1. Joe P.
“Joe has started helping me take care of my puppy who is very very active and who needs a lot of walking and training. I recommend Joe because he has helped me in puppy training and has walked my dog for me when my illness was bad. Lanka is my first dog and I have small experience and Joe is very good at explaining and Lanka likes him very much.”


2. Aneta J.

“Aneta looked after our dogs for the first time at the weekend, they warmed to her instantly and she took time to understand what our dogs liked/disliked. We’ve rebooked Aneta for a week or so in September and we feel happy and comfortable knowing our dogs are in good hands.”


3. Chloe J.

“Our puppy has separation anxiety, but Chloe was there to look after her and our puppy took to her. We appreciated the updates in photos. We would recommend Chloe to anyone who needs dog-sitting :)”

“I cannot recommend Ali more highly - he has looked after my two dogs for weeks, and helped me with my friend’s dog as well. He adapts to any of the dogs’ requirements and treats them with such respect and care. He is trusted to stay at my house. He has taken dogs to the vet for me and conveys all information immediately and with great attention to detail. I am very grateful to have Ali to help with the dogs.”

About: With over 10 years experience caring for pets, I’ve looked after a variety of breeds and animals. Trusted by family, friends and neighbours for walks, feeding and overnight care, I now have my own friendly pooch who can be great company for your pet. Whether you’re looking for sitting services or simply a good walk, I’ll provide loving and reliable care as if they were my own. I’m a freelance worker who works remotely from home so I can be super flexible as long as notices provided. I provide sitting services and walking services throughout the week and the weekends. This can be tailored to your preferences/needs. I live in a ground floor flat with a fenced garden and have a friendly dog to keep yours company. I also have a van for easy transportation to and from good walking locations.

“Sophie was excellent. She done an amazing job with keeping me and my partner up to date with our kittens while we were away, giving us peace of mind. Our kittens seemed to warm to her quickly which was very endearing.”


7. Bethany N.

“I came across this app by chance as was in need of help to pop on to see my little boy whilst I had to go to work. Myself and my partners rosters didn’t match on this occasion. I messaged Beth to arrange a meeting first hand before committing; she happily agreed to meet Mylo and brought him round some treats to gain his trust. I honestly couldn't praise this girl enough and within seconds of meeting her I knew I could trust her with my little boy. Beth was on time to each visit and sent me photos of Mylo whilst in her care. Beth I thank you so very much, I will definitely msg you again when I need your help In the future; you’ve made a forever friend in Mylo. ?”


8. Angela B.
About: I’ve been a cat owner and lover for 40+years. I have owned and looked after numerous other animals including dogs, goats etc but cats are my speciality. Worked in banking since the 1980’s, became known for diligence, investigating and safeguarding vulnerable customers. After redundancy I have taken to my passion, which is caring for animals and people. I know that not all cats can or will go to a cattery. If you are looking for some one who you can completely trust with your most precious friend and companion, I am available. I would love to meet you and your pet to discuss your needs or to talk at length about them when ever. After redundancy I have taken to my passion, which is caring for animals and people. I care for an elderly neighbour on Mondays, and am other wise free for Cat sitting or house sitting with Dogs. Cats and dogs will be cared for with the utmost diligence in their own homes, with safety and comfort being main priority. Schedules for feeding and walks adhered to as well and medication needs.


9. Georgie M.
About: I have grown up with dogs, hamsters, rabbits and cats. I have moved out and have a dog of my own who is a 2 1/2 year old German Shepard x Doberman, I've had her since a 7 week old puppy. We love going out for long walks and being social in the dog park. I have good experience with big dogs, and highly active dogs, as my family dog was a border collie who didn't ever want to stop. Alongside this I love all other animals, my sisters always had a wide range of reptiles and I've enjoyed meeting and greeting her latest addition. I feel like as long as I'm with any type of animal I'm happy, if that's long dog walks outside or just a bit of attention on the sofa. All animals deserve to be treated like family and I can assure you, if you chose me to help out with your pet, I'll treat it like my own and with love and care I work 4 days a week, I have Saturday to Monday off and I love spending to with my dog, doing dog walks and being outside. I have a fenced off garden where my dog and your pet will be allowed to go outside, I take them for a morning walk, and evening walk, and they are let outside multiple times throughout the day. They get lots of cuddles and care. My dog gets fed in the morning and the evening, and a few treats whilst out on the walks.

16. Florence S.
About: I've plenty of experience as a pet sitter and working as a volunteer at animal rescue sanctuaries. I grew up with cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens and ducks and I had a deep love for pigs! I would often take care of the animals when my parents were away and walk my singing teacher's dog. I love to travel, often volunteering as I do, for example in India where I helped look after, feed and walk over 20 dogs, 10 cats and varying numbers of puppies and kittens as well as rehoming. I've been a registered cat sitter in the UK for 5 years and began housesitting last year which I absolutely love! I'm a musician and currently focusing on home recording which means I have my own flexible schedule and need lots of nice breaks to cuddle animals and go outside for walks! I'm attentive to details and making sure your pet feels as comfortable as they can in your absence. I'll follow your usual routine and be sure to keep your home clean and tidy.
