House Sitting Stroud

“A great sit once again from Kav - it's clear just how much he cares for my dogs and their needs and I feel safe knowing he's taking care of them - they always look happy and well-looked after on my return. With the heat Kav took care to make sure they were kept hydrated and adapted their walks to keep them safe. He goes above and beyond with making sure that my home is left clean and tidy and accommodates my high-needs dogs with ease. A perfect option if you're looking for a sitter that is flexible, caring and comfortable with dogs with high needs.”

“Annie looked after our house, black lab Bandit and kitty Freddie for 3 nights. Annie was great with Bandit and he was super relaxed and happy with her. We hadn't left Bandit before but after an initial meet and greet I didn't have any worries about leaving Bandit with Annie; she's obviously a natural and you can tell she loves animals. We wouldn't hesitate to book Annie again if we go away and I'm sure Bandit and Freddie would love to see her again. Thanks Annie 😊”

With a diploma in zoology and a shared passion for animal wellbeing, your pets will be in safe, loving hands 🐶 We recently lost our beloved dog, Lilo, at age 15 and while we don't feel able to have another dog of our own, we would love to give some fuss and care to others. 🐕 You may see that we have a dog listed on our profile - Bella. This is our parents dog. She stays with us infrequently. If you are booking for a day care or overnight, we would let you know if Bella will be around. 📆 We are available Thursdays, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. 🏠 If we're visiting your home, we'll follow your instructions; making sure to give your pet the love and care it needs. 🏡 If your pet is staying in our home, we make sure to centre our days around them. We never leaving them alone in the house and ensure they get plenty of time to walk, play or snuggle depending on their needs. 🌲 We have a lovely enclosed garden with plenty of plants and grass for dogs to sniff and play. 💕 There are comfy blankets available for snoozing and a human ready to give lots of fuss and cuddles. 🛏️ We understand that pets are part of the family and that can mean a seat on the coach or a spot in the bed. In our home, all pets are welcome on the furniture.

“Savannah was brilliant with our terrier, Nelson. She was easy to communicate with, responsible, sent regular updates and Nelson clearly loves her. We will definitely be contacting Savannah in the future to look after Nelson again and highly recommend her”

About: I fell in love with animals from the age of 4 - I grew up with a cockatoo called chaz, followed by a boxer called holly then that was it, I was hooked. My first dog was a cocker spaniel his name was bailey he was such a delight, full of beans and cuddles. This made me want to learn more. I have worked in kennels and a cattery - So I have quite a broad knowledge in assisting with care and daily routines. I have also undergo behavioural training courses for dogs. I have pet sat for friends and family, stayed at their houses and dropped in for feeding/cleaning and walks. My last dog was a military trained belgium malinois - he passed away last year unfortunately but that didnt stop me. I now look after friends cats and my parents cocker spaniel. Very willing and happy to help where I can. I am a stay at home mum, with another on the way, so happy to work around your routines. Available mornings afternoons and early eve for walks, drop ins, feeds and playtime. I have experience in walking pets, feeding, medicating, cleaning out, washing and meeting all needs due to working in a cattery and kennels/ pet hotel. I have a large grassy area/ high fenced garden.

About: We have been exchanging our home for over 20 years for holidays including caring for exchange partners pets. In addition we have also been pet sitting a wide variety of animals for many years. We have had various animals of our own too. Our elderly cat has recently passed away - we are experienced with elderly pet care including giving medication. Steve is retired and has plenty of time to walk and play with your animal during the day. Sarah is working full time but is flexible and would work from your house - she will typically do the early morning feed, let out and walk and after work. Because we live in your house your pet’s routine and surroundings never need to change - we adapt our routine to theirs. We find this means your pet is far more accepting of your absence and of our presence!

“Carol did an excellent job of taking care of our dogs Winnie and Elsie and also of our house. We got home to an immaculate house and two happy dogs. She kept in touch with regular updates while we were away which was reassuring. We have no hesitation in recommending her to other pet owners.”

“Bron was absolutely fantastic! She house-sat for our high-energy 18-month-old dog over the weekend and handled him wonderfully. She was super communicative, keeping us reassured with daily updates and great photos. Ianto had a blast and bonded with her right away. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Bron the next time we need a sitter!”

About: I have looked after and owned dogs and cats for over 3 years. I know exactly what is needed to provide the best care for your pets. Whether its a spaniel that needs exercise and brain engagement or a labrador that will do anything for treats, I can adapt to your pet and their needs. I am a uni student so I have a lot of free time, especially during easter, christmas and summer where I am available 24/7 to look after your pets. I am able to drive and have no commitments other than you and your pet. I will look after your pets however you would like, whether thats keeping them in one room, having cuddles on the sofa or taking them to play in the garden. I believe its very important that your pets stick to their daily routine as much as possible to avoid distress or anxiety so I will make sure to understand their daily routine and needs.

“Lizzie was fantastic with our Flo. She accepted our booking at the last minute after our original sitter had to cancel, which was a huge relief as we were away on our honeymoon. Flo can be quite anxious, so it was important to us to find someone calm, patient, and caring. Lizzie was exactly that. She arranged a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure Flo was comfortable with her, which gave us great peace of mind. Throughout our trip, Lizzie kept us updated with regular photos and messages, so we always knew Flo was happy and well looked after. From the pictures, it looked like Flo had made a friend for life! We wouldn't hesitate to book Lizzie again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and thoughtful dog sitter.”

“Aeron was so lovely when she came to stay and look after our two terriers I wouldn't hesitate to use her again! The dogs were content and if I didn't know I wouldn't think anyone had been in the house as she left it spotless! 10/10 ☺️”
