Dog Walking Upminster

“I have used Leanne and Kane twice now and was very happy with their service. When we first met, Monty took to them straight away as they are a very friendly couple. Will definitely continue using them for walkies”

About: Hi, I’m Tori! I’ve proudly run Auntie Toris Pet Sitting Services since 2019, providing reliable, loving care for pets of all shapes and sizes. I previously worked as a Veterinary Care Assistant, so I’m confident with feeding routines, administering medication (including tablets and injections such as insulin), and supporting pets with additional or ongoing needs. Alongside this, I have experience with a wide range of animals and temperaments – from puppies to senior pets, as well as more nervous or sensitive dogs who need a calm and patient approach. I also have cats of my own and regularly foster, including hand-rearing young kittens, so I’m very comfortable caring for more delicate animals too. I’m first aid trained, DBS checked, and fully insured, so you can feel confident your pets are in safe, experienced hands. Most importantly, I treat every animal as if they were my own, giving them the same level of care, attention, and love. Pet care is my full-time routine, not something I fit in around other commitments. I run my own pet sitting business, so my days are structured around the pets in my care – including walks, feeding, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with them to make sure they feel comfortable and settled. I’m home throughout the day for most of the week, which means pets are rarely left alone for long periods and can stick closely to their usual routines. I also keep my schedule organised to ensure each pet gets the time and attention they need, rather than overbooking. Because this is my main focus, I’m flexible and able to adapt to different needs, whether that’s early mornings, evening visits, or more frequent check-ins. I tailor my care to each individual pet to make sure they feel as comfortable and settled as possible. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They have a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention, enrichment, and time to relax. I stick closely to their usual routines for feeding, walks, and sleep, and I always take introductions slowly to ensure everyone is happy and comfortable. When caring for pets in their own home, I aim to keep everything as familiar as possible. I follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medication, so they feel secure in their own environment while you’re away. I have experience with a wide range of needs, from energetic dogs to more nervous or sensitive pets, and I always adapt my approach to suit them. I’m also confident administering medication if required. Throughout every service, I prioritise safety, routine, and lots of love and attention, and I’m happy to provide updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I believe in providing a calm, safe, and loving environment so pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I have looked after family and friend’s pets while they have been away. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play and care for your pets. Working in education allows me to care for your pets around peak holiday time. When looking after family and friends pets, I always make sure that their schedule is followed and that they are always well cared for and loved.

About: I have experience with dogs who are anxious and resource guard so I know how to handle them in the safest way for both of us. I’ve also had two puppies personally that I have looked after and contributed to training so am well versed in younger dogs too. I’m an artist who works from home with occasional work days out so I can fit looking after your pets around my schedule, therefore I am available all week :) I can adapt pet sitting to whatever suits your needs, whether that’s taking them for walks, playing with them or simply checking in and giving them company.

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.

“Thank you for your efforts with Ghost this week. You were very attentive, kept us in the loop, punctual, patient with our doggo, and I know he had a great time. I'm very greatful to have found a solution in you for when we need to all be out and need a sitter/walker for ghost. Overall great experience. Would HIGHLY recommend.”

“Anisha walked our dog Charlie while we went on holiday for 10 days and we couldn't be happier. She was punctual, professional, and great at communication—I always got a detailed update after every walk. It's a huge relief to know Anisha treats our pet like family and I'm happy to have found her. I will definitely book Anisha again. 5 stars fantastic.”

About: Excited to meet you and your companion animals! I've had dogs and cats my whole life, and the company of a furry friend is second to none! The love from a dog is one of the best feelings ever. Unfortunately I am not able to have a dog of my own at the moment, so taking the best care of other people's dogs is the absolute next best thing. I will offer your beloved companion the best care while you are away and will do my hardest to temporarily fill the gap that your absence will leave! I work from home for the majority of the week, and also have the ability to bring a dog into the office if needed. As a result, I have a wide range of availability and will be available at most times to look after your companion animal 😊 It's always important to follow the guidance from the pets human companion. The safety of the furry friend I am looking after will always be my number 1 priority.

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.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets through dog sitting for friends’ dogs overnight, ensuring they’re fed, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’ve also looked after neighbors’ cats, taking responsibility for their feeding and well-being. Additionally, I have experience training my own puppy, which gave me valuable insight into animal behavior and the patience needed to nurture a well-behaved pet. Although my puppy is no longer with us, the skills and love I developed through that experience continue to guide my care for every dog I look after. At 20 years old and full of energy, dog sitting and walking perfectly fit into my cabin crew lifestyle. I usually have 3-4 days off between trips, which gives me the perfect chance to care for your furry friends! After long flights and hectic schedules, spending time with dogs gives me a refreshing boost and helps me stay active. It’s the perfect way to balance my adventurous job with some furry fun and exercise! I care for pets either in my home or in their owner’s home with great attention and respect. When pets stay with me, I create a safe, comfortable space and follow their usual routines for feeding, walking, and play to keep them happy and secure. If I’m caring for them in their own home, I make sure to respect the owner’s space and rules, maintain their daily schedule exactly, and keep the home clean and secure. I also have a big garden where they can run and play freely, giving them plenty of space to burn off energy. I also keep owners updated regularly including pictures and videos so they feel confident their pets are loved and well looked after

“Praveen arrived when he said he would, and was great with Benji. I would thoroughly recommend him, and Benji goes to see him in the future!”

About: Hello, my name is Isabel and I work as a mental health researcher in the NHS. I have always had cats and dogs growing up in my family home, however now I have flown the nest, I miss my little furry friends. Therefore, it would benefit us both for me to look after yours 🐱🐕 I can be flexible to yours and your pets needs. Looking forward to hearing from you and meet your furry friend. I can be flexible to your pets needs. I am happy to visit multiple times a day and prior to booking. Happy to discuss any needs further. Safety and trust is a priority for me and your pets. I always ensure doors are locked after visits and pets are left safe and happy

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life but have taken the past year to become even more knowledgeable with all different kind of dog breeds and my love for them has only grown! Here I can offer you a warm and loving home with a very friendly chocolate lab girl (I can also keep them separate if to your preference) and a place where every dog is allowed on the couch! I work from home and choose my own hours so I can be as available as the pet owner needs me to be as some dogs need more love than others :) I have a fenced spacious garden and surrounding fields for off lead fun (if the dog is trained), also have the company of the most lovable chocolate lab called Nala and lots of fun natural enrichment games!

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: 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: Hey, I’m Maria 👋🏼 I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 5 years old and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I have volunteered with Guide Dogs and have also taken responsibility for caring for my own dogs, as well as family and friends’ pets—always giving them the love and attention they deserve as part of the family 🐶 Friends, family, and neighbours have relied on me to care for their pets, whether that means daily walks, playtime, or making sure they feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I treat each one with patience, care, and of course, plenty of cuddles & affection 🐾 My husband & I recently bought a new house so I don’t live with my family dog anymore but we would love our own dog in the future! 🫶🏼 Please note, as I am new to Rover, my prices are introductory prices for now & may be subject to change! I work full time as a teacher, so I’m available for dog walks from 4:15–8:30pm during the week, except Wednesday. I am available for dog walks all day Saturday & Sunday. I’m available for boarding everyday besides Wednesdays, however I am at work from Monday-Friday 8am-4:15pm, therefore your dog would be at home with my husband during these times, as he works from home. I live in a house with a large, fully fenced garden & am also a 5 minute walk from a large country park, perfect for dog walks! If it is your preference, I can crate your dog overnight, or they’re welcome to sleep upstairs on the bedroom floor next to me, or downstairs in a cozy dog bed/on the rug. My priority is making sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for just like they would at home.

“I was able to book a last minute request! Evie was super accommodating when I wasn’t sure what times I needed to book and was very quick with her responses! She sent multiple pictures during the walk and let me know when she dropped Skye back! Would definitely book with her again”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I can remember, ever since I was a kid, I encountered lots of different pets such as frogs, newts, hamsters, tortoise ect. However we had two staffs, I cared for them with my dad, from birth till I was 12. Having two staffs alongside many other animals has helped me gain knowledge on how to care and raise animals. Aside from my own pets, being an animal lover I naturally took on the role of walking my family’s dogs. I also worked in a farm for a few years doing voluntary work, this further expanded my experience beyond dogs and pets you’d have at home. I cleaned them out, fed them, and made sure everything is how it’s supposed to be to ensure they’re comfortable. At the moment I am unemployed and out of education, because of this I will have plenty of time to cater to walking your dogs! I would make sure the dogs needs are met, I would take time to get to know each dogs needs specifically. I would ensure the dog is always in my sight and never left unattended.
