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.
“Costa came back to us a very happy pup and was well cared for and loved in our absence. When we picked him up it was clear to see he was fond of Clare and her daughter after a week with them. Thank you Clare for caring for Costa for us while we were away.”
“Amy looked after Buddy overnight whilst I was at a wedding. She was so good with him and he really enjoyed his stay. She kept me up to date throughout the stay with messages and pictures. This is the second time Amy has looked after Buddy and he’ll definitely be back for more visits soon! Thanks again Amy!”
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.
“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 couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate Mary is about animals. She took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, which instantly put me at ease. While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which made such a difference and reassured me that Rosie was happy and well looked after. It was obvious Rosie felt comfortable, relaxed, and even a little spoiled! When I returned, everything was exactly as I’d hoped — a happy, healthy dog and a home that was just as I left it. I would absolutely recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, and I will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my dog!”
About: Nijo & Jenny Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up in a home with multiple dogs and cats and have cared for pets for many years. Over time, I have looked after and cared for dogs ranging from small breeds to large breeds, each with their own unique personalities, needs and routines. As a Merchant Navy Officer, I have 2 mo tha rotation, where I am onboard for 2-3 and at home on leave for 2-3 months. During my leave periods, I am home full-time for up to two months at a stretch, allowing me to provide plenty of companionship, exercise and supervision. My wife and I are both passionate animal lovers and regularly help friends with their dogs. Due to my work pattern we are unable to get a dog ourselves currently but we try to compensate that by lending a hand to our friends with pets. We understand that every pet is different, and we strive to provide a safe, loving and stress-free home away from home where pets are treated as part of the family. We ourselves use rover when we go for vacations and understand the situation, we strive to create a second home for your furry friends and would be part of our family. When I am on leave from work, I am available at home full-time and can dedicate my attention to your pet throughout the day. This allows me to maintain their usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, rest periods and plenty of companionship. I enjoy spending time outdoors and regularly visit local walking areas such as Brynna Woods and Smilog Woods. Depending on your dog's preferences and energy levels, I can also provide longer walks, park visits and beach outings. I only accept one household's dog at a time, ensuring your pet receives individual attention and a calm environment. Your pet's safety and wellbeing are my highest priorities. My wife and I live in a spacious home with a secure fenced back garden, providing a safe environment for dogs to relax, play and explore. We also share our home with our friendly domestic shorthair cat, Simba, who is comfortable around dogs that respect her space. Before every booking, I take time to understand your pet's routine, preferences, dietary requirements and any special instructions. My wife is a medical doctor and is happy to assist with routine medications if required, providing additional reassurance for owners whose pets may need ongoing treatment during their stay. I only accept one household's dog at a time, ensuring your pet receives individual attention, plenty of supervision and a calm environment. I will also provide regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, comfortable and well cared for.
“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!”
About: I have a 5 year old labrador and I'm very used to walking him for 1 hour daily. I grew up with dogs and lived near a farm as a young child. I also had 2 pet persian house cats as well as budgie's and hamsters. I work full-time but this is agile, balancing office based with working from home. I am usually free during the evenings and on fridays as well as the weekends. But this can be flexible if i offer a boarding service as i can agile work. I have a fenced garden so everything is safe and enclosed, i also live on a quiet estate where the road is not busy. I like to spend time with the animals when they are in my company, as long as a blanket is on the sofa and bed they are welcome to lay on this.
About: If your dog doesn't do well on it's own all day whilst you're at work/busy, I can help! I am a licensed animal boarding establishment and I work from home every day of the week and would love to look after your dog. I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Two years ago I welcomed my own pup, a cockapoo called Dewi, into my life, and he’s my absolute world. Because I know firsthand how important our dogs are to us, I treat every pup I care for as if they were my own—safe, loved, and happy at all times. I work from home every day so more than happy to have your dog hang out at mine. Dewi is friendly and gets on with all dogs but he's not neutered so I wouldn't be able to take on female dogs on heat. If your dog doesn't get on with other dogs, no worries, if you're not too far I can fit in a visit to yours to give your dog some company during the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my first priority. In my home, dogs are welcomed into a calm and loving environment where they can feel secure and relaxed. I live in a safe, pet-friendly space and always supervise play, walks, and interactions with my own dog, Dewi, to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy. Because I work from home, I’m able to keep a close eye on your pup throughout the day and give them plenty of attention, breaks, and cuddles. On walks, I’m very mindful of keeping dogs secure on-leash, avoiding hazards, and tailoring the pace to each dog’s needs. If your dog has good recall I am more than happy to let them off lead. There's plenty of fields near mine to let them roam free. In your home, I’ll respect your space and your pet’s routine, keeping things consistent so your dog feels safe and cared for even while you’re away. I believe that trust is built through reliability, communication, and genuine care and I’ll treat your dog like family every single time.

About: Me and my wife are both pet lovers, we have a 3 bedroom house with a fenced garden and fairly high walls so dogs can’t escape. We have a park nearby and I also drive if longer walks are needed. I used to work at a vets, so I’m very experienced with animals and have looked after many cats and dogs in the past.

Loving, patient, and calm, your cat’s comfort always comes first.
About: In terms of cats I have grown up with 3 of my own- Lola, Belle & Lunar, and have experience of their completely different personalities and preferences.

I will take guidance from the owner & adjust my approach accordingly 😊

“Thank you, Rachel, for taking such great care of Lady over the last August bank holiday weekend while we were in Bournemouth. Lady was so excited to see you every time you arrived and she came back to us very happy. Thanks for being flexible and looking after her at your home instead when our plans needed to change, for collecting her / dropping her off each day and for your regular updates. We knew Lady was in safe hands with Rachel. Will book again next time we are visiting. Thanks again! :)”
About: I’ve had cats since I was 12 years old, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I absolutely love cats and understand their different personalities from playful and energetic to shy and independent. I’m confident with feeding, litter tray cleaning, playtime, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own space.
About: Personally I was never allowed a dog when I was a child, I have previously owned different pets including rabbits, guinea pigs and fish. This just increased my want of a dog, so my first and longest job I have had was a professional dog walker and throughout the years I have looked after many different dogs. I am currently a student at the University of South Wales and with a minimal social life I am currently widely available for any services. I have previously walked and cared for dogs of all different sizes and shapes. I have also had to adapt to different medical and dietary requirements.
About: Nijo & Jenny Cats have always been part of our life, and I have experience caring for a variety of breeds and personalities, including long-haired Persian and Himalayan cats as well as domestic short-haired cats. We currently share my home with our domestic shorthair cat, Simba. I understand that cats thrive when they feel secure, comfortable and able to maintain their routines. Our home is set up with cats in mind, including a cat tree, water fountain, toys and treats to help keep them engaged, stimulated and happy. Cats are welcome throughout the house and are treated as part of the family. Whether your cat enjoys attention and playtime or prefers a quieter environment, We will ensure they receive the care, affection and space they need to feel completely at home.
“First time hiring a cat sitter and we couldn’t be happier with Amber. Our cat was a little shy but she still made sure we knew she was ok. The updates and photos via the app were really appreciated.”
“I am extremely grateful to Dylan for watching my digs while I was away. Dylan was great my dogs and they were well cared for while I was away. I had no concerns abs would definitely use Dylan again.”
About: I'm a huge animal lover. I've always looked after pets since a child, I got a lot of my experience from my aunties animal farm. I would bathe, feed, walk and learn how to take care of pets since a young age. From puppies to senior dogs, animals as small as birds, ducks,ferrets and bigger animals like sheep, pigs, cows, horses etc. I finally met my furr baby almost 3 years ago and become a dog mum. BEST THING I EVER DID. I work from home. We make playing, going out on big walks in nature and snuggles a priority. Pet care is hugely important and easily takes place as a top priority in our household. We often bathe our Ruben after a muddy walk, give him a brush and spoil him with a treaties. I have fenced garden, fully secure. I live opposite a huge mountain, with fantastic walks in nature. I have a little dog to keep your pet company. I've never crated my dog Ruben, he's more than ok to snuggle up on the sofa.

“She has been absolutely wonderful with Adis. She has been able to accommodate us very early in the morning, has always been punctual, and is extremely thorough in the care she provides. 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. Adis is almost 19 years old and blind, so he needs gentle, attentive care, and she has looked after him so well. I feel very comfortable knowing he is in such kind and capable hands. Highly recommended.”

“Madi was really wonderful with Nelly. Drop off and pick up was easy and Nelly seemed to have a great time! Madi kept me updated and provided photos which kept me at ease. Can highly recommend if you need a good dog sitter for your dog.”
About: Grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve wanted to be a veterinarian when I grew up but I couldn’t as I wouldn’t be able to do the things they do to animals cause I get so emotional. I did animal care training with ACT and worked with all animals. I’m a stay at home mam so dogs won’t ever be left alone during the day unless I drop my daughter to school which is only 5 mins down the road from where I live so can talk toe dog or dogs with me to drop her off at school then take them for a long walk around my local park I have a small garden with a gate right down to the floor so they can’t escape. They will have free roam of the house (except upstairs)
“I can't recommend Rose enough! From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely cares about animals. I received regular updates, including photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was in good hands. If you're looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter, look no further than Rose.”

About: Hi, I’m Izzy! I’ve got lots of experience with dogs—dogsitting for family and friends, plus volunteering at Cardiff Dogs Home where I completed training in understanding and handling dogs. I love getting out for walks with dogs, even though my lifestyle doesn’t allow for one of my own right now. Expect lots of happy adventure photos along the way! I work shifts 3x 12 hours shifts a week, and have 4 days off a week. I have rotas a few months in advance.

I may be available for overnight stays however depends on my shift pattern. Would be looking at arranging a short 10min visit before any bookings, to meet and greet and show me where things are on your home.
“Rachel was fantastic! We enjoyed meeting Rachel before we went on holiday, which meant we could introduce our dog and take him on a walk together. Rachel really wanted to understand his routine and what works for him, which was very thorough of her. Great communication everyday when we were away, which meant we could enjoy our holiday knowing our dog was well looked after. 100% recommend Rachel! We will definitely be booking her again if we ever need to go away. Thank you so much, Rachel x”
About: Personally I was never allowed a dog when I was a child, I have previously owned different pets including rabbits, guinea pigs and fish. This just increased my want of a dog, so my first and longest job I have had was a professional dog walker and throughout the years I have looked after many different dogs. I am currently a student at the University of South Wales and with a minimal social life I am currently widely available for any services. I have previously walked and cared for dogs of all different sizes and shapes. I have also had to adapt to different medical and dietary requirements.

“Amber was punctual and great with my bouncy retriever, Dorothy. Being able to have peace of mind that she's getting a decent walk when I'm out a lot of the day is great. It's nice to return to a happy dog and an informative report card. Will definitely use Amber again.”
About: I'm a huge animal lover. I've always looked after pets since a child, I got a lot of my experience from my aunties animal farm. I would bathe, feed, walk and learn how to take care of pets since a young age. From puppies to senior dogs, animals as small as birds, ducks,ferrets and bigger animals like sheep, pigs, cows, horses etc. I finally met my furr baby almost 3 years ago and become a dog mum. BEST THING I EVER DID. I work from home. We make playing, going out on big walks in nature and snuggles a priority. Pet care is hugely important and easily takes place as a top priority in our household. We often bathe our Ruben after a muddy walk, give him a brush and spoil him with a treaties. I have fenced garden, fully secure. I live opposite a huge mountain, with fantastic walks in nature. I have a little dog to keep your pet company. I've never crated my dog Ruben, he's more than ok to snuggle up on the sofa.

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.

“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 couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate Mary is about animals. She took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, which instantly put me at ease. While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which made such a difference and reassured me that Rosie was happy and well looked after. It was obvious Rosie felt comfortable, relaxed, and even a little spoiled! When I returned, everything was exactly as I’d hoped — a happy, healthy dog and a home that was just as I left it. I would absolutely recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, and I will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my dog!”

About: I have a 5 year old labrador and I'm very used to walking him for 1 hour daily. I grew up with dogs and lived near a farm as a young child. I also had 2 pet persian house cats as well as budgie's and hamsters. I work full-time but this is agile, balancing office based with working from home. I am usually free during the evenings and on fridays as well as the weekends. But this can be flexible if i offer a boarding service as i can agile work. I have a fenced garden so everything is safe and enclosed, i also live on a quiet estate where the road is not busy. I like to spend time with the animals when they are in my company, as long as a blanket is on the sofa and bed they are welcome to lay on this.

“Being new to the area I was really struggling when I found myself needing short notice dog care. Parker and Hannah have made leaving my dogs easier for me. They are so lovely and so helpful. They allowed me into their home to confirm it was safe for my dogs. The dogs had regular walks, cuddles and the best time. I will 100% be using Parker and Hannah again if I ever need them and would highly recommend their service. Thanks guys x”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Bruno received from Faith. From our very first meeting, we immediately felt confident that Bruno would be in excellent hands. Faith took the time to ask all the right questions about Bruno’s routine, habits, diet, medical needs, and both his good and more challenging traits, which truly reassured us. Throughout the day after dropping Bruno off, communication was fantastic. We received plenty of photos and videos of his daily activities, which gave us complete peace of mind and confirmed that we had chosen the right person to look after our beloved dog. Bruno was clearly cared for with genuine attention and kindness. We would fully recommend Faith to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and loving dog carer — leaving your dog with her really does come with total peace of mind.”
