Fiona has been so amazing with our girls. They’ve really come to love her and we’re so well looked after 🥰 We couldn’t recommend her enough. We got daily photos and videos which made us feel at very ease everyday we were away from them. Couldn’t be more happy :)

Antonia was an exceptional sitter for our sweet Bella. We had to book VERY LAST MINUTE for dog walking and Antonia was able to accomodate our early drop off of keys. Communication was GREAT, she was very fast in replying and I received so many wonderful pictures of their walk. Couldn't recommend Antonia enough, we will definitely book her AGAIN in the future!!!

I have known Michelle since 2001 and can honestly say she is definitely an animal lover! She has 5 dogs and 3 rescue parrots and in previous years has rescued dogs and kept them until they passed away and has also had cats etc. Michelle is extremely trustworthy and wouldn’t let anyone down. She will honour of her way to help anyone with anything.

I can’t recommend Alex enough! She’s one of the most reliable, kind-hearted, and attentive people I know — especially when it comes to dogs. Whether it’s walking a high-energy pup or keeping a close eye on a more laid-back dog, Alex has a natural way of making them feel comfortable and loved. She’s incredibly responsible, always on time, and treats every dog like her own. If you’re looking for someone you can truly trust with your furry family member, Alex is the one!

Ellen looked after my cat while I was away for a week. My cat is usually very shy and scared of strangers but Ellen was very patient with her and she warmed up very quickly! I got many lovely photos and updates which put my mind at ease throughout the trip. I’d definitely use Ellen’s services again and would recommend her to anyone looking for cat/dog care!!

James dog walking service has quickly become a key part of my routine and without the help of his work, I would really struggle to work the hours I do throughout the week. His patience with both my dogs is professional and personable. He takes the time to understand the personalities and needs of both my dogs and understands that they require a different approach to which he adapts this to the time he spends with them to suit their needs. I would genuinely struggle without the help of James and I am extremely grateful for the work he does for my family, he is a pivotal part of my weekly schedule and knowing that my dogs are in safe hands makes me feel at complete ease. I would recommend James to anyone who is looking for someone to take on a dog walking service, I would struggle so much without him. Brilliant guy and great with my dogs. 10/10

About: Cat sitting + Clinical researcher - Newcastle upon Tyne, around Newcastle upon Tyne city centre till Howdon/Wallsend, UK Cats have been a part of my life since I was 11 years old, and my love for them has only grown over the years. Since moving to Newcastle, UK, I’ve helped friends care for their cats, and in 2017, I adopted my own beloved black cat who has been my loyal companion ever since. Through my experience, I’ve encountered & managed a diverse range of cat care situations, including: ✔ Feeding difficulties & picky eaters ✔ Managing constipation & digestive issues ✔ Post-surgery aftercare & recovery support ✔ Providing comfort, cuddles & companionship Cats are more than just pets to me, they are a fundamental part of my life... As a devoted cat lover, I understand their behaviours, emotions & needs. Being a cat sitter isn’t purely a job; it’s a passion... With a genuine heart for feline care, I am committed to ensuring every cat feels safe, comfortable & well cared for in my presence. As a dedicated cat sitter, I understand that every cat has a unique personality & their comfort, health is my top priority... Some cats are independent, while others need extra attention & reassurance - especially when faced with a new person. I take the time to build trust, ensuring each cat feels relaxed & at ease in my care. 🐾Tailored Care for Every Cat🐾 Clear communication with owners is essential to providing the best possible care. Whether your cat needs feeding, fresh water replenishment litter box maintenance, cuddles, grooming, medication administration (including injections), or close observation, I will follow your instructions carefully, thoroughly & attentively. Each visit usually lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your requests & your cat’s needs. 🐾Reliable & Transparent Service🐾 To give you peace of mind while you're away, I can send regular photos and videos - as many as you’d like! You can always stay updated & reassured about your cat’s well-being. 🐾Flexible & Trustworthy🐾 I am a permanent resident of Newcastle upon Tyne with a clear DBS check, ensuring reliability & trustworthiness. I am always open to learning and adapting to your cat’s specific needs. Any special requests, let’s discuss them...I’ll do my best to accommodate. Price is negotiable depending on travel time, requested timing & specific needs!!! Your cat’s happiness & well-being are my top priority. I’m here to provide loving, professional care. Let’s chat about how I can help... It depends. There will be a discussion with clients. Sometimes I work remotely, sometimes I am not. There will be the timetable for me in advance for clients to check prior to their decision to contact me. Alternatively, please contact me by email directly. We will schedule a meeting for the pet care. I am happy to cover all the areas in Newcastle upon Tyne. Different cat has different personality and behaviour towards loneliness and facing a stranger, even different attitudes towards female and male. Communicating with cat owners is also quite important to know how to take care of their cats and how to max my help. I hope every cat is the most comfortable around me. As long as owners tell me in brief or detail what treatments and services you need from me, I will let you know if I can do it or not, I will try and learn as much as I can to provide my service based on your cats' needs as my responsibility. By following the owner's instruction, I spend 30 - 40 mins/each visit with cats who need daily feeding, cuddling, combing, medication administration or/and injections and observation. Photos & videos are available to send to owners as needed.

Rebekah is an exceptional young lady who shows great strength of character at all times, she is very friendly and has an absolute love of all animals , her experience of being brought up in a very busy household of animals lovers and being surrounded by lots of dogs , her parents are huge animal lovers and they are successful in the dog world, having shown their own dogs and own boarding kennels. Rebekah connects so well with dogs and cats and spends all of her free time walking her dogs and day to day care of them, and she puts the pets needs first being highly responsible. I would highly Recommend Rebekah to care for your pets as she is the only one I do trust with my own pets, as she has plenty of common sense and she will form a huge bond with your pets.

Olivia is one of the best dog sitters and walker I know and I thoroughly recommend her to anyone considering her. She has taken my dog charlie out on lots of walks for me at various times of the day, because he is nervous the first time she met him she let him come up to her and took it very slow. She built up his trust and now he is ecstatic to see her each time she comes and now he only barks out of excitement. She has also looked after charlie over the weekends where she stayed over at mine since he can’t be left alone I came back to no mess from either of them and I received several updates on how he was doing throughout the days I was gone. I’ve had the best experiences and will definitely keep getting her to watch Charlie and any other pets I get.
