Ronnie is a wonderful dog sitter with a beautiful family, and we felt completely reassured throughout. We wholeheartedly recommend Ronnie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter — we’ll definitely be using her again in the future.

Paco feels right at home with Andrea! He’s stayed with her multiple times, and she totally gets his needs, giving him amazing care every time. It’s such a relief knowing he’s with someone so caring and attentive. Couldn’t recommend her more to anyone looking for a reliable, loving dog sitter!

Have never boarded my little rescue dog, Charley, and was very apprehensive how he would react as he is very clingy and likes to be with you all the time. Sharon sent me daily photos and little notes on how he was doing, and this really put my mind at rest. I could tell he had a lovely time as after his initial mad greeting, he went over and sat back on Sharon’s lap! 🤣 definitely boarding Charley with Sharon again. Her little dog Lula was so good with Charley as well. Thank you Sharon!

Owen & Renata are just the best people to leave you dog with. They are really attentive and knowledgeable dog aware people. Their own little dog Pepsi is a patient and calm influence for our boisterous young puppy. They send you lots of photos of your dog and they allow your animal to become a part of their home (they are true dog people who welcome your dog with love and care and kindness).5 star.

We couldn't be more grateful to Andrea for taking such wonderful care of Toby while we were away on holiday. From the moment we left, we knew he was in safe and loving hands. Andrea kept us updated with messages and photos, which really put our minds at ease. Toby looked happy, relaxed, and clearly adored his time with her. It’s clear Andrea genuinely cares for the pets she looks after, and we feel so lucky to have found her. We wouldn’t hesitate to ask her again or to recommend her to others!

Ozzy had the most amazing time staying with Rosie! I messaged Rosie to see if she would be able to have Ozzy for me whilst I went away for the weekend. From the very start Rosie was really friendly and happy to do a meet and greet to make sure Ozzy would be happy and comfortable staying with her which also really put me at ease knowing he would be well looked after. The whole time I was away Rosie provided me with amazing updates/ photos of all the activities they were getting up to and the little bromance that Ozzy and her dog Dave had blossoming. Thank you so much Rosie for looking after my little stinky man and taking such good care of him. We 100% will be using you again and can’t recommend you enough! 😁🩷

This was the first time I was leaving my cat with anyone so I was slightly worried but Johanna communicated well and often from the meet and greet , allowing me to stay in her space to settle Bubbles in and kept me regularly updated whilst I was away which eased any worries I had. Fantastic individual and would highly recommend! I know Bubbles is in safe hands with Johanna!

About: New users get £15 off their first booking with Rover with code JESSR71897 📣 I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently co-care for our 2 wonderful cocker spaniels with my mum - Lil who is a lively 12-year-old that I’ve raised from a puppy, and Oscar who is a sweet but deeply anxious 7 year who we rescued from a life of trauma from a rescue centre in Wales. Supporting his recovery has taught me so much about patience, gentleness, and tuning into what each dog really needs to feel safe ☺️ I’m currently in between jobs, after stepping away from a high-stress work environment to take a break, reconnect with what I love, and focus on what brings me joy and calm - animals being a huge part of that. Right now, I’ve got all the time in the world to give your dog my full attention, whether that’s long walks, sofa snuggles, or just being a calm, steady presence in their day 🧡 Whether I’m caring for a playful pup or a nervous older dog, I treat them like family - because they are. My approach is grounded, loving, and always tailored to what helps your dog feel their happiest and most relaxed self 🐶 I’m currently in between jobs after stepping away from a high-pressure role, and I’m taking this time to slow down, reset, and focus on the things that bring me joy, animals being a huge part of that. I have plenty of time and flexibility in my days right now, which means your pet will get my full attention and care. Longer term, I plan to return to work in a remote or hybrid role, so dog care will continue to be a natural and regular part of my home routine. I’m used to balancing focus time with dog walks, cuddles, and play breaks — it’s honestly the best way to spend a day! I live in a spacious, pet-friendly flat with no other animals or children, so dogs in my care get a calm and quiet environment with lots of one-on-one attention. While I don’t have a private garden, I’m surrounded by green spaces just a short walk away — including parks and a beautiful riverside path that’s perfect for regular walks and toilet breaks. I co-care for my mum’s two cocker spaniels, Lil and Oscar — they live with her full-time, so they won’t be in the home while I’m caring for other dogs. But if your dog enjoys the company of others, they’re both lovely, gentle, and very sociable — so play dates can absolutely be arranged if that’s something your pup would benefit from! Whether I’m looking after a dog in my own space or staying in their home, I aim to stick closely to their usual routine — from walk times and feeding to any special quirks, meds, or cuddles on the sofa. I want your dog to feel safe, happy, and totally at ease while you’re away — and I’ll always send regular updates so you can relax, too.

About: I cared for a dog in a private family for almost two years, where I was fully responsible for her daily needs. I walked her regularly, fed her, gave her baths, and dried her after. This experience taught me to be patient, consistent, and attentive to a dog’s routine and comfort. I treat every dog like my own — with love, care, and respect. I also understand how important it is to follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I live in a cozy, child-friendly home with my 2-year-old child. We also live close to a park, which is perfect for daily walks and outdoor playtime. I’m home most of the day and can give your dog lots of attention, comfort, and care. I will treat your pet like part of my family. In my home, I provide a calm, caring, and safe environment for dogs. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special needs. I take the dogs out for regular walks in the nearby park, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they feel relaxed and loved. My home is child-friendly and quiet, so your dog will feel welcome and comfortable during their stay. I treat every pet like part of the family.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life — I grew up with dogs and cats, & I now share my gorgeous dog Madison with my ex, & so only have her 50% of the time. She's truly the love of my life, & so I know first hand just how much a pet means to their owner. When Madison isn’t with me, I really miss the companionship, which is why I’d love to spend time with other pets on my Madison-free days. I also occasionally look after my mum’s dogs (2 x cockapoos) and cats (2 x ragdolls), so I’m used to a variety of personalities, temperaments, and needs. Whether your pet is full of energy or prefers a gentler pace, you can trust that I’ll care for them with the same love, attention, and respect I give to Madison — as if they were my own. I work full time, but I work from home 4 days a week. I typically go into the office on a Thursday & have Madison Thursday evening-Sunday morning (although this can vary based on plans/holidays). I'm not yet in a position where I can board/daycare at my home whilst I have Madison, as she can be a bit scared of dogs she doesn’t know, but I should usually be able to offer drop in sessions at your home, or walks on those days. I have a one bedroom ground floor apartment, with a spacious living room. There isn't a private garden, but there are communal gardens just outside, and a big park three minutes away which is where I typically take Madison for walks. I have dog beds, plenty of dog toys, dog stairs to access the sofa (for any who struggle with jumping due to IVDD/back issues) and feeding bowls. Madison is not crate trained, and so I don't own a crate, but can of course use yours whilst here if needed. Pets are welcome on sofas/beds should this be something you're happy with. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else's care, so I treat every animal with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own.

Jess has been an incredible support with our two cocker spaniels, Lil and Oscar. She’s helped care for Lil since she was a puppy 12 years ago, and when we adopted Oscar, who came to us with significant trauma, Jess was patient, calm, and incredibly intuitive with him from day one. She’s always tuned into what the dogs need, whether that’s play, space, cuddles, or calm structure. They both completely adore her, and I trust her completely with their care. I honestly think they listen to her better than they do to me! Any dog would be lucky to spend time with Jess — she treats every animal with love, kindness, and respect, as if they were her own.

About: I cared for a dog in a private family for almost two years, where I was fully responsible for her daily needs. I walked her regularly, fed her, gave her baths, and dried her after. This experience taught me to be patient, consistent, and attentive to a dog’s routine and comfort. I treat every dog like my own — with love, care, and respect. I also understand how important it is to follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I live in a cozy, child-friendly home with my 2-year-old child. We also live close to a park, which is perfect for daily walks and outdoor playtime. I’m home most of the day and can give your dog lots of attention, comfort, and care. I will treat your pet like part of my family. In my home, I provide a calm, caring, and safe environment for dogs. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding times, walk schedules, and any special needs. I take the dogs out for regular walks in the nearby park, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they feel relaxed and loved. My home is child-friendly and quiet, so your dog will feel welcome and comfortable during their stay. I treat every pet like part of the family.

Loren looked after our two dogs, two cats and our chickens whilst we were away on holiday, and we couldn't have asked for better care. From the moment we met Loren, it was clear how much she genuinely loves animals — our pets took to her straight away. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Loren is reliable, warm, and clearly treats every animal as if they were her own. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.
