“Natalie and her partner were great. Very communicative, has received messeges every day. My wee dog came back home happy, tired and well-cared for. Will recommend to my friends and book again. Thank you girls!!!”
“Caitlin house sat for us and looked after our 9 year old Frenchie while we were abroad for our wedding, after we had a last minute cancellation from another sitter. Given the circumstances we were quite nervous, but Caitlin stepped in to save the day and immediately put our minds at ease. She was excellent with Gatsby (especially as he’s a senior dog) and kept in great contact with multiple updates each day. Gatsby seemed so relaxed and calm throughout her stay, which gave us so much reassurance while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Caitlin again and would highly recommend her! Thanks Caitlin :)”
About: I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter with a genuine love for animals and hands-on experience looking after dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding routines, playtime or overnight care, I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their owner is away. I understand how important it is to maintain consistency, so I follow each dog’s routine closely and provide plenty of attention and affection. With a strong sense of responsibility and a passion for animal wellbeing, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I work part-time so can provide daytime care 5 days per week. If your pet can be left alone during the day, I can provide sleepovers whenever needed. I look after pets in their own homes to maintain their comfort and routines. This adds a layer of safety by having someone occupy your house while you are away. I am extremely clean and tidy so you will always be returning to a well looked after house as well!
“Heidi was absolutely wonderful! It was our first time away from the puppy and we were all fairly nervous about it. Heidi gave us fabulous updates with lots of pictures, clearly took loving care of our pup and, as my kids said "Luna is having the time of her life!" We can't wait to get Heidi back!”
“Chanice was amazing, so friendly and kind. She clearly loves animals and treated our pup so well. She provided lots of updates and photos. We would definitely book her again. Thanks!”
“Paige looked after Missy for 8 nights (house / dog sitting). She gave us so much confidence from the first meeting, and communicated brilliantly while we were away. It was really clear that she had listened really carefully to details about Missy's medication and health conditions. There were plenty of photos and daily summaries of what she had been up to with Missy, and it was clear even from the photos that Missy was absolutely loving life. The only problem we had was when we came home. Missy seemed a bit disappointed that her new best friend wasn't staying :-).”
“Kyra is an excellent pet sitter. She kept me updated routinely on my pets and I definitely felt like they were in good hands. When I returned home my place was clean and in good condition and my dog and 2 cats seemed relaxed and happy. I would definitely schedule her for petsitting in the future.”
“Caitlin is the most attentive and considerate cat sitter we could have asked for. Not only did she charm our shy cat in a blink, she also sent regular updates with photos and details about our wee man. I highly recommend Caitlin and we will most definitely ask her to mind Dillin again!”

About: I am 39 year old lady who is an avid cat lover based in the BT9 area. My friends would often describe me as 'the crazy cat lady' who has more cat friends than human friends. I grew up with cats and I found their company exhilarating and therapeutic at the same time. I adore cats and get along with all breeds of cats. My neighbours can verify that. Over the years, I have looked after a pregnant mummy cat and her kittens and an elderly cat.
About: I am from China originally and has been in the UK for 5 years. I am an illustrator. I work from home so I have flexible working hours. I used to have many pets including 3 hamsters, 3 rabbits and 1 fancy mouse. I really adore cats and dogs and would love to spend time taking care of them.
About: I’ve been helping my neighbours and friends take care of their dogs and cats, and I also have hands-on experience caring for cats and bunnies. I’m patient, gentle, and genuinely enjoy spending time with all kinds of animals — I don’t mind looking after other types of pets either! Whether it’s feeding, walking, or giving them some extra affection, I always make sure they feel safe and happy. I currently work part-time, so I just need at least one day’s notice to arrange my schedule. Once confirmed, I’ll make sure to give your pet my full attention and care during the booked time. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, making sure pets are fed and have fresh water as provided. I love spending time playing with them, giving cuddles, and making sure they feel comfortable and happy. If they enjoy going out, I can also take them for up to an hour of walking and outdoor playtime.
“Shannon was absolutely fantastic! She looked after Patrick in our home on the day after our wedding and it gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. She kept us updated and gave him plenty of walks which he was delighted about. We came home to a happy dog and a spotless house, so very happy 😊”

“Couldn’t recommend Joshua enough! My boys were very well looked after and had a great time! The photos and videos he sent made that very apparent ☺️ one of my dogs can be strange with men but after a walk they were instant friends! Will most definitely be booking with them again ☺️ thank you again! Especially from Chase and Enzo!!”
“Our Teddy absolutely loved Sharon! It’s not often he will take to strangers as he’s a particularly shy and nervous pup. Sharon was fantastic, very professional and has a clear love of animals, she even researched the breed before meeting him! She sent us plenty of updates and pictures of his antics. Will definitely be booking with Sharon again any time we need a doggo sitter!”
“I cannot praise Aimee enough! She was wonderful with my nervous boy, she came to meet him before her stay & he was so happy to see her again! Bert is looking forward to having her stay in the summer”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was six years old, when I named my first dog—Bones, a sweet lurcher I adored. I’ve always had a passion for loving, nurturing, and gently training dogs of all ages. I’ve cared for several medium-sized dogs, and many of my friends trust me to walk their dogs or look after them during short-term stays. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’m committed to giving every dog the same patience, care, and kindness. As a final-year university student who also works part-time, my schedule is very flexible. I’m often available during the day, as well as most evenings and weekends. This allows me to easily fit pet care into my routine and give each dog plenty of attention and consistency. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure, and I’m happy to take them for walks anywhere you prefer. I understand that every dog is unique, with their own routines, needs, and personalities. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely and will accommodate any preferences to ensure your dog receives the best possible care. My priority is keeping your pet safe, happy, and relaxed—and giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away.

Thank you sooo much for taking care of Tilly and our home at late notice for a week. Tilly gets really anxious every day but it was so nice to get updates of you giving her Lollies each day. She is really good since we got back which isn’t always the case. Thankyou so much.
Was a bit nervous about leaving Ollie while we go on holiday but he warmed to Chanice after the first meeting, we knew he would be well looked after whilst we're away. Chanice sent lots of updates, photos and even a few videos - of one happy boy! Allowed us to relax our holiday. Would recommend 110% will be booking Chanice from now on! Thank you x
We cant thank Niall and Henrique enough for taking such good care of our miniature schnauzers Winston and Zach. We were so nervous leaving them as they have never stayed with anyone but family before and we know they can be very barky!! Lol From the initial meet and greet we knew the boys would be very well cared for and loved like their own. Winston and Zach even pulled on the lead to get into their house as we dropped them off! Niall and Henrique were very responsive, sent regular updates and photos/videos and the boys looked like they were having the time of their lives. We cant recommend these guys enough and we will definitely be using them again in the future. Thank yous so much!
Caitlin is the most attentive and considerate cat sitter we could have asked for. Not only did she charm our shy cat in a blink, she also sent regular updates with photos and details about our wee man. I highly recommend Caitlin and we will most definitely ask her to mind Dillin again!
Paige took excellent care of our dogs Charlie and Pippa in our home for a week. She was quick to respond to our initial messages, did a meet and greet with us and instantly filled us with confidence that the dogs would be very well looked after. She kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and photos. She also kept our home tidy. Would 100% recommend to others. Thank you so much Paige.
Emily really saved the day by accepting my booking last minute. She house sat for 4 days and my house was left in a better condition than when I left. My dog Fergie seemed happy and healthy when I got back which is all I can ask! I also got updates while I was in my trip. I can’t recommend Emily enough and will definitely be using her services again
Shannon was absolutely fantastic! She looked after Patrick in our home on the day after our wedding and it gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. She kept us updated and gave him plenty of walks which he was delighted about. We came home to a happy dog and a spotless house, so very happy 😊
Caitlin has dog sat for me at least 8 times (including before she was on Rover). My dog absolutely loves her and is always very well looked after. Caitlin does his training exercises with him, walks him, feeds him and keeps him well entertained. My dog is always super excited to see her which makes leaving him very easy. Caitlin always sends updates of what they are getting up to throughout the day and there has never been any issues. Caitlin dog sits at my house and has always looked after the place very well. I would recommend Caitlin to anyone/ any dog!
Chloe is a fantastic dog minder! She cared for my senior dog, Boris, for 9 days and made my holiday completely stress-free. She kept me updated throughout and looked after him with so much care. Boris came back looking happy and content. I’d highly recommend Chloe to anyone needing someone reliable to look after their dog. Thank you Chloe 🩷
We couldn’t recommend Molly more! She is an absolute breath of fresh air, so friendly, warm and welcoming. Bear loved her from the second she arrived! You can tell just how much Molly loves doggies and we knew he would be in the best hands and we weren’t wrong. He was so relaxed and well looked after! Molly we can’t thank you enough and we can’t wait use you in the future for our little bear xx
