About: I've worked with animals in a variety of settings, including hospitals, kennels, rescues and zoological collections, and I hold qualifications in Animal Care, Animal Management and Animal Welfare. Over the years I've cared for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels and needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I focus on providing safe, reliable and enriching care tailored to the individual dog. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, companionship while you're away, or a little extra patience and understanding, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want for my own. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet before any booking so that you and your dog can get to know me and feel comfortable. I'm currently full time working as a dog walker and sitter, so I'm ready to work with you! Just drop me a message. I believe every pet deserves care that is safe, calm and tailored to their individual needs. Before any booking, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet so I can learn about your pet's routine, personality, likes, dislikes and any specific requirements. When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow your instructions carefully for feeding, medication (where appropriate), exercise, enrichment and any household preferences. I treat every home and pet with respect, keeping safety and wellbeing as my priority. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. With my background in Animal Care and Animal Welfare, I understand the importance of recognising stress signals, maintaining a safe environment and providing positive, compassionate care for every animal.

“Grace cared for Jax in our home whilst we were away for a week. She was super attentive to his needs, we had some lovely updates each day and Jax had a great time. We will definitely be rebooking with you 😊”

Rachel E.

“Liane was absolutely amazing and treated both Bertie and Cheeto as if they were her own! I loved hearing all about what they got up to while I was away, would definitely rebook again!”

Shannon M.

“Karl is very reliable, took time to find out about Mildred, gave us updates over the 4 days we were away and we will definitely use him again.”

Liz V.

“We were nervous to leave the dogs but they were very happy when we were away and weren’t at all unsettled when we returned. Thankful for the last minute help and would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.”

About: I grew up around dogs and cats and always took an opportunity to care for my friend’s/family dogs whenever I could. I absolutely love spending time with animals whether it’s a walk in a forest, coffee in town, cuddle on the sofa, little training session or playing with their toys. I finally got a dog on my own last year from a puppy, cocker spaniel Daisy who is 1.5 years now 🥰 I currently work from home majority of the time, so my schedule is very flexible. I drive and can get to your home if needed, take dogs on a field/forest walk as well! I have a fenced garden in new development, it’s big enough for dogs to have a little play and run outside. It’s a quiet area, with a lot paths to walk, close to lovely fields and small forests for dogs to enjoy. I will always adhere to any specific rules or requirements around your pet’s safety and schedule. If needed I can separate dogs in the house, if they don’t get on with Daisy for any reason.

About: I had my own pet sitting business based in Winchester pre-covid. I have looked after groups of up to 8 large dogs for weeks at a time and have always dog walked. I have my own dog which I share with an ex-partner therefore will be available during the times I am not looking after him. I currently work full time, however I have the freedom to work from home and manage my hours therefore I have time to stay at the property all day or pop back and forth should I need to attend the office. I drive and can manage any pet sitting jobs needed around the times of having my own dog. When staying at a pet owners home, ideally I want to stick to the same routine as you in order to now upset your pets in anyway, I am happy to discuss with you any routines and make sure I have clear feeding/medication instructions.

“Teodora was great with my puppy, Dennis. She looked after him for the day whilst I was out seeing friends and he had a great time. Lots of play and fuss, but also lots of sleep… which I appreciate as he’s doesn’t settle well. I got lots of photo updates throughout the day. Highly recommend😁”

Sean H.

“Steffi was really good with the dogs. She was able to meet the dogs before hand which meant they were excited to see her on the day. They were comfortable around Steffi and she was very good at keeping us updated, sending us pictures. We were really happy with her.”

Jess H.

“Saoirse was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Our little pup warmed to her beautifully. She even did the washing up for me after I left in a hurry. Kind, thoughtful, trustworthy and genuinely loves animals. Can’t thank you enough for restoring our faith. Would recommend 100%”

Selina B.

“Allison has looked after Floyd a few times for me now. This time was VERY short notice but Allison was able to help. As usual good, clear communication to confirm arrangements and a picture of Floyd looking happy.”

Stuart H.

“Electra has been fantastic. One of our dogs is nervous and the other very excitable. She responded to their individual needs perfectly. We were kept updated with lovely photos of our fur babies, and were able to completely relax. It was also the hottest weekend of the year, so managed with the heat too. We've already booked her again, and have now found our dog sitter 🙌🏻thank you so much, Electra”

Natalie T.

“Annie took very good care of our cat and our house. She was very conscientious and keen to do a good job, and our cat clearly enjoyed being looked after by her!”

Chloe W.

“Cathy has a lovely way about her, and my dog instantly took a shine to her. I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. I could tell he had enjoyed being with her as he followed her right out of the door when she was leaving. I will definitely be asking for her help again.”

Claire B.

“After meeting and chatting with Oscar initially, we felt he had the right experience and attitude, and demonstrated an instant connection with our furry family members. When we returned home, all was well: our four-legged lovelies were happy and calm; the house was very clean and tidy. The only thing that could have been improved was Oscar sending regular updates whilst we were away. Not that we had any worries, this is just something we had asked for and have got used to over the years. We would still recommend Oscar beyond a shadow of a doubt.”

Gary H.

“Jenna looked after our elderly Irish Terrier for a full week. Communication was great, Tilly was relaxed and happy when we got back. Jenna left everything clean and tidy. More than happy to recommend Jenna.”

About: Hi everyone! I work remotely full-time at the moment , so I’m lucky enough to have some flexibility in my day. I currently don't have a pet of my own , so dog walking is my absolute favorite way to stay active and enjoy some canine companionship. I would love to meet dogs of all sizes, shapes, and personalities! Whether your dog loves a long walk, or just need a human friend for some a companionship. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to chat, I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐶❤️ I work remotely full-time, which gives me good flexibility during the day for dog walks and drop in visits. As I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I’m happy to use some of that flexibility to spend time with dogs, stay active and provide reliable care for local owners. I can usually fit walks or drop-in visits around my working day and am happy to discuss regular weekly arrangements. I’ll follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, while adjusting my care to suit their individual needs and personality. I’m also happy to follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, fresh water, toilet breaks and any other day to day care.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life from Dachshunds and terriers through to rescues and Labradors. I’ve recently retired and lost my companion Charlie so I’m hoping to invest my love in your precious one now. I’m recently retired so expect to spend all day with your pet, making them part of my life while they are with me. I live in a city centre maisonette and have a small secure outside space for fresh air, but there are also parks near me and all the smells and excitement of the city. I follow whatever exercise routine and rules you have at home. Pets can come on the sofa for cuddles if you allow that, and can either sleep downstairs or upstairs on the bed with me.

“Ruth was brilliant with our dog Loki and her patience paid off with our cat Amber who usually hides away from people she doesnt know. Ruth made sure she came to see us and meet our anxious dog Loki before she looked after them for the day. She has a lovely calm manner about her which was ideal for our over excitable dog. We definitely recommend her.”
