“Lauren was lovely and friendly at the meet and greet and did a great job of looking after my cats and guinea pigs while we were away. We got lovely reports and photos - we will definitely book Lauren again ☺️!”
“Sapphire was great with my cat Whiskey! She was very reliable, and gave us a peace of mind while we were on holiday by providing regular updates on him & his activities including eating habits. We will definitely rebook Sapphire again in the future! (:”
“Emily was an absolute star, saving us with a very last minute request for a dog sitter. Responding swiftly with messages, but also driving through the snow to come meet Buffy before hand. Buffy made a new best friend the moment Emily arrived, showing how great she is with dogs and we can't thank her enough for looking after our dog x”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have always been a huge animal lover. I currently have a 6 year old Staffy named Myla, who is my baby! so I understand just how much our pets mean to us. I’m caring, patient and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own. Whether they need lots of cuddles, playtime, walks or simply some company, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe and loved while you’re away. I currently work part-time, running my own Baby Sensory class, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of free time in the mornings and afternoons to care for your best friends. I absolutely love animals and would be so happy to spend my free time looking after them. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care can feel daunting, so I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention and reassurance while you’re away. I’m a very house proud person myself, so I understand how important it is to feel confident that your home is being well looked after while you’re away. I will always treat your home with the same care and respect that I would my own. I’m happy to follow any house rules or instructions you have in place, whether that’s keeping certain areas off limits, following your usual routines, taking care of plants or simply making sure everything is kept clean and tidy. I’ll always be respectful of your belongings and your privacy, and I’ll make sure your home is left just as I found it. My aim is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away, knowing both your home and your pets are in safe, caring and responsible hands.

She obviously loves animals and made an effort to interact with Rupert during her visits and whilst usually timid he warmed towards Martha and enjoyed the attention. I would recommend Martha for cat-sitting and if I need someone to look after Rupert when I am away again I would not hesitate to use Martha.”

Thank you so much Charlotte! ❤️ Charlotte looked after our two cats over the week, kept me posted with pics & videos, I had such peace of mind knowing she’s been checking up on them and going out of her way to give them lots of love and attention. 🥹❤️ I really appreciate everything you’ve done — it means so much! They’ve clearly been in such good hands. 🐾❤️ Would highly recommend Charlotte & am looking forward to having her over again! ☺️
Very happy with service, Emily is really easy to communicate with and overall a trustworthy person. I had her for home visits to feed my two cats whilst we were away, their litter trays were kept clean as well as their food and water bowls. She contacted me every day with photo's and updates which I really appreciated, my cats have been just fine whilst we've been gone. I highly recommend this sitter, I would book with her again in future!

Yes. There are up to 3,201 pet sitters offering care in and around Blaby. To find a sitter who is available during your working hours, enter your address, select the days and time slots when you need care, and review matching local profiles.
Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.
You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.
Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
