House Sitting Wiltshire

“Deborah was really attentive and understanding with our dog Maya. She had great knowledge of nervous dogs and made us feel at ease that she knew exactly how to care for Maya. I’d love to have her watch Maya again anytime!”

“Cymon was a star. The dogs loved him. The videos showed happy relaxed dogs with wagging tails. I would have no hesitation having Cymon back or recommending him. Thanks Cymon”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. From the moment I met Holly, I felt completely at ease leaving my dogs in her care. Holly was incredibly attentive, kind, and clearly have a genuine love for animals. My dogs were not only well looked after, but truly happy and relaxed when I returned—which says everything. I really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and little notes about how things were going. It made such a difference knowing they were in safe, caring hands. Holly went above and beyond to keep routines consistent and make sure my dogs felt comfortable and loved. I would wholeheartedly recommend Holly to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. I’ll definitely be booking Holly again!”

About: Hi I’m Kit! A friendly and reliable sitter who will take the best care of your pets. I am available for dog walking, pop in visits and short overnight pet sits - but please don’t hesitate to message me with any enquiries! I have always had dogs in my life, I grew up with 6 Afghan Hounds, and now have a mischievous Border Collie/Retriever mix of my own, Wes. I have had Wes from a puppy and loved every second of it! From walking him everyday to teaching him tricks, I’m very capable looking after high energy dogs at every age. I understand not every animal is energetic, so if you have a more senior pet who enjoys a slower pace of life, I am happy to cater to their needs too! As a dog parent myself, I understand you want complete peace of mind with your dog sitter. I will send regular updates and assist pets needs however you need me to! I work from home Monday to Friday so am relatively flexible with walks, pop ins and sits that are local to me. During my visits, I am happy to play lots of games to keep them stimulated and entertained. For walks I can take your dog on local familiar routes or on long explorations! Additionally I can make sure wind down time is fully appreciated with time in the sofa! I will always keep you posted during my visits with your pets. Please let me know about any special requirements that your pets may have so I can cater to their specific needs and provide the best care possible. I would also be grateful if you could share any behaviours like how they are on walks around other dogs and people and so on.

“Victoria has been great. I felt very comfortable leaving Lilka in her capable hands. She gave me updates and pictures and left the house perfect. Many thanks Victoria ?”

“Beth was great again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter/carer. No hassle, very easy and pets well cared for (massively indulged I think). Thanks Beth.”

About: Hi, I’m Elsie! I’m a huge animal lover with over two years of experience working as a receptionist in a busy veterinary practice. My role gave me a great understanding of pet health, behaviour and the importance of keeping animals calm, comfortable and well cared for and completed many courses to help develop my knowledge in these areas of animal care. It also confirmed that I wanted animals to remain a big part of my life! I have three pets of my own who mean the world to me, so I completely understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family member! I’ll always treat your pet with the same love, patience and attention that I give my own. I now work remotely, which gives me plenty of flexibility and means pets receive lots of company throughout the day rather than being left alone. I can help with dog walking, drop in visits, daycare or overnight care, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. During visits I can provide feeding, fresh water, toilet breaks, playtime, walks, plenty of fuss and regular photo updates, so you’ll always know how they’re getting on. Dog walks can be tailored to your pet’s age, energy levels and routine, whether they prefer a gentle 30 minute stroll or a longer adventure. Every pet has a different personality, and I’m happy to adapt my approach to suit them, whether they’re energetic, shy, senior or just need a little extra reassurance. Thanks to my veterinary background, I’m also confident recognising if something doesn’t seem quite right and would contact you immediately while seeking veterinary advice if needed. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and provide them with a safe, caring and happy home away from home. I work remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my day. One of the things I missed most after leaving my role at a veterinary practice was being around animals, so pet sitting is the perfect way for me to continue doing something I genuinely love. Because I work from home, I can provide lots of companionship, regular toilet breaks, playtime, walks and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and can be flexible with drop off, pick up and visit times where possible. Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priority. Having worked in a veterinary practice for over two years, I’m confident recognising when something isn’t quite right and know how important it is to stay calm and communicate with owners. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule and any instructions carefully. I live in a clean, calm home and will make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.

“Monika was fantastic with my little dachshund. He isn’t the easiest dog to care for but felt very confident leaving him with her She was tidy and respectful of the house I would have no problem asking her to come again”

“Very happy with how Emily took care of my dog and also very happy as she did a meet and greet with lolina Before she agreed to the booking She also kept me updated and sent pictures . Would definitely recommend and would definitely book with her again .”

“Madison was fantastic! She kindly agreed to look after my dog, River, on fairly short notice and stayed at my house while I was away. River had such a great time with her – it was clear she was well cared for and given lots of attention. She also left my home lovely and clean and well looked after, which was such a thoughtful touch to come back to. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I’d be happy to book with her again!”

About: We have been exchanging our home for over 20 years for holidays including caring for exchange partners pets. In addition we have also been pet sitting a wide variety of animals for many years. We have had various animals of our own too. Our elderly cat has recently passed away - we are experienced with elderly pet care including giving medication. Steve is retired and has plenty of time to walk and play with your animal during the day. Sarah is working full time but is flexible and would work from your house - she will typically do the early morning feed, let out and walk and after work. Because we live in your house your pet’s routine and surroundings never need to change - we adapt our routine to theirs. We find this means your pet is far more accepting of your absence and of our presence!

“Carol was an excellent sitter. From our first interaction, Carol came across very easy going and very accommodating to meet all of our needs. She did a great job looking after, keeping us updated. Dogs had plenty of walks, despite one of ours being very over excitable and pulling on the lead still being a work in progress! We came back to a very clean and tidy home and two happy doggies. We would definitely recommend Carol. Thank you 😊”

About: Hi, I’m Jasmine — a genuine animal lover with a lifetime of experience caring for all kinds of animals, from small pets to large dogs. I’ve had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, rats, fish (including koi!) and even a bearded dragon called George. 🐾 I spent 4 years working at a local animal shelter in a fundraising role, where we received introductory behavioural training for both cats and dogs. I’ve also learnt a huge amount through caring for our own rescue animals, including experience with dog and human-reactive dogs and dogs of all sizes, including bully breeds. I support entirely fear-free, positive reinforcement methods and aim to make every animal feel safe, comfortable and cared for. I’m mainly looking to spend more time around animals and hopefully make life a little easier for their owners too — whether that’s a walk, drop-in visit, sitting or a home-from-home stay. I work from home in an office-based role, which means your pet can enjoy the company and comfort of a calm home environment rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m able to provide a relaxed, homely setting where your companion can settle into their usual routine, with plenty of attention, company and care around my working hours. Walks, playtime and any additional care can be built around their individual routine and needs. Your pet’s wellbeing is always my priority, and I’ll follow your guidance on their routines, preferences, likes and dislikes to make their stay as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’m also happy to keep you updated while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re comfortable, settled and being well cared for. At weekends, I’m able to offer even more flexibility and time for walks, adventures, enrichment and one-to-one attention. My aim is to make their time away from you feel as much like home as possible — with care tailored to the individual companion rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. I’m there to look after your pets in which ever way you advise me too - I practice fear free care for animals, a firm believer in positive reinforcement & meeting an animals individual needs. If I’ll be boarding your animal, my garden is fully enclosed & I have a comfortable house with room for a crate or other items for your animal. I do have guinea pigs at home who are behind a locked door & stair gate but please let me know if your animal has a particular interest in small animals! I expect full transparency, care, attention and updates from those that look after my pets whilst I’m away so this is what I feel most happy offering you whilst your pets are in my care. 💕

“Katie did a wonderful job babysitting our dog - he's a nervous boy but he warmed to Katie and her partner really quickly. They sent lots of updates and when we got home, he was happy and settled. Would definitely hire again :)”

About: Hello Dog Owners, my name is Gill and I adore dogs. I grew up with a dachshund, until age 11. I love spending a lot of time outdoors, walking in the countryside or riding my mountain bike. I live in Chippenham where there are many great dog walks nearby. I’ve been looking after other people’s dogs for 10 years now. It started with Borrowmydoggy when I lived in London. I walked Ted and Alan, both yorkshire terriers, for 3 years until their owner moved away. Then came 2 adorable big labradoodles, Hoozer and Oreo, who for 4 years I regularly walked and sat for while their owners were on holiday. Then I moved to Wiltshire where I grew up and have family. As a member of Trustedhousesitters I sat for 1 Labrador, 2 rescue cats and 4 alpacas which was fun! I now regularly sit for Golden retriever Nala and staffy/greyhound cross Bluebell when their owners are away and walk local cockapoo Bella every week. Several of these dogs have had medical issues and I’m used to managing meds. So I may be new to Rover but have plenty of sitting experience. Now having semi-retired from a career in marketing consultancy, I’m keen to spend more time caring for dogs and other animals and love meeting owners and their furry companions. I'm semi-retired now, so when I’m available for sitting or walks I won’t be working. I can dedicate all my time to your pets. For walking, I can walk your dog twice a week in the afternoons at a time of your choosing. I offer pet sitting in your own home. I like to have a video or phone chat with owners before the sit to understand everything that's important about the animals, e.g. their exact routine, details of food and any meds, number and timing of walks, on/off lead etc. The most important aspect of a sit is that the animals feel safe and cared for, and that they continue with the routine you have with them. During the sit I send a few pictures of what we've been up to, and communicate with you at regular intervals. I don’t like to leave dogs for more than two hours, less if they’re very anxious and when sitting I generally tend to spend all my time with the dogs, except for the obvious trips to the supermarket, etc. I don’t do back-to-back sits, perhaps one every 2-3 months, and do it just for the joy of being with the dogs and other animals. I'm also interested in dog walking and helping owners out by dropping in to feed or be with dogs or cats. Please get in touch to discuss your needs.

“Would highly recommend Dominic, he’s very reliable, honest and extremly helpful. He took Ralph for a long walk to the local nature reserve, very happy with everything .”

About: Having grown up with a bouncy cocker spaniel and a genteel Labrador as well as a range of other pets including rabbits, chickens, guinea pigs and tortoises I consider myself a confident and trustworthy pet sitter. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of opportunities to devote time to dog walking, playing and quality time with your pet Please communicate your pets needs. It’s important they feel safe and relaxed in my company and their environment. I can cater to all needs big or small.

“Jamie was amazing with my dogs and kept me updated. They seemed happy when I got back home. All of the dogs have competing needs and Jamie looked after them all well 🙂”
