“Laura is a first class dog sitter and did everything and more than we expected when we left Ben overnight with her. She sent pictures of him out on his walks and playing with other dogs on her farm. We were very fortunate to find Laura at fairly short notice and will definitely use her again. Highly recommended. Thank you Laura”
“Jaye and Johnny put us at ease with our elderly miniature schnauzer Salt from the moment we met them. Warm, kind and attentive with a clear love for canine family members we were confident Salt was going to fit right in and they would take care of our old guy who had a few are related health issues. They sent several photos of their time caring for him over the 3 nights he stayed with them and Jaye gave us assurances he was doing just great. They bonded so quickly with him and great they live so conveniently close by to us too so that was a bonus. Would whole heartedly recommend Jaye and Johnny to others looking for a canine home away from home ! Thanks again”
“I can honestly say Louise is the loveliest person. She looked after my little pug Winnie with so much love and care. I felt so reassured that she was being looked after properly. I got regular photos and updates of Winnie which was lovely. I can’t thank her enough. I hope Winnie can stay with her again.”
“Winnie has been so well looked after by Karrie. On arrival Karrie was very reassuring as we hadn't left Winnie with anyone else before. She kept us updated with daily reviews and photos. We wouldn't hesitate in using Karrie again in the future and hope to do so again in September.”
“Chrissy has been amazing looking after our doggo for 6 nights. She kept us updated daily with photos and we returned to a relaxed and very at home pup when we went to pick her up. Would use again and can highly recommend.”
“Daisy has just returned from Raymonds after 10 nights with him. Through out her stay we were kept fully informed and received photos of her enjoying herself, and certainly looking like she had made herself at home. When we first arrived for her stay Daisy was more than excited to see Ray which we took as an encouraging sign and she was still at home there when we picked her up. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Raymond,this is Daisys second stay and hopefully not her last.”
“Lindsey was such a lovely host for our dog and I would love to hopefully have Bagel visit again as he had such a fun time. He had a lovely wide range of walks and loads of fun. Thank you!!”
“Our 9-month-old whippet/staffy mix had a great time with Kelly! Her three other dogs kept him entertained, and Kelly sent us daily updates and cute photos from the dog park. He came home happy, healthy and tired! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kelly to anyone else who is looking for a really capable sitter.”
“Thanks again for giving Monty a home from home for a couple of nights. He couldn’t wait to get in the door when I dropped him off - clearly knows when he’s on to a good thing.”
“Jordan was fantastic, I only booked the evening before and she was so accommodating and easygoing, especially as it was short notice. Doris has a wonderful time, I received regular updates which was great. I’d happily send Doris back anytime. 🩷”
“Emma did a fantastic job of taking care of Ruby. We were able to pop round for a meet and greet before hand so that Ruby had a chance to meet Emma and have a good sniff around where she would be staying, which really helped her settle in quicker. Ruby can be quite fussy, and it was fantastic to see how Emma took care of all of her (sometimes quirky) needs. She also provided lots of lovely photos and videos of Ruby during her stay. My wife and I would not hesitate to recommend Emma as a dog sitter, she’s kind and a true animal lover!”
“Sophie was amazing, she took our dog on last minute and he had a fantastic time with her! She did long walk with him and sent me lots of photos and stayed in contact regularly. I will definitely be using Sophie again to care for our young dog. Thankyou!!”
“Ewan and Katy are a wonderful couple who care for our furry friend when we need to be away. I know he will be looked after and loved. We get updates and pictures and I know they are looking forward to having him again in April. It is so comforting to know that you can leave your dog in their hands and he settles so well. Thank you both from Charlie, Rachel and Keith”
“I was really nervous initially as I’d never left my dogs with a sitter before. Eleanor and partner were really reassuring and kept me up to date with pictures. Daisy and Ralph were well looked after and enjoyed their stay. Would definitely re-book.”
“Thanks again for all the love and care you show our little Hutton. He has an absolutely brilliant time! Rasa sends us lots of pictures so we know he is doing well and enjoying himself. Communication is always quick and accommodating. Rasa’s house and garden gives our city-based pup a lovely big space on what we now call his “country retreats”. Thank you Rasa!”

“Once again returned home to a very relaxed happy and contented Lily. She has been very affectionate since I returned and has very obviously been looked after so well. Thank you Camilla ”
About: I’ve grown up around cats and have looked after cats for family, friends and clients over the years. I’m used to different personalities, from really affectionate cats to shy ones that prefer their own space. I’m happy with feeding, litter trays, playtime, keeping routines consistent and giving them company while their owners are away. I know how important it is for cats to feel comfortable in their own home, so I always try to keep things calm and stress-free for them 🩶
“When we met Louise we knew she would be a great fit for looking after our cat. Super friendly, warm and passionate about animals. We felt at ease knowing she would be giving lots of affection and playtime to our little one when we were away and we weren’t disappointed. We’ve booked her in for a house sit in the summer too! Many thanks 🙏”
About: Hi! I’m Daisy and I have had my own pet care business for several years, pausing it to go back to university. I have a lot of spare time alongside my studies so would like to fill it with doing what I love and miss from having my business. I have extensive experience of all kinds of breeds and temperaments and great references. I have a background in veterinary care and trained veterinary emergency care. Happy to accommodate all pet personalities and especially experienced with reactive dogs. I’m very flexible and free most days and times. Just give me a message to discuss availability. Happy to work adhoc or more of a regular service. I’m experienced with pets of varying temperaments, especially reactive dogs due to working a lot with rescues. I appreciate everyone’s pets have their own personalities so happy to work with them the way you feel is best.
“Tammy is an absolute godsend. Booked my 2 cats in for a week last minute and tammy was brilliant. Sent regular updates and photos. One of my cats was clearly nervous but soon came out of her shell. Thank you so much. Will definitely use again.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats and dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. At home, I share my days with my 11 year old Shih Tzu–Poodle mix, who keeps me smiling and reminds me how special the bond with our pets really is. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, giving you peace of mind that your furry friend is safe in my care. With experience ranging from playful puppies to gentle senior pets, I bring patience, love, and a bubbly, positive energy to every walk and visit. I work part-time in care, so I’ve got plenty of flexibility to fit in walks and pet sits around your schedule. Whether it’s a quick stroll, some playtime, or keeping your pets company while you’re out, I’m happy to make it work for you and your furry friends. When looking after pets in their own home, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved in their familiar surroundings. I’ll stick to their usual routine, give them lots of cuddles, playtime, and walks, and keep everything as stress free as possible just like they’re with family.
About: I have looked after cats for nearly 4 years now. From the elderly Tom to the crazy kittens. I am happy to give medication and have experience in this and I am always happy to provide cuddles, love and biscuits.
About: I have been a petsiitter, walker, companion for many years. I love all fur babies, recently looked after chickens too. I have a car, can work in York and surrounding areas. Will consider further afield but a minimum of one continous week. Always recommend a meetup before a booking for a cuppa and maybe a biscuit 😉 Recently retired. As i am an animal lover and experienced pet sitter for cats, dogs, chickens i can't think of a better way to spend my time. I cannot look after pets in my own home sadly. I can only offer pet sitting, Vet visits, Pop-ins for all fur babies, chickens, feeding, comforting, walking. Sadly I cannot look after reactive dogs because of past experience.
About: I’ve had 3 cats in the past which have all sadly passed so spending time with your furry ones would mean the world and heal me in many ways☺️ My most recent cat was taken care of solely by me by feeding and changing the litter every day.
About: Dog walker/sitter, initially for friends to cover for holidays and more recently through volunteering as a dog walker/sitter jointly with my husband, through online websites. Pet care will fit into my daily routine as part of my family. I have spare time to easily fit around your pet, offering plenty of love, care and attention around your pets needs. Your pet will be cared for within my own home following your pets patterns of behaviour. I follow your pets nutrition needs and ensure your pet is regularly taken for long walks local and in the countryside, no matter what the weather. Regular cleansing/bathing. Plenty of love, cuddles and treats for good behaviour.
“Helaina did two 30 minute visits to look after my Ruby. Ruby seemed to really warm to Helaina and seemed as though she had a good time. Ruby is an anxious puppy and Helaina really helped her come out of her shell a bit 😊 would definitely use Helaina again!”

“Thank you Claire, sorry I didn't meet you personally but my husband said it was a pleasure to meet you, very friendly and Loki was very chilled to be with you. The photos we received showed he was a very relaxed boy and when Rob picked him up your partner greeted him by saying ah you have come to pick up the chilled one and the little dude was just relaxing on a rug looking very relaxed. Typically we described him as a plodder but his photo on the walk was the complete opposite lol, the dude was leading the way and out in front. Yep we thought he might. He seems to have had a lovely but exhausting day and is now just sleeping the evening away. Highly recommend Claire and if we are ever back in York we will book her again. Thank you.”
About: I work part time from home so plenty of attention during your pet’s stay with us. Both myself and my husband have grown up around dogs, we have also had two family dogs over the past 20 years or so, but sadly our last fur baby left us for Rainbow Bridge seven years ago, aged 14. We have hosted dogs belonging to family and friends, for day visits, overnight stays and special trips to the seaside. We only accept well behaved dogs and prior to booking we always have a meet and greet with yourselves and your dog, we're sure you would also like to meet us too. We would love to know the little quirks and character of your dog to ensure he/she has a happy and settled stay with us, so let us know any special requirements, no matter how small, which your dog would require for his/her happiness and well being. During your dog’s stay with us he/she will enjoy two daily walks along country fields close to our home, around 40 mins each, if your dog requires less of more please let us know. Once the weekend arrives we explore the wider area, with walks surrounding the town we call home. Our home has a secure and fenced garden accessible from the kitchen via patio doors which are open most of the day, weather permitting, for your dog to enjoy the garden. The kitchen is the heart of our home, so rest assured your dog will be part of the family during his/her stay. The room provides a cosy corner where your furbaby is able to snuggle in their bed if they feel the need to nap in between exploring new places, enjoying a new social life and playing with favourite toys. Within 5 minutes of our home we have open countryside for walks, a run a round or a game of fetch.
“Duke my german shepherd had a fantastic time with Tammy and thank you so much for taking care of my boy. He was so worn out and loved i wouldn't hesitate to rebook Tammy when I visit Birmingham again”

About: I have had pets all throughout my life. These include dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, chickens and horses. I have a small amount of training experience from our last dog who was a border collie and i used to take her to puppy training and agility courses. currently have Willow who is a German Shepherd who is extremely well behaved and loves absolutely every one. I also have five cats and 8 chickens. I am currently working from home so I am at home 24/7 with all our pets. When I was working Willow would go to doggy day care which she absolutely loves. Many walks are taken throughout the day and I love going to the forest an the beach. I have an enclosed back garden which is completely secure. I allow all pets on furniture and beds however if you are not happy with this I can accommodate to suit. All meals will be given as requested also to suit. I have a large car so can take out if you are comfortable with this (I do insist that all dogs are buckled in for safety) I live in the country so have plenty space to walk from home.
“Jaye and Jonny were lovely and welcoming, and from the pictures they sent, and Juno's attitude when we returned, we could tell she had the most wonderful time. We'd happily leave Juno in their care again.”
About: Animals and dogs, in particular, have always been a big part of my life, I grew up around them and cannot imagine my life without a dog or two by my side. "My puppy dog loved being with Helga and her dogs Meg and Ruby . Helga is oozing with love for dogs I am so pleased to have found her I feel so at ease leaving my dog with her" Since leaving work in the social sector four years ago due to ill health, I have made a career move and am studying at diploma level with the Centre of Excellence. So far, I have completed and passed with distinction Canine Behaviour, Puppy Training, Canine Nutrition, Canine Holistic Health and therapy, and am currently studying animal welfare. My goal is to specialise in Canine massage which can offer relief for a number of physical and behavioural related issues. I have some experience of raising puppies arising from Meg delivering two litters, with one puppy from each staying here with us. We live together in my bungalow which has a lovely spacious garden (currently undergoing development) set aside (mainly) for the dogs and offers ample opportunity for playing, frolicking and training with the use of a low impact agility course. If that doesn't suit, free play is always an option. Our surroundings provide plenty of safe country walks with very little traffic, or a short ride in the car takes us to local woods and other places of safe walking. Quiet time is between 2 pm and 4 pm: this can be in the garden, or inside. If it is raining, we have various indoor games to play and a comfy settee to relax or sleep on. So, whatever the needs of your pooch, you can be assured that if he or she comes to stay with us, they will receive the very best care available. Please note that drop off times for overnight stays are after 2.00pm and collection is before 10.00am Any time outside of this can be accommodated by arrangement and will incur an extra day care charge. Full payment to be made through the Rover payment system at the time of booking.
“Julie was absolutely wonderful looking after Harley. I was sent pictures throughout the day and couldn’t have chosen anyone better :) I felt very comfortable leaving Harley with her at her beautiful home. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses. I’ve grown up with pets and have also worked on farms and livery, giving me hands-on experience with both my own animals and others’. I love taking dogs on long walks, playing, and giving them lots of attention, and I’m equally comfortable relaxing at home with cats while keeping an eye on them. I’m enthusiastic, trustworthy, and genuinely care about each pet’s wellbeing. My experience with animals of all sizes and temperaments, from puppies to senior pets, allows me to provide reliable and compassionate care tailored to each individual. As a York St John university student, I have a flexible schedule and am free most of the time, allowing me to dedicate consistent care and attention to pets. I look after my own cat, Orbit, every day, and I’m passionate about giving animals love, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. I provide pet care at the owner’s home, offering full attention to their pet’s needs. This includes regular walks, playtime, feeding, and any other care following the owner’s guidance to ensure each pet’s routine and wellbeing are maintained. I’m attentive, reliable, and always send updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and cared for.
“Teds first visit with Christianne - I could see that he took to her straight away which was very reassuring. Felt very happy leaving him with her and will definitely be using Christianne again when I need a dog sitter.”
About: My last dog was an energetic collie cross springer which was a rescue, he was highly intelligent and I did plenty of training to keep him busy and calm his nervous side. We have also kept rabbits and rats so I have a lot of experience with animals. We have a great garden that the dogs would have access to, we can work from home so there will always someone around. I and my husband can work from home and would be there to look after your dog, it would have regular garden breaks and any dog walks it needs, we have a couple of popular areas for dog walks nearby. Our teenager will be around at after school for extra doggy attention. Your dog would be the only pet in the house, and I would only take a dog or dogs from one household. We have a garden with 6ft fences so your dog would be free to roam safely. I would try and follow whatever routine you have to give to dog consistency and enjoy walking around the local area so look forward to getting out. I would welcome you round before longer stays so you can meet us and we can meet your dog,

I treat them like they’re my own and aim to keep everything as easy and stress-free as possible. References are always available if you’d like them. I structure my days around the pets I’m caring for, so they’re never just “fit in.” I’m flexible with mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I keep my routine light so I can give plenty of time, attention, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I’ll always work around your dog’s usual routine so everything feels familiar and calm for them 🩶 I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, and all their little quirks, so I can care for them properly and keep things calm and consistent. I stay attentive, notice small changes, and make sure everything runs smoothly while you’re away. You’ll always get clear updates, so you know they’re happy and well cared for 🩶

About: I grew up on a farm and have lots of experience looking after all animals. I grew up with golden retrievers, labs, spaniels, huskys and looked after multiple other breeds. I am a PE teacher who has time off during the holidays and loves spending it with animals and the outdoors.

I have a fully enclosed garden and a perfect amount of space for more than one or two dogs if necessary. I have a car if needed to be collected.
About: I have grown up fostering dogs and since moving out of my parents I have rehomed a cocker spaniel that was in bad shape. I have brought her to the amazing, well mannered, highly trained girl she is now. She gets on with all dogs, though can be nervous. I believe that pets are part of the family and think they deserve to at least use our furniture, we are their whole world after all. I have extensive experience in training puppies and dogs alike and also pick up on any signs, body language and behavioural issues and can address these promptly to ensure a happy time for your pets. My mum is a dog groomer too so I have grown up knowing the ins and outs of many different breeds and temperaments in dogs. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly, being self employed allows me to take control of my own schedule. I love going for walks and hikes so what’s better than being able to also take pooches for long walks and adventures, as well as nice chilled time on the sofa. I have a large fenced garden and a cocker spaniel girl of my own to keep your furbaby company. We can crate our dog or your dog if needed. My mum is a dog groomer so I have picked up dog first aid from her, as well as tips and tricks to bathing tricky dogs too! I am in a large house so theres room for indoor play and cosy relaxation alike.

“Laura is a first class dog sitter and did everything and more than we expected when we left Ben overnight with her. She sent pictures of him out on his walks and playing with other dogs on her farm. We were very fortunate to find Laura at fairly short notice and will definitely use her again. Highly recommended. Thank you Laura”
“Jaye and Johnny put us at ease with our elderly miniature schnauzer Salt from the moment we met them. Warm, kind and attentive with a clear love for canine family members we were confident Salt was going to fit right in and they would take care of our old guy who had a few are related health issues. They sent several photos of their time caring for him over the 3 nights he stayed with them and Jaye gave us assurances he was doing just great. They bonded so quickly with him and great they live so conveniently close by to us too so that was a bonus. Would whole heartedly recommend Jaye and Johnny to others looking for a canine home away from home ! Thanks again”
“I can honestly say Louise is the loveliest person. She looked after my little pug Winnie with so much love and care. I felt so reassured that she was being looked after properly. I got regular photos and updates of Winnie which was lovely. I can’t thank her enough. I hope Winnie can stay with her again.”
“Winnie has been so well looked after by Karrie. On arrival Karrie was very reassuring as we hadn't left Winnie with anyone else before. She kept us updated with daily reviews and photos. We wouldn't hesitate in using Karrie again in the future and hope to do so again in September.”
“Chrissy has been amazing looking after our doggo for 6 nights. She kept us updated daily with photos and we returned to a relaxed and very at home pup when we went to pick her up. Would use again and can highly recommend.”
“Daisy has just returned from Raymonds after 10 nights with him. Through out her stay we were kept fully informed and received photos of her enjoying herself, and certainly looking like she had made herself at home. When we first arrived for her stay Daisy was more than excited to see Ray which we took as an encouraging sign and she was still at home there when we picked her up. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Raymond,this is Daisys second stay and hopefully not her last.”
“Thanks again for giving Monty a home from home for a couple of nights. He couldn’t wait to get in the door when I dropped him off - clearly knows when he’s on to a good thing.”
“Emma did a fantastic job of taking care of Ruby. We were able to pop round for a meet and greet before hand so that Ruby had a chance to meet Emma and have a good sniff around where she would be staying, which really helped her settle in quicker. Ruby can be quite fussy, and it was fantastic to see how Emma took care of all of her (sometimes quirky) needs. She also provided lots of lovely photos and videos of Ruby during her stay. My wife and I would not hesitate to recommend Emma as a dog sitter, she’s kind and a true animal lover!”
“Sophie was amazing, she took our dog on last minute and he had a fantastic time with her! She did long walk with him and sent me lots of photos and stayed in contact regularly. I will definitely be using Sophie again to care for our young dog. Thankyou!!”
“Ewan and Katy are a wonderful couple who care for our furry friend when we need to be away. I know he will be looked after and loved. We get updates and pictures and I know they are looking forward to having him again in April. It is so comforting to know that you can leave your dog in their hands and he settles so well. Thank you both from Charlie, Rachel and Keith”
“I was really nervous initially as I’d never left my dogs with a sitter before. Eleanor and partner were really reassuring and kept me up to date with pictures. Daisy and Ralph were well looked after and enjoyed their stay. Would definitely re-book.”
“Thanks again for all the love and care you show our little Hutton. He has an absolutely brilliant time! Rasa sends us lots of pictures so we know he is doing well and enjoying himself. Communication is always quick and accommodating. Rasa’s house and garden gives our city-based pup a lovely big space on what we now call his “country retreats”. Thank you Rasa!”
“Vanessa was fantastic. Luna had a great time with her and her little family. Lots of updates and pictures, and made sure Luna felt fully at home away from home. Brill service!”
“Went to a caravan for 3 nights and had to get a dog sitter for my wee dog Mia as she just wouldn’t settle. Helen was absolutely amazing I can’t express that enough! She answered straight away when I booked, she sent me pictures of Mia to let me know how she was getting on and kept in touch with texts to keep me updated. She has her own three dogs and you can tell they’re all pampered pooches 🥰 if anyone is looking for a dog sitter in this area I would 100% recommend Helen and will definitely be back myself 🙈❤️”
“Logan had another great stay with Rachel. She's always very loving with him, and provides a good balance of activities to entertain him and also time to rest and cuddle which he loves. She kept us updated with photos and even offered to drop him off, which really helped us out. Highly recommend her and will definitely book again when we need!”
