Hello! 
My name is Lauren,
Leaving your pet can be hard — I make it easy.
I’m a reliable, caring pet sitter who treats every animal as if they’re my own. Whether your pet loves cuddles, quiet company, or gentle play, I tailor my care to suit their unique personality so they feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away.

I provide regular photo and message updates so you can enjoy total peace of mind knowing your pet is settled, loved, and well cared for. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely present with the pets I look after — not rushing in and out, but offering consistent companionship and care.

Your pet will be cared for in a calm, secure environment with plenty of love, attention, and respect for their routine. I’m especially mindful of pets who may feel anxious when away from their owners and take extra care to help them feel comfortable and at home.

I’d love to care for your furry family member and make their time with me a positive, stress-free experience — for both of you.

DVS checked and pet sitter qualified  

I’ve always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs, ever since I was a child. I grew up in a home where pets were part of the family, and I was fortunate to have a miniature poodle who became my best friend from 2008 until he sadly passed away in 2020. He taught me the joy, companionship, and responsibility that comes with caring for a pet.Over the past two years while living in Loughborough, I’ve had hands-on experience pet sitting and walking two lovely chihuahuas. I also regularly walked a friendly Bulldog, which helped me build even more confidence in handling different dog personalities and needs.I’m very comfortable with both dogs and cats and am more than happy to offer dog walking or pet sitting services at the owner’s home. At the moment, I’m not able to take pets into my own home, but I’m committed to providing attentive and loving care wherever I’m needed.


Hi, my name is Jess. I’m a caring and dedicated dog walker with a genuine love for animals. I was brought up on a farm, where I’ve been surrounded by animals from a young age, including dogs, sheep, and horses. Growing up, I regularly helped with day-to-day farm work and horse riding, which gave me hands-on experience in caring for animals and understanding their behaviour, needs, and routines. This background has made me confident, attentive, and comfortable handling animals of all temperaments.

I also have my own sprocker spaniel, so I’m very used to high-energy dogs and the level of exercise, stimulation, and attention they require. I bring that same energy and enthusiasm to every walk, making sure dogs are not only safe but also happy and well-exercised. I take my responsibilities seriously and always prioritise the health, safety, and wellbeing of every dog in my care, treating them as if they were my own.

I’m happy to work weekends, and as a university student my weekday availability may vary, but I will always communicate my schedule clearly in advance. 

I have always felt a deep connection to animals. Since I was young, the only job I could see myself doing was caring for animals, I worked on an alpaca farm when I was 15 and I went to an animal care specific college. I've grown up with cats and dogs and I have always made sure they have the best care I knew how to provide. I am a very responsible pet owner and I have previously cared for family members dogs/cats while they've been on holiday for weeks at a time, for instance, my dads friend works abroad a lot and he needed to go out of the country for two weeks, I stayed with his dog Millie who was about 4 months at the time, she was in the middle of being trained and in the time he was away Millie was able to sit, wait, jump, roll over, and had brilliant recall off the lead. I wouldn't say I'm absolutely confident in training dogs but I can definitely re enforce commands. I've also looked after family friends cats, inside and outside. 
I am autistic and as a child my most meaningful bonds were with my pets as I didn't feel on edge about what they would think of me. I think this has really shaped me as a person and has helped my passion in animal care bloom. My happiest memories from childhood include animals, taking my dog to the lake district for hours and hours of walks, snitching on my sister for sneaking the dog into her room because I was jealous, having no room in my bed because I insisted on having all of the cats in my bed with me, and the many many cuddles on the sofa before bed with the cats and dogs.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I have three family cats, Betty, Tinker, and Belle alongside a boarder collie named Dodger. Myself and my partner now also have two kittens of our own, Oswald and Juno, we also are big reptile and insect lovers and we have a bearded dragon, a blue tongue skink, and a rainbow stag beetle, and we've previously had jumping spiders, mantises, tarantulas, and giant african land snails.
I am more than happy to look after any pets around leicestershire, including exotic animals. I'm able to bath and brush dogs and cats. I do dog walking, I don't have any professional past experience in this however I grew up with dogs, walk my friends dogs, and my partner and his family have 7 dogs which I do walk too. I'm comfortable walking dogs on or off lead, I work to adapt to each dog's specific needs.&nbsp;
My number one priority will always be the animals welfare, that they are happy and all their needs are met. Even if your pets care is complicated, as long as you give me instructions on what they need, you can rest assured that your little friend is content and well cared for. 
I offer visits to your house to make sure everything is okay and that your pet has everything they need, my routine for this will obviously depend on your personal instructions and I will be absolutely sure to cover everything from cleaning food and water bowls filling them back up to picking up any mess they may have created. I'm also happy to bring inside any post if needed.&nbsp;
Despite my lack of specific qualifications, I am more than competent in animal care and I plan to gain relevant qualifications as time goes on.&nbsp;

I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and caring for pets has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I have over 8 years of hands-on experience looking after both dogs and cats, including owning four dogs and four cats myself. This has given me a really good understanding of different personalities, routines, and needs – from energetic, playful pets to those who are more independent or a little shy.

My motivation for being a pet sitter comes from wanting owners to feel completely at ease when they’re away, knowing their pet is being cared for as if they were my own. I understand how important routine, consistency, and trust are for animals, and I always take the time to follow owners’ instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or medication.

I’m calm, patient, and reliable, and I’m happy to adapt my care to suit each individual pet. I’m confident with drop-ins, walks, feeding, litter trays, and providing companionship and reassurance. If pets are staying in my home, I only accept vaccinated pets to ensure a safe and healthy environment for everyone. I always prioritise safety, comfort, and clear communication, and I’d love to help care for your pet while you’re away.

"I offer customized care for each pet, considering their unique needs and routines. My daily schedule involves regular walks, feeding, playtime, and administering medication if needed. I always ensure a safe environment, with secure indoor and outdoor spaces, and I'm trained in basic pet first aid.

Hi there! I'm Jet, a student currently studying at Loughborough University. Since moving away from home, I have really missed spending time with my beloved guinea pigs and walking Penny, a lovely little dog who I have walked on and off for the last 8 years. I would love the opportunity to spend more time with some furry friends, and give them the best possible care when you're not around.&nbsp;
With many animals in my extended family, I grew up with a deep love for animals. I have experience with small animal care (guinea pigs and hamsters), cat- and dog-sitting, and with walking, feeding and grooming dogs (from Jack Russels to Labradors). When going on dog walks with Penny, she can be difficult around other dogs, so I have learnt to keep her on the lead or close to me when other dogs approach, and offer her praise for remaining calm when interacting with other dogs. Going on dog walks with my cousin's labrador at a fairly young age taught me the importance of keeping calm when your dog gets agitated, and knowing what your limits are (as an 8 year old, I wasn't quite strong enough to walk Polly by myself, much to my disappointment, but I completely understand why).
I'm a kind, caring and patient person who always has the animals' (and their owners') best interest at heart. I hope to offer my care and support to you, and I would love to meet you and your furry friends soon.


Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter.&nbsp;

I am a lifelong animal owner and lover. Particularly dogs and cats. I appreciate that dog and cat pawrents have life commitments and holidays which can't always include our four legged companions and I want to offer my time to help and reassure you whilst you are away. I have cared for friends pets before, and happy to care for animals in any way I can (and understand the not so glam parts of being an animal owner too ).&nbsp;
I currently own a cocker spaniel, but care for my parents Weimaraner X GSP and cats when they are away. I don't currently own a cat due to where I live not being suitable, but I have owned them in the past.
The animal welfare act 2006 will always be adhered to with any animal in my care. I am DBS checked and hold a full clean driving licence with access to my own vehicle.
On my visits, cuddles and photo updates are guaranteed! If you think me and your pet could be a match, please get in touch. I can offer early morning, evenings after 4pm and weekend visits.


Caring and Experienced Cat Sitter
I am a dedicated and caring cat lover with over five years of experience raising my own cats. Cats have always been my favorite animals because of their unique personalities, independence, and gentle nature. Taking care of them brings me genuine happiness and fulfillment.

In addition to caring for my own cats, I have also helped friends look after their cats when they were away. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they felt safe and comfortable in their home environment. I understand that every cat has a different personality—some are playful and energetic, while others are shy and need patience and gentle attention. I always respect their space and adjust my care according to their needs.

When I was younger, I also had experience raising a dog, which helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility in caring for animals. However, cats have always held a special place in my heart.

I am responsible, patient, and attentive, and I will treat your cat as if it were my own. I will update owners the pets condition by sending photos to them. My goal is to make sure your pet feels loved and well cared for while you are away, so you can have peace of mind.

IMPORTANT NOTE: at present we are not offering services due to childcare. 
We are a couple offering dog/animal boarding from our home. We have 16 years of personal experience with dogs, ferrets, rats &amp; hamsters. We have looked after dogs of all sizes and temperaments. We do not have children in the home, it is just me &amp; my partner.
We offer what we'd want for our own dogs if they were being boarded; a safe, secure, caring &amp; loving home where your pet will be treated as if they are our own. We have a large sized dog bed (that is orthopaedic memory foam) in our kitchen where your dog can sleep. We are happy to allow dogs on our sofa, but if you do not wish for this we can set boundaries on this to ensure we teach your dog no bad habits!
We both still work full time outside of dog boarding &amp; doggy daycare, so we cannot guarantee that we will be in all day every day Monday - Thursday, which is why we do not offer our services then. But we are in the house Friday, Saturday &amp; Sunday. With boarding we offer at least an hour walk per day to ensure your pet gets out for some decent exercise each day. We board no more than 3 small to medium sized dogs and no more than 2 medium to large sized dogs (excluding our own 2).&nbsp;
Doggy day care - we can only offer this Friday - Sunday at present, as these are the days we are available outside of work. This means we can give your dog(s) our full attention that they deserve! With doggy daycare we include one walk if we have your dog for more than 4 hours. The walk will last at least 30 minutes, but we can walk for a shorter amount of time if your dog is not capable of this length of walk. For day care we take on no more than 3 dogs (excluding our own 2).&nbsp;
For dog boarding if you want us to have your pet BEFORE 6pm, then you must also book a doggy daycare slot. If you are picking your dog up AFTER 9am you must also book a doggy daycare slot to cover us looking after your dog. Doggy daycare - between 9am and 6pm. Dog boarding - from 6pm until 9am.Please be mindful before booking that we do have two of our own dogs, so your dogs must get on with other dogs.
We are happy to meet your pets needs and our two dogs LOVE company! We have a very spacious &amp; secure garden that the dogs can run around and have fun in.
Our garden is part patio and part natural grass. There are high fences and the gates are secured to ensure you pet can’t get out. We also live near some lovely parks &amp; nature reserves to take your dog to for exercise.
We will meet all your needs to ensure your pet gets the utmost care &amp; attention they deserve to ensure your peace of mind.
Our dogs eat a dry diet, but we are happy to cater to other dietary needs, including BARF, raw, tinned &amp; frozen foods.
We are fully insured for pet boarding, doggy daycare and dog walking.&nbsp;
We have plenty of spaces in our house for your pet to relax if need be.
If your pet has specific preferences on toys/blankets/treats please let us know and we will cater to this. We are happy to take their blankets to help them have a part of their home with them to help them relax in our home.
If you have any questions please get in touch &amp; we will be happy to help where we can :)
