Pet care experience

Island retreat for your dog

With nearly three decades of dedicated dog care experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a heart full of love to my role as a dog sitter on the Isle of Wight. After saying goodbye to my beloved 17-year-old Jack Russel last year, I have deeply missed the companionship and joy that dogs bring into my life. From playful pups to wise seniors, I embrace all types of dogs and look forward to providing them with attentive care and endless affection in their own island retreat.

We are so grateful that we found Ron on the Rover app. He is the perfect dog sitter for our precious puppy Buzz. He has never been away from us before and with Ron and his wife’s kind and attentive care, Buzz has had a lovely little holiday. We will definitely be using him again. It’s such a weight off my shoulders. Loved all the photos and updates. So thoughtful and reassuring. Thank you so much Ron 🙏

If I could give Ron 6 stars I would - what a fabulous host for our precious puppy. I was so grateful for all the updates and could see Buzz was very happy and relaxed in his first time away from us. Will 💯 use Ron again 🙏🙏

This was Bear's first time with Ron and it could not have gone better. Thank you Ron, as this really gives us piece of mind while away. It is also reassuring to know that we have someone to rely on in the future.
