About: I have owned and cared for all kinds of animals since I can remember, I have always had dogs and cats in my family and I take great pride in knowing that they are cared for properly. I treat every animal like I would do my own so you can rest knowing that your pet is receiving the best care and attention in your absence. I am currently at home 7 days a week with my 2 children so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pets and give them the attention that they require! My children are 2 & 3 so your pet must be good around children of a young age. I am happy to follow your daily routine with your pet, sticking to walk times, feeding times etc. I have a large fenced garden, which will provide all the space that your pets require! I have 1 friendly Sharpei who can also keep your fur baby company. If needed, I do have the space to be able to crate your pet.


8. Barry M.

“Barry looked after our 9 month old Cocker Spaniel for the first time today and I really couldn’t fault him from start to finish. We did a meet and greet a couple of weeks ago which was so helpful for both of us. Barry was very welcoming and made Max feel at ease straightaway. He sent regular updates and photos. I couldn’t have asked for more to be honest. Max has returned home a very happy, and tired, boy.”


9. bridie t.

“I was very nervous about leaving Daisy with people that she didn’t now as I’ve only had her 1 week. She is very timid. However you can see how Bridie put Daisy at ease. I rang after couple of hours to see if Daisy had settled my mind was put at rest straight away.”


10. Angel K.

“Angel was great with Orange. Lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, and it’s clear that Orange (a slightly nervous rescue dog!) had a great time, was well cared for and trusted Angel - even to the point of playing with her and relaxing next to her. Totally recommend and would let Angel care for Orange again without question!”

“Emma is a sweet and caring person who has always been loving and gentle with our dogs. She has a great attitude and genuinely cares for dogs.”


12. Shannon S.

I would 100% recommend her to anyone so she can contribute into caring for your pet and I'm sure she would thank and appreciate you for giving her these opportunities”


13. Rebecca K.
“I highly recommend Rebecca as a responsible and caring pet caregiver! She has looked after our dog on numerous occasions, always demonstrating a genuine love for animals.

Her dedication and compassion make her an excellent choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”

About: I've been a huge lover of dogs since a very young age. Once I was into the working world I didn't think twice about what I wanted to do. I've worked in variety of different groomers, helped out in group walks, had experince working in a Kennels. I also successfully ran my own dog boarding business for just under a year back in 2019. In my house, we have a dog named Murphy and a cat named Burrito. They get on super well and they are really chilled so another dog in the home wouldn't be a problem if that's a service you require. My house has great parks and moors within a 2 mile radius. I can offer, Dog Walking, Doggy Day Care, Puppy Visits and Cat Visits. My lifestyle is super flexible at the moment so I'm fully able to dedicate all my love to your pups! I'm currently unemployed and wanting to make this my full time role. I can dedicate all my time and love to your pets without a doubt. I can be around 24/7 and I can also make sure my weekends are free to look after your pets. I have a lovely home which becomes very cosy of a night time, great for cuddles and naps. I have a back garden which isn't fenced but can be easily blocked via my car. There is two fields nearby within a 2 minute walking distance. Your pets can also have free run of the house as my dog and cat also have. My dog Murphy gets on with every dog, he's very gentle and calm. My cat on the other hand will keep his distance. If I was to come look after your pets at your home, we can discuss this in further detail at the time. However everything will be kept pristine and your dog will just have it's usual home routine


19. Jordan W.
“Jordan has looked after my 2 year old , old thyme bulldog since she was 3 months old. I highly recommend him as a caregiver, he is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and amazing with dogs. My Luna loves him and is always so excited when he comes to get her for the day! Thanks Jordan :)”


20. Emily W.
“Emily has been dog sitting for Tyke for 2 years now, I can not fault her. She has been available very last minute when I’ve had to work, she is very loving towards Tyke and treats them as her own. Emily has had Tyke over night multiple times and he has always loved being around her and her son who also enjoys the company of Tyke.”
