About: Hi, I’m Kim. I’m a reliable, calm and caring person with a genuine love for animals. I’ve grown up around pets and have experience caring for cats, dogs and other animals from a young age. I enjoy spending time outdoors walking, and I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, happy and well looked after. I’m very organised and dependable, with many years of experience in customer-focused roles where trust and responsibility were essential. I bring that same level of care and attention when looking after pets, making sure they feel comfortable and settled in their routine. Whether it’s walks, visits or companionship, I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine as I already care for my own pets and enjoy spending time with animals. For this reason, I provide care in the owner’s home, where pets are often more comfortable and settled in their familiar environment. I am organised, reliable and flexible with my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent care, attention and companionship. I care for pets in the owner’s home where they are most comfortable and settled in their familiar environment. I follow the owner’s routines carefully, including feeding, walks, playtime and any specific care instructions, while ensuring pets feel safe, happy and well looked after.

“Ellé was excellent - our first time using a sitter, our boys coped much better being at home & Ellé was attentive, kept them fed & clean, even had time to keep them entertained every day. Will definitely use this service again! Thank you Ellé.”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for friends, family, and neighbours. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or keeping them company while owners are away, I always make sure each dog feels comfortable, safe, and happy. I enjoy long countryside and riverside walks around Bridgnorth and always tailor the route to match each dog’s age, energy, and needs. I’m experienced with both young, energetic dogs and calm seniors who need a gentler pace. I’m reliable, patient, and happy to provide photo updates during walks so owners can see their pets enjoying themselves. I treat every dog as if they were my own — with kindness, care, and plenty of attention. 🐾 I work shifts as a residential activity worker, which gives me lots of full days off throughout the week. That means I have plenty of time to give dogs long, relaxed walks and extra attention during the day. I’m flexible and can often accommodate last-minute bookings, especially on my off days. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. Whether walking or visiting them at home, I keep to their normal routine and provide calm, consistent attention. I’m confident handling dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I take extra care on walks to ensure they stay secure and happy. I also provide photo updates so owners can relax knowing their pets are in good hands.

About: I’ve always grown up around dogs so I have a lot of experience in looking after and taking care of your fur babies! I love going for walks and exploring! I will always look after your pets as if there were my own. I now have 2 cats who I adore. I’m currently working part time from home so I will have lots of time to look after your pets and provide them with loving care and attention. I am a very trustworthy person and will always look after your pet & property and make sure it is always left safe, tidy and secure. :)

“Kelly is absolutely fantastic. So friendly, informative and reassuring. She provided us with lots of photos and updates. Lots of communication before, during and after her visit and made us feel totally at ease. We will be re-booking with her weekly. Couldn’t recommend Kelly enough!”

About: Hello and welcome to my profile. I have a DBS check and a long track record of immaculately caring for homes and animals. When dogs stay for boarding or daycare, I provide a loving home away from home so they can feel relaxed, comfortable and happy. Similarly, with housesitting I provide the stability of a loving and happy home in familiar surroundings. This provides total peace of mind so you can enjoy your time away, knowing I'm caring for your beloved furry family member as if they were my own. I have over 10 years of experience on various pet sitting platforms and regularly receive repeat bookings. I work from home and have flexible hours, which means that your dog(s) will have constant company, care and attention the entire time. I live near the Shropshire Way and Wenlock Edge, which provide wonderful opportunities for off-lead adventures. Your dog(s) will receive at least one long walk a day for 30 mins to an hour (depending on their size, health and usual walking habits), plus 2-3 shorter walks to check out all the smells and goings on in the area while enjoying a comfort break. If you have a high-energy dog that needs two long walks a day (e.g. 2 x one hour) I can provide this for a small added fee. I've had many wonderful experiences while pet sitting, including caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, horses, ponies, alpacas, chickens, ducks, sheep, goats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish, turtles, and even the odd snake. I especially enjoy building long-term relationships where I'm able to develop a strong bond with the animals, so dogs feel instantly relaxed in my presence and their owners can feel totally relaxed too. If you require housesitting and have a large number of animals please message me for a quote, as I can offer a capped rate based on their daily requirements rather than charging per pet. For example, I recently completed a 2 week sit with 2 dogs, 2 cats, 3 horses, 2 guinea pigs, 1 snake, 3 alpacas and a flock of sheep. I will always follow your established routine to give your pets familiarity and comfort. I can care for your pets in the comfort of their own surroundings or provide them with a loving home away from home. I only care for up to two dogs at a time for boarding or daycare, which means I can give them my full attention at all times. I also avoid mixing dogs from different households unless they have already been introduced and I know they get on well together. I'd be happy to organise a complimentary Meet & Greet before the first stay so we can all get to know each other. I often house and pet sit with my 10-year-old son, with the full approval of the owners of course. He has been accustomed to pet and house sitting from a young age and adores animals as much as I do. He tends to bond with them instantly and never tires of throwing balls and showering them with affection. If my son is with me, rest assured that he and your pets will be fully supervised by me (as your sitter) at all times. This ensures your animals receive the utmost care and attention, in full compliance with the Rover Guarantee.

About: Having had dogs in my own home since the age of 7 I feel more than qualified to keep yours happy. From teaching my ‘untrainable’ lurcher agility to pottering around with my elderly vizsla I’ve done it all. I have dog sat for various homes since I was 15 which inspired me to do my zoology degree and later to begin this degree in veterinary medicine. I have just completed a six month placement working as a wildlife care assistant where I not only learned valuable first aid skills but also invaluable experience in animal welfare and handling. My degree is 9-5 on Weekdays with Wednesdays and weekends off- I have plenty around this to help enrich your let! This is also only in term time so I am available for longer stays during the holidays My garden is completely fenced off with no exits (trust me if there were my dog would’ve found them!). The most important thing in my book of pet sitting is company and that means regular checks and playtime making sure everybody is safe at all times.

“It was a pleasure to meet Lauren. She came for a drop-in to meet my dog and to get oriented with the house in preparation for a whole day of dog sitting. I am feeling confident that the day will go well.”

About: As listed in my cat care details, I have 100 hours veterinary work experience where I would interact with owners dogs and cats and maintain their health and fulfil husbandry tasks. I have completed a level 1 and 2 animal care courses at a distinction level. This gave me experience in Heath checks, cleaning, feeding and watering, handling and grooming a huge variety of animals from harvest mice and hamsters to common cuscus and California kingsnakes. I have also assisted my mom on rover pre 18 to help with dog boardings and caring for others animals in their homes including cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with animals (since 2 months old) and have always been eager to help in their pet care. I’ve had: cats 🐈, dogs 🐕, rabbits 🐇 and fish 🐟 I’m 100% okay with house sitting pets whenever for however long however, during most weekdays I would be out of house to attend college. I am free on weekends and I’ll have an updated timetable by September 5th. At home, I’m always doing little tasks for my pets wether it’s feeding or playing with them, they always have my attention. 🤍 Because I have cats and dogs, my cats have their own designated room for quiet and peace including a variety of beds, toys, multiple litter trays, mostly raw fed diet whilst still having as many cuddles possible 🐾. Our dogs have their own crates for quiet time with even more beddings, Toys, regular walks, fenced gardens and also a designated area in the garden for them to roam longer than a toilet break 🐾

“Ruta was very punctual, tidy and provided lovely pictures of our pets. They were nice and calm when we arrived home and she left everything very clean. She followed our requests for food and company to the letter. Would definitely recommend.”

On our meet and greet meeting, Alysha had all the paperwork ready for us to give her all the necessary information about our fur baby. Alysha was on time and sent plenty of updates. Great communication from start to finish. 100% recommended. Thank you! X”

About: Having grown up with dogs including West Highland Terriers, Jack Russells, Labradors, Beagles, and Welsh Sheepdogs, caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. I fostered dogs and cats while living in Egypt, spent 10 months living in Amigos de los Animales dog shelter in Loiza, Puerto Rico helping to re-socialise dogs following Hurricane Maria, and later lived in and worked as Volunteer Manager for Colitas con Canas, the only dog shelter in Peru's Sacred Valley, caring for elderly and disabled dogs, including rehabilitating a very special dog called 'Olly' who came to us after having both of his back legs crushed as a young puppy. With my care and attention, he recovered from his injuries and could be re-homed by his forever family in France. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of nervous, rescue, senior, and special-needs dogs, as well as the patience and confidence to help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I work as a natural health therapist, out of treatment clinics in Shrewsbury, Much Wenlock and home visits. However, as I am recovering myself from a health crisis last year, I only see one client per day for a maximum of 2 hours (not including travel time). This gives me lots of time and flexibility to suit your schedule and dogs' needs. I love spending time outdoors and enjoy taking dogs on enriching walks while exploring local woodland areas. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic adventure, a relaxed stroll, or simply companionship and gentle care, I tailor my approach to their individual personality and needs. Your pet will be treated with the same kindness, attention, and respect that I would give my own. I work as a holistic therapist. This gives me freedom and flexibility in my schedule to suit your dog’s needs. I only see one or two clients per day for two hour treatment sessions with plenty of time in between for walks, cuddles and bathroom breaks. I live in an annex flat on my mother’s 3-acre small holding. I don’t have my own garden but our property borders woodland areas with accessible walks to the River Severn. The apartment is a studio with its own bathroom and small balcony area, with plenty of light and fresh air.

About: I have taken care of all sorts of pets, all sorts of dog size and temperaments, along with ferocious and loving cats. I love all animals and happy to go the extra mile for your beloved pets. I work full time, but I am happy to board after 5 on week days to take care of your pets, and I am available every weekend. I can drive and come to you, making it more convenient for you, I will happily feed and take your fur baby’s for walks and I can’t wait to take great care of them.

About: I am a qualified Dog Trainer, with a BSc in Canine Behaviour. I have cared for family friends and neighbours dogs and even cute puppies! I’m currently volunteering part time but happy to adjust, depending on timings and owners’ preferences for their dogs. Ensuring dogs are happy and healthy! 1. I will ensure the environment is safe and secure on arrival and departure. 2. Making sure the dog(s) are okay and not stressed.

About: Being a registered veterinary nurse I have the experience others may not. I am fully trained in CPR and emergency care and can also administer medications to poorly or chronically ill animals. In addition to this, I can provide adaptive care depending on your pets needs whether they are young and need more training and extra enrichment or whether they are senior and need extra support. I have horses, dogs, chickens and a cat myself! I’m happy to care for all kinds of animals and my main aim is to create a bond that allows them to be comfortable, stress- free and happy! I’m currently working 40 hour weeks. My shift days alternate but I tend to have most weekends off as I do one in four weekends, so weekend work would be most preferred but would be open to talking about drop ins/ walks in the week. I won’t be able to have an animal in my own home due to having so many animals I wouldn’t want to risk neither being uncomfortable.

“Jacob did drop-in visits to care for my cat, guinea pig, tortoise and hamster while I was away for the bank holiday weekend. He was great and sent lots of updates and lovely photos over the weekend. I felt very reassured that my pets were in good hands and I would definitely book with him again, thanks Jacob!”

About: I am a semi retired NHS nurse, currently living in Kinver, on the edge of national trust walks. I fostered cats for 15 years and still have regular updates from the families they went to. I travelled to Thailand to volunteer working in an elephant village. Then volunteered for Soi Dog foundation in Thailand, with rescued street dogs and cats. In the UK both my brothers had dogs. Pally has a 12 year old husky called Enzo. My younger brothers dog Lara, passed away last year. They bought her back from Canada as a puppy. I have house and pet sat since 2013. I adore animals and cats are my favourite. I found elephants a bit heavy for lap cuddles!! I’d be delighted to spend time with your beautiful babies, I’ve just returned from Somerset where I looked after Willow and Toby. I’ve been sitting for Toby since 2013, since then Lisa’s pet family has included a rabbit, a guinea pig, Gina a rescue from France, an African hedgehog, a turtle and fish! And now Willow too, she’s a rescue greyhound about 8. My cat Tigga has travelled with me to my sons, in Seaton Delaval, where we slept in my campervan. She goes and comes as she pleases, she’s a fabulous travel companion. She doesn’t wear a leash and always comes back. We’ve been camping together as well as to festivals. She loves it. As a semi retired nurse, I have flexibility with when and where I choose to work. Having family and friends all over the uk, I combine visits with sits. So I can cover further distances if needed. I have lived with animals and children for nearly 40 years. Animals are definitely easier! I am happy to give medication etc, i am comfortable looking after elderly cats and dogs. I am happy to prepare specialised food if it is required. I will care for your home and your pets like my own. I respect your space and your babies.
