“Maria looked after our three boys for five days while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the moment we left, she gave us complete peace of mind by sending regular updates and lovely photos every day, so we always knew they were happy, relaxed, and being well cared for. She made sure they had their daily walks, lots of love and attention, and treated them as if they were her own. She also kindly accommodated us by taking them to a pre-paid local secure dog field, which we really appreciated. When we arrived home, the house was spotless and exactly as we’d left it, bedding had been washed for our return, which was such a lovely bonus after travelling. Most importantly, our boys absolutely adored Maria. It was obvious they had built a real bond with her, and they were genuinely sad to see her leave! We would recommend Maria without hesitation to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter. We will 100% be booking her again in the future. Thank you so much, Maria.”

About: I’ve always adored dogs and had multiple in my childhood. I currently have one dog, Toby. He’s a very cheeky Yorkie who loves playing ball and needs attention. My dream is to quit my full time corporate job and open up a doggy daycare. Most of my family and friends have dogs and we love socialising together and looking after eachothers dogs when needed. I want to help you to take away the pressure and make sure your furry companion is well looked after. Every dog needs that little bit of extra care which is so important for their well being. So whether it’s a walk, a belly rub or a fetch play session I’m here. As I work from home I have full flexibility to assist your needs and make sure that your companion can have adequate toilet breaks and a friend whilst you’re not there. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out!☺️ I work from home, so pet care is super easy as I don’t have commute commitments. Having a dog myself I always make sure to have time for multiple daily walks and playtime. I have a 5ft fenced garden with enough space to play and go out for a wee if needed. We have multiple nice walking paths around the area to excercise the dogs and frequently go to country parks for longer adventures.

“Diane did a great job of looking after Peanut, he was a happy healthy pup when we got home. She was very prompt with pictures and updates and I felt very comfortable leaving peanut in her care!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Dog Sitter – Highly Recommend! We had the absolute best experience with Mandy, who looked after our black Labrador, Gunner, for a week while we were away. From the very first day, it was clear that Gunner was in the most caring and capable hands. Mandy truly spoiled him with multiple walks each day, endless affection, and even surprised him with a new toy that quickly became his favorite! She went above and beyond by sending us daily photos and videos, which brought us so much joy and peace of mind during our holiday. Seeing how happy and relaxed Gunner was made it easy to fully enjoy our time away, knowing he was being loved and cared for just like he would be at home. We can’t thank Mandy enough for treating Gunner like part of her family. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dedicated dog sitter.”

“Very much appreciated the patience and care Jon and his wife took whilst looking after Polly. She appreciated the relaxing walks in the orchard near the house and they were very understanding when managing her reactivity. I would absolutely book them again.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and sizes. I regularly provide boarding, walks, and day care in our home in Peterborough. We live in a spacious house with a garden, close to several parks, where pets can enjoy safe walks and playtime. Animals are treated with love, attention, and care, as if they were part of our family. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my priority I have a flexible routine that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets every day. I am available throughout the week and on weekends, making sure your furry friend gets all the attention, playtime, and walks they need. Pet care easily fits into my daily life, as I enjoy spending time outdoors and caring for animals. Pets in my care are always treated with love and respect. I live in a spacious home with a secure garden where dogs can play safely. Our neighborhood has beautiful parks nearby for daily walks. I create a calm, safe, and trustworthy environment, ensuring pets feel comfortable and owners have peace of mind. If needed, I can also follow specific routines or instructions to match each pet’s needs.

About: I have always had a strong love for animals, especially dogs, as I grew up surrounded by lots of different pets. Being around animals from a young age has helped me develop a natural understanding of how to care for them, be patient with them, and make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable. My experience as a dog sitter is something I really enjoy because I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and needs. I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, fresh air and companionship while their owners are away. One of my favourite parts of dog sitting is taking dogs out for walks. I enjoy giving them the opportunity to explore, exercise and have fun, while also benefiting from being outdoors myself. Going for regular walks with a dog helps me stay active and supports my own health and wellbeing, making it something that I find both enjoyable and rewarding. Overall, looking after dogs is something I am passionate about. Growing up with pets, combined with my experience caring for animals, has taught me to be responsible, caring and attentive. I would always treat someone else's dog with the same care and respect that I would give to my own pets. Working from home allows me to provide dogs with the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to take regular breaks to feed them, let them outside, give them attention and take them out for walks. Being at home also means dogs are not left alone for long periods of time, which can help them feel more comfortable and settled. I can easily fit walks and playtime around my working schedule while still making sure my work commitments are met. I really enjoy being around dogs while I work, and I believe my home-based routine is ideal for dog sitting. It allows me to give each dog plenty of care and attention while providing a safe, calm and loving environment for them. Although my garden is on the smaller side, it is fully fenced and provides a safe and secure space for dogs to have regular toilet breaks and get some fresh air throughout the day. I understand that the garden is not intended to replace proper walks and exercise, but it is a convenient and secure space for quick toilet breaks whenever needed. I also live next to a beautiful bank and walking area, which is perfect for giving dogs plenty of exercise and outdoor stimulation. I regularly take my family’s dog there for walks and really enjoy spending time outdoors with him. The area provides a lovely environment for dogs to explore, get some exercise and enjoy their surroundings. Having both a secure garden and such a beautiful walking area nearby means I can provide dogs with regular toilet breaks, exercise and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old, and to me, they’re more than pets—they’re family. My best friend growing up was Mikey, a lovable West Highland Terrier who stole everyone’s heart. After he passed, I realized just how special the bond between a dog and their human really is. That inspired me to help others feel confident leaving their furry friends in good hands. With years of experience, you’re not just getting someone who knows dogs—you’re getting someone who loves them. I’ve successfully trained all my own pups and taken part in multiple K-9 training sessions, which gave me the skills (and patience!) to guide pups of all personalities. I’m all about trust, care, and making sure your best friend feels safe, happy, and loved—just like they deserve. I work full-time in IT and have a predictable 9-5 schedule, making it easy to plan ahead and provide dependable care for your dog. I'm a friendly, active person who loves spending time with animals, and I'll treat your pup as if they were my own. With my flexible schedule and commitment to communication, you can relax knowing your dog is in safe hands and having a great time while you're away. Hi there! I’m a trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely pet-loving individual with years of hands-on experience. Over the years, I’ve never run into a single issue—just happy pets and even happier owners! I believe communication is key, so I always send regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away. You’ll always know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for—and your home is in good hands too. Cleanliness is super important to me (my flat is always spotless—dust doesn’t stand a chance!), and I bring that same level of care and respect into your home. I also offer flexible pet-sitting packages to fit your schedule and needs—whether it’s daily visits, overnight stays, or just some extra playtime while you’re at work. Let’s find the perfect setup for you and your furry friend!

“Emily is such a kind person, we are very comfortable to leave our Mia with her. So thankful she could look after Mia when we had a long day-out, and we will be using her services very soon as we're going away for a few days. Our dog is anxious and she needs extra love and attention that Emily is happy to provide ❤️ truly, we could not be happier that we found Emily!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life, i have grown up with them from a young girl and enjoyed every aspect of what they bring to life. The playing, walks, even conversation’s. Any dog I look after I build a friendship with. I am familiar with training techniques and tools but ideally aim for a dog to have the best time. I have a home where I can offer your pet a good sized garden with plenty of toys, a home where they are free to roam and treat it like their own. I currently work from home so I have time to look after my own Labrador and would to help people look after there’s too. I understand all to well how difficult it can be to balance work, life, pets, children etc. even if you just fancy a day out with you’re dog being looked after. I walk my labrador 3 times a day and we take many different scenic walks, or sometimes a play in the garden and a run. I have a good sized garden, which backs on to fields and surrounding by walls. I am in a quiet location where you can be assured they will be relaxed. I am able to crate/seperate some dogs if necessary. I can also travel to the owners home for drop ins, walks, plays or just some company
