About: I have a genuine love for animals and share my home with my friendly 5 year old, medium size Cockapoo, Ralph, who loves having canine companions to play with 🐶🐶. Based in Burton, Christchurch, we're perfectly located near beautiful fields, farms, the forest, and the beach, providing plenty of variety for fun, enriching walks to suit every dog. Whist at home, your pet will also have access to a fully enclosed, secure rear garden where they can safely relax and play between adventures. I provide a caring, home from home environment where your dog will receive lots of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. If your pet prefers a single pet environment, we’ve got you covered. I keep my own dog Ralph, with me every other week, which leaves plenty of space for animals that prefer no other pets around. Please ensure to include this in your enquiry and i will be able to advise the weeks this is possible. I work fully from home during the week, offering flexibility with both drop off and collection times. During the week I typically walk my dog in the morning and afternoon, but flexible to cater to your pets needs equally. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home offers a spacious downstairs area where dogs are free to relax and feel at home, along with a fully enclosed, secure rear garden for safe outdoor play and toilet breaks. I only care for a small number of dogs at a time, allowing me to give each one plenty of attention, supervision, and care. My own friendly Cockapoo, Ralph, also provides a calm and sociable companion for dogs who enjoy the company of others.

“Lisa and Nicola are great. They both welcomed my dog Jasper as if he was their own. They had him for 3 nights, took him for amazing walks and lavished him with attention alongside their own dog Lochi. He’s been pining for the whole family since he came home!! Would 100% recommend, thank you both 🐾”

Maggie was cared for very well although she seemed very tired when we collecter her but hardly suprising given the hot weather and being away from Mum n Dad. Thank you for taking good care of Maggie and we hope she didn't give you too many problems. Many thanks Kim & Bernie”

About: I work from home on flexible part time hours and my partner has a workshop in our garden meaning your dog will always have great company. We had a family dog whilst our kids were growing up and we both had dogs when growing up. We have experience of both male and female dogs of all ages. We are comfortable with training , administering any medication, grooming routines and love a good walk to either forest or beach. I work part time most of which is spent working from home. My job is very flexible and I can fit around the needs of the pets in my care. I have a 3 bed bungalow with fenced garden all around. I live here with my wife and our daughters visit from London occasionally. We are walking distance from the beach and have a pet friendly car to get out onto the New Forest. We love a good long walk on the beach or forest and for shorter jaunts we are close to Fawcetts field.

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals and genuinely love being around them. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish and chickens, so I’m confident looking after pets with very different personalities, routines and needs. I’m friendly, reliable and attentive, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are in safe, caring hands while you’re away. I’m happy with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship and keeping to their usual routines, while giving them plenty of fuss and attention along the way. 😊 I’m available every day and have plenty of flexibility as I work part-time from home. This means I can easily fit pet care around my daily routine, including regular walks, feeding, playtime and plenty of attention. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and can be flexible with timings to suit you and your pets. I understand how important it is to know your pets are in safe and caring hands. I’ll always follow their usual routine and your instructions carefully, whether I’m caring for them in their own home or mine. I’m attentive, reliable and will make sure they receive plenty of company, affection, exercise and care while you’re away.

About: Hi there, I am Lisa. My wife and I work from home and we would love to have your lovely dog come stay with us! We currently have a gorgeous 2y old black miniature poodle boy (neutered) who is very friendly and easy-going. I also had another dog previously from puppy to 15 y old, so I am an experienced owner and comfortable with all sizes, breeds and personalities! We know how important it is to find someone local you can trust - we hope we can be those people for you and will care for your pet as if they are our own, with plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles and regular photo updates. Happy to meet before and see how we get on! With our dog we do a big walk in the morning and late-afternoon/evening at one of our dogs many favourite spots - the park, forest or seaside. Our poodle loves the water so a swim is definitely on the cards for a hot day! Then they can cuddle up while we both work at home usually. We break the day up with games in the garden, like fetch, tug or find-it, and are always available for cuddles. We're happy to adapt to your dogs energy and requirements. We have a decent sized bungalow with a big garden and secure fence. Your dog can make themselves comfortable wherever they fancy and we will always keep an eye on them while they are settling in.

Nyomi’s flexibility was great I messaged pretty late with my request and she’s came straight back which made me feel at ease.

About: My beloved dog, Crumble, joined tennis ball heaven last year and ever since then, there has been a huge paw shaped hole in our hearts. Life means it’s tricky to have our own fur baby again for a few years and instead, we’ve enjoyed the company of others. We have had dogs for over 20 years and are very comfortable with excitable young puppies as much as caring for senior dogs with medication needs etc. I am a secondary school teacher, teaching locally in a comprehensive for over 20 years being Head of Subject and Head of Year. Tristan also works as a specialist technician at school. We would love to use our weekends and school holidays between now and Christmas this year for furry companionship. In addition to teaching in school, I also privately tutor and work from home two to three days a week and therefore also have the ability to do some term time day based care and support until Christmas 2026. Thereafter, I am solely working from home on a part time basis, and won’t be in school and so will have full availability to be able to have dog company all day, every day. We promise to offer love, care and undivided attention for your pooch! We currently work part time and full time in a local school. This means that in school holiday time we have no work and can just give full attention to your dog’s needs. The same applies for weekends throughout the school year and any week day care we have capacity for up until Christmas this year. Then from January l will solely working from home on a part time basis as I will just have my private tutoring business and therefore have full capacity for every option for dog care all day, every day . If we have a dog with us it will never be left unsupervised and will always have at least one of our full attention I am just completing my Professional Dog Walkers and Sitters qualification with the British College of Canine Studies. I have also purchased independent insurance for your peace of mind. We have the luxury of going between two accommodations in the area. Our home has a fenced garden with lovely walks around the Mudeford quay and Mudeford woods patch. We also have a sizeable static caravan at Hoburne which dogs love coming to stay with us at. Here, we have the joys of being right on our private cliff top and the beach and sea in front, alongside the easy option of getting in to the forest for walks. It’s doggy heaven! We don’t have any pets of our own presently and instead are enjoying the company and companionship of others

About: I have a genuine love for dogs and hands-on experience caring for them. I previously had two dogs of my own, and I looked after them with full responsibility and care throughout their lives. This experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to understand dogs’ needs and behaviors. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship. I also pay close attention to routines and any special care instructions. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and share my home with my friendly 5 year old, medium size Cockapoo, Ralph, who loves having canine companions to play with 🐶🐶. Based in Burton, Christchurch, we're perfectly located near beautiful fields, farms, the forest, and the beach, providing plenty of variety for fun, enriching walks to suit every dog. Whist at home, your pet will also have access to a fully enclosed, secure rear garden where they can safely relax and play between adventures. I provide a caring, home from home environment where your dog will receive lots of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. If your pet prefers a single pet environment, we’ve got you covered. I keep my own dog Ralph, with me every other week, which leaves plenty of space for animals that prefer no other pets around. Please ensure to include this in your enquiry and i will be able to advise the weeks this is possible. I work fully from home during the week, offering flexibility with both drop off and collection times. During the week I typically walk my dog in the morning and afternoon, but flexible to cater to your pets needs equally. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home offers a spacious downstairs area where dogs are free to relax and feel at home, along with a fully enclosed, secure rear garden for safe outdoor play and toilet breaks. I only care for a small number of dogs at a time, allowing me to give each one plenty of attention, supervision, and care. My own friendly Cockapoo, Ralph, also provides a calm and sociable companion for dogs who enjoy the company of others.

“Mark & Megan looked after Maggie during the hot weather for two nights as we were attending our daughters wedding. Maggie was cared for very well although she seemed very tired when we collecter her but hardly suprising given the hot weather and being away from Mum n Dad. Thank you for taking good care of Maggie and we hope she didn't give you too many problems. Many thanks Kim & Bernie”

Charlotte sent photos every day and the dogs had a large safe garden to play in. We will certainly be booking again with Charlotte and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and safe holiday home for their pet.”

About: I work from home on flexible part time hours and my partner has a workshop in our garden meaning your dog will always have great company. We had a family dog whilst our kids were growing up and we both had dogs when growing up. We have experience of both male and female dogs of all ages. We are comfortable with training , administering any medication, grooming routines and love a good walk to either forest or beach. I work part time most of which is spent working from home. My job is very flexible and I can fit around the needs of the pets in my care. I have a 3 bed bungalow with fenced garden all around. I live here with my wife and our daughters visit from London occasionally. We are walking distance from the beach and have a pet friendly car to get out onto the New Forest. We love a good long walk on the beach or forest and for shorter jaunts we are close to Fawcetts field.

She was excellent at communicating before and throughout the booking - we got regular updates, photos, and videos which really put our minds at ease. Rory clearly had a fantastic time with Shadia’s lovely family and their sweet dog Skye. It was especially reassuring to know that Shadia was thoughtful and attentive during the heatwave, making sure Rory stayed safe and comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Absolutely great! Gayle understands long dogs and I think my rescue girlie loves her as much as Gayle loves her. My dog has separation anxiety and behavioural problems from her previous home, so it's a great result as it's the first time she has needed to stay overnight and the following day away from home. She got lots of cuddles and walks in the local woods and Gayle sent lots of pictures during the stay. Everybody happy, and I'll have no hesitation about taking my dog to Gayle again.”

About: Hi, I'm Andy, I'm a reliable, caring animal lover based in the New Forest. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, because I consider my dog a part of the family. My goal is to make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and well looked after while you're away. I've spent years around dogs and have had my beagle Lando for 5 years. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long forest walks, playing, or simply curling up for a cuddle (on the furniture), I'm happy to tailor my care to suit them. I'm dependable, calm, and very atuned to a dogs needs. I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is having a great time. What you can expect from me: * Friendly and dependable care * Plenty of exercise and attention * Regular photo and video updates * Care tailored to your dog's routine * A safe, and loving environment I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! I'm available at weekends for day care and overnight boarding at our home in the New Forest. No availability during the week as I work full time. I have a large walled garden that's completely secure, dogs are welcome to come in and out as they please. I'm very relaxed so dogs are welcome on furniture and I have space for their crate / bed if that's how they prefer to sleep. I have a crate in the car that I can use to transport your dog for longer walks or you can supply your own. I have children so your dog must be trustworthy and used to being around them. I also have a lovely beagle called Lando who is great around other dogs and a fantastic companion.

“Mabel recently stayed with Joanne and her family. I sent her packing (a little nervous due to it being my first rover) and with a million warnings about what she MIGHT do! 🤣 Turns out Mabel was an absolute dream so they must have been brilliant at looking after her. I had regular updates and pictures. Timings were sorted out easily and we kept in touch via Whatsapp. Joanne has a really secure garden - which made me feel so much more comfortable leaving her there. It felt like a home from home setting. I have two children of my own and Joanne's two seemed to love her as much as her own. They were super excited to have her. She was allowed upstairs and just slipped into their family life. She had plenty of walks and was fed well. I wouldn't hesitate at using Jo again! Thanks guys! 🐾🐾”

“This was our first time using petsitters through Rover and we had a fantastic experience with Mitch and Lizzie. Toffee absolutely loved her stay and had several walks and a bit of training too ! They kept me fully updated over the weekend which was lovely to see how genuinely they enjoyed having a dog to stay too. It frees us up a bit to have an extra bit of help with our dog. Highly recommend.”
