“I can't rate Emily highly enough. She took amazing care of Elsa whilst I was away. Emily has a gentle way with cats and a maybe a touch of the cat whisperer as even my nervous, wary of new people, hatea everyone, scardy cat warmed to Emily.”


About: I own a 4 year old street dog who didn't even know his name when we adopted him, with numerous serious behavioural problems. However now with a lot of training, patience and kindess I have managed to transform into a cuddly, loving pet who I wouldn't replace for the world. I have also helped a clients dog go from an extreme ball of nervousness and anxiety that wouldn't want to leave the garden into running around off lead in the park happy as anything. This has made me extremely comfortable and confident around animals of all varties, so no matter what problems/quirks your pet(s) might have, im certain I'll be able to help and make sure all their needs are met! Taking care of pets is my number 1 prioirty and will always fit my day around being able to do it as much as possible, without dropping the quality of the care that I provide. I can work from 8am to 8:30pm every Monday-Thursday for any dog walking or dog/cat sitting needs. I will always make sure to ask as many questions as needed to ensure that I fully understand what needs your pets has, especially if they have any quirks or extra help required and will follow it to the exact requirements. My goal is for you to be completley stress free when your pet is in my hands so you can relax and not have to worry at all!
About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was 11 years old and been dog sitting for the last 5 years. I adopted my own dog Otto who was brought up in a puppy farm and my elderly dog Maisy who I care for is 16 years old. I am familiar with adopted and elderly dogs. I do over night stays, day time stays and dog walks. I am currently between jobs so free any day of the week to dog sit. My schedule is very flexible and this is my current full time job. I have a fenced garden and live in a child free home. All food and drinks are kept in cupboards so the dogs can not reach anything that will harm them.
“Marina took excellent care of our cat while we were away. We received daily photo / video updates, and our cat really took to her. We would definitely book with Marina again! 🐈⬛❤️”


About: Whilst I have not actually shared my home with a dog I have many friends and family members that do. I love dogs very much! I would welcome the prospect of caring for your loved companion animal either in your home or out for dog walks. Hi, I’m Lisa, and I’m based in Welling. I’m reliable, friendly and love spending time outdoors, so dog walking is a great fit for me. I’ve spent many years working in a school environment where being trustworthy, organised and caring was essential every day. I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own, making sure they get a safe, enjoyable walk tailored to their needs. I’m happy to provide photo updates during walks, stick to your dog’s usual routine, and give plenty of attention and care. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower sniff around the park, I’m happy to adapt to what suits them best. I have recently retired and I am looking to do something worthwhile with my time helping others and fulfilling an ambition to care for animals and help people. My availability is flexible. I have two cats at home so I would be available for visiting and playtime with pets in their own home or for dog walking.

“Ruby was fantastic looking after our puppy, Ember! She was caring, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease knowing Ember was in great hands. Ember clearly had a lovely time with her. We’d happily recommend Ruby and would definitely ask her to look after Ember again!”

About: Hi! I have experience caring for all types of dogs- from pugs to Jack Russells to greyhounds. I have been through all the stages, from puppy to senior, with my own pugs. I have long-standing clients who vouch for me for dog sitting and walking. Very reasonable rates, reliable, flexible and punctual. Happy to cater to your dogs needs. Able to offer individual and group walks and all types of sitting. I am a university student with plenty of free time to care for your doggo and fit to your schedules! Please contact me for details on availability. The downstairs of my house is large and open-plan, leading straight out the double doors to a dog-proof fenced garden. My own pug is great company and wouldn’t hurt a fly.

“Hayley did a fantastic job with Eden even in the hot weather she took great care of him. Great communication and daily updates and even helped with watering our plants as well. Really recommend Hayley - lovely person and a great cat sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m a Sidcup based dog lover who enjoys spending time outdoors and caring for animals. I have experience looking after dogs of different temperaments, including those who are energetic, a little anxious, or just love a good long walk. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always aim to create a calm, safe, and happy environment for them. I walk an average of 15k steps daily, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll or a more active walk, I tailor it to your dog’s needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always feel reassured. I’d love to meet your dog and make sure they’re well cared for while you’re busy! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I already walk regularly each day and enjoy spending time outdoors. I have a flexible schedule around my work, which allows me to be available for morning, lunchtime, and evening walks, as well as drop-in visits. I’m also available on weekends and can accommodate regular bookings or last-minute requests where possible. I prioritise being reliable and consistent, so pet care is something I intentionally plan into my week rather than fitting it in last minute. I always try to keep pets as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking closely to their usual routine. In a pet owner’s home, I follow any instructions carefully whether that’s feeding schedules, walk preferences, medication, or just the little things your pet is used to. For walks, I make sure dogs get the right level of exercise depending on their energy and personality, and I always keep them safe and supervised. For cats and other pets, I take a calmer approach, giving them space while still making sure they’re well cared for, fed, and have a clean environment. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm, safe space where they can settle in comfortably and feel at ease. I keep things clean, secure, and give them plenty of attention and reassurance. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“James has been great with my kitties, he was very flexible with accommodating a last minute request, was able to visit at the agreed times, and has spent plenty of time with both of them. My cats are shy of people they do not know, and James managed to navigate that with a lot of patience and care. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of a variety of animals since a young age, including my own household pets, from chocolate Labrador’s, labradoodles, jack Russell’s and daschunds. I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and will always spoil any dog I’m around! I currently regularly dog sit for close friends- a daschund. I am happy to play and go on long walks, as well as cosy up together depending on the attention your dog needs. I will always play and be mindful of your dogs needs, making sure they feel as comfortable with me as I do them. I have dog sat and walked for many of my friends and family, and occasionally looked after cats too. I work full time but I can work from home regularly, and can even make extra trips home where necessary. There will also always be a least one housemate at home, all of whom are comfortable with dogs. However I will be fully responsible for your dog/pet. I live in a 3 floored house with housemates, we are all super animal friendly, often letting our neighbours cats and dogs in for treats. I have previously dog sat for friends in this house, an old staffy, a jack russell, and a dashund with no problems. We have a small- medium sized garden with fences on each side and walls at the back. We have a large living room where pets can sleep, or if they prefer there is plenty of space in my own bedroom, for a dog that loves a snuggle. I will take the dogs for regular walks, and weather depending have the garden doors open most of the time for pets to freely come and go in the garden. Everyone in the house is pet friendly and trustworthy, but I will be responsible for the day to day care of your pet. I can go on as many walks as required, and can be led by you on your dogs needs. Very accommodating.
“Ronnie was fantastic with my two corgis. They both warmed up to her straight away, which says a lot! I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I'd happily book her again and highly recommend her. 🐶💕”

About: I have over 5 years of experience working with both dogs and cats as a dog walker and pet carer. I also have a Bachelor of Science in Animal Management and Zoology, giving me a strong understanding of animal behaviour, welfare, and individual needs. Through my qualifications I have worked with dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including young, senior, and disabled animals. I’m confident adapting my care to suit each pet, whether they need an energetic walk, gentle senior care, support with training and socialisation, or simply some companionship. Pet care is a major part of my week being surrounded by dogs and cats daily offering walks and other creative activities, so I have flexible availability throughout the week. Any pet I'm caring for will be a priority, and I'm able to dedicate plenty of time to their walks, care, companionship, and individual routines For boarding and house sitting, I care for pets in their own home rather than housing them at mine, allowing them to stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. Before any booking, owners complete a form providing important information such as their pet's routine, specific needs, any health concerns, and their local vet details. I follow all instructions provided by the owner carefully and make sure each pet receives the individual care and attention they need.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my family and love looking after them for family and friends. My experience is mainly with small to medium dogs but I’ve also looked after friends dogs before who are bigger (Labrador size). My family have also had rescue dogs so I have experience with dogs who are a bit more nervous or shy. I’m 29 years old, work in the public sector and I currently work full time but I work from home at least two/three days a week. I’m active and like going out for a long walk in my lunch break, before work or after work. My job is also flexible so I can take breaks as and when I need to. I have a fenced garden and do let dogs sit on the furniture (my dogs used to have blankets they would sit on). Always access to fresh water and treats (depending on the owners preference). Lots of cuddles too throughout the day!
About: Aspiring veterinary student with dedicated experience caring for dogs and cats of all temperaments and sizes. I specialise in personalised care treating all pets as my own! this looks like managing strict dietary schedules, monitoring temperature regulation for specific breeds, and assisting pets with physical disabilities or paralysis. I pride myself on providing clear daily updates with photos and videos for smooth communication/transparency alongside treating every pet with gentle, attentive care. I ensure to offer loving care tailored to your pet's exact additional emotional needs, whether that means managing high-energy breeds, comforting pets with separation anxiety, or following strict comfort routines. With my background in pre-clinical veterinary studies and hands-on pet care, you can rest assured your dog or cat is in safe, knowledgeable, and reliable hands. Caring for pets is my primary job, so as a gap-year student running my pet care business (pawfectcarer), I have full, flexible availability throughout the week and on weekends for full-day care, overnight stays, and drop-in visits. I especially love working with regular clients because building lasting relationships creates a strong emotional bond with your pet and provides them with a comforting, reliable routine. Getting to know your pet inside and out enables me to fully understand their unique personality, body language, and specific needs, ensuring I can provide the absolute highest standard of personalised care. Safety, health, and peace of mind are at the core of everything I do during pet sitting. Whether I’m doing drop-in visits or overnight sitting in your home, I maintain strict safety protocols—ensuring double-locked doors, secure garden boundaries, and zero access to household hazards. I also make sure your house is left clean, tidy, and safe before I leave. Backed by my clinical veterinary coursework, I closely monitor animal body language, stress levels, and overall physical health. I strictly adhere to all dietary, medical, and behavioural instructions, providing you with frequent photo, video, and text updates so you know your pet is completely safe, relaxed, and loved.

Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Bexley
Ruby was fantastic looking after our puppy, Ember! She was caring, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease knowing Ember was in great hands. Ember clearly had a lovely time with her. We’d happily recommend Ruby and would definitely ask her to look after Ember again!

Freya arranged a meet and greet the day before, which I really appreciated as one of my dogs can be quite excitable and I was feeling a bit worried. She was friendly, reassuring, and easy to communicate with, which helped put me at ease. Freya asked lots of good questions to help understand my dogs and clearly cares about their wellbeing. While more energetic dogs can be a bit of a handful, she remained calm when handling the situation. Overall, a positive experience, and I will definitely be booking again with Freya.

Rhiannon was absolutely wonderful you could see she really cared for my little boy Patch I wouldn’t hesitate to use Rhiannon again if I needed a sitter I found her to be a real gem just what I was looking for I would recommend Rhiannon to anyone thank you for taking great care of Patch
Rebooked with Araceli for a weekend away from the house and our darling boy Cookie was very happy to see her! Araceli sent us pictures, updates, and stayed on top of communication the whole time so we didn’t worry. Won’t be looking for other people now that I know she’s PERFECT for the job.

<b>Tip:</b> Sitters who specialise in drop-in visits and dog walks may have more flexibility for last-minute visits than sitters who focus only on house sitting or boarding.
Before the first visit, give your sitter clear written instructions covering your pet’s feeding routine, medication, litter or toilet care, preferred activities, behaviour, and anything that may make them anxious. This is a good idea, even if you’ve had a Meet & Greet.
Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leads, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.
For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.
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 Bexley 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!
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
