Me and my partner Stevie would love to look after your dog. We have busy jobs and work full time but love to take the pressure off with a nature walk on a weekend. Both animal lovers but don’t have the time during week days for pets so would love to help with yours in our spare time! We have a spacious fenced garden for pups to roam. Indoor space for play. Lots of love and attention will be given. Love to walk. Dogs do not have to be crate trained

About: With years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, I understand that leaving your beloved companion with someone new can feel daunting. That's why I focus on building a trusting relationship with both you and your pet from our very first meeting, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and individual needs. Pet care is my full-time job, which means I’m fully dedicated to providing consistent, reliable care throughout the week. I structure my days around pet visits, dog walks, and day boarding, allowing me to be flexible with timings where needed. This flexibility means I can accommodate morning, lunchtime, and afternoon visits, as well as regular weekly routines or one-off bookings. Because this is my main focus, I’m able to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve without rushing between commitments. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and family-based environment where animals are supervised throughout the day. I keep numbers small to ensure each pet receives individual attention and to maintain a relaxed atmosphere. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special requirements before their stay. This includes feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise levels, and any anxiety or behavioral considerations. For home visits, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel secure in their own environment. I ensure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh water, feeding, litter tray cleaning, and enrichment or companionship during each visit. Trust is very important to me, so I treat every home with respect and care, and I keep pet owners updated with messages, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I've grown up with pets and had animals in my house for the majority of my life. Until recently I had a wonderful Labrador who unfortunately passed away in 2024, and I miss having a canine companion in the house whilst working from home and getting my daily walks in. I live with my wife and two children (aged 8 and 10), so any dogs I look after must be Ok with children. We also have a cat, but she will most likely be out and about during the day. I live in a development with plenty of walks and woodland to explore where we can keep well away from traffic and busy roads. Find more here: ........_dogs_best_friend_menston I work from home so I'm generally in for the most of the day. If I do go out it's usually only for an hour or two. I have a fenced private garden and plenty of green space and woodland in the local area to explore. I'll also be at home with your dog for the majority of the day. If your dog needs to have someone with them constantly, then this can be arranged on certain days subject to my availability.
“Monika was very nice and helpful. Always replied to my message how is my dog. She was sending picture updates on how he's doing, as I was worried a bit, having quite anxious dog. Freddie looked relaxed and calm when I came to collect him. I would recommend Monika”
“This is my second time leaving Tilly with Luke and Karolina. They are very accommodating in all aspects of drop-off and pick-up and Tilly's care and needs. I was updated daily with how Tilly was getting on, and photos of Tilly were sent, which helped reassure me that she was fine. Tilly smelled amazing on pickup, having been bathed after a muddy outing; her coat looked amazing, and she looked happy, and I would not hesitate to leave Tilly with this lovely, caring couple for all my future dog-free holidays and events. They both come highly recommended by Tilly and me. Thank you!”
About: I’ve lived in BD13, Thornton for over 30 years, and have been a dog owner for the last 10 years. I retired from FT work in 2024, so have plenty of spare time. I walk daily, no matter what the weather, and know some great off road routes for dog walking, so can help your dog maintain a level of fitness if for any reason you’re unable to do so, whether due to health issues, or because of work or family commitments, or if you just need a break! I’ll record walks on Strava so you can see what exercise your dog has done, and I’ll send you pics to show your doggie having fun! Car owner, so can drive to / from anywhere local. For home boarding, I live with my wife of 33 years, along with Angus, our 12 year old Jack Russell Terrier. If your dog stays with us, they will be welcomed, and treated as our own. I retired from full time work in 2024, so have plenty of time to spare, and can offer dog care / walking services on most days. Even if it’s just a one off, to support your dog whilst you’re away for a special occasion, I can hopefully help out. My house has a lovely green garden, mostly fenced, so if your pet isn’t ready for walking the full requested period, they can relax either in my house or garden whilst you have time out! I will record all walks on strava, and send you screenshots of routes, so you know your dog has been exercised, aswell as pics if you wish.

“Really pleased with saddique. Communication great. Oasis is a shy cat that hides. He has only recently moved into my household. Hopefully next time i use saddique he might not be as shy. Will definitely use in the future.”
“Eve took exceptional care of our cats, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We arranged morning and evening visits, and she consistently provided detailed updates along with photos after every visit, which gave us great peace of mind. Our home was undergoing some construction at the time, which made things a bit inconvenient, but Eve handled everything professionally and even kept us informed about matters beyond her duties. That level of attentiveness was incredibly reassuring and much appreciated. Most importantly, our cats absolutely adored her. They warmed to her far more quickly than we’ve ever experienced before, which truly speaks to her natural ability with animals. From start to finish, everything was smooth and completely trouble-free. We would not hesitate to book Eve again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Julie was great and trustworthy with our family cat. Thank you for taking the booking so last minute!! We are so happy our cat was cared for during our time away. Julie has stayed for 5 nights and was fantastic”

“It was lovely meeting Vee! She was great with our cats, we came home to a happy bunch. She gave meds to one of them with no issues and communication was spot on, after each visit. We definitely recommend, thank you Vee! ”
“Katie did a wonderful job looking after Fudge and our home while we were away for the week. She answered all our questions and provided lovely updates on how our boy was doing. She was very reassuring, and didn't mind all of the instructions I left behind. And on return our house was in excellent condition, she had changed the litter, emptied the bin, and stripped the bed. I was worried that leaving Fudge for a week would be stressful for him, but I can see that he's been well cared for, and his happy and healthy! We will look to book with Katie again next time we go away 😊”
“Ellen was great and communicative when looking after our cats. We booked super last minute but this was not a problem. She let me know what time she was coming each day. Shame the cats were rather elusive and denied her of any snuggles and belly rubs!”
“Chloe is very caring and loving lady.I could wholeheartedly rely on her services.She looked after my cat like it was her own and was sending me pictures and videos of my very happy and content cat....made me jealous at times lol.She also offered to water my plants,which was very thoughtful! I enjoyed my holiday and did not have to worry about anything as i knew she would hand any issues with ease and care. I definitely recommend lovely Chloe and will use her services again!!!!! Thank you xxx”
“ If you're looking for a catsitter, Simon is a perfect choice! He provides a high standard of care, and it is clear he genuinely cares about the needs and wellbeing of cats. Communication was clear and timely and provided us with peace of mind whilst on our holiday. Thank you! We will be booking again!”

About: I've always been an animal lover, and I have been caring for various pets for many years! I have my own cat, Tommy, who I've had the pleasure of taking care of over the past 10 years. Looking after him has given me hands-on experience with everything from feeding and grooming to recognising changes in his behaviour or health. Over the years, i have learned how important patience and building trust is with animals.
“Berry is a reliable and considerate cat sitter who goes above and beyond to make sure our furry friend is comfortable when we are away. She is great at communicating any updates and she is happy to spend time with your pet when possible since she genuinely loves cats. We have benefitted from Berry's cat sitting several times and couldn't recommend her more!”

About: I have looked after dogs young and old since I was a kid and have 10 years of training guide dog puppies at home. I am comfortable handling big, medium and small-sized dogs and I'm good at adapting to individual dogs needs. I am a researcher who works from home so my hours are flexible (especially Mon-Fri) and I can fit in with you and your dog's schedule. I am happy to adapt to whatever requirements you have for your dog's comfort in their own home including any particular feeding or toilet needs.

About: Hi, my name is Vita. I've been looking after furry friends for around 5 years now. I always joke saying that leaving your dog/cat with me is like sending them for a holiday while you go away. Long walks, playtime, cuddles and none stop attention is one of the top things I provide while they stay at mine. As I don't have pets of my own I am looking forward to any opportunity to have a four legged friend staying at mine. I have high sense of responsibility and their needs and comfort is my top priority. I am very flexible so anything can be discussed and agreed on so feel free to message me any time. If your little friend is friendly and have no issues with other dogs and cats, often I take them for a little trips and walks with my other furry friends or have them stay over while already having someone staying with me (often it's a cat with dog) but this can be discussed as a separate occasion. What I offer: *Long stays at mine if you go away and need somewhere to leave your friend for them to be comfortable and taken care of. *Short stays at mine 2-3 days *Daily walks. Mornings, afternoons or throughout the day. *Last minute drop offs and stays. Couple hours to couple days *Introduction meetups at yours or during the walk. *Regular updates with pictures or videos so you know your friend is doing well and is happy. *Anything else can be discussed and agreed on. Please feel free to message me with anything that you might need and I'm happy to discuss. Looking forward hearing from you soon 🤎 I'm working full time however have shift work during week. I'm available in the mornings or afternoon and have full 3 days where I am home. Looking after pets gives me the boost of having daily walks and having a companion while at home as I don't have pets of my own. I have a yard where they can freely room and run around. There is a park 10min walking distance from my house. Regular walks and playtime are part of daily life.

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I shared 13 wonderful years with my beloved dog, who passed away this March. I also had another sweet dog who sadly left me in September last year at only 4 years old due to cancer. Losing them was heartbreaking, but it only deepened my love and care for animals. I often care for pets of friends and family, treating them like my own. I would be truly happy to meet new dogs, spend time with them, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. Caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m here to give your dog regular walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention throughout the day. Your pet will always have company and love. My home is calm, safe, and pet-friendly, with cozy spots for resting and space for play. I follow your instructions closely to keep your dog’s routine consistent, and I always take time to understand their personality so they can settle in happily and feel at ease.
“We left our dog with a dogsitter for the first time, and I was quite worried — I didn’t know how he would behave, whether he might be aggressive, or miss us too much. But everything went perfectly. I received several messages with updates about how he was doing, and I always knew I could reach out and get a quick reply. I’m very grateful to Ance — she is truly caring and attentive, both with animals and their owners. Highly recommended!”
“Thank you Daylan and Dusty for being so kind and attentive to help Rudy have a great first day. She is looking forward to her next visit and we are pleased to have the peace of mind that she is well cared for.”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs the longest one being 14 years, I’m known for spoiling all animals with extreme fuss especially dogs of all ages and sizes. I work from home so I’m able to take regular walks with the pet, as well as provide them with the attention they need daily. I have a flat, there is no lift so might not be ideal for a senior dog, there is plenty of green space near my house.

“Dawn made everything very simple and stress-free. We visited her home a few days before. Dawn made us feel completely at ease and was happy to answer any questions. As soon as we left Bruno, we could hear him crying, but just a few minutes later Dawn was already sending us messages showing him calm and relaxed, which immediately put our minds at ease. Throughout the day, she kept us updated with photos and comments about how Bruno was doing. When we picked him up, he was calm and happy — a clear sign that he enjoyed his day with Dawn.”
“Sophie is so lovely, caring nature that takes pride when looking after your fur babies 🐾 They have done a fantastic job with our dog Willow. She is a very nervous and anxious dog and Sophie was great sending photos to reassure us Willow had settled in well and photos sent throughout the day. Sophie really cares about the wellbeing of our dog and asked lots of questions to make sure she knew everything she needed to know. Will most certainly reach out to Sophie again to look after Willow. Thank you Sophie 😊 🙏🏻 💓”
About: I have always been surrounded by pets since childhood. I currently reside in a lovely new build property in Bradford, featuring five bedrooms and a large rear garden located on a quiet cul-de-sac. I've set up a small play area inside our garage specifically for the pets. I have a five-year-old Yorkshire Terrier whom I take for walks twice a day. As I work full-time working from home , Hence I am home with my dog for most of the time. Additionally, I have installed CCTV inside the house to keep a close eye on them. The garden is fenced, providing a secure environment, and my little Yorkie is a delightful companion to keep your pet entertained. I also have plenty of pet-safe toys and treats available for them to enjoy. In my daily routine, pet care is a fundamental aspect that I prioritize. Each day begins with taking my Yorkshire Terrier for a morning walk, which not only provides her with exercise but also helps to set a positive tone for the day. After my walk, I ensure she has her meals and ample playtime, incorporating interactive toys to keep her mentally stimulated. During my work hours, I maintain my dog’s well-being by ensuring she has access to her play area and is monitored through our indoor CCTV system. This allows me to keep a watchful eye on her while I’m busy with work tasks. In the evenings, I dedicate time to another walk, providing her with physical exercise and the opportunity to explore. I also make it a point to engage in playtime and training sessions during the week, reinforcing good behavior and strengthening our bond. On weekends or my days off, I like to enhance our routine with longer outings or trips to pet-friendly parks, which provide additional socialization and adventure. Overall, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly schedule, ensuring a happy and healthy life for my dog while maintaining my responsibilities. When caring for pets in my home or a pet owner's home, I follow a comprehensive approach that prioritizes their health, safety, and well-being. Here are the key aspects of my care routine: 1. **Environment**: I ensure that the living space is safe and secure. This includes pet-proofing areas by removing hazards and ensuring that all spaces are fenced or gated if necessary. I also provide a comfortable sleeping area and ensure that the temperature is suitable for the pets. 2. **Feeding**: I follow the pet owner's feeding plan, adhering to specific dietary needs and schedules. I provide fresh water at all times and ensure that food bowls are clean and easily accessible. 3. **Exercise**: Regular exercise is crucial for pets. I take them for walks, engage in playtime, and provide plenty of opportunities for physical activity. This helps them burn off energy and stay healthy. 4. **Mental Stimulation**: I offer a variety of toys and activities to keep pets mentally engaged. Interactive toys, puzzles, and training sessions are integrated into the daily routine to promote cognitive development. 5. **Health Monitoring**: I observe pets for any signs of illness or discomfort. If any issues arise, I communicate promptly with the pet owner and seek veterinary care if necessary. 6. **Hygiene**: I maintain cleanliness by regularly grooming the pets, bathing them as required, and keeping their living area tidy. This includes cleaning litter boxes for cats or keeping the yard clean for dogs. 7. **Affection and Socialization**: I provide plenty of love and attention, allowing pets to feel secure and happy. This may include cuddling, petting, and ensuring they receive social interaction with other pets or people. By following these practices, I ensure that pets receive compassionate and thorough care, whether in my home or theirs, creating a nurturing and loving environment.

“Saddique walked my double doodle for 4 days whilst I was away and he did a great job 😊 He’s a lovely guy, I received loads of pictures and it was clear Milo was well looked after the whole time.”
About: I graduated at Askham Bryan College in York in 2024 with a BSc Degree in Canine and Feline Behaviour and Welfare. I have experience in training a variety of dog breeds. I have taught puppy classes, and basic training for all ages, and have successfully trained multiple dogs in assistance work. I have gained knowledge and experience through looking after my previous employer's three dogs for lengths of time, providing all of the different care needs for each dog such as administering medication for the eldest dog with arthritis, specific and extra grooming needs for a show dog, and keeping the smaller dog separated from the others as requested when letting her out to the garden and when feeding. I am currently available for cat and dog sitting appointment and bookings, I specialise in training and welfare, and for the needs of cats and dogs requiring medication, such as insulin injections and/or tablets to be administered. I can work to any requirements provided by the owner. I can follow the usual routine for the cats if requested, or if the owner would feel better with keeping the cats indoors, or want them back in the house at specific times, I can keep the cats sufficiently occupied and exercised. I can walk the dogs as requested and within the enclosed space of their homes when out in the garden.
About: I’ve always loved animals especially dogs and I treat them literally like fur babies! Ever since I was a young child I’ve had dogs around me and as pets. I use to always enjoy walking the neighbours dogs too. I’ve looked after friends and family’s pets numerous of times whilst they’ve been on holiday or just at work. I have a cocker spaniel of my own so he loves tagging along for the exercise and to socialise with other dogs! I’ve also helped friends when their dogs have had a litter. I helped them with feeding, toilet training and to keep clean. I’m currently working a 0 hour contract as a part time care assistant so I can be very flexible with time spent with your fur babies In my home I have a fenced garden with a locked gate to ensure safety the same goes for the back garden. When travelling with animals I will provide crates fitted correctly and also seatbelts for dogs that are not keen on crates

About: With years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, I understand that leaving your beloved companion with someone new can feel daunting. That's why I focus on building a trusting relationship with both you and your pet from our very first meeting, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and individual needs. Pet care is my full-time job, which means I’m fully dedicated to providing consistent, reliable care throughout the week. I structure my days around pet visits, dog walks, and day boarding, allowing me to be flexible with timings where needed. This flexibility means I can accommodate morning, lunchtime, and afternoon visits, as well as regular weekly routines or one-off bookings. Because this is my main focus, I’m able to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve without rushing between commitments. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and family-based environment where animals are supervised throughout the day. I keep numbers small to ensure each pet receives individual attention and to maintain a relaxed atmosphere. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special requirements before their stay. This includes feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise levels, and any anxiety or behavioral considerations. For home visits, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel secure in their own environment. I ensure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh water, feeding, litter tray cleaning, and enrichment or companionship during each visit. Trust is very important to me, so I treat every home with respect and care, and I keep pet owners updated with messages, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs most of my life for friends and family and have worked at a dog boarding kennels for 3 years working with all kinds of dog breeds and I studied dog behaviour, nutrition and management including housing and healthcare I’m currently working part time between 8-10am and 3-5pm so I’m available most days in between, if you are okay with your dog/dog’s being left for 2 hours morning and afternoon. In your home I will listen and follow all instructions to keep your pet safe and happy this will extend to outside the home on walks. Unfortunately i cannot have your pet in my home as I have a reactive dog and wouldn’t want to put another animal in danger or distress.
About: I've always been an animal lover, and I have been caring for various pets for many years! I have my own cat, Tommy, who I've had the pleasure of taking care of over the past 10 years. Looking after him has given me hands-on experience with everything from feeding and grooming to recognising changes in his behaviour or health. Over the years, i have learned how important patience and building trust is with animals. In addition to caring for my own cat, I've also helped look after a dog for around 5 years. This included regular walks, feeding and playing. I helped with basic training such as reinforcing good behaviours on walks, as well as maintaining good routine and structure with him. As he can be quite an energetic dog, this experience has given me the confidence in handling dogs with various energy levels. I have also taken care of other cats and dogs for shorter periods of time. Whether it's been a few days or a weekend, I always make sure to provide them the best level of care and attention as I would with my own cat. I always ensure that pets in my care feel safe, loved and comfortable. I pay close attention to their needs and personalities to ensure I can give the best care possible. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility and plenty of time to provide attentive and consistent care for pets. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make sure I plan my schedule around the needs of the animals I’m looking after. Because I’m not working full-time hours, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time throughout the week. I’m organised and reliable, and I always ensure pets are fed on time, exercised properly, and given lots of attention and affection. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully — including feeding routines, walking schedules, medication (if required), and any specific behavioural needs. I pay close attention to pets at all times and make sure they are kept in a secure and safe environment. I’m mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, avoiding unsafe foods or objects, and ensuring pets are supervised appropriately. I can also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away.
“This dog walking service is top-notch. The walker is always on time and seems to genuinely care for the dogs. My dog gets great exercise and socialization during the walks. Communication is excellent, with regular updates provided. I highly recommend this service to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog walker.”
About: I have looked after dogs young and old since I was a kid and have 10 years of training guide dog puppies at home. I am comfortable handling big, medium and small-sized dogs and I'm good at adapting to individual dogs needs. I am a researcher who works from home so my hours are flexible (especially Mon-Fri) and I can fit in with you and your dog's schedule. I am happy to adapt to whatever requirements you have for your dog's comfort in their own home including any particular feeding or toilet needs.
About: Hi there, I have had dogs all my adult life, ranging from my 10 & half stone Rottweiler to currently my 2 pugs , ranging from puppies to rescue dogs . I now have the time to help others, weather you need assistance due to work, new parents or just generally need a little help. I took early retirement 2 years ago, I have plenty of time to care for pets , which I love doing, from puppies to seniors . I can do puppy feeds, garden toilet breaks or just provide a friendly face or play mate. I can give company for senior or poorly pooches that just need checking in on .
About: A lifelong animal lover who would be so excited to take care of your little family members. My pooch is fortunate to have company most days since I work 3 days a week. I would be glad to offer your pups a helping hand and support since not everyone has this opportunity. I have house-sat for friends' and families' pets, so thought it would be a great opportunity to share my love with others. Previously I've had Japanese Akita’s, Shih Tzu and Labrador’s and now my bundle of fun Cockapoo 'Doug', so have plenty of experience training and caring for high-energy larger dogs that need lots of mental stimulation and enrichment. If your pup is happier cuddling on the couch, that works perfectly for a bookworm like me. As long as you're away, your furry family member will get all the attention and belly rubs it needs. I live a short walk from Northcliff park a quiet dog park and Roberts Park so your pooch will always have a big, grassy area to play on or off-leash or we can go for nice long walks. I love exploring new areas too, so if you are located in another area I would thrive on exploring new walks with your furry friend. While you're away, your pet can enjoy a good cuddle, play session, and park walk. As much as anything, I am a patient, loving, and reliable person, who loves sharing my love of animals with others. I am a qualified midwife. So not only do I love my fur babies but I bring real babies into the world. I work shift work but only 3 days a week so have 4 days free to love your fur babies as much as I love mine! My dog has free rein of the house. He sleeps on our bed and knows no where is off limited. Any dog is welcome to sleep on our sofa aswell, I believe a pet is as much part of the family as anyone else. I have a big garden which is fully secure with 6ft walls, the garden is packed with toys (as my dog takes them out and does not bring them back)
About: I can care for puppies right through to the senior dogs. My dogs enjoy 2 good walks a day plus regular toilet breaks. We play ball games and enjoy hikes in the local woods. I am currently provide insured dog walking, day care and boarding services, 7 days a week. All enquiries welcome. A meet and greet will be arranged to ensure that you, your dog and me will all be happy before booking a service. Boarding dogs will preferably not suffer from separation anxiety, I have to be able to nip out to the shops etc. I have a good existing customer base and my customers know they can rely on me any time. Some of my guest dogs have been coming for over 10 years so my home is their second home, it is happy and peaceful, I live on my own with my 4 Cocker Spaniels, Oscar(16), William (14), Amber(10) and Polly(3). I am available 7 days a week and at short notice. I have a fenced yard and 4 Spaniels of ages 16, 14, 10 and 3 years old so I can provide care for all ages of dogs.
About: Hi, Animals have been a huge part of our life for as long as we can remember, and caring for them is something that comes naturally to us. We have worked with pets at every stage of life and bring patience, calm energy, and genuine love to every animal we meet. We have also helped to birth and raise multiple puppy and kitten litters, giving us a solid understanding of early‑life care and how to support young animals as they grow. At home, we live with three German Shepherds and two Maine Coons, so we are very comfortable with large breeds, high‑drive dogs, and intelligent, vocal cats. Managing a busy multi‑pet household has taught us how to read body language, maintain harmony, and tailor routines to each pet’s unique personality. We are experienced with: • Shy, anxious, or reactive pets • High‑energy dogs and working breeds • Multi‑pet households • Following structured routines to keep pets feeling safe and secure What sets us apart is the level of attention and intention we bring to every visit. We don’t just “watch” pets — we bond with them. We learn their quirks, their comfort signals, and what makes them feel happy and relaxed. We also keep owners updated with photos and messages so you always feel connected while you’re away. Your pet’s wellbeing is our top priority, and we treat every animal as if they were our own. We would love to meet your furry family and make their time with us fun, safe, and stress‑free. Pet care is naturally woven into our everyday lives. With three German Shepherds and two Maine Coons at home, our daily routine already revolves around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training, grooming, and keeping everyone happy and stimulated. Because caring for animals is such a normal part of our day, adding your pet into our routine feels seamless and enjoyable. Throughout the week, we set aside dedicated time for walks, drop‑ins, and check‑ins, and we’re used to balancing the needs of multiple pets at once. Whether it’s morning exercise, midday enrichment, or evening wind‑down time, we’re always in “pet care mode.” It’s something we genuinely love doing, not something we squeeze in — which means your pet gets consistent, focused attention whenever they’re with us. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always at the centre of what we do. Whether we’re welcoming them into our home, visiting yours, or taking them out for a walk, we create a calm, structured, and reassuring environment that helps every animal feel secure and understood. Boarding (In Our Home) When pets stay with us, they join a home that already runs on routine, structure, and animal care. With our own German Shepherds and Maine Coons, we’re experienced in managing multiple pets safely and respectfully. We supervise all interactions, keep spaces clean and hazard‑free, and make sure each pet has their own comfortable area to relax. We follow your pet’s usual schedule—feeding, walks, playtime, and quiet time—so they settle in smoothly and feel right at home. Drop‑Ins (In Your Home) During drop‑ins, we care for your pet in the environment they know best. We follow your instructions exactly, from feeding and litter care to playtime and house rules. We’re mindful of doors, gates, and safety measures, and we always leave your home just as we found it. Our goal is to give your pet companionship, structure, and reassurance while keeping their routine consistent and stress‑free. Dog Walking On walks, safety is our top priority. We use secure leads, stay aware of our surroundings, and tailor each walk to your dog’s energy level and comfort. Whether your dog prefers a steady, focused walk or a more relaxed sniff‑and‑explore outing, we make sure they get the exercise and enrichment they need while staying safe and confident. Our Approach • Calm, confident handling • Close attention to body language and comfort • Clean, safe, well‑managed environments • Respect for your home and your pet’s routine • Clear communication and regular updates Your pet’s wellbeing is always our priority. No matter the service, you can trust that they’re cared for with patience, structure, and genuine love.
About: I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember, including dogs, cats, horses, and reptiles, which has given me a wide range of hands-on experience in animal care. From a young age, I developed a deep passion for working with animals and began training my first dog, Belle, at just seven years old. I proudly took her to dog shows to showcase the skills and abilities I had worked hard to develop with her, which taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of positive training. Currently, I have a French Bulldog named Leo, who is my absolute rock. Through caring for him, I have gained a strong understanding of the specific needs, health considerations, and attention that this breed requires. My experience extends beyond my own pets, as I have regularly looked after friends’ and family members’ dogs while they are away on holiday or working. I am reliable, responsible, and always prioritise the animals’ wellbeing, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and properly cared for at all times. Animals have always been at the heart of my life, and I take great pride in providing attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. I am currently looking at other options in my career so I am free weekdays to take care of your pets needs, whether you are at work or on holiday. I have a large fully enclosed decking with plenty of rooms for dogs to play with whatever toys they love. I also have Leo who is an friendly pooch for them to engage with as he loves to play with new friends. There are also tons of walks around my house with open space for dogs to bound around.
About: With over 5 years as a professional dog walker, I stand out by combining reliability, energy, and expert canine insight to deliver joyful, safe adventures every time. Certified in pet first aid and trained in pack management, I specialise in leash manners, recall reinforcement, and group dynamics for multi-dog walks. I’m currently working part-time hoping to leave my current job and persue a career in looking after and caring for your lovely pets every day! As a dog walker, I care for pets by following the owner’s instructions, ensuring their safety and comfort, and keeping them happy and exercised. I check leashes and gear before each walk, stay alert and in control during walks, provide water and paw cleaning afterward, and always update the owner on how their dog did.
About: I have a lifetime's experience of owning dogs. I have previously bred my own dogs, trained and competed in obedience competitions and consider myself a responsible owner. I have grown up with dogs and horses around. I have a border collie Sadie, who joined us at 18months old and is now 9yrs. Sadie (along with our previous 2 dogs) came from a rescue centre. I'm proud that she has become a loving, happy dog overcoming the bad treatment she had from her early years. I can be trusted to give your pet the care and attention along with individual requirements in your absence and would be happy to give updates throughout the stay. I am retired so can be flexible with my time. I walk our socialised dog daily and if you'd like her to join a daily walk that would be great, though your pet will receive whatever care that is required for their individual needs. I would follow the owner's instructions and routine to allow the pet the consistent care and attention needed to keep it as content and happy as possible in their own environment..

“Aidan is lovely - we booked rather last minute and Honey normally goes to Kennels and sulks for a few days afterwards, BUT this was a completely different experience she was so calm, happy and content when we collected, no sulking! We knownHoney had an equally good weekend and its was great to check in and know she was happy ! Thank you will rebook !!”

We felt completely confident leaving her with Vita. I would highly recommend her to anyone! A Massive thank you for your caring for Ursulețu.💖”
“Absolute first class experience with Christie who cared for our two boys for 9 days. She went above and beyond to make Ernie, Bailey and us comfortable during their stay and we were provided with regular updates and pictures of their ‘holiday’ with Christie and her family. Would not hesitate to book again and recommend to others, absolute gem of a sitter, thank you again Christie! ⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“This was only the second time I'd left my dog overnight with anyone so I was a bit nervous. My dog Daisy is going through the teenage stage and is also pretty strong but I felt reassured once we met up with Ysobel and her dog. She clearly knew how to handle dogs. I would be very happy to leave Daisy with Ysobel in the future. She obviously had a great time being with Ysobel's dog Tess and would have been happy to stay there. I'd certainly be happy for Daisy to stay with Ysobel again.”
“I am so happy to have found Gemma on Rover! Our 3 month old puppy had the absolute best time with her and learned a new trick too! We’ll definitely be back thank you so much ☺️ 💛”
“Pepper enjoyed her first stay with Emily and her family. They were very patient with her and gave her time to settle in. With Pepper having separation anxiety, I was a little worried about leaving her somewhere new. But didn't need to worry at all as Emily kept me updated throughout her stay. Would definitely recommend Emily & Family to anyone looking for a reliable dog boarders where pooches receive a home from home treatment. Pepper is already forward to her next stay.”
“Rebecca was amazing, we had daily photos and updates and Dexter looked happy and at home. He had lots of walks, playtime and cuddles and we felt happy knowing he was settled while we were away. I would recommend to anyone who has a dog and we have already checked dates for next year.”
