“3rd time our Labrador has stayed with Kotryna and again she looks after him with real care and sends us lots of updates. So lovely to have someone we trust to look after him it means we can really enjoy our holidays! Thanks again Kotryna 😁”
“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 👌”
“We are so happy we have found Rita after moving into the area. Our dog Emi is treated like one of her own and I love having the peace of mind that she is being well looked after. Rita provides regular updates and was excellent caring for our dog at the tail end of recovering from a stomach upset. Rita was happy to monitor her a little more closely & feed a special diet. Would recommend Rita to anyone.”

About: Hello! I've cared for different ages and temperaments of dogs, and fostered some puppies and kittens too. I grew up with a border-collie called Bob, who was a hyperactive puppy, and grew to be a lovely old dog of 15 years. Since, I have been looking after friend's, relative's and neighbour's dogs. As needed, I would walk, play, feed and bathe them. I don't have many dogs in my personal life, so I would be very happy to meet and take care of your pets. Thank you for taking the time to read this! I hope to hear from you soon, Polly :) Dog sitting/walking is my main job, but when there is a quiet period or I have some extra time/energy I deliver food on my bike. If I were to care for your dog I'll play with them, practice some training with them to build rapport and feed and walk and groom depending on your request. I focus on paying attention to their body language and giving space when they need it.
“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.”
“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!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after Cooper while we attended our son’s wedding. Helen was fantastic from start to finish. She kept us updated throughout with messages, photos and videos, which really helped us relax and enjoy the wedding knowing Cooper was happy, settled and being so well cared for. It was obvious from every update how much attention, affection and care he was getting. Cooper looked completely at home, relaxed and content, and Helen clearly understood his personality and routine straight away. She even took him to the paddock, which he absolutely loved. Helen is warm, reliable and clearly loves dogs. We would not hesitate to leave Cooper with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their dog. Thank you again Helen, from all of us, especially Cooper! 🐾”
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.

“I was extremely happy with the love and care, Jess received from Zena. She made sure Jess had lots of play and a good walk every day. She treated Jess as her own and Jess quickly attached to her. Jess also loved having a big brother doggo to play zoomies and beatdowns. Zena listened to all my instructions and followed through with all Jess' usual routines. She kindly sent me photos and messages about how Jess was doing every day. I could see she was very happy and it helped me to be able to completely relax whilst we were away. We will definitely be booking with Zena again in the future 😍”
About: Cats and Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a child. I had a cat growing up and she lived until 22! My preference as an adult now, is Dogs however. Although I have not owned one myself (something my husband and I plan to remedy ASAP), I have lots of experience taking care of dogs. One of my previous partners had 5! I want every dog we look after to feel comfortable, at home and have a great time! I have recently been made redundant, so am not working. At the moment, I am free most days, all of the day, with the odd pre-arranged plans. We have a partly fenced shared garden but 2 big parks within 5 minutes walking distance. We are on the ground floor, so quick loo breaks are extremely simple. Although overall, a small-ish flat, there are plenty of places for quiet and alone time as well as being able to cuddle and chill on the sofas when needed.
“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.”
“Frankcs stay with Kathy and her husband was great. He was obviously calm and happy on the pictures she sent over and he was a happy pup when I picked him up. Love Kathy's communication style, ai couldn't have asked for more.”
“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”
“Marta and her son were fantastic with Bonnie, they gave her the fuss she loves and the home she was happy to sleep in. Thank you for the last minute acceptance and will defo use again when needed.”

“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: 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.
“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! 😺”
“Safa looked after Yogi really well and I was able to enjoy my break away as I got loads of updates so I could see he was happy! I would definitely recommend Safa as a wonderful cat sitter🐱”
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.
“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: 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.
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: Hello! I’m Marie. I currently share my home with two very different cats: Boo, my anxious but lovable black fluff ball, and Coco, a very affectionate white cat with one blue eye and one green eye who loves cuddles and attention. Living with cats with such different personalities has taught me the importance of patience, understanding, and adapting care to each cat’s individual needs. I also have experience administering medication. My previous cat, Tryphon, a much-loved Maine Coon, had a heart condition and required ongoing care and medication. This experience helped me become confident in following care routines and paying close attention to a cat’s wellbeing. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone who genuinely cares. Whether your cat is shy and prefers quiet company or loves playtime and attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your feline family!
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring cat sitter with a genuine love for animals. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs, from playful and energetic to shy and independent. I’m also a cat owner myself and currently have two cats, so I’m very familiar with daily cat care including feeding, litter cleaning, playtime, grooming, and giving lots of attention and affection. I understand feline behaviour and know how to help cats feel calm and secure in their home environment. I’m dependable, patient, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your cat needs company, playtime, medication reminders, or just a quiet and caring presence, I’ll make sure they receive the best care possible.
“Claire is brilliant, friendly and absolutely great with our dog. We always feel super confident when Claire looks after our dog, and we would very happily book Claire’s services again.”

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.
About: Both dogs and cats have been a part of my family since childhood, and I hold an inherent love and interest in caring for these furry friends. I appreciate that no dog is the same, their individual needs and personalities are what make them so uniquely great. :) I am experienced in dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, breeds etc. whether it’s walk, drop in or boarding- I can cater for all your needs. We have one Frenchie who adores the company of other dogs, she is very gentle and playful and will welcome any dog into our home. I appreciate the anxieties that come with leaving your dog, but ensuring your dogs happiness and safety is paramount to me. Your dog will enjoy long walks, and park plays during the day and cosy up with us in the sitting room by night. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions and I look forward to meeting new fury friends. I work 100% remote from my house in central Worthing, therefore I am always around for any of your pooches needs, walks and play time. My partner works hybrid but will be around for walks at the weekend and evening cuddles. We have an enclosed garden for regular toilet breaks, play time or just an inquisitive nose about. Victoria Park about 1 minute away from the front door where we enjoy a vibrate dog social group, and we are ten minutes’ drive to Honeysuckle Lane which we frequent on the weekends. We have a spacious downstairs and our dog is free to roam wherever she pleases down here . All dogs that stay with us will be sleeping downstairs with ours.
“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!”
“Our 19wk old puppy Jasper had his first doggy day care with Kristyna and her 3yr old pup Frank. He absolutely loved it! Kristyna sent us video and photo updates throughout the day. Being a puppy Kristyna made sure Jasper got plenty of rest in between play sessions. When we picked Jasper up we could tell he was very happy in Kristyna’s care. Ave already booked further dates.”

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
“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!”
“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 ☺️”
About: I've been a dog owner for 28 years but a dog lover for longer! Due to my love of dogs, I have become an informal dog sitter for friends, family and neighbours over the last 10 years and I find walking them like my own personal therapy session! I treat every dog like my own and love getting to know their individual personalities and needs. Recently returned from a working holiday abroad, and looking for work so available during the week and on the weekends. When I restart work I will be available on weekends. I have a large enclosed rear garden accessible via a locked side door. I also have a friendly older dog that gets on well with other dogs.
“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 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.

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.
“Claire had a warm and calm welcoming to our nervous daxie. She was patient waiting for Monty to build trust in her. We got regular updates and photos of Monty on there walk down the beach which put our minds at rest. Highly recommend Claire and we are booking more walks and boarding in the near future 😀”
“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.”
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 have a dog myself at home, she is a canine partner for my mum so I have experienced first hand what it’s like to train a dog and what is required of maintaining a healthy routine and life for a dog. I have dog sat before and walked other dogs before and love it so much!! I am very flexible with pet care, if you send me a message of what you would require of me I would be happy to fit you in! I am happy to feed, play or wash your furry friend, or just spend time with them! I am also very happy to walk them in the local area!
About: I've been around dogs from an early age, training them from puppyhood all the way. I have a 12 year old Jack Russell now, who's been with me since she was 12 weeks old. She accompanies me on residential bookings. I'm sure she'd happily write me a glowing review if she could, but suffice it to say, she's a happy, healthy, secure little soul. I’ve used Rover myself, and so am very clear on what sort of things would be important to you as an owner. I'm self employed and work from 'home', which means I can work anywhere! This means I can be present and available for anyone in my care, for extended periods, even during day care arrangements. I'm very flexible! I'm very happy to be instructed in exactly how you would like your pet to be cared for, and will replicate their usual schedule as closely as you want me to. I'm particularly concerned with safety and physical security, closely followed by affection and emotional security. I aim for there to be nothing missing from your pet's life during your break except you!
“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”
About: I have taken care of many animals including dogs, cats, horses and rabbits from family’s to friends I have always been reliable and loving and the animals safe I’m currently cabin crew so I have very random days during the month that I can take bookings and can’t. I always receive my flights for the next month 3 weeks before it. I would take care of your pet as if it where my own. I would make sure I give them all the care, attention, and any needs that they require to make sure they are happy and well
“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 🐶🩷”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after Cooper while we attended our son’s wedding. Helen was fantastic from start to finish. She kept us updated throughout with messages, photos and videos, which really helped us relax and enjoy the wedding knowing Cooper was happy, settled and being so well cared for. It was obvious from every update how much attention, affection and care he was getting. Cooper looked completely at home, relaxed and content, and Helen clearly understood his personality and routine straight away. She even took him to the paddock, which he absolutely loved. Helen is warm, reliable and clearly loves dogs. We would not hesitate to leave Cooper with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their dog. Thank you again Helen, from all of us, especially Cooper! 🐾”
“I was extremely happy with the love and care, Jess received from Zena. She made sure Jess had lots of play and a good walk every day. She treated Jess as her own and Jess quickly attached to her. Jess also loved having a big brother doggo to play zoomies and beatdowns. Zena listened to all my instructions and followed through with all Jess' usual routines. She kindly sent me photos and messages about how Jess was doing every day. I could see she was very happy and it helped me to be able to completely relax whilst we were away. We will definitely be booking with Zena again in the future 😍”

“Marta and her son were fantastic with Bonnie, they gave her the fuss she loves and the home she was happy to sleep in. Thank you for the last minute acceptance and will defo use again when needed.”
About: I’ve been in contact with dogs over 10 years! They are a part of the family/friend group - and daily routine. Going out for breakfast/walks/watching a movie? The dog is next to me! Working from home: Monday till Friday I can walk the dog three times a day! Weekend: full attention for the dog + long run (10miles) if you have an energetic dog :). We have a safe garden with a gate. Dog can walk freely outside! No other pets in the house - so we have full attention for the dog we have over.

“Claire looked after Scout and Matilda for a weekend in my home. She kept in touch regularly, with lots of photos. The doggies had regular walks and lots of cuddles and looked relaxed and happy. Everything was smooth and problem-free and I would not hesitate to have Claire come and stay again!”
“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! 🐶”
“I contacted Lily 1 week before we needed all day care for our two dogs. She was happy to help and also fitted a meet and greet in at her house. She was very good with my dogs, gave them to sniff around and meet her lovely dog Rosie. I was impressed by the fact the she had clearly read and taken on board information before hand and had great questions. Lily has been brilliant at keeping in touch throughout the process. She sent photos and updates throughout the day and took them to a woodland walk which I know they would have loved. My boys were content when I collected them and had a lovely sleep on return. I have already booked Lily again. Thank you so much 🐶🐶”
