Pet care experience

The best care for your fur baby 🐾

Hello, I am 35 years old and have taken care of dogs for as long as I remember. I have always loved dogs but lately I have also developed an interest in dog's behaviour and training and have taken some online courses. I am familiar with either small or big dogs and different breeds. My family and friends have dogs and often rely on me for looking after them while they are away. I am extremely caring, reliable and loving, but also very attentive, expecially when out and about for walks. When you leave me your fur friend, I want to make sure you feel comfortable and happy knowing your best friend will have the best care as if he/she was my own pooch. I work from myself as a Designer, so I'll have plenty on time to spend with your best friend, by going for long walks, playing, cuddling and if required a bit of basic training too! My schedule is very flexible, I am available for walking /sittings and/or boarding during weekdays and weekends, depending on my Rover calendar availability. We live in a very large apartment and it's only my partner and I, no kids or other dogs/pets. My partner, David, also works from home and usually joins me for a long walk at lunchtime to spend some time with your pooch as, like me, he is a dog lover and has a strong understanding of dog training too. However I will be the main one looking after your pooch as I am self-employed so can schedule my time around commitments. We live by the canal surrounded by nature, with plenty of long walks and parks.

House Sitting • Sep 18, 2022

Roberta couldn't have been better. She took the time to come and meet my dog and to go for walks with her. She made her so, so welcome and genuinely loved her. My dog is a sweet, rather timid little soul, so she needs this and Roberta understood. She also understood my bond with my dog, respected it and sent me photos and videos every day. I can't recommend her highly enough, totally sensitive to my dog's needs and my need for reassurance every day that she was fine, happy and waggy.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 14, 2022

My energetic, playful young fox terrier had a good time with Roberta for the day, and came back bouncing and happy, followed by blissful sleep for the evening. Definitely recommend Roberta for looking after dogs well; I'll happily use her again for mine.

Look no further..Roberta will look after your dog like it's her own. Her bright, caring personality shines through from the moment you meet her. Would have no hesitation in recommending her, five star service.

Roberta has been amazing with Kimi and so loving with her. We will be using Roberta again. It is obvious that she loves dogs and is a very caring person.

Our miniature Schnauzer Fritz had a great away day with Roberta & her partner. A lovely couple who made Fritz most welcome & looked after him very well. He came home & he slept soundly, clearly he had been kept well amused. We were so pleased with how he was looked after we have already booked him in for a week later in the year.

Roberta is wonderful. You should have absolutely no worries about leaving your dog with her. She is happy and caring and will give your dog a real home-from-home experience. We feel like we've found a fantastic place to leave our beloved Archie and can go away with perfect peace of mind.

A typical day

There is a beautiful long canal close by where we live, surrounded by nature, canal boats and plenty of walks. In our long walks, we might meet some other dogs and we'll be able to socialise with other fur friends. We'll play a bunch of games together and explore a big park near my house, leaving some time for chilling and cuddles. Equally as caring, I am also very respectful. So I want you to know that I will never take your dog off lead, unless I have had permission from you first.

♡IMPORTANT INFO PLEASE READ♡ We'll ask all owners to make sure that their pooch has had fleas and ticks treatment as well as being clean and inspected before being left in our care. This is to ensure that we can keep a safe and clean environment (our home) so that your fur-friends can enjoy a safe space. Failing this, will result in the sitting/boarding be terminated immediately. Additionally, let me know if your pooch has any allergy, special needs or behaviours I need to be aware of. Any relevant information, regarding routine, behaviour, can be further discussed at the meet and greet.
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.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
