House Sitting Tower Hamlets

About: Hey I’m Leanne, and I’ve spent the last two years looking after dogs of many breeds and sizes. I offer a safe, reliable home for your pup to stay in while you’re away, whether it’s for a quick overnight stay or a few weeks holiday. I’m also free for daily walks while I wfh, as well as longer walks at the weekend. I’m known among my mates for being the person to leave their pets with and I’m the first person they call when they need a sitter they can trust! I’m currently working from home 2-3 days per week and can have your dog to stay over then. If nearby, (Hackney E5) I’m also here on weekdays to support with daily dog walking. I’m available at weekends for longer walks which I love! I can have your dog for overnight stays, alongside weekend stays and longer holiday breaks. I provide a safe, calm environment in my home, ensuring all floors are clear of hazards or anything a curious pup might try to chew. Since I don't have a garden, I prioritise multiple outdoor walks and breaks throughout the day. Your dog will never be left unsupervised, and I’m happy to follow any specific feeding routines to make them feel right at home.

About: Hi, I am Iliana, I am an artist and an office admin but my real obsession in life has always been animals. I grew up with a lot of them around and as long as I remember myself I always had a cat. I simply adore them and I am very good with them (especially to make them trust me and warm up to me quickly). So in any case if I could combine doing something I love so much with a bit of money benefit sounds like a no brainer.

About: I have one cat of my own and had another cat in the past, and have looked after friends' cats before. I volunteer at a city farm so am familiar with looking after other animals too. I'm based in the Stepney/Bethnal Green area but can travel to other places in London.

“Molly is fab! She watched Monty for a day while I was in the office and I immediately knew he was in good hands, he took to her right away. She kept me well updated throughout the day, and was great with keeping Mont’s routine (and listened to all of his little cues throughout the day). I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have had dogs as family pets for years, ranging from small dogs like a shitzu to a big labrador. I can't have a pet in my current house but love being around them. My roomate did rover and it was wonderful having the dogs over. I have more experience with dogs than cats but I have cat sat 4 cats for my friend at their home whilst they were on holiday. I have a very flexible job that allows work from home as well as flexible hours so I can accommodate late nights and early visits. I have a fenced in garden at my home as well as a large living space. The floors are hard wood so clean up of any issues would be easy! I am happy to travel across London.

About: Please include your postcode when making an enquiry so that I can see your approximate location. I’m a pet lover and work freelance from home, so I can easily be flexible with visit times to suit your needs and those of your pet. Part of my freelance work involves property inspection for clients, so I am familiar with accessing properties, securing them after my visit and holding/looking after keys. I grew up with cats living at home, and have had several of my own in a previous flat, so I am experienced in caring for both indoor cats and those with access to the outside. I’ve also recently started dog walking and home visits for dogs. I’m based just south of the River Thames, in London SE16, so my local areas are Rotherhithe, Shad Thames, Surrey Quays and parts of Bermondsey. I’m more than happy to consider sitting requests outside of my local area (e.g. Wapping, Limehouse, Old Kent Rd and further afield) although these are likely to involve additional fees (to cover transport costs and/or extra travelling time). This is dependent on where you are based and the logistics involved in getting there. I have a bike, car and easy access to London Overground. My work is home‑based, so I’m able to offer flexible visit times throughout the day. This lets me keep to your cat’s normal routine and provide dependable care. I care for pets in their own home so they stay relaxed and secure. I follow feeding, litter and medication routines exactly, and I’m also happy to offer safe, structured dog walks when needed.

“Maria was lovely with our rescue dog. Very attentive, offered to come a bit earlier due to an early start our side, lots of photos and updates. We will absolutely use Maria again!”

“Aldijana was brilliant with our whippet. So very friendly and experienced with animals. Our dog warmed to Aldijana straight away and I could see from the photo updates what a fun day they had together! Our dog is often very shy with new people but not with Aldijana and wanted to play with her. Aldijana was early - which for an 8am start was very impressive! I had regular updates throughout the day which were lovely! Thank you so much, we will definitely be booking regularly with you!”

“Anna took great care of Ludo during our travels over the holidays. She left the house in great shape and even gave him a bath, so he was fresh and clean upon our return!”

“Riyaa absolutely loves dogs and it's clear that they are very comfortable around her. My dog Bayley can be very nervous with new people, but she soon warmed to Riyaa. I will certainly be using her more regularly.”

About: My dog is part of the family so I understand how precious your pets are too you. I would treat them how I treat my own pets with lots of love and attention. I work full time in a school. I have the summer holidays available to look after your furry friends. I am also available some weekends in term time or taking care of cats before and after work. Please get in touch as I may be able to help even if my calendar is saying busy as it depends what is required. I live in a flat on my own with my dachshund Gregg. I dont have a garden but I am very nearby to a lot of parks and gardens.My dog gets on well with most other dogs and I have had other dogs to stay along with Gregg. He especially loves other dachshunds.

“Sofia was a fantastic sitter who helped me put very last minute and was just perfect! Couldn't have asked for better. Sofia is a very knowledgeable and diligent sitter who clearly cares a lot for the animals in her life. She is smart, kind, communicative and has great attention to detail. I found her incredibly trustworthy and was thankful for the regular updates she gave me throughout the day. I'd be delighted to have her sit our nervous rescue dog Charlie any time and would highly recommend her!”

“Max was really great with our reactive dog, from the pre meet up and taking the advice we gave him on her ‘querks’. He gave regular updates and I can tell really loves dogs! House spotless too. Would happily recommend and have Max take care of Peggy again :)”
