Stefano has been fantastic with Rufus. He has communicated with us promptly, clearly and honestly. He's chilled out around our pup who is full of beans, and Rufus has come back clearly having had a blast. Thanks Stefano! I would thoroughly recommend you to friends 😊

Yijae was amazing. She took our last minute request to drop in on Woody and listened and followed through on our many instructions to get into the house! She kept Woody thoroughly entertained and happy. Will definitely ask to have her back! Thank you ⭐️

About: Hello! 🐾 I'm your pet-loving neighbour in South London and I'd be delighted to care for your four-legged companion! I connect with animals very deeply and enjoy their company and the little adventures we go on together. We had two cats and one small dog at home when I was growing up and I loved spending time with them. I went on to work in a pet shop as one of my first jobs and in the past five years, working as a pet sitter in homes across the UK. During that time, I looked after indoor and outdoor cats (Maine coon cats, Bengal cats and everything in between), dogs and senior dogs (Wippets, dauchunds, chihuahuas, labradors). And I also looked after chickens, ducks and on one occasion, three cheeky ferrets! I only care for one pet at a time and I have a flexible schedule to adapt around your pet's timetable. I can care for your cat or dog at any life stage and am experienced with giving medication to sick cats and dogs. Feel free to reach out to me with your request or any questions you may have before booking. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend 🐈‍⬛ I'm currently working part-time as a personal assistant and visual artist so my schedule is flexible and I can adapt around your pet's timetable and needs! I usually visit the home of your pet but on the odd occasion, if you need to have an overnight stay in my home, I live on the second floor in a secure apartment with no other pets.

About: I took care of our family dog, a beagle-corgi mix for a year. I don’t currently have my own pet. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs. With me, your doggo will feel safe, cared for, and loved like family 💖 Pet care naturally fits into my weekly routine. I work remotely and spend a lot of time at home, so I’ve got plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and cuddles. The only times I’m usually out are Tuesday and Wednesday evenings for sports, but otherwise I’m around to give your doggo lots of attention and care 🐶💖 I live alone in a one flat bed flat on the first floor, and your doggo is free to go around my flat. They’re welcome to go on sofas and beds. I live two minutes’ walk away from Burgess Park.

About: I’ve taken care of friends and families dogs since I was in my teens. From walks, feeding, cleaning up after and playing with dogs. My aunt has four dogs who I dog sit often, all varied in age. I work remotely full time, so I have a flexible schedule whether it’s morning, afternoon, evening or at the weekend. All can be arranged. I live near a few parks - Telegraph Hill and Peckham Rye. I live in a big house with 3 girls who all love dogs as much as me, we have a good sized garden with a high fence. I have a fully remote job so I can be super flexible any day of the week - morning, afternoons or evenings or at the weekends. I live in a big house with 3 girls who all love dogs as much as me.

About: I've grown up with all dog types in my life – big greyhounds, small terrier mixes, 14+ y/o seniors, weeks-old puppies, and everything in between! I adore cats and other pets just as much. I'm happy to hang around to help with walking/exercise, separation anxiety, feeding times, potty breaks, and/or medication. As a postgraduate student, I have many weekdays and weekends available, and overnights are rarely a problem. Happy to commit to weekly, one-off, or irregular visits based on what's needed. My current flat does not allow pets, so I am eager to care for and entertain your furry friends as needed! Long walks in the neighborhood, energetic playtimes, potty breaks, feeding times, etc. are all well within my comfort zone. I have cared for senior dogs and administered regular medications, managed hyperactive puppies who play-bite, and kept a watchful eye over troublemakers and picky eaters of all species. Your pet will feel safe and cared for whenever I'm around!

Another fantastic experience with Michael! This is a repeat booking, and I am just as impressed as I was the first time. He came to my rescue at the very last minute, was incredibly accommodating, and made everything so easy. Having someone so reliable and flexible is an enormous help and an absolute pleasure. What has amazed me most is the bond he has built with Monty in such a short space of time. Michael shared videos of their walks, and I was genuinely gobsmacked to see how engaged Monty was. By day two, his recall was down to a T, he was happily playing ball, following instructions, and clearly focused on Michael. Given that Monty is still young and can occasionally get distracted, this was particularly impressive. Michael has a wonderful way with dogs. Monty absolutely loves him, and it is obvious that the feeling is mutual. I would not hesitate to recommend him and will certainly continue booking him whenever I can!

Melis and Hamza took great care of Arya, and she has already become Arya's favourite person by far! We can tell how much fun Arya must have had as Arya goes crazy around Melis. Melis is also very experienced which is very important to us as Arya can get anxious meeting other dogs. It is a real blessing to have found Melis and Hamza, and be able to entrust Arya with them :) Thank you so much!
