About: Daily routine care for my pet rabbit and experience with cat sitting and occasional dog sitting for friends and family. I have also had various small pets previously. I’ve recently left education and am now working part-time with minimal commitments through the week so I am available for both long and short stays! I love animals and give them my full attention and respect, lots of hugs and cuddles! I’m quite active and hyper aware of my surroundings meaning that I’m always looking out for anything that would put me or the pets in harms way.

About: I have over 6 years’ experience living with and caring for dogs in a family home and regularly look after my parents’ dog in my own home. I’ve also helped care for pets for family and friends, including feeding, walks, playtime and keeping to their usual routines. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and understand that every pet is different. My home is already well set up for pets and I know how important it is for owners to feel comfortable knowing their pet is safe, happy and well looked after while they’re away. I am mostly available for boarding and sitting over the weekend but my partner also works from home and has flexible working arrangements during the week and would be able to look after a pet from our home where needed or come and visit your pet to let them out for loo breaks and take them for walks. My partner and I dog sit frequently at my own home so the house is safe and well equipped for dog/pet sitting. There is nothing particularly fancy I would be concerned about a pet damaging we have been used to all kinds of messes. The house is locked, there is plenty of clear floor space and we have a sizable fully fenced off garden that a dog can be let outside freely without need for close monitoring. I am confident dog sitting in other homes also, being responsive to any mess, leaving the home in good condition and making sure the owners dog or cat is looked after and feels relaxed.

Danielli is an excellent car sitter , she was very flexible with the initial meting to ensure I and my cat are both comfortable. She is always on time and sends really good updates, she even hoovered around the litter which was very thoughtful. Thank you!

Clare was very friendly and helpful. She visited my cat Harley twice a day and kept me informed of how she was doing by messaging and photos. Everything was tidy on my return with all empty food cans washed and put in the bin. The litter tray was clean and dirty litter put in the bin provided. I would definitely recommend Clare and use her again in the future.

I can’t recommend Katie highly enough. Going away and leaving Rafa has always caused me great anxiety . Having the daily updates and photos and knowing that Rafa was being looked after so well has been brilliant. I will have no hesitation in booking Katie again.

Lindsay has been an absolute gem to find in caring for our elderly cat.Our cat has throughly enjoyed having Lindsay caring for her and as the usual takes a while to warm up to new people in general. However, my cat warmed very quickly to Lindsay even making us look like complete frauds with how quick 😆. Lindsay, from the start was professional minded wanting to come a meet and greet our cat and us the owners. Asking general habits and routine and this was great as it was good to know who was looking after her whilst we traveled. With us being away for 10 days, we needed someone who would understand our old lady cat and felt that when talking with Lindsay around her own experiences she was a great match. During the time we were away, Lindsay kept in great contact and communicated well around our cats time with her and each time was lovely to see and know she was well cared for. Thank you Lindsay, we will certainly be having your care in the future for Puss Puss she absolute loved you caring for her 😊

About: I have looked after dogs as well as cats since I was around 9 years old, whether it was my own or a neighbours or friends. I am a very playful and energetic person so I am always looking for a dog to encourage to have fun and get some exercise and run around with. I have looked after 40+kg dogs, which are xl bully crossbreeds however owner has given me permission to post them I am currently on maternity leave so my availability is pretty much always open however I do prefer a 2 day heads up however if a last minute booking is needed and im availabile then im happy to do it. I do not currently own any pets in my home as its not possible due to being in a flat, but safety of any animal is so important to me. When I had my pets I ensured we had a 12ft fence put in place due to other cats and dogs being in the neighbourhood. I am very strong and aware of my surroundings so I am always looking for danger or something that could become dangerous to ensure I can move us away from the situation.

About: I have looked after animals for years and I also have a Level 3 Animal Care Qualification. Im a pet lover with four fur babies of my own, I can offer personalised dog/cat sitting and walking services, specialising in tailoring walks to match your pet's needs and preferences. Ensuring a unique and attentive experience for your fur babies. Im also fully insured to look after your pets! I work full-time but WFH, with weekends off so I am quite flexible. Full-time work doesnt affect my ability to care for them on a weekday. On a weekday I have a schedule that I follow which is a 6-7 am walk for an hour and another hour walk after work in the afternoon between 5-7 pm. I am unable to look after pets at my place therefore looking after them at owners home is preferable. I will make sure to give lots of playtime, cuddles and attention when needed but also if pet needs space then thats also okay with me 💓

About: I’ve always dreamt of owning a dog but while that dream awaits I have occupied myself with family and friend’s dogs. From a young age I’ve always been interested in learning about animals I would read every animal book i saw, watch all the tv shows on national geographic and the kid channels from shows like Deadly 60 to Crickey it’s the Irwins. I always had different pets from tadpoles and guinea pigs to rabbits and birds and I had the best experience looking after my cat Benji but dog walks are my favourite as I enjoy getting active with them by running and chasing or playing fetch or tug. Prices can be adapted just drop a message. Payment can be rearranged via Paypal or Cash in hand. I’m available daily for house visits and dog walks. Happy to do one night house sits but two plus nights preferred if outside service area. I will follow rules and steps provided to ensure the safety of your pet and if needed avoid them from unsafe environments and remove them from unsafe spaces

Yasmin cared for our much loved cat Luna beautifully when we enjoyed a few days away recently, so much so she barely batted an eyelid on our return as she was very relaxed, unstressed, and clearly happy! Not only did Yasmin pop in and spend a bit of time with Luna before our trip she also kindly suggested spending a bit of extra time with Luna when feeding her (when timing allowed), for some extra company. Just being there in the background whilst Luna did her own thing, which was very much appreciated. Yasmin clearly understands cats well, their needs and also their personalities. There was a lot of love in the house we felt which made our trip easeful knowing she was being so well looked after and the daily photo updates were adorable! I cannot recommend Yasmin highly enough. Will book again and again for sure. Thank you Yasmin 😻

We have just come back from a 2 week holiday made all the better by knowing that our cat was being looked after by Katie. She made sure that all Pepper's basic needs were attended to but also that there was lots of play and cuddles. We will be booking her again.
