Hi my name is Barry, I'm a professional dog walker and caring after dogs is my main job, I've also owned and trained dogs now for around 10 years, I've gained my experience from volunteering at local dog kennel's and shelters, I've also rescued dogs from abroad from Spain and my current dog a border collie cross I rescued from Greece,she was a very timid and nervous dog afraid of her own shadow but managed to train her into a wonderful family pet.                           I seem to have a natural bond with dogs and have never met a dog that didn't like me, yes I am blessed I consider myself to be a bit of a dog whisperer, I love being in the company of dogs I just find something special about them which instantly makes me happy and cheerful and let's be honest they make far better companions then humans, I'm an experienced dog walking \ sitter with full insurance and an up to date DBS certificate for you're peace of mind ( DBS certificate available to view at customers request ) so feel free to get in touch,I WILL NOT TURN ANY PET AWAY !!!! big or small aggressive or soft I'm you're the man for the job.Fun fun fun a happy pet = a happy owner                                                                               I offer dog walking for 1 hour and 30-minute slots                                House visits for 1 hour and 30-minute slots( longer timeframes may be requested).

I have a dog myself and Barry has dog sat for me on many occasions. He has real compassion for them and looks after them brilliantly. Barry is at his happiest walking dogs and loves spending time with them. Any dog would love him and would be given the time and attention they need, cared for and kept safe whilst in his care. actual customer review.

I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities, and my motivation to be a pet sitter comes from a genuine love of animals and a strong belief in calm, kind and responsible care. I have supported friends, family, and local clients with regular walks, feeding routines, and pet pop-in visits, always tailoring my care to each pet’s individual needs.
I focus on safety-first care, small groups and on-lead walks, which helps dogs feel secure and relaxed, especially those who may be nervous, older, or easily overstimulated. I take time to understand each pet’s personality — whether they are energetic and playful, quiet and cautious, or somewhere in between — and adapt my approach accordingly. Some dogs benefit from gentle encouragement and structure, while others thrive with enrichment, sniffing time and calm interaction.
I am confident in handling unexpected situations and always prioritise a pet’s wellbeing. In the event of illness, injury or an emergency, I follow owners’ instructions carefully, act calmly, and seek veterinary advice where needed. Clear communication is very important to me, and I make sure owners are kept informed and reassured at all times.
I am reliable, patient and attentive, and I aim to provide care that gives owners complete peace of mind while they are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work hard to ensure each experience is positive and stress-free.
For the safety of all animals in my care, I only accept vaccinated pets when required and always closely follow established routines and guidance.&nbsp;


Hi there! My name is Stephanie, and I am a massive animal lover with years of experience caring for furry friends. I understand how stressful it can be for owners to leave their beloved pets behind, so my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pets can feel right at home.I have extensive experience with dogs, from energetic puppies to senior pets that require a bit more patience and gentle care.&nbsp;
Whether it's going for long walks, engaging in active playtime, or simply offering plenty of cuddles on the sofa, I tailor my services to meet the unique personality and needs of every pet. I am very attentive to their routines and will ensure they follow their usual feeding and exercise schedule.&nbsp;
To ensure the safety and health of all the animals in my care, I only take vaccinated pets into my home.&nbsp;
I am a responsible, reliable and communicative sitter, and I'm happy to send you regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I look forward to meeting your wonderful pets and treating them like members of my own family!


I enjoy a good walk but having a dog by my side makes it that much more enjoyable regardless of the weather. I have a Yorkshire terrier she is almost 4, she is super spoilt and although she might be small she is a big part of our family.I grew up in South Africa with all kinds of animals (not just dogs) and did volunteer work from a young age in different shelters, what I can say is that the experience has certainly shaped me into the person i am today and my desire to help others when needed.&nbsp;I am a mum myself and i understand the needs of making sure that our fur babies are taken care of too, it's not always an easy task when you try to juggle in work as well as everything else life throws at you all at the same time, maybe an unexpected injury or health condition that prevents you from&nbsp; meeting their energy level requirements.I look forward to meeting with you and discussing how best I can help.

I’m a reliable, caring, and genuine animal lover with two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. Spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love getting outdoors for walks while making sure dogs feel safe, happy, and comfortable in my care. I offer flexible dog walking services tailored to your dog’s individual needs, whether they prefer solo walks, group walks, slower paced walks, or extra playtime and attention.

I also provide home drop-in visits, which are ideal for feeding, companionship, toilet breaks, playtime, or simply checking in while you’re at work, away for the day, or on holiday. I’m confident with different breeds, temperaments, ages, and routines, including nervous or energetic dogs, and I always follow owners’ instructions carefully. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness will always be my priority, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’m also happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand to ensure the right fit for both you and your pet.

Hi I am Andy and it would be a real pleasure to care for your pet when you are unavailable. Boarding for cats can be a very stressful experience so if your cat is able to be cared for in their own home while you are away, will reduce the stress of you being away for them.&nbsp;
I work for the Cats Protection so I have a vast amount of experience caring for cats with all sorts of personalities.&nbsp;
I have completed an animal management course, achieving a distinction star grade. I am also studying for a qualification in animal behaviour, I understand cats can be wary of strangers, therefore I will do my upmost to put your cat at ease throughout the experience.&nbsp;
I have experience of administering medication.&nbsp;
I also have two cats of my own, Dotty and Patch which were rescue cats I adopted when they were 11 months old.&nbsp;
I work full time within the animal industry, so I have availability throughout the week and weekends to visit of an evening to provide care for your pet.
I can provide a drop in service tailored to your requirements to provide for all your cats needs and look after your home whilst you are away. I will ensure your cat is fed to your requirements, litter trays changed, give them lots of attention and play time and give you updates on your pet.


I have had my own dog for 11 years - Eddie! He is my little sidekick in everything I do. I love taking him on walks through the park. As well as walking Eddie with my friends and their dogs! I also work in a garden centre part-time, where dogs come in all the time, and it definitely brightens up my day when they come over to the till looking for attention.&nbsp;
I am on summer break at university, so I have loads of time on weekdays to help out with your dog, whether it is visiting them during the day and giving them some company and loads of strokes or taking them on their walks!
I will take your dog on a walk that suits them! Whether they are a senior dog who needs a shorter walk/slower walk or a dog that loves a long walk! I am okay to take up to two dogs at a time! And can walk them for around an hourish. I will provide updates as well!
I am attentive to dogs' needs as well as mindful that dogs have their own little ways and routines, and will try to keep to that as much as I can (taking them on their favourite routes and giving them their favourite treats).&nbsp;

Hiya i'm Samantha, Currently i'm at university studying paediatrics so trying to work is pretty hard and i'm looking for a bit of extra work which is why i'm here.&nbsp;
I have my own dog luna who's a staffy and i adore her, she's my best friend. I love animals and dogs and will happily take care of them. I offer home check ins throughout the day and will send you updates and photos.
When doing a home visit i will let your animals out, feed them if asked play with them for 10/15 minutes and keep them company make sure they are okay send you updates and photos to let you know how they are. If your animal requires any medication let me know the best way to administer/ give it to them. If your dog has any preferences or if it doesn't like being touched etc please make me aware as i will care for your dog like i do my own and will give it cuddles. 
I will communicate by walking or bus depending on how far away you live from me.
I don't have any professional experience as my line of work isn't animals but i do enjoy being round them. My only experience is my own pets which have varied from dogs to ducks to hamsters, rabbits and guinea pigs etc so quite a variety of different pets. If there's anything i need to be aware of with your pets please let me know etc. Or any specific concerns or questions just ask me.&nbsp;
Thank you very much .
