“Once again thank you and your lovely family for looking after Bo for us. He likes it there so much he didn't want to leave again. This is the second time Bo has stayed with you and he always comes home happy and chilled out. I suspect he loves being spoilt by your two daughters. Good luck with the new puppy. Thanks again Kevin and Gina”
“Really great communication through and Emma sent lots of pictures of Comet during his stay which was very reassuring. Comet returned tired and happy which is the sign of a good sleep over! Many thanks.”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with my dog cooper I was so nervous about leaving him but she reassured me I was sent photos everyday and she looked after him well. I will be using Lauren again fantastic!”
“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”
About: Experience caring for breeds such as Border Collies, Boxers, Cocker Spaniels, Corgis, Austrian Shepherds, Labradors, Lhasa Apsos, and Australian Labradoodles. Confident with energetic working breeds as well as smaller companion dogs, providing tailored care, exercise, and calm handling based on individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I already walk 2–3 times a day, typically for around an hour each walk. I structure my day around providing consistent exercise, attention, and supervision, ensuring dogs get plenty of physical activity and stimulation throughout their stay. I’m at home for most of the day, so dogs are rarely left alone for long periods. My routine allows me to maintain a calm, stable environment with regular feeding times, walks, rest, and supervised garden access. I’m flexible and able to adjust my schedule to suit each dog’s individual needs, energy levels, and routines, including puppies or dogs that require more frequent attention. I provide a calm, safe home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family and their usual routines are followed, including feeding, exercise, and rest. I only board dogs from one household at a time, ensuring full attention, a stress-free environment, and no mixing with unfamiliar dogs. Dogs have access to a secure garden for supervised outdoor time, alongside tailored walks based on their individual needs and energy levels. I take a careful, responsible approach to care, prioritising safety, consistency, and comfort so each dog can settle quickly and feel at home. Owners receive regular updates with messages and photos for complete peace of mind while their dog is in my care.
“Julie was absolutely fantastic and made both me and Buster very welcome in her home. This was the first time I had ever had to leave Buster with strangers but, made me feel completely at ease and kept me updated throughout the duration of the booking.

“As my dog , has very particular ways, Alison took them on board and therfore she had a lovely stay with her . Much appreciated! Alison was lovely with her and we will definitely have her for future stays.”

I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day, ensuring your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well looked after while you’re away. I provide a safe, caring, and home-from-home environment for pets in my care. As I work from home, pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day.

In my home, dogs have access to comfortable living spaces and regular exercise, and they can enjoy social interaction with my friendly Rough Collie, Hugo, if suitable.

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.

Will would 100% be happy to let Oscar stay again, he had a great time!”

This is the second time Amy has looked after Buddy and he’ll definitely be back for more visits soon! Thanks again Amy!”
“We were very nervous leaving our dogs for the first time ever but can’t thank Sean, Ida and Darcy enough for taking such good care of our boys. It was easy to tell how happy and well cared for they were and Sean really went over and above to the point he pretty much gave up his sofa for them ?. Sean was also happy to send me little daily updates and pictures which meant I could relax knowing they were having a good time. Thanks again Sean ?”
About: My family and I had a West Highland terrier who lived till the ripe old age of 21! We adopted him from my grandad when he passed, who also had 5 previous westies all called skye-original I know!! I am a very active person who lives the company of a dog. I would be quite often found walking on the south west coastal path or along a beach somewhere. Unfortunately I work full time so it would be impractical for me to have my own. Most recently my parents welcomed the most beautiful working cocker spaniel, Stan, into their lives, who I also adore. I work full time Monday -friday but free after 5pm on week days and all day weekends. However, please message me as I can be flexible. We have an enclosed walled garden, with a gate. We also have full wooden flooring on the first floor of the house. Easy to clean!
“Cadi and Georgia have been amazing dogsitters. Experienced and kind, they did a great job with my 2 spaniels. Teifi is young and needs attention and Cadi and Georgia were fab with her. They walked the dogs daily, even made them doggy pancakes on Shrove Tuesday. We were sent lots of photos which made my kids smile whilst we were away. Will definitely rebook. Was great knowing my dogs were safe and happy Gwenda xx”
“Alzbeta looked after our little puppy Marshall over night, she really made every effort in making us feel at ease and happy to leave him with her. She sent us regular updates of him playing, out walking, his feeding and sleeping. She is a really lovely lady and we would 100% recommend her and feel happy to leave Marshall again. Thank you so much for being so kind and caring towards Marshall. A beautiful secure safe and clean home where he was treated like a baby! We look forward to seeing you again soon.”

I really appreciate the detailed notes she takes about Adis’s wees, sleep times, and general wellbeing, as well as the regular updates she sends. Most importantly, I can tell she genuinely loves animals, which is incredibly reassuring.

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: 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.

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.

“Really great communication through and Emma sent lots of pictures of Comet during his stay which was very reassuring. Comet returned tired and happy which is the sign of a good sleep over! Many thanks.”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with my dog cooper I was so nervous about leaving him but she reassured me I was sent photos everyday and she looked after him well. I will be using Lauren again fantastic!”
“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”
About: Experience caring for breeds such as Border Collies, Boxers, Cocker Spaniels, Corgis, Austrian Shepherds, Labradors, Lhasa Apsos, and Australian Labradoodles. Confident with energetic working breeds as well as smaller companion dogs, providing tailored care, exercise, and calm handling based on individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I already walk 2–3 times a day, typically for around an hour each walk. I structure my day around providing consistent exercise, attention, and supervision, ensuring dogs get plenty of physical activity and stimulation throughout their stay. I’m at home for most of the day, so dogs are rarely left alone for long periods. My routine allows me to maintain a calm, stable environment with regular feeding times, walks, rest, and supervised garden access. I’m flexible and able to adjust my schedule to suit each dog’s individual needs, energy levels, and routines, including puppies or dogs that require more frequent attention. I provide a calm, safe home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family and their usual routines are followed, including feeding, exercise, and rest. I only board dogs from one household at a time, ensuring full attention, a stress-free environment, and no mixing with unfamiliar dogs. Dogs have access to a secure garden for supervised outdoor time, alongside tailored walks based on their individual needs and energy levels. I take a careful, responsible approach to care, prioritising safety, consistency, and comfort so each dog can settle quickly and feel at home. Owners receive regular updates with messages and photos for complete peace of mind while their dog is in my care.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and understand the love, care, and attention they need to be happy and healthy. I currently have a friendly Rough Collie called Hugo, who has given me plenty of experience with daily walks, feeding routines, grooming, playtime, and understanding canine behaviour. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, lots of play, or simply companionship and cuddles, I will ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. As I work from home, I have lots of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day, ensuring your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well looked after while you’re away. I provide a safe, caring, and home-from-home environment for pets in my care. As I work from home, pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I follow each owner’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication requirements, and any special instructions. In my home, dogs have access to comfortable living spaces and regular exercise, and they can enjoy social interaction with my friendly Rough Collie, Hugo, if suitable. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I ensure their routine remains consistent, keeping them comfortable and settled while providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
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.
“Liam and Timmy were absolutely fantastic with Oscar! Fantastic caring home with lots of toys for Oscar to play with and keep him entertained. Great communication and some fantastic pictures of Oscar sent by them and they were even so kind as to give us a framed picture of Oscar when he was picked up. Thank you so much Liam and Timmy! Will would 100% be happy to let Oscar stay again, he had a great time!”
“Emma is lovely and has been very gentle and patient with my anxious rescue dog. Her home is quiet and peaceful with a lovely garden. My dog looked happy and relaxed in the photos and videos she sent me.”
About: My family and I had a West Highland terrier who lived till the ripe old age of 21! We adopted him from my grandad when he passed, who also had 5 previous westies all called skye-original I know!! I am a very active person who lives the company of a dog. I would be quite often found walking on the south west coastal path or along a beach somewhere. Unfortunately I work full time so it would be impractical for me to have my own. Most recently my parents welcomed the most beautiful working cocker spaniel, Stan, into their lives, who I also adore. I work full time Monday -friday but free after 5pm on week days and all day weekends. However, please message me as I can be flexible. We have an enclosed walled garden, with a gate. We also have full wooden flooring on the first floor of the house. Easy to clean!
“Cadi and Georgia have been amazing dogsitters. Experienced and kind, they did a great job with my 2 spaniels. Teifi is young and needs attention and Cadi and Georgia were fab with her. They walked the dogs daily, even made them doggy pancakes on Shrove Tuesday. We were sent lots of photos which made my kids smile whilst we were away. Will definitely rebook. Was great knowing my dogs were safe and happy Gwenda xx”
“Alzbeta looked after our little puppy Marshall over night, she really made every effort in making us feel at ease and happy to leave him with her. She sent us regular updates of him playing, out walking, his feeding and sleeping. She is a really lovely lady and we would 100% recommend her and feel happy to leave Marshall again. Thank you so much for being so kind and caring towards Marshall. A beautiful secure safe and clean home where he was treated like a baby! We look forward to seeing you again soon.”
