About: *** Day Care spaces available on Wednesday and Friday from 1st September - please contact me for further information £25 per day (up to 12 hours), either regular slots or just one off days *** I offer a home from home for your dogs stay. If your dog stays with me, I will follow your routines and feeding plans and give them a lovely holiday in a happy, safe and loving environment. They will have regular exercise and playtime. I always like to arrange a ‘meet and greet’ with your dog so that we can get to know each other and so that your dog can become familiar with my home. I have 2 fur babies of my own, a small and medium sized dogs who are friendly and love to have doggy friends come to stay. I am a dog lover, who has had dogs both as a child and as an adult, so has lots of experience. I look after small to medium sized dogs and I accept dogs of any age, young or senior and am based in Hornchurch, Essex. I am insured, DBS Checked and hold a Pet Sitting & Dog Walking Diploma I work from home, part time, doing Accounts so looking after the dogs just fits in with my day. I would not be leaving the dogs for any length of time. I have a fenced in garden which allows the dogs the space and freedom to play. I live close to the park and fields for walking the dogs (if owner allows).
“Maria and her husband did an amazing job looking after Molly. Molly was made to feel at home and got multiple walks. Updates very plentiful throughout the day and I would highly recommend Maria for pet sitting!”
“Laura is absolutely amazing!! I could not fault her at all. The most sweetest, kindest person I’ve ever met who did an outstanding job and looking after Whiskey. She made sure she contacted me and sent me lots of pictures and videos. I will be using her again in the future for sure”
“My first time using Rover and upon first contact, Sayo was very responsive which was helpful and made the whole process very smooth. Sayo was a brilliant carer and very understanding about my dog's nervous accidents he had during the first night. He sent videos and photos and kept me updated at all times. I also had to extend the booking for several hours on the morning of the pick-up and Sayo was very accommodating. I will certainly be using him again.”
“Honestly Rachael is super professional when it comes to looking after my dog. I can’t praise her enough, I don’t even need to think about how he might be as I know she loves my dog as much as I do. Highly recommend”
“Daria took care of our little dog over Easter. She was fantastic! Daria sent regular videos and photographs to let us know he was doing well - he came home very happy. Wouldn’t hesitate to leave him with her again!”
“Elisa was fantastic. We trusted her with our beloved Twix whilst we were away on holiday. She sent regular updates and pictures. We could tell from the pictures Twix was having a great time and being looked after. Daily walks and plenty of activity with Elsie’s own dog. We’re really pleased we went with Elisa and the service she’s provided. Would recommend and use again.”
“Monica took wonderful care of my dog, Tia, while I was away on holiday. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind. Tia was very happy, well looked after, and clearly received lots of love and attention. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Monica to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you so much Monica for taking such great care of Tia!”
“Five stars isn’t enough for Charlie and Gary! They looked after Lola, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the start, they were incredibly attentive, asked lots of questions at the meet and greet, and then followed Lola's care instructions. We were so grateful for the frequent photo updates, it really put our minds at ease seeing her so happy and settled while we were away. Lola had a blast on all her lovely walks, and the best part was seeing her bond with their dog, Jenny. By the time we picked her up, they were buddies! It’s such a relief to find sitters who truly treat your pup like family (and let's her snuggle on the sofa!) We would recommend Charlie and Gary in a heartbeat and will definitely be booking with them again in the future. Thanks again, guys!”
About: I’ve always had a love for dogs and plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. A few years ago, I spent a couple of years dog sitting, looking after dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which helped me build confidence and understanding in their individual needs. Alongside this, I’ve had family dogs for over 12 years, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my everyday life. From feeding routines and walks to playtime, companionship, and understanding their behaviour, I’m experienced in providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment for every dog in my care. At Lisa’s Dog Care, I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and truly at home. Lisa’s Dog Care is my full-time commitment, allowing me to provide dedicated, hands-on care throughout the entire day. My routine is fully centred around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive constant attention, supervision, and companionship. Each day begins with morning routines including feeding, walks, and playtime, setting a calm and happy tone. Throughout the day, I am always present, providing one-to-one attention, regular exercise, and plenty of interaction, adapting to each dog’s individual needs and routine. Afternoons and evenings continue with walks, feeding, and relaxation time, making sure every dog feels comfortable and settled. For overnight stays, I am on hand at all times to ensure dogs feel safe, secure, and truly at home. As this is my full-time role, dogs are never left unattended, and their wellbeing, happiness, and safety are always my top priority. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities at Lisa’s Dog Care. I provide a secure, fully fenced garden where dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air safely at all times. Inside, dogs are cared for in a calm, home-from-home setting where they can relax and feel comfortable. I carefully manage introductions and interactions to ensure all dogs get along happily. I also have my friendly Chow Chow, BooBooBear, who loves the company of other dogs and helps create a welcoming, social environment for your fur baby. Whether your dog enjoys playtime or prefers a quieter companion, I make sure every dog feels safe, settled, and cared for like part of the family.
“Christmas is such a busy and all-consuming time of year for so many, but Kevin & his family were very accommodating when looking after my beloved and bouncy border collie Heidi over the build up to this Christmas. He made every step of the process seamless. My dog was made feel so welcome, loved and cared for during her stay with Kevin and his family. She became part of their family unit for her stay! They provided the utmost care and attention, ensuring her care and playing needs were all met 🎾 Kevin provided regular communication & photo/video updates throughout Heidi’s time with his family. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you once again Kevin!”
“2nd sleepover with Ashley & Layla couldn't have been more excited. Practically dragged me to Ashley's door & squealed until she let us in. Layla may not be able to talk but she made it clear how wonderful shw thinks Ahsley is and this makes me happy knowing that she is having a great time. Ashley always sends updates and doors on Layla nearly as much as I do. I cant recommend Ashley enough and if I cod wod give more stars 💯”
“Izabella was absolutely wonderful with our little boy. She showered him with love and cuddles, kept him thoroughly entertained, and her communication throughout was excellent, we received constant updates and photos. We would wholeheartedly recommend her.”
“We were quite nervous about leaving Boo for the first time with a family we didn’t know however Vanessa was very reassuring. Vanessa spoke in a very calming way around Boo and Boo appeared comfortable straight away. I felt confident when leaving Boo with Vanessa and she sent me a lovely little video showing me Boo playing and having fun, which was lovely. When I collected Boo, Vanessa and her husband expressed how much they and their daughter had enjoyed looking Boo and I could see Boo had had a great time too!I I would definitely use Vanessa again and would highly recommend her.”

Our dog, Dahlia, stayed with Emily for 10 days and 9 nights while we are on holiday. This was the first time that Dahlia had spent time away from our family. Emily and her family did all that they could to help us to prepare for the stay and Dahlia had an amazing time while she was there. We consistently received updates and pictures which helped to put our minds at ease. Dahlia was well looked after and enjoyed being with Emily and her dog. We will definitely use Emily in the future when we need dog sitting. Thank you, Emily!
Trisha W. looked after my dog Tia from 26/06/2026 to 28/06/2026, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Tia was a bit anxious at first, but Trisha managed her so well and made her feel comfortable and settled. Trisha was kind, responsible, and gave Tia lots of love and attention. I felt very comfortable knowing Tia was in such good hands. Thank you, Trisha, for taking such great care of Tia. I would happily recommend you and would love for Tia to stay with you again in the future
Maria and her husband were brilliant with my nervous 10 year old dog. They were patient, kind and took on board her feeding schedule with no problems. Maria was always polite, friendly and reliable. She gave us updates during the stay including photos. We will definitely be using her again.
We booked a short 4-day stay and are very happy with the care our dog received. We were sent daily photos or videos, along with regular updates, which gave us great peace of mind. It was especially lovely to see pictures of the cuddles and walks. Our small dog requires a lot of attention, particularly when it comes to feeding, and it was clear that her individual needs were understood and cared for well. Thank you for looking after our little baby with such kindness, attention, and care. We would not hesitate to book again.
Rolo had the best time with Nicole we received daily updates along with photo's which helped as this was the first time he had boarded away from us. I spoke to Nicole a couple of times and she made me feel at ease. I would definately use Nicole again in the future and would recommend her as well. Thank you Nicole x
Lola had a great time staying with Jack and Otis! He looked after her through the heatwave and kept her nice and calm. We loved the videos of Lola playing with Otis - and seeing her adventures in the creek. We will be sure to have Jack care for Lola next time we are away. Thank you!
My French Bulldog Stella, stayed overnight with Sarah and her husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sarah was so lovely, really flexible, and clearly brilliant with dogs. Stella settled in straight away and when I picked her up she looked completely relaxed and at home, which was really reassuring. Sarah kept me updated while Stella was there which I really appreciated, and it was clear Stella was being really well looked after. I’d definitely recommend Sarah and will 100% book Stella in again.
Well I can’t put it into words how well looked after our little Hope was!!!! We have contacted Marisa last minute to enquire about her availability and we were lucky enough to be accepted. Our miniature poodle was spoiled with love, cuddles and socialising (not sure we can keep up with Marisa) and we received lots of updates. As a dog owner you can tell when your dog enjoys their time with the dog sitter and we are more than happy about the choice we made with Marisa. Thank you! ❤️🐕🐾🐶
Emily and her family were fantastic! Whilst I was away Emily sent photos and videos where Woody looked settled, comfortable and was enjoying his stay. Emily’s communication was fantastic at all points. On a cold walk Emily had made sure Woody had a jumper on (after I forgot to pack one) which assured me he was being looked after incredibly well. I would highly recommend Emily and would definitely be booking with her again.
Our Swiss Shepherd Lancelot had a fabulous stay with Sarah. We received lots of pictures and were kept updated with how we was doing. He's rarely away from us so we were a bit nervous about how he'd get on in a different environment but he had a brilliant time and was very well looked after. Plus he made a buddy for life in her dog Obi!
Poor Terrance is getting a bit old and needy, Marianna and her family were so kind and patient with him. She kept me up to date with photos and messages and I felt happy he was in good hands. Would happily book with her again if she will have him. Thank you Marianna.
Katie looked after Freya while mum & dad got married for 2 nights 😁 Katie was extremely attentive as usual, took freya on lots of walks and she was so chilled when she came home. Thank you Katie for putting our mind at ease while we were so busy, she even sent us a cute photo collage of Freya to say congratulations the day after! Definitely our most trusted sitter. Can't wait to see Katie again!
