“Thank you so much for looking after my boy today. He has so much fun and thank you for all updates through me being away. We are really greatful for your help today! He is one happy boy.”

“Fantastic! Cooper took to Jeanette immediately, and she was brilliant with him. Lots of gorgeous photos and regular updates. Would definitely recommend and use again if ever we are back here on holiday.”

About: What sets me apart is the combination of my genuine love for animals and my professional approach. I’m DBS checked, trained in Canine First Aid, a non-smoker, calm, and organised. Pet care is my full-time focus alongside part-time work, so I have plenty of availability and flexibility to give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m also comfortable giving medication (after being shown the routine) and always take the time to build trust so your pets feel happy and secure while you’re away. I work part-time, which allows me the flexibility to focus exclusively on cat sitting. I am available for morning and evening visits on my working days, which aligns perfectly with most cats’ regular feeding and care routines. My schedule is consistent and dependable, so owners can count on reliable daily visits. I care for cats in their own home with calm, reliability, and full respect for their routine and space. I am trustworthy, DBS checked, and trained in dog first aid. While I have never had to use first aid in practice, I always carry a fully stocked first aid kit with me for peace of mind. I always inform owners in advance of the exact time I will be visiting and I’m happy to stay in regular contact during each visit. If anything changes or if an owner forgets to mention something, I am always flexible and happy to follow updated instructions. I live a calm, healthy, and relaxed lifestyle, which suits cats perfectly, as they usually prefer quiet, gentle energy around them. During visits I can feed your cat, refresh water, clean and change the litter tray, brush them, play with them, and of course give cuddles if they enjoy affection. While in your home, I also make sure to clean up after your cats. I wash their food and water bowls after every meal, so owners don’t have to worry about dried or crusty food and won’t need to clean up immediately after returning from holiday. I also offer photos and videos during visits, fully based on the owner’s preference — whether that’s daily updates for reassurance or minimal messages for those who are happy to leave everything in trusted hands.
“Caroline was absolutely brilliant in every way! The booking was last minute but she made time to come out and meet our slightly nervous Labrador and instantly you could tell she has a way with animals. She kept in touch (as we requested). She was very understanding of his medication needs and administered everything he needed. He was settled and happy and she left the house looking perfect. Highly reccomend. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my family ever since I was young and will soon have my own puppy to look after. I’m also very trusted by all my neighbours to look after over night of, take for a walk, or have for the day their dogs. I work from home and i have three children, two of which go to school so i am very flexible in the week and flexible at the weekends to come and care for your pets. I own my house with my own private garden, my house isn’t the biggest but it is dog proof due to having my own and I am very respectful in other peoples home, my neighbours trust me to go over and care for their animals in their own homes.
“Victoria was amazing!!! We were so grateful that her and her partner were so caring and attentive with Riley! We had no worries he was being looked after properly and having amazing walks! Our only concern was that he loved Victoria so much he didn’t want us back!!! We are so impressed with their dog sitting - it felt like they understood Riley (who can be a special dog) and loved him like we would! Massive thank you!!!”

About: Completely animal obsessed with a loving and caring nature. I have grown up with pets my whole life and I would love nothing more than to look after your little fluffys and give them the care and attention they deserve. They will be loved and well looked after like they were my own 😍🥰 I work from home and can be very flixibke so there will be plenty of love/time and attention to go around in giving the best possible care for your little ones.

About: I have a merit in Animal care level 2, in college we had an animal care unit with every animal you could think of, this really gave me a great overview on how to care for every animal, and they have different needs. I have grew up with animals all my life, from dogs to cats to hamsters to snakes. It is my dream job to be able to care for animals and do anything I can as this is my passion in which I will always follow. My currently work 48 hours a week as a support worker so was looking to fit in some dog walking every now and again. Every week is different it is never consistent with the days so will have to be booked in advance so I can plan ahead. I have a dog who lives at home with me, he is a big dog and always has energy so needs attending to frequently. He has a big garden to run around in and get taken out for plenty of walks. Keeping a dog on a lead especially with new dogs is a must for the safety of myself, a customers dog and others.
About: I have been around furry friends since the age of 5. I am now 25 years of age and I enjoy every part of being a dog owner. I currently work in the mental health sector, so I understand the importance of physical activity and nature. This inspires me more in enjoying the outside, and exploring new places with my furry friends. I have 2 dogs of my own at home, and I often look after/walk my friends dogs when they are working or away I am currently available between 6:30am-8:30am; 4:30pm-10:00pm weekdays for feeds or walks. I can be flexible on weekends for feeds,walks and house sitting requests. Please message for any requests/follow up questions regarding services, always happy to answer any questions I will only look after pets in the owners home, due to my own dogs living at my house. I will make sure to leave the owners house as I have entered, taking precision in cleanliness and respect on my visits.
About: I’ve been a cat owner and lover for 40+years. I have owned and looked after numerous other animals including dogs, goats etc but cats are my speciality. Worked in banking since the 1980’s, became known for diligence, investigating and safeguarding vulnerable customers. After redundancy I have taken to my passion, which is caring for animals and people. I know that not all cats can or will go to a cattery. If you are looking for some one who you can completely trust with your most precious friend and companion, I am available. I would love to meet you and your pet to discuss your needs or to talk at length about them when ever. After redundancy I have taken to my passion, which is caring for animals and people. I care for an elderly neighbour on Mondays, and am other wise free for Cat sitting or house sitting with Dogs. Cats and dogs will be cared for with the utmost diligence in their own homes, with safety and comfort being main priority. Schedules for feeding and walks adhered to as well and medication needs.

At a moments notice Carly was able to house sit my dogs. I just moved to Torquay and when you don’t know anyone, it really means a lot. Frequent photos followed by any gossip makes time away from the pups effortless. If anyone needs a dog sitter I would 100% recommend Carly.
