“First time using Darren to dog sit Jack over night. Very impressed and felt at ease with Darren and his family on greeting during and on collection. Received updates during the stay as well, highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Will be using Darren again. Thank you again!”

“Buster had an amazing stay with Chris and Caroline. They saved the day with last minute availability. As soon as I met them I knew I was comfortable leaving Buster with them for the week. They have a lovely house with a beautiful garden and took him on lengthy walks (when he agreed 🤣) I was completely at ease whilst I was away knowing he was being well looked after. I also got lots of updates. 100% would recommend ⭐️”

“I would highly recommend Sean Divvy totally enjoyed his stay and come home very relaxed.Sean was a very friendly man and made us feel relaxed about leaving our baby with him will definitely be going back to him .”

About: I am a genuine dog lover and a pet parent myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone reliable, kind and patient to look after your pets. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs day to day, including feeding routines, walks, toilet breaks, playtime, cuddles, basic grooming care and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I currently care for my own dogs, including a larger energetic dog and a smaller companion dog, so I am comfortable with different sizes, temperaments and routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality, likes, dislikes and boundaries, and I always try to follow the owner’s instructions closely. What sets me apart is that I treat pets like family. I am patient, gentle and attentive, and I will make sure your dog receives plenty of care, affection and reassurance while you are away. I can help with regular walks, feeding, playtime, companionship and keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I am also happy to provide updates, photos and messages so you feel reassured while your pet is with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I already care for my own dogs every day. I am used to regular feeding times, morning and evening walks, toilet breaks, playtime and keeping dogs settled throughout the day. I have a flexible routine, so I can plan walks, visits or care around each pet’s normal schedule. I understand that consistency is important for pets, so I always try to follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep their routine as familiar as possible. I care for pets with patience, attention and respect for their individual needs. Whether I am looking after a pet in my home or in the owner’s home, I make sure they feel safe, calm and comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medication if required, toilet routines, sleeping arrangements and any house rules. I keep pets supervised, avoid unsafe situations, and take care when opening doors, walking near roads or introducing them to unfamiliar places. In my home, pets will be treated like family in a clean, caring and comfortable environment. I also understand that some pets may feel nervous when away from their owners, so I give them time, reassurance and gentle attention. I am happy to send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident that their pet is safe and well cared for.
“Yevgeniia took great care of Toby and was supportive with his needs and made him feel relaxed and settled whilst we were at work. With a lot of knowledge of dog behaviours, I would feel confident in Toby staying again and would recommend. Thank you for your support :)”

“Aiva and her family are amazing with dogs. They showed my two boys so much love, affection and patience. I highly recommend Aiva to anyone that wants to be able to leave their dogs in a happy, loving home when going away. 😊”

“Daynah had my dog Emmy to stay for one night at short notice when our plans changed suddenly. She was very communicative ahead of Emmy’s arrival and thoughtful about her needs. Emmy is a rescue dog and can be nervous and Daynah responded really well to this and did her best to put Emmy at ease. She clearly loves animals and cares deeply about the welfare of the dogs she looks after.”


“Billy was a great host for our two dogs. He sent detailed updates with photo's throughout our time away and even a video of him teaching one of the dogs a trick. Long walks each day for both dogs meant they returned to us happy but tired 🙂”
“Romina was amazing! If I could put more than 5 stars I would. Romina was so flexible with me with the dates and times as I was due to move and needed someone to look after my German Shepherd. My dog is nervous due to being a rescue and usually takes a while to warm up to someone but as soon as Romina welcomed us into their home, it was like she had been there already! Drop off was a smooth process although my dog knew I was leaving this time so got a bit anxious, but within 30mins I got a message and photo showing me how at ease and happy she was. Romina kept me updated with messages and photos during the duration which kept my mind at ease. Could not have wished for a better dog sitter for my Luna! All positives so thank you Romina!”

About: I am from the north east of England where I live in a small town surrounded by countryside (before spending 16 years in London and moving to Kent in 2020). I love animals, in particular dogs. From when I was born I grew up around cats and dogs we had in the family, rabbits too and other animals on my aunties farm horses, cows, sheep and chickens. My auntie was also a dog trainer and attended crufts. I work in Mental Health and animals are a huge part of the family. They also help to reduce any stress, live in the moment and make us smile. I also have a pet first aid qualification. I am mainly available Friday (8am) to Sunday (10pm) for day care and/or over night. Depending on the time of the year and my work I may be available for other days/longer stays. My home is firstly my dogs home. He is allowed on the sofa and has access to a secure garden. There are no dangerous wires or objects which could cause injury.
“Claire was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Very responsive and she sent constant updates and pictures. Plus she has adorable children and 2 cute dogs. Autumn our Jack Russell had a wonderful time. Thank you Claire!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have a Golden Retriever called Leo, so I have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life, from puppies and adolescent dogs to senior dogs. Through attending training classes with Leo, I’ve learned positive training techniques and am happy to continue any training or routines you’re already working on with your dog. I understand that every dog is different and will always follow their individual needs, routines, and preferences. Most importantly, I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while in my care. I work from home, so I'm around during the day and can be flexible to fit around your dog's routine. I have a garden and walk my Golden Retriever, Leo, in the morning, on my lunch break, and again in the evening. Whether your dog enjoys lots of exercise or prefers a quieter pace, I'm happy to work around their needs. We have a secure garden, with a fence. A baby gate, a crate too, so dogs can be separated to make sure they get enough sleep throughout the day. We have a friendly dog called Leo, who knows when to play and when to settle.
“Felt so at ease with my Franco staying with Chelsie. Got regular updates and I made an error whilst booking and she was so accommodating. Will definitely be rebooking with you Chelsie. Thanks so much! X”

“Misty looked after our jack russell, Lulu, for two weeks when we were away. Lulu has come home calm, happy and extremely well cared for. Misty kept in touch the whole time we were away and I was reassured that Lulu was in safe hands. Thanks so much to Misty and her family for taking such great care of our dog. 🙂”

“Emily was just so friendly, kind and flexible, with such short notice she had Tilly overnight. Emily was so gentle with Tilly. Emily gave me updates and all was well. When I picked Tilly up she was all ready to go and I think Emily waa a little sad to see her go, we will definitely be using Emily again. Tilly certainly had a fab time.”

Romina was absolutely brilliant with Badger. She was communicative and reliable and kept us updated with photos and messages every day while we were away. Badger seems to have had a great time with his new friend Buddy and has come home relaxed and happy! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Romina for anyone looking for a dog sitter.
