“Elizabeth has been amazing with our puppy, Murphy. She has been extremely attentive and caring with him and always provides us with regular updates and photos. Would definitely recommend!!”


About: I had a family dog since I was a teenager for 12 years and have looked after them in my spare time ever since. Now in my thirties, I've gained a lot of experience with dogs of many different ages, breeds and temperaments. I'm currently available pretty much whenever you need, for whatever you need. Whether it be just a few hours or a few days, I'm happy to help!I I live on a quiet, dog friendly cut-de-sac with lots of parks nearby. And I have a fenced garden, with plenty of space for your pup to run around and play.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. Currently a mum to a silver lab. I love walking, playing with her and spending time with her. I often look after our friends dog and I’d love to care for more I’m currently working part time, for myself at home and have available hours to attend to any pets needs. I like to walk. I have a silver lab who can either stay home or go to the office with my partner depending on needs. I have a fenced large garden. I have a silver lab who can keep your fur baby company if needed. I can contain the dog to downstairs with baby gates or the dog can free roam.
“Nicola was great with our cats - she regularly sent us updates and when we came home our cats looked healthy and well looked after. Would book with her again! She’s also very lovely to deal with and made the whole process very easy.”

“My pet care wasn't standard, as it involved cats and my rats. This sitter overcame her own fear of rodents and took wonderful care of them. The animals weren't stressed, and the sitter respected the cats' avoidance of contact. Interestingly, the rats were eager to play, which is a good sign, as they're usually wary. Cats and dogs can easily be bribed with treats, but rodents are impossible, and for me, that confirms that I made a good choice in sitter.”

“Thanks again to Kayleigh for looking after Puss while I’ve been away. Since Puss got poorly, I’ve been more nervous about leaving her, but Kayleigh keeps me updated and sends amazing pictures. Puss lives playing with her and seems so relaxed. Thanks for helping me to enjoy my break. 🥰”

“This is the second time I’ve booked with Sarah to look after my cat while I’ve been away, and I will continue to do so in the future. Sarah is very thorough in going through what Ziva needed while I was away, sent regular updates and photos, and gave Ziva lots of attention and care while I was away. I really recommend Sarah as a cat sitter”

About: At Ruby’s Retreat, your dog will join a calm, loving home with my friendly Boxer-Staffie, Ruby. She’s always enthusiastic at first but soon settles. I have years of experience caring for friends’ and family dogs. Expect playtime, cuddles, and peaceful walks in nearby fields, plus a secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor fun. I run my own sign-making business from home, so I’m here most of the day and can offer your dog plenty of attention and company. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to adapt to your dog’s routine. I do drive but I don’t have a car. However, I’m within walking distance of parks and open green spaces for varied daily exercise and fun. I regularly care for dogs belonging to friends and family, including Ruby’s two brothers, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and a Labrador. Whether it’s for a weekend or a few weeks, I treat every dog like one of my own—providing a consistent routine, lots of affection, walks, playtime, and a calm, comfortable home environment. I take time to learn each dog’s personality and needs so they feel safe, happy, and settled.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life, with experience caring for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. Growing up with Labradors and greyhounds, and later owning my own Labrador, gave me a strong foundation in understanding dogs’ physical and emotional needs. I have extensive hands on experience with greyhounds through my family dad and his partner, which she is a greyhound trainer, as well as through kennel work caring for racing greyhounds. This background has taught me calm, confident handling and an appreciation for structure, routine, and safety. I have also run a dog walking business, working with dogs of all sizes and breeds. Alongside this experience, I offer a safe, secure fenced garden and a reliable, attentive approach to ensure every dog in my care feels secure, exercised, and well looked after. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life and something I am deeply passionate about. I have relaunched my dog walking business, which allows me to dedicate my days to caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds. Your dog will be in safe hands, joining me on walks that are not only fun and engaging but also tailored to their individual needs. I have a secure, fenced garden that provides a safe and spacious area for dogs to run, play, and enjoy themselves. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and the enclosed space ensures they can explore and exercise freely in a safe environment.
About: Hello! I love animals of all types, breeds and sizes! I work in education and so have lots of holidays and time that I would be able to dedicate to your much loved pets. I am very friendly and have an approachable loving disposition which will make your pets feel right at home. I am close to many great walking routes, big open fields and even woods for long walks and exercise. Please don’t hesitate to contact! I have short working days and so can attend to the pets before work and I am back early enough for them not to be alone for an extended period of time either. Gated back garden leading into a gated alley which is very secure. Lots of the neighbours are friends and also have pets so take extra care in making sure the area is safe for pets to be.
About: I have have been around dogs since I was born, I bought my own dog when I was 18, she is 13 now and lives with my parents. I have dog walked for family and friends and taken care of friends dogs while they are away. I work 8 - 4 Mon - Fri so have time for dog walking in the evening and weekends. This also means I am available for boarding and doggy day care. I work from home one day a week so only really available for boarding over a weekend. We have a fully fenced in out door space. We have plenty of room inside for crates if required. We live on a quiet road but would never leave the dog unattended if the front door was every open. We are also right near Stamford park which is a great spot for a local walk. I live with my Fiance Harry. I will take care of the dogs but he is happy to provide cuddles and join in with play time.
“Kirsten did a great job of looking after our two cats while we were on holiday! She came to meet the cats before hand, gave us daily updates with with pictures and made sure they had everything they needed. We came home to two happy cats! We would definitely recommend her. Thanks Kirsten ?”

About: I worked at a dog groomers in the past and also a doggy day care. I like dogs more than most people, will travel to your home but I have a child so your dogs would have to be good with children if they are to come and stay over at our home. She loves dogs just as much as I do if not more! I’ve always had dogs of my own so and often look after friends and family dogs and cats if they ever go away. I am very flexible and almost always at home so pretty much always available to look after your beautiful fur babies :) cats are also welcome. Thank you very much for taking the time to read my profile. I appreciate it.
About: I've always loved animals, especially dogs and cats. 3 years ago I finally got my own dog and i've been looking after her on my own ever since, and loved every minute of it! I love walking with dogs and how happy they are to see you. I am experienced in taking care of large and small dogs as well as dogs with difficult temperatments. I currently work full-time from home. I work flexibly monday to friday so I am available for walks and visits on week days, evenings and weekends. I can drive and have a car so i'm able to travel easily to your home to look after your pet as well as driving them to a park or open space if you don't have one close by.
About: I’m a retired professional who loves dogs and cats. I have had two dogs who both lived to old age: firstly Bertie the beagle (he was a typical beagle: headstrong and food motivated), then Skye the collie (nervous of strangers and dog reactive), and now I regularly look after Lottie the rescue beagle (also reactive to some dogs). I have experience walking and looking after other rescue dogs, including the Romanian and Bulgarian rescues and former street dogs my daughter fosters. Since retiring, I plan to stay as active as possible so I'd love to have doggy companions to come with me on walks in the local area, including the beautiful Daisy Nook country park which is a short walk away. I took up running a few years ago and the dogs I care for love to run alongside me with my partner and her dog. Maybe yours would too. If your dog is lonely at home all day while you work and needs a visit, or you need boarding while you are away on holiday, I can offer long walks, plenty of play and stimulation, and a quiet and peaceful home to relax in with a secure, high-fenced garden. I don't have lots of people dropping in, and there are no children or other pets so your dog will always have my full attention. I look forward to meeting you and your dogs and giving them the care, company and exercise they need.
About: I’m offering services because I genuinely love spending time with dogs and being outdoors. There’s nothing better than seeing a happy, tail-wagging pup enjoying fresh air and exercise. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I have 23 years of experience with dogs of many breeds. I take great care of animals and treat them like they are my own. I am currently working full time during the week in the NHS but I have flexibility for evenings and weekends. I am open to work around your schedule when needed. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I focus on keeping their normal routine exactly the same. Being in their familiar environment helps reduce stress, so I follow feeding , walking and general care instructions carefully. I respect the home by keeping everything tidy, secure, and exactly as I found it. My goal in both settings is the same: to provide loving, attentive care so your pet feels safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away.

Thanks again to Kayleigh for looking after Puss while I’ve been away. Since Puss got poorly, I’ve been more nervous about leaving her, but Kayleigh keeps me updated and sends amazing pictures. Puss lives playing with her and seems so relaxed. Thanks for helping me to enjoy my break. 🥰

Monina and Jordan have been amazing with Gino, Stan and Chester! 🐾 They were always super reliable and so sweet with the dogs, and even managed to help out when I had last-minute changes. Also, Gino’s training came on leaps and bounds after being with Jordan. We even got photos of the boys enjoying their walks, which we really appreciated. It’s such a relief knowing the boys were in such good hands — thank you both for being wonderful!

Tia took brilliant care of our cat, fed her, played with her and sent over pictures of the visit. Our cat doesn’t usually take to newcomers but you can tell Tia is good at what she does, the cat loved her. Will be booking again and would recommend to anyone.
