House Sitting in South Ribble

“Sid has his first overnight stay last weekend and had a great time and was spoilt rotten. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mick for any dog care, we will definitely be using Mick again in the near future.”

“Thank you Inga for looking after Hamish so well. He’s been so well looked after and that was evident in the photos sent as well as now I’m home. We certainly hope you will come again.”

“My dog LolaBerry can be a difficult/ reactive little pupper due to early life experiences. I don't trust many people to look after my dog but I do trust Tameika and I have asked her to look after her previously when I have been at work or have social plans. Tameika knows exactly how to handle her, calm her down and keep her safe. Lola adores her and aaaaall the cuddles. Lola loves it when she visits and always runs to get her favourite toy to present. Tameika is the biggest dog lover I have ever met!”

“Kirsty is an absolute delight! I have got two very temperamental small dogs, one which is borderline ADHD most likely and the other can be funny with people and snap, we did a meet and greet and Taco the Pug barked but settled and Kobe (the one who gets a bit grumpy) was absolutely as ease Kirsty gave me updates throughout the night, pictures etc and the house was spotless when I came home! The boys seemed chilled and not stressed at all 100% recommend Thank you very much!!!”

About: I often take care of friends and family's dogs and have done for years. We’ve had family dogs my whole life and now I’ve moved out I don’t want to commit to a dog of my own just yet, so dog sitting would be the next best thing for me. I currently work full time but from home 2 days a week and can be flexible with letting them out or taking time to play with the dogs. I’m very active so go on runs and walks anyway and would love some company. I have a fenced back garden with grass. We’ve looked after dogs and there’s been no issues. I have also dog sitter in someone else’s home and again have never had any issues.

“Nicola would make an excellent dog sitter. She has always had dogs of her own but sadly has recently lost her last one due to old age. Nobody could love a dog more, she is so wonderful with animals, has the biggest heart and genuinely wants the best for all animals. You would be lucky to have her sit your dog.”

About: I have had a dog in my family in Scotland since I was 12. I have since moved down to England and do not have any pets here, so would love to be able to help you look after yours! My family recently got a puppy and I have helped my mum train him while I've been visiting home, so am very eager to help you with training, if required. I currently work full time. I work Tuesday (8-7), Wednesday (8-7), Thursday (8-6), and Sunday (10-6) so am able to fit in pet sitting around those days. If in my home, then I will be in at all times to care for your pet and keep them company while following any rules you have for their care. In your home, I will follow any rules and guidance you have for being in your house.

About: I have lived and grown up with with dogs for all 22 years of my life, including looking after my dogs during the puppy stage, training them, and inevitably providing a more end of life care for them. I often look after both my family and friends dogs if they are away, which includes following each individual dogs schedule to ensure they are not thrown off too much with their family leaving. I find that the dogs I look after find comfort in having me with them while their family are away. I am very familiar with the Preston area and can map out amazing walks for all kinds of dogs, long walks, shorter walks, walks where they may interact with other dogs, walks where there are less likely to be other dogs. I am able to adapt to all dog kinds as I know each dog is individual. I work an office job Monday to Friday, however I am able to nip in on my lunch breaks and also after work. Should I be doing a dog sitting job, I would be able to stay from the second I get home from work to the second I leave, and I would also be able to nip in midday. On a weekend, I am completely free to stay with the dog all day. When staying in the pet owners home, I will ensure I ask the pet owner if there are any specifics that I need to know in terms of the pet or house care. I will follow any and all rules that are left for me and will ensure the upmost respect and care to not only their pet but their house too.

“Vanessa is great with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. She has lots of love for them and also ensure they're happy, healthy and safe at all times! 10/10 would recommend her as the best choice to care for your pup”

I have a fenced home with a beautiful fur baby to keep ur fur baby company! They will also be allowed to cuddle up and relax on the furniture😁

“Trust me, you want Jen taking care of your dog! She's like a pet whisperer, always showering them with love and attention. I've seen her in action when looking after my German Shepard, Zena. I’ve let her look after her on numerous occasions and she's practically a pro, so responsible and reliable—she won't miss a beat when it comes to feeding, meds, walks or playtime. Zena absolutely loves it when she gets to spend time with Jen. Plus, her communication skills are top-notch, making sure my dog feels comfortable and happy. Honestly, any dog will love Jen as their caregiver!”

“Abi is absolutely pawsome when it comes to taking care of furry friends. She's responsible, trustworthy, and has a natural connection with dogs. I've seen her in action, and she's always full of energy and love for our four-legged pals. With Abi, you can be sure that your dog will get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I highly recommend her for the job! 🐾”

“Debbie and Andrew looked after Luna for 2 nights and weee absolutely fantastic, they kept me up to date with how she was doing with lots of communication and pictures. Would recommend them to anyone. Thanks again”

About: I’ve always been surrounded by dogs, ranging from as little as staffs to as big as Great Danes and Alsatians, ever since owning my own dog Zeus who is a German shepherd/husky, I have learnt everything there is to know, from basic training to more advanced reactive work with a trainer directly. Right now pet care is perfect for it’s flexibitly as I am a self employed travel consultant and can work anywhere from a laptop, so no job is too far for me. Although I am aiming to do only visits and stay overs, my gadden is very large with 6 ft fences to ensure your dogs safety, I have also crate trained before with my own dog if need be.

About: I have experience working in a doggy day care and a rescue cattery. I have owned a dog for 8 years and have had cats for 11 years. I am available most days during the week to look after your pets either overnight or during the day at your house. I can look after dogs or cats. I own 1 dog and 2 cats so I am very aware of keeping them safe from the road, other animals, choking and food hazards etc.

“Reliable and Caring Dog Walker! I have been using Marie as my dog walker for the past few months, and I couldn't be happier with the service provided. She is incredibly reliable, always showing up on time and ready to take my furry friend for a walk. Not only is Marie punctual, but she also shows a genuine love and care for my dog. I can tell that my dog is in good hands and is well taken care of during their walks together. She goes the extra mile to make sure my dog gets the exercise and attention they need. Communication with Marie has been excellent as well. She is always prompt to respond to messages, accommodating with scheduling, and provides detailed updates about each walk. I highly recommend Marie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. My dog and I are both incredibly happy with the service provided!”

About: We’ve both had separate childhood dogs and now have our own furry baby who we trained from being a pup! The majority of our experience lies with caring for spaniels but we love all breeds. We can cater for all your pet’s needs, such as having a crate available, feeding them their favourite food/treats, taking them to their favourite walking destination, having a puppy carrier (for puppies who are yet to go on walks before their immunisations) and much more! We work full-time but different shifts, meaning we are available every weekend, some weekdays and some evenings, after 5pm. Our availability is different each week. We have a large, fenced back garden with a side gate that has no gaps underneath. We have a dog crate and plenty of toys and space in the house for your dog to run and play in!

“Can't recommend Kathy enough. It's the first time she's sat for us but won't be the last. From the initial request all the way through the booking she was reliable, engaged and very professional. All the dogs loved her and we loved getting regular updates and pictures.”

“Brilliant service . Recommended to anyone”

“Beth is a responsible caregiver to animals. She will regularly feed our 2 cats and dog. She will also regularly walk our dog in all weathers.”
