“Tim was great, and our dog adored him immediately. We felt fully confident leaving our be to excitable and sometimes nervous girl in his care, she looked very happy in her walk photos. Will book him again!”

“I'm really happy with Ayla, she is obviously a dog lover and Poppy can't wait for her morning walk - I think she decides where they are going. I would recommend Ayla to anyone.”

“Gizem did a wonderful job walking Kaos daily for a week! She was professional and on time always. Kaos loved her and trusted her instantly. I will definitely lean on her whenever I need help in the future!”


“Madison was extremely conscientious and clearly cared about my dogs (and even my cat) when she provided dog walking services while I was away. Always timely and detailed in report cards, and with great photos to go with the write up, she was very responsive to any messages and gave me perfect peace of mind. I would definitely hire Madison again and would recommend her highly to a friend.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs through Rover for over three years, and during that time, I’ve had the joy of looking after some wonderful regulars, including Dude, Wally, Mabel, Herbie, and Pepper. They have kept me busy week after week, which is why I haven’t been taking on many new dogs recently, but I’m excited to welcome new furry friends again. I live with my partner in the heart of Bath on Great Pulteney Street, just minutes from beautiful parks, which is perfect for walks since we live in a flat with no garden. Most of the dogs I care for are dachshunds, so I know their big personalities, routines, and love of blankets and treats. We also happily welcome other small breeds, as bigger dogs just wouldn’t be fair in our flat. Caring for dogs has become such a big part of my life, and one day we hope to bring our own sausage dog home. I work full-time (9–5:30), but my day is already built around dog care. On weekdays, walks and potty breaks usually look like: - Morning walk before work (around 8am) - Lunch break walk - Afternoon walk when my partner gets home - Evening potty breaks around 8pm and 11pm (depending on needs and feeding schedules) Occasionally (usually Thursdays), I travel to London for work. If an owner is comfortable, I’m happy to bring their dog with me, as my office is dog-friendly. If not, my work is flexible and I’m able to skip the London visit that week, so routines at home stay the same. I focus on calm, safe, and consistent care, always following feeding schedules, walk routines, and any house rules you have in place. I’m comfortable administering medication if needed and keep owners updated with regular messages and photos. FOR DACHSHUND OWENERS: I’ve had the pleasure of caring for 4 dachshunds through Rover, so I know how important it is to protect their backs. We’re very mindful of IVDD, making sure to carry them up and down stairs, as well as equipped our sofa with dog steps. Every walk, play session, and cuddle is handled with care to keep them comfortable, happy, and safe while they’re with us.
About: I am a final year at the university of Bath studying biomedical science. I will be doing my masters at Bath university from September 2026, with the intention of beginning medicine in September 2027. I am a hockey player and long distance runner so I love staying active a LOT! I am very easy to talk to and friendly! I am diagnosed with autism and ADHD. I would like owners to be aware of this but not because it affects my role as a pet sitter but it’s good to be open and honest. If anything, it makes me more cautious, loving and caring! Being around animals is one of the most beautiful things in life and I love that I get to hang out with them! I have grown up around many pets, from chickens all the way to horses! I have had 4 cats in my lifetime, three rabbits, multiple hamsters and one precious dog. I truly believe I am very patient, caring and loving! I have experience with different temperaments and will handle any situations with the upmost respect and consideration of both the pet and owner. I enjoy keeping in touch with the owners throughout the day to let them know their pet is well cared for, as I can understand deeply about the love we feel as owners and wanting to know they are ok. I want anyone who is trusting me with their pet to trust me wholeheartedly and I try my best to ensure that. I’ve been very lucky to look after so many beautiful dogs, cats and rabbits. It is the most rewarding feeling. I can’t wait for many more bookings! I am a university student currently home for the summer and would love to take up a small flexible job to earn some money for my rent! I am available any time except from the 7th June-23rd June. I will offer dog walking services, and am available any time of the day. There is a field by mine that I can utilise or if the dog is more of a slow walker, I am happy to just walk them around the neighbourhood, whatever suits their needs!
“From the start Natalia was exceptional at engaging in fun physical activities with my anxious collie and providing calm authority for her. She provided 4 x one/ two hour walks per week for 4 weeks while I recovered from major surgery - always reliable and taking the initiative to reschedule during the heatwave. Highly recommended!”


About: I have spent my time with dogs of all breeds, shapes, and sizes! I have my own Havanese, who I helped train when she was a puppy, and taught her basic commands too. I have also spend time and am very comfortable with many other dog breeds, such as collies, Rottweilers etc. I adore dogs!! I am currently a student, and have no part time job. Therefore, I’d have lots of time to spend with your pets, and make sure they are getting all the care they need! I stick to your pet’s existing routine as closely as possible and give them all the love and attention they are used to! I will always leave the home as I found it, and keep you updated throughout.
“Saskia has been absolutely great walking our working cocker spaniel. Her communication and organisation are spot on so it's always easy to arrange/rearrange. Our dog is always well looked after and enjoys her walks - she always comes back well exercised, and we know we can trust Saskia to look after her.”

About: I grew up with a dog called Dave (my dads choice of name not mine). I was responsible for taking him on walks and looking after him when my dad was away. My mum also recently adopted a dog called Arlo, who I helped look after during COVID. I also worked at a dog friendly pub, and everyone says I give the dogs better service than the people 🤣 I work shift work so my schedule changed every week - however weekdays or evenings are most likely my available times to walk and look after your dog. In my own home, both of my pets were very well behaved so never ran away. They were also not allowed upstairs or allowed on the sofa.
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life and I have run my dog care business for nearly 3 years. I’m very passionate about what i do and care very deeply about the dogs I look after. I’ve got experience with highly energetic dogs and older slower ones and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes as I have two of my own who are very big, My older boy is disabled so I have lots of experience with special needs dogs. I also have experience with nervous and reactive dogs and take the time for them to get used me before I look after them I have endless patience when it comes to dogs and I happy to go for hour hike through the woods or an hour just potting around my local grave yard (which many of my clients love!) I run my own dog walking business so fitting you in with my routine won’t be a problem. I’m also free for dog walks and dog sitting throughout the week. Dogs will stay on the lead near road and livestock no matter their recall. I’ll always make sure your dogs are safe and well care for while they are under my care
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for pets has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have a corgi back home who has taught me so much about patience, consistency, and the importance of daily exercise and mental stimulation. Being a corgi parent has given me firsthand experience with high-energy dogs who need structure, engagement, and lots of affection. Beyond my own dog, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, daily walks, playtime, crate training, basic obedience reinforcement, and providing plenty of companionship. I’ve also handled medication administration and special instructions for pets who need a little extra attention. I’m reliable, attentive, and always communicative. I love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they feel connected and at ease while they’re away. My goal is to help every pet feel safe, happy, and loved, just like my corgi does at home. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own, and I look forward to giving your furry family member the same level of care. I'm currently studying a Masters in Clinical Psychology where I only have classes 2 times a week, which are on Mondays and Thursdays. I'm free to take your dog for a walk and care for it besides these 2 days. I'll be happy to do it on a weekly basis too. Respect for your home: I treat your space with care, keeping things clean and secure, and following your household rules. Maintain the pet’s routine: I stick closely to your instructions regarding feeding, walks, play, medications, and bedtime routines to keep your pet comfortable. Home security: I make sure doors and windows are locked, lights are adjusted as instructed, and your home looks lived-in while you’re away. Daily updates: I send photo/video updates each visit or day, including notes on eating, behavior, bathroom breaks, and anything unusual. Medication & special care: I am comfortable following detailed care plans, administering medications (if applicable), and monitoring pets with special needs. ❤️ My Approach Above all, I focus on building trust—with both you and your pet. I move at the animal’s pace, use positive reinforcement, and create a calm, safe environment where they can relax while you're away. Every pet is treated as if they were my own.

About: - Experience with multiple dogs and cats (3 dogs + 1 cat in my family) - Familiar with daily routines: feeding, walking, basic grooming - Experienced with long-term care (my pets lived up to 18 years) - Comfortable handling both small and large dogs - Able to follow detailed care instructions from owners I take this job as a part-time job. After May, as a graduate student at the University of Bath, I no longer have classes. So I hope to find a part-time job to support my living expenses in the UK. I can be available at any time during the day when you need me. But sometimes I will travel outside and need to confirm the time with me three days in advance. But most of the time, I am in Bath, UK. In China, I have three dogs and one cat. Usually, I take my dogs for walks in the morning, at noon, and in the evening. This is because over the past few years, I have been reading a lot, so I have plenty of time to take them for walks. I also pay close attention to their diet and avoid giving them anything they can't eat. I spend one to two hours playing with the cats every day, and the rest of the time I can be by their side, which is the ideal situation.

Absolutely amazing dogsitter! We felt completely relaxed leaving Ludo and Blue in such caring and trustworthy hands. Great communication, lots of updates, and you can tell there’s genuine love for dogs. They came back happy, calm and clearly very well looked after. Highly recommend!

I can’t recommend Yasmine highly enough as a dog walker. I’ve been using her services for over a year now, and she has been absolutely fantastic from day one. She is reliable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog, Max, absolutely adores her, which says everything. He gets so excited whenever she arrives, and it gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands. Yasmine always goes above and beyond to make sure he’s happy, well-exercised, and looked after as if he were her own. It’s not easy to find someone you trust completely with your pet, but Yasmine has truly earned that trust. I’m incredibly grateful for everything she does, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful dog walker. Ho I should mention I have a crazy border collie ! 😂

Henry walked my collie-cross every day for a week. Initially he was hesitant, but his calm and caring manner connected well with my dog from their first meeting. He was reliable, energetic and walked my dog off lead without problem. I will use his services again.

Coral took our French Bulldog, Leia, for her first walk last week and thoroughly enjoyed herself. Coral kept me updated throughout her time with Leia and also provided photos! We have now arranged a regular weekly schedule and I couldn’t be happier. I would highly recommend Coral 🤩🐾
