“Josephine was the perfect sitter during my 4 day trip abroad. My mind was completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. She was very communicative, followed care instructions perfectly, left my house immaculate and most importantly my dog had a really lovely time with her! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a responsible house sitter!”

About: I’ve worked with dogs for 3 years, studying animal biology. Have 2 dogs at home, trained by me both from puppies. I have also spent 3 summers walking dogs at kennels. I am currently in Stirling university, I have weekends free and can night can also schedule around my timetable. I can be flexible around classes. I cannot home board as I live in a flat. But while house sitting I will follow any guidance from the owners. And make sure the dogs happy and comfortable at all times.

“Jillian took great care of our two older pups, paying detailed attention to their medicine and schedules. They were happy and healthy when returned, so we know they had a great time.”

About: I have 5 years of experience sitting for various dogs, including my family dog, a Schnauzer, a Portuguese Water Dog, and a Spanish Water Dog. I offer dog-sitting services that ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their home environment. My background in caring for different breeds helps me meet each dog's unique needs. As a professional swimmer, I train twice a day but have plenty of availability in between. My flatmate is home most of the time when I’m not, so your dog will always have someone around for companionship and care Your dog's safety is my top priority. I ensure their environment is secure, follow all specific care instructions, and provide the comfort they need while you’re away. My calm and loving approach helps your dog feel right at home. I'm more than happy to meet for a coffee or a quick chat before you decide, so you can feel confident about choosing me to care for your furry family member.

“If you're looking for a dog sitter i 100% recommend Caitlin. She done everything we asked with no problems and left our house in immaculate condition”

About: I have taken care of many different dogs. I enjoy ther company and making sure they feel loved. Walks are the he best as they are good for me and extra good for the dogs. I have mastered the skill of picking up after them and have some experience in teaching tricks. Pet care is great for me as I am a very active person so I love to walk. However I also love to relax and just be there as company. I adjust to how people look after their pets quite quickly so the pets don’t need to feel any stress or anxiety from being in a new place with a stranger

About: I've been lucky enough to have animals around me for most of my life including growing up with a German Shepherd, so I've always had a special place in my heart for dogs. Over the years, l've also cared for a variety of other pets, from rabbits and hamsters to other small animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while they're with me. I'm currently a university student, which gives me a flexible schedule around my studies. I have time throughout the week to care for and spend quality time with pets, and I'll always make sure their needs and routines are a priority. My availability may vary slightly depending on my class schedule, but i'll communicate clearly and reliably with every pet owner. I provide pet care exclusively in the pet owner’s home, where I can follow their usual routines and instructions. I prioritise your pet’s safety, comfort and wellbeing, and will treat your home and belongings with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: I grew up in a household full of medium and large dogs - labs, newfies, poodle crosses, collies, and other mixed breeds. As an adult I’ve continued to care for my friends’ and family’s pets (dogs and cats) as well as my own wee dog, Limba (a senior and sometimes grumpy Maltese poodle cross). I have experience training puppies, as well as catering to the needs of high energy, temperamental, and/or senior dogs. Although most of my experience is with dogs, over the last 2 years I have also lived with and taken care of cats. I love animals and I would love to help you out with yours! I especially invite those with grumpy dogs to reach out, as I understand firsthand how difficult it sometimes is to find people who will understand and be willing to work with them. I’m currently working part-time in the care sector, so I can largely work around your schedule. I’m often available for overnight stays as well, feel free to check with me :) I’m currently unable to offer boarding, as my senior dog does not often get along with others and I would not bring him along for walks with your dog. However, I’m happy to look after your dog(s) in your home if needed, following their regular routines.

About: I’ve had my own cat, Michael, for over eight years, so I understand the responsibility and commitment that comes with caring for a pet. I also have experience caring for pets of different ages, personalities and needs, from energetic young pets to older animals who may need a little more patience and attention. I’m confident caring for young pets and reinforcing routines and basic training, while also providing calm, gentle care for senior pets. As an active and reliable person, I love making sure pets get plenty of exercise, play and mental stimulation, always adapting to their individual needs. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine closely and make sure they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently at university, working part-time and am also a competitive athlete, so I’m used to managing a busy but flexible schedule. My training and university commitments vary throughout the week, which allows me to be adaptable and work around the needs of each pet. I’m happy to arrange walks, drop-ins, feeding visits or pet sitting around your schedule wherever possible. I understand that every pet has a different routine, so I’m flexible and will always do my best to accommodate what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my priority. I’ll take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality and any specific needs before caring for them, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully. I’m responsible, reliable and respectful of your home and belongings. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away and won’t hesitate to get in touch if I’m unsure about anything. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in safe and caring hands.

About: Having grown up with dogs, I have personally raised and cared for four family pets over the past 20+ years. This lifelong experience includes dedicated senior dog care, where I focus on the gentle pace, patience, and attentive routine needed to keep older dogs comfortable and safe. I am also skilled in basic dog training, using consistent positive reinforcement to encourage good habits during walks and home visits. Beyond caring for my own pets, I managed the daily well-being of an on-site rehomed rescue dog during my time at Bay Tree Flowers. What sets me apart as a sitter is my commitment to reliability, clear communication, and safety. As a certified workplace First Aider, I bring a calm, level-headed approach to special care requirements or unexpected situations. I am also a confident driver with my own vehicle, ensuring prompt and reliable home visits or outings. Whether your pet needs gentle senior support, active exercise, or structured routine reinforcement, I treat every animal with the highest level of affection and attentive care. I have a flexible schedule that makes integrating pet care seamless. I am available all week for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I am happy to accommodate morning visits, afternoon walks, evening check-ins, or overnight care depending on what works best for you and your pet's regular routine. As a certified First Aider with extensive experience caring for dogs—including senior pets—I prioritize safety, comfort, and peace of mind above all else. I approach every home visit and walk with strict attention to secure doors, gates, and leashes. I follow owner routines precisely, ensuring feeding, medication, training reinforcement, and quiet time are handled with care. As a confident driver with my own vehicle, I can easily transport pets if an emergency ever arises, keeping your pet safe and comfortable in their home environment.

About: I’ve had many many dogs, cats, chickens and sheep of my own, but also over many years looked after friend’s dogs, cats and small furries. Looked after pets of all ages and peculiarities. Every one is different and special. I have two dogs and two cats of my own with family help if I need to stay away. I am available at any time, with notice and can easily fit my dogs walks around visiting your pets. Pet care is my full time occupation so your pet is my priority. Whatever your pets normal routine, I can cater for them to keep life as close to your usual routine as possible. Either in your home or mine as preferred.

“Ethan was great! Jodie loved her time with him, and was very calm and happy. He kept us updated while we were gone.”

About: I own two cats and care for dogs for friends. I walk dogs on long outdoor trails or quick neighborhood circuits depending on their energy. I also provide overnight care and daytime visits for both cats and dogs in their own homes. While some sitters stick to strict schedules, I adapt feeding, play, and walking routines to keep your pets relaxed in familiar surroundings. I am a university student with a flexible schedule. I have full availability all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and weekends. On all other weekdays, I am available after 5pm for evening walks, drop in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I care for pets exclusively in the owner's home to keep them in familiar surroundings. I follow established household routines, secure doors and leashes during outings, and follow your precise feeding and medication guidelines while keeping you updated with notes and photos during visits.

“Connie was a wonderful sitter! Super friendly and easy to chat with, very much same energy so I knew our cats would get on great. All of our cats including the shy ones warmed to her very quickly and she took excellent care of them all Giving detailed updates and photos Will definitely recommend her and will be rebooking in future”

About: We have owned dogs of our own previously. We understand dogs have their established routines and we are happy to fit into that, taking on as many walks as required. We have been a member of Borrow my Doggy for 3 years looking after and walking other peoples dogs, and all 5* reviews on Trusted Housesitters. I (Gillian) grew up with cats and we have been absolutely loving looking after multiple fluffy friends on our most recent sits in Sweden & Spain. We also had chickens and marine tropical fish tank when our girls were growing up. I am semi retired now only working a couple of hours remotely so able to commit to lots of pet care. We love to travel so can't have any of our own own so the best solution is to look after other peoples. Its a Win Win! We have been looking after properties all our working life having managed our own student flats and also our Airbnbs. We currently have 5 of our own properties.
