About: I am an environmental consultant, constantly out in nature with dog experience and handling of large breeds throughout my whole life. I understand every dog is different and I’m happy to provide that home from home experience for your family member! I know how daunting it can be to leave your dog, so FaceTime and pictures can be sent to ensure your peace in mind. Your dog will be treated like my own, with as many walks as required, secure garden and treats on hand! I will abide by your rules! And help with any training if required! I’ve experience in rescues, nervous dogs and aggressive dogs. Please just let me know your dogs needs. I work from home, and there will always be somebody around to look after your dog, whilst also making sure they are having a great holiday! My garden has a 6 foot fence, where the dogs can play! I also have an internal garden where the dogs will be fully enclosed should this be required! I live not too far from dog runs where I can access an off lead training or run around time. This is usually done every other day.

9. Laura K.
About: Growing up, I've had the privilege of caring for a variety of pets, which has created my passion for all animals. With over 20 years of having dogs and cats in my family, I've attended puppy classes and taken on the responsibility of looking after family dogs. I enjoy going on walks, playing, and nurturing pets, and I'm well-equipped to handle any situations that may arise during these outings. My extensive background in pet care ensures that I can provide the love and attention your furry friend deserves, making them feel comfortable and loved while you're away. You can trust that your pet will be in great hands I am currently a third year student studying law. However, I am only in university for 2-3 hours a day. I also work part time as a manger in McDonald’s, doing 2-3 shifts a week. This leaves me with plenty spare time during the week and at the weekend when I am off! I have a reasonably big back garden for your pets to run around and play in. My family live around the corner with a golden retriever and a cockapoo, giving your furry pet plenty company on walks if allowed! All in all it is a safe and happy environment for your wee pet to be in.

About: I have over 15 years experience with cats and dogs I owned a boxer x husky and staffy which sadly passed away due to old age I was going to get another but I just dont think could deal with the heartbreak it leaves on you so decided to make this as a job instead so it’s best of both worlds I can look after pets while I work ! I have 2 children age 6&7 so when boarding the pets would need to be friendly around children. I am also fully licensed to board in my Home and fully insured for extra safety hope to hear from your furry pets soon❤️ I currently making this my full time job so I have all the time for the job and very excited to get started in this I have a very large and enclosed garden also can do crate aswell if preferred will be also walked up to 4 times a day

“Another great drop-in service from Karen. She takes wonderful care of my cat Bella and I will definitely be re-booking her for all my future visits.”


13. Mollie-Mae M.

“Mollie-Mae looked after our cat for 5 days whilst we were away. I’m really happy with the way Mollie-Mae looked after our wee boy and was respectable with the property. It now makes it easier to think about going away knowing I can book Mollie-Mae and my cat will be well looked after.”


14. Rachel P.
About: I’m Rachel, and anyone who knows me knows how much I love animals! As well as a vast collection of pets over the years I’ve worked in dog day care and kennels, a cattery and on a farm and horse livery. I have proficient experience especially with puppies from 8 weeks old, as my mother trains guide dog puppies and we have had many over the years. I am a full time emergency services shift worker so cannot commit to full time boarding, dog walking and day care (for now) but have plenty of space for cat sitting. I can do walkies and day care on my days off and when on annual leave. My schedule will be updated to reflect this. I have a fully fenced back garden and plenty of local parks. Any feeding, toileting, cleaning cat litter trays and any medication can be provided.
15. Heather N.
“Heather is amazing with dogs! She's super friendly, responsible, and my pup loves her. You can tell she genuinely cares and loves spending time with animals. I totally trust her to take great care of any dog!”

“Caitlin very kindly looked after my westie Bonnie whilst I went abroad on holiday. Caitlin was exemplary as a my dog sitter, with lots of pup dates and photos sent to me throughout. Bonnie was reluctant to leave when I returned! I wholeheartedly recommend Caitlin as a trusted dog sitter.”


18. Sarah M.

“Sarah did a wonderful job of looking after my 2 cats providing daily health updates & photos to put my mind at rest. I would highly recommend Sarah & home visits.”


19. Olivia R.
“Olivia obviously loves animals and was great at looking after my little fur ball. She listened to my requests not to overwalk him and he comes back each time happy and refreshed. I have no hesitation in recommending Olivia if you need a dog walker or sitter, she's really trustworthy and careful.”


20. Andrew B.
“Andrew has looked after my Staffordshire bull terrier Buster multiple times when I have been on holiday. I am always so confident that he is in great hands. He always shows him affection and loves to take him on exciting walks and to the beach which Buster loves!”
