About: 🐾 Reliable Dog Walking You Can Trust 🐾 Hi everyone! I offer friendly, dependable dog walking tailored to your pup’s needs 🐶 Whether your dog loves long adventures, quick toilet breaks, or just some company while you’re busy, I’ve got it covered. Every walk is safe, fun, and full of care—like they’re my own. ✔️ Solo walks ✔️ Flexible times to suit you ✔️ All breeds and sizes welcome ✔️ Regular updates and photos 📸 Based locally and passionate about happy, healthy dogs 💛 Message me to book or for more info—I’d love to meet your furry friend I work three 13 hour shifts a week for the NHS (different days every week) I would love a dog of my own, but due to work it would be unfair to the dog, hence looking for a 4 legged friend to walk. I absolutely love dogs (more than people 😂) if I am caring for your dog, it will have my full love and attention. I am happy to meet first to make sure the dog likes me.

About: I remember my childhood well because it always included a beautiful dog which made our family complete. I love to walk my bros dog Murphy. I currently work part-time so plenty of time to play and walk. We have a beautiful Park and River near by so lots of fresh air and green space to enjoy. I have worked in the Health Industry to include healing mentoring and coaching. Part-time school work to include Exam Invigilaing. So I hold a DBS also. My hobbies are Yoga Aqua Bowling and lots of walks in nature. Age-Fit. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet. I have a walled garden with a gate at both ends and also a back garden. It can be a busy road so the dog wont be out alone.

About: I always have dogs in my house, my own, and from family, friends or neighbors who would leave them with me anytime needed. I'm very used to walking dogs and taking great care of them! I'm currently a stay-at-home mom, so I can take the dogs for a walk, play in the yard, and keep them happy and safe all day long. I have a fenced yard and an old fury baby - Lilica (14 years old, but very active). I also can easily keep the dogs apart if needed.

About: I have been pet sitting for almost 2 years and it has been something I fall in love with every day. I care with all the love and affection and meet each pet’s needs. I have plenty of time with your puppies. I’m just managing my kids school time which takes about 30 minutes for dropping them off and pick them up but if you dog can’t be left alone I can definitely take it with me without any problem. I have a fenced big garden so your puppy will be very safe here with a big place to play. They are allowed to go to my bed if they feel safer in that way.

About: Hi, I’m Mayara! 🐾 Pets have been a huge part of my life since day one, I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a furry friend by my side. Currently, I’m a "servant" to two very spoiled 4-year-old cats, but I’m just as happy out on a walk or playing with dogs, which I look after regularly. I know how much your pets mean to you, so my goal is to give you total peace of mind. I’m not here to just "watch" them, instead I’m here to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and truly cared for while you’re away. You can travel knowing your precious friends are in the hands of a lifelong animal lover who maintains meticulous attention to detail and treats every pet with the same affection I give my own. I'll provide food, water, clean the litter box, and entertain your cats with toys—following whatever routine you have with them. I can also send daily photos and videos so you can relax, knowing they are well cared for. I have experience giving pets oral medication (though not injectable). I'm happy to offer a free meet & greet so you can get to know me, and also give you a chance to share your pet's routine with me, ensuring I take care of them in the best way possible. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time for looking after your pet whenever you need, either for a trip away or for daycare. I live in a flat, with a fence backyard. I live near a park which I love to take dogs for walks. I have 2 cats, which most of the time will be sleeping.

About: I've been fortunate enough to grow up around dogs. Our 15 year old Border Terrier unfortunately passed recently and we have a 8 year old Working cocker. I regularly looked after our dogs and therfore have plenty experience with high energy working breeds. Particularly Border terriers and their escape artist tricks! I'm familiar with caring for a dog requiring regular medication or who has anxiety issues. I will provide a loving and caring environment for your furry family member as I would with my own family pets. I'm currently finishing my masters degree and I'm at home the majority of the week. My schedule is pretty flexible so any dogs will have plenty of opportunities for walks on the beach or park and stimulating games. I live in an ideal location within walking distance to Longsands beach, Northumberland park and traffic free walking routes. My flat is ground floor and I have a secure backyard for which I have sole use of. Your dog will be allowed free roam of the flat. My flat is a quiet environment so is ideal for nervous dogs. Due to my schedule I'm able to walk during quieter times of the day. I'm happy to go running with a dog if that is something that is suitable or spends a few hours on the beach playing fetch. I'm pretty active so will always ensure your dog has plenty of exercise opportunities. I will only look after 1 dog or dogs from the same family at a time. If your dog like company I can also introduce them to our working cocker who loves to play.

About: When taking care of your pets I will ensure to stick to any schedules and provide great care of your pets. I will also play with and help train your dog(s) (I cannot train cat's or small animals). My dog wakes me up at 7 but I tend to only go for a short walk with him and go back to bed and fully wake up around 9am (can wake up earlier) and feed my dog around this time and also take him out for a potty break. I play with him and train him taking him on a few more walks. His last potty break is at 10:30pm and I will sleep at 12am I have two enclosed yards and I am crate training my own dog and can provide crate training if needed. I make sure to keep my home as clean as I can to ensure that there's nothing that my dog (or any other animal) can ingest that they shouldn't have

About: Hi, I’m Stephen – a reliable, and passionate dog walker who treats every dog like my own. With many years of being a responsible dog owner myself I have decided to take it one step further and become a dog walker/sitter. I go beyond just walks – I provide safe, engaging, and enriching experiences tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether your pup or dog is high-energy, shy, or a senior needing a gentler pace, I’m confident in my ability to connect with them and make every outing a positive one. What sets me apart? Consistency, communication, and a genuine love for dogs. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and preferences. You’ll get updates every walk, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in capable, caring hands. As a self-employed professional, I have the flexibility to build my schedule around what matters most – caring for dogs. This means I’m available during the day for regular walks, last-minute bookings, or consistent routines that work for you and your dog. My flexible hours allow me to give each dog the time, attention, and energy they deserve, without being rushed or overbooked. Because I set my own schedule, you can count on me for dependable availability and responsive communication – whether it's daily walks, weekend outings, or midday check-ins. When your dog stays with me, they’re part of the family. I’ve made my home a cozy, dog-friendly space where dogs or pups can feel safe, relaxed, and totally at ease. Whether it’s a comfy spot to nap or a secure garden to explore, I’ve got everything set up with their comfort and safety in mind. I stick to their routines, keep a close eye on how they’re settling in, and always give updates so you’re never left wondering how they’re doing. Trust means everything to me — and I treat every dog like they’re my own.

About: Hi! I’m a calm, friendly dog lover based near the coast in North Shields. I’m responsible, reliable, and really attentive. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe and settled. I’ve raised my own dog since I found her at just 3 months old, and I’ve done all of her training myself. Because of that, I’ve spent a lot of time learning about positive training, routines, and what dogs need to feel happy and secure. I’m great at reading a dog’s mood, whether they’re full of zoomies and energy or more of a sleepy mood. I always focus on safety, comfort, and keeping to your dog’s usual routine so they feel at ease while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is in really good hands. I work from home/ am currently in between roles so I can walk your dog whenever suits! I don’t mind popping in or having a mid afternoon walk. Happy to be specific with timings to help if you are in the office. I will take your lead on whatever you are comfortable with in terms of walks and care and act accordingly - eg lead or no lead. Also happy to do quieter routes if that better suits.

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.

About: I’ve been a dog-carer for 8 years and have good knowledge and confidence for our canine babies! I was brought up with dogs and other pets too; I’m all round an animal lover and seem to have created my adult life around this! I originally trained in behaviour therapy and counselling at university 10 years ago and now moved on to nursing, which I will qualify in this summer. I love animals and look after them as much as I can in my spare time. At home I have an elderly cat and 4 chickens. I share a collie dog part time also. I currently work part time and choose my own hours. My daughter is in school. My family and I look after dogs regularly and we have our own too. I’m a very active and healthy person, knowledgable of walks to suit any dog in the area and my home is very spacious with a fenced yard. I am a regular attender to dog festivals, training seminars and canine health. I am passionate for our canine babies and look forward to providing the best care so you can get the time you need! I have a very friendly collie who is in perfect t health and is neutered. My back yard is fenced and home is spacious. We take daily walks in open spaces for dogs to explore and play. At home we play stimuli games and I have dog puzzles too. I have a daughter who is in school but loves dogs too and already has a great understanding. She has been around dogs her entire life as I dog sit, board and walk dogs for friends and family. The health and happiness of the dog is priority and I make sure they’re kept to the best standards.

Colette was excellent. She proposed a free meet up before hand so that we could both assess the suitability of the other which I really appreciated. It was great to know that Thea was going to get along with her and Reggie. She sent regular photos and clearly tried to follow the ‘structure’ we’d asked her to follow for Thea’s eating and, critically, sleeping. Colette was friendly and confident and clearly knew her stuff which put me at ease. Reggie, despite being 5 x the weight of Thea, looks to have got on really well and is a gentle giant despite his own young years. We will absolutely be happy to use Colette again.

This is our second booking with Pip and we would highly recommend him. Our two labradoodles are quite excitable on walks but he handled them really well and gave them lots of attention and play time. His communication was excellent we got lots of pics and messages throughout the day and when we picked them up they were happy and content. Thank you very much!
