“Trina really looked after our Monte, so good to find someone that you can trust with your pet and your home. It’s obvious how much she loves animals and she went out of her way to get to know our pet before sitting for him. Very attentive, trustworthy, caring, would highly recommend”
“Adam has been fantastic since the second we reached out to him. The gremlins absolutely love him. He's always responsive to messages and requests, and there is nothing he wouldn't do for the girls. We are so lucky to have found him. He also takes amazing photos!”
“Sarah was very friendly and welcoming when she came and met our little cat Tokyo. We had updates every evening, which was great while away missing Tokyo. When we came back from holiday Tokyo seemed a very happy cat, and was well cared for. Will definitely be using Sarah again for our cat sitter in the future 😊”
“I couldn’t recommend Tia and Matt enough. They have been a massive help with our new little pup Skye. They treat her like one of her own and is absolutely spoilt rotten when we’re away. I can leave the house knowing full well that Skye will have the best time. They are so flexible and have been able to help us out at very short enough. We’re so appreciative for everything they’ve done to help our Skye have fulfilling and fun days when we are having to work.”
About: We are a retired couple living in Bridgend. We have had dogs all our lives, however unfortunately, we recently lost our beloved Tilly. We are unable to commit to a pet full time, so hoping to help others by inviting theirs to stay with us. We are retired and are home a lot during the day. We are able to go on long walks, down the beach or to our local field. We have a lot of time on our hands, so would love to bring in a new sense of life to our home with your pets keeping us company. We have a closed garden, bungalow where we both live. We do not have children or other pets and are non smokers. We can offer what is required, including administering medication where needed. I was actually a carer for many years, so know the importance of being specific with requirements.
“Danielle jumped in last minute to look after our 5 cats one of which needs medication. She provided updates and photos and checked in to let us know how they were all doing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Danielle and we will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thanks Danielle, your caring for our cats put our minds at rest.”
About: I have had pets all my life. Taking care of big dogs, cats and many other small animals. I am responsible and kind, I have a clean drivers license and a willing to travel. I am often available with an empty schedule and want to spend some more time with animals and nature. I am currently a post graduate looking to begin a career, meaning I have a lot of time to give to your pet love and attention. I have lots of availability and am free to board almost every day. I currently live in a large farmhouse surrounded by countryside, which has a large fenced garden, so plenty of room for your pet to run and play with me.
About: Your Dog's Second Best Friends! We are an animal loving couple offering reliable dog walking and drop-in services. Having both grown up with dogs from a young age, we have extensive hands on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, including German Shepherds, Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Spaniels, Jack Russells, and Poodles. Why Choose Us? 🐶 Service Dog Background: Emily grew up alongside active service guide dogs, giving her firsthand experience with highly disciplined routines, specialized care, and advanced canine behavior. 🐾 Kennel Volunteering: Emily also spent time volunteering at a local kennel, gaining a deep understanding of safe handling and attentive care for all temperaments. 🌳 Outdoor Lovers: We love being outside and understand how vital exercise, mental stimulation, and routine are for a happy, healthy pup. What We Offer Whether it's a high energy walk, playtime, companionship, or a quick check-in while you're away, we tailor our care to your dog's individual needs. 🦮 We Love Training! We genuinely enjoy working on dog training and reinforcement. Thanks to our background, we are more than happy to help maintain consistency and practice skills, like basic commands, leash manners, or puppy socialisation during our walks and visits! Above all, we care deeply about animal welfare. We treat every dog as if they were our own, putting their safety, comfort, and happiness first to give you complete peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine thanks to our flexible work schedules. Emily works from home 4–5 days a week, allowing her to carry out local check-ins throughout the day as well as dog walks during lunch breaks and in the evenings.

We are also available on Saturdays and on many Sundays, depending on Josh's American football commitments. Trust is paramount to us. We understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your dog is a big decision, and we take that responsibility very seriously. We will always treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring it is left exactly as we found it. Most importantly, we will ensure your dog is safe, comfortable, and happy while in our care. We know that dogs are much more than pets, they are cherished family members. We feel genuinely grateful whenever we are trusted to care for someone's dog, and we will do everything possible to ensure they receive the love, attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Your dog's wellbeing will always be our top priority, giving you complete peace of mind while you're away.
“Yasmin was great, Murphy was a very happy cat when i got home. He had eaten all of his food and treats that Yasmin had left out for him. She followed instructions and looked after Murphy perfectly. Thank you!”
“Jason stepped in for us at short notice when another sitter let us down. He was very quick to respond to messages and super friendly. Whilst we were away he sent lots of pictures of our kitten and kept us updated. Jason made us feel so at ease leaving Pippin alone for the first time. We will definitely have him to cat sit again in the new year! Thank you Jason ☺️”
About: Have experience of various pets: cats, dogs, guinea pigs, tortoises, stick insects. Elderly animals. Did work experience placement at Centre for Life Studies, London Zoo. I currently work full time, Monday to Friday, but am being made redundant in May, so will be available full time from 8th May onwards. I will be looking after pets in their own home.

About: I’ve grown up with pets for as long as I can remember, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable while they’re away from home. I live in a peaceful rural area with plenty of space for dogs to explore, play, or simply relax and enjoy the quiet surroundings. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs for friends and family, from regular walks to longer stays, and I always treat them with the same care and attention I would give my own pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I aim to provide a calm, loving environment where they feel settled, cared for, and part of the family. I am currently self-employed and work from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to walk, care for, and give attention to your dogs throughout the day. I have plenty of space here for them to roam around, play, and feel comfortable in a safe environment. I have a large enclosed garden to keep your dogs safe and secure while they play and explore. I currently don’t have any other dogs at home, which makes it a calm and peaceful environment, especially well suited for quieter or more timid dogs.
About: I love all animals, from the tiniest to the hugest! Dogs and cats have been part of my life since I was very small. Growing up with dogs and cats, looking after friends, family & neighbours pets while they were out, working, on holiday or ill. If I am honest, I often prefer to spend my time with furry friends than with human ones. My care and love for any animal is no different than for my own. Unfortunately I lost both of my dogs to old age over the past 2 years and miss them like crazy. My best buds. I am confident with any breed of dog, would respect any of your training rules and follow them for consistency. I have experience with medication administration and senior care. I love walking, so me and your fur baby would have the best times out & about. I would only walk one to one, never group walk, so my attention and care would be for your dog only, and so long as it was ok with your dog, there would be lots of cuddles available!! Although my profile states I have a dog, Dixie does not live with me, she lives with my Son...I am Dixie's Nanny 💖 I am also DBS checked. Use this link below (copy & paste) for £15 off a new booking for new Rover users 🤩 https://www.rover.com/sit/gillm16415 I currently work from home so have plenty of time for play dates & cuddles with your dog or cat!

About: Me and my partner Kieran have always been massive dog lovers. I have grown up with border collies and poochons. My boyfriend has grown up with German Shepard's, dachshunds and cocker spaniels. We now own our own house and are proud dog owners of an adorable cockapoo called Bruno. I work a Tuesday- Friday shift pattern. My partner works Monday- Friday working from home a few days a week.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and grew up around all sorts of breeds, from tiny Chihuahuas and Terriers to larger Dalmatians and Hounds. During my time travelling in Australia, I dog sat in different locations and even got to care for a dingo mix, which was such a special experience. Whether your dog loves long walks and exploring or prefers curling up on the sofa, I’m happy to match their energy and make them feel right at home. I currently work part-time supporting children with additional needs, helping them travel safely to and from school. This allows me to be consistently available for pet sitting during the day, usually between 9:30am and 2:30pm. I always aim to make pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking to their usual routine. In your home, I aim to follow all instructions closely from feeding and walks to playtime and any little habits that help them feel at ease.
About: We always had pets at home (from fish to dogs) and I have always been happy to look after my friends and colleages' little ones :) both at my parents when I was younger, later at mine, or at the pet's own place more recently. I've never had any incident to report. I would love to adopt a dog but I can't have pets where I live, sadly. I love to be outdoors and I miss my big dog's company when I go around. There is a lot to explore aroud here... I can take dogs to the beach, the mountain or even to the safari! Wouldn't be the first time and it was great :) Usully available in the afternoons/evenings but I've got no set routine right now so it will be on a day by day basis, please get in touch and see if I can help :) It will depend on each pet and what they need & like, but will always treat them with love and respect. I can easily accomodate activities, just let me know what they like or dislike and any routines or training you're following, so I will do accordingly.

Danielle jumped in last minute to look after our 5 cats one of which needs medication. She provided updates and photos and checked in to let us know how they were all doing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Danielle and we will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thanks Danielle, your caring for our cats put our minds at rest.
Adam was brilliant with Kobe and had really good knowledge of the breed, which instantly put us at ease. He took the time to get to know Kobe and spent lots of time playing with him, so we felt completely reassured that he was happy and in safe hands. We also really appreciated the pictures and updates while he was there. 🐶 We’ll definitely be using Adam again. Thank you so much!
Sarah was very friendly and welcoming when she came and met our little cat Tokyo. We had updates every evening, which was great while away missing Tokyo. When we came back from holiday Tokyo seemed a very happy cat, and was well cared for. Will definitely be using Sarah again for our cat sitter in the future 😊

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.
Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Bridgend pet parents with similar pet households.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
