About: I’m a passionate and experienced pet sitter. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds like Chihuahuas to larger breeds like Labradors. I understand how important it is to maintain your dog’s routine and ensure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or more relaxed and laid-back, I provide reliable, loving care tailored to their individual needs. I take pride in following any specific instructions to ensure their feeding, walking, and playtime schedules remain consistent, making sure they feel at ease. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog with the care and affection they deserve, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss your dog’s specific needs! I will be available Tuesday - Friday anytime in the morning until 6pm and Sunday’s all day from the 15th April. This is due to other working commitments but I’m able to drop in before or after work if this helps with flexibility! I have been given set instructions before in regards to pets feeding schedule, how often I should walk them etc, so I’m more than happy to stick to your pets schedule to make them and you feel comfortable.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. In my younger years, I worked at a local cattery and kennels, where I learned the importance of patience, routine, and understanding each pet’s unique personality. Currently, I provide regular pet sitting for a wonderful family with a high-energy border collie and an independent cat—so I’m very comfortable managing different temperaments and needs. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, cuddles, or calm companionship, I’m here to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well looked after while you’re away. Your furry family members are in caring hands—I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am a therapist. I work Monday to Thursday. Thursday I work currently three hours online between 5pm-8pm and I’m hoping to get clients around lunchtime but I’ll have spaces in between for walks, feeding and cuddles. My only requirement is good WiFi! I currently live with my parents whilst I set up my business, so the change of scenery would be welcome! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I ensure a secure, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play and relax. I take all necessary precautions, including keeping doors and gates secure, supervising playtime, and maintaining a calm, clean environment. Rest assured, your furry friend will feel at home and safe with me!

About: Nice to meet you, I'm Diana. I've been surrounded by animals all my life. Chickens, parakeets, parrots, fish, rabbits, pigeons, dogs and cats have been my companions along this path. During the last few years in Colombia I've worked on my pet care project at home, dog walking and photography for furry friends and I would love to be able to continue doing what I'm passionate about wherever life takes me. I'm a very dedicated person to animals, attentive to their needs and committed to fulfilling my work with the smallest detail that they tell me. I know that each furry friend has its magic touch, that's why I strive to create and take care of the bond with it. I'll be delighted to meet you and your faithful friend(s) and help you with whatever you need :) I am currently looking to continue doing what I am passionate about, getting to know and caring for animals and creating a bond with them. At the moment I have a lot of free time since I recently arrived in England and I am looking to do this work full-time. I always follow the care instructions for each of the furry ones, and I never miss out on cuddles and photos. If your furry one is nervous, I always try to gain their trust by giving them space, giving them time and being very patient. I make sure they have the required time for recreation and fun and that they never miss their food. I love them all, but the old ones always make me fall in love at first sight because they remind me of my beautiful little dogs who are already little angels.

About: I worked in a local kennel during summer 2022 caring for cats and dogs every weekend. I have experience with many breeds of dogs, growing up we always had Rhodesian Ridgebacks so I’m used to big dogs. More recently I’ve adopted older cats but I have experience with younger cats too. I’ve spent time pet sitting for friends and family since childhood and more recently have gained experience looking after animals with additional needs and complex medical requirements. I also have experience with small animals, rescuing hamsters since 17. I’m currently studying nursing at university but my course is mainly online so I spend a lot of time at home. Due to the nature of my course there are periods in which I will not be home for prolonged periods of time thus affecting my availability. The days I am not at university are mainly spent at home but I would also be available for walks, drop ins and boarding either at my house or yours. I have a fenced garden for outdoor play and an open plan downstairs of the house. I live within walking distance for nice walks and on a quiet street for outdoor adventures. My partner would assist to look after the animal at times, he has experience with cats and dogs. I am DBS checked through my work and university.
