“Sarah got on very well with my young dog, Ivor. She entertained him with fun and play in the garden and house. When I met her for a meet and greet she seems very knowledgeable and caring and she kept Ivor safe on the walk by letting him interact appropriately with other dogs and not becoming too boisterous!”
About: I believe every dog is unique, and I love getting to know their individual personalities, preferences, and what makes them happiest. I have extensive experience working with small and large dogs, and I’ve also owned a very large dog who sadly passed away last year. My bond with her taught me the importance of understanding and meeting a dog’s emotional and physical needs, and I bring that same thoughtful, personalised care to all the pets I look after. Whether your dog is energetic or more laid-back, I am committed to meeting their specific needs. As an athlete by profession, I’m fully equipped to care for and exercise even the most active dogs. At the same time, I’m patient and take a calm, nurturing approach with less active or older dogs. I will ensure that your dog gets the right balance of exercise, mental stimulation, rest, and love. I understand how important it is to cater to dogs with special needs, whether they have anxiety, nervousness, or behavioral quirks. I use a calm, patient approach to help these dogs feel safe, relaxed, and secure while they’re in my care. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions you have to ensure your dog’s well-being. I’m committed to making sure your dog feels at ease, happy, and well cared for while you're away. With my experience, passion for animals, and dedication to providing quality care, I’m confident I can offer your dog the best possible experience. My work as an athlete doesn’t fall under the same schedule as a normal job. When I work I am usually overseas, and come home for 'rest periods’, so when I am home I am free all day everyday! I am available for what your pet care needs are. My ability to fully dedicate my time when I'm home makes me an ideal sitter for those who want someone with a lot of availability and commitment. I am very open to what your dog’s needs are, and will meet them with ease and kindness. My approach is calm, warm, and loving. I have a spacious house with a fenced garden, and a dog field, fenced and safe behind my house. I can wash, train, walk, do off lead training, feed, crate train, puppy train, the list goes on!
“Kieron is friendly and efficient. He has several dogs himself and seems knowledgeable. He and his girlfriend visited my young dog Ivor and they all had a good time playing with toys in the garden and it kept my dog company. They followed instructions and Ivor seemed to have enjoyed himself with them.”
“Ezra looked after our 4 dogs for an evening, in our Air BnB, whilst we were on holiday in the area. We have 3 collies, one a ‘sensitive’ rescue, and a lurcher - all of them were very fond of Ezra, which immediately put our mind at rest when it came to leaving them. They were well cared for and Ezra let us know how they’d all got on as well as sharing some wonderful photos on the app! We would definitely ask Ezra to look after our dogs again if we come back on holiday.”
“Yuxi went above and beyond to care for peanut, keeping me updated and asking questions along the way, would book again”

I’m available majority of the days and times. I currently won’t be accepting dogs into my home as I have two cats and I am not sure how they will react. I would happily come and visit them at home.
About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my personalised, attentive approach and genuine love for animals. I take the time to understand each dog’s unique needs, routines, and personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. With a focus on providing consistent communication and updates, I give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in reliable, caring hands. Plus, my experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments means I'm prepared for any situation—your furry family member will be treated with the same love and respect they receive at home. As I work from home, I like to keep active throughout the day and evening. I am flexible in my day to day activities, so I can make arrangements with ease for your furry friend! When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, my approach combines consistency, comfort, and personalised attention to make each pet feel safe and loved. I closely follow your pet’s daily routine, from feeding schedules to exercise and playtime, to ensure minimal disruption to their day-to-day life. For dogs, this means enjoyable walks, engaging play, and plenty of affection, while for cats and other pets, I prioritize their comfort and unique needs—whether that’s maintaining a cozy environment, offering mental stimulation, or providing gentle handling. I also keep the space clean, respect your home, and offer regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to provide a seamless, stress-free experience for both you and your pets.

So I have lots of spare time to look after and care for your dogs Providing a calm Environment to your dogs weather it’s in your home or in the public.

About: I had rescue dogs with my family when I was a child and we brought them back from Nepal. One of them was quite grumpy and nervous as he'd been poorly treated so I learnt how to deal with him. I love dogs and cats and would love the opportunity to help when I can. I've also looked after a friend's dog for the weekend and helped out another friend with dog walks. I work remotely and would be able to visit homes and check in on dogs or walk them in my local neighbourhood. I could do lunch times, evenings or weekends. Please give me a few days notice and I always like to meet them first. I don't have a car so would just go for walks locally or jump on a bus. I probably wouldn't have any dogs to stay at the moment. If you live locally, I can visit your furry friends for cuddles, playing and feeding/treats.
About: I have three dogs currently living with family who I have been with us for over 10 years, I have experience with lots of animals from my time spent in agriculture college. I worked at a kennel and cattery for a year before moving onto my studies. I am currently a student who can be very flexible in terms of scheduling. My busier days tend to be Wednesday, Thursday and Friday but weekends and early week I am very much available I know that no two dogs are the same, I have lots of patience when it comes to temperament, if you feel that I am a good fit I'll make sure we have a good discussion about their needs. I have a dog that is a known escape artist as well as being very reactive to other dogs so I'm experienced with making sure a house is safe and secure and how to handle interactions with other dogs.
About: I have had many animals in my life since I was very small and I have also walked and looked after friends and family pets My previous dog was a rescue and in her senior years had many health problems. I have a vast amount of experience in elderly canine care and, also experience of owing a nervous dog. I do miss her a lot. Now, I do have a bouncy lively girl pup, 22 months old , and she keeps me busy. I currently work part time, but would rather have animals around me, so I am hoping this opportunity will allow me to make a change. I have an enclosed garden and have no restrictions in my house, unless any were required and I would be happy to provide daily updates
