Pet care experience

High standard of care for pets

I was fortunate to grow up on a small freeholding in the countryside. My family had donkeys, sheep, chickens, dogs and cats. My special animals were Toffee the donkey, Sam the lamb and Lucy the old English sheepdog! I’m a genuine dog lover who has grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’d love the opportunity to look after yours and give them plenty of attention, affection, cuddles, and care while you’re away. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting in your home and in my home as I have secure fencing. We are so lucky in this area to be surrounded by beautiful fields and walking areas, which are perfect for safe, fun, and active walks for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or prefers a calmer, relaxed environment with lots of company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs and routine. Having grown up with dogs, I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, loved, and secure. I’m patient, reliable, and will always treat your pet as if they were my own. I know leaving your pet with someone else can feel daunting, so I aim to provide a warm, friendly, and trustworthy experience that gives both you and your pet peace of mind. I’m flexible with availability and can spend quality time with your pet to make sure they feel settled, cared for, and happy. I’d love to meet your furry friend and become someone you can rely on whenever you need help with pet care!

Helen is a lovely lady who came to meet Meg and me before the booking. This was particularly important as Meg is an older girl who now has health issues. Helen followed instructions on food and medication very carefully and sent photos of Meg which were very much appreciated. Very grateful that Helen was available. I couldn't recommend her too highly.

Thank you so much for accepting our late booking and looking after our dog amazingly in our home. He had a ball and you left our home spotless. Friendly, kind and communicative. We recommend!

Let me know if your dog has any favourite walks or places to go nearby. If they like to play ball when out. If they have good recall and you’re happy for them to be off lead. Also if they have treats when out walking.
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.
