About: Hi, we’re Rosie & Rita and we here to look after your little fluffy ones when you’re out and about. We’ve both owned and looked after lots of pets over the years, and absolutely love animals. We’ve doubled up on this account so we can offer double the availability 😊 We’ve had many dogs and cats over the years, including Jack Russells, Staffordshire bull terriers, Labs, Golden Retrievers, mixed breeds and Griffons. We have two cats ourselves, including one who is on daily medication and one who doesn’t like being touched (so understand the sensitive ones). We’ve walked, bathed, fed, brushed and played with small to large dogs. We are used to walking dogs that need both slow and steady walks and those that need intensive exercise. We both work part time, mostly from home, and have flexible schedules. We currently work part time from home, and have plenty of time and breaks to play with, cuddle and play with your pets. We have very flexible schedules and are happy to adapt to their needs. We like the interaction with the pet to be led by them so they can learn to feel safe with either of us, as having rescues in particular in the past we know how important that can be. We don't offer services in our home but would love to know about any safety and setup particulars of your space 😊

“Victoria saved the day with a last minute dog care! She took Ace out for a walk, took the time to play with him after and sent pictures of their time together. What a great service Victoria provides!”

About: Hi, I'm Michael, a lifelong dog owner and dedicated animal lover. I currently share my life with Finn, my Mini Australian Shepherd, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog's care, safety, and happiness. Before moving to the UK, I was the go-to dog sitter for friends and family in Texas. Over the years, I cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, whether that meant daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or simply making sure they felt comfortable while their owners were away. Living with an energetic and intelligent dog like Finn has given me plenty of experience with dogs that need both physical exercise and mental engagement. I know that every dog is different, and I take the time to understand their routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether you're looking for regular walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting, my goal is to provide reliable care and give you complete peace of mind while you're away. I'll treat your dog like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they're doing. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have my own Mini Australian Shepherd, Finn, so I'm used to regular walks, exercise, playtime, and making sure dogs get the attention they need throughout the day. I currently work part-time as a video editor, which gives me flexibility for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I'm available on most weekdays and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate different schedules whenever possible. Whether your dog needs a quick visit, a long walk, or care while you're away, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Your dog's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog's routine, personality, and any special instructions before providing care. Whether I'm walking your dog, visiting your home, or pet sitting, I'll follow your guidance closely to help maintain a familiar and stress-free experience. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important communication is. I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always focus on creating a safe, positive, and enjoyable environment for them.

About: With lots of hands on experience caring for animals after many years of pet ownership! From owning pets at the age of three, to looking after loved ones' pets and working in wildlife conservation - I am a huge animal lover and have spent nearly my whole life surrounded by them! My experience mostly lies with dogs, cats and rabbits - but also varies from sea turtles to other marine animals! In my background, I have developed a strong knowledge and understanding of animals and their needs. I know how important it is to provide them with attention, companionship, exercise and, most importantly, safety! I am familiar with caring for pets - including feeding, walking, administering basic care, maintaining routines and ensuring they feel comfortable and happy. I am currently a Marine Biology student, who loves nature/animals and will be living at home over the summer, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets and provide them with bespoke care! I am available on weekdays and at weekends - after 5pm on Saturdays and 1pm on Sundays. My daily routine involves early morning walks/runs in the countryside and often a wild swim, following some afternoon studying and administration. So whether your pet loves being outside and letting off some steam or prefers to stay indoors and enjoy a bit of peace and quiet, my schedule is flexible and I will be able to cater to all furry friends! At my home, I have a front gate/porch and a fenced back garden to keep your fur baby safe and secure. Also, I can easily crate your pet if necessary. I do not have any other pets or children present in my home environment, nor is it a busy setting with lots of activity or high noise levels. I believe clear communication is key, as I am aware that each pet is unique and has individual requirements, alongside every owner having personal preferences. I will always do my very best to provide the top level of care for your pet.

About: I truly love animals and treat every fur baby like family, with patience, reliability, and close attention to their routine. Occasionally, I’ve had to take close one’s fur babies for vet care, and trips on my scooter bike. I’m currently working from home so pet care can easily fit into my daily routine, with regular walks, attention and timely meals. Cuddle time or playtime My goal is to keep it as normal and stress free for the pets. With a fenced house, your pet will have a safe space to play and relax. I’m able to follow their usual routine and accommodate any special care as needed.

About: I’ve had spaniels the best part of my life, currently sharing a house with a 2 year old sprocker called Mylo. Firefighters as my full time job so have a good amount of time to take dogs for walks when on my days off! I work a 2-2-4 pattern, so 2 days, 2 nights, 4 off, so have ample time to fit in dog walks around my shift pattern. Fully enclosed large garden for dogs to play in, am able to walk dogs alongside my spaniel Mylo. Happy to keep on lead if that is what the owner requests.

About: I have studied at the Royal Veterinary College so have an understanding of the physiology and behaviour of dogs and cats, plus a variety of other domestic pets. I have pet sat a few animals now and have gained experience in large dogs, small dogs and cat sitting. I am part-time employed so pet sitting in the afternoons and evenings will fill up my spare time, gaining quality experience with animals that may potentially help me in the future as a potential veterinarian. I can easily follow instructions and would provide updates on your pet so you feel your loved pet is in the best possible care and ensuring they aren’t lonely when you’re away.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and frequently look after friend’s and family dogs. I love long walks and making sure that the dogs get sufficient exercise. 🐶💫 I am offering dog care at weekends only, as this is when I am not working and can give the dog all of the attention they deserve 💓 We have a fenced back garden for the dogs to play in and locally live near lots of great places walks with open spaces for them to run free.

About: I own a gorgeous mixed dog breed so have direct experience as well as my childhood home hosting various cats and dogs. I have dealt with heartbreak and pure pleasure. Currently in between jobs so could do with some extra money. Each week I can be flexible. Evenings are also a possibility as well as weekends. I have a modest sized house with sufficient fencing. I live alone. No children. I own a dog myself so I am very aware of what is too much .

About: We didn’t just adopt a dog—we welcomed a quiet, gentle soul into our home. Our rescue greyhound called teddy arrived with cautious eyes as if the world was still something to be figured out. Now teddy has his favourite sunny spot, his funny sleeping positions, and his little bursts of playful energy that catch us by surprise. Ted has gone from unsure and afraid of the world to completely at ease, and in doing so, hes changed our home too. It’s warmer, calmer, fuller. Watching Teddy learn to trust has been the most rewarding part. The first tail wag when we came home, the first time he leaned into us for affection, the moment he chose to rest his head on our lap—each small step felt like a milestone. It’s a reminder of how resilience and kindness can transform a dogs life so much . We have had teddy for 5 years now and he is a completely different dog displaying such confidence and joy in everything he does I am currently studying from home therefore your pet will be my top priority and i will have plenty of time to take care and play with them . I will always make sure your pet is in a comfortable and safe situation. I have an anxious dog myself and i know how to keep them calm on walks and avoid other dogs . I am experienced when it comes to identifying the signs of a dog feeling threatened or scared by other dogs making me the perfect protector for your pet.

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals of all sizes, so being around animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve had multiple pets growing up and am very comfortable with different temperaments, routines, and needs. I’ve also pet sat for friends and family on many occasions, looking after dogs and other animals in their homes and making sure they are well cared for and settled. I’m confident, calm, and tend to be the first person to approach and connect with an animal, even if they are shy or unsure. My focus is always on building trust, keeping routines consistent, and making sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits really well into my daily routine as I currently work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility and time throughout the day. I’m available for walks during the day, as well as drop-ins, and I can offer boarding any day of the week. Having a flexible schedule means I can give dogs consistent attention, regular exercise, and company throughout the day, especially when they’re staying in my home. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so the pet feels safe and settled. I take time to understand their feeding, walking, and comfort needs, and always prioritise calm, attentive care. I’m very respectful of the home environment. I make sure things are left clean and tidy, including food areas, floors after walks, and any mess that may happen during the day. I’m mindful of keeping doors, gates, and any house rules exactly as requested, and I always ensure everything is secure and as I found it before leaving. My aim is for both the pet and owner to come home to a calm, clean, and well-cared-for space.

About: Having had many animals during my childhood (guinea pigs, terrapins, budgies, hamsters) that were my own to care for from a young age, I understand the responsibility of caring for animals and ensuring their physical and mental wellbeing. I currently have dogs and cats at my family home and so have a versatile repertoire of animal care and can be trusted with a range of animals to look after. As a recently qualified vet, I feel very comfortable around animals and want to ensure you feel as though your pet is being cared for properly and safely. We have had CPR training for dogs and cats so in an emergency would know how to respond, and in general may be able to look out for and act on any other problems whilst your pet is in my care. I have a keen interest in behaviour and training so would be more than happy to attempt some low-level training with younger animals. Overall, this process is about ensuring you feel most at ease with me whilst looking after your pet, and I would love the opportunity to take care of your companion, so please feel free to message and ask any further questions! I am a full time vet at a small animal practice in Taunton with most weekends and Wednesdays off. I have excellent time-management skills and will always be able to fit things around caring for your pet. I'm a friendly, communicative, and confident person and I'd love any opportunity to build a trustful relationship between myself, yourself, and your pet. So that when your animal is in my care, you feel happy and comfortable knowing your pet is being well taken care of
