Pet, Dog & Cat Sitting in Knightsbridge

Live-in care for Knightsbridge pets, with Hyde Park at the end of the road.

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

Knightsbridge homes tend to be mansion flats and red-brick blocks with porters, lifts and access arrangements to think about, and the pets in them tend to be used to company. A sitter who lives in keeps that company constant. They come to stay for the whole booking, follow the food, walk and medication routine you set out, and are there in the evening and overnight rather than dropping in and leaving.

For dogs, Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens are on the doorstep — the Serpentine, Rotten Row and the long grass towards the Albert Memorial are all within a few minutes of most Knightsbridge addresses. Brompton Cemetery is a calmer on-lead alternative to the south. We will ask about your dog's usual routes before the sit rather than assuming, and we are comfortable working with porters and building rules for keys, deliveries and access.

What we cover in Knightsbridge

Dog sitting in Knightsbridge

Live-in dog sitting in Knightsbridge: your sitter moves in, keeps Hyde Park on the daily round at your dog's usual times, and is there overnight. For a dog who finds new places stressful, staying home is the whole answer.

Cat sitting in Knightsbridge

Cat sitting in your own flat, not ours. Same windows, same hiding places, same feeding spot, with someone there in the evening rather than a brief visit. Indoor cats in particular do far better this way.

House sitting in Knightsbridge

Somebody genuinely living in your home while you are away — lights on, post collected, deliveries taken in, the porter not wondering. We do this alongside caring for your pets; the occupied flat comes with the sit rather than being a separate service.

Where we walk dogs in Knightsbridge

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

Hyde Park and the Serpentine

The obvious choice — a few minutes' walk from anywhere in Knightsbridge and big enough for any dog.

Kensington Gardens

The quieter western half of the same green space, with wide paths and fewer crowds on a weekday morning.

Brompton Cemetery

A calm, on-lead walk through mature trees for dogs who prefer a slower pace or older dogs on short rounds.

Cats in Knightsbridge

Many Knightsbridge cats live entirely indoors in mansion flats. Live-in sitting keeps them in their own territory with someone present overnight, and your sitter is happy to meet the building's porters before the sit so access is straightforward.

Knightsbridge pet sitting FAQs

Do you cover Knightsbridge and South Kensington together?

Yes. Knightsbridge sits between our Kensington, Chelsea and Belgravia pages, so SW1X, SW3 and SW7 are all within our normal West London range.

Our building has a porter and controlled access — is that a problem?

Not at all. Most of our central London sits involve porters, fobs or concierge desks. We will follow whatever your building requires and are glad to be introduced to the staff at the meet-and-greet.

Are you insured for Knightsbridge bookings?

Yes. £5m public liability, £75k pet injury cover and £10k for lost keys and locksmith callouts, held in the company's own name. Certificates are available before you confirm.

Do you offer dog walking in Knightsbridge?

Walks are included in a live-in sit rather than sold separately. Your dog sitter in Knightsbridge is already in your home, so the Hyde Park walks carry on at the times your dog knows. If you only need a walker during the working day, that is a different service and a local walker will suit you better.

Is this the same as dog boarding in Knightsbridge?

No. Boarding means your dog goes to stay somewhere else and fits in with another household. Live-in sitting is the reverse: the sitter comes to your flat, so your dog keeps their own routine and your home stays occupied throughout.
