About: Hello, I’m a BIG lover of dogs and their individual personalities. We had a family Labrador called Baileys who loved beach walks. I’ve co-parented a Pug called Darcie, who became disabled (her back legs buckled) and I took her for walks in a doggy rucksack, which she loved! Also, before they moved to Scotland, I was an auntie to my friend’s French Bulldog called Travis, who’s a rescue. I currently look after a French Bulldog called Tina. Therefore, I have experience with a diverse range of dogs, including dogs with disabilities as well as nervous, reactive dogs. Being a lover of the outdoors and nature, I enjoy taking dogs out for walks and on little adventures. I believe in giving all dogs the best quality of life and would love the opportunity to be a part of their doggy journey. I work at a local university and work from home a lot, so I’m open to a dog keeping me company at my ground floor flat where I live alone with no pets, and have a front garden. I also have spare time some evenings and weekends, and am open to looking after dogs in owners’ homes overnight and for holidays. I’m happy to answer any questions you have and I look forward to hearing from you and your fur baby. I work from home 4 days a week (days vary), and can take your fur baby to the toilet when needed during this time, and for a walk at lunch and/or after work. At weekends I like to get out in nature and would be happy to take them with me to enjoy the outdoors. I have an unfenced front garden (where I would keep your fluffy one on a lead if required, or would supervise them if they can be off-lead). I live in 2 bedroom flat where I live alone, so lots of space for your fluffy one to be free with me.

“Carly looked after our three year old working cocker spaniel who has tons of energy and can be a little anxious. He had a great time with Carly and her dog Pup! We really appreciated the twice daily updates and we got home to a very happy dog. We would definitely recommend Carly and will certainly book her again!”

“We were looking for someone to look after our two whippets for a week while we went on holiday. It was the first time we'd left them and were quite nervous about finding the best fit. Our two, both took to Jane straight away, treating them like they were her own. The doggies loved her and responded to her, in some instances, better than they do with us! Jane made going away easy and both dogs ( especially our female Whippet who can be anxious) were given the five star treatment. We would highly recommend Jane to anyone needing a dog/house sitter as she is totally competent, reliable and trustworthy. I have started to refer to her as the Whippet whisperer!”

About: Hello! . I am a primary school teacher working locally and proud owner of Hessian, my five year old indoor cat. I love cats and animals in general and Hessian gives me so much joy and company. She is a nervous cat and so I feel I am well equipped to deal with other nervous cats. I live in Worthing and often use cat in a flat to find suitable cat sitters for my cat. I know that she cat is happiest when at home in her own environment and so I will ensure I give you the piece of mind to relax whilst you are away knowing that your gorgeous cat is taken care of.

About: RSPCA Mount Noddy volunteer walker Hearing dogs for deaf people assisting Dogs in the family always Help with raising puppies I’m reliable, patient, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors, so whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just having some company and affection, I’d be happy to help. I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine as I’m already active, organised, and enjoy spending time outdoors. I structure my days so I have flexibility for walks, drop-ins, or pet visits, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I enjoy being outside and staying active, so incorporating dog walking or pet care feels like a natural part of my lifestyle rather than a chore. I also have experience volunteering at Mount Noddy RSPCA, where I regularly helped walk and care for multiple dogs. This taught me how to manage time effectively and be reliable with scheduled commitments, even when handling different dogs with varying needs. Overall, I make sure I only commit to pet care when I can give each dog proper attention, care, and consistency. I’m organised, dependable, and always prioritise the wellbeing of the animals I look after. I always care for pets with the same attention and responsibility as if they were my own. When looking after a dog in the owner’s home or taking them out for walks, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure the dog feels comfortable and secure, especially in a familiar environment, and I take time to build trust and understand their personality. I have experience handling a variety of dogs through volunteering at Mount Noddy RSPCA, where I regularly walked multiple dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. This has taught me how to stay calm, alert, and in control in different situations, whether a dog is energetic, nervous, or reactive. Safety is always my top priority. I ensure leads, harnesses, and gates are secure, and I’m careful during walks to avoid unsafe situations. I also pay attention to the dog’s behaviour and wellbeing throughout, making sure they are happy, hydrated, and not overexerted. Because I’ve grown up around dogs and have supported puppy care through family volunteering with Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, I’m also confident helping with basic training reinforcement, socialisation, and gentle handling of puppies. Overall, I aim to provide a calm, reliable, and caring presence so both pets and owners feel completely at ease.

“Isabella has been very professional! We met first for an quick introduction with Kobe, then she has been very careful to all the details regarding medication. She has also been very nice, updating me with pictures and videos of my dog while he was staying over. I definitely recommend her!”

About: I previously had my own Fox Terrier and have many years of experience living with and caring for dogs. When he was young, I undertook six months of structured training with Applied Canine Behaviourist and professional dog trainer Julie Hindle. The experience gave me a good understanding of canine behaviour and body language, and taught me the importance of calm, confident and consistent handling. I now regularly walk and care for dogs for friends, including having dogs stay with me for several weeks at a time. I enjoy getting to know each dog's individual character and adapting my approach to their temperament, age and needs. I live on my own without pets or children, so I can offer visiting dogs a quiet environment with plenty of individual attention. I work independently and have a flexible daily routine, so I can adapt walks and care around a dog's usual schedule. I enjoy walking and spending time outdoors, and having a dog with me fits naturally into my day. When a dog stays with me, I am able to give them plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I take time to understand each dog's normal routine, temperament and boundaries, and aim to keep their care as familiar and consistent as possible. I pay close attention to body language and behaviour, particularly when meeting other dogs or encountering unfamiliar situations. I also have hands-on experience with basic grooming, including brushing, coat care, nail trimming and general hygiene, and am comfortable handling dogs calmly during grooming.

About: I've always had a natural instinct when it comes to connecting with animals - from senior cats and neighbourhood pets to the local dogs who'd seek me out when I worked in dog friendly pubs! With that 25 years of experience in hospitality, I pride myself on clear communication, understanding different personalities, and delivering reliable, high quality care tailored to both you and your pet. As a nature photographer, I've spent years learning how to give animals their space, read their subtle body language, and wait patiently for them to feel comfortable with me. That same quiet patience carries over to my pet sitting - whether I'm earning trust of a shy cat or keeping an energetic dog happy and relaxed. My background: Cats & small pets: Experience with multi-cat households, senior feline care, rabbits, hamsters and reptiles. Dogs: Plenty of hand-on experience looking after dogs owned by family, friends and partners. Bonus: Because of my photography background, you'll get fantastic, high quality photo updates of your pets while you're away! I work a shift pattern that gives me full, dedicated days off during the week and weekends. On my off days, pet care is my sole focus,allowing me to give your pet plenty of quality time, companionship and attention. I keep my calender up-to-date so you can easily see when I'm free, but feel free to message me to check specific dates. Because I provide care directly in your pets own home, safety, trust and clear communication are my top priorities. High Responsibility & Care: In my main job, I work in a residential care home supporting young people with complex trauma. This requires deep patience, emotional intuition, and strict attention to detail - skills I bring directly to caring for your pets. Medication & Accuracy: I handle medication and detailed record-keeping as part of my daily job, so you can trust me to follow any precise feeding, medical, or routine instructions to the letter. Home Security & Peace of Mind: I respect your home as if it were my own - keeping it clean, secure and sending regular photo updates so you can relax knowing everything is taken care of!

“Lauren is a lovely young lady- wise and caring beyond her years. She has a natural affinity with animals and my silly scared shih tzu rescue was able to bond readily with her. She allowed time and patience to win through. I would not hesitate to offer Lauren more opportunities and have already requested weekly dog walks with my Suki.”

“Elise kindly took care of our 7 year old dog Sáiva whilst we were away for 4 nights. Elise sent me updates and photos every day, which we really appreciated. She also took good care of our home, and probably left it tidier than how we found it! Would definitely recommend :)”

“Claire was amazing and put our Doberman Harley at ease straight away. She let us know throughout the evening how she was getting on and on our return Harley was happy and content so had obviously felt safe and happy being in Claire’s company! Will definitely book Claire in again soon. Thanks so much!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats - I would like to help cat owners to go on holiday and I can help feed, once or twice a day I work full time but can always provide support in the morning and after work I am a car safe driver Trusted person who cares I have a fenced garden My retired father can help with walks to the sea side We both care for animals to a high standard

“Daria stayed for 2 nights at my home whilst I was away, and she was fantastic. Buddy absolutely loved her. She sent photos and texted updates to keep my mind at ease. It was very reassuring to know that someone was taking really good care of Buddy. I’ll definitely book Daria again.”

About: I’m currently working part time on weekdays but can do mornings and evenings and weekends and will give your animals the time it needs I have been brought up with cats. Good with all animals. I am a nurse- I know that doesn’t mean vet. But I have good medical knowledge and background and overall awareness

About: Hey, I'm Jackie. I've loved and been surrounded by dogs most of my life. :) Growing up, my family bred dachshunds. From a young age, I pet-sat and dog-walked for my neighbour's pets. My first official job was in a mall pet shop, bathing dogs and cleaning cages. In college, I worked at a doggy daycare that looked after dogs of all sizes and breeds. I'm now the proud mom to two small rescue dogs (Maggie & Mango). I also have experience working with cats, small rodents, birds and exotic animals (I've had two pet hedgehogs and have looked after bearded dragons). I'm more than happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to get to know you and your pet before booking. I know how important it is to find the perfect person to take care of your best friend, and I would love to be that person! :) As a freelance voiceover artist, I have a flexible schedule. I'm available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can easily fit your pet care into my routine and will do my best to accommodate your needs. Currently based in Worthing. I am more than happy to care for your pet in your home and will follow any rules or guidelines you have (ie dogs not allowed in bed or on the sofa). My husband and I can also look after pets in our home. We're both freelancers, so home at all hours. We have a fully enclosed garden, and we also live near lots of lovely dog parks. Please note that we have two rescue dogs of our own. Maggie loves to play with new visitors, but Mango does not care to socialise. All dogs will have constant supervision.

“Katie is wonderful . We met Katie and knew right away she was someone we could trust. It was a pleasure to have her stay and look after our dog and cats . Katie took on board all the various needs of our pets and made sure they were all looked after . The dog even got a little Xmas gift which she loves. We could not have asked for more. The house was clean and tidy when we got back, Katie kept in good contact with us and the pets weren’t that happy that she had left. I can’t recommend her enough if you want a very caring and trustworthy person to look after your home and pets”

About: I've always been an animal lover and have grown up with cats and dogs being apart of my family since I was little, so I'm no stranger to being around four legged fluffy companions! I have a qualification in animal behaviour and welfare, and my family have a loveable, if slightly energetic, Cockapoo called Bryn. I work full time, but am more than happy to do evenings and weekends. I am flexible so should anything change in your plans then am more than happy to rearrange times/days to help suit you. When I visit or stay over at someone's house I will keep everything very tidy and clean up after myself. I will ensure your pet is comfortable with a new person and will be calm and quiet and allow them time to warn to me and feel at ease, as well as providing enrichment like walks and playtime.

About: I've cared for my own pets for 5 years, so I understand the little things that make pets feel comfortable and safe — routines, favorite spots and reading their moods. I send detailed updates and photos throughout every visit, so you can relax knowing your furry friend is happy, safe, and loved. *I will often be pet sitting with my 10 year old animal-loving daughter. She is very responsible and sensible with animals and would help to feed, care for them as needed. I'm off work for the summer, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to pet care. Rather than just relaxing, I wanted to spend this time doing something meaningful — helping others and giving their pets the attention and company they deserve while owners are away. That means I can be flexible with visit times and give each pet unpaid attention, not squeeze it in between other commitments. Since I care for pets in the your own home, I make sure every visit covers all your pet's needs — fresh food and water, litter box or waste cleanup, exercise or playtime and plenty of attention. I also take care of basic house chores while you're away, like bringing in post, and basic security such as locking doors and making sure everything's secure before I leave. If anything comes up or seems off, I'll always communicate with you directly and promptly, so you're never left in the dark.
