9. Emily D.
“I believe that Emily is more than qualified to be a pet caregiver as she possess all the traits that one should have. She cares deeply for the animals, she enjoys spending time with them and making sure that they are fed and happy and she has a great understanding dogs and there needs I could go on but those were the main ones that stood out to me. I trust her, speaking from personal experience as she has taken care of bowie my freinchie on many occasions when I have had to be out of the house for long periods of time and every time he came back happier and happier. She took him out for walks made sure he was ok while I was out of the house working and ensured that he was getting enough attention and getting fed. from seeing her take care of my dog it has made me want to go to her if i ever need anyone to watch my dog as I believe there is no one better to take care if him than her. In my mind she possess the traits to make a great dog sitter and pet sitter and has had experience doing it with my dog. she also has her own dog and cares for her deeply as well which aids in her in understanding to make sure the dog is happy and there needs are met. I hope that this short testimony helps you see that Emily would be a great addition and will be beneficial to not just me but many others who would require her service.”

About: Had dogs growing up, springer spaniel, cocker spaniel and cairn terrier. Help to look after my parents pug/border terrier mongrel, friend’s whippet and now dogs from Rover too! Lots of great walks around where we live and a garden to play in too. I work full time in the week, therefore we would be happy to accommodate a dog/dogs from Friday eve to Sun eve max for daycare or day and overnight stays. I have a large fully fenced garden and no other pets. We can have dogs sleep downstairs or upstairs. Able to socialise with friends and families dogs too if requested/suitable. Between me and my partner one of us is flexible working at home each weekday and we don’t work weekends. We are also outdoorsey people so evening and weekend plans are always outdoor based. Care for them as if they were my own pets, lots of attention and time outdoors. Plenty of loo breaks and walks around the village lanes.

17. Caitlin T.
“Caitlin is an amazing and thoughtful sitter who takes great responsibility and care in her work with animals. Her work on farms and with horses growing up has made her well equipt to care for dogs of all sizes and needs. We've left our dog (a quite big and nervous mixed breed) with her on many occasions for extended stays and her attentiveness to his needs and patience with his temperment meant that he was always arriving with an excited pep in his step, and leaving with a satisfied smile on his face.”
