House Sitting Street

“Pickle was so pleased to see Cherie, He had a great time, walked throughout the day and had fun in the doggie field, Cherie was very professional looking after Pickle, He sat by the door for a while when Cherie left, and slept loads from being worn out, I would recommend Cherie to anyone and have booked her again already.”

“Veronika looked after our laborador, Max, in our home and took great care and patience to get to know him and to provide him with the best possible care and love. He clearly enjoyed her company and felt safe with her. I had regular updates, videos and photos so I could see how Max was getting on. Veronika also took great care of our house. I wouldn't hesitate to have Veronika look after Max again.”

About: I’m a seasoned pet sitter with 4+ years of experience and a full house of my own. I’m confident in administering medication, including insulin, and I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages and breeds — from fluffy long-hairs that need regular grooming to independent farm or feral cats. I have a company called Woofs & Whiskers, which provides pet and house sitting, which allows me to offer a wide range of availability during weekdays, weekends and school holidays (day and night). To supplement this during quieter months, I work as a bank support worker for adults with learning disabilities and autism. Working on the bank (0 hour contract) allows me to prioritise our pet sitting business, which is my first love. I know that leaving your pets and your home in someone else’s care takes a huge amount of trust. My aim is always to make things as familiar, calm and consistent as possible for your pets while you’re away, and to give you the reassurance that they’re being well cared for. Wherever possible, I will maintain your pet’s usual routine, including their normal feeding times, walks, bedtime routines and the little habits that help them feel secure. I’m happy to administer medication, follow specialist or prescribed diets, and work with any individual care instructions you provide. For dogs, I will initially stick to walking routes and areas they already know, rather than introducing unfamiliar places straight away. Once we’ve built a relationship and I understand their personality, behaviour and recall, we can agree whether exploring further afield or walking off lead is appropriate. Building trust and a positive relationship with your pets is really important to me. I’ll take things at their pace, particularly with pets who are nervous, anxious or simply need a little longer to decide whether I’m worthy of their approval! I’m equally respectful of the fact that I’m being trusted with your home as well as your pets. I will only use or enter the areas of your home that are necessary for their care and will always aim to leave your home exactly as I found it. While you’re away, I’ll maintain regular contact and updates, including photos and messages as agreed, so you know how everyone is getting on without having to wonder or chase for information. I am fully insured for pet sitting and am very happy to provide a copy of my insurance documentation for your reassurance. Most importantly, I want you to be able to go away knowing that your pets are safe, comfortable and cared for by someone who will treat them, their routines and your home with respect.

“Nina is brilliant, my cat, Brian, loves it when she comes to stay and all the extra attention he gets. Nina stayed over and looked after everything as if it was her own.”

“Colin was amazing with my two boys. He spent the weekend at our home while we went away, provided us with photo updates of the dogs having the best time. I don’t think they even missed us as they got so much attention from Colin. I would highly recommend Colin to anyone who needs a dog sitter and woild definitely us him again…..thanks Colin!”

“Maya was excellent, I was so lucky as Maya works at Bertie’s vets so already knew what a little diva he can be. So lucky that she was free to look after Bert, it’s a nicer experience for him to have people he knows come visit him! Thanks again Maya ❤️”

About: I’ve been around animals all my life from caring for cats to tortoises! I have a genuine passion for making a difference to the animal and providing the best care I can. Meeting all the different animals and personalities makes me so happy and uplifts my mood❤️ I’ve just finished summer work and looking for something a bit different for the winter. I’m very flexible with dates and times so very easy fitting sits in! I would ensure that the pets are kept in a safe and secure environment at all times and the care will vary depending on the need to each animal. I am very gentle and easy going so very calming with the animals.

“Christopher was an excellent house and dog sitter. He was very professional, proactive on letting us know how our dog Maia was doing. He took her out for many walks and gave us updates on each one. When we got back Maia was extremely happy and comfortable. He was respectful with our rules with her and could tell she was very well taken care of. Christopher also left our place immaculate condition. Would recommend him anytime and will be our go to guy. It’s always hard leaving your dog with someone but Im happy we left her Christopher.”

“Ben has been a great find! He knew what to do with all the energy of my Cocker Spaniel and took him on lovely walks every day. Communication has been great over the weekend and I love just how easy it has all been. We recommend Ben for sure.”

“Lauren was very responsive to my request for sitting. She was quick to arrange a meet and greet. Lauren is professional but also kind and gentle with Willow. Lauren left my home in immaculate condition and even took the bedding off the bed she slept in.”

About: I have taken care of lots of dogs of the years for family and friends and enjoy looking after any type of dog no matter there needs! I can offer walks for as long as a dog would need, I'm happy to pop in and just sit with your dog or they can come to our loving home and spend the night! I'm a full time worker but have weekends off. I live very close to some fields so can take your dog out as many time as needed I have a fenced garden with some room to play and have 2 other dogs to keep them company as well. I'm more than happy to crate them if needed

We also came home to a beautifully clean home ! Thank you Emma , it has been a pleasure to have you here .”

About: I'm a Psychology Undergrad at Cambridge Uni but a dog handler in my summer holidays! The one thing all my extended family and parent's friends knew about me as a child was my dog mad reputation. From toddlerhood, I would smile the biggest smiles when I got to meet a dog. My parents would make up for not getting me a dog by dog sitting our friend's dogs, often for weeks. A large brown lab called Denby was only rivaled by Kate, a golden King Charles Cavelier, in my affections, and both would greet me with wags that shook their whole body, accompanied with enthusiastic noises and licking, when their owners passed them over. On two week camps we would go on every year with a large friendgroup, I would always be found cuddling Tickles, another King Charles Cavelier but gorgeously tricoloured. Honestly my love affairs with dogs are endless! Every evening after we moved at 13, I played with the neighbour's border terriers, teaching them routines we performed together. I loved it so much I set up a dog training/walking/sitting business in my gap year by posting a film of my routines with them on local facebook sites, and got clients whose dogs I've already been handling professinally. I've been training a Bichon Frise called Rolo every week, who now knows how to sit, come when called and high five me, and dog sitting an adorable King Charles Cavelier puppy Freddie as well as a wolf-like German Shepherd/Malinois cross called Hugo. My clients love me and have already written me glowing reviews for my second video on Facebook, but I'll only pick illustrative quotes from their reviews here, as you can read them in full on the Review section of my page: As Freddie's mum says I "took notes as I was telling her about his routines which really impressed me" and "sent me frequent photos and videos while she was looking after him which was really thoughtful and helpful" - I do this with all my clients and it's my pleasure to. As she also says, I'm "very knowledgeable about dogs" and "even demonstrated to us how to get him to do certain things" - I'll happily give bonus dog training during the sit if you tip me £5! If you go with me, your dog will be smothered in love and you'll feel so safe leaving them in my hands. My promise 🤗 because its my pleasure 😄 Cambridge Uni has short, 8 week terms - the rest of the time I'm on holiday (Christmas, Easter and a 3 month Summer break!) and would love to dogsit! As Freddie's owner who I puppysat for said in a review she wrote me for my Facebook dog ad, I "took notes as I was telling her about his routines which really impressed me" and "sent me frequent photos and videos while she was looking after him which was really thoughtful and helpful" - I do this with all my clients and it's my pleasure to. As she also says, I'm "very knowledgeable about dogs" and "even demonstrated to us how to get him to do certain things" - I'll happily give bonus dog training during the sit if you tip me £5! Just let me know what you want and you know it's going to happen 😊. My promise because its my pleasure 😊.

About: I have looked after animals belonging to both family and friends, as well as my own from a young age. I have experience training young dogs to grow into well behaved, fun loving dogs that are a joy to look after. Having looked after dogs of all ages I have experience providing the specialised care that they require at different stages of their lives. My genuine love for animals and commitment to their wellbeing ensures a safe, happy experience for your pets. I am currently working a part-time job so I am able to be very flexible to fit around your pets busy schedule! I am available most days and times during the week aside from most saturdays. I am aware of the variability of pets natures and requirements and am therefore very adaptable in the ways that I provide care. From more training heavy, close supervision to a more relaxed, play-focused environment I will provide enthusiastic and attentive care for all of your pets specific needs. I will be very happy to discuss the best way to care for your pet to ensure everyone (especially your furry friend) is happy.

About: I grew up in the countryside with a large menagerie of animals and then went into pet sitting. I have several regular clients who book me on repeat every year because I provide a great level of care for their pets. Genuine animal lover and love getting out and about in the countryside with a four legged friend or 3. Fun, fresh air and snuggles guaranteed. I work from home and I'm self employed which means I'm free to go for walkies whenever it's needed and I'm always with your pet to keep them company. I have a home educated daughter who is a real animal lover and has grown up pet sitting with me since she was a few months old. We both love to get out and about in the countryside and love the company of a dog or two on our rambles. We know the area well and always seek out great dog walks and places for them to play. I have a fenced garden and a warm, cosy home where pets can hop onto the bed or sofas for cuddles. I live on the edge of the countryside so only 5 minutes walk before we reach open fields, hills and streams for playtime. I have been pet sitting for many years and always take impeccable care of their homes and pets.

“Tianna came over to meet Freddie before the dates of the booking to run through things and meet him. She got on well with him and took time to Understand him. He’s a lurcher and a bit of a wuss lol. Oniy my second time away from him. Freddie was really well cared for and loved Tianna staying. He slept with her and she kept in touch and checked things so he didn’t fret too much She’s a kind responsible person who I thoroughly trusted and would recommend. Freddie is now trying to find her! Come back Tianna lol 🐶🐾”
