“Laura was fantastic coming to look after our dog Rupert for the evening last minute after we were let down. She looked after him so well, sending lots of pictures and taking him for a lovely walk. We trusted her completely with him from the minute we met her. He was so happy and relaxed when we came back. Thank you SO much Laura - we would love to book with you again!”



“Ellie was brilliant with my dog Koda!! Had to find someone very last minute and am a super anxious pet parent but from the moment I met Ellie she put me at ease, she was so great and with Koda! Would absolutely book again! 🥰”


“Erin was brilliant whilst pet sitting our puppy patch. She listened to Patch's routine, gave us updates and left the house spotless. Patch was fast asleep when we returned and very relaxed. Will definitely be booking again in future 😊”


About: Hi my name is Maddie I’ve been around different animals and had many pets growing up. I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Over the years, I’ve gained hands on experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies and kittens to gentle senior dogs and cats who need a little extra support. My first job was working in a local cat rescue and cattery so I gained a lot of experience there and that really helped develop my love of looking after and caring for animals. I’ve raised three dogs from puppies, and also I have cared for my senior dog who had several medical needs, and I’m confident giving medication when required to both dogs and cats. I also have house sitting experience, looking after several dogs and cats while ensuring they felt safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. My priority is to provide the same love, care, and attention your pets are used to, so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I work full time from home and am available to work anywhere remotely. I can do weekend boardings as well. I am unavailable Wednesdays but other than that I am fully available and flexible to meet your needs. I am fully insured and can send over proof if needed. I live with my boyfriend in a large house which has a small fenced back garden. I live within seconds of a big park where I can take your dogs for a walk and for whatever their exercise needs may be. I love all animals big and small and I am confident lead walking all types of dogs. I like to offer a home from home service so am flexible with your requirements. Pet Sitting & Boarding – When I’m in your home, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine closely: feeding, walks, play, medication, and any special care they need. If they’re staying with me, they’ll enjoy plenty of love, attention, and comfort in a relaxed home setting, whilst keeping to their typical routine. I can send daily updates and send photos/videos as much as you would like. My most important goal is to ensure your pets happiness but also ensuring you are updated frequently so you can rest assured your pet is getting the best care possible.

“Oakley had a great time with Lucy, and she made us feel at ease leaving him with a dog sitter. Lucy met us and Oakley beforehand to go over his needs and read through the information we provided. She sent us updates and photos and our home was left in perfect condition. Highly recommend if you want to feel safe and your dog to have a great time :)”


“Josephine was amazing. She came to meet Roland ahead of the booking, her communication throughout was fantastic sharing videos and pictures frequently. She was very courteous of our home and was calm and comfortable with our large breed dog. He was very chilled when we arrived home so testament to him feeling relaxed in her company and Josephine maintaining his routine perfectly for us. 100% recommended.”


“Olivia was amazing when house sitting for our GSD, Bonnie. We did a meet and greet beforehand and she put us immediately at ease. She kept us updated throughout the sit and Bonnie had a great time. Olivia is extremely mature, caring and you can tell she is a teacher. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again and she will definitely be out first port of call when we next need short term care for Bonnie!”


“Hannah was absolutely brilliant looking after our pup Ludo! She clearly loves dogs and immediately bonded with him which was brilliant to see and left us with no worries at all in leaving them together for the evening. Hannah sent us some regular updates through the evening, including Ludo fast asleep after they'd been playing in the garden together and again once he'd gone to sleep for the night. We'd definitely recommend Hannah, she was great!”


About: I have looked after serval dogs for the weekend and in the evenings and have a lot of experience. I have had 2 cats personally but unfortunately have now gone to heaven and a dog back at my hometown of Derby. She’s an old lady now but I trained her as a little puppy when we first got her. Work 9-5pm so can do Friday - Sunday for long stays and in the mornings/evenings for any walking or checking in on the little guys Our home is clean and very spacious. We have a garden and parks all around for walking and taking out for some fresh air. No children in the house.

About: I've grown up with dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for them, from daily walks to adapting to their unique personalities and needs. Since losing our much-loved family dog last year, I’ve really missed the companionship and joy they bring. I'm calm, kind, and confident handling all sorts of behaviours—nothing surprises me! I’d love to give other dogs the same love, attention, and care I gave my own. I work Monday to Friday, 9:30–5:30, but I work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays — so I’ve got plenty of flexibility to do drop-ins or have your pet stay with me. I’m happy to work around your needs and routine! I’m also free most weekday evenings, and I can often accommodate weekends, overnight stays, and even longer holiday stays. I have a secure garden for the dogs to use as well as a different walking routes nearby. As well as a car to come and collect/drop off if needed. I always take the time to understand each animal’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs. Whether we’re out on a walk or relaxing at home, I keep a close eye on their behaviour and surroundings, making sure they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll never let a dog off-lead unless I have full permission and trust, and I provide regular updates so you know they’re in safe, caring hands.

About: "He never does that" Famous last words before I couldn't feel my legs after they were sat on by a full grown Doberman in a beer garden which then became the best day of my life. I have a lifetime of owning cats and dogs, including rescue pets from abroad, pregnant cats that gave birth to 5 kittens under my bed which started 8 weeks of mayhem, visually impaired dogs, cats who insist on bring "gifts" home everytime they go out, manly dogs who run away from kittens and cats who want to come for drives in the car. Nothing really surprises me anymore but I love watching them try. I am adaptable to suit pet needs and would look after your pet in the way I would my own pets and spoil them rotten... within reason. I work part time in hospitality so my availability can be flexible. I can be available for you and your pet at short notice and am fully available for overnight stays if needed. I am happy to pet sit in your pets own home to avoid any upset to their routine with a new environment. I can provide a full Dbs check and can provide first aid to pet if required.

About: I have recently started working from home, which has made me available to look after the pets of those in need. I have personal experience with multiple breeds of dog, both small and large. From Great Danes to Terriers and my family once owned 3 Greyhounds believe it or not! Throughout the course of the day I will be more than happy to send out pup-dates to the owners for reassurance :) I do have a kitten but he grew up with dogs so and meet and greet would be required for boarding x Both myself and my partner work from home with flexible hours so always available and I like to keep active so there may well be an afternoon walk on the cards. We have a child and pet free house and can work from anywhere so will be able to look after the pet wherever they feel most comfortable. Please note - if you are requesting boarding in my home, please message me once you have made the request and we will arrange a daycare beforehand. This helps both myself and you as the owner know it’s a good match whilst you’re away! (I also like my home the way it is and Rover doesn’t cover damages 😅)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up with a black Labrador called Ben and now my family has a 4 year old fox red Labrador called Cooper. He lives back in the North East but I now live in Manchester. I have lots of experience looking after and walking all kinds of dogs, including Milo (black Labrador), Murphy (cocker spaniel), Finn (Patterdale Terrier) and Angus (golden retriever). I work from home 3 days a week, in the office 2 days a week and have weekends off. The office is very dog friendly! I have plenty of time to look after your pets and am able to work around your needs. I take the safety of your pets very seriously. Having always had Labradors that will eat anything they can find, I make sure to always keep a safe living environment.

“Lauren was an awesome sitter for our two French bulldogs. Even when one of them got sick overnight, she took such good care of them, was super communicative, and gave the dogs lots of love. We’d love to have Lauren sit for us again!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. Caring for family pets especially in times that they really needed it has brought me great deals of happiness. I have also looked after pets belonging to friends and family, some of which presenting unique challenges that required me to get a deep understanding of the pet and to work specifically to ensure a happy pet. I have my own coaching business meaning that my schedule is perfectly suited towards house sitting and pet care, I work a lot from home and have a lot of free time. When caring for pets in someone else's home, I follow their routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of exercise, and have lots of love and attention. I always respect the home—keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how I found them—so both you and your pets feel at ease while you’re away.

“I have known Jesamine for many years and have always found her to be a pleasant, responsible, and reliable person. She has always been an animal lover and is able to establish a good rapport with all kinds of animals, both her own pets and those belonging to other people. Even as a young girl she often volunteered to look after her neighbours' pets and would regularly take their dogs for walks. As well as dogs, she has cared for cats, birds, rabbits, hamsters, rats, fish. I would definitely recommend her as a responsible and loving pet caregiver.”
