About: I have taken care of pets my entire life, growing up with a cat, two rabbits and hamsters. I’ve always been such an animal lover and get so much joy from being surrounded by pets and getting the chance to look after them. I currently own 2 tabby cats and a 4 year old cockapoo who are all the most important things in my life! On a typical week I am free all throughout the day on weekdays but no evenings (apart from Wednesday or weekends) and fully available over the weekend. I have a fenced garden with plenty of space for them to run around. I have one dog (a 4 year old cockapoo) who’s incredibly friendly with others. We do own two cats however they are never around during the day.

“Pedro looked after my 2 dogs really well - they had lovely walks and Pedro also helped with some training issues - my 2 got on really well with Pedro’s dog Koda - and I really appreciated the emails and videos that Pedro sent me 😊 My 2 dogs had a great time while I was away and my cottage was also well looked after - I can really recommend Pedro - he is is my go to choice !! But”


“Charlotte is a fabulous pet sitter, our cat loved her and we came home to a super relaxed kitty! Charlotte also made sure the house was neat and tidy and even vacuumed up. It was an absolute pleasure to have her look after our cat and home!”



“Jake was a fantastic sitter for Westley. He had a great time and he was very friendly and punctual. I would recommend him in a heartbeat”


“I cannot thank Jack enough for everything she's done for my 13 weeks puppy Ruby. He spent 2 nights at mine looking after her and not only he provided the basic care but gave Ruby so much confidence! She went from not being able to go down the stairs to being so good at doing it now, and she also met his family's dog for the first time And Jack was so caring and guided Ruby in her new experience! Sent me a lot of pictures and videos! Ruby absolutely loves him! I am looking forward for Ruby to have more fun time with Jack”


“Martin was very friendly and easy to make arrangements with. We had regular updates while we were away just saying everything was okay. Martin left the house immaculate and the dogs seemed very calm. We were extremely happy with the whole experience.”


“Jessica was so great with my baby Rags! I’ve never left her with anyone but family/ my best friend and Jessica made me feel at ease when leaving the country for almost a month! She stayed at my house with my pup and took excellent care of the house and Rags. I’ve never seen her so relaxed when we came home. Would use her everytime we have a trip planned in the future! Can’t recommend enough!!”


About: I grew up with a dog in the family and enjoyed taking care and spending time with dogs ever since. I have some experience with cats too, taking care of friends cats I work from home so have some time to spend with pets. I can walk the dogs, play with them and feed them according to the schedule desired I live in a house and have a small garden where dogs can spend their time. Plenty of parks to take them for a walk around too

“So grateful for how well Katie looks after our pets. She was so friendly and warm and completely won over our nervous rescue terrier and was also very thoughtful in leaving us with some milk when she left. I would absolutely recommend Katie.”


About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and i've cared for many different pets! Growing up, I was always surrounded by lots of animals from cats, dogs, rabbits, & hamsters. I have a genuine love for animals - I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for in their own home. I like to offer a calm, patient approach and take the time to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. I run my own pet sitting business, so I am experienced in pet care & completely flexible in my schedule. I am also fully insured & DBS checked. I am confident in giving basic medications and keeping to specific feeding, walking, or play routines. Whether your pet needs company, cuddles, playtime or quiet companionship, their wellbeing is my top priority! I'm also more than happy to assist with small household tasks like bringing in post, closing curtains, or watering plants to give your home that ‘lived-in’ feel while you're away. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and experienced to keep your pet content while you’re away, I’d love to help! FOR NEW CUSTOMERS - use promo code CAITL97884 to get £15 off your first booking I run my own pet sitting business, so I am completely flexible in my schedule. I am available Monday - Sunday, anytime of the day. I have a regular Saturday dog walk from 11am to 12:30pm, but outside of that I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s needs. Whether it’s popping in after work for a cuddle and feed, or spending more time with your pet over the weekend, I’ll always make sure they get the love and attention they deserve. My long-term goal is to offer pet care full time, so I’m committed to building strong, trusting relationships with every pet I care for. I believe pets feel happiest and safest in their own familiar environment, which is why I offer care in your home. I always take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely, from feeding times and walk preferences to favourite toys and little comforts. I treat your home with the utmost respect and keep everything clean and tidy while you’re away. I’m calm, gentle, and patient—especially with shy or nervous pets—and I’ll always make sure they feel secure, loved, and never rushed. I also keep in touch with regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident and reassured while you're away.

“Natalie was great with Westley and stayed when we were delayed. We will be using her again very soon!”


About: I have looked after a wide range of breeds from Daschunds to Great Danes. All ages from 6 month old energetic puppies to 15 year old seniors with health problems such as epilepsy/diabetes and blindness. All dogs are loved and cared for according to their needs. I work for myself making candles/soaps etc for a living. My schedule can be adapted to fit around my furry friends - not the other way around. I have no pets of my own. The back garden is completely fenced in. Dogs are allowed on sofas/beds in my home. I am surrounded by fields so there is plenty of good dog walks on my doorstep without having to travel anywhere.

About: I really love looking after dogs, I’ve grown up with dogs in the household from as long as I can remember - a retired greyhound and a rescue whippet lurcher cross. I also have my own dog care business so have a lot of experience with different breeds, reactive dogs, rescues and other behavioural challenges. I’d would love to rescue a dog of my own in the future when the time is right😁 I am currently studying mental health nursing at university and do online work about 2-3 out of 5 days a week so would have lots of time to spend with your furry friend and give them the attention they deserve! I enjoy spending time outdoors so would love going for long walks too. I’d love to have a chat with you to see how I can help make yours and your dogs life easier! I am very keen to keep the dogs routine similar to how it would be at home, from breakfast times to walk times! Unfortunately I am not able to have pets at my home as I am not licensed by the local council but I am more than happy to pet/ house sit (in the pets home)

“We asked Millie to look after our Boston Terrier while we attended a wedding. She was excellent - prompt to arrive and kept us updated throughout the day so we didn’t worry - sharing some lovely pictures. While only there for a brief visit, Millie still found time to do a meet and greet which helped Hugo (and us) get settled. We really appreciated her suggesting this and it shows her commitment to the animals she looks after. Millie is patient and kind and really loves what she does. I would definitely use her again if / when we’re in the area as well as recommend her to family and friends.”

“Rhiannon looked after my beautiful cockapoo Muffin recently and she did the most fabulous job. Muffin is 5yearsold but still bouncy like a puppy and Rhiannon didn’t make me feel embarrassed or ashamed. She took Muffin on a super walk in a local park as requested and she couldn’t have been more helpful. Muffin was happy, cared for and well fed when returned to me and I didn’t have any issues at all. Rhiannon communicated well throughout and I would definitely ask her to help me out again. Thanks Rhiannon❤️”

Georgia P.
“My chocolate lab Christine is my most loved and treasured companion. I have had to leave her with a number of dog carers lately and I can honestly say that she is the most content and settled I have seen her, when she is in the care of Georgia. Georgia has a calm way of being that is hard to put into words. I can see that when Christine is in her care, she feels safe and settled. Like all dog owners and their pets, Christine and I have developed certain ways of doing things and Christine is used to the way I communicate my expectations to her. Georgia took these into account and followed them without fuss or deviation. This, combined with her kind calm presence is why I have no hesitation in leaving Christine in Georgia's care. Not only does Christine feel happy and safe, but I have total peace of mind.”
