About: I have spent my life surrounded by animals, and I cannot imagine it any other way. Over the years I have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, parrots, turtles, fish, sheep, and many others. Each one has taught me something new, and that range of experience has made me a calm, observant, and adaptable carer. I have a particular soft spot for dogs. I see them as gentle, loyal little companions who give so much love so freely, and I believe they deserve to be cared for with patience, respect, and genuine attention. Because animals cannot use words, I pay close attention to their behaviour, body language, habits, and small changes in mood. To me, this is how real trust is built. A formative experience for me was caring for a rescue Corgi who had a limb amputation. Over two years with her, I came to understand how much consistency, gentle handling, and emotional reassurance can mean to an animal who has been through difficulty. I never consider myself an expert, because every animal continues to teach me more. I currently share my home with two cats, and I have experience with small and exotic pets, including a wonderfully long-lived hamster. I am comfortable following detailed feeding routines, keeping food and litter areas clean, giving medication when needed, and sending regular photo updates so you can feel reassured while you are away. What matters most to me is simple: your pet should feel safe, loved, and understood. 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.
“Sylvia did a great job. Thank you so much for taking my wee boy for a walk. Booked in last minute and she reply in few minutes. Highly recommend Sylvia. She provide pictures and tracking so I know exactly where my dog is :) I will use her service again in the future. Monica.”
About: I was around dogs and cats since I was 4. Over time developed strong passion and deep understanding of their mood. Big part of my childhood summers spent with dogs at my grandparents house. I was caring about a lot of cats and walked some of them on backyards. Overall had experience with different pets - my own, family’s and friend’s My studying year in university ended and I don’t have other job at the moment, so I have a lot of time to care and play with your dogs or cats at any time Since I will be standing in your home, your pet will be relaxed, feeling safe and comfortable in their familiar territory. Can give attention or space depending on their mood and personality
About: I've been looking after my friends' dogs since 2021 whenever they're away on holiday or travelling for work. Over the years, I've learned how to take care of dogs. I'm a patient, responsible, and caring person who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. Whether it's going for walks, playing, sticking to their usual routine, or simply giving them plenty of attention and cuddles, I always aim to provide the same level of care that I would want for my own. I am currently finishing up my PhD, so I have a very flexible schedule since I don't have a traditional 9-5 office job. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I enjoy spending time with animals. I always care for each pet according to their individual routine and the owner's instructions. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I take the time to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise routine, favourite activities, and any special requirements. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

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.

“Laryssa was easy to communicate with when arranging Hank’s pickup and made the whole process seamless. She was fantastic with him, and it was clear he was well cared for. I would highly recommend Laryssa to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker.”
“Nicola is one of the nicest dogwalkers Leo has had! She’s so caring and holistic in her approach and despite him being an anxious and sometimes, reactive dog, he’s so comfortable around her! Can’t wait to have him walked by her again!”

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years and genuinely love getting to know their little quirks. From zoomy puppies to senior cats with strong opinions, I adapt my care to suit each pet’s pace, personality, and routine. I have met everything from diva dachshunds to cats who only accept chin scratches at a 45° angle. I’m confident with all ages and temperaments, including nervous rescues, energetic pups, and senior pets who just want a calm, loving presence. I am experienced with medication, special diets, anxious animals, and pets who just need a bit of extra patience. I treat every pet like they are my own, whether that means tug-of-war in the garden, quiet lap time, or translating their unique version of “feed me now”. What sets me apart is a calm approach, strong intuition, and the ability to earn trust. Pet care is a regular part of my weekly routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I am flexible with mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m looking after. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or overnight stays, I make sure your pet gets consistent, calm, and loving attention throughout the day. I always allow extra time for cuddles, belly rubs, and the occasional game of fetch (or staring contest with a cat!). Whether I am caring for your pet in my home or theirs, safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, temperament, and specific needs so they feel secure and relaxed from the start. I make sure their environment is calm, clean, and free from hazards, and I always supervise them closely, especially during walks, mealtimes, and any interactions with other animals. I keep to the routines they are used to, including feeding times, medication (if needed), and preferred sleeping spots. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured that their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

Dog owners share their Rover experiences - Birmingham
Ben is very professional and was fantastic with our high-energy teenage lurcher Onyx - who warmed to Ben immediately when we met. Ben asked all the right questions and genuinely wanted to get to know Onyx, learn about his behaviour, understand his normal routine. He gave me some great tips too! I'm really glad to have found Ben on Rover, he's very friendly, genuine and communicative. And I've already booked more services
Ceri helped out at very short notice and maged to research the area. She turned up when agreed and took our dog on two lovely walks. Our dog Seamus seemed to have a lovely time in the photos taken on the walk and feedback from Ceri. She was a delight and I would definitely use her again.
Patricia has cared for my fur baby for around a year, providing day care and holiday care. My baby adores going there and I know she is safe and cared for. Patricia is warm, friendly and caring and follows my dogs needs to tee. Long walks, adventures, love and lots of snuggles are always given. Even camp outs when my baby sleeps over. I honestly cannot recommend her highly enough. Patricia goes above and beyond and is extremely well priced.
Tanakrit was excellent! I was a little late with Daisy, which he took in his stride. He coped with her well, she seemed very happy when he bought her back and he understood her needs - he even bought his own poo bags! I would definitely use him again. Rob Davies
Kacper was absolutely amazing with my dogs! From the start, I could tell he genuinely cared and treated them with so much kindness. He was incredibly reliable, kept me updated, and communicated clearly throughout. He also showed real understanding and patience with my reactive dog’s needs, which meant the world to me. My dogs adored him, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. I couldn’t recommend Kacper more highly!
