I am currently working 9-5 within Derby City Centre. After 5, my schedule is usually pretty clear, so I would have plenty of time to devote to your animals - I also have flexibility to work from home. My weekends are usually free and I would love to have a companion on peak district walks etc.

Information Ella D. would like to know about your pet

Any information you can give about your pets would be welcomed. I have experience with a range of dogs including high energy large dogs to elderly dogs, so I would feel comfortable looking after any pets you have.

A typical day

I work in Derby City Centre from 9am to 5pm on Monday's to Friday's. Although i am predominately office based, I do a certain amount of flexibility to work from home. My partner also works nights, so he could be home with your pets during the day if that is what your pet would require. In the evenings and weekends, I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets and can tailor activities to your pets needs. For example, if you pet has high energy levels, I enjoy long walks in the peak districts, however, if they are more low energy, I also enjoy strolls round areas like Matlock.

Animal lover looking to get to know your pets! 🐾

Pet care experience

Having grown up around animals—including rabbits, cats, and guinea pigs—I have always had a deep love and passion for caring for pets. Animals bring me so much joy, and I have a special place in my heart for dogs. I quickly form bonds with them and fall in love with every dog I meet. Due to my current housing situation, I am unable to have a dog of my own, which makes the time I spend with them even more special. This is one of the reasons I am so eager to house-sit and care for pets, as it allows me to provide love and attention to animals while helping their owners. I currently walk a Cocker Spaniel and previously walked a German Shepherd regularly for a year. I also have experience house-sitting for families with pets, including a Labradoodle, cats, and chickens, ensuring their well-being while their owners are away.

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.
