“Kelly looked after Rocky with great care, particularly through a thunderstorm, which he hates. Kelly kept him close and reassured him. It was lovely to see photos of Rocky looking relaxed.”


2. NATHALI B.

“Nathali is an amazing dog sitter!! She is so attentive, playful and caring. Our dog adores her. She is completely trustworthy and has the most invigorating energy. Cannot recommend Nathali enough.”


3. Sherry B.
“Sherry has been walking our lively Labrador for almost a year now. Eddie loves sherry and they have a great bond. He is always so excited to see her and loves the walks and games she plays with him. Would highly recommend sherry to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog walker!”


4. Becca C.

“Becca did a great job with our rescue dog. We were nervous to leave our dog with someone new as it had been a while but it all went very smooth. On top of keeping our doggy happy she is very responsive when we had questions and left the house very neat and tidy. Thankyou again!”


5. Kirsty W.

“I would 100% recommend Kirsty, and will definitely use her again in the future. Couldn’t ask for any more - she is kind, reliable, and totally trustworthy. Kirsty stayed in my home to look after my dog for 2 weeks, and it was great knowing he was in such safe hands. Kirsty sent me updates and photos, and when we got home both my dog and home had clearly been looked after so well. I have only positive things to say about the whole experience with Kirsty”


6. Maria L.

“We couldn’t have been more impressed by Maria she was an amazing dog/ house sitter for our 3 dogs. We got lots of photos showing the dogs were having a great time and our home was so well looked after while we were away and left so lovely to come back to. We would definitely recommend Maria and hope she can sit again for us soon!”


7. Tanya K.

“Tanya looked after my cocker spaniel Henry for one night and I was very happy with the whole experience. Tanya was very warm and welcoming and I had no concerns leaving Henry with her. I received 2 updates during the evening letting me know that Henry was fine (which was unprompted by me but very much appreciated). The next day when I picked him up he almost seemed like he didn’t want to come home! I would 100% recommend Tanya and will definitely use again :)”


8. Jade A.
“We have know Jade for a number of years. She is a lovely pleasant honest and trustworthy person to know. She has stayed at our house and looked after our dog Freddie. He is very happy to stay with her and enjoys seeing her. We 100% trust Jade with Freddie and staying in our home.”


9. Lili T.

“Lili looked after our dog overnight. She was really friendly with great communication, and took great care with both our dog and our place. We came back to a happy little pup and the place as we left it. Will definitely use Lili again, she was so reliable and we loved her updates through the night. Thank you for making us feel at ease!”


10. Sanjana B.

“Sanjana house and animal sat for us so we could go away guilt-free to a family wedding and truly relax. She kept in contact regularly with photos and videos. The house was exactly as we had left it. When we got back the dog and the cat were happy to see us but we didn't get the usual 'telling off' from the cat that we normally do if we go out, so that's a positive review in itself!”


11. ahmed m.

“Thank you so much for the most amazing pet-sitting and house-sitting experience I've ever come across. Ahmed is extremely good with animals, he looked after my 9 year old Pekingese dog in my home for 12 nights while I was away. His attention to detail is impeccable. He even trained my doggy so that he is better behaved. Ahmed is extremely polite and attentive to pet and house needs, what an amazing job done. He kept in touch with me throughout his stay which I really needed, sent me lovely photos of how my doggy was doing and took care of everything. I will definitely be requesting his services again and highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a pet-sitter. Thank you so much, you're an absolute star and the best I've come across ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

13. Sophie H.
About: I have taken care of dogs since very young. Starting with a family dog, a border collie, who we were lucky enough to have from a pup to 14! To now, I have a 3 year old vizlsa who I have had since 9weeks.. I have trained Him since he was a tiny puppy and now have my very own Velcro dog! I also look after friends dogs when they are away, these range in size and age from a 8 year old kelpie to a 2 year old cocker poo. I currently work as a serving firefighter, my shift pattern allows me a lot of time off. However each week is not the same for me, I work an 8 day rotation so each week is slightly different. Please feel free to message me with queries. I have a large fenced garden that backs onto an even larger field, my fur baby loves to go out there and play frisbee! I also have 3 different walks on my doorstep, some of which are very quiet! I also have a large crate/ bed that can be used if you wish.


14. Zoe H.
About: I love all animals, but most of my experience is with cats. That being said, I’ve cared for many dogs in the past, as well as other small animals such as hamsters. I do my best to match the energy I get from the animals. If they are shy and quiet, I won’t push them to the point of discomfort. Equally if they are playful and cuddly, they will get as much cuddles and playtime as they need! Currently I work full time, but this will be gradually reducing as my job is high intensity and I am pregnant. I am free anytime I am not working, and I work shifts which differ every week, and as I write my own rotation, with enough notice, I can work my rota around what you need. My approach is to match the energy the pet gives me; I won’t push a pet out of their comfort zone, and will respect their wishes as much as possible.


15. Hannah M.
“Hannah was born to look after animals. She is fantastic with our bengal and has looked after my parents dog which was a terrier frequently. I would trust her implicitly with my animal. I can not recommend her enough.”


16. Carla A.
“Carla has baby (dog) sat for me multiple times and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. My boys just love to see her coming and I feel 100% relaxed and confident that they are looked after and loved like they are her own! Carla is friendly, reliable & loves all animals!”


17. Lily T.

“Lily was great with our dogs Willow, Jago and Nova. They all seemed very relaxed and happy after she looked after them. Lily was reliable and responded to messages quickly. We'd definitely be happy to book with Lily again.”


18. Mylinh T.
About: I’m a responsible and caring adult who can be flexible. I love to go on walk myself and would love to have your puppy to accompany me. I love taking care of dogs, I helped dog sit my friends dog from time to time, my sister has a two French bull dogs which I have taken care off, including walking, playing with them and feeding them. I’m free most Fridays and weekends and half term. Can take puppies out for walks during morning, lunch and evening if needed. I work from home Monday - Thursday with a flexible role.

I can take your puppy down to the park for walks when needed and give them all the hugs and cuddles they want!!


19. Storm S.

“Storm looked after my 13 week old puppy for an evening. She asked lots of questions about her care and routine. My puppy was in very capable hands and will definitely be asking storm back. Would 10/10 recommend. Thanks again storm 😀”


20. Zoe T.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. I understand every dog has unique needs, whether it’s extra patience for training, gentle care for older pups, or plenty of energy for long walks and playtime. I create a safe, loving environment and always treat dogs like family. Growing up I worked for a pet shop and dealt with many dogs and dog owners so I feel as though I can be trusted to care for a dog. My partner and I have always loved dogs of all kinds and grew up in a dog friendly environments. I currently work from home and commute to my office about once a week but this is really flexible since there is no set days I need to be in. Therefore I am around all day at home and can take regular breaks caring for pets. I love to keep fit and can exercise a dog on country/nature walks 😊 The flat which i live has a lift and can take regular breaks going outside. I live near a lovely park which I like to take walks in that would be a lovely experience for a pup.
