“Booked Harry for daily visits to care for my cat, Robin, over the past two weeks. Robin was healthy and doing well when I returned, which is the most important thing. Communication was generally smooth, and the visits covered the essentials. I was surprised that Harry updated photos almost every visit. When I got home, Robin was especially affectionate and eager for attention. He may simply have missed me, but overall, he seems to be doing fine. Overall, a positive experience for this booking.”
“Melissa dropped by a few days before looking after Rory, our cat, and was really lovely and friendly. She visited and fed Rory everyday at the time we requested, and even did an extra visit in the hot weather to check he was ok. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I have experience caring for pets for friends and family, including feeding, walking, and spending quality time with dogs and cats. I am patient, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has a different personality, and I take the time to adjust to their needs. I’m currently unemployed, and ready to go to university in September, I am free for every day if can fit my schedule, I got my driving license a few weeks ago. I have pet a small dog at home, and can play with any dogs as expected, if have any special needs, I will try my best to get them done.
“Saras was absolutely fantastic with our little Lola, she’s made a friend for life there! We received great updates and had full confidence in Sara. We’d absolutely book her to look after Lola again”
About: I have had 2 years plus experience working with and caring for all animals! Both cats and dogs as well as reptiles and rodents :) I currently work as a freelance photographer so I have a fair bit of time during the week available to play with and look after your pets! I have several of my own and have a very flexible schedule! I volunteer at a rescue 3:30-6pm on a Wednesday so that time on a Wednesday is unavailable. Most days of the week I can be flexible. I will happily look after your pet with any instructions you may want to give me. My pup has her own routine most of the time and I know a lot of people are the same and I will be more than happy to stick to that should owners want that. I have a pup who I’m more than happy to introduce with permission if that’s something you’d want. Should your pup be looked after at my house, I have a secure garden with space to run around, with a back and patio door so easy access to come back in for food/water. I have plenty of toys/balls as well and knowledge of a lot of local parks for more interesting/stimulating walks.
About: I’ve been around different kinds of dogs all my life. My sister has a dog called Nala who I look after while she’s out or on holidays. Love to make dogs feel happy and loved. My main priority is keeping your dogs safe and well looked after I have looked a variety of dogs and I always cater for their needs and take them on lovely walks. I’m currently working part time remotely from home but I can fit my work around looking after pets. I can pet sit in my home. I don’t have any other pets. It’s just myself and my daughter who loves having the dogs. I have a fenced with a gate front garden. I have a ginnel with my neighbour with a locked gate with a key which leads to my back garden which is fenced and has a locked gate. Plenty of space and very safe so they can be inside or out. I can leave my back door open for the dogs to come inside and out. I have quite an open downstairs so the dogs have room to venture around.
“Gareth has been so patient with my new rescue pocket bully Dooley who has the strength of a buffalo but the confidence of a mouse! He's not minded him nervous weeing all over the floor (and cleaned it up!) and taking it at Dooleys pace (a slow waddle). 🐌 adapting how he greets him in response, which has already made a difference! He has been flexible and even came to check-in on a day he no longer needed to, a visit which increased my confidence massively in Dooleys progress with new people! Gareth is great and would definately recommend him 😊”
“Mairead did some drop ins for my elderly dog Bernie while we were away for the weekend. She was very easy to communicate with and provided me with thorough updates on all the drop ins. She clearly has a deep love for dogs which shows in how she interacts and talks about them. Bernie was content when we returned and I would definitely use her again in the future.”
“Adam was a great sitter! I’d highly recommend him- very kind, communicative, and was amazing with Vader. He dealt with the mischief with grace and we will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Yoyo is amazing. Very kind, polite and caring, updates me with photos and knows well how to look after kitties. She is also flexible and understanding. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life - from my first family dog growing up to my soul dog, Lucy, who me and my boyfriend, Joe, have now! We’ve always been happy to take care of other dogs no matter their age or size. This means we’ve had experience with 2 puppies, right up until caring for a senior dog who had multiple illnesses and required medications and extra loving. I’m work from home Monday-Fri, and Joe works fairly flexibly so there is usually at least one of us at home. We have our own dog so she is always built into our plans and we often like to take day trips out in our campervan to give Lucy a fab day out. We have a safe, enclosed garden with plenty of room to run about and our living room door backs onto this so we can always keep an eye on pups playing outside. Lucy isn’t crate trained but we’d be happy to accommodate a crate if provided.
About: We’ve always grown up with dogs, and since moving out of my family home into out own home 2 years ago, it doesn’t feel like a home without dogs around! We love having my family Labrador to stay when we can and the rest of the time we would love to open our home to your dogs. My partner Joe and I have dog sitted part time together for 4 years now and have enjoyed looking after a variety of dogs from dachshunds to golden doodles and labradors! We would love to look after your dog & enjoy their company in our home or help you with dog walks while you are out. We are currently available most evenings and weekends for dog sitting or walking. We are able happy to meet yours and your dogs needs from walking to dog sitting, and we also drive so are able to pick up your dogs or come to you for visits or walks. We do like to go to the gym daily so we are looking for dogs that are happy to be left alone for a few hours. We will happily open our home to your dogs while you are away. We are happy to be flexible depending on the dogs needs and energy levels, we are always up for a long walk or hike or can take a stroll down to the local park for lower energy or older dogs.
“Darcy was amazing. Came round and met our dog ahead of the visit which was great.She dropped in on him whilst we were out and looked after him amazingly. Loved to see the photos she provided of him having fun with the ball. Highly recommend and will be booking again in the future .”
About: I have lived with dogs most my life, I am awaiting my own home where I would sit at my house but currently can offer sitting at your home whilst that goes through . I am missing having a furry companion around , and have quite Al of free time . I am working shifts and have free time around my working days . I work as a nurse and can have quite a few days off in a row I can offer at your home or walking currently as I am awaiting a house sale , I have a car and can travel to your home
About: My name is Heather, I’m 31 years old and live in Stretford Manchester. I have had dogs all my life and been around many different breeds of dog including German shepherds, border collies & huskies. I believe that dogs are truly a person’s best friend as my dogs are definitely mine and I understand leaving them on their own when at work or on holiday can be at times upsetting and put a damper on things as you wish you could take them with you, but rest assured they will be happy & safe with me and I will send you regular updates to tell you how they are throughout our time together, I also have experience with dogs who require medication and a more gentle relaxed way of life. Whether they need a lot of exercise or they would just like some company I’m happy to give them whatever they require. I also believe that dogs are happiest when I’m familiar surroundings so if you require someone to stay at your house I will be more than willing to answer any & all questions before you commit to anything i’m also happy to meet you and your dog(s) before hand as I believe trust is the most important thing. I also have experience of giving medication whether as a tablet or with a syringe I am very flexible with my time whether it’s a 30 minute work or a day I’m happy to fit around your schedule I have a fenced back garden that is 6 feet high but am unable to have other dogs in my home as I have a husky who while friendly with other dogs, feels more comfortable being the only dog in the house. I am happy to house sits at your place if you should wish during the day

Christine was great!!! She took such good care of our cats whilst we were away and provided the best updates after each visit so we knew the girls were happy and what they had been up to! Highly recommend and will definitely be using Christine again if we are away!
Michelle was fantastic! A great communicator who left us very reassured that our cat was taken care of while we were away. Our usually timid and anxious cat quickly took to her and came out of her hiding places for pets and cuddles with Michelle. She sent us lots of updates and photos, and went above and beyond! Thank you!
Lesley is wonderful! She looked after my cats for a little over a week and has such a magic touch that she won over even my very shy and anxious scaredy cat (who has been known to live in a cupboard and wail when I'm not around!). Both cats were very well looked after, snuggled, and played with while I was away. Regular updates and pictures made me smile, and they were both very relaxed and content when I came home. I can't thank Lesley enough and I hope she'll agree to look after the girls again in future.
Molly was absolutely fantastic looking after our cat, Noodle, while we were away for a week in Italy. From the very first visit she kept us updated with detailed messages, photos and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious how much time and care she spent with him, not just feeding him but playing with him, brushing him, giving him lots of attention and really getting to know his little personality and routines. Molly was incredibly attentive and proactive throughout the booking. She noticed changes in his eating habits during the hot weather, kept an eye on him when he was sick one evening, cleaned everything up, and continued to monitor him closely afterwards. She also kindly watered our plants, brought in our post, and even went out of her way to drop a key off to our cleaners when we realised we’d forgotten to arrange it before leaving. We came home to a very happy, relaxed cat, which says everything about the quality of care he received. Noodle clearly adored her, and we felt completely reassured throughout our holiday knowing he was in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Molly and will absolutely be booking her again in the future. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy!
Sam was simply amazing! We had constant contact throughout our trip, with lots of videos and updates that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She was extremely helpful, reliable, and took great care of our cats. They bonded with her very quickly, which was lovely to see. We came home to happy, well-looked-after cats and couldn't have asked for a better sitter. I would definitely recommend Sam!
Sally looked after our cat Gertie whilst we were away on a short break. She did an excellent job and sent an update following each visit, which was much appreciated. This was the first time we had used a cat sitter rather than a cattery and we could not have been more pleased with the service and care Sally provided.
Luan is truly wonderful and highly recommended. She genuinely loves cats and took great care of my two senior cats with patience and attention. She didn’t just handle the basics, but also spent time interacting and bonding with them. My cats felt comfortable and relaxed with her. Very reliable and caring—would definitely recommend!
Booked Harry for daily visits to care for my cat, Robin, over the past two weeks. Robin was healthy and doing well when I returned, which is the most important thing. Communication was generally smooth, and the visits covered the essentials. I was surprised that Harry updated photos almost every visit. When I got home, Robin was especially affectionate and eager for attention. He may simply have missed me, but overall, he seems to be doing fine. Overall, a positive experience for this booking.
Absolutely outstanding, Sophia was fantastic with our cat and was a great help in the house too. Floria warmed to her immediately and Sophia made our trip away so much easier knowing Floria was in good hands. We are a repeat client with Sophia and highly recommend her. Thank you so much for everything, Christina, Floria and family x x x ❤️
Melissa is a very kind person and is aware of the needs of senior cats, and she is very gentle with them. She was very supportive to take care of our sick cat. Melissa comes with alternative solutions to make things easier for our cat in need, she is very helpful and friendly. It was great meeting with you, Melissa: Thank you very much for giving us the comfort we needed so that we could pay our full attention to make Muffin feel better in her final days.
Lisa was amazing and my fur-babies seemed very comfortable with her coming to visit every day. I think they were disappointed when we came home! Lisa came twice a day to feed and give cuddles. She did us updates everyday, with some photos, which was very reassuring. Would definitely recommend and would have Lisa back anytime. Thanks Lisa!!
