Excellent service from Leanne and Kane. Both were very warm and I felt reassured they would take good care of our cats. They were interested in their different personalities and and what each cat liked. Really good communication whilst we were away with daily updates with lots of photos. Would strongly recommend and would use them again

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 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.

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.

About: We have both had small and medium sized dogs growing up, including both senior and puppies needing training. We absolutely love looking after our friends dogs. Since we work full-time, we don't have a dog of our own yet—which means when we’re with your pet, they get 100% of our undivided attention, energy, and affection. We both work full-time, so will always make sure our available time is when we are home, giving your pet 100% of our attention when required. We have a fenced 90ft garden so lots of space to run and play fetch. We don't have any pets in our home so if your animal is a little nervous with other animals that's nothing to worry about.

Georgina did a wonderful job of looking after our two kitties while we were away over Christmas. She gave us lovely detailed daily updates with photos and gave the kitties loads of cuddles every day! Really recommend Georgina and will definitely ask her to catsit again.

About: I have owned a Bernese mountain dog and a cavalier king charles, so I have had experience with large and small breeds. Ive also house sat for friends and relatives. I have a qualification also in pet sitting plus hands on knowledge with some medical administration. I have also volunteered at dog and animal sanctuaries, home and abroad. I do work part time, so I am flexible with being able to look after your dog. I drive but would really , for visits you must be fairly local. I will be only be looking to dog visit or sit in the owners home. For safety reasons,I would need to know if your garden is fully fenced in, whether there are any areas where your dog could escape. Also exercise , how long and where, what sort of personality your dog has and any special requirements , food, how much and any medicines.

I am so happy I found April. She looked after my beagle Pyppa with so much care and kindness. My dog is not easy (older and a bit anxious), but April was very patient and understanding. I felt at ease knowing Pyppa was in good hands. Highly recommend!

Kimberly was fantastic. We have a foster dog who has only been in a home (first time ever) for a few days and our other dog recently lost the dog he’s been with for five years to cancer so he’s grieving. She was amazing with two complex dogs, cleaned up a mess from the sick dog because she was worried about our floors and just went above and beyond. I wasn’t expecting anything other than letting them out and giving them a treat, but she was wonderful! I would absolutely recommend.

Safety & Supervision First As a stay-at-home mum, I am home throughout the day. My husband Gurpal works from home two days a week, this means your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. I have two children 3 and 5 years old who have grown up with dogs their whole life. Our Daily Routine Your dog won't just be "watched"—they will be part of the family. Our days are filled with: Active Play: Frequent garden games and mental stimulation. Daily Walks: Regular outings to stretch our legs and explore. Secure Environment: I have a large family home and a garden that is significantly larger than average—fully fenced and perfect for zoomies!

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!
