“Our active highly strung young Weim ‘Skye’ enjoyed a brilliant trial stay over with Brigitte, settling in very well & thriving on the loving attention received & varied walking adventures! Skye can’t wait to go back!”
“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.”
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!
“Natalie is absolutely amazing with Henry, you can tell she loves him as much as he does her. Lots of pictures whilst we were away and reassuring messages. Very calm and adjusted really well to being back home. Fantastic dog sitter. *****”
“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.”
“Jessica was great! very quick at communicating and kept us fully informed while Maia stayed with her, lots of pics and asked us all the things we forgot to mention. It was the first time we’d left Maia with anyone apart from friends and family but Jessica made it all super easy. Thanks again :)”
“Frankie took a great care of Eddie. Our booking was quite last minute but Frankie responses to us within an hour. The communication was good as well, we had updates of Eddie throughout his entire stay. Eddie seems to enjoy the time spent with Frankie and her boyfriend Jimmy very much.”
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.
“Melissa & family are genuine dog lovers with a keen knowledge & understanding of dog behavior & needs. Skye, our 12 month old Weimaraner was chilled & content during her first overnight stay & enjoyed a ‘home away from home’ in a caring & safe environment with lots of attention, affection & countryside walks. I cannot recommend Mel highly enough - great communication & updates throughout. Skye is looking forward to future longer stays at Mel’s.”
“First time that we leave Ralph overnight with Shniele and she made us feel very confortable and gave us updates through his stay, Ralph seen to had a great time, will use her services again!”
“I cannot thank Lily enough for not only taking amazing care of Harlow but also doing it on such short notice! I was kept updated throughout Harlows stay and she seemed so happy to be with Lily and her amazing family :) I should be recommending Lily to anyone that will listen but then I’m afraid she will be too busy to be Harlows step mum haha Lily your amazing thank you so much for everything you did I cannot express how appreciative I am for everything you did for my pup”
“Pasha isn’t the kind of dog who trusts people easily, but he connected with Ecrin right away. She always kept me updated with photos, and Pasha looked genuinely happy in every single one of them. Ecrin was very responsible and always replied to my messages promptly. I would definitely rely on her again without hesitation.”

“Sophie is brilliant with my little cat, she takes great care with his awkward feeding needs and always gives him lots of fuss. I trust her 100% and will continue to use her as my first choice every time.”
About: I have experience caring for cats of all personalities and breeds, from playful tabbies to independent tortoiseshells. I've looked after cats for extended periods, including stays of one to two weeks, ensuring they feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed in their own environment. I love engaging cats with interactive play and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained. Whether your cat enjoys chasing toys, exploring new games, or simply having a quiet companion nearby, I'm happy to adapt to their individual needs. Most importantly, I understand that every cat is unique. Building trust takes time, and I always respect a cat's boundaries and personality. As any cat lover knows, there's nothing more rewarding than earning a cat's confidence and becoming their trusted friend!
“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!”
“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!”
“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 grown up always having cats or dogs in my home so caring for animals has been part of my everyday life. Over the years I have also helped friends and family by pet sitting, walking, and giving lots of love and attention to their pets. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable and happy while their owners are away. Being around pets brings so much joy, which I am now missing due to no longer living in a home with them. I am currently unemployed while I search for my postgraduate job, which means I have plenty of time to dedicate to looking after your pets! When caring for pets in their own home, I always make sure they feel safe in their familiar space. I ensure to follow the owner’s instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent, whether it is walks, playtime or feeding. I treat every home with respect, keeping it clean and secure while I am responsible for it.
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: 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.
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’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
“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”
About: My partner and I are very tidy people, and we’re lucky that JOJO is also a very clean cat. Over the past two years, I’ve cleaned her litter box every morning and evening to make sure she can use it comfortably. JOJO is particular about her litter, so we provide a soft, fine-quality litter that’s gentle on her paws. JOJO loves running around the house, so to keep her safe and give her plenty of space to play, we keep our furniture minimal. She also dislikes drinking from dirty bowls, so I wash her water bowl every morning. She likes to eat different foods from different bowls, and so far we’ve bought 15 bowls for her—fortunately, she’s happy with all of them! With her short legs and long fur, we often look at the house from her perspective on the floor, which means we regularly clean the floors and keep the home tidy. Since moving to the UK, JOJO loves watching seagulls outside, but she actually prefers watching cars and people from the balcony—it’s just too cute. JOJO is very playful, so we’ve bought her lots of toys, and we play with her every morning and before bedtime. She also likes to eat with us, so we prepare her canned food during our meals. Over these two years, we’ve noticed many of her unique habits. Every year we throw a cute little birthday party for JOJO. She gets a birthday hat, her favorite canned food, and of course I get to blow out the candles for her, haha. I share all this to show that we take caring for any living being very seriously. I’ll observe your pet carefully, respect their personality, and make sure they feel happy and comfortable while spending time with me.
“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!”
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.

“Absolutely amazing hosts! We were in town for a rugby match. Out dog is a bit anxious, but settled really well and quickly with Erin and Andrew. They have been great with communication, shared photos and videos throughout the stay. 10 out of 10 hosts!”
“Francesca was a delight to communicate with. She kept me up to date throughout the day and made sure every need was met. I was surprised by the professional photos which were beautiful (maybe because he is so beautiful) but I must admit I have some amazing new wallpaper for my phone! Thank you so much for everything and so easy to relax knowing my boy was in great hands!”
“We’re so pleased we’ve found Lesley! She was so great with Remi, taking him on plenty of walks and helping him settle in with her lovely family and dogs Sparkie and Alfie. She sends regular updates and pictures/videos so we felt reassured Remi was having a great time while we were away.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Renata was great with comms leading up to the sit. although she had not looked after Billy before I was very confident handing him over after Renata took onboard the tips and instructions and asked sensible questions. She kept in touch with us through the day which is always reassuring. Will be really happy if she can sit for Billy again.”
About: I have extensive experience with animals, I grew up riding horses and volunteered at the riding school through most of my youth and early teenage years. We had two cats at home and also had hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I have also cared for ferrets, degus, goats, sheep, chickens, donkeys, rats, and mice. I study through an online university, leaving me with ample flexibility. This allows me to be with your pet exclusively, which benefits your pet in many ways. This particularly helps pets who experience separation anxiety from their owners. I have references and am DBS-checked to ensure security and reassurance. CPD accredited in dog first aid. I follow instructions very precisely to ensure your pet is cared for as you desire. I will keep you in the loop while you are away, I am happy to send you photographs and updates of how your pet is getting on. I treat every pet as though it were my own, giving them the love, attention and time they deserve :)
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: Hello there! I'm Isobel, a remote Project Executive and musician based in Bath. Having grown up with 2 golden retrievers and currently mum to mini dachshund, Herbie, I am an animal lover! I have also had bunnies and guinea pigs when I was younger. I know how much pets mean to a person, and take the responsibility of your animal very seriously. I take the utmost care on every walk and make sure that your dog is safe, comfortable and happy while with me and when I visit. I will only look after one 'dog family' at any time, so rest assured I will be giving them my full attention at all times. I also have my own transport for excursions further afield, to the National Trust properties for example, for maximum enrichment and excitement for your pup! I have experience with puppies, elderly dogs and troubled dogs, so you can trust me with your best friend no matter their background. I am considered reliable and organised by colleagues and previous clients. I hope you will consider me to look after your furry friend. I currently work from home and have my own dog anyway. I will take him on one longer walk and multiple little walks a day, so if that works for your dog then they’ll fit right in! I don’t really leave Herbie home alone for more than an hour. Since I work from home and I have Herbie, your pup will have plenty of company and entertainment!
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.
“Oscar really likes staying with Ecrin. She's wonderful and is very interactive & active with Oscar. I get lots of lovely photo updates. Ecrin is very proactive and always communicates clearly. I would recommend. Thank you ⭐️”
“An excellent experience from start to finish. They took the time to understand my dog's routine, personality, and needs, which made me feel confident leaving him in their care. The updates were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was obvious that my dog settled in quickly and enjoyed his stay. When I collected him, he was content, well exercised, and had clearly been given lots of attention. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again and would happily recommend them to other dog owners looking for reliable and attentive care.”
“My little boy oli had the most amazing time! Photos throughout to keep me updated! My little 11 week old pup loved playing with her older dogs with their beautiful temperament. Thank you so much for your amazing service.”
“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!”
About: We are a friendly couple living in Fairfield park, a 30 min walk to bath city center. We also have a gorgeous little puppy of our own named Pici! We have a secure garden and we are a 10 min walk away from the gorgeous fields of Charlcombe nature reserve. I work from home full time, and our lovely little puppy loves to play with other dogs. We are open mostly for older, calmer dogs (who Pici can learn from!) rather than energetic puppies. Jimmy and I have years of experience with dogs, having both sat regularly via the Trusted House Sitters platform prior to getting our own dog. Walks prior to work (starting around 9am), lunchtime (12-1) or in the evening (530 onwards) all suite my schedule. I work from home full time. I have experience with trusted house sitters, with over 5 5* reviews of house sits in England & New Zealand. We also have our own puppy, so we have lots of enrichment games and toys.

“Tim did a great job with Kaos. He was there on time and took Kaos exploring new routes. He kept me updated with photos and videos and Kaos had a wonderful time ! Would definitely use his services again 🙏”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs through Rover for over three years, and during that time, I’ve had the joy of looking after some wonderful regulars, including Dude, Wally, Mabel, Herbie, and Pepper. They have kept me busy week after week, which is why I haven’t been taking on many new dogs recently, but I’m excited to welcome new furry friends again. I live with my partner in the heart of Bath on Great Pulteney Street, just minutes from beautiful parks, which is perfect for walks since we live in a flat with no garden. Most of the dogs I care for are dachshunds, so I know their big personalities, routines, and love of blankets and treats. We also happily welcome other small breeds, as bigger dogs just wouldn’t be fair in our flat. Caring for dogs has become such a big part of my life, and one day we hope to bring our own sausage dog home. I work full-time (9–5:30), but my day is already built around dog care. On weekdays, walks and potty breaks usually look like: - Morning walk before work (around 8am) - Lunch break walk - Afternoon walk when my partner gets home - Evening potty breaks around 8pm and 11pm (depending on needs and feeding schedules) Occasionally (usually Thursdays), I travel to London for work. If an owner is comfortable, I’m happy to bring their dog with me, as my office is dog-friendly. If not, my work is flexible and I’m able to skip the London visit that week, so routines at home stay the same. I focus on calm, safe, and consistent care, always following feeding schedules, walk routines, and any house rules you have in place. I’m comfortable administering medication if needed and keep owners updated with regular messages and photos. FOR DACHSHUND OWENERS: I’ve had the pleasure of caring for 4 dachshunds through Rover, so I know how important it is to protect their backs. We’re very mindful of IVDD, making sure to carry them up and down stairs, as well as equipped our sofa with dog steps. Every walk, play session, and cuddle is handled with care to keep them comfortable, happy, and safe while they’re with us.
“I'm really happy with Ayla, she is obviously a dog lover and Poppy can't wait for her morning walk - I think she decides where they are going. I would recommend Ayla to anyone.”
“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.”
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!
“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!”
About: Hi everyone My name is Maria and I have been surrounded my whole life by cats and dogs, at some points even rabbits, and I learned from a young age to love them and take care of them. I have been always loving animals and taking care of my friends pets while they’re in holidays and they were happy with my service and they kept calling me back every time. I found that I can do this for people and get paid…. even better, never been thinking about this. I have my own cat for 8 years now and I know the responsibility and care that a pet needs. I am very excited to meet your fluffy friends and give them the care they need. I am working part time, 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon and I can come 2-3 times for your pet everyday. First of all at the beginning we need to know each other and get to become friends. Trust is to be earned not asked for so I will observe their behaviour and their needs to know to give them exactly what they need, always listen to their owner instructions because they know them more than anybody. I will follow the house rules and give them the best care I can.
About: I am from France and have owned and cared for dogs since I was 10 years old. I currently have two dogs who live with my parents in France while I am in the UK and I remain very involved in their care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and have also looked after friends’ dogs on several occasions. I treat other people’s dogs as my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for. I really miss being around dogs regularly, which is why I want to offer dog sitting. I am mostly available during weekdays as I am not currently working, especially late mornings, afternoons and evenings whenever possible. I can also be flexible on weekends. I live in a quiet top-floor flat with no other dogs in the building, which provides a calm environment for pets. I also live very close to a nice park, which is ideal for regular walks and exercise. When caring for dogs, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime and lots of attention and affection. I am attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether they prefer active play or a calmer environment and I always prioritise their safety and comfort. If I am caring for pets in an owner’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to maintain the dog’s normal routine and help them feel secure while their owner is away.
“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!”
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life and I have run my dog care business for nearly 3 years. I’m very passionate about what i do and care very deeply about the dogs I look after. I’ve got experience with highly energetic dogs and older slower ones and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes as I have two of my own who are very big, My older boy is disabled so I have lots of experience with special needs dogs. I also have experience with nervous and reactive dogs and take the time for them to get used me before I look after them I have endless patience when it comes to dogs and I happy to go for hour hike through the woods or an hour just potting around my local grave yard (which many of my clients love!) I run my own dog walking business so fitting you in with my routine won’t be a problem. I’m also free for dog walks and dog sitting throughout the week. Dogs will stay on the lead near road and livestock no matter their recall. I’ll always make sure your dogs are safe and well care for while they are under my care
About: I was raised with pets my whole life; my family focuses on rescuing dogs and cats from troubled backgrounds, and helping them relearn what a warm and loving home can be. From the age of 11, I both babysat and dogsat for my neighbours and friends of my parents. Since moving to university, I've missed my pets more than anything, and am very keen to get to know some furry friends here in Newcastle! I've had such a great time looking after different dogs already, and have developed close bonds with both the pets and their owners. My partner and I both work from home, so will be in the flat every day to look after your pets. Although I don't have a garden, I have easy access to grass outside of my building, and am a 5 minute walk away from Exhibition Park. As my partner and I both work from home, we're completely flexible and can be there for your pet 24/7. We'll always check with you how long your pet is comfortable being left for before we make any other plans during their stay with us. I have a very calm demeanor, and prioritise making sure the dog is completely comfortable in my presence. I am always happy to set up an initial meeting (free of charge) with your pet while you are there, so that they can get to know me and my scent before we spend time alone together.
About: Hello! I’m originally from South Korea. In case you’re not very familiar with my country, I’d love to share a little about it. South Korea is a place where people truly love their pets. We have pet kindergartens, pet-friendly restaurants, and even cafés that host birthday parties for pets. Because Korea currently has one of the lowest birth rates in the world, pets are often treated like family members. If you visit Korea, you might even see strollers with little dogs inside instead of babies! As for me, my partner and I have a cat called JOJO. Her name comes from a character in a Japanese anime that I love. I hoped she would grow up brave like that character, but it turns out she is actually a very adorable — and very shy — cat. Over the past two years of raising JOJO, we’ve always been responsible for her, making sure she gets her regular vaccines, deworming, and check-ups. So far, she hasn’t had any serious illnesses. She was spayed at eight months old, has excellent behavior, is very confident at home, and doesn’t damage any furniture. When I first started living with JOJO, I realized that having a pet is not always easy. She used to wake me up at four in the morning, sometimes knocking over her water bowl to make noise. Once she even knocked a fish tank onto the floor, which made me worry that she might get hurt. That experience made me start learning more about animal behavior and pet psychology. Over time I learned that every pet has a unique personality. JOJO isn’t very motivated by food, but she loves playing. So now I spend about an hour every day playing with her, and she no longer wakes me up early in the morning. Instead, she quietly waits beside me until I wake up and then happily runs around the house. I’ve been living with JOJO for almost two years now. She has taught me patience and how important it is to respect every animal’s personality. I will take the time to understand your pet’s personality and care for them with the same love and patience I give to JOJO. To me, animals are not just pets — they are companions we grow and share our lives with. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel relaxed while you’re away. If you have a dog, please don’t worry! I’ve been walking friends’ dogs in Korea since middle school. I’ve walked small and medium breeds like Maltese and Teddy dogs, and I know how to make sure they have water and pick up after them. So you can rest assured I can handle that. For large dogs, I might not be able to walk them, but I’m happy to come to your home and spend the day playing with your dog. If you don’t mind a little “disturbance,” I can even send you a hundred photos in one day to keep you relaxed—haha! I’m currently on a legal visa and in the process of job hunting here in the UK. Because I haven't started a full-time role yet, I have a lot of flexibility and would love to hang out with your pets on a daily basis. I’m more than happy to tailor my care to your exact needs. If I’m looking after them at your place, I’d be completely comfortable with you having pet cameras—it’s a great way for you to stay connected and see how we’re getting along! If you don’t have one, no worries at all; I’ll send you plenty of photo and video updates throughout the day. "If you’d prefer to drop them off at my home, I’ll make sure JOJO (my cat) stays settled in our bedroom. This ensures JOJO feels safe while giving your pet plenty of space to roam and relax. I’ll be sure to keep you posted with lots of updates so you can see how much fun they're having!
About: Hi! I’m a passionate and reliable animal lover offering dog walks and drop-in visits to keep your pets happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for a variety of pets. I also volunteered at an animal shelter from the age of 12, which gave me valuable hands-on experience and strengthened my love for animal care. I understand that every pet is unique, so I always take the time to get to know their individual needs, routines, and personalities. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets will be treated with the same love, patience, and attention that I would give my own. Spending time with pets for me is something i value most, I work in hospitality which can be unsociable hours and not suitable for over night stays. Due to this I am only able to offer dog walking and drop in visits as i always have my mornings free! The most important thing is that your pet has everything necessary to be as happy and content as possible, i will ensure all your pets needs are fulfilled and that they are comfortable. I live with three dogs, One being a 15year old yorkie terrier who receives different meals compared to the younger dogs as she finds it easier to eat softened food. The other 2 dogs, A poodle mix and another yorkie terrier, both very active dogs that receive daily walks and the right enrichment to keep there minds occupied and happy.

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!
“Natalie is absolutely amazing with Henry, you can tell she loves him as much as he does her. Lots of pictures whilst we were away and reassuring messages. Very calm and adjusted really well to being back home. Fantastic dog sitter. *****”
“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.”
“Jessica was great! very quick at communicating and kept us fully informed while Maia stayed with her, lots of pics and asked us all the things we forgot to mention. It was the first time we’d left Maia with anyone apart from friends and family but Jessica made it all super easy. Thanks again :)”
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.
“Melissa & family are genuine dog lovers with a keen knowledge & understanding of dog behavior & needs. Skye, our 12 month old Weimaraner was chilled & content during her first overnight stay & enjoyed a ‘home away from home’ in a caring & safe environment with lots of attention, affection & countryside walks. I cannot recommend Mel highly enough - great communication & updates throughout. Skye is looking forward to future longer stays at Mel’s.”
“First time that we leave Ralph overnight with Shniele and she made us feel very confortable and gave us updates through his stay, Ralph seen to had a great time, will use her services again!”
“I cannot thank Lily enough for not only taking amazing care of Harlow but also doing it on such short notice! I was kept updated throughout Harlows stay and she seemed so happy to be with Lily and her amazing family :) I should be recommending Lily to anyone that will listen but then I’m afraid she will be too busy to be Harlows step mum haha Lily your amazing thank you so much for everything you did I cannot express how appreciative I am for everything you did for my pup”
“Pasha isn’t the kind of dog who trusts people easily, but he connected with Ecrin right away. She always kept me updated with photos, and Pasha looked genuinely happy in every single one of them. Ecrin was very responsible and always replied to my messages promptly. I would definitely rely on her again without hesitation.”
“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.”
“Nala seemed to have been very well looked after and behaving her usual self when back with us . Has obviously had enough walks as was very relaxed Thankyou for having her”

“Lilli had a morning with Ann and Brendan and was obviously totally happy. Photos of walks and Lilli curled up on their sofa were very reassuring. Lilli was totally unstressed by her visit and we will definitely be asking if they can have her again. Thoroughly recommend. 👍”
