House Sitting in Southampton

“Laura helped us out with a house sit for our springer spaniel ‘Barney’. We cannot recommend her enough. Laura made everything easy as we had not used Rover before. Barney was well looked after and we will be using Laura agin. Thanks Laura especially from Barney”

“Abigail looked after our German Shepherd X Rottweiler dog, Teddy, between 9 and 15 April, and the service we received was exceptional. Communication with Abi was great right from the stage of our enquiry, throughout the six days of the dog-sitting booking, up to and including the last day. Abi made sure she found out everything relevant about Teddy prior to the start of the booking, and listened carefully to our requests, she even visited us twice prior to the dog-sitting, to make sure everyone was happy . We received photos and updates from Abi throughout our time away, but it was obvious from the first visit (the introductory meeting) that Abi was right at ease with our boisterous boy. One really nice bonus was that our home was left by Abi in a really clean and tidy state, which we were very grateful for. Will definitely book Abi in the future again, and can highly recommend her!”

“Fernanda looked after Rumi for the day and was perfect! She came over prior to the booked day to meet us and get familiar with Rumi's routine and he took to her instantly. Fernanda wasn't afraid to ask questions and kept me updated whilst she was here with photos and messages which was really appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fernanda and also, book her again to sit Rumi.”

About: I've had 2 cats now for the last 3-4 years and working from home have looked after them. Additionally I have looked after a small puppy when it's owners were away in the past and my parents have a dog that I have looked after/taken for walks etc. With 2 cats I have to make sure they are fed daily, along with ensuring they are well groomed, are up to date on their treatments and they litter is clean. Ensuring they have everything they need e.g. food/water/clean litter. Making sure they get play time and rubs if they want them and ensuring their eating/litter areas are clean.

“Tammy looked after our Border Terrier, Moose, for a couple of nights. We wanted to have a 'trial run' for longer stays to give Tammy the opportunity to get to know Moose and familiarise herself with our house. We thought our trial run was a roaring success. Tammy was a delight to have in our home and Moose clearly adored her. We felt confident that Tammy would respect our home, and care for Moose as we would ourselves - no mean feat as he is a bit neurotic and epileptic. We have now booked another, longer, stay with Tammy and we will be able to go away knowing that Moose is in very safe and kind hands.”

About: Hi, I’m Danny Aller I’ve been around animals my whole life — my grandma ran a kennel business, so from a young age, I was helping care for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’d help her groom, feed, and love on every pup that came through her doors. Over the years, I’ve had pets of my own too — dogs, cats, and even a couple of raccoons! Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle, or just keeping your pet company while you're away, I’ve got it covered with care and experience you can trust. I work full time 8am/3pm so after work I have plenty of time to care/walk dog/cats/any pet I’m honest reliable passionate for all animals alike. To make sure your pets get the best care I will provide them with my undivided attention at all times meaning any of my personal pets will stay at home. While walking I’ll make sure the safety of your pet is my first and only priority. Meaning keep other animals away making sure I’m in a close walking distance at all time. Like stated before safe/secure/comfortable is my biggest concern for the owner also the pet.

“Vishu did a great job looking after Sonny my Samoyed. When I got home he was very happy and relaxed. Vishu kept me updated regularly and was always polite and reliable. I would not hesitate to use Vishu again”

About: I have cared for many different animals growing up, from dogs, cats, and bunnies, to hamsters, rats, birds, and currently tortoises. I have also helped my Grandfather hand-rear calf's when separated from their mothers, as well as helping birth them when necessary. I have lots of knowledge about caring for many different animals, as well as being trusted to care for housemates' pets, neighbours' pets, and family pets. I adopted my very own kitten in 2018 and he is thriving, and have had 7 pet rats of my own across the course of 5 years. I am also no stranger to cleaning up after animals, as this is something I have been doing ever since owning them. Furthermore, I was an active member on BorrowMyDoggy, and walked plenty of dogs whilst being on the site. I have recently finished a college diploma in social science and I am due to begin University in September to study Forensic Psychology. Until then, I am doing my best to fill my summer with paid work that fits me and my passions. I am available 24/7, excluding the odd day for anomaly appointments and such. As summer is creeping up on us, I am sure many of you will require sitters for your pets whilst you are on your beautiful holidays, which I would be grateful to do for you. I cannot reside pets in my current home due to house sharing; however, should you choose me to care for your animals in your own homes, I will follow strict regimes if necessary (such as gates, crates, no pets on sofa's or in certain rooms). For animals such as tortoises, I understand fresh water and roughly 2 hours of heat lamp per day is needed (unless otherwise is specified).

“Olivia was brilliant with Brandy (my very large Carpathian Shepherd) and made me feel very comfortable leaving her. Olivia kept me updated with pics and videos. Very happy and I'll definitely be booking again! 😊”

About: Recent graduate currently doing remote work so pretty flexible. I have taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old. I have always loved playing with and hanging out with dogs. I was very excited during the summers when I knew we gonna look after the dogs of family and friends. Sometimes even upto 5-6 at a time. Basically, I am a massive fan of dogs and have always adored them and looked for ways to form a connection with them. I believe it is important to build a bond and trust between people and dogs to have a truly amazing and honest experience with them. I have 2 yorkshire terriers Harcos, and Will. Both trained by me. We had lots of different types of dogs in the extended family. Both big and small breeds. I have fed them, walked them played with them and even trained them. I have also actively managed their health with vet appointments making sure they take their medicine and that they had all their vaccines up to date. I also did amateur mantrailing with Will for a few years. I miss him so much(he is home with my family thankfully still with us) I am available for morning, lunchtime and evening walks around 1 hour each. Monday-Sunday. I work flexibly so I can walk almost any time as long as it is planned beforehand I always believe in creating a safe environment for all pets to make sure they feel this is their space too. I often spend time together with them whether its on the couch cuddling and watching a movie or just lying on the ground and enjoying some soft petting and belly rubs. However I also respect the different owner's preferences so can adjust based on the specific rules if required

About: I'm an American who just moved over from the states. I have house and pet sat for 8 years on and off, both for family, friends, and a local dog sitting service. I am super friendly and flexible when it comes to the needs of your pets. I currently am only working part time, so I can give all the love and time in the world to your pets. I am open to working early hours as well. I first take the owners wants and needs for their pets first and apply them. For example if they have a fenced in yard and only want their pets to be let out there, then I follow that. I ask what the dog is comfortable with so that I never put them in a situation of stress and uncertainty.

About: I have taken care of our two family dogs from puppyhood to old age, including one who is partially blind and deaf. I have done the same for our two cats, and have also taken care of friends’ cats and dogs over several nights. I love all pets and enjoy heavy walks and heavy chilling alike! I’m currently on holiday from university, so have a lot of free time to dogsit or catsit! Any time of the day or night, and any day of the week, with short notice, is fine by me. I can essentially hang out with your pet all day if needed, or can just pop in for walking, feeding and company. I can read dogs and cats well and understand if they are stressed or restless.
