About: I’ve had experience with dogs of all ages and personalities throughout fostering and absolutely love catering to all needs. I can help with puppies who love play, or more senior dogs who love to relax and need a cuddle. Will be sending you lots of photos and videos of your little one at their home away from home🥰🐶🐱 I’m currently a remote university student; so spend most of my time at home!! I’d absolutely love a pet of my own here in England, but as it’s a temporary move, figured providing pet sitting to those in need helps fill the gaps just that little better! I have a balcony and a pet free home, I have a nearby park and lots of walking routes to take your furbaby out as often as required, including through the night!

About: I have taken care of dogs for many years. I previously had my own doggy day care and dog boarding business. I'm now in a position where I can open up my lovely home to your furry friends. I have plenty of free time to look at your furry friend. I'm home all day with the occasional nip to the shops so your dogs will get lots of love and attention. I have a fenced garden and two dogs to give your friend company. A lovely big garden for them to play in and a large house for them to roam.

About: A genuine dog lover, I have a Cockapoo of my own. We enjoy morning, afternoon and evening walks. Play in the park and also offer a large garden for your dog to play and run around in should you need to leave him/her in a loving home while you are away. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible. I like to take a morning walk with the dog for around an hour before I return home to start my work day. With lots of short breaks to spend sometime together playing and of course the all important cuddle time :) This is followed by a short walk during lunch hours around 30min before heading back to work and a late afternoon or evening walking walk. Your dog will be cared for as I do for my own dog. Any special requirements would be adhered to as per your direction to ensure your furry friend comfortable with least disruption to their routine.

About: I'm Rita I'm 48 years old I'm married and I have two beautiful children I'm Portuguese. I'm a full-time mother and my passion since I was a child is animals, I have an immense love for all of them! I have a French bulldog, Stitch, 11 years old, and I have two cats, Funny, 15 years old and Jasmine, 5 years old, they are all friends. I feel good and happy with animals, they are very important in my life! I already had other animals, guinea pigs, birds and when my friends and neighbors go on vacation I take care of them... so I decided to sign up for this application to be able to add my love for animals and help take care of them whenever someone needs it , I have experience in taking care of animals for more than 30 years because I have always had animals ! For me, animals are part of the family and are always treated with all the love and care. All animals that may visit our house will certainly be treated as if they were ours and feel as if they were at home. I feel grateful to take care of the animals and receive affection from all of them, without a doubt that they are the best example of unconditional love and loyalty!🙏🏻❣️ I am available full time to take care of your pet in my home. Every day of the week including weekends! Our home is smoke free and we all love animals. All animals are welcome throughout the house, we offer a lot of love and affection, we have a private garden but we will go for walks in the morning and afternoon in parks close to the house, the place is pleasant and quiet. You are also welcome to join us on the sofa so that everyone feels at home.

About: I worked in a kennel and cattery for just over 10 years, so have handled many breeds of dogs, at various ages and sizes I've had my own pets and looked after Friends and families pets over the years I work full time, however I am based at home 4 days a week, and there will be someone in the house on the day I go to the office. I have a secure garden and have a baby gate In front of my front door. Dogs have the run of the house, but tend to follow me and lay next to my desk whilst I work, which leads to the back garden, which I have full view over from my desk

Jodie E.
“Jodie looked after my elderly cat Tina and was highly communicative, reliable and punctual. Jodie sent photos of Tina while we were away, which we all appreciated. We would absolutely ask Jodie to return.”


Billie A.
“We are so grateful to Billie for the outstanding care she gave to our beloved Simba while we were away. Simba is our 7-year-old mini dachshund who lives with IVDD, which means he needs a little extra help and attention to stay comfortable and mobile. Despite his condition, he’s full of character and loves life, and Billie took the time to really understand his needs, his routine, and his personality. From his daily physio exercises, mobility corrections during his wobbly walks, to his regular care and cuddles, Billie handled everything with such kindness, attentiveness, and genuine love for Simba. She kept us regularly updated, which gave us enormous peace of mind knowing he was not only safe, but thriving in her care. Coming home to a happy, settled Simba was the greatest reassurance that he had been in the best hands. Billie’s knowledge, patience, and compassionate approach made all the difference, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for a pet with additional needs. She is an absolute star.”


Genevieve J.

rachel s.
“Rachel is always my first point of call when we go on holiday for our Nala. It was so hard finding someone to trust to look after our furbaby, but then we found Rachel and her family. Reassured us with lots of pictures and always replying to my messages. Nala got so many walks and lots of love and attention. The perfect setting home from home. Rachel has now become like family to us. Will always recommend to anyone in need of dog sitter”
