Information Claire D. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to do further training if you feel I need it for your pet. I enjoy learning about all things animals and want them to be looked after to the best quality.

A typical day

Love walks at the beach or anywhere near water but happy to be around for less active dogs too with gentle strolls and lots of fuss.

Gentle, calm care for your pet

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m someone who’s naturally quite quiet and a bit socially awkward at first, but I truly come into my own around animals. I’ve always felt most comfortable in their company, and I absolutely love spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Because I’m more reserved, I tend to be very patient, calm, and attentive—qualities that animals really respond well to. Whether it’s going for walks, keeping them company, or sticking closely to their routines, I take pride in being reliable and gentle in my approach. When I’m not caring for animals, I’m usually drawing or painting them—it’s another way I connect with and appreciate their unique personalities. I was also a foster carer for 13 years, supporting children and young people, and I’m currently a carer for my foster son. This means I work my schedule around him, but it’s also given me a strong sense of responsibility, empathy, and reliability in caring for others. I may not be the most outgoing person with people, but when it comes to animals, I’m fully engaged, affectionate, and dedicated. Your pet’s comfort and wellbeing will always be my priority. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, calm, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’d love to help care for your pet.

I was really nervous about getting a cat sitter and leaving my cats, as they’re house cats and usually don’t like people, but you’ve been absolutely amazing. I loved all the little pictures and notes you sent — they made me feel totally comfortable knowing my cats were in such safe hands. I was honestly amazed at how quickly they took to you! Thank you so much again.

Claire looked after our cats really well and made the whole process easy and stress free. We loved the summaries written each day and felt confident they were in good hands while we were away. Came home to two very happy cats and a beautiful portrait of the two. Would happily book again.

Absolutely fantastic. Charlie loves Claire coming round and loves the fuss she always gives him. And Kyla is always happy to have some fuss. They are always so well looked after with Claire. Will definitely be using Claire for every trip we make as we trust her to take care of our furbabies.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
