“Melissa is EXCELLENT. This was the first time we used Melissa to look after Olive. She was super friendly, and professional. Olive settled with her quickly and it was clear she was very comfortable with Melissa who had a lovely way with her. I would not hesitate to recommend Melissa and we will absolutely be using her again!”


About: I have experience with big dogs, having had a Rottweiler, and Huskies, as well as energetic dogs like border collies. I frequently look after a nervous Romanian rescue called Mabel I work from home, so have a lot of time during the day for dog walks, and am always ready to give pats. Having had dogs all my life, I love walking and walk everyday, so bringing a friend would be a bonus! Having had pets, I know that they are always a part of the family.

About: I've taken care of dogs over the year from small dogs to large Alsatian breeds. I live with a large dog at moment and take out and look after every day. I am working remote for work so my time is very flexible and I can work around multiple schedule's.. Happy to travel and do late nights or early mornings. I am very tidy and caring, carry poo bags for cleaning up after your dog which are bio degradable as well. And ensure that the dogs are wiped down if get muddy. Rain or sun doesn't bother me to walk.

About: Hello! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a special soft spot for cats. I grew up with cats and now share my home with my precious babies, Billie and Milo. I have a knack for keeping even the most particular kitties happy and stress-free 😺 I’ve also been walking dogs of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels since I was young, and I’m confident handling everything from bouncy puppies to older, more relaxed dogs. Whether your pet needs a cuddle, a good walk, or someone to keep them company while you're away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for - and I’m here to give you peace of mind (and plenty of photo updates too!). Let’s make your pet’s day a little more tail-wagging and purr-filled!🐾 I currently work full-time, so I am available on weekday mornings and evenings, and all day at the weekends. I also regularly work from home, so I can be available for lunchtime feeds, walks and playtime as needed! I know how much we miss our pets when we're away, so I promise to capture every adorable moment and flood your phone with photos and videos! Every pet has their own unique requirements - whether it's a special diet, medication, or simply indulging a quirky habit or making sure they get their favourite treat. I will always follow every rule to the letter, to make sure they stay safe, as well as loved, entertained and stimulated. Safety is my top priority at all times, so you have absolute peace of mind whenever your babies are in my care.

About: Hi! I’m a 3rd-year Veterinary Medicine student at the University of Bristol with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even farm animals. I recently spent a month volunteering at a rescue shelter in Thailand, where I helped with feeding, medical care, and daily enrichment for over 100 dogs. I was able to manage and treat dogs with various different temperaments, so am I am very confident handling all dogs! I also have a 3-year-old (very energetic) Cockapoo of my own, so I understand how much love and attention our pets need. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just keeping your pet happy and safe while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own! I am currently on my summer holidays, with very little plans right now. This means I am available to take care of your furry friends' needs, whenever they may be! Pet safety and comfort are always my top priorities.I create a calm, secure environment where they feel at ease. I will make sure to ask all appropriate questions, to ensure the safety of your pet, as well as ensuring you feel most comfortable when away. I follow any instructions closely, from feeding and medication schedules to walk routines and house rules. As a vet student, I’m confident handling pets of all temperaments and spotting signs of stress or discomfort early.

“Saras was great to deal with and asked lots of good questions regarding our dog (Ally) and kept us fully informed throughout the day. This was the first time Ally had been left with anyone and very happy with how Saras both worked with Ally to make her comfortable and looked after her.”


“Jess has been brilliant and kept me updated with pictures and videos. She was very thorough, caring, and kind and I felt more than comfortable leaving Kimba with her and will be doing again! Thanks Jess!”


“Dani came and stayed at our house for a week to look after Ronnie our Weimarana whilst we were on holiday. Communication with her prior to the stay was easy and all the arrangements went according to plan. Ronnie loved her and we had no worries about things whilst we were away. Dani kept us up to date with how things were going and sent us photos of one very happy dog. I'm not sure he'd even realised we'd gone away! Dani left the house in excellent shape and even washed the sheets and towels ready for our return. I will happily have Dani stay again.”

About: I've always had cats in my family, and currently have a gorgeous tuxedo cat of my own. I have a love for all animals, but particularly love cats. I'd love to support you and your cat by offering litter cleaning, feeding, and lots of attention. I love to be around cats for cuddles and playtime, or if they're more of an independent cat I'm happy to spend time around them for some more distanced companionship. I work from home and my job is quite flexible. I also drive and ride a bike, so I can easily get to any local areas at a range of times during the day. I may have plans on the weekend, so if you require weekend visits please contact me in advance and I'll check my calendar, but during the week is easy for me. I will follow any instructions required to ensure your pet and your home are in safe hands. Being a cat and a home owner myself, I know how important safety is and I can attest to be fully reliable. I would love to share photos and updates with you around your pet so you can be sure they're happy and looked after. I live in a home with a fully fenced garden and have a house cat of my own, so if you would prefer yours didn't go outside that's not a problem. I also have a spare room, with lots of cat toys in case your cat might need some settling in time to their new environment, or for younger kittens.

About: Like many people, I've always loved animals. My family have always had lots of animals so I've grown up around all sorts. Dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, Hamsters, Rabbits, Birds.

I've volunteered at multiple animal rescues; my favourite being working in Thailand; helping and caring for the many stray dogs in the village where we stayed. I just love dogs so much. Since moving out of my family home, I miss our grumpy dog a lot and would love to meet and take care of new dogs! I currently work full time; 9-5. My days off are Monday and Sunday so I'm available all day then for visits or walks. Then after 5 Tues-Fri and after 4 on Saturday. If you live in the Urmston/Sale area I can also be available for early morning walkies before work. Currently I only live in a flat, so I can't offer home care of my own. But I can come to your home and take care of your doggie there. I am responsible and dilligent, promising my upmost to take care of your furry friend and your home to my highest ability.

From the start, she took the time to get to know our cat’s routine and personality, which really helped put us at ease while we were away.

Olivia R.
“I've had Liv care for my cats (Nico and Yuki) and my guinea pig (pumpkin) on numerous occasions when i've been away on business trips, Yuki, who's normally really skittish around people, took to her immediately flopping over for tummy rubs and Nico sounds like a lawnmower because he purrs so much when she's about! On top of that i've asked her to walk a family members dog when he's staying with me and Billy the Pug is thrilled at all the attention he gets and Liv is excellent at knowing when let him take breaks (he's only got little legs) and is always prepared with water and treats in case of hydration or snack related emergencies!”


Gabriel S.
“Gabriel dog sitted for me when I had to go on holiday and my dog is very temperamental, in the fact that he has a lot of energy. But Gabriel was brilliant in handling him and his mischievous moments. He was always fed on time and was taken for walks twice a day. He also gave my dog so much attention and love that I was convinced I'd lost him. In short, I wouldn't recommend anyone else to look after my baby and wouldn't trust anyone else to.”
