We met Sonia on Rover and she has been helping us with our greyhound Thom for the past 2 weeks and has been phenomenal. She has been doing midday check ins. We received detailed updates and photos. We had to make some last minute schedule changes and Sonia had no problem and was very kind and responsive. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for kind and reliable service:)

About: I am a reliable and experienced dog walker with many years of hands‑on practice, having started caring for family and neighbours’ dogs from the age of 10. I have looked after dogs of many different breeds and temperaments, providing walking, feeding, bathing and overnight care. I now also have my own dog, for whom I am fully responsible, further strengthening my practical experience and commitment to high‑quality care. I am currently on a gap year with no long‑term commitments, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I am able to work around you and your dog’s routine, providing the length and type of walks that best suit their needs. Although I have my own dog, walks will be focused solely on your dog, as mine will remain at home to ensure a calm, dedicated environment tailored to your dog’s needs. I have experience with training, larger breeds and puppies, and can confidently manage a wide range of dogs, whether they require on‑lead or off‑lead walks in line with your preferences.

About: Hiya! I’m Madi, a 20 year old second year university student studying Biology 🪴. I provide friendly and reliable dog walking, home visits, and house sitting. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, a quick pop-in for feeding and cuddles, or someone to stay overnight, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I have plenty of experience with pets of all ages and personalities, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to following your pets’ routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I offer tailored care for puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs, and I’m always happy to provide extra playtime, cuddles, or attention as needed. You can relax knowing your pets are getting the love and companionship they deserve. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life — I’ve grown up around animals and still spend time with pets every day. Caring for them fits easily into my weekly routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritise. I make time for regular walks, play, and companionship, and to fit in feeding schedules, toilet breaks, and special routines. Whether it’s a quick daily visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I will adjust my routine to make sure pets always get the attention and consistency they need. 🩷 In a pet owner’s home, I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walks to play, cuddles, and rest. I make sure their environment stays safe, clean, and comfortable, and I keep them company so they feel secure while their family is away. If I’m house sitting, I also take care of the home itself by keeping it tidy, watering plants, and ensuring everything is left just as you’d expect. My goal is always to provide loving, reliable care so pets stay happy in their familiar surroundings and owners have complete peace of mind.

About: I have been an animal lover as long as I can remember. I worked in a boarding kennel for 3 years in my late teens/early 20's and can manage most dogs and cats (even the snarky ones). I raised an abandoned Canada goose, several cats, a few ferrets and a canary so have extensive experience with many different types of pets. I now have my own companion, Dakota, who I waited 25 years until the work/family/home situation was right to own a dog responsibly. She has been a dream come true and has completed a long held desire for a Pembroke corgi. I have done all of Dakota's training and she is a good example of how clever corgi's can be (and also how stubborn). I currently work from home with one or two days travelling to site in Wales or Aylesbury. I can work from your location with good wi-fi. Animals are my passion and I would look after yours like they were my own. I have access to some wonderful fields for walking and a very friendly corgi to keep your fur-baby company. I can easily crate a small to medium sized dog if needed. I would look after your pets as if they were my own with lots of care and attention.

Ayla was fab at cat sitting for Tigs. She was easy to communicate with and sent us lots of photos/videos. Tigs was sick while we were away and Ayla let us know about this, confirmed there was no need to worry and cleaned it up. Would be happy to recommend her and book again in the future. Thank you!

About: I am from France and have owned and cared for dogs since I was 10 years old. I currently have two dogs who live with my parents in France while I am in the UK and I remain very involved in their care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and have also looked after friends’ dogs on several occasions. I treat other people’s dogs as my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for. I really miss being around dogs regularly, which is why I want to offer dog sitting. I am mostly available during weekdays as I am not currently working, especially late mornings, afternoons and evenings whenever possible. I can also be flexible on weekends. I live in a quiet top-floor flat with no other dogs in the building, which provides a calm environment for pets. I also live very close to a nice park, which is ideal for regular walks and exercise. When caring for dogs, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime and lots of attention and affection. I am attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether they prefer active play or a calmer environment and I always prioritise their safety and comfort. If I am caring for pets in an owner’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to maintain the dog’s normal routine and help them feel secure while their owner is away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid, including family pets, and I have done a lot of dog sitting for many friends/family members over the years. I have been on rover for over a year, looked after some lovely dogs, and have a few repeat customers! I work from home 2 days a week with minimal meetings, so I have plenty of time to pay attention to a pet, as well as take them for as many walks as needed. It would be great company for me too! I have a fenced garden and plenty of green areas near my home for walks. If the dog is crate trained there is room for a crate and that will be easy to accommodate. There are no other pets in my home so they will have the run of the place! If I am in your house, I will treat it like my own and always leave it as I found it.

About: I've had a Westie since I was 7 years old - he is now 15! I've loved growing up with him, training him and walking him. Now, he prefers cuddles and a leisurely stroll! I have also spent plenty of time with other dogs, including my grandparents' labrador and cocker spaniel - both are very high-energy and, as someone who loves exercise, I've loved being able to run around and explore with them, especially around the beaches where I grew up (in Devon). I’m currently a student at the University of Bath, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of availability during the day, evenings, and weekends. I can work around your routine to provide regular or occasional walks. I also love exploring Bath, so I’d be happy to take your dog on enjoyable, stimulating walks in safe and interesting areas. I provide safe, reliable, and attentive dog walking tailored to each dog’s needs. I always ensure dogs are securely handled on leads unless instructed otherwise, and I take care to walk in safe, dog-friendly areas. I pay close attention to each dog’s behaviour, energy levels, and any specific requirements, including feeding, water, or medication if needed during our time together. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll always keep you updated for peace of mind.

Courtney was great. Our Golden Retriever puppy of three months absolutely loved her and was very happy when we got back. Looked liked she played with him non stop! She sent a picture to let us know all was ok half way through the four hours which was a lovely touch. She dog sat at short notice, popped over even beforehand to meet the pup, and her communication was excellent. I highly recommend Courtney for any and all dog services she offers. Will be using regularly ✨

About: I have grown up with dogs and now have my very own called Monty. He is treated like the prince he is and your dog would be treated like royalty too. Monty is a very sociable dog who loves playing with other dogs! Although, he can be timid around humans so I have experience with shy pups. We live in Bath and are surrounded by National Trust sites that are very dog friendly so we tend to go on long walks daily. I am currently focusing on dog walking/sitting at the weekends for now to see how it goes. I am happy for any size or breed of dog. If you have any questions, please pop me over a message and I’d love to have a chat.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life - big and small, from Dobermans to Dacshunds! Along with this, I owned my own dog (a wonderful border terrier, Mabli) from a pup, so I completely understand the responsibilities, requirements and most importantly fun that comes with owning a pet. I have cared for family and friends' pets often throughout the years including elderly and disabled dogs. You can rest assured that I will take care of your pet as if it were my own, and follow any instructions that you have conscientiously! I can work from home any time, and also have a dog-friendly office - which I can take your pet into (only if it suits them, of course). I will diligently ensure anything that could be hazardous or problematic to your pet be kept out of their way. I’ll ensure they’re made to feel as comfortable as possible whilst they are with me.

We were pretty nervous as we had to leave our 4 month puppy for several hours on his own yesterday. Pippa was a fantastic solution, she looked after him, made sure he ate and peed and tired him out with play so that he was happy to go back to sleep in his crate. The pictures show that she got a big lick on the face for her trouble. I would thoroughly recommend her.

Emily was just great and kept us up to date even though we were on an off grid holiday with very mobile poor service. I really appreciated her sanding us photos as we really miss our cats when we're away. Will definitely be rebooking. Thanks Emily :)

Absolute Star - Cat did a phenomenal job with Louis, responding with great care and efficiency when Louis became unwell with a tummy upset during his time with her. She looked after him as if he was her own beloved and I cannot recommend her highly enough. There aren’t enough stars available to capture the full extent of our gratitude and now, happily, Louis is fully recovered and I think he can’t wait to see Cat again so he can thank her
