“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.”
“Teddy was happy and wore out at the end he defiantly had a lot of fun playing with her child and them in the garden. And sent us pictures of him throughout the stay. We Would recommend her (:”
“Karen was an amazing dog sitter, so lovely and could tell they made our dog very comfortable. Really took the time to get to know our dog and what helps them feel safe and happy. Would highly recommend.”
“Jack has been absolutely amazing with cassie. Lots of photos and videos to put my mind at ease as I was nervous about leaving her. She is a rescue who we've only had 2 months and she has had a really rough start in life. Was worried she would think shes being abandoned again. She has had lots of walks, cuddles and taken over his bed! Not even home from our holiday yet but already planning her next visit to him along with her big sister. 100% would recommend Jack to look after your fur babies!”
“We were very worried about leaving our 2 babies for the first time but Ebony and Reuben were absolutely amazing! Our dogs can be anxious but Ebony and Reuben’s calming nature really helped them to settle into their new environment really quickly. During our holiday we had regular updates and photos, communication was great which put us at ease so we could enjoy ourselves without worry. We can’t thank them enough, we would highly recommend and will certainly book again. Our dogs had a great time and came home a lot more relaxed than before. Thank you Ebony and Reuben :)”
“Brilliant communication throughout. Our dog bonded with Jack immediately and I could tell she felt safe. She is an anxious dog and the fact that she was happy in all the photos and videos Jack sent says a lot about how secure she felt. She enjoyed playing with the dogs there and hopefully the time spent with them will have helped her for some future interactions with other dogs. (We don’t usually get that opportunity to mix with other dogs). Would highly recommend and will be booking with Jack in the future.”
“Megan was amazing, this was a hard leave for me due to Tilly having a few health issues over the last few weeks. I chose Megan due to Tilly been the only animal there. Tilly was so happy when she came home I was updated daily on her feeding been happy as well has her medication and if she had any seizures. Thank you again Megan”
“My doggo had a great time boarding with Sára! Would happily recommend. She gave lots of updates with many pics, was punctual and took care of his meds awell. He was also sad to see her leave lol, so thats a good indication of their time together.”
“Olivia has been great from start to finish and we have been so pleased with how happy Ronnie has been with her! Great communication throughout and clearly a big dog fan! We have a second booking in a few weeks and I’m sure there will be more to follow :)”
“Again we used d nicoleta as our sitter and once again we were blown away by how much of a perfect service she provided, Constant updates and videos, very loving and attentive to our dog. We would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. We certainly have found our sitter of dita and will continue to use in the future. Thanks again for your help”
“Danielle and Ryan are lovely, friendly, enthusiastic and kind people who our dog, Lucy, instantly connected with. Our premeet at their home and local park filled me with confidence they would provide a safe and happy stay. They kindly sent messages and photos through the stay, including adventures out in the Peaks! Lucy clearly had a great time, and I have already rebooked!”
“We honestly couldn’t recommend Maria enough! From the moment we met, we felt completely at ease leaving our dog in her care. Maria were so caring and attentive and kept us updated throughout, which gave us complete peace of mind. Arthur was so happy when we picked him up and it was clear he had been well looked after and given lots of love and attention. It’s such a relief knowing you have someone you can genuinely trust with your dog and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Maria again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him — we really appreciate it! 🐾❤️”
“Sally is a brilliant dog sitter. My dog is very nervous around new people but after recieving our first photo update, I could see how relaxed and happy she was with Sally. Thank you for taking good care of my pooch ❤️”
“Thank you Leah, for being the perfect combination of enthusiasm and competence. Tess is very lucky to have been in your care. Great to hear that all the signs of contentment were visible, am sure she enjoyed her 'holiday' too 🙂 We loved getting the regular photo updates (you take great photo's too!)”
About: I have had experience with cats and dogs on and off my whole life. I had a cat (Tinkerbell) when I was younger and more recently my brother and sister in law gained three beautiful dogs ( two cavapoos and a dachshund) a tortoise called Sheldon and 5 chickens. I have helped look after all these for them and I absolutely love it .I would love my own dog but can't at present due to work/family commitments. However I would love to take care of one in my free time. I live alone majority of the time, but co parent my children. The availability I offer is based on work and my child free days. My hobbies are walking, reading and spending time with my partner and friends. Im Very excited and can't wait to meet your beloved doggies ☺️ I work from home on a Thursday and Friday so these and the weekend would be the days I would be mostly available. I have a lunch break and will work downstairs so I can attend to the animals needs and extra cuddles ☺️ I own my home and have no pets currently. I share custody of my three daughters but the availability will be based on when I don't have them. I have a fenced garden and plenty of indoor space for them. I'm not a ornament/trinket kind of gal so they have pretty much free reign downstairs and outside.
“Elvis loved his stay at Armans. We had regular updates and Elvis and Benji got on really well. Arman was really easy to communicate with and we’d be happy to use their service again. Thanks so much”
“Demi was brilliant sent photos and a video of Kia my fur baby she made herself comfortable on the sofa with Demi husband and made my time leaving with them so easy Kia got sulks on with me when I got her home because she had such a good time playing with Demi dog and cats. Definitely recommend Demi to any dog owners who after leave there pets whilst they are away. Thank you Demi I think Kia would like to come back for another good time.”
“From the very beginning, Isabel and Spencer were kind, reassuring and genuinely caring. They took the time to understand Rock’s needs and treated him with so much love and patience, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was great for Rock to have the opportunity to stay with another dog. He and Sonny got on really well, and it was lovely to know he had such good company during his stay. We’re sure Rock had a wonderful little holiday of his own! Thank you both for looking after him as if he were part of your family. We are so grateful for everything you did and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for exceptional dog sitters. We hope Rock gets to see you all again soon!”

About: Hi! My name is Tereza, and I’m a lifelong cat lover who works from home — which means I can give your cat the time, attention, and care they truly deserve. I have experience looking after cats of all ages and personalities, from playful kittens to older cats who need a gentler touch. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can stick to your cat’s exact routine, provide regular playtime, keep their space tidy, and make sure they get plenty of affection (if they want it!). I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I treat every cat as if they were my own, and my goal is always to provide a safe, comfortable, and happy environment for them while you’re gone. I am currently a proud mummy of a gorgeous ginger boy 😺
“Georgia was absolutely brilliant and we would highly recommend her. She checked on the pussks for each visit and let us know where they were in the house when she visited, washed up their food bowls (even though we said to just stick them in the dishwasher) and even removed the poo bags (even though we said to stick them in the kitchen bin). All in all, it was wonderful to come home to a clean, fragrant house and two very happy, well looked-after pussks.”
“Mason was incredibly helpful, stepping in to take care of our cats on short notice while we dealt with a family emergency. He was very capable and gave us regular updates to let us know the cats were fine which was very important to us as we didn’t have the mental space to be worrying about them as well. Our cats are a little skittish, and he managed that just fine, making sure that they were well cared for.”
“Izzy is a fantastic cat sitter, Emmett took to her immediately which is no small feat! I got regular updates and photos which allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying about him. If you need someone reliable to take care of your furry family I’d highly recommend booking Izzy. ”

Sent me photos of both and even cleaned up after one had a accident during that heatwave last week was so kind of him. Blade and layla love him only met several times but it will be a on going thing several times whilst im out working but he was brilliant with them.”
“Kirsty looked after my little one while I was away for a few days for the first time after moving house. She was fantastic, gained the trust of Sayang and was very communicative, keeping me updated with pictures every day.”
About: As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your cat with someone you trust. I'm experienced with feeding, playtime, litter care, and sticking to their usual routine, and I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.
About: A Lifetime of Cat Love. Your Baby, Cared For & Captured. My love for cats isn't just a job it's a lifetime habit. Growing up, our home was always filled with purring companions, teaching me the unique language and needs of every feline friend. When you choose me, your cat isn't just a client; they become one of my own. I believe in attentive, personalized care: engaging in their favorite games, providing daily brushing for comfort and bonding, and offering all the snuggles or respectful space they desire. As a passionate photographer, I include complimentary photo updates with every visit. You'll receive beautiful, candid snapshots of your contented kitty, so you never miss a moment and can see firsthand how they're thriving. You can relax knowing your beloved baby is in safe, experienced, and loving hands. Let's connect so I can learn all about your cat's unique personality
About: I love cats and currently have two cute kittens (who sometimes don’t mind wearing Christmas hats as you can see in the photo!). I’ve previously enjoyed a family cat and always enjoy having them around.
About: I am a huge dog lover and have been taking care of them professionally for the last few years but have had pups my entire life. I have lots of experience of walking and caring for all different kinds of doggos, big and small, with various needs and personalities. I promise to care for your fur babies as I do my own, with lots of love and play and will give them a home away from home where they can relax and feel comfortable. I’m currently fully available for walks any day of the week. Whether this be for a regular same time walk or a last minute one off. I would treat your pets just like I treat my own, with lots of love and play. I am used to caring for dogs of all ages, I recently lost my Peaches at the age of 12, she had a push chair and needed extra time on her walks. Whilst my Pru at age 3 and Folly at 10 months are both full of energy and zoomies.
About: I’ve always had cats, always had dogs all my life. If I’m honest they help me, support me and generally make me happy. I’m recently retired, doing some dog walking and boarding under the Proper Dog Walking Co. I’ve recently started the Proper Cat Feeding Service. The use of the word proper is a bit tongue in cheek and relates to something my dad used to say about dogs needing a proper walk. I have two Main Coons and 3 dogs. I take their care seriously and would like to help where I can.

About: I was raised in farmhouse where we used to have many animals. Pets were treated as proper family members, not only addition to our house. As a dog lover, I would like to provide real, loving home for your little fella while you are away, so you can enjoy your stay without any worries. PS. your dog will enjoy it too ! 😊 Currently, I stay at home with our little boy, so we have plenty of time to take care of new quest in our home. Me and little Jacob would love to have some company to fill our day with walks and play time. I am available 7 days a week. We have got big, properly fenced garden and plenty of free time- that's the best combination 😊If you have got any questions, please feel free to ask.
About: Jack has over six years of hands on experience working with dogs, spanning professional boarding in luxury kennels, responsible dog breeding, and advanced canine behaviourism. Holding a Diploma in Animal Management, he combines practical animal care with evidence based training to support health, welfare, and optimal behaviour. His approach integrates structured management, enrichment, and tailored training programs to ensure every dog thrives in a safe, loving environment. I (and my team) bring practical, canine knowledge to every interaction, from boarding to training. A small, professional team ensures personalised attention, clean facilities, and timely updates. I provide daily care and supervision with hands-on expertise from my dedicated team, backed by a spacious and secure outdoor garden where dogs can run, explore, and burn energy safely. Our safe and secure facilities feature comprehensive safety measures and monitored play at all times. We prioritise socialisation opportunities, offering regular, supervised interactions with well-trained, neutral dogs that help bring out your dog’s confidence and sociability, ensuring your dog has the time of their life while receiving expert care.
“I had to go into the office today & Ellie had Buster for me. My boy has come home very, very happy & tired from a lovely long walk & lots of love & fusses. Thank you, Ellie, you are a total star! And I will absolutely call on you again ????⭐?⭐?”
About: I grew up with a dog as our family pet, and trained and looked after her as I became a young adult. Although we don't have a dog as a family pet now, I often care for and walk family and friends dogs (especially when they go on holiday). I am the father of an active family (two teenage daughters) who love being outdoors, going for regular walks in the countryside, so having a dog to care for would be the perfect fit for me. Currently, I work from home every day of the week, so timing will not be an issue for me. I can be flexible and work around your needs. I do not currently own a dog. We care for friends and family dogs at our house from time to time. We do have a pet Lizard!
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with both large and small breeds, from German Shepherds to little terriers. I currently have a 6-month-old Sprocker Spaniel, so I’m very familiar with the energy, enthusiasm, and affection that dogs bring into our lives. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely love, whether that’s taking them on long walks, playing with them, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and understand how important it is for owners to know their pet is in safe, caring hands. Alongside caring for healthy, active dogs, I also have experience looking after senior dogs with mobility issues, ensuring they receive the patience, support, and extra care they need. I’ve cared for rescue dogs, helped build confidence in dogs struggling with social anxiety, and supported dogs with medical conditions, including epilepsy, always following owners’ guidance and routines closely. My experience with dogs of different ages, temperaments, and needs has helped me become adaptable, attentive, and confident in providing the individual care each dog deserves. I work from home three days a week, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the day. I have my own dog, so caring for pets is already a big part of my daily routine. We enjoy three walks a day (one long walk and two shorter walks), along with playtime, training sessions, enrichment activities, and lots of cuddles. I like to pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy levels, and mood so I can tailor their day to what they enjoy most and what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment where pets are treated like part of the family. I take the time to get to know each dog’s routine, preferences, and needs to help them feel secure and settled. Whether caring for pets in my home or in their owner’s home, I ensure they receive regular exercise, playtime, mental stimulation, fresh water, feeding according to instructions, and plenty of affection. I always monitor how a dog is feeling and adapt activities to suit their energy level and comfort, while maintaining a safe and trustworthy environment at all times.
About: Our Labrador Benji has come such a long way! When we rescued him two years ago, he was anxious and struggled with trust. Today, he's the sweetest, most playful boy you'll meet. His journey taught us patience, compassion, and what dogs truly need to thrive. We'll give your dog that same dedication—plus a built-in playmate who never says no to a game of fetch! As a work-from-home couple, we're around virtually all day—your pup will never be alone! We welcome guests on weekdays and weekends. Benji gets two daily walks to our local park, and your dog will join us. Off-lead dogs can enjoy fetch and play sessions together, while dogs who prefer staying on-lead will get quality walking time and gentle companionship at their own pace. Between walks, we will be relaxing at home with access to our fenced garden as well as treats! As we work from home, there is always someone around. The dogs will have access to our fenced garden for their needs or to play. Plenty of toys and napping spots are available too!
About: I am a caring, responsible and trustworthy animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable while in my care. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cuddles and regular updates for owners, so you always know your pet is in good hands. I am patient with nervous pets, energetic with playful pets, and gentle with older pets who need extra care. Your pet will be treated with love, attention and kindness just like family. I take pet safety seriously and always aim to create a calm, clean and positive environment. I have a flexible schedule and can provide loving, reliable care throughout the week and weekends. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare and boarding. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise and care during their stay with me. I provide a safe, clean and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication and routines. Pets are supervised carefully, treated with kindness, and their safety is always my top priority.
“Erin helped me out very last minute by looking after Manny while I had to attend a medical appointment. She did a great job adapting and taking care of him on a hot day, thinking about his safety and comfort. He had a wonderful time and it was very reassuring. Absolutely recommend. She is knowledgeable with rescues and sensitive dogs.”
“I honestly can’t thank Stacey enough for the amazing care she gave Ozzy while I was at work. Leaving your dog with someone else can be worrying, but she made me feel completely at ease from day one. Stacey kept me updated with lots of lovely photos and messages throughout the day, so I always knew Ozzy was happy and having the best time. It was obvious she cared for him as if he were her own, giving him so much love, attention, and care. The biggest sign of all was on the second day—Ozzy couldn’t wait to get back and actually ran straight to her house with his tail wagging! That told me everything I needed to know about how comfortable and happy he was with her. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stacey to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy, Ozzy.”

About: Hi there! I’m Emilie, a huge animal lover who’s excited to look after your pet while you’re away. I’ve got plenty of experience with animals of all sizes and breeds, so I’ll make sure your pet gets all the attention, exercise, and care they need. I have a toddler and a couple of cats at home aswell as my dog coffee, so it’s important that the dogs I look after are comfortable around them. I’m currently a stay at home mum, so I’ll be around all day to spend quality time with your pets, whether it’s for a visit, playtime, or an overnight stay. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away. I’m currently a stay at home mum so I’m available any time however my son will be with me so can only take on animals who are happy with children. He’s 2 years old and lives with cats and a dog currently so is very well behaved with them. I have a XXL crate which I don’t need to use for my dog anymore which can be used. I have a female dog who loves other dogs. I also have 2 spayed female cats and a toddler.
About: I bring more than just love for animals, I bring a lifetime of experience. Having shared my life with both cats and dogs for over 40 years, I’ve cared for pets through every stage, from their first clumsy steps to their golden years. Friends and family always count on me as their go-to pet sitter when they travel or host guests, because they know their fur-babies will be treated like my own. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddles on the sofa, or gentle care for older pets, I offer reliable, thoughtful, and genuine companionship. When I’m not buried in books, I’m happiest spending time with furry friends. Since I only work part-time in academia, I have plenty of free hours to dedicate to walks, cuddles, and check-ins. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that means early-morning walkies, evening playtime, or cozy overnight care. In my home, pets get the full “grandma’s house” treatment; cozy, relaxed, and just a little bit spoiled. They’re welcome everywhere: on the sofa, on the bed, or curled up at my feet while I read. I have a little backyard where we can enjoy fresh air and shade, and just a short walk away are the parks, perfect for ball games, stick-chasing, or gentle strolls. Cats are just as welcome here, whether they prefer a quiet nap in a sunny spot, brushing sessions, or a bit of playful pouncing. When I care for pets in the owner’s home, I make sure to keep their routine consistent and their environment safe, as if you’d never left. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, feeding, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, I treat every pet as though they were my own, with love, respect, and lots of attention.
About: I am a new addition to the sitters on ROVER however, I own a dog myself and have always been really good with animals - especially dogs.

About: I've loved animals since I was a child and have always naturally gravitated towards spending time with cats and dogs. I'm reliable, calm and comfortable around animals of all temperaments. I've recently started working from home, which can be quite solitary, so this feels like a great opportunity to combine my love of animals with getting outdoors more and spending time caring for pets. I'm responsible, attentive and genuinely enjoy the companionship and routine that animals bring. As I work from home, I have a flexible daily routine which makes it easy for me to incorporate pet care throughout the day. I'm already used to taking regular breaks from screen time, so walks, visits, or check-ins with pets would fit naturally into my schedule. My work setup means I'm able to provide consistent attention and keep pets company during the day, rather than being away for long hours. Pet care fits very comfortably alongside my lifestyle and adds something active and positive to my week. I prioritise creating a calm, safe and comfortable environment for pets, tailored to their individual needs and routines. In my home, I have a secure fenced garden area which provides a safe outdoor space for supervised exercise and fresh air. I also have an unoccupied upstairs room which can be used as a quiet, separate space if a pet needs somewhere calm to rest. If caring for pets in an owner's home, I would follow their established routines closely to ensure consistency and minimise stress for the animal. This would incude feeding schedules, walks, playtime and any specific instructions around behaviour, medication or comfort routines. In both settings, I focus on building trust, keeping pets comfortable, and maintaining a consistent routine so they feel secure and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I grew up in a household with both dogs and cats, and like I always say, a house without them is not a home. They are our "other" children. You can rely on me to love your pets as if they were my own, to care for them, play with them, walk them, bathe them, brush them, give them their medication. My current work is from home, and part time, so I feel like I have all the time in the world, and not much to fill it with, now that my child is grown up. My garden is spacious and fenced, and inside my home pets are allowed everywhere. Unless otherwise specified by the owner, they sleep on my bed, lay on my couch, play with my child's old plushies.
About: Luxury home boarding with personal care Your dog will enjoy a stress-free stay in a loving home environment with plenty of attention, enrichment, exercise, and comfort. We take time to understand every dog’s personality, routine, and needs to make them feel completely at home. I'm available for boarding each day, I have been working with dogs for the past 12 years.

I keep routines as close to home as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest, to help dogs feel relaxed and comfortable during their stay. Dogs receive daily exercise, enrichment activities, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection and supervision throughout the day. I only take one families dogs at a time so each dog gets personalised attention and care.

I always aim to provide a calm, stress-free environment where dogs can settle in happily and safely. Regular updates, photos, and communication are provided for owners so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’m experienced with walking everything from tiny Pugs to energetic Labradors, and I tailor every walk to each dog’s breed, age, health, and the weather. Some dogs love long, lively adventures, while others prefer a gentle plod around the block — I’m happy to match their pace. I have many years of experience caring for flat‑nosed breeds and understand their specific needs, especially around breathing and temperature. I also have hands‑on experience boarding a Labrador while she was in heat, so I’m confident managing dogs with additional care requirements. I’m currently available throughout the week, and I offer boarding both midweek and at weekends. Whether you need quick toilet‑break visits or long, enriching walks, I can fit into your dog’s routine and provide exactly what they need. I have a dog‑free, child‑free home, which means a calm and predictable environment for your dog. Although I don’t have a garden, I take dogs out multiple times a day for toilet breaks in addition to their walks, so they get plenty of chances to stretch their legs and feel comfortable. In your home, I’ll follow the exact routine you set — you know what works best for your dog, and I’m here to keep things consistent and stress‑free.
“I cannot recommend Millie enough. My cockapoo loves going to hers every Friday .She takes such good care of him. Have a fantastic Christmas Millie, Benji's looking forward to seeing you again in 2026. Xx”
“Anna & Liam were absolutely great with Molly. It was her first time staying with Anna & Liam, & i’m always a little anxious when leaving Molly with someone new, but Anna & Liam put my mind at ease by sending updates & pictures throughout the day with Molly. She was tired out when Liam kindly dropped her back home......a tired dog is a happy dog! Thanks again to the both of you for taking care of Molly! We will be seeing you again very soon 😊”

Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As a pet owner myself, I plan my day around making sure my pets are fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention and enrichment. This makes it easy for me to fit caring for other pets into my schedule. I always follow each pet owner’s routine and instructions to make sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, ensuring they have fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise and playtime. I have had previous experience working in a family run kennels working with a range of breeds and temperaments. As I’m currently looking for my next job opportunity, I have a flexible schedule and excellent availability, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. This means I can be reliable, accommodate a variety of booking times where possible, and ensure your pets are never rushed during visits.
“We’ve recently started a weekly walk with Rosalind. We received a report card of how Ellie got on along with a picture! We feel more at ease now that Ellie can be left whilst we are at work and that Rosalind will take care of her :)”

About: I am a huge dog lover and have been taking care of them professionally for the last few years but have had pups my entire life. I have lots of experience of walking and caring for all different kinds of doggos, big and small, with various needs and personalities. I promise to care for your fur babies as I do my own, with lots of love and play and will give them a home away from home where they can relax and feel comfortable. I’m currently fully available for walks any day of the week. Whether this be for a regular same time walk or a last minute one off. I would treat your pets just like I treat my own, with lots of love and play. I am used to caring for dogs of all ages, I recently lost my Peaches at the age of 12, she had a push chair and needed extra time on her walks. Whilst my Pru at age 3 and Folly at 10 months are both full of energy and zoomies.
About: I've taken care of my own dogs both rescue dogs over the last 5 years one a staffy the other a German shepered was not easy at first but we got there both fun loving beautiful dogs now before these 2 I had no experience so had to learn as I was going along and picking tips up along the way and learn things but dogs become my passion. Im currently just been put out of work so would be available full time and would be something I'd love to do all the time instead of factory work ect I've loved animals ever since owning them and looking after others would be a dream. I live in a flat so be best to visit your home and already have 2 big dogs so I wouldn't be able to have pets here .
“Alex was very generous during our first walk and meet-and-greet. He took the time to listen carefully to Fred’s needs and to the type of training we want him to continue with. It’s clear that Alex is confident working with large and power breeds. We will definitely continue booking walks with him, and so far we are very satisfied.”
About: I’ve had dogs of one sort or another all my life. They have been my constant source of support, company and joy. Now retired after years working from home I am walking dogs for those that need help and support. I am now retired, after years of working from home and looking after the family’s various dogs, cats and assorted weird and wonderful pets. As a retiree, I really don’t have a schedule. As always my dogs dictate my day and we try to be flexible with each other. I really am free to meet the needs of my customers and will always negotiate a way to help. My dogs and cats share my home. I keep them fed and watered and cared for and loved. I consider them my friends and family. I will treat your animals with the same care and consideration.
About: I’ve grown up with animals and currently have one dog and three cats, so caring for pets is just part of my everyday life. I’m used to the little messes, the different personalities, and the routines that come with them, and I genuinely enjoy it. Being around animals feels natural to me, and I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable handling whatever comes up. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I’ve recently graduated from university and am currently based at home, which means I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout most of the week and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets, whether that’s regular check-ins, longer stays, or last-minute needs. While I’m not able to board pets in my own home, I’m very happy to care for them in the place they feel safest in your home. I understand how important it is for pets to stay in their usual environment and routine, especially when their owners are away. I can stay in your home to provide consistent care and companionship, or carry out regular check-ins to make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and doing well. I’ll always treat your home and your pets with respect, and make sure you feel updated and reassured while you’re away.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover who has grown up surrounded by both cats and dogs, giving me plenty of experience understanding different personalities, behaviours, and care needs. I have regularly looked after friends’ pets, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship while they are away. Living in an area with lots of parks and green spaces, I enjoy spending time outdoors and have years of experience walking dogs in all types of weather. I believe every pet deserves plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and patience, and I always strive to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I am committed to providing reliable and attentive care tailored to their individual needs. I’d love to help look after your pet :) I currently work most weekends away at face painting gigs, as well at training Kick Boxing most evenings for a couple of hours. I am a University student but I am back home for the summer. As a pet sitter, I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I stick to their usual routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m confident with both cats and dogs and love getting to know each pet’s personality. Whether it’s a walk, some play, or just company and cuddles, I always give them attention and care while respecting their space. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and loved, and give owners peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

“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.”
“Jack has been absolutely amazing with cassie. Lots of photos and videos to put my mind at ease as I was nervous about leaving her. She is a rescue who we've only had 2 months and she has had a really rough start in life. Was worried she would think shes being abandoned again. She has had lots of walks, cuddles and taken over his bed! Not even home from our holiday yet but already planning her next visit to him along with her big sister. 100% would recommend Jack to look after your fur babies!”
“We were very worried about leaving our 2 babies for the first time but Ebony and Reuben were absolutely amazing! Our dogs can be anxious but Ebony and Reuben’s calming nature really helped them to settle into their new environment really quickly. During our holiday we had regular updates and photos, communication was great which put us at ease so we could enjoy ourselves without worry. We can’t thank them enough, we would highly recommend and will certainly book again. Our dogs had a great time and came home a lot more relaxed than before. Thank you Ebony and Reuben :)”
“Brilliant communication throughout. Our dog bonded with Jack immediately and I could tell she felt safe. She is an anxious dog and the fact that she was happy in all the photos and videos Jack sent says a lot about how secure she felt. She enjoyed playing with the dogs there and hopefully the time spent with them will have helped her for some future interactions with other dogs. (We don’t usually get that opportunity to mix with other dogs). Would highly recommend and will be booking with Jack in the future.”
“Megan was amazing, this was a hard leave for me due to Tilly having a few health issues over the last few weeks. I chose Megan due to Tilly been the only animal there. Tilly was so happy when she came home I was updated daily on her feeding been happy as well has her medication and if she had any seizures. Thank you again Megan”
“Olivia has been great from start to finish and we have been so pleased with how happy Ronnie has been with her! Great communication throughout and clearly a big dog fan! We have a second booking in a few weeks and I’m sure there will be more to follow :)”
“We honestly couldn’t recommend Maria enough! From the moment we met, we felt completely at ease leaving our dog in her care. Maria were so caring and attentive and kept us updated throughout, which gave us complete peace of mind. Arthur was so happy when we picked him up and it was clear he had been well looked after and given lots of love and attention. It’s such a relief knowing you have someone you can genuinely trust with your dog and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Maria again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him — we really appreciate it! 🐾❤️”
“Sally is a brilliant dog sitter. My dog is very nervous around new people but after recieving our first photo update, I could see how relaxed and happy she was with Sally. Thank you for taking good care of my pooch ❤️”
About: I have had experience with cats and dogs on and off my whole life. I had a cat (Tinkerbell) when I was younger and more recently my brother and sister in law gained three beautiful dogs ( two cavapoos and a dachshund) a tortoise called Sheldon and 5 chickens. I have helped look after all these for them and I absolutely love it .I would love my own dog but can't at present due to work/family commitments. However I would love to take care of one in my free time. I live alone majority of the time, but co parent my children. The availability I offer is based on work and my child free days. My hobbies are walking, reading and spending time with my partner and friends. Im Very excited and can't wait to meet your beloved doggies ☺️ I work from home on a Thursday and Friday so these and the weekend would be the days I would be mostly available. I have a lunch break and will work downstairs so I can attend to the animals needs and extra cuddles ☺️ I own my home and have no pets currently. I share custody of my three daughters but the availability will be based on when I don't have them. I have a fenced garden and plenty of indoor space for them. I'm not a ornament/trinket kind of gal so they have pretty much free reign downstairs and outside.
