“Holly was a wonderful cat sitter, making sure to send a picture of Squeak every day to let me know that she had seen her, I would definitely recommend her and will be sure to reach out to her again if I need another cat sitter.”
“Charlie and Hannah were amazing. Extremely communicative, came twice in one day to drop-in to look after our two girls. Even though I was out of the country I felt like I knew exactly how my two dogs were doing, the videos and photos showed my girls relaxed and happy. Will definitely be rebooking with Hannah and Charlie!”
“So glad to have found Bekki to look after my boy! She met us beforehand and was wonderful on the day she walked him, kept me informed and made sure she knew all she needed to know to keep him happy. I have also booked her for overnights in my home which I’ve not done before - after meeting her I feel comfortable with her staying in my home and confident she and Mars will have a wonderful time!”
“Thank you Alison for looking after our furry girls. Alison bonded with our cats straight away and was consistent, professional and a great communicator with frequent updates and pictures! Will definitely ask her again for the girls!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Lucy has set the bar very high. Lucy came to the house a few days before our trip to introduce herself and meet our elderly cat. She was on time, asked all the right questions, and you could see she has done this many times before. Lucy kept us up to date throughout our trip on how our cat was doing and sent pictures too. Great service and we had peace of mind the whole trip knowing Lucy was looking after Sheba AKA Beanie.”
“Verity was perfect, Duke absolutely loved her from the off and she made us feel very comfortable. She listened carefully to all the info about his commands and quirks and was brilliant with him. Would recommend Verity and will be booking her again. Thank you! X”
“Daisy has been wonderful. She looked after my babies and made me feel at ease every day. She went above and beyond to make sure they were safe and comfortable. She sent regular pictures and detailed messages about where they were in the house and how much they were eating. I will definitely book Daisy again for my next holiday! Thank you very much for everything you have done for them 🤗😘”
“Iva was highly reliable and so importantly, kind and caring with Simba, who loved her! Iva sent us daily texts and pics of Simba, which was very reassuring. We'd have no hesitation recommending Iva and we will be asking her to help again with our next holiday.”
“Lucy has been absolutely incredible. Super communicative with pictures and updates frequently and adjusted seamlessly to changes we needed to make on our end (and our cats irregular schedule!). Blue seemed so happy in her company and we felt so assured whilst we were away. ”
“Jade was wonderful! She was very communicative, and gave us daily updates on our two cats while we were away. We couldn’t have been happier with the service she provided. We would highly recommend Jade.”
“Eloise and her husband Zac are amazing. My dog Lara loves them. They have taken very good care of her and I have also received all the updates from the visits which is great! Highly recommended!”
“Keely was efficient as usual, messages and photos received. Sadie was fed, watered and medication given. Keely left the light on as we were returning after dark. Makes leaving Sadie home alone so much less of a worry.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have spent years looking after dogs and cats for friends and family. From caring for them for a few days to looking after them for several weeks while their owners are away, I absolutely love having them around and have always received lovely feedback. I work from home, so I’m able to give pets plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I’m also naturally active and enjoy daily walks, so having a four-legged companion join me would be a bonus! Most importantly, I want every pet in my care to feel happy, safe and completely at home while their owners are away. I’d now love to bring that same care, attention and affection to pets in my local community. 🐾 I work from home, so I’m around for most of the day and have plenty of flexibility to give pets the attention and care they need. I always take a lunchtime walk, usually around 30 minutes to an hour, and I also enjoy a longer walk after work. I’d love to have a dog join me on these walks! I’ve cared for my mum’s dog, Charlie, and her two cats, Milo and Casper, for over two weeks at a time on several separate occasions. During these stays, I was responsible for Charlie’s daily routine, including taking him for at least two walks each day, keeping him company and making sure he was happy and entertained with plenty of playtime, toys and treats. Charlie can be quite a picky eater, so I also made sure he was eating properly by patiently encouraging him at mealtimes and rewarding him afterwards. I also looked after Milo and Casper, making sure they were well fed, comfortable and cared for while their mum was away. I’ve also looked after my friend’s cat, Molly, over a weekend while she was away, making sure she was a happy kitty and got all the attention and affection she deserved. I understand how important it is to give pets a safe, calm and familiar environment, while following their individual routines and giving them plenty of attention and affection.
About: I've lived with dogs for the last 7 years and I absolutely love it! Providing dogs with the exploration and happiness they need. Started Stride & Sniff to empart this love onto as many dogs as possible. We will continue to do so! I'm working nights, 6pm - 3am, so I have more than enough time during the day, to give your pets the attention and play time they need! Also provide weekend care as well! With my current client, I keep the back gate locked, to ensure a safe environment. And while walking, the dog stays on the lead, with a muzzle (requested), but if you have a nervous dog, that will be taken massively into account!
About: I have had cats for 19 years. Currently have 1 cat of 2 years old. My other cats reached 18. I love cats. They are so affectionate and great company. I work Monday-Thursday in an office but I am available on Fridays (I work from home) but that’s not a problem to do drop-ins. I can also do these at any time Saturday and Sundays I give cats lots of love and affection, stroking their fur and rubbing their bellies, feeding them, ensuring they have fresh water, toys to play with, ensuring they are safe, happy and secure
“Elle was great. Really helped me when I needed someone at short notice. Came and visited prior without hesitation and understood my boys behaviour when he displayed some anxiety. A great understanding of dogs and would definitely use again 🐾”

Daisy has been wonderful. She looked after my babies and made me feel at ease every day. She went above and beyond to make sure they were safe and comfortable. She sent regular pictures and detailed messages about where they were in the house and how much they were eating. I will definitely book Daisy again for my next holiday!
Jade was amazing!! It's hard to leave our 12 week kittens but I felt so comfortable with Jade. She approached them with such patience and care and they LOVED her. Jade dealt with their crazy kitten energy so well playing with them and cuddling them and her communication was great. I am so grateful to Jade and Gadget and Gizmo miss you!!!
Charlie and Hannah were amazing. Extremely communicative, came twice in one day to drop-in to look after our two girls. Even though I was out of the country I felt like I knew exactly how my two dogs were doing, the videos and photos showed my girls relaxed and happy. Will definitely be rebooking with Hannah and Charlie!
Iva was highly reliable and so importantly, kind and caring with Simba, who loved her! Iva sent us daily texts and pics of Simba, which was very reassuring. We'd have no hesitation recommending Iva and we will be asking her to help again with our next holiday.
Dr Zohreh was amazing. This is the first time we have used Rover and we’re very nervous about leaving our precious kitties. She was so kind and patient and treated Mac and Mitsy so well. I actually believe they still miss her. We will always use her in future Thankyou so very much
Emily recently looked after our cats, Poppy and Oscar, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. She gave our cats so much attention, and it was clear they were comfortable and happy in her care. We really appreciated the regular daily updates she sent, which always included great photos of Poppy and Oscar. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands and that everything was going well while we were away. Emily's communication was excellent, and her love for animals really shines through. We'll definitely be rebooking with her for our next trip. :)

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Ashford choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
