“Thank you Kiera for looking after our cat while we were away for the weekend, he’s happily fed, had some fuss & been kept safe in his own home. I would highly recommend Keira.”


About: Hi, I’m Pranet. I really love spending time with dogs and have experience in taking them for walks and visiting them. I take great care of them on walks ensuring their safety and the freedom to explore the world. I have taken big dogs and small dogs on walks and my clients were pleased with my service for both of them. I am very flexible with time as I am working through an agency so I can choose which date and time I go to work. I am willing to take dogs on a walk on short notice and am very flexible with time and communicate my availability clearly. I have some experience with dogs and am enthusiastic about working with them, and learning more about their behaviour and personalities. I respect the owner's concern about their dog's habits and what I should do to protect them which is why I have established trust with the owner and their pets.

About: Cats and dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I absolutely love spending time with the furries. I understand the care and attention these beautiful creatures need, and am the go-to sitter for friends and family :) Currently I have a 7 year old cat that has been with me since he was 8 weeks old, and looking after pets for more than 10 years, from cats and dogs to hamsters, rabbits and snakes. I've volunteered for cats and dogs of all ages and temperaments, and take a keen interest in animal behaviour and care, gaining an animal health and welfare diploma. I know it can be tough to leave your pets while away, so I’m happy to send photos and updates to also reassure you! No matter the age or personality, it would be a privilege to look after your pets :) DBS checked and fully insured I have a fairly flexible work schedule, so I have good availability for visits across 7 days of the week. Pop me a message a couple of days in advance ! I’m trustworthy and respectful of pet owners specifications for care, and their property. I treat every pet with the compassion and care that they deserve.

“Kate was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of my cat while I was on holiday. It was so reassuring to know my pet was in such good hands. Communication was easy—Kate was always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


About: ABOUT ME I have loads of experience with dogs including nervous dogs. I used to take emergency fosters from the local dogs home in Spain. I'm recently returned (for good) to Swansea for family reasons and I'm looking to restart my dog sitting here. I've got experience of nervous dogs, large breeds, energetic dogs and those with special diets and medical needs. I just get dogs on a visceral level (more than humans). I've got a large completely walled in garden and I'm close to the canal path for lovely walks. Loads of parking out the front of my place for drop offs and collections. While you are off enjoying yourself your dog will be well cared for in a stress free environment. MESSAGES I aim to answer messages as timely as possible. However, sometimes I'm out walking or doing other dog related things like playing ball. Don't worry I will respond. If you are messaging late in the evening you can expect me to answer in the morning. Rover doesn't permit us to exchange phone numbers untill a booking has been made so I won't be able to see your phone number if you send it before then. WHAT CAN I OFFER? Apart from a lovable and safe environment PRE RESERVATION General pre reservation enquiries I'm happy to message with you on Rover and/or do a 15 minute video or phone call We can have a chat about your dog and your needs. I am happy to show you my home and garden too via our video call. AFTER YOU ARE HAPPY AND WISH TO RESERVE MEET &GREET If you need a meet and greet in person:- I'm happy to arrange to visit you and your dog in your home (if you are within a 15 mile radius) Or you can arrange to visit me at my home. PAYMENT This is made through the app and protected by Rover. I can not see your bank or card details and your money is protected by Rover's policies and protections. I am and writer/publisher and work from home. My children are adults and have left to do their own thing. I'm active and walk everyday. My home has a large garden which is completely walled and secure. Your pooch is completely safe here to run about in and out of the home with toys and lots of company and stimulation. We go for walks and outings which are suitable for the age, health and breed of the dog.

“Great experience, fantastic communication and letting us know about the wellbeing of our dogs. Definitely recommend, it was a pleasure having her look after our dogs and we will definitely book again thank you so much”


“Katie was brilliant with our two boys while we were away. Followed the instructions and gave them extra attention! Loved the pup dates and pictures of them too. Would highly recommend 😊”


About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was little. From walking my neighbours senior dogs to house sitting my friends puppies. I love going on long walks and making sure tails are wagging all the time!! I am currently a uni student at Swansea University so I am very flexible. Whenever you need me i’m there!! Whether you have work during the day or just need an evening off :) On walks I will make sure to keep your pup on a leash unless safe to do so! I have a lot of difficult situations involving other dogs during walks so I will try my best to avoid those and if not resolve them. My house includes a small fenced backyard and is safe for any size companion if needed for boarding.

“Ellie and her partner were fantastic with duke! Provided lots of updates and had no issues whatsoever. Would 10000% recommend!!”


About: Dogs have always been in my life. My best friend Jake devastatingly passed away last year who with me and my dad had raised since a pup as a rescue Stafie. This bereavement has made me treasure dogs and all animals alike much more, they rely on us and give their unconditional love and I want to give back and make their lives filled with fun and enjoyment. I have experience with all sorts of dogs, from different breeds such as Staffies and Labrador, from young energetic balls of energy to the seniors who love and deserve to be pampered in their old age. I'm currently a final year animation student on my summer holidays and looking to look after our furry friends. My schedule is very flexible until September after this I will update my schedule to reflect this as soon as I know my class dates. For now however I am free every week day. I have a large front garden, and a back garden (not fenced), however lots of large fields, woodland and trails in my local area. I would care for your dog as my own and treat them as the best, they would be well fed and played with lots. I would be honoured to build a relationship with them, a relationship built on trust and loyalty, values that I have been brought up with and built upon with my own dog who is sadly no longer with us.

“We communicated via Whatsapp which was so much easier and Kylie kept us updated on our boy. She obviously loves animals and Dennis was happy to have her drop in! Thank you.”


About: Dogs truly are mans best friend, there are certainly mine since losing my beloved Husky last year, I have for the past 8 months been volunteering with the Cinnamon trust and what an enjoyable experience it has been Before my husky I had an old English sheep dog I have vast experience with Dogs, big or small they will be cared for correctly by me and or my brother Fintan, who is staying with me for a few months, Like me my brother is a dog lover & has also been looking after dogs & other animals throughout his life I work 8am - 5pm Monday to Friday, however my brother Fintan who is staying with me works from home, so week day care is no problem I have a fenced in large rear garden & a front garden I live in a large 3 bedroomed house in Cockett SA2 As I drive an estate car taking dogs for walk is no issue

“Christopher was amazing. Our puppy was super chilled and happy … and Christopher even took the initiative to feed him when he got hungry. We will definitely be getting him over again to look after our pup! Thank you Christopher!”


About: In my family I have always grown up surrounded by dogs and being animal lovers. My friends in Swansea have always trusted me to look after their pets while they are away I am unemployed at the moment, job hunting , so I am more than happy to offer full time services while my professional situation does not change In my place I made the adjustments to make the pet in the most comfortable way. I do care and practice empathy putting myself in their paws 🐾 so once exercising, feeding and cleaning is done I do invest in quality time shared to make then feel companied and well attended while their loved owners are absent

About: I work in a family run pet shop I have lots of experience with all breads I have owned a number of dogs I look forward to meeting you and you beloved dogs Hi i am available to walk dogs before and after work I am able to have them over weekend if they could cone to work with me I would treat your home with the upmost respect and follow your request and instructions that you leave and and special requests I am willing to tidy and walk if required

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and taken every opportunity to look after pets from a very young age- cats, dogs, horses, rats, hamsters, you name it. At 19, I brought home my first puppy, Ellie the mini dachshund, who quickly became my world. She is an absolute dream. I have sadly had to leave her in the loving care of my parents so I could begin my studies in Swansea. I miss her so much and would absolutely love to help look after other peoples pets while I’m here, especially during the summer as my availability is quite flexible. I’m a bubbly and sociable individual who loves to keep fit and healthy- dog walking would be a great excuse to get me out of the house even more! Happy to discuss rates 😁 I like early nights and early mornings. I’m currently working very flexible hours in a pharmacy so have plenty of time for doggy day care! I have finished uni for the year (woohoo!), except for a few exams in May, so I’m sure we will be able to find a good time for both of us. I would prefer to care for pets in their owners home as I know they will be more comfortable in a known environment. I would love to hear about how you care for your pet and replicate this as I know dogs can like their routines, ie crating them if necessary, taking them out regularly, meals at specific times etc. and will be very respectful of your property. I cannot offer care in my own home an I live in a small studio flat with no garden so this is unfortunately unsuitable for boarding. This is definitely not a permanent situation so I will update this as soon as anything changes!

“Jessica what can I say, you were an absolute star. Missy loves you, you were consistent, professional and most of all caring at all times. I will be re booking you again for sure. Thank you for being available last minute aswell. X”


“Arianna is the most amazing cat sitter I use her regularly and my boys absolutely love her! She goes above and beyond and treats your pets like her own! She’s amazing and I couldn’t recommend anymore! She also constantly keeps you updated with how they are”


About: I have a lot of experience in taking care of dogs, cats and rabbits. My family owns greyhounds and 2 rabbits. I often house sit for friends and family so have dogs and cats. I've had experience looking after a range of dogs from big breeds like labradors, collies and greyhounds to smaller dogs like cokapoos, spaniels and terriers. I'm a Student at Swansea University and so I'll have plenty of time in-between lectures to look after your animals! I am really flexible and often free during the middle of the day when you might be at work. I offer a lot of care and attention to the animals and am attentive to their needs. I understand that letting someone look after your pet is a big thing and therefore promise to be reliable and give updates on how they are getting on!

About: If you’re looking at this profile, then I guess you have a busy life, your time is limited then let me help because I have some spare time I can give you. I am a single dad of two daughters,I grew up with dogs (German Shepard’s, Poodles, Springer Spaniels, Golden Retrievers and Ridgebacks), I walk my super friendly 3 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback everyday in the park and on the beach she loves to run and play. I’m looking to walk dogs during the day and I am happy for them to stay with me all day if needed. My only commitment is I do have to do a school run in the morning 8-9 and 2.40-3.20 which the dog could come with me and wait in the van with me for my daughters to arrive. I can cover Monday to Thursday and some Fridays. I work from home on a flexible freelance basis (mostly in the evenings) and I’m looking to just walk or look after 1 or 2 dogs to give you the time that you don’t have. I prefer medium and big dogs

Rosa O.
“Rosa looked after our 2 cats Guggi and Bibi for nearly 2 months. She was professional, extremely thoughtful and caring as she would often update us with videos, pictures and even went out of her way to buy more cat food or toys for them. I would highly recommend Rosa and will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you!”


Kate W.

“Kate was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of my cat while I was on holiday. It was so reassuring to know my pet was in such good hands. Communication was easy—Kate was always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


Nia J.
“Nia looked after my 2 babies (Shih Tsu's) when I went on holiday for a week. She is a great communicator and sent me photos and updates of them during this time which was lovely! They loved being with Nia and were very attached to her upon my return. Nia is a reliable and trustworthy person and I would highly recommend Nia to care for your pets.”


Danielle J.

“Great experience, fantastic communication and letting us know about the wellbeing of our dogs. Definitely recommend, it was a pleasure having her look after our dogs and we will definitely book again thank you so much”


Katie R.

“Katie was brilliant with our two boys while we were away. Followed the instructions and gave them extra attention! Loved the pup dates and pictures of them too. Would highly recommend 😊”


Maria S.
“She was absolutely amazing looking after my spaniel. No problems at all, she was a lovely girl and very hands on. I definitely will ask her back again, could not recommend someone better than her. I think my spaniel loved her too!”


Ellie D.

“Ellie and her partner were fantastic with duke! Provided lots of updates and had no issues whatsoever. Would 10000% recommend!!”


Jon F.
“Jon is a bit shy around two leg'ed animals but when it comes to four leg'ed ones he comes out of his shell and becomes really talkative and devoted. He really likes dogs but isn't able to have his own at the moment so this is potentially his ideal solution. When not doing this he will be caring for members of his family or doing college / university work. He is kind, attentive and very reliable.”


Kylie J.

“We communicated via Whatsapp which was so much easier and Kylie kept us updated on our boy. She obviously loves animals and Dennis was happy to have her drop in! Thank you.”


Kieren G.
“Kieren loves animals, especially dogs, and they love him too. He has always had a dog until last year when his best friend sadly passed away. Due to the this huge loss, he has not yet been able to welcome a new dog into his home, but has supported the Cinnamon Trust, walking an almost retired guide dog, whose owner is no longer able to take him out as much as he needs. As Kieren doesn't currently have his own dog, he would be ideal to look after anyone else's dog, regardless of the dog's temperament/ability to get on with other dogs. He is strong, healthy and knows all the best dog walking areas in Swansea. Kieren is calm, gentle and friendly which are great qualities to put any dog at ease. He has plenty of time and love to give a dog, and we hope that this will help heal his broken heart so he can eventually get his own dog again.”


Christopher M.

“Christopher was amazing. Our puppy was super chilled and happy … and Christopher even took the initiative to feed him when he got hungry. We will definitely be getting him over again to look after our pup! Thank you Christopher!”


Sandra Maria G.
“As a dog trainer and professional dog sitter, I highly recommend Sandra’s services. I first met Sandra when I needed help with a female dog that had serious socialisation issues. She was in heat, so I couldn’t keep her with the rest of the dogs. To cut a long story short, I was truly impressed by the care Sandra provided. Since then, she has earned my complete trust when it comes to dog care. It was a challenging task, and she handled it brilliantly! Sandra has a natural gift with dogs, and I have no doubt she will go far. I’m delighted that she has started her own business because we need more people like her in this field.
