Dog-obsessed person and goofy doggie10.3 miles

Lives with Bernese Mountain Dog Beni
"Gergely took wonderful care of our 3-year-old lab, Milo, while we were away on holiday. They kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which was very reassuring. Milo has allergies and needs extra attention, and Gergely carefully followed all our instructions without missing a detail. The communication was excellent throughout, and we returned to a very happy and well-cared-for pooch. We would happily recommend Gergely to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful dog sitter."

"Zofia is an absolute star! I really appreciate her being available at short notice and how communicative she is before and during the stay. I don’t know how I’d manage without her because she’s become really invaluable, and I know Tallulah loves spending time with her. Thanks for always helping me out, it’s much appreciated! "

"Once again we have nothing but praise for Monika as a cat sitter. We have now used her on several occasions & her love & care of our cat means we have no anxiety about leaving him. He is an older cat, requiring medication but this is not a problem for Monika. Her regular updates & photos are appreciated as well."

"Macy house sat for our two dogs and our cat while we were away on holiday.
She was very accommodating and was immediately great with all the animals.
She communicated well and nothing was to much trouble. We got lots of photos while we were away which was lovely to see, all the animals were clearly very happy in her care.
I'd definitely recommend Macy and look forward to the possibility of having her back next time we need her services! "

"It was very short notice and Acacia was so kind with the cats whilst we were rushing about mad to go glamping for the weekend. My cats seemed happy when I returned and not anxious about the 2 day break. One can be anxious but he was sniffing her hand very quickly, when she first met him. My other cat is very friendly. She was quickly booked and very reliable. I will have her look after my cats overnight or for the day again. We’re really pleased we have found a reliable cat sitter."

"Megan has been a wonderful carer for our dog, cat and fish on many occasions and we wouldn't think of asking anyone but her to look after our pets and home. She is professional, responsible and truly connects with and cares for our animals. Our dog and cat are sensitive to their family being away, and Megan sends us regular updates and photos of our girls relaxed, happy and up to their usual routine. When we arrive home, they are calm and happy, which is such a comfort to see. Megan has also been a fantastic and conscientious house sitter. We are so grateful to have found Megan, and she has our family's full confidence and highest recommendation."

Happy Paws Pet Care 😸🐶🐾9.2 miles

"Sanika stayed overnight at our house to look after our cat while we were on holiday. He’s a spoiled indoor/outdoor cat that is very used to us catering to his every need.
He has a tendency to be scared of new people and will run and hide but he took an instant liking to Sanika and approached her straight away when she came for the meet and greet. Sanika understood how important it was to us that our cat was taken care of like we were still there. The thought of him being distressed is enough to ruin a holiday.
You really have to trust a person to give them access to your home and my partner particularly can be sceptical about letting people have access to our house but he also took an instant liking to Sanika. She is very friendly, thoughtful and courteous.
While we were away, Sanika gave daily updates and took photos of our cat at various points throughout the day and made up funny little stories about what he had been up to. Our cat looked happy, relaxed and content in all of the photos and we could tell he was very comfortable. I sent war and peace on our home and how to look after our cat and it didn’t put her off at all.
Sanika left our house spotless as if no one had been there all week! If we had not had the evidence of a full days worth of pictures every day, I might have wondered if she actually stayed!
I couldn’t rate Sanika highly enough and we will think of her when we next go away. "

"Eilidh is responsive, professional and kind. As a dog parent, travelling has always been a major consideration, somewhat a dread if I’m honest as I’m always worried about the little ones. Eilidh made my trip possible, enabling me to have some “me” time.
Some of the highlights:
- Responsiveness: Outstanding communication. Eilidh responded with 15 minutes at all times, pre, during and post dog sitting.
- Genuine love for the dogs: Eilidh was welcome to go out for a few hours per day, but she rarely left the dogs. Maximum time she left the dogs was 2 hours in a 24 hour period. This was over a four day period. This is wonderful to see as Eilidh genuinely wanted to spend time with them despite she had my permission to go out for longer. She also slept on the sofa to keep the dogs company as they were not allowed in bedrooms.
- Transparency: I was able to leave Furbo on to keep an eye on things. Complete trust and transparency.
- Toy breed: Eilidh looked after my toy breed dogs, appreciating that at 2kg they are much more fragile so Eilidh was very careful with them
- Mixed ages: From the age of 4 months to 8 years.
- Medication administration: One of my senior dogs has a heart problem, Eilidh administered the medication punctually and correctly.
- Diet: Dogs are raw fed, Eilidh handled raw meat with ease.
- House maintenance: My home was well maintained, a respectful guest.
I am a repeat customer of Eilidh and will continue to be, as a professional working in the city, Eilidh has given me the freedom to travel knowing that my little ones will be well cared for. I would highly recommend her!"

"Chloe was absolutely amazing! Peppi got ill due to separation anxiety and Chloe nurtured her back to health. She took my dog on long walks and played with her. She even allowed my cat to sleep with her in bed even though she did not have to do that (my cat was being pet sat by my flatmate). Do not hesitate to book with Chloe, she is the sweetest person ever :D"
