If you’re lucky enough to have Lucy Rogers looking after your dog, there’s every chance they’ll come home fitter, happier, and wondering why you don’t provide quite as much entertainment. I’ve known Lucy for years, and she’s one of those people who animals instinctively seem to trust. She’s endlessly kind, brilliantly reliable, and has more enthusiasm for a muddy walk than most people have for a beach holiday. She somehow manages to strike the perfect balance between sensible and great fun—a rare talent in both dog walkers and humans. The Rogers household has always been full of warmth, laughter, and the sort of people you’d happily leave the keys with. Any dog in Lucy’s care will be treated as if it’s part of the family, complete with plenty of affection, attention, and the occasional conversation they’ll no doubt pretend to understand. If I ever needed someone to look after my own dog, Lucy would be my first call without a second thought. I’d know they’d be safe, well exercised, thoroughly loved, and probably a little reluctant to come back home—which, while mildly insulting, would also be completely understandable. Lucy is exactly the kind of person you hope to find on Rover: trustworthy, thoughtful, genuinely dog-mad, and someone who will care for your pet as if it were her own. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Lucy would be the ideal pet sitter. She gets up nice and early and lives a structured, wholesome, active lifestyle, with her days often filled with walks and outdoor activities. My dog has stayed with Lucy many times, and I can honestly say, hand on heart, she would move in with Lucy and her family in a heartbeat if she could! It’s clear how loved and well cared for she is every time she stays. Not only is Lucy the perfect person to look after your pet, but her home provides the ideal environment too. Your biggest challenge will be persuading your pet to come home afterwards—trust me, they won’t want to leave
