Pet Sitting South Tyneside

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a natural love for caring for them. My childhood dream was to become a vet! Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies and large breeds to senior and unwell dogs who need a little extra patience, care and attention. I’ve also grown up with a variety of cats, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats with different needs and temperaments. I currently have a Husky and a puppy of my own, so I’m very familiar with the energy, exercise and patience that comes with having dogs at different stages of life. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow your routines and give your pet the individual care and attention they’re used to. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime, prefers a quiet cuddle, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll always do my best to make them feel safe, happy and comfortable while you’re away ✨🐾 Monday – Friday: Available after work, from the evening onwards. Saturday – Sunday: Fully available and flexible throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and arrange specific times that suit you. 🐾 I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. I’ll provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, cuddles and any other care they need. I’ll keep their space clean and send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. 🐾

About: I've always had pets, mainly cats but have also owned a husky & labrador in the past. Truly animal obsessed 😍 currently have 2 house cats (rescues). I currently work from home, wanting to get this started so I can reduce my hours and spend more time giving back to the world of fur! Whatever your pet needs can be arranged, I'm open to personalised requests based on your pets needs and will cater the service to provide the best care.

“Amy was just what we needed. Our Paddy was at ease and the drop in time was great to get him in the garden and a bit of company. Amy was on time and great with communicating. Will be using again 🙂”

About: A lover of all dogs, I will look after yours like my own. I have cared for and had a dog in my life over 30 years. I realise how precious dogs are to their owners. I currently work part time, my availability is when I don’t work, so I can focus my full attention on taking care of your dogs We have a small yard, however we are 500 yards from the seafront, where we usually take the dogs down the beach or the leas or other parks in the area.

About: I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision because I’m exactly the same with my own dog, Roo. She’s my daughter, and I would only ever leave her with someone I completely trust. That’s the standard of care I strive to provide for every pet I look after. As a professional dog walker, I hold a Level 3 qualification in Canine Behaviour and a Level 4 qualification in Canine First Aid. Combined with my hands-on experience professionally working with dogs since the age of 14, these qualifications allow me to understand canine body language, recognise signs of stress or illness, and provide safe, enriching care tailored to each dog’s individual needs. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, pet sitting during the day, or providing overnight care in your own home, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience and respect that I give Roo. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality and preferences so they feel safe, comfortable and happy while you’re away. I know how important peace of mind is, so I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos throughout my time with your pet. My priority is always their safety, wellbeing and happiness, giving you confidence that they’re in caring, knowledgeable and professional hands. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I plan my days around the pets I look after. This allows me to provide reliable walks, pet sitting and overnight stays without rushing, ensuring every dog receives the time, attention and enrichment they deserve. My own rescue dog, Roo, is at the heart of my daily routine, so I understand how important consistency, exercise and companionship are. I carefully organise my schedule to meet each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s sticking to their usual walking routine, feeding times, play sessions or simply providing company and reassurance while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves patient, attentive care, and I treat every dog as if they were a member of my own family. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my priority. I take the time to get to know every dog as an individual, understanding their routine, personality, likes, dislikes and any medical or dietary requirements, including allergies. As a professional dog walker with a Level 3 qualification in Canine Behaviour and a Level 4 qualification in Canine First Aid, I’m trained to recognise canine body language and behaviour. This allows me to assess how a dog is feeling and adapt my approach to ensure they remain relaxed, comfortable and happy throughout their time in my care. I’m experienced with crate training and understand that some dogs benefit from having a safe, familiar space to relax. I can also provide quiet, calming areas where dogs can choose to rest away from other animals if they need time to themselves. Every dog is different, and I always respect their individual needs and boundaries. I have a secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor time and share my home with my rescue dog, Roo, and my two cats. However, I appreciate that not every dog is comfortable around other animals. If your dog is nervous or prefers their own space, I can cater to their individual needs and carefully manage their environment to help them feel safe and secure. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel exactly the same about Roo. She’s a member of my family, and I provide every dog in my care with the same patience, kindness, respect and attention that I would want for my own pet. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your companion is in safe, experienced and caring hands.

“Maya was fantastic. Sent me photos and videos. She kept me updated while I was away. Would definitely recommend and I will be using her again ☺️”

“Fiona is lovely and trust worthy. We were apprehensive about leaving our home and fur babies with someone we didn't know but got a great vibe from Fiona at the meet and greet and the cats took to her quickly. We are more than happy with the care Fiona took with our pets and home and will have no reservations about using her services in the future. She administered medication, fed and watered our pets, played with them, provided daily photos, videos and updates as well as bringing our mail in safely. 10/10!”
