“Highly recommend Christina! She took care of our brood of two cats and two dogs splendidly, one of them being a recently rescued sensitive sighthound. She is very communicative and sent us lovely updates. We’d gladly book her again in the future.”

“Fanny jumped in to help me last minute due to a conflict. Zuva is very excitable and jumpy. Fanny took that in her stride and immediately made him feel comfortable. Almost immediately he was comfortable enough to play with her and fell asleep as well. Fanny was so patient and kind and I am so glad she had a great time with Zuva.”

“Joanna arrived exactly at the agreed time. She enjoys her job and is enthusiastic, caring for both our dogs . Kept us informed with daily photos. We will be happy to use her again if the need arises”

About: Hi all, I live in Peckham with my 2 cats, Gina & Steve 🐈⬛🐈⬛ (in my profile pic!) I work from home most days so I can be pretty flexible around your dog's needs. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend, just get in touch! PS: I have a DBS check from Dec 2025 as I do volunteering. :) I work in the office two days a week and remotely for the rest, which gives me a lot of flexibility around your pet’s needs. On remote days, I’m home throughout the day and can provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. Even on office days, I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets are well cared for, with visits or walks arranged as needed. Overall, I’m able to offer a reliable and flexible routine to suit you and your pet. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and personality to help them feel safe and comfortable. In a pet owner’s home, I stick closely to their usual schedule (feeding, walks, and playtime) so that everything feels familiar. provide a calm, safe space with plenty of attention and companionship. I always prioritise safety, cleanliness, and treating every pet as if they were my own.
“Emma is such a lovely and loving girl! My dog, Tonino, takes a while to warmup to people and he’s very attached to us. He’s also very delicate and Emma made sure he was really well looked after, she sent regular updates and gave him lots of cuddles! We left him with Emma and within the hour they were besties. She’s coming back tomorrow for more puppy love and we can’t wait!”

“Sophie was amazing! She was fantastic with our two cats and really took good care of our flat whilst we were away for a wedding. Plenty of photos morning, day and night so we were regularly updated on how they were. Huge 10/10!”


“Bella is the best! They are a reliable communicator and made me feel so at ease before and during my booking. They sent the best daily pictures. My cat was relaxed and happy when I got home. Bella was the perfect fit. 10/10 recommend ”

“Nicole was a very good cat-sitter for Natalie. I returned to see a very calm, relaxed Natalie. I would have liked a lot more check-in (at least twice a day with images) - often had to check in - but this is a small thing. She was also tasked with giving Natalie tablets and was able to do this competently and on time. Thank you, Nicole!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Michael and couldn’t recommend him more highly. From the very beginning, communication was clear, reliable, and reassuring, which made a huge difference while we were away. We particularly appreciated the regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Both our pets were relaxed, well looked after, and clearly fond of their sitter by the time we returned. We would absolutely trust him again in the future.”


About: I am a 26 year old literary assistant so can give humans excellent book recommendations (cats tend to be less interested). I live with three flatmates and am unable to have a cat of my own in London so would appreciate a wee cuddle. I have owned rescued cats in the past and have loved them very much. My cats have been of various temperaments from an affectionate older lady who loved attention at all times to a half feral kitten who chose sparingly when she would give you affection. So I’m used to all sorts of personalities! I have currently cat sit for families I know and made close relationships with their cats, dogs lizards and giant African snails so am comfortable looking after a wide variety of pets!
“Keltie was so sweet with our 11 week old puppy Mabel and looked after her so well. Keltie shared updated and photos so we knew Mabel was having a lovely time and we felt really reassured. I’d highly recommend Keltie and would definitely reach out to her again if we need someone to watch Mabel in the future!”


About: Please include your postcode when making an enquiry so that I can see your approximate location. I’m a pet lover and work freelance from home, so I can easily be flexible with visit times to suit your needs and those of your pet. Part of my freelance work involves property inspection for clients, so I am familiar with accessing properties, securing them after my visit and holding/looking after keys. I grew up with cats living at home, and have had several of my own in a previous flat, so I am experienced in caring for both indoor cats and those with access to the outside. I’ve also recently started dog walking and home visits for dogs. I’m based just south of the River Thames, in London SE16, so my local areas are Rotherhithe, Shad Thames, Surrey Quays and parts of Bermondsey. I’m more than happy to consider sitting requests outside of my local area (e.g. Wapping, Limehouse, Old Kent Rd and further afield) although these are likely to involve additional fees (to cover transport costs and/or extra travelling time). This is dependent on where you are based and the logistics involved in getting there. I have a bike, car and easy access to London Overground. My work is home‑based, so I’m able to offer flexible visit times throughout the day. This lets me keep to your cat’s normal routine and provide dependable care. I care for pets in their own home so they stay relaxed and secure. I follow feeding, litter and medication routines exactly, and I’m also happy to offer safe, structured dog walks when needed.
“Veronika agreed to look after Tony on very short notice. Communication was great, got lots of cute photo updates and was reassured by her knowledge of dog training. Would definitely book again.”

“Aldijana was brilliant with our whippet. So very friendly and experienced with animals. Our dog warmed to Aldijana straight away and I could see from the photo updates what a fun day they had together! Our dog is often very shy with new people but not with Aldijana and wanted to play with her. Aldijana was early - which for an 8am start was very impressive! I had regular updates throughout the day which were lovely! Thank you so much, we will definitely be booking regularly with you!”

“Anna was excellent as ever - not only taking amazing care of Bob and all his oddities, but also looking after the house and garden brilliantly too. Bob clearly adores her and is more than happy when Anna comes to stay ☺️”

Christina came to look after Jo for a day visit and she did an amazing job. Jo is an extremely anxious dog, but Christina made her feel comfortable enough that she was able to take her out for a walk on their very first day alone together, which is a huge achievement! Christina was super communicative throughout the day, kept me updated and left the apartment exactly as she found it. She’s clearly great with dogs and I felt completely at ease having Jo in her care. I’d absolutely love to book her again and would highly recommend her.

Gem is kind, considerate, communicative and goes above and beyond for you and your pet. She clearly has a huge love for animals and wants them to feel taken care of and loved, and Alfie very obviously felt that. A truly wonderful sitter and would highly recommend! Thanks so much Gem!

Milena was a fabulous sitter for Gingerbread - she was completely understanding that Gingey is a little slower to trust new people and gave her all the patience and care to make sure she was comfortable while we were away. Milan kept us super informed throughout the weekend of how they were getting along and was very clean and respectful of our place while she was staying there - Would highly recommend Milena as your sitter and we hope to have her back to look after GB again in the future!

Natasha is a really great dog sitter. She looked after our dog Otto recently for just over a week. He’s a very anxious dog but she formed a bond with him very quickly and he had a great time hanging out with her and going for walks. We received lots of pictures and updates everyday and when we got home you could tell both Otto and the house had been very well looked after - I wouldn't hesitate to use her again. Thank you Natasha :-)

We used Jacob to look after our Golden Retriever puppy for three weeks while we were away on holiday, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Jacob was fantastic at keeping us updated throughout the trip, sending regular photos and check-ins that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Sonny was clearly in safe, caring hands and had a wonderful time. Reliable, attentive, and wonderful with dogs. We would gladly book Jacob again in the future!

So lucky to have found Mary on Rover! She's warm, very easy to communicate with and took wonderful care of our girl Georgia! As Georgia is still a puppy, we also really appreciated how patient Mary was at bedtime and how mindful she was of Georgia's routine. Hope to have Mary back again and would highly recommend :)

Laura was fantastic throughout the stay and I had absolute confidence in how well she looked after our cat and dog. I am slightly concerned that our dog bullied her into playing too much so it may not have been very restful for her. Both animals were extremely happy on our return. Thank you Laura

Mara was fantastic looking after our Rottweiler Diesel for the day. From first request she was quick to respond, and was flexible to make sure the arrival time worked for everyone. She took great care of Diesel and sent plenty of pictures during g the day. We will definitely use here again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take good care of their pet.

Sarah was so lovely and professional and she looked after Harley so well. I felt very comfortable with her taking care of him. She provided me with updates and followed all instructions perfectly. Sarah turned up on time, took Harley for a couple of walks during the time she was here and I think Harley really enjoyed his time with her :) I would definitely ask Sarah to take care of Harley again and I would 100% recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. Thanks again Sarah, really appreciate it and hope to see you again soon x

Dominik looked after my dog Raffi for two days. Raffi had surgery a few weeks ago so needed careful handling. Dominik was fantastic with him and Raffi adores him. Dominik provided regular updates through the day and I felt totally comfortable leaving Raffi in his care.
