House Sitting Torfaen

“Tanya was fantastic with our rescue boy Kenzo. He’s super highly strung and anxious, especially when we leave the house together. We wanted someone who Kenzo could become comfortable around easily and Tanya adapted brilliantly to his needs, recognising he needs a little time to work things out before he relaxes. Her calm and soft approach helped him settle beautifully while we enjoyed a date night for the first time in forever. Would thoroughly recommend”

“We had a great experience with Tina. Despite my last-minute request, she took the time to come over beforehand to meet Bobbin and learn about his behaviour, routine, and care needs. Throughout the day, Tina sent regular updates and photos, which was really reassuring. It was lovely to see that Bobbin was having so much fun with her and getting plenty of cuddles and attention. He clearly had a wonderful day and was very happy and relaxed in her care. Tina was kind, professional, and attentive, following all of Bobbin's care instructions and taking great care of my home as well. I felt completely confident leaving him with her. I wouldn't hesitate to book Tina again and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

About: I have lived with animals in and around my home since I was little, and sincerely believe that pets are as much a part of family as other people. I have experience within the pet retail industry, once working for a small independent local pet store, and have extensive knowledge on pet products and pet care. I have a natural friendship with pets, and having dog/ cat sat for family and friends have cemented myself as their pets best friend- And after many years still receive wagging tails and zoomies when I turn up at their house! Growing up my family dog was a very hungry and very friendly Chocolate Labrador named Mambo, who I delighted in giving copious walks, playtime, and treats. I currently live with my fiance and my cat son, Mister Pebbles, who is the lord of the house. He is seven years old but doesn't act like it, and requires daily medicine and a strict routine. While Mister Pebbles was my fiance's cat initially, I have over the years developed a strong father-son bond with him, and much to my fiances dismay may have become the favourite parent. I have access to my own vehicle, and can be flexible according to both you and your pets needs. I am currently unemployed, focusing much of my time on being a good house husband to my fiance. I intend on pursuing a PhD part-time in the new year, and I am excited to work my pet sitting duties around this. In the meantime I am fully flexible and available, own my own vehicle, and am able to fit my schedule around the needs of yourself and your pet. I am reliable, responsible, and communicative, and will endeavour to supply peace of mind throughout every step of our journey together. As both a pet owner and a homeowner, I fully understand how much anxiety can arise from trusting your home and pets with a new sitter. I am more than happy to field any and all questions you may have for me prior to you making your booking. Even if a quick chat with me would ease your mind, I am more than happy to accommodate!

We can offer a safe space for your pet with plenty of room to roam in our 4 bed house. There are plenty of lovely fields and walks for daily exercise.

“I cannot recommend Laura highly enough. Laura kept us both in the loop with how our pup was doing, from photos of her enjoying herself and messages reassuring us she was behaving and happy. Laura responded quickly and offered to do a meet and greet before hand. Laura really was fantastic and our little girl loved every minute spent with her. We can now book holidays knowing our dog is in safe hands. I would not hesitate to recommend Laura”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember and have grown up with both cats and dogs throughout my life. My experience includes caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from giant Newfoundlands to miniature Jack Russell’s, so I am comfortable adapting to the individual needs of each pet. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry family members. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away. I genuinely love spending time with animals and will treat your pets with the same care and attention that I give my own. I currently work part-time along side studying, but my schedule is very flexible as my bother and I manager our own shifts within our family business. With a little notice I can usually adjust my work schedule to accommodate pet sitting and dog walking bookings. I’m available all throughout the week and also the weekend. I have a commitment to running a theatre group 10am - 1pm on a Saturday. I am happy to discuss individual requirements and will always do my best to be flexible to suit both you and your pet’s needs.

I’ll always make your pet’s wellbeing my priority and ensure they receive plenty of attention and care. I will also respect that I am a guest in your home and will treat your property with the upmost care, keeping everything clean, tidy and secure throughout my visit. I’ll happily provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well looked after.

About: I have had dogs as long as I can remember. I had the most beautiful Newfie up until two years ago. Currently I have an 14 year old Jack Russell who struggles to walk and can be looked after by the rest of my family if I am away. I have grown up with newfies, cats and Jack Russell’s. Always had at least one or two of each at a time. I am currently a mature student and my hobbies include studying in some lovely quiet surrounding while Also taking (well, until the last year or so as she’s not longer able) my dog on adventures up Mountains, beaches and to new place - her being unable to now is what is driving my need to do this for another dog. I am currently studying for a degree as a mature student of nearly 50 years old. My beautiful Jack Russell is 14 years old, deaf and going blind. We used to have adventures every day and I desperate miss that as she can no longer walk more than 20 minutes at a time anymore. She will stay home with husband and kids while I’m away. I would love to look after your dogs/cats and take them for walks or adventures or just cuddles or playing whatever they need or want. After all their needs are seen to I can concentrate on my studies and on my breaks can take them for comfort breaks or little walks for a change of scenery. I do not look after pets in my own home as my poor of Jack Russell is not an animal ‘person/dog’. I would never put her happiness at risk. I only look after pets in their own home (because that’s also where they feel more comfortable - especially when their loved ones are away). I am happy to follow whatever schedule they’re used to or prefer. I’m happy to do long adventurous walks or smaller/shorter walks throughout the day.

About: I’ve always lived my life alongside a four legged friend. From cats, to dogs, to tortoises. I have daily experience of looking after cats, including my own two, and have been a dog walker in London for the last eight months. I am used to caring for cats and dogs- be it for an afternoon or for a weekend- and I am very conscientious when they are in my care. I am a recent graduate that currently works part time with a teaching agency. My current work schedule means that I can be available to pet sit all day/weekend or walk your pet with a day’s notice. I have a fenced garden with astroturf where your pet will be safe to run around without having to leave the house. Alternatively my house faces onto extended fields and nature walks where I can happily walk your pet if a longer/ more exerting walking session is required. I also live with two adult cats that tend to curl up on their cushions on the windowsill and typically keep themselves to themselves.

About: I have experience caring for a variety of dogs, including a Shih Tzu and a Pug, as well as other breeds belonging to friends and family. I’m confident with feeding, walking, playing, keeping dogs company and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs. I’m patient, attentive and will always treat your dog as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your dog. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I’m also happy to work around your dog’s usual routine, including their normal feeding, walking and play times. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medication, routines and house rules.

About: Hiya, I’m Katya! I’m 23 and have recently graduated from university after spending the last few years studying in Cardiff. I’ve now moved to Cwmbran with my partner and his family, where I’ll be based for the next year. I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have around 10 years of experience being around and caring for them, from looking after my own dogs to helping friends and family with theirs. Because of this, I’m comfortable around dogs of different sizes, personalities and energy levels, and I absolutely love getting to know each dog's individual little quirks! Since graduating, I’ve decided to take some time before jumping straight into a full-time career, which means I currently have a much more flexible schedule. Pet sitting and dog walking gives me the opportunity to spend that time doing something I genuinely enjoy. I’m caring, patient and reliable, and I understand how nerve-racking it can be to trust somebody else with your pet. I’ll always treat them with the same love and care I’d give my own and make sure you’re kept updated while they’re with me. ❤️ Since graduating from university, my schedule has become much more flexible. I still work part-time at a bar, usually on Friday and Sunday evenings and occasionally during the week, although my shifts can vary. At the moment I’m taking some time to figure out my next steps after university, but I still love keeping myself busy! During the week I spend my time going to the gym, attending networking events and working on my own ventures . Pet sitting and dog walking fits really nicely into my routine as it gives me another reason to get out of the house while spending time with animals, which I absolutely love. Because my schedule is fairly flexible, I’m happy to work around you and your pet’s routine wherever I can. care for every pet as if they were my own and understand that every animal has their own personality, boundaries and routine. I’ll always follow any instructions you leave, whether that’s feeding times, walks, medication or any little routines that help them feel comfortable. I’m patient when meeting new animals and will always let them get to know me at their own pace. I’m also more than happy to send photos and updates while you’re away!

About: I always had a family dog growing up, the house wouldn’t be the same without a dog or two! I have always helped look after dogs for family and friends and now as I have just completed dog grooming training I am excited to meet yours and provide them with care and love! I currently work in a primary school part time, my young child is now starting full time school and I have quality time spare to spend on your furry friends. I treat their home like it’s my own and care for their animal like they are my own. Attention to detail and being responsible and reliable.
