“Teresa has been fantastic with looking after our elderly dog Ebony, especially taking care of her while we were on holiday in this hot weather, walking her in when it was cooler and making sure she was comfortable. Very good communication and photos everyday, which was very comforting for us. Ebony was so happy to stay with Teresa and we would recommend using her services 100% - Thank you Teresa”
“Rachel asked all the right questions to find out exactly what my dog's needs were. My dog settled in at Rachel's home straight away, Rachel gave her plenty of exercise and kept me updated on her progress. After one overnight stay my dog didn't want to leave! Will definitely book again and be confident that my dog's in good hands with Rachel.”
“Very friendly hosts! Sid the resident dog also friendly and sociable! Well equipped for pampered pooches. Also hosts very accommodating for me last minute extending stay! Will be back….”
“Vinny had a wonderful time staying with Andrea and Luka. Andrea sent regular updates and photos throughout the day, which gave me real peace of mind while he was with her. By the time I picked him up, he was tuckered out and ready for bed. I would thoroughly recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.”
“Bruce had a lovely time with Claire. We received some lovely and welcome updates and photos reassuring us he was in good hands. When we picked him up he was very glad to see us but was obviously comfortable at Claire's and certainly not in a mad rush to get away. Thanks again Claire.”
“Teddy loved his time with Katarzyna, she looked after him so well and he was one of the family and we would 100% use her again. We also really appreciated the regular updates, thank you so much.”
“Meg looked after scruff for the weekend. He’s an older rescue dog and I was anxious about leaving him for the first time. Meg was great very welcoming Lovely big garden ! Perfect. Meg kept me updated with photos. Scruff was perfectly relaxed. I’m so grateful to Meg offering him a lovely family home and great care. Highly recommended ❤️”
“Amanda, Trevor, and their family took exceptional care of our two dogs. They were communicative, kind, and very attentive to our pups throughout the two-week stay. Our large dogs each have their quirks, and it's clear that Amanda and Trevor are both very knowledgeable and compassionate in the way they cared for them. Any pup would be lucky to stay with them!”
“Reggie had the most wonderful time with Prerna. We received regular updates and knew he was extremely well cared for throughout. We would 100% recommend her and would absolutely rebook for any future dates. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our Reggie!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Maggie over the bank holiday! Especially in the hot weather. We a;pre coated the updates - I think Maggie had just as much fun on her own little holiday as we did!”

“We were so pleased to find Lisa and really grateful that she was able to look after Luna at short notice. Luna is a nervous dog but seemed to have a great time. Thank you Lisa.”
“Eirida and family took great care of our cockapoo and he had a lovely time playing with Coco! We received lots of photos and videos and would not hesitate to use Eirida again in future.”

“Kin is very responsible, friendly, and pleasant to talk to. She always followed instructions 100% and went above and beyond my expectations. She sent very detailed video reports, was incredibly friendly with my cat, and tried to make unpleasant procedures (like taking pills) as comfortable as possible. I saw on camera that my boy truly enjoyed every visit! He's very shy and doesn't always like new people, but this experience was wonderful. He even came to her for petting, which is rare for him! I'm so glad I contacted Kin, and I felt very calm during my vacation, as I was confident that she would handle my cat's care perfectly, given his health issues and cautious, introverted nature.”
“Emma has been the perfect person for our needs. Perfectly on time when organising the visits and very helpful also when we needed some small interventions with our cats while we were away. We couldn't recommend her enough.”
“Lauren was absolutely brilliant. It’s the first time we’ve used Rover, and she made us feel totally safe about leaving our cat in her care. We had daily updates and photos of him. And we just got home, and he’s looking very well looked after We will definitely be using this service again.”
“Jazz was fantastic! We received photos and brief updates twice a day, showing us two happy cats. It’s clear that our cats enjoyed Jazz caring for them and she certainly made a friend of our male cat with him running out to greet her car as she arrived ! (His sister remained shyer as is her nature but allowed small pets and attention) All the cat dishes were washed up, Jazz had taken our bin to the curb and she went above and beyond by popping some milk in the fridge for us as she knew we were arriving in the early hours and would fancy a cuppa! We will definitely be looking to have Jazz care for the cats again.”
“Ghazala is one of the best people we could wish for to look after our cat. This was the second time around, and I must say we were extremely relaxed knowing she was in the best hands possible. Thank you, Ghazala 😊”
About: I’ve cared for cats of all ages over the years, including my own cat who was part of the family for 20 years. I have experience with cat drop-ins, feeding routines, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure cats feel calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has a different personality — some are social and affectionate, while others prefer space and routine — and I always adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and most relaxed.
“Ryan was great, super friendly and my cat took to him immediately. Really attentive during the drop-in visit, played with her, sorted food, water and litter tray. Would absolutely recommend (and if my cat could type, I bet she would too!)”

“Marketa was so kind and caring, stepping in for an overnight stay when our original cat sitter cancelled at the last minute. She took wonderful care of Blade, and our home, and sent very cute photos and videos to show that Blade was comfortable and happy!”
“Rachael did a week of overnight cat sitter whilst we were away on holiday. We usually have family watch our cats but no one was free so we were obviously nervous to try someone new. However Rachael exceeded our expectations. The cats seemed really happy when we got home which is also a good sign that they’ve been well taken care of, and the house even looked more sparkling clean than we left it. She made sure to give us lots of updates and daily photos. Would recommend Rachael for sure!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and that passion is now shared with my two young sons. Our current family includes two dogs—brothers we helped welcome into the world when I fostered their mother—and a once-stray cat. Now five years old, they are gentle, well-socialized, and wonderful companions. With years of experience caring for animals at every life stage, from bottle-feeding newborns to supporting senior pets, I understand the unique needs of each age. Whether it’s administering medication or providing extra comfort, your pet will be in capable and caring hands. Our home is a warm, safe space where pets are treated as family. We’d be honored to care for yours.
“Samantha was professional in her approach throughout the initial contact, booking process and pet sitting. She worked hard to build a relationship with our rather distant cat, and provided useful daily up-dates. The feeding area was left spotless and tidied away as we requested. I will be using Samantha again for future holidays.”
About: What sets me apart is my personal experience with cats and other pets. I used to raise kittens in the past, so I’m very familiar with caring for young cats and understanding their needs. Currently, I have two male cats of my own, one is 3 years old and the other is 5 years old, so caring for cats is part of my everyday life. I also have a friendly Cocker Spaniel, which means I’m used to looking after different animals and understanding their personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure pets stay comfortable and in their normal routine. I always make sure pets receive plenty of attention and care, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they are away.

“We are very happy to have found Amanda and her family. Since meet & great they have always been super friendly and you could see that they like dogs a lot, which made us very comfortable to leave Paçoca and Lennon with them. We love the organization in asking for the vaccination card and with the form we filled out. During the day we received photos and updates which left us very relieved. We definitely recommend it and we will contact them again if we need it, it is important to have someone to trust to leave our baby’s 🐶”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover offering warm, family-style care in Woodley. We spend lots of time outdoors walking, playing and enjoying fresh air. Our golden retriever, Crumble is playful, gentle and loves making new dog friends. He’s also a proud stick collector and occasional sock thief. I care for dogs as if they were my own, with patience, affection and plenty of attention. I’m home-based and able to offer flexible care during weekdays and selected weekends. We already enjoy daily walks and outdoor time, so your dog will join a warm family routine with regular exercise, garden breaks and company throughout the day. One dog at the time so every dog gets personal care and attention. I provide a safe, loving home environment with a secure garden, regular supervision and lots of comfort. I keep care personal and low-stress, with gentle introductions to Crumble and close attention to each dog’s needs. I’m happy to follow feeding, sleep and walking routines so your dog feels settled and secure. Crumble offers playtime, toy sharing and first-class cuddles.
“Ted had a lovely time with Anna & Bohdi. He was chilled and happy when I collected him. Anna kindly sent me some photos of Teddy while they were together too. This was lovely. I'll be booking again. Thank you Anna 👍🏽”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Ruki had the absolute best time, especially playing with Sid — they got along so well and it was such a relief knowing she had a furry friend to keep her company. This is a truly dog-loving family who made Ruki feel right at home. We got regular updates and it was clear she was being treated like one of their own. Highly recommend”
“Meg was amazing, took care of my two Jack Russels in her lovely home. One of them is a puppy and managed to find a small hole to escape through but everything ended okay. Meg also agreed to stay a few hours longer as I run over with moving. I’d definitely recommend Meg!”
“Karen took great care of Farley, he loved spending time with Pablo and they got on so well together. She sent regular updates and photos, so we felt very comfortable. She also took Farley on a nice long walk - which he loved! We highly recommend Karen”

“This was my first experience using Shilpi's dog care services and I'm very happy with it. Shilpi has a friendly demeanor and knows how to manage various types of dogs. She took great care of my dog and kept me updated with messages and pics regularly. The icing on the cake are her two own dogs that are so friendly and gentle with other dogs! I'm glad to have found Shilpi, and I intend to use her services in the future as and when necessary.”
About: I wfh most days and love the company of a furry friend, your pet will recieve lots of love and attention with me, and you can receive regular updates photos etc if you wish. My partner Stuart is also wfh so double the attention. Please do message me if you have any questions. I wfh pretty much every day so have a fair amount of availability, my partner Stuart also is wfh constantly too so your pet will get double the love! I have a closed back garden, but a small property so sadly no big dogs for daycare as I don’t feel this is fair for them not being able to stretch their legs
“Miley had a great time at Anna’s. We got lots of updates throughout the day and she was very sleepy afterwards. Anna kindly stayed up late for us to collect miley that evening. Will definitely be booking miley in again soon.”
“Charlotte has been fantastic with Bennie since their meet and greet. Her confidence and comfort with him were immediately apparent. Bennie has thoroughly enjoyed his time with Charlotte, her family, and playing with Marley. I would highly recommend her.”
“Jeetinder was absolutely great with Pebbles and I will certainly call on him to care for her again in the future. He has a lovely calm energy that came across from the moment we met him with Pebbles. Jeetinder kept us updated through the day on how she was settling especially at the start when we dropped her off. Pebbles came home happy as well so all good! Thanks for being a brilliant dog sitter!”
About: Hi, my name is Mateusz, and I am a software engineer. I cannot stress how excited I am about the opportunity of taking care of your puppet. I loved dogs since I was a child. Back home, I took care of many different species and dozens of puppies every year 😊. I do not have professional experience, but I did help in shelters as a volunteer. What is more, it is not only me that has a passion for dogs. My fiancé is also a huge dog-lover. She would love to join me in this activity (of course, no extra charge). We have recently bought a house, and we both work from home. We have a fenced garden at home, with vet, groomer, and pet store at our door steps. We frequently visit Dinton Pasture and Thames Valley park which are just 5-10 mins drive away. We will definitely have plenty of time to accompany the doggies and make them feel loved. If you have more than one dog, it is not a problem. I have experience taking out 2/3 dogs on a walk myself, and if my fiancé is with me, the job will be even easier! We're very flexible with our schedule, so please just let me know your preferences, and I am sure we can find some common ground! I am also a big fan of outdoor sports, so if your dog needs exercise, I would love to take him to a park and run with him, both of us will enjoy it 😊. Dogs are my favorite animal by far. My fiancé and I are planning to have many in the future! I can assure you that your puppet will be in great hands! We work from home, and we can offer walks in the morning, during lunch break, or after work. We have a garden so we can offer toilet break any point in time. W will make sure to communicate your doggies health condition, dietary requirements, and personalities before taking over the leash. We are determined to look after only one pet at a time so your doggie will receive our undivided attention. We will follow your instructions but in case of emergency, we have a vet next door that can do drop in visits.
“Pongo has stayed overnight & gone for daycare separately. He always comes home tired & happy which is perfect 💚 I enjoy seeing the photos of his walks & him chilling around. They also catered for him when he was a little restless on his first night. Would certainly recommend 😊”

“We had a great first experience with Tim. He arrived on time, was friendly and professional, and had a very good walk with Mexx. Everything went smoothly, and Mexx seemed happy and comfortable with him. We are very pleased with the service and will definitely be booking more walks with Tim in the future. Highly recommended!”
“We’ve booked Simran a few times now and she’s always been great. Even when we booked last minute, she was super helpful, kept us updated, and made us feel totally at ease. She took our dog out for a full hour and fed him after too, which we really appreciated. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10 years old. I have lived with cats and dogs and love spending my time with them whether that be feeding, stroking or keeping them entertained. I bond well with most pets and treat them like they’re my own, so you can be sure they will be getting the right care and love. I work a 6 on 4 off shift pattern which are two early shifts, two late shifts and two night shifts so I always know what shifts I’m on well in advance. I live in a two bed ground floor flat. The second bedroom is a room for furry visitors. If you use a crate or bed, I am more than happy to put them in there along with any toys or other items they may need.
About: James and Zoe here 😇 We bring several years of hands‑on experience caring for dogs through BorrowMyDoggy, looking after neighbourhood pets, and raising our own dogs. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals—dogs, rabbits, hamsters, rats, fishes and more—and I also worked with animals, giving me a strong understanding of behaviour, welfare, and individual needs. We currently have a 3‑year‑old Shiba Inu and two bunnies, so we’re very familiar with daily routines, personality quirks, and the importance of tailored care. Our Shiba would absolutely love a furry friend to keep her company! We can also offer holiday care for small animals—just send me a message if that’s something you’re looking for too! Either of us work from home on most weekdays, and we’re able to offer weekend boarding as well. We’re home the majority of the time, so your pet will have plenty of company. We’re also quite flexible with drop‑off and pick‑up times to make scheduling easy for you. We live in a quiet cul-de-sac with a fully fenced garden, and there are lovely open fields just behind our house for plenty of walkies and exploring. P.S. The enclosure shown in our cover photo was only used temporarily while our bunnies were bonding — they are never kept caged. Our dog is only allowed into the bunny room under close supervision to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable.

About: About Me: I am a freelance Project Manager who works from home, offering a unique "live-in" experience where your pets receive constant companionship and a consistent routine. Having moved back to Wokingham last year after seven years in the US, I am dedicated to providing a secure, loving presence in your own home, ensuring your pets feel safe in their familiar environment while you're away. As an owner of two dogs—a spirited 7-year-old and a gentle 17-year-old—I have extensive experience balancing high-energy needs with delicate senior care. I am comfortable with specialized senior requirements, including mobility support and strict medication schedules. What I offer as your house sitter: A "Home Always Occupied" Vibe: My WFH status means I am present throughout the day to offer garden breaks, head scratches, and supervision. Tailored Exercise: Whether your dog prefers a gentle "sniffari" around Ashridge Meadows or a long, vigorous hike through a local National Trust, I adapt every walk to their specific fitness level. Respect for Your Home: I maintain a tidy, organized environment and follow all house rules strictly, from locking up every time I leave to ensuring everything is clean for your return. Experience with All Ages: From puppy energy to geriatric care, I provide a patient and attentive environment for every life stage. ***In 2027 I look forward to offering "home away from home" pet sitting from our home in Wokingham*** As a freelance Project Manager working from home, my schedule is highly flexible. I am most available for longer, adventurous walks or hikes during school hours (9:00 AM – 3:00 PM), but I am equally happy to help with late-night bathroom breaks or evening check-ins if you are working late or out for dinner. Because I manage my own hours, I can easily adapt to your pet's specific routine to ensure they never feel rushed or alone. I’ll treat your home with as much love and respect as I do my own. If I'm working from your place, your pets won't have to deal with the "where did they go?" anxiety—I’ll be there to keep them company and keep an eye on things. I’m naturally a very tidy and organized person, so you’ll come home to a happy pet and a house that looks exactly how you left it.
About: I attended the University of Plymouth studying Conservation Biology and qualified from Moreton Morrell College with a Distinction. It has given me experience and knowledge about handling and caring for a range of animals, including rabbits, dogs, cats, reptiles, and others. I am passionate about working with animals which led me to my university degree which has expanded my knowledge further about animal behaviour, welfare, and management. I have been walking dogs where I grew up for 6 years and for neighbours and friends and now I would love to do this professionally and with a range of dogs who would love playing and exercise. I volunteered at the Dog’s Trust in Kenilworth for around 2 years as part of my Duke of Edinburgh Gold award as well as volunteering at the RSPCA for over a year. At the Dog’s Trust and RSPCA I had many roles, from cleaning kennels to food preparation to walking and socialising with the dogs in my job at the Kennels I cleaned kennels, walked the dogs as well as cleaning the cattery, and socialising with the cats. I am patient, shown as I have plenty of experience working with children and customers. I am organised and have good timekeeping so will be reliable to walk and take care of your dog when you need it. Thank you for your consideration. I mostly work weekends and some evenings. I will have plenty of time for your pet for their needs, to play with them, give them breaks and have a fun time while they are with me.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 18 years, including my own dogs, family pets, and my landlord’s dog here in the UK. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I work remotely as a website designer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on pet care throughout the week, including weekends and longer stays when needed. I enjoy being outdoors and go on daily walks, so having a dog with me fits perfectly into my lifestyle. I offer solo dog walks so each dog receives my full attention, care, and companionship. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while following their usual routines and any instructions provided. My remote work allows me to be flexible and available throughout the week for walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting, including weekends and longer stays when needed. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and any instructions from the owner. My priority is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment.
About: I absolutely love dogs, to the point that I'm considering dog caring as a new career option. I have owned a pedigree Westie for the last five years since he was a puppy and took him to puppy training classes locally. I am very friendly and enjoy meeting people as well as getting to know their dogs and often chat to other owners and stroke their dogs when out walking my own. We have lots of great walks nearby and I also love exploring! I have a dog-flap installed so your dog can access a fenced garden as they need throughout the day so that's one less thing for them to worry about. I am relaxed and happy to welcome your dog as if this is their own home from home. We're looking forward to meeting you.
About: I’ve had pets all my life and then… I moved to the UK. Missing the company of furry friends, so let me look after yours when you need it. I’m available Mon, Wed, Fri and Sat evenings after 6:30pm and all day/evening on Sundays. I am fully employed 9-5 and go to uni on Tues/Thurs finishing a Masters degree. It’s nice to have the occasional furry friend over in the evenings, so I can switch my brain off and enjoy some furry cuddles. I’d love to keep your furry friend company, we have a lovely pet-friendly gated park near the building and my home is fully at their disposal because no home is complete without dog hair.
About: I recently returned to the UK from the United States and grew up in Denmark, where I was surrounded by animals from an early age. I was also an avid horse rider, which gave me valuable experience caring for and understanding animals of all sizes. I have worked as a full-time professional pet-sitter in the US and have rescued and rehabilitated cats, helping them regain their confidence and health through patient, compassionate care. As a parent who has raised three children, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to individual needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust that your beloved pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I love walking in nature and enjoy getting to know the unique personality of every pet I care for. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves long walks or a shy cat who needs a calm, gentle approach, I adapt my care to suit each animal’s individual needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, exercise, companionship, and personalized care. My goal is to give both you and your pets peace of mind, knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. I have experience working with pets of all ages and have worked with senior pets needing extra care and attention. I’m currently available all day and I will accommodate your pet’s schedule. I will follow your instructions for pet sitting closely and make sure your pet feels very comfortable in my company. I will always be attentive and get a sense of what your pet needs to make sure all their needs are met at any given time.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have been around animals since childhood. Caring for pets has always been a natural part of my daily life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Over the years, I've looked after dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities for family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience with energetic puppies, senior dogs, and dogs that need a little extra patience and attention. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in caring and dependable hands. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure they get the care and attention they need. I'm available most weekdays and weekends, and I'm happy to work with your pet's usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have had dogs all my life and understand how important it is to leave them with someone you trust. I have a secure fenced garden within the building where dogs can safely play and explore. I follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, and routines provided by owners so your dog feels as comfortable as possible while you're away. If your dog is crate trained, I can accommodate that as well.

“Rachel asked all the right questions to find out exactly what my dog's needs were. My dog settled in at Rachel's home straight away, Rachel gave her plenty of exercise and kept me updated on her progress. After one overnight stay my dog didn't want to leave! Will definitely book again and be confident that my dog's in good hands with Rachel.”
“Vinny had a wonderful time staying with Andrea and Luka. Andrea sent regular updates and photos throughout the day, which gave me real peace of mind while he was with her. By the time I picked him up, he was tuckered out and ready for bed. I would thoroughly recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.”
“Amanda, Trevor, and their family took exceptional care of our two dogs. They were communicative, kind, and very attentive to our pups throughout the two-week stay. Our large dogs each have their quirks, and it's clear that Amanda and Trevor are both very knowledgeable and compassionate in the way they cared for them. Any pup would be lucky to stay with them!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Maggie over the bank holiday! Especially in the hot weather. We a;pre coated the updates - I think Maggie had just as much fun on her own little holiday as we did!”
“We were so pleased to find Lisa and really grateful that she was able to look after Luna at short notice. Luna is a nervous dog but seemed to have a great time. Thank you Lisa.”
“Sarah was amazing and took really good care of our senior dog Kary! We got several updates and photos every day and gave us peace of mind that Kary was not only safe but also had a great time! Of course sweet Holly helped a lot ☺️ We will book again and would definitely recommend”
“Maria and Vincenzo are wonderful sitters. As soon as I contacted them, they set up a time for a meeting. Since then, our dog has grown fond of them and feels safe leaving them with us. They also sent me photos and video letters, which showed that they were doing well. If I need a sitter again, I would like to ask them both. thank you.”
“This is the third time I’ve left Teddy with James, and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better person to look after him. From the moment we drop Teddy off, I know he’s in safe, loving hands. James is incredibly attentive, sends regular updates and photos, and makes sure Teddy gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles. Teddy always comes back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for – it’s obvious he feels completely at home with James. It’s such a relief to know I can travel without stressing, because James treats Teddy like family. I wholeheartedly recommend James to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring to look after their dog. We’ll definitely be back again!”
“Deepa was great! She sent loads of updates and was extremely quick to respond to all my questions. Very reliable and a lovely family who helped make Rolo feel at home. Thank you!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover offering warm, family-style care in Woodley. We spend lots of time outdoors walking, playing and enjoying fresh air. Our golden retriever, Crumble is playful, gentle and loves making new dog friends. He’s also a proud stick collector and occasional sock thief. I care for dogs as if they were my own, with patience, affection and plenty of attention. I’m home-based and able to offer flexible care during weekdays and selected weekends. We already enjoy daily walks and outdoor time, so your dog will join a warm family routine with regular exercise, garden breaks and company throughout the day. One dog at the time so every dog gets personal care and attention. I provide a safe, loving home environment with a secure garden, regular supervision and lots of comfort. I keep care personal and low-stress, with gentle introductions to Crumble and close attention to each dog’s needs. I’m happy to follow feeding, sleep and walking routines so your dog feels settled and secure. Crumble offers playtime, toy sharing and first-class cuddles.
“We left our two labs with Julian for a week and he was excellent as always. Photos everyday, lots of walks and two very happy dogs when we got back. Thanks to him and his family as always, will definitely rebook.”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and that passion is now shared with my two young sons. Our current family includes two dogs—brothers we helped welcome into the world when I fostered their mother—and a once-stray cat. Now five years old, they are gentle, well-socialized, and wonderful companions. With years of experience caring for animals at every life stage, from bottle-feeding newborns to supporting senior pets, I understand the unique needs of each age. Whether it’s administering medication or providing extra comfort, your pet will be in capable and caring hands. Our home is a warm, safe space where pets are treated as family. We’d be honored to care for yours. I'm currently working part-time,so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets. I will take the pet out for walks 2-3 times a day to relieve themselves, with each walk lasting no less than 30 minutes. I will also feed the pet according to the owner's instructions—typically twice a day, unless otherwise specified. I'll take them out for walks 2–3 times a day, each at least 30 minutes, and spend time playing with them to build trust. My neighborhood has a large lawn where pets can run and play—I'm sure they'll love it here.
“Absolutely brilliant! Great communication throughout Alfies stay...lots of photos and texts to put our mind at rest. Met at park before stay and then a home visit week before which was much appreciated.”
“Poppy’s first overnight stay which went well. She was very excited to see me as expected. She had a good night and had cuddles in the morning. She had her walk with Ellie, one of Maura’s dogs which also went well, so all good. 😊”
