“... after being let down at short notice [day before] by another Sitter who decided to 'go travelling' over the new year period, Kayleigh stepped in just when we thought we'd have to cancel the holiday. She is great! Very attentive, punctual, and Sully our BSH, who is usually shy with visitors took to her straight away. The photos she sent every day on her visits proved it. Kayleigh did a great job overall, and she's on my 'fast dial' list for future trips we are planning. Thanks for helping us out Kayleigh! We'll speak soon, I'm sure.”
About: I have over 2 years of professional experience working in a dog kennel environment, where I gained hands-on experience caring for and handling a wide variety of dog breeds, sizes and temperaments. I also hold a Level 2 Animal Care qualification, giving me a strong foundation in animal welfare, care and handling. I am confident working with different personalities and individual needs, and I always aim to provide a safe, caring and positive experience for every dog in my care. Your pet’s wellbeing, happiness and safety are always my top priorities. 🐾 Mostly available between the hours of 9-3 day time. Evening appointments from 8pm can be discussed also:) Any questions please do ask so we can find the best times and days for your furbaby:) I have experience with the use of keysafe entry and being in possession of keys to properties. I offer one to one pet care and pet walks so no need to worry if your pet is a little reactive or struggles with nervousness:)

“Delenn was great at taking care of our cat Ian, communication was quick and pleasant, we had photo updates. I felt safe leaving Ian with her. Would definitely ask for her help again. Thank you!”
About: I’ve always grown up with animals. From cats and dogs, to chickens, horses and even some cows. My parents didn’t let us opt out of cleaning up either so there’s not much mess which bothers me. Since I was 16 I’ve been taking care of the local communities pets including puppies and giant (fluffy!) wolf dogs. Any pet, no matter the size or age I’m happy to care for. Now I’m away from home I miss the presence of pets in my life so will be more than happy to take any hours necessary. I’m currently working on my writing, working freelance while I search for a full time job now that I’ve graduated. Very available and flexible ‘z I love going on long walks with my puppies, potentially feeding too many treats (but out of love) and giving lots of cuddles. With cats I am very good at reading their signals, whether they want lots of attention and play or a bit of space, I’m happy to oblige!
About: lost my beloved soul dog in Jan 2024 and so am looking to help out other pawrents who need their fur babies looking after!! And of course in return I get to be in the company of furry friends who we all know are the best company! I absolutely love animals and dogs especially and know from experience how worrying it can be leaving them behind for trips etc and so would love to be able to offer the reassurance that your pet would be well and truly spoilt in my hands! I am a very reliable person and will follow any requirements or instructions to the letter as they’re your babies and you know them best. Prices can be negotiated as although I am skint, ultimately all I need is some doggy cuddles and the money is just a bonus if it’s there😂 Please don’t hesitate to get in touch and we can have a chat :) xx I’m a psychology student who is obviously not at uni for the summer and although I have a part time job, id much rather be looking after your pets!! I am unable to have pets in my current living situation however I’m more than happy to allow your dog to be looked after in its own home which I think also allows your dog to feel safe in its familiar surroundings even when they may feel strange that you’re not there.
“Beth looked after my trio over Christmas, she kept us updated with videos and photos the whole time. Very trust worthy, the trio were well looked in on and loved the attention she gave to them Thank you Beth ☺”
About: I grew up basically on a small holding with hundreds of animals, my childhood home was like a mini zoo, always around dogs/cats and various exotic species. My family bred various breeds of dogs and ive always loved cats, dogs and dog training. My family always had 4/5 minimum at one time so home doesn't feel like home without lots of wagging tails around. Since leaving college and university my career has been within the animal sector. Vet nurse Farm manager Zookeeper Animal educator / educational presenter Reptile keeper Pet therapy dogs Animal therapy provider Kennel worker These are the job titles ive held over the years. I have a National Diploma in Animal Management and care I have a Degree in Animal Care & Zoology I am level 3 dog and cat first aid trained and have frequent refresher courses. I am a DEFRA trained and qualified microchip implanter so I see many dogs and cats from all walks of like and temperaments. I have completed various courses for feline behaviour and also dog behaviour & training. I work from home, animals are my life and my household revolves around my pets. Every day all my dogs and cats are fed, cleaned cuddled and cared for. I'm with them throughout the day for extra play, training and of course lots of walks and cuddles. My life revolves around my pets and it's always been this way. I will always provide the same love, care and attention to any pet coming over for their short / long stay. They'd be treated as part of our pack, as part of our family whilst here ❤️ I have plenty of spaces for additional dogs, either to be with my own dogs OR to be separated if wanted/needed. I have a dog living room , a cat living room and a living room spare for anyone who likes to be alone and wants peace and quiet can relax. I have many spaces for cats as my cats have the entire house to roam free but I also have an animal room attached to the house that turns into a cattery or kennels if any owner prefers their cat/dog to be separated from the pets I have. My animal room is spacious and kept clean. It has many beds and hideouts as well as a TV and sofa bed so any cat or dog will feel at home. Its easy for me to go in there and chill out watching TV giving cuddles creating that homely experience for any pet staying. I have a garden that's fully secured with fencing and 2 garden gate system for extra security. The property is covered with cameras and has 24/7 CCTV surveillance. I like to always give owner updates and keep in contact, providing videos and photos of how their family member is getting on for reassurance.

There are 827 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Bassetlaw. About 91% of Bassetlaw sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. 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.
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.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
