Pet Sitting in Weymouth

“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.”

About: I have always grown up around dogs, having mostly had golden retrievers and a very big Estrella Mountain dog when I was alot younger! have recently just left my role working as a client care assistant at the Medivet 24hr Vet Hospital in Dorchester, where I acquired alot of knowledge relating to pets and their wellbeing - knowing what to look out for emergencies etc. I have also volunteered at the Margaret Green Rescue centre. I just love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I have currently left my role at a vet practice to care for my Grandad. I am really going to miss being surrounded by 4 legged friends so am pretty flexible over the next few months. Another passion of mine is travel so I do have a few trips but open to discussing availability Having 2 goldens, I know how much our fur babies love the attention! If you’re worried about leaving them then do not fear, I am on hand for lots of cuddles and love. Having lived in Dorset my whole life, I know the best spots of beautiful walks (also remote places away from others if reactive)

About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life, including growing up with my own dog where I helped with daily care, walks, and basic training. More recently, I regularly look after and walk my nan’s dog, making sure she’s exercised and well cared for. I’ve also helped neighbours, friends, and family with dog sitting, walking, and general care, so I’m comfortable with different breeds and personalities. Whether it’s a relaxed walk or a more active one, I’m happy to adapt to what each dog needs. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and always make sure dogs feel safe, happy, and properly looked after. I work full-time in the fire service, so I’m reliable and used to responsibility, but I still have good availability for dog walking and pet care. I’m available most evenings during the week and more flexible on weekends. I’m happy to offer walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on availability. I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment for every dog in my care. I live in a first-floor flat, and any dogs staying with me will never be left alone, with full-time supervision and regular toilet breaks, attention, and a comfortable space to relax. Dogs in my care will get at least two walks a day, usually around an hour, with everything tailored to suit them. Whether they’re young or older, prefer shorter or longer walks, enjoy the beach or quieter routes, or need to be on or off the lead, I always adapt to their needs and your instructions. I’m happy to provide GPS tracking of walks where possible, along with regular photo updates, so you can see exactly where your dog has been and have full peace of mind while they’re with me.

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, chickens, fish, and hamsters. I’m reliable, love animals, and will make sure your pets are well cared for and exercised I’m flexible and able to fit pet care around my daily routine. I’m happy to spend quality time with your pets, including feeding, playing, walks, and giving them attention and company. I will always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in your home. I’m responsible, trustworthy, and will follow any routines or instructions carefully.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, I used to show dogs and groom them. I've shown at acrafts. I currently have a senior springer spaniel. I recently lost my working cocker to old age who I trained and was a beautiful doggy. I love dogs and could never imagine life without one. I would take excellent care of your special furry friend. I work as a carer mon-wed and can dog sit Thursday, Friday Saturday and Sundays. I am home all day on my days off. I could never imagine life without a dog they really are a special friend and family member. If you are down on holiday and want to do an activity with the family but you have your dog, don't miss out just book your furry friend in with me. I have a high walled court yard, I have a senior dog, he loves new friends, He loves to walk on the beach or in the local parks. We have some beautiful areas to walk here.

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.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12. I live near a forest and available daily for dog walks. I have been on rover over a year and have a good rapport with all types of dogs. Have good reviews, I’m very chilled and relaxed and will look after your dog with the upmost respect and follow instructions. I work from home and have lots of free time to sit and walk. I have years of experience looking after dogs both small and large. I give good control and am very relaxed. I have a safe and secure flat l There lots of lovely walks nearby and will focus all my time on your pet. Only available for dog sitting and walks atm. My calendar says I’m not available on Thursday as that’s my office work day. Though I can change this or take the day off if notice given :)

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!

“Jasmine took care to get to know my dog Ivor. She seems knowledgeable about training young dogs and was caring to him. She tried hard to do different activities on his drop in visit and gave a thorough report after. Ivor seemed happy when I returned from an evening out.”

“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.”

About: I have lots of experience with dogs - my own pets, and my family and friends pets. I love all dogs no matter their breed or behaviours.

About: I have grown up around animals, having dogs for most of that time. I moved over from South Africa in 2020, bringing my wife, Savannah (who will occasionally join on the walks) and more importantly, two rescues with us. Our family has grown to include two Romanian rescues. One foster that ended up being an adoptee and the other is a fostered while he learns to be around people and adjusts to a new way of life before he moves onto his forever home (unless he just ends up staying forever). I understand the complexities of walking with dogs that don't come from traditional local backgrounds and require a different style of walk to make them feel safe and comfortable while out and about. I am always happy to adjust the walk to match the dog from a nice chilled walk around the block for the golden oldies to a brisk, enrichment-filled walk for the younger, more energetic hounds. Currently, I am taking an online dog first aid course and working my way through a Reactive Dog Training course, designed primarily for Romans but suitable for all dogs. With long-term plans on becoming a dog behaviourist to try help more people with anxious dogs. I currently work full-time with a 4-on-4 schedule for the ambulance service, so I will be marking my availability around those shifts. Some of those work days, I may have availability in the afternoons or late evenings in the summer. I have medical experience not only with the two-legged species but also with four-legged ones. Coming from a conservation background in South Africa has helped with this. I am a strong believer in force-free training and focus on rewarding good behaviour, which I find works amazingly with my four rescues who come with an unknown history and get very nervous around people. Out on walks, I try to utilise scent work and other forms of enrichment to make the walk more enjoyable and enriching for the dogs not only working the body but the brain.
