Personalised, one-to-one care for dogs, cats and small pets in your area

Looking for reliable dog walking or pet sitting in East Finchley? Whether you need help during the working week or while you’re away, I offer friendly, tailored support for dogs, cats, and small pets across East Finchley and nearby areas as part of my services

I’ve lived and worked in the area for over 20 years and know how important it is to find someone you trust with your animals—and your home. That’s why every walk, visit, and overnight stay is carried out by me, not a stranger or agency worker.

From walks in Coldfall Woods to feeding visits while you’re away, I’m here to help.

Local Dog Walking Services in East Finchley

I offer solo dog walks, which means I walk only one household’s dog(s) at a time. This is ideal for dogs that are:

  • Nervous or reactive
  • Senior or slower-paced
  • Puppies in training
  • Better suited to quiet walks

Walks are carried out in familiar neighbourhood spots like Cherry Tree Wood, Coldfall Woods, and along the Parkland Walk. I never walk dogs in groups, and I don’t bundle multiple households together.

Dog walking prices:

  • 15 minutes – £10
  • 30 minutes – £15
  • 60 minutes – £25

After each walk, I’ll send you a brief update with photos if you’d like—via WhatsApp or Dropbox.

Pet Sitting and Pop-In Visits

Going out for the day? Working long hours? Away for the weekend? My drop-in pet care in East Finchley is designed to keep your pet comfortable and cared for in their own home.

Visits can include:

  • Feeding and fresh water
  • Litter tray or cage cleaning
  • Company, play, or quiet time (depending on your pet’s needs)
  • Administering medication (if required)
  • Light home security – lights, curtains, post
  • Daily photo updates

Visit prices:

  • One visit per day – £15
  • Two visits per day – £25

This is an excellent option for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small pets.

Cat Feeding in East Finchley

Cats are happiest when they stay in their own space, with as little disruption as possible. My cat sitting service in East Finchley offers calm, respectful care while you’re away.

I follow your routine, take note of your cat’s personality, and never rush a visit. Whether they want fuss and company or prefer to be left to snooze after a meal, I’ll work around them.

Cat sitting prices:

  • One visit per day – £15
  • Two visits per day – £25
  • Three visits per day – £40
  • Christmas Day, Boxing Day & New Year’s Day – £20 per visit

Overnight Pet Sitting and House Sitting

Some pets don’t do well with drop-in visits, especially if they’re used to having someone around overnight. If you’re away for a few days, my overnight dog sitting in East Finchley may be a better fit.

I’ll stay in your home and keep your dog on their usual routine, so they can rest and relax in familiar surroundings.

House sitting prices:

  • 24-hour care (where your dog can be left for short periods) – £60 per day
  • Full-time presence (for dogs who cannot be left alone) – £120 per day

This includes feeding, walking, companionship, updates, and basic home security (bins, lights, etc).

Please note: As per the DEFRA Code of Practice, dogs must not be left alone for long periods. I don’t offer daytime-only visits if your dog will be left overnight. For these cases, please book full house sitting.

Care for Small Pets

From rabbits and guinea pigs to hamsters and chickens, I offer small animal care tailored to your pet’s needs. I have experience with both exotic and domestic pets.

Visits can include:

  • Feeding and water checks
  • Bedding or hutch cleaning
  • Gentle handling or enrichment (if suitable)
  • Temperature and welfare checks
  • Daily photo updates

Small pets can be especially vulnerable during weather extremes or routine disruption. I’ll make sure they’re safe, settled, and stimulated while you’re away.
