About: I have had experience of dogs since age 8 when my parents had 2 golden retrievers. There has only been a period of around 10 years in my life where I have not lived with dogs. I have bred rottweilers and German shepherds. I am a house husband so apart from nipping the shops, I am at home 95% of the time. We live in a rural area and within a 5 minute walk there is access to fields, woods and walks right by the wrekin. My whole life is pet care at the moment, I love it We have a good sized enclosed garden with dog flap doors which lead to the garden. I am a house husband and am at home 95% of the time. I take my dogs out for 3 to 4 walks a day starting very early in the morning. Our dogs are very playful and freindly with other dogs. I have had many a relatives dog stay over whilst they are away so I am very used to looking after multiple dogs. I have raised a few litters of pups, the last litter 12/2025.
“I was quite anxious leaving Elsa for the Easter weekend, but Sheila put me at ease from the very first meet-and-greet. Throughout Elsa’s stay, we received frequent updates and pictures that reassured me. Elsa clearly had a wonderful time, and I would absolutely trust Sheila again without hesitation. Thanks so much for looking after my baby so well ❤️”
“I left my 2 poochies with Rebecca over the weekend and they had the best time. Rebecca sent me updates and pictures and assured me that everything was going well with the two dogs. I can only recommend her and I will definitely ask her to look after my poochies again. Thanks Rebecca 🥰✨️”
“Gemma looked after my little dog Lottie fantastically. Great communication while I was away. She clearly loves doggies and was confident and competent too. Will ask Gemma again next time we need doggy care”
About: I’ve had pets all my life including caring for guide dogs whilst they are in training. I occasionally look after friends and family’s pets when they are away. I am on maternity leave for a year so have plenty of time and availability I’m currently on maternity leave so I am available every day for walks, check ins or looking after your pet. I walk my dog Bella once a day locally I have a fenced garden with plenty of walking routes nearby. I have spare crates in size small and large if required. I have a 10 year old dog who enjoys other dogs company
“Lauren did a beautiful job of looking after my dog for me at short notice. I got lots of photos and updates and was able to enjoy a trip away without worrying. Thank you Lauren for taking such good care of Charlie.”
About: I was a dog mom for 13 years and my beautiful best friend Amigo had the best life any dog could ask for. I love animals deeply and I moved to the area I live just for my dog. My house is fully dog proof with a dog flap, garden and woodlands right outside the front door. He passed away 5 months ago and I can’t bear to have another dog of my own, but the house is quiet and I miss being able to look after a furry friend. Amigo was a white German shepherd so I am used to big dogs and the needs of a “working” dog breed. If you want your dog to be looked after with the amount of love you give them, then I am your gal. My best friend Jenny is also a boarder / walker, so if there is any time where I need to pop out shortly she can normally pop in and keep your fur babies some company . I work from home currently and did so, so that I could be with my dog before he passed. I can give a lot of attention to your furry friend as they will be here right with me. I also have a dog flap so there always free to go outside as much as they like. *If I am out for any reason my bestie who is a dog boarder & walker can pop by. She also lives down the road from me which is a plus. So be rest assured that your fur baby will be well looked after. I have a fenced in garden, and a two story house so there is enough space (my German Shepard was very comfortable here and didn’t have any issues). You tell me how many treats your pet can have and I’ll provide the cuddles and playtimes. * Jenny also has a fenced garden. She has a 4 bedroom 2 story new build which is stunning.

I’m confident administering medication, monitoring for signs of illness, and caring for senior cats and those with medical conditions.

“Absolutely thrilled to have found Eve on here! After a last minute panic needing our dogs looking after whilst we all went away, she came and met our dogs (who absolutely loved her!) within 24 hours and was fantastic during each of her visits. Photos, updates and comments each time and we are so thankful that she was able to come with such short notice. Thank you! We’ll definitely be seeing you again- I know Max and Peppa will be happy with that! 😍”
“What can I say about Clare...she is simply perfect in every way. Our cat became extremely unwell just prior to our trip away and although she was stable enough to leave she needed someone to keep an eye on her. Clare accepted the booking and was absolutely brilliant. She kept us up to date about Cali with photos and messages which helped us feel reassured. We returned home to find that a complete record of medication and voiding etc had been made which is so helpful when managing chronic health issues in an animal. Clare also left us milk, bread and even some flowers and wine to welcome us home. She had washed the bedsheets and left the house tidier than it was when we left for our trip! I am so impressed with the level of care provided to our baby and also the respect that Clare showed our home..I would not hesitate to use her services again.”
“Eleanor was absolutly amazing with our kitty while we were away, she spent loads of time with her making sure she was well looked after and happy, and went above and beyond when she needed to go to the emergancy vet, calling the vet for updates and keeping us informed all day, it took so much stress away, I cannot rate her high enough.”

About: I am a dependable and caring cat sitter with lifelong experience, having grown up with family cats since the age of six. I have looked after cats for family and friends and genuinely love understanding each cat’s unique personality and routine. From feeding and litter care to playtime and calm companionship, I make sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away.
“Would highly recommend Ella. Kept us updated and reassured our precious Siamese was stress free and in good hands. Ella was professional and prompt with timings. Overall a very good experience. Will certainly be using Ella again.”
“This was our first time using this sort of service. Kerry was friendly, helpful & reliable! She kept us updated whilst we were away and we came home to a happy and settled cat. Thanks so much! Would definitely book again! ”
About: I’ve had a love of cats since I was a little girl and my grandparents had a Tom cat called Tompuss. He was big and gentle. My parents also helped to look after the neighbours cats as well-which encouraged my love of cats as well. Due to owning a dog now, we have decided not to have cats of our own. However, my business means that I can offer my love and attention to other owners cats instead. Popping in, giving them fuss and playing with them, along with providing food and drink for them, and refreshing litter trays.
About: Long walks, hill walks, running (to be honest, it’s more jogging 😂), sitting in cafes; whatever your furry friend prefers let me know and I’ll come up with a plan! After 20 years in an office, I’ve broken free and am available during the day and some evenings. I’m in the lucky position of being pretty flexible! We have a 3 story family home, which we share with our Cavapoo, Rocket. Your dog, like ours, has free run of the house and small fenced garden. I will be solely responsible for the dogs, however my family will be around. My daughter is the animal whisperer, but my wife and son love being along for the ride.

“Couldn’t recommend Eve highly enough - she just gets dogs! Our boy Comet can be a little unsure with new people but he took to her instantly and chose to sit at her feet.

The photos she sends are wonderful, and it is great seeing him so happy and well cared for. I am really glad I chose Jessica.

I would not choose anyone else now.”

I also have a dog flap so there always free to go outside as much as they like. *If I am out for any reason my bestie who is a dog boarder & walker can pop by. She also lives down the road from me which is a plus. So be rest assured that your fur baby will be well looked after. I have a fenced in garden, and a two story house so there is enough space (my German Shepard was very comfortable here and didn’t have any issues). You tell me how many treats your pet can have and I’ll provide the cuddles and playtimes. * Jenny also has a fenced garden. She has a 4 bedroom 2 story new build which is stunning.
About: When you’re away, your dog deserves to feel safe, settled and understood. That is the environment I aim to create — a calm, steady home where care is personal, structured and consistent. I offer structured, home-based care for dogs who need more than just supervision. With 12 years of hands-on experience in boarding, day care, dog walking and grooming, I understand how to create balance — enrichment without overstimulation, affection with clear boundaries. I intentionally keep numbers small so each dog receives proper supervision, individual attention and thoughtful emotional awareness. No cages. No overcrowding. No rushed handling. Just a calm, structured home where dogs can soften, settle and feel secure. I work particularly well with: • Larger breeds • Sensitive or anxious temperaments • Dogs who benefit from calm, steady handling This is not a high-traffic boarding setup. It is a secure, professionally managed home environment where dogs can relax and regulate naturally. Pet care is part of my daily structure, not something I fit around other commitments. Boarding dogs are rarely left alone and follow a consistent home routine. My day is organised around walks, enrichment, rest and supervision, ensuring each dog receives steady attention throughout their stay. Drop-off and collection times are arranged in advance to maintain a calm, predictable rhythm for all dogs in my care. I believe: • Dogs mirror the energy around them • Calm environments encourage calm behaviour • Overstimulation creates stress • Stability builds trust For that reason, I don’t run a loud or high-traffic setup. I maintain a steady, balanced rhythm where dogs can settle naturally and feel secure. This is home-style care — managed professionally. • Fully licensed home boarding • Pet First Aid trained • Secure, family home environment • Structured daily routine • Enrichment-based care • No forceful handling • Regular photo updates Dogs are managed thoughtfully — never rushed, never crowded.
“Katie has walked jet twice now and both times have been last minute which has been incredibly helpful. I would highly recommend Katie - she is friendly punctual and provides a good overview of your dogs walk. I will definitely be using Katie again in the future.”

About: I have been a dog owner for 14 years. I used to be mom to a boxer and a lab/collie mix, but sadly lost them both recently due to illness and age. (They were both 12/13 years old). I was also mom to a blind Lhasa Apso, who considering she couldn’t see-certainly had a personality to make up for it. Sadly she passed due to illness and age recently as well. I have recently become mom to a miniature dachshund called Parker. All of my pets have taught me things about dogs and how each one needs to be loved differently, due to their personalities. I’m here to provide care to your pets, when they need it. I currently work from home-so have plenty of time to care for your pets, and provide the attention that they need. Be it a walk a day and being returned home after, or receiving care at my own home for the day. I am flexible and here for your pet. I always carry a spare lead with me-in case there are any issues on walks. For care in my own home-I have a secure garden, and have room to crate if that is what your pet is used to and comfortable with.
“Amanda is really amazing with our 2 dogs and they are always delighted to see her! She’s really reliable and very easy to communicate with. She takes the dogs on a good walk, allowing them time to sniff and snuggle, which they love! We will absolutely book her again and encourage anyone to do the same!”

About: I have had experience of dogs since age 8 when my parents had 2 golden retrievers. There has only been a period of around 10 years in my life where I have not lived with dogs. I have bred rottweilers and German shepherds. I am a house husband so apart from nipping the shops, I am at home 95% of the time. We live in a rural area and within a 5 minute walk there is access to fields, woods and walks right by the wrekin. My whole life is pet care at the moment, I love it We have a good sized enclosed garden with dog flap doors which lead to the garden. I am a house husband and am at home 95% of the time. I take my dogs out for 3 to 4 walks a day starting very early in the morning. Our dogs are very playful and freindly with other dogs. I have had many a relatives dog stay over whilst they are away so I am very used to looking after multiple dogs. I have raised a few litters of pups, the last litter 12/2025.
“I was quite anxious leaving Elsa for the Easter weekend, but Sheila put me at ease from the very first meet-and-greet. Throughout Elsa’s stay, we received frequent updates and pictures that reassured me. Elsa clearly had a wonderful time, and I would absolutely trust Sheila again without hesitation. Thanks so much for looking after my baby so well ❤️”

About: I love spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes! I've grown up with labradors and cocker spaniels, so I'm used to sociable, high-energy dogs. I've studied animal behaviour and cognition so I actively research and apply this theory when handling new dogs. I'm comfortable working with rescue dogs, and happy to take it slow with seniors who'd prefer a relaxed visit. I'm out walking my dog whatever the weather, and I have flexible working hours so I'm happy visit your dog(s) during the day and take them on some lovely long walks! My house has enough space for small or large dogs, and I have an enclosed garden they can enjoy. My spaniel, Cleo, will be around to help your dog feel comfortable. 🐶 I'm out walking whatever the weather! My job is flexible, and I tend to have time in the afternoons, so I am available to help out during the day for walks or home visits. My dog gets treated like royalty and yours will too! I'll respond to their personality and work with you to meet their specific needs while they're with me.
“Lemmy had the best time with Nicola and her family (including Boris) we know that we can go away and not worry about him whilst we are on holiday . He absolutely loves going to stay with them and will definitely use Nicola again x”
“Cato had a great time staying with Yin; he had playtime, walks and cuddles and came back lovely and clean as we’d also booked a groom while he was with her - a really convenient service to use! We were kept up to date with photos, videos and a summary of what he’d been up to so we could see he was being looked after with love and care.”
“First time leaving Jessie and Buddy with a sitter, they loved it! Emma was friendly and reassuring, we met up a few days before and she explained everything. We were kept up to date with regular messages and pics. Emma was brilliant with them and we will certainly leave our babies with her in future.”
“Aimee is such a thoughtful sitter for my fur baby. Once again I had reassurance and updates about how Loki was getting on. Thanks Aimee for making Loki part of your family for his brief stay. I was able to have a fantastic, stress free weekend knowing that Loki is well looked after in your care xx Jane”
“Kelly was absolutely fantastic with my dog. Milo is usually quite nervous of strangers but Kelly did everything to make me and him comfortable, we did a meet and greet walk and then we visited her house. Whilst Milo was there Kelly sent me regular updates on how he was doing which was great. This was definitely a home from home experience and I would 100% use Kelly again in the future.”
“Fantastic Dog Sitter really really easy to get along with communication was 10 out of 10 and got a really great vibe. Will 100% be bringing Albie back again in the future as they seem to get on great. The photo was a really nice touch. You might say quite high-quality too LOL. Great to have such an easy option. This close to New Year’s Eve would highly recommend. Thanks again from Michael and Albie.”
