1. Simon&Nadeen R.

“We could not be happier with the excellent, reliable and kind way in which Simon and Nadeen care for our two very lively dogs. Yesterday, they took them for a walk (and fed them) whilst we were out for the afternoon. The dogs were properly tired yesterday evening so they’d obviously had the best time. Thank you once again Simon and Nadeen for helping us!”


2. Leonie T.

“Leonie has built up a very good relationship with our dog Buddy and he loves going for walks with her. She is always punctual and reliable and she has been walking him for several weeks now. He greets her enthusiastically when she arrives and seems to work off plenty of energy on their walks together. We’d happily recommend her.”

“Guys walked Timmy a few times for me now. No issues. Punctual, reliable and trustworthy. I'd definitely use them in the future.”


4. Megan H.
“Megan is a complete dog lover! She has two dogs of her own, and she takes amazing care of them. She has looked after our female greyhound many times and she always takes such great care of her. I trust Megan with our dog entirely. I would recommend her dog services to everyone!”


5. Kamila O.

“My dog Bagel LOVES Kamila so much, which definitely shows how well she's treated on her walks! Bagel often doesn't want to leave my side, but as soon as Kamila is around she's raring to go. Kamila is always gentle and kind, ignoring bad behaviour as I've asked, and will give Bagel all the cuddles she wants too. I can trust that Bagel is having the best time 😁”

10. Alice c.
“I have known Alice for as long as I can remember and in that time we have both loved and cared for many pets. Being our own or others. I have seen Alice provide some of the best attention I have ever seen towards her own pets. Bunny, her hedgehog Pumpkin, Jazzy the cat, Poppy and Archie the dogs to name a few. In her love, care and attention for animals she has provided any in her care to excellent standards. She has built homes, walked, cuddled, fed, trained, bathed, nursed and played in her own enjoyment her whole life. I have seen the continuity of her love out stretch from her own and others pets, to wildlife and stray animals in foreign countries. Whenever I need advice about how to manage to care for an animal I go straight to her. The best thing I can say is she genuinely cares and loves what she does, making everything she does 10 times better than anyone else can try to do.”


11. Darcey A.
“Darcey is amazing! She’s caring, an experienced pet owner herself, and very diligent. She’s looked after my dog many times and it’s safe to say he adores her! She’s trusting and responsible. Couldn’t ask for more!”


12. Casey B.
“I am so grateful to have found Casey! They took exceptional care of my pets while I was away, providing regular updates and photos that put my mind at ease. My dog,Buddy, and cat, Lola, were clearly comfortable and happy, and it was evident that Casey genuinely cares about their well-being. They followed all of my instructions to a T and went above and beyond to make sure my pets were pampered and loved. I couldn’t ask for a more reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Highly recommend!”
13. Nadia W.
About: Hello! My name is Nadia and I am 21 years old and a final year student children's nurse, studying at a local university. In my spare time I am a very keen runner, I love crafting, reading and spending time with friends. Being at University I really miss having animals around, as growing up pets were a big part of my life, always around me, from chickens, cats, fish and often looking after friends and families dogs. I am very fond of animals, and find them really beneficial to my wellbeing. I have gathered lots of experience over the years both caring for my own pets and regualrly house sitting for both my family and other families to look after their own animals, particualrly dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens whilst they go on holiday. I would love to offer my services in looking after your pets, whether thats walking them, or visiting, feeding and caring for them, I would love to help you out! Although I can't unfortuantely accommodate them in my own home, I have a car and so I am able travel to care for your pets. I offer either 30 minute or 1 hour long walks, home visits up to 2x a day, or I am more than happy to stay in your own home whilst you are away for a period of time to care for your animals. I fully understand the need to find the right person to look after your animals, and so if you would like any more information from me, please just get in touch, I'd be more than happy to answer any questions. I’m currently a student so I am fortunate to have a flexible schedule and am able to fit pet care well into my routine, whether that’s before and after a nursing shift or during my lunch break from lectures. I always follow guidance and instructions from owners about how they wish for their pets to be cared for. I always send updates and pictures to owners whilst they are away. I ensure animals and pets are kept safely away from roads and dangerous environments, for example keeping them on leads when necessary.


14. Letitia B.
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, I have developed a deep understanding of their unique needs. Growing up with dogs instilled a love and respect for their companionship, and as an adult, I’ve continued to provide a nurturing and supportive environment for my own pets. I am dedicated to ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and understood, combining compassion with a professional approach to meet their individual needs. I am currently on a career break so my availability isn't limited however, I will be going back to college from September so will update once I have more information. I am happy to follow owners way of looking after their pet. When out walking I won't allow dogs off leash until I have a trusted bond and am confident that their recall is strong. As I have 3 cats I will only offer boarding to dogs in my own home if they aren't bothered with them.

“Isabella is really lovely, good with communication took my last minute booking and went on a really long walk. Rupert is a very happy boy after his walk and will definitely sleep well tonight! What more can you ask for!”


16. Tanya M.
About: I volunteer at St francis animal welfare where I walk and play with the dogs. I'm also currently doing a level 3 diploma in canine behaviour and welfare. I work a few part time jobs so I can go back between jobs to check on dogs, keep them company and give them toilet breaks. I try to stick to the routine that the owners tell me. I treat the dog as if they were mine and give them lots of attention.
