House Sitting South Somerset

“Absolutely fantastic service. We found ourselves in a bit of a last-minute bind with our new puppy, and Veronika couldn’t have been more helpful. She took the time to put us completely at ease, even coming over for a pre-visit chat—despite our rescheduling and general back-and-forth. Any initial hesitation on our part quickly disappeared. She’s a genuinely kind and compassionate person with a clear love for animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”

“Emma is so lovely and kind. My older cat isn't normally a fan of strangers but she liked Emma from the moment she came in. Emma looked after both of my cats how I would. Will ask Emma to look after then again.”

“Nina looked after our french bulldog Bella in our own home for the weekend (Friday-Sunday) whilst my family & I went to a family wedding. Beforehand, Nina gladly came over to meet Bella, finding out everything she needed to know in order to look after her well. This included checking Bella's routine, diet, habits etc. We knew that Nina would be popping in throughout the weekend but we feel that she went above and beyond. As we felt Bella did not need overnight visits, Nina came first thing in the morning to let her out etc and stayed for every visit at least 2-3 hours - visiting throughout the day for extended periods, before settling her for bed. Nina also sent us regular photos and videos which reassured us that Bella was being well cared for. In addition, Nina helped to train Bella which was definitely an added bonus. We 100% trusted Nina & could not have found a better dog sitter. We would absolutely recommend Nina to anyone requiring a pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking care of our family dog so well x”

“Pickle was so pleased to see Cherie, He had a great time, walked throughout the day and had fun in the doggie field, Cherie was very professional looking after Pickle, He sat by the door for a while when Cherie left, and slept loads from being worn out, I would recommend Cherie to anyone and have booked her again already.”

About: I have either owned or looked after dogs for 35 years everything from new born puppy's to old grumpy dogs that need specal care and medication. If staying at your house up to two one hour walks a day and feeding and treats as directed by the owner. I also have experience with cats however id rather not do medication for them. Id rather medium to large dogs that like long walks or that can run next to me. Im flexible, id follow the discussed routine by the owners and the needs of your dog. Specal food requirement and custom walks. Id rather bigger dogs Id follow and discussed routine with your pet. I'd communicate with you while you are away about your pets wellbeing. I could also water plants or received parcels for you while your away.

About: I’m a seasoned pet sitter with 4+ years of experience and a full house of my own. I’m confident in administering medication, including insulin, and I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages and breeds — from fluffy long-hairs that need regular grooming to independent farm or feral cats. I have a company called Woofs & Whiskers, which provides pet and house sitting, which allows me to offer a wide range of availability during weekdays, weekends and school holidays (day and night). To supplement this during quieter months, I work as a bank support worker for adults with learning disabilities and autism. Working on the bank (0 hour contract) allows me to prioritise my I know that leaving your pets and your home in someone else’s care takes a huge amount of trust. My aim is always to make things as familiar, calm and consistent as possible for your pets while you’re away, and to give you the reassurance that they’re being well cared for. Wherever possible, I will maintain your pet’s usual routine, including their normal feeding times, walks, bedtime routines and the little habits that help them feel secure. I’m happy to administer medication, follow specialist or prescribed diets, and work with any individual care instructions you provide. For dogs, I will initially stick to walking routes and areas they already know, rather than introducing unfamiliar places straight away. Once we’ve built a relationship and I understand their personality, behaviour and recall, we can agree whether exploring further afield or walking off lead is appropriate. Building trust and a positive relationship with your pets is really important to me. I’ll take things at their pace, particularly with pets who are nervous, anxious or simply need a little longer to decide whether I’m worthy of their approval! I’m equally respectful of the fact that I’m being trusted with your home as well as your pets. I will only use or enter the areas of your home that are necessary for their care and will always aim to leave your home exactly as I found it. While you’re away, I’ll maintain regular contact and updates, including photos and messages as agreed, so you know how everyone is getting on without having to wonder or chase for information. I am fully insured for pet sitting and am very happy to provide a copy of my insurance documentation for your reassurance. Most importantly, I want you to be able to go away knowing that your pets are safe, comfortable and cared for by someone who will treat them, their routines and your home with respect.

“I highly recommend Edita, she looked after our puppy for us this weekend and has done a fantastic job. She has been kind, loving and taken her out for some lovely walks. It means a lot to trust someone with your dog, but Edita made us feel comfortable about leaving our puppy with her and it was clear to us that she’s a dog person and spent lots of time doing nice things with her. Thank you so much ❤️”

“Imogen was amazing with Fred and our reptiles! She went above and beyond for them all whilst we were away. I was nervous as we have not been away from Fred for such a long time in over a year, but she made him feel so comforted and cared for the whole time and he now clearly misses her being around”

About: I have a lifetime of experience in cat care and six years of dedicated rabbit care. Additionally, I have provided reliable dog walking and sitting services since I was 8 years old, Including teaching basic tricks and working on leash manners. I have some experience with exotics pets as I have worked with my local exotic pet refuge when I was younger. I am currently applying to university to study veterinary medicine. I do not have other work so am available most days unless something comes up. I treat all animals with respect and kindness showing them love and affection as if they were my own pet. I know how to discourage bad behaviour and follow the instructions clients request for example exercising the pets in a specific way or at a specific place.

About: I have grown up surrounded by animals and have been caring for them as long as I can remember. I come from a farming background so have lots of experience with a variety of animals and taught me how to cater to their individual needs. I also have experience with both more elderly dogs and young pups which has allowed me to understand and provide care specialised to their needs. I am an active person who enjoys spending time outdoors so would ensure your animals get all the exercise and enrichment they need. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, as I am available from the afternoon onwards on weekdays and throughout the weekend. I am organised and reliable, ensuring I have plenty of time to provide each pet with the care, attention and companionship they need while following their usual routine as closely as possible. I understand that trust is essential when caring for someone else's pet and home. I will always follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet's usual routine, and ensure they are safe, comfortable and well cared for. I will treat your home with respect, keep it secure, and provide regular updates for your peace of mind.

“Karen has done a great job with Juke. We are always concerned when we go away as Juke can be anxious and stressy . We had nothing to worry about as Karen gave us regular feedback on how well they were getting on and how Juke was being very good. Karen provided an excellent service and Juke was very relaxed when we got back. We will book another sitting when we next go away”

About: I have been a dog foster for 7years, own a black lab rescue and previously owned a rescue black cat. I am comfortable around reactive dogs and cats, all ages and animal needs. I have the ability to work from home so I can be there all day, I am very active myself so I can do multiple walks a day. I am a big believer of leaving where you arrived as it was or better than how you find it, when staying at your house caring for your four legged friends I follow the rules you set and care for your house and pets as if it were my own.

About: I am a reliable and intuitive pet sitter with a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals, having grown up with a father who was a vet. From an early age I learned not just the joy of having pets, but the responsibility that comes with properly caring for them - understanding animal behaviour, recognising subtle changes in health or mood, and appreciating the importance of routine and preventative care. Each animal has its own personality and needs, and I take time to build trust and provide calm, consistent care. As a mature and responsible mother, I am organised, dependable and respectful of both homes and routines. I understand how important peace of mind is when leaving a beloved pet, and I am committed to ensuring animals feel safe, well exercised, loved and thoroughly cared for while their owners are away. I work from home and can fit all pet care needs into a relaxed routine that works for your dog. I like to walk in the morning, after breakfast and depending on appetite often have another little perambulation in the afternoon Often it’s better for dogs to be in their own routine at home when their owners are away. Im happy to offer this service and will be with your dog/s for cuddles, feeding, walks and playtime. Please provide any details of routines you like maintained for me to implement. If home sitting doesn’t suit you, I can offer a home boarding service. I have a large home with a fenced garden and lots of fantastic countryside walks direct from my door. I have 2 friendly dogs to keep your pet company but will only take one dog into my home at any one time, so you can be assured they will get lots of love and attention. I am happy to accommodate a crate for your dog to sleep in, if that is their routine, and I am at home during the day for multiple toilet pit-stops and lots of attention.

“So pleased we found Emma. Fantastic sitter, truly cared for our Lab and home. Great communication throughout, would thoroughly recommend and will book again.”

“Cara was the perfect sitter for our slightly anxious little mini Dachshund, while we were attending a wedding. She arrived a little early, settled in with Flo very quickly and reported at the end of the night that Flo only showed signs of anxiety for a short while before settling for the rest of the afternoon & evening. I would definitely recommend Cara!”

Rebecca P.

“We had a wonderful experience with Rowena looking after our dogs. She was calm, friendly and clearly loves animals, and our dogs took to her straight away. She sent us plenty of updates and photos while we were away, which was so reassuring and allowed us to relax knowing they were happy and well cared for. It was such a comfort knowing they were in safe and caring hands. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Rowena again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

“Sarah was amazing - ran with unintentional chaos like a pro, spoilt Bernie rotten and generally treated both of us like members of her family. Just the support system I needed and a great communicator. I'm pretty sure Bernie was deeply disappointed that she wasn't a permanent addition.”
