Sarah has been fantastic with Coupar right from the start. She kindly came out for a meet-and-greet beforehand (at no extra charge), which was really helpful and gave me peace of mind. On the day of the walk, she arrived exactly on time, followed my instructions perfectly and made everything feel seamless and stress-free. Coupar was clearly happy and relaxed afterwards, and it was lovely to receive photos from their walk. Sarah followed everything to the letter, including feeding him after the walk, and it was clear she genuinely cares. I’d absolutely book her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others!

Leah was amazing with our cats, our cats clearly felt very safe around her as my older cat usually never comes out for strangers. She must’ve felt like a safe place for my pets which completely put me and my partner at ease. Got good photos and updates of both and were well taken care of and looked very happy with her. ☺️

Tímea loves animals and she pays attention to everything that relates to taking care of a pet. She did an exemplary job at visiting my cat 3 days in a row while I was away. Highly recommend her!

Lewis was great, especially at such short notice. He always sent me updates and photos and took great care of my lab and cats. Will definitely use him again in the future.

About: I’ve grown up most of my life having handled dogs and cats, mostly big dogs like German Shepherds and labradors which I used to train and take on walks. I now have a cat and a Jack Russell of my own. I currently work full time local to home during the weekdays although I am able to care for and walk dogs before and after work and/or any times on the weekends I have a larger home with plenty of space and my dog is well versed in going out on a lead. My cat is relaxed and unbothered old boy who just likes his peace in the windowsill.

Claire done some pop in visits to my home to take care of my puppy while I was away. She and her husband were amazing, and took really good care of my dog. They are very responsible and always look for the best way to take care of him. Couldn’t recommend enough.

About: Experienced with large, high-energy dogs and senior pets. Owner of a young Doberman-Lab cross; previously cared for Rottweiler, German Shepherd, and cats living into their mid-20s. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of spare time. I actively train and care for my own large dog, so I’m available for regular walks and in-home sitting. I prioritise safety, routine, and clear communication at all times. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I follow their instructions closely, maintain normal routines, and ensure the environment is secure and calm. For walks, I use appropriate leads and harnesses, assess surroundings carefully, and adjust walks to each dog’s temperament, whether solo or group. I monitor behaviour, energy levels, and wellbeing throughout. I keep homes tidy and respected, provide regular updates, and always aim to create a stress-free, trustworthy experience for both pets and owners.

About: I may not own a dog, but I’ve happily walked friends’ dogs, know how to feed and water them, and always give care and attention. I study fine art full time and work part time but that doesn’t stop me from checking on all pets. That can be some days a week or on the weekends. I will always ask you the owner what you are comfortable with me doing as it is your pet and your home. I can easily adapt to whatever you need me to do.

About: I have many years experience as a dog owner from childhood and, more recently, having done over 50 petsits since 2020 caring for a wide variety of dogs, cats, small animals, chickens and the occasional pony/horse. I adore animals and pride myself on ensuring that pets are safe and secure in their own home while their pet parents are absent. I am spotlessly clean and organised and work around the routine of the animals I care for, while ensuring that the home I am staying in is kept immaculately clean and secure. I currently work online as an English language tutor, approximately 3 mornings a week for a total of around 10 hours. This has always worked out well and complimented my pet-caring work as the teaching fits well around caring for animals in their homes. However, I emphasise that I work around the individual needs and routine of the animals I care for as they are the utmost priority. Before accepting a petsit, I make absolutely sure that the 'fit' is right for both me, the home owner and, most importantly, for the animal. If I feel that I can't provide exactly the care that an animal requires, then I will not accept the work. I do this first and foremost because I love animals. I like to make sure that the home/animal owner fills me in completely on what is required to both care for their pets and their home and that everything is in place to ensure confidence from everyone concerned. Once I am certain that I can confidently provide what is required I am prepared to accept a new client.

About: Thank you for coming along to my profile. I’m Lucy, I’m 25 and a dog lover of all ages, breeds and sizes! I recently lost my family dog who was a Bichon called Buddy and was 13 years old! I loved him so much and enjoyed every minute I had with him. We were lucky to always have a family or friend we trusted to look after Buddy, and I would love to be trusted with your pet when you are unable to be with them. I am happy to look after dogs pets of all ages with love and care ❤️ I work full-time during the week, however I do have flexible working and work from home 3 days a week. I’m free most weekends with some availability on weekdays however not regular due to my work pattern, but feel free to message me to check! I’m local to a lot of great parks and walks for dogs, as well as enclosed dog fields if your dog prefers this. Please provide as much detail as you can about everything I might need to know to care for your pet, if you would like me to meet your pet beforehand please just let me know!

About: Hello! I’m Madeleine, I live semi rural, lots of great walks, enclosed garden and plenty sofas to snooze on. I have 3 children who are very used to dogs, boundary aware and know how to behave around animals. However, if your guy is not keen on kids I am not for you, sadly. Your dog will have a separate room if needed/ when required. Otherwise I have a very open household and they will be treated like a member of the family. I have experience with most breeds including not limited too: brachycephalic Breeds(I owned a bulldog) , doodles, labs, Xoloitzcuintli & bullmastiff. I have completed dog first aid and own a dog first aid kit. I mention this as I know with certain breeds and the hotter summer months approaching overheating is a real concern. Im equipped and knowledgeable! Training experience : My dog was a rescue from Japan. He had no socialisation and wasn't toilet trained when we got him. After a lot of work, he is a well rounded guy who is fully toilet trained. I like to think I'm pretty versed in basic and behavioural correction training. I had a professional trainer advise with my dog, It is an area I’m really interested in, working with positive reinforcement and trust building. I can help with toilet training, socialisation, recall, desired behaviour positive reinforcement etc I can’t work with, understandably, large breeds that don't like children. If you are planning on a longer holiday, we will need to meet before. This will give both parties peace of mind. Potentially even an over night that I will do at a discounted rate. Even if it’s just one night I'm still always happy to meet up first! I will send you daily photos/ updates and happy to face time etc! I am a stay at home mum of 3 school aged children. After school drop off, my favourite thing to do is grab a coffee and go on a lovely (childfree) walk! I know tones of great walks and love finding new spots so no two walks are the same. Weekends and holidays my kids will be off school. We tend to go more child friendly places like lauriston Castle, Cammo and Cramond. I have my doggy first aid and kit! I am scripted and ready for things like: overheating (used to own a bulldog) anaphylactic reactions (I can administer injections) , kennel cough etc. We have a large fenced garden. Dog will sleep in our kitchen area/ utility if boarding. If its just a day visitor they will have the run of the downstairs.

About: I am a high energy animal lover. I love being outdoors with pets and giving them adventurous walks. A hike up a mountain or a stroll in a shaded wood area, I love to explore. I am also a gentle hand with older pets and great company in doors for all animals. I have many years of experience and treat animals like part of my family. I am a part time teacher so have some flexibility during the week and full availability during school holidays. I keep my availability updated and am available for regular pop ins morning and evening to suit. I have good overnight availability. I am a well trusted and responsible animal lover who can follow your instruction so that your pets routine is not disturbed while you are away. Happy to send videos and photos to update.

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, having adopted pets at various life stages, from infants to seniors. I've provided loving care for them until they passed away, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs. Currently, I have three medium-sized mixed-breed dogs, allowing me to manage multiple dogs effectively. What sets me apart is my compassionate approach and my ability to cater to each pet’s individual routine and personality. I treat every animal as part of my family, ensuring they feel safe and loved while in my care. Additionally, I am more than willing to clean up after pets, including clearing any waste, as I understand it’s essential for their health and the cleanliness of the environment. Your pets will receive the highest standard of care and attention. I am available for pet care on weekdays from 11 AM to 3 PM, as well as on Saturdays. This schedule allows me to provide consistent and loving care for your pets during those times. When caring for pets in their own homes, I prioritize their safety and comfort. I ensure the environment is secure by checking for any potential hazards and maintaining a calm atmosphere. I follow the pet owner's routines, including feeding schedules and playtime, to help minimize stress. I provide companionship, engage in play, and ensure that each pet feels loved and cared for during my visits. By visiting them in their familiar surroundings, I aim to keep their routine consistent and help them feel at ease while their owners are away.

About: I currently live in a house with 3 boy cats aged 1,2 and 4. I have taken care of them alone whilst flatmates were away on trips. I have also helped care for a friends puppy when needed! I’m very flexible as I am not currently working, I am at Glasgow Clyde college Monday to Wednesday. So any homes in Glasgow are very convenient as I have to travel in and out of Glasgow a lot! Also keen to work in other areas like Edinburgh as on my free days I stay in Livingston. I’m happy to walk dogs in any weather, I’ve used harnesses and leads before. I’ll take care of dogs waste and cats litter box, I groom my cats frequently and vacuum any shedded hair. And happy to feed them at their routine eating times. If they prefer their own space or want frequent engagement I am happy to do either

About: Both me and my partner Zac have grown up and looked after Dogs and Cats for years. We have trained my own puppy and have looked after numerous friends, family and client's pets for long periods of times. We absolutely adore looking after all your little ones & Sky adores having friends stay at her home. I work from home everyday as I run my own Online Coaching Business so I have no problem looking after little ones running around me! I choose my own hours and am very flexible. I normally work around the pup’s schedule so they feel just at home and happy to cater in any way. My partner Zac also is home who has grown up with dogs and cats throughout his entire life and absolutely loves taking care of all our friendly visitors! He will cuddle them all night 💤 I have a fenced open garden with a locked gate. My puppy stays in the kitchen when I am out with white noise to avoid any distractions. We tend to split the dogs in the day if we do go out, so they have their well earned rest before they go back into play mode. I live right on the doorstep of the Murieston Trails which we regularly walk our pup down as there is lots to explore! I do have a crate but Sky is happy lounging on the sofa or in her bed and same goes for your own pups. She also sleeps upstairs at night and happy for your pups to sleep where they feel most comfortable at night. Your pups will have fill access to the house and garden throughout the day and night.

Lucy is super gentle and helpful! I don't usually get a pet sitter, especially for such a short trip away, but my fur baby had an ear infection that needed a tablet and ear drops daily to cure. Lucy helped out with that and my babies liked her so much!
