“Joanna is an excellent dog sitter. We had regular updates whilst we were away which were lovely to receive and put us completely at ease. Bob our frenchie pug loved his time with her. She took him on lovely walks and we couldn’t have asked for any more. We’ll be booking again if we ever need dog cover”
“Excellent care for my Sheba Inu even although he was not as behaved as he should have been. Natalie is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED as she is both skilled and knowledgeable about dogs and the care taken is exceptional.”
“Bethany and James were perfect sitters for Alfie, they sent photos and updates daily to ensure we were kept well informed of his happiness. A week away from Alfie is a long time for us, but we can tell he loved it. We fully recommend Bethany and will be booking again soon.”
“Chelsey welcomed our doggie into her home in such a warm way that we knew instantly she would be really well looked after. We appreciated the updates during the evening and our doggie felt very much at home. Would definitely recommend! And thanks Chelsey!”
“Steve and his wife were absolutely brilliant and we were so happy with the care they gave Duke. Their dog Toby was full of energy and so friendly, they became best buddies. Every day while on our holiday we received photos and a blog of their day, which not only put our minds at rest, it provided a laugh and a slight concern Duke won't want to come home after being treated so well :-) Cannot recommend them highly enough and will definitely use again.”
“Kathleen looked after my 9 month old staffie Who if anyone has had a puppy staffie knows there a handful But Kathleen agreed and my pup could not of gone to a better dog boarder I’ve already booked her for next month”
“Seems unfair to only leave a 5star review as this was the most pleasant experience thus far. Elizabeth’s home is so welcoming and oh so lovely. Stunning garden, great location with a woodland walk just steps away. From the moment we all met, we all just felt at home and our doggies bonded very quickly. Thanks so much for taking great care of our doggies, i was worried they wouldnt want to leave your home. We would very happily look to you again when we need to arrange boarding. Thank you for washing the bedding and food pots totally unexpected and the dogs looked fresh too.”
“Daniel was great with our anxious dog, Rorschach. We were kept up to date with photos and videos during our week long vacation! When we came back, we picked up a very happy dog. We would be happy to leave our boy with Daniel again for future vacations!”
“Highly recommend! Despite booking this visit at short notice, Jake was extremely quick to respond. Leah was fabulous and obviously cared immensely about taking the best care of Oggy. He had a great time and I was updated very regularly with lovely pictures and videos. Oggy can’t wait to go back and stay there again!”
“Can’t recommend Deana enough! Our Arla was so well looked after, had so much fun and we received loads of updates throughout her stay🥰 she came back a super happy and tired puppy 🐕”

About: I’m a newly quailed Occupational Therapist and a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for my own 10 year old Poodle. Looking after my dog over the years has given me a strong understanding of pet care; including feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, administering routines; and recognizing changes in behavior and wellbeing. My professional background has helped me develop excellent observations, communication and caregiving skills. I am trained to be patient, attentive, responsible, and focused on safety, all of which are valuable when caring for pets. I pay close attention to individual needs and understand the importance of consistency, routine, and creating a calm environment. I am confident caring for pets of different ages and temperaments. including senior dogs who may require extra patience, gentle exercise, and closer monitoring. I enjoy providing both physical activity and companionship to help pets feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my combination of personal dog ownership experience, professional caring skills, and genuine love for animals. I understand that pets are family members, and I will treat your furry friend with the same care, respect, and affection that i give my own dog!💗 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I make time every day for feeding, cleaning litter trays, and giving pets attention and playtime. I enjoy creating a calm and comfortable environment so cats feel relaxed while their owners are away. I’m organised and reliable, so I always make sure pets are cared for on time and according to their usual routine. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so the pet feels comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding at the right times, refreshing water, cleaning litter trays thoroughly, and spending quality time playing or giving attention. I’m always respectful of the owner’s home and keep everything clean and tidy. I also send regular updates and photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Sophia could not have been more welcoming or accommodating. She released really sensitive and responsive to Lincoln’s needs (he is almost blind) and made us feel totally relaxed that he was happy and in good hands. Would 100% recommend and hope to use again! Thank you Sophia”
“Mostly when leaving your dog with someone any owner is looking for reassurance that they will be well cared for. Robert gave us that confidence and reassurance from the moment we met him. Calm and caring towards our dog. Would happily recommend.”

About: Hi, I’m Leah, and pictured with me is my beloved Miniature Pinscher, Lilly, who sadly passed away in November. Dogs have been at the center of my life since the day I was born, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up in Ireland, our home was always filled with animals, and that lifelong passion eventually grew into professional dog boarding and pet care. After losing Lilly, opening our home in Bexhill to dogs has become a deeply meaningful way for me to continue doing what I love most — providing a safe, calm, loving, and enriching environment for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience raising dogs from birth and professionally managed a daily dog boarding business in Ireland from the age of 18. Over the past year, I have also worked alongside a highly rated professional pet sitter, helping manage a wide range of sits involving everything from young puppies to senior dogs with complex medical and behavioural needs. I am confident caring for: * Puppies requiring structure, routine, and positive reinforcement * Senior dogs needing patience, gentle handling, and medication administration * Dogs with separation anxiety or reactivity * Large and powerful breeds, as well as small and delicate companions Throughout my life, I’ve personally owned and cared for a wide variety of breeds, including Jack Russells, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Toy Poodles, a German Shepherd, an Alaskan Malamute, and Lilly, my Miniature Pinscher. I also helped raise three generations of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, giving me extensive experience with dogs through every stage of life. One thing owners quickly notice about me is how much pride I take in creating a clean, calm, and welcoming environment. I’m an incredibly homely person and genuinely enjoy maintaining an organised and immaculate space, whether dogs are staying in our home or I’m caring for them in yours. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust completely, and I treat every home and animal with the utmost respect and care. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable. I provide reliable communication, daily updates, and plenty of photos and videos so you can fully relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and being treated like family. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your dog and discuss how I can help provide the best possible care while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide dogs with plenty of time, attention, companionship, and structure throughout the day. I’m highly flexible with my availability and can accommodate boarding, daycare, walks, drop-ins, and house sitting depending on your needs. Because I genuinely love having dogs around, your pet will never simply be “fit in” around my schedule — their comfort, routine, exercise, and wellbeing will always be a priority. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or prefers a quieter, calm environment, I’m very happy to adapt to what suits them best. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is the most important part of pet care for me. I understand that every dog is different, so I always take time to learn their routines, boundaries, personality, and individual needs to help them feel secure and comfortable. My home in Bexhill is clean, peaceful, and highly organised, with plenty of attention, affection, play, rest, and supervision throughout the day. I am extremely attentive when it comes to safety during walks, feeding, medication administration, introductions, and maintaining routines exactly as owners request. I have a fenced Italian stone garden with access to the seafront and cooler woodland walks and open field space. My car has a dog seat for smaller breeds, and safety buckle leads to ensure their security while travelling in my car. I also have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and pets with medical needs, so I’m confident adapting to more complex care requirements when needed. If caring for your pet in your own home, I will always treat your space with complete respect and maintain the highest standards of cleanliness, communication, and reliability. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and cared for while you’re apart.

“Natasha was looking after my cats while I was gone for a few days to visit a friend. She was really good at communicating and my cats were very well looked after 💕 i would highly recommend her services”
About: We have both always had dogs in our families, mainly labradors but are happy to care for any dog with whatever is required to make them feel at home and safe & secure. We have also had cats in the past & are happy to attend your home to feed them, change litter tray etc whilst you are away. I am retired and my wife often works from home too so we can walk dogs individually if needed. We have a detached bungalow and fully enclosed rear garden. We often walk our dog on the beach, nearby parks and in the woods in summer when it’s hot. We have a fenced garden and a one 3 year old neutered female Labrador of our own so your dog would need to be friendly with other dogs.
“Vicky is an absolute animal angel and I can’t praise her enough. She couldn’t do enough for my cat and stayed far longer than I expected her to. She carried out my instructions to the letter and kept me up-to-date with messages, videos and photos. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending her. Thank you so much.”
“Lauren did a fantastic job of looking after our two cats while we were away. She was conscientious, reliable and excellent at keeping us updated and responding to messages. The cats had the companionship they needed and Lauren made every effort to maintain their daily routine. Our cats were very comfortable with her and were more than happy to get their cuddles, brushes and strokes from her right from the start. We came home to happy, healthy cats, a clean and tidy house and were able to enjoy a worry free trip. Lauren comes highly recommended!”

Furthermore, we handle your home with the utmost diligence. My TrustedHouseSitters and Airbnb profiles demonstrate that I am a considerate and tidy housekeeper. Having previously worked as a janitor, I am incredibly thorough. I have a green thumb for plants, prioritize your home's security, and am always happy to perform routine maintenance.

You can check out some fun videos I've made while sitting on Instagram. Pets We've Owned Over the years we have raised West Highland Terriers, Shiba Inus, Yorkshire Terriers, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, a Rottweiler, a Golden Retriever, a German Shepherd, cats (including a Russian Blue), chinchillas, and even a frog!

Feline & Exotic Friends We have looked after countless cats across Thailand, the UK, and the USA, plus multiple rabbits, lizards, and chinchillas globally. ...And So Many More! Please note, the lists above are just a snapshot! We have cared for so many more breeds and mixes than we could possibly fit into this biography. Whatever your dog's breed, background, or quirks, chances are we have the hands-on experience to make them feel completely at home. We are the sitters you can rely on to give you double the assurance of anyone else on the market. We don't just watch your pets; we welcome them into our family. I am self-employed with minor side gigs, enjoy quiet evenings in and regular trips out into nature. I'm a very homey person and will be with and available for your animals the entire time I am with them. Providing pets with exercise, love, safety and my undivided attention is something I dedicate myself to. None of my side gigs are time intensive so feel assured I'm an extremely present sitter. Daily videos, pictures, updates and even walk tracking reports will give you complete peace of mind that your beloved pet is receiving above and beyond what mum/dad paid for. Just reach out and let's chat about your needs! My goal when house sitting is to provide COMPLETE peace of mind to travelers and pet parents who need truly loving replacements! As someone who loves going abroad and has my own dogs, I understand fully just how difficult it can be to balance the two. Trusting your beloved family members to anyone is always nerve wracking and full of uncertainty. That's what I'm here remove! I know just how valuable complete peace of mind is when you're travelling. How transformative it can be as a pet parent who wants to be present during their trip away. I also understand that achieving complete peace of mind is different for each parent. Discovering and encouraging parents to share every detail of their hopes, wants and expectations during a sit is my motto. Nothing is 'too much' to ask when it comes to achieving your complete peace of mind. Be as picky as you like. I am here for YOU! In regards to safety, trust and environment. As sitters we know that some pet parents may want cameras inside or outside the house. While I have no issue with this, I do require for that they be disclosed and depending on their location, disconnected during the sit. I've experienced cameras in bathrooms before and noone wants to see that! 😆

“I picked Brenna because she lives locally, but have really lucked out. I adopted Suri - a retired racer geyground - two weeks ago and we are still establishing our rhythms. It is obvious Brenna has a huge amount of patience and love for dogs and I feel confident leaving Suri in her care. It’s been nice getting the updates through the Rover app on what they’ve been up to. It’s been nice seeing them bond with each visit. Would recommend Brenna 100%”

I’ve also looked after someone else’s dog while I’m in Brighton and taken the dog for walks, as well as looking after her in her owners house and in my own home. I’m currently a student who has a long summer, I’m pretty much staying in Brighton for all of it and would love to occupy some of my time looking after some dogs.

About: Hello! I'm Frankie and I live in St Leonards, just a short walk from the beach. I'm a mum of two teenagers who are now busy living their own lives, which means my home is a little quieter these days. I work from home as a Brand and Creative Manager for St John Ambulance, and I'd love some canine company during the week. Dogs have always been part of my life. Growing up we had family dogs, and as an adult I've owned a Labrador and spent plenty of time around Bearded Collies, Staffies and Jack Russells. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I live in a garden flat with a secure enclosed garden, and because I mostly work from home I can easily fit in two or three walks a day. I'm also looking for an excuse to spend more time outdoors, so your dog will definitely not be short of exercise, attention or affection. My home is very much a dog friendly home. Dogs are welcome on the sofa for cuddles and company while I work or watch TV in the evenings. I'll happily follow any routines, feeding schedules or house rules that help your dog feel comfortable and settled. I usually travel to London one day a week for work, but this is flexible and can be arranged around bookings if needed. I'm not quite ready to commit to having a dog of my own again, but I miss having dogs around enormously. Looking after other people's dogs feels like the perfect solution. If you're looking for someone reliable, experienced and genuinely delighted to spend time with your dog, I'd love to hear from you ❤️ I work from home most of the week as a Brand and Creative Manager for St John Ambulance, so I'm around for company, feeding, toilet breaks and walks throughout the day. I usually travel into London one day a week, but this is flexible and can be planned around bookings where needed. Outside of that, I have plenty of time for pets and can comfortably fit in two or three walks a day for dogs. My own children are teenagers and rarely at home now, so I have the time, space and energy to give visiting pets lots of attention and companionship. I live in a ground floor garden flat in St Leonards with a secure enclosed garden and plenty of nearby walking routes, including the seafront. Pets are welcome as part of the household and will be treated as members of the family rather than left on their own all day. I've lived with dogs for most of my life, including Labradors, Staffies, Bearded Collies and Jack Russells, and I'm comfortable following individual routines, feeding schedules and care instructions. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing, sofa cuddles or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, settled and cared for while you're away. As a manager at St John Ambulance, reliability, responsibility and trust are a big part of my day to day life.
“Madalyn truly loves dogs and my boy feels very comfortable with her and her pooches. After the first day, he had such a wonderful time that he now drags me to the door and toddles off to play with his new best friends and snuggle Madalyn. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my dog was in a home surrounded by happy, well-looked-after dogs, and treated as part of the family rather than just a booking. I got regular updates, photos, and could see how relaxed and content he was the whole time. It’s obvious that Madalyn understands dog behaviour and goes above and beyond to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about dogs, this is the perfect place. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Matthew and Tony were excellent! Incredibly flexible with a short notice booking, early start time and a pick up time based on a hospital appointment. Trixie had a brilliant time, lots of running and playing chase. Matthew put her at ease really quickly and dealt with a sensitive dog really well. I would highly recommend Matthew, and I will 100% use him again.”

There are plenty of walks in the area.

About: Hi, I’m Leah, and pictured with me is my beloved Miniature Pinscher, Lilly, who sadly passed away in November. Dogs have been at the center of my life since the day I was born, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up in Ireland, our home was always filled with animals, and that lifelong passion eventually grew into professional dog boarding and pet care. After losing Lilly, opening our home in Bexhill to dogs has become a deeply meaningful way for me to continue doing what I love most — providing a safe, calm, loving, and enriching environment for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience raising dogs from birth and professionally managed a daily dog boarding business in Ireland from the age of 18. Over the past year, I have also worked alongside a highly rated professional pet sitter, helping manage a wide range of sits involving everything from young puppies to senior dogs with complex medical and behavioural needs. I am confident caring for: * Puppies requiring structure, routine, and positive reinforcement * Senior dogs needing patience, gentle handling, and medication administration * Dogs with separation anxiety or reactivity * Large and powerful breeds, as well as small and delicate companions Throughout my life, I’ve personally owned and cared for a wide variety of breeds, including Jack Russells, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Toy Poodles, a German Shepherd, an Alaskan Malamute, and Lilly, my Miniature Pinscher. I also helped raise three generations of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, giving me extensive experience with dogs through every stage of life. One thing owners quickly notice about me is how much pride I take in creating a clean, calm, and welcoming environment. I’m an incredibly homely person and genuinely enjoy maintaining an organised and immaculate space, whether dogs are staying in our home or I’m caring for them in yours. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust completely, and I treat every home and animal with the utmost respect and care. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable. I provide reliable communication, daily updates, and plenty of photos and videos so you can fully relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and being treated like family. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your dog and discuss how I can help provide the best possible care while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide dogs with plenty of time, attention, companionship, and structure throughout the day. I’m highly flexible with my availability and can accommodate boarding, daycare, walks, drop-ins, and house sitting depending on your needs. Because I genuinely love having dogs around, your pet will never simply be “fit in” around my schedule — their comfort, routine, exercise, and wellbeing will always be a priority. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or prefers a quieter, calm environment, I’m very happy to adapt to what suits them best. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is the most important part of pet care for me. I understand that every dog is different, so I always take time to learn their routines, boundaries, personality, and individual needs to help them feel secure and comfortable. My home in Bexhill is clean, peaceful, and highly organised, with plenty of attention, affection, play, rest, and supervision throughout the day. I am extremely attentive when it comes to safety during walks, feeding, medication administration, introductions, and maintaining routines exactly as owners request. I have a fenced Italian stone garden with access to the seafront and cooler woodland walks and open field space. My car has a dog seat for smaller breeds, and safety buckle leads to ensure their security while travelling in my car. I also have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and pets with medical needs, so I’m confident adapting to more complex care requirements when needed. If caring for your pet in your own home, I will always treat your space with complete respect and maintain the highest standards of cleanliness, communication, and reliability. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and cared for while you’re apart.

Furthermore, we handle your home with the utmost diligence. My TrustedHouseSitters and Airbnb profiles demonstrate that I am a considerate and tidy housekeeper. Having previously worked as a janitor, I am incredibly thorough. I have a green thumb for plants, prioritize your home's security, and am always happy to perform routine maintenance. Returning a home in the same or better condition than when we arrived is a point of strong personal pride. 🐕 Our Hall of Fame: Pets We've Loved Our history of raising our own pets and caring for others is exhaustive, covering a massive range of temperaments, strength, and confidence levels. You can check out some fun videos I've made while sitting on Instagram. Pets We've Owned Over the years we have raised West Highland Terriers, Shiba Inus, Yorkshire Terriers, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, a Rottweiler, a Golden Retriever, a German Shepherd, cats (including a Russian Blue), chinchillas, and even a frog! Global Sits: Large & Powerful Breeds We are confident handlers for big dogs. Our sits include Great Danes in Australia, German Shepherd/Husky mixes in the UK, a Labrador/GSD mix in California, Golden Labs in the USA, Rough Collies, Boxers, and many more. Global Sits: Small & Medium Breeds We have cared for Bull Terriers, Basset Hounds, Bichon Frises, French Bulldogs, Westies, Shih Tzus, Poodles, Pomeranians, Dandy Dinmonts, and Chihuahuas. Feline & Exotic Friends We have looked after countless cats across Thailand, the UK, and the USA, plus multiple rabbits, lizards, and chinchillas globally. ...And So Many More! Please note, the lists above are just a snapshot! We have cared for so many more breeds and mixes than we could possibly fit into this biography. Whatever your dog's breed, background, or quirks, chances are we have the hands-on experience to make them feel completely at home. We are the sitters you can rely on to give you double the assurance of anyone else on the market. We don't just watch your pets; we welcome them into our family. I am self-employed with minor side gigs, enjoy quiet evenings in and regular trips out into nature. I'm a very homey person and will be with and available for your animals the entire time I am with them. Providing pets with exercise, love, safety and my undivided attention is something I dedicate myself to. None of my side gigs are time intensive so feel assured I'm an extremely present sitter. Daily videos, pictures, updates and even walk tracking reports will give you complete peace of mind that your beloved pet is receiving above and beyond what mum/dad paid for. Just reach out and let's chat about your needs! My goal when house sitting is to provide COMPLETE peace of mind to travelers and pet parents who need truly loving replacements! As someone who loves going abroad and has my own dogs, I understand fully just how difficult it can be to balance the two. Trusting your beloved family members to anyone is always nerve wracking and full of uncertainty. That's what I'm here remove! I know just how valuable complete peace of mind is when you're travelling. How transformative it can be as a pet parent who wants to be present during their trip away. I also understand that achieving complete peace of mind is different for each parent. Discovering and encouraging parents to share every detail of their hopes, wants and expectations during a sit is my motto. Nothing is 'too much' to ask when it comes to achieving your complete peace of mind. Be as picky as you like. I am here for YOU! In regards to safety, trust and environment. As sitters we know that some pet parents may want cameras inside or outside the house. While I have no issue with this, I do require for that they be disclosed and depending on their location, disconnected during the sit. I've experienced cameras in bathrooms before and noone wants to see that! 😆
“These guys were brilliant with our dog. Really went out of their way to help our dog get settled, met beforehand to check the dogs got on, and walked to the house together too on the day again to help our dog settle. Definitely recommend them :)”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I got my own at age 6, regularly petsitting for neighbours and friends from age 13. I also volunteered several days a week at an animal shelter for four years, so I've had lots of experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes, ages, and needs. I have a rescue lab mix of my own now, who’s always looking for a new friend. I work 100% remote with a flexible schedule so I’m easily able to fit my day around any dog’s routine. I’m familiar with dogs’ typical needs as I take care of my own! I'm happy to follow whatever routine your dog is used to in your home, and can adapt to your dog's specific needs and preferences. I'll communicate with you on a regular basis so you know your dog is doing well.

“I can’t recommend Natasha enough! They are incredibly consistent and always punctual, which gives me such peace of mind while I’m working. My dog absolutely loves their walks, and I love knowing I can rely on them 100%. Five stars!”
About: I’m an experienced pet/house sitter, having looked after everything from blind toy poodles to escape artist hamsters in their homes - including managing baths, medication and vet visits. I grew up with beautiful energetic dogs and affectionate cats, and adore spending time with animals. I have a slew of friends’ dogs for who I’m the go-to person for overnight stays and walks, and like to get close to the pets I look after. I’ll always follow your instructions for your pet to the letter (but will have a sweet spot for dogs that are allowed cuddles with me on the sofa 🙂) I am currently not working and so can be very attentive to your pet. I am very flexible about timings (pick ups, drop offs, arrivals), walking times and duration of care. I have a car (although it has a closed boot so can only carry dogs on the back seat) I like pet sitting in the animal’s own home as it puts them at ease and smooths the discomfort that can come from being looked after by a new person If you prefer them at my place, my basement flat has a very safe walled garden, but I also have access to a beautiful park-like communal garden, and the park and seafront are 5 mins from my flat.
About: I've had dogs around me for most of my life. From puppies to senior dogs, Chihuahuas to German Shepherds, I've looked after them all. Having my own dog means I understand the responsibility, routine and emotional needs pets have. My dog is friendly and playful, but also loves lazing around the house. To keep all dogs safe and happy during their stay, I’m licensed to board dogs under Rother District Council and need to follow a few simple requirements. (Licence number 35921) All dogs should be fully vaccinated, up to date with flea and worming treatments, and have had the kennel cough vaccine. I’ll also need to see proof of this, as part of my licensing conditions. For everyone’s safety, dogs must also be microchipped. Thank you for your understanding — it helps ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all our furry guests! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I'm at home most days, and with my flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to give pets attention, care and affection they need. I live with my partner and we have four children age 8 to 10 who are gentle and love animals, so pets get lots of playtime and companionship, although I will be the care taker of your dog. Whether pets are in my home or their owners, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. In my home, I have a pet-friendly environment with space to play and rest. I follow the pets usual routine as closely as possible - this includes feeding schedules, walks and any special care they need. I also make sure they get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I am DBS checked and have public liability insurance.

About: We have both always had dogs in our families, mainly labradors but are happy to care for any dog with whatever is required to make them feel at home and safe & secure. We have also had cats in the past & are happy to attend your home to feed them, change litter tray etc whilst you are away. I am retired and my wife often works from home too so we can walk dogs individually if needed. We have a detached bungalow and fully enclosed rear garden. We often walk our dog on the beach, nearby parks and in the woods in summer when it’s hot. We have a fenced garden and a one 3 year old neutered female Labrador of our own so your dog would need to be friendly with other dogs.

About: Hi! I’m Truly – a proud Cane Corso mum to a 2-year-old gentle giant. I understand how hard it is to trust someone with your dog, especially if they’re large, strong, or have specific needs. I’ve been around animals my entire life — from raising Rottweilers and French Bulldogs to caring for my current Cane Corso, and working with breeds like Vizslas, Collies, Spaniels, and Poodle mixes. I don’t just love dogs, I understand them. I also had a senior Chihuahua who lived a full, happy life until the age of 22, so I understand the special care and patience required for older pets as well. What truly sets me apart is my experience with large and working breeds, my deep respect for each dog’s individuality, and my calm, confident handling style. I studied Equine Management at Plumpton College and worked on a horse yard from age 13, so early mornings, physical care, and hard work in all weathers are second nature to me. I offer reliable, structured care with a ton of love and attention because I treat every dog like they’re part of my own pack. I’m also happy to accommodate raw feeding routines, special diets, or behaviour goals you’re working on. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while your dog’s in my care, whether it’s a walk, pop-in, or overnight stay. Let’s set up a meet & greet and find the best routine for your pup! I can’t wait to welcome them. Please note: For safety reasons, I do not offer overnight stays. However, I’m happy to stay late into the evenings and arrive back early in the mornings to provide your pets with lots of love, companionship, and care throughout the day. Animals have always been at the heart of my daily life. I currently care for my Cane Corso and horse alongside my work, so early mornings, structured walks, feeding routines, and quality time with animals are just part of my normal rhythm. Whether it’s rain or shine, I’m used to planning my day around their needs, it’s second nature! My schedule is flexible enough to accommodate drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, and I make sure every pet I look after gets the same level of commitment and love as my own. I don’t offer day care in my home as I have a dog of my own, but I’m happy to help with walking, drop-ins, or daytime house sitting at your place! If I’m in your home, I work to mirror your routine exactly, so your dog feels comfortable, secure, and stress-free. I always prioritise clear communication, updates, and consistency in care.

About: Hello! I'm Frankie and I live in St Leonards, just a short walk from the beach. I'm a mum of two teenagers who are now busy living their own lives, which means my home is a little quieter these days. I work from home as a Brand and Creative Manager for St John Ambulance, and I'd love some canine company during the week. Dogs have always been part of my life. Growing up we had family dogs, and as an adult I've owned a Labrador and spent plenty of time around Bearded Collies, Staffies and Jack Russells. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I live in a garden flat with a secure enclosed garden, and because I mostly work from home I can easily fit in two or three walks a day. I'm also looking for an excuse to spend more time outdoors, so your dog will definitely not be short of exercise, attention or affection. My home is very much a dog friendly home. Dogs are welcome on the sofa for cuddles and company while I work or watch TV in the evenings. I'll happily follow any routines, feeding schedules or house rules that help your dog feel comfortable and settled. I usually travel to London one day a week for work, but this is flexible and can be arranged around bookings if needed. I'm not quite ready to commit to having a dog of my own again, but I miss having dogs around enormously. Looking after other people's dogs feels like the perfect solution. If you're looking for someone reliable, experienced and genuinely delighted to spend time with your dog, I'd love to hear from you ❤️ I work from home most of the week as a Brand and Creative Manager for St John Ambulance, so I'm around for company, feeding, toilet breaks and walks throughout the day. I usually travel into London one day a week, but this is flexible and can be planned around bookings where needed. Outside of that, I have plenty of time for pets and can comfortably fit in two or three walks a day for dogs. My own children are teenagers and rarely at home now, so I have the time, space and energy to give visiting pets lots of attention and companionship. I live in a ground floor garden flat in St Leonards with a secure enclosed garden and plenty of nearby walking routes, including the seafront. Pets are welcome as part of the household and will be treated as members of the family rather than left on their own all day. I've lived with dogs for most of my life, including Labradors, Staffies, Bearded Collies and Jack Russells, and I'm comfortable following individual routines, feeding schedules and care instructions. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing, sofa cuddles or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, settled and cared for while you're away. As a manager at St John Ambulance, reliability, responsibility and trust are a big part of my day to day life.
“Daniel was great with our anxious dog, Rorschach. We were kept up to date with photos and videos during our week long vacation! When we came back, we picked up a very happy dog. We would be happy to leave our boy with Daniel again for future vacations!”
“Highly recommend! Despite booking this visit at short notice, Jake was extremely quick to respond. Leah was fabulous and obviously cared immensely about taking the best care of Oggy. He had a great time and I was updated very regularly with lovely pictures and videos. Oggy can’t wait to go back and stay there again!”

About: I’m a newly quailed Occupational Therapist and a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for my own 10 year old Poodle. Looking after my dog over the years has given me a strong understanding of pet care; including feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, administering routines; and recognizing changes in behavior and wellbeing. My professional background has helped me develop excellent observations, communication and caregiving skills. I am trained to be patient, attentive, responsible, and focused on safety, all of which are valuable when caring for pets. I pay close attention to individual needs and understand the importance of consistency, routine, and creating a calm environment. I am confident caring for pets of different ages and temperaments. including senior dogs who may require extra patience, gentle exercise, and closer monitoring. I enjoy providing both physical activity and companionship to help pets feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my combination of personal dog ownership experience, professional caring skills, and genuine love for animals. I understand that pets are family members, and I will treat your furry friend with the same care, respect, and affection that i give my own dog!💗 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I make time every day for feeding, cleaning litter trays, and giving pets attention and playtime. I enjoy creating a calm and comfortable environment so cats feel relaxed while their owners are away. I’m organised and reliable, so I always make sure pets are cared for on time and according to their usual routine. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so the pet feels comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding at the right times, refreshing water, cleaning litter trays thoroughly, and spending quality time playing or giving attention. I’m always respectful of the owner’s home and keep everything clean and tidy. I also send regular updates and photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.
“This is the first time I’ve ever left a pet in a stranger’s care but I knew right from initial contact with Rebecca that Arnold would be in safe, caring hands. Her communication is excellent and she’s made sure Arnold feels welcome and loved. Arnold has had huge fun with her dog Finn! He’ll definitely be back!”
“Matt and Kaitlyn were brilliant with my dog Lola. They kept me updated throughout with lovely messages and photos, including some Idyllic shots of her watching the sunset, which was really reassuring. Lola looked completely relaxed and happy, and it was clear she was having a lovely time in their garden. They were communicative, thoughtful and clearly cared about making her feel comfortable. I’d happily book with them again and would definitely recommend them!”
“Mostly when leaving your dog with someone any owner is looking for reassurance that they will be well cared for. Robert gave us that confidence and reassurance from the moment we met him. Calm and caring towards our dog. Would happily recommend.”
“Nunu was a dream for our two dogs. They loved her straight away. She was brilliant with us too - super communicative. It was great to leave our 1 year old and 10 year old with her because she was so competent, fun and friendly. Will definitely use again!”

“Mitsy spent 4 nights with Bethany and her family. It was clear from the photos we received and updates that Mitsy was very well looked after, happy and settled where she was and very much treated like part of the family.”
“Rachel is incredible- she looked after our Dachshund so well.. Rachel is an animal lover and that radiates off her; my dog warmed to Rachel instantly- which was so comforting and reassuring. I highly recommend Rachel; she is professional, kind and very knowledgeable in pet care. When I fetched my dog after our holiday- he was happy and looked like he had - had a good holiday himself!! Rachel sent daily updates of my dear dog daily…. Which was very nice to receive as our dog is very much part of the family and we missed him so much but Rachel’s amazing care put us at ease.”

About: Hi, I’m Leah, and pictured with me is my beloved Miniature Pinscher, Lilly, who sadly passed away in November. Dogs have been at the center of my life since the day I was born, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up in Ireland, our home was always filled with animals, and that lifelong passion eventually grew into professional dog boarding and pet care. After losing Lilly, opening our home in Bexhill to dogs has become a deeply meaningful way for me to continue doing what I love most — providing a safe, calm, loving, and enriching environment for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience raising dogs from birth and professionally managed a daily dog boarding business in Ireland from the age of 18. Over the past year, I have also worked alongside a highly rated professional pet sitter, helping manage a wide range of sits involving everything from young puppies to senior dogs with complex medical and behavioural needs. I am confident caring for: * Puppies requiring structure, routine, and positive reinforcement * Senior dogs needing patience, gentle handling, and medication administration * Dogs with separation anxiety or reactivity * Large and powerful breeds, as well as small and delicate companions Throughout my life, I’ve personally owned and cared for a wide variety of breeds, including Jack Russells, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Toy Poodles, a German Shepherd, an Alaskan Malamute, and Lilly, my Miniature Pinscher. I also helped raise three generations of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, giving me extensive experience with dogs through every stage of life. One thing owners quickly notice about me is how much pride I take in creating a clean, calm, and welcoming environment. I’m an incredibly homely person and genuinely enjoy maintaining an organised and immaculate space, whether dogs are staying in our home or I’m caring for them in yours. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust completely, and I treat every home and animal with the utmost respect and care. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable. I provide reliable communication, daily updates, and plenty of photos and videos so you can fully relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and being treated like family. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your dog and discuss how I can help provide the best possible care while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide dogs with plenty of time, attention, companionship, and structure throughout the day. I’m highly flexible with my availability and can accommodate boarding, daycare, walks, drop-ins, and house sitting depending on your needs. Because I genuinely love having dogs around, your pet will never simply be “fit in” around my schedule — their comfort, routine, exercise, and wellbeing will always be a priority. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or prefers a quieter, calm environment, I’m very happy to adapt to what suits them best. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is the most important part of pet care for me. I understand that every dog is different, so I always take time to learn their routines, boundaries, personality, and individual needs to help them feel secure and comfortable. My home in Bexhill is clean, peaceful, and highly organised, with plenty of attention, affection, play, rest, and supervision throughout the day. I am extremely attentive when it comes to safety during walks, feeding, medication administration, introductions, and maintaining routines exactly as owners request. I have a fenced Italian stone garden with access to the seafront and cooler woodland walks and open field space. My car has a dog seat for smaller breeds, and safety buckle leads to ensure their security while travelling in my car. I also have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and pets with medical needs, so I’m confident adapting to more complex care requirements when needed. If caring for your pet in your own home, I will always treat your space with complete respect and maintain the highest standards of cleanliness, communication, and reliability. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and cared for while you’re apart.
