1. Andrea L.

“Andrea is genuinely the best provider of daycare I’ve ever come across, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. As I’m the proud owner of a lovely but fussy and spirited ageing daschund, it’s been historically tough to find someone who understands their needs. Andrea just gets it, being an owner of a lovely rescue daschund herself. Andrea was surprised when I said I’d never met someone so responsive and flexible as her either over the years - there’s always been some compromises with other daycare providers, but not here. Izzy (my daschund)) is the best judge of character, and within the first couple of visits to Andrea’s she was dragging me there in the morning, and running in to greet her not looking back at me once!. I’m so glad I found Andrea, it’s like Izzy has found a long lost family member who treats her as one of her own.”

“Nas was great! He sent photos of Noodle throughout the night to keep us up to date. Noodle was very happy.”


3. Chloe G.
“I have no hesitation to recommend Chloe as a pet-sitter/dog walker. My dog loves spending time with her and is always very excited to see her. Chloe is responsible, experienced, and understands the needs of individual pets. Coby is getting a little grey around the muzzle now and although loves to play still, and enjoys a good walk, he also loves to sleep, mainly curled up with Chloe and snoring happily. Chloe genuinely loves dogs, and animals in general. She is kind, caring and very happy to meet the needs of both pets and owners wherever possible. Coby has epilepsy and takes half an anti-seizure tablet twice daily. I completely trust Chloe to administer this and ensure he is safe and healthy. She also takes great photos, so will keep you updated of your pets adventures!”

“Blue was extremely helpful! Milo seemed to have gotten along with her Jack Russell, he had a blast! Thank you for looking after him x”


5. Lisa H.

“Mabel has had a fantastic day. Lisa was very friendly and accommodating at our meet & greet and I felt very confident leaving Mabel with her. I received lots of photos through the day and have just picked Mabel up, happy and exhausted from playing with Bella! I have already booked Mabel in for another day. Thank you 😊”


6. Kesava U.

“Vinnie stayed for 2 daytime sittings with Kesava. He had a great time, and was so happy to see him again on the second day. Kesava and his family were very kind , would happily book again”


7. Alexandra M.
About: I lived all my life around animals , especially dogs and cats and would be lovely to have some pet company in our house . We are a frendly quiet family I am a mom not working at the moment. I stay home with my nearly 2 years old daughter. So we are full time free for pet sitting . My fiance, Gabriel, is working full time job and when coming back home normally we go for walks or parks for half hour , one hour depends on the whether . We have a spacious house and a lovely fenced garden. I don’t provide any toys or food for dogs or cats. But they can easily play with old baby toys haha


8. Jessica J.
“My is so important to me so having someone like Jessica available to look after him is great. Jessica is forcible, kind and shows that this isn’t just a ‘paid job’ by how much she cares for Ronnie. Jessica has great communication and knows how to care for dogs”


9. Louisa T.

“Louisa was fantastic with Helga. We needed a sitter last minute and Louisa jumped in and saved the day. Our fur baby had the best of days and even had a bathed. Thank you, Louisa. We will definitely call you again next time we need a sitter. X”


10. Charlotte S.

“I couldn't be happier with Charlotte and the care she provided for my Ollie! From the start, she was incredibly responsive and made me feel confident about leaving my dog in her hands. Charlotte kept me updated with pictures and notes, showing how much attention and affection she gave to my dog. Ollie looked so happy and relaxed when I picked him up, which says everything”


11. Danielle W.

“Danielle is a fairy! She came to our rescue when we needed urgent doggy day care for our 10 month old cocker spaniel pup Buna, and we couldn't be more grateful for her services and help. She is very friendly and approachable, and you can instantly tell how loving and caring she is towards dogs (and probably other animals too). She clearly gives our furry child the required attention as Buna comes home exhausted after playing with Danielle's own dog Luna and their walks. We cannot be happier with Danielle and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter/boarding place in Dagenham. Thank you, Jelena & Melvyn”


12. José G.
“Well I was the first me that gave the idea to Jose to join Rover as I used to be a user before but as Jose had a dog as well I always asked for him to take mine on a walk. I have a German Sheppard, I never trained the dog but Jose had some training with a person from the neighborhood in the park and after that day he applied it on my dog, now he doesn’t bark when people ring the door, he doesn’t pull the lead anymore, and Jose stills takes him from walks despite have loosing his dog couple of months back. He an angel with pets.”


13. Elliott W.
“Elliott adores animals from the smallest to the biggest and has a very wide variety of knowledge on caring for and maintaining the well being of all animals. Having had a variety of pets himself over his lifetime from snakes, rabbits, dogs, birds and cats I can safely say anyones animals would be in great hands. He would also benefit from a job like this because he genuinely loves all animals like they are his own and enjoys what he gets out of it. Many thanks”


14. Audrey L.

“A+ I can't believe how lucky we were to find Audrey on Rover! She is a qualified professional who is naturally caring, patient, and fun. I had nothing to worry about when she took care of my little dog April for a day. April is nervous of new people but Audrey soon had her boldly exploring the house and giving puppy kisses. I received regular photos and they clearly had a great time together. I'll be reaching out to Audrey again for sure.”


15. Katherine C.
“Katie has great experience looking after dogs. She has looked after multiple dogs and always takes great care, communicates well and gives lots of good updates. I would definitely recommend Katie to look after your dog!”


16. Hannah K.
“To describe Hannah’s love for animals in particular dogs would take me an absolute age, so I will make this descriptive yet short. Having grown up around family dogs such as teddy, Barney and buster, she has always been such a loving and responsible person when it comes to the well fare and caring of dogs. A keen Walker, and play friend, she is always in the mood to keep the dogs occupied that she has encountered and been left responsible for. Our current family dog buddy is her best friend, inseparable at the best of times, and there is never a moment that goes by that he is not following Hannah around the house. There is no one better suited than hannah to look after 4- legged friends.”


17. ioana m.
About: Growing up i was surrounded by dogs, there have always been 2 dogs in the house for as long as I can remember, for about 8 years and a half with the help of my mother, I've nurtured my French bulldog who has a deformed lip and nose which automatically made him the runt of his litter, recently I have adopted another frenchie that was kept in very bad conditions making her nipples bleed and took 4 baths to fully clean her. However these 2 livly dogs love to go outside and play in the dog park that is around the corner. Before my frenchies i had a labrador, bishon frise, Yorkshire terrier, and others. I am in my last year of college, and because of my course I am in school 3 days a week, Mondays and theusdays I'm in college till 4 pm whereas Tuesdays I'm in till 12pm, therefore I have a lot of free time to work at home with dogs I have 2 dogs at home, and 8 year old frenchie who is castrated and a 3 year old frenchie who isn't neutered yet, I have a back garden that is fenced so they can play safely.


18. Joanne A.
“Joanne is the ultimate dog walker! Her genuine love for animals shines through as she takes them on joyful walks, creating a wagging wonderland for furry friends and my dog loved her.”


19. Gena T.
“Gena is the kind of pet caregiver every pet owner dreams of finding. She’s not just responsible and attentive—she genuinely loves my dog and cat as if they were her own. Knowing they’re with her brings me complete peace of mind, and I can’t recommend her enough.”


20. Carley R.
“Carley is great! She regularly walks and looks after my little Luna and I always feel reassured Luna is in the best hands. She stays in touch, sends photos and keeps me updated. 10/10 service!”
