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:)
About: I’ve been around dogs from a young age and have always loved caring for them. I have experience looking after dogs by taking them for walks, making sure they are fed and have fresh water, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe and well cared for while you’re away. I’m reliable, caring and attentive, and I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own! 🐾 I’m currently working as cabin crew, so my working days can vary from week to week. However, I have around one week off each month, as well as days off throughout my roster. My schedule is set in advance, so I can plan bookings around my availability. While the days I’m available may change, the hours I’m available will remain consistent once agreed. Your pet’s safety and happiness would always be my priority. I would treat your dog with the same care, patience and attention that I would want for my own pet. I understand that being in someone else’s home comes with a lot of trust, so I would always respect your home, follow your instructions and keep your dog’s usual routine as much as possible. I’d make sure they are safely looked after, have fresh food and water, get the exercise they need and receive plenty of attention, affection and reassurance. I’d also keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away
“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 have just finished a university degree in Criminal Justice but I have always had a passion for dogs and other animals. This is why I have just completed an online dog walking course to help start a career in this field. I have been raised with dogs for most of my childhood and always been interested and passionate about providing the care that every dog needs. The dog I was most involved with in my teen years was a Labrador called Monty and was rescued from Labrador Welfare in Sheffield. He had many health problems and needed daily administration of care to ensure a good quality of life. My current best pal is a black Labrador called Luna who I have had since she was 8 weeks old and is nearing her 3rd birthday. She is strong willed with a very mischievous personallity. Despite our ups and downs in training she has made a obedient and a well behaved dog. From owning dogs, going on adventures, and meeting other dogs owners and their furry friends has made me realise that every dog has a different personality and have different needs, wants and temperaments. One of my aim is to ensure that every dogs holistic needs are met, and that these are somebody else's special family member. I feel dog walking and sitting is a very important of a dogs care because of exercise, digestion, interaction, discipline and bonding.Another aim is to maintain the upmost of health and safety of any animal in my care. This is because I realise an animal is an important member of the family and I would want to give the care that I would expect given to my pet.
“Great couple, clearly having a magic touch with cats. Biscuit warmed up to them very quickly and was very relaxed and happy when we came home, which is a great sign. They sent daily pictures and videos which was a great touch. We'll definitely book with them again.”

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.

“Elena responded very quickly to our enquiry to look after our cat Rosy while we were on holiday, and was proactive about understanding Rosy’s needs and routine, asking insightful questions. We received many photos and notes while we were away, which gave us plenty of assurance that Rosy was being cared for very well. We returned home to a happy and content cat! Elena patently loves cats and can be trusted to look after them - can definitely recommend!”

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bassetlaw choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
