“Rebecca was amazing, saving me at the last minute and not only figuring it all out with no guidance but also dealing with my cat who was absolutely not friendly to her in the slightest! Really good communication, made sure my girl was fed and clean and just overall brilliant! Couldn’t recommend enough! :)”

About: I've looked after friends dogs for years and am a huge dog lover looking to spoil your pet when you can't. Playing fetch and going for walks. Im retired, fit and looking for more time with my favourite animals. I'm pretty much available 7 days a week. With a big park right around the corner I'm also looking for a walking partner. I have a back yard and can crate your pet if needed. They are free to roam around the house as if it's their own home.

About: I’ve always had pets and have loved many an animal. I understand that entrusting your pets to another can be very tricky so i’m happy to answer any questions you may have I am very flexible with my work and as such i’ll be able to accommodate all your needs and wants re your pet care :) I would always prefer detailed instructions when it comes to pet care especially where medication is required I always ensure walks are on lead unless specifically told otherwise I will always use the same brand food you would usually feed your pets

About: Back in India, I have the joy of being a pet parent to two amazing dogs—a small, affectionate Shih Tzu and a large, gentle White Retriever. Having these two wonderful companions has taught me so much about the unique needs and personalities of different breeds, and I’ve become comfortable and skilled in caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I understand the peace of mind every pet parent seeks, especially when they need to be away from their beloved pets. I know firsthand how challenging it can be to find someone trustworthy to care for them, and I want to offer that assurance to other pet parents. My goal is to make their experience worry-free, so they can feel at ease knowing their dogs are in safe, caring hands. Since moving to the UK, I’ve missed my dogs deeply, but my love for dogs remains as strong as ever. Spending time with dogs brings me a joy that’s hard to put into words. I believe every dog deserves patience, attention, and respect, and I take pride in providing a safe, comforting experience for them. I’m dedicated to creating moments of happiness, whether it's through a relaxed walk, a playful fetch, or simply giving them time to explore and sniff. For me, dog care is about more than just tending to their needs—it's about building a connection, understanding their quirks, and making them feel loved and secure. I’m here to ensure that pet parents can travel or take a break with peace of mind, knowing their furry family members are in good hands. Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine, bringing structure and joy to my days. I set aside dedicated time each day for walks, play, and bonding, ensuring every dog I care for gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. My weekly routine includes visits to local parks and dog-friendly spaces, making sure each pet has a balanced mix of activity and relaxation. When caring for pets in my home, I create a comfortable, safe environment where they can relax, play, and feel at ease. I stick to a routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep them settled and happy. In a pet owner's home, I follow their established routines closely to make the experience as familiar as possible for the pet, ensuring their needs are met with consistency and care. My focus is always on providing a loving, attentive, and stress-free experience, whether they’re in my home or theirs.

About: 2025 UPDATE: Hi to all my lovely current clients and future clients! Just a little update that I have decided to try to focus on boarding and therefore stop taking on any more house-sitting requests for the foreseeable future. If you have not booked with me before and are interested in the house-sitting services, please consider the option of boarding as I would love to take care of your fur babies in my own home! It is kennel-free and a home-from-home experience where your pets are allowed on all the furniture (if they are allowed at home of course!). I have a small garden and the lovely Chalkwell Park just across the road from me as well as the beach around a fifteen minute walk away. I would be more than happy to arrange a meet and greet so that you can bring your pup(s) to my home to see where they would be staying. Also, the bonus is that my boarding services are cheaper than my house-sitting services! Please reach out if you have any questions! :) I have lots of experience taking care of pets (my own as well as others). I have been taking care of pets for the past eight years which involves me boarding dogs at my own home and staying in client's homes and taking care of their pets whilst they are away. I have taken care of cats, dogs and a house rabbit so far! I am very confident with all types of animals and have a lot of experience with them (especially cats and dogs) so you can rest assured that your pet would be in safe hands. I absolutely love animals; I am a vegan for this reason so you can also rest assured that I would treat your pet(s) as my own and take great care of them and provide them with lots of love whilst you are away. I always send some photos of your pet(s) each day whilst taking care of them so that you have peace of mind that everything is okay and so you can relax and enjoy your holiday knowing your fur babies are happy. I am an extremely clean and respectful person and I have had many of my house-sitting clients say that their house was cleaner when they returned than they left it! I have always had pets growing up. My friends used to call me Dr. Dolittle as I had every kind of pet you could think of throughout my childhood and my teenage years! Over the years I had cats, dogs, fish, birds, African snails, ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits, mice, hamsters, a bearded dragon (lizard), and even pigmy goats! You could say my childhood home was extremely pet-friendly haha! I always enjoyed spending time with animals and taking care of them which has always stuck with me in adulthood. Regarding insurance, I am fully insured outside of Rover which includes public liability insurance. I work full time from home for an Australian company so I do pet-sitting alongside this. I have very flexible working hours which works well alongside my pet-sitting business as I can ensure I can tend to pets and walk them during the day etc. I live in a lovely first-floor flat in Westcliff-on-Sea which has a small garden. I can take dogs out for two walks per day and more often for shorter toilet breaks during the day. When we are back at the flat I can create a nice cosy sleeping area for them to relax and chill in. I provide a kennel-free boarding experience so your pets can move freely around my home and I also am happy for them to sleep in my bed if this is something they are used to doing at home. I have a super king size bed with a low bed frame so there is plenty of room and it is safe for them to get up and down from it as it is low to the floor. I can provide a safe and loving environment for your pet. Unfortunately, due to having close neighbours and my sister who lives with me and works from home on the telephone during the day, I am not able to board any dogs that have a habit of barking a lot so I would have to come to your home to look after them if they do tend to be quite barky pups!

About: I’ve taken care of pets of every kind since I was 10. Hamsters, Gerbils, Guinea Pigs, Chickens, Dogs, Cats and Goldfish. I've never had any problems with my pets or anyone else's.

About: I've looked after and trained my family dogs on my own since age 9, and have owned dogs of all sizes from all sorts of backgrounds. Very comfortable with big dogs I work part time on Wednesday and Fridays but with enough work I would look to give this up to pursue pet care full time. I will converse with you upon contact to figure out requirements for your pet specifically and tailor each visit depending on your needs. Happy with crating dogs, cleaning litter trays, cleaning garden of waste, I will also hand feed dogs with trust and time and patience.

About: I have always grown up with dogs and even looked after friends and family member's dogs. They really are part of the family and I try to take them everywhere we go. I believe dogs are happiest when they trust the human they are with which is why I always demonstrate that I am a confident dog handler so both you and your dog are relaxed as can be. I currently work in the City but I am working towards starting my own dog walking business and thought this is the perfect way to build a reputation and get my name out there! I have grown up with dogs, currently I have two Beagles who are FULL of life but I love taking them on long off-leash walks in the countryside and I would love to be able to do the same for other dogs when their owners aren't able to! As I am new here, I will happily have an initial 1:1 with you and your dog(s) so we can lay out some "ground rules" and I can get to know you and your dog, and you and your dog can get to know me as trust is so important for everyone involved.

About: I have been caring for dogs from a young age, providing pet-sitting services for friends, family, and neighbors. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, bathing, and house-sitting for dogs of various breeds and temperaments. These early experiences allowed me to develop a strong foundation in dog care and an understanding of their diverse needs. When I moved out of my family home, I was finally able to adopt my own dog, Loki. Loki is an energetic and lively dog who requires regular exercise and consistent attention. Since bringing him into my life as a puppy, I have successfully trained him in various areas, including house training, obedience, and loose-lead walking. Our bond and mutual understanding have grown through this training, and it has enhanced my ability to work with dogs of all personalities. Additionally, I had the privilege of caring for my cousin's dog in her later years. She had several health challenges, and I provided her with the special care and attention she needed until she passed. This experience taught me invaluable lessons in managing the health and well-being of senior dogs. Through these experiences, I have developed a deep understanding of animal behavior, health requirements, and how to ensure a pet’s emotional and physical well-being. I am dedicated to offering reliable and compassionate care, ensuring that each pet I care for feels comfortable, loved, and well-attended to. You can count on me to provide the highest standard of care for your dog. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide dedicated care for dogs on a regular basis. This schedule allows me to balance my professional responsibilities with my passion for animals, ensuring I have ample time for daily walks, play, and companionship. My part-time hours are carefully structured to ensure that I can enable for your dog to receive consistent attention, exercise, and emotional enrichment. This arrangement enables me to be fully present for the dogs I care for, offering them a reliable and loving environment throughout the day. In my home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets, even though I live in a flat. I ensure that your dog receives plenty of exercise and bathroom breaks by taking them on regular walks throughout the day. I live by the sea which is perfect for enriched walks/runs, and don’t worry if your dog gets too muddy as I am always happy to bathe them with your consent. These walks I offer are tailored to meet their energy levels and help them stay happy and healthy. While I do have a crate at home, which I can use if necessary, I generally don’t anticipate needing it, as I can be present to supervise and ensure your dog feels comfortable. My dog is friendly and sociable, but I understand that not all dogs get along with others. If your dog is not comfortable around other dogs, I can make arrangements to care for your pet without my dog being present, by taking my dog to my family home during your dog's stay. Ultimately, I strive to create a calm and secure environment that meets each pet's individual needs, whether it's in my flat or your home.

About: I grew up with dogs and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. From belly rubs to long walks, I treat every dog like I would with my own, with patience, affection and treat (with your approval, of course). I will make sure your dog is well looked after and I will send you regular updates so you're in the loop. I can take dogs for walks when I am working from home, in the morning, at lunch time (12-2:30) or in the early afternoon/evening. I am available to dog sit Monday, Wednesday or Friday, in the evenings or on Saturday and Sunday (as required). The pets can relax in my living room or kitchen and I can also let them have access to my garden which is fenced and off the road. Whether they are in the house or the garden, I will of course keep an eye on them at all times to make sure they are safe.
