“Molly provided me with constant updates on my senior cat who has a few health care issues whilst I was away. She had no issues providing my cat vitamins orally through a syringe which sometimes even I struggle with! She replies quick and I arrived home to a very happy cat and tidy home after a few days away :)”


2. Nick M.
“Nick & his family are great with dogs. My collie loves them all. They have looked after my dog several times; for up to a week or more. She is always very happy to see them. I have total confidence in their ability to care for my dog and would totally recommend Nick & his family to dog sit.”


3. Jazmin C.
“Jazmin used to regularly walk my Dalmatian. She was always on time and would sent me updates for my own peace of mind. She would be a credit to any owner who may choose to place their dog in her care. I very much hope to use her again.”

5. Molly O.
About: Ive taken care of various different animals over the years beginning when I was 8 with my very first pet. Ive taken care of different breeds of dogs ranging from woldhounds all the way down to dachshunds. My garden is very large with a field just round the back of the house. Currently there are other caged pets in and outside my house such as birds, a rabbit & a Lizard. I currently work a zero-hour contract so I decide when I would like to work so I will have plenty of time to play and entertain your pups. My garden is fenced in and all pets that live in the house have a designated area either outdoors or in a room where your pet cannot get a hold of them. For car journeys I have designated safety features for every size dog. Bigger dogs will usually either go in the crates or be harnessed to the seats. The dogs will NEVER be allowed in my vehicle without some sort fo safety feature.

“Sophie has taken care of our dog Azkar plenty of times. He is really happy with her and im completely at easy leaving him with Sophie. I know Azkar was treated as one of the family. Will not hesitate to leave my furry friend with Sophie again.”


7. Freya S.
About: I've had pets since I was small and always give them all equal care and attention. As an experienced pet, equine and livestock owner I look after all animals with the same care and attention that I give my own. I am good at sticking to a routine for any pets that may need structure, I am also flexible with my days and making sure that all animals are happy and healthy. I have a young, well behaved and crate trained cocker spaniel. I also love to make sure that your home is left in a tidy if not better condition to how it was left.


8. Liz W.
“Liz looked after 2 of my pooches both walking and day care for many years , both mine loved going to her and I can highly recommend Liz , she is very trustworthy and very knowledgeable about dogs.”




9. Chris C.
“Chris has looked after my chihuahua Sausage many times over the last few years. I commute regularly to Exeter for work so I drop Sausage at Chris’s house. I know he gets lots of love, care and attention and he also loves having the opportunity to play with Chris’s dogs. Chris has also looked after Sausage twice while I have been on holiday and she is always my first port of call if I ever need dog care!”


10. Emma D.
“Emma and her partner, Mike, have looked after our dog, Jerry, on numerous occasions, in our home and in their own home. Anything from an overnight to a full week. Jerry loves Emma and Emma loves Jerry. When they have stayed in our home they have left everything clean and tidy and Jerry has enjoyed trips out with them and the best love and attention. I would recommend Emma as a dog walker or pet sitter with no hesitation. She’s great.”


11. Kaitlin W.

“Really lovely and Ted enjoyed his walk. Looked after him so well. Would ask her to walk Ted again.”


12. Aidan K.
About: Always had dogs in our family, moved out 10 years ago and had my own dog, but after relationship breakdown I no longer have the dog and miss the companionship and caring for a dog, but can’t have my own again at the moment. I only work 3 days a week in the weekend, so have plenty of time for cuddles, walks and play time. Have plenty of green space and fields within a 5 minute walk too I have a metal fenced garden, plenty of indoor space too and dog friendly fields within a 5 minute walk. Secure building away from the main road


13. Deanne R.

“Excellent, arrived bang on time. Great interaction with Elsa, very professional & extremely competent. Would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Deanne, many thanks- great job🐶”


14. Keira S.
“Keira is very professional and has looked after my two Rottweilers when I have been away as well as walking them when my ankle was in plaster. I would recommend her services to any dog owner, either for her to look after their dog in their home or just take them for a walk. She is caring, trustworthy, reliable, responsible and very loving to animals.”


15. Charrisse M.
About: Want someone to love and look after your pet as much as you do? Then you’ve found the right person! I love animals. I’ve been around them since I was born. I grew up with with bulldogs and a Great Dane as well as border collies and terrier ,bassets ,daschunds ,pugs ,shar pei’s and schauzers. I recently house and dog sat for a German shepherd and French bulldog taking them out 6-10 times a day as well as keeping the house tidy of course. I’m happy to drop in and take your pet out for as long as you need usually minimum of an hour walks. I am happy to help you with your pet any way I can. I hope this encourages you to choose me to look after your fur baby.


16. Paula A.
About: Home isn’t a home without a loved fur baby. I have had cats and dogs all my life and they bring such fulfilment to life. However, what’s better is to bring love and companionship to them. I throughly enjoy quality time with animals and when I holiday I would want my fur babies to have the love and care that I can offer yours. I currently work 2 days a week for a retail company and therefore have lots of time to spend with and care for your fur babies. I have a very large grassed enclosed garden for your dog to run and explore. I live off a beach which offers lovely walks and other dog interaction if you are happy with that. Your dog will be in a home from home, having cuddles on the sofa. However, I am also happy to crate if you desire and it is what your pet is used to.


17. Natalia B.

“Sunny loved his walk with Natalia, she was amazing with him. We will definitely be regulars ☺️”


18. Ellie D.
About: I’ve house sat since I was 18 years old, from sheep to chickens, dogs, cats and horses; I’m very used to caring for all animals and their individual needs. I have a flexible working pattern so I am available to give your pets all the attention and care they require whilst you are away from home I care for the pets in my care as wished by the pet owner so that the pet can remain as happy and settled as possible.


19. Cara C.
“Cara has been an amazing pet sitter and Walker for my furry friends! She is incredibly responsible, caring and attentive to their needs. She has cared for both my cats and dogs, and I always feel at ease knowing they are in her capable hands. She is always on time for walks and feeding times, and she ensures that they get the exercise and attention that they need. She also sends me updates and pictures while I’m away, which gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend Cara to anyone looking for a pet sitter or walker. She is trustworthy, reliable and truly cares for animals.”


20. Lydia H.
“Lydia has a very calm and caring nature with dogs. Thrives on ensuring they get the best attention, love and fun. With so many safe and sensible walks on her doorstep, you know that they are in safe hands and will have a tonne of fun and exercise if they need it. Would highly recommend Lydia through my own experience that she tailors her care for any dog, always safe in her hands and she is one of a very small minority of people I trust to care for my pet when I need it.”
