“This is the second time we've used Katrina and she has been amazing both times! She sends lots of pictures of her loving on our babies like they're her own. We never have to worry about our kitties when we go out of town. I highly recommend booking with her!”
About: Rates are negotiable, depending on the distance from my home, specific services, and number of pets.💙 Walking, feeding, and potty breaks will never be a problem with me looking after your baby . I am available to stay at your home on the weekends. I can bathe and cut nails, if the pet cooperates. I have always been an animal lover and cats/ dogs usually love me too!! I have dog sat for family and friends, for over a year off and on. I'm interested in helping others with their pets. I look forward to taking care of your fur baby! I will shower your pets with love and affection. I will adhere to whatever schedule is requested. Feeding and potty breaks are essential. I'm here to help! I work part time and I travel semi frequently. I have a regular client, I watch them Monday and Tuesday mornings. If enough notice is given, most of the time I will love to watch your baby! If you need last minute late night pet sitting, I'm your girl! I am very much a night owl I am able to board small dogs and cats at my home. I do have 7 cats, so they must be ok with other animals. I have a separate room, I would put them in while im gone.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. I am a huge animal lover, and I can’t wait to meet your pets!! I am available anytime throughout the week for pet care (Mon.-Fri.). On weekends, my availability is anytime after 4 p.m. for both Saturday and Sunday. I will follow any schedule or routine that you provide to me. I can also bring toys, treats, etc. for your pet(s) if you need me to!
About: My journey as a dedicated dog caregiver began early in my life, and it took a heart-touching turn when I found myself nurturing eleven newborn puppies, following a tragic event that took their mother. I remember vividly the mix of apprehension and determination as I sat on my bedroom floor, syringe-feeding each tiny pup. That first five-hour marathon of feedings marked the start of an unforgettable bond that grew stronger with every round of care. Each puppy, now happily in their forever homes, holds a special place in my heart. This experience not only honed my pet care skills but also deepened my understanding of the unique needs of young animals. With patience, love, and a commitment to continuous improvement, I offer a caring environment where your pet can thrive, feeling as cherished and attended to as those eleven puppies did. My job is seasonal, the busiest is in the summer. During the peak months of July/August my schedule varies, therefore I will regularly keep my calendar updated to reflect my availability. In the fall and winter seasons I am usually available anytime. I will care for your pet as requested per client's preferences. No one knows your pet like you do and I will stick strictly to that care and schedule.
About: I have over a decade of experience raising, sitting, and walking dogs of all sizes; I enjoy spending time with all pets and adjust quickly to special needs. During the week, I intern for Dept. of Commerce from 9am to 5pm. I am free to spend time with your pet outside this time. On weekends, I have flexible availability. No backyard but nearby parks make for a fun trip. House will have treats and toys. Dogs allowed on furniture. Will communicate with owner regarding any special needs their pet might have.
“Thank you to Emily for taking care of my sweet girl and administering her twice a day insulin shots. Emily was amazingly patient with Puddin until she became comfortable to allow her to provide the shots. I am very appreciative for her help while I was away and will be using Emily again for my trip next month! :)”
“Kinna was the absolute best person to care for my boy! I had absolute trust in her coming into my home and caring for my animals. I came home to happy and content animals. I wouldn't trust anyone else to stay with them.”

The average cost for Pet Sitting in London on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 52 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across London. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a London stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
