“Shaina was absolutely fabulous. She went well and beyond expectations! Booked her extremely last minute and she accepted instantly and was there right on time. She calmed my nerves instantly , and when I arrived home I met her as she was leaving and she was such a lovely girl. Great attitude and work ethic , I have re-booked her and will be recommending her! This is the type of sitters we need 10/10.”


“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 love having cats around. I was a lavatory manager for a cat before. I also look after cats for short stays. Happy to keep your cat company while you're away :) I am always straight home after work. I'm available for cat boarding on weekends and can do drop-in visits or sitting on weekdays after 5 PM. I'll make sure your cat feels safe, cared for, and entertained while you're away. We have free rooms for cats and a airy conservatory. We have indoor camera. When cats stay in our home, they would spend most of time to explore indoor.

About: Hi, I’m Stef – your pet’s new quirky companion and your go-to for reliable, loving care. I have two Sphynx cats so I know a thing or two about high maintenance four legged friends, don't worry if your pet requires their own space my boys love their sleepovers with their grandparents 😂 I volunteer in the local animal shelter taking in foster litters when the rescue requires and that's how I've ended up here 🖤 I'm pretty flexible on time I control my own schedule and can keep it fluid to suit the needs of my new pet pals 🖤 My garden is fenced off and I have camera surveillance throughout the exterior and interior of my house. I have a very mischievous Sphynx so inside is fully pet proofed.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have a dog of my own - 5 year old black Labrador called Limmy. I’m currently studying for a dog training qualification, and have trained 4 dogs (including puppies and rescues). I am very experienced with dogs and am confident. I recently fostered a Doberman for just over a year, which involved training her and building her confidence. I want to ultimately move towards a career in dog training. I am happy to board/walk reactive dogs - however I’d like to meet ahead of the booking to ensure they are ok with my dog. I work full time (Mon to Friday) but work from home, so I can walk your dog before 9.30am, over lunch time or after 5pm. I am also free all weekend. Your dog can stay with me whilst I work from home where I will give them stimulating toys and activities to keep them happy and occupied. I don’t offer home boarding, as I am a full time house sitter. I have a large car with safety devices for transporting your pet(s)! I am due to complete a Level 3 Canine first aid course in November 2023 with Purple Dog.

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.

“Rebecca was great nothink was to much trouble my dog was really settled with her she kept me updated with some pictures during visit would highly recommend Rebecca and I would definitely book her again”


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: Professional, reliable, kind and experienced dog walker and home visits available in Aughton and surrounding areas. Horse and dog owner for 35+ years. Fully DBS checked and references available. Experienced with elderly dogs and dogs from a rescue background. Out-of-hours walking and home visits available. 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. I have owned horses and dogs well into their twilight years since I was a child and my priority is and always will be working my day around my animals ensuring they have the love and time they need and deserve. We do not offer home boarding however offer home visits which may/may not include walking. Feeding, companionship, toilet breaks all catered for. We may in certain circumstances accept dogs boarding in our home, please contact me to discuss availability. Only considered for well-socialised, house-trained, child-friendly dogs.

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.


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: 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.

“Fantastic! couldn't recommend Leanne more!. we were trying to find someone to come and feed our cat whilst we were away and she was able to come last minuet. was a life saver. she was great with out cat and keeping us up to date with how he was getting on. ★★★★★”



About: I love dogs. I have two dogs myself and I am looking forward to the opportunity of taking care of more dogs. My dogs enjoy the company of other dogs. Likewise, I like spending time with the dogs and I find it very rewarding. I am interested in the dog’s psychology. I always try to find ways to teach the dog new things by rewarding them. I will take care of your dog as it would be my dog. I love taking the dog out for long walks. I am quite sporty myself and walking with the dog is a way to exercise. I truly believe that it is important to find a dog sitter you can trust same to the idea of hiring a baby sitter. I am happy to meet your dog before you make the decision and see whether I match your needs. As I have a true passion for dogs I feel I would get along with your dog fine.

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!

About: Having had dogs all my life I have had plenty of experience. I have dog and house sat for friends and family over the years and officially been sitting on rover for a couple of years. I have had the pleasure to enjoy the company of their pets and care for their every need whilst on vacation! I have had experience with both larger and small dog breeds and have no problem sitting multiple pets at one time. I have also been house and dog sitting on other sites to grow trust with people who are in need of someone to care for their dogs whilst they’re away. Work from home 50% of time also so have that flexibility to care for your pets throughout the week with help from my partner on office days meaning your pets will never be alone longer than 4 hours at a time. Able to do house visits and walks through the week and on weekends. Parter also sits with myself so have two pairs of hands to help with walks if there is more attention required. I have cared for pets all my life and dog sat in other peoples homes also. Have the capability to walk, care, feed and bath pets and even give medication if required.

Stefanie G.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after our little dog than Stef! She looked after our dog Maverick for two weeks while we were on holiday, and it was clear from the very first update that he was having an amazing time. Stef kept us regularly informed with photos and messages, showing us how happy and relaxed Maverick was in her care. It was so reassuring to see him getting plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention, and Stef made sure his routine was kept just as we’d asked. We were able to enjoy our holiday knowing Maverick was in such safe and loving hands. When we picked him up, he was his usual happy self, calm and content — it was obvious he had been well cared for and thoroughly spoilt! Stef treated Maverick like one of her own, and we would definitely use her again! Thank you so much Stef ❤️”

“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. It sounds like she spent a lot of quality time with him. I wouldn't hesitate to take him back for another stay! Especially knowing of her veterinary assistant background, I feel assured of her awareness of problems to look for, and that my boy would get the best of care.”

“I have known Samantha for over 10 years and she often looks after my West Highland terrier and toy poodle. I never have any concerns when my 2 babies are with Samantha as she shows them nothing but care, love and consistency. Sam goes above and beyond when looking after Pip and Ronnie they both adore her so much so that when I go to pick them up they follow her around as though I am not there. 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. Sam understanding of a dog and their needs is very impressive she has treated both of my dogs for their extra medical needs. All in all Samantha is an excellent dog sitter and I wouldn’t leave Pip and Ronnie with anyone else.”


Sarah L.
“Sarah is an outstanding dog walker and pet care provider! She is reliable, friendly, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited for his walk every time. Not only is she great with exercise and play, but she also pay close attention to my dog’s needs—whether it’s water breaks, leash behavior, or just extra cuddles. I always feel confident knowing my pup is in caring, capable hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes above and beyond for your pet, she is the one!”
