“Such a wonderful day for our pup! We met a week before due to being nervous about leaving Clyro with someone we didnt know for the day. From the first minute Mariesa created such a wonderful environment. Really accommodating with Clyro's allergies. Pictures/updates sent throughout the day, will be using time and time again. Also a treat goodie bag at the end was loved by our dog, highly recommend!”


“Lauren had poppy for her first ever day of doggy daycare, and poppy had a wonderful time! Lauren kept me completely updated all day with pictures and videos and updates on how she was doing. I felt very very comfortable. The puppy was in very good hands - thank you Lauren”


“David was fantastic with Bean! I am always worried about leaving high energy bean with anyone but David did great. Kept up communications and pictures throughout the day. I would definitely leave Bean with David again!”


“Karolina took Coco at last minute Karolina was patient and understanding as Coco was quite nervous with new people , despite this coco soon settled and Karolina allowed Coco to do her own thing Would definitely recommend Karolina”


“Daniel was great with my anxious dog Cookie. He met us beforehand to familiarise Cookie with her surroundings and to make sure she was comfortable. Cookie had a great time and I was updated with pictures throughout. She was very relaxed and would definitely book Daniel again in the future to look after Cookie.”


About: Since my childhood, we have always had a pack of dogs and other animals in our family home. I qualified as a veterinary nurse in my youth and have since always had a dog to enjoy life with. I am able to see when trouble is brewing and love them to have a great day so they are relaxed and have nice dreams when they sleep. I have a school run to do at both ends of the day but am generally home and longest I leave my own dog is about 2 hours to pick up shopping. Before going out, I take care of my dog by taking him for his routine walk. On my return we generally go somewhere fun to walk like the woods or play hide the treat in the garden or house, play ball etc. I have things to do in the garden so any dogs would be outside with me as much or as little as they want. My own dog would love to play all day with any visiting dog if they are up for it. I have a fenced /sectioned garden for the dogs to roam around in. Both my home and garden make it easy to separate any dog if things get a little crazy, until they calm down. I also have a large crate available if required. They would have access to water at all times and have both shade and sun (if its out). As long as they are toiket trained, they will have access to all of downstairs including couches and sleep arrangements will be agreed with the owner of the furry visitor.

“I had the pleasure of using George and his partner for my gorgeous little dachshund, Dottie, and I cannot express enough how impressed I was with their exceptional care and service. From the moment I dropped off Dottie until I picked her up, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. First and foremost, they greeted Dottie with genuine warmth and affection, instantly making her feel comfortable and loved. It was evident that they took the time to get to know her unique personality and needs, which gave me great peace of mind. One aspect that truly stood out to me was the level of personalised attention Dottie received. She’s recently recovering from an operation and I could tell they made sure to give her extra care and attention alongside following her regular feeding and exercise routine. They even went above and beyond by providing updates and photos, which allowed me to stay connected with Dottie and see how much fun she was having. In conclusion, I cannot recommend them enough. If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy place to board/stay for your furry friend, look no further. Your pet will be in the best hands possible, and you can enjoy your time away knowing they are being treated like family.”


“Wonderful day for Pablo at short notice , lots of super photos during the day and collected a happy dog 🐕”


About: Hi, I'd like to introduce myself; my name is Lora. I'm a mum to an active, superhero-loving boy, a keen baker and am dog-obsessed. As well as growing up with dogs (upto 8 dogs in the family home at one time), I currently have two of my own, including a blind rescue dog. I have also spent the last 7 years volunteering for a dog rescue, helping over 50 dogs find homes in the UK. I have been providing dog walking services for over 3 years. I only walk upto two dogs by different owners at one time to ensure each dog gets all the attention they deserve. I can walk upto 3 dogs by one owner, dependent on size and temperament. I am a stay at home mum so can be reasonably flexible in timings and days as long as I am able to drop off and collect my son from school while my partner works. I also have some availability on weekends and evenings. As I walk to my jobs I can only do walks and drop ins in my area I have a substancial sized garden, which is fenced. This is checked regularly to ensure the safety of my own dogs as well as my client's dogs. I have two friendly dogs, that are used to being around other dogs and children.

About: We have had our own dog for many years but lost our last boy recently. We now help with other family members dogs. We know the stress of going on holiday and leaving your pet and I can assure you that we will look after them as if they were out own. My wife and I are both retired so we have 24 hours a day to devote to a dogs care with plenty of walks and love. We are located in a quiet Cul de Sac. Our large back garden is completely enclosed and we are next to Bedford Marina or over at Chicksands woods for lovely walks.

About: Over the past 15 years I have owned and cared for an array of species from snakes to squirrels, rats to cats and of course man's best friend. I've cared for disabled dogs with back problems and cats with cerebellar hypoplasia (Wonkey cat syndrome) , hyperactive mice and talkative birds. Long story short ... I love animals. Extremely flexible, every morning I'm up with the sound of my trusted alarm (a hungry twiz) and then followed by a walk with the elderly doggo I will meet expectations and follow care instructions to a T. I know how precious and important these family members are. I will give regular updates and keep you informed on how your pets are doing

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats because of my mom being a pet groomer, therefore I have always been surrounded by animals! From a Cane-Corso to a Yorkshire Terrier or even rescues, I can adapt to your pets needs and I am a strong walker. I can feed, train, give medicine and most of all, lots of cuddles! We have three rescue Shar-Peis at home, Glasha, Roofus and Archie and I love them dearly. I am available! I graduated from the University of Brighton in August, recently moved house and I am looking for what’s next. I enjoy figuring out pet personalities because they can be quite funny. I really miss my dogs back home so would be nice to care for and accompany your pets. We have a fenced back yard, but poos and wees will 100% be out on walks. There are so many local fields and parks here and I cannot wait to show them all the p-mail spots they haven’t sniffed out yet!

About: I have had a love for animals my whole life, and I understand the love and happiness they bring to your life. They deserve the best care and it truly makes my days better getting to look after animals and them go home happy. I currently homeschooling my 7 year daughter so between that and her extra curriculur activities I have plenty of time to provide the services listed and give your pets the best time and care. We live in house and have a fenced garden, we also have a large beautiful park and river next to our home so perfect for lovely walks.

“I was so impressed with Elisha! She has looked after our 10 week old puppy, Scooby, so well for us, it was his first day care session and he was so happy with her! Thank you so much Elisha, we will definitely use you next time!!! x”


About: Ive recently come back from travelling America and would love to make some extra money in my spare time, I’ve always loved animals since I can remember but especially dogs having always had dogs since growing up I thought why not help and look after other peoples babies ❤️ I’d love to meet all dogs and help where needed I’m happy to look after your pets at your own home if they’d feel more comfortable ☺️ I’ve recently just got a job working 32 hours per week I’d still love to do dog sitting on the side, I will update my availability on here I’ve uploaded 3 weeks. But also please ask for the dates you need even if it’s blocked off as I may be able to do a drop in if I start later in the day thank you ☺️ I have a fully fenced garden for peace of mind I also have a Lhasa also called Poppy who loves other dogs but due to her age she prefers calmer dogs :) I’d also love to meet you and your pet prior to booking just to make sure we’re all happy

“Amazing! Was kept up to date all throughout the day and received lovely pictures! Amy is great with Pepe and understands him so well x so so pleased!”


“Both Tania and her husband were really lovely, they both were very communicative with me and attentive to Ziggie. They kept me up to date during the day with really sweet pictures/videos of Ziggie walking in the park, playing zoomies in their garden and taking an afternoon nap. I would have no problem at all booking with them again in the future, or recommending them to a fellow rover user.”


About: I’ve taken care of people’s pets for years, dogs and cats, being a filmmaker I work from home so availability is great. Simply let me know your pets personalities, likes and dislikes and I will cater to their needs. I just want them to feel comfortable and have a good time! I have all day free as I work from home so they will get all my attention! This career is my focus and therefore my schedule is adapted to work around your pets needs. With pets I don’t know I close all upstairs doors just to limit anyone getting lost as the house is quite large. The green is fenced off and quite large so plenty of running space in a safe environment.

“Kirsty was very helpful with Goyo, she sent us frequent updates, and was very patient with him. Goyo was very happy on drop off, and equally happy when we picked him up. Very recommended service!”


“Rosie was really lovely and kept me informed and updated me on what Isla had been up, including her activities, meals, poops, as well as sending through photos. It was really nice for me to know that my young puppy was safe and being taken care of so well by Rosie. Thank you”

Lynn B.
“Over that last few years, Lynn has looked after our dog on many occasions, anything from a few hours to a couple of weeks. Lynn's experience of being a dog owner of many years means that she is both knowledgeable and caring when looking after not only her own dog, but ours too. Whenever we pull up into Lynn's driveway, our dog is always desperate to get out of the car and into her house to say hello - a sure sign that he enjoys and is happy being with Lynn. On one occasion, Lynn even took our dog away on holiday with her, so that we were able to go away on holiday ourselves when we couldn't take our dog with us! Any dog staying with Lynn will be in safe hands.”

Lora T.
“Lora has been walking my dogs for 2 1/2 years. One of the dogs is a rescue dog who was very nervous around people. That was not the case with Lora, he took to her straight away. She clearly loves both my dogs which is shown by how excited they become when they see her. Lora is happy to take the dogs on a long walk whatever the weather. I would say that any dog owner would be lucky to have Lora look after them.”


Jim G.
“Good morning, Thank you for asking for a testimonial for Jim. I can’t recommend him highly enough as a dog sitter. He has an incredible way with dogs – calm, caring, and completely devoted to their well-being. Over the years, Jim has looked after many dogs from his extended family while they have been away on holiday, and every single one has been cared for with the kind of love and attention you'd expect from a devoted owner. What truly sets him apart is the way he always puts the dogs first. I’ve known him to sleep downstairs just to be close to a dog who wasn’t feeling well, ensuring they’re comforted and monitored throughout the night. Jim’s wife, Lynne, is equally dog-loving and fully supportive of everything he does. Together, they create a warm and nurturing environment where any dog would feel safe, loved, and right at home. Anyone who entrusts their dog to Jim can do so with complete confidence. The pets won’t just be looked after – they will be cherished as one of the family.”

Ellie F.
“One of Ellies first words was Dog, We could never get past one in her buggy or out on a walk without her having to stop and say hi..Her love for all animals grew as she got older, but dogs and horses have always been her favourites. She would often walk a friend’s Guide Dog, until she got her very own Lhasa Apso called Poppy, whom she adores. Ellie is a very responsible dog owner, whose love for any breed is endless. She often looks after friends/family dogs, both within our own home or theirs. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to care for your furry friend 🐾”

Richard S.
“Had such a great experience leaving my dog Carly with Richard while I was away for a few days. He was super reliable and clearly really cared, sent me photo updates every day, including one of her sprawled across his sofa like she owned the place. Took her on proper long walks, even discovered a new trail she loved. Carly can be a bit dramatic with food (she sometimes won’t eat unless you pretend you’re not watching), and Richard totally handled it like a pro. When I picked her up, she was calm, happy, and honestly looked like she’d just had a little holiday of her own. I’d 100% trust him with her again.”

“Kirsty was very helpful with Goyo, she sent us frequent updates, and was very patient with him. Goyo was very happy on drop off, and equally happy when we picked him up. Very recommended service!”
