“Dolly and pixie had a wonderful weekend staying with Sophie, and were very relaxed when I came to collect them. Sophie is extremely kind and will happily book again.”

“Linsey was a fantastic host to our Vinnie. It was very appreciated that she hosted for a day prior to a weekly stay, so he could feel settled before (and we could too, first time ever leaving with a dog sitter!). We look forward to seeing you again soon!”

Andy H.

“Leanne cared for our dog beautifully and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”

Jo W.

“Barbara has been the best sitter we have ever found. Our very nervous boy who also has separation anxiety absolutely adores her. Barney is afraid of new people and other dogs but he has settled with Barbara like nobody else. Barbara has given him all the time and love he needed and looked after him so well he didn't want to leave and I'm sure he misses her. I cannot recommend Barbara highly enough”

Sue M.

“From the moment Donna opened her door I knew my old spaniel Lulu would be in good hands. A warm welcome, good communication throughout the stay and a happy dog on my return. Couldn’t ask for more! Many thanks.”

Duncan M.

“Allana looked after our labrador for the night. It was clear that she loves dogs, and that our dog was relaxed and comfortable in her company. We received updates through the day, and Allana was timely in picking up and dropping doggo back home. I would thoroughly recommend her, and won't hesitate to use her services again in future.”

Craig S.

“Jackie looked after my two spaniels I would 100% recommend. she’s easy to communicate with and the dogs said they had a great time :) thanks!”

J D.

“Thank you so much for looking after Merlot, he came home happy and very settled. He enjoyed all his walks and loved all the company he had. We will be very happy to let Merlot come and play and have a sleepover again! Many thanks Tia”

Susan W.

“I can't recommend Izzy enough! This was my first Rover experience and Izzy made it such an enjoyable one. She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and went above and beyond in caring for my puppy Ernie over the holidays. I will most definitely be using Izzy again in the future to dogsit - thanks so much for everything Izzy!”

Kate P.

“I've never used a dog sitting service before, so I was very anxious leaving my dog. I received so many updates during my time away, so I knew Grenda was in good hands. Highly recommended Jasmine to take care of your animals. Thank you so much!”

About: Love being around dogs, big or small! Have two dachshunds of my own and I love how all dogs have different characters! Playing with them and interacting I currently work 8-6. Thursdays Saturdays and Sundays off.. if during the week they would have to be ok with being left. Weekends I can be there most if not all day I give your pets my full attention, to whatever there needs require! I like to keep them entertained and burn off some of that energy they may have!

“I felt comfortable within minutes of meeting Kate. She was interested and caring towards my husky, Deco. Kate communicated with me effectively and I recieved updates with pictures throughout. Deco has been home 24hrs now, he's relaxed and chilled out. Don't hesitate to book.”

Dimple N.

“Will and Sofia are so wonderful with Sid, always returns peaceful and calm, would recommend in a heartbeat, thank you ❤️”

Danielle M.

“We have used Francisco consistently for the last six months and could not be happier! Our Australian Shepherd mix Ivy loves spending time with him and his dog and she is always so happy when we pick her up. Francisco is very friendly and responsive, and makes sure to send lots of updates and pictures of their adventures. He always goes above and beyond to make sure Ivy is taken care of! We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking around Angel!”

Noah W.

“Sarah is brilliant, she went above and beyond to make Indie feel welcomed and relaxed whilst she took care of her during the day and overnight in her home. Sarah was very attentive of Indie and sent lots of updates, which was very reassuring to see her playing and happy. Thanks so much!”

Tania P.

“Absolutely fantastic!!! Maisie & Cooper stayed with Trudy whilst we went for a night away in London and they were more than taken care of! Amazing long walks in the fields & forest and a lovely garden for them to roam until their hearts are content! Updated with pics regularly too! Thank you! Will be using Trudy often! 😅”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs throughout my life, from grooming, training family and friends dogs to just looking after them! I’m a dog lover so will look after your pup to a high standard! I’m currently a student with my days off being Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, although I am available early morning and evenings too so I can cater for your dogs needs depending on what they would like! I have worked in Cirencester for 3 years now, so am familiar with lovely walks from short, low energy walks to long and stimulating walks.

About: I grew up on a dairy farm with all kinds of animals and domestic pets and have had a lifelong love of dogs. I was trusted to look after pets for other people from an early age and regularly look after the dogs of friends, neighbours and work colleagues. I absolutely walking and my morning and evening walks are always the highlight of my day. I am currently working full time in a school five minutes from home, and walk my dog every morning before school and in the afternoon after school. I live in the beautiful Dorset countryside and have some wonderful varied woodland walks on my doorstep. At weekends I usually take dogs to the beach, always the highlight of the week! I am off work for half terms and school holidays and love being able to spend more time looking after pets. I have a fenced garden with room to play and run around and a super friendly cockapoo called Paddington who adores the company of other dogs. I stick to a routine of regular feeding times, two walks every day and regular play time and cuddle time! I will work to the routine of your dog to make them feel safe and welcomed.

About: As a soon to be veterinarian graduating this summer, I bring a unique combination of professional animal-care experience and a genuine lifelong love of animals. I have grown up around dogs, horses and cattle and have spent years caring for and working with animals in a variety of settings. My veterinary training has given me a strong understanding of canine health, behaviour and welfare, as well as the confidence to care for dogs with different needs. I am comfortable looking after puppies, senior dogs and dogs requiring medication or additional care, and I am trained to recognise when a dog may be unwell or needs veterinary attention. Most importantly, I am patient, caring and attentive to each individual dog's personality and routine. I understand that every dog is different, and I want them to feel safe, comfortable and happy while they are in my care. Whether that means an energetic walk, plenty of playtime, a quiet companion for an older dog, or simply sticking closely to their normal routine, I am happy to adapt to their needs. I would treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. As a soon to be veterinarian waiting to graduate, I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets. I am available for regular weekday and often weekend bookings, and I am happy to work around your dog's usual routine. I enjoy being active, so walks, playtime and outdoor adventures are something I genuinely look forward to. I can also provide plenty of company and attention at home, while making sure your dog's normal feeding, exercise and medication routines are maintained. I understand how important it is for owners to know their pet is in safe and reliable hands, so I am happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout their stay. Safety and welfare are always my priority. My veterinary training means I am confident recognising changes in a dog's behaviour or health and responding appropriately if something doesn't seem right. In your home, I will respect your space and keep your pet's usual routine as consistent as possible, including feeding, walks, medication and rest. I am happy to follow detailed instructions and make sure your dog feels comfortable and settled. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be daunting, so I aim to build trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, regular updates and plenty of care and attention. Every dog is treated as an individual, with their personality, needs and comfort taken into account.

“Nick was absolutely brilliant with Heidi, our German Shepherd, during her week-long stay. He clearly understood the breed and was patient, calm and really friendly with her. Heidi had only recently been spayed, so we needed someone who would be mindful and gentle with her, and Nick — along with his two lovely dogs — was exactly that. It did Heidi so much good to spend time around dogs who don’t share her anxiety, and she settled really well. Nick was a great communicator throughout, positive, reassuring, friendly and just a genuinely lovely person. Heidi thought he was brilliant, and it was fantastic for me knowing she was so well cared for. I would happily send her back tomorrow and will definitely use Nick for any future stays.”
