Pet Sitting & Overnight Care in Great Yarmouth
When you need someone to care for your pet while you’re away, familiar surroundings can help them keep their usual routine. I’m Alyssa, and I offer daytime sitting, overnight stays and live-in pet care in your own home in Great Yarmouth, with enquiries welcome from Gorleston-on-Sea and Caister-on-Sea, subject to coverage, availability and suitability.
The right arrangement depends on how much company your pet needs and how long you’ll be away. We’ll agree the hours, routine and care requirements before a booking is accepted.

Standard overnight pet sitting — £45 per night
Includes care for one pet for up to 12 consecutive overnight hours, with companionship, overnight supervision and their usual feeding and toilet routine.

Clear arrangements before you go away
Overnight and live-in care require confirmed availability, pet suitability, an individual care assessment and my approval.
We’ll agree arrival and departure times, your pet’s routine, any permitted absences, access arrangements and the handover and key return.
Owners provide their pets’ usual food, medication, leads and other necessary supplies. Medication administration requires prior agreement. Additional pets and special requirements are quoted individually; no automatic extra-pet price applies.

Pet sitting questions
What is the difference between overnight and live-in care?
Standard overnight care covers up to 12 consecutive overnight hours. Live-in care covers an agreed 24-hour period, including daytime and overnight care, with up to two hours of pre-agreed absence.
Can you look after more than one pet?
Please include details of every pet in your enquiry. Suitability and any additional charges are assessed individually.
Does an enquiry reserve my dates?
No. Availability, care arrangements and the quotation must be agreed before a booking is accepted.
Meet Alyssa before care begins
A meet-and-greet is required before accepting new pets. We’ll discuss their routine, suitability and access arrangements, then confirm availability and the agreed price. Sending an enquiry does not confirm a booking.
