About: Jenny (me) and my husband Chris provide a true home-from-home experience where every dog is treated as part of the family. With two caring adults looking after your pet, they’ll receive plenty of attention, companionship and affection throughout the day. We’ve both grown up around dogs and have always had a passion for animals. Caring for dogs has been a big part of our lives, and we’re experienced in understanding their different personalities, routines and needs. Our home has a fully secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor play, and we have our own friendly 9-month-old puppy who enjoys meeting other dogs. We understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so we take the time to get to know them and provide care that’s tailored to their individual needs. We know how reassuring updates are while you’re away, so we’ll send regular photos and messages, giving you complete peace of mind. Our goal is for your dog to feel happy, loved and relaxed from the moment they arrive until it’s time to go home. We’re committed to building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners, creating a safe, fun and caring environment that you can trust. We’ve both grown up around dogs and have always had a passion for animals. Caring for dogs has been a big part of our lives, and we’re experienced in understanding their different personalities, routines and needs. As owners of our own young puppy, we’re confident caring for energetic dogs, reinforcing good routines, providing plenty of exercise, enrichment and, of course, lots of love and attention. We’re comfortable following feeding schedules, maintaining walking routines and sticking to any instructions you provide so your dog feels as settled and comfortable as possible. We believe every dog deserves patience, kindness and individual care, and that’s exactly what they’ll receive when they’re with us. Because both of us are at home, pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. We’re able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day, whether that means regular toilet breaks, walks, playtime in the garden, feeding, or simply keeping them company and making sure they feel settled and relaxed. Our weekly routine is flexible, which means we can adapt to each dog’s needs and follow the schedule they’re used to at home. We’re comfortable sticking closely to feeding times, exercise routines and any special instructions you provide, so your dog feels safe, happy and well cared for while they’re with us. We have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs, and we understand that some are confident and playful while others may be shy, nervous or need a little extra time to settle in. We always take a calm, patient approach and let each dog adjust at their own pace, making sure they feel safe and comfortable in our home. Our home also has a secure fenced garden, giving dogs a safe space to enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. We’re careful to follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding times, exercise routines and any special requirements, so your dog receives consistent care and feels as close to their normal routine as possible.
“Perm worked really hard to accommodate our two huskies and he gave them plenty of attention, exercise and care, and gave us great feedback. I felt very comfortable with our dogs in his capable care. He's a natural with dogs. Would certainly rebook in the future.”
“From the moment of requesting a stay to the moment of collection Kira has been nothing but amazing. We met prior to the stay and it turned into an hours chit chat, throughout the stay I received videos and photos and lots of updates. I know Bernard had an absolutely amazing time! Kira is nothing but amazing, I recommend her a thousand times over!”
“Raffles had a great time with Judson - she stayed for two nights and came back very calm and happy. Judson was great at communicating and providing updates. I would definitely be happy for my dog to stay with him again!”
“I cannot thank this lady enough, helped me out last minute I would recommend her service 100%, my puppy molly had an overnight stay, I was sent photos and video which was of great comfort to me as my puppy is 14weeks old and first time I had left her she was well looked after and I will definitely be using her services again”
“Chloe was amazing and couldn’t have been more helpful. We needed help looking after Ottie to attend a funeral and Chloe was kind, flexible, organised … Ottie had a wonderful time and when we arrived looked very happy. She had been looked after brilliantly. We couldn’t be happier with the care she received. I would highly recommend Chloe.”
About: Looked after family pets for 19 years (we've had four cats and one dog!). Walked neighbours dogs, and looked after friend's cats whilst they are away. I am available to cat and dog sit on weekends, as well as take dogs out for short or long walks and even runs if your dog is active! At home, I have a small patio but plenty of parks less than a five-minute walk away. I have a usual running route through fields of 4-5km from my house.
“Kate and her partner looked after my dog, Charlie, for a full week, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. They kept me updated throughout with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. During the heatwave, they made sure Charlie stayed cool and comfortable and took him for early morning walks before it got too hot, which I really appreciated. They listened to everything I asked and followed all of my requests perfectly. They also picked Charlie up and dropped him back home, making everything so easy. On top of all that, their price was very reasonable and great value for the level of care Charlie received. They are both such lovely, caring people, and it was clear Charlie was very well looked after and happy with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kate again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, genuinely caring, and great value. Thank you both so much! Charlie cant wait to come back 🐾”
“We’re a bit behind in leaving the first review, having just dropped Hector off for his second stay. He stayed the first time a little over a week ago and returned home very tired, comms were great and a lovely family who looked after our fur baby. Today we dropped him off for his second visit, he was so excited jumping out of the car and crying at the front door wanting to get into the house. A good sign always! Thank you again to the whole family 🥰”

Alfie loved his stay so much he didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend, especially for nervous dogs. They did a brilliant job.”
About: I work for the Emergency service so unable to have a dog of my own which is why I want to give your dog the care and love when you go on holiday/hospital stay/whether you just need a break. I have grown up with dogs and have experience with all different breeds. Particularly: sighthounds,pugs/frenchies/spaniels/golden retrievers but are happy to look after any breed. I live on the edge of the new forest so have plenty of great walks near by! Plenty of quiet walks if your dog isn’t a fan of other dogs! I’m happy to accept dogs who stay in bed with their owners as I know they can be difficult to get looked after. DBS checked ✅ Dog/child/pet free home ✅ Secure enclosed garden ✅ Great walks in the new forest ✅ Happy to take multiple pets of same household ✅ Able to collect/drop off ✅ Any questions please get in touch 😊 I work shifts, so my availability is based on my days off. So your dog will have my full time and attention and can and will be taken on adventures with me. Happy to work with your dogs comfort levels and schedule. If they usually sleep in bed with you that’s fine, if they sleep on the sofa that’s fine! If they are crated that’s also fine. Whatever works for them 😊 happy to come to yours and complete your dogs normal routine.
“Fiona had our cocker spaniel Dexter for the day and he absolutely loved it! She took Dexter on plenty of walks, and he spent time playing in the garden with her lovely dog Oscar! Dexter is usually quite shy but he warmed to her and Oscar straight away and felt really comfortable in her home. Fiona was extremely accommodating with our booking her communication was second to none, we got plenty of pictures and updates of Dexter throughout the day! 5 stars all around, we couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Our dog Lora had a fantastic stay with Dawn and we really enjoyed receiving all the photos and videos of her playing with her new friends. Thanks Dawn! I bet Lora can't wait to come back!”

“Thank you Kerry. We’ve had a traumatic week as we had to say goodbye to our beloved boy cat Simba on Monday, Tiger Lily’s constant companion for nearly 14 years 🥺 She’s been very needy all week so I was concerned about leaving her so soon after losing her brother. I talked to Kerry at length before her visit & we decided to still go ahead. I needn’t have worried, Kerry took such good care of Tiggy - doing all her favourite things for her. Tiggy can definitely be a bit “spicy” with people she doesn’t know but Kerry is so calmly confident with her that she quickly has become affectionate with her. I would highly recommend Kerry as she is entirely reliable & dependable as well as a total cat lover. You just know your pets are in safe hands with her.”
“Gemma is the ideal cat sitter- we felt very reassured and happy to leave our cat Dylan with her. She is super prompt with replying to messages and a pleasure to communicate with. 100% plan on booking Gemma to come round again in the future. ”
About: I've had four family cats since I was four years old. I love going back to see, feed, and cuddle them but unfortunately don't have a cat of my own now that I live elsewhere. Experience feeding and sitting with friend's cats whilst they are away.
“Csilla was absolutely amazing. She came to meet the cats the day before my departure, she was so calming and I trusted her straight away. My 3 cats loved her, and I couldn’t have asked for better cat sitter. Regular updates and lovely pictures. Definitely will be booking her again and I 100% recommend her. ”
“Albert is a bit of a scaredy cat and hides when different people come in, Freya worked wonders with him and sent us a video of him taking a treat from her hand, he obviously trusted her enough to do this, thank you for looking after my boy Freya, I will 100% book you next time and who knows he might even let you stroke him 😊 xx”
“Charlotte was amazing with our two cats! She gave regular updates at our request and really helped us be at ease while we were away :) She also came to visit them before the required booking!”
About: I am a dedicated and experienced cat sitter with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, from newborn kittens to senior and elderly cats with complex needs. My lifelong passion for feline care means I understand not only the practical aspects of looking after cats, but also their unique personalities, behaviours, and emotional needs. Throughout the years, I have provided attentive, compassionate care tailored to each cat. I have experience with feeding routines, administering medication, maintaining litter hygiene, and ensuring a safe, calm environment. I am particularly confident in caring for kittens who require extra monitoring and socialisation, as well as older cats who may need patience, gentle handling, and support with age-related conditions. I pride myself on building trust quickly with cats, including those who are shy or anxious, by respecting their space and letting them feel comfortable in their own time. I am reliable, observant, and committed to maintaining the routines that help cats feel secure while their owners are away. Whether it’s providing playtime and enrichment for energetic cats or quiet companionship for older ones, I ensure every cat receives personalised care, attention, and affection. My goal is always to give owners peace of mind, knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Ruth has been absolutely amazing. While I was away a leak occurred in my flat and Ruth was super understanding and accommodating with the issues that came up with this. The photos Ruth sent of Bob and Piper were amazing. This was the first time I had left my cats to go on holiday and Ruth's daily updates helped ease my anxiety. ”
About: I grew up with cats my whole life; first Poppy, who was with me from birth until I was 13, then Toby, who joined the family and was with us until I was 23. Between them, I’ve got 23 years of first-hand experience with feline quirks, routines & personalities, from playful kittens to settled seniors. 😅 As founder of Happy Walks Co., I now offer fully insured pet visits for cats alongside and I treat every cat in my care like they’re one of my own.
“Alexis was the perfect pet sitter for my little zoo. So efficient and caring. I really appreciated her being available at short notice and how she communicated throughout. Will definitely hire her again.”
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life ranging from terriers to huskys to border collies. I've raised and trained many puppys, kittnens, rescue dogs, rescue cats and working dogs. I also have experience with many other animals. I will always care for your pets like my own and provide them with anything they want or need.
About: I’ve been bought up around big to small dogs so understand the different needs of sizes and breeds from big bullmastiff to little terriers. I have a springer spaniel of my own who requires a lot of attention, mental stimulation and muddy walks. I also have worked with other animals including horses, and cows (calf rearing) so am definitely not shy of weather, mud or hard work and give good attention to detail when caring for animals. I’m currently working part time and am available Friday to Tuesday to walk, board and visit your pets with plenty of love when you’re not able too I have a big garden around an acre big which is secured and fenced for your pets to run and sniff around with my spaniel to keep them company or to be kept separate from your own. Big area inside my house for your dogs to get cosy in or a separate room/crate if that’s what they prefer.
“David was friendly and reliable. Both my boys were safe and well looked after. David was sure to keep me updated on how my boys were and looked after my home too whilst I was away. Will book again!”
“Kate was absolutely fantastic! Really friendly, great communication from the start, lots of love and fuss for the dogs. Sent photos and videos with updates. Couldn’t rate Kate highly enough and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you x”

“Absolutely outstanding daycare from Matthew and Ximena. They were perfect hosts for my boy and he couldn’t have wanted anything better in such a homely environment. All his needs catered for and I felt at ease from day 1 with regular updates and photos of the days activities. Charlie met their dog Teddy today who is a gorgeous dog and was a great role model for Charlie to learn from. I would definitely recommend Matthew and have already rebooked some more days in the new year. First class 🥇🐕🐾”

“Jaffa loves her visits with Alexis and always comes home tired from all her fun. Coco has been very patient with our puppy and teaching her how to play nicely with other dogs. Alexis keeps us well informed throughout the day of what Jaffa has been up to with pictures and what their walks looks like. She also listens to all our routines and asks and is very flexible with timings due to work commitments. We will 100% be using Alexis in future, thanks so much for your help so far :)”
“I’m not sure my dog wanted to come home! Blossom had a smashing time with Laura and her dog. She was exhausted when I took her home and has definitely made new friends. Laura stayed in touch during the day and sent me a video of Blossom doing zoomies! I’d definitely recommend. Thank you Laura.”
About: With over 12 years of experience in pet sitting, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. My passion for animals started early, and it’s only grown with each family and pet I’ve had the honor to support. I understand that leaving your pet behind can be stressful, which is why I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for your furry friend. In addition to my pet sitting experience, I’m trained in dog first aid. This knowledge allows me to confidently handle minor injuries, spot signs of illness, and provide immediate care if needed. Your dog’s health and safety are always my top priority, and you can rest easy knowing they’re in capable hands. From playful pups to senior dogs with special needs, I tailor my care to fit your dog’s individual personality and requirements. Whether it’s a long walk, medication administration, or just some extra cuddle time, I’m here to ensure your pet feels happy and well-loved while you’re away. I have dedicated myself full-time to pet care, making it my life’s work to ensure every pet I look after receives the best possible care and attention. As a full-time pet sitter, I am always available to meet the needs of pets and their owners, offering flexible scheduling and personalized care. My commitment means I am not just a sitter but a reliable companion for your pets, always attentive to their needs—whether it’s a morning walk, meal times, or simply being there for comfort and companionship. Being fully immersed in pet care allows me to build strong, trusting relationships with the pets I care for, as well as their families. I treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on providing a nurturing and stress-free experience, no matter how long or short the stay. My dedication goes beyond basic pet sitting; it’s about understanding each animal’s unique personality, needs, and routines, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure at all times. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I provide a warm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where they can relax and enjoy their time, just like they would at home. My home is designed with pets in mind, offering plenty of space to explore, play, and rest. Whether it’s a cozy corner for a nap or a backyard for playtime, I ensure pets have access to everything they need to feel comfortable. I maintain a routine that mirrors their home environment as closely as possible, from meal times to daily walks and play sessions. This helps reduce stress and anxiety, especially for pets that may be nervous in new surroundings. I also provide one-on-one attention, ensuring each pet gets ample love, interaction, and exercise according to their needs. Additionally, I keep a watchful eye on their health and well-being. I’m experienced in administering medications and handling special dietary requirements, so your pet’s care is never compromised. With 24/7 supervision, your pet will never be left alone, giving you peace of mind knowing they are safe, loved, and well cared for in a home environment.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my life both young as a puppy/ kittens and older. All well looked after during my time with no issues I work full time from home. I do have a male Lhasa Apso and our routine works well around my job, so he is never left at home alone for too long. My house is secured with fenced garden. I also live near a country park which is great for dog walking, giving the dogs freedom to have a good run.
About: I have owned and been around puppies, adult dogs and cats for over 15 years. I have experience raising puppies and dogs over 1 year old, and have spent many hours looking after my MIL and friends’ cats. I first used Rover as a customer to find help for my whippet puppy, and would now like to share the love and provide the care that I once received. I work part time in healthcare, and my hours are incredible flexible, allowing for bespoke service. I will always try and help out where I can. I live in a sizeable end terraced house with plenty of fields and walking routes nearby. My garden is private and fenced, allowing for a safe and secure environment.
“Vanesa was amazing, it was such late notice and she replied so quickly. He had an amazing time with the walks and all the attention, she provided so many updates. Would definitely recommend her. Thank you”
“Calypso had an amazing day with Louise and Cho. We had lots of pics and vids of her playing ball and swimming. At pick up time Louise talked us through her day. As she is still young, it's good to know how she gets on in a new environment. Booked in again for August. Calypso can't wait 😉”
About: My wife (Emma) and I love animals. We both grew up in homes with rescue dogs and other pets. We now have our own dog, Joni, who we rescued. We have learnt so much on her recovery journey back into being a "normal" dog - she's a very loving, quirky, gentle soul! We both work freelance and can be flexible with working patterns, so there is usually one of us around at home to look after your dog. I primarily work from home and my wife also sometimes works from home, so we can accommodate 2 walks a day, as well as play and cuddle breaks. We like to spend our evenings watching movies, cuddled up with Joni on the sofa. At the weekends and during time off work, we love going on long walks and generally being out in nature, come rain or shine. We are lucky to have lots of great walks near us and a couple of secure fields where we take Joni for a good run around. Dogs are welcomed as a part of our family when they come to stay. We have an enclosed garden and a peaceful loving home. We have one greyhound cross, Joni, who is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play - she is always very excited to have new friends over to stay. Joni is fully vaccinated, including kennel cough. We only take pets from one owner at a time to ensure everyone gets along and so we can focus our love and attention on your dog(s) and ours.
“Kraken had a lovely day with Aston and his lovely furry team (aka the pack). We are very happy with Astons caring , professional knowledge with Kraken and our family. We have found the right person to take Kraken to when we need a dog sitter”
About: We have over 30 years of experience in having and loving dogs. We have an older dog of our own who is very friendly and loves company on his walks. I am semi retired and have plenty of time to walk and exercise your dog. Our home backs on to a lovely lake and open spaces. Our older dog Ozzie is very laid back and usually curls himself around me on our sofa. Your dog will be treated had part of our family and given a lot of love and attention. If they want to snuggle on the sofa that is absolutely fine with me. My husband will also give your dog an early morning walk if they are partial to that. We have a garden which is fenced off and we also have a dog flap so if I have popped out your dog will not have to wait to be let out for his or her toilet breaks. Our dog is very friendly with other dogs and we will make them feel safe and comfortable in our home from home.
“Lorrin is very friendly and responsive - we had to change our timings slightly and she was relaxed and accommodating! She has a lovely home and garden and we know that our pup Luna was cared for during the time she spent with Lorrin :)”

About: I’m Tash and I’ve always had a love for dogs. I have grown up with various breeds from rescue backgrounds and have a lot of experience in caring for and walking friends and families dogs outside of the Rover platform. After moving out of my family home, I am looking to continue offering dog walking and drop in visits through the Rover platform. I’m an active person who loves being outdoors, so long walks are my speciality! I understand the importance of maintaining a dog’s routine, so you can trust that your pet will be in good hands while you’re away. I am a hybrid worker and spend 2 out of 5 working days working from home. When I am at home I am available for morning walks, lunch time walks and evening walks. I am also available for weekend walks. We have a fenced terrace garden without grass. However, just outside of the back gate we have plenty of grassy areas and close by to many lovely walks in fields.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my family and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and have experience looking after reactive dogs, taking a calm, patient, and safety-focused approach at all times. I understand how important routine, clear communication, and trust are, and I always aim to make pets feel secure, understood, and well cared for. I work from home and am self-employed, which means I have good flexibility during weekdays and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m mainly available Monday to Friday, but I can also do weekends with a bit of advance notice. I always try to be clear and communicative about availability so owners can plan with confidence. I live alone in the centre of town, which means pets are never left unsupervised and always have my full attention. My home is calm, non-smoking, and well suited to visiting animals. I also have a small, unfenced garden for fresh air and quick breaks, as well as lots of nearby options for both short and longer walks. I’m always present when caring for pets and take safety, comfort, and trust very seriously. I can also provide a crate if necessary but happy to have pets on the sofa/bed with me if that’s what they are used to!
About: Hello, My name is Brandon and I've loved animals my entire life. I was raised with dogs and since graduating university I've had pets. My wife and I have a 15 year old mutt who I rescued 14 years ago and an 8 year old cat we found hit in the street 7 years ago. I have experience with large dogs, as our late Newfoundland was 150 pounds. And I am very experienced with older pets and understand the importance of patience. Our old Newfie lived to be 12 years old, and our other boy is nearing 15 years old. So, plenty of patience with older friends. Our home features a lovely, fenced-in garden for your family member, a spacious house, and I am home far more often than I am away, meaning your pet isn't simply locked up and forgotten. They are with our family constantly. I'm a full-time stay at home father as I work on a master's degree online. So I'm home extensively affording me plenty of time to be present with your loved ones at our home. I will treat your family the same as I treat mine, with ample love and respect. You can rest assured knowing your furry friend will be loved and cared for attentively.
“Laura was great with George. He isn't the easiest dog to walk because he is reactive to lots of things. Laura was calm and very positive about their time together. He had a great walk and crashed out for the rest of the evening.”

About: I have owned and been around puppies, adult dogs and cats for over 15 years. I have experience raising puppies and dogs over 1 year old, and have spent many hours looking after my MIL and friends’ cats. I first used Rover as a customer to find help for my whippet puppy, and would now like to share the love and provide the care that I once received. I work part time in healthcare, and my hours are incredible flexible, allowing for bespoke service. I will always try and help out where I can. I live in a sizeable end terraced house with plenty of fields and walking routes nearby. My garden is private and fenced, allowing for a safe and secure environment.
“Rebecca is great - super communicative with everything, puts up with an oversized stubborn teenage dog and is really caring. Bjorn is always super happy after his weekly walk with Rebecca!”

Our mom has taught us everything we know about caring for dogs, ensuring they stay happy and healthy. We miss having a dog of our own and would love to share our home with your furry friends. We’ve always helped family and friends with their pets, and now we’re excited to help you with yours! Whether it’s a walk, a day stay, or a sleepover, we’re here to offer our time, love, and care. As there is three of us we are really flexible and can fit around when you need us! Monday to Sunday with some exceptions! Get in contact if you have any questions. We’ll be with your dog at all times, ensuring they’re comfortable, safe, and well cared for.

About: I have had dogs all my life and grown up with them in the home. I currently work too often to have one of my own so would like to offer my time to look after your pets at the weekend if you need! My parents have 2 sausage dogs I regularly look after, I have experience with newborn puppies from their litters and some training. If you need someone to sit and cuddle your dog whilst you’re out for the night or to walk them on the weekends whilst you’re away then please consider me. I currently work from home on Fridays and am often available Saturdays and Sundays. Unfortunately I work Monday-Thursday full time which is why I don’t have a dog of my own yet. I have a medium sized garden with a lawn and fencing and live near a good country park for walks. I know people with dogs I can walk in a group if your dog requires socialising. I don’t have any pets or children so if your dog requires more attention or a calm environment I can offer that.
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life ranging from terriers to huskys to border collies. I've raised and trained many puppys, kittnens, rescue dogs, rescue cats and working dogs. I also have experience with many other animals. I will always care for your pets like my own and provide them with anything they want or need. Im currently working part time (2 days a week) so i have plenty of time to look after your pet and give them all the attention and care they need. I will always keep an eye on your pets to ensure they are safe, healthy, and happy at all times. Nothing is more important then insuring they are being looked after at all times.
About: With over 12 years of experience in pet sitting, I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. My passion for animals started early, and it’s only grown with each family and pet I’ve had the honor to support. I understand that leaving your pet behind can be stressful, which is why I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for your furry friend. In addition to my pet sitting experience, I’m trained in dog first aid. This knowledge allows me to confidently handle minor injuries, spot signs of illness, and provide immediate care if needed. Your dog’s health and safety are always my top priority, and you can rest easy knowing they’re in capable hands. From playful pups to senior dogs with special needs, I tailor my care to fit your dog’s individual personality and requirements. Whether it’s a long walk, medication administration, or just some extra cuddle time, I’m here to ensure your pet feels happy and well-loved while you’re away. I have dedicated myself full-time to pet care, making it my life’s work to ensure every pet I look after receives the best possible care and attention. As a full-time pet sitter, I am always available to meet the needs of pets and their owners, offering flexible scheduling and personalized care. My commitment means I am not just a sitter but a reliable companion for your pets, always attentive to their needs—whether it’s a morning walk, meal times, or simply being there for comfort and companionship. Being fully immersed in pet care allows me to build strong, trusting relationships with the pets I care for, as well as their families. I treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on providing a nurturing and stress-free experience, no matter how long or short the stay. My dedication goes beyond basic pet sitting; it’s about understanding each animal’s unique personality, needs, and routines, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure at all times. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I provide a warm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where they can relax and enjoy their time, just like they would at home. My home is designed with pets in mind, offering plenty of space to explore, play, and rest. Whether it’s a cozy corner for a nap or a backyard for playtime, I ensure pets have access to everything they need to feel comfortable. I maintain a routine that mirrors their home environment as closely as possible, from meal times to daily walks and play sessions. This helps reduce stress and anxiety, especially for pets that may be nervous in new surroundings. I also provide one-on-one attention, ensuring each pet gets ample love, interaction, and exercise according to their needs. Additionally, I keep a watchful eye on their health and well-being. I’m experienced in administering medications and handling special dietary requirements, so your pet’s care is never compromised. With 24/7 supervision, your pet will never be left alone, giving you peace of mind knowing they are safe, loved, and well cared for in a home environment.
About: Recently adopted a dog of my own so taking a break from boarding as my pup is dog reactive at the moment. We are working on it- watch this space! Still doing walks, drop ins and house sits. Do feel free to reach out with any requests ☺️ As well as dogs, I care for cats and small furries. I look forward to meeting all your lovely furry friends. I work full time hybrid/remote. My whereabouts week to week can vary but do reach out and I can see where I can help! I can typically be flexible over weekends unless I've marked my calendar as 'away' I am more than happy to meet your pet before I care for them, to make sure they are comfortable around me and that you are happy and confident they will get the care they deserve!
About: Having had a ginormous golden retriever for 8 years (he sadly passed away last year) with plenty of personality and spirit getting him into all sorts of situations, I have plenty of experience. I am calm and loving and can think of no better way to spend my day than with a dog! I have previously dog walked and dog sat for friends and family for dogs of all sizes. I am an aspiring Dog Handler in the Police force. I always like to get out at least a couple of times a day for a walk or a run and miss taking my retriever with me for these excursions. So it would not impact my usual routine in any way other than that I would be blessed with the company of a dog! Despite being a second floor flat, we have an outdoor area that the dog can be taken. We live close to many green spaces and in a cul de sac which is very quiet off a residential road. I am a Police Officer so my shifts do vary, however this means I can offer short-term flexibility and availability at different periods of the week.
About: We are a semi retired British couple who love animals and have been full time pet/house sitters since May 2022. We are vegetarian, non smoking, and enjoy yoga, walking and travel. Together we have run a holiday letting business in SW Wales for over 15 years as well as courses for people suffering with Chronic Fatigue/M.E and stress related conditions. All of our therapy and holiday property lettings work has moved online now so we can work remotely from anywhere. This has allowed us the freedom to be full time house/pet sitters and we are loving it! We stay at pet owners homes and very rarely leave pets alone - particularly dogs. Your home will be kept tidy and spotlessly clean at all times. We are DBS checked and insured. Numerous reviews (all 5*) available on request.
About: I’ve been bought up around big to small dogs so understand the different needs of sizes and breeds from big bullmastiff to little terriers. I have a springer spaniel of my own who requires a lot of attention, mental stimulation and muddy walks. I also have worked with other animals including horses, and cows (calf rearing) so am definitely not shy of weather, mud or hard work and give good attention to detail when caring for animals. I’m currently working part time and am available Friday to Tuesday to walk, board and visit your pets with plenty of love when you’re not able too I have a big garden around an acre big which is secured and fenced for your pets to run and sniff around with my spaniel to keep them company or to be kept separate from your own. Big area inside my house for your dogs to get cosy in or a separate room/crate if that’s what they prefer.
About: I love all animals really but especially cats, as I grew up around them - we had 2 Burmese cats, one of which lived to be 17yo. Our current cat, Bolly, emigrated with us from the U.K. to Australia and back again! I have also had a hamster and fish. As a teenager, and as an adult, I've often helped friends and neighbours out when they're away by looking after their pets - cats usually but I have also looked after dogs, Guinea pigs, chickens, birds, fish and rabbits too. I'm calm and patient - I very much let them come to me when they're ready to. I make sure your pet has been given attention and affection (if they want some), as well as fed, watered, and had litter cleaned etc. I'm happy to play and pet them, or just sit and be around for a while, depending on what they like. I send updates and pictures daily so you can relax and enjoy your time away. I'm a fan of Jackson Galaxy and his work on cat behaviour, which has helped me to gain a better understand of cats, and I use a lot of his techniques with Bolly, as well as the cats I look after. This has meant I've been able to befriend many nervous, shy cats using those skills. I've also got some experience with raw food as I've transitioned Bolly to a raw food diet so I'm happy to handle raw meat if needed. Whilst in Australia, pet sitting was my paid work and I’m keen to do that again here as I loved meeting so many different pets, and being able to have a little time away from home. I’m a stay at home parent to a 5yo and that means I’m flexible with my hours and availability. Often I am available before my husband goes to work, and then again from 5pm when he’s finished. On days he’s working from home, I can also do visits during the day. If your pet is ok with kids, my son loves to help too and that means I can come anytime. Weekends are easy as my husband isn’t n working. For house visits, I usually greet your pet first by letting them come to me, or checking any known hiding spots. Once I’ve said hello, I usually play with them, then feed them, and then I clean any litter trays whilst they eat. After that, I often sit on the floor or chair and hang out or play depending on their needs. I’m also happy to check post, water plants and put bins out. For pet walks, I greet them first, then get them ready with their leash and collect doggy bags for any dog poo. After the walk, I’ll check on your pet, give any treats/food/water as required before I leave.
About: I'm fully insured and DBS checked. I'm a real animal lover and have taken care of a variety of pets since I was a child. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs and since then I have owned fish, chickens and another dog, so I have a lot of experience with various animals. I have experience training a dog, and also in giving medicine. I'm currently working full time during the week, so I have lots of time during the weekends and evenings to look after your beloved pets. I have a dog of my own but he isn't a big fan of long walks, which is such a shame as I am! So if you have a dog needing a good long walk, I'd love to take them! But if your dog needs just a gentle walk with a lot of sniffing opportunities, I am very practiced at this. I am very professional and trustworthy and will treat your home and pets with respect and care. I will follow any rules you have for your pets whilst I am inside your home and/or out walking them. I have a DBS check and I'm fully insured.

“Perm worked really hard to accommodate our two huskies and he gave them plenty of attention, exercise and care, and gave us great feedback. I felt very comfortable with our dogs in his capable care. He's a natural with dogs. Would certainly rebook in the future.”
“From the moment of requesting a stay to the moment of collection Kira has been nothing but amazing. We met prior to the stay and it turned into an hours chit chat, throughout the stay I received videos and photos and lots of updates. I know Bernard had an absolutely amazing time! Kira is nothing but amazing, I recommend her a thousand times over!”
“Chloe was amazing and couldn’t have been more helpful. We needed help looking after Ottie to attend a funeral and Chloe was kind, flexible, organised … Ottie had a wonderful time and when we arrived looked very happy. She had been looked after brilliantly. We couldn’t be happier with the care she received. I would highly recommend Chloe.”
“Kate and her partner looked after my dog, Charlie, for a full week, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. They kept me updated throughout with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. During the heatwave, they made sure Charlie stayed cool and comfortable and took him for early morning walks before it got too hot, which I really appreciated. They listened to everything I asked and followed all of my requests perfectly. They also picked Charlie up and dropped him back home, making everything so easy. On top of all that, their price was very reasonable and great value for the level of care Charlie received. They are both such lovely, caring people, and it was clear Charlie was very well looked after and happy with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kate again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, genuinely caring, and great value. Thank you both so much! Charlie cant wait to come back 🐾”
“We’re a bit behind in leaving the first review, having just dropped Hector off for his second stay. He stayed the first time a little over a week ago and returned home very tired, comms were great and a lovely family who looked after our fur baby. Today we dropped him off for his second visit, he was so excited jumping out of the car and crying at the front door wanting to get into the house. A good sign always! Thank you again to the whole family 🥰”

Whatever works for them 😊 happy to come to yours and complete your dogs normal routine.
“We felt that Willow had a lovely stay with Laura. Laura seemed to be very professional with amazing approach to our lab who can be a challenge at times ? We would highly recommend Laura for dog sitting and we will definitely use her again.”
“Chloe was very proactive, she sent us lots of photos and updates when we were away to show what our dog got up to, He really enjoyed his time with her. We highly recommend her!”
“We have had an incredibly positive experience with Eleanor. Her communication and organisation is fantastic and we know without question that the level of care that our dog Bear received whilst we were away was the best of the best. Eleanor is clearly looking to make the experience for both pet and owner as best as it can be and we couldn't be more grateful for her. Thank you for taking such good care of our precious Bear.”
“Dee had a wonderful stay with Louise, enjoying the company of Cho. Excellent communication with Louise both prior to and during the stay. Highly recommend and thank you so much.”
“Really easy to make arrangements with and easy drop off collection. Maya my 20mth old Springer spaniel X huskey felt at home straight away with their 2yr old dog Maia! Nice to see the two dogs playing over the weekend via photos. Thanks Katheryn and family. I will be requesting to have my dog go stay with them again.”
“Alberto was so well looked after and had an absolutely great time. Sam and Emma were very responsive to our questions and sent us lots of updates and photos over the weekend. Thank you !”
“Chloe and her family gave Max a home from home loving experience. We came back to a happy healthy dog, pleased to see us but in no rush to leave Chloe! In extreme temperatures they had clearly looked after him including taking him for a swim to the beach. Chloe sent me photos and updates which were much appreciated. We will definitely be booking with Chloe again.”
