“Emily is such a kind person, we are very comfortable to leave our Mia with her. So thankful she could look after Mia when we had a long day-out, and we will be using her services very soon as we're going away for a few days. Our dog is anxious and she needs extra love and attention that Emily is happy to provide ❤️ truly, we could not be happier that we found Emily!”

“Very much appreciated the patience and care Jon and his wife took whilst looking after Polly. She appreciated the relaxing walks in the orchard near the house and they were very understanding when managing her reactivity. I would absolutely book them again.”

“Cosmo loved Ellana looking after him. She really took care of him when he was under the weather and went above and beyond. She gave us plenty of updates which reassured us, as we hadn't used a sitter before. She also left our house as clean as we left it. Will definitely use her again”

“Excellent can't fault Meg in anyway, would definitely be getting her to look after caeser again, by the looks of all the photos he really enjoyed her being there and looking after him, Meg understands the needs of different dogs and is caring towards there needs. Can't fault her in anyway thank you so much for looking after caeser”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and sizes. I regularly provide boarding, walks, and day care in our home in Peterborough. We live in a spacious house with a garden, close to several parks, where pets can enjoy safe walks and playtime. Animals are treated with love, attention, and care, as if they were part of our family. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my priority I have a flexible routine that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets every day. I am available throughout the week and on weekends, making sure your furry friend gets all the attention, playtime, and walks they need. Pet care easily fits into my daily life, as I enjoy spending time outdoors and caring for animals. Pets in my care are always treated with love and respect. I live in a spacious home with a secure garden where dogs can play safely. Our neighborhood has beautiful parks nearby for daily walks. I create a calm, safe, and trustworthy environment, ensuring pets feel comfortable and owners have peace of mind. If needed, I can also follow specific routines or instructions to match each pet’s needs.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and had my own dog for over 16 years,from when I was a child all the way into adulthood. That experience taught me so much about the love, patience, and attention dogs need at every stage of life. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and understand how to care for them gently and attentively. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every dog like my own. I pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs, whether that means extra playtime, slow and calm walks, or just a lot of affection. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals, it’s not just a side job for me, it’s something I truly enjoy I’m currently working part time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy and make time for. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for regular walks, drop-in visits, or extended care depending on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m happy to fit pet care into my day. When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s specific needs, whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medication, or playtime preferences. I always give them plenty of attention.
About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do occasionally — it’s a big part of my life. I’ve grown up around dogs and have gained hands-on experience working in a kennel alongside other experienced dog walkers and trainers, which has given me a good understanding of different breeds, personalities and individual needs. I also have my own working-line Belgian Malinois, who is advanced trained. Living and working with a breed that requires structure, consistency and both mental and physical stimulation has given me valuable experience with training, enrichment and understanding canine behaviour. I’m currently an STSK9 student and working towards graduating in September 2026, so I’m continually developing my knowledge and skills in modern dog training and behaviour. I’m particularly passionate about providing dogs with the right balance of exercise, enrichment, structure and downtime. Most importantly, I genuinely care about the dogs I look after. I take the time to understand each dog as an individual and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, stimulated and loved while they’re in my care. I work with dogs full-time, so caring for dogs is a big part of my everyday life and something I genuinely enjoy. I also have my own Belgian Malinois, who is very friendly and gets on really well with other dogs. We love getting out for long walks and exploring together, so I’m used to keeping dogs active, happy and well cared for. I’d be more than happy to welcome another dog into our routine and give them plenty of attention, company and love while they’re with me. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and settled in my care. As I work with dogs full-time, I’m confident handling different personalities and making sure each dog gets the attention, exercise and routine they need. In my home, I provide a calm and welcoming environment where dogs can relax and feel at home. I also have my own Belgian Malinois, who is very friendly and great with other dogs and who is crate trained indoors/overnight. I’m happy to adapt to each pet’s individual routine, including their feeding, walks, playtime and any specific needs. I have a nice spacious back garden which is fully fenced (6 ft) and provide fun activities out there for the dogs.

About: I’m lucy, i offer pet sitter dog walking drop in visits to your beautiful animals, i want to help you and your animals I am here to assist you with all that you and your animals need, i am dbs checked i am insured and i am fully first aid trained i have always lived with a wide a range of animals and i have a lot of experience within myself and volunteering and my job. Pet care has always been a main priority for me it fits into my daily routine perfectly with my two dogs two cats and two guinea pigs feeding, walks, cuddles, care, and plenty of love becomes into my routine with all these and I love doing it and meeting everyone else’s routines and animals that all have a different and great routine all together. In my home with my pets I clean them out make sure they always have water no matter what especially in the heat or on a dog walk, I often take a ball for one of my dogs and the other she likes to just walk along side of us, there so good letting me brush and wash them sometimes tricky but not as bad as has been before but my cats are so good with minimum treats brushing and my guniea pigs are such an amazing company aswell, in a owners home will always be dependable on what the owner wants me to do and depends on the well being of the animals wether they have illnesses or not or anything like any anxiety or allergies. As long as the animals are safe and happy.
“Oscar has great communication, he accepted our request at very short notice due to change in plans. The introduction was smooth, on the day he was there on time as promised. He kept us updated constantly and our Fudge seemed happy at the end of the day. Thanks 🙏🏼”


About: I have always had a strong love for animals, especially dogs, as I grew up surrounded by lots of different pets. Being around animals from a young age has helped me develop a natural understanding of how to care for them, be patient with them, and make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable. My experience as a dog sitter is something I really enjoy because I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and needs. I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, fresh air and companionship while their owners are away. One of my favourite parts of dog sitting is taking dogs out for walks. I enjoy giving them the opportunity to explore, exercise and have fun, while also benefiting from being outdoors myself. Going for regular walks with a dog helps me stay active and supports my own health and wellbeing, making it something that I find both enjoyable and rewarding. Overall, looking after dogs is something I am passionate about. Growing up with pets, combined with my experience caring for animals, has taught me to be responsible, caring and attentive. I would always treat someone else's dog with the same care and respect that I would give to my own pets. Working from home allows me to provide dogs with the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to take regular breaks to feed them, let them outside, give them attention and take them out for walks. Being at home also means dogs are not left alone for long periods of time, which can help them feel more comfortable and settled. I can easily fit walks and playtime around my working schedule while still making sure my work commitments are met. I really enjoy being around dogs while I work, and I believe my home-based routine is ideal for dog sitting. It allows me to give each dog plenty of care and attention while providing a safe, calm and loving environment for them. Although my garden is on the smaller side, it is fully fenced and provides a safe and secure space for dogs to have regular toilet breaks and get some fresh air throughout the day. I understand that the garden is not intended to replace proper walks and exercise, but it is a convenient and secure space for quick toilet breaks whenever needed. I also live next to a beautiful bank and walking area, which is perfect for giving dogs plenty of exercise and outdoor stimulation. I regularly take my family’s dog there for walks and really enjoy spending time outdoors with him. The area provides a lovely environment for dogs to explore, get some exercise and enjoy their surroundings. Having both a secure garden and such a beautiful walking area nearby means I can provide dogs with regular toilet breaks, exercise and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
“Ellie was really lovely, and accommodating - doing a last minute sit for me when I was going to stay with a friend. I never met her as she had to complete her work day before coming, but she found her way in smoothly and everything went blissfully. She sent me regular updates every couple of hours - unusually frequent, and I really enjoyed seeing my two having a good time - a little tug at the heart strings and a feeling of love every time I got a new photo. I’ve asked my usual sitters to send more frequent updates now! I’d thoroughly recommend Ellie and would have her back in a heartbeat! Thank you Ellie, from Sandra, Yola and Flo ☺️🐾🐾”

About: I have had animals all my life. I have a genuine love of taking care of them. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Guinea Pigs and horses. I currently own two dogs, a cat, Guinea pigs and two ponies. I have worked with animals most of my life. I worked for the animal charity Wood Green Animal Shelter on field section, worked at a dog kennels, cattery and also worked in the hospitality industry. I have a clean driving licence. I have good knowledge of taking care of a variety of animals which has given me the experience and knowledge needed. I love the psychology of animals and understanding their body language. I am a single mum of three daughters. Two go to work and one is disabled and goes to a fantastic school in Alconbury near Huntingdon. So im at home alone a lot. I have been looking for a job that can is flexible and active but also to do something I love and have experience doing. I have a lot of free so this type of work suits me down to the ground. My home has a big garden that is fully fenced all the way round. I have tiled floors indoors which is easy cleaning. My house is open plan but I do have a utility room for a quiet place.
“Maria looked after our three boys for five days while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the moment we left, she gave us complete peace of mind by sending regular updates and lovely photos every day, so we always knew they were happy, relaxed, and being well cared for. She made sure they had their daily walks, lots of love and attention, and treated them as if they were her own. She also kindly accommodated us by taking them to a pre-paid local secure dog field, which we really appreciated. When we arrived home, the house was spotless and exactly as we’d left it, bedding had been washed for our return, which was such a lovely bonus after travelling. Most importantly, our boys absolutely adored Maria. It was obvious they had built a real bond with her, and they were genuinely sad to see her leave! We would recommend Maria without hesitation to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter. We will 100% be booking her again in the future. Thank you so much, Maria.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, my father is a naturalist, and I was a small scale farmer for ten years. I’ve had plenty of experience with dogs and cats, and recently helped with my friend take care of many dogs I work around your pets, not the other way around, they come first.it entirely depends on your pets needs and routine.it’s important to me that they are not feeling too much of a change. My home is safe and secure, and there is green space near me for exercise.i offer a clean and comfortable environment for them too feel at home

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. My dad was the Chief Dog Handler at the RAF, so I grew up around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities from a very young age. Being surrounded by them throughout my childhood gave me a natural understanding of their behaviour, needs, and routines. I absolutely adore dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace and lots of affection, I’ll tailor my care to suit their individual needs! I work Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 4:30pm, which means I’m available for pet care visits after work on weekdays. I’m happy to provide evening drop-ins for feeding, companionship, playtime, litter tray cleaning, or letting dogs out for toilet breaks and exercise. At weekends, I have much greater flexibility and can offer visits throughout the day to suit your pet’s needs. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet’s routine, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate schedules and provide reliable, attentive care. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet care fits naturally into my week and is something I look forward to! I currently offer drop-in visits only, allowing pets to remain comfortable in their own familiar environment while receiving the care and attention they need. Although I no longer live with my family dog, I still see her every day. I regularly spend time playing with her in the house and garden, take her for walks, and provide care such as feeding and companionship whenever my parents are out or away. This has helped me maintain hands-on experience with caring for a dog’s daily needs and routine. During drop-in visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, playtime, companionship, toilet breaks, walks (if requested), and basic cleaning such as litter tray maintenance for cats. I understand that every pet is different, so I always aim to follow the owner’s instructions carefully and maintain their usual routine to help them feel safe, happy, and relaxed while you’re away!
About: I have had a border collie for 13 years, shi tzu for 11 years and chihuahua for 8 years. I have self thought how to teach dogs to listen to me and to behave. My dogs are very good on the lead and at home when I am not there. They know when it is play time because I am given them routine. I love giving cuddles to my dogs. I care for my mums dog always when she is away and my mum always says her dog is coming back with better behaviour. Also, I groom my dogs so if you are interested then we can always talk about it and see what we can do. Looking forward to meeting your pooch. I am working full time Mon to Friday. My routine is always to walked the dogs in the morning for an hour. They get to run off the lead near the river (safe place) and evening time same. If someone is at home then during the day they can go to the garden. On my day off we are walking in the forest for few hours. I have fenced garden and my dogs are friendly with other dogs. During the day they have to be downstairs but night time they can sleep upstairs with me.

About: I have worked at a doggy day care for 4 years, and cared for family and friends dogs for longer. I am DBS checked and insured. Caring for pets is part of my everyday life and something I genuinely enjoy. Alongside my experience working in doggy day care, I make time in my routine for walks, play, feeding, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I understand how important consistency is, so I do my best to keep pets comfortable and happy while sticking to their usual routine. I love getting outdoors and playing with the dogs, as well as curling up on the sofa for a calm evening in. I believe dogs are happiest when their routine stays consistent, so I follow owners’ instructions carefully and provide reliable, attentive care in their home. From walks and feeding to playtime and companionship, I aim to make dogs feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while treating both their home and routine with respect. I also love sending cute updates to owners showing what we have been up too.

Cosmo loved Ellana looking after him. She really took care of him when he was under the weather and went above and beyond. She gave us plenty of updates which reassured us, as we hadn't used a sitter before. She also left our house as clean as we left it. Will definitely use her again

Ellana looked after our GSD Samson for us while we were away getting married. She was lovely with him, and he was very happy to stay with her for a couple of days. She was very good at keeping us updated while we were away, and even liaised with a dog chaperone who was coming to collect Samson to bring him to our wedding without any fuss. She left the house tidy and as if no-one had stayed! We would definitely recommend booking Ellana for dog walks or house sitting, especially if you have big dogs, as it was clear that she was very comfortable and experienced with this. We will definitely be booking again next time we go away! Thanks so much xxx

Ellanna looked after my little dog perfectly. She was on time and I left my dog with her for a two day duration. She respected the house and made sure it was how I left it upon my return. Frosty my pug loved having her as company and she made sure he had his medicine daily and took him for walks. Thank you very much and I will not hesitate in using her again.
