“Sophie responded to my request so quickly and came to my house to cat sit for the weekend at very short notice. I came home to a very happy cat. Marvin clearly liked Sophie the pictures and messages she sent were lovely and updated me throughout the weekend which was great, as I do worry about leaving Marvin he had a new night time routine and Sophie managed to get Marvin in at night which in itself I was worried about. I would absolutely love to recommend Sophie and will definitely myself be reaching out again.”


“Thea was perfect with our puppy and cat during our holiday. She kept us updated through the week and the pets certainly looked like they were enjoying themselves. She left the house nice and clean too. Would highly recommend Thea and would love to have her again for our next time away!”


About: We are a couple that loves dogs but travels alot, Jo works from home with flexible working hours which can work around pet care easily. Morning, lunch and evening walks are easily to cater for. Intermittent attention throughout the day is a welcome distraction from my desk. Dogs walks before work, lunch and after work well in any weather depending on the activity level of the dog. I work remotely so all I need is a desk for my laptop. I work from home with flexible working hours which can work around pet care easily. I have the time and flexibility to look after your pet. I have the flexibility to work the same schedule you have with your animal. Happy to look after the home as well as your beloved pet.
“Em is one of the best sitters we've ever had after years of using Rover. Peg was in the best hands and was calm and happy with Em during an overnight sit. We received lots of amazing peg content throughout the sit too which is always a bonus! Thank you once again Em, you're the best!”

About: I am a designer who works from home, after always having dogs I miss their company a lot. Instead of getting a dog I decided to host dogs in my house. I live in a cottage in St Austell, tucked away in a quiet part of this seaside town. I have a lovely big garden with sunshine and shade where they can play or potter about. The cottage is cool and quiet and has everything a doggy would need. Your dog will never be left alone as I work here too. I only take one dog at a time or dogs from the same household so they will have a really personal experience that will be tailored to them and their needs. There is a wealth of glorious beaches and river trails only minutes away for playtime, walks and relaxing. I try and make every day like a doggy holiday even if they are only staying a short time. I have owned dogs myself as well as having grown up with one always in the household. I had my last dog from a puppy and fully trained him, we did agility classes together too. I have also owned a rescue dog in the past who I worked closely with a trainer for to understand his body language and his needs so I do have experience with dog behaviour. I work from home during the week so your dog will have lots of 1:1 attention as I need to take regular breaks away from the screen. I always walk in the morning, lunchtime and the end of the day as a way to get outdoors and it’s such a treat to do that alongside a doggy friend. I can offer a pet free, smoke free house with a fenced in garden. Please do bring anything your dog likes along to make them comfortable, maybe a bed and some favourite toys for playtime

“*Worth more than a 5* review* I can’t recommend Jasmin and Callum enough - such a lovely couple and brilliant with my dogs. My first time using a dog sitting service and I felt very comfortable leaving them in such capable hands. I really appreciated the updates and photos too. Thank you both”


“Rosanna was amazing and stepped in at the last minute when a different sitter cancelled housesitting so we could still go for a celebratory meal out. She responded promptly and shared updates through the evening. Would recommend!”

“We had previously hired Corben for a day time dog sit and did not hesitate to contact him again when we then needed an overnight stay with our dog. Corben was very flexible with the timings and very attentive to our needs to allow us to make the most of our night away. Corben was great with our dog and provided regular communication on how she was getting on. I can't recommend Corben enough. Knowing our dog was safe and happy allowed us to fully relax and enjoy our event without worry. We will definitely be booking Corben again for any of our dog sitting needs.”


“Georgia was excellent and made two trips to visit Bozie before we left for our holiday, so he got to know her. Georgia sent regular photos of Bozie and updates whilst we were away and his usual cattitude was evident, so we knew he was happy! We would recommend Georgia. ”

“Fantastic!! My 2 dogs took to her straight away, she gave them lots of cuddles, attention and enrichment in the garden. She also left the house clean, tidy and secure. I will definitely rebook!”


“Wow, we were so lucky to have found Ilona, she was the perfect person to look after our border collie, Ben. We rescued him recently and so he is quite needy and yet Ilona took everything in her stride and made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. She knew exactly what Ben needed, especially in the crazy heatwave, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone to look after your dog(s). She responded very quickly to my booking request and was clear about timings and was so reliable and very trustworthy. She also kept us updated with photos and took him for walkies in the woods as it was shaded.”

About: 15 Years of caring and training my own dogs, various breads including Vizla's, Beagles and Spaniels. Along side boarding for family and friends pets varying from Labs to Dachshund's. Also have 9-10 years of cat care experience along with 3 years horse care. I'm currently working from home full time 9-5, however have to take regular breaks for my own pets including lunchtime walks. Saturdays will unfortunately be unavailable throughout the summer as i am a keen cricketer. I have a fenced garden with two friendly dogs and one friendly cat. Dogs can be crated if this is required (however for a large dog, a crate will need to be supplied). Any specific instructions will be noted an followed where supplied.
About: I’m a patient and caring dog sitter who will make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, affection, and care. I know every dog is different, so I’ll always follow your routine and instructions closely. I am currently working part time (around 20 hours a week), so have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets! Monday morning or evening. Tuesday & Thursday afternoons or nightime. Friday & Saturday all day. I understand that each pet is different, so I would abide any rules, routines and instruction set by the owner. Tailoring my care to each individual animal, from energetic pups to laid back felines!
“Many thanks to Kyal for a super house and dog sit. Great communications and photos, house left clean and tidy and bedding washed and very happy dogs here when I got back. I find Kyal reliable and polite and he is obviously a dog lover. I hope Kyal will be available to do future bookings for me.”

“Cara completed another sit for my crazy lot (3 dogs, a cat and some pond fish), which takes a lot of patience. She looks after all the animals extreme care, and caters to there needs. Cara always goes above and beyond, and this time came to our rescue when I stupidly forgot to leave a house key out for her to gain access, which I am so very grateful for. Our house is always left very clean and tidy, and the dogs enjoy her company, we highly recommend her. Thank you Cara for another great sit.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, patience, and individual attention I give every pet. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, having been raised with Gordon Setters, and as an adult I’ve always owned Dachshunds, so caring for dogs is second nature to me. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I have experience with puppies, including basic training, toilet routines, and socialisation, as well as senior dogs who may need a gentler approach, medication, and slower-paced walks. Having owned Dachshunds, I’m especially mindful of handling, back care, and appropriate exercise. I’m confident following detailed care instructions and maintaining established routines. I also keep owners regularly updated with messages and photos so they can feel completely at ease while their pets are in my care. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My aim is always to provide a safe, happy, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I am a single mum who works part time and from home, and dog walks and beach strolls are a part of my day so your pooch will have plenty of love and attention. I have a small fenced in garden for the dogs to play and Walter is happy to keep your dog company along with my 10 year old who is obsessed with all dogs.

About: I always had dogs during my childhood but work has stopped this happening during adulthood. Since becoming self employed and working from home my wife and I were able to get Ringo where we are most happy spending time all together either on walks or being lazy at home. We live on 2nd floor so guests need to be good with stairs and as there are communal areas we need all guests to be very well house trained in all situations. If sending a request or enquiry please ensure your dog profile is complete so that we have all the information to decide suitability. We look forward to meeting any new friends on walks, drop in visits or joining us at home. We will see you soon.

Sam was absolutely brilliant. They accommodated us at the last minute and weren't phased at all by a whippet with separation anxiety, pain issues, and who can be reactive to other dogs. Sam paid attention to every detail of his care and we came back to a tired, calm, happy dog. Thank you!
