“Isabel was incredibly considerate and caring throughout the entire experience. My cat took to her right away and seemed completely comfortable in her company, which gave me great peace of mind. During her visit, Isabel sent us photos and updates, and she even checked in afterward to make sure my cat was doing well once we returned home. We were very relieved knowing our cat was in such good hands and couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Highly recommended!”
“Sophie is our favourite cat sitter and I’ll always recommend her. She sends detailed updates everyday with photos. Our cats are always relaxed with her and she doesn’t just feed and go, she stays with them and brushes them etc. also cleans up any mess and waters my plants. Couldn’t be happier :)”
“Roshonara she’s just a fantastic person, professional and has amazing communication skills. It was my first time having a pet sitter over and I would definitely recommend her and call her again. She didn’t just came and fed my cat, she cleaned, and she spent sometime with him in the most professional and caring way you could ever imagine. If you need someone and it’s your first time and you not sure ,just book in with her! 💯💯💯💯💯💯thank you Roshonara !”
“Mariam was a star - very personal, reliable and regularly sent updates and photos of her time with Charlie. Safe to say that Charlie had a great time! I'll definitely be booking Mariam again!”
“Christina was fantastic with Pico - warm, friendly, affectionate & fun. She kindly came to meet us the day before & communicated thoroughly throughout her two hours with Pico. I hope she will sit Pico again & recommend to all.”
About: 🐾Warm, safe, trusted, and friendly home for your pet when you go out! 🐾 Hi! I’m Eily, a lifelong pet lover based in Bermondsey. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or long workday, I provide a calm, caring, and secure space for your dog/cat. I offer dog in-home day care, house sitting, and walks (if local). I am close to Southwark Park but also equally happy to travel to you if that makes sense. I only take dogs from one household at a time to ensure each one gets the attention they deserve. You can expect: ✅ Clear and timely communication ✅ Photo and video updates ✅ Safe walks and playtime ✅ Flexibility ✅ Most importantly, a warm and safe space for your pet ✅ Comfort and experience Get in touch to book your slot, I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pup or cat! 🐈⬛ 🐶✨ I currently work full time but I WFH Monday, Tuesday and Friday, but lots of time in between to care for pups and love them! I can go on walks during the day and at lunch time and if your dog has good recall (and the owner is comfortable!), we can play in the park next to my house. I live on the bottom floor of a little cul de sac in Camberwell, it’s quiet and peaceful during the day and at night. There are parks within walking distance of my flat too!
“We booked Angela for a drop-in to come and meet our cocker spaniel puppy before we book for a longer service like daycare or housesitting. Angela was very communicative beforehand, very calm and capable with Genie, and gave her lots of cuddles! We're looking forward to booking Angela again soon :)”
About: I first started taking care of dogs at the age of 13. I happilly looked after my neighbours 2 dogs the whole summer since i deeply love animals. Nowadays I own 2 cats and regularly look after my friends cats and dogs when they are abroad. I love animals and i try my best to make their stay with me lovely as well. I’m currently in a break from studies so would have plenty time to take care of your pets! Enjoy walks with them or days inside. I always look out for possible dangers for pet and keep your pet away from anything uncomfotable for them or annoying. Always trying to make them feel like home!
“Christina looked after my two very nervous cats wonderfully while we were away. It was our first trip since getting them & I was also quite nervous about going away but Christina was excellent with speedy communication & photos. 100 % trustworthy and kind. Thank you so much, Christina!”
“Charlie is an incredible cat sitter. She communicates well and promptly, our cat has absolutely loved her and Charlie made sure to do everything we asked for and beyond. I would not hesitate to trust Charlie any time with our cat and would highly recommend her to anyone. ”
“Aimee is fantastic, kind human, she took such great care of my beloved saffy for two days, taking her for walks, give her breakfast and medication in her he morning . I’m grateful for her kindness to saffy.”
“Thanks so much Stephanie! We really appreciated how attentive, reliable, and communicative you were over our weekend away. Lenny was so chilled out when we got back. Would love to have you look after him again.”
About: I have had two dogs since I can remember, they have been my best friends. Being away from home and that kind of furry company has been difficult and the opportunity to take care of other pets is ideal for me. I also feel that I have an understanding of what to do in various situations. I have lots of experience with animals and I’m enthusiastic about taking good care of pets of all age and size🐾🥰 I’m currently working part time which takes place mostly at night, so I have plenty of time during the morning and day to spend time with furry friends! Considering I am a student I would’ve happy to do home visits and take pets on walks as I don’t think my living situation is fit for a pet
“Emma has been brilliant with our rescue dog Pippin. He warmed to her very quickly and she played with him and kept him active- which is exactly what we need. She has been very reliable and communicative, sending through great pictures and updates. We will Absolutely book with her again!”
About: 🐾 Last Minute Bookings Welcome! 🐾 Hello!! I’m Stacey, a dedicated and experienced dog sitter based in Peckham. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and I truly consider them a part of the family. Dogs are my whole world and I treat every dog I look after as if they were my own. I share my home with my friendly parson russell terrier Suzuki, a frenchie called Kilo, who I share with my ex partner (he's not always at mine) and my two lovely older children who are teenages, they are respectful, and used to being around animals.
“Susan had a wonderful time with Rukiye. I was sent regular updates, photos, videos and could see that she was happy, well cared for and, frankly, spoilt! I think having me home is a bit of a disappointment to her. I will definitely request her again.”

This was our first time having Farah catsit our two cats, and she has been amazing. She's very easy to coordinate with and stopped by to pick up and drop off the keys. She also asked great questions that immediately reassured us our cats were in great hands — especially helpful since one of them has reduced mobility. Throughout the visits, she was wonderfully sweet about sending updates and photos. We honestly can't recommend her enough; we'll definitely be calling her again. Thank you, Farah!
We had a great experience with Tanya. She took the time to come and meet us and Zorro before we went away, which gave us real peace of mind. She was very friendly, accommodating, and clearly loves cats. Throughout our trip, she shared daily photos and videos, so we always knew Zorro was happy and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.
Blaise was very flexible and able to stay over at mine very last minute to care for my dog and two cats. As usual she was absolutely amazing. Blaise is kind and genuinely goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are feeling loved and cared for in your absence! I received lots of photos and videos of playtimes and cuddles in bed. My shy cat who is scared of his own shadow even warmed to her and slept in next to her which just made me feel so happy. It’s such a reassurance that she’s a vet nurse and is there if anything were to happen. I came home to a clean house, clean litter trays and 3 very happy pets. Couldn’t have asked for more! Exceptional service and highly recommend!
Millie was fantastic in helping us out at short notice to watch our cat. She was communicative, friendly, and reliable, sending lots of pictures and making sure our cat got lots of food and attention. We will definitely look to Millie for help with cat-sitting again in future!
Hafiza was so sweet and gentle with our cats. We came back to them feeling very comfortable and relaxed. I didn’t have a single worry for my cats whilst away. We were sent videos, pictures and updates all the way! We will definitely book Hafiza as our cat sitter again :)
Greta was wonderful. So great with the cats, kept in constant contact. I always knew when she was going and how our cats were doing and I felt totally at ease the whole time. Will definitely book with Greta again. Also she is took so many amazing photos and videos, much better than we’ve ever been able to capture
Kat is an expert Cat Whisperer. She's very responsive, attentive and experienced. I was very happy with how my cat appeared after my absence (content, well fed, calm), and I didn't have to worry, because Kat was sending me video-reports every day, so I was up-to-date throughout. Can't recommend enough!
Wilson cared for my very elderly cat with such care and attention. He documented his visits with photos and I could see that my very timid cat had made friends with him. Wilson followed my feeding instructions, visited on specified times and was very respectful. I would thoroughly recommend Wilson if you are looking for a cat sitter. He does a top job!
