“We very recently adopted a puppy while already having two cats. Kelly-Marie paid a drop-in visit to us while my partner and I were attending a wedding. We received lots of updates in the form of pictures and videos and we can tell everyone was well taken care of! Also, our cat Kit, who is an anxious boy and tends to keep himself hidden away from unfamiliar people, even made an appearance so that was great to see!”

About: I have always had pet dogs and always been comfortable around dogs. I do like bigger breeds to. Love a good walk and play. My dogs are allowed on the couch 🥰 much to my partners annoyance. I currently work full time with Tuesdays and Thursdays working from home. I also have weekends off and evenings free. Unfortunately I cannot pet sit in my own home at the moment. In your own home I will respect your wishes and abide by how you expect me to care for your animal. You have to treat animals with love, care and snuggles 🥰

“Absolutely Great! It's the first time i used this kind of thing and wasnt sure how it goes. Oliver was very friendly and patient and explained everything in detail. He constantly kept in touch and even got the most antisocial cat i know to befriend him! Legend! I fully recommend him and will be reaching out again”


About: Hi there, I have many years of experience not only as a pet owner, but also as a vet assistant working in vet clinics. I am trained to care for all manners of medical and non-medical situations, so you can rest assured that your pet is safe and happy with me! I have experience with cats, dogs (all different breeds/sizes/temperaments), as well as reptile, should you need them taken care of as well. I also have the ability to do basic obedience training if you're having issues with your overzealous pup or if they just need a bit of a brush up on manners. I have videos of training I did with a puppy I had for only 3 days. In that time I taught her sit, stay, come, and down confidently. You are more than welcome to ask to see them. I also trained my own dogs as well. Some videos are available to view with that as well. I require a meet and greet before booking any services. It a great opportunity for you, the owners, to meet me, ask any questions you may have, and see where your loved one will potentially be staying. I work from home and so am very flexible with pet care. I am easily able to accommodate any feeding schedule, or medication treatments necessary When I have guest pets in my home, I treat them as my own, so anything I'm doing, my guest pets are doing. They always have free roam of the house and are given whatever space they need to stay comfortable.

About: Having grown up on a farm I have always been surrounded by animals. From dogs, cats, horses, cows, rabbits and Guinea Pigs I’ve looked after them all. When leaving school this drove my ambition to become a veterinary nurse, I worked in practice from 16 years old and gained masses of knowledge and experience in caring for all animals. I qualified and worked in practice for 10 years. I also set up a small kennels while living at the farm and really enjoyed all aspects of looking after the dogs. Since moving from the family home to my own home this is something I missed greatly. In 2022 we moved to our forever home I have gained The Animal Welfare License though West Lancs Council & at up my home boarding business to once again care for dogs I love so much. I’m currently a full time mummy with two children in primary school, this gives me plenty of time to fit in dog walks, visits and send quality time with your pets I have a large secure garden and a friendly little terrier who could keep you dog company. We also have a large kitchen/dinning area (with an aga to snuggle up to) and large utility room for drying off. We can see the canal from the front window so are super close for lovely long canal walks.

About: I have experience of looking after my parents dog, Walking, feeding, bathing, playing. I am aware of how dogs communicate and can adjust my behaviour as necessary to suit the dog. I am currently working part time setting my own days so I am able to work this around schedules for any needs that may arise. In a pet owners home, I would care for the pets by adjusting my demeanor to that of what the pet is used to. I understand that some pets take more time to get used to other people and would approach this effectively, giving the pet time to adjust.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was young, from talking care of my uncles over 6" Great Dane when he's on holidays to taking care of my own Yorkie who's got an attitude of a grumpy teenager. Ive walked, bathed, trained all different breeds of dogs and have a lot of patience to work with every dog with every personality! I'm a university student who is in Tuesday to Thursday afternoons. I have a long weekend that's open for walks and drop ins, I'm an early riser! I care for a 8 year old and 2 year old Yorkshire terrier at home along with a falcon. my older dog is reactive and requires more quieter walks so I know how to make sure reactive dogs are still enjoying their walks.

“Rebecca was very resposive with messaging and getting back to me quickly. She treated my cat Molto with kindness which I very much appreciated. I do have to mention that I had asked her to refresh his water while she was here, which she missed. She also stayed for only about 11 min during the drop-in instead of the expected half hour. She was very nice all around though, but for the couple notes.”


“This was the first time we have used a sitter and Natalie was exceptional. She kept us informed throughout with regular updates and photos and was attentive to Millie’s needs. She was very knowledgeable about cats which made us feel very comfortable leaving Millie in her capable hands. We have no hesitation in recommending her and would use her services again.”

I am available for dog walking and home visits during school holidays, evenings, early mornings and weekends around my current job as a primary school teacher and deputy head. Having three dogs of my own who are at home with my partner through the day, I know all too well the difficulty of finding cover for my dogs during school holidays or in the evenings. One of my dogs enjoys kennels, one is elderly and requires a home setting and a familiar face, and my other dog is very reactive and requires home visits from someone with experience of reactive rescue dogs. Trying to find a solution for all three of my 4-legged best friends is near impossible and so I know all too well the challenge of finding the right person to trust with our dogs.

About: I have owned hamsters, rabbits and a dog since the age of 6. I am also the honorary godparent to my uncle and aunt's two cats. Currently, I am unemployed over the summer. This would be ideal for me because I can pick up jobs that suits me. I can also work around my studies when I go back to university. I normally have 3 classes a week whilst at uni; this leaves plenty of time in-between to care for local pets. I will never give a pet human food in case it has a less than desired affect on their stomach. I have a stair gate that I can bring if your pet needs to be moved into another room. I will ensure not to leave anything that the floof could potentially ingest out in the open.


About: I offer professional care for your pet when you are at work, going on holiday or do not have enough time for your pet. I take care of dogs in the owner's house -I go for walks with dogs during which I also play with dogs. During the care of animals, I devote 100% of their attention to them. I advise the proprietors on the problems of pets. For each ward I am preparing an individual care plan discussed at the meeting with the owners (the first meeting is free). Additionally, during walks or visits, I recording video, taking photos so that the owner knows what is happening with his pet. I also have pet first aid and dbs check.

About: For over 4 years I worked as a professional pet border based in Lydiate. As well as this I have 3 dogs of my own ranging from small to large breed dogs . I’ve had 3 years of experience working with a professional animal behaviourist. Not only this but I have over 3 years experience working with reactive and nervous pets I’m not easily scared it can be a stressful situation for some pets getting know someone new. I’m currently working a small amount of hours e per week so I have a great amount of availability to try and help provide whatever service you need. Within my own home I have a half an acre fenced garden and professionally built dog kennels incase boarding is needed. As well as this I have experience with crating pets as well as owning an extremely friendly golden retriever who is great at making any dog feel right at home .

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little with 3 Staffies, and most recently an energetic husky! I’m healthy so walking multiples times a day is no problem if needed. I also helped raised the puppy husky and helped care for my senior staffies, meaning I can also care for up to 2 dogs at a time. I also sheltered and cared for a cat for 2 years whilst in university, providing skills for all your animals :) I am currently in my final year of university and I am looking for more weekend routines rather than throughout the week. Pet care will allow me to get more fresh air and take a well needed break focusing on your pets, which will remind me of what my daily routine was living at home with my pets. I will ensure that pets are in rooms with shut doors if opening front door unless they are fully secured and ready for walks or if your back garden has fences or walls. I am able to give basic care regarding medicines and injuries if required. I will also follow any strict rules for your pets that you set up, as I know my husky isn’t allowed on the sofa!

“Jen just gets it about dogs! My springer came back from her so happy and excited about spending time with her. He's usually hesitant about being with new people, but I could tell there was light in his eyes! She told me about taking him for walks and throwing the frisbee for him.

They come back from Sam happy washed and clipped its almost like they have their own spa day with her. Samantha regularly sends me photos and video clips of them playing and out on walks.
