“Murali was absolutely wonderful - he took our whippet, Poppet, at short notice and looked after her beautifully. He sent lots of photos and videos whilst she was staying with him and his family, and was highly responsive at all times. I would definitely recommend him and will book Poppy in again with him whenever possible.”


“David was brilliant. He is a real natural with dogs. Juno was very happy with him, he followed her routines and he kept me well informed. I highly recommend him and will definitely use him again.”

“Rosie had such a fun night and made a new doggy friend and has come home well looked after and exhausted 😁. Can never fault Monica and would always reccommend to anyone looking for care for their dog.”

“Winnie had a lovely time staying with Sandra, her husband and Charlie the dog. They all made her feel very welcome and part of the family. We got some lovely photos and videos of Winnie enjoying her day out which was great. Thanks Sandra!”

“We needed someone locally to board our dog Darwin for one day/night at short notice and fortunately Hugo was available. When we dropped off Darwin we new straight away that he would be well looked after. We would definitely use Hugo again.”


“I booked Kinghei to look after my dog Lily for 5 days and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Lily is quite a lively and mischievous dog, so I was honestly a little worried — but Kinghei handled her brilliantly. She was well looked after, taken on regular walks, and clearly in great hands the whole time. It really put my mind at ease. Thank you so much, and I wish you all the best in your pet-sitting journey!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Ruby had the absolute best time with Chloe!! Would highly recommend Chloe to anyone, she was really responsive and gave plenty of updates on how Ruby was getting on whilst we were away. Lots of amazing walks in the South Downs!!”

“Fiona, James and their daughters made our two dogs very welcome in their home and looked after them very well. We had regular photos and updates, and they have come home very relaxed and happy. They accommodated Dizzy (a rescue with issues with other dogs) very well, avoiding situations that could upset her. Thanks Fiona & James!”

“Lynn and her partner were absolutely fantastic with Mia and made me feel completely at ease. Their home is lovely, with a great-sized garden and really nice walks nearby. They also have the most adorable dog. Mia was made to feel right at home she didn’t want to leave! I would highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10! I love spending time with them, having a cuddle or playing around. I have watched over many friends and families animals with great care and responsibility. I am a full-time student who has very little in person study time. I love to spend my free time around animals, having a snuggle or playing around. I am always keeping a keen eye on your fur baby, closely watching what they’re doing and where they’re going. I can follow any instructions that ensure their safety!
“Mea and family were very welcoming with Mace and put us at ease straight away! We had regular updates and looked like he had plenty of fun there. Would recommend and use again! Thanks for looking after Mace for us!”

“Milo had a fantastic stay with Jenny! She sent lots of update pics of our puppy looking happy on daily walks. Lots of space and toys for the dogs to play with. I'd definitely recommend Jenny! 😁”


About: Hi, I’m Sophie! My partner George and I recently bought our first home in Eastleigh, and we’re both huge dog lovers. While our work commitments mean we can’t have a dog of our own right now, we’d love to help others by providing caring and reliable dog walking and sitting services. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, from a Border Collie to a Lhasa Apso/Yorkie mix, and now a lovely litte Poochon. I’m very used to grooming needs and making sure coats are well cared for. I also regularly help care for family dogs, including Labradors, so I’m confident with both small and large breeds. Having experienced every stage of a dog’s life, I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies as well as giving extra patience, attention, and love to older dogs. I work full-time across four days a week, which means I’m fully available on Tuesdays and weekends. On my days off, your dog will have my full attention. I’ll always stick to your routine and make sure your pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for—whether that’s during a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay. I’m happy to provide as many walks as your dog needs, along with plenty of playtime and attention. They’ll also have access to a secure garden and a safe, dog-friendly home environment. I have a fully fenced, secure garden and plenty of lovely walking routes nearby. I’m also happy to take dogs out in the car for longer walks or new environments if they enjoy that. I always aim to follow your preferences and routine to make sure you feel completely comfortable. My home does have stairs, but these can be safely blocked off if needed. Dogs are welcome to settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. You’re very welcome to bring their bed, crate, blankets, or anything familiar from home. If your dog is used to cuddling up on the sofa, they’ll be more than welcome to do the same here!
“We have had an incredibly positive experience with Eleanor. Her communication and organisation is fantastic and we know without question that the level of care that our dog Bear received whilst we were away was the best of the best. Eleanor is clearly looking to make the experience for both pet and owner as best as it can be and we couldn't be more grateful for her. Thank you for taking such good care of our precious Bear.”

“This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family, I was a bit nervous of how the dogs would settle with someone they didn’t know. Kelly was brilliant, we arranged a meeting before so the dogs could meet her and check out where they would be staying, the dogs seemed very comfortable with Kelly and their surroundings. Kelly kept me updated with how they were and posted photos. It was lovely to see they had a lovely weekend with Kelly. They enjoyed some forest walks and came home two very happy dogs.”

“Shadia was brilliant she kept me updated the whole weekend. Benji enjoyed his time there and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Shadia to anyone. Thank you so much for looking after Benji for us xx”

About: I have had dogs all my life and cared for my family’s pets as a teenager. As we have a dog ourselves our home and lifestyle is 100% dog friendly. We have lots of lovely walks local to us and enjoy getting out and exploring together! I’m currently working part time and so am around to walk and care for your dog Thursday to Sunday. While they’re with Harry and I, your dog will get 2 walks a day and have someone in the house with them all of the time to keep them company. We have a fully fenced garden and a very friendly dog who enjoys the company of other dogs. Our toddler also loves playing in the garden and throwing the ball for anyone that wants to join in.
“We recently had Kellie look after our dog for the first time, and we couldn't be happpier with the experience, We received regular updates and photos which reassured us that Peppa was not only safe but happy and well cared for. We will definitely be booking Kellie again highly recommended.”
