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 have always been in a home filled with dogs since a young age! Taking them training, walking, caring for them, cleaning and grooming! Playing and loving them! I am unemployed so have a lot of time to spare! I’m very flexible! I can work around your schedule to make a plan for your fur baby to stay! I live in a lovely cosy home with a fenced back garden, living on a very quiet road one minute walk to the woods. Very Peaceful place to live! I live close by to many other walks, fields and parks. I can easily crate your dog if need be, bring their beds to my home, make them feel home from home, I have a fur baby of my own who can be separated on another part of the home if your dog would prefer that.

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 lifelong experience caring for animals, particularly cats! I had my own cat, Smudge for 22 years so I’m very familiar with feeding, litter care, recognising changes in their behaviour and noticing when they need a little extra TLC. I have looked after my neighbour’s senior cat when she has been on holiday, ensuring she is fed and has fresh water daily and also providing her with lots of attention and love. She now greets me outside my house every time she hears my car pull up, so I think I definitely have a friend for life! I also volunteer at a local cat sanctuary, which has given me experience caring for a range of cats with different temperaments and needs as the majority of them come from neglectful backgrounds. In addition, I’ve previously dog walked on a voluntary basis so I’m very comfortable handling dogs on walks and following owner’s instructions. I’m reliable, responsible and very attentive to animals’ needs. I aim to make pets feel safe whilst their owners are away. Pet care fits into my routine quite easily as I have flexible availability and have been used to planning my day around animal care for many years. I’m reliable with feeding times, check ins and I always make sure pets receive what they need during each visit. I aim to always follow owner’s instructions carefully and prioritise routine and consistency, as I know how much of an effect this can have on animals. In the owner’s home, I can handle feeding, water, litter care and companionship based on their pet’s needs. I take a calm and caring approach and always try to ensure pets are safe, relaxed and happy!
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for over 40 years. I’ve looked after my own dogs and my children’s dogs. I have no full time pets at home. I can provide a safe and secure home for your dog to suit your needs. I have a very large fenced and secure garden with access to the country side from my front door. I work from 5 am to 1 pm Monday to Saturday. However my work is very flexible and I can meet most needs in looking after a pet. I am able to dog walk either very early in the mornings or afternoons after 1 pm. Within the time that I am at work. Your pet will be in a very secure garden with ample shelter or shade. I am also happy to dog sit overnight at your home. I have a very secure large garden that is fenced. During the day your pet will be outside with plenty or shelter or shade. When I return home from work. ( generally after 1pm ) your pet will be exercised around the local walks in my area. Please note. Even though my garden is very secure. A determined dog could escape. Unless the dog is on a leash full time during the day. I can not g/tee that the dog would not escape. I suggest in all instances that you visit the property first before finalising your booking.
About: When I was a child, we adopted a 2/3 year old rescue dog and looked after him until he was around 14 years old. We adopted our most recent dog Toby from Montenegro. My first dog was a mostly straightforward dog but Toby had anxiety issues as well as separation anxiety so we're used to dogs with similar problems and understand how important it is to never leave them alone. Your dog will never be left alone whilst staying with us. We're comfortable administering medication (as Toby also had daily meds) and looking after your dog. Toby is unfortunately no longer with us as we had to put him so sleep so we'd love to give your doggy loads of love and cuddles! I am currently making our schedule available for school holidays as I work in a school. I'll be making myself available during the school holidays where my boys will be in nursery so I'll be able to give your dog the full attention it needs. We have a large garden that is currently unfenced but we plan on fencing it. Your dog will have access to all of the ground floor of our house.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, and I have been pet sitting since I was 15. I have experience with all types: seniors, puppies/kittens, special needs, and everyone in between! I love spending time with animals, and I can confidently administer medicine to both dogs and cats, and love snuggling with the ones that like it, and co-existing with those who don’t! I work limited hours throughout the week, and nothing on the weekends, so spending time with your pet(s) will be the best part of my week! I have years of experience caring for pets in their own homes, and maintaining privacy and respect for the homeowners. My only interest will be your pet(s), their food/water, and the cheeky treat!
About: I’ve owned a cat for 18 years but I also have several years’ experience in looking after a large dog. I spend most of my days caring for humans & my spare time caring for animals! I work shifts so I can accommodate most days/evenings. I work 2 weekends per month, but I can always call in before or after work. My availability only filters out holidays not my shifts, but shifts are provided to you upon booking so you can decide if it is suitable. I no longer accept boarding or sitting in my own home due to my cat Mitzi being the queen of our castle! I will maintain your home to the highest of standards.

“Highly recommend! I hired Silmara for a few drop-in visits to help care for my grandad's dog's needs while I was away. She was reliable, efficient and attentive. Great communication while i was away for the week gave me total peace of mind. I wouldn't hesitate to book her services again! Thank you so much!”

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my family and for the past 5 years I've been the person which they turn to when they need someone they can trust to care for their dogs. I've cared for a wide range of dogs, from small breeds like pugs and shih tzus to energetic border collies and larger boxer/bully crosses. This has provided me experience adapting to different personalities, energy levels and individual needs.

Tuesdays from 5pm to 8pm is my only time I'm unavailible as I play football but other than that, I'm free to provide all the needs of your dog. I provide my care in the owner's home, where my aim is keeping your dog happy and comfortable in their normal routine. I'll follow any insturction around feeding, medication, exercise and any other requirements. I'll take the time to get to know you're dog and get to know their usual routine. Every dog is different, so I'm happy to give them plenty of attention and playtime or give them quiet time if needed. I'll treat your home with respect and leave it the same as I found it. I'll also provide you with pictures and updates to give you peace of mind your dog is well cared for.

About: I've had dogs most of my life, we recently lost my families 13 year old patterdale but luckily I've got 2 very energetic Show Cocker Spaniels to keep me busy. Finn (Blue Roan) is 5 and Reggie (Ginger ninja) is 3. They both went to Dogs Trust puppy classes as soon as they were old enough and I've kept up with this training. Reggie has been anxious since getting him with a lot of travel sickness too. I've slowly worked on his confidence and we actually made it to Wales in November without any issues! We love going on walks to the dog park and socialising, a quiet stroll on the canal or training in the garden. I also have a nephew (Archie - border collie) who I've looked after overnight every chance I got when he was younger, he's now 9 and struggling with his mobility so I'm well versed in looking after arthritic dogs who require medication and more mental stimulation.

Hoping to transition into full-time dog walking / sitting Happy to follow your lead in terms of what training you follow and how you structure their day but can also play and teach them some fun things if you are ok with it.
