House Sitting West Dunbartonshire

“Honestly I don’t know where to begin! As an extremely anxious cat mum I didn’t think I was ever going on a holiday again and then we found Robyn, from the minute I sent the first message Robyn was SO helpful. Fast forward to holidays and I do not have anything negative to say! Robyn eased my nerves, check in everyday with photos of my girls and just let me know how they were getting on! I think my cats are devastated she has left and I’m home! If you have any reservations about having someone else look after you fur babies Robyn is your gal!”

About: As a child, I never had a dog or cat of my own, despite begging my parents. So, I made up for it by walking my friends’ dogs as I loved animals. My mum then got a greyhound six years ago, and he was the best thing to happen to our family, so I spent my days looking after him. I wish to continue to do so in any way I can, whether it be dog walking or sleepovers. I am more than happy to help. I look forward to seeing the adventures your furry friend and I will go on, whether that be a local walk or taking your dog to the national park local to me. I am really looking forward to hearing from you! - Marina I currently working hybrid/remote from home so I’ll have plenty of time to look after your lovely pets! I have every weekend off too (: I can take your dog for local walks or i can take your dog to Loch Lomond or Balloch castle which is perfect for dog walking, your dog can wander around, play and swim too (: I will always create a route tailored to your dogs needs and abilities. At home, your pet will be allowed to wander the house freely. We have a good back and front garden where they can play and go out whenever they’d like.

“Jennifer was fantastic. Met up for a meet and greet before the house sitting, and on the day she was great with Ollie giving me update and pictures out on his walks with her! 10/10 highly recommend Jennifer.”

About: Over the years I have had 6 cats, 2 dogs, hamsters, parrots and fish so I have always had a love for animals! I have plenty of experience in caring for them and know what they need. I have had pets who have had ongoing medical needs including regular medicine. I’m the go-to contact for friends and family when they need someone to pet-sit! My partner, Huzaifah, will be helping take care of your pet. He’s an animal lover and has looked after cats, dogs, ferrets, fish, and iguana and a tortoise. I work part time and my partner, who also adores animals, works full time from home so your pet will always have company! We don’t work weekends or bank holidays. We currently have 2 gerbils in a cage in our spacious upper cottage flat with an unfenced garden. The gerbils are elevated so there shouldn’t be any issues, they love the company of other animals!

“Sara was great with Toby, would thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for a dogsitter! Hopefully Toby will be less lazy and more energetic for his walk next time 🤣”

About: Hi I am Frances, anyone that spends five minutes in my company will tell you that I love all animals but especially Dogs, I feel as though they are just beautiful, caring, compassionate, clever and all round awesome beings that we don't deserve. Can't help but smile when in their company, Living their best life every day in the moment. No coincidence that their name is God backwards. I have had 2 dogs of my own in the past who I consider to be my family and am at a loss without my Son at the moment. I babysit for my friends Dogs if they have commitments elsewhere and consider it a privilege to do so. You don't have to own a dog to be my friend, but it helps :). Rest assured your fur babies are spoiled with me and we have fun playing, and chilling in between the adventure walks with lot's of Pink Panther sniffing / investigating to be done as well as special treat sausages from the Local Butchers with your permission of course. I have recently returned from Rwanda and Uganda where I had an amazing experience trekking in the National Forest Park to see the mighty Silverback Gorilla and his family. I have also travelled to Borneo where I volunteered at an Orangutan Sanctuary ( Jungle School - on Netflix ) and have also volunteered with the SSPCA in the past too. It would be an absolute pleasure to look after your furry family member and would be awesome to be their honorary Auntie and included in their pack. I currently work from home Monday and Friday from 8.30 to 3.30 and in the office on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8.30 to 4.30. I am therefore able to look after your Fur babies for long weekends Fri to Mon easily fitting in with their own specific schedules. I am hoping to be able to make this a full time job in the future, as it would be a dream come true to be able to care for your pets and be paid to do so?! In an ideal world I would have won the lottery and I would pay you for the privilege of your babies company. I have a private fenced garden that allows security and safety for your pet to be able to go out for fresh air throughout the day in between the bigger walks - minimum of an hour of sniffing if allowed. Your pet will be allowed up on the couch and bed with fluffy blankets for comfort if allowed only, as I would not allow if not the norm for pet. All their requirements will be adhered and catered for, so as not to disrupt their usual routine.

“An absolute superstar, thanks again Sidney! She stayed in our home for 1 week taking care of our dog Charlie, sent regular updates and photos and left our house is such a nice and clean state. Everything went so smoothly and we left on our first holiday together with our children knowing Charlie was left in safe hands with lots of attention, cuddles and calmness ☺️ would without hesitation book you again and recommend you to whoever was looking for a reliable and kind soul to look after your four legged best friend 💞”

“This gal is absolutely fabulous. Prior to the first board we met several times, took my girls a wander and had some coffees and I felt at ease knowing my girlies were in safe hands and someone who will just hug them and care for them as I do. Sending me pictures of what the girls are up to. Highly recommend! Relieved to have found her services! Thank you again ☺️”

“Ian has a really lovely natural way with dogs. Loki took to him instantly. I felt reassured that Loki was being well looked after whilst I attended my mum's funeral. He followed instructions. I will certainly book him again. Thank you”

About: I currently own two working breeds between the ages of 2 and 5 years old. I have grown up around a range of breeds throughout my life from Lhasa apsos to bullmastiffs so I am eager to care for any breed, in my opinion the bigger dog the better. I have previously owned a reactive collie so I have experience of caring for dogs with more complex needs and I am happy to accommodate to any of their needs. One of my current dogs is a long haired breed and I am happy to keep up with any grooming requirements as I understand the importance of this. With owning two working breeds I am familiar with several types of enrichment to help keep them entertained and get their brains working. Although I have no experience in pet sitting officially as described above I have 5 years experiencing owning dogs. I typically will only be available on weekends however some exceptions could be made for weekday care. I am currently working full time and I am available for house sitting mostly on the weekends., with some exceptions for weekdays dependant on the location. I am available for morning/evening walks during the week again dependant on the location. I am happy to take your dog to nearby open spaces or enclosed fields to meet their needs (at no extra cost), I have my own car and ensure to appropriate after methods such as a seatbelt or crate when travelling with my own dogs which would be extended to your animals to ensure their safety. I have experience with a reactive collie and I am happy to do anything required to meet your reactive dogs needs and safety to ensure their upmost comfort for them.

“Agnes was amazing. My wee dog Ginger is a very nervous rescue. Agnes met her before she looked after her.This was the first time I had left her & I was so worried. I needn’t have been. Agnes kept regular contact & sent me regular pics & I could tell that Ginger was happy & settled. I can’t thank Agnes enough & I would recommend to anyone.”

About: Grown up owning a Labrador and being surrounded by a number of family dogs of various sizes including rescue dogs. Our household welcomes all kind of paws and pups. I work shifts and my partner works hybrid (home and office). Between us there is someone home, keen to cuddle or up for a walk. We occasionally look after family and friends dogs when required. I have a fenced, secure garden. A box full of toys and treats for all dogs to enjoy. A dedicated cuddle chair calling out for a dog snuggle.

“Christina looked after my dog, Baxter, over the weekend, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met, it was clear how caring, reliable, and passionate she is about dogs. Baxter was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after when I collected him. Christina kept me updated throughout the weekend with messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Christina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of Baxter.”
