Pet Sitting Torbay

“Sam looked after my 6 month old kitten on a drop in basis over two days. She was very kind and caring and clearly loves animals . I would not hesitate to recommend Sam and hope to see her again in the future. Thank you Sam ! Marilyn Taylor”

“Sophie took excellent care of our cat Lilly. We have had issues with pet sitters in the past and I was nervous of leaving Lilly again. Sophie definitely put my mind at ease. She came for a visit beforehand to meet her and asked lots of questions to find out all of her needs. It was so lovely to meet her and she was very knowledgeable on pet care. Sophie was also very considerate of my autistic daughter who wanted her to send pictures and videos so she wouldn't worry. Sophie was more than happy to do this and my daughter was over the moon. We could see by these updates that Lilly was relaxed and well looked after. On our return, Lilly was of course, happy to see us but once she had a bit of fuss, it was clear she was content and had no stress at all. Sophie left everything exactly as it was and even did the little bit of washing up that I hadn't managed to do before leaving as well as emptying the dishwasher. It was such a relief to know that Lilly was in good hands! I got to enjoy my holiday knowing my fur baby was safe and cared for. I would definitely recommend Sophie to look after your pets and absolutely will book her in the future (if she's available of course 😀). Thank you Sophie 😊”

“Such a wonderful caretaker for my cats! They loved her (generally very scared of people) and she stayed in amazing contact with me the whole time”

“Aneta looked after our dogs for the first time at the weekend, they warmed to her instantly and she took time to understand what our dogs liked/disliked. We’ve rebooked Aneta for a week or so in September and we feel happy and comfortable knowing our dogs are in good hands.”

About: I’ve been dog walking and boarding for over two years, and I’m usually the first call when friends need someone to care for their pets while they’re away. I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and all kinds of animals, so caring for pets has always been part of my life. I’m a massive dog lover (my daughter is too!), and your pup will be treated like one of the family. I’m currently working part time and my job allows me to be home almost all the time. I tend to have max. of 2 dogs at time so they get as much attention and care as possible I am based in Livermead, only 5mins from the beach where dogs are welcome even during the summer and 5mins drive to Cockington park. Walk along seafront is always good too! Garden is fenced, and location is perfect for walkies.

“Savannah is a great sitter. Lots of photos and a very happy cat who showed no signs of stress at all on my return. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future 😀”

“Excellent sitter. Great communication, care and attention to detail. Dominika took the time to understand my cats’ need for a calm environment, which I (we) really appreciated. They were happy and relaxed when I got home. I’ll definitely be making more bookings. ”

About: I have always had animals in my life. We lost our 18 year old cat Winny last year to cat dementia. He was a rescue and it was devastating but we still have our furry friend mavis, she is our 5 year old cat who I and my daughter adore. I have always helped my friends and family with pet sitting when they go away so thought I would see if I could offer my cuddles to other animals when their families go away. I am currently a 3rd year student Nurse working for the NHS. Finances are tight as it is for everyone right now and as I love animals so much I thought why not use my free time earning some extra money while doing something I love. After the summer holidays I will be attending uni 3 days a week and have time to add this to my daily and weekly routine. I am flexible and happy to arrange with people and families about what will work for them. My aim in this is to visit pets in there homes, any animals. Feeding, cuddles, litter trays. I can do dog walks if it will fit in around schedules but predominantly I'm looking to do drop ins for feeds and cuddles and safety checks. I am very trust worthy and I am DBS checked.

About: Historically, I've had about 12 years experience with dogs. I used to foster lots of different breeds in a loving home. I had dogs come to me with all kinds of issues I helped them overcome them and equipped them to settle into a loving forever home. My partner of three years had two elderly rescues when we met, one has dementia (Harvey) and one had aggression issues (we lost Dudley in September). I helped with their care from the beginning and gained both of their trust and love. I live a very dog friendly home. A ground floor flat with enclosed back outside area, opposite a park. I live in a very dog friendly area with many dog friendly facilities nearby. I am trustworthy, caring and intuitive in my interactions with canines. I hope to make a career from boarding/walking/caring for canines, what could be better than to make a living out of something I love. My partner and I aren't ready for a new permanent dog after losing Dudley, so boarding is win win for us and update losing our beloved harvey rip fly with the angels rip dudley and harvey 🙏 I'm free nearly every day so availibility will not be a probleme message me and I fit you in my routine I'm very flexible. i have a back garden fenced off we have a park opposite us nice walks our home is very dog friendly warm energy we make dogs fèel at home and comfy like going from home to home

About: Experienced life long dog lover offering the best care possible for your pup. Loving home from home, walks, cuddles & care tailored to your needs. This is my job, I get so much joy from the company of dogs. They're hilarious, moody, stubborn and everything else. What a great job.

“Harrison is great. Responds very quickly. Loves animals. He was excellent with my cat. If you are looking for someone in the Torquay area you should definitely use him”

About: About Me – Your Trusted Pet Care Provider Hi, I’m Hayley, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes! From cats and dogs to hamsters, tortoises, and even fish—I’ve had the joy of looking after them all. My journey with animals started young, working in a veterinary practice while still in school. I then spent two years at Paignton Zoo while earning my BTEC in Animal Care, followed by university studies in Animal Science. My passion for animal welfare even took me to South Africa, where I self-funded a trip to work on a conservation park alongside incredible wildlife like elephants and lions. More recently, I sadly lost my beloved blue Staffy, Luna. She was my best friend, and her passing has left a paw-shaped hole in my heart. That’s why I’m offering my time, love, and experience to care for your pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s dog walking, pet sitting, or boarding, I provide a safe, loving, and experienced service you can trust. Let’s give your furry (or scaly!) family members the care they deserve! Get in touch today—I can’t wait to meet them. I work part time - on a hybrid basis- at home and elsewhere if needed. This means I have flexibility on working hours but on some days I may be out of the house for a few hours but I provide full transparency on this. Depending on your pets requirements I would love a chat and meet your furry friends to see how I can help you out! I have a welcoming bungalow with a fenced outside area. This does contain some stairs. I allow my pets on the sofa but they must be flea and tick treated. I have a large crate and a dog bed which can be located in our roomy utility room if they need a safe environment that’s quiet.

About: We've had cats and dogs our entire life and the most I owned was 9 when I lived on a farm ! I'm an emergency first aider, calm in a crisis, gentle and loving. I've owned birds, rabbits, reptiles, rats, dogs, pygmy goats, sheep and kune kune pigs.. all as pets ! We've pet sat in the USA (12 chihuahuas!) , Spain and even in the Peruvian jungle (a bald dog, 2 cats and chickens) and have great references. Self employed and love playing and bonding with all animals. We enjoy looking after people's pets all over the world. Its purrfect for us. We treat your pets like members of our own family. We like to find out each individuals likes, needs and requirements as every pet is different

About: I have worked on farms and studied animal care everything from welfare to animal management. I have grown up around different breeds and have a passion for spending as much time with dogs as possible. I believe all dogs are unique and a blessing. I am available for dog walks and any requirement you need for your dog i look to satisfy. There is no time in the day im not available or from short notice. Unfortunately i dont have the ability to home a dog dud to living arrangements. But am happy to meet any requirements of the dog owners requests.

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life, having dogs, cats, rats, fish and a hedgehog as a child. I currently live with my partner and our two cats, however I am often pet sitting for friends and family, usually for my partner's family's dogs (dachshunds, border collies and chihuahuas). The border collies in our family are quite old and require daily medication, which is something I'm used to scheduling my days around. When we first got our cats they came to us with fleas, so I'm also no stranger to the occasional flea bath and ear mite check. I enjoy spending my evenings with my own cats after work, however I work very close to home so can happily spend my lunch breaks at home if your pet is boarding with me. I tend to work Monday to Friday 9-5:30 and have weekends free, however I do often have Mondays and Tuesdays and odd afternoons off work too. I have two gorgeous cats of my own who have free range of the house and back garden as we live in quite a secluded, safe area away from main roads. I am more than happy to keep windows and doors closed for the safety and comfort of your pet, however the back garden has high fences so would be safe for a dog. We have plenty of toys and comfy places to nap around the house and a water fountain to ensure the animals keep hydrated.

About: Although I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience, I’ve grown up around animals and have my own dog, so I understand how much love, attention and care they need. Because I work away at times, it isn’t practical for me to have more pets of my own, which is why I love having the opportunity to care for other people’s beloved animals when I am home from work. When I’m home from work, I’m home full-time, so your pet will receive plenty of companionship, attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, daycare or boarding, I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, so I’ll happily keep you updated with regular photos and messages for complete peace of mind. I love animals of all kinds and would be delighted to meet your furry family members. I can’t wait to give them lots of love, cuddles and attention while you’re away! I work on a rotational schedule, so my availability varies throughout the month. When I’m home, I’m home full time and can provide plenty of attention, walks and companionship. I keep my Rover calendar up to date, so you’ll always be able to see my availability before booking. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I’ll take the time to learn about their routine, personality and any specific needs before their stay, so they can feel as comfortable as possible. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, exercise, medication or favourite routines. My home is calm, clean and pet friendly, with plenty of space for your pet to relax. I’ll provide regular updates and photos throughout their stay, walks or my visits so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy and well cared for.

About: I have been taking care of pets through borrow my doggy app, caring for a gorgeous border collie and many others quite recently and having had experience in my personal life of living with dogs. I am a respectful, experienced and dedicated pet sitter and helper. I enjoy all dogs and they have fun hanging out with me. Making sure their needs are met and more! Recently pet sat for a lovely black Labrador puppy for a few hours. I’m currently using this platform as my main job and therefor would be putting this first over other jobs I would have in the future as this is one of my passions. I have no prior commitments. I am available 24/7 At a pets home, I would discuss with the owner what the dog enjoys, preferences and accommodate within the discussions had and on top of that, I would bring treats specific if a diet was required. Being attentive is key and an awareness.

“Thank you molly for the photos of Minty she seems very happy. Minty was pleased to see us then been in the hallway looking at front door waiting for her friend to come 😂 we appreciate everything you have done and definitely will have you back next time we go on holiday. Peace of mind while we was away”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs and cats since I was 5 years old, giving me over 20 years of hands-on experience. While these have been our family pets and my parents' animals, I have lived with them for a large part of my life and have always shared the responsibility of their daily care. Growing up with them taught me how to accurately read animal body language and understand their unique personalities. I treat every pet with the same patience and affection that I give to my own family animals. Because I work entirely from home, I offer maximum flexibility for daytime walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sittings. When staying at your home, I bring my remote workspace with me, ensuring your pets are rarely left alone during the day. This flexible routine means your animals will enjoy constant companionship, plenty of attention, and regular toilet breaks while I work right alongside them. Your pet’s safety and routine are my top priorities in any environment. I am highly experienced at managing dogs of various sizes on a leash, keeping them safe and secure during outdoor outings, and I strictly follow all household rules. I am deeply respectful of your home, naturally tidy, and create a calm, low-stress space that is perfect for anxious or shy pets. You can always count on me for open communication, quick replies, and frequent photo updates so you can enjoy total peace of mind while you are away.
