“Leanne and Kane were brilliant. So friendly and gave great updates. It was so nice not having to worry about my cat while I was away and that was all down to knowing Leanne and Kane were there to take care of everything. Would definitely recommend and will be booking them again”

About: Animal care is second nature to me—I’ve been around dogs since I was 4. Whether it’s a long walk, belly rubs, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I give every pet the same love and attention I give my own. I’m reliable, gentle, and truly passionate about making animals feel safe, happy, and loved. I work from home and run my own graphic design business, which means I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. Whether it’s weekdays, weekends, or last-minute bookings, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I am fully committed to providing a secure and comfortable environment for your furry friend, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with their care. You can rest assured that I will follow all instructions carefully, provide regular updates, and ensure your pet feels safe and loved in my care.
“Moomin was hospitalised 3 days before my holiday and I was very worried about his recovery and/or if he will be stressed with me leaving so soon after his scary experience at the vets, but Isabel has been great at making Moomin feel at ease during my absence and updating me with how he is doing. I am glad to see how relaxed he's been after the sit.”

“Thank you! It was a pleasure meeting you and Purcy seems very relaxed from my short trip away. The pictures and notes really helped me relax while not with him. I will certainly reach out to you again :)”


About: I’ve had dogs all my life, from small breeds to much larger dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities and energy levels.

I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles and companionship while you’re away. I work remotely 3 days a week (Mon-Fri), which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide care and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, so I’ll always be respectful, responsible and attentive. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding, walks, medication if required and your pet’s usual routine.

I also have a cat, giving me experience caring for both dogs and cats and understanding that every pet has different needs, personalities and routines. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I understand the importance of providing pets with care, attention and a safe, loving environment while they are away from their owners. My availability varies, but I will always keep my calendar updated. I can offer flexibility around drop-in visits and pet care, and I understand how important reliability and communication are when trusting someone with your pets. Please feel free to message me to discuss your needs and I’ll always do my best to accommodate where possible. Your pet’s safety, comfort and wellbeing will always be my priority.

I’m happy to follow feeding routines, walk schedules and any specific instructions to keep your pet comfortable and their routine consistent. I believe good communication is important and will always keep owners updated for extra peace of mind.

“Trouble free visits and sent some lovely photos of our dog getting some love while we were away. Daisy was Friendly and kept in touch. Even noted that dog hadn’t eaten much between visits to make sure this was normal which was but appreciate the care. Overall we felt much at ease knowing someone like daisy was visiting! Thanks a lot Daisy!”

About: I am currently a Uni student that loves animals, while I would love to have some, unfortunately I can't, as I am currently living in accommodation, to get around that I decided to try and find some to take care of! :) I have had a few pets ever since I was little, from hamsters, tortoises, birds, dogs and so on. I have taken care of quite a few pets, such as cats, dogs, birds, etc, mostly of these pets were dogs as I am more familiar with dogs and they are my favourite animal. I try my best to spoil the pets, by buying them toys, their favourite snacks and so on. I can do weekends, just contact me to arrange the times as I am usually working. Rest assured that you'll leave your pets in safe hands. I am currently working part time and studying full time, therefore I might need to check my calendar before confirming any bookings, but I am always willing to walking/taking care of your pet(s). Apologies for that! I have experience with many dogs, small, medium and big. I will always make sure that the needs of your pet(s) are fulfilled as well as ensuring a safe environment for them to play/roam around.

About: I've always loved dogs and have hands-on experience caring for two French Bulldogs. Although they have now are back home to my family, caring for them taught me a lot about daily walks, feeding, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and love they need. I'm reliable, patient, and currently have a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of care and companionship for your pet. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I'll treat your dog like one of my own. I live in a pet-friendly area with great places for walks, and I enjoy spending time outdoors. Your dog's safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away. I am home full-time, so I have plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. I can easily adapt to your pet's routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, fresh water, and meals according to their routine. I carefully follow any instructions you provide, including medication, feeding schedules, and special care needs. I treat every pet with kindness and patience and will keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have owned dogs for 10 years and have started my own dog walking, sitting and pop-in visit services company- ‘About with Amie’. I also work as a palliative care nurse part time. I work as a palliative care nurse alongside my dog walking and sitting business. I cover the Havering area. My shifts and availability vary but I aim to be as accommodating as possible. I offer daytime and overnight sitting in owners houses. I like to ensure the animal/s are safe, comfortable and settled in their own surroundings. I am trust worthy and reliable.
About: Since a child I’ve had all kind of pets from fishes, hamsters, birds and rabbits to raising kittens and a puppy. I’ve also had the pleasure of helping out friends and family. There weren’t many years where I did not have an animal in my life!! I am currently working full time, however weekends at anytime and any work day after 5pm I’m capable of pet care, though I can make adjustments if needed as I work from home. As I will be doing mostly walks and sitting at owners home I will ask how your fur baby likes their company and how to best create safety for them.
About: I grew up around cats, I currently have two of my own, with all care dependant on me. I also walk dogs and pet sit during my free time. I know leaving your pet with someone new can be daunting which is why I always treat any animal under my care as my own. I strive to do my best in caring for your pet while you’re away. I aim to be dependable and someone you can trust to leave your pet in their hands. So don’t hesitate to get in touch:) I am currently in university so pet care is a very ideal option for me, as I still have a lot of availability. I love animals so this is a perfect opportunity. I work part time but I’d love to fit in animal care around my schedule. We can put any safety steps that you would like me to do, into place, whether that involves using crates, keeping windows/doors closed, etc… if your pet is wary of strangers, I’m more than willing to take the time to build trust with them.
“Yasmina took brilliant care of our miniature yorkie puppy. She sent detailed and reassuring information to us after each visit. We cannot thank her enough for looking after our baby boy so well. We will definitely use Yasmina’s services again in the near future.?”

About: We’ve recently moved to the area but don't have pets with us yet and miss their company! In our family home, we have three rescue cats (one three-legged) and two rescue rabbits. Between us we have previously owned dogs of various breeds, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish and hamsters We have a genuine love of animals and take great pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply being a calm presence, we always treat pets as part of the family. With over 15 years’ experience, we regularly pet sit for family and through TrustedHousesitters, looking after cats and dogs in their owners’ homes (see reviews in photos). We’re confident handling nervous rescues and pets with health issues, experienced in administering medication, and passionate about giving animals a safe, trusted, and loving environment. Please drop us a message if you have any questions. Pet sitting fits perfectly with my flexible remote work, allowing me to care for pets during days, long weekends, or quick visits around my schedule. I prioritise safety, trust, comfort, wellbeing, and happiness. Prefer caring for pets in their owner’s home due to space, but happy to adapt if needed.

It’s never easy leaving g your pets with a stranger but Amy was reassuring from the moment we met her. She clearly is a natural with cats as our two girls are both cautious with strangers but in the few days she was caring for them she had made friends with them both. She followed all instructions and spent plenty of time with the cats themselves. We received regular updates and photos which was lovely to know how they were doing while we were away. Amy would certainly be my first choice to look after our cats when looking to go away again.

Cheuk Lee was very attentive to Gandalf, checking daily if he was using the litter as he should. He had blood in his urine once and she kept investigating it everyday! That made me stay at ease as I knew he was in good hands. Communication was spot on too with plenty of pictures. Someone you can trust and I recommend.

Kate has helped us a few times now and we will continue to use her anytime we need a sitter. She’s always thorough before the visits, checking diets and routines. Bella loves her visits and we love the photo updates that we get. We know our cat is in safe hands and would recommend Kate to anyone (as long as it means she can still visit us!)
Tori was an excellent cat sitter! She came by to meet my cat in advance and so I could show her around my flat/talk about my cat's routines. While I was away, I got plenty of photos from Tori after each visit. Great communication when she had questions come up during her cat sitting. I'd definitely recommend Tori!
Georgina is brilliant. Reliable and conscientious and the cats loved her. She is totally engaged in looking after her charges and goes the extra mile to provide a fantastic service. We will be using her services again and cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone who needs someone to look after their 'children' whilst they are away. Thank you Georgina.

Dora is warm and super professional – you can tell straight away she knows what she’s doing and has lots of experience. My cat Luna usually only rolls around on the carpet for me (it’s her little way of showing trust), and I’ve never seen her do that with someone new before! But she warmed up to Dora almost instantly – a true cat whisperer. I’m so happy with the care Dora gave, and she was really flexible with my plans too. Highly recommend!
