“This was the first time we've had to leave our 11 month old puppy Banksy with anyone, but Kayan put our minds at rest straight away. Kayan kept us updated regularly with photos and messages and we could see Banksy was having a great time and very well looked after from walks to playing, he loved every minute of his stay . We highly recommend Kayan for looking after your pet and without hesitation will be using her again for Banksy .”
“Just back after leaving my girl with Paulina and family yet again. I couldn't be happier with the care and attention she's been given again.. Daisy adores her and her girls, its such a big weight lifted knowing her care is 5 star. I had my 'fix' every day of updates pics and videos..seeing how happy she is just amazing...so glad I found you Paulina I wouldnt want her to go anywhere else...”
“This is the second time we have use Wai San and our dog Tux is very happy there. We get regular photos of what he is doing and it means can relax and enjoy our holiday. I would definitely recommend Wai San and Tux will visit them again next time we need to go away. Thank you for looking after him so well.”
“My Pomeranian, Clara, really enjoyed her stay at Hio Man’s house. We got some photos, and he always replied quickly. In the pictures, Clara looked very happy and comfortable, just like at home. Super thanks 🥰”
About: I’ve always been passionate about animals and have gained experience caring for dogs through working in kennels and at a dog daycare, dog walking and completing an animal care college course. I’ve cared for dogs of many different breeds, sizes and personalities, and I love getting to know what makes each dog unique. I also study dog body language and behaviour, which helps me understand dogs better and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also train dogs using positive only methods and provide enrichment through play, and one-to-one attention. My goal is to give every dog a happy, relaxed home-from-home experience where they can stick to their routine and feel loved while they’re away from their family. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate my time and planning according to your baby and their needs. I enjoy creating a routine that works for each individual dog, including play, enrichment, training sessions and plenty of attention throughout the day. I have a strong interest in dog behaviour and body language, which helps me understand each dog’s personality, comfort levels and needs. I’m happy to follow each owner’s routine, including feeding, commands and habits, so their dog feels settled and comfortable. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel reassured that their dog is happy and well cared for. The safety and comfort of every animal in my care is my top priority. I care for my own pets by providing a safe, clean environment, a consistent routine and making sure their individual needs are always met. Because I have a strong interest in animal behaviour and body language, it helps me understand each animal as an individual and see and understand their needs. I’m passionate about positive training and believe mental stimulation is just as important as physical stimulation, building trust through patience and communication. I have even trained my own cat to learn tricks and basic obedience! 😂 My home has a large, secure fenced garden, giving dogs a safe space for supervised play, enrichment, toilet breaks and training sessions. I work around each dog’s routine rather than expecting them to fit around mine, including following their normal feeding, sleeping and comfort habits. If a dog is crate trained and their owner uses a crate as part of their normal routine, I am happy to continue this while they are in my care. On top of all this I provide frequent updates with pictures and videos of your fur babies so you can see how they’re getting on ❤️
“First time rover users and we couldn’t be happier with the love, care and attention that Karmen and her family showed our precious cavapoo girl over the last week. Mable was truly included as part of their family which enabled us to enjoy a worry free holiday. Can’t thank Karmen and her family enough!”
“Our 4 year old Labradoodle, Albert, has just returned from a wonderful stay with Anita. She took him on lovely walks in lots of different places, often including an extra evening stroll near her lovely home. It was immediately clear how happy and well-cared-for he was, he ate really well, received plenty of company and attention, and came home relaxed and content. Anita sent regular updates and photos throughout his stay, which we looked forward to every day. She clearly loves dogs and provides excellent care. We would happily leave Albert with her again in the future and highly recommend her to other dog owners.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely couldn't fault this stay — 5 stars without hesitation! Buddy spent 4–5 days here and I was put completely at ease from the moment I dropped him off. PRTs can be lively little characters and Buddy is no exception, but he was so well looked after and clearly loved every minute of it. I received updates throughout the stay which meant I could actually relax whilst away rather than worry. Buddy came home happy, well-exercised, and settled — which tells you everything you need to know. Thank you!”
About: I have had dogs in my life since I can remember, our dog’s over the years; a westie, a sharpei, a yorki-poo, a Rottweiler cross sharpei, and a spaniel. I also owned a staffie and xl bully with my ex partner. I now live on my own with a significant amount of land with my son, and looking for doggy loves without the commitment of having my own!🐶🩷 I’m currently not working so very flexible, I will be working part time from September when my son starts nursery, but my son is very used to pets (dogs, cats, rabbits). I live on family land, completely secure as my nan owns a very old spaniel (not in my property), with a big safe inescapable field for lots of running.
“I am so grateful to Charlotte for looking after Thor, our 7 year old German Shepherd overnight! This was his first time away from home since we got him from the Dogs Trust over a year ago and I was anxious that he may not settle well. Charlotte was extremely caring, thoughtful and professional. She was gentle with him and he made him feel at home, she texted me regularly to let me know how he settles and confirm his preferences and she also shared photos from his stay. When I picked him up he looked really happy, energetic and very well looked after. I am planning to rebook with Charlotte for a longer stay soon and I strongly recommend her!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Chase, received over the last three days. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in great hands. Chase came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. The care, attention, and love shown to him were truly appreciated. I would highly recommend this dog sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Chase—we’ll definitely be back!”
“Greta and her family were absolutely AMAZING with our border collie Monty! He was so happy and settled with them for the 10 days whilst we were away! This is the first time that we were unable to leave Monty with a family member due to everyone attending a wedding abroad in America, so we were nervous to do so. But the process of getting to know Greta and her family in the lead up to leaving Monty was such a pleasure! They took careful time to learn so much about Monty, he was so loved whilst with them, we were supplied with daily updates, photos and videos which meant we were constantly informed of Monty's adventures. The family matched his energy perfectly - it was almost as if he didn't want to leave and that is a testament to the families care and kindness! I could not recommend Greta enough and would certainly leave Monty with Greta again - THANK YOU!”
“Charley is a god send!! What a wonderful person, and dog sitter. I would always use Charley going forward as I have complete trust in him and my dog was so happy going back! Great communication and experience!”
“Great experience. We had to book in last minute as our original arrangements fell through and Niamh was brilliant: friendly, professional, caring and great communication. Our girl (Spaniel x Labrador) had a great time going on walks, swimming and chilling out afterwards. We would 100% recommend!”
“Kim was fabulous and Henry had the most wonderful time staying with her and her son. We received frequent photos and it was obvious that Henry was very much at home - he was even reluctant to leave!! Thank-you Kim!”
About: I’m a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter who understands that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, stick to their usual schedule. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection, I have cared for many dog breeds for my family and friends. My children are also very use to dogs and love to play games with dogs and give them lots of fuss. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and can easily fit into my daily routine. Dogs receive regular toilet breaks throughout the day, a morning walk to start the day as live close to numerous parks, and plenty of playtime and mental stimulation to keep them happy and engaged. I make time for feeding, cuddles, attention. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they can maintain their usual routine as closely as possible. Whether it’s energetic play, relaxing companionship, or simply sticking to familiar feeding and walking times, I make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special requirements before caring for them. I make sure the environment is safe, secure, and stress-free. I closely supervise pets, provide plenty of fresh water, regular toilet breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of affection. I always follow feeding schedules (if required), and any guidance provided by the owner to keep routines consistent. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own, ensuring pets feel relaxed, loved, and well cared for at all times.
“Dee clearly loves dogs and she was very good with ours. He was excited to see her and Sid again after our meet and greet. Dee took measures to keep him safe in the hot weather. Nothing was too much trouble and I would thoroughly recommend her- I will certainly be booking her again.”

“As soon as Tilly met Alessio I could tell she knew she was in safe hands, she can be a little wary of strangers but immediately went up to him for some fuss. Alessio sent me updates during each visit and lots of photos of Tilly enjoying his attention and fuss. I will definitely be asking Alessio to look after Tilly again during future holidays - I highly recommend.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the exceptional care Hannah provided for my cat, Oscar! From the moment I reached out, she was incredibly responsive and attentive. During my time away, Hannah gave me wonderful updates that reassured me Oscar was in good hands. It’s clear that Oscar adores her! Her loving and nurturing approach made a world of difference for both of us. I’m so grateful to have found such a reliable and caring cat sitter. I will always book Hannah in the future, and I couldn't recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a fantastic pet sitter! Thank you, Hannah! 🐾❤️”
“Ellie was very friendly and took great care of our cat. Communication was excellent throughout, with daily updates and pictures to keep us informed. Ellie gave us complete peace of mind while we were away, and we would happily recommend her!”
“Reached out to Sammie to regularly sit our pup Juno. She came for a meet and greet and Juno took to her very well. Sammie has sat for her a couple of times now, keeping regular updates, sending photos/videos. I’ve booked Sammie again for future sits, so i would highly recommend. Thanks Sammie”
About: I’m highly qualified holding a level 3 extended diploma in animal care and management, a certificate in canine first aid. I’m also fully insured and have over 3 years professional dog walking experience. I’m available for booking Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5pm and will always arrange an in person consultation prior to the first walk to introduce myself, talk about your dogs needs and how I can tailor the walks to your dogs needs I will always check with clients whether or not they are comfortable with their dog being off the lead and how they are with other dogs. This dramatically reduces the risk of any incidents and ensures the safety of your dogs. I also will never walk your dogs by roads and always opt for green spaces such as Sutton park.

I also follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to ensure the pet's safety and well-being during walks.
“Dorie provided an excellent service from the moment I messaged for availability. She connected with Sid from the moment she came to introduce herself. It was great to see how happy Sid was via the pictures and videos Dorie sent to me as part of her visits. Sid looked really happy and had the great bonus of two young people to play with him on the evening visit. Knowing Sid was well cared for made my day go a lot more smoothly. Thank you!”

“I would definitely recommend Kay to look after your cat. She did an amazing job looking after my 17 year old girl. When she cut her paw she informed us straight away and then gave us daily messages and pictures regarding her condition which was really nice. I would definitely use Kay again.”
“Emily was amazing! She kept us updated every day on how the cats were doing. She sent pictures and spent time with them and gave them a fuss! Our nervous cat, who usually hides from people, showed his face multiple times showing how gentle and friendly Emily was. We would definitely recommend Emily for anyone seeking a cat sitter.”

About: Proud parent of 2 beloved cats! Easily get along with all types of cats – shy, sassy, senior, or sprightly – they all come and stick around with me!

About: I have had pets since the age of 7, starting with a rabbit called Snowflake! I have always had dogs in the family and had a working cocker spaniel called Toby whilst I was growing up, who I trained myself! Myself and my partner started small with a hamster, but we now have our pampered Poochon Maisie. I have administered medication to dogs, so this isn't something that phases me, if your pup needs it! My prices are low because I want to be accessible for people, especially when kennel and doggy day care prices can be so expensive! I am currently flexible in the week and have weekend availability! Whether you just need someone to pop in and take them for a walk or go and sit with them for a few hours. I am happy to crate your dog if necessary. I also have a friendly poochon called Maisie who would love to make friends, however the 2 can be kept separate if preferred. With Sutton park on my doorstep, I can give your dog the exercise it needs!

“Luna had a lovely day with Kayan for her first experience of daycare. Kayan paid careful attention to Luna's routine and made her feel right at home. I was able to work, without worrying because Kayan sent me lovely photos and video updates with details of how Luna was getting on. We will definitely be back next week! Thank you, Kayan.”
About: - I have three cats, all of which I have cared for since they were kittens. - I have over five years of cat-raising experience. - During this time, I have helped my cats through giving birth, cared for cats with feline panleukopenia, and have experience administering medication. I am a full-time housewife. Other than taking my child to school and handling daily household chores, I am available to take care of your mother and spend time keeping her company. I prefer to care for pets in my own home because I am a full-time mum and need to look after my child. However, if the job only requires feeding twice a day and cleaning the litter box, I am able to help with that.
“Anita was so nice and warm to engage with. Our dog went on long walks and appears to have enjoyed her time with her. We are grateful and will be happy to leave Zuri with her again.”
“Niamh was brilliant with our little puppy. He stayed overnight and was really well looked after. Thank you to Niamh & family for being so kind and friendly with Bobby! We highly recommend ☺️”
About: Hi, I’m Natalia! Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for friends’ and family’s pups over the years, and I’m lucky enough to share my home with a wonderful dog of my own. Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel loved and comfortable. Your pup will be in caring, reliable hands with me, treated just like family! 🐕🐾 How pet care fits into my routine: Since I work from home, I am able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. Caring for pets already fits naturally into my routine. I start and end each day with walks, playtime, and quality time with my own dog. Working remotely allows me to be flexible with potty breaks, exercise, and check-ins, so your pup will never feel rushed or alone for too long. On weekends I enjoy taking longer walks or spending extra time outdoors, which makes it easy to include even more fun and care. For me, looking after dogs is not just part of the schedule, it is something I truly enjoy every day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They get plenty of love, playtime, and attention throughout the day, along with regular walks and potty breaks to keep them happy and healthy. I make sure each dog has a comfortable space to relax and feel safe, whether that means snuggling on the couch or having their own cozy spot. Since I work from home, I am able to give them consistent care and companionship, making sure they never feel lonely. My goal is to create a warm, safe, and fun environment where every pet feels loved and right at home.

I love dogs and I want to make sure that your dog feels like part of the family when they are with us. We have a large fenced garden and a park close by. Our pets are crate trained and sleep in their crate. We usually use the crate when we have a new furry friend visiting to ensure that everyone is safe and comfortable. I will be the only one responsible for the care of your pet.

“Alessio was great. It was my first time using Rover to look for someone for our dogs (I’m usually a sitter/walker myself) and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. He took the time to meet my dogs beforehand and put me at ease straight away. My dogs are very large and this did not phase him. He was really responsive to messages and kept me updated during the visit itself. The dogs looked very happy in the photos shared and I’d be very happy to book Alessio again should the requirement arise.”
About: I am a zoology and conservation student at Bangor university and I have worked in 2 different businesses revolved around dogs: greyhounds daybreaks and doggy daycare. The greyhounds daybreaks required me to take care of the dogs that were in the establishment by walking them, feeding them, bathing them and playing with them. There would be the same dogs there for weeks as people would drop them off when they’ve gone on holiday so I was able to connect with them very well. I worked there for 2 years starting off there for my DofE but I carried it on after completion. The other experience I have at doggy daycare was when I completed 150 hours of work experience for my college animal management course. At Doggy Daycare I would look after a variety of dog breeds all day making sure they were safe, bathed and fed if they needed to be. I have a passion for animals especially dogs and have lots of experience. I am currently working part time at a restaurant called willow and back from university for the summer so I have plenty of time to take care of your dogs! I have experience taking care of dogs and knowledge of their behaviours to create a safe environment for them. I will also listen to how you want me to take care of them in detail.
About: I’m an experienced dog owner and carer, and my own German Shepherd Dog is a certified Pets As Therapy dog, which reflects a calm, responsible, and reliable approach to animal care. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions, maintaining routines, and communicating clearly with owners. Additionally, I also have many years of experience caring for and managing multiple rental and holiday properties, including overseeing maintenance, security, and day-to-day responsibilities. House sitting suits my lifestyle well. I work largely from home as a children’s author, which means I’m present throughout the day and able to give pets consistent attention. I enjoy quiet, settled environments, long walks, and spending time in nature, which makes caring for dogs especially rewarding. NOTE: With stays longer than three nights, I will need to bring my well-behaved German Shepherd. He gets on with other dogs, but if your dog does not, then I am not the right fit for stays longer than three days. I care for pets in a calm, secure, and familiar way, always following the owner’s instructions and the pet’s usual routine. Whether in my home or a pet owner’s home, I focus on creating a relaxed environment where pets feel safe, settled, and well cared for. Safety is always a priority. I’m careful with doors, gates, leads, and outdoor access, and I only introduce dogs to new environments or other animals gradually and sensibly. Walks, play, feeding, and rest are tailored to each pet’s needs, age, and energy level. I take trust very seriously. I’m DBS checked through my work with schools, and I can also supply a letter-headed solicitor’s reference from the Principal of a law firm who has known me professionally since 2009. I treat every home and pet with respect, confidentiality, and care, and aim to give owners complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over six years and currently share my home with a lovely Border Collie who loves making new friends. I understand what active dogs need — plenty of walks, playtime, and patience! I don’t take cats, so it’s a relaxed, dog-only environment where your pup can feel right at home. Since I’m home most of the time, walks and care easily fit into my daily routine. I take the dogs out three times a day — morning, midday, and evening — and make sure they get enough exercise and fresh air. I’m flexible with timings for drop-offs and pick-ups too. Dogs staying here follow the same house rules as my own pup — plenty of structure, no rough play indoors, and lots of outdoor fun. Walks are always on a secure lead, and dogs are never left unsupervised. My home is calm, tidy, and dog-friendly, so your pet can relax, play, and feel completely at ease while you’re away.
About: Lifelong dog owner with hands on experience. Helped run my mum’s dog boarding business and now work from home, offering attentive, loving care every day. I work from home full time, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention and regular toilet breaks throughout the day. I’m available for daycare, walks and drop in visits, with flexible availability to suit your needs. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my priority. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, medication and any house rules. I’ll provide plenty of attention, play, cuddles and updates, ensuring they feel comfortable, secure and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have had lots of experience looking after dogs. I worked at my local vets when I was younger. Until very recently I had my own beautiful smooth collie Belle. who sadly went over the rainbow 🌈 at 13 1/2 years old. I miss her so much and miss all the walks we had over the years. I would now love to be able to take care for dogs that need a bit more attention and maybe longer walks. I have plenty of time to offer as I am officially retired now. I have experience with older dogs and happy to have the challenge of a puppy too. I am very much of the opinion that all dogs need a routine and I am willing to offer this and will keep to the owners instructions as requested. I can now look after dogs to suit any dog owners requirements. I am completely flexible and as I am retired. I can start early or finish later whatever is needed. I can now offer a tranquil space at my house which offers lots of open spaces, including open fields. I do have a secure large garden on offer, where dogs can run freely and in a safe environment. There is also lots of outside space around my house. Local walks could include Sutton Park but there are lots of other quieter walks around. I will always make sure they have meals at the allotted time, fresh water on hand. Grooming as required. I am happy to administer any medication if required. Mainly keeping the doggies happy and content whilst they are on holiday just like those owners.
About: I’ve always felt most at home around animals, their unconditional love and trust make them the best companions. My earliest memories are of horses in my family’s stables in South Africa and volunteering at a local rescue centre in Birmingham. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of animals, from big cats and zebras at a wildlife rehabilitation centre in South Africa to countless rescue pets, each with their own personality. There’s nothing quite like the moment an animal begins to trust you—it’s incredibly special. My beloved husky, Meeka (who appears in some of my photos), passed away recently, and I would be so grateful for the chance to spend time with your furry friends. I have just graduated from central saint martins and am excited to start a new role in september, so i have a lot of free time on my hands. i take pride in understanding the body language of any animal, after years of being in their company, communication becomes second nature as all living things I’ve found communicate in similar ways. I pride myself in the ability of clear communication and hence an apt accommodation of their needs.
About: Hi! I’m Emily, a personable dog and cat sitter based in Birmingham. Alongside my love for all animals, I have had experience taking care of both dogs and cats through family friends and will try my best to give your sweet pets the best experience. I have experience in daycare and overnight stays and I would be happy to introduce dog walking. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions - so excited to start taking care of your beloved pets! 🐾 I’m currently a university student, so during the summer I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. This means I can give your pet lots of attention, exercise, playtime and companionship throughout the day. During term time, I’ll continue to keep my calendar updated so owners always know my availability! I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my top priority. I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet before any booking so both you and your pet can get to know me and make sure everyone feels comfortable. Every dog is different, so I believe it’s important to build that trust before you’re away. I’ll follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication and any specific care instructions. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates throughout your time away, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and your home is being treated with the utmost respect.
“Absolutely amazing service from Jennifer. From the first meeting I felt confident Olly would love his walks and that Jennifer clearly loved dogs. The updates, photos and comments were so lovely to read and it was great to see Olly having fun! Will definitely request Jennifer again!”
About: I have previously loved looked after many types of dogs for long periods of time whilst friends and family have been on holidays! As a family, we used to have a Yorkshire terrier (as you can see in the photos) who lived a happy and long life until she sadly passed away last year. I am well experienced with handling dogs needs having owned one previously and having many opportunities to look after them. I often enjoy long walks and runs so I can ensure that your pets will be well entertained!! :))) I am currently a university student finished for the summer! I have a fully flexible schedule so please don’t hesitate to ask if you would like to book at awkward times! I have a large fenced back garden. However, if you have a large dog a bed may need to be provided as I only have a small bed and blankets!!
“Sammie is very friendly and definitely comfortable around dogs. She has a good approach with both of my dogs, one of whom is quite nervous/shy, and the other is quite lively and sometimes noisy, but Sammie is able to interact with each dog, as appropriate.”
About: Hi, I’m Natalia! Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for friends’ and family’s pups over the years, and I’m lucky enough to share my home with a wonderful dog of my own. Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, or just keeping them company, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel loved and comfortable. Your pup will be in caring, reliable hands with me, treated just like family! 🐕🐾 How pet care fits into my routine: Since I work from home, I am able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. Caring for pets already fits naturally into my routine. I start and end each day with walks, playtime, and quality time with my own dog. Working remotely allows me to be flexible with potty breaks, exercise, and check-ins, so your pup will never feel rushed or alone for too long. On weekends I enjoy taking longer walks or spending extra time outdoors, which makes it easy to include even more fun and care. For me, looking after dogs is not just part of the schedule, it is something I truly enjoy every day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They get plenty of love, playtime, and attention throughout the day, along with regular walks and potty breaks to keep them happy and healthy. I make sure each dog has a comfortable space to relax and feel safe, whether that means snuggling on the couch or having their own cozy spot. Since I work from home, I am able to give them consistent care and companionship, making sure they never feel lonely. My goal is to create a warm, safe, and fun environment where every pet feels loved and right at home.
About: I've had dogs for over 20 years. Currently have 2 frenchies. My kids love dogs and as a family we regularly have our friends dogs whilst they are away. I work from home so am flexible, but only if I have had the necessary notice to be able to plan around the care of an additional pet. I love dogs and I want to make sure that your dog feels like part of the family when they are with us. We have a large fenced garden and a park close by. Our pets are crate trained and sleep in their crate. We usually use the crate when we have a new furry friend visiting to ensure that everyone is safe and comfortable. I will be the only one responsible for the care of your pet.

“Georgina is absolutely amazing with our rescue dog Athena. Not only is she super patient and kind but also keeps us reassured every step of the way. I could not recommend Georgina enough - she feels more like a friend than just a dog sitter and it’s evident to anybody how much she loves and cares about the dogs she looks after ❤️”
About: Hi, my names Lauren and I have a lot of experience with dogs. From having dogs of my own from the age of 4, I've learnt how special and important they are to people and why they need the best care. As well as having my own dogs, I've also volunteered at Bark Doggy Day Care in Walmley. This helped me learn the different needs and assets of different dog breeds. With the variety of age at Bark, I have experience with young, old and medium age dogs. Due to my own dogs too, I have experience with large and smaller dogs aswell. I currently work 2 days a week in Birmingham City centre. This allows me to have a wider availability of 5 days to give your pets more of my attention. However, i can still sit on those 2 days but I'd have to leave and come back for work! Before my visit/walk, I will always ask to meet your pet first in order to get to know them and to learn what type of care they need and how often. For example, their house rules, medicine or walks. This is to make me fully understand how to care for your dog whilst I have them in order to give them a better experience.
About: I’m highly qualified holding a level 3 extended diploma in animal care and management, a certificate in canine first aid. I’m also fully insured and have over 3 years professional dog walking experience. I’m available for booking Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5pm and will always arrange an in person consultation prior to the first walk to introduce myself, talk about your dogs needs and how I can tailor the walks to your dogs needs I will always check with clients whether or not they are comfortable with their dog being off the lead and how they are with other dogs. This dramatically reduces the risk of any incidents and ensures the safety of your dogs. I also will never walk your dogs by roads and always opt for green spaces such as Sutton park.
About: Purr-fect Pet Pro & Parent of 2! 🐾✨ Friends’ dogs beg for my ear scratches & playful romps! I’m super attentive, share their joy, and give puppy training, senior care, behavior fixes. I’m currently staying at home for good, so I have plenty of times to play with the pups! Available for any time during the weeks! We have a shared back-garden that is locked and safe. Also have a lovely room with cosy vibe for the pups to walk and stay with.
About: I have had pets since the age of 7, starting with a rabbit called Snowflake! I have always had dogs in the family and had a working cocker spaniel called Toby whilst I was growing up, who I trained myself! Myself and my partner started small with a hamster, but we now have our pampered Poochon Maisie. I have administered medication to dogs, so this isn't something that phases me, if your pup needs it! My prices are low because I want to be accessible for people, especially when kennel and doggy day care prices can be so expensive! I am currently flexible in the week and have weekend availability! Whether you just need someone to pop in and take them for a walk or go and sit with them for a few hours. I am happy to crate your dog if necessary. I also have a friendly poochon called Maisie who would love to make friends, however the 2 can be kept separate if preferred. With Sutton park on my doorstep, I can give your dog the exercise it needs!

“This is the second time we have use Wai San and our dog Tux is very happy there. We get regular photos of what he is doing and it means can relax and enjoy our holiday. I would definitely recommend Wai San and Tux will visit them again next time we need to go away. Thank you for looking after him so well.”
“Our 4 year old Labradoodle, Albert, has just returned from a wonderful stay with Anita. She took him on lovely walks in lots of different places, often including an extra evening stroll near her lovely home. It was immediately clear how happy and well-cared-for he was, he ate really well, received plenty of company and attention, and came home relaxed and content. Anita sent regular updates and photos throughout his stay, which we looked forward to every day. She clearly loves dogs and provides excellent care. We would happily leave Albert with her again in the future and highly recommend her to other dog owners.”
“I am so grateful to Charlotte for looking after Thor, our 7 year old German Shepherd overnight! This was his first time away from home since we got him from the Dogs Trust over a year ago and I was anxious that he may not settle well. Charlotte was extremely caring, thoughtful and professional. She was gentle with him and he made him feel at home, she texted me regularly to let me know how he settles and confirm his preferences and she also shared photos from his stay. When I picked him up he looked really happy, energetic and very well looked after. I am planning to rebook with Charlotte for a longer stay soon and I strongly recommend her!”
“Great experience. We had to book in last minute as our original arrangements fell through and Niamh was brilliant: friendly, professional, caring and great communication. Our girl (Spaniel x Labrador) had a great time going on walks, swimming and chilling out afterwards. We would 100% recommend!”
“Kim was fabulous and Henry had the most wonderful time staying with her and her son. We received frequent photos and it was obvious that Henry was very much at home - he was even reluctant to leave!! Thank-you Kim!”

“Was out first time leaving Toby, Sue and her family ensured they got to know Toby and all his normal home comforts were met while he was with them. We felt at ease with him being there and recieved lots of lovely updates on how he was getting on along with pictures ☺️ Excellent service. Nothing was too much. We are already booked back in for Toby to have another stay with Sue and her family ☺️”
About: I have taken care of dogs for 20 year from my families to neighbours and other peoples from small dogs to large dogs. I absolutely love looking after dogs and if they get dirty I will even bath them to make them shine for the return. I am a stay at home mum two 1 but goes on losts of walks and park trips more out going on long walks out in the open I have fencing all round, lots of toys for them to play with so never get bored. I have a dog of my own. Ruby a cocker spaniel so will always have a fury friend to play with. Lots of space and lots of treats for good doggy's. And trips to the park and open field for plenty of excersise.
“Leanne was fantastic. Jabba had a great time & Leanne sent over lots of update & photos whilst we were away. I would highly recommend & we will definitely use Leanne again for our next trip away!”
“Damian is fantastic my dog Sheba had a blast he taught her not to be possessive of her toys and she played lovely with his dogs. He sent many updates it was so sweet to watch her have fun. I 100% recommend him she will be back there soon”
“We booked John, to look after our dog for a week as doggy boarding. John was a great dog sitter. Looked after Benson superbly, frequent walks, treats and lots of fuss. Benson came home happy and relaxed, having loved his time there. John was incredibly responsive from first enquiry, to meet and greet and then throughout the stay. Frequent videos, photos and info every day meant we were kept up to speed with how Benson was getting on. Would highly recommend John as a dog sitter, he showed genuine care and affection. Hopefully Benson will be welcome back in the future!”
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs. I had my family dog for 14 wonderful years, and later my partner and I welcomed his brother’s dog into our home following a family separation. He was part of our family for 7 years before we sadly lost him 4 years ago. Although we haven’t replaced him, we’ve continued to care for dogs by looking after family members’ pets while they’re on holiday or away for weekends. We both genuinely love spending time with dogs and have really missed our daily walks and having a furry companion around the house. After giving it a lot of thought, we’ve decided to open our home to other dogs so we can provide them with a safe, loving, and comfortable place to stay. Our home has a large, secure back garden with easy access through side gates and from the kitchen. We also have air conditioning, which helps keep dogs cool and comfortable during warmer weather. We’re lucky to live just a 12-minute walk (or a 2-minute drive) from a beautiful local lake and park with plenty of open space, perfect for enjoyable walks, playtime, and exercise. Your dog’s safety is my priority. I never let dogs off the lead unless I have the owner’s permission and know they have reliable recall. To ensure every dog receives plenty of attention and care, I only accept one booking at a time unless the dogs are from the same household. I know how reassuring it is to know your pet is happy while you’re away, so I’ll send daily photo updates and messages to give you peace of mind. My aim is for your dog to feel relaxed, loved, and to enjoy their own little holiday while staying with us. For extra reassurance, I have completed a Canine First Aid course, giving me the knowledge to respond appropriately should an emergency ever arise. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I enjoy making pets feel like part of the family while they’re staying with us. I work every Wednesday and Thursday and every other weekend, but my partner is home on weekends and is usually home by early afternoon on weekdays, so boarded dogs are rarely left alone for long. Outside of work, I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and maintaining each dog’s usual routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’m committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and loving home while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We have a large, fully fenced and secure back garden where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time safely. Our home is pet-friendly, child-free, non-smoking, and there are no other family pets, providing a calm and relaxed environment for dogs who prefer a quieter setting. Before each stay, I’ll take the time to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, dietary needs, and any medical requirements so I can provide care that’s tailored to them. I’ll follow your instructions closely, supervise pets carefully, and provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
“We had a great experience with Jun. Olivia is not the easiest dog, but Jun quickly learned her quirks and took great care of her. He also sent us daily updates and pictures, which put our mind at ease and allowed us to truly enjoy our holiday without any worries.”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a child myself and had a dog as a kid. Since then my own parents have had other dogs which I’ve obviously loved and cared for as and when, whilst unable to have a dog of my own. Circumstances - ie work - mean I can’t commit to having my own dog full time, to my son’s dismay, but we have so much love and affection for dogs that Rover is a perfect fit for us. I’ve only ticked availability for when my son and I can live our best life and share that time with your beautiful dog. We are always out and about exploring Lichfield and living life to the fullest…and spending time with a pooch pal would complete that way of life! Full disclosure we live in a flat but is as pet friendly as flats can be. We literally live opposite Stowe Pool playing fields and like I say to my 9-year-old, we have one of the biggest gardens in Lichfield. We would love a dog to walk, to stay with us and maybe even play cricket with us!
About: I’ve been looking after dogs since I was 5, supporting Guide Dogs with my Grandmother. I currently have two Labradors of my own, Bumble and Martha. I have experience in training dogs of all ages and supporting with behavioural issues through my Flyball team. I have already looked after dogs of all ages, including walking, training and engagement. I’m a really active person and love being out and about! I’m currently working part-time, flexibly so I have lots of time to play with your pups! I can work around schedules to ensure I am flexible if needed. I always ensure I do the best for the dogs I look after (including my own!) I never leave dogs for longer than 4 hours, and ensure dogs get the relevant amount of exercise and enrichment daily.
About: I have over a year of dog walking experience and have also worked in a doggy daycare, where I got hands-on experience caring for lots of dogs with different personalities in a fun, safe, and social environment. I’ve recently started my own pet sitting and dog walking business, Krumble’s Cuddle and Care, which I’m really passionate about—being able to spend my days with animals is exactly why I started it! I’m fully insured, have a full DBS check, and I’m first aid trained, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe, loving, and capable hands 🐾 Pet care is a big part of my everyday life and something I genuinely love. I run my own pet sitting and dog walking business, Krumble Cuddle and Care, so my daily routine already revolves around caring for animals and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well looked after. At home, I have my own little animal family—my cockapoo Krumble (who inspired my business), two chinchillas, and a tortoise—so I’m always busy with feeding, cleaning, walks, playtime, and giving them lots of love and attention. Because of this, caring for pets just fits naturally into my day. I’m used to sticking to routines, being reliable, and making sure every animal gets the time, care, and cuddles they need 🐾 I understand that every dog is different, and each one needs its own level of care, patience, and understanding. That’s why I take the time to get to know every dog I work with, paying close attention to their individual personality, confidence levels, and specific needs. I’ve had experience with a wide range of breeds—from larger, more energetic dogs like Dobermans, Ridgebacks, and Shepherds, to smaller breeds such as Dachshunds and Shih Tzus—so I’m confident adapting my approach to suit each dog. I genuinely enjoy a challenge and love helping dogs feel comfortable, happy, and secure. Building trust with the dogs I care for is always my top priority, as I believe it’s the foundation for providing the best possible care.
“We were so glad we found Kieran and Mike. From the very start they were incredibly patient and caring with Oliver which allowed him to settle into their lovely home. Oliver got on amazingly with their two dogs, Loki and Bruce - it seems like he had a holiday of his own. Oliver already misses his new buddies. We were kept up to date with messages and photos, which made us relaxed - knowing Oliver was having a fun time and being cared for so wonderfully. We would 100% recommend them and would absolutely be happy for them to look after Oliver again.”
“Nola loved her stay with Helen. She went on lots of walks and was well looked after. Helen kept in touch all the time we were away with photos of Nola - we have already booked to reuse Helen again.”
“Emma and Adam are wonderful dog sitters; they looked after our dachshund for 24hrs while we were getting married. Very friendly and confident in looking after him, felt very relaxed that he was in good hands. Thank you!!”
