Pet Sitting in Sunderland

About: Ever since my fur baby passed away last year I’ve so missed having a dog around. I love all breeds of dogs, having owned German Shepherds and previously been boarding a Cane Corso, large breeds are welcome here❤️ I work full time, however my early mornings (before 7.15am) or my evenings after 4pm are always free. I typically have a Monday off of work and free all day then, I can board dogs Sunday (after work), overnight and all day Monday. I will have more flexibility in June - being able to board for days/weeks at a time. I have an enclosed front and back garden, with the back garden having high fences, I have back patio doors to allow the dog to come freely in and out of the house. Your pet can treat my home like their home, I want them to feel comfortable with me and enjoy their time here. Whether that be snuggled up together on the sofa or giving them their own space wherever they prefer.

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, giving me a natural understanding of their needs and personalities. I’m experienced in feeding, walking and providing plenty of care and attention. I adore all animals and I genuinely love making sure pets feel safe and happy. I’m currently a full-time university student, during term times I am able to fit pet care around my studies. During the summer break my availability increases allowing a more flexible schedule. I care for pets in their own home by following their routines. I keep them comfortable and safe and I always respect the owners home while providing reliable, attentive care.

“We could not recommend Charlotte enough! From the initial communication up to the final check-in, she has been brilliant. The meet-and-greet was really relaxed, and our cats warmed to Charlotte straightaway! We really appreciated the daily updates on the Rover Card (and photos) it provided us with a real peace of mind whilst we were away. We especially appreciated that Charlotte listened to what we said when we first met, and made comments on the Rover Card specific to each cat. Thank you, Charlotte, we will absolutely be coming to you again!”

About: We are a family of four with a lovely lab cross sharpie who loves to play. We have two children who love all animals and would love your pet as our own. Looking for the chance to go for long walks with dogs and have some furry company. I have had dogs my whole life and I can’t imagine a better way to spend my days. We have trained every dog we have with the basic commands sit, stay and recall. Myself and my partner work from home so we have plenty time to look after your furry friends. We live on a great location for lovely walks so can walk 3 times a day I have a fenced back garden and an enclosed front garden on the back of a huge field area. We also have a dog flap so there is no issue with going in the garden. The dogs will have free rein of the down stairs of the home and can accommodate crates if needed

About: I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong passion and ultimate goal in life and dedication to all of Earths creatures. I am a student studying Animal Management at college with the ambition to progress to University to study zoology. Who better to trust with your animals than someone whose life goal is to care and protect the welfare of all living things? I am currently a volunteer at local animal shelter and charity ‘Pawz for thought’ where I assist in taking care of multiple cats and kittens who are in need of our help. I am available from Saturday to Mondays with occasional availability on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons. This is due to my College Schedule and volunteering schedule which are all vitally important for my future. My current pets, my heart and souls in my life, my two cats Caillou and Nova, are house cats and remain indoors unless equipped with a harness and strict watch. I am an advocate for spaying and neutering and putting in precautions for all aspects of animal health and welfare. Ensuring an animal is happy, safe and comfortable are all priorities I take pride in harbouring. I am well versed in the 5 essential welfare needs for animals under The Animal Act 2006 and I take this legislation into my animals care very seriously, ensuring an animal under my care is given the best care possible.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years, primarily through owning my own 7-year-old cockapoo and helping friends by dog-sitting and caring for their pets when needed. I handle daily walks, feeding, playtime, basic grooming, and providing a calm, safe, and loving environment. Through caring for my own dog, I understand the importance of routine, patience, and individual attention, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I work an office job 9-5 Monday to Friday, with 1 working from home day. My dog currently goes out with a dog walker therefore I understand the trust you must have for them! I am free on weekends and spend my days going for long walks with my dog, and treating him to puppachinos. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and following their normal routine as closely as possible. I take time to learn each pet’s needs, including feeding schedules, walk routines, energy levels, and any special instructions. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a calm, clean environment with plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and downtime. I make sure pets are supervised, have fresh water at all times, and are fed according to the owner’s instructions.

“My cat, Harvey, was very happy and content in Sima's care. I found Sima to be friendly and reliable and I happily recommend her.”

About: My name is Chantelle and I live in Washington in the North East. I spend most of my time exploring the mountains in my camper van but when I’m home I love to spend my spare time walking dogs. You will never find someone who adores dogs as much as I do! I have a car so I am able to drive to collect your furry friend and then take them to a fun location for a walk (parks, forests, beaches - wherever the road takes us). I have experience in dog sitting puppies as well as older dogs. I am full of energy so I never get bored of playing fetch or running around/playing with toys. I am also a very loving and cuddly person so I am more than happy to cuddle up and relax if I am looking after an older dog. I treat every dog as though it is my own. I am pet first aid trained - certified by the International Open Academy Pet First Aid & CPR. I have a lot of experience caring for short nose breeds (mainly frenchies & pugs). I am often travelling in my campervan, so I update my profile each week showing my up to date availability. I cannot commit to regular days of dog sitting but people usually keep me in mind as a back up or for occasional walks. Feel free to send me a message if there’s a specific date you have in mind and I’ll try my best to accommodate! I look forward to meeting your pooch. Thanks for reading, Chantelle I do a lot of adventuring in my campervan but I will update my availability whenever I am home. If I’m home I’m always thrilled to be out walking with a pooch. I usually take your dog somewhere fun to walk - somewhere with lots of open space away from other dogs. At home I have two fenced gardens and my house is smoke free with no children or other pets. I adore dogs so I will treat every dog as if it were my own.

About: I have taken care of my friend's dogs for over 4 years now, dogsitting, walks and vet appointments, and I feel confident to look after your pets whenever you need. I am a university student with only two days at uni with most of my time being spent at home studying on my own at home which makes my schedule very flexible. My flat has restricted windows, and there is a garden/parking which is walled in the back of my apartment block where I can take your pets for fun time on the grass.

“I recently hired Charlotte to care for my two cats, Bonnie and Clyde, while I was away on a week-long trip. From the initial consultation to the final visit, Charlotte was professional, reliable, and showed a genuine love for animals. The cats clearly adored Charlotte, and I received regular updates and photos and videos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. The house was also spotless when I returned, which was a lovely bonus. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Charlotte to anyone seeking top-notch care for their beloved pets.”

“Jenna has looked after my fur babies for many years. She understands dogs and their needs. Jenna has house sat my fur babies and is very trustworthy. Jenna and her husband go above and beyond when looking after my fur babies. It means that when my fur babies are with Jenna I know they will be safe, happy and well looked after and I am relaxed and not anxious while away from my fur babies.”
