“Angus walked Cracker everyday while I was in hospital. He took him on the beach where he had a great run around every day.”


“This is the first time we have used a dog service for our dogs and wish we would have found Michael and Geoff sooner! The good thing about them is they walk our staffies alone unlike other dog walkers where they have a few dogs at a time. We are also going to use them for boarding too in the future as they have a secure garden with no other dogs which is perfect! Communication is great and they are flexible and reliable. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone!”


“Thanks Cath, those photos are fab, he definitely looks happy and a sniff around yours at the end is a great warm up for next Thursday!”


About: I’ve had my cat since she was 8 weeks old—she’s now around 2 and a half, happy, healthy, and spoiled! Since joining Rover, I’ve also looked after a puppy named Reuben for about 6 weeks, and I’ve completed a few cat sitting jobs. I understand the care and attention pets need, and I’m always happy to help other pet owners feel at ease when they’re away. I’m currently unemployed and looking for work, so I’m fully available for pet care. I enjoy spending time with animals and like to keep busy with side hustles and helping out other pet owners. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine right now. I live in a spacious ground floor flat with a small shared garden. It’s very cat-friendly with toys, a cat tower, and cozy spots to relax. My cat enjoys going out on nice days and always comes back home safely. Pets are welcome on the sofa and bed—just like my own! I take pride in creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for animals.

“Thankyou Jane for coming to my rescue to walk our Border Collie! She's had a great time and any time we need a walker again I will definitely be in touch.”


“Georgia was kind enough to come back after my wimpy scared of unfamiliar cars boy wouldn't get in her van! So she came back to ours and walked him on the field near our house and Odin came back a very happy and tired boy. Georgia is clearly an animal lover and has a special way with dogs, she was confident enough to walk Odin off lead which I'm happy about as that's what he's used to. I can't thank her enough for putting me at ease with the pictures and video as she's pet sitting Odin in our home in July for our wedding. Odin is looking forward to it I'm sure. Thankyou Georgia!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, my family always had a dog in the house. I would always help to feed or bathe and occasionally help on the vet visits. No job is too big or too small when it comes to caring for your pet or someone else's. I would treat all dogs as if they were my own as I know from personal experience that my dogs mean so much to me as they are my fur babies!! I'm currently a stay at home Mum, so I have plenty of free time to go on lots of long dog walks or just chill in the park. Occasionally, we may even meet up with some furry friends in the park or chase away the squirrels. Whichever the dog prefers! My 2 dogs are my fur babies and my absolute world, other than my daughter they are the most important things in my life. It's also important to build that trust and bond with other people's pets in order to provide a safe and calm environment for all, because a calm dog is a happy dog.
