“Nina has looked after our Pomeranian Lizzie a couple of times now and has been a great sitter each time! Lizzie was well looked after and I could see she had a happy time with Nina when I came home. I recommend Nina to any dog owners!”

“Fanny is a great sitter with a very kind and gentle nature that calmed Ruffles down and reassured her nervous nature. She immediately took to our dog and it was happiness at first sight. She took her on a few walks, exercised her insatiable energy and kept her company. Fanny was the perfect choice and we would highly recommend her services.”

“We were so happy with Lu’s dog and house sitting! She sent regular updates, pictures and videos and kept Penny occupied and happy throughout the weekend. Would definitely book her again!”

“Filip took great care of Uni and the house - even Uni is a naturally anxious pup he warmed up to Filip quickly and was really comfortable with him. Detailed updates and quick and easy communication. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for a dog sitter! I’m sure Uni is already looking forward to his next stay :) thanks Filip.”

“Aimee was lovely! She came to the rescue when we found ourselves without dogcare at short notice took wonderful care of Goose. She was really communicative, sent us loads of photos and it’s clear Goose had a great time.”

“Couldn't be more happy with Emma's petsit! She took such amazing care of my dog. She took her on lots of walks and gave me lots of updates so I never had to worry. She also looked after my fish for me. She treats all animals with such great care. I would definitely book her again and would recommend her to others!”

“Absolutely amazing! If you're wondering about whether having Hazel to look after your dog, book her right now (before I tale all her availability). Hazel cared for Mabel over a long weekend, staying at our home while we went away. Mabel can be a bit challenging, and Hazel was amazing, and also sent us regular updates. She was a total star! (I'm not sure I can say the same for Mabel, though...)”

“Absolute pleasure reliable,a lovely girl and would trust 100% with my dog. First time I have used her and would definitely book her again. I have also sent her details to all my doggie owner friends.”

“This was his Olivier first booking with my anxious pooch Patch, and he did an excellent job. He followed my instructions, including letting Patch off lead in the park; he also communicated well throughout the day, and Patch was clearly relaxed and happy when I got home. I was very pleased and will definitely book him again!”


“Sherlyn came to stay at our house to look after our little Rey. Her calm and confident manner meant that Rey was reassured and quickly settled after we left. It was great to have Sherlyn at our home and we recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

“Charlotte was wonderful—very caring, detail-focused, and incredibly responsible. She took great care of my cat Turbo and made everything worry-free. I truly appreciated her thoughtful and reliable help”

“Vitoria was punctual, very friendly and made every effort to make sure that Maisie was at ease and comfortable. We would be very happy to have Vitoria look after Maisie again and would highly recommend”

“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.”

“Sam is brilliant and Mac had a fantastic time. Berner's can suffer from separation anxiety but Sam was so good with Mac this was not an issue at all. I think Mac was sad to see Sam leave! I cannot recommend Sam highly enough.”

Had a really lovely experience with Johanna. It was the first time leaving my dog with someone and she instantly made me feel reassured and confident to leave him. She dealt with his separation anxiety really well and I was able to relax whilst out, knowing he was in good hands. Johanna provided updates and was really responsive. I would definitely recommend Johanna and would love to have her look after our dog again.

Jhoana was fantastic with Billie. We chose her because she was a star sitter for her reliability. We were worried about being let down at the last minute. We had no reason to worry, Jhoana met Billie in the week before we went on holiday and Billie loved her. We returned after 10 days away to a tidy house and a happy healthy dog. We wouldn't hesitate recommending Jhoana to anyone looking for a great dog sitter. I think Billie misses her already.

Matthew arrived dead on time and immediately bonded with my 1 year old Bichon Frise. Matthew was kind and helpful, took my dog for a walk and looked after him for the evening. Apparently my dog and Matthew had had a great time together. It was reassuring for me to know my dog was in a safe pair of hands who genuinely has a love for dogs. I cannot recommend Matthew more highly. Thank you

Adrian stepped in at the last minute and was absolutely fantastic. He was flexible, very communicative, and attentive to all of Bongo’s specific needs as a senior dog. You could tell he genuinely cared — Bongo was in great hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book him again.“

Vittoria was such a fab cat sitter! She sent us regular updates (both pics and videos) where it was easy to see that our cat Clara was super content and having a lovely time with her. She also kept our flat in great condition which was very much appreciated too. Would 100% recommend Vittoria :)

Megan has watched my cat and two large dogs twice now. One of my dogs is reactive and the other is getting a bit elderly. I was instantly at ease when we met Megan and after seeing her engage with them. She's even won over my cat, who can be standoffish until he's comfortable. Her communication is detailed and thoughtful, and I always look forward to the many pictures she shares! One of the dogs had a slight medical emergency during her last stay. I was far away in the US and was limited in my ability to help, but she handled everything perfectly. On top of all of this, I trust her to safely manage my reactive dog and exercise good judgment with him. She's happy to provide plenty of mental stimulation in addition to exercise, which is exactly what he needs! It's such a relief knowing the animals and the house are in such good hands while we're away. It would be hard to have anyone else watch them!

Max is an amazing sitter We know him as he was also watching sometimes over our older beagle ( 18 years) he managed her medication perfectly and also adjusted to her heeds in her last period of her live we always felt save to leaver her with him Now with our new puppy beagle he is amazing Wile sitting her we learned her some cool tricks She loves him He is very respectful of the house rules and leave the house in perfect state We can highly recommend
