About

Hiya! My name is Stephanie McGonigle, I am a self employed pet sitter and artist from Greenock, Scotland. My two passions in life are animals and animation. After being the go to person amongst friends and family to look after their pets while they were on holiday for a couple of years, I took the next step and started pet sitting for local clients in 2016.

Can't thank Stephanie enough for helping walk Storm while I was on holiday. She kept us updated regularly with fantastic photos (Storm is a bit of a poser so it seems ).

We were looking for someone who could spend a few hours in our home with our greyhound while we went to a family wedding. I was nervous about leaving our girl with a non family member but Steph was fantastic . She popped in beforehand to meet our dog and have a chat. She sent us a photo of our girl while we were away and we came home to a happy and not stressed dog. Would definitely recommend and I'm so pleased to know that we have someone we can ask to help again in future if needed. Thanks Steph :-) More...

I highly recommend Steph. She goes above and beyond for my pets (two cats, two degus, and a grumpy chinchilla). I feel very comfortable knowing she is looking after my furry kids. She is fully referenced and insuranced; she also has certificates in pet first aid and has an inhanced disclousure. All this she offered to show me within the first two minutes of meeting her. I cannot recomend her enough. I hope she will agree to look after our hairy rabble again � More...

We are completely delighted with the experience we have had with Steph. We were so apprehensive of leaving our little baby Hugo but Steph has made things so easy. She sent lots of pictures while we were away and Hugo looked like he was having an absolute blast. Knowing he was in such capable hands certainly made our time away more pleasant. We highly recommend Steph to anyone. More...

This was the first time we had used a Catsitter and we were exceptionally pleased with Stephanie. She obviously has a great way with animals and sent us daily photos of our cat, Freddie, playing with her while we were on holiday. It put our minds at rest to know that Fred was being looked after by a responsible and competent carer. Will definitely call on Stephanie again when we are going on holiday. More...

Stephanie looked after our two cats for the past week while we were on holiday. She visited our house to feed them, clean up and play with them. They looked like they had as much fun on holiday as we did! We loved that Steph sent us regular photos and updates - hugely reassuring to see photos of them happy and playing! Steph even picked up more food for them when we started to run out. We trust Steph completely, both with our pets’ welfare and with the keys to our home. She is so friendly, caring and a true professional. We will be recommending her services to friends and will always go to her when we go on holiday in the future x More...

Steph had our wee dog for 9 nights whilst we were away this year and we couldn’t be happier with the service. From a professional meet and greet to continuous photos of our dog whilst we were away and daily updates. Roxie was out every day meeting new friends and enjoying herself, spoiled with company and completely looked after. Will definitely be a regular for our pooch and we would highly recommend anyone be it dog, cat or even small pets. Thanks again Steph for giving us peace of mind whilst we were away we really appreciate everything you have done whilst Roxie was in your care! More...

Steph looked after my dogs Aika and Bae for a few days when I was away visiting my family. It is very important to me that my dogs are being cared for to a very high standard in a home environment, and not kennels, as Aika was recently diagnosed with pancreatitis and this is a tricky condition to manage. Bae is a very sensitive rescue dog, and requires delicate handling.
Steph cared for my dogs as if they were her own, took Aika to the vet for a check up, sent me pictures and kept in touch all the way through.
Aika and Bae settled in well with her and they trust her.
Steph has been a real treasure and I will definitely rely on her in the future.

Steph regularly looks after our three dogs for weekends. The dogs are always so pleased to see her, and they clearly love the time they spend with her. We would recommend Steph's services to anyone who wants piece of mind that their pets are genuinely being well looked after. She does a mean caricature as well, which we love. More...

Steph has looked after my cats Poppy and Lilly a few times now, and we couldn't ask for a more reliable and professional pet sitter. My cats have different quirks and temperaments, and Steph dedicates time to both of them and makes them feel loved while we're away. She kept in regular contact with us, updating us on the cats and any funny things they got up to while we were away! Would definitely recommend! More...

Steph dog sat Luca our labradoodle overnight whilst we attended a wedding. From the initial meeting Steph was excellent and I was happy to leave Luca in her care and just as importantly Luca was relaxed and happy in her company. We received photos throughout the time Luca was with Steph and he appeared to be having just as good a time as we were. I would happily use Steph again and thoroughly recommend her services. More...

Steph takes our two cockapoos out and provides a first class service. She is kind and caring, exactly what you want in someone who is looking after your pets. Our dogs, Cooper and Cash love her and get so excited when they see her because they must associate her with great walks and playtime. She keeps us up to date with regular photos and they are always tired out and happy after seeing her. I Would recommend Steph to anyone, she is the perfect dog sitter, trustworthy, reliable; responsible and a true animal lover. More...

Fantastic to be able to go on holiday without the worry/guilt of putting my cat, Simba, in a cattery. He loves to be outdoors so would hate being stuck in a cage. Stephanie stayed at the house so his routine would be the same as usual. She clearly loves animals and probably spoiled him. She also kept me updated with photos. Wonderful service which I can highly recommend. More...

Stephanie looked after my pedigree cat while I was away on holiday for 10 days. My cat boarded at Stephanie’s house. Stephanie kept in touch throughout my holiday and sent photos of my cat regularly.

Stephanie definitely provides a professional and friendly service. I would highly recommend her. More...
