“Carolyn looked after our 2.5 y/o Red & White Irish Setter, Kobe. We were really pleased with the care she gave him. He had plenty of long walks and came home happy and well looked after. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Would happily recommend her to others looking for a reliable dog boarder.”
“Rita took such lovely care of our dog Juniper whilst we were on holiday. I knew he was in good hands as she has a real way with animals, and he was loved as part of the family. She provided him lots of outings and healthy treats, and sent us loads of updates, photos and videos while we were away. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.”
“Sian took great care of Milo! She sent me lots of pictures showing how happy he was. He was so comfortable there that when I came to collect he was curled up in a blanket and barely batted an eyelid that I'd returned. 100% recommend 👌”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life! At my family home, we had a golden retriever and retriever/lab cross who I walked and looked after. I now have my own dog Winnie (a super friendly golden retriever) who I have raised and trained since she was a puppy and cat Rupert who we recently adopted. I regularly look after my parents’ dog and my siblings’ dogs too, both overnight and for walks during the day. I work from home so have plenty of time to play with, cuddle and walk your dog. I walk my own dog twice a day so dog walking fits easily into my schedule. I’m free most weekends to look after your dog overnight. I live with my boyfriend who might join us on walks occasionally. I have a fenced garden and my very friendly Winnie to keep your dog company. I also have a lovely cat called Rupert, who will pop in to say hello but stays mostly to himself in the daytime. I don’t have dogs upstairs or on the furniture but they’re free to roam around the downstairs and garden as they please!
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
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.
“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”
“Kotryna looked after my Labrador as if he was her own, he is a nervous dog but quickly was at home and relaxed. He stayed for 12 days and was happy all the time. Kotryna sent lots of photos and info which I liked”
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: 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.
“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.”
“I thoroughly recommend Helen to look after your doggie 🐶 the preparation was great - an introductory walk and house visit which really helped Elsie settle in the next day. Helen was very considerate and thought of every detail and Elsie’s needs. She kept us up to date during her stay with photos and has a very calm, friendly manner. We both loved her and would not hesitate to book in with Helen again.”
“Suzie was well looked after and enjoyed the company of other dogs. Matilde was very helpful in terms of accommodating timings for drop off and pick up. She kept me up to date with pictures. Nice garden for adventures!”
“Ziggy had a wonderful time with Lynne.He was looked after like a king with lots of playtime and attention. We would have no hesitation in recommending Lynne and her husband who are such lovely people and Ziggy can't wait to go back. See you soon.”
“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!”
“Alexis has been an excellent dog sitter. Very reliable and caring, and he kept me updated throughout with pictures and regular messages so I always knew how things were going. My dog was clearly well looked after, and I felt completely at ease.”
“Katie and Jamie provided great care for our two dogs while we were away. Katie sent photos via WhatsApp so we could see how they were doing and we could see they were very happy and content. When we collected our dogs it was obvious the dogs had formed a good bond with Katie and Jamie. Katie and Jamie obviously love dogs and I would recommend them to anyone who want to know there pets are being very well looked after.”

“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.”

About: I’ve looked after cats for friends and family for over 3 years, and I’ve been fostering cats through Cats Protection’s Lifeline service for a year. I’m experienced in looking after kittens, young cats and senior cats and because of fostering, I’ve adapted to many different breeds and temperaments.
“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.”
“How pleasing it was to discover what a wonderful service this is. Sian was more than we ever dreamed as a friend to our old girl Magsy. She afforded such peace of mind, checked in regularly, took photos of the happy dog, and ensured that I could rest assured. Would be more than happy to have her help again with future travel-plans.”
“Chelsey did a great job of looking after Fluff. We came home to a very calm and happy cat. Thank you Chelsey! No hesitation in recommending you or booking you in future.”
About: I've never owned a cat, but almost all my friends have at least one. I'm happy to provide love, care and entertainment. I've looked after cats before and love nothing more than a good cat cuddle.
“Ilona was really lovely, she got on with Marley from the first visit and put us both very much at ease. Ilona not only listened to my many strange requests for Marley's care but followed through on them all - even honouring the booking despite being poorly! She sent amazing updates and photos, neither Marley nor I could have asked for more! 😺”
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.
“Elise has been amazing with our dog Mila! She’s super reliable, really caring, and Mila absolutely loves her. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in great hands, couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Annabelle did a fantastic job of looking after our cats while we were away. She kept us updated after every visit and we returned home to two very content kitties. Thanks Annabelle :)”

“We had such a great experience today! She really saved the day after I forgot to book daycare for our Harlow. From the start, she was so friendly, accommodating, and easy to communicate with. Harlow had the best time and came home so happy after making two new friends, especially her super cute dog, Winnie! It was clear he was well looked after and had lots of fun. She was incredibly available, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you so much!”
“A huge thank you to Kat. The meet and greet and her flexibility were greatly appreciated! Maisie is usually quite qnxious, but she took to Kat and her children, who are equally chilled and gentle straight away. I would highly recommend!”
“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!”
About: I previously shared my life with a fox terrier from a well-known breeder, who passed away in 2016. I still miss him, and while I don’t see myself getting another dog of my own, I very much miss the companionship of dogs and the pleasure of walking with them. I’m confident and comfortable around dogs. My handling style is calm, assertive, and kind, and I have a good understanding of canine behaviour. When my dog was a puppy, I undertook six months of structured training with a highly reputable dog trainer in Southend. I also genuinely enjoy training through play and positive engagement. I have hands-on experience with basic dog grooming, including brushing, coat care, nail trimming, and general hygiene, and I’m comfortable handling dogs during grooming in a calm and reassuring way.

“Kristyna looked after our Luna for an afternoon in her home. As we’re moving to the area soon, we wanted to try out a local sitter with plans to make it a regular arrangement. It didn’t take long to find the right person— Kristyna is wonderful and amazing. Throughout Luna’s stay, we received updates with pictures and videos, which reassured us that Luna was happy, well-cared for, and playing with little Frank. Kristyna warmly welcomed us into her home, putting us at ease right away. We will definitely book with her again in the future. Thank you, Kristyna!”
“Liv was amazing. She looked after our 15 week old puppy chilli for a weekend. Liv was so flexible and accommodating and showed so much genuine care and concern for chilli. We felt so comfortable leaving him and he’s come back such a happy puppy She kept us updated regularly with photos and videos of him. Liv is amazing with dogs and we would absolutely recommend her services and will be using her again!”
“Really happy with the services provided. Taro came back happy and I really felt at ease to leave him with Clemency and her partner. They were so nice to also take him to his vets visit. Really recommend. Thanks 🤗”

About: Over the past 8 years, my journey as a dog sitter has been both a beloved hobby and a professional pursuit. I’ve cared for a diverse range of breeds, from small chihuahuas to large retrievers, each with their own personalities and needs. This has helped me develop a keen understanding of canine behavior, health, and safety. Balancing fun and discipline, I create engaging environments for dogs to play, learn, and relax.

As a dedicated dog sitter, I seamlessly balance working from home with providing top-notch care for dogs. This flexibility allows me to offer a loving and attentive environment, ensuring that each dog feels at home while in my care. Whether it’s a quick walk or a day of play, I’m always ready With a Level 3 qualification in health and safety, I bring an extra layer of professionalism and precaution to my dog-sitting services.

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.

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.

Indoors, there is ample space for comfortable sleeping areas and quiet rest, allowing your dog to feel calm and cared for.

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.
“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: 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
“A massive thank you to the lovely Jane for walking our Golden Retriever whilst we were away. Fab photos and updates which was so reassuring and to see her so happy with Jane on her walks. Highly recommend and will definitely be using Jane again.”
“I was very grateful to be able to have Claire drop in to take Bingo out this afternoon. She sent me some cute pics of him having a great time on the beach. Claire met Bingo prior to today and they got on really well so I was happy for her to let herself in to our home while we were out. She also made our two shy cats feel comfortable enough to come out for their dinner. Thanks Claire x”
“Georgina was great. Reliable and on time. She came to visit Burt before the booking to meet him and see his routine. He looks like he had the best time on his walk, we will definitely be booking again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 7 years, starting with my own dog, Bailey. I’ve regularly looked after him on my own whenever my family has been away, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining routines. I personally trained Bailey, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to positively encourage good behaviour. I’ve also cared for dogs belonging to family members, each with different personalities and needs. More recently, I’ve helped my nan’s dog adjust after losing their sight. This experience has taught me how to care for dogs that need extra support, reassurance, and a calm, understanding approach. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I work four days a week from 9:00 am to 5:30 pm, but I’m available all day on my three days off and in the evenings every day. I have a flexible schedule and will always do my best to accommodate your dog’s needs, whether that’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care Your dogs safety and happiness are my top priorities, I have a fenced garden and a dog safe home. My dog Bailey is friendly and will keep your dog company

Through Rover, I’m excited to provide dependable, compassionate care for both dogs and cats. I'm self-employed and I manage my own diary so can be fully flexible with most booking requests.

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.

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 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.
About: Read books about dog behaviour and what they think, as well had first aid course. I love animals, animals loves me. Had lots of different animals in the past, now I do have one small and amazing dog. Im good at training them too. I work 5h a day from office (till 1:30pm) , other times Im free to spend lots of time with animals. Weekends Im always free too. I have fenced garden, live by the sea, love walking a lot and play with dogs. Flexible and treat dogs like they deserve for all the love they give.
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.
“Emily has been walking our dog Melin regularly for the last 3 weeks. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would, she sends regular updates, is reliable and has always been available for last minute requests when we are stuck. Thanks so much Emily x”

Looking for cat clients mostly. I can read cats very well. I have two indoor cats myself so am very conscious of ensuring no escapees through open doors and am incredibly vigilant with windows, doors, etc. I'll love your cats as I do my own. I'll offer play and cuddles where desired, and also know when to give your kitties space.
About: I can offer dog walking for dogs in the Worthing area. I absolutely love dog walking and it’s a treat for me as well as your dog!

“Carolyn looked after our 2.5 y/o Red & White Irish Setter, Kobe. We were really pleased with the care she gave him. He had plenty of long walks and came home happy and well looked after. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Would happily recommend her to others looking for a reliable dog boarder.”
“Rita took such lovely care of our dog Juniper whilst we were on holiday. I knew he was in good hands as she has a real way with animals, and he was loved as part of the family. She provided him lots of outings and healthy treats, and sent us loads of updates, photos and videos while we were away. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life! At my family home, we had a golden retriever and retriever/lab cross who I walked and looked after. I now have my own dog Winnie (a super friendly golden retriever) who I have raised and trained since she was a puppy and cat Rupert who we recently adopted. I regularly look after my parents’ dog and my siblings’ dogs too, both overnight and for walks during the day. I work from home so have plenty of time to play with, cuddle and walk your dog. I walk my own dog twice a day so dog walking fits easily into my schedule. I’m free most weekends to look after your dog overnight. I live with my boyfriend who might join us on walks occasionally. I have a fenced garden and my very friendly Winnie to keep your dog company. I also have a lovely cat called Rupert, who will pop in to say hello but stays mostly to himself in the daytime. I don’t have dogs upstairs or on the furniture but they’re free to roam around the downstairs and garden as they please!
“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”
“Kotryna looked after my Labrador as if he was her own, he is a nervous dog but quickly was at home and relaxed. He stayed for 12 days and was happy all the time. Kotryna sent lots of photos and info which I liked”

“I thoroughly recommend Helen to look after your doggie 🐶 the preparation was great - an introductory walk and house visit which really helped Elsie settle in the next day. Helen was very considerate and thought of every detail and Elsie’s needs. She kept us up to date during her stay with photos and has a very calm, friendly manner. We both loved her and would not hesitate to book in with Helen again.”
“Suzie was well looked after and enjoyed the company of other dogs. Matilde was very helpful in terms of accommodating timings for drop off and pick up. She kept me up to date with pictures. Nice garden for adventures!”

“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!”
“Katie and Jamie provided great care for our two dogs while we were away. Katie sent photos via WhatsApp so we could see how they were doing and we could see they were very happy and content. When we collected our dogs it was obvious the dogs had formed a good bond with Katie and Jamie. Katie and Jamie obviously love dogs and I would recommend them to anyone who want to know there pets are being very well looked after.”
“Felt really confident to leave Milo with Clemency and Matt. Quick responses to messages and photos/videos of walks while I was away. Milo was very well looked after and enjoyed his holiday home! Would definitely recommend.”
“Reggie had a fabulous time boarding for two nights with Elise. She understood and responded to him and gave him plenty of activity as well as calm time and cuddles. He was a very happy dog! 🐶”
“Lorraine was absolutely fantastic with Frazzle. He can be shy and nervous at first but not with Lorraine! She really knows what she’s doing and I felt so happy and confident leaving Frazzle in her care. Lorraine took time to read Frazzles bio and understand his needs and immediately made me feel comfortable that Frazzle would be very well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Louise was amazing! Would absolutely use again and highly recommend. Lots of updates of Ralph looking very happy with them. Louise was very accommodating and a lovely person, we were able to enjoy our break without worrying about the dog at all.”
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.

Your dog will be treated like part of the family in a safe, loving home environment.

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.
