“Gabrielle took such good care of Meg and was really thoughtful in messaging me to keep me updated with reports and photos of their time together. I know I can relax and trust that Meg is in safe hands with Gabrielle”
About: I'd like to just be clear that I am located in Askam in Furness, but due to the way I have set my service radius, I appear to live in Windermere. I am still happy to travel for overnight sits, but can only manage drop ins and walks near to Askam in Furness. I've provided lots of care for pets (mainly dogs, cats, rabbits and fish) of friends and family over the years from the odd walk to overnight house sits and have my own 12 year old cat at home. I've been sitting on Rover off and on for a couple of years now. I'm caring, patient and attentive and like plenty of information about your pet before a sit so that I can provide the best care for them. I enjoy being outside and like to spend free time exploring to new places, swimming or paddle boarding. I work locally and mostly remotely but have to go into the office every now and again. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I'm able to adapt my work day to keep to a pets routine. I'm fit and healthy and enjoy being outdoors so getting out for walks and exercise with a pet is no problem, and I have plenty of time for feeding, cleaning and play time! I provide pet-centred care. I like lots of details from a pet owner on their pet's routines and preferences so that I can try to make sure your pet experiences as little disruption as possible so they feel happy and comfortable with me, and this seems to have worked really well in the past! I'm by no means an expert behaviourist but I think I have a decent grasp of the ways pets communicate and can usually work out what they want/need at the time! I understand that simply not having their owner/parent around can be inherently stressful for some pets, so I do like to stick to established routines where possible and add in extra fun stuff - whether that's a drive or walk to somewhere new for new sights and smells, a trip to pets at home to get a new toy, or a good play session at home! I'll keep in regular contact with you, providing updates, asking questions if I need to, and sending pictures so you know your pet is happy and in good hands!
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have two cats of my own and have spent years walking and looking after family dogs, ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or daytime check ins, I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering reliability, patience, and plenty of love. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, as I am available in the evenings on weekdays, from 1PM onwards on Fridays, and all day on weekends. This flexibility allows me to provide regular walks, drop-in visits, and pet-sitting services while ensuring each pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s an evening stroll or weekend care, I am committed to accommodating the needs of both pets and their owners. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a pet owner’s home. I create a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment by following any specific instructions regarding feeding, routines, and special needs. I always ensure dogs are walked in safe areas, on a leash unless otherwise instructed, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and provide regular updates to give peace of mind. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for.
About: I have always absolutely loved animals especially dogs. I have grown up around all different breeds of dogs and I currently have two cocker spaniels who are crazy but I have so much love for them. I am confident with feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship, as well as following specific routines and instructions from owners. I understand the importance of keeping dogs safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away, and I am patient, reliable, and attentive to their individual needs. Whether it’s energetic dogs that need plenty of exercise or older dogs that require a calmer approach, I am comfortable adapting to provide the best care possible. I currently work part time so I will have so much fee time to spend with your dogs!! On a day to day usually I am caring for my two dogs and taking them on lots of walks. I am always making sure my pets are healthy and in a safe environment especially when my own dog loves to pick up rubbish everywhere she goes🫣
About: I have had pets since i can remember big and small. I have experience with taking care of mine and friends family pets from kittens and puppys to senior dogs. I love all animals and go the extra mile for perfect care. I do work part time but its mostly early mornings and late evenings so i have alot of free time to offer pet care services. I do not offer care in my home due to someone in my home having an allergy but i will treat any home i enter with respect and trust. I ensure a friendly safe and fun environment for your pet giving them the best experience while you are away with lots of updates and fun pictures!
About: I've looked after dogs since I was a child. Our house has always had dogs. They are treated as part of the family. Currently, i have a chocolate lab called Bramble and a rescue collie called Billy.I regularly walk dogs for people around the beautiful South Lakes countryside. Your dog will get two long walks during their stay and lots of cuddles and play time. I work from home, so your pet will get lots of attention and cuddles. They will be treated as part of our Dog Squad family. Every pet is treated as if it is my own. We have a very large garden and access to the beach, fells and moorland of Furness. I can crate your pet if required but usually your pet will be treated like my own. They will have access to dog beds and toys. They are welcome on furniture and beds,because after all, they are guests of the family.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Barrow-in-Furness. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
