“So very kind and accommodating. Bronwen took our dog on beautiful long walks and wasn’t phased by his boundless energy. She sent lots of lovely photos of their fun together. Bronwen made sure she kept his usual home rules and routine to avoid confusion. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again! Thank you”
“Julie was an excellent pooch sitter for our nervous chihuahua. He INSTANTLY loved Julie, she has a calm and nurturing demeanour and our dog was at ease the moment she opened the door (where usually he is quite nervous with people he has never met before). Julie was excellent to communicate with, she was happy to meet our dog at her home for us to ensure that he was acquainted with her and felt comfortable, we felt very confident to leave our dog with her following this visit, her home is secure and homely; a home from home for your pet’s visit. Thank you for taking the best care of our pooch Julie, he returned home content and calm and visibly well cared for. I highly recommend Julie to take care of your pet. I will definitely be booking our pooch in for a stay with Julie again in the future. Thank you Julie.”

“I would highly recommend Neil to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur baby while they're away. Neil looked after our dog for five days while we were on holiday, and we couldn't have been happier with the care he received. He treated our dog as if he were his own, making him feel comfortable, loved, and right at home throughout his stay. We had complete peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. Thank you, Neil!”
About: I'm Beata an experienced puppy owner who knows how to handle energetic, clever dogs. I focus on calm, positive handling, clear routines, and safe, structured walks. I'm confident with long leads, enrichment, recall practice, and reading dog body language. I've also cared for an anxious Chihuahua in the past, so I'm comfortable supporting more sensitive or shy dogs too. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, playtime, or quiet company, l keep things safe, relaxed, and tailored to them. Moreover, I have been attending puppy training classes and so I am also confident looking after young puppies. My partner James is also very experienced with handling dogs and helps with walks and structure, but I'm your main sitter and point of contact. I work from home so I am available to care for your pet most of the time. I usually go for a walk with my 4 month puppy in the morning as we have a great choice of parks nearby, if it’s a really hot day I take her for walks around 6-7am and then occupy her at home with some enrichment activities, training and playtime in the garden. I prepare food for my puppy at the same time as mine so we eat together and I can also keep an eye out on her. At the moment we go for 2 walks a day, one in the morning and another in the evening. I have a fenced garden and one very friendly puppy, she loves playing with other dogs and can adapt to their play style. I also have a foldable crate/playpen which I only need to use sometimes now. I’ve also used it as a tool with my neighbours dog who is less playful to give her some space when she needs it.
“Our Autumn 🍂 went to mels today , she was so spoilt and was treated like their baby .. 3 walks today abd even went to Pets at Home and mel bought her a toy .. Autumn has fallen in lucky with mel and im so blessed with findin mel, and her gorgeous husband josh ❤️”
“Lucy had a great time with Victoria, partner and two adorable little pups. Communication was great, with photos and updates throughout her stay. She was clearly very well looked after and had lots of fun (came home tired which is always a good sign!). Will definitely book again, thanks!”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Caitlin as a dog boarding sitter, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! The booking process was incredibly smooth and user-friendly, which set a positive tone right from the start. A few days after booking, we had a meet and greet where my fur babies could get acquainted with Caitlin and explore her cozy home. Caitlin’s warm and friendly demeanor immediately put me at ease. She took the time to listen carefully to my needs and preferences for my dogs, ensuring that they would be well cared for during their stay. I appreciate how attentive she was to their individual personalities and requirements. Throughout their stay, Caitlin provided regular updates on how my dogs were doing, which really reassured me that they were happy and comfortable. One of the standout aspects of my experience with Caitlyn was her flexibility. On checkout day, she kindly offered that I could pick my dogs up at any time that worked for me since she was home all day. This thoughtful gesture made the process so much easier for me, and I truly appreciated her accommodating nature. Overall, I highly recommend Caitlyn for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure my fur babies were safe, happy, and well-loved during their stay. It's such a shame that we're moving abroad, but if we ever return to Wales, I will definitely book with Caitlyn again in the future. Thank you so much, Caitlyn!”
“Our Lena stayed with Karen for a week while's we went away and she had a great time. Very well look after. She loves it there as evident from the many pics and videos Karen sent. Lots of walks. Thank you.”
“Lowri and her family looked after our two springers like they were their own. We had regular pictures of beautiful walks and updates on them. They were considerate of each dogs needs and we would love her to have them again.”
“Francesca was very friendly, allowed two visits prior to Eddie and Charlie's stay, answered all my questions and left me feeling reassured. Francesca sent photos and messages whilst we were away which further reassured me that the dogs were OK. I would be happy to leave my dogs again with Francesca. Thankyou”
“Frankie is 16 year old dog so I do worry about him while I am away. When I returned for holidays Frankie was a bundle of fun so obviuosly had been well looked after. He was even allowed to sleep in Aggies bedroom. I highly recommend this service.”
About: I have lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs and genuinely love making sure they feel happy, safe, and well looked after. I currently have a 12-week-old puppy at home, so I’m very comfortable with puppy care, routines, and positive reinforcement. I’ve regularly cared for a Border Collie, Golden Retriever, and Yorkie, giving me experience with both high-energy and smaller breeds. I also volunteer as a dog walker at Cardiff Dogs Home, where I’ve built confidence handling dogs with different temperaments and ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I’m available for overnight stays from Friday night through to Monday evening, as well as Wednesday nights, with flexible Thursday pick-ups if full-day care is needed. Because I work from home on Mondays and Thursdays (and my partner works from home on Wednesdays), dogs are rarely left alone and get plenty of company throughout the day. I can also offer daytime care on these days, with lots of walks, training, playtime, and cuddles built into my breaks. All tailored to how your dog is feeling and what they enjoy most. Dogs in my care are treated as part of the household and are always supervised in a calm, safe environment. I have a fully fenced garden for secure outdoor time, and dogs are never left unattended outside. Inside the home, dogs stay with me in the living room or home office so they’re always close by and included. I provide comfortable dog beds for smaller dogs, and larger dogs are equally welcome and settle on their own cosy blankets. I follow each owner’s routines and preferences carefully to ensure every dog feels relaxed, safe, and at home
“My big German shepherd/malinois stayed with Alisha and Sean. They cared for him beautifully and they took the time to understand what he needed. They very much allowed my boy to feel right at home. Looking forward to his next stay with them in October :)”
“Gloria took such good care of Winnie. We picked Winnie up and she was very happy. My husband said he could tell Winnie had fallen in love with Gloria. Gloria kept us up to date with Winnie and helped Winnie settle in a new home. Highly recommend for dog sitting.”
“Abigail and Jose hosted our rescue pup for a trial night which was his first time staying away from home since we’ve had him. Their care and attention to detail was phenomenal and instantly made us and Tiggy feel safe and comfortable. So willing to work around our dogs needs and he had the most amazing time, he wanted to stay and go on another scenic walk in the countryside. ☺️”
“Booked with Sarah to watch our miniature dachshund Toby for the weekend whilst we tied the knot, we were a little nervous as we hadn’t left him before but she kept us updated and sent pics and videos, Toby & Rolo got on great and had the best time! Can’t thank Sarah enough and would definitely recommend! Thank you so much again xx”

About: I’m Tia, I have my own dog who is a beagle and he loves other dogs. Beagles are quite naughty so I’m experienced with naughty dogs!😂 I’m happy to look after or walk any dog/ cat of any size. We have a nice size garden for your dog to explore in and have fun! If your Dog is staying over, they will be allowed to sleep anywhere they want as our dog doesn’t sleep in a cage. But if you wanted your dog to be in a cage at night, that’s totally fine. I absolutely adore animals and I’d be more than happy to meet and look after yours! If your dog doesn’t like other dogs, I’d be able to do the dog walking service, house sitting and drop in services but not any at our house with our dog.

I have a secure paved courtyard as well as an open front garden for your pet. I currently own a 4 year old Jackapoo, called Ralph, who loves every dog he meets.

“Tina was able to help us out with our last minute request Bella. Tina saw quickly that we weren’t local so a meet and greet beforehand wasn’t possible Therefore she suggested a phone call so we were able to introduce ourselves, tell her about Bella and ask any questions. Having had that call with Tina we felt confident that all would be fine. On meeting Tina outside her house our good impressions from the call were immediately confirmed. Tina obviously has a deep love for dogs and knows how to care for them - we wouldn’t hesitate to contact her again if we had a similar need and would recommend her wholeheartedly. Bella enjoyed her time and was very relaxed ..,and we enjoyed talking to Tina and her family..”

About: Hello my name is Lucia 🙂 I have grown up around dogs and cats and I have always had them as part of my family, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. Over the years, I have helped with feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. Being around dogs and cats for most of my life has taught me how to understand their needs, personalities, and routines, and I am comfortable caring for them of different ages and temperaments. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home. On weekdays, I only leave briefly in the morning to take my child to nursery from 10:00 to 11:30, and then I return home for the rest of the day. This means I can provide plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and companionship for your pet throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a secure, fenced garden where dogs can enjoy fresh air and play safely. Pets will receive lots of love, attention, and care while staying with me. I also enjoy taking dogs on regular walks, so they can get exercise, explore, and have fun during their stay.
About: I have recently been taking care of a dachshund puppy for a few hours at a time. I am loving, playful and caring with dogs but I am also firm and set boundaries. I can provide a happy home away from home I am free every day as all my children are in school. I do not have any other commitments other than the school run . I have a fenced back garden and a large field next to my house. I drive and have access to a vehicle so am flexible with your needs
About: Hello! Mark here- a friendly, trustworthy and active dog walker with tons of excitable (or calm depending what’s needed) energy. Im an active runner with experience of daily walks with my 18 month old Lab Daisy where she walks both on and off lead confidently. Having been around dogs my whole life we took the plunge and squeezed Daisy in to our already busy life a year and a half ago where she has thrived from a puppy to becoming the friendliest dog there is. I can provide the same energy, fun and care when looking after and walking your doggos. I can walk your dog(s) individually or bring Daisy along should they want a play pal. I work as a self employed camera assistant which means that when I’m not working I am home and available, my schedule reflects this and you can expect my full attention when your pup is with me. We have a fully fenced garden that our own dog uses to do her business. Our dog Daisy is Very friendly and playful with loads of energy but is also fully crate trained should they get too excited and need to be separated. Our cat Margaret is also used to having dogs around, both mine and my mums and tends to go off and do her own thing. She is also very friendly and a proper lap cat. Our two children are at school during the daytime however when they are home have no problems with the boundless energy of Daisy dog.

About: I've always had animals growing up varying from cats and dogs to hamsters and fish so I understand the care and trust required to taking care of them. I have taken care of animals with my family from a young age including cat and dog sitting as well as daily check ins, socialising and feeds. Most recently I have been on standby for relatives pets when I'm available, usually during school holidays however decided that it's time to offer my services to the wider community. I have had experience training two of my own puppies as well as providing senior care to my relatives dog when sitting, including providing medication. Typically in term time, I am a teacher meaning my availability shortens to evenings and weekends however from June - September I work from home and can therefore be flexible to work around what's best for you and your pet. During school holidays my availability will become larger rather than being evening and weekend based. I'm currently working on a zero hour contract therefore my weekly schedule is super flexible as I work from home. I have my own dog so tend to take him out twice a day alongside a morning and evening feed with lots of playing in between! Due to my flexibility I can work around your schedule to ensure your furry friends are cared for. I am happy to come over for a home visit prior to your first booking to meet yourselves as well as your pet(s) to ensure they have a level of familiarity with me upon the first time we go on a walk or pop in for a visit. This allows you to see how comfortable your pet(s) will be in my company for peace of mind along side allowing me to gain any information from you such as feed times / amounts / walking routes your pet is most comfortable with or toys they enjoy playing with the most.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life as we've always had one as a family pet. I've also taken friends and neighbours dogs for walks along with dog sitting them. I always make a lovely bond and always make sure all animals are well looked after as they are more family than animals Pet care becomes a natural part of my own daily rhythm it’s woven into my schedule almost like clockwork. Here’s how it typically fits in: Morning: Wake-up nudge: Your dog might be your alarm clock. First task? A quick potty break or walk. Feeding time: You prep their breakfast while maybe grabbing your own. Grooming check: A quick brush, paw check, or wiping off muddy paws if needed. Midday: Exercise/play: Whether you're on a lunch break or home during the day, this is a chance to stretch legs and play fetch or tug. Mental stimulation: Maybe a puzzle toy, a training session, or even just some one-on-one time. Evening: Walk or play session: A wind-down activity that burns off energy. Feeding and clean-up: Dinner and water refill, along with any tidying up. Affection/cuddles: Pets need emotional care, too. This could be snuggle time on the couch while you relax. Before Bed: Bathroom break: One last trip outside. Health checks: You might slip in a quick ear check, teeth brushing, or meds if needed. I have a fenced off garden front and back due to having my own dogs with a side gate, dogs will not get out alone

Growing up we have always had dogs and I have taken on a lot of the walking/training responsibilities of both our animals and friends and families. I have lived with and looked after a variety of breeds and have experience with larger dogs too. Myself and my partner would love a dog of our own, but due to work commitments changing in the future I don’t want to commit to a dog of our own and not be able to meet its needs 100% of the time. So by offering services through rover I can fill that dog shaped hole in my heart and provide your pets with the love and attention they need when you are unable to x I am a freelance makeup artist and have a flexible schedule which will allow pet care to fit in to my routine easily and allows me to give them my full attention.

Currently only offering pet sitting in their own home. It’s important to me that your pet is safe and comfortable in somewhere they know. I will ask all about their routine and how best they usually like to spend their days, so I can continue to make them happy and comfortable when you’re not there.
About: I’ve been in love with dogs for as long as I can remember. I had a beloved family dog for 14 years and she sadly passed away last year. I love the company of dogs and miss the companionship. Spending time with dogs has always brought me so much joy. Dog walking feels like the perfect way to still feel connected to the love our fury friends give us. I regularly take care of my friend’s dogs when they are on holiday. I work full time as a teacher for children with special educational needs. I am mainly available during school holidays and occasionally on the weekends I have a fenced garden and no dogs of my own. I am excited to meet some new furry friends and go on some adventures 🌲

About: I grew up around working dogs and will be looking to get my own dog soon! I love dogs and I always have, myself and my partner have also got two spoiled cats in our house so I have experience with cats also. I have dogsat for friends and family and wholly loved the experience, I also trained all of my own dogs growing up so I fully understand that every animal has their own unique traits and personality. I'm always available to pop in and take care of your pets! Be it a short toilet break and water check or a good long walk, I'm happy to learn your rules and expectations and make sure that your animal is as happy as possible while I'm around. And if they're not the social type - thats fine too! I'll always have water with me on walks to make sure we both stay hydrated. I'll keep your dog on a lead at all times and am happy to take less social dogs out at quieter times to ensure they get a good walk in. I'm also happy to film and photograph both home visits and walks so you know your pet is receiving the best care possible while you're away. I also 100% encourage a meet and greet beforehand for you and your animal, so they can get a sizing of me and so you know who you're dealing with!
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats and small animals my whole life and achieved my BSc in Animal Behaviour & Welfare at 21. I have a dog of my own - a male Labrador X Golden Retriever who is full of beans unless he’s sleeping on the sofa! I am an established pet professional with over 3 years experience in the pet care industry, working with a wide variety of dogs, and many years of personal experience too. I cover almost all breeds and sizes. I am also able to work with you on basic training and socialisation. Primarily focusing on solo walks (or dogs from the same household). I am a part-time pet professional and will aim to offer all services where possible. I do not work weekends or evenings. I usually offer walks between 10am and 3pm, Mon to Thurs as standard. Animal safety and welfare is paramount to me and will always be my number one priority. I am Canine Emergency First Aid trained and carry a dog-specific first aid kit with me at all times. I work with your dog and according to their limits. I also have a strict heat policy.
About: I studied Animal Management at Level 3 and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals. I’ve worked in kennels, gained experience in a wildlife park environment, and regularly assist with pet care through Kim’s Companion Care, including home boarding, dog walking and drop-in visits for kitties!! I am pet first aid trained through ProTrainings and fully insured, giving owners extra reassurance that their pets are in safe and capable hands. I am a massive animal lover and have owned cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters and now a dog! I have also helped with caring for my family’s chickens, dogs, horses, guinea pigs and budgies too! I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes (I especially love a big dog!) and temperaments, including puppies and high-energy breeds. I’m confident with feeding routines, enrichment, administering medication and maintaining consistent routines so pets feel comfortable and settled while their owners are away. Alongside dogs, I also have experience caring for cats, birds, reptiles, fish and other small animals. I have two cats of my own and a German Shepherd puppy called Maeve, so I understand the importance of structure, patience and positive training when caring for dogs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritise their safety, wellbeing and happiness. I also know how important it is for owners to feel reassured while they’re away, so I’m always happy to provide regular updates, photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing 😊 Please message for my availability as it varies depending on the day due to juggling college and work! 🌟 My schedule is quite flexible around my college timetable and part-time work. I am generally available for pet care most days of the week, including mornings, afternoons and evenings depending on the day. I am fully available on Sundays and Mondays, and I also have good availability around my college hours on weekdays (this will finish in May!). I am happy to arrange visits, walks or house sitting around your pet’s normal routine to make sure they stay comfortable and well looked after. When caring for pets I always prioritise safety, routine and keeping things as stress-free as possible. I take the time to understand each pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule and behaviour so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I am pet first aid trained and fully insured, and I have experience caring for animals with different temperaments and needs. I am also confident administering medication if required. I always make sure homes are left secure, pets have fresh food and water, and they receive plenty of attention, play and enrichment during visits!

I offer help with training and recall whilst on the walk Every walk or sit comes with photo and video updates so you can see exactly what your pup gets up to!

I use secure leads and equipment at all times and dogs are never left unattended. I’m experienced with dogs of all temperaments and always take time to build trust with a new dog before diving straight into walks
About: Hi, I’m Katy 👋 I’m an experienced, calm, and very attentive pet carer offering dog walking, drop-ins, and sitting for both dogs and cats. I’m especially good with sensitive, anxious, or older animals who need a slower pace, consistency, and gentle handling. I genuinely love being outdoors and tailor walks to your dog’s needs — whether that’s a long countryside ramble, a steady sniff-filled stroll, or just some fresh air and reassurance. For cats, I’m patient, respectful of boundaries, and happy to follow their routine exactly as they like it. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and content. Your pet’s wellbeing, comfort, and routine always come first 🤍 Im a stay at home mum and currently studying part-time so plenty of time to fit in playing, feeding and sorting out pups and cats. I can do drop ins morning, afternoon, evening and can do doggie walks in morning and afternoon. Happy to have dogs in the day, i have a fenced garden and live near lots of big outdoor spaces and great walks for them to stretch their legs. I also own a medium crate and/or happy to crate dogs at your home if need be. I drive and can come and pick up dogs for walks.
About: I have experience with Terriers, mainly, as well as looking after different types and sizes of dogs including rescue dogs as I have fostered in the past. I am able to reinforce training that has been given by the owners as well as teaching training that an owner would like (my dog even waves to people on command!) I currently work full-time however, due to the flexibility of my work, I am able to accommodate most requests, within reason. Drop ins during lunchtimes are completed. I have a secure paved courtyard as well as an open front garden for your pet. I currently own a 4 year old Jackapoo, called Ralph, who loves every dog he meets. He is able to have access to all areas of the home. Crating can be completed, if necessary, however crates will need to be provided. I will care for your pet as if it was my own, if they aren’t allowed on the sofa, bed etc at home, I would respect your wishes and reinforce this.
About: I’ve always loved Dogs as a young child. Grown up with Labrador’s, Miniature Schnauzers and my sister’s dogs. Looked after my cousins dog on a few occasions, and helped my friend with her new larger dog. I just adore animals of all types, but have a soft spot for dogs. I am very caring and kind person. I’m currently on my Summer Holiday from my job as a Teacher/ SEN Teaching Assistant. I don’t get paid in the holidays, so as I love Dogs thought I would sign myself up for Dog walking, dog sitting , dog drops in etc. At my home, I have a big back garden that is fenced and a grassed area to throw a ball and to play safely outside.

“So very kind and accommodating. Bronwen took our dog on beautiful long walks and wasn’t phased by his boundless energy. She sent lots of lovely photos of their fun together. Bronwen made sure she kept his usual home rules and routine to avoid confusion. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again! Thank you”
“I would highly recommend Neil to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur baby while they're away. Neil looked after our dog for five days while we were on holiday, and we couldn't have been happier with the care he received. He treated our dog as if he were his own, making him feel comfortable, loved, and right at home throughout his stay. We had complete peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. Thank you, Neil!”

“I recently had the pleasure of using Caitlin as a dog boarding sitter, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! The booking process was incredibly smooth and user-friendly, which set a positive tone right from the start. A few days after booking, we had a meet and greet where my fur babies could get acquainted with Caitlin and explore her cozy home. Caitlin’s warm and friendly demeanor immediately put me at ease. She took the time to listen carefully to my needs and preferences for my dogs, ensuring that they would be well cared for during their stay. I appreciate how attentive she was to their individual personalities and requirements. Throughout their stay, Caitlin provided regular updates on how my dogs were doing, which really reassured me that they were happy and comfortable. One of the standout aspects of my experience with Caitlyn was her flexibility. On checkout day, she kindly offered that I could pick my dogs up at any time that worked for me since she was home all day. This thoughtful gesture made the process so much easier for me, and I truly appreciated her accommodating nature. Overall, I highly recommend Caitlyn for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure my fur babies were safe, happy, and well-loved during their stay. It's such a shame that we're moving abroad, but if we ever return to Wales, I will definitely book with Caitlyn again in the future. Thank you so much, Caitlyn!”
“Our Lena stayed with Karen for a week while's we went away and she had a great time. Very well look after. She loves it there as evident from the many pics and videos Karen sent. Lots of walks. Thank you.”
“Lowri and her family looked after our two springers like they were their own. We had regular pictures of beautiful walks and updates on them. They were considerate of each dogs needs and we would love her to have them again.”
“Frankie is 16 year old dog so I do worry about him while I am away. When I returned for holidays Frankie was a bundle of fun so obviuosly had been well looked after. He was even allowed to sleep in Aggies bedroom. I highly recommend this service.”
About: I have lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs and genuinely love making sure they feel happy, safe, and well looked after. I currently have a 12-week-old puppy at home, so I’m very comfortable with puppy care, routines, and positive reinforcement. I’ve regularly cared for a Border Collie, Golden Retriever, and Yorkie, giving me experience with both high-energy and smaller breeds. I also volunteer as a dog walker at Cardiff Dogs Home, where I’ve built confidence handling dogs with different temperaments and ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I’m available for overnight stays from Friday night through to Monday evening, as well as Wednesday nights, with flexible Thursday pick-ups if full-day care is needed. Because I work from home on Mondays and Thursdays (and my partner works from home on Wednesdays), dogs are rarely left alone and get plenty of company throughout the day. I can also offer daytime care on these days, with lots of walks, training, playtime, and cuddles built into my breaks. All tailored to how your dog is feeling and what they enjoy most. Dogs in my care are treated as part of the household and are always supervised in a calm, safe environment. I have a fully fenced garden for secure outdoor time, and dogs are never left unattended outside. Inside the home, dogs stay with me in the living room or home office so they’re always close by and included. I provide comfortable dog beds for smaller dogs, and larger dogs are equally welcome and settle on their own cosy blankets. I follow each owner’s routines and preferences carefully to ensure every dog feels relaxed, safe, and at home
“My big German shepherd/malinois stayed with Alisha and Sean. They cared for him beautifully and they took the time to understand what he needed. They very much allowed my boy to feel right at home. Looking forward to his next stay with them in October :)”
“Gloria took such good care of Winnie. We picked Winnie up and she was very happy. My husband said he could tell Winnie had fallen in love with Gloria. Gloria kept us up to date with Winnie and helped Winnie settle in a new home. Highly recommend for dog sitting.”
“Abigail and Jose hosted our rescue pup for a trial night which was his first time staying away from home since we’ve had him. Their care and attention to detail was phenomenal and instantly made us and Tiggy feel safe and comfortable. So willing to work around our dogs needs and he had the most amazing time, he wanted to stay and go on another scenic walk in the countryside. ☺️”

“Dora appeared to have settled in quite well with Sophie and her lovely family straight away... I was very happy to have left Dora after an intentional introduction visit, Dora was fussed by both Sophie and her daughters and made very welcome.... I would recommend Sophie and will be using her service's again in the future...”
About: Hello my name is Lucia 🙂 I have grown up around dogs and cats and I have always had them as part of my family, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. Over the years, I have helped with feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. Being around dogs and cats for most of my life has taught me how to understand their needs, personalities, and routines, and I am comfortable caring for them of different ages and temperaments. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home. On weekdays, I only leave briefly in the morning to take my child to nursery from 10:00 to 11:30, and then I return home for the rest of the day. This means I can provide plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and companionship for your pet throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a secure, fenced garden where dogs can enjoy fresh air and play safely. Pets will receive lots of love, attention, and care while staying with me. I also enjoy taking dogs on regular walks, so they can get exercise, explore, and have fun during their stay.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every dog. I treat each pet as if they were my own, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm patient, reliable, and comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. Whether it's an energetic puppy that needs consistency and positive reinforcement, or a senior dog that requires a slower pace, medication, or extra comfort, I'm happy to tailor my care to suit them. I believe in keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. My goal is to provide a fun, stress-free experience where your pet gets plenty of exercise, affection, and one-on-one attention in a safe and caring environment. I work five days a week, but I make time every day for pet care. Walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention are all part of my routine, ensuring every dog gets the care and companionship they need. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in their own home, I stick to their usual routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also keep their environment clean and provide updates with photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.
