“Vinnie had a lovely stay with Brigitte who looked after him with great care. He had lots of super walks and we received great communications throughout his stay. Brigitte was warm and affectionate with Vinnie and we felt reassured knowing he was in such good hands.”
About: I had a cat when I was little. I had a cockapoo 15 to 26 and miss him loads. Just resigned from my job so I’m free most of the time for same day bookings but better to have some notice in advance. Absolutely love pets and can help train if needed :) Love getting outside for walks but also a big fan of lounging on the sofa for a cuddle! Have Henrietta Park right by me and will go for adventures! Have super comfy sofas, not a super busy flat so it’s a nice calm environment. I love to get more than 15k steps in a day so it’s always best to have a companion! I miss having my dog around so it’s nice to have a 4 legged friend.
“Joseph looked after my Labrador Dougie overnight & we met up for a meet & greet a couple of days beforehand. I noticed that Dougie took to Joseph straight away & was happy in his company. Joseph is really good at communicating quickly & sending updates. I would have no hesitation in rebooking.”
“Francesca came to the rescue when someone cancelled last minute, for which we are very grateful! We were sent videos which was lovely and Trevor was clearly having lots of fun. Would definitely book again.”
“Manognya did a wonderful job of looking after Guimauve. He was really happy to see her and had a wonderful time walking and being fussed on the sofa. Manognya is a really great dog sitter and we can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“Gus had a lovely time with Jessica, who walked, played and cuddled him to his heart's consent. I got regular pupdates, and drop off and pick up was easy. We are really glad we have someone in the area we can completely rely on.”
“Claudia was fantastic at looking after Yahoo. She took care to find out our dog’s routine, likes and dislikes. She took him on lots of walks and gave us updates and photos! She is very responsive to text messages and we completely trusted her with our dog. She is an excellent dog sitter and will definitely be rebooking with her!”
“Winnie seemed to have had a great time with Hayley and her family and they ensured her needs were met. She stayed overnight and was very fond of them, I would recommend them!”
About: I’ve grown up loving animals and in a household full of cats. My family was even specialized in breeding rabbits, guinea pigs, ducks, geese and chicks! I had a lovely Yorkshire terrier, Meggie, for 16 amazing years until 3 years ago. I also regularly dog sit for some of my closest friends on a semi regular basis, so I am used to different types of dogs and needs. I go on walks with them, feed them and play with them. I am comfortable with any special instructions you might have for your loved pet. I have also done long stay house sitting for families with feline members. And I am currently regularly taking care of two kittens for one of my friends as well. I am currently taking a gap year to concentrate on renovating my bungalow, so any animal company is more than a welcome distraction. The main bulk has now been done, so there is nothing dangerous for a pet that would need to stay here. I will make them feel right at home! I’m currently renovating my bungalow, so I can be very flexible and give your pet/s the attention and care they need, as well as have plenty of time for walks and play time. I have a large garden fenced, but it is also currently connected to my driveway, however if this is a problem and I am told in advance, I can make arrangements such as 10m leads. Whilst renovating, the big bulk of things is currently finished, so there is nothing dangerous around the house that will harm the animals.
About: I create connections with all animals of all ages easily. I have pride in my relationship with animals and how much love I have for them. My family dog has been left in my own care since I was 14, taken care of multiple cats and used “borrow my doggy” multiple times in the past year. I am currently a part-time supervisor and attend university during term time. My hours are flexible as I work in hospitality and many of my lecturers are online. I have plenty of time to be with your furry friend, take them out and be company when you need. I live in a 5th floor flat with no garden, however easy access to areas to use the toilet. I live with one other person.
About: Canadian/Aussie Pet Sitter Newish to England here to help with loving your doggo's in your absence! My Story: I was the owner of a beautiful Cavoodle, Miley, for 15 years, she soul shatteringly passed away in Oct 2023 and to heal I started to dog sit in my neighborhood, a daily fur fix and being able to give love to a furry friend was incredibly healing. In December I took some time to heal further and booked a trip to visit friends in Bath, I loved it so much and when I returned to my empty home, I decided I wanted to make the move over. The universe must of been listening because my employer of 8 years made my position redundant, and I took that as the final sign that my time was up in Australia, and it was time to start a new life for myself in England. My Experience: I specialize in anxious doggo's that need full time company, and extra love and cuddles, I care for every pup as if they are my own and all of my clients I started beautiful relationships with and became one of their "hooman's", so much so that before I left Aus I had a farewell puppy party at the pub where I could say goodbye to all the beautiful furry souls that Miley sent to heal me! So now I'm on the hunt for my next furry friends! I have experience with all doggos big and small ranging from 3kg - 65KG (Yup one of my fav clients was a 6-month-old Tibetan sweetheart) Available most days and weekends. I work as local store manager in menswear and have sunday mondays off, my partner Andrew who is also a dog lover and has grown up his whole life with a dog works from home 4 days during the week so we are a 2 for 1 doggy sitter duo to help with availability. We are completely open to keeping to the dog's pace, from long walks and fetch for high energy border collies and working breeds, to cuddles and naps for an elderly poodle.
About: Having grown up with dogs in my family and gone on to work in professional kennels, I have hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I recently left my full-time job and as a result have flexibility to provide walks, day care and overnight stays. My aim is to provide a genuine alternative to kennels or large daycare, with a fun, and loving environment where I can give individual attention. I enjoy being active and genuinely love getting out for long walks every day, so your dog will never be short of adventure, fresh air, and exercise. I also have experience working with dogs who have anxiety or behavioural difficulties. I have a flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. I also have a car which is set up for transporting dogs safely, and I am happy to provide pick up or drop offs. I live in house with an enclosed back garden. This provides a great environment for dogs to play. Likewise, inside the house there are various dog beds and toys!
“Thanks so much Ben for looking after Henry again, he obvisoulsy loves coming to stay with you and it's great for us to be able to go away knowing he's in such good hands. It's clear to see how much you love dogs. If you want to go away and relax in the knowelege your beloved dog is safe and well cared for, we would highly recommend Ben”
“Booth had a lovely time with Natasha and her family. We were kept up to date and received photographs and videos reassuring us that Booth was having a lovely time. It was obvious that he really bonded with Natasha and her family and enjoyed his stay. We would not hesitate to use Natasha again and would highly recommend her pet sitting services.”

“Faboulous as always! Sophie is super reliable, tidy and the cats are always chilled and happy on our return. Thank you again, already booked for our next couple of trips :) ”
About: I have been around cats for my entire life as my grandmother had many many cats until recently. In the past few months I have cat-sit a 2 cat household with a kitten just over one year old. The oldest cat I have been around was 16, dead and blind. I care about all animals and love spending time playing, relaxing and being in their company.
“Smaranda looked after our cat at short notice, she was completely reliable, unphased about giving him his medicine and obviously has a way with cats as he took to her straight away. Couldn’t have asked for more.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life, I was born into a house with cats and have been raised looking after them, not only have I looked after my own cats I have also been responsible for looking after family, friends and neighbours cats
About: I have always had cats in my home and have developed a strong understanding of their body language and behaviour. I have particular experience with anxious and nervous cats, and I understand the time, patience, and gentle approach needed to earn their trust. I have a calm, caring, and loving presence, which I believe helps cats feel safe, secure, and relaxed in my company. I am happy to work at each cat's own pace, ensuring they feel comfortable and well cared for while you're away.
“Kenna is fantastic. She makes me feel so at ease leaving our 6 month old puppy. She keeps his routine and implements current training! Her communication is second to none and the pup dates are always an added bonus!”
About: I have taken care and entertained cats ever since I can remember. I have also informally looked after cats that belong to family, friends, but also stray cats that would live in my neighborhood. I am currently helping a cat which comes to my home every day, giving them plenty of love, play and comfort. Although I do not have any professional experience, I have been with cats my whole life and have look after them while their owners have been away flr days at a time. Thank you for reading!
“Renata was easy to make arrangements with and looked after our two cats very well while we were on holiday for a week. She also shared photos with us daily, so that we could see that the cats were staying happy and healthy!”
“Lesley is great with my cats. She is responsive and punctual. From the photos I can tell they really liked her company. I really appreciate that she took care of them while I was away. Thanks!”
About: Through my volunteering with animal welfare, I’ve worked with cats who are shy, anxious, or recovering from difficult backgrounds. I’m skilled at building trust slowly, respecting boundaries, and providing the right mix of attention, care, and routine.
About: As a 60 year old retiree I have 46 years of experience of dogs since getting my first dog when I was 14. I have constantly had dogs ever since, all rescues and mostly from puppies. I'm experienced in basic training and will be very happy to keep up your training routine as necessary. Dogs mean the world to me, and I'll treat your dog like my own. I keep myself fit and and can take your dog on any length of walk, short or long. I have now retired so have time and flexibility. I have a dog of my own. He's a rescue and a little timid so I wouldn't bring him on a walk with your dog unless you particularly wanted your dog to be socialised I have a fenced in garden and am more than happy to bring your dog to my house or care for them in your home.
About: I have 5 granddogs, 2 grandcats, 2 grandpigs, 2 goddogs and numerous canine and cat nephews and nieces (not blood of course, they are the furry kids of my friends). They’re family 😁 Usually only available between June and January as I live in Colombia January to May. However do feel free to ask, especially if the dates that you require are close to the limits. If I'm here I can adapt my schedule. I work remotely as a geeky historical writer, so can be pretty much anywhere and what can be better than doing that whilst making new furry friends. I treat them as family, except when the sharing of food is the question. I don’t share food, just like my English goddog, Percy, doesn’t share his bone. With regard to communication - the number listed is now obsolete - my new number is Colombian because I live in Colombia for six months each year - Unfortunately Rover does not have a Colombia option. So best to email me or communicate through Rover.
“Absolute Star - Cat did a phenomenal job with Louis, responding with great care and efficiency when Louis became unwell with a tummy upset during his time with her. She looked after him as if he was her own beloved and I cannot recommend her highly enough. There aren’t enough stars available to capture the full extent of our gratitude and now, happily, Louis is fully recovered and I think he can’t wait to see Cat again so he can thank her”
“Gizem has been wonderful for our 1 year-old cat Monti. This was his first stay at someone else's house, so we knew he would be frightened, especially at the beginning. When he hid under the bed during the first night and meowed for a long time, Gizem's friendly nature encouraged him to come out and get some snacks. He started exploring his new surrounding and was eating as normal. Gizem also took Monti for walks, which he enjoys a lot, so I was grateful, he could still continue some of the routines when we were away. I really liked regular updates what Monti was doing and how much he was eating. The updates were sent throughout the day with photos attached, which reassured me he was fine and feeding well. I can strongly recommend Gizem as a brilliant pet sitter!”

“Thank you so much for looking after Floki. It was my first time leaving him with a dog sitter and I can honestly say Erin and Andrew were both absolutely brilliant made me feel so at ease and kept me up-to-date the whole day with photos. Floki was so well looked after and was very happy. I honestly can’t thank you enough for taking such great care of my little boy.”
“We visited Bath for a day and left our dog, Nymeria, with Francesca. She was very pleasant to communicate with, and she took a good care of Nymeria. Nymeria would love to hang out with Francesca more if we visit Bath again.”
“Honey had a great time with Lesley and her family, lots of attention and love. She asked good questions to ensure she knew how to best care for Honey, and was very kind to send me photos and videos throughout the day. We'll definitely be calling on Lesley again! Thank you!”
“Fantastic sitter! This was a last-minute booking, and she responded late in the evening, which was a huge help. She was warm, friendly, and communicative throughout, and was also very accommodating when I needed to change the drop-off time. Oscar was well looked after, and I'd highly recommend her.”
“We were on holiday in the area and needed to go somewhere dogs couldn't go, so contacted Ben. He was lovely and took good care of Casper for day care. Thank you Ben, I'm sure we'll be back. 😊”
“Tim took great care of our doggy. He's back home looking tired and happy. Tim was really easy to communicate with, sent good pictures and kept us up to date throughout the day. Thank you!”
About: I've lived with and cared for animals since childhood and have always had a deep love for animals. After recently losing a beloved pet, I'm keen to share my home and affection with furry companions again. Dog sitting allows me to provide a loving, safe, and caring environment while helping owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. Every animal is treated like part of the family, with plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime, and care tailored to their needs. I have lifelong experience of caring for pets including, small fur animals, tortoises and large breed dogs. You will experience a home: which is lively and fun. I will be the main caregiver of the pets but this is a family home. I love animals so you can be confident that there will be plenty of attention around the clock. I spend a lot of time outdoors in nature, enjoying long walks which could accommodate your dog. I also enjoy cosy nights in where cuddles on the sofa are prioritised for cats and dogs. I will be the main caregiver for the animals coming into our home, but they will be adored by us all. My garden is secure with fences. It is large with plenty of space to chill outdoors. I live close to a large park, a cemetery (our dog loved it here) and a cycle track for walks nearby.

About: I've had dogs as pets and taken care of other dogs since the age of 6, I don't want to get another full time pet but I miss the companionship terribly. I'm no Caeser Milan but I feel dogs respect my authority and temperment despite the fact Im such a softy! I am self employed and work from a home office. I am available 7 days a week and will try and accommodate anyone - even last minute! I'm fortunate that I can dictate my work hours so I can spend as little or as much time as your dog needs. We can energetically play in the garden and go for numerous walks or if they're older and just need a little company they can sit and be stroked all day. I have a large garden, grass and heavily shaded areas. The lawn is surrounded by hedges rather than fences though and deer do manage to find there way in during the night so your dog would never be in the garden unattended unless pre-determined they were the type with good recall. For those inquisitive dogs determined to escape I have a 10m lead! The house is warm and cosy with wood floors. Though strict on request I'm equally more than happy for a dog to sleep anywhere if it makes them happier.
“Thanks to shniele for looking after our puppy during the heatwave. She provided really great care & communication all day. She even treated our puppy to our first ever doggy ice cream. We’ll definitely book again :)”
“Thanks Sarah for taking good care of Maple. We booked Sarah last minute when we were on our holiday in Bath. Sarah responded quickly and looked after Maple when we were out for dinner. Maple was content and sleepy after we picked her up. Maple was also happy with Sarah and Maple was lying on her belly which is a sign of a relaxed Maple - shows how at ease my pup was being with Sarah. When we’re next in Bath, we will seek out Sarah again - thank you!”
“Richanne is lovely and her flat is situated in heart of Stratford new-built residential area with private courtyard which is more than I expected. She's able to satisfy my long line of questions and go along with how to manage my puppy who has severe separation anxiety. Will be booking with her again.”
About: Hi :) I’ve always loved dogs. I grew up with a mini poodle and now have a very sweet cockapoo named Cooper. I’ve also regularly looked after friends’ dogs, so I’m very used to caring for different breeds and personalities. Because I work from home, your dog will have company and attention throughout the day. I only take care of one dog at a time alongside my own, so they get plenty of focus and care. Alongside daily countryside walks, I make sure dogs are mentally stimulated with games, treat searches, and plenty of indoor play and affection. I know how hard it can be to leave your beloved pet, so I always send regular photo updates to help you feel relaxed and reassured while you’re away. I follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, and bedtime habits. I treat every dog as if they were my own and I genuinely love being around dogs more than I do people. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home, so I’m present and available throughout the day. My own dog is already part of my daily life, so walks, feeding, play, and attention are naturally built into my schedule. Overall, pet care is a very natural part of my routine, and I make sure each dog feels calm, comfortable, and included in the day to day rhythm of the home. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and settled from the moment they arrive. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, and any specific instructions from their owner. While they may be left alone briefly at times, it is never for long periods, and I always ensure they are comfortable and settled before leaving them.
“Brigitte looks after my two dogs so my partner and I could visit a Bath museum during our trip to Bath. Brigitte is very friendly, and my girls seem to have fun during daycare. thank you!”
About: I’ve always had pets in my family growing up and as I’ve grown, my love for dogs and animals has grown also! My friends have always trusted me with their pets whilst on vacation and I’ve always been thrilled to give their loved animals the best experience and a big amount of love while they’re away. I have a big space and fenced garden to have lots of play time and fun! I’m a university student with a flexible schedule outside of my classes, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting during most weekdays and weekends, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding routines, medication, walks or playtime. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, secure and loved while in my care. I’ll also keep your home clean, tidy and respected if I’m caring for your pet there. If your baby is with me, we have a large fenced garden to play around in, as well as many nearby parks!

“Tim was great, and our dog adored him immediately. We felt fully confident leaving our be to excitable and sometimes nervous girl in his care, she looked very happy in her walk photos. Will book him again!”
About: I've been caring for cats and dogs for the past 7 years and genuinely love being part of a pet's life. Over the years, I've looked after friends' cats and regularly cared for my parents' dog, giving me experience with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone else's beloved companion very seriously. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I offer house sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits throughout Bath and Bristol. You can expect reliable care, regular updates, and plenty of photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and providing the loving, attentive care they deserve! I work from home 3 days of the week so I can easily do house visits during the week - Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays! Whether this may be for playing, feeding or simply giving your little fur baby a little bit of company. I can also take your dog out for a walk during my lunch breaks and play tug of war (the real way to a dog’s heart)! I am also available weekends, I simply want to care for your pet in the best way possible :) As I live in a flat, I won’t be able to take care of your pets in my own home but I am more than happy to do house sits, check ins, and daily walks - whatever works best for you!
About: I've always grown up in a household with pets, I've had a Staffie and a cat since age 3 and now have a Staffie cross to at home. I see animals more like your children than your pets, they're a part of the family, and so I understand the nervousness of leaving them with another. In previous summer's, I've spent six months working around animals at a boarding kennel 5 days a week and so have learnt a lot about looking after our furry friends :) I am currently at university studying Acting, but have always had a passion for animals, as well as missing my pets from back home. My uni schedule can be pretty packed, but I'm quite flexible, being able to do most evenings as well as Wednesdays, Fridays from the afternoon onwards, and weekends. When pet sitting previously at the owner's house I have asked to have a list of any special requirements your pet may have which I can refer to if needs be. I will always stick to whatever rules you have for your pet (e.g. not being allowed in certain rooms/on furniture) and would appreciate a list of any specific commands you use so as not to confuse your pup :)
“Cosmo loved Ayla the minute they met. Ayla helped us out with a last minute request and was a great communicator, sending many pictures of a very happy dog :) I appreciated she took the time to understand Cosmo’s behavior needs, and was sensitive and understanding to some of her reactivity and confidence building needs too. Will absolutely be requesting Ayla's help again!”
“Madison was extremely conscientious and clearly cared about my dogs (and even my cat) when she provided dog walking services while I was away. Always timely and detailed in report cards, and with great photos to go with the write up, she was very responsive to any messages and gave me perfect peace of mind. I would definitely hire Madison again and would recommend her highly to a friend.”
“Joe was absolutely fantastic as a dog walker for Carla. He was organised, good at communicating, punctual and reliable. Joe was also flexible when I needed to change a day around. He was energetic with Carla and she clearly had a lot of fun on her walks with river swims and sticks. I would highly recommend him.”
About: Ever since I can remember I have been surrounded with cats and loved every minute with them. Family and friends always know that they can rely on my to take care of their pets. Although I have not professionally looked after animals, I have been surrounded by them my whole life and have always had a close bond with animals. Thank you for reading! I am currently a student at university so my time is quite flexible. I also look after a cat which has been coming to my home every day and giving them plenty of play time and comfort! When looking after someones pet I always make sure to check with the owner of common places that their pet likes to go to, if they are indoor or outdoor, and things which make the pet happy, such as certain foods or ways to be pet. I also am completely able to follow a heavy detailed schedule, but may ask a few questions about certain details!
About: I had a cat when I was little. I had a cockapoo 15 to 26 and miss him loads. Just resigned from my job so I’m free most of the time for same day bookings but better to have some notice in advance. Absolutely love pets and can help train if needed :) Love getting outside for walks but also a big fan of lounging on the sofa for a cuddle! Have Henrietta Park right by me and will go for adventures! Have super comfy sofas, not a super busy flat so it’s a nice calm environment. I love to get more than 15k steps in a day so it’s always best to have a companion! I miss having my dog around so it’s nice to have a 4 legged friend.

About: I've grown up with both cats and dogs and have always been surrounded by animals. Over the years, I've regularly looked after the pets of friends and family, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and care needs. A few years ago, I volunteered at a dog shelter in Cape Town, which strengthened my passion for working with dogs. Since then, I've cared for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments in my local community. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and administering medication when needed. Most of all, I have a big heart and a genuine love for animals. I'm honest, reliable, and attentive, so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your pets will be treated as if they were my own. I'll make sure they receive plenty of love, care, and attention, and I'll enjoy every moment spent with them. I always adjust my schedule to meet your pet's individual needs. As pet sitting is my full-time focus, I'll be with your pets for the majority of the day, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, love, and companionship. Your dog will enjoy regular walks suited to their personality and energy level, whether that's exploring the countryside, playing fetch at a local park, or socialising with other friendly dogs. Every walk is designed to keep them happy, active, and engaged while maintaining their usual routine. Safety and security are my number one priority. I will always discuss your dog's recall, temperament, and how they interact with other dogs and people, and I will carefully follow any advice or requests you provide. Your dog will only be let off lead with your permission and only in safe, secure areas. I aim to keep to your dog's usual routine so they feel comfortable and settled while you're away. If they enjoy the company of other dogs, I can provide group walks. If they prefer one-to-one walks, I will happily accommodate that too.
About: I’ve both potty trained and behaviour trained a springer spaniel puppy. I have also looked after and cared for elderly dogs and cats, both of which required medication in their food I am currently a student at bath spa university studying geography in the hopes of entering the conversation field post graduation. I have a deep care for animals and nature and have been raised on these values. Outside of term time I live in Switzerland where I look after my 3 year old springer spaniel and 15 year old maine coon cat who has recently been diagnosed with cancer and requires daily medication. Unfortunately i cannot offer pet sitting in my own home as it is a student property, however I am more than happy to pet sit in your home. I will make sure areas are secure, walks are a sufficient length for your pet and try to provide walk both on and off lead depending on location. Food will always be given at the time requested.
“Gizem did a wonderful job walking Kaos daily for a week! She was professional and on time always. Kaos loved her and trusted her instantly. I will definitely lean on her whenever I need help in the future!”
“From the start Natalia was exceptional at engaging in fun physical activities with my anxious collie and providing calm authority for her. She provided 4 x one/ two hour walks per week for 4 weeks while I recovered from major surgery - always reliable and taking the initiative to reschedule during the heatwave. Highly recommended!”

“Francesca came to the rescue when someone cancelled last minute, for which we are very grateful! We were sent videos which was lovely and Trevor was clearly having lots of fun. Would definitely book again.”
“Manognya did a wonderful job of looking after Guimauve. He was really happy to see her and had a wonderful time walking and being fussed on the sofa. Manognya is a really great dog sitter and we can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“Gus had a lovely time with Jessica, who walked, played and cuddled him to his heart's consent. I got regular pupdates, and drop off and pick up was easy. We are really glad we have someone in the area we can completely rely on.”
About: I’ve grown up loving animals and in a household full of cats. My family was even specialized in breeding rabbits, guinea pigs, ducks, geese and chicks! I had a lovely Yorkshire terrier, Meggie, for 16 amazing years until 3 years ago. I also regularly dog sit for some of my closest friends on a semi regular basis, so I am used to different types of dogs and needs. I go on walks with them, feed them and play with them. I am comfortable with any special instructions you might have for your loved pet. I have also done long stay house sitting for families with feline members. And I am currently regularly taking care of two kittens for one of my friends as well. I am currently taking a gap year to concentrate on renovating my bungalow, so any animal company is more than a welcome distraction. The main bulk has now been done, so there is nothing dangerous for a pet that would need to stay here. I will make them feel right at home! I’m currently renovating my bungalow, so I can be very flexible and give your pet/s the attention and care they need, as well as have plenty of time for walks and play time. I have a large garden fenced, but it is also currently connected to my driveway, however if this is a problem and I am told in advance, I can make arrangements such as 10m leads. Whilst renovating, the big bulk of things is currently finished, so there is nothing dangerous around the house that will harm the animals.
About: I create connections with all animals of all ages easily. I have pride in my relationship with animals and how much love I have for them. My family dog has been left in my own care since I was 14, taken care of multiple cats and used “borrow my doggy” multiple times in the past year. I am currently a part-time supervisor and attend university during term time. My hours are flexible as I work in hospitality and many of my lecturers are online. I have plenty of time to be with your furry friend, take them out and be company when you need. I live in a 5th floor flat with no garden, however easy access to areas to use the toilet. I live with one other person.
About: Canadian/Aussie Pet Sitter Newish to England here to help with loving your doggo's in your absence! My Story: I was the owner of a beautiful Cavoodle, Miley, for 15 years, she soul shatteringly passed away in Oct 2023 and to heal I started to dog sit in my neighborhood, a daily fur fix and being able to give love to a furry friend was incredibly healing. In December I took some time to heal further and booked a trip to visit friends in Bath, I loved it so much and when I returned to my empty home, I decided I wanted to make the move over. The universe must of been listening because my employer of 8 years made my position redundant, and I took that as the final sign that my time was up in Australia, and it was time to start a new life for myself in England. My Experience: I specialize in anxious doggo's that need full time company, and extra love and cuddles, I care for every pup as if they are my own and all of my clients I started beautiful relationships with and became one of their "hooman's", so much so that before I left Aus I had a farewell puppy party at the pub where I could say goodbye to all the beautiful furry souls that Miley sent to heal me! So now I'm on the hunt for my next furry friends! I have experience with all doggos big and small ranging from 3kg - 65KG (Yup one of my fav clients was a 6-month-old Tibetan sweetheart) Available most days and weekends. I work as local store manager in menswear and have sunday mondays off, my partner Andrew who is also a dog lover and has grown up his whole life with a dog works from home 4 days during the week so we are a 2 for 1 doggy sitter duo to help with availability. We are completely open to keeping to the dog's pace, from long walks and fetch for high energy border collies and working breeds, to cuddles and naps for an elderly poodle.
About: Having grown up with dogs in my family and gone on to work in professional kennels, I have hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I recently left my full-time job and as a result have flexibility to provide walks, day care and overnight stays. My aim is to provide a genuine alternative to kennels or large daycare, with a fun, and loving environment where I can give individual attention. I enjoy being active and genuinely love getting out for long walks every day, so your dog will never be short of adventure, fresh air, and exercise. I also have experience working with dogs who have anxiety or behavioural difficulties. I have a flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. I also have a car which is set up for transporting dogs safely, and I am happy to provide pick up or drop offs. I live in house with an enclosed back garden. This provides a great environment for dogs to play. Likewise, inside the house there are various dog beds and toys!
“Booth had a lovely time with Natasha and her family. We were kept up to date and received photographs and videos reassuring us that Booth was having a lovely time. It was obvious that he really bonded with Natasha and her family and enjoyed his stay. We would not hesitate to use Natasha again and would highly recommend her pet sitting services.”
“Another amazing stay for Nelly! She always comes home tired after a few days with Melissa, who definitely makes her feel like one of the family! Would always recommend. Thanks again!”
“Richanne and her partner are such lovely people. I felt very happy leaving my little girl 🐶with them. She made a new best friend in their dog chilli which makes me even happier to know she’s having a whale of a time with a play pal. They made sure I was updated the whole time with pics and messages and I will definitely be using them again! 100% recommend”
“Chris was so fantastic from beginning to end. She was quick to respond to our enquiry and we did a meet and greet beforehand. She sent us regular updates on how Murphy was getting on which was reassuring. Her dog Lottie was lovely and calm with our dog. Murphy came home happy and relaxed so we knew he was in great hands. We would highly recommend Chris!”
About: I have always adored animals and was lucky enough to get my soul mate in pup form at the age of 8, and we got him a little brother a few years later. After moving away from my family home and sadly loosing our adored boys - I am longing to care for some furry friends to keep me busy (and I’m hoping it will persuade my boyfriend to get a long term companion, although not much persuasion is needed 😂) although my family have always had smaller dogs - I do not discriminate and love all dogs of every size and floof! I am currently between jobs after moving out of London (nannying&dog sitting) as I wanted to be closer to my partner so at the moment I have all the time in the world to devote to your precious pooches! We adore having canine company 🥰 We have no pets in the property , a fairly spacious fenced garden (in the process of fixing a panel) but I will always be in the garden with them anyway. We are so blessed to live less than 1 min walk away from a lovely calm peaceful park which goes on to the canal perfect for both short snappy walks and longer treks depending on what your pup needs!
“Daisy-Mae spent a night here with Lily and her family, she was well looked after and loved, walked fed and watered. Would definitely recommend Lily, the environment was very dog friendly and the family all loved to cuddle with our pup. Would definitely ask for her to stay here again 👍”
About: I am a reliable and experienced dog walker with many years of hands‑on practice, having started caring for family and neighbours’ dogs from the age of 10. I have looked after dogs of many different breeds and temperaments, providing walking, feeding, bathing and overnight care. I now also have my own dog, for whom I am fully responsible, further strengthening my practical experience and commitment to high‑quality care. I am currently on a gap year with no long‑term commitments, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I am able to work around you and your dog’s routine, providing the length and type of walks that best suit their needs. Although I have my own dog, walks will be focused solely on your dog, as mine will remain at home to ensure a calm, dedicated environment tailored to your dog’s needs. I have experience with training, larger breeds and puppies, and can confidently manage a wide range of dogs, whether they require on‑lead or off‑lead walks in line with your preferences.
“I would highly recommend Natalie for dog boarding. She was fantastic with my dog, and kept me updated with photos throughout his stay. My dog had the best time, and came back tired out from walks and playing with Natalie’s dogs.”
“Paddy had a wonderful time with Lucy and her family. He clearly loved hanging out with another whippet and was so well cared for. Paddy & Max seem very similar and it’s fab to find someone who knows how to look after the eccentricities of a sighthound - 100% recommend!”
“Fiamma and her partner Ben, they are amazing. Dark loves them and we always feel that she is in great hands while we are on holiday. Even when our flight was delayed, they were super helpful and nice. Highly recommended, they will be always our first choice!”
