“Amy pet sat for me and did a fantastic job. Freddy is a rescue dog and doesn’t tend to deal well with strangers but seemed to warm to Amy almost instantly. 10/10 service, incredibly friendly- will be using her to pet sit again.”

“Inga was very polite, punctual and reliable. We came back to a happy healthy kitty and we would definitely ask Inga to look after her again.”

“Klaudia was fantastic taking care of our cats whilst we went away for a long weekend. She stayed at our house and looked after the pets as well as the house. She left it so tidy, we were super impressed! The cats accepted her right away. She followed the feeding schedules and care plans we left for her, she even went out of her way to do enrichment activities with our babies which they loved. We got regular updates with photos and felt we could relax and enjoy our time away. Would definitely recommend!”

About: As a passionate and responsible individual with a genuine love for animals, I consistently strive to provide exceptional care and companionship to my clients' beloved pets. My motivation to be a pet sitter is rooted in a deep passion for animals and a sincere desire to contribute to their wellbeing. From a young age, I have fostered a profound connection with animals, recognising them as cherished companions deserving of love, care, and understanding. This inherent love for pets has been a guiding force throughout my life, influencing my decision to become a pet sitter in my spare time (I work as a Design Manager in the water industry). Being a pet sitter aligns perfectly with my values and interests. The prospect of creating a nurturing and comfortable environment for pets in the absence of their owners resonates with me. I understand the responsibility and trust that comes with caring for someone's beloved animals, and I am committed to providing the same level of attention and affection as their owners would. Moreover, my motivation extends beyond the surface-level responsibilities of a pet sitter. I am genuinely intrigued by the unique personalities, needs, and quirks of each pet. The opportunity to forge meaningful connections with animals, ensuring not only their physical wellbeing but also their emotional happiness, is something I find incredibly rewarding. While I may not have extensive professional experience in pet sitting, I have been the proud owner of several dogs throughout my life, encompassing a diverse range of breeds and temperaments. Some of my key skills include: - A comprehensive understanding of pet behaviour, gained through extensive research, allowing me to anticipate and address the unique needs of different breeds. - Excellent communication skills, where I prioritise effective communication with pet owners to understand specific care instructions and provide updates on their pets' wellbeing. - Physical fitness, particularly essential for dogs, as their wellbeing often relies on regular exercise. I am physically fit and capable of providing dogs with the necessary physical activity to keep them happy and healthy. In summary, my motivation to be a pet sitter stems from a heartfelt connection with animals, a commitment to their holistic wellbeing, and a desire to contribute to a service that shares my values. I am eager to bring my passion and dedication to Rover and create a positive and enriching experience for both pets and their owners. I am currently working full time so I have time for pet sitting at the weekends but I can also accommodate services on weekdays after 6pm and overnight stays most days. I ask about the specific needs of the pet as different species and breeds have unique requirements. I follow the pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions and I ensure access to clean and fresh water at all times. I engage in regular playtime and exercise routines as specified by the pet owner, and take dogs for walks, play with cats using toys, or provide other appropriate activities for the pet's species. I keep the living environment clean by regularly cleaning litter boxes, cages, or designated pet areas, and I dispose of waste properly and maintain a hygienic living space. I monitor the pet's health and behaviour, and promptly report any concerns to the owner. I always stay in regular contact with the pet owner, providing updates on the pet's wellbeing.

“Matilda was amazing checking in on my cat Minnie! She has a lot of extra needs and Matilda was so great at taking care of all of them, it was so nice to know she was being looked after by someone who clearly loves animals. I will definatly be using Matilda again, thank you!”

“I highly recommend Sophie. She has looked after our pets ( dog, guinea pigs and pony) for many years, providing top quality care. I have no hesitation in leaving our pets in her care while we are away. She is diligent in all aspects of their care.”

About: I’ve had so many pets over the years. Cats, dogs, rabbits, ferrets, mice etc. I love all things fluffy. I have been part of dog walking groups whilst living in New Zealand. I am self employed so looking get out and about and how better than with a fluffy friend or two? I am available whenever :) I would say that I would treat anyone’s home like my own but I would treat it better. I am paranoid about locking gates and doors so I will check them 385294 times before leaving.

“Zara looked after my 5 dogs (1 big, 2 medium and 2 puppies). She fed and walked them just how I wanted and did a brilliant job. They love her company :)”
