“Fantastic experience. Rebel was relaxed throughout his stay and had lots of walks and playtime. Jamie and Jieun even managed to get him in the shower for a quick wash which is something I've never managed! I was kept updated with photos and videos throughout his stay. I highly recommend Jamie and Jieun.”

“Dionne is the absolute best. Superb communication and updates, has a real love for all dogs and treats them like her own. You really couldn’t ask for anything else. Fabulous! 🙂”

“Harley had an amazing time. He is normally very nervous around strangers especially men but he was very comfortable with Allan. I got lots of updates throughout the day with great photos! Harley came home happy and tired from all his walks. Harley will definitely be visiting Allan again.”

“Highly recommend Alex! He’s great with our collie, Willow. He updated us loads with pictures throughout the day. Our dog is very nervous and both people/dog reactive and Alex was great, allowing us to introduce her gradually by visiting a few times before leaving her with him for the first time. We’re delighted with how her first stay went and will definitely be booking him in the future. Don’t think Willow wanted to come home after finding a comfortable spot to sleep on his table. Totally put out minds at ease knowing she’s in good hands! Thanks again Alex! Willow can’t wait to see you again”

“Kaelan looked after my 15 week old puppy, Albie for the day and Albie had the best time! He was so happy with him. Lots of fun and socialisation and he was knackered when he came home. Already booked in again. Thanks Kaelan :)”

About: I’ve always had at least one cat or dog, and had 3 cats and a dog for the last 15 years while my kids were growing up. I trained both of my dogs and have fostered kittens and puppies short term. More recently I pampered and tended to my senior cats in their old age and I miss them so much! So now I provide dog and cat-sitting services to get my fur-baby fix! I am currently available both on week-days and weekends and can be flexible depending on your requirements. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule! I don’t have any pets at the moment so I’d be delighted to welcome your pet here! It’s too quiet! I have a partially fenced back garden on a quiet street. I love long walks and I’m just as happy to pet sit in your home depending on your preference.
About: Individual Attention: "I believe every dog is unique. I'll tailor my care to your dog's specific needs and preferences." I will let you know anytime how your dog is and send you videos and photos. I'm working 2 days a week. I have plenty of time to be with your dog and give him all the care he needs. Your pet will be well stimulated on those walks with games and treats. Our garden is safe. It is fenced of and locked. I prefere to take doggies for a walk before sending them to the garden. But the garden is safe.
“Yun and her family were amazing with the boys. Accommodating with our timings for the day, clear and speedy communication and kept us up to date during the stay. We would highly recommend and use again. The boys had a great time. Thanks Robert”

About: I’ve had dogs as a child and adult and love spending time with them. My latest dog passed away last year and he has taught me so much over the years. He was a rescue, very anxious and unsure of everything. He ended up my best friend for so many years. I really miss having a dog around and know how hard it is to find someone to trust looking after your best pal. I also worked for years as part of the committee for Staffordshire Rescue Scotland, helping to assess, train and rehome rescue dogs. I work Monday Tuesday Thursday Friday so am available weekends, Wednesday’s and evenings. My dog was never left longer than 3-4 hours and I’ve a camera to make sure he was ok. I’d work around your dogs needs. I’ve a house with secure garden and love walks. I’m happy for dogs on the furniture, bed etc but happy to follow what you would like.
About: Hi, I’m Cirila — I’d love to look after your pet while you’re away and make sure they feel happy, safe and relaxed. I’ve grown up with animals and have over 10 years of pet-sitting experience. I share my home with Fox, my gentle and friendly lurcher, who’s calm, well socialised, and used to having other dogs around. I’m self-employed, so I’m home most of the time and can give your pet plenty of attention, cuddles, and company. Dogs staying with me get at least one nice long walk a day, plus extra walks or playtime depending on what they enjoy. I’m also happy to pet-sit in your home if that’s what your pet prefers. I have experience looking after cats and budgies, as well as small animals. I really enjoy getting to know each pet and treating them like part of the family. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered!) friend 🐶🐱🦜 Pet care is part of my everyday life. I’m self-employed, so I only take bookings when I’m working from home or on holiday, meaning your pet always has company. My own lurcher, Fox, keeps me on a routine of walks, playtime, and chill time — so looking after another dog just fits right in. I make sure every pet gets plenty of exercise, attention and a comfortable, calm day. In my home: Your dog becomes part of the family. They get daily walks, lots of company, playtime, and whatever routine you prefer. Fox is very friendly and enjoys having a buddy around. In your home: I follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel at home. I’m tidy, respectful, and send plenty of photo updates. With your permission, I may bring Fox along — he’s gentle and used to house-sitting with me.
About: I’m new to professional pet sitting but have a genuine love for dogs and cats. I’m calm, attentive, and reliable, and I take pride in following routines closely so pets feel safe and comfortable. I treat every animal with care, patience, and affection, just as if they were my own. I do work so after hours is best and weekends too so anytime time after 5pm is usually good. I can also be lenient when on holidays ofcourse. Weekends are usually good after 9am I currently live in a flat that is located near a pet friendly park area. It’s a family oriented location so the pets will always be in a safe place and around safe people.
About: I recently had a Bernese Mountain Dog called Harris who unfortunately we lost at the age of 11 months, this is still very raw however I still have so much love to give to dogs! I work 2 days in the office and 3 days at home, free most weekends all day and night to watch dogs if and when required. I have a fenced enclosed large back garden which allows dogs to enjoy running free and plenty of space to get out for exercise and play with toys
“Dexter loved his time with Dillon as usual! He's always so good and calm with him. Dex loves seeing Dillon and getting plenty of cuddles, lazing around on his sofa. There's never been any doubt that Dillon is amazing with him”

About: Hello! My name is Mia and I adore dogs and have been walking and looking after them for 13 years. I have worked as a Dog Care Specialist at Guide Dogs New Zealand, an Adoption Advisor for Dogs Trust Glasgow and also ran my own dog care business in Spain. I am extremely reliable, trustworthy and I love to walk dogs in any weather. I started out walking my neighbours dogs in the UK at the age of 12, which escalated into dog training, and I quickly became known as the local Dog Whisperer. I walked up to 4 dogs everyday after school. When I was 15, I moved to Spain and set up my own dog boarding and training business, resulting in a great success on the island. With the money I saved, I then relocated to New Zealand, aged 18, where I worked looking after Rhodesian Ridgebacks and also worked at Guide Dogs in the training kennels. I have a diploma in Canine Behaviour Training and I am now in Scotland where I want to continue to walk, train and care for dogs. I also had two wonderful dogs of my own, a Golden Retriever and a German Shepherd who I adored for their whole lives until they both crossed rainbow bridge. I am now eager to continue working with dogs and carlinga for people's lovely pets as if they're my own. I have a lot of love and time to give to your wonderful pup! Hello! I am currently staying in Hamilton and due to being currently unemployed, I am very flexible with availability for dog walking and house sitting! I treat every dog as if they are my own. I adore all breeds and sizes and I make a great effort to make the dog feel comfortable and safe with me, as well as frequently sending the owner photos/videos of their pup! I have many references and keeping the dog healthy and happy are always my top priorities. I look forward to hearing from you!
“Chelsea was amazing with my two dogs Alfie and Albert both labs! We met prior to see how my two were with her wee sulley and they were great, she was so accommodating aswell and kept me updated with them also, they didn’t want to come back haha, will be re-booking for sure! HIGHLY RECOMMEND ❤️❤️❤️”

About: Hi guys i’m new here and looking forward to getting started and getting nice feedback. Mikey had been to 2 sitters and he has great reviews. After using Rover and knowing how stressful trying to find someone to help, thought i’d love to do this Love all dogs and me and Mikey would love to watch your fur baby. . Free 24/7. I’m taking a break from work till the summer but will still carry on her after that. so in the meantime i can do this and always be available. All types of services apply I’ve a decent sized fenced garden, concrete and Astroturf out side taps and loads of dog toys. My dog would sit there all day if he could
About: I’ve been looking after people’s pets since 2015, and I absolutely love it. Zeeko (my dog of 5 years) is a rescue, so I’ve spent a lot of time working with a trainer and learning how to handle all kinds of dog behaviour. I also studied Veterinary Biosciences which gave me a solid understanding of how dogs think and feel. I trust my instincts and can read dogs well, whether they’re nervous, playful, or somewhere in between. I work from home for a very flexible company. My daily schedule with my own dog is: 15 minute morning walk (8-9am), 45-60 minute afternoon walk at the park (12-2pm), 15 minute post-work walk (5-6pm), 5 minute pre-bed walk (10-11pm). I'm happy to change this schedule to suit your dog's needs. At the weekend the schedule is slightly different and usually features a longer walk in the wild somewhere. I live with my partner who is potentially more dog mad than me. My home is really dog-friendly (it has to be, Zeeko lives here!). When dog friends come to visit, I make sure the space is safe and stress-free: all toys and bones are put away to avoid any resource guarding, and meals are served in separate rooms. Zeeko is very well socialised and loves having a friend to play with. I spend at least an hour a day playing with the dogs. Whether your dog prefers cuddles on the bed or their own space, I’ll follow your lead to help them feel at home. Before any stay, I like to meet new dogs outdoors in a neutral spot. This is a non-negotiable and sets everyone up for a great experience. My "garden" is a back-court with some planters. There's no grass, but I prefer taking dogs to the park anyway.

Parris was amazing with our dogs. They settled in really well and didn’t appear anxious at all. She clearly loves dogs and they got on so well with her. I was nervous about using a dog sitter but would definitely send them to be looked after by Parris again. She was lovely and the dogs were very well looked after.
