“Alison was brilliant, it was our first time leaving Hector and we were so anxious. Alison put us at ease and we felt really comfortable leaving him. She provided regular updates and pictures and he had a fab time. Would definitely book again”
“Elizabeth was amazing, she was able to sit last minute due to a medical emergency. She arrived quickly, was able to take digger for a night time walk ( which he loved) she stayed over and walked him again on the second day ( over 3 hours which again he loved) and waited until we got home. Highly recommended 😍”

About: I’m a qualified, force-free dog trainer at Biscuits Buddies Dog Training I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds and personalities. I’m particularly experienced with nervous, anxious and sensitive dogs, as well as dogs who may need a little more patience and understanding. I’m confident reading canine body language and always work at the individual dog’s pace, using kind, reward-based methods. I also have experience with puppies, senior dogs, large breeds and dogs with additional behavioural or emotional needs. I understand that every dog is different, so I’ll always follow their usual routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and understood while in my care. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog as an individual , not just another booking! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally around my day, and when your dog is with me they’ll enjoy plenty of attention, enrichment, toilet breaks and time to relax. Please note that this is not a 24-hour supervision service. Dogs under my care must be comfortable being left home alone for periods of up to 4 hours during the day, as I may need to leave the house for work, appointments or errands. I’ll always make sure your dog’s needs are met before I leave and that they have a safe, comfortable space to settle until I return. 🐾 Your dog’s safety and wellbeing will always come first. As a professional force-free dog trainer, I’m experienced in reading canine body language and recognising when a dog may be feeling worried, overwhelmed or simply needs some space. In my care, dogs are treated as part of the family and given a comfortable, calm environment with plenty of opportunity to rest. I’ll follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medication and any individual care requirements. I only use kind, force-free handling and will never use punishment or aversive equipment. I also take introductions and interactions with other dogs carefully, rather than assuming every dog wants or needs to socialise. I want both you and your dog to feel completely comfortable, so I’m always happy to discuss their individual needs, quirks and routines before their stay. 🐾

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Blaenau Gwent
We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Belinda. She looked after our boy Leroy and it went above and beyond anything we expected. Leroy is a rescue and can be really nervous around strangers as he’s scared they might hurt him, so leaving him has always been something we’ve worried about. We had never left him overnight before, and with our wedding coming up, we were really panicking about what to do as all of our trusted people would be there with us. Then we found Belinda — and from the very start, she completely put our minds at ease. She wasn’t put off by Leroy at all and took the time to visit several times beforehand, showing so much patience, understanding, and genuine care. It didn’t take long at all for Leroy to warm to her, which says everything. On the day itself, she kept us updated and sent so many lovely photos, which meant the world to us and helped us relax and enjoy our wedding knowing he was in such safe hands. We truly can’t express how grateful we are. Thanks to Belinda, we now feel confident enough to even plan a honeymoon knowing Leroy will be so well looked after. Highly, highly recommend 💛

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Blaenau Gwent walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
House sitting is priced per night and generally includes an overnight stay. In the city of Blaenau Gwent, the price of house sitting can vary between £26 and £35 per night.
Just make sure you and your sitter agree on the actual hours they'll stay in your home before you accept the booking. Each sitter has their own routine, and some might suit your schedule better than others. Keep your messages on the Rover app for future reference.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a 'home base' service. Most sitters in Blaenau Gwent maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for 'WFH' sitters: Many sitters mention 'Work from Home' on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical 'away' windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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.

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.
