About: Hellooo I’m Phoebe, I’m a qualified veterinary surgeon and starting a new role which means I’ll have some days off during the week and weekend. I grew up at a child minders who also had a pet sitting service, so from a young age have looked after anything from hamsters and tortoises to large-breed dogs. I have my own dog and tortoise who I adore! As a vet, I’m comfortable with giving medications at home and following your pet’s routine as closely as possible! I have an attention to detail and am more than happy to give you regular updates and photos. I’ve been working as a vet now for 2 years and starting a new role this summer! I have my own tortoise and dog who I adore. In my new role at work my shifts are constantly changing, which means available dates are not regular. But we can have a chat about what you and your pet need and work out a plan from there! On weekdays I can possibly do drop ins before and after work for cats, so just drop me a message to check dates that aren’t available on my calendar. I believe all pets are different in terms of what they need when their pet parents are away or busy. Sometimes this is a change of environment and other times it’s home stays. Unfortunately since I am in rented accommodation I cannot provide overnight stays, but I can walk dogs and do drop ins for a variety of pets. I can also house sit during the day. Due to my own pet responsibilities, overnight house sitting is not ideal.

About: Hi I’m Fran and am passionate about providing a fun and loving care experience for your beloved pets. We have nurtured rescue cats and dogs over many years. Rabbits, rats, gerbils and tortoises have also been part of our little menagerie. Animals have always been part of our family life and our home is feeling a little empty now the children have flown the nest and Kitty left us for cat heaven recently. Myself and husband can offer a roomy, quiet home from home, with an enclosed garden. I can offer home stays, home visits, daily walking please feel free discuss you and your pets needs; as I’m super flexible. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they'll be treated as if they were my own. I’ll provide clear communication, so you'll receive regular updates on your pet's well-being while you're away. Whether it's ensuring they get their medications, exercise, or cuddle time, I'm committed to maintaining their routines and keeping them happy. I’m currently at home full time, so have space and time to look after your pets needs with my full attention. My husband also works from home, so someone is about even if I have to pop to the shop. Can offer cuddles and hugs for any other animals that need the care whilst you’re away, happy to discuss. I can work with you to tailor care in our home, or at yours. I’m happy to discuss regular or occasional walks, day or overnight care. We have a fully enclosed garden, plenty of space at home, a car for visits and doggy days out.

About: Since a young age both Fra and myself have cared for animals. We both had cats and dogs in our homes since birth and have looked after them with utmost care and attention. In our adult years we have taken house sitting seriously and have cared for several homes and a variety of pets. From dogs and cats, to lizards, frogs and guineapigs, we've cared for them all. Pet care takes priority when it comes to our weekly routines. We have various jobs and hobbies, yet we are very flexible and can usually cater to the needs of the animals are the requests of the pet owner. We always take the pets care requirements into consideration. Most pets will require different attention and we make sure to provide what is required. Whether it's walking, feeding, washing or general health care, we have the experience and understanding to provide great pet care.

“So pleased with the service provided from Cherie today! The app is brilliant, I would say that after doing a long shift at work and leaving my house cat alone for that long always leaves me feeling uneasy but being new to the area, I couldn't ask anyone to just drop in. Trilby has been introduced to a new friend whilst I'm at work and its gone amazingly. The photo updates were very lovely and gave me piece of mind at work! Definitely worth doing again and has given me confidence to think re. Future plans about possibly having a house sitting booking 😊 thank you. She definitely got the attention that I would have expected. I have heard of some reviews where poeple go in and read a book whilst being paid....I was looking for more interaction with my house cat so I come home on a Monday evening with a less energetic kitty and that's what I had. 💕🤗 x”

“First time with Rover / Rachel M. So pleased our anxious pomeranian was able to be cared for in the familiar surroundings of his own home. The regular updates were reassuring. Would not hesitate to leave Harley in Rachel's care again.”

About: I have been working with animals since I have been 17 and I just love the way every dog is different and I enjoy going out with walks and feeding them every morning my own dogs have their own set routine in the morning I am currently not working at the moment so I have seven days a week to look after any other animals and any sort of animals I have worked in kennels before and had to stay there overnight to make sure all the animals were safe and fastened into that tense

About: Hi - I’m new here on Rover, but I’m certainly not new to dog walking and animal care ! I am a fourth year vet student with a special interest in dogs, cats and all our other small furry, fluffy and feathery friends! I have experience with dog walking having spent a year as a Cinnamon Trust Volunteer. Alongside this volunteering, I have spent extensive time in animal rescues, including employment at Romney House Cat Rescue Centre, and experience at Brighton RSPCA, and Foal Farm Animal Rescue Centre. I also volunteer regularly for street vet, a charity that provides medical care and supplies to homeless individuals and their pets across Bristol. Alongside my degree I have completed a total of 20 weeks in vet surgery’s across the country. This has left me with a strong grasp of animal first aid that will allow me to ensure your pet is both happy and healthy when with me. I am fond of all creatures great and small, and also have experience working on yards, dairy farms and lambing. I would love to walk your dog on any agreed time outside of my University hours. This includes - before 9am or after 5pm during the weekdays and any time on the weekends. I can also offer lunch time walks on Wednesday from 1pm onwards. Being one year away from a qualified vet means I have a solid understanding of animal health, wellbeing and happiness. I will use this knowledge to ensure me and your pet always have the best and safest time when together.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs through family pets for many years, and for the past three years I’ve been the proud owner of two dogs, Teddy and Aya. They’re both energetic, loving, and very social dogs who keep me active and on my toes every day. Caring for Teddy and Aya has given me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic training, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable in my care. They love being around other dogs and especially enjoy playtime, so your pup will always have friendly company. While my experience hasn’t been professional, I truly love dogs of all breeds and sizes and treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m excited to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care and make sure your dog feels happy and at home while you’re away. I’m always happy to send updates, photos, and messages while you’re away so you can see how your dog is doing and feel at ease. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every dog with the same care and love I give my own. I currently work part-time from home, which allows me plenty of time to give your puppy lots of attention, care, and play throughout the day. I’m available Monday through Saturday and can be flexible to meet your pet’s needs. I have a fenced front porch as well as a garden where dogs can enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Inside the home, dogs are welcome to relax freely and be included in daily activities. At night, I usually allow dogs to sleep in the bed with me for comfort and companionship, but I’m also happy to use a crate if that’s what your dog is used to or if you prefer. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions regarding routines, sleeping arrangements, feeding, and care to ensure your pet feels at home and well cared for.

About: I started my Veterinary Nursing training when I was 18 years old and have not looked back since! I trained at an animal shelter practice and therefore have a good understanding of dogs with individual needs and temperaments. I have since qualified as an Emergency and Critical Care Nurse and now work as a Nursing Manager at a Large Veterinary Referral Hospital. I am certified in both Basic and Advanced Life Support/CPR and am happy administering all types of medications including injections. In addition to my extensive Veterinary experience I have also grown up with dogs and love to care and support them in all stages of their lives! I have been trusted by neighbours, friends, family and clients to look after their dogs before, even those with very advanced medical conditions and I am therefore comfortable caring for dogs that have a range of training and medical needs. I am passionate, fun and have a lot of love to give! If you have any questions please just get into contact and I will be happy to help! I understand trusting someone to look after your best friend and companion can be a lot, so if you want to talk things through with me regarding your pet’s individual needs, just let me know! 🐾 My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to provide attentive and consistent care throughout the day and adapt to your pet’s individual routine and needs. Whether your dog enjoys lots of walks and playtime, or your cat prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I can tailor my care to suit them perfectly. I am available during both weekdays and weekends and can often accommodate bespoke arrangements, medication schedules, and additional check-ins where needed. With my veterinary nursing background, I am confident caring for pets with a wide range of medical, behavioural, and emotional needs. I genuinely love spending quality time with animals, from long walks and enrichment for energetic dogs to cuddles, companionship, and gentle care for cats. My priority is always to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you are away 🐾 We live in a detached house in Cheddar. We have a secure fenced garden with grass and patio to suite your dog’s toileting habits! And also have direct access to public footpaths which take you onto stunning open fields.

About: About Me I have a genuine love for animals, especially dogs, and have over 10 years of experience owning and caring for dogs. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of hands-on experience understanding different personalities, needs and routines, from energetic and playful dogs to those who prefer a little extra patience and attention. I’m caring, responsible and attentive, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I always aim to make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable while in my care. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, providing companionship or simply giving them lots of love and attention, I’m passionate about making sure every dog has a positive and enjoyable experience. My Schedule I work part-time, which gives me a good amount of flexibility. I’m available for longer stays and weekends, and I can also work from home when needed, allowing me to provide companionship and care throughout the day. I’m happy to provide care in your home and keep your pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I can be flexible with dates and routines and will always do my best to work around your pet’s needs. How I Care for Dogs in My Home I have a spacious home with a large, secure fenced garden, giving dogs plenty of room to relax, play and enjoy some fresh air safely. I love creating a calm, comfortable and welcoming environment where dogs can feel at home. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime and plenty of attention and cuddles. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and make sure they feel safe and settled. Your dog will receive lots of love, care and companionship while staying with me, and I’ll treat them as part of the family.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old and have always had a genuine love for animals. Over the years I’ve looked after dogs for family, friends, and neighbours, and I also volunteered at a local animal shelter where I gained hands-on experience working with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and basic grooming such as bathing and brushing. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, so I always aim to give them plenty of attention, patience, and affection. I’m reliable, responsible, and happy to follow any specific routines or instructions your dog is used to. Whether it’s a long walk, keeping them company during the day, or helping them burn off some energy, I’ll make sure they’re well looked after and happy. I work from home a lot and have a lot of weekends spare so have plenty of time to give attention to dogs! I have lots of patience and years of experience with family dogs! I have a fully fenced garden and live on a quiet estate, which provides a safe and calm environment for dogs. Your dog will have plenty of secure space to play, explore, and relax without any safety concerns. I always make sure pets are supervised and comfortable so owners can feel confident their dogs are in a safe and caring environment.

“Tiffany was brilliant, the cats were very comfortable with her and she was great at administering several medications for one of our cats. She kept us updated and we will definitely book again.”

About: I love animals and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I have a miniature Jack Russell called Floyd and love spending time with and walking other dogs, often dog sitting for friends and family. I live in a rural area surrounded by fields and have a large secured garden where your furry friend can come and go as they please. I know how to make your dog feel safe, secure and loved and can give you complete peace of mind when they're in my care. I know the importance of good exercise and stimulation for your dog and have a lot of experience with nervous and hyperactive dogs. I know it can be tough finding the right person to look after your furry friend but you can rest assured with me.

“We couldn’t be happier with Julie’s dog-sitting services! She took care of our two dogs for six consecutive days, dropping in to feed them, let them out for bathroom breaks, and making sure they were happy and comfortable. Every day, she sent us wonderful updates and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she looks after. Reliable, professional, and kind—Julie is fantastic, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter! 🐾😊”

About: My whole childhood involved Dogs, I have also looked after several friends dogs due to my job being home based and flexible on times. I came across Rover as I was seeking a House Sitter and decided that I can give back. I have 2 dogs myself who are all friendly and have different needs due to their ages so can be tailored to your dogs requirements. I work from home and have flexible hours. I have a large garden that dogs can go in and out of the house as they please. We have a field next door which is great for a 25 /35 minute walk. I tend to run my two younger dogs and then a slow plod for my eldest. I have helped various neighbours with their dogs for days as my work is home based and flexible for your dogs and requirements can cater for all.

“Izzy is lovely, thoughtful and keeps me updated about how Penny is doing. Would definitely recommend and I have already booked Izzy in the help with Penny in the future.”

About: I’m 27 years old and have lived with dogs my whole life. I am currently living with a cat named Gizmo who is around 1.5 years so I am very happy to look after cats too! :) At home I have a Miniature Schnauzer and a Welsh Terrier in my that I’ve looked/helped look after since I was little :) I did the more practical and ‘harder’ jobs starting at 13 years old! I love dogs ever so much and enjoy being around them whenever I can. I regularly walk a Miniature Schnauzer and Doberman called Max & Grace from Borrow my Doggy who I have created a lovely relationship with for about 4 years now. This has helped me gain experience professionally with dogs other than my own as I have helped assist with socialising them, recall and good walking habits. As I’ve been around dogs practically my whole life, I’m confident with any dog of any age that needs to be walked, given attention and cuddled! I’m easy to talk to, a hard worker and I follow instructions well to cater to any dog’s needs. Currently working from home on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and in the office on Tuesdays & Thursdays - I am available any evening, all day on my non-office days as I work from home! I have a driving license so I’m happy to travel by car to your house or do any type of work whether it’s a one off situations or for many weeks. I am able to house sit and come to you in order to look after your furry friend and I am happy to do a video or phone call before in order for you to get a sense of who I am and vice versa!
