“Dan Li was amazing, she's a very loving and caring person, she's just wonderful. Se was messaging me frequently to let me know how my doggy was doing, sending lots of pictures and videos. Dan Li was checking on his poop making sure everything was okay, she was checking he was eating okay without me asking which was very appreciated. I couldn't really recommend her enough and I will definitely use her services again as her care was exceptional!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog and understand the importance of routine, patience, and attention. I provide regular walks, a calm home environment, and personalised care based on each dog’s needs. I only accept dogs that are comfortable living with another dog to ensure a safe and relaxed stay. I structure my daily routine around pet care, ensuring regular walks, feeding times, and supervision throughout the day. I’m home for most of the day during the week, allowing me to maintain a consistent routine, and I’m fully available on weekends for attentive pet care. I live in a clean, and cosy apartment that’s well suited to calm, indoor living. I also have a friendly cavapoo girl at home who enjoys gentle company and helps visiting pets feel settled and relaxed.
“Jodie took amazing care of our dog Ivy. Ivy is quite an anxious dog but Jodie took extra care to make her as comfortable as possible and took her on lots of walks to help her settle. She provided lots of updates with photos to let me know how Ivy was getting on while we were away which was greatly appreciated!”
“We had an amazing experience with Pavithra! She took such great care of Fendi while we were away. It was clear from the updates that she was happy, comfortable, and incredibly well loved.

About: We are Joe and Elise, a young professional couple, both in our late twenties. We have always lived with dogs until we moved into our own house four years ago. We used to regularly dog sit for family, but they moved away last summer. We still sporadically dog sit for friends either for the day or while they’re on holiday. We miss regularly spending time with dogs, but aren’t in a position to get one currently. We would love to spend time and look after yours! We have no pets or children in our home. We both work from home and very rarely have meetings at the same time, so will always be able to let your dog out in the garden, and take them for walks throughout the day. We have a fenced garden and no other pets or children. We live in the centre of Moseley and have access to the private park, so will be able to take your dog out for quick walks or longer strolls throughout the day.
“Hungyi was absolutely fabulous looking after and caring for Luna! We received regular feedback and the communication throughout the whole process was just great. Thank you for looking after Luna, we’ll definitely rebook.”
About: I grew up with dogs at home, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I have plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playing, cleaning, and giving pets the attention they need. I also regularly look after dogs and cats for international students when they travel back home, and their pets have always been very well cared for. I understand how important it is to be responsible, careful, and attentive to a pet’s health and wellbeing. Owners feel reassured because I keep them updated with photos and messages, so they know their pets are safe, happy, and loved while they are away. I treat every pet like part of my own family and always try my best to make them feel comfortable. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the care, attention, and company they need. I can fit pet care into my daily routine easily, including feeding, cleaning, playtime, walks, and regular check-ins.

I’m happy to follow each owner’s instructions carefully, whether their pet has a specific routine, feeding time, or special needs. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment for pets. My home has plenty of space for cats and dogs to move around, rest, and feel relaxed. Because I work from home, pets are not left alone for long periods and can receive attention whenever needed. I always pay close attention to each pet’s mood, appetite, toilet habits, and general health. I also send regular photo and message updates to owners, so they can feel reassured that their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet like part of my own family.

“Lovely cat sitters! Hong Kui and her partner took such fantastic care of our cats while we were away for the weekend! They were so communicative and gave regular updates across the weekend. Their caring approach made our kitties relaxed and happy (even our very nervous cat!). We will absolutely book them again! 😺”
About: I have two cats who couldn't be more different, a five-year-old elegant, independent lady who absolutely knows she runs the house, and a four-year-old cuddly, food-obsessed boy who would like you to know he is always hungry. They bicker constantly (she always wins), and I wouldn't trade their company or their purring for anything. Because I'm a cat owner myself, I know what actually matters: fresh food and clean water bowls, a spotless litter box, and respecting a cat's mood, whether they want playtime or simply to be left alone in a sunbeam. I'll follow your cat's routine, keep their space clean and calm, and send you photo updates every step of the way. I'm also comfortable administering medication with clear instructions, so if your cat is on a treatment plan, there's no need to worry. Beyond my own two, I've spent four years caring for a remarkably long-lived elderly hamster (a true gentleman), hand-raised two newborn lambs — feeding them every three hours through the night and nursing them through illness — and cared for rabbits, parrots, turtles, ducks, and more. Animals in all shapes and sizes are genuinely my thing. What matters most to me is that your partner feels safe and cared for.
“Ben looked after my Ragdoll kitten, Maverick, overnight during a busy bank holiday weekend, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I could tell Maverick had been really well looked after; he was calm, happy, and clearly enjoyed the company. My apartment was also absolutely spotless when I returned, which was such a lovely bonus to come home to. Thank you so much, Ben! Genuinely top-notch care and attention. Highly recommend!”

We offer a cat sitting service with many years of experience between us of looking after our own as well as others
About: I am an experienced and highly reliable pet sitter with many years of experience from both having my own pets and caring for other people's dogs and cats (and the odd tortoise!). I am also fully DBS checked and insured, so you can have peace of mind leaving your pets with me :) I have 3 pets myself, 2 cats and a rabbit, and have always loved looking after animals. I have looked after both senior and young dogs and cats, and I would love to take care of your pet! I work part time, so will have plenty of time to play with your pets! I currently provide house sitting, day care and drop in visits in the comfort of your own home, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and is well looked after while you are away. I love exploring in and around Birmingham, especially green spaces, and I'm sure your pets would love to join me!
“I can't thank Anthea enough for taking good care of Tommy & Ada. We met up before my break so that Anthea could meet Tommy & Ada, and throughout the booking Anthea sent videos and photos of the cats each day. I returned home to two happy cats. Thank you Anthea, we will definitely be booking you for the next time! ”
About: I've basically grown up surrounded by paws and wagging tails - there's been a dog in my life since before I was even born! I adopted my two golden fur babies from different families, and they're now living the royal life back home in India with my family while I study overseas. I miss them every single day, so spending time with other dogs here would make me so happy. I've got around 22 years of experience with dogs and a lifetime of love (and slobbery kisses). If you ask me whether I'm a dog or cat person - honestly, I'd pet a crocodile if it dont think I am food!
“We had Rachel look after our two cats last year, and we will be absolutely thrilled to have them in her care again. She followed all tasks perfectly, and we came back after 2 weeks to very happy, well fed kitties. And a clean house! In fact, our oldest, very timid and shy cat warmed up to Rachel more than she has to anyone else. 10/10 Sitter!”
“Fantastic cat sitter! My cats tend to be really nervous around new people but when Nicola first visited they both came up to her and not ran away. She was great at following the specific feeding instructions and gave great updates each feeding sessions. I would absolutely use Nicola again in the future.”
About: I enjoy caring for cats because every one of them has their own little habits and personality. I take the time to understand what makes them feel comfortable and never force interaction if they prefer their own space. My goal is to make your cat’s time without you as calm and familiar as possible. I’ll follow their routine carefully, keep everything clean and tidy, and send regular updates so you can enjoy your trip without worrying.

I am responsible, patient and loving and have always been a dog lover since young. To me, this is more than just a side hustle job.

I’m also happy to send regular updates with photos and messages, so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. My priority is always to make pets feel safe, settled, and well cared for in any environment.
About: Your little doggo will have the most amount of attention in our flat as we don't have any pets of our own at the moment. My partner and I grew up (separately!) having both had Yorkshire terriers. I love spending time with dogs, and our location in city centre in the JQ areas offers lovely little parks and walking areas perfect for local dogs who are used to the area. I have taken care of family and friends animals in the past and will care take watching your little doggo. A little bonus is we have a vet who is a friend and neighbour in the building! I work from home so I'm very flexible. I would at minimum walk a dog twice a day: once in the morning and once in the evening before dinner. If you have specific walking times I am happy to accommodate them if possible. We have a big two bedroom, with a nice large living room/kitchen. It is still a flat so at the moment we're only accepting small-medium doggos for their own comfort.
About: I used to work part-time as a dog walker in New York City whilst living there from 2016-2018 and it doesn't get much more stressful than that! I walked dogs all over the city with the Wag app and had a 5⭐️rating. I have experience walking all different types of dog breeds in one of the busiest cities on earth, so rest assured I will provide your dog with a safe and enjoyable walking experience. I am the go-to petsitter for my friends and family and have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, puppies and senior dogs. I am a lifelong animal-lover and grew up with a Dalmatian dog (Pebbles) and two cats (Poppy and Iris). I do not have any pets so your dog will get my undivided attention! I am currently working from home on a freelance basis so my time is flexible. I can structure my day around your pet's needs and provide plenty of walks and breaks outside. I live next to several green spaces and can easily access fantastic walking routes of all different lengths for your dog. I am an incredibly structured and reliable person, so I can cater my time around your pet.

I would definitely recommend him personally to anybody looking for someone to care for their pet like they would themselves!”

“Harper was incredibly caring with Brownie 🥹🥰 I could see how much fun he had, and for the first time, as soon as we got home, he went straight to bed 😂. I’m truly grateful for Harper's love and attention towards him. She shared photos and updates throughout their time together, and seeing them enjoy each other and Brownie settle in peacefully gave me a deep sense of comfort and confidence that he was in good hands 🫶🏾”
About: Hi! I’m a dog mom currently on a career break and new to the area, which means I have the time, flexibility, and genuine enthusiasm to care for your pets. I’ve had experience with both cat sitting and dog sitting, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality—whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, or just keeping them company and comfortable at home. I also have a sweet 4-year-old Goldendoodle named Bodhya, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, exercise needs, and the level of care and attention pets deserve. Being a pet parent myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. Since I’m new to the city, I’m excited to meet my neighbors—especially the furry ones! I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine right now. I’m currently on a career break, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to plan my days around the pets I’m caring for. I already structure my day around my own dog, Bodhya, so walks, feeding times, and play are a regular part of my routine. I’m used to being consistent and attentive, whether that’s making time for exercise, enrichment, or just keeping pets company. For cats, I’m comfortable doing drop-in visits throughout the day or evening, and I always make sure to spend quality time with them—whether they prefer interactive play or just a calm presence nearby. Because I’m not juggling a full-time job at the moment, I can be reliable, responsive, and flexible with timing, including weekends. Pet care isn’t something I’m squeezing in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy building my routine around. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and personality. For drop-ins or house sitting, I stick to their usual schedule—feeding, fresh water, litter or walks—and follow any specific instructions. With cats, I respect their space and build trust at their pace, whether that means playtime or just a calm presence. For dogs, I ensure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment while keeping their routine consistent. I always treat pets like my own and keep owners updated with regular photos and messages.
“I left my Winnie with Amar for 4 days whilst I had jury service and he was great! He sent photo/video updates throughout the day so I knew Winnie was okay, and was very accommodating to my drop off/pick up times. It was my first time leaving Winnie with anyone, so I was a bit nervous, but Amar was very relaxed and calm which put my mind at ease. Would definitely recommend and will definitely use Amar again if we need care for Winnie! Thanks Amar!”
About: I have hands-on experience with dog sitting, including caring for my own dog, which has given me a strong understanding of daily routines, behaviour, and overall pet wellbeing. I’ve also successfully looked after neighbours’ pets, building trust with both owners and their dogs. I’m particularly confident with puppies and their needs, but I’m equally comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, ensuring they feel safe, well cared for, and happy in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I work from home during the week, allowing me to give dogs consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I’m able to incorporate walks, feeding, playtime, and regular check-ins easily alongside my schedule. I don’t work weekends, which means I’m fully available for extended care, boarding, or last-minute needs. Overall, I have a very flexible routine and am generally available, making it easy for me to accommodate different pet care requirements. I plan to provide a safe, fun, and structured environment for your dog while they’re in my care. I have a range of toys to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained, as well as crates available if they’re used to having their own space to relax. There’s also a park nearby where I’ll take them for regular walks, exercise, and playtime. I have a dog of my own too, so your dog will have friendly company and social interaction, helping them feel comfortable and engaged throughout their stay.

About: I had a border terrier when I was a teen and was very good at teaching him tricks and learned a lot about proper pet care from my step-father. Also, the last 12 months I've been looking after the beauty in my photo (Phoebe the cockapoo) - when I first met her she was a very anxious dog and now I see her so out of her shell it warms my heart! I like to think that I had a had something to do with that 🐶 I'm currently working full-time from home, so I have plenty of time for your pets! I'm mainly available for boarding from 2pm but can be flexible if needed :) I live in a two bed flat, RIGHT next to a little park that is fully fenced so the pup can freely run around. I also live very close to the sunset and moolit parks for those longer walks. I don't have any other pets in the flat.

About: I was around dogs and cats since I was 4. Over time developed strong passion and deep understanding of their mood. Big part of my childhood summers spent with dogs at my grandparents house. I was caring about a lot of cats and walked some of them on backyards. Overall had experience with different pets - my own, family’s and friend’s My studying year in university ended and I don’t have other job at the moment, so I have a lot of time to care and play with your dogs or cats at any time Since I will be standing in your home, your pet will be relaxed, feeling safe and comfortable in their familiar territory. Can give attention or space depending on their mood and personality
“Ben has been taking Rosie out on a regular basis since we moved to the area last year. He makes sure she gets some enrichment without overdoing it in her old age. Fed and watered when necessary. She always seems to have enjoyed her time out with him.”
About: I have spent my life surrounded by animals, and I cannot imagine it any other way. Over the years I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, parrots, turtles, fish, sheep, and many others. Each one has taught me something new, and that range of experience has made me a calm, observant, and adaptable carer. I have a particular soft spot for dogs. I see them as gentle, loyal little companions who give so much love so freely, and I believe they deserve to be cared for with patience, respect, and genuine attention. Because animals cannot use words, I pay close attention to their behaviour, body language, habits, and small changes in mood. To me, this is how real trust is built. A formative experience for me was caring for a rescue Corgi who had a limb amputation. Over two years with her, I came to understand how much consistency, gentle handling, and emotional reassurance can mean to an animal who has been through difficulty. I never consider myself an expert, because every animal continues to teach me more. I currently share my home with two cats, and I have experience with small and exotic pets, including a wonderfully long-lived hamster. I am comfortable following detailed feeding routines, keeping food and litter areas clean, giving medication when needed, and sending regular photo updates so you can feel reassured while you are away. What matters most to me is simple: your pet should feel safe, loved, and understood, and your home should be treated with the same care and respect I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule and can adapt to your pet’s routine. I’m available for both short-term and long-term care—feel free to get in touch anytime. I maintain a calm, clean environment, follow routines carefully, monitor behavior, and provide updates. In owners’ homes, I respect their space and pets’ familiar habits.
“Laryssa was easy to communicate with when arranging Hank’s pickup and made the whole process seamless. She was fantastic with him, and it was clear he was well cared for. I would highly recommend Laryssa to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was young. Life would be so boring and completely pointless if it wasn’t for these beautiful furry friends! I have experience walking groups of dogs and looked after 3 dogs for a whole week whilst home sitting. Best week ever. I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to be there for whatever they need. I love walks so taking a furry friend will be a breeze. My home provides a calm, secure environment with space, cleanliness, routine, and constant supervision, ensuring any animal’s safety, comfort, enrichment, and well-being at all times.

About: Hi, I’m Ying and I cannot imagine anything better in the world than cuddling and caring for pets. Ever since i was little i have always wanted to have a dog as a pet, however the best I ever got was a…rabbit. I adored my rabbit and it was great spending time with him, however it was rather difficult for me to take him on walks and train him to not do his business in groups of droppings around the house, and so i believe that dog sitting has been the perfect opportunity with me to look after your pets as well as fulfil my dreams of my inner 8 year old self. Though i have not had my own dog before I have had experience previously in looking after my friends dogs when they have been away. I have also previously volunteered for the PDSA, the vet charity for pets in need, as even though I couldn’t show my own love and appreciation for my own dog, I thought it would be great to help out with all the other pets that are sick or are in need. I am currently a full time student at Warwick university studying a degree in film and television, as I have no lectures at the moment and just the dreaded essays, I am quite flexible in terms of when and where i can be. I listen and will respect all the rules regarding your home and your pets, if there are any requirements regarding your animals , I will be sure to make sure that they are loved and feel cared for

I’m comfortable giving them lots of love, keeping their space clean, and understanding their unique little personalities. On top of that, I have light hands on experience from helping in a reptile store and a bird store, which gave me basic knowledge and confidence around a variety of animals, from snakes and lizards to parrots and budgies.

About: I've been looking after my friends' dogs since 2021 whenever they're away on holiday or travelling for work. Over the years, I've learned how to take care of dogs. I'm a patient, responsible, and caring person who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. Whether it's going for walks, playing, sticking to their usual routine, or simply giving them plenty of attention and cuddles, I always aim to provide the same level of care that I would want for my own. I am currently finishing up my PhD, so I have a very flexible schedule since I don't have a traditional 9-5 office job. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I enjoy spending time with animals. I always care for each pet according to their individual routine and the owner's instructions. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I take the time to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise routine, favourite activities, and any special requirements. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I love animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with both cats and dogs. I’ve had the chance to look after different pets, and I always enjoy getting to know their little personalities. I’m an architect and currently building my own small business, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they need. I’m happy to stick to their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable and relaxed. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages, and I’ll care for your pet with the same patience and kindness I’d want for my own. I’m currently self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to spend quality time with your pet. I’m happy to work around their usual routine whenever possible. I’m naturally tidy and organised, and I often help people declutter and organise their homes. I’ll always respect your space and leave everything exactly as I found it.
About: I’ve raised Lucifer since he was 8 weeks old and we’ve had Bala stay with us for the last year, so we know how to manage multiple dogs at the same time that have very different energies We work from home and our pets have seperation anxiety which means they are never left alone. We go on at least 4 walks a day, so if your dogs love the park or going on long walks then that would be perfect. We will only accept pets if they are vaccinated, house trained, and good with other dogs. We love taking photos of the dogs, so you'll be getting plenty of updates so better start making space for photos on your phone. My flatmate Peiyi is also there to take care of the dogs if I'm ever busy. I have a year old mini-goldendoodle named Lucifer who loves to play all day, so if you've got a pet that loves to play with other dogs then we would be the perfect household for dog sitting. We also have a five year old korean jindo mix dog named Bala who loves to sleep all day, so if you've got a pet that loves to sleep and getting back rubs all day then we would be the perfect household for dog sitting.
About: I always had dogs since I was a kid and always played with my little ball of joys. Always gave me a lot of joy seeing dogs running around and playing with each other. Since I moved to the UK, my boyfriend and I also have a cute small yorkiepoo that loves to play with other dogs and have our friend’s pets coming over. I’m currently at home and my boyfriend also works remotely so your pups will always have somebody to play and go to parks. I usually go with my pup and friends every two or three days to parks nearby. My apartment has rooms that in case our pups are not well together, I can keep them away. We also have a public fenced garden, that allows the dogs to run around without a leash and play around.
About: I have looked after my mums family pet during my time at home and have recently helped look after her current shar pei. When I lived in Worcester, I have taken my managers dog daschund for walks and taken care of them while she was at work. I've also had many repeat owners use me for dog sitting aswell as drop ins - please see my reviews I have 2 days off a week and every evening so I am looking forward to making some furry friends and keeping active :) thanks I will check all instructions left by the owner on how to care for their pet such as their routine so it's not changed even though they aren't there. This will be tailored to each pet. If it's walks then I'll ask about their favourite places to go and how to walk them. As in not near other dogs or are they allowed off the lead etc

“Ruby was able to accommodate Buddy at short notice and happy to do a quick meet and greet too. Ruby was keen to meet his needs. Buddy received a lot of care and cuddles! I would definitely book with her again.”
“Wivi looked after Raya for three days while we were away. She took excellent care of her. We were able to meet up a few days before, which put us at ease. Wivi was happy to keep in touch as much or as little as we wanted and sent us photos and videos of Raya playing and enjoying a puppuccino. We would happily leave Raya with her again.”
“Anthony was amazing with our doggies! That was the first time we left our doggies with someone else , and Anthony did a perfect job in taking care of our babies. We definitely recommend him and we will rebook with him in the future! PS.: Lua and Reggie are already missing him!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life, our current home is comes with two furry friends who also love other dogs. With my own dogs over the years we've had extensive experience looking dogs of various breeds and also experience of dogs with different needs, one of our dogs is blind so particular experience with that Very experienced with looking after any medication needs or unique dietary needs. Between myself and family someone is home pretty much the entire time. Dog walks and, if you're dog is happy to be involved, runs are a normal part of everyday. We have plenty of spare running harnesses. Dogs are part of the family day to day. We have a large securely fenced garden which the team have constant access to, subject to the weather. Our own two dogs are a little older, but still love a play and are always happy to keep a guest company. Both our dogs very relaxed and quickly settle into having another dog around, if your dog is a little nervous, it's always good to let us know and we can arrange a meet and greet before. If your dog is used to being crated that's great, we can easily accommodate their crate or a travel crate, if not that also fine, they'll be given the space they need.
“Jules and her partner were fabulous with Pixel this weekend, and made her feel right at home. They have a lovely home and garden, providing a great environment. They also kept us up to date with regular messages and pictures. Would highly recommend them.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 5 years of my life. I started this little business for my neighbours and friends and family and would like to grow this into an everyday job. I currently am free during the week and weekends . I can provide all sorts of service and can stay over and house sit as well. My services include : daily walks , playtime teaching your pet how to do tricks. I love giving them treats as well for good behaviour :) I have four cats myself who do not currently live with me so I have a lot of experience when it comes to the cat family . With dogs I have grown up around them and regularly dog sit for my neighbours and friends. I love animals of any kind so this would be a great opportunity for me to grow into my passion and give your furry friend a smooth and anxiety free atmosphere. I would spend the whole day with your pet so they wouldn’t be alone and would always have a loving companion. I have an outdoor garden that is fenced to look after your fur babies . Additionally there is a park nearby that is very safe.
About: I am patient with dogs, but I will stop them from doing the wrong thing in time. I will use food to train dogs, such as sitting, shaking hands, lying down, etc. I am currently studying, and usually I have a lot of free time on Saturdays and Sundays, but I also have different periods of free time on Mondays and Fridays. My home is a two-room apartment, which is very large. And the apartment I live in is a pet-friendly apartment. Many residents here have their own pets. I believe your pet will have a good time in my home.
“I cannot thank Charlotte enough for how well her and the kids took care of my dog Tink! Charlotte was so friendly and relaxed as soon as we arrived, which really helped me feel calmer as I was quite anxious about leaving Tink overnight in an unfamiliar environment. I got photo updates to show she’d settled in and was getting lots of love and lap time, which reassured me that she was ok and equally wasn’t causing Charlotte and family too much stress! Charlotte clearly listened to and replicated our usual routines as much as possible and I really felt she was willing to do whatever was best for Tink given that she was in a new place with new people. Overall I have absolutely nothing negative to say about the experience and would highly recommend Charlotte. I will absolutely be requesting her services again in future, especially now I know Tink seems so happy and comfortable there! Thank you again, Tink loves making new friends so I’m sure she’s very grateful too!”
About: I have had the pleasure of working with a variety of dogs and cats over the last few years! I have a border collie, so I’m very much used to looking after energetic dogs who need a lot of stimulation. Additionally, I have 3 Bengal cats who are very demanding! I absolutely love to look after animals and provide them with their usual routines and spend time with them! Rest assured, you will always receive lots of videos and photos whilst I do drop in visits, walking or pet sitting to keep your mind at ease. I always like to do a couple of meet and greets, so you can get to know me and your pets can get to know me too! I approach it very much like how I would want it. I will always be able to tell you if I’m happy on the first meet and greet! If your pets have any dietary requirements or needing medication. I am happy to do this because I have experience in doing so. Furthermore, I have looked after so many puppy’s and I have trained them all of there commands. My main aim is to make sure your pet is happy but you also too! 😁 I work from home, so I am able to provide pet care at anytime of the day or night. Short notice is also fine for me! I would follow all of your usual routines to keep your pets happy. I would provide regular updates to keep you reassured. Any requests, would never be too much!
“Amazing sitter! Beatriz was really nice with both Melissa and Liz, not only she gave us frequent updates throughout the days that they were with her, sending many photos and videos, but she was also gave both Liz and Melissa special attention. We highly recommend her as a sitter!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. My family home has never been without one. I have 2 dogs currently a 13yrs bichon frise cross and a 2yr old golden doodle cross living at my parents. They come and stay with me when my parents need dog sitting. I have looked after friends dogs of all different breeds and sizes from dachshunds to cane corso. So no matter the age or size, we would get on just fine. I’ve had cats since I was 12yrs old. My first cat was a 14yr old rescue that required extra attention with medication etc. At my parents I Currently have a cat called Nelly and her son Minford. He was 1 of the 4 kitten she had that we kept. Having a pregnant cat that gave birth in your care is an amazing experience in itself so I’m very familiar with looking after and meeting the needs of cats and kittens of all ages. I’m currently working self employed at the moment on call waiting for jobs. I can be out of the house for 1-2hrs at a time during the day or some days not at all. I live in an apartment block but have an outdoor courtyard and grass park 2 minutes walk away. They would have access to any many toilet breaks as they need and we can take a walk to the park.
“Maria was absolutely amazing with my elder husky, she has arthritis and doggy dementia but Maria was more than happy to look after her for us, we had constant updates letting us know how she was each day, and she was incredibly understanding of her needs! I’ve told anyone with a pet about her and will continue recommending her! Thank you again Maria!!!”
“Mani is a magic man! My Greay Dane is incredibly sensitive (and large!). He is so wonderful with her, incredibly understanding and kind. I was so worried leaving her to go on holiday and Mani made me feel very comfortable. Send multiple videos, photos and updates every day. I think he is now Taylor's new best friend! 💛”
About: I’ve been working in the veterinary industry for some time. I spent a lot of time around animals of all ages, and I’ve learned that even though they can’t talk, they have their own way of telling us what they need. I’m especially patient with senior pets who just need a slow pace and a gentle hand, as well as younger ones who are still figuring the world out. My approach is really just about being present and observant—I focus on sensing their mood and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I’m not a professional trainer, but I am a great listener when it comes to what your pet is 'saying' through their behavior. I only work 4 days a week. I have no extra commitments outside of work so that gives me extra time to take care of our furry friends. I do not own a pet so no need to worry about comparability, especially for our extra anxious friends. There are parks around my building and so they can have easy access to the greens.
