“Kayleigh did a fabulous job with Puss. Puss is very nervous of new people but she took to Kayleigh straight away. Kayleigh fed her, cleaned up after her and made sure she was ok without crowding her. 🥰”


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.

“Paige has been an absolute superstar with Cheddar and Skittle. The fact that they warmed to her so quickly is a testament to her kind and gentle nature, she truly understood their personalities and tended to their individual needs. We didn’t worry about them once and her detailed pet cards were both a source of entertainment and a much needed source of relief being away from our pets! I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thankyou for everything Paige! Xx”

About: My names Amy & I have two beautiful dogs called Narla and Mika! Narla is an XL Bully and Mika is a Patterdale Terrier. I have loved animals ever since I was only a few years old, ranging from Cats, dogs, gerbils, degu’s, skinny pigs and many more! I have worked with many different breeds with many different temperaments. Every dog is different and that’s what makes them all special in their own little way. I’m currently working part time, meaning I have time both before and after my shift to care for your pets. Whether that’s for a cuddle or a feed! I am DBS checked, have pet first aid and many other animal qualifications meaning my knowledge of pets wellbeing and what to do in the harder situations is advanced!
“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’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors who need extra patience and support. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic medications, leash training and reinforcing good manners through positive reinforcement. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and body language, making sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I aim to keep pets relaxed and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits around my weekly college schedule, which I attend four days a week, plus one day of work experience at a doggy daycare. I’m used to structured routines and being around animals every day. Outside of those hours, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as weekends. My experience at a busy daycare has made me confident managing different personalities, keeping pets safe, and giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection whenever I’m with them. I’m also happy to be contacted about caring for other types of pets, including reptiles and small animals. Safety is always my top priority. I’ve done work experience in a veterinary clinic for 4 years, so I’m very comfortable around animals of all temperaments and have a good understanding of their health and behavior. I’m able to notice early signs of stress or illness and handle situations calmly if anything seems off. When I’m in your home, I’m respectful of your space and stick to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable. I make sure doors are secure, double-check leashes and harnesses, and keep a close eye on pets during outdoor time. I’m careful about unsafe foods or objects and always aim to keep things calm and clean. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.

About: I have had dogs since my early 20’s. Friends and family have relied on me to dog walking and look after their fur babies. I am now retired so will have plenty of time to play and care for your dog. Three walks daily. I am at home the majority of the time so your dog will not be left unattended for long periods of time. I have a fenced garden and a cavapoo to keep your dog company. Non crated dogs welcome. Dogs will be treated as my own whilst they are in my care.
“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.”

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING PET SITTER !!! We would happily give more than 5 stars if we could. Neomi only lives round the corner so we managed to meet her beforehand which was so reassuring. My anxiety was instantly eased as soon as we started speaking and she kept us updated with our 3 cats constantly! We got lots of pictures from her and can tell she absolutely loves animals and has so much care for them. We will be having her over every time we go away and we really could not recommend her more. Thank you so much 💗”

About: Hello, I'm Charlotte and I own my very own little fluff ball Ripley. She's a five year old Patterpoo, I absolutely adore dogs so I would love to look after your baby. Ripley is by my side everywhere I go. I have had Ripley from a puppy and trained her to do several commands. Ripley loves cuddles and Long walks as well as playing with her doggy friends so she would love a friend to play with whilst looking after your fur baby. (I only board/day care small dogs) Ripley is crate trained, but that went out the window a while ago, she has full run of the house and there's no such things as no pets on the furniture in my home. Your fur baby will get lots off attention, as Ripley does suffer from speration anxiety so comes with me everywhere (when I can) so your dog will be well looked after and get lots of attention I currently have most days free due to not starting full time work until the end of July. So your dog will be well looked after and spend lots of time with me I must meet your dog before any boarding or day care services are provided - I have a yard that is fully fenced and secure and gets great sun for those dogs who like to sunbathe like me. There's a local canal/forest in which myself and Ripley often take walks in. Dogs are allowed on the furniture in my home and if they are well behaved they can sleep on the bed. I also have two crates available if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. Your dogs will need to be well socialised as myself and Ripley like to venture out for food and drinks in local dog friendly restaurants Please note your dogs must be happy to ride in cars
“Very pleased with Demmi’s care and communication. We were apprehensive about having someone to look after our large Vizsla as they are high energy dogs but she did a fantastic job. Will be using her in future!”


About: I’ve always had pets since a child, as well as I have my animal care level 3 and my canine first aid. I also have my own business that has personal insurance. I currently have my own business but I am mostly free, I am unavailable before dinner on Mondays. Tuesdays-Thursdays I am available from 9-10:30 then 12-5. Fridays I am free all day. I will be looking after your pets in your home as I have a older dog that doesn’t like dogs and a guinea pig as well

About: I have over 25 years of experience caring for dogs and run Ruby’s Retreat, a home-from-home boarding service in Dukinfield. As a Rover Star Sitter with 33 five-star reviews, I provide personalised care in a calm family environment. I work from home, meaning dogs receive company, supervision and attention throughout the day. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, rescue dogs, nervous dogs, medication administration and multi-dog households. Every dog is treated as an individual and I take time to learn their personality, routine and preferences so they feel safe, relaxed and settled during their stay. I carefully manage group dynamics and only accept dogs that I feel will be a good fit for the environment, ensuring a positive experience for everyone. I work from home full-time, which means dogs are rarely left alone and receive plenty of supervision, attention and companionship throughout the day. Each day includes garden access, exercise, playtime, rest periods and lots of interaction. I adapt routines to suit individual dogs, whether they prefer active days, quiet companionship or a little of both. I am flexible with feeding schedules, medication requirements and established routines to help your dog feel comfortable and settled during their stay. At Ruby’s Retreat, dogs stay in a calm family home with secure outdoor space and are treated as part of the family. I carefully manage introductions and group dynamics to ensure dogs are well matched and comfortable with one another. Every dog receives individual attention and I take time to understand their personality, routine and any specific needs before their stay. Dogs are welcome on furniture and have access to both indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the day. However, I am always happy to follow an owner’s preferred rules and routines to maintain consistency. Regular photo and video updates are provided throughout your dog’s stay, giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away.
“As always Nicola was so great with our two cats. She is our regular pet sitter now and has a great availability. We are always getting some updates and pictures during our holidays so we can enjoy our time whilst knowing our cats are well taken care of :)”


About: I have grown up with family pets including horses, fish, birds, hamsters and mostly dogs! I was a regular Borrow My Doggy walker and have provided overnight dog sitting for family and friends. Dogs I have cared for and grown up with include cairn terrier, lurcher, cockapoo, beagle, mixed breed. A year ago I rescued my first cat Willow from the RSPCA and have never looked back! She's been the best addition to our family. My main job is a registered nurse. I've been a cancer/palliative care nurse for 26 years so if you're looking for someone who is thoughtful, caring, reliable and trustworthy that's just who I am. My availability will be mostly ad hoc on my days off and holidays. I work to a monthly rota in my main job as a registered nurse so pet drop ins, walks and sitting will fit in around this. *Message me for dates from August '26 onwards - current availability released for April, May, June and July* I will be guided by you and care for your pets as you would; how you manage their behaviour, walking on or off the lead, feeding, cleaning and providing love and attention. I will also respect and care for your home during drop ins and overnight stays. I have always stood by the saying, "treat others as you would want to be treated yourself".
“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: 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.

Shelley was amazing once again. Plenty of updates and videos of her drop ins with Avro. He absolutely adores Shelley which was clear on all of the video updates sent during the check ins. TBH he looked disappointed when we walked through the door on return from hols when he saw we weren't Shelley! Thoroughly recommend.
I couldn't be happier with the care provided for my two cats. From the very beginning, Laura was reliable, professional, and clearly love animals. Laura kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My cats were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when I returned, and it was obvious they had received plenty of attention and affection. I would highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my furry babies Laura xx

Dawn was fantastic as a cat sitter. Dawn is great at communicating and following up on emails and booking, she is reliable and comes at the time agreed, she sent pics of Marvin and let me know how he was doing regularly and she will do little extras like picking up post and closing the curtains when asked. Moreover she left the kitchen and Marvin’s dishes clean and tidy. I would absolutely rebook Dawn for as long as she is a cat sitter. Thank you Dawn.

Kayleigh was fantastic from start to finish Her communication was brilliant and it was easy to setup a meet and greet, where we could tell she loved all pets and was a very kind, genuine person During the visits Kayleigh provided brilliant updates each day detailing what she had done during the visit and how our cat was doing which gave us peace of mind, she also included lots of photos which was nice! Our cat is usually very shy around new people but it seems she took a real liking to Kayleigh We would highly recommend and will definitely be using Kayleigh again
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.
