“We were a bit nervous about leaving the dogs with strangers but so glad we did. Our dogs can be hyperactive and slightly anxious about us leaving but we felt at ease leaving them. The family have a dog as well and constantly reassured us. We were sent photos and updates throughout and the dogs clearly had a great time as well. We have already booked a stay again in April and this is due to the friendly and welcoming atmosphere that we were met with. Thank you all so much again! 😊”
About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience with a wide range of animals. I’ve grown up caring for cats, dogs, and even reptiles, so I’m comfortable adapting to different temperaments, routines, and needs. I’m especially confident with young pets, helping reinforce basic training, good habits, and consistent routines. I also provide attentive senior care, making sure older pets are comfortable, supported, and given the extra patience they need. Above all, I treat every pet as an individual—paying close attention to their personality, behaviour, and wellbeing so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work 9–5, so I’m available for morning visits before work and evening visits afterwards, making sure pets are fed, exercised, and comfortable at the start and end of each day. On weekdays, I plan my schedule so each pet gets consistent care and attention, and I’m fully available for longer visits, drop-ins, or overnight stays during evenings. On weekends, I have much more flexibility, so I can offer extended care, multiple visits, or more time with your pet. I always make sure pets’ routines are followed closely, so they feel settled and well looked after even when their owners are away. Always happy to discuss in more details I tailor my care depending on the service and what each pet is used to, so they feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a pet owner’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine—feeding, fresh water, cleaning (including litter trays), exercise, and playtime. I take time to understand their personality, whether they’re energetic, shy, or independent, and make sure they get the right level of attention. I’m especially mindful of keeping their environment calm and familiar, which is important for cats and more sensitive pets like reptiles. I can also provide updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. If caring in my home (if applicable), I create a safe, clean, and quiet environment where pets can settle in comfortably. I keep routines consistent, supervise them closely, and make sure they have plenty of enrichment, attention, and rest. I’m careful to introduce any new environment gradually, especially for more delicate or routine-driven animals. We have a fenced garden Across both settings, I focus on reliability, cleanliness, and making sure every pet feels secure, well cared for, and treated like my own.
“Holly and James looked after our cocker spaniel Tara when we went away for nearly two weeks. Tara seemed to really love both of them, and almost every update we received (which were daily) from them often showed her being cuddled or looking very relaxed. We will definitely be asking them to look after her the next time we go away. We couldn't be happier with how they looked after her.”
“It was a pleasure leaving Willow in Hayley's care. Hayley was very affectionate tiwards Willow on arrival. Willow was not anxious on my leaving and she didn't attempt to follow me. I came back to find a happy dog. Hayley sent updates and pictures of my baby of the day and evening”
“"5-star treatment! We couldn't be happier with the care our dogs received from Amy. Very professional, kind, and clearly experienced with animals. Our dogs were happy and relaxed when we picked him up; he obviously felt right at home. We feel lucky to have found such a trustworthy sitter”
About: Throughout my life I have been brought up around dogs, my family dog is a cavapoo called Rolo and also a cocker spaniel called Ralphy. I have also grown up around my dad’s German Shepard called Cassie!:) Since moving out of the family home I now own my own little best friend, Marcie, who is a crazy cocker spaniel:) Additionally I also own 2 cats, Tilly and Loumi (short for halloumi) who mostly roam outside or are snoozing in their cat tree.

I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean up feeding areas and litter trays if needed, and spend quality time with them through play, attention, or calm company depending on their personality. I will also provide updates and send pictures (if you consent) of your furry bestie! 📸 I am also DBS checked if you require it :)

About: I’ve grown up around cats, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I understand their different personalities—from playful and social to shy and independent—and I’m patient in earning their trust so they feel safe and relaxed in their own home.

I stick closely to their routine, keep their environment clean and calm, and make sure they get the right balance of play, affection, and quiet time.

Choosing me means your cat will be looked after by someone who genuinely understands them and will treat them with the same care and respect as you do.

We had a dog who had quite bad separation anxiety so we’re used to working our schedule around any furry friends!

“Lili dragged me from the car, to Hayley’s house and burst in, transparently delighted to greet Hayley and Josh again. She came home tired and happy, at the end of a fun-packed day. Everything I could want, in a pet sitter.”
“Our Collie Ali had such a lovely day with Nicola for the first time today. We planned a trip to Alton Towers, and being so close to the park, we felt happy to have a family day out, without Ali missing out on some fun. She was clearly very comfortable and felt at home almost immediately. We received photos throughout the day, keeping us reassured that she was having a good time. The house has a lovely, secured garden…which our dog was very excited to explore. Ali is excited to spend another day with Nicola for our next Alton Towers trip.”
“Cannot recommend Elizabeth & her partner enough. Kept me updated with pictures throughout the day which was lovely and reassuring; Nelly thoroughly enjoyed herself & is exhausted now. 100% will be booking again :)”
“Wonderful family. Took Poppy on a trip out to the forest with their dog, Evie. Poppy can sometimes be a little unpredictable with other dogs and yet, they were fully mindful of this, gave her a lot of exercise, love and attention and gave her free reign of their house - their dog, Evie, is clearly very comfortable with other dogs around and overall I felt that this family go "above and beyond", even going so far as to drive over to my house to drop her off at the end of the day. Honestly one of the best experiences for myself and for Poppy and I would certainly use again. Just an amazing experience!! 5******”
“Our 5 month old puppy had an absolutely amazing time with Megan. I felt really comfortable knowing that she was going to be well looked after, and Megan is clearly a natural with animals! Definitely recommend”

“Luna has had a fantastic day today! Thank you for all of the photo’s and updates on her special day with you - I’m so pleased that they got on so well together. We look forward to you looking after her again this week.”
“Luna had a lovely stay with Johannah. I wanted Luna to spend the day with Johannah as she will be staying for 2 nights soon when I have my wedding, so wanted to make sure she was settled and comfortable without me being there. Johannah very kindly sent me updates during the day with photos and videos, and I could see how Luna enjoyed her walk and being out in the garden. I can’t recommend Johannah highly enough 😊”
“Charlie was amazing with our pup Sky. We’ve got lots of updates about their day and communication was perfect, it made us feel at ease knowing our dog was in good hands! Thank you so much Charlie 🙏”

“We booked Hannah to walk our dog Loki all week whilst I was away on a work trip and my partner struggled to balance our 10 week old baby and walking Loki. Hannah created such a great bond with Loki straight away and after a couple of days he was sat waiting by the door for her to arrive at 10am!

She’s neutered, well-mannered, and used to being around other dogs. As a registered nurse and mum of two, I’m naturally attentive and nurturing, and I bring that same care into how I look after animals. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love spending time with them—whether it’s a cuddle on the sofa or a walk through the woods. I’m home most of the time, and with plenty of lovely walking spots nearby, I make sure dogs get fresh air, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I treat every dog like family—with love, patience, and a calm, safe environment where they can feel right at home. I currently work part-time, which means I have plenty of free time to devote to your pup’s needs. My flexible routine allows for long walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I’m available for boarding both during weekdays and weekends, ensuring your dog has companionship and care while you’re away. Dogs truly fit into my everyday routine, as I'm used to building our day around Evie and her needs. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. Whether it’s keeping them on their routine, providing medication if needed, or giving them cosy spots to rest, I always prioritise their well-being. Your pup will be cared for as if they were my own—getting plenty of love, play, and attention in a calm, safe environment.

My goal is to help all cats and dogs live happy and healthy lives. I work as a freelancer, so I can arrange my own schedule and do my best to take care of your pets!

I can provide a loving home for your pets.
“Charlie is absolutely lovely to work with. She's punctual, approachable, and Harris took to her straight away which is rare as Harris usually cautious with new people. We are so happy to have found Charlie and are excited for many more walks as well as potential house sitting in the future. Highly recommend her!”

“We were a bit nervous about leaving the dogs with strangers but so glad we did. Our dogs can be hyperactive and slightly anxious about us leaving but we felt at ease leaving them. The family have a dog as well and constantly reassured us. We were sent photos and updates throughout and the dogs clearly had a great time as well. We have already booked a stay again in April and this is due to the friendly and welcoming atmosphere that we were met with. Thank you all so much again! 😊”
About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience with a wide range of animals. I’ve grown up caring for cats, dogs, and even reptiles, so I’m comfortable adapting to different temperaments, routines, and needs. I’m especially confident with young pets, helping reinforce basic training, good habits, and consistent routines. I also provide attentive senior care, making sure older pets are comfortable, supported, and given the extra patience they need. Above all, I treat every pet as an individual—paying close attention to their personality, behaviour, and wellbeing so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work 9–5, so I’m available for morning visits before work and evening visits afterwards, making sure pets are fed, exercised, and comfortable at the start and end of each day. On weekdays, I plan my schedule so each pet gets consistent care and attention, and I’m fully available for longer visits, drop-ins, or overnight stays during evenings. On weekends, I have much more flexibility, so I can offer extended care, multiple visits, or more time with your pet. I always make sure pets’ routines are followed closely, so they feel settled and well looked after even when their owners are away. Always happy to discuss in more details I tailor my care depending on the service and what each pet is used to, so they feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a pet owner’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine—feeding, fresh water, cleaning (including litter trays), exercise, and playtime. I take time to understand their personality, whether they’re energetic, shy, or independent, and make sure they get the right level of attention. I’m especially mindful of keeping their environment calm and familiar, which is important for cats and more sensitive pets like reptiles. I can also provide updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. If caring in my home (if applicable), I create a safe, clean, and quiet environment where pets can settle in comfortably. I keep routines consistent, supervise them closely, and make sure they have plenty of enrichment, attention, and rest. I’m careful to introduce any new environment gradually, especially for more delicate or routine-driven animals. We have a fenced garden Across both settings, I focus on reliability, cleanliness, and making sure every pet feels secure, well cared for, and treated like my own.
“Holly and James looked after our cocker spaniel Tara when we went away for nearly two weeks. Tara seemed to really love both of them, and almost every update we received (which were daily) from them often showed her being cuddled or looking very relaxed. We will definitely be asking them to look after her the next time we go away. We couldn't be happier with how they looked after her.”
“It was a pleasure leaving Willow in Hayley's care. Hayley was very affectionate tiwards Willow on arrival. Willow was not anxious on my leaving and she didn't attempt to follow me. I came back to find a happy dog. Hayley sent updates and pictures of my baby of the day and evening”
“"5-star treatment! We couldn't be happier with the care our dogs received from Amy. Very professional, kind, and clearly experienced with animals. Our dogs were happy and relaxed when we picked him up; he obviously felt right at home. We feel lucky to have found such a trustworthy sitter”
About: Throughout my life I have been brought up around dogs, my family dog is a cavapoo called Rolo and also a cocker spaniel called Ralphy. I have also grown up around my dad’s German Shepard called Cassie!:) Since moving out of the family home I now own my own little best friend, Marcie, who is a crazy cocker spaniel:) Additionally I also own 2 cats, Tilly and Loumi (short for halloumi) who mostly roam outside or are snoozing in their cat tree. I have experience with working in a local kennels- however I now attend uni studying mental health nursing. At the moment I am currently a full time student, however I normally only attend uni 3 days a week and mostly finish at around 3/4pm so I am available most mornings/evenings. I’m pretty flexible with my availability and I’m home a lot of the time:) so can be around for your animals needs 🩷 In addition I will try as much as possible to stick to your animals routine to ensure familiarity and reduced stress🐶 I have a lovely fenced off garden and my own dog Marcie who is more then happy to keep your dog company (however shyer dogs may prefer time away from Marcie as she can sometimes be too eager to play)! 🐶 When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean up feeding areas and litter trays if needed, and spend quality time with them through play, attention, or calm company depending on their personality. I will also provide updates and send pictures (if you consent) of your furry bestie! 📸 I am also DBS checked if you require it :)

About: I've grown up around dogs and horses and have had my own dogs for many years. Currently we have an extremely kind and friendly border collie, he is neutered and 5 years old. I love dog sitting and being exposed to all of the different personalities and charms other people's dog have to offer. I am home full time. I moved to Stafford from London for my husbands RAF posting. I am an avid adventurer and enjoy taking the dogs to all of our local spots, Cannock Chase being a particular favourite! I have a fenced, large garden. I only look after one other families dog/s at a time to ensure safety and that your pets feel like home away from home and to allow free roaming.
