I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention Sophie provided for my dog! She was reliable, professional, and truly went above and beyond to ensure my little Alf was happy and well-exercised. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving hands, whether it was during walks or the 3 nights I was away, Sophie kept me updated with photos and messages, which was such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog walker and sitter! Not to mention a completely reasonable price range! Thanks again Sophie!"

iam very ecperienced and love to care for pets.
| Hello there, I am looking to get more involved with pets to either look after them or to do dog walking. I have a beautiful dog of my own. She is so friendly and a pleasure to have. I have grown up with pets around me; hamsters, rabbits etc. Most of my friends have pets, especially dogs. This is what made me decide to home a dog, as I love caring for pets. I have been a carer in the past and still do this at times. I do drive. I am flexible. Any questions please feel free to ask. I have volunteered before with pets so I have quite a lot of experience. Look forward to speaking soon.

Bright, young woman who loves all animals.
| Over the last 5 years or so, I have been trusted to care for many of my friends&family’s loved ones. I have taken care of dogs, cats and small mammals (such as gerbils). I have walked and fed dogs, as well as feeding and caring for my friends’ cats when they’re on holiday. I’m such a caring, warm person who’s always dreamed of a career in caring for animals. I moved to Leicester this year and not long after, got an energetic kitten called Oreo. I’m currently working a Monday - Friday job but am working from home so more than happy to fit your pets’ needs into my schedule.

Pet Sitter/Dog Walker
| I was very lucky to have been brought up on a beautiful farm in Zimbabwe surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. As a result I simply love animals and cant picture my life without them. I have many years of professional experience looking after a variety of different animals, from hamsters and guinea pigs, right through to horses and cows, and even the odd snake. I am extremely responsible and care deeply for the wellbeing and comfort of all creatures. My current work allows me to be flexible and with my passion for fitness I particularly enjoy dog walking too. My current availability is everyday from 8:00am - 4:00pm, and most nights, however this often varies so please get in touch if you require a service outside these times. I look forward to hearing back from you! Gemma.
