“Amy is great with Rocky and Rocky loves Amy so overall it's a good match aha! Amy gives very good updates about the walks and even took Rocky to a open field which he enjoyed so much he's going back with me soon haha. Amy provided us with lots of pictures whilst they were out to reassure he was okay etc... Overall a very good experience and we most definitely would recommend.”

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats and rabbits. As an adult I have always had a dog or dogs, experiencing the high and lows, sickness and loss but I would still have more. I am now retired and would like to spend my time looking after other people’s dogs. I have now retired and have one dog of my own. I live near a park and also fields near the river and we have regular walks daily. I am at home most of the day so any visiting dogs would get plenty of fuss and attention. I have a secure fenced back garden and a gate at the front of my house. I have one friendly dog of my own to keep any visiting dogs company.
“I hired Rebecca when my pregnancy became too much for me physically and I couldn’t take my Pomeranian for a walk. Rebecca was always on time, dependable, and communicated any schedule changes well ahead of time and I know my dog looked forward to her walks. I would hire Rebecca again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her.”


About: My name is Nina and I have just moved to Bedford from Australia. In Australia I worked at a wildlife park and I’m missing that animal interaction so much since moving here. My last pet was treated like my own child, I was extremely in tune with his health and needs and he even had his own bedroom. I'm so excited to meet more fury animals and help them to live their best lives! I am currently working from home and have plenty of time to spend with fur babies outside of my work hours. My schedule is very flexible and can work for your needs. My number one priority when caring for your pet is their wellbeing. I will be giving your pet 100% of my attention when they are in my care.
“Kylie is great. She sent me photos and provided Pickles with two 30 min walks today. Everything went really well and I’ll be back in touch with her for more walks soon. Thank you, Kylie!”


About: I am a kind, reliable, and responsible pet sitter looking to give your pet the attention and love they deserve while you're away. Over the course of my life, I've had 8 dogs, 6 cats, 4 rabbits, 2 rabbits, and a goat! I have helped raise and train both puppies and kittens, am familiar with senior animal care, and am happy to spend time with your pet indoors and outdoors. Additionally, I have experience looking after reptiles as well. I've recently moved from America to the UK and would love to get to know your animals as I settle into my new community. I look forward to getting to know your pet and shower them with the attention they deserve! I am currently unemployed and have all the time in the world to spend with your animals. Happy to do check ins, spend a few hours a day with your pets and willing to spend the day with them if needed. Willing to work with you on whatever you need from me as a sitter! You know your pet best, so whatever guidelines you set will be followed strictly. I also want to respect your pets boundaries and will actively try not to interrupt their routine and get to know them and their personality. I will keep things clean, tidy, and organised in your home and send regular photos and updates to put your mind at ease.

About: Hi! My name's Eloise! I've been the proud parent to 2 beautiful Greyhounds and hopefully will be again in the near future. Unfortunately we lost our dear Wally at Christmas so am excited to meet some new furry friends :) Animals really are the best company! Cats are also always welcome, and I very much respect their independent snoozy nature aha! In my day to day life I'm a Prop Maker for Film and TV, so being active is very much a big part of my life. Going on long walks and playing fetch with any excitable friends I'm pretty accustomed too :) Hopefully I'll get to see you soon! Xxx I'm a Prop Maker for Film and TV, and so in between contracts and after work I find myself with a lot of free time! In these quiet periods I'm completely free to come and house sit, walk and play! After bonding with a pet, I'd be more than happy to fit in their walks after work in the evenings should any Prop Making gigs come up! I'm very aware of different pets personalities and their needs when it comes to walking and being around other pets. Being the previous owner to two Greyhounds, one of which was very nervous, I understand to respect boundaries and gently encourage when needed. I don't want any pets to come to any harm or be unhappy in my care, so I make sure to pay extra attention to their responses and behaviour.

About: I love animals! especially dogs and cats. I’ve taken care of my neighbour’s pets since I was 11. I always love interacting with new animals and I’m very aware of pet’s needs as I grew up with two sheep dogs and a lot of cats! I’m just about to start a new job teaching swimming and I’m looking for some work in the mean time. I’m experienced giving medications, training younger pups or supporting seniors. I generally just love taking care of furry friends! Please feel free to ask me any questions :) I’m currently between jobs, starting my new one at the end of September so I am completely available in the mean time. I am very flexible with timings and am happy to work last minute! I am good at reading animal’s behaviour and am confident with medicating, leashing, and crating if needed. I love giving cuddles but of course understand when some animals like their space!
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets... I'm currently not working, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding every day 6am-2pm, but I can do evenings and weekends as well, I have a flexible schedule. Caring for pets in their own home minimises their stress, as they remain in a familiar environment. The sitter's main duties extend to basic home security as well.

About: i have always had pets in my family so it’s second nature to care for them! it is my number one aim to ensure that they’re happy and well looked after whilst in my care and i understand every pet is different so i like to provide a custom service ensuring all of your pets’ needs are met. i have been trusted by many when it comes to taking care of their pets and take pride in punctuality, professionalism, good communication and above all, ensuring that they get the best care whilst their owners are away. i have looked after several different animals including cats, dogs, chickens and tortoises to name a few. i have also dealt with a variety of needs pets may have such as a strict walking schedule, elderly dogs, oral medication administration and therefore have a lot of experience with catering for the specific needs of each pet. i understand it can be daunting leaving your furry friend with a stranger but rest assured you’ll always come home to a happy pet! i have limited availability but with what i do have, i’d love to provide your pet with the love and care they need whilst you’re away! contact me to discuss any requests :) [FOR HOUSE SITTING] when house sitting i like to ensure that i stick to each pets daily routine (if there is one in place) to ensure that they feel safe, relaxed and happy. reading your pets body language is very important to gauge their wishes whilst caring for them such as when they want to play, nap, have fusses and cuddles or be left to their own devices (within reason i.e. to nap). i also ensure that i treat every owners home as if it were my own, with respect, i.e. cleaning up after my self. [ONLY RELEVANT FOR DAY CARE AND/OR DOG BOARDING] we have a young english bulldog (blue) who is energetic and loves other dogs. there is a fenced garden and multiple parks within 200yards of my house so all of your pets walking and socialisation needs will be met as well as regular toilet breaks where needed :) (does not come with me during stays at pet owners house).

About: Hi! I'm Matilda, I've had pets my entire life including 3 dogs, a cat and a lizard. I have had a range of animals from different backgrounds including rescue dogs and puppies/kittens. I also have experience training these animals and have had older pets also. I would love the opportunity to look after your pet, no matter their background! I'm currently a student and am in university for around 3 to 5 hours put of the day. These timings are often intermittent which allows me to regularly visit your pet. My evenings are also completely free with no prior permanent commitments I have had pets my entire life including a cat, 3 dogs and a lizard. I walk my dogs everyday for 30mins to 1hr30mins every day. I give my pets lots of attention and cuddles and probably way too many treats.
About: I have had cocker spaniels for 18+ years now. I also look after my sisters frenchie one day per week and a friends collie regularly once a month I am recently retired and have plenty of spare time to fill. Dogs are a big part of my life, caring, walking and playing etc We have a dog proof non escape proof garden so any dog would be completely safe here. there is plenty of room for pooches to run around and play.
“Elly was excellent. I booked at late notice, I was so pleased when she turned up with so much energy and happiness to walk Sally. Sally took to her immediately. Elly showed responsibility and she listened, acted on and reported back on the things I was worried about (Sally trying to eat everything ?). Definitely recommend”
About: I've been around all animals since I was a child from big dogs to cats to caged animals to birds. I love caring for pets as it brings me so much joy knowing they're in safe hands and you don't have to worry. I'm home every day of the week as I have a daughter of 1 year old. She too loves animals as I've had her around pets since she was born (safely obviously). I can work this job around my parenting. I have a fenced garden with plenty of running around room and am local to parks where your pets will meet others. I live in a very safe and secure neighbourhood.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of hands-on experience, specialized care skills, and genuine passion for animals. I don’t just watch pets—I care for them like they’re my own. 🐾 Special Skills and Experience: • Puppy Training: I have experience helping puppies with basic obedience, crate training, and potty routines. I understand the patience and consistency needed to give them a great start. • Senior Dog Care: I’m comfortable administering medication, supporting mobility issues, and tailoring activities to meet the slower pace and special needs of older dogs. • Behavioural Awareness: I pay close attention to body language and behaviour cues to ensure your dog feels safe, secure, and understood. 🐶 What You Can Expect: • Reliable, timely communication • Daily updates and photos • Customized care based on your dog’s personality, age, and routine • A calm, confident presence your dog can trust Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs training and structure, or a senior dog who needs gentle, attentive care, I’m here to provide more than just a service—I provide peace of mind. Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my everyday life. I structure my days around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings and snuggle time. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to adapt easily to each pet’s routine. On a daily basis, I prioritize: • Walks and playtime for physical and mental stimulation • Feeding and medication at consistent times • Updates for pet parents, including photos and notes • Grooming tasks like brushing or wiping paws if needed Throughout the week, I make sure to rotate activities, check supplies, and stay on top of any changes in behaviour or health. I also schedule time for continued learning—whether it’s reading up on breed-specific needs or attending new Canine training courses. Caring for animals isn’t something I fit in—it’s something I build my life around because it’s what I genuinely love doing. Currently available 24/7 for Dog Boarding and Care. Obviously at home caring for my 3 Year Old Son but also my 5 Year Old Cockapoo Dog as well. My home is pet-friendly, safe, and full of love! Before any stay, I make sure to learn all about a pet’s routine, quirks, and preferences so I can recreate their comfort zone here. In my home, I provide: • A calm, clean environment with designated spaces for rest and play. With a fully fenced Medium sized garden for the Dogs to run around and exercise. • Daily walks and playtime's based on the dog’s needs • Consistent feeding and medication routines • Socialization, if appropriate, with other friendly dogs in a controlled setting. My 5 year old Cockapoo loves to run around and will keep your fur baby entertained. • Close supervision, especially for new pets or puppies who need structure I treat every guest like part of the family, and I’m happy to accommodate special diets, habits, or medical needs. (For Note: Currently having an rear extension built which will include a specific dog room for caring and boarding purposes. The Room will include a Dog Sofa along with a Dog specific Bath for when your little fur babies get dirty on a walk.)

I hired Rebecca when my pregnancy became too much for me physically and I couldn’t take my Pomeranian for a walk. Rebecca was always on time, dependable, and communicated any schedule changes well ahead of time and I know my dog looked forward to her walks. I would hire Rebecca again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her.

Kylie walked my dog Finley this week. She was able to come meet him prior to the walk even despite the short notice and he instantly took a shine to her. I also received a great picture of the pair of them enjoying their walk together! Highly recommend and will not hesitate to rebook in the future. Thanks!

My dog loves Hannah! We’ve had a couple of walks so far and have a stay booked for later this week. Hannah has turned up early, giving me time to take her through all my instructions. I’ve only ever left Millie with family before but know she’ll be well looked after.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Bedford. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Bedford.
