“Vanda is so friendly, calm and was able to pick up on my care instructions for Luna quickly. Luna was receptive of her at first but later on got on well. I’m happy with Vanda’s services and would recommend her to others!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was young. Life would be so boring and completely pointless if it wasn’t for these beautiful furry friends! I have experience walking groups of dogs and looked after 3 dogs for a whole week whilst home sitting. Best week ever. I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to be there for whatever they need. I love walks so taking a furry friend will be a breeze. My home provides a calm, secure environment with space, cleanliness, routine, and constant supervision, ensuring any animal’s safety, comfort, enrichment, and well-being at all times.
“Laura was excellent! She took care of my 2 cats and was informative and supportive the whole time. My two fur babies are hard to get along with and she did an amazing job.She is also so kind and sweet as a person. She definitely exceeded my expectations for sure! Will definitely book again in the future! Thank you again, Anna!”
“Linkie was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter for Arya. From the detailed update, it was clear how attentive, caring, and genuinely affectionate she was with her. Arya greeted her happily, had plenty of energy, and clearly felt comfortable and safe in her care. Linkie made sure all essentials were checked, fed her properly, gave treats, cleaned the litter box thoroughly, and spent quality time playing and giving cuddles. I really appreciated the thoughtful observations about Arya’s eating, litter habits, and mood. It was incredibly reassuring to know Arya was so well looked after. Highly recommend Linkie! 💛”
About: Hi! I’m a young professional living with my boyfriend in a spacious ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. We are both huge animal lovers and grew up with dogs and cats, so we’re very comfortable caring for pets and understand the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I work from home one day a week and am available to look after dogs on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. We love spending time outdoors and would ensure your dog gets plenty of walks, playtime, and attention throughout their stay. I am available for check ins/ dog walking lunchtimes in the Edgbaston area. We have a car, which means we can also take dogs out to the countryside for longer walks and adventures. Whether your dog is energetic and loves exploring or prefers a more relaxed pace, we’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. We’re genuine dog lovers and would treat your pet as if they were our We would love to look after dogs from Thursday through to Sunday. I work from home on Fridays, which means I can provide plenty of company throughout the day and take dogs out for lunchtime walks as well as morning and evening exercise. We’re very relaxed when it comes to pets and are happy for dogs to be on the sofa and feel at home with us. Our day usually starts around 7am on work-from-home days and around 8–9am at weekends, so we’re well suited to dogs that enjoy an early start as well as those who prefer a slower morning. We’re happy to tailor activities to your dog’s needs, whether that’s long countryside walks, shorter local walks, trips to the park, or simply relaxing at home. If your dog is sociable and enjoys being out and about, we’d be happy to take them to dog-friendly pubs or restaurants. Equally, if they’re more of a homebody, we’re more than happy to spend cosy evenings on the sofa with plenty of attention and cuddles. We live in a spacious one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter, with easy access to several local parks and walking routes. We enjoy getting outdoors and regularly go on walks around the local area, and we also have a car, which means we’re able to take dogs on longer walks to larger parks or out into the countryside if they enjoy exploring further afield. We’re very flexible and like to tailor our routine to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your dog prefers a quick stroll around the block, a trip to the park, or a longer adventure, we’re happy to play it by ear and do what makes them happiest. We’re very laid-back pet lover and want dogs to feel completely at home with us. We’re happy for dogs to be on the sofa and, if permitted by their owners, on the bed too. The apartment has hard flooring throughout, making it practical, easy to keep clean, and comfortable for dogs.
“Rosie is reliable and caring, and gave regular updates throughout. She was also very good at giving medication, which gave me real peace of mind. I’d happily recommend and book again!”
About: I've spent my life surrounded by animals. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, parrots, turtles, fish, ducks, sheep, and more. Each animal has taught me something new, and this variety has made me a patient, adaptable, and attentive sitter. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for a rescue Corgi with a limb amputation—a brave, spirited girl adopted from a shelter. Over two years, I learned how important gentle handling, consistency, and emotional reassurance are, especially for pets who need extra support. I’m always willing to give that extra time and care. I also share my home with two cats, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and behaviors. In addition, I have experience caring for small and exotic pets, including four years looking after a very long-lived hamster. I keep feeding areas clean, follow routines carefully, and can provide regular photo updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing. I’m also comfortable administering medication with clear instructions. What matters most to me is that your partner feels safe and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and can adapt to your pet’s routine. I’m available for both short-term and long-term care—feel free to get in touch anytime. I maintain a calm, clean environment, follow routines carefully, monitor behavior, and provide updates. In owners’ homes, I respect their space and pets’ familiar habits.
About: I've basically grown up surrounded by paws and wagging tails - there's been a dog in my life since before I was even born! I adopted my two golden fur babies from different families, and they're now living the royal life back home in India with my family while I study overseas. I miss them every single day, so spending time with other dogs here would make me so happy. I've got around 22 years of experience with dogs and a lifetime of love (and slobbery kisses). If you ask me whether I'm a dog or cat person - honestly, I'd pet a crocodile if it dont think I am food! 🐾♥️ “I’m usually available from 2 PM to 10 PM, and sometimes till around 11:30 PM if I don’t have early classes or assignment deadlines. I’m doing my post-grad right now, so my schedule can change a bit depending on unisveristy ~ This isn’t just a job for me — I really love being around animals and taking care of them I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. I follow their routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they feel comfortable and secure at all times
“Fab! Our little cat isn't the easiest of characters but Kat was incredibly patient and understanding. Having never left Milo solo for so long we were a little apprehensive, but the daily updates Kat sent were great. Highly recommend :)”
About: I’ve raised Lucifer since he was 8 weeks old and we’ve had Bala stay with us for the last year, so we know how to manage multiple dogs at the same time that have very different energies We work from home and our pets have seperation anxiety which means they are never left alone. We go on at least 4 walks a day, so if your dogs love the park or going on long walks then that would be perfect. We will only accept pets if they are vaccinated, house trained, and good with other dogs. We love taking photos of the dogs, so you'll be getting plenty of updates so better start making space for photos on your phone. My flatmate Peiyi is also there to take care of the dogs if I'm ever busy. I have a year old mini-goldendoodle named Lucifer who loves to play all day, so if you've got a pet that loves to play with other dogs then we would be the perfect household for dog sitting. We also have a five year old korean jindo mix dog named Bala who loves to sleep all day, so if you've got a pet that loves to sleep and getting back rubs all day then we would be the perfect household for dog sitting.
About: While I don’t have formal experience in dog care, I genuinely believe that my friendly and understanding nature makes me a trustworthy company for your puppies.

“I’m so grateful to Benjamin for accepting my request at such short notice! As always, he took such good care of my girls while I was away. The cats and I are incredibly grateful to him for all this care and attention!”
“Fantastic cat sitter! My cats tend to be really nervous around new people but when Nicola first visited they both came up to her and not ran away. She was great at following the specific feeding instructions and gave great updates each feeding sessions. I would absolutely use Nicola again in the future.”

Here I take care for the owners dogs, cats and Alpacas, managing medications, behavioural issues and diets aswell as training young puppies and baby alpacas.

I have a working cocker spaniel which I trained myself to a gun dog standard from a puppy, I also own 2 cats (15 and 4) who all get along very well with one another aswell as with the dog. I prefer to use training methods of positive reinforcement and relationship building however if needed I can adapt to different training methods (no physical reprocussions) depending on a pets needs and preferences. Additionally we also added another cocker spaniel puppy to out house who is currently in training with me. Meaning I am familiar with different training and desensitisation techniques for younger dogs aswell as advocating for older animal happiness and health on my walks

Birmingham cat owners share their Rover experiences
We booked Beatriz for home visits over a long weekend and she was wonderfully attentive to our 3 needy cats, as usual. She even managed to win over our big scaredy cat, Mickey. The frequent photos and videos meant we were truly able to relax. Would 100% book again and recommend!
Natalia was a great pet sitter. She always arrived on time, followed all instructions carefully, and took really good care of my cat. She made sure to give him his probiotics as requested, which I really appreciated. My cat clearly liked her and felt comfortable, which is very important to me. Natalia was reliable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to book her again.
Liliia was brilliant. She came round before I left to ensure Ernie was comfortable with her. He can be very shy but after a few meetings and some Dreamies he trusted her completely. He was very happy when I returned having been very well looked after with food, water and treats. Liliia has a natural love and affinity with animals and her caring nature came through in every interaction with Ernie. Thank you Liliia, we hope to see you again soon!
100% would recommend Maisie! I came home to a safe happy cat, everything was done exactly as I instructed and, while I was away I received plenty of reassurance and photo updates from Maisie, keeping me at peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with Maisie again ☺️
Teanna is very professional, respectful and polite. I felt completely comfortable leaving my kitten in her capable hands. The litter tray was always cleaned and Teanna sent me lots of cute photos of Nunde, which I really appreciated. It was my first time using a pet drop in service and I am picked the correct person. My Nunde got on with her very well. I will certainly book again and highly recommend anyone else to. I will only use Teanna for my holiday trips now, Nunde likes her and I do not like the idea of meeting different strangers. It is consistency for both myself and Nunde. Nunde also sends her approval on my choice and already misses Teanna.
Zilin is really lovely and was so patient and caring with my house-cat Ernie. She is reliable, dropping in on him when she said she would and spending time with him. He is very shy but he became confident with her, purring and accepting fuss. He was very well cared for while I was away and I am very grateful.
Thank you sooooooooooo much! Frida was absolutely wonderful, kind, patient, and so understanding with my nervous cat (and me 😂) . I was able to relax while being away for so long for the first time ever. I received lovely updates and photos, which made such a difference and gave me complete peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would 100% recommend Frida to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!!!!
Exceptionally good cat sitting! Zoe was amazing with our cat Vita and very responsible in terms of attending the visits in the agreed time slots. We were also very pleased in seeing how clean and tidy Zoe was. We are very happy and will count on her for our next cat sitting needs!
