“I'm so happy we booked Kirsti! She gave us such peace of mind looking after our cats while we were away. I really appreciated the timeous detailed reports and photos, and her calm and unflappable communication. I would highly recommend Kirsti, and I'm planning on approaching her in future again, as she is so considerate and trustworthy. Thank you Kirsti!”


“Deniz has been an absolute star with Enki (our cat). He’s normally a little shy around new people but took to Deniz instantly. She provided lots of update and pictures. I couldn’t recommend her more.”


“Katie was a lovely sitter for our two young cats. They are both quite nervous and she took lots of time, patience and gentle persuasion to gain their trust! The regular photos and updates she sent were fantastic and really helped to reassure us while we were away. Would highly recommend!😍”

I currently study half the year doing interior architecture, and the other half I work part time at a pub.

About: I have had dogs in my life for over 30 years. I am experienced in their welfare as well as being a massive animal lover. I currently work 3/4 days a week and am self-employed. This means that I have plenty of time to look after your precious furry friends. I'm a hairdresser and so if your pet would be happy and settled in my salon, I could easily take him/her to work with me too. If not, I would schedule my work so that I can pop home regularly. I am a 5 minute walk away. I have a secure garden and safe home. I have lots of toys too. I'm good at following any instructions which work for your pets.

About: Hi, I’m Max. A university student in living in Oxford and a lifelong dog lover. I grew up caring for my own energetic rescue shepherd-hound mix, Dobby, who has epilepsy. That means I have hands-on experience with administering medication, monitoring health, and keeping a calm, positive environment for pets of all temperaments. I am confident with all dogs, no matter the size, age or personalities, whether they're a nervous rescue like my own where they can be shy, or a senior dog who needs gentle care. I will adapt my behaviour towards your dog's needs so they feel loved. Why Book Me? My experience caring for my own dog with epilepsy means I’m fully comfortable administering medication and keeping a close eye on their wellbeing. I work around a flexible part time job, so I can be there for your dogs when you need me the most, including evenings and the weekends. When booking me, you can expect regular photos and text updates so that you can ensure that your dog is safe and feel reassured that your dog will be cared for as if it was my own. Services I Offer: Most importantly - Cuddles Dog walking - short or long routes - completely your choice Drop in visits - feeding, playing, toilet break, medication House sitting I am currently working part-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the week including the weekends for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. Whether it's early mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I can usually work around your pet’s schedule. I am very active so long walks also fit my lifestyle as well as your dogs. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages. I care for Dobby with a routine built around his needs which are regular meals, long daily walks, lots of grooming (he sheds ALOT!), and plenty of playtime to keep him mentally and physically fit. As he suffers from epilepsy, I am actively looking for signs for an episode, making me very observant to your dog.

About: I have taken care of my two family dogs since they were puppies, helping train them and then giving them the love and attention they have needed throughout their lives. I have also helped look after friends’ dogs, some of whom have been elderly and have needed a bit more TLC. I love taking my dogs on long walks in the countryside and spending quality time playing with them at home. I’m at home most of the summer so am free both weekdays and weekends to look after your lovely pets. I can do anytime throughout the day. I have one small friendly dog who is great with other dogs. I live in a house with a fenced garden with lots of space for your dog to run around and play.

About: I've been caring for pets since I was young, and it's something I've always loved. My family has a golden retriever, and I've been actively involved in her care, taking her to training classes, feeding her, brushing her coat, and giving her lots of affection. I'm experienced, reliable, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’ve just completed a foundation course at drama school, which means I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. Since I absolutely love animals, I can’t think of a better way to spend my days than looking after them and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I always make sure to communicate clearly with you about your home environment, asking about any safety concerns or restrictions, like areas where your dog may or may not be allowed. While I’m currently unable to host dogs in my own home, I’m fully committed to providing a caring and respectful experience in your space, ensuring your pet feels secure and well looked after.

About: I have experience caring for my own dog and helping family and friends with theirs. I always prioritize the dogs and make sure they are well cared for. I work full-time Monday to Friday and occasionally do overtime on weekends. However, I’m flexible and can offer pet care before work during the week. On weekends, I’m usually available after 3 PM if I’m working, or earlier if I’m off. I’m always happy to work around your schedule to ensure your pet gets the care and attention they need. Safety, Trust & Environment I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own. Whether I’m walking a dog or caring for a pet in their home, I always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow any routines or instructions closely, keep the environment calm and secure, and make sure pets feel loved and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve always been a dog lover. However growing up our house wasn’t large enough to have a dog of our own, we had cousins who had dogs and every summer we would end up looking after their dogs when they went away. I ended up having a dog for the last 5 years and sadly it passed away before Christmas. Now I’m looking forward to helping others and getting to spend time with dogs again. I have just got back from interrailing so am quite flexible while job hunting. I was used to waking up early for walks but am free all daytime now to do so. I seem to get on with all dogs and have been called part dog because of this. Currently making this profile while looking after a playful spaniel for the day. References available

Leah H.
“I have known Leah for 15+ years. Throughout her life she has always had a huge interest in animals and has been naturally great at caring for them and interacting with them. She seems to have a special way with animals which means that they quickly trust her and just love her, and she aways gives a huge amount of love back. She has grown up surrounded by a range of different animals/pets (in particular; dogs, cats, rats and rabbits) but has also enjoyed so many other close encounters with others throughout her young life including horses, goats, birds, reptiles, etc. She never tires of meeting new little friends and enjoying getting to know them and always seems to know just what to do around different creatures. Leah will make an incredible pet caregiver. She is loving, caring, intuitive and responsible, and will have lots of fun whilst she looks after your special little creature(s). I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her and I would trust her implicitly to do a fantastic job when you need her.”

James H.
“James Hayes is my nephew and have known him all of his life. James absolutely adores dogs and he has often looked after our Hungarian Vizsla on numerous occasions as well as my sisters dogs from time to time. James loves to engage and play with the dogs he comes into contact with, but James is aware of the boundaries that dogs have to ensure they are comfortable and safe. We have had James to dog sit our Visla when we have been on holiday so was entrusted with walking, feeding and keeping the dog safe and secure. Oggy (Our Doggie) gets so excited when he sees James as he knows he will be the centre of James' attention!”
