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

About: I've grown up with both cats and dogs and have always been surrounded by animals. Over the years, I've regularly looked after the pets of friends and family, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and care needs. A few years ago, I volunteered at a dog shelter in Cape Town, which strengthened my passion for working with dogs. Since then, I've cared for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments in my local community. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and administering medication when needed. Most of all, I have a big heart and a genuine love for animals. I'm honest, reliable, and attentive, so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your pets will be treated as if they were my own. I'll make sure they receive plenty of love, care, and attention, and I'll enjoy every moment spent with them. I always adjust my schedule to meet your pet's individual needs. As pet sitting is my full-time focus, I'll be with your pets for the majority of the day, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, love, and companionship. Your dog will enjoy regular walks suited to their personality and energy level, whether that's exploring the countryside, playing fetch at a local park, or socialising with other friendly dogs. Every walk is designed to keep them happy, active, and engaged while maintaining their usual routine. Safety and security are my number one priority. I will always discuss your dog's recall, temperament, and how they interact with other dogs and people, and I will carefully follow any advice or requests you provide. Your dog will only be let off lead with your permission and only in safe, secure areas. I aim to keep to your dog's usual routine so they feel comfortable and settled while you're away. If they enjoy the company of other dogs, I can provide group walks. If they prefer one-to-one walks, I will happily accommodate that too.

Ian was an absolutely brilliant sitter. He was kind to our pets and provided frequent updates with pictures. We much a late change to our booking and he was far more accommodating than expected. Would 10/10 recommend using him.

Mika was absolutely superb! Arthur took to her straight away and was happy to be left in her care. Mika was kind, confident and keen to know how to best meet Arthur's needs. He is a strong-willed, high-energy, large adolescent male, who can be tricky. Mika managed him perfectly. He was clearly excited to see her, but was also able to relax. Mika was also fantastic with ensuring I could get off to work without worrying- highly organised, communicative and trustworthy. Thank you, Mika!

About: Ever since I can remember I have been surrounded with cats and loved every minute with them. Family and friends always know that they can rely on my to take care of their pets. Although I have not professionally looked after animals, I have been surrounded by them my whole life and have always had a close bond with animals. Thank you for reading! I am currently a student at university so my time is quite flexible. I also look after a cat which has been coming to my home every day and giving them plenty of play time and comfort! When looking after someones pet I always make sure to check with the owner of common places that their pet likes to go to, if they are indoor or outdoor, and things which make the pet happy, such as certain foods or ways to be pet. I also am completely able to follow a heavy detailed schedule, but may ask a few questions about certain details!

Coral was a lovely cat sitter for our Storm. Coral sent messages and photos throughout the day. I could tell from the photos that Storm felt comfortable and at ease. Coral obviously has a natural and calming way with animals and in tuned to her needs (and she’s a Bengal!). Coral was also incredibly respectful of our house and left it in an immaculate condition. We will definitely be booking Coral again. Thank you again!

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!

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, and my own dog Toby is now in his senior years so I’m very used to being gentle and mindful of what older pups may need. Caring for him has taught me how to keep walks calm and comfortable and how to spot when a dog needs a slower pace or a tad bit of extra reassurance. I’m also great with younger more energetic dogs and I’m happy to match their pace to keep them engaged and help them burn off some of that never ending energy!! Whether it is a steady stroll, lively walk or just keeping them company, I want to make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and well looked after in my company! I’m a student at the University of Bath studying Biomedical Sciences. Now in my third year, I tend to be up at campus less and have got a really flexible schedule. During the week I spend a lot of my time working on assignments, which means I’m usually at my laptop, perfect for pet sitting because I’m around all day and able to give dogs plenty of company. At the same time though I find that brain fog is very real and so getting outside for regular walks is ideal for me too. It breaks up my work and means I can take dogs out throughout the day, check in as needed, or just hang out with them whilst I work. I’m available Monday through Sunday, so my routine is super flexible and easy to fit around whatever your pup needs. My priority is keeping things calm, safe, and familiar for them. I will stick closely to your usual routines (such as feeding times, walk schedules, house rules, and any little quirks your pet has) so they feel settled and secure with me. I’m very mindful of safety in the home, making sure doors, gates, and anything they shouldn’t get into are kept properly closed. I also value keeping communication open, sending updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether I’m checking in, staying with them for the day, or keeping them company while I work, I make sure they feel relaxed, cared for, and never alone in their own space!

About: I have had dogs all my life and miss having them around when at uni. I have worked at a branch of the RSPCA for 3 years mainly in the boarding dogs section where I have looked after all sizes and temperaments of dogs from different backgrounds. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, administrating medication and providing company fit for the individual dogs needs and energy levels. Prior to this job I volunteered at a puppy training class for 2 years, achieving a level 1 qualification. I absolutely love animals and hope to go into animal welfare in the future. I’m currently in second year of Uni at UoB meaning I have lectures during the week however, I am happy to go anytime I’m not in lectures. This is most afternoons, every evening and all weekend. I have experience with all types of dogs and am trained on how to handle dogs who have slight quirks such as bowl guarding etc. On walks I will not let your dog off the lead but ensure they are on a loose leash, when safe, while still making sure I have a tight grip of the Handel. I am experienced in picking dogs up if needed and know how to do so safely.

About: I love dogs and love spending time with them. I’ve spent many years looking after friends and families dogs while they are away - taking them for walks, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I’m used to dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I understand every dog is different. My main goal is to make the dog feel loved and safe. As a professional athlete, I am extremely reliable, trustworthy and always on time! I love the outdoors and it is always made better by sharing that space with a dog. I’m currently a professional athlete based in Bath. I am often training in the mornings but tend to have late afternoons and evenings free - although my schedule is flexible. I have experience walking dogs of all sizes, and as a strong young man I have no issue managing larger dogs. The safety and trust of the dog is my top priority

About: Since my teenager years, I’ve been surrounded with my poodle, a cat and a turtoise so I’m comfortable with pets and different personalities. I’ve also looked after friends’ pets, including cats and energetic terriers. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding or simply company, I make sure they feel safe, secure and comfortable. Having recently moved to the UK for my PGCE and missing my own pets, I have plenty of time to invest in taking care of your companions. I am currently on holiday so my schedule is quite flexible. Most days I spend time exploring the area and meeting friends which makes it easy for me to fit pet care in my routine. If you know dates you need someone, just let me know. I’m flexible and always happy to see if we can make it work! Unfortunately unable to welcome your pets in my shared space with allergic roommates… In your home, let me know your routines and any special preferences your pet has. I love to spend quality time with animals, whether it’s playing with an energetic animal or giving them quiet company. Of course, I’ll treat your home with respect, send regular updates so you know how happy and well cared for your pet is.

This dog sitter is one in a million. Not only was she prepared to do the injections for diabetes she was also prepared to use canine nursing skills after my dog went into hospital to have a double cataract operation requiring 22 eye drops a day across 4 different time periods. She also dealt with 8 tablets a day oral medication. This enabled me to continue with my holiday plans to Australia Both my dogs were very happy on my return. They had obviously been well loved in my absence and exercised as directed and following directions to the letter. Kat is kind, loving and fun and I’m very grateful for her current and future help. You cannot wish for a better dog sitter!!!

I liked Anita the moment I met her. She is calm and warm and I felt great confidence in leaving her to look after our cats and our home while we were away for nearly 3 weeks. Its clear our cats felt comfortable in her presence, particularly one who can be slightly anxious and she regularly sent photos and updates on how they were doing which was reassuring. We returned home to a spotless house and a couple of very relaxed pussycats. I can highly recommend Anita and will definitely be booking her again.

Jess looked after my 13 year old dog Liesel overnight. Liesel loved her straight away, and Jess was really attentive to her usual routine and considerate around things like not taking her on walks during the heat of the day (we're having a heatwave). She also checked things like how often I wanted updates etc, so I felt really reassured that Liesel was in good hands. :)

FAQs for House Sitting – Bath

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Bath on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,993 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Bath. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Bath walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

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.

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 .

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 Bath 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. 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.

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
