Hate the stress of leaving your pets behind when you go away?
Leaving your pets in unfamiliar surroundings can feel unsettling — for them and for you.
At Hairy Poppins, your pets stay in the comfort of their own home, following their usual routine, so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing they’re in safe, experienced hands.
You might be wondering
- Will my dog cope being left somewhere unfamiliar?
- Will their routine be disrupted?
- What will I come home to if the house is empty for days?
Hairy Poppins was created to remove those worries.
By caring for your pets in their own home, everything stays familiar from feeding times and walks, to where they sleep at night. It’s calmer for your pets, and far more reassuring for you.
Services
Dog Sitting (In Your Home) with daily updates
Whether you’re away for a short break or a longer trip, your dog remains at home with their routine maintained exactly as you’d expect.
We offer two dog sitting options, depending on your dog’s needs:
Classic Package
Everything your dog needs for a calm, stress-free stay while you’re away.
VIP Package
Designed for dogs who need extra support, including working alongside existing training programmes or additional care requirements.
Full details are discussed during an initial chat to ensure the right fit for you and your dog.
Day Sitting
If your dog struggles being left alone, needs extra supervision, or simply
benefits from company during the day, our day sitting service offers peace of mind.
Ideal for:
- Puppies
- Elderly dogs
- Dogs who need extra attention or reassurance
Enjoy your workday, social plans, or even a rare date night — knowing your dog is cared for at home.
Pop-In Visits (Cats & Small Animals)
For more independent furry or feathered friends, our pop-in visits provide essential care while they stay comfortably in their own environment.
Perfect for cats, rabbits, chickens and other small animals who don’t need full-time care but still deserve familiar, attentive support.
If you need an emergency pet sit then get in touch.
