House Sitting Blofield

About: I’ve had dogs all my life from Dachshunds and terriers through to rescues and Labradors. I’ve recently retired and lost my companion Charlie so I’m hoping to invest my love in your precious one now. I’m recently retired so expect to spend all day with your pet, making them part of my life while they are with me. I live in a city centre maisonette and have a small secure outside space for fresh air, but there are also parks near me and all the smells and excitement of the city. I follow whatever exercise routine and rules you have at home. Pets can come on the sofa for cuddles if you allow that, and can either sleep downstairs or upstairs on the bed with me.

“Dylan loves spending time with Chloe. Chloe is reliable and respectful. She and Dylan now go on walks and are getting a stronger bond. We really appreciate all her help.”

About: I had my own pet sitting business based in Winchester pre-covid. I have looked after groups of up to 8 large dogs for weeks at a time and have always dog walked. I have my own dog which I share with an ex-partner therefore will be available during the times I am not looking after him. I currently work full time, however I have the freedom to work from home and manage my hours therefore I have time to stay at the property all day or pop back and forth should I need to attend the office. I drive and can manage any pet sitting jobs needed around the times of having my own dog. When staying at a pet owners home, ideally I want to stick to the same routine as you in order to now upset your pets in anyway, I am happy to discuss with you any routines and make sure I have clear feeding/medication instructions.

“Abigail looked after our dog for us while we were on holiday and he had the best staycation with her and her dog. We felt reassured he was having the comforts of a home away from home and were kept up updated with photos during his time there. Would definitely recommend Abigail she has a passion for dogs and our dog Reggie settled very quickly with her in her home! Abigail was brilliant and accommodating particularly as Reggie needed some extra care whilst he was recovering from a recent operation.”

“Sophie is absolutely amazing, she's a lovely person and all of my pets adore her, they are so happy to see her when she comes to stay. She has a very gentle and loving approach towards all of them, she sends lots of photos, videos and messages though out her stay, which is lovely to be able to see how they are all doing. I have no worries when leaving our home and pets in Sophie's care, as she respects your home and pets, and always leaves everything clean and tidy when she leaves. My husband and I highly recommend Sophie. ❤️❤️❤️”

About: I have looked after many pets in my time from friends to family pets and would like to do it more frequently as a lover of animals. I am out of education and saving up for university in September. I work throughout the week in hospitality so I can work around schedules very easily. As i look after mostly dogs, obviously dependent on the age and breed i will take on daily walks or runs even in parks or beaches near. As my shift schedules are short i spend a lot of time hanging out and playing with pets. I am also extremely active so can made due with whatever needs they may have.

“Dora looked after our two dogs at our home while we were on holiday. I booked last minute as our usual dog sitter was unwell but Dora was so accommodating. She came over and met me and the dogs beforehand - she was well prepared and so so lovely with the dogs. Dora kept us up to date during our holiday with pictures of the dogs who obviously took to her instantly. She is responsible, respectful and an all round lovely person who genuinely loves animals. I felt that they and our house were in very safe hands and I couldn’t recommend Dora enough.”

About: Healthcare student, I love what I do working with a variety of people. Outside of work, I’m a huge animal lover. I grew up with two rescue cats who were part of our family for many years.

“David looked after our spaniel and elderly cat for 10 days. He did exactly that! Doug (spaniel) bonded well with David, he was even allowed to sleep with him (as he does us). Our elderly cat Millie is a rather solitary and shy soul however seemed perfectly herself when we returned home. I would recommend David to look after your pets, he even watered the plants for us. Thanks David and we hope you enjoyed your stay with our pets. June & Mark 🐾🐾🐾🐾”

About: Hi, my name is Nick and I live with my wife Louise, and Florence, our very good-natured pug. Florence gets on well with other dogs and loves to go for a walk with our furry guests. Louise and I have always been dog lovers and we've had dogs and other pets all our lives, mostly small breeds like pugs and dachshunds. We've cared for friends' dogs and pets while they've been away overnight or on longer holidays and have built up a very satisfied client list through Rover. We all live in a two-storey detached house with a fully enclosed garden in a village near the Norfolk Broads. There are excellent road links from Norwich and other parts of Norfolk. We love sharing our home with other dogs who need love and attention while their parents are away. Our guests keep Florence company and all the walks keep us fit and active. We're active people and we love the beach and countryside. If your dog prefers a more sedentary stay, we're good with cuddling and TV in front of the fire too. Your dog can expect a lot of attention and love 💕. We're used to dogs of all ages including the elderly. We can administer medication, eye drops, and anything else your pet needs. Ear cleaning and over-nose wrinkles are a specialty of mine! Let us know if your dog needs special attention or care, or has specific requirements and we'll do our very best to accommodate these needs. Our goal is to make your dog feel at home and loved while you're away, and to make you feel confident that they'll be cared for in a loving environment. We know the anxieties that come with leaving your dog while you're away. We'll take regular photos for you and send them to you through the Rover app. We're always happy to answer any questions or queries you have and do what we can to put your mind at ease so you can enjoy your holiday. The services we offer are: Feeding, walking, brushing, washing, cleaning nose and ears, and lots of cuddles. Certifications: • Accredited Dog First Aid and CPR Drop off and pickup: We can be flexible for your dropoff needs - early mornings and evenings are fine. Rover automatically applies an extended booking rate if care periods exceed a 24 hour period. Please see the help section for details: Help Centre > I'm a pet owner > Payments Please provide: • Enough food for your dog's stay • Your dog's basket/bet and blanket or bedding • Toys and treats • Collar/harness and lead. It is a legal requirement that all dogs must have an ID tag with their owner's contact details. Emergency contacts: Your Rover profile must be complete and include your contact details, a backup contact, and the contact information of the dog's regular veterinarian. I'm self-employed and work from home, or anywhere I can plug in my laptop. I've a very flexible schedule so there's plenty of time for one-to-one attention and playtime. Your dog's schedule can easily become mine. Louise works from home too so there's always one of us at home to care for your dog. We only care for one guest dog in our home but I'm very happy to care for two dogs in your home. Looking after other small pets and cats in your home is fine too. I'm used to feeding pond fish as well as the wild birds. I've looked after friends' guinea pigs too. I've been DBS checked and we're very reliable and trustworthy. We're very happy to meet with you and your dog before you trust us to look after them - a 'meet and greet' is essential prior to booking for the first time so we can understand your dog's needs.

“Patryece was amazing! She took the best care of our doggos while we were out for a long day. She was polite, respectful and very communicative during the day. I have 100% trust in Patryece and will for sure be asking her to take take care of our dogs again!!”

About: I’m a reliable and active dog sitter based in the Norfolk Broads countryside, where there’s no shortage of scenic walks and open spaces for dogs to enjoy. Having spent years around the countryside, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and energy levels, whether they enjoy long adventures, relaxed strolls, or plenty of playtime. I understand the importance of keeping dogs safe, happy, and sticking to their usual routines, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work night shifts on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, which means I have plenty of availability during the day and on my days off. I’m flexible with walks, feeding routines, and spending time with dogs, and I can provide a reliable and consistent routine around my work schedule. Living in the countryside also means access to plenty of quiet walking routes and open spaces. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is in the Norfolk countryside, with a calm environment and plenty of space for dogs to relax. I’ll make sure your dog feels secure, receives plenty of attention, and follows their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand every dog has different needs, so I’ll take the time to learn their personality, habits, and any requirements before their stay
