We will definitely be using Katie again and highly recommend her! Scout loved her two visits to her, Katie was so friendly and attentive with her, made sure to play with her while she was visiting and give her lots of fuss and love! Highly recommend!

She has been helping me with my crazy border collie and my foster Yorkie. From dropping them off at daycare to long walks. She's been such a big help and has been very accommodating.

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and understand just how important pets are as part of the family. Growing up, I had six cats and a Golden Labrador, and I now have a lovely Cocker Spaniel of my own, so I’m experienced with both cats and dogs and comfortable caring for pets of different ages and personalities. I work full-time as a Cardiac Physiologist at West Suffolk Hospital, and in my free time I enjoy taking my Cocker Spaniel on long walks, spending time in the garden, and being outdoors. I’m available for pet care in the mornings and evenings before and after work, as well as throughout the weekend. I can also offer overnight pet sitting when needed. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced pet lover to look after your furry family members, I’d be delighted to help whenever I’m available. Please feel free to send me a message — I’d love to hear from you! 🙂 I work Monday - Friday 8-17:00 at West Suffolk Hospital, so am available mornings and evenings. I also have full availability on weekends, so please message me to find out more info. 🙂 I know how important it is to have someone reliable looking after your pets, and I’ll treat your cat with the same care and attention I’d give my own. Whether your cat loves cuddles and company or prefers their space, I’m happy to adapt to their personality and routine.

Really good with Maple. I appreciated the pictures and updates about her behaviour as, being a young puppy, how she responds to strangers amd whether she obeys them when necessary, is important for everyone's safety. Will happily ask Jack for help again if needed.

About: I live and breathe pets, caring for my own dogs since I was a child, including rescues and puppies. Every pet has its own unique charms, and my extensive personal experience caring for both my own animals and others' gives me patience and understanding when getting to know them. Additionally, my part-time work is directly with pet care, giving me a wealth of professional expertise, supplemented by undertaking specialised dog first aid training. Fully DBS checked and insured. I work part time, spending the rest of my week caring for my dog and planning pet visits. Your pet's needs will always be a priority to me, and I am very comfortable being flexible around my work to meet them. Additionally, pet welfare always comes first with me, so will be available for early mornings or late nights during the summer. I will always encourage meeting your wonderful pets all together first to make sure we're a good match, with an emphasis on being bespoke and customised to your pets' needs. For dogs specifically, I can offer both 1 to 1 care or, should you prefer they spend some time socialising with others, bring along my very friendly dog Nessie. Walked dogs will always be returned washed and dried, so there'll be no nasty surprises when you get home!

About: I have plenty of time and love to give to your dogs. I have lots of experience with caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages. I am confident and comfortable with all different dog personalities. I also have experience with senior dogs, dogs with medical conditions and young puppies. Just let me know and I’ll do my best to accommodate their needs. I have had my own dog for the past decade, a Jack Russell who I rescued in America who has now sadly passed and now we have a lovely ex-racing greyhound. I truly understand the importance of your dogs and that dogs are a member of your family. Please read my recent reviews. Here is a link for £15 off your first Rover booking https://www.rover.com/sit/jd37374 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of time and attention throughout the day. I absolutely love walking dogs and spending time outside and playing fetch with your dog. I have experience caring for dogs of many breeds and sizes. I live in a detached home in a quiet area with a large secure fully fenced garden (7ft fence). Your dog will have access to the garden whenever they need. There are lots of nice places to walk near my house including fields, woods and walking trails. Your dog can have the entire run of the downstairs of our home while they are here. Our dog, Coco, likes spending time with other dogs. When I’m caring for pets, their safety and comfort always come first. During walks, I make sure each dog is securely leashed with properly fitted gear, and I stick to safe, familiar routes. I pay close attention to their behaviour and surroundings to help keep them calm and happy at all times. For drop-in visits and dog sitting in your home, I follow the owner’s routine closely from feeding and playtime to any special instructions or medications. I always make sure pets feel comfortable in their own environment, keeping things tidy and ensuring they have fresh water and lots of affection before I leave. Communication and trust are key, so I keep owners updated with photos and messages after and during visits if requested. Please note for walks during hot weather, if it is too hot to safely walk your dog I will switch their walk to a drop-in visit (if required) where I take them out for a toilet break/let them out into the garden, spend time with them and ensure their water/food is topped up. That way they are still comfortable and have their basic needs met whilst you are out of the house.

About: I currently walk dogs regularly and also work with a local busy kennels, so I have lots of hands on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and needs. Alongside this, I’m studying a diploma in Canine Welfare, Care and Behaviour, so I’m still building my knowledge and understanding. I’m fully insured, canine first aid trained, and committed to providing safe, calm, and attentive care for every dog in my care. I hold an advanced DBS check as I volunteer my time to Our Special Friends helping with the elderly and vulnerable to care for their dogs. I have some available slots throughout the week between the hours of 9.30 and 14.00, ideal for regular weekly bookings or one off requirements. I am flexible and will always do my best to accommodate a visit or walk for a dog. I only offer solo (or same household) walks so I can prioritise safety, calm handling, and communication at all times. I take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs and their routines, and any behavioural or medical considerations before walking. Dogs are always kept on lead, and I carefully choose safe, suitable and known walking routes. I’m canine first aid trained and fully insured, and I will always keep owners updated with messages and photos for your peace of mind. As I offer solo/household walks only, your dog(s) will always receive my full attention in a safe and controlled environment only.

About: I’m a 33 year old female living in a flat in Bury St Edmunds. I have a marketing job with 9-5:30 flexible hours and I’m currently working from home and free on the weekends. In my spare time I love to go out on long walks & adventures and enjoy them so much better with a dog. I don’t have a dog myself but I have house sat and boarded a range of gorgeous different types of dog on this app and we had great walks together to different parks. I’d love to help people in the area with walks or boarding / looking after their dog whenever needed :). I’d be so excited to look after anyone’s animal/s in general and to help anyone out :). I’m very independent and live by myself but I am very close to my parents in south Cambridge where we all love to go on walks together too. Please message me if you would like to know anything more or require any further information :). I work from home so I am able to offer daycare during these times and I also offer boarding and house sitting. My partner Laurie also likes to help out and is usually around when I board dogs at my place. He enjoys joining us for walks and playing with the dogs. For house sitting Laurie will also join me so your pets get all the extra attention and love. We are always happy to come by for a meet up/ introduction beforehand so you get to meet us both. I have a shared garden for regular smaller walk/ toilet breaks but during your dogs stay I will also venture out for longer walks. I’ll make sure your dog gets all the exercise, love & attention they need! Please note that I do live in a flat/apartment where there are always neighbours coming/going at different times in the area. I am aware that sometimes seeing/hearing strangers can make a dog anxious/ bark a lot. Please consider this before booking :) many thanks. Pet care fits into my routine easily, as I work from home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to give dogs the attention, walks, and care they need throughout the day. I prioritize a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment by following each pet’s routine, keeping spaces secure, and always treating them with patience and kindness. Whether in my home or the owner’s, I maintain trust by respecting their rules, providing updates, and ensuring the pets feel comfortable and cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of my grandparents and friends dogs often when they go out whether it be a few hours or a holiday. Feeding, cleaning or taking them out for walks. I’m currently a university student but have plenty of time to pet sit. I can often work during the evenings more often than mornings or nights but I am flexible. Depending on your home adaptions are made such as a flat, focus on keeping your pet safe is important. And I would ensure that pets are cared for and taken out often whether it be toilet breaks or walks.

Katy looked after our Jack Russell Mazie while we were away for 3 days. Katy is professional, honest, reliable and caring. Mazie loved interacting with Katy and playing with her many tennis balls! Katy is very punctual with the drop-in service we booked so no need to worry about her turning up on time. In addition, on each drop-in we received some lovely photos of Mazie on walks and in the garden. We came home to a very happy dog. We would definitely book Katy again and highly recommend her pet care services.
