“We had a fantastic experience with Veronika. She came over for a pre-visit before our holiday and was incredibly helpful, taking the time to answer all of our questions. While we were away, she took fantastic care of our dog and kept the house beautifully clean and tidy. Her communication was amazing, and we loved receiving the regular photo and video updates. We felt totally at peace knowing everything was in such good hands. We have already quite happily booked her again for our next break!”

About: Ive always had dogs, so im very comfortable around them and with all ages as ive helped raise my one of my dog’s puppies. Im currently a student with 2 full days off college and a further 2 days part time as I am nearing the end of my education. I have little commitments during the weekends. I am an active person who enjoys walks and getting out in nature so I can give your dogs whatever lengths of walks they may usually need. I make sure all animals are cared and have water and have gone to the toilet regularly.

“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.”

“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”

“Tianna was wonderful! Came back home to a very calm and relaxed dog. I really appreciate Tianna took the time to come and meet me and Ottie all very last minute, and I was so reassured hearing all about her animals and all those she’s looking after! ⭐”

“Imogen is the perfect dog sitter. We felt so confident leaving her to look after our dogs and home. She kept us updated with photos and messages which meant we could relax and enjoy our break, knowing that all was well.”

About: I love animals very much, and most of them never refuse petting and treats; for such cases, I always have long artificial nails on my left hand, and treats are kept in my desk drawer. I understand perfectly that every living creature has its own character, interests, and needs, and I am happy to satisfy them. Dogs first appeared in my house about 4 years ago, 2 Labrador mixes, aged 7 and 12. My mom took them from a shelter where we used to volunteer, walking, grooming, and photographing the dogs. In general, we spent time with them in every way possible, helping them socialize and find a home. By that time, I already had 2 cats and 2 rabbits living with me, and we also periodically took in 1-2 cats for treatment or temporary care. Then I moved in with my boyfriend, who has 2 wonderful dogs: a European husky and a Shepherd mix. I spent a lot of time with them since I wasn't working; we walked for at least 4 hours every day. When needed, I bathed and brushed them, never forgetting to treat them with snacks. They would take every free moment to get as close to me as possible so I wouldn't stop petting them. I looked after my friend's cat at his home while he and his wife were on vacation. I followed all recommendations and regularly sent photos and videos of the happy cat. I also occasionally go to help walk dogs and socialize puppies, giving them warmth and attention. Most of the time I spend at home writing a book and drawing, but for that I need inspiration, and every minute that it is absent, I am happy to devote to walks, games, and any other whims of your pet. I would be happy to follow all recommendations for caring for your pet. In case you wish to leave him/her with me, there is a guest sofa, as well as a place for a bed, blanket, or cage if the pet needs one (I do not have my own cage). From the room, there is always access to exit into a fenced garden, and there is also a wonderful park for walks right across from the house. A cat and a rabbit also live with me, but if your pet is not happy with company, I have the possibility to separate them from each other.

“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 ❤️”

About: I have taken care of dogs for way over 8 years for friends, family and local people to me. From walking to bathing, to feeding and cuddles. I love it all, and love spending overnight time with my furry friends I am currently working part time so have a lot of time for my fury friends, with availability to do overnight stays any days of the week. I am very cautious of keeping my fury friends in sight at all times and granted their and their owners wishes for their routines, as well as ensure they get plenty of fun exercise and cuddles

I'm Aaron, a military man, with a fascination with the world's perfect adorable little killing machine, I'm a very humourous individual however extremely professional when It comes to care, I love cats, they bring me great joy even if all they do is sit there, at a distance judging my life choices. I'm also a photographer by trade and would love to take some photos of any kitties I have consent to, I frequently visit cat cafes in order to get my photography/cat fix. I leave for work early, and come home around evening meal time, I can change my timings and carry on work from home, to suit the cats needs. When I'm with my partner who has our cats, our home is full of fun things for them to do, for example ignoring the nice cat toy and just play with the box it came in, cat trees, fish toys and other bits and pieces now make up the aesthetic of our home.

“Thank you Danielle for looking after Gracie so well, for leaving the house clean and tidy and watering my tomatoes! It was good to meet you and I hope we’ll see you again.”

About: My family had a boxer dog called Charlie before I was born until I was 6. My grandparents also had a dog until two years ago, who I walked and played with. My neighbour also would being their cocker-spaniel Poppy to our house a few weekends a year, for us to look after, including taking on regular walks, out to the toilet, etc. I would like to petsit a few weekends a year, probably once a month, and am happy to travel to a variety of places for this. I will ensure the safety of your pet at all times, ensuring I follow the instructions you provide to fulfil the individual needs of your pet. I have high attention to detail, and have worked in environments where responsibility and caring for others is of extreme importance (I worked in a nursery for 3 months over the summer 2021).

“Having never left our dogs before we were very nervous about going away but we needn’t have worried! Karen looked after our dogs so well and I’m not sure they even missed us that much which was great really. Would highly recommend Karen and will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

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.

About: I have grown up with pets all my life and currently have two dogs, a rabbit and axolotl and lots of fish! I have experience walking and looking after multiple dogs simultaneously and am very proficient in training techniques and more than able to provide any specific care requirements. I have looked after dogs of all breeds and ages as well as being able to manage dogs with all kinds of behavioural traits. I have a full clean driving licence so am able to travel to and from clients houses with ease. I would be honoured to spend time with your fury friends and shower them with love and affection. I know that many people may also have other pets! I have fish and a rabbit so I am also well versed in the care requirements for other fury friends and creatures! I work 3 days a week. I am available for drop in visits and for short & long term stays. I have a car and am happy to drive in order to fulfill requirements. I would preferably travel to the owners home as I have pets of my own but I am able to travel to the necessities location for the sitting.

About: Hi there! My name is Rachel, I’m a 29 year old working professional based in Taunton and I live with my partner in a fully detached house with a large secure enclosed garden, giving dogs plenty of safe space to play and explore. I’ve grown up around both cats and dogs all my life, and featured in my photo is our family dog Coco, a mini Pomeranian who I absolutely adore. I regularly dog sit for friends over weekends and love taking their dogs out for walks and adventures in the countryside. I enjoy being outdoors and discovering new walking spots, so your dog will get lots of exercise, attention and companionship. I work from home on Mondays, meaning I’m around throughout the day for walks, toilet breaks, feeding and company. Although we don’t currently have pets living with us, our home is very pet friendly and calm, making it a great environment for dogs to feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m available on weekends and love spending time outdoors on long walks and adventures with dogs. Most of my friends have dogs and I love going for Saturday morning coffee and dog walks with them. I also work from home on Mondays, so I’m around all day for walks, feeding, toilet breaks and plenty of company. Your dog will get lots of attention, playtime and care throughout their stay! Your dog will be cared for in a calm, loving home with a large secure enclosed garden where they can safely play and explore. I currently don’t have pets, so your dog will have plenty of space and attention. I always make sure dogs are well looked after, exercised, comfortable and treated like part of the family!
