About: Hello! I’m Kat and I could be your pets new best friend! I’m someone who has owned 4 cats, 2 hamsters and 2 rabbits total in my life. Right now I am a university student (meaning my schedule is very flexible to suit your needs!) and looking around to help out the community and their pets! I have been looking after pets since I was 4 years old! I have looked after many a pet! Some of them (not exclusive to) include: cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, terrapins and so many more! That’s mostly it from me! I cannot wait to hear from you! :) As said, I am a university student so my schedule is very open to your pet! Anytime that you need I will be available to look after your pet for any service! :) When looking after your pet I will stick close to the schedule planned and what is needed for your pet! Whatever needed I will happily do! :)
“Emily helped us at short notice and had great communication. My dogs are older and have medical issues and I felt like they were in great hands! Highly recommend!”

“Madison was fantastic! She kindly agreed to look after my dog, River, on fairly short notice and stayed at my house while I was away. River had such a great time with her – it was clear she was well cared for and given lots of attention. She also left my home lovely and clean and well looked after, which was such a thoughtful touch to come back to. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter, and I’d be happy to book with her again!”

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was born. We often look after foster dogs while they search for their home, from litters of puppies to senior dogs. In my teenage years I had many jobs dog-sitting for families when they went away on holiday. Hi, I’m Henry, I’m a final-year university student here in Bath who absolutely loves animals and spending time outdoors. Back home I have three dogs who I miss very much, so I’d love the opportunity to spend time with some four-legged friends while I’m studying here. I’m an avid runner and really enjoy being active, so I’d be more than happy to take dogs out for long walks or runs, depending on their energy levels. I’m available on weekdays and most weekends. I focus on being reliable, communicating clearly, and paying close attention to each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for—whether they’re with me or I’m looking after them in their own home.
“Micaela was absolutely wonderful. She is clearly an animal lover and so competent. We were so impressed and couldn’t have been happier. She sent daily updates with lots of photos, was helpful and flexible when we unfortunately had a delay to our flight and left the house in perfect condition. An absolutely perfect sitter that we highly recommend.”

“A lovely man! Olive immediately took to Cymon and was very happy. The house was left as found, and bed sheets stripped (thank you!). I'd definitely recommend. Many thanks again”


“Jess looked after Toast at our flat and was completely professional. We met prior to the booking so Toast would be familiar with her, and she was absolutely lovely throughout the whole booking. She kept regular contact with us and sent us loads of pics and updates, he loved spending time with her and we will definitely be booking with Jess again!”

“Ellie's been an absolute star! She looked after my old dog Liesel overnight while I was away, and she's been brilliant with everything - regular communication and photos, followed all instructions and left my flat lovely and tidy. Liesel seems very relaxed and happy (and tired, which I love coming back to!), I'm really grateful. Would 100% recommend :)”

“Frankie was super friendly and great with Fia. She was proactive and sent photos and updates regularly, and left the house lovely & tidy. We’d definitely use her again! Thanks Frankie!”

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.
“Tim took care of Kaos for a whole day while I was on a business trip. He followed instructions carefully and gave me priodic feedback with photos and videos. He took Kaos on fun walks and matched his energy in playtime. Kaos loved him immensely and I felt very confident that my puppy is in safe hands. Thank you Tim!”

“We can’t recommend Ian enough! Very knowledgeable about all things dog related & Lenny our 1 year old lab was completely at ease with from his 1st meeting. We had lots of photos of his adventures & it was apparentl that he was very well cared for . Thankyou so much & look forward to seeing you again soon 🙏🏻😀”

About: I’ve had my cat darcy (tabby cat) for roughly 10 years now, rescued by my sister on shift at the vets, I took him in as no one collected him and treated him for to health and he’s been my baby ever since. Then came cheeky Colin my labradoodle 6 years ago, absolute hype crazy of a dog but balanced out laid back darcy cat. Our family have lots of knowledge in the world of pets, my aunty being a dog trainer, my sister a vet and agility coach and my mother adopting and caring for stray dogs until they find a home, and my brother fully booked on this website! Therefore growing up with seeing and being a part of all this experience, I would say I’m well versed and surrounded by pet- knowledgeable family who have given me my love for pets! Available for anything from puppies to seniors, simple feeding or to play all day! Whatever your pet needs Currently working part time a couple days a week, no set times as rotas come out a couple weeks in advance but can request certain days or shifts lengths to suit you (min 4hrs) but am available in the evening or can pop in for quick feeds during the day if needed ! Live in the outskirts of the city and can drive so am able to travel to any location for feeds or to travel for long walks
“Kenna house-sat for us while we were away, and we came home to 2 very happy and contented dogs. Kenna sent us regular photos and messages, helping allay any guilt we had about leaving them! We would highly recommend Kenna’s services and hope to welcome her to our home again.”

About: I've always enjoyed being around pets. I grew up in the countryside surrounded by many different animals. During my teenage years, I helped with the family business as it progressed from a breeding kennels to a pet boarding service. This built my confidence with a variety animals and I am comfortable around giant dog breeds. I currently I live in a rented property that does not allow pets, and I miss the companionship of animals. I feel dog walking is a wholesome way to combine my love for animals whilst improving my fitness. Free meet and greet available - I believe its important to find a good match for your furry loved ones. I work bank shifts in a care facility that allows my schedule to be flexible. I am typically available during the daytime for home visits, walks and house sitting. I am available for overnight house sitting Tuesday - Saturday. I am unavailable Monday and Sunday evenings. If you need my services on a day that's blocked out on my calendar, please feel free to enquire anyway! It may just be I'm only available during certain time periods. Free meet and greet available - I'd love to meet with you and your pet before our first solo meet. This will help a smooth transition and ensure everyone involved is comfortable. I will greet your pets respectfully and approach them on their own terms paying attention to their body language and respond appropriately. Dogs will be kept on a leash throughout the duration of our walk together. I will ensure your property is secure upon my arrival and departure and follow any animal / property specific requirements as necessary.

“Bryony was fantastic with our dog Juno. She was kind, caring, and really attentive to Juno’s needs, which gave us great peace of mind while we were at work. She was also very flexible with times and days, which we really appreciated. Juno clearly had a great time with her, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book Bryony again. Highly recommend!”

Bath pet owners share their Rover experiences
Emily is fantastic! She took the time to get to know Rufus, his routines and the things we are working on with him to ensure she could be consistent when we aren’t there. Rufus loves playing with Emily and he is very excited when she comes to sit with him. We will definitely book her again!

We were so happy with Ashleigh’s two-day, overnight stay in our home with Remi. As this was the first time we had ever left her with someone she didn’t know, we felt quite nervous and anxious, but Ashleigh immediately put us at ease. The photos and regular updates were very reassuring and greatly appreciated. Remi clearly had a great time and was happy and relaxed when we returned. Our house was also left absolutely spotless — honestly, you wouldn’t have known anyone had been staying. We would use Ashleigh again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much, Ashleigh — from us and Remi 🐾

Coral was fab with our 3.5 year old cockapoo Ginny. Ginny has separation anxiety and can be quite fussy at times but Coral was great with her and kept us updated with messages and photos which put us at ease. Would recommend and will definitely book with Coral again!

Caitlin has been absolutely fantastic over the past week whilst we were away abroad - she looked after Furlo, our jackapoo for 7 nights, whilst staying in our house .... we've returned to a very relaxed and happy little doggie .... immaculate house and her communication was excellent throughout. I can't recommend her enough - I would definitely book Caitlin again if she is free when we need help with Furlo.
