About: As someone who has grown up surrounded by animals -dogs, cats, hamsters, and birds, I have a lifetime of hands-on experience in pet care. Since I was 11, friends and family have trusted me with their beloved pets, and I’ve always provided reliable, loving, and attentive care. While I adore all animals, I have a special place in my heart for energetic, playful pets who love to engage and explore. I’ve grown up with dachshunds (and still have the cutest wire-haired one in the family!) and now they’ve become a bit of a special interest for me 🐾 I am a part time waitress, with plenty of time on my hands. I am available 5-6 evenings each week, and spend the majority of my time at home, giving me plenty of time to spend with your lovely animals! Living right beside the riverside and multiple green spaces gives me plenty of opportunity for enriching walks, whilst the pet free home environment allows for a calm space for shy animals.

About: I'm a passionate animal lover who shares my home with my miniature poodle Camembert (Cami) and five Sphynx cats, so animals are very much at the centere of my daily life. Cami is friendly, polite with other dogs, and great company for any other dogs on a walk :) While I'm new to working with dogs professionally, I have genuine hands-on experience with a wide range of dogs, from a tiny fox terrier puppy to a 70kg Akita mix, a reactive German Shepherd/Husky cross, cocker spaniels, puggles, and more. I've also cared for dogs in my home for extended periods, including a boisterous 10 month old Labrador/Staffy cross who needed structure and routine, and a 12 year old Beagle who needed a calm and gentle environment. I'm currently working towards my Kennel Club Crufts Bronze Good Citizen award with Cami, and enrolled on IMDT courses to become a certified dog trainer, so while I'm at the start of my professional journey, I'm actively building the knowledge and skills to back up my passion. Every dog in my care gets my full attention. I keep my bookings small deliberately, so I can give each one the time and care they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Cami and I start every day with a morning walk, and we also do an hour of training split across two sessions in our garden, so structure and consistency are already baked into my day. Monday to Friday I'm based at home(self employed), giving me flexibility to fit drop in visits and walks around a steady, animal focused routine. I treat every client's home with the same care I'd want shown to my own. I follow the owner's instructions to the letter when it comes to keys, access, and keeping the property secure, and I make sure everything is locked up properly before I leave. Before any booking I ask for a full picture of the animal, their habits, quirks, and any specific needs. Wherever possible I also like to do a meet and greet with the owner present beforehand, so the dog can get familiar with me in a relaxed setting, the owner can see how we interact, and we can all make sure it feels like the right fit before committing to anything.

About: Having grown up with different dog breeds since I was 7 I am committed to providing compassionate and personalised care to dogs ensuring their happiness and safety. I am an excellent communicator and problem solver which enables me to adapt to unique needs of each pet and provide exceptional customer service to pet owners. I am currently working 5 days a week . I sometimes have availability on a weekday however the majority I have both evening and weekend availability. I have a fenced garden to ensure your furry friends can relax and play in a safe environment , I always send updates of your favourite furry friend to ensure your mind is at ease

“Thank you to Melanie and her partner as they were just PURRFECT cat sitters. I had daily pics and videos of them both enjoying their company with lots of play time. If you’re going away and want to rest assure that your fur babies are in safe hands then I highly recommend them. I will definitely be using them again for any future holidays 🌟”

“Ganna was lovely and professional with my girls - she made me feel very confident leaving her to check in on them! She wanted lots of information before hand which made me feel very settled and my girls loved her.”

“Ellie is an amazing and trustworthy pet sitter. She looked after our 2 kittens while we were away and she was genuinely loving and caring for them. She kept us updated with pictures and messages everyday and she kept their spaces clean and tidy. We would definitely recommend her to everyone. Thanks Ellie 💖🙏✨”

About: I have had and taken care of dogs since I was a young child. I have looked after other people’s dogs for a couple years. I have trained my own dog which has now sadly passed away. I retired this year and so I am available all week now! I am very flexible and can do most days of the week ! I have a fenced garden for dogs to play with a ball or just relax! I usually put the dogs bed my side during the day in the kitchen/living room . At night time we have an area off the kitchen where the dog has their own space and they can also be here during the day. Whenever the dog feels comfortable is fine with me. However I don’t have dogs upstairs in bed.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats from an early age, whether it has been family, friends or work colleagues, I’ve been on hand. Very reliable and trusted worthy. I’m available week days during the day. My catchment area is within 5 miles of KT5. For many years, being an animal lover, I have looked after pets. I stroke the dogs of passers by and cats that come to greet me!’ I truly would love the opportunity to look after your cherished pet. With a dog or cat plenty of strokes! I give care and attention. I want to give you peace of mind that your pet is in good hands while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, growing up with both cats and dogs, so looking after pets has always come naturally to me. I now have a corgi of my own, so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I love playing with both dogs and cats, but I’m also happy to just keep them company and help them feel relaxed while you’re away. I work from home, which means your pet will have company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I always try to treat every pet like my own and pay attention to their individual needs and personality. I also have experience giving medication if needed, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe hands. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and regular walks. I already have a routine with my own dog, so adding another pet feels very natural. I’m able to be flexible with walks, feeding times, and any specific needs your pet has. Whether it’s a quick check-in, longer walks, or full-day care, I can adjust my schedule to make sure your pet is well looked after and not left alone for long. I have a fenced garden, so pets can enjoy safe outdoor time and toilet breaks. I make sure to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, and any special care instructions.

“Juste is absolutely fantastic. Caring, diligent and highly attentive. Fantastic photos and detailed updates made us feel so comfortable and happy. As new to the area, we are thrilled and the cats are so happy.”

About: I have around 5 years experience with dogs especially: walking and sitting in my home. I did around 2 years here in Surbiton with a dog I grew really close to and more when I was a teenager in Germany. I need notice as I’m working but I often work from home and a dog can spend that time with me. I can do walks at lunch time and before and after work. I usually work Sunday to Thursday and Sunday and Thursday I’m at home. Depending on the dog and its age I can either play with the dog, take the dog for walks or just spend time with the dog in the home.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs my entire life. At 17 I started house and pet sitting for friends and family, and at 19 I got a job at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I got this job in part because I was at university and missed my own dogs, but also because I remembered the anxiety that sometimes comes with leaving your dog in the care of someone else and liked the idea of being someone people trusted to love and care for their pets like their own. I work fully from home, so I can keep your pet company all day! I work a split shift, so I am up early in the morning and have a 2 hour break in the middle of the day where we can go for a walk, to the park, or take a nice nap together! My partner, CJ, is also a huge dog lover and will happily give your dog extra love and attention when he is home from work. You can see him pictured with Frankie the bulldog in my photos :) I have a private back garden that is mostly fenced - there is a small opening where the fence is broken, but your dog would never be outside unattended and the gap leads towards our flat's garages and not onto a road. My partner and I love cuddles, so your dogs are welcome to spend time on our furniture and we can easily crate them if needed or preferred! We live near a lovely, large gated park where we can take your dog to run and sniff.

About: I've had the chance to look after a wide range of dogs over the years, from tiny Daschund puppies to German Shephards to senior dogs, and I really love getting to know all the little quirks and behaviours that makes each of our dogs unique - I think people underestimate quite how much personality a dog can possess. My initial training came from looking after our own family dog, Ettie, a cavapoo who is now 7 and can be a bit of a handful! (we still love her though). I am local to the Surbiton/Kingston area and love to do dog walks as well as house sittings. Looking forwards to meeting your pups soon! I am a uni student (albeit with very short terms!) so mainly sit during the holidays - typically early December to mid January, May to April, and July to September. I will always put the dog's needs first, whether that be: playing with them and keeping them entertained, engaged and mentally stimulated with games like tug of war, hide and seek or fetch; or making sure they're comfortable and allowing them to rest and recuperate with me nearby, as I know my dog loves her naps just as much as her playtime!

About: I’ve always had dogs in my family and loved them growing up. Me and my partner have been dog sitting for over 4 years now and even though he no longer has the time I have no plans to stop! I have had many dogs in day care and have quite a few regulars that i board now. I’m enjoy learning about animal behaviour and dog training in my free time.I do not discriminate! I love all breeds and will happily accept any breed if we are a good fit for each other. Feel free to message me for dog walking services too. If you are living in Kingston I’d be happy to walk your dog regularly. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule and a lot of free time. I also live with my partner so there is always someone home. I live in a flat with a fairly big communal garden that can be used. I also live about 5 minutes from 2 local dog parks and I’m always happy to visit bushy park or Richmond park. I currently do not drive but I am not afraid of a really long walk! As I have been doing this for a while now, I’m fully equipped with bowls, treats, toys etc. I also have enough space for a crate if needed. Having such a flexible schedule means I’m able to spend a lot of time playing and interacting with the dogs that I look after. We are always interacting and getting to know each other. I think this is why the dogs I’ve had settle in so well and usually very quickly. I do have some experience with nervous dogs and I am always happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand. I’m currently working part time from home which is extremely flexible and doesn’t limit me at all. I am at home most days but I am happy to bring your dog with me wherever I go. There really is no better company than a dog or two! Even though I have mostly had bookings at my own home, I’m happy to house sit if that’s more comfortable for owners or for the dog.

About: Hi I am Olivia and this is Barry my two year old Labrador. He is a calm and friendly dog who gets on well with everyone and is always happy to have company. I have grown up with dogs my whole life, from Newfoundlands to French Bulldogs, so I am comfortable with all sizes and all temperaments. I work from home a few days a week which gives me plenty of time and flexibility for walks and drop ins. We live in a secure flat and I drive so travelling is not a problem. I have a real interest in puppy training and understanding dog behaviour, and my long term goal is to become a dog trainer. I am always learning and practising positive training methods with Barry and I enjoy helping pups feel confident and calm. I am a patient and caring person and I will always treat your dog with the same attention and respect I give my own. Barry is castrated and well mannered, so he is a great companion for dogs who like having a friend on their walks. I am looking forward to meeting your dog and helping make your day a little easier. I work from home on Monday Wednesday and Friday, and I am off on Saturdays and Sundays, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks and drop ins. I have parks close by which makes it easy to take dogs out multiple times a day. I can fit walks around your dogs usual routine and I am happy to work with whatever times suit you best. We live in a flat which is secure. We are on the second floor, but we have access to the shared garden which is gated and fenced off.
