“Flo had a wonderful time with Evie and was really well looked after. She had lots of walks and we feel confident about Evie’s ability to take great care of our mini Dachshund 😀”


“I can't say enough good things about Nia! She was absolutely amazing with my dog, Bear. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in good hands. Nia went above and beyond to make sure Bear felt comfortable and loved. What really impressed me was how well she kept in touch. I loved receiving videos and pictures of Bear enjoying his walks and spending time with her family. It was so reassuring to see him happy and well-cared for while we were away. I'm also incredibly grateful that Nia was able to take Bear on such short notice. It really took a load off my mind knowing he was with someone so caring and responsible. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter! Thanks again, Nia”


About: I’ve spent the past six years around dogs, caring for my family’s pets and helping out with dogsitting when needed. While the dogs haven’t lived full-time in my home, I’ve been closely involved in their daily care—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I’ve also looked after dogs in my own space before, including my sister’s dogs, who always go home happy and relaxed after staying with me. I work from home full-time, so your dog will have company throughout the day and plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. Whether it’s a quick walk or longer overnight stays, I do my best to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they would at home. I live in Mumbles, a very dog-friendly neighborhood, just a short walk from the beach. It’s a great area for relaxed strolls and getting fresh air, and there are plenty of green spaces and safe walking routes nearby. Whether your dog enjoys a quiet sniff around the block or more active outings, the environment here makes it easy to keep them happy and engaged. I work full-time from home, typically between 8 AM and 4 PM. This gives me plenty of flexibility for longer walks and playtime before and after work. During the workday, I’m still able to take breaks for shorter walks and regular bathroom breaks in my garden, so your dog will never be left for long without attention or care. When your dog stays with me, I treat them like part of the family. I keep their routine as close to normal as possible—feeding on schedule, regular bathroom breaks, walks, and playtime. Since I work from home full-time, your dog will have company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a garden where your dog can spend time outdoors and get fresh air, but I always supervise while they’re outside since the garden isn’t gated. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means extra cuddles, quiet time, or active play, to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during their stay.

About: Growing up with dogs has enriched my life in ways words can't capture. From my earliest memories, loyal tails and wet noses were my constant companions, shaping my understanding of unconditional love and unwavering friendship. My journey with dogs has been a tapestry woven with shared adventures, joyful moments, and even those comforting times when their presence was solace enough. Each tail wag, each playful romp, and each quiet cuddle has etched unforgettable memories into my heart. This profound connection has nurtured my passion for pet care. With every dog, I see a chance to reciprocate the boundless joy they've brought me over the years. Your furry companions aren't just pets; they're treasured members of your family, and it's a privilege for me to offer them the love, care, and attention they deserve. Allow me to extend my hands and heart to your beloved pets, ensuring their happiness, health, and well-being. Because to me, pet care isn't just a service; it's a lifelong bond built on trust, respect, and a mutual adoration for our four-legged friends. Every day, I make room for furry friends in my routine. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, I'm home, dedicated to providing top-notch pet care. Even when I'm away at work other days, I bring them along, ensuring their happiness and well-being. Your pets will always have a special place in my day, no matter what. Caring for pets is a joy that I extend both within my loving home and at the pet owner's residence. With a secure fenced yard and a household filled with four friendly canine companions, my services are tailored to create a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for your cherished pets. In My Home: Your pets are welcomed into a warm and pet-friendly environment that mirrors the comfort of their own home. With a spacious fenced yard, they have room to play, explore, and stretch their legs. Regular walks, interactive play sessions, and cozy napping spots are all part of the daily routine. Rest assured, your pets will receive undivided attention and loving care, as they become part of our extended family during their stay. In Your Home: I bring my dedicated care to your pets' familiar surroundings. This minimizes disruption and maintains their comfort while you're away. Visits include feeding, refreshing water, interactive playtime, and leisured strolls. Special attention is given to any specific needs, medical requirements, or routines your pets have. My goal is to ensure they feel secure and loved in their own home, providing you peace of mind. Whether in my home or yours, my commitment to exceptional pet care remains unwavering. Your pets will be treated as if they were my own, enjoying a tailored experience that considers their unique preferences, energy levels, and overall well-being. Their happiness and safety are at the forefront of every interaction, creating an environment where tails wag and hearts are content.

“Hunter had a lovely 5 days with Susana and her husband. First time leaving my pup so was worried to begin with but Susana took my worries away with photos and videos daily, with updates on how he was doing. Will definitely book with her again in the future.”


“This was the first time that I have ever left Reese with anyone and I was very apprehensive. Michelle soon put me at ease, as I was sent messages, photos and a video of Reese happily playing ball. I would definitely highly recommend Michelle to look after your pet, she is a lovely lady and respects your normal routines. Reese was not in a rush to leave and that's a true reflection on Michelle ability to look after your dog in every way. Thank you Michelle”

About: I have always had pets in the home, since I was a child which is why I am often taking the opportunity to pet sit for friends, go for walks or just have a game of fetch in the garden while ending the day with snuggles on the sofa. I currently have a cat called Izzy who is 17 years old. We spend most time together having a cuddle while she takes a nap. I offer doggy day-care, dog and cat drop ins and dog walking with pets of all ages and breeds. The more pets the better! I currently work 4 days a week so I am free on a regular basis to provide care for your pets or go for a walk before an evening shift. I have a big fenced garden, with a grass and patio area. I do own a cat who mostly stays upstairs as she is elderly so the upstairs of the house is gated off to allow her her own space.

“Would million % recommend Beth and partner to anyone. Our sandy stayed there from Friday to Monday. She went for long walks across the beach everyday and Beth sent pictures and videos of them. Amazing. Sandy was so comfortable with them and she is a shy dog. Will be using Beth again asap and sandy can’t wait haha”


About: I’ve worked with many of dogs in the past such as training and working with farm dogs (collies). I used to work on a farm which was a dog kennel and learned how to train and work and handle and take care the dogs. I own a cocker spaniel dog for 5 years and we trained her up ourselves. we also have another 2 year old sprocker very friendly, very well trained. We absolutely love our animals and would welcome and take care of yours too! I currently working part time at the moment so I’m hoping on the days off and the evenings I am more than willing to go out and spend my time with great dogs My garden is fully fenced off and safe and secure for all dogs and I’ve got one little energetic, kind and gentle puppy that will take great care of your dog

“Samuel was great, our puppy loved being with him and we are extremely happy that he was in a happy and safe environment. Thank you. Paul & Kobi”

“Cannot recommend Sandra enough. She took a real interest in our kitten from the outset. She is very friendly and has good knowledge of how to look after cats. Sandra made us feel at ease and confident that we were leaving our cat in safe hands. Sandra mad sure she understood feeding habits, play time and toileting. During our trip, Sandra provided regular updates about how our cat was doing and sent lots of photos. We would book Sandra again to look after our cat, she's excellent.”


About: I have taken care of dogs for 15 years. As well as having my own since the day I was born. I moved to London in 2023 and my two Jack Russells. I left with my parents. I am now currently back in Swansea South Wales and I miss my dogs dearly as they have stayed to live with my parents. I have a lot of passion for dogs, walking them, caring for them, treating them with masses of love and protection. As a result of not having a dog at the moment, I want to embark on a journey of helping other dog owners look after their dogs and take them for walks. I live on a beachfront with a lot of coastal paths and cycling tracks that go all away from my flat to Mumbles, which is 10 miles. I also visit my parents quite a lot, who live in the rural countryside in Carmarthenshire with 50 acres of fields surrounding their home. It would be a great honour to look after your dog. I currently work in the family business which gives me a lot of flexibility in my duties and looking after your dog. I oblige dilligently to all the owners requests of eating times, walking times and sleeping times. A view of the beach a stone throws away. You can see all the way down to Mumbles clearly. Many dogs that I have looked after love the view only on the second floor where they can see all types of dog walkers on the cycle track right by the beach on the beach and on the path below as well as day dreaming and snoozing in fine weather. I’m very clean and tidy and as a result of this makes my business very classy and professional.
