“Molly absolutely loved staying with Julie. The house is perfect and Julie takes such good care and understands exactly what molly needs. I feel very confident leaving her there. Definitely recommend.”

About: I started looking after my neighbours 2 dogs, a boarder collie and a smaller breed dog! I would walk them twice a day all through the fields and rivers playing with lots of toys, I would do visits to play with them and to spent time with them in the garden, feed them, take them out, wash them off after muddy walks and make sure they always had everything they needed, I did this for about 6-7 months until I moved house, I now have my own dog who is a 1 year old german shepherd who is my full responsibility, I know how much your pets mean to you so I will always make sure to look after them as I would want mine to be!! I'm currently not working at all, so I have lots of time on my hands to help out others with there pets, I'm available most time of the day and pretty flexible! I have a German shepherd who loves to play with other bigger dogs!! A large garden with tall fences and lots of room to play

“At just 12 weeks old I was nervous about leaving my pup but Claire was so welcoming; evidently v in tune with dogs. The proof was on the 2nd day I left Figgy, when she (the pup) happily went back to Claire and in fact seemed rather excited to see her again.”


“Ashleigh was extremely helpful and caring and Ronnie the goldendoodle had a wonderful day! This is the first time I’ve used a dog sitting service and I was 100% happy with the experience. Hope to book with Ashleigh again in the near future.”


“We couldn't wish for a better sitter. It was our first time using the app &a dog boarding services. Deanne and her family made it as smooth as possible keeping us updated during the day with some lovely pictures. Thanks again Deanne and would definitely recommend!!!”


“Charlie and Cooper had a lovely time with Trase. Communication was great and we were kept up to date throughout their stay with photos and messages. Will definitely use Trase again, and you can go away happy knowing they're in safe hands, thank you so much!”


About: We have previously had a black lab, golden retriever and a cockapoo, have trained from pups and have a fox red lab who comes to stay. Whilst we are desperate to welcome another dog of our own into life, travel abroad means that we cannot commit right now. The solution is to take our enjoyment out of looking after other peoples dogs! We are both in the business of sport and work from home so we are happy to look after dogs that want the quieter life at home as one of us is always here, but we are also fine to take on the energetic breeds that might want to try and out run us on the trails running. We both work self employed from home and pick and choose our hours so are around 24/7 when we have 4 legged company. We also have 2 teenagers who are dog lovers and like to join is on walks. As well as walking we are keen runners for dogs that are happy to run a few miles with us. We have a fenced in back garden with grass, patio and stones. A decent sized house with a safety gate option if dogs are not allowed to use the stairs for any reason. We live in a quiet cul-de-sac. Lots of access to walks including ham hill country park and local trails. We own a van with ample space for crates and owners chosen way for dogs to travel.

“Bennie had a wonderful time with Elissa. He was so chilled and happy when he came home after an overnight stay. Elissia took everything in her stride, clearly loved being around him, and was really chilled about looking after him, but conscientious and caring at the same time. I would highly recommend Elissia to anyone who needs their pet looking after, and we will definitely be booking her again!”


“Ella was amazing! Milo spent two days, Wednesday and Thursday, with Ella. On the second day he was super excited to see her again. I have never left Milo with anyone before and was very nervous about it, but Ella kept me updated throughout the day, which I thought was lovely! Would definitely recommend Ella and the care she provided for my very hectic puppy 🐶 We will definitely be booking with Ella again!”


“Billie had a good time with Alan, she came home content, tired from good walkies, and well cared for. She’s a high energy dog, so not everyone’s cup of tea, but Alan was great with her. Would definitely recommend and use again.”


About: My love for dogs or any animals for that matter has been ever since I can remember. I've looked after families and friends dogs and have loved the idea of doing it full time, and thoroughly enjoy every minute of it, rain or shine. I am more than happy to train your puppy/dog as I have for my own. I currently work part time, so have lots of time to collect, play and look after your fur babies for you, and do whatever to suit yours and your dogs needs. I will look after your fur child in the comfort of our home, we have a safe back garden with high fencing and some lovely walks around to suit all needs. I can also do boarding from your own home aswell if needed, on weekends only.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. And I am completely obsessed with all dogs 😍 I say hello to dogs more than humans and have never had any problems with dogs in the slightest 🫶🏻 I am new to this app as this is something I’d love to do, but thought this would be a good starting point. I have a Jack Russell myself that lives with my parents and we take him on such lovely walks and I know lots of nice walking areas! I also absolutely love photography so I’m sure I’ll be sending you lots of lovely pictures aswell 😊😂 I do have 2 jobs already but it has some flexibility so with enough notice I’m sure I can make it work. I absolutely love going on walks and if it means taking a furry friend for a lunchtime walk I’d absolutely love that! It gets me out of the house aswell 😊🫶🏻 I am always extra careful when letting dogs off the lead and would only do that if your dog is well trained and you agree to it. I am an incredibly safe and well trusted person.

About: I have grown up with dogs and have experience with a variety of breeds! I am very keen to look after some furry friends in my home and any pets that I look after will be well loved, walked and cared for as if they're our own! I am often asked by friends and family to look after their dogs and always enjoy doing so! Having recently reduced my working hours I am at home a lot more, meaning I have plenty of time to care for your pets and give them lots of attention! I have a large enclosed garden that your dog will be able to roam and explore. I also only live a ten minute walk away from our local country park! I like to keep pets downstairs only in my home and will tuck them up in their beds in my spacious kitchen of an evening at bed time.
