About: Absolutely adore all kinds of pets- I have been pet sitting dogs and cats since I was 10. I’ve grown up with animals and was raised on a farm. I’m currently working part time so I have decent flexibility to take care of your pets! I live next to botanical park so I can take your dog on plenty of walks! Lots of cuddles with your dog, making sure that they go out regularly and are fed exactly to your instructions! Would love to teach your dog tricks
About: I’ve had pets for 12 years, cats and dogs! I have experience of dog sitting and dog walking for family, friends, and on rover. I absolutely love all animals and I volunteered in a turtle conservation centre in the Maldives where I cared for the injured sea turtles and the stray cats on the island. My degree is in wildlife ecology and am now seeking work in. As I’m not settled in a home yet I can’t get my own dog so I would love to be able to help others and have a little companion. If I was to look after your pet I would prioritise that! I get out for walks daily and apply for jobs in the house so it would fit in pretty well with my lifestyle. Very chilled and available most of the time! I won’t be looking after pets in my own home. In your home I will provide a calm and safe environment for your pets, I will prioritise their happiness and make sure they are comfortable at all times.
About: I have taken care of family and friends dogs since I was 13 years old. I’ve always had dogs, I have two shih tzu’s Bruno and Joey back home in Canada. I believe dogs are just as much family as humans 😊. I care for my own dogs on the daily. As well as neighbours, family, and friends dogs as well. I’ve loved and cared for dogs my entire life and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks or prefers quiet cuddles at home, I’m happy to care for them however way makes them feel comfortable and secure.I believe in treating every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I will always prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness. I recently moved to Belfast, I am from Canada, I have dogs back home but they will not be here with me in Northern Ireland. One of the main reasons I have signed up for rover, is I miss my dogs and would love to have another furry friend to keep me company :) I work full time, but my schedule is very flexible. I am able to work around your puppies needs and schedule. I can plan my days based on when each pet needs to be fed, walked, and given the attention they deserve. I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll provide feeding, walks, playtime, fresh water, and plenty of attention while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also follow any special instructions and send regular photo updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I honestly couldn't recommend Stacie highly enough. From the very first meeting, it was obvious how genuinely passionate she is about dogs and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. My dog absolutely adored her and came home relaxed, content and was very excited when I played the videos from their walk! Communication was excellent throughout, with photos and videos that gave me complete peace of mind as I could see my dog was having a great time! If you're looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy and genuinely cares about your dog's wellbeing, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. I know my dog is in the best hands, and I wouldn't choose anyone else. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my best friend!”

“Having Dave take Dylan out twice per week is fantastic. Dylan seems very happy with his walks and Dave is very reliable meaning that I am assured Dylan will get the exercise he needs. ”

About: My partner Sarah and I both love animals and give them as much attention as they require ☺️ We currently have an 8 year old beagle who is diabetic and blind in one eye. So we are well used to giving attention, belly rubs, sniff requests and giving different types of medication - injections, eye drops and oral. We have senior cat experience with our late cat Tabby who had arthritis and was on multiple medications. My partner and I work from home with one of us available to stay with the animals, available most evenings and weekends with enough notice. My own dog will be in the house. The back garden is completely fenced and covered, even my own little escape artist hasn’t found a way to escape just yet. House is fully free to roam for all animals.
“Very last minute bookings and Joshua had no problem taking Barry, Barry is awfully nervous with new people to which Joshua took his time getting to know him. A really great help and a lovely guy.”

About: Hi my name is Fiona, I'm a healthcare professional recently returned to Belfast after living in NZ for 4 years. I am new to this website but already have experience dog sitting in NZ which I absolutely loved (I have attached some photos and reviews from previous experience). I am a reliable and friendly person who will take good care of your dog, keeping them happy and make them feel loved while you are away. I work part time work so I am able to take boardings up to 4-5days when I am off. My work is variable so if my calendar is open I aim to be flexible and work around your request for short stays as I would love to spend my free time looking after or walking your dog. I hope to keep my schedule flexible in the coming months if you would like your doggy to have a familiar face for future walks or stay. I have a small enclosed yard where I can play with your dog safely as well as plenty of space in my house where they can roam around freely. I live with my partner who also loves dog, he works full time and so may be around some of the time during your dogs stay.

Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Belfast
Stacie made a fantastic first impression. It was immediately clear how passionate she is about dogs and how much she genuinely cares about them. She is also incredibly kind, punctual, reliable, and professional. Taking care for Zeus, Stacie kept us updated and sent us lots of lovely photos. It was wonderful to see how happy and entertained Zeus was in her care. What really reassured us was Zeus’s reaction when he saw Stacie the next day — he was clearly so happy to see her again! That alone showed us how much he enjoyed his time with her. We would highly recommend Stacie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after their dog. We will definitely be using her again!
This is the second time I’ve used Caitlin to walk Maisie. She is super friendly and Maisie is so delighted to see her every time. She’s caring, reliable and flexible and you can tell she has a real love for animals. Maisie really enjoys her walks with Caitlin and she makes everyone feel comfortable and at ease. I will definetly continue to book Caitlin in the future! Would highly recommend!!!
I’ve been so worried about having someone else walk Ben as he is a strong boy with selective reactivity. Eddie is clearly very experienced with big dogs and Its obvious that he has a great love for them. Ben was so comfortable with him from the moment they were introduced and put my mind at rest that he was in safe hands. Will definitely book Eddie again and highly recommend
Aimee has been great helping walk Pippa over the last few weeks! She always sends updates and photos to let us know how the walk went and from their initial meet and greet they got on so well and you could tell Aimee is great with dogs! I will definitely continue using Aimee to help walk Pippa!
Jack has been fantastic with my dogs—truly brilliant service. It’s obvious he genuinely cares about and understands dogs, as mine took to him straight away. Now, all I have to do is say his name and they’re at the back door, ready to go! He’s super reliable and has a calm, confident manner that’s really reassuring. I always feel at ease knowing they’re in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jack to anyone looking for dog walking or dog sitting services. He’s trustworthy, sensible, and great with the dogs—10/10!
Cameron was here to collect lubo 5 minutes early and I had chatted to him about what lubo wants and needs, as far as I’m aware he done all of that down to a tee as lubo was a very happy dog when he came home and tired out from the walk! Couldn’t recommend him enough.

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 Belfast. 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 Belfast.
