Top-rated Trafford dog sitters

“Michael was amazing with our border terrier. We received lots of pictures and updates while we were away. Communication was great before, during, and after our trip. It was clear that our dog was comfortable and well taken care of. We will not hesitate to use Michael’s services again.”


“This is Frank’s second stay with Neda and her family now and I’d definitely use them again! He was so excited to go in when we arrived, I was kept updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay and it looked like he was having a great time! Thank you Neda 😊”


“From the offset, I knew our dog, Teddy, was going to be happy with Rebecca whilst we were on holiday. On our meet and greet, he ran straight into her house with no hesitation and had a little play in the garden etc. Rebecca was great at sending regular updates, with photos and videos, but at the same time didn’t bombard us every day. We’ll definitely send Ted to Rebecca again, he’s been really calm and settled since we got back, something which usually takes him several days to do😊”


“Winnie has stayed with Liza and her family for a third time. As ever Liza’s care for Winnie was first class. I would not let my dog stay anywhere else.”


“Michalis and his partner were absolutely amazing with our pooch, Busby. They sent regular updates and pictures and gave him plenty of exercise. Thanks so much guys!!!”


“Zof and Nico were great! Nacho had a great time with them. They were super communicative and very flexible when we had a change in date and pickup time. We’d definitely book with them again.”


“Zeus had a great time with Rebecca and Kyle. We felt completely reassured and couldn’t ask for anything more. Thank you for taking such good care of him 😊”


“Jenna was very helpful, sent lots of pics, Leo seemed to really enjoy himself.”


About: We are a family of dog lovers, and will care for your dog as if it’s part of our family. We allow your dog to lay on our sofa, freely wander in and out of our good sized back garden, and have as many snuggles and pets as they want. We have many beautiful walks on our doorstep including the Pennine trail, Manchester Canal and Dunham Massey to name a few, so your dog will have variety in their walks with us. I work from home three days a week, and my husband has flexibility and is able to come home twice a day to take care of your dog when I’m in the office. He is home by 3pm most days, so your dog will never be alone for long on those two days a week. We follow your dogs usual feeding routine, and will walk your dog a minimum of twice a day with at least an hour of outdoor exercise. They will have free access to our good-sized back garden throughout the day, and tug-of-war and fetch are regular games played at home!

“Meghan was amazing with Max, he came back very happy a contact after a week away. We met up before hand to go over any questions about Max and we were given a few updates though out our holiday. I would highly recommend Meghan”


“I can't recommend Heather enough as a dog sitter! From the moment I first reached out, she has been nothing short of amazing. She made a point to come to our house to meet our dogs in their own environment, which immediately put us at ease. Our dogs are quite individual and have their own quirks, but Heather took the time to really get to know them, showing so much care and patience. After a negative experience with a previous sitter, Heather was a breath of fresh air. She has been so reassuring throughout the process, and it’s clear she genuinely cares for our dogs. When we picked them up after their first stay, they were happy, healthy, and had clearly had a wonderful time. I also really appreciated the regular updates and adorable photos she sent during their stay, which made us feel even more confident in leaving them in her care. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Heather is the one to go to! Vinnie and Bunny can’t wait for their next stay xx”


“Katie looked after my 2 dogs, she kept us updated throughout our weekend and the dogs had a great time. Thank you so much for taking great care of them”


About: I've looked after dogs and cats for friends and family for a long time - whether they want a long walk or someone to chill with on a lazy day, I'll find out what makes your pet most comfortable so you can rest easy while you're away from them! I currently work full time from home, so I can keep pets company through the day and occasionally take them on weekends too. I work flexible hours so I can take them for walks, toilet breaks etc through the day if required I have a small but cozy flat with plenty of space to welcome a pet. Beds etc will need to be provided as I don't have a pet of my own. I live alone but my girlfriend (cat lover) may be staying too

“Left our lively cockapoo with Harriet last weekend for an evening out. Harriet sent us lots of messages and photos showing our pup having fun and playing and later sleeping which was really lovely and reassuring. We are booking our next visit soon.”


“Brucie had a great holiday with Kam. She kept me updated regularly with photos and he got on great with her 2 dogs. Will definitely use her next time we go away. Thanks so much for looking after him!”


“Sean and Christiaan were the most wonderful hosts to our cocker spaniel, Gatsby. We knew straight away that Gatsby would be taken care off from their warm and welcoming manner. We received daily updates of Gatsby: on walks, playing in the garden, have a peak out the window, bath times, snooze times - the list goes on. It was a real comfort as this was the first time we have done this with Gatsby. They made us feel reassured everyday that Gatsby was safe but also having the most enjoyable time. We can’t thank / recommend Sean and Christiaan enough for the contentment we felt leaving Gatsby with them and their impeccable treatment of him. We will definitely be back with Gatsby again. ☺️❤️”


“Sarah was brilliant with our quiet, needy rescue dog, made her feel at home, got her out for a walk (she will refuse if she's not happy!) - we can't recommend her highly enough.”


“My beagle had a great time and was so well cared for! We were kept up to date with pictures and videos our whole trip 🤍”


“Yangtian took excellent care of our dog Freddy and we would definitely book again! Communication was excellent and we got regular videos of him being taken for walks and being played with which made us feel so much better about leaving him. Every video we got just seemed like Freddy and her dog Oreo were having a great time together which was lovely. Would absolutely recommend!”

The thought and attention he provides in a day of looking after our dog is exceptional, checking with us as to whether the activity level or plans are appropriate for her, and constantly putting her needs first to ensure she is comfortable and happy at all times. My partner and I trust Sam completely as a dog sitter and it shows with the excitement exhibited by our dog whenever we drop her off at his front door.”
