“Cannot recommend Elysia enough!! We would not have anyone else look after our cat when we're away. Just came home to a very relaxed and happy cat. As always we were well informed with what he got up to at each visit, and we have the piece of mind to just relax knowing our cat is very well cared for!”


“Chloe came for a meet and greet before the drop-in visit. Our three dogs quickly warmed to her - even Skye who usually takes quite a while to trust people. Her communication was brilliant - and the pictures made us feel comfortable that Roxy, Freddie and Skye had been well looked after! Thank you so much!”


“I can’t recommend Vasiliki enough. The holiday turned somewhat chaotic and I am extremely exhausted / happy to be on my way home. I say this because the daily updates and photos of Coop was such a wonderful thing to receive and just kept one less thing for me to worry about on a day to day basis. It was so nice to see him happy and playing ? Thank you so much for your time and care!”



“We can’t recommend Sophie highly enough! She took wonderful care of our cat, Willow, giving him plenty of attention and affection, and went above and beyond to ensure our home was well looked after too. Her detailed updates gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We’ll definitely be asking Sophie to look after Willow again!”


About: Hi, I'm Grace – a lifelong dog lover with a home full of wagging tails and happy paws! 🐾 Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is truly my passion. I’ve been professionally walking dogs for over 5 years and grooming them for the past 2 – and there’s nothing more rewarding than earning a dog’s trust and seeing them happy, relaxed, and tail-wagging at the end of a visit. Whether it’s a gentle walk, a playful adventure, or a pampering grooming session, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I understand that each pup has their own personality, quirks, and needs – and I pride myself on being patient, loving, and attentive to every one of them. I’m also fully trained in canine first aid, so you can feel confident knowing your dog is in safe, capable hands at all times. Your furry friend’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. You can count on me to provide updates, cuddles, and plenty of love while they’re in my care. 🐶 I work from home as dog groomer so will be at home all day apart from nursery drop offs and picks ups. So they'll have regular fuss, cuddles, attention and toilet breaks. I have a secure, fully fenced garden where dogs can play safely, along with two friendly resident pups who love making new friends. My home is set up with stair gates in various rooms, so I can easily separate dogs if needed - whether for quiet time, rest, or simply a break from the group. Your dog’s comfort and wellbeing always come first.

About: I an a freelance dancer, so I am full of energy and happy to support your pet however they need! I have one dog who is a bubbly lab and one crazy springer and before that had cats my whole life, so I have a passion for taking care of animals. I’m confident, enthusiastic, reliable and will love your dog as if they are my own! I am flexible!! I am happy to walk your dog early if that’s needed or happy to stay longer than planned at a house sitting if you’ve had a change of plan! Being freelance I make my own schedule so this works well for me! I will care for your pet however you need me to! Happy to just give cuddles, or walk them, bathe them, play with them etc.

“Thank you Francois! Francois was amazing with our pup Nala and she loved him! Thanks you for helping us out last minute with care for our pup. Completely trustworthy and reliable, sending updates throughout the day was so helpful and reassuring. Would rebook again :)”


About: 15 years dog ownership ( Beagles ). I Live not far from a 3 mile walk down the K&A canal. I also am a short drive from greenham common. If your dog likes running, I also regularly run 5km. I prefer smaller dogs, since I have a dog flap to our well fence large gardens. I walk every day, whether that is to Tesco or a 5km loop. Some days I run 5km too. I work from home during the week. I have a very large fenced back garden which is Beagle proof ( they can scale 6 foot high fences ) and I had the garden inspected by a Beagle rehousing organisation before I rescued our first Beagle.

About: My Fiancé and I will be here to care for your pet, we both love animals and want them to have the best day possible! When booking in, you can be assured we will only be looking after your dog and my dog. Your dog will get complete attention and gain new best friends in my dogs! I've been a pet owner my whole life, including a variety of breeds, ages and genders. I'm experienced with caring for others dogs as well as my own, including lots of dog walking and adventures! Both my partner and I work from home so we are always around for interacting and caring for your pets. Typically, your dog will be walked in the morning (around 8am) to an open field where they can run about and play/ go to the toilet. When we get back home we will have breakfast and then a second walk will happen after work! At the weekends, walks are longer and typically involve going to an open space like Greenham Common or the triangle walk. I have a fenced in grass garden. The house is in a cul-de-sac housing complex with multiple grass lands within walking distance of the house. Inside the home dogs are welcome to sit and cuddle on the sofa with us!

“It was our first time contacting Matthew to take care of our cat while we were away. He went above and beyond, giving Oreo lots of attention and even making additional visits to ensure he was doing well. We will definitely use his services again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of Oreo!”


About: I have had the pleasure of having dogs around my whole life and it brings me so much joy! My patience, reliability, and utmost love for animals make me a great dog sitter. I started borrowing doggies via BorrowMyDoggy in 2023 and had so much fun taking fur buddies on long walks and playing with them at home. I decided to move to this platform this year. I have been looking after small and big breeds, puppies, and senior dogs. I love them all! I work full time and have the flexibility to work from home most days. My office is also pet friendly, located in Theale. I have brought dogs to the office with me and they love the attention so I am happy to do this if the owner agrees. I live in a very safe and quiet area right next to a big field where I can take your dog for walks. I am familiar with parks and walking routes in my area and can do 2-3 walks a day. I do only allow pets in the main floor area not upstairs (new carpet) and your dog would only be left alone at night to sleep.

About: Dogs are always an important part of my life. I grown up with dogs since I am a kid. I enjoy walking them, talking to them, playing with them. Most of my week,I work from home. I could be very flexible in term of visiting pets, dog walking, playing with them and feeding them. I will provide an update via WhatsApp every time I visit the pets so that you could check on your paws friends even when you are away.

About: 🐾 I love spending time with animals and have been dog walking, sitting and grooming since 2009. 🐾 I have experience working with a wide range of dog breeds, ages & medical needs. 🐾 I am an experienced cat owner and also provide cat sitting services. 🐾 I provide caring, trustworthy and loyal services to my clients. 🐾 I have public liability insurance & I’m DBS checked. 🐾 I have many return and regular clients. 🪴 I also work as a self employed gardener, I have a lot of flexibility in my work so pet care easily fits in around other jobs and my personal life. 🏡 We have a chilled and cosy home for your pet to feel comfortable in when they are visiting. We have a fenced garden which is secure for dogs when visiting. I have a 6 year old daughter that is used to dogs visiting and walking dogs. We don’t have any pets so your pet will be the number 1 priority when staying in our home.

“Thanks Khaley for looking after our cat while we were away on holiday. It was great to see pictures of him while we were away, and it was really reassuring to get your detailed Rover Cards every day! Really good communication before and during our holiday too. Nothing was too much trouble. Thanks!”


About: I’ve taken care of other peoples dogs since I was around 16, but had dogs all my life. I also have 10 years of experience around cats. I can work on most weekends as I am currently at university, but am hoping to make some money for my savings!! Sometimes can do weekdays, afternoons depending on my lecture schedule. I will listen to the owners needs for their pets and what works for them. For example when dog walking it is probably safer for me to keep the dog on a lead to avoid any running offs but can vary how long the walk is etc.


About: West Berkshire based dog & cat lover (border with Hampshire). Available for drop ins, walks, feeding, vet visits for cats and dogs. Mature and sensible. Enhanced DBS checked. Careful and considerate with life-long experience of owning animals. Normally would offer boarding too, for 1 pet or 2 if from same household pets only but my own GSD dog is a demanding teenager currently. Happy to assist when you need help with your beloved pet. Please note: do request a Meet and Greet to get to know one another, free of charge. I know what it's like to need good care for pets over hols, or in an emergency. Full attention, proper exercise, playtime, a calm quiet home - photos can be provided of their stay. For benefit of your, and other pets, I do respectfully require that pets are wormed, flea-ed, with protection against Ticks. I live in the forest. I also recommend Kennel Cough for their best health. I only take 2 dogs at a time. This isn’t a pet business but an addition to my normal life in the countryside. I am afraid I do turn down a LOT of dogs! If completely uncontrollable in the house, or not house trained (unless an actual puppy), if barks all day even while fully supervised (must consider neighbours) and those that I think might not be happy here, with the right support. Do note: new bookings will now incur a £5.00 additional charge on departure day if beyond 24 hour stay period. After 28 hours raises to £10 additional fee (on pick-up day). And £3.00 for day care over 10 hours. Thank you. I set my own hours based around dog walks. Very rarely leave a dog alone, if at all. And allow plenty of playtime and of course walks. I have a large fenced garden. I live in the forest with miles of rural walks on the doorstep. It is idyllic. I do have 2 neighbours which is why I am careful about any incessant (for no good reason) barkers. As it’s so quiet here.

Jessica M.Star Sitter
“Jess is the best dog sitter I've ever had! My normally anxious and nervous dog (Chicken Butt) absolutely adores her and goes loopy as soon as we get to her driveway. She's kind, understanding, flexible, always checks in with me with cute updates abut CB, and double checks with snacks, meeting other dogs etc so I always feel like she's making my dog a number one priority. I'm so pleased to have found this gem of a sitter and so is my pooch!”


Yuen L.
“I used Yuen’s service before. She was nice and responsible. She updated me in great details after her visit every time. Highly recommended her services.”


Emily W.
“Emily was entrusted with our King Charles puppy, Coco, who absolutely loved being out walking, running & playing with her. They formed a good bond & went on outings for years, which was a relief because Coco had attachment issues to me & would become aggressive to anyone in black trousers for some reason! So to know she was in safe hands & looked after to her own specific needs was very reassuring & of course shown lots of love. Can highly recommend!”


Khaley W.

“Thanks Khaley for looking after our cat while we were away on holiday. It was great to see pictures of him while we were away, and it was really reassuring to get your detailed Rover Cards every day! Really good communication before and during our holiday too. Nothing was too much trouble. Thanks!”


Colette J.
“Colette loves all animals. She has a cat at her fathers house and 2 dogs at her mothers house. She absolutely adores them. Plays with them and walks them. Whenever she sees a dog she wants to stroke them and play with them. She is a responsible young lady who has had a good upbringing. Also been at boarding school so is very independent and capable. Always keeps her room tidy and is respectful of others. She would be someone you could trust to look after your pet and also respect your home.”
