“Bellatrix had a fabulous stay. It was our first time using a sitter and all my concerns were alleviated upon first meeting. Rachel and her family made sure Bella’s felt at home and she settled v quickly. Cannot recommend enough”
“Rebeca has been a life saver, my dog went from very shy to like her a lot. It was the first time I left him with a stranger, both Teddy and I were anxious about the experience, but Rebeca proved to be fantastic and patient. We would highly recommend her services.”
“Thank you James for taking great care of Maisie over the weekend! I highly recommend James if you want somebody who actually cares about dogs and understands their needs he is the man to trust with your four legged family member. He sends pictures and updates too!”
“Mark was fantastic. Kept us beautifully in touch and looked after our spaniel Coco wonderfully. She didn’t want to leave! Couldn’t have been better, highly recommend.”
“Fantastic dog sitter and a thoroughly lovely experience. Maddy and Lewis were great, the updates and pictures that she sent through were awesome and very much appreciated. Our boy loved his stay ❤️”
“Can’t recommend Heather highly enough. Looked after our boy so well - a real home from home for him! Communication was great and we really appreciated the photos and updates of him enjoying himself! Thank you!”
“Annie & Mitch were amazing sitters. They looked after out our husky for a night in the heatwave and were kind and thoughtful planning earlier and later walks and lots of frozen treat enrichment. We had lovely pup dates and photos. We’d highly recommend them thank you 🐺💖”
“My girls didn’t even hesitate when Georgina opened the door to them, they ran straight in and made themselves at home, the best home setting I could wish for for them. We were updated with how things were going throughout the stay and I wasn’t worried for a minute. Georgina and her family are the only people we want the girls to go to when we go away. Thank you”
About: Hello, we're Hannah and Josh! Dogs have been part of both our families since we were children and a home without a dog in it has never felt quite right to us. Two years ago we got our goldendoodle Benji, and the adventure of raising a puppy began. We took him to puppy classes and keep his training going day to day, so we're comfortable with young, bouncy dogs and happy to stick to whatever commands and routines your dog already knows. We're an active couple who love countryside walks, trips to the park, and plenty of games of fetch with Benji. We both work from home, so your dog will have lots of company throughout the day and won't be left alone for long periods. We've also been on the other side of this app. When we go away, Benji stays with a sitter, so we know that nervous feeling of handing your dog over to someone new. We also know how reassuring it is to receive a photo of them fast asleep on the sofa or happily out on a walk. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, settled, and well cared for. Every dog is different, so we'll always follow your lead on food, walks, personality, all of it! We want your dog's stay to feel as close to home as possible. Josh and I both work from home full-time, so there will always be one of us at home throughout the day. Your dog will have plenty of company and will become part of our daily routine. We already take our Goldendoodle, Benji, out for walks every day, so your dog will simply come along too. Whether they enjoy long countryside walks or prefer something shorter and slower, we're happy to adapt to whatever they're used to so we can keep their routine as familiar as possible. We know every dog is different, so we'll always follow the routine that works best for them. If they have set mealtimes, a bedtime routine, are crate trained, or prefer to sleep in their own space at night, we're more than happy to accommodate them. Just let us know beforehand, and we'll do everything we can to make their stay feel familiar, comfortable and stress-free. Your dog's safety and comfort will always be our priority. We have experience raising our own Goldendoodle, Benji, who is now two, and we know how important it is for dogs to feel happy, settled and understood in a new environment. Before any stay, we always encourage a meet and greet so you and your dog can meet us, explore our home, and make sure both dogs feel comfortable with each other. Benji is a very friendly and playful dog, and we want every dog that stays with us to feel like they are really welcomed. Benji also has a profile on Rover that you can check out! We have a secure, enclosed garden with fencing, giving dogs a safe space to enjoy some fresh air and play. Before your dog's stay, we'll always ask about their individual needs, including any allergies, dietary requirements, personality traits, boundaries, and anything else that helps us care for them in the best way possible. Our aim is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your dog is safe and treated as part of our family while they're with us.
“With it being Ambers first time away from us she she joined our family, we couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful, warm, friendly and playful environment for her to stay. Beth, Dan and Darcy really did make it a home away from home for her. So much so she didn’t want to leave lol! Beth and Dan are so lovely and even met with us before booking to make sure it was a right match for us all. During our time away Beth kept us up to date with messages and pictures of Ambers stay 🥰 It was so reassuring in knowing our not so little pup was in great hands and paws while we were away 🥰”
“Vicky looked after our four month old Vizsla all day today and did a brilliant job! She kept in contact with me throughout the day and took excellent care of our very lively puppy. I would highly recommend her!”
“Daniela was so lovely and warm, Luka was immediately at ease in her home and I was very happy leaving him in her care. She sent me updates and photos and Luka looked super relaxed and happy in them! He came home very reluctantly after clearly having a great time. Would not hesitate to recommend her :)”
“Anna was really helpful looking after Sasha last minute. She was well looked after and was tired from the walks and playing, and enjoyed her stay! Would highly recommend! Thankyou.”
“Halley & Ed have looked after our dog, Dora, twice in a short space of time, and we couldn’t be happier with the care they’ve given her. They are both fantastic, and it’s clear that Dora absolutely loves staying with them. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in safe, caring hands while we’re away. Thank you both so much for taking such great care of Dora. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you!”
“Amy was great! She was extremely friendly and Ruby took to her instantly. Amy was really reassuring and kept us updated with some lovely photos. We will definitely use her again when needed. Highly recommend!”
“Susana was fantastic with Lottie, our miniature schnauzer. We were a bit anxious about never having left her with a sitter before. But Lottie was warmly welcomed by Suzana’s family. Suzana texted a photo to show us how relaxed Lottie was. It helped me relax and enjoy my time away knowing she was in good hands. We will use Suzan’s service again. I know we’ll need to book early as she is in demand. A kind, friendly service.”

“Hattie was absolutely amazing! She looked after our dogs at the weekend and went completely above and beyond for them. She was so lovely, reliable and responsive over messages, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about the dogs and made sure they were happy and well looked after. We couldn’t recommend Hattie highly enough and would definitely ask her to look after them again!”
“George visited my two cats. One of them needs special food and tablets. George did an amazing job. I would totally recommend him and I'm sure I'll contact him again next time.”
“Shannon did a fabulous job of looking after my cat, Moby. He was chilled and happy when I arrived home and Shannon had made sure to let me know how he was doing, via photos, whilst I was away. Great service!”
“Annie was great, she kept me informed with daily report cards and pictures, so i could relax knowing Norbert was in safe hands. I came home to a very chilled and happy Norbert. Thankyou Annie xx”
About: I’m Dan, a former cat owner and experienced house sitter. For around two to three years, I regularly cared for a client’s home and animals, including her cat, while she was overseas. Stays ranged from weekends to three or four months, so I understand the responsibility of keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their routines while their owner is away. I appreciate that cats have their own ideas about company. Whether yours enjoys play and attention or prefers a quieter approach, I’ll give them time and space to feel comfortable with me. For visits and overnight stays, I’ll follow your instructions on feeding, fresh water, litter trays and access around the home, with time for company and play suited to your cat. You can expect photographs and updates, attention to any changes in their usual behaviour, and respect for your home and privacy.
“Rakhee was brilliant. It was our first time using a cat sitter (we usually have family to help) and Rakhee has been such a wonderful cat sitter we’ll definitely use her service again. She sent photos and videos everyday which reassured us and she was accommodating and flexible with our requests. Her response time and communication has been great which is a big plus for us!”
“Elah is fantastic. She has looked after my cats a couple of times now, and I know they are very happy with her. She also sent me photos of them every day, which is lovely. I couldn’t recommend her more. ”
“Albert had a fantastic walk with Lewis, who took him for a long trip at lunch with his partner and their dog Rocky. Albert has since slept all afternoon and is looking forward to his next adventure! I would highly recommend Lewis.”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, I love every single dog I meet, no matter how bizarre, shy or crazy they are. I treat them as if they’re my own whilst also keeping their safety and happiness as my first priority. I’ve also been in Tanzania volunteering at Moshi dog rescue for the past three months helping with dog walks, grooming, feeding and general cleaning withinn in the sanctuary. This experience has just made my love for dogs even more intense. I work part time as an on call care manager, but I have plenty of time outside of work. I can also drive, so I’m happy to commute to wherever your fur baby is! I keep the owners home cleaner than they left it and clean up any mess whilst having fun with your pup! I will send regular photo/video updates to ensure you they’re in safe hands. I make sure that your home is fully secure and will not leave your dogs unattended for long periods of time!
About: I love cat so much and I have experience raised my own cat when I was younger. Since then till now I have strong passion of cat and I will giving them the best care they deserves.
About: Experienced in pet and house sitting, always receiving positive feedback from owners. Treating each animal with the respect they deserve, and importantly ensuring every owners mind is at ease whilst away from their very important companions! I am also a pet and equine photographer.
About: I got my first cat when I was 8 years old and have had cats all my life until recently . I owned Paws & Claws pet sitter in Swindon for 15 years and looked after multiple cats over that period covering most breeds from Maine Coons , British Blues , Sphynx , Siamese and your good old moggies.
About: I look after dogs of varying ages/sizes from puppies to your childhood pet. Walking, enrichment activities and of course snuggles are a key part of my pet care! I have a schedule which allows me the flexibility to offer drop in services depending on other commitments or full time in house sitting where notified ahead of time. Within a pets home I follow the examples set by their owners, letting the animals feel comfortable and secure. Walks are frequent as are enrichment activities to keep them entertained!
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 16. I love cats of all breeds and natures; I’m more than used to unhooking adventurous kittens from curtain fabrics! I have experience with both kittens and senior cats, and can give oral medication when needed. I really miss having cats around, and would love to spend some time with your cat!
“Millie looked after our cat Benjamin at our place and we are very happy with her services. She kept us well updated, the place was left in perfect conditions and Benjamin looked relaxed and well brushed (his favourite) when we got back. Would use Millie's services again.”
“Emily was fantastic! I came home to a clean house with a very happy cat! I could tell he had been really well looked after and Emily was amazing at sending images and videos over everyday! She replied really quickly as well every time I messaged and was fantastic all around! Would absolutely recommend to anyone!”

“Sophie was once again an absolute star with Joey! As he was unfamiliar with being in new surroundings, he unfortunately left his "mark" in multiple places in Sophie's house shortly after we arrived. Sophie was very understanding and forgiving :-) Joey has a great day exploring and giving and receiving cuddles, and Sophie was kind enough to brave the storm to drop him at home quite late at night. Fab experience again and I will have no hesitation in continuing to use Sophie's services and recommend her to others.”
“Tilly had a wonderful day with Lewis and Rocky, he took her for lots of lovely walks and she had a great time playing with Rocky. She can’t wait to go back and stay at the end of November. Lewis was great sending through photos of her walks. I would recommend Lewis if you are looking for someone to look after your dog.”

“Maple had a lovely day with Lily. She had put so much thought into making sure Maple had everything she needed, especially considering the heat. Maple took to her straight away and clearly had a lovely time. It was very reassuring for us to k ow that Mapme was somewhere where she was well cared for. I would highly recommend her”
“Daniela was a brilliant sitter! Showered our boy Dillon with so much love, and was super well prepared. We straight away booked her for another day as we've had a bit of a challenging week, and Daniela couldn't have been more helpful! Highly recommend!!”
“Simba has been going to Sarah regularly now, and it’s so reassuring to see how excited he gets every time he arrives. Sarah keeps us updated throughout the day with lovely photos and videos, and it’s clear from his happy face that he has the best time playing with the other dogs. Sarah takes such great care of Simba and I couldn't be more grateful. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and caring doggy day care provider to look after your fur baby:)”
“This was Hugo’s first time staying with her, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She sent lots of pictures, which really reassured me and showed how comfortable and happy he was. It was clear from the start how kind and lovely she is with him. I’m so grateful for the care she gave Hugo.”
“Very happy with Rebecca and her doggy day care. She was flexible in taking my last minute booking, which I was grateful for. It was the first time leaving my 7 month year old pup with someone and I couldn't be happier and was extremely well informed of how she was getting on during the time I was away. I will definitely book again and again with Rebecca”
“Izabela was brilliant. She is super friendly, helpful and my dogs had a fantastic time. She responded quickly to my last minute request and immediately put me at ease when we met. My dogs had a lovely time and slept all the way home. I would 100% recommend Izabella and hope to meet her again.”
“Emily was lovely, my Bobbie seemed relaxed with her immediately and when I came to collect my boy he was blissfully sleeping in a huge furry beanbag which he didn’t look like he wanted to leave. I can highly recommend Emily and her 2 Jack Russel assistants. Thank you Emily ? ?”
“Thank you Leah and James for having Maisie today! She obviously had a lot of fun as she is flat out now! Lovely pictures and updates, friendly and welcoming, we felt so comfortable leaving her. Maisie will most definitely be back! ❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of many friends and families dogs, confident on walks and overnights. I have a four year old son who’s also confident around dogs and we love to have them in the house. I’ve got a lovely large garden that they can roam in. I work from home so am available for daycare, can walk a couple of times a day (morning/lunchtime), can check in midday if required. If overnights stays are required, I’ll be available all day to let out for garden sniffs, and also for a couple of walks. I have a fenced garden, and also a four year old boy who is confident around dogs. Your dog would need to be ok around children for that reason. Similarly if you choose to book when my son is not with me then this is not an issue so please do select your service or date and we can discuss. I don’t currently have a crate so if needed you would need to provide that but otherwise any questions just ask.
“Heather was amazing with my puppy Stella I will definitely be using her again. It was great she could play with Heather’s own dog and her lovely daughter to help her socialisation. I knew Stella was safe and having fun and she didn’t even want to come home!”
About: I’ve looked after so many different breeds of dog for family, friends and neighbours, including my own pug and frenchie. I’m confident in applying topics medication, grooming and bathing I work flexibly full time, working from home 4 days a week. I go on daily hour long lunchtime walks anyway, as well as being free most evenings and weekends I’m comfortable in crating and grooming pets, as well as giving them peace or cuddles when they need or want it. I think I’m quite good at recognising animals signals
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, growing up with four schnauzers and a cocker spaniel. I also had my own schnauzer, Teo, back in Colombia, so I understand how much pets mean to their families. I’ll care for your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I run my own freelance interior design business from my home studio, which gives me the flexibility to organise my schedule around my clients’ and their pets’ needs. This means I can offer home visits throughout the day for feeding, walks, playtime, toilet breaks, and companionship. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends where possible, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your preferred times. I’m also happy to arrange a free meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other and make sure it’s the right fit for both you and your pet. Your pet’s wellbeing is always my priority. I currently offer home visits and dog walking, as I believe many pets are happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, making sure they have fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages for extra peace of mind. At the moment, I don’t offer pet boarding at my own home as I don’t have a garden. However, it’s something I’d love to offer in the future when I have the right outdoor space. Until then, I’m committed to providing reliable, caring visits in your pet’s own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable.
“Luna loves going to Leah's, I always know she's happy and well cared for and getting lots of enrichment. She loves having a run and play with the other dogs and cuddling up with Leah and James. They have done an amazing job at making her comfortable in a new place”

About: I have always had cats growing up and I’ve also cared for a variety of animals (including dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs) for many families within my town. I am fairly flexible due to recently graduating and now taking time to find a full time job. I am happy to do drop ins, walks or stay in your home any day of the week. I am comfortable learning your pets specific needs and commands as I understand how important a routine and consistency is for them. I am more than happy to communicate through messages and pictures as often as needed while you are away to ensure your confidence remains with me during my care.
About: I started Dog Walking for Neighbours at 10, Pet Sitting and helping neighbours with horses from 14 and then Housing Sitting from the age of 16. I’ve grown up around cats, dogs and horses of all sizes and ages, from young animals through to seniors. I also have experience caring for rescue dogs and horses, so I understand the extra patience and care they can require. With every dog I’ve owned, I’ve attended training classes, and I even showed my rescue Border Collie, Ollie, who won first place in both the County Agility competition and the “Most Handsome Hound” category. Growing up, the family pets were primarily my responsibility, so I’m very comfortable with everything from puppy care and training to looking after older dogs with changing needs. I’m more than happy to get stuck in with muddy walks, messy paws, and all the less glamorous parts of pet care too! I’m 27 and have recently moved to the area for work. At the moment, I’m unable to have pets of my own as I live in shared accommodation and occasionally travel for work. I’ve really been missing having animals in my life, as they’ve been a huge part of my daily routine since I was a child. I currently work a 9 to 5 in transport logistics with a half day on Fridays, 12pm finishes. I am happy to do early morning walks and then afternoon and evening walks. Back home, I’m out til 10:30pm with our family dog so happy to do late nights. I am unable to do lunch walks or visits Monday to Thursday. I have no weekend commitments so would schedule my Saturday and Sundays around the pets schedule to maintain their routines. I have my own transport with a clean drivers license and have been driving for 10 years with a National Trust Membership, if you as a owner is happy, I am more then happy to take your pet off to nearby areas for them to explore. I will comply with all owners requests for their pets and these will always be my first port of call when it comes to care. If I am ever unsure, I will ask, communication is very important to me as I know when away from my own pet I am always thinking of them.
“Sophie is absolutely amazing and I could not recommend anyone more 🙌🏻 Sophie could not have done anything more when looking after my boy and I was completely reassured during my time away for each walk! He was the happiest of boys and I know he will be so excited to see her again in the future 🧡 thank you!!”
“Rakhee was great with my collie Ted, she had him behaving like an angel and he came back tired but happy. She was interested to listen to all of his nuances and was careful not to over do things in the heat. She communicates really promptly and is really super to speak to. I would recommend Rakhee to anyone.”
“George went above & beyond when walking Kobe for the first time. He was on time, gave our boy a really good walk and helped to clean him on his return. Our relatives that were here when he came to walk our dog said George was lovely - friendly & professional. The walk was recorded on Rover and we were very impressed with the level of detail provided. Will definitely be using George again!”
About: I’m Dan, an experienced house sitter and lifelong animal owner. For around two to three years, I had a regular house-sitting arrangement for a client who divided her time between the UK and overseas. I looked after her home, two dogs, a cat, two Shetland ponies and a horse, with stays ranging from weekends to three or four months at a time. I maintained this arrangement alongside working in hospitality in the village, so I understand the importance of dependable routines, clear communication and balancing work commitments with the animals’ needs. Being trusted with someone’s home and pets over such extended periods is a responsibility I take seriously. I’ve grown up with dogs since the age of seven and have owned French bulldogs, pugs, German Shorthaired Pointers, Cocker Spaniels, cats, reptiles and horses. This has given me hands-on experience with smaller companion dogs, larger energetic gundogs and equine care, while recognising that every animal needs an individual approach. My own dogs are very much part of the family. When I moved overseas to live, they came with me. I understand the attachment owners feel and how reassuring it is to know their animals are comfortable, settled and properly cared for. Whether you need walks, daytime visits or overnight care, I’ll take time to understand your pet’s routine and agree arrangements that meet their needs. You can expect regular photographs and updates, careful attention to your instructions and respect for your home and privacy. Life with my own dogs already revolves around walks, meals and making time for company, so pet care is a natural part of my day. Having returned to the UK from living overseas, I am working part time as a hospitality consultant and I have a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins and overnight stays, whether your dog enjoys a proper outing or a gentle potter with plenty of sniffing stops. During house sits, I may pop out for other local walks or visits. We’ll agree this beforehand so you know what to expect and your pet gets the attention and routine they need. My calendar shows my current availability. I know that handing over your keys and leaving your pets with someone is a big thing. I like to meet beforehand so we can have a chat, your pets can get to know me and you can tell me about their little quirks—from favourite hiding places to the precise time dinner is apparently overdue. I’ll keep their usual routine, follow your instructions and give them company on their terms, whether that means a game, some fuss or quietly sharing a room. Walks will suit your dog’s needs, with suitable leads and harnesses, and I won’t pair them with another dog without your agreement. You’ll receive photographs and updates, and I’ll treat your home with care and respect. We’ll also cover the practical details, including secure doors and gates, veterinary information and emergency contacts, so I’m prepared if anything unexpected happens.
About: Since I was born, cats & dogs have been apart of my family, from Ginger Toms, Maine Coons’s , Tabby’s, Moggy’s, to Tonkinese. From Beagles, Dachshund’s, German Shepherds, Collies, and Labrador’s. , I’m also a member of the Cats Protection Agency Stroud branch. My work routine is as follows: Cheltenham - Monday - Thursday 8:00am-12:00pm / Friday 12:00pm-4:00pm. My weekends are free on a regular basis. Evening drop ins work for me also. I have a big garden area and outdoor space with my ground floor apartment away from any busy roads amongst a quiet area in Cirencester.
“Shannon is so great. My dog enjoy his walk with her and is always happy and relaxed when I get home. She is reliable and great at communicating. I would not be without her!”
“Thank you Emma Dior and George enjoyed their walks and your company this week. It was great to have someone so caring taking the boys out. Thank you for your last minute help, when we are in town again we will be booking in x”
“Thank you Annie for letting Hera take you for a walk around her favourite stinky spots and introduce you to her snack-dealers in hi-vis! She was very happy when I got home.”
About: Having owned my own dog for 5 years and taking care of others. I am offering confident, responsible, and caring dog walking around the GL54 area. After working with animals and horses for most of my life, I am comfortable to provide a safe and experienced service for your dog walking needs! I am currently working part-time so I can offer fairly flexible times for your dogs needs. Weekdays are preferable for me over weekends. I am only dog-walking at the moment but hope to tailor a time that works best for your pet. I am offering a pick up and drop off dog walking service. I have my own well behaved and socialized dog who will be coming on all walks to keep your dog company!
About: I have an 8 year old female Cocker Spaniel. Experience with drop in visits to friend’s dogs. New to Rover as a sitter myself. I am a teacher by day working 4 days a week. Mondays are my free days so have full availability on a Monday to suit your needs. I have a small fenced in garden. My garden does have astro turf. I can drive so happy to travel with your pup or to walk in your local area.
“Jess was a breath of fresh air, bursting with enthusiasm and common sense, reliable and clearly loves animals. I couldn’t recommend highly enough. We will definitely be using Jess again and again.. Thank you Jess!”
About: I look after dogs of varying ages/sizes from puppies to your childhood pet. Walking, enrichment activities and of course snuggles are a key part of my pet care! I have a schedule which allows me the flexibility to offer drop in services depending on other commitments or full time in house sitting where notified ahead of time. Within a pets home I follow the examples set by their owners, letting the animals feel comfortable and secure. Walks are frequent as are enrichment activities to keep them entertained!
About: Growing up in the countryside, animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with family dogs and have since spent years caring for animals of all shapes and sizes and feel very at home around them. I also have my own dog, who is one of the loves of my life! With many years of experience, I’m confident handling pets of all ages and sizes and understand the importance of consistency, safety and attentive care. Friends, family, neighbours and clients have trusted me to walk, feed and care for their pets for many years, and I first began house sitting at 17. Since then, I’ve looked after a wide variety of animals, each with their own personalities, routines and needs. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, prefers quiet company, or simply someone to stick to their usual routine, I will care for them as if they were my own. I’m always happy to send regular photos and updates throughout my stay, so you can relax and enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind knowing your pets are happy, settled and receiving the very best care in safe and capable hands. Please note that my own dog will never accompany me on walks, visits or house sits, so your pets will always receive my full attention and care. I’m self-employed, work from home and am currently between projects so have a little extra time on my hands and happy to help out where needed. Because I run my own business, I can be flexible with my time so am happy to work around your schedule and pets routines as best as possible. I can sometimes be flexible around weekends for walks and drop-ins, so please do still get in touch even if you see a date unavailable. I’m more than happy to discuss these directly with you on a case by case basis. Whether your dog loves a nice long walk, playtime with their favourite toys, plenty of cuddles, basic training, or simply having some company during the day, I’m happy to tailor my care to suit their personality and routine. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, daytime companionship and overnight house sitting. If you’re heading away for a night or a longer trip, I’m also happy to provide extended stays so your dog can remain relaxed and comfortable in the familiarity of their own home. I’ll make sure they’re well looked after, given lots of love and attention, and kept to their usual routine as much as possible. My aim is always to make your dog feel happy, safe and cared for, while giving you peace of mind that they’re in experienced and trustworthy hands.
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, I love every single dog I meet, no matter how bizarre, shy or crazy they are. I treat them as if they’re my own whilst also keeping their safety and happiness as my first priority. I’ve also been in Tanzania volunteering at Moshi dog rescue for the past three months helping with dog walks, grooming, feeding and general cleaning withinn in the sanctuary. This experience has just made my love for dogs even more intense. I work part time as an on call care manager, but I have plenty of time outside of work. I can also drive, so I’m happy to commute to wherever your fur baby is! I keep the owners home cleaner than they left it and clean up any mess whilst having fun with your pup! I will send regular photo/video updates to ensure you they’re in safe hands. I make sure that your home is fully secure and will not leave your dogs unattended for long periods of time!
“Loki loves Maddie and it’s such a good feeling knowing your dog is in good hands. Before the walk, I mentioned that Loki had just had a bath. Immediately, Maddie started thinking of a route that wouldn’t be muddy. She’s very conscientious and reliable.”

“Can’t recommend Heather highly enough. Looked after our boy so well - a real home from home for him! Communication was great and we really appreciated the photos and updates of him enjoying himself! Thank you!”
“Annie & Mitch were amazing sitters. They looked after out our husky for a night in the heatwave and were kind and thoughtful planning earlier and later walks and lots of frozen treat enrichment. We had lovely pup dates and photos. We’d highly recommend them thank you 🐺💖”
About: Hello, we're Hannah and Josh! Dogs have been part of both our families since we were children and a home without a dog in it has never felt quite right to us. Two years ago we got our goldendoodle Benji, and the adventure of raising a puppy began. We took him to puppy classes and keep his training going day to day, so we're comfortable with young, bouncy dogs and happy to stick to whatever commands and routines your dog already knows. We're an active couple who love countryside walks, trips to the park, and plenty of games of fetch with Benji. We both work from home, so your dog will have lots of company throughout the day and won't be left alone for long periods. We've also been on the other side of this app. When we go away, Benji stays with a sitter, so we know that nervous feeling of handing your dog over to someone new. We also know how reassuring it is to receive a photo of them fast asleep on the sofa or happily out on a walk. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, settled, and well cared for. Every dog is different, so we'll always follow your lead on food, walks, personality, all of it! We want your dog's stay to feel as close to home as possible. Josh and I both work from home full-time, so there will always be one of us at home throughout the day. Your dog will have plenty of company and will become part of our daily routine. We already take our Goldendoodle, Benji, out for walks every day, so your dog will simply come along too. Whether they enjoy long countryside walks or prefer something shorter and slower, we're happy to adapt to whatever they're used to so we can keep their routine as familiar as possible. We know every dog is different, so we'll always follow the routine that works best for them. If they have set mealtimes, a bedtime routine, are crate trained, or prefer to sleep in their own space at night, we're more than happy to accommodate them. Just let us know beforehand, and we'll do everything we can to make their stay feel familiar, comfortable and stress-free. Your dog's safety and comfort will always be our priority. We have experience raising our own Goldendoodle, Benji, who is now two, and we know how important it is for dogs to feel happy, settled and understood in a new environment. Before any stay, we always encourage a meet and greet so you and your dog can meet us, explore our home, and make sure both dogs feel comfortable with each other. Benji is a very friendly and playful dog, and we want every dog that stays with us to feel like they are really welcomed. Benji also has a profile on Rover that you can check out! We have a secure, enclosed garden with fencing, giving dogs a safe space to enjoy some fresh air and play. Before your dog's stay, we'll always ask about their individual needs, including any allergies, dietary requirements, personality traits, boundaries, and anything else that helps us care for them in the best way possible. Our aim is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your dog is safe and treated as part of our family while they're with us.
“With it being Ambers first time away from us she she joined our family, we couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful, warm, friendly and playful environment for her to stay. Beth, Dan and Darcy really did make it a home away from home for her. So much so she didn’t want to leave lol! Beth and Dan are so lovely and even met with us before booking to make sure it was a right match for us all. During our time away Beth kept us up to date with messages and pictures of Ambers stay 🥰 It was so reassuring in knowing our not so little pup was in great hands and paws while we were away 🥰”
“Vicky looked after our four month old Vizsla all day today and did a brilliant job! She kept in contact with me throughout the day and took excellent care of our very lively puppy. I would highly recommend her!”
“Daniela was so lovely and warm, Luka was immediately at ease in her home and I was very happy leaving him in her care. She sent me updates and photos and Luka looked super relaxed and happy in them! He came home very reluctantly after clearly having a great time. Would not hesitate to recommend her :)”
“Anna was really helpful looking after Sasha last minute. She was well looked after and was tired from the walks and playing, and enjoyed her stay! Would highly recommend! Thankyou.”
“Halley & Ed have looked after our dog, Dora, twice in a short space of time, and we couldn’t be happier with the care they’ve given her. They are both fantastic, and it’s clear that Dora absolutely loves staying with them. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in safe, caring hands while we’re away. Thank you both so much for taking such great care of Dora. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you!”
“Amy was great! She was extremely friendly and Ruby took to her instantly. Amy was really reassuring and kept us updated with some lovely photos. We will definitely use her again when needed. Highly recommend!”
“This was Vincent's second short stay with Tia and Tom, and just as before we were delighted with how well he was looked after. The pictures we were sent are a lovely touch too. Thank you.”
“Kristen was absolutely brilliant with Bilbo She welcomed a meet and greet session and made sure Bilbo was comfortable with her pets. I instantly felt comfortable in leaving our four legged family member in her care. She kept me updated with pics and how he settled on the first night. I would strongly recommend Kristen and would be looking to re book in the future.”
“Sarah was very welcoming from the start. She and her family all love dogs and embraced mine with all their little quirks and foibles. A relaxed home where dogs are warmly invited to be part of her family. Thank you very much indeed.”
“Stewart looking after my dog fantastically well for 10 nights. He is very communicative and provides frequent updates and lots of photos, all showing how much Bruce enjoyed his stay. Highly recommended.”
