House Sitting Waltham Forest

“Olivia was excellent! She was fantastic with our puppy (who is a handful as he's teething and full of energy) and went above and beyond to keep him happy. She was also incredibly accommodating and flexible with us. Can’t recommend her enough!”

Gemma R.

“Solange was fab! She sent us regular videos of what Pongo was upto and left the lat really tidy. He seemed to really enjoy his time with her. Would definitely book again :)”

Taryn T.

“Ellie is so great with Biggie! He can be nervous around new people but has warmed to her straight away. She took great care of him & he’s always sad to see her leave!”

Carla R.

“Giovanna was an absolute dream as both a cat sitter and house sitter. We came home to such a welcoming, well looked after home, and communication throughout was excellent. She was incredibly easy to work with and, most importantly, Benji clearly adores her. He was treated like a king while we were away! We’d highly recommend Giovanna and would happily book her again :)”

“Beth looked after Maggie and our house brilliantly. It was obvious that Beth loves dogs from the moment she arrived to meet Maggie - they bonded immediately. Beth is very calm, warm and friendly. She responded quickly to messages and during the stay sent photos to reassure us that all was well. I have no hesitation in recommending Beth as a pet and house sitter and would definitely hire her again.”

“Excellent dog and cat sitter! Spent lots of time making friends with them both so they were super comfortable while we were away. Made our holiday much more relaxed knowing they were in very safe hands. Couldn’t speak more highly of her.”

About: As a lifelong dog and cat lover, I have many years of experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I'm friendly, reliable, and genuinely enjoy providing every dog and cat with the love, attention, and care they deserve, ensuring they feel happy, comfortable, and safe while in my care. I have a large, secure back garden and am ideally located close to Hollow Ponds and Lloyd Park, offering plenty of opportunities for enjoyable walks, exercise, and outdoor play. I’m mainly available on weekends, when I have plenty of time to give pets my full attention. Am also available Monday - Friday from 6.30-8am and from 4.30 pm to offer walks, home visits etc. I love spending my free time walking, playing, and caring for dogs to keep them happy and active. Whether in my home or yours, I follow each pet’s normal routine, keeping them comfortable and relaxed. I provide walks, feeding, play, and affection, always focusing on their safety and happiness.

“Oliver was absolutely brilliant with Millie. She seems to have had an amazing time with him. I would not hesitate to leave Millie with Oliver again.”

“The best dog sitter! Our nervous rescue dog absolutely loves him. Agustin dog sat for 3 nights this time and sent us updates and photos each day, our dog looked so happy and relaxed and we cannot recommend him highly enough 🙂”

Sarah B.

“Tien was great with our energetic Dachshund puppy, Bruce! It was the first time leaving Bruce with someone for the day, but Tien made us feel completely at ease, so we had full confidence. Tien sent updates which was nice and Bruce had clearly had a great active day!”

Juho R.

“Katherine house sat for my 2 year old Labrador Lenny whilst I was out for the day. Lenny can sometimes still be full of energy and can be a bit stubborn on walks but Katherine was able to provide all the walks, care and attention that Lenny required. I would highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

Fraser R.

“Roshni is an excellent dogsitter. She housitted for the evening at short notice and she was very attentive. She sent us lots of updates and it was clear Fraggle was having a lovely relaxed evening. We'd use Roshni anytime!”

Florrie M.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Otto and Gigi! They were so well looked after, and we loved receiving updates and photos while we were away. It was clear they were cared for with so much love and attention. We came home to two very happy, relaxed dogs. Thank you so much, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you and will definitely book again!”

About: Ever since growing up with my own golden retriever (Ellie), I've known that I always need to be in close proximity to a pet. More recently, I raised my parents' puppy during the pandemic and often dog sit for them. My flatmate also brought a cat into our London flat that I have helped to look after for the past two years so I have experience with both dogs and cats. Throughout my life, I have taken instruction well on how best to interact with others' pets (e.g., don't get them too excited, they need play time to feel comfortable with you) and always exercise patience. I wfh 4/5 weekdays and go into the office every Wednesday. The times I go into the office can be flexible as I don't have set times, and I am only 30 minutes away in case of emergencies. I'll spend a weekend with my parents' dog in the Midlands once a month, but then I'm in London for the rest of the time. It can be anxiety-inducing to trust a stranger with not only your pet, but your home. I promise to be understanding of your pet's needs, but also your needs. Whether that's needing regular updates or for things to be done a particular way, I will do my best to keep your space and routine as normal as possible.

About: I’ve been lucky enough to have pets for most of my life 🐾, so I have lots of experience caring for dogs of all ages and through all their stages (puppies, seniors, or needing extra care when sick, after surgery, or in heat). Since my own pets live abroad, I really miss having animals around ❤️, which is why I’ve been caring for my friends’ dogs to keep that special bond. I truly love spending time with animals, giving them all the love, care, and attention they deserve. I’d be so excited to look after your furry friend 🐶 and treat them like my own ✨💖🐾 I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. I’m available throughout the week and would love to spend that time making sure they feel happy, loved, and well cared for ❤️. If pets stay with me: In my home, doggos are family 🐾. They’ll get plenty of love, playtime, fresh water, and all the comforts of their usual routine. Whether they love cuddles or prefer independence, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for 💕. House sitting/drop-ins: When I care for furrys in their own home 🏡, I stick closely to their routine so everything feels familiar and comforting. From feeding and walks to belly rubs and companionship, I’ll make sure they feel loved and never lonely 🐶🐱. Dog walks: Walks are tailored to your pup’s style 🐕, so it may be a calm stroll or a fun play session at the park. I make sure they get the exercise, attention, and enrichment they need, returning home happy and relaxed 🌿✨.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in the house so have many many years experience with caring for them and their many personalities. My mother is also a dog groomer so I’ve spent many days helping to care for the dogs. With a gentle tone and lots of playtime your little ones will feel right at home with me I’m currently working full time 9-5:30 in Hoxton, with one work from home day a week (I live in Turnpike Lane/Hornsey area). I work in a big sunny dog friendly office (so lots of furry friends about) with parks nearby and an outside space, so if you’re happy for me to bring your little one in with me during the daytimes I can do boarding full time. If you’d prefer me to stay at your place or for your little one not to be in the office, I can do boarding one single day during the week (I would work from home) and long weekends Fri-Mon (I would work from home Fri and Mon). I have plenty of time for morning, lunchtime, and evening walks, in and out of the office. My job is pretty flexible so I can definitely accommodate, just let me know what you need. My home is very secure, with two doors before the exit and a gate before you get to the road, which is pretty quiet and slow (speed bump are in place). I can easily crate your little one if needed, plenty of space.

“Jordan did an amazing job looking after our dog, Fern. Our instructions were followed to a T and we returned to a lovely clean house. Thanks again!”

About: We're Seb and Hannah, a couple in our early thirties living in a ground-floor flat with a garden in Leytonstone. Dogs have been part of both our lives for as long as we can remember, and looking after them is something we genuinely love doing. Between us we've grown up with all sorts: labradors, cockapoos, springer spaniels and cocker spaniels, so we're used to a real range of personalities and energy levels. Seb grew up in Cornwall, where walking dogs by the sea and across the countryside was just part of everyday life. Hannah grew up in Lancashire with spaniels who always wanted to be out on the hills, at the park, or playing fetch. The contrast between Seb's labradors, who were happy snoozing most of the day before wanting attention in the evening, and Hannah's spaniels, who wanted to be involved in absolutely everything, taught us early on that every dog is different and needs to be looked after on their own terms. That's probably what sets us apart: we're not just dog lovers, we're properly experienced with lots of different breeds and temperaments, and we know how to read what a dog actually needs rather than applying a one size fits all routine. Our flat makes this easy too. Our ground floor garden means toilet breaks are never a rush, and our quiet residential street is perfect for calmer, low key strolls throughout the day, whatever the time. We've lived in Leytonstone for almost three years and know it inside out, especially the best walking spots, so for dogs that need more space to run we're always heading out to Epping Forest, Hollow Ponds or Wanstead Park. We're keen walkers ourselves, so keeping up with even the most energetic dogs has never been a problem. We dog sit often, both for our parents and for friends, and we always try to keep things as close to a dog's normal routine as possible. We regularly look after a friend's whippet, who comes to stay with us because we keep him on his usual morning and afternoon walks with plenty of relaxing in between. We've looked after a friend's rescue Staffy, Lana, who preferred shorter walks and made up for it by wanting to sit on top of you given half the chance. And we've looked after Seb's brother's springer spaniel, Ted, who's probably the most people obsessed dog we've ever met and full of energy, which suits us fine as we're pretty active ourselves. Seb works four days a week for an architecture practice in Bermondsey, so he's free for full days of dog care on Fridays and all weekend, and Hannah works in communications for a local council. We can both work from home on Tuesdays and/or Thursdays, so we can take dogs from Thursday morning to Sunday evening. Between us we can be flexible, from a few hours to a full day to a few days once your dog knows us. We know how important it is to find people you trust, so we're always happy to meet beforehand somewhere you can see for yourself, and to keep in regular contact while we're looking after your dog. Pet care fits really naturally into our week. Seb works four days, so he's free to look after your dog on Fridays and right through the weekend, and we both work from home on Tuesday or Thursday too, so there's always at least one of us around for most of the week. On the days we're working from home, we build walks into the day as a matter of course, one before work in the morning, another at lunchtime, and a final one after work. We're early risers by nature, so mornings are never rushed, and we're generally very flexible people who can shift our own routine around to suit your pooch rather than the other way round. Weekends are when we really stretch our legs. We always set aside time for one longer walk, usually five to ten miles, so if your dog loves getting out and properly tiring themselves out, weekends with us are ideal. Not a problem if not though as we’re more than happy to keep it chilled and potter around the house or garden. Our flat is the ground floor of a terraced house, with a private fenced garden that's secure for safe time outdoors. It's a two bed flat with a separate living room, bathroom and kitchen, plenty of space for a dog to settle in. We're extremely clean and tidy as we're renting, and the same goes for the garden, kept neat but with enough left a bit wild for nature too. We take safety and trust seriously when it comes to looking after our friends' pets, and a lot of that comes down to knowing the dog properly. We always ask owners to walk us through everything beforehand, what the dog needs, how often they're used to toilet breaks or walks, and anything specific about their personality, since we know from our own experience that every dog is different and needs to be looked after on their own terms. Where we can, we try to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel settled rather than unsettled by somewhere new. We stay in the same room as the dog at all times unless told otherwise, and we work best with clear instructions from owners so we're all on the same page. We're always happy to meet beforehand somewhere you can see for yourself too, and we keep in regular contact with owners throughout, whether that's a quick check in or answering any questions at all.

About: Having grown up as a devoted owner of dogs and cats, my lifelong love for these animals is the foundation of my pet care.

My preference is for calmer dogs who enjoy settling down after a delightful walk, ensuring they feel loved and at ease throughout their stay. I go the extra mile—administering meds, ensuring a clean space. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority. Choose a committed caregiver for a tail-wagging, genuine approach to ensure your dog’s joy and health. I prioritize your pet’s care seamlessly into my daily routine while working from home.

Whether it’s my pet-friendly flat or your space, safety is paramount. My services are tailored to create a nurturing atmosphere, ensuring your pet’s well-being and comfort throughout their stay.

“Doria is an amazing cat sitter! She is communicative, responsible and really took her time to get to know our Pumpkin, despite him acting like a moody teenager at first. In the end, he was clearly happy to have had her around and we’d not hesitate for a second to book her again.”
