Curious if you’ve got some inquisitive hound or fearless terrier traits in you? Whether you’re more of an organised pastoral pooch or an intelligent working dog?
Take our interactive quiz to discover exactly what kind of dog you are.
You’re a bouncy Labrador.
You’re an outgoing social butterfly who loves to meet new people and enjoys bringing everyone together. If anyone suggests an outdoor gathering, you’re the first to get involved. You love to be the centre of attention, and always bring good vibes to the people around you.
You’re a Husky.
You’re a natural leader who’s all about getting things done – and you’re not afraid of the hard work needed to make it happen. You’re cool, calm, and reliable, so it takes a lot to ruffle your fur. If there’s rules to be followed, you’ll be the first to remind everyone about them. You know exactly what you want and make it happen.
You’re a Greyhound.
You like peace and quiet, love your own space, and are an expert in napping. A sensitive soul, you can tell when someone’s upset, and are always ready with a kind word. You may be gentle and reserved, but once you get the zoomies… there’s no stopping you!
You’re a Pomeranian.
If there’s a new and unusual documentary, you’ll be the first to know about it. Always with your nose in a book, you’ve picked up plenty of random facts. Even though you can spend hours falling down an online rabbit hole, you’re also proactive and curious. You love to explore new places and challenge yourself.
Once you’ve found your canine personality counterpart, why not check out something else worth wagging your tail about…

Petsure ambassador Dr Scott Miller also recommends the service:
“Animals respond to a different carer better than a new environment. Most animals are particularly bonded to their home, so for me, I think it’s best that animals can stay put. Stay in their own surroundings and then be looked after by a new carer, which is exactly what TrustedHousesitters provide.”

What is TrustedHousesitters?
TrustedHousesitters is a pet sitting service where fellow pet lovers look after your cat or dog in your home. You can go away on your travels and be confident that your pet is safe and happy in familiar surroundings. Sitters are ID checked and verified, with external references and reviews from other pet owners.
Many pet owners love to use this service because:
Sometimes a kennel or cattery isn’t an option, and independent pet sitters are expensive.
You no longer have to be reliant on neighbours, friends, and family who may only be able to pop in to do the essentials.
A TrustedHousesitters sitter can give them attention, playtime, and human interaction.
