“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.”
“Adjian was really organised and a pleasure to deal with. Stanley obviously had a wonderful time as the second time he went to stay he rushed inside without hesitation - very unlike him! Highly recommended”
“Joseph was very responsive to messages and amazing with my 3 year-old collie cross Storm. Storm is a high energy dog so he needs a lot of attention and Joseph took him for lots of super long walks and sent some adorable pics of a very happy dog! Very impressed, would book again 😊”
“Brigitte has been an absolutely brilliant sitter for our slightly nervous dog. She took time to let him settle and get used to his new surroundings and took him on many wonderful walks. She kept us fully updated on how things were going and sent us lots of wonderful photos on a daily basis. Brigitte followed our directions regarding administering medication and cared for him in every way. I have no hesitation in recommending Brigitte as a truly 5* sitter. She could not have done more. We returned to find a happy and well cared for dog.”
“Basil had a great stay with Nicola and was extremely well cared for. I’m a bit of an anxious dog-mum and Nicola was kind and reassuring and sent me pictures and updates throughout his short stay. Basil is looking forward to his next stay in a few months!”
“Mango and her flatmate were fabulous with Otto. They were very good at following the instructions for his food and medication and kept me informed regularly about how he was getting on. It looks like he had an amazing time, from all the photos Mango sent! Otto came home relaxed and happy. Thank you!”
“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.”
“We can’t thank Melissa and family enough for looking after Chester, from the initial meeting we knew he would be in safe hands. We had daily updates and pictures definitely will recommend to family and friends and will be booking again in the future. Thank you Chester is one tired boy this evening ❤️”
“Chris was so welcoming and reassuring, sending some great photos to show our dog was enjoying his holiday as much as we were. It meant we all had a wonderful time and would have the confidence to do it again. I think Jack will really miss his new friend Lottie!”
“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.”

“Alison & Tom made our dog feel so comfortable and relaxed while we were away. We had daily updates of all the activities they got up to and felt very happy that our dog was having such a good time. We would use them again in a heartbeat!”
“Macarena did an amazing job taking care of our Bernese Mountain Dog Rowdy for 4 nights. Her communication was brilliant throughout with plenty of photos of her and Rowdy having a great time together. Rowdy came home happy and healthy and I would definitely use Macarena again in the future or happily recommend her to anyone who asked.”
“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!”
“Henri had a fantastic time with Lily and her family. She was so well cared for we are very glad to have found Lily and will 100% use again. She has a great environment for pets and I would highly recommend Lily if you need someone to look after your pet.”

“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!”
“Lauren was great. The boys were both super happy and unbothered by our return which is a good sign. The house was left cleaner than we left it which is so nice after a long travel day. Communication was quick and easy and we can’t thank Lauren enough after she stayed an extra night after our flight was cancelled! Will definitely use again! Thank you!”
“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!”
“Ayla was fab at cat sitting for Tigs. She was easy to communicate with and sent us lots of photos/videos. Tigs was sick while we were away and Ayla let us know about this, confirmed there was no need to worry and cleaned it up. Would be happy to recommend her and book again in the future. Thank you!”
About: I’m a lifelong cat lover and would be really happy to look after your cat while you’re away. I’ve grown up with cats and currently have my own rescue cat, who is 9 years old. We’ve had him for the past 6 years, so I understand how important it is to know that your cat is happy, safe and well cared for while you’re away. In the past I've also had dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters, in general I love the idea of being around pets. But most of all I love cats. I live in central Bath and work from home several days a week, which makes it easy for me to fit in regular home visits while you’re on holiday. I’m happy to visit 1-2 times a day to feed, provide fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime and, most importantly, plenty of attention and affection! I will keep you informed daily and send you pictures and videos of your cat. I know that every cat has their own personality and routine, so I’m happy to follow your usual instructions and give your cat the care they’re comfortable with. Whether your cat is playful and sociable or prefers a little peace and quiet, I’ll make sure they feel relaxed and cared for in their own home. I've had a nervous cat for 6 years so I'm really good at reading their signals and will be patient and give enough space to your cat.
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.
“Thank you Emily for looking after Missy so well while we were away on holiday. Emily visited Missy twice a day to check on her with her food (1 tablet per day) water and litter box. Would definitely recommend Emily.”
“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 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.
“Julia just looked after our two demanding ragdoll cats for over 2 wks. She gave us huge peace of mind, sent updates and truly cared for our pets. Lovely lady, lovely to work with. Very happy to recommend. Jason”
“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!”
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.
“Ania looked after our cat Kingsley for the first time this weekend. She was a great communicator, clear and friendly, both before and during the sit. We came home to a very tidy house and a very content cat. Thank you Ania!”
“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”
“Coral was a lovely cat sitter for our Storm. Coral sent messages and photos throughout the day. I could tell from the photos that Storm felt comfortable and at ease. Coral obviously has a natural and calming way with animals and in tuned to her needs (and she’s a Bengal!). Coral was also incredibly respectful of our house and left it in an immaculate condition. We will definitely be booking Coral again. Thank you 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.
“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!”
“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!”
“I really appreciate Natalie — my puppy enjoys going to her place and is super relaxed when I pick her up. Natalie has two lovely senior dogs that I’m sure can’t wait until my puppy is grown up!! Communication is always clear and prompt. Natalie has a willing, can-do attitude and is very knowledgeable about all things dogs.”
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.
“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: Hi! We're Emma, John and Marco, and we'd love to welcome your dog into our home. We live in a spacious apartment in Bath Riverside with a secure gated communal garden and plenty of parks for walks and playtime. We both work from home during the week, so your dog will enjoy lots of company and attention. As dog owners ourselves, we know how important it is to find someone you can trust. Having used sitters for Marco, we understand the anxieties associated with leaving your loved one with us and we will be sure to send you photos and updates throughout their stay. We've raised Labradors from puppyhood and are experienced with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Marco loves making new friends, from Chihuahuas to German Shepherds! We both work from home, so your dog will have company throughout the day and won't be left alone for long periods. Our daily routine includes walks in the morning (7–8am), at lunchtime (12–1pm), and again after work. And when the sun's out, we're always looking for an excuse to get outside for even more adventures. Marco has free run of our home, and any visiting dogs are treated the same. We keep our home clean, tidy and dog safe, with fresh water topped up throughout the day, and a robot vacuum keeping on top of the fur. As experienced dog owners, we're careful to keep food out of reach, tidy away cables, and make sure the house is puppy-proof. Your dog's safety is always our priority, so we only allow off-lead walks in secure, enclosed areas.
About: Hi, my name’s Ella and I’m based in Bath! I’ve always loved animals and have experience walking and caring for dogs throughout my life. I grew up with dogs, now have two of my own, and have also walked dogs through previous work. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and individual needs. I also have experience cat sitting and am happy to care for all kinds of animals. I understand that every animal has its own unique personality, routine, needs, and preferences, and I always adapt my care to suit each pet as an individual. I have experience pet sitting and administering medication when required. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority, so I carry out thorough checks after every walk, including checking paws and coats, and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and hydrated. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, companionship while you’re away, or plenty of love and attention, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. My aim is to provide reliable, compassionate care so you can have complete peace of mind while your pet is with me. I’m looking to build a full-time career working with animals, something I’ve always been passionate about. I previously cared for pets alongside my work as a nanny, and I’m now excited to make animal care my full-time profession.

As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I’ll treat every animal with the same love, patience, and care as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I have experience caring for anxious and nervous dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and building trust at each pet’s own pace. I have a secure, fenced garden with both grass and patio areas, as well as access to nearby fields for enjoyable walks and exercise. I understand that every animal is unique, with their own personality, routine, and individual needs. I take the time to get to know each pet so I can provide personalised care that helps them feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. I always follow owners’ instructions carefully and treat every pet as if they were my own.
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!

I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well looked after. 🐾
About: I've cared for dogs for 17 years, starting with family pets and moving onto neighbours and friends. I have experience with both large and small dogs - my first was a border collie, and my most recent a chihuahua. I have skills in senior dog care, as my last three dogs have all been 8+. I am particularly fond of medium-large dogs, though I'll never shy away from a petite pal! I'm currently working from home 4 days a week, and am available most evenings and weekends for walks and sittings. I regularly take longer walks in the evening, and am often out and about over lunchtime as well. I have a pet-safe apartment and access to a dog-friendly park. I live in a quiet area and can offer my full attention, which is perfect for those anxious or older dogs who need a bit of reassurance.
“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.”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life - big and small, from Dobermans to Dacshunds! Along with this, I owned my own dog (a wonderful border terrier, Mabli) from a pup, so I completely understand the responsibilities, requirements and most importantly fun that comes with owning a pet. I have cared for family and friends' pets often throughout the years including elderly and disabled dogs. You can rest assured that I will take care of your pet as if it were my own, and follow any instructions that you have conscientiously! I can work from home any time, and also have a dog-friendly office - which I can take your pet into (only if it suits them, of course). I will diligently ensure anything that could be hazardous or problematic to your pet be kept out of their way. I’ll ensure they’re made to feel as comfortable as possible whilst they are with me.
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.
“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!
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: I grew up in a home full of pets (from parrots and fish to a tortoise and dogs), so I’m confident caring for different animals and understanding their needs. As an adult, I’ve shared a deep bond with my own dog, which shaped my approach to providing patient, attentive and loving care. I also work part-time supporting a pet loss community, holding space for people grieving the loss of their pets and often preparing to rescue a new pet. This has deepened my appreciation for just how meaningful and unique each human-animal connection is - something I bring into the way I care for every pet. While I’m new to paid pet sitting, I’ve regularly looked after pets for friends and neighbours and always treat them as my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for weekday and weekend bookings, including daytime visits, morning/evening walks, and overnight house sitting. I can also accommodate longer stays and repeat bookings, and I’m happy to be flexible where possible for regular clients. Because of my flexible routine, I’m able to plan my day around your pet’s needs and maintain their usual schedule, making sure they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritise keeping their routine, environment, and sense of security as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication, and any specific care needs. I make sure pets are always supervised during visits and walks, and I’m attentive to their behaviour so I can quickly notice if anything feels unusual or needs attention. I also treat every home with great respect - keeping it clean, tidy, and secure while you’re away. I’m careful with doors, keys, and safety routines, and I ensure your home is left just as I found it. Most importantly, I aim to provide a calm, steady presence so pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment.
“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: I have trained both of my dogs since pups teaching them core skills like sit, paw, spin and speak. I also taught them both lead manners and toilet training. I have previously sat for dogs requiring daily oral medication. I’m currently working part time as part of the 3rd year of my University degree. I work full days Monday, Wednesday and Friday & afternoons on Tuesday & Thursday. I am almost always able to work remotely apart from a couple of in-person meetings on a Tuesday & Wednesday. However, if your animal is able to be left up to 3 hours, I can work remotely & only leave them for the meetings I have. Drop me a message to find out my availability as I will always do my best to be available for your pets! I will ensure dogs do not leave the house without a lead and will assess my comfort level with the security of your garden before leaving any dogs off leash in there. Dogs will be kept away from any hazardous foods or beverages and will be supervised at all times when I am in the house.
About: I grew up in a dog loving family and adopted and trained my own rescue dog from the age of 14. Bonding and connecting with a dog is something I dearly miss now I am away studying for my PhD. I would love the opportunity to look after your dog and provide a good standard of care for you. I am currently working a completely flexible 35 hour week so I am able to drop in regularly and dog walk daily on a time schedule that meets your needs. I am happy to dog sit in your house during the week and adapt to any specific details to give your dog the best care possible. I am happy to care for your dog in your environment and can adapt to your dog’s needs. I am familiar with high energy dogs and their demands. I understand every dog is different and I am able to adapt to each new personality. No matter the service requested, I will send regular updates and photos to make sure you know exactly what your dog is up to.
“So pleased i booked Sally to walk my dogs this week. Sally called around to see me the day before she began and was considerate with the walks during a week of exceptionally high temperatures. She always had their (3 dogs) best interest in mind. I can highly recommend her.”
About: As an owner of two older terriers, I’ve had lots of experience with high-energy dogs who also double as couch potatoes! ❤️ I’ve grown up with a whole range of pets, including dogs, puppies, cats, guinea pigs and gerbils, so I’m very comfortable caring for animals and building a loving bond with each of them. I’ve also spent plenty of time walking and looking after friends’ and family’s dogs and other pets, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs. Whether they love long walks, playtime or simply lots of fuss and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe and well cared for. I’m reliable, trustworthy and flexible, and I’ll always treat your pets as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can depend on, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in safe hands. I look forward to meeting you and your fluff-balls!🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I'm available for weekday, evening and weekend bookings, including last-minute requests where possible. This flexibility allows me to give your pet plenty of time, attention and care, whether they need a walk, a drop-in visit or overnight company. I'm always happy to work around your routine and will do my best to accommodate the times that suit you and your pet. I understand how important it is to feel confident about who you’re welcoming into your home and trusting with your pets. I always treat every home with respect, care and responsibility, and I make sure to follow any instructions exactly as given so your pet can stay in their familiar routine. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I take time to get to know each animal, their habits and any special needs they may have, so I can provide care that keeps them comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’m calm, patient and attentive, and I always make sure doors, gates and routines are followed carefully to keep your pet safe at all times. You can also expect regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing and feel reassured while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, calm and familiar environment where your pet feels secure and cared for in their own home.

Please let me know all instructions to keep your furry companion safe, including any extra daily precautions that I should take during my upcoming visits.

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.

“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: 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: 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 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 fenced garden, but it is also currently connected to my driveway, so for now I have some long 10m leads. This gives them the freedom to roam and explore the garden, we can play fetch, but we all know they are always safe on the lead and not able to run off for any reason. 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've cared for dogs for 17 years, starting with family pets and moving onto neighbours and friends. I have experience with both large and small dogs - my first was a border collie, and my most recent a chihuahua. I have skills in senior dog care, as my last three dogs have all been 8+. I am particularly fond of medium-large dogs, though I'll never shy away from a petite pal! I'm currently working from home 4 days a week, and am available most evenings and weekends for walks and sittings. I regularly take longer walks in the evening, and am often out and about over lunchtime as well. I have a pet-safe apartment and access to a dog-friendly park. I live in a quiet area and can offer my full attention, which is perfect for those anxious or older dogs who need a bit of reassurance.
