“We’ve had a fantastic experience with Emily. She looked after our Olde Tyme Bulldog while we were away and it gave us real peace of mind. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos she sent through, it was lovely to see how happy our dog was in her care. Communication was excellent throughout, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and attentive dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“We met Ana a few times before our holiday, a quick visit one day and a few weeks later we left him for a few hours. We could already see how settled he was with her. On our holidays we had several updates and pictures, Richard obviously had a lovely time. We highly recommend Ana, she obviously has a huge love of dogs, and if Richard is anything to go by they love her too.”
“Nicola and Kevin were a good choice. Our old dog had regular walks in his pushchair and on the lead. He was happy and settled from the moment he arrived. We would be happy for him to stop again. Thanks Nicola and Kevin”

About: In our family, we’ve had pets for many years, including cats, guinea pigs, and a hamster. We truly love animals and understand how important they are as part of the family. We also had a very positive experience as members of TrustedHousesitters, where we cared for cats in other people’s homes. This helped us become even more attentive, responsible, and respectful of each pet’s routine and personality. Now we’re here and would be happy to meet new four-legged friends — both cats and dogs. We provide gentle, attentive, and loving care, making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and never lonely. I work from home most weekdays, which means I’m around for most of the day and can give your pet plenty of attention, care, and companionship. Your pet will not be left alone for long periods and will always have someone nearby. I’m also available on weekends and happy to be flexible to suit your schedule. I can provide regular updates and photos for your peace of mind. At the moment, we have a calm and quiet home with just two fish, creating a peaceful environment for visiting pets. We provide a safe, clean, and comfortable space where your pet will receive plenty of attention and care. We always follow feeding routines, preferences, and any specific instructions from the owner.
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and have over 20 years of experience caring for my own cats. Alongside this, I have around 10 years of hands-on experience looking after dogs for extended periods, often for weeks at a time. I’m very comfortable with animals of all personalities and needs, and I genuinely enjoy providing them with a safe, happy, and loving environment while they’re in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I’m not currently working, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m home most of the day, so I can maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide regular playtime, and ensure pets feel comfortable and settled. I’m able to adapt my routine around each pet’s needs, whether that’s multiple walks for dogs, quiet companionship for cats, or sticking closely to specific care instructions. Because of my availability, I can offer a calm, attentive environment and won’t need to rush or leave pets alone for long periods. I provide attentive, reliable care whether pets are in my home or in their owner’s home. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where pets can settle in comfortably, sticking closely to their usual routines for feeding, play, and rest. I make sure they get plenty of attention, stimulation, and affection so they feel relaxed and at home. When caring for pets in their owner’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I ensure feeding schedules, walks, litter or garden care, and any specific needs are met consistently. I also keep owners updated for peace of mind, so they know their pets are happy and well looked after while they’re away.

I like to offer a home from home environment where your dog can feel relaxed and at ease.
“I highly recommend Jo! I left my 1-year-old Labrador Maddie with her for the day, and I couldn't be happier with the service we received. Jo made me feel at ease straight away about leaving Maddie, who had never stayed away from home before. She communicated really well before and during the stay, sending photos and videos of Maddie who got to enjoy at least two rural long walks. Will definitely be using Jo again for doggy day care.”
About: I have experience in dog boarding for my external family on a regular. My flexible working schedule would allow me to spend more time with dogs. I’m surrounded by woodland that is great for dog walking. I work 4 days a week . I work from home majority of the time. I have 2 children who love dogs, they are aged 7 and 8. I have a fenced back garden. My house has 4 bedrooms with a large kitchen and a large living room so dogs have plenty of space.

I can’t praise Ana enough, She looked after my dog like it was her own,During the week of our dogs stay Ana kept us informed by way of videos showing them enjoying walks ,and playing together,it made our holiday more enjoyable knowing that our dog was being so well cared for,Thanks again Ana ,we will definitely be using this service again,
Wendy is fabulous. Teddy had a wonderful time staying with her. She sent me regular updates, with photos, so I was reassured he was in very capable hands. I will certainly ask her to look after my pet again, and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter.
We can’t recommend Sarah highly enough. Alfie absolutely loves staying here and is always made to feel so welcome and settled. He can be quite anxious around new people, but he feels completely at home with Sarah and her family. For Alfie it’s like a little holiday — he has a brilliant time and gets on so well with the kids. In fact, whenever we come to pick him up it often takes him ages to even realise we’re there because he’s so relaxed and happy! We’ve trusted Sarah to look after Alfie a couple of times now and wouldn’t leave him with anyone else. It gives us complete peace of mind knowing he’s being so well looked after and treated like part of the family.
We were very happy with the level of discussion before the stay but even happier with the care given while we were away ! Max & Sam go everywhere with us but a family wedding meant that they had to stay behind and it’s a massive bonus for all if they are looked after well . They were with Jordan and even fireworks couldn’t spoil their stay . We were also kept up to date with messages and appreciated the updates - thank you Jordan .
Helaina looked after our 5 month old puppy while we were away for a week on holiday. She was attentive and adaptable to her needs. We were kept up to date with how things were going and sent pictures and videos, which clearly showed our puppy having a good time, including socialising with other dogs. Helaina really knows her stuff when it comes to caring for dogs and is aware of how to tailor the care she provides to the needs of the individual dog, including with enrichment activities. She is a great communicator and responded promptly to my messages. I would not hesitate to recommend her and cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of our puppy.
