“Shunqi had the best time with Goldie for the weekend and looked after her wonderfully, sending us lots of videos and pictures of her! It was lovely to see she was having a great time, we’ll book her in again!”
“Paul looked after Duggie for two days, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease and allowed me to properly enjoy my birthday surprise without worrying. It’s clear that Paul is very knowledgeable about dogs and understands their behaviour well. Duggie was in safe, capable hands the whole time. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him, and we will definitely be using his services again in the future. THANK YOU PAUL & FAMILY”
“I knew my dogs would be well looked after with Katie and they were, in fact they looked pretty fed up when they came home 😉 Thanks Katie, I have found someone outside of the family I trust completely with my dogs.”
“This was Maple's first time staying with Sally and her family, and we can definitely recommend. Maple can be nervous of new people, but Sally was really gentle and welcoming with her (as well as being flexible for a meet and greet beforehand). And, as a bonus we got some nice updates with photos throughout!”
“Maria was great with communication and we left our dog in good hands for 12 days with Maria when we went abroad for a family holiday. We had the opportunity to meet Maria and her dog Bambi at their home before making the booking to ensure it was a good fit for both sides and to discuss any concerns. Received plenty of photos and updates and on returning home our boy is very happy and has been well looked after, definitely recommend and will use Marias services again if needed”
“Michelle has looked after my dog as if he was her own so friendly and accommodating, Benji has had a lovely 2 week holiday with her. I received regular updates and photos and could see how well he was been looked after and how happy and settled he was. I will definitely use her again an amazing service.”
“Sharron is a lovely person, very caring and just perfect for our much-cherished Labrador. She made him feel at home and he seemed very happy, which was important to us. Highly recommended.”
“Oslo has stayed with Amanda a few times now. He is always very excited to return. He receives great care and Amanda provides updates and photos at least once a day. Would highly recommend.”
“This was our first time using a pet sitter and Matthew and Greta made the whole experience so much easier. They immediately made Beau feel welcome and weren't at all phased by the fact she is a four month old puppy. We received regular pupdates and Beau was really happy there.We have already booked in Beau's next stay with Matthew, Greta and their lovely children.”
“John and his wife went above and beyond looking after Steve. True animal lovers. Steve had an amazing time and so glad we found them to look after him. Can't recommend enough. Will definitely use them again in future.”
“Emily and her son took care of our Lab Nala for 8 days and Nala had a fantastic time, she’s come home and is happy and content with no issues whatsoever, I’d highly recommend Emily and her services ❤️❤️❤️”
“Fabulous! Can’t recommend these guys enough! We sent both our pooches and they had a Brilliant time making new friends and having lots of cuddles and walks etc. One of our dogs had to have an operation whilst we away and I couldn’t have wished for better hands for him to be in in our absence. A class service. Will definitely use again.”
“Anastasia is perfect, Luna absolutely adores her :) It’s not easy for Luna to get used to new people usually but with Anastasia there was an immediate connection and my mind is always at ease when I leave my baby with her.”
“Danielle was fantastic with our doggo Stanley. She was really friendly, easy to communicate with, and clearly great with him. We felt completely at ease leaving Stan in her care and would happily book with her again. Highly recommended!”
“A lovely couple who made sure that they kept Beauty in her comfort zone. They were exceptional at keeping us informed regarding Beauty's welfare. Richard and family did their very best to reduce any anxious behaviours exhibited by our dog. Thank you for the brilliant way in which you allayed both our and our dogs fears. I have no doubt that i will be booing again.”
“Lovely family and really cared for my Iris bedlington terrier. Sent lots of photos which really reassured us as it was the first time we have left her behind and was quite nervous and sad about leaving her. Can't recommend Kirsty and the rest of her wonderful family and will definitely be using their services if and when we next dare go away!”
“Dan was wonderful. He made me feel so at ease about leaving them for the first time. I was sent lots of pictures of them having fun. He’s really knowledgeable about dogs and they definitely had a home from home experience. Will definitely be booking again”
“Jessica and James were outstanding hosts and gave a great impression of how Rover hosts are. We had continuous updates and photos during the day and evening, which was super reassuring for both of us. Maltie persuaded our hosts to allow her to sneak into their bedroom, then jumped onto the bed in the night!! Her favourite place. When collecting Maltie, information was passed back as were all of her belongings. Top star hosts and would definitely use Jessica and James again without any hesitation. Maltie is still very tired, which is good for us. Thank you for looking after Maltie, Jessica and James”
“Vivianne was wonderful with Binky and made her so welcome, really making so much effort for Binky to feel at home. Binky took a while to settle as she is still a giddy puppy but once she got over the initial excitement she enjoyed staying with Vivianne very much. Really safe gardens front and back for dogs and plenty of superb local walks. We would definitely use again and recommend to others”
“Emily was absolutely brilliant. Very polite, respectful and an all around brilliant host for my little doggo. She takes into consideration your needs - I asked for regular photo updates and she didn't fail to do so whatsoever. I would definitely recommend Emily and without a shadow of a doubt will be booking with her again.”

“Very friendly, kind and clearly a cat lover. We felt very confident leaving our cat in Hayley's care; will not hesitate to contact Hayley again when we're planning our next break.”
“Loki and Midnight were in great hands with Julie; she even left them a little present at the end of her visits. Julie came to meet the cats before we went away and I was able to show her where everything was. Would highly recommend and wil definitely be using her again; it was far less stressful for the cats to have someone look after them in their own home and Julie was fantastic and even gave me updates while I was away.”
“We were really happy with the care Cleo received. She was well looked after, and the updates gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We’d be very happy to book Armish again.”
“They looked after Buddy excellently including having to deal with his problem. Kept a close eye on him monitoring his behaviour and took him straight to the vets when he needed it. Kept me updated and gave him his medication. Thanks so much 🙏🏼”
About: Though I never owned a cat, I have provided cat care to friends, family and some booked through Rover on multiple occasions, I am comfortable with administering cat medications, feeding and cleaning litter.
About: Hi! I’m Emma, a lifelong cat lover and proud human to our distinguished senior gentleman, Bean, who we’ve had for the last 14 years. We’ve always had cats in the family, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. As Bean is an indoor cat, I’m very comfortable with litter tray duties, administering medication if needed, and understanding the little quirks and routines cats can have. I’m DBS checked and have recently completed a feline first aid course for extra peace of mind. I also work from home, which allows me to be flexible with visits and availability. I know how important it is to feel your cat is safe, comfortable and cared for while you’re away, so I’d love to provide reliable, caring visits along with updates and photos to help put your mind at ease.
About: Dogs have always been a passion of mine, I have grown up with dogs and dreamed of the day I could have my very own! Whenever I can you’ll find me walking the dogs, playing, training, napping…. I have experience with a variety of animals, hamsters, ferret to cats & dogs, farm animals like sheep & cows, horses too. After recently changing careers I’m now available for any of hours the day and week to accommodate for any busy schedules clients may have & special requirements their pets may need. I have a dog park local too me, at my own cost I pay for this and take the dogs here for a safe and secure location.
About: I’ve cared for family pets for many years and have attended an animal management course for animal welfare and behaviour, which included details of training animals and properly caring for a variety of different animals and pets. I have also volunteered at a dog kennels looking after dogs in kennels whilst their owners were away and I currently work at a dog groomers. I have learned to care for a variety of animals so can provide care for different pets. I am currently at college and have a job so I can fit pet care into anytime on weekends and after 6pm on weekdays. I can also provide pet care during bank holidays and any other time off I have. I can cater to different pets’ needs and follow specific instructions pet owners have for their pets to make sure they have the best care. I will only provide pet care for pets outside of my house as I have a dog and wouldn’t want pets to become stressed by this, also for the sake of my own dog’s wellbeing.
“Brilliant sitter! My cats Lei-Lei and Guo Guo were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I got regular photo updates and came home to everything spotless. You can tell they really love cats — highly recommend!”
About: I have plenty of experience with different animals grooming, meditation dispensing, general day to day entertaining playing around with pets. I would be happy to continue any basic training you have started or would like me to start. I can do some extra activities while looking after your pet, like washing up mess made by your pet, put rubbish bins out and bring back in. Bring letters in if you are way on holidays etc. I have had cats all my life and have looked after pets both energetic who love cuddles and playing around and also pets that just want to chill and watch the world go by. I work in the healthcare sector so I do have an online DBS if you would like any background checks information. I am flexible as I work in the community so have plenty of spare time to both be at home and also to do house calls. I have a large house and garden which is fenced and safe also I live in a semi rural area so plenty of space if your cat likes walks too.

About: Hi, I’m Trista. I live in Wakefield and I’m a caring and reliable cat mum with over three and a half years of experience looking after my own two cats. I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident when they’re away, so I always approach cats with patience, gentleness, and respect. I’m calm, observant, and happy to follow your cat’s usual routine to help them feel safe and relaxed at home.
About: Hi, I’m Poppy I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a shy rescue, or a sweet senior, I tailor my care to fit your dog’s unique needs. Here’s what makes me different: ✅ Puppy Know-How I’m experienced with young pups and their routines — from potty breaks to basic obedience and playtime structure. ✅ Senior Dog TLC Older dogs need patience, gentleness and sometimes meds or mobility support. I’m comfortable giving medication taking slower walks, and making sure senior pups stay cozy and calm. ✅ Reliable, Loving, and Communicative I believe in total transparency and trust — you’ll get regular updates, pics and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. ✅ Personalized Attention No rushed walks or overbooked days — I focus on giving your pet the care and attention they deserve. Whether your dog loves long walks, quiet cuddles or playtime I make sure they feel safe, happy and loved every step of the way. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feeding times, play and check-ins to give each pet the attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon drop-ins or overnight sitting I make sure your pet’s needs come first. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I truly enjoy, every single day. I live in a cozy pet-friendly flat with plenty of space for your dog to relax. While I don’t have a garden, I’m located right by a beautiful lake with walking paths so your pup gets plenty of fresh air, exercise and outdoor time throughout the day. We go on regular walks and I make sure each dog has a comfy spot to rest, play and feel at home indoors. Safety, routine and individual attention are my top priorities — your pet will be loved and well cared for every step of the way.

Also I have dog sat for extended family and friends for all sizes and breeds of dog.

“Our dog has such a lovely time with Amrita and her gorgeous dogs. It’s wonderful to know that she is happy and safe. Their house is gorgeous and they take really good care to make sure all of her needs are met.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since being a little child. From being puppies to adult hood I have the experience and knowledge of how dogs can behave and interact. I have experienced many different situations which has given me the knowledge and skills to be able to overcome any issues effectively. I understand how dogs may react differently depending on the situation and how to manage this. I currently work from home full time 5 days a week on weekdays. This gives me more flexibility regarding my work life balance along with my home life. I also have access to a car. In order to care for pets in the owners home I will get to know the animal and have through interactions with them in order to access their needs. Conversations with the owners will also provide me with more information in order to care for them in the best possible way.
“Kelsie was great. She even took the time to meet up for a little walk before hand to see how my dog was with her lovely border collie. There is a wonderful field just seconds from the house for walks. Highly recommend!”
About: I have 4 years dog care experience. I love to walk and there are some lovely areas around us which your pets can also enjoy. I am able to administer medication if required. I work from home full time so am always around if needed. I already have a dog and we go for walks at least 3 times a day - length of walk is very much dictated by my dog!! We have a fully enclosed garden, with both grassed and paved areas, all sides have high none see through fencing and access off the property is via two secure gates. Inside - all dogs would have access to the utility area, snug and kitchen, where clean fresh water is always available. They will also be able to have their own space if needed.
About: I have previous experience owning and caring for two dogs. Although I do not currently have dogs, this experience has given me a strong understanding of dogs’ daily routines, behavior, and care needs. I am familiar with feeding schedules, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and providing companionship. I am patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always prioritize each dog’s safety and comfort. I carefully follow owners’ instructions and adapt my care to suit different personalities and energy levels. I will treat every dog with kindness, respect, and genuine care. I am currently available 7 days a week . I am flexible with timings and happy to discuss specific schedules and arrangements based on your needs. I have a house with fenced garden, I provide a safe, calm, and caring home environment where pets are treated as part of the family. My home is secure, clean, and free from hazards, and pets are always supervised. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise, medication, and any special requirements.
About: I grew up with a Sheltie and a mixed-breed dog, and through years of living closely with them, I developed a deep understanding of animals' emotional and physical needs. This lifelong bond has shaped the way I care for every pet, treating them with the same love and attention I would give my own. In addition to my own dogs, I've cared for many breeds including Dobermans, Corgis, Poodles, Huskies, and Border Collies, as well as cats. I always aim to create a safe, happy, and loving environment for each pet while their owners are away. Your pets are in experienced, caring hands! I work from home and am available to provide dedicated pet care. Your pets will receive my full attention, with flexible scheduling for walks, visits, and cuddles! There would be no other pets in the my accommodation, ensuring a peaceful environment and avoiding any potential pet conflicts. When staying with pets, I make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and safe - I aim to provide same love and care to your pets as you provided for them. I will stick to their usual routines, from feeding times to favourite toys and sleeping spots. I will also ensure they get plenty of attention, exercise if needed, and, of course, affection, just as if they were my own.
About: My husband and I have looked after dogs for a number of years. These have varied, from puppies to adults, small to large, as well as high energy, confident to more nervous rescue dogs. What their stay looks like, is shaped around the needs of the dogs, their current routines, enrichment activities, exciting walks and any specific requests from their owners. We are passionate about creating an environment where a dog can thrive and develop in a home away from home. We have our own gorgeous pooch called Bonnie. She is very relaxed around other dogs, as she has socialised with dogs both inside and outside the home since we adopted her in 2024. She's very independent and calm in the house, but loves to explore with her fellow dogs when out and about on a walk. We also volunteer at a dog shelter, where we walk, train and lead enrichment activities with Romanian Rescue dogs. Through this experience working with a brilliant dog trainer and head of the charity, we understand that every dog is totally different, therefore, their care plan and routine need to reflect as much and be tailored to their personalities. As a result, we are confident with rescue dogs or those who are anxious and less confident. We typically take the dogs out for a morning walk, which will be roughly an hour. I work full time from home, which allows me to be home all day with the dogs. We will then have a shorter second walk, with playtime and enrichment thrown in! We have a fenced garden, as well as a field two minutes from our house, where dogs have plenty of space to run and play as they wish!
About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a friendly Labrador who is well socialised and used to being around both dogs and cats. Outside of pet care, I organise an annual dog show with the charity Friends of Middleton Park and, this year, I'm also organising a free community dog show for the Belle Isle Gala in partnership with Belle Isle Tenant Management Organisation. I have animal first aid experience and access to veterinary advice and emergency support 24 hours a day, giving you added peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I have my own transport and, at weekends, weather permitting, your dog may enjoy trips to local parks and beauty spots for extra enrichment and exercise. Of course, you'll receive plenty of photos, updates, and messages throughout their stay so you can see just how much fun they're having. When your pet stays with me, they will be treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home environment where your pet's wellbeing is my top priority. I work from home, which means your pet will have plenty of company, supervision, and attention throughout the day. Pets are never left alone for more than two hours, and in most cases are with me almost all of the time. Before the booking, we'll discuss your pet's routine, preferences, dietary requirements, and any special needs to help them settle in as comfortably as possible. During their stay, your pet will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I will stick as closely as possible to their normal routine to help them feel at home. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can see how your pet is getting on and enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I also have animal first aid experience and access to 24/7 veterinary support should any concerns arise. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority. I have a fully fenced garden, giving dogs a secure outdoor space for exercise, play, and toilet breaks. Inside the home, pets are never left without companionship, as I have other friendly pets to keep them company when I’m out. I also use multiple water fountains and automatic feeders, which are monitored and will alert me when levels are low. This means fresh water is always available and feeding routines are followed on schedule, even when I’m not at home for short periods. When out on walks, dogs are always kept on a lead for safety. If appropriate and with owner permission, I also use extendable leads so they can enjoy extra freedom to explore while still remaining secure and under control. As I work from home, pets are supervised for most of the day and are never left alone for more than 2 hours. I maintain a calm, safe environment and follow each pet’s usual routine closely to help them feel settled and secure. Regular updates and photos are provided so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay.
“Thomas is an excellent sitter! He ensures he knows your pets routines, takes the dogs on great walks and sends the most amazing pictures! Maverick always has the best time when he stays with Thomas both for daycare and overnight. Do not hesitate to book!! Thanks Thomas! 🐶”
“I felt totally confident leaving my puppy with Hollie she was welcoming and caring. On picking up my puppy it was clear she had an great day playing with Hollie’s dog and she was settled and bright when I got her home. She was never upset being dropped off and seemed very happy to be with Hollie. I would totally recommend her and would take either of my dogs back if needed. Thank you Hollie and Oscar.”
“Tilly had the best day with Emily & Sunny! She has such a great outdoor space for the pups to play in. Sunny was really welcoming to Tilly (who can be a little bossy!) and they seemed happy playing together when I left. I will definitely be booking with Emily again as she took such good care of Tilly. Thank you!”
About: We have both grown up being surrounded by pets, especially cats and dogs since we was little. We have spent lots of years both looking after and continual training puppies and kittens for friends and family. I've also experienced the latter stages of life and illnesses along the way. We have the perfect setting for all your pets needs and it would truly be a home from home setting. We offer a family service and setting. I work 3 shifts per week and Greta works part time. There is always at least one of us at home so can offer our services 24 hours per day,7 days per week. We have a large house and a lovely secure and fenced garden and we are located right next to a nature reserve which is perfect for lovely long dog walks. Downstairs we have 3 large spaces for all our furry friends to enjoy. We have ample amounts of space for crate training and boarding areas within the family home.
“Jack took time to understand Douglas’s needs and routine which were catered to perfectly! He kept me updated with photos throughout the stay and Douglas was settled and happy with Jack straight away. I’ve already rebooked for a second visit, thanks again!”
“Jenna took care of my dog Sandy for a day on very short notice and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was wonderful with Sandy and I received some lovely photos throughout the day. When I picked Sandy up, she was happy, relaxed and clearly had a great time. I highly recommend Jenna and would definitely book with her again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Sandy! ❤️xx”
“Jessica and James have been looking after Milo a couple of times a week for the past few months, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them more. I’ve already rebooked because I know he’s in the best hands. They genuinely treat Milo as if he’s one of their own, and it’s clear how much they care about him. He absolutely adores their dog, Cookie, and the two of them have the best time together. Every time I pick him up, he comes home happy, content and pleasantly tired after a day full of fun. As a teacher, it’s such a relief to know that Milo is safe, loved and well cared for while I’m at work. Jessica and James regularly send photos and videos throughout the day, which is so reassuring, and they’re always flexible and accommodating with timings. The biggest compliment I can give is how excited Milo gets when he sees them—his tail starts wagging before we’ve even reached the door! That says everything. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of him. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for caring, reliable dog sitters.”

“I would highly recommend Lucia. Very trustworthy. Definitely could see her love for all dogs. I couldn't recommend her enough if you want your dog to feel loved like their own, safe and happy. Incredibly happy with her services.”
About: I have been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. Back in my home country, raised my own dog from a tiny puppy, and he is now a lovely ten-year-old senior dog. Looking after him over all these years has given me valuable hands-on experience caring for older dogs, understanding their slower pace, special health needs and gentle care requirements. 么 I also rescued and cared for six cats while living in China. Looking after this group of rescue pets taught me immense patience, how to help shy, nervous animals feel safe, and how to manage multiple pets with different personalities and needs at the same time. Those wonderful years built my confidence and deep love for every furry friend. Since moving to York in the UK, I now have one friendly, well-socialised one-year-old dog who lives with me at home. He is calm, gentle and happy to meet other dogs. I am home full-time and rarely out of the house for long periods. This means your dog will get constant companionship, frequent daily walks, regular feeding times, plenty of playtime and rest. 1 am also happy to administer medication if needed. I treat every pet that stays with me like a member of my own family. Throughout their booking, I will send you regular photo and text updates, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you are away. I welcome puppies, adult dogs and senior dogs of all temperaments. I am currently not working and stay at home full-time, so I can dedicate plenty of time to look after, play with and walk your dog every single day. I am fully available for pet-boarding services all week with no strict time restrictions. I have rich long-term pet-care experience. I previously cared for six cats and a 10-year-old dog back in my home country. Now I own a one-year-old friendly, well-socialised dog here in the UK. I will closely supervise all interactions between the pets and offer your furry friend a safe, quiet and comfortable home environment.
“Our dog adores Liam, always happy to see him. Liam brings with home many years of living with dogs and academic qualifications, not only is he giving our dog the daytime exercise and attention he needs, but also experience on how to raise and train a puppy. Thank you Liam”
About: I have grown up with a variety of animals my entire life, all varying in ages and sizes. I currently provide pet sitting and walking in addition to my current full time job for friends and family. This includes looking after my sister’s 11 month old puppy and training where possible. I am currently working full time Monday to Friday in a college. With my weekends free, I work from home on Mondays and Fridays which allow me to pet sit on these days, I can do overnight stays so long as I don’t have an event. With my job I sometimes do overtime which allows me to book off additional days for pet sitting should I need to. I prefer looking after pets in the pet owners home as I believe pets deserve to feel at home and safe, what safer space is there for them than a space they live in. I will provide the upmost care and respect in your home, I am also DBS checked
“Would recommend Danielle, she came to meet me and Dottie before the first dog walk. Everything went well on the day and I would definitely be happy to leave Dottie with Danielle again. Thank you.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young, having 3 family dogs in the home. I love the outdoors and walking loads too for the more adventurous dogs too! I work hybrid so have the flexibility to WFH meaning lots of cuddles and toilet breaks, plenty of walks and engagement. I also work half days on Friday so have the availability to walk on Friday afternoons too. I am happy to view homes before dog sitting and understand the environment in which your pet lives in, will require the basic needs of your dog before hand and learn about their habits (no off lead etc)
“Julie has been a god send, I used this service due to being out of action after an operation. We did 2 visits to get to know my 2 dogs then a daily walk every day this week, my dogs took to Julie so well and were excited to see her every day. I cannot recommend her highly enough, great peace of mind, and a bonus is that she’s a lovely lady, thank you so much.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and currently have two family dogs at my mum’s house, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my day-to-day life. During secondary school, I volunteered at Tia Rescue in Doncaster, helping care for dogs with different personalities and needs. While living in Canada, I also provided dog sitting for guests staying at Kananaskis Mountain Lodge, caring for dogs while their owners were out exploring or relaxing. I’m patient, reliable and genuinely love spending time with animals — whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles or simply keeping them company and comfortable while you’re away. I currently can’t have a dog of my own where I live, so this is honestly the next best thing for me. I love getting to spend time with different dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe and well cared for. I currently work part-time at a coffee shop, so my schedule is flexible and gives me good availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins and pet sitting. I enjoy getting outdoors more and love spending time with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m happy to keep owners updated with messages and photos so you know your dog is safe and happy while you’re away. I live in a home with a fully fenced garden where dogs can safely play and relax. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and understand how important routine, patience and reassurance are when caring for someone else’s pet. I’ll always make sure dogs feel comfortable, well looked after and treated like part of the family while in my care.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a young child. I’ve dealt with dogs with medical issues, mobility issues and senior dogs. I love taking them for walks and bonding with them.

About: I had my own Labrador for 9 years and went through the fun of training him, enjoying the outdoors with him. Also medicating him as well, whether that be being able to get him to take tablets or syringe fluid in the mouth. This is my full time job and while my availability throughout the week is bookable. During the weekends I’ll be tailored with my bookings. When it comes to dog walking I offer 1:1 walks. Therefore you know your dog will get all the attention.

About: Hi, I’m Poppy I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a shy rescue, or a sweet senior, I tailor my care to fit your dog’s unique needs. Here’s what makes me different: ✅ Puppy Know-How I’m experienced with young pups and their routines — from potty breaks to basic obedience and playtime structure. ✅ Senior Dog TLC Older dogs need patience, gentleness and sometimes meds or mobility support. I’m comfortable giving medication taking slower walks, and making sure senior pups stay cozy and calm. ✅ Reliable, Loving, and Communicative I believe in total transparency and trust — you’ll get regular updates, pics and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. ✅ Personalized Attention No rushed walks or overbooked days — I focus on giving your pet the care and attention they deserve. Whether your dog loves long walks, quiet cuddles or playtime I make sure they feel safe, happy and loved every step of the way. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feeding times, play and check-ins to give each pet the attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon drop-ins or overnight sitting I make sure your pet’s needs come first. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I truly enjoy, every single day. I live in a cozy pet-friendly flat with plenty of space for your dog to relax. While I don’t have a garden, I’m located right by a beautiful lake with walking paths so your pup gets plenty of fresh air, exercise and outdoor time throughout the day. We go on regular walks and I make sure each dog has a comfy spot to rest, play and feel at home indoors. Safety, routine and individual attention are my top priorities — your pet will be loved and well cared for every step of the way.

“Shunqi had the best time with Goldie for the weekend and looked after her wonderfully, sending us lots of videos and pictures of her! It was lovely to see she was having a great time, we’ll book her in again!”
“Paul looked after Duggie for two days, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease and allowed me to properly enjoy my birthday surprise without worrying. It’s clear that Paul is very knowledgeable about dogs and understands their behaviour well. Duggie was in safe, capable hands the whole time. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him, and we will definitely be using his services again in the future. THANK YOU PAUL & FAMILY”
“This was Maple's first time staying with Sally and her family, and we can definitely recommend. Maple can be nervous of new people, but Sally was really gentle and welcoming with her (as well as being flexible for a meet and greet beforehand). And, as a bonus we got some nice updates with photos throughout!”
“Sharron is a lovely person, very caring and just perfect for our much-cherished Labrador. She made him feel at home and he seemed very happy, which was important to us. Highly recommended.”
“Oslo has stayed with Amanda a few times now. He is always very excited to return. He receives great care and Amanda provides updates and photos at least once a day. Would highly recommend.”
“This was our first time using a pet sitter and Matthew and Greta made the whole experience so much easier. They immediately made Beau feel welcome and weren't at all phased by the fact she is a four month old puppy. We received regular pupdates and Beau was really happy there.We have already booked in Beau's next stay with Matthew, Greta and their lovely children.”
“John and his wife went above and beyond looking after Steve. True animal lovers. Steve had an amazing time and so glad we found them to look after him. Can't recommend enough. Will definitely use them again in future.”
“Fabulous! Can’t recommend these guys enough! We sent both our pooches and they had a Brilliant time making new friends and having lots of cuddles and walks etc. One of our dogs had to have an operation whilst we away and I couldn’t have wished for better hands for him to be in in our absence. A class service. Will definitely use again.”
“Anastasia is perfect, Luna absolutely adores her :) It’s not easy for Luna to get used to new people usually but with Anastasia there was an immediate connection and my mind is always at ease when I leave my baby with her.”
“Danielle was fantastic with our doggo Stanley. She was really friendly, easy to communicate with, and clearly great with him. We felt completely at ease leaving Stan in her care and would happily book with her again. Highly recommended!”
“Dan was wonderful. He made me feel so at ease about leaving them for the first time. I was sent lots of pictures of them having fun. He’s really knowledgeable about dogs and they definitely had a home from home experience. Will definitely be booking again”
“Vivianne was wonderful with Binky and made her so welcome, really making so much effort for Binky to feel at home. Binky took a while to settle as she is still a giddy puppy but once she got over the initial excitement she enjoyed staying with Vivianne very much. Really safe gardens front and back for dogs and plenty of superb local walks. We would definitely use again and recommend to others”
“Martin took great care of my dog who had been unwell the week before. It was nice to see photos of Paddy on his walks, and lounging on the sofa. There is often mention of separation anxiety dogs experience. However Martin was sensitive to the fact that my separation anxiety was quite severe. I am blessed for having a dog who can make himself at home on any sofa available. 😀 I highly recommend Martin who has years of experience with dogs.”
“Coco had a lovely time with Deirdre and Liam. Deirdre was quick to respond to messages, and uploaded lots of photos to keep us updated. We would be very happy to leave Coco with them again.”
“Donald had a great time with Sian and her family and will be going back any time I’m away and they are free to have him, Updated with pictures and news how he was doing throughout the week”
“Emma was absolutely perfect – if I could give more than 5 stars, I would! She was so lovely and friendly, and communication was effortless from start to finish. She sent us regular photo and video updates to let us know Charlie was okay, which really put our minds at ease. Emma and her family were amazing with Charlie – I’m fairly sure she would have preferred to stay with them than come back home! It was clear she was well cared for and loved. We honestly couldn’t have wished for more. Thank you so much, Emma – we’ll definitely be using you again!”
“Domino had a fantastic experience staying with Laura and her family. Laura kept us updated on Domino, with photos and he looked so relaxed and contented, it made our time away more enjoyable. Domino enjoyed walks with Laura's dogs in perfect surroundings and quickly became part of the family. We look forward to using Laura again. Thank you Laura”
“Ewan and Katy looked after Charlie again, they are so caring and we know that Charlie is in safe hands. I would suggest that they would be a perfect sitter for your furry friend... only when I don't need to book....!!! Charlie settles with them so quickly... thank you.”
