“My dog was nervous after leaving our home and his brother Charlie behind and moving with me following a divorce. He was weary of Chelsea on her own in the house at first, but she soon gained his trust by spending extra time with him and he was out on his walk with her in no time! Thank you Chelsea for persisting, for being so kind and for taking extra time to build Kenzos trust. You're part of the pack now! And we feel very lucky to have found somebody as kind, caring and great with animals as Chelsea is 😊”
“I needed someone to look after my Westie at the last minute and Cara was great at accommodating me. He loved his time with Cara, playing lots and going on nice walks which really helped me feel less stressed, knowing he was happy. He will definitely be spending more time with Cara when I'm busy.”
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.
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, so being around them and taking care of them has always come naturally to me. From feeding and walking to just giving them attention, I'm really comfortable handling their day-to-day needs and making sure they're happy and getting all the love they deserve! I now live with my partner Liam, who also grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, from Rottweilers to Jack Russells, so we're both very used to having them around. We're massive dog lovers and really enjoy spending time with them, whether its going for walks or just keeping them company and making them feel at home! Both me and Liam work remotely from home so we are around to feed, walk and take care of your dog all throughout the day! On the weekends we enjoy being active and going for walks around the neighbourhood, we would love to be able to bring a dog along with us! We are currently living in a flat, however we have a park right across the road with an enclosed, fenced dog section where they can be let off the leash and safely play in the open :)
“Dani came over the weekend to walk my dog Billy, feed him and spend some time with him whilst I was away. It was my first time using the app as well, so I was unsure of how things worked. She was lovely, always happy to explain next steps and answered promptly to all my questions. She was very reassuring, made me comfortable to contact at any time if needed and was very flexible to mine and Billy's needs. Billy absolutely loved her and did not want her to leave. He was a very happy and healthy boy when I got home and Dani made the process as anxiety-free as possible. I will definitely book Dani again because it was such a good experience and would recommend her to anyone with a fury baby 😊”

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

About: I've had dogs in my family ever since I was a kid, so I like to think of pets as another member of the family. I'm here for whatever needs your pet may have like walking, playing, or simply just companionship. I'm currently unemployed, so I'm mostly available during the weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. My schedule is very flexible and I'm able to adjust to different time frames. I have a fenced yard and ample indoor space for pets to hang out in. I can also offer bathing if required by the owner, and feed as many times as needed throughout the day.

Through Stride by Side, I also work with many reactive, anxious and nervous dogs, helping them feel more comfortable in the world around them and tailoring walks to suit each individual dog’s needs.
