“I had to book a sitter at short notice and lucky for us Sabina was free and able to look after Tam. She visited on Friday to meet him and ensure she knew his routine; Tam was very happy to meet her. Being a trainee vet nurse gave us confidence to leave Tam with her following his spinal surgery. Sabina arrived in plenty of time on Sunday, Tam was so happy to see her again. She even managed to encourage Tam to go for a walk which is unheard of when we go out. Sabina kept us updated during the day and we arrived home to a very happy boy. We have already lined her up for a couple of future bookings.”
“Rebecca was great with our nervous cockapoo, who took to her immediately. Rebecca was flexible and helpful, arrived on time, kept us updated while we were out, and made the whole process easy for us. We would definitely recommend.”
“We would highly recommend Saskia, she is fantastic! Dobby really took an instant love for her, and he was certainly tired out from all the cuddles 🥰 Thank you for taking great care of our fur baby xx”
“Chenyan was a fabulous sitter! Prior to the sitting, Chenyan came over for a meet & greet with our sighthound (saluki-lurcher), asked lots of questions about Sybils needs, and they got on very well! You can tell Chenyan loves dogs, and having her own whippet meant she really understood the sighthound needs/requirements which was great! We've already booked Chenyan in again for a few weeks time, and we know Sybil will be in good hands!”
“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!”
“Pavla has been amazing taking care of Kevin. He's happy, he's warm towards her and as soon as she left he went to smell the door and try to understand why she was going away. I've already have many other bookings planned with her, and looking forward to all of them. Thank you!”
“We needed someone to house sit our two dogs Holly and Lulu over the weekend at very short notice. Rebecca was able to do this and arrived promptly on Saturday morning. She looked after our dogs very well sending us frequent updates and photographs which reassured us that the dogs were fine. We are happy to recommend Rebecca and hope to use her again sometime.”
“Alice looked after Charlie for the evening. She was quick to respond during the booking process and was very punctual on the night. Charlie was well looked after and settled with Alice very quickly. We will absolutely book again”
“Our "usual" sitter was unable you come on this date, and so after an initial "meet and greet" we booked Lana. Lana was calm and friendly, and the dogs took to her, which was great. Lana kept me up to speed with walks, feeding etc, and we arrived home to happy dogs. Recommended.”
“Rachael did a week of overnight cat sitter whilst we were away on holiday. We usually have family watch our cats but no one was free so we were obviously nervous to try someone new. However Rachael exceeded our expectations. The cats seemed really happy when we got home which is also a good sign that they’ve been well taken care of, and the house even looked more sparkling clean than we left it. She made sure to give us lots of updates and daily photos. Would recommend Rachael for sure!”
“Hannah and Stuart were fantastic dog sitters for Teddy. Communication was great throughout, and Teddy clearly enjoyed their company. We felt at ease knowing he was being well looked after and would happily recommend them to others.”
“Andy was so good with our dogs Oskar and Olive. Oskar is usually a bit wary of strangers, however Oskar immediately warmed to Andy. Andy stayed in our house with the dogs and was extremely attentive, not only to the dogs but also our house. I would highly recommend Andy to care for your dog.”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have owned multiple cats over the years, so I’m very used to caring for pets, understanding their personalities, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m also a big dog lover and really enjoy spending time playing with dogs, going for walks, and giving them plenty of attention. Jennifer also has plenty of experience caring for smaller pets, having looked after rabbits and guinea pigs over the years. Together, we’re very comfortable with different pet personalities and routines, from giving them gentle attention and playtime to making sure they feel safe, settled, and properly cared for in their own home. We work from home full time, which means We have a flexible schedule and can give pets the time and care they deserve throughout the day. We are naturally very caring, patient, and attentive, and will always treat your pets as if they were my own - whether that means playtime, cuddles, feeding, walks, or simply keeping them company.

About: I own a large dog with epilepsy for nearly 14 years and have loved taking care of him. I understand that pets can feel stressed and nervous when their owners aren’t with them so I understand wanting to have someone look after them, or take them on long walks to give an enjoyable and fun experience. Although I don’t have much professional experience, I have looked after pets for family whenever I could. I’m currently taking a Dog Grooming course for a Level 3 Diploma and have recently completed my Pet First Aid course so I’m ready for an emergency should one occur. I’m available to pet sit on any day or night you wish. I’m also available to dog walk at any time whether it is early in the morning, or later in the evening! My pet is my top priority, and so is any other pet I look after so I always make sure they’re safe and well cared for (and spoiled). I’m trained in Pet First Aid so I am prepared for any emergencies
“Gavin was amazing with our two boys . He looked after them brilliantly and sent pictures to put out minds at ease. Left our house spotless , you would never have known he was there . Our pooches took to him straight away because he took the time to greet them and let them get used to him . Would have him again in a flash !”
About: At the moment I'm am the owner of 4 lovely cats. 1 black and white cat with white kitty toes! 1 tabby cat, 1 white black and grey and one grey and black. I love cats 🐈 and want them all home with me and hubby.
About: I have hands-on experience with both big and small dogs, having cared for an Akita and a Frenchie, on multiple occasions in the past. The longest I’ve cared for pets was for 15 days overnight in-house care, during which I handled everything from giving medications to vet visits. Of course, daily walks and plenty of love were always part of the routine. I’m also respectful and considerate when it comes to taking care of your home, ensuring both your pets and your space are in great hands. I work from home most days and only go into the office once or twice a week, so I have a flexible schedule for pet care. My family previously had a loving Doberman, and a fiery Calico cat, so I understand the responsibility and routine pets need throughout the day. I’m also very active and enjoy regular walks, so taking dogs out fits naturally into my routine. Most of my weekends are free, and I genuinely enjoy being around animals and it is easy for me to prioritise their wellbeing. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs, as well as cats, and have looked after pets in their own homes. I always make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and well cared for, while also keeping owners’ homes clean and tidy. I am confident handling dogs with different needs and temperaments, including larger dogs and those that require muzzles during walks. I pride myself on being reliable, adaptable, and committed to making both pets and owners feel at ease.

Chenyan was excellent house sitting Oskar!! The first time we had used a house sitter, but she made us feel really confident that she would (and did!) take great care of him. Updates were great, asked a lot of questions to make sure she knew exactly what to do and when we got back he was so happy and relaxed, which was great for us. Would totally recommend her to look after your pet.
Alex was perfect. Really friendly and accommodating with planning, very easy to talk to. She's obviously a real animal lover, Omelette is a bit of an awkward dog at the best of times but made fast friends with him and understood and dealt excellently with his reactivity issues. We got regular photos and updates and could see he was having a great time. On top of that Alex left the house completely spotless and put the wash on before she left which made a much softer landing for us coming back from holiday. I couldn't recommend Alex enough.
Anna is so lovely and super professional from the first minute we got in contact, and when Bear met her for the first time he ran up to her like he's known her for ages! I felt reassured that Bear was in safe and caring hands - Anna gave a good amount of updates and was always responsive. I'd recommend her to anyone!
Rebecca was amazing looking after our dog Cosmo and cat as well! She came round to meet before the booking which was a lovely touch, and our dog settled so well with her. It was lovely knowing he was in safe hands and not having to worry on our day out! Will definitely book with her again :)
Sydney looked after our two cats wonderfully well again. She’s very good at keeping us updated on them. This time one of them had got into a little bit of a fight and she noticed straight away and got in touch. A quick cleanup at the vets and he was fine the next day. Well done for being on top of it!
We are so thrilled to have found Jade. She clearly loves and knows a lot about dogs. Our dog was clearly happy in her company. Jade’s communication whilst we were away was reassuring and sweet. She also gave a full report upon our return. Jade took care of our home beautifully. We highly recommend Jade.
