, predictable, and low-stress. In my home, pets settle into a calm routine with regular walks, feeding times, and plenty of company. I have a large, secure garden for safe outdoor time, and Gizmo the pug usually acts as the welcoming committee. I manage introductions carefully so every animal feels comfortable. I supervise closely, keep spaces clean, and make sure each pet has its own quiet area to relax.
“Ace enjoyed another day yesterday with Mea & John & family, he had fun in their garden with their dogs! Rebooked for our hols in may & Aug because we know Ace is very happy with Mea & John!”
“Harlan was very happy with Carlie but this was his first time and I feel that we have to see how it goes. I’m happy with the care and walkies Carlie gave him. Very pleased for him to go there this week”

“Great first walk. Lovely first impressions. I have 2 dogs with 2 very different sets of needs. Well managed and needs met to a high standard. Look forward to our next booking.”
About: I have cared for dogs of all kinds from jack russels to xl bully’s, I have experience in reactive dogs and also nervous dogs I also have a strong passion for all animals I also have horses,goats,pigs and chickens so I’m a whole hearted animal lover and have acres of fields that are private property with all enclosed fencing so dogs I look after can run for miles I’m based by titchfield / Whitley my property is very rural and countryside based so no pavement walks so I have access to rivers and walkways i also have access to the working farm located across the road where dogs often come with me however this is optional I also own my own van with suitable dog crates so dogs can be transported safely and securely I take great care in all animals I look after and tailor the dogs needs to what suits them best I am trustworthy and would never put dogs in any harm or risk no overcrowding I prefer dogs to have space Please no reactive dogs and due to the heatwave I will not be walking dogs or boarding in the heatwave Thanks so much !! I work part time from 9:30-2 weekly I have weekends free and anytime after 2 I am very flexible as I work for myself so can pop over for walks or drop ins as much as need however if a dog is in need I will happily work overtime Pets in my care are looked after on my private rural yard and surrounding secure land in the Titchfield/Whiteley area. I provide a calm, structured and spacious environment where dogs can safely enjoy countryside exercise, enrichment and attention away from busy roads and crowded parks. Dogs are always supervised carefully and I never overcrowd, as I believe dogs are happier and safer with plenty of space and individual attention. Depending on the dog’s needs and temperament, care can include secure off-lead exercise, countryside walks, enrichment activities, rest breaks and lots of reassurance and affection. A day includes lots of space to run around in the sun with fresh running water and kennels are available in an emergency to separate dogs however we do not use kennels unless it’s an emergency I tailor care to each individual dog and always prioritise safety, comfort and wellbeing. Owners also receive regular updates, photos and messages for peace of mind throughout the day.
“Life saver. We contacted Keighley en route to France as family members work arrangements changed and we found ourselves with a huge problem. Fortunately Keighley was able to step in and provide cover to walk and feed the dogs. Without her I think we would have had to cut short our holiday. Absolute life saver, professional and reliable. I cannot thank you enough.”
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I knew what a dog was. I have always dreamed of having my own dog and since bringing home my own pup, I just want to spend time with dogs, be it walking, spending time with, or a bit of training. I am confident with all breeds, behaviours, and energy levels. I love them all I’m currently working full time from home but due to its flexibility (and a long chat with boss man), I am able to commit to dog walks and drop ins during the day. I am fully flexible at weekends I have a fenced garden with a young German shepherd pup. He is crate trained and has plenty of garden space to run around. We do a lot of enrichment and training throughout the day to work his brain, making walks a bonus to burn off a little energy
About: I've grown up with cats and love spending time with dogs, and I have sat for owners of both cats and dogs. I love all animals and would be excited to look after all kinds of pets! I adapt well to the pet's needs and personality, allowing them to warm up to me naturally. I will be able to spend lots of time with your pet! I travel frequently to see my partner who lives overseas, so a regular work schedule doesn't suit my needs. That means the flexibility of pet sitting is right up my street, and is my main focus. Apart from a few hobbies, I will be spending all my time at home taking care of your fur baby! I like to learn your pet's routines and keep to them where I can to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet, so I will send messages about how the pets are getting on as frequently as you'd like. Daily pupdates are not too much to ask!
“Natalie took ,Rubi and Saffi our cockerpoos for their daily walks ,the dogs have been walked by Nat on Couple of occasions,if the dogs could talk they’d say they loved being walked by Natalie ,we will definitely be using your service again Many thanks”
“Katie is a lovely caring person and the way she talks to my dog is fantastic. He loves his walks and is so happy when she comes to visit. It's hard to trust a stranger with your animals but she is just so fantastic with them and walking dogs isn't a job it's a hobby for her.”

About: Always loved dogs. Had 2 westies myself but sadly when left my ex they stayed with them. So thought I would use this to use up some of my free time I work in events so normally work evenings but work pattern chances from time to time. Looking to enjoy time off and make some four legged companion friends too Fence garden. As well as lots of fields and beach near me for plenty of walks. As well as plenty of love and cuddles as well
“Abi was a brilliant dog walker for our elderly springer spaniel who we have never left with anyone before. Having met up beforehand we felt reassured that all would go well and Abi was a caring and confident person with dogs. She did a wonderful job and we would definitely recommend her, friendly and reliable. If we ever need help again we’ll be straight in touch! Thanks again Abi!”
About: Grew up with a border collie (lots of long walks and training). I recently lost a Romanian Princess (rescue dog) and want to care for other people's beloved pets (cats and dogs) the way I took care of her. I'm working from home full time. This means I can visit in the morning, lunchtime and evening. Alternatively, I could work from your house (WiFi please). I live with my husband (a bigger live of pets than i) and my 2 year old son. My son is at nursery or other childcare during the week. For boarding or day care, your fur baby wouldn't see him during the weekday. However, he knows to "wave hello and give them some space", they are given separate spaces to eat and rest. I can walk your dog on lead or drive them to a safe location for them to be on or off lead. We could do a little training (commands or sniff). Cuddles as wanted by your pet (cat or dog). I find this question tricky because I care for your pets as they need. Each dog or cat are very different in their wants and needs. Due to childcare responsibilities, and to be fair to my partner, I can only house sit for 1 or 2 nights.
About: Growing up we always had household pets, i have slept with atleast 1 cat on my bed all of my life. We always saved wildlife as my mum worked nights and used to find injured or abandoned animals and we have carried that on volunteering for several local animal causes. I have 5 horses and my own private stable yard, i have only just lost my 17 and a half year old pom who used to come with me there. At home now i have 3 cats and 2 gerbils, at the yard i have 8 rescued pigeons. Animals have taken the forefront of my life and i wish to continue my passion into everyday work. I am up early every morning. I have 3 house cats at home who are fed and fresh trays. I then go to my horses, depending on jobs for the day ill pick up some of the dogs on route to walk over my fields or pop in to any holiday pets if they are on route. I custom fit my days to make sure all needs are prioritised accordingly. Most days are the same others are well coordinated. I will always use a rear entrance if possible, to decrease risks of escaping pets. When walking dogs i follow all uk guidelines, stick to safe areas and only allow dogs off lead in enclosed settings with perfect recall. I have many long lines to allow freedom with restriction. I can have dogs on the land where my horses are which is fully enclosed.
About: I don’t have any prior professional experience of looking after dogs, however I have had a dog since I was 11 years old and love him to pieces and have been one of the main caretakers in looking after him whether that be, feeding, walking, trimming fur, helping take to the vets/ give medication etc. I graduated university in July and have lot of free time in between looking for jobs so am available to look after your pet when needed 😊 I can easily help keep your dog to where you want them to be within the house, can put them in a crate when and if needed and am good at following through with rules and instructions.

About: I’ve been an animal lover all my life and have had had the privilege of being both a cat and dog mum. I lived in Dubai for 10 years and this is where I had my first experience of taking in 3 rescue kittens, that I went onto adopt. Then my rescue desert dog, followed by many more. They all returned with me to the UK and lived long and happy lives. I’ve also been a dog walker and cat companion for the RSPCA. Whilst I don’t have my own pets at the moment, we have many in the family that I am called on to look after. I work for myself so am able to run my own diary and I’m able to fit any pet care services around my current responsibilities. Although I don’t currently offer pet boarding services in my own home. I have a fenced garden and internal doors that allow for the front door to be separated from the main living area.

“Billy and Molly were well looked after by Clare for their one night stay. They had all the comforts of home and enjoyed a lovely walk during the day. Clare sent photos and updates during their stay.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who grew up surrounded by family dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I'll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they're with me. I have a friendly 1 year old female Golden Retriever who loves playing and socialising with other dogs, making great company for any dog who enjoys canine companionship. I work from home and live with my partner, Aidan, so your dog will have plenty of company and supervision throughout the day. We also have a large, fully fenced garden and go on two daily walks through the nearby forests, giving your dog lots of opportunities to play, exercise, and explore. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I'll treat your dog as if they were one of my own. Whether they love long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing at home, I'll make sure they receive plenty of care, affection, and attention so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. I work from home, so your dog will have company and supervision throughout the day, every day of the week. Your dog will enjoy a consistent routine with plenty of attention, playtime, and two daily walks, so they'll have plenty of enrichment throughout the day. Your dog will be cared for in a loving home with a large, fully fenced garden for safe outdoor play and plenty of supervised attention throughout the day. I'm happy to follow your dog's usual routine, including being put in the crate if needed. They'll be treated like part of the family and are welcome on the sofa and in the bedroom if that's what they're used to at home.
“Sonny seemed happy and relaxed in his surroundings when we collected him. We received regular updates whilst away which were reassuring. Communication was good throughout and we were entirely satisfied that Sonny received all the care and attention he needed. Thank you Kirsty.”
“This was the second time Mea and John looked after our sausage dog Frank while we were away, and once again they were absolutely brilliant. They were incredibly kind and even offered us a pick-up, which made everything so much easier. This time around, Frank had a few issues settling down to sleep, but Mea and John were so understanding and patient with him. They kept us constantly updated with messages and lovely photos, which gave us real peace of mind. Genuinely lovely people who go above and beyond, highly recommended!”
“Michaela is an amazing sitter! She made everything to make sure Caetano would feel like being home ❤️❤️❤️ very sweet, always giving updates and sending pictures. Caetano was very happy there. I highly recommend her!”
About: Both me and Jack are animal lovers, between us we have grown up with many varied breeds of dogs in our families and have a great amount of experience being around dogs, including training puppies and attending dog training classes. We both currently work 8am to 5pm Monday to Thursday. So evenings, Fridays all day and night, Saturdays day and night, and Sundays day and night would be our current availability. We have a one story detached bungalow in a quiet cul-de-sac with a decent sized fenced off garden, close to great dog walking routes. This allows us to give your dog plenty of fresh air and exercise whilst also having a quiet indoor environment.
“Sofia and her Dad Rod were amazing!! They looked after Rocky and Fudge like part of the family. Sofia sent updates and photos. I could not recommend enough. Everything was fab and we were able to enjoy our break knowing the doggies were happy. Highly recommended!”
“Wally had a lovely time with Brandel and her family. We had pictures and a video and were kept up to date on how he was doing. Would def recommend and will book again:)”
About: I’ve helped friends with pet care for years. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime in the garden, or quiet cuddles at home, I’m all about making your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m available for boarding on weekends, and free most weekdays after 2 PM for drop-ins, walks, or house sitting. Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or some companionship during the day, I’m happy to help and can adapt to your routine. I keep water bowls full, follow feeding schedules, and make sure pets get plenty of attention and exercise. If I’m hosting pets at my home, I ensure a quiet, calm environment with secure spaces for rest, play, and outdoor time. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and lots of love, just like family.
“Jennie was really great. Very accommodating with drop off and pick up, communicated well, and looked after him beautifully. Tommy had a great time, was very happy when I picked him up, and will be very happy to make a second visit. 🙂”
About: Hi, I’m a retired dog lover living with my husband and our own friendly dog. As I’m home full-time, your dog will never be left alone and will be part of a calm, loving home. We’ve had dogs since 2006, and I volunteered as a dog walker for the RSPCA, so I’m confident with many breeds, reading body language, and supporting anxious dogs, including those with separation worries. We live close to the beach, and your dog will enjoy regular walks, often twice a day, plus time in our secure enclosed garden. Walks can be on or off lead, depending on your dog’s recall and your wishes. I offer a caring, structured environment with plenty of attention and affection. Dogs aren’t allowed on the furniture, to help maintain consistency in our home. For the safety and comfort of all dogs in my care, I only accept neutered males and spayed females, and every booking starts with a meet and greet, to make sure we are the right fit. My aim is to provide a genuine home from home, where you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy and well cared for. I’m at home full-time, so daycare and dog sitting fit easily into my everyday routine. With my own dog, I’m already out on regular walks often along the beach, and I can adapt to your dog’s usual routine. It means your dog gets attention throughout the day in a calm, consistent setting. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I offer a calm home environment with a secure garden, constant supervision, and a consistent routine. I generally only take one dog at a time. If you have two dogs that live together and need care, this can be discussed. Walks are tailored to your dog’s needs, with careful assessment before any off-lead time. Every stay starts with a meet and greet, to make sure everyone feels safe and relaxed.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. Growing up with dogs gave me a strong understanding of their behaviour, needs, and personalities, while always having cats has made me confident with independent and more sensitive pets too. I own a nearly 2-year old (*intact male*) Labrador, so am very used to the energy, routine and care that a young dog needs. Over the years, I’ve also looked after and handled family dogs of all sizes and temperaments, so I’m comfortable with everything from energetic walks to calm companionship at home. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while they are with me. I work part-time and am mostly based from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for time with your furry friends. I’m out every day with my own dog, so regular walks are part of my routine. I do have two young children, so there are school runs to factor in, but I’m available for walks, sitting, and check-ins between 9am and 2:30pm most days. I’m also happy to board friendly dogs over weekends, as long as they’re comfortable around other dogs and children. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. At home, I have a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can play and explore securely, along with my friendly Labrador who enjoys the company of other dogs. My garden office is open and positioned so I can keep a constant eye on your pet, allowing for regular interaction, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel relaxed and settled. I’m respectful of your space, attentive to your pet’s individual needs, and make sure they receive plenty of care, attention, and exercise while you’re away.
