My puppy girl Yumi is 3,5 months old lab. She is strong, active, always hungry, which is lovely, but sometimes challenging. I was really worried about leaving her for the first time. But I shouldn't have. Lauren made an amazing job spending 5 hours with Yumi today. When I got back, I found my little lady happy and cheerful, she was well looked after, went for a walk, got some training and was fed properly and on time to keep the routine. What could be better for a puppy to spend time with a future vet! Thank you Lauren, you made it much easier for me to go through today without worrying too much. Ina x"

Experienced pet and house sitter!
| I've grown up with several family pets - a golden retriever (Ross), a working cocker spaniel (Briar) and a show cocker spaniel (Poppy). Including smaller animals - hamsters (2), guinea pigs (4) and rabbits (1). Our last family dog, Poppy, had dietary requirements as well as needing daily medication in her food and also eyedrops. Im more than happy to assist with any particular needs that your pet might have. I really enjoy being outside and going on long walks, in any weather! I also love plants and am happy to care for their needs too. I have looked after the homes and pets of friends and family on many occasions, for up to a month at a time. This has included looking after cats and dogs!

Erins pet sitting
| Hi my name is Erin. 
My whole life I've grown up around animals, whether it has been cats, dogs or horses at my local stables. I describe myself as more of an animal person than people and so I'm looking for not just a part time job but to be able to give and receive love to and from your pet. Animals require more than just food, water and a space outdoors; I would be giving your animal the affection and attention they deserve at all times in my company, to show the appreciation for benefiting our lives as pet owners. I am offering, dog walking, day and night pet sitting to a range of animals. All the pet sittings would have to be done in the clients/ owners house as I live with multiple people. I honestly don't have experience with professional pet sitting, however as a pet owner I can ensure your animal is in safe hands. I'm willing to learn and gain experience so trust is built between my clientele and I. I'm very approachable so I hope to hear from anyone soon.
