“Cannot praise Rita enough! Having been on Rover ourselves as sitters before getting Bubble we had high standards coming into the booking but Rita absolutely smashed it out the park! Regular photo and video updates and Bubble came back happy and clearly has had a wonderful time! Have already rebooked!”
“Ruby loved her stay with Carolyn and we cannot thank her enough for the care and time she has given to looking after her- especially with building her confidence around children and with her emotional regulation as a 1 year old pup. We trust Carolyn fully with looking after Ruby whilst we are away, and we know she will be bouncing (but calmly!) to stay with her again ☺️ thank you!”
“Suki was very happy staying with Sian, we felt like she was in great hands. We had daily updates and photos and Sian was really communicative at every stage of the process. We would be very happy to have Sian look after Suki again in the future.”
About: Hey, I'm Jackie. I've loved and been surrounded by dogs most of my life. :) Growing up, my family bred dachshunds. From a young age, I pet-sat and dog-walked for my neighbour's pets. My first official job was in a mall pet shop, bathing dogs and cleaning cages. In college, I worked at a doggy daycare that looked after dogs of all sizes and breeds. I'm now the proud mom to two small rescue dogs (Maggie & Mango). I also have experience working with cats, small rodents, birds and exotic animals (I've had two pet hedgehogs and have looked after bearded dragons). I'm more than happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to get to know you and your pet before booking. I know how important it is to find the perfect person to take care of your best friend, and I would love to be that person! :) As a freelance voiceover artist, I have a flexible schedule. I'm available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can easily fit your pet care into my routine and will do my best to accommodate your needs. Currently based in Worthing. I am more than happy to care for your pet in your home and will follow any rules or guidelines you have (ie dogs not allowed in bed or on the sofa). My husband and I can also look after pets in our home. We're both freelancers, so home at all hours. We have a fully enclosed garden, and we also live near lots of lovely dog parks. Please note that we have two rescue dogs of our own. Maggie loves to play with new visitors, but Mango does not care to socialise. All dogs will have constant supervision.
“Bailey had a lovely time with Kotryna and her family. He was so relaxed and enjoyed lots of love. We were sent lots of picture updates 🙂 he can't wait to stay again soon! Thank you so much”
“Lynn and Chris were fantastic, Bella clearly felt very comfortable with them during her stay. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, alongside the great communication.”
“I cant thank Helen enough for looking after Alfie. Alfie adores Helen and runs up to Helens front door, he cant wait to see Helen. I think he is sometimes a bit dissapointed when we collect him. Helen has been looking after Alfie for just over a year now, and although Alfie is a rescue dog, and has some unusual quirks, Helen shows infinate patience and kindness, with Alfie. I never have any concerns when it comes to leaving Alfie with Helen. I dont know what we would do without Helen. Thanks so much.”
“Having Buddy stay with Matilde was such a positive experience. The booking was really last minute and Buddy had recently been in season so couldn’t go off the lead. Matilde was so accommodating and helpful buddy had a great time and came back relaxed and in her usual routine. Thank you!”
About: I’ve always been around Pets my whole life from having pets in my household and having many family member’s and friends with pets and I just can’t get enough of them. I work on a 4 on 4 off rotation, which gives me plenty of time to enjoy long walks across the downs on my days off. Perfect for tiring out energetic pups! That said, I know not every dog needs or loves a long walk so I’m flexible, my late dog rarely lasted more than 10 minutes, bless her. I care for pets as if they’re my own, always making sure they feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their environment. I follow any routine you provide and prioritize their well-being, whether that’s playtime, rest, or gentle care for nervous pets. Clean, secure spaces and plenty of affection are always guaranteed
“Absolutely amazing, last minute booking made easy with Rita. Winnie absolutely loved her stay and we werent worried about her at all with the photos we were sent daily! Would absolutely book again!”
“Absolutely incredible, both our boys loved staying with Chris, he is so attentive and gave us updates every day, we couldn’t recommend him enough - Daddy dog owner. Chris soon picked up that I’m as neurotic and sensitive as our 2 Dachshunds- mummy dog owner. That also said, one of our boys is a very precious, but traumatised, rescue, and he can be hard work. Chris sent us pictures and short videos every day, which was massively reassuring to me, as well as an update in respect of how they were doing. How lovely is that?!! Chris was willing to hear about and understand our boy’s needs and difficulties; we took careful and gentle steps to introduce and familiarise, which Chris was more than happy to accommodate. Long story short, we have come home from holiday to two very happy, extremely well cared for doggies.”
About: Hi! I may be new to dog sitting, but I’ve had my hands full for the past two years with my lovable Labrador. Being a dog mum has taught me responsibility, patience, and just how much love and attention dogs need to thrive. I can’t imagine life without dogs now, and I’d love to give your pup the same care, attention, and belly rubs I give my own. Your dog will be treated like part of the family in a safe, loving home environment. I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of cuddles, so they feel comfortable and settled while you're away. For your peace of mind, I am fully insured for pet sitting and home boarding. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will care for them as if they were my own. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout their stay, so you can relax knowing they're happy, safe, and well looked after. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring new smells, or simply curling up on the sofa for a nap, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and one-to-one care. I look forward to welcoming your furry family member into my home and giving them a fun, safe, and happy stay! 🐾❤️ I work part-time, so I have good flexibility for dog care. Thursdays and Fridays work best for me, with the occasional weekend available. As a teacher, I’m often free during school holidays, which means lots of time for overnight stays and doggy day care. Just be sure to book well in advance! I provide a safe and trusted home environment with a securely gated back garden for supervised outdoor time. My friendly Labrador is well-socialized and enjoys the company of other dogs. Indoors, there is ample space for comfortable sleeping areas and quiet rest, allowing your dog to feel calm and cared for.
“Excellent personal service from Leah. From the moment we met I knew Holly was in good hands. Leah sent me photos to reassure Holly was doing ok and she even dropped her home for me. Thank u”
About: Hello, I’m a big lover of dogs and their individual personalities. We had a family Labrador called Baileys who loved beach walks. I’ve co-parented a Pug called Darcie, who became disabled (her back legs buckled) and I took her for walks in a doggy rucksack, which she loved! Also, before they moved to Scotland, I was an auntie to my friend’s French Bulldog called Travis, who’s a rescue. I currently look after a French Bulldog called Tina - we met and bonded through ‘Borrow My Doggy’. Therefore, I have experience with a range of dogs, including dogs with disabilities as well as nervous, reactive dogs. Being a lover of the outdoors and nature, I enjoy taking dogs out for walks and on little adventures. I believe in giving all dogs the best quality of life and would love the opportunity to be a part of their doggy journey. I would like a dog of my own; however, due to socialising and travelling often my lifestyle won’t allow it. I work in student engagement at a local university and work from home a lot, so am open to a dog keeping me company at my ground floor flat where I live alone and have a front garden. I also have spare time some evenings and weekends, and am open to looking after dogs in owners’ homes overnight and for holidays. I’m happy to answer any questions you have, and look forward to hearing from you and your fur baby. I work from home 4 days a week (days vary), and can take your fur baby to the toilet when needed during this time, and for a walk at lunch and/or after work. At weekends I like to get out in nature and would be happy to take them with me to enjoy the outdoors. I have an unfenced front garden (where I would keep your fluffy one on a lead if required, or would supervise them if they can be off-lead). I live in 2 bedroom flat where I live alone, so lots of space for your fluffy one to be free with me.
About: RSPCA Mount Noddy volunteer walker Hearing dogs for deaf people assisting Dogs in the family always Help with raising puppies I’m reliable, patient, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors, so whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just having some company and affection, I’d be happy to help. I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine as I’m already active, organised, and enjoy spending time outdoors. I structure my days so I have flexibility for walks, drop-ins, or pet visits, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I enjoy being outside and staying active, so incorporating dog walking or pet care feels like a natural part of my lifestyle rather than a chore. I also have experience volunteering at Mount Noddy RSPCA, where I regularly helped walk and care for multiple dogs. This taught me how to manage time effectively and be reliable with scheduled commitments, even when handling different dogs with varying needs. Overall, I make sure I only commit to pet care when I can give each dog proper attention, care, and consistency. I’m organised, dependable, and always prioritise the wellbeing of the animals I look after. I always care for pets with the same attention and responsibility as if they were my own. When looking after a dog in the owner’s home or taking them out for walks, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure the dog feels comfortable and secure, especially in a familiar environment, and I take time to build trust and understand their personality. I have experience handling a variety of dogs through volunteering at Mount Noddy RSPCA, where I regularly walked multiple dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. This has taught me how to stay calm, alert, and in control in different situations, whether a dog is energetic, nervous, or reactive. Safety is always my top priority. I ensure leads, harnesses, and gates are secure, and I’m careful during walks to avoid unsafe situations. I also pay attention to the dog’s behaviour and wellbeing throughout, making sure they are happy, hydrated, and not overexerted. Because I’ve grown up around dogs and have supported puppy care through family volunteering with Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, I’m also confident helping with basic training reinforcement, socialisation, and gentle handling of puppies. Overall, I aim to provide a calm, reliable, and caring presence so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.

“Tim did an amazing job of looking after Milo while I was away for a few days. He provided updates and pictures and I felt happy that Milo was in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Tim again.”
“Georgina was very easy to communicate with, followed all our requests, and looked after our cats very well. We received lots of photos of the cats playing while we were away, which was very reassuring! Very happy overall.”
“Sian was really professional, friendly and flexible. She visited our senior dog Lola whilst we were out for the day. She kept her company, gave her some food and went by Lola’s cues when she seemed less than impressed about going out for a walk! Will deffo work with Sian again. Highly recommend! X”

About: I have owned cats in the past and have looked after friends' cats too. I know every cat is different — some want quiet independence, others want play and attention — so I take the time to figure out whatever your cat needs and adjust to it. You'll get honest, detailed updates and photos every visit for real peace of mind while you're away. I will sometimes pet sit with my animal-loving 10 Year old daughter so will need sits that allow this. She is very responsible and sensible and would help out with basic jobs such as feeding and cuddles.
About: We are an active professional couple in our 60’s who have retired early. Before we retired I was a management accountant & my partner Chris was a Design Engineer. Our interests include Kayaking, Cycling, Walking & Photography to name a few along with DIY & Gardening. We also love nature & animals & have owned several dogs, cats & other animals over the years. We have been looking after peoples homes, pets and other animals now for over 8 years with over 100 5 star reviews and have loved every minute of it. Our house sits have ranged from looking after a smallholding with alpaca's, rare breed goats, sheep, chickens and dogs, to just a single cat. The properties we have maintained have ranged from 7 bedroom villas in France with pools and landscaped gardens to 2 bedroom bungalows in Sussex. Now we can offer this service from our own home and have looked after several dogs in our home for friends and past house sitters. We are very practical and "Hands on" so can deal with most eventualities. We have a lot of experience in looking after & caring for dogs cats & other animals having owned several ourselves over the years as well as looking after other peoples. We also have experience of having our own house looked after by house sitters so understand what is like to go away & entrust your home and especially your beloved pets to someone else. We are honest & very respectful of other people’s houses & property and privacy. Lastly but by no means the least is that we absolutely love animals so if we have to look after yours you can be assured they will be in very good hands & probably spoiled rotten. Chris does not work and I only work casually as an invigilator so your pets would get our undivided attention. We are keen walkers so you can rest assured your dog would get the exercise they require. We have a very safe and secure garden in a quiet area of Worthing. There will be no other pets in the property. We can accommodate crated or uncrated animals and can have animals in the bedroom although not on the bed.
“This was my first time using a pet sitter ever, and Luke was an absolute legend. He kept me informed, was attentive and I felt like I had left Cleo in safe hands, even before I had gone on holiday. Would highly recommend Luke to anyone.”

About: I have two cats of my own, Elton & Elvis, who are my entire world. I've worked as a pet nutritionist for 5 years now and am well versed in pet care with a special interest in cats. I work locally, and am considered a "cat expert" within the pet shop I work in!
About: Owning my third dog now I am experienced with raising and training puppies as well as taking care of any dietary restrictions. I work from home with a big garden, so I am able to let the doggies out any time they want. I have my own residential dog - Frank, a very friendly Boston Terrier, so I can only look after friendly dogs with no behavioural issues towards other dogs. Working from home allows me to give the dogs my full attention. Having one or two more dogs at home makes no difference to my daily schedule, and I LOVE to have more tails wagging around. I have previously looked after a number of friends and family dogs. We have a big, fully fenced garden with no floral threats and your dog can enjoy all day access to the garden.
“We highly recommend Ilona. She is a cat whisperer! Our cat can be hissy at strangers, but he liked her from the beginning. When he was naughty, she knew how to deal with him. Ilona is also dependable and sent us great pictures of our cat being so happy, along with detail visiting reports. That really helped us to relax and enjoy our holiday.”
About: Since having my own little moggy- Mr Tux 4yrs, I understand the worry and stress associated with ensuring all is well when away from home. As we know cats prefer to stay at home in familiar territory as opposed to a cattery. Of course they will miss you but they will feel safe at home with their normal routine. I have always loved cats and been surrounded by them since I was young. I have experience caring for kittens and senior cats, to include playing, caressing, grooming, feeding and litter tray cleaning.

“Katalina was so brilliant with Bennett, despite the fact he still has a lot of puppy energy! You can tell she loves dogs and has a natural affinity with them. We would definitely use her again, without hesitation.”
“Ron had such a great time today! I was really nervous leaving him for the first time, but Helen was amazing. She kept me updated throughout the day, which made me feel completely relaxed knowing Ron was happy and settled. I couldn’t recommend her more — we have already booked again!”

“Sian was so friendly and was a joy to speak to, despite me being brand new to the area and in need of a dog walker last minute, she was able to come pick/drop of Kobe twice in one day for his walks. Kobe is a very emotional pup but I could see he was so happy to be with Sian and did his little happy tail walks when he was picked up and dropped off. I know for a fact he had a great time with Sian because he was absolutely knackered which was a massive help when you’re trying to unpack! I’ll 100% be booking again, thank you so much again!”
About: My partner and I have grown up with dogs. We have dog sat friends and family dogs for years now. We just love having dogs around! I love walking and it just feels better when we you’re walking with a little companion. Happy to take two dogs if they’re from the same house. One of us or both of us work from home Monday to Friday. We love a morning, lunchtime and evening walk, which is perfect for dog walks. We have a walled garden, keeping them safe. We have a relaxed home environment. They are allowed to make themselves comfortable anywhere in the house
“Georgia was a massive help with Bailey and took her out a walk quite last minute. Georgia was easy to contact and took an interest in Bailey straight away with her behaviours and got to know her before then taking her out which put me at ease right away. Can’t thank her enough ☺️”
“David and Melanie walked our two Lakeland Terriers for a week whilst we were away and honestly could not be happier with the outcome. David communicated extremely well during our absence sending pics and videos during the walks. David & Mel both kindly came over for a meet & greet with us all before we booked and took time to get to know the dogs. As the weather was quite warm it was kind of David to take water with him for the dogs too. It was clear to see on the videos how happy the dogs were in their company too 🥰 would not hesitate to book David again and to recommend to our dog owning friends in the area too. Thank you - we really appreciate the care and attention you gave. Best wishes. Mike”
About: Hey, I'm Jackie. I've loved and been surrounded by dogs most of my life. :) Growing up, my family bred dachshunds. From a young age, I pet-sat and dog-walked for my neighbour's pets. My first official job was in a mall pet shop, bathing dogs and cleaning cages. In college, I worked at a doggy daycare that looked after dogs of all sizes and breeds. I'm now the proud mom to two small rescue dogs (Maggie & Mango). I also have experience working with cats, small rodents, birds and exotic animals (I've had two pet hedgehogs and have looked after bearded dragons). I'm more than happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to get to know you and your pet before booking. I know how important it is to find the perfect person to take care of your best friend, and I would love to be that person! :) As a freelance voiceover artist, I have a flexible schedule. I'm available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can easily fit your pet care into my routine and will do my best to accommodate your needs. Currently based in Worthing. I am more than happy to care for your pet in your home and will follow any rules or guidelines you have (ie dogs not allowed in bed or on the sofa). My husband and I can also look after pets in our home. We're both freelancers, so home at all hours. We have a fully enclosed garden, and we also live near lots of lovely dog parks. Please note that we have two rescue dogs of our own. Maggie loves to play with new visitors, but Mango does not care to socialise. All dogs will have constant supervision.
About: I've cared for my own pets for 5 years, so I understand the little things that make pets feel comfortable and safe — routines, favorite spots and reading their moods. I send detailed updates and photos throughout every visit, so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy, safe, and loved. *I will often be pet sitting with my 10 year old animal-loving daughter. She is very responsible and sensible with animals and would help to feed, care for them as needed. I'm off work for the summer, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to pet care. Rather than just relaxing, I wanted to spend this time doing something meaningful — helping others and giving their pets the attention and company they deserve while owners are away. That means I can be flexible with visit times and give each pet unpaid attention, not squeeze it in between other commitments. Since I care for pets in the your own home, I make sure every visit covers all your pet's needs — fresh food and water, litter box or waste cleanup, exercise or playtime and plenty of attention. I also take care of basic house chores while you're away, like bringing in post, and basic security such as locking doors and making sure everything's secure before I leave. If anything comes up or seems off, I'll always communicate with you directly and promptly, so you're never left in the dark.
About: RSPCA Mount Noddy volunteer walker Hearing dogs for deaf people assisting Dogs in the family always Help with raising puppies I’m reliable, patient, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors, so whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just having some company and affection, I’d be happy to help. I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine as I’m already active, organised, and enjoy spending time outdoors. I structure my days so I have flexibility for walks, drop-ins, or pet visits, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I enjoy being outside and staying active, so incorporating dog walking or pet care feels like a natural part of my lifestyle rather than a chore. I also have experience volunteering at Mount Noddy RSPCA, where I regularly helped walk and care for multiple dogs. This taught me how to manage time effectively and be reliable with scheduled commitments, even when handling different dogs with varying needs. Overall, I make sure I only commit to pet care when I can give each dog proper attention, care, and consistency. I’m organised, dependable, and always prioritise the wellbeing of the animals I look after. I always care for pets with the same attention and responsibility as if they were my own. When looking after a dog in the owner’s home or taking them out for walks, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure the dog feels comfortable and secure, especially in a familiar environment, and I take time to build trust and understand their personality. I have experience handling a variety of dogs through volunteering at Mount Noddy RSPCA, where I regularly walked multiple dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. This has taught me how to stay calm, alert, and in control in different situations, whether a dog is energetic, nervous, or reactive. Safety is always my top priority. I ensure leads, harnesses, and gates are secure, and I’m careful during walks to avoid unsafe situations. I also pay attention to the dog’s behaviour and wellbeing throughout, making sure they are happy, hydrated, and not overexerted. Because I’ve grown up around dogs and have supported puppy care through family volunteering with Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, I’m also confident helping with basic training reinforcement, socialisation, and gentle handling of puppies. Overall, I aim to provide a calm, reliable, and caring presence so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, varying in both size and temperament. My desire for my future career is to work with animals as a Veterinary Physiotherapist. Therefore, I have had many types of work experience with a diverse range of animals. I have had experience in a veterinary practice so I am confident when handling, walking, feeding etc. Other experience I have is house sitting overnight for friends so I am very trustworthy and can ensure the safety of your pet. Neighbours have also asked me to feed their cats whilst away with regular check ins throughout the day. I am currently a 1st year uni student. I am studying Veterinary Physiotherapy at Writtle. My weekends are completely free. However, hours vary during the week. I am also available during holidays but will be based in Worthing at this time. I am more than happy to listen to your wants and needs as well as if your pet has any special requirements that need tending to. I want to give them a calm and safe space in your home with lots of cuddles, time for play and regular toilet breaks.
“Jane is so very good with Trigger and he loves going for walks with her. She has improved Trigger's walks too, by suggesting a different head collar than the one I had been using, which he tolerates much better. I'm so glad Trigger and I found Jane.”
About: I'm Hannah, Ive owned dogs my whole life, I've had cats too previously. I have worked with dogs for years at a well known Trust when I lived in Cornwall and have volunteered at Brent lodge and Climping dog sanctuary since living in west Sussex. My passion is caring for animals and I thrive off of seeing dogs happy and cared for. My own previous dog (Nala) was a medical needs dog so I have my dog first aid training and medication administration. I am experienced in looking after all sizes of dogs and my speciality is caring for rescues. I currently work part time, so I'm home most days all day. (Except for Wednesdays) I adore dogs and can do daycare, boarding overnight, walks or drop ins. I will mark on my calendar the days I am available so your pooch is not left unattended at any time. I have a very dog friendly pet dog, who absolutely loves company, I often look after my nabours dog and the playdates are so fun. There is a crate if this is something you are using as a safe space too, however your dog will be allowed on all of the furniture in the home anyway. I can provide exercise and company all day long so if your dog dislikes being left alone then I'm here for you. My dog also attends daycare so if you'd prefer he can be out for the day.
“We were a little worried how our puppy, Kali, would be as she's never been away from us since we got her and she is a very bouncy dog which can be alot! We had no need to worry. Elise was amazing with her and treated her like she was her own pup. I will be booking with Elise again and will happily recommend her to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much Elise, Kali misses you loads 🐶🩷”
About: I already dog sit for my family’s dogs and have realised it’s something I genuinely enjoy doing. I regularly look after a rescue dog, a sausage dog, and a Labrador—sometimes all three at the same time—so I’m no stranger to busy households and dogs with different personalities and needs. Caring for multiple dogs has given me confidence in handling a variety of breeds, temperaments, and routines. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and cared for, I take the responsibility seriously. I’ve also done babysitting in the past, which has helped me develop professionalism, reliability, and respect when working in other people’s homes. I understand the importance of trust and will always treat your pets and home with care. I’m currently in between jobs, so from now until the end of the summer holidays I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your dog. This means I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, daycare, or overnight stays. I can also help on weekends if needed. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while they’re in my care. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and any specific needs they may have so they feel secure and well cared for. I’m confident handling dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments, and I always follow owners’ instructions closely. Whether in your home or out on walks, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own family’s dogs, while also respecting your home and keeping you updated for peace of mind.

“Ruby loved her stay with Carolyn and we cannot thank her enough for the care and time she has given to looking after her- especially with building her confidence around children and with her emotional regulation as a 1 year old pup. We trust Carolyn fully with looking after Ruby whilst we are away, and we know she will be bouncing (but calmly!) to stay with her again ☺️ thank you!”
“Bailey had a lovely time with Kotryna and her family. He was so relaxed and enjoyed lots of love. We were sent lots of picture updates 🙂 he can't wait to stay again soon! Thank you so much”
“Lynn and Chris were fantastic, Bella clearly felt very comfortable with them during her stay. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, alongside the great communication.”
“I cant thank Helen enough for looking after Alfie. Alfie adores Helen and runs up to Helens front door, he cant wait to see Helen. I think he is sometimes a bit dissapointed when we collect him. Helen has been looking after Alfie for just over a year now, and although Alfie is a rescue dog, and has some unusual quirks, Helen shows infinate patience and kindness, with Alfie. I never have any concerns when it comes to leaving Alfie with Helen. I dont know what we would do without Helen. Thanks so much.”
“Having Buddy stay with Matilde was such a positive experience. The booking was really last minute and Buddy had recently been in season so couldn’t go off the lead. Matilde was so accommodating and helpful buddy had a great time and came back relaxed and in her usual routine. Thank you!”
“Absolutely amazing, last minute booking made easy with Rita. Winnie absolutely loved her stay and we werent worried about her at all with the photos we were sent daily! Would absolutely book again!”
About: Hi! I may be new to dog sitting, but I’ve had my hands full for the past two years with my lovable Labrador. Being a dog mum has taught me responsibility, patience, and just how much love and attention dogs need to thrive. I can’t imagine life without dogs now, and I’d love to give your pup the same care, attention, and belly rubs I give my own. Your dog will be treated like part of the family in a safe, loving home environment. I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of cuddles, so they feel comfortable and settled while you're away. For your peace of mind, I am fully insured for pet sitting and home boarding. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will care for them as if they were my own. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout their stay, so you can relax knowing they're happy, safe, and well looked after. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring new smells, or simply curling up on the sofa for a nap, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and one-to-one care. I look forward to welcoming your furry family member into my home and giving them a fun, safe, and happy stay! 🐾❤️ I work part-time, so I have good flexibility for dog care. Thursdays and Fridays work best for me, with the occasional weekend available. As a teacher, I’m often free during school holidays, which means lots of time for overnight stays and doggy day care. Just be sure to book well in advance! I provide a safe and trusted home environment with a securely gated back garden for supervised outdoor time. My friendly Labrador is well-socialized and enjoys the company of other dogs. Indoors, there is ample space for comfortable sleeping areas and quiet rest, allowing your dog to feel calm and cared for.

“I can not recommend Lynne and her husband Lee enough. We went for a visit pre booking and found them to be friendly and relaxed and was immediately put at ease. Dudley, our dog, was happy with them and when we arrived to drop him for his holiday, jumped out of the car and went straight to their door. We had a relaxed holiday knowing we didn’t have to worry about him and that he was happy in their company and relaxed. We got regular photo updates. We were extremely grateful for their flexibility when our flight got delayed. Nothing was too much trouble and he really was well looked after. Not sure Dudley even wanted to come home with us as he misses all the attention. Can’t Thank you enough Lynne - Until the next time.”
“Our dogs have had the best week with Kathy! Regular updates and wonderful photos were sent. We know they have enjoyed themselves as they've come back totally disinterested in us!”
