Colin kept us updated throughout the day and was completely trustworthy. We felt totally at ease and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.”

About: I’ve my darling dog Toby for 10 years who was the sweetest border terrier you’d ever meet! Now with the nice addition of my cat Suki I have had for 4 years I have lots of experience handling and carrying for pets! I am currently working freelance so my schedule is mine. I am able to be very flexible wth my day to day to work around the needs of others. A good environment for animals is purely just about making it relaxed with a routine. For my pets, they have their feeding and exercise routines which makes the day structured.

“Lily was very thorough in her preparation to look after my dog. I got timely updates throughout the day of my dog which was lovely and she looked very happy with lily. Would book again definitely.”

“Gary was absolutely brilliant looking after our Frenchies, Remi and Buster. It’s clear that he genuinely loves animals and treats them with great care, kindness, and attention. He took excellent care of them, made sure they were happy and comfortable, and followed everything we requested perfectly. Gary is a very reliable, friendly, and caring person a true animal lover. We felt completely at ease knowing our boy and girl were in such good hands. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter and we will definitely use him again in the future. THANK YOU GARY 🐾 🐾”

About: • I'm an experienced live-in dog and house sitter who offers calm, consistent care, particularly for nervous, sensitive or rescue dogs who need patience and reassurance while their owners are away. • I've gained my experience through many successful house and pet sits, both independently and through TrustedHousesitters (where owners have consistently left excellent reviews). • Some dogs make friends straight away. Others need a little more time. I enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual and helping them feel safe, comfortable and settled while you're away. • I work online (part-time), so I can fit around your dog's routine and spend much of the day at home. This is ideal for dogs who are used to having company or who need a little longer to settle. • I love being outdoors and usually walk twice a day myself. Whether your dog enjoys long adventures or prefers a gentle sniff around the neighbourhood, I'm happy to adapt to whatever suits them best. • I always stick as closely as possible to your dog's normal routine, whether that's favourite walking routes, regular mealtimes or simply having a cuddle on the sofa. • I'm based in Colchester and regularly travel throughout London and the South East, with availability across the UK for longer bookings. • I've completed Canine First Aid training and I'm continuing to learn more about canine behaviour and body language because I genuinely enjoy understanding what makes each dog tick. • One of the reasons I started house and pet sitting is that my own rescue dog had such a lasting impact on me. She taught me the value of patience and consistency. After she died, I wasn't ready for another dog of my own, and looking after other people's dogs became a way to stay connected to the animals I love. • I know it's hard leaving your dog with someone new. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your trip, and I'll always ask how often you'd like to hear from me. * I work online, so I can fit around your dog's routine and spend much of the day at home with them. * Morning walks, longer afternoon adventures or evening strolls, I can easily adapt to whatever routine your dog is used to. * I try to keep life as familiar as possible while you're away, so I do my best to follow your dog's usual routine for walks, meals, playtime and downtime. * I offer live-in dog and house sitting for overnight stays, weekends, holidays and longer bookings throughout the year. * Before a sit, I like to arrange a quick video call so we can chat through your dog's routine and make sure you feel completely comfortable before you head away. * Before each sit, I take the time to understand your dog's usual routine, from walks and mealtimes to favourite sleeping spots and the little things that help them feel settled. * I work online part-time, so I'm able to spend much of the day at home, providing companionship and helping your dog settle into their usual routine. * I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages while you're away. I'll also ask how often you'd like to hear from me, so you can choose the level of contact that feels right for you. * I genuinely enjoy looking after people's homes and take pride in treating every property with the same care and respect I would my own. I see myself as a temporary guardian of your home as well as your dog, and I always leave everything exactly as I found it.

“Megan is lovely. Most importantly, our dogs loved her too. She did just what we had arranged, sent us photos and kept us up to date with what was going on at home, while we were away. We will be booking her again in the future. Thanks Megan, great job”

“Lucy looked after my Border Terrier for the day. They hit it off straight away, played in the garden and went on several walks. Lucy is a very nice person I would not hesitate to recommend her. Excellent communication, she answered all my questions during the booking very quickly. Booking through Rover was easy, with plenty of advice on the procedure.”

“Jane took great of my beloved dog. Caramel. Even during the heatwave, she made sure Caramel got her walks in early morning and late evening. Also the house was left clean and tidy. Thank you Jane!”

“I cannot thank Ben enough for the incredible care he provided for our cat, dog, and home while we were away. From the very start, he went above and beyond to ensure our pets were happy and our house was in perfect order. Our daughter was especially anxious about leaving our pets, but Ben put her mind at ease by sending regular, adorable pictures and updates - it meant the world to her. He kept us informed about everything, so we never had to worry. When we returned, the house was spotless, and our pets were clearly relaxed and well-loved in our absence. Ben is truly reliable, caring, and professional - we wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. If you need a pet and house sitter who treats your home and furry family like his own, Ben is the one. Highly recommend!”

Andy C.

“Bianca was incredible in taking care of our spaniel Red! We had regular photo updates and we were at total ease knowing we could enjoy our day and he was happy and very well taken care of 😇 we’ll definitely be asking Bianca to take care of him again!”

About: Since the age of 13 I have looked after friends and families pets from cats, dogs, horses, rabbits and guinea pigs. Between the ages of 18-21 I worked off recommendations for house sits and now that I work fully remote I have the opportunity to be available throughout the day. I can provide many recommendations for peace of mind for overnight house sits, drop ins and walks 🐶 Im currently self employed as a social media manager and photographer so I have lots of time spent at my laptop at home. This way I can be entirely flexible around you and your beloved pets needs! In my own home I currently have no pets of my own so they will be my sole focus, with a fenced in garden. In your own home I will stay in constant communication with you and run through everything so we are both happy we will be keeping your family member safe

“Karen did a fantastic job looking after our two dogs. We couldn't have been happier with the care and attention they received. Truly wonderful!”

Neil F.

“Harriette looked after our cat really well. She was friendly polite and really great with communication. Thank you 🙏 we'd highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have been caring for pets since I was around 10 years old. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, as well as pets of different ages, personalities and routines. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person looking after your pets, so I always take the time to understand their normal routine, likes, dislikes and any individual needs. I work from home, which gives me lots of flexibility and means I can spend plenty of time with the animals in my care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m happy to follow feeding and walking routines, provide lots of playtime and attention, and of course give plenty of cuddles to pets who want them! My aim is for your pet to feel safe, settled and loved while you’re away and for you to be able to relax knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home which gives me much larger availability to care for my own animals and to give me time to care for others. I live at home with my mum so thankfully we also have someone in for my dogs/cats and I am able to do the same for someone else. I work full-time from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I can easily work pet care around my schedule, including regular feeding, toilet breaks, walks, playtime and lots of company. This also means pets in my care won’t be left alone for long periods. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow their usual routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding, medication, walks and household rules. I make sure their environment is secure and pay close attention to their behaviour so I can spot if anything seems unusual. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.
