Pet Sitting in Kensington

Live-in care for Kensington pets, with familiar homes and familiar walks.

Fully insured — £5m liabilityDBS checked24/7 live-in careFrom £28/night on longer stays

Kensington is part of our established London coverage, with homes ranging from mansion flats to quieter residential streets and garden squares. Whatever the property, our approach is to change as little as possible for your pet. The sitter comes to stay with them, following the food, walks, medication and household routine you set out before you leave.

Kensington Gardens and Holland Park give local dogs excellent options for exercise, while shorter walks can stay closer to home. Cats can remain entirely within their own territory rather than adjusting to a cattery. We're also comfortable working with porters and building-access arrangements, and your home remains occupied throughout the booking.

Where we walk dogs in Kensington

We keep your dog's usual routes — these are the local spots our sits here are built around.

Kensington Gardens

A large central green space with varied routes for dogs accustomed to regular park walks.

Holland Park

A mixture of woodland and formal gardens providing a different walking environment nearby.

The Kensington squares

Smaller and quieter green spaces that can suit short walks closer to home.

Cat sitting in Kensington

For cats settled in Kensington flats, staying home keeps their environment and daily rhythm familiar. Your sitter follows the routine you leave and can work with any porter or access arrangements required by the building.
