About me

Hi, I’m Hester — mud, paws, and belly rubs are my speciality. I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I know what it takes to start a pet sitting business that works for you. Fancy a peek?

I know a good belly rub when I see one — and I know humans who love dogs can do amazing things. Whether you want me pampered or want to start sitting yourself, you’re in the right place!

Happy Puppy

Sleeping Dogs

My mission

Every dog goes to sleep with a full belly, feeling safe and loved

How I do it

Big, anxious, or high-energy dogs — the ones who don’t thrive in kennels — get my full attention and five-star fuss in the comfort of their own homes. And by helping other sitters do the same, we can bring that same personalised care to even more pups everywhere.

What my pet sitting clients are saying

Hester is a true animal person, as well as being a really nice human person, of course. My cautious collie cross took to her immediately and my spaniel cross was soon sitting on her feet. Hester has all the qualities you need in a petsitter and I would welcome her back!

Serena

Hester is a 5-star pet sitter and we loved having her. Her communication was excellent and I felt very comfortable leaving our animals and property in her care. Our collie totally adored her and wouldn't leave her side. Would love to have Hester petsitting again for us and I would not hesitate recommending her.

Elaine

I knew when I first chatted to Hester that our animals would be loved and cared for while I was away and I wasn't wrong! Hester was a perfect pet sitter. She's self-sufficient and adaptable, happy to follow our pets' specific feeding routine and gave them lots of love. She even walked Gracie on the day she left so I could have a lie-in. In the meantime Hester has looked after Brian and Gracie a second time. Great to have a "regular" sitter who knows my animals querks!

Gemma

Hester came to house sit and dog sit for me over Christmas 2023 (two labs). She was kind, adored the dogs and left the house tidy for our return. I couldn't recommend her more highly for her dedication, commitment and kindness to our dogs and I would definitely have her to sit for me again.
