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
“I can’t recommend Jasmin enough! She kindly stepped in last minute to do daily drop-in visits with my dog, Roxy, for a week, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She even came the very same day for a meet-and-greet, which immediately put my mind at ease. Jasmin is so friendly and caring, and she made sure to keep me updated with prompt messages and photos of Roxy enjoying her time in the garden. She was always on time, reliable, and truly went above and beyond. I’m so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her services to anyone looking for peace of mind while away from their pup!”

“I would give Emily 10 stars if I could! We had to leave our two cats for two weeks and Emily was absolutely the perfect choice! We have a very extroverted cat and one who panics and had stress induced paralysis at meeting strangers from abuse in her early life and from day one Emily was somehow able to bond with both of our girls. She took pictures, videos and gave detailed accounts of all of her visits, she put a smile on our faces every time we heard from her! Our anxious cat seemed to absolutely love Emily, she let her give her a stroke and came out multiple times when Emily got there, our extroverted cat was the exact same and loved her visits! We asked Emily if she could do an extra day after we booked which was incredibly last minute and marked unavailable on her schedule, and despite leaving for Paris the same day, Emily still came and visited our girls to make sure they were okay! Em carried out everything we asked of her and went above and beyond on many occasions, even using some of her own rubbish bags for emptying the litter as we had run out of them ourselves. We will 1000% be asking Emily for her services again if we have to leave for a while! We were so worried about leaving the girls as we had never been away longer than two days before but as soon as Emily followed up with us after her visit we knew we had made the right choice and we had absolutely zero stress during our time away. If anybody is in the same position as us and you’re worried about choosing the right person to take care of your fur babies, Emily should absolutely be your first choice! A massive Thankyou again to you Emily! You are an absolute star 💗⭐”

About: I have looked after senior dogs with life limiting illnesses and anxiety over the years. I focus on maintaining calm environments for anxious dogs and psychological stimulation. Hi there! I am Michelle (Chelle) , a dog-loving person who treats every pup like family. Whether your furry friend loves long walks, belly rubs, or just snoozing in a sunny spot, I am here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have several years of experience with rescues and often look after friends and family's dogs. I do work Part-time in a hybrid community role, so i have flexibility to ensure your pup is given quality care. This also givies me lots of time to share a little extra love to your pup! My wife is home evenings and weekends.

About: I have taken care dogs since I was 14, training guide dogs, including the family dog and voluntary work which led to paid work for walking neighbours dogs and at a dog kennel walking dogs and cleaning kennels. I have been dogsitting on and off for 16 years and rescued 3 dogs. I have done more regular sits since a friend from church asked me to dog sit, then I used Trustedhousitters as a sitter for 3 years and have done 12 different successful sits of which a few have been asked back, so I also know how to take care of people’s homes and multiple pets in the home. Your dogs will be happy with me and treated like family, they will have play time and rest time and I always stick to the rules that you have set for them and their meal times including what they eat. I would never feed your dog human food or over treat them or punish them. If I am sitting I would take them out for a walk in the local areas up to 3 times a day but they will have plenty of toilet breaks. If I am only walking your dog, I will keep them on the lead and go for as much time as they need. Your dog will be in safe hands with me. I am an at home full-time student, I start my last year in October and finish in May 2027. I will have time to go for dog walks anytime as I can pick my days and times to study. I cannot bring pets into my home currently as my 2 cats are the proud owners but I can meet you for a pick up or take care of a dog at your home
“If I could give more stars I would!!! Fine has been incredible. Our little family hasn’t been away abroad before and with a 1&2 year old in the group I had a lot to organise. Gina, from the moment we met, made us feel relaxed and in safe hands. Our small holding included goats, chickens, rabbits and cats and they all adored her! She went above and beyond, from brushing to talking to them to reassure when they timid ones showed signs of feeling anxious. We are so grateful! And will definitely be using Gina again. She’s opened a door for us to be able to go on more family adventures Thank you Gina 🙏🏻 xx”

About: Welcome to Wilbur’s Way 🐾 Myself and my partner, Meg, are a family of four who have grown up around dogs of all different sizes, breeds and personalities. We both work from home, giving us the time, flexibility and attention needed to make sure every dog in our care is never short of company. Our love for looking after dogs grew even stronger after we sadly lost our much-loved English Bull Terrier, Wilbur. Over a year ago, we decided to open our home to other dogs, and since then we’ve had the pleasure of looking after so many wonderful pooches, from tiny Yorkshire Terriers to some of the biggest breeds, including Cane Corsos. We’re a genuine family home, and dogs staying with us become part of the family while they’re here. We have a four-year-old and a new baby, so our home is naturally busy, loving and full of life. We understand that every dog is different, which is why we take the time to learn their individual personality, routine and preferences. We’ve built Wilbur’s Way from our love of dogs and the experience we’ve gained from caring for so many different breeds over the past year. We know how important it is to feel confident that your dog is somewhere safe, loved and well looked after, and that’s exactly what we aim to provide. ❤️ You can also follow our adventures and see some of the lovely dogs we’ve welcomed into our home over on Instagram: Wilbur’s Way 🐾 Myself (Shaun) and my partner (Megan) both work from home, everyday, so your pooch will never be without love & attention. I'm an early riser, that loves walking and exercise. For the last 5 years, walking our English Bull Terrier has been part of my day-to-day. We have a lot of time and energy to be able to ensure your dogs stay is as joyful for them as it is stress-free for you. We have a secure rear garden which your dog will have use of whenever needed. It’s safe & secure meaning they can spend as long out there as they’d like to.

“Abi was really great. She kindly popped over to meet Fremmy and Mowgli before her first lunch visit and I could tell straight away that she was a kind and professional person with a real love of animals.”

“I could not recommend Gyvania more enthusiastically, she has been just amazing. Our cats have been clearly relaxed, happy, not in the least bothered about being away, and not at all 'in a mood' once we got back. Gyvania took great care of the coming and going from the property and was reliable, easily reachable, ready to answer any questions, supplied videos and understood and carried out instruction with the utmost care. We will definitely be hiring her again!”

About: As a passionate animal enthusiast, I’m dedicated to giving every pet the love and attention they deserve. Living and working in the heart of Cornwall, I’m lucky to be surrounded by stunning beaches, countryside, and trails — the perfect setting for enriching dog walks and outdoor adventures. I provide professional, compassionate care with a focus on your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I never do pack walks, ensuring a calm and enjoyable experience tailored to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether it’s energetic puppies, anxious dogs, or senior pets needing gentle care, I adapt each walk or visit accordingly. As your local dog walker, sitter, and boarder, I offer flexible and personalised services including: • One-to-one or small group dog walks • Home boarding in a safe, loving environment • Pet sitting and pop-in visits for all animals I’m fully insured, DBS checked, and trained in pet first aid — giving you total peace of mind while you’re away. I also love meeting new pets and their owners to create a custom care plan that fits perfectly with your routine. Let’s chat and see how I can help make your pet’s day a little brighter! Pet care is a core part of my daily and weekly routine — not just a job, but a lifestyle I truly love. Each day is planned around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that’s morning walks along the Cornish coast, midday pop-in visits, or evening cuddles for pets staying with me overnight. I build my schedule with plenty of time and flexibility to give every animal my full attention and care. No two days are the same, which is what I enjoy most. From active dogs needing long countryside walks, to older pets who prefer a slower pace and some quiet companionship, I make sure each pet gets the right level of care, stimulation, and love. Weekly, I also spend time checking in with pet owners, updating care plans, and continuing my learning in animal behaviour and first aid. Being fully committed to this work means pets are never an afterthought — they’re at the heart of how I organise my life. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, safety, comfort, and trust are at the heart of everything I do. In My Home: I create a calm, secure, and loving environment where pets feel like part of the family. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress — from feeding and sleeping schedules to playtime and quiet moments. My home is pet-safe, with secure outdoor space, and I only board a small number of animals at once to ensure individual attention and a peaceful atmosphere. I also carry out careful meet-and-greets beforehand to make sure each pet is a good fit for the home environment. In the Pet Owner’s Home: When visiting or staying in a pet’s own home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. I stick to the owner’s instructions closely, ensuring pets feel safe and relaxed in their familiar surroundings. I always take time to build trust with the animals I care for, using gentle, positive approaches to make each interaction reassuring and enjoyable. In both settings, I’m fully insured, DBS checked, and trained in pet first aid. I keep open communication with pet owners through regular updates, photos, and check-ins — so they feel confident and reassured while they’re away.
About: I moved to Cornwall for university and soon found the passion for surfing. I now live in Cornwall and have been looking after dogs for several years now. Moving to Cornwall on my own has made me very independent, but also very flexible. Which means pet care fits easily into my day to day routine. I have a few small jobs that I can schedule around the dog sitting, so I'm able to give pets plenty of time and attention. I thrive on having a routine and living an active, healthy lifestyle. When looking after pets. I understand how important routine is, including regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention, especially as different breeds have different needs. With my active lifestyle, i genuinely enjoy walks, runs, and spending time outdoors, so keeping dogs happy and exercised comes naturally to me. When I'm caring for pets in their own home, I'm always respectful, tidy and minimal, making sure everything is kept just as the owners expect.

I love long walks, playtime, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated with games and enrichment activities. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and routines, whether that’s high-energy exercise or a more relaxed pace. I’m also comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, and administering simple care when needed.

I’m available for both regular bookings and last-minute requests, and I’m happy to fit pet care around your routine. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care.

Wow. These sitters were EXACTLY what Fearn needed. They were so attentive with her that when she realised it was me that was back home and not another visit with Callum & Jazz, I could sense the disappointment that it wasn’t them! They bought additional treats, they bought poo bags when I had ran out. They even did a little TLC on my home when fearn had an unfortunate accident. I honestly cannot fault these lovely people and hope that they’ll look after fearn again. Total peace of mind, and lots and lots of love + updates on fearn. 6* should be an option.
