About: Lara and I, have strong cat-care experience, from daily feeding and playtime to deep-cleaning litter boxes and keeping routines consistent. Lara has rescued her 2 black cats, Cove and Stumpy, from being thrown out when they were young and has been taking care of them since then. We're both comfortable with shy or senior cats and can handle simple medication needs. We're patient, reliable, and genuinely love making cats feel safe, relaxed, and understood.

I'll make sure every pet gets consistent care and attention at times that work best for you and your routine. We'll prioritise safety, comfort, and a calm environment for every pet. Me and my partner Lara, will keep areas clean and secure, follow feeding and medication routines carefully, and give plenty of attention and supervision.

About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals. Growing up, I owned two dogs — a Cocker Spaniel and a Springer Spaniel — which gave me a strong foundation in responsible pet care and training. I also kept budgies and successfully raised their chicks, gaining valuable experience in handling and nurturing small animals. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have looked after friends’ dogs of various breeds and sizes while they were on holiday, ensuring each pet received appropriate exercise, attention, and care. More recently, I have been providing cat care for my neighbours during their time away, maintaining their routines and offering companionship. I take pride in providing reliable, compassionate, and attentive care for all animals entrusted to me. I am currently working full time 9-5 during the week and looking for some lovely pets to help me relax after a stressful day at work. I am also willing to offer my services on weekends depending on my availability. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and special needs, ensuring they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s following specific feeding instructions, keeping walks safe and fun, or sending regular updates, I treat every dog as if they were my own. You can trust that your pet will be in responsible, loving hands at all times.
“Chardone was really lovely and took great care of Sylvester whilst I was away. I was a bit apprehensive of using a service as I’ve always used friends/family in the past, and have an older shy cat. But after meeting Chardone for a pre-visit I was put at ease, she is really friendly, professional and genuinely cares, and Sylvester warmed up to her, which was lovely to see. Chardone Made sure I was kept up-to-date and sent lots of pictures which was great. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again. Thank you very much xx”

“Selda visited once a day to feed my one-year-old cat, Mabel, while I was away over Christmas, and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. From our first meeting when I handed over the house key, I was completely confident that Mabel was in safe and caring hands. While I was away, Selda sent regular photos and videos, and it was lovely to see how relaxed and happy Mabel was in her company. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Selda and will definitely be using her again. Thank you 🤗”

About: While I’ve spent a lot of time caring for cats, my love for dogs is just as strong—and I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments through sitting for friends, family, and neighbours over the years. From playful puppies to older dogs who need a slower pace, I’ve cared for them all. I understand how important consistency, calm energy, and clear communication are when it comes to looking after dogs—especially when they’re adjusting to someone new. Whether it’s sticking to a regular feeding routine, administering oral medication, or making sure they get enough exercise and attention, I’m dedicated to giving every dog the personalised care they deserve and acknowledging when your pet requires nurturing, affection and play time. I’m confident with walking, feeding, basic grooming (like brushing and wiping muddy paws!), and giving your dog the companionship they need while you’re away. I also make sure to learn each dog’s individual personality and preferences—some love long walks, others prefer cuddles and quiet time—and I adjust my care accordingly. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, it’s always been a dream of mine—so caring for yours is truly meaningful to me. I’ll treat them like part of the family, ensuring they’re safe, comfortable, and most importantly, happy! I currently have a commitment which durates to just 3 hours a day, Monday to Friday (3 PM – 6 PM), which leaves me with plenty of time and energy to care for your furry family members! 🐾 I’m available and flexible every day—including weekends and bank holidays—and I’m more than happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need early morning check-ins, midday walks, evening cuddles, full-day care or even overnight stays, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s comfort and routine come first, and I’m here to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both the family and your pet. At home, I have one very spoiled Ragdoll cat who even has his own house attached to ours! While he’s a house cat, we’ve created a safe, secure outdoor space so he can explore freely. He’s treated like royalty—endless cuddles, enrichment, and affection—and I bring that same level of care and compassion to every pet I look after. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’ve always dreamed of having one. So caring for your baby will genuinely fill a little hole in my heart 💛 Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the garden, or just a comfy cuddle session, I’m ready to give your pet the same love and care I give my own. Although I understand that every pet is different, I acknowledge their individual needs and always provide the best possible care for them. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, senior, or needs medication or special attention—I adapt to their personality and routine to ensure they feel completely safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away.
About: I I’ve got over 8 years of hands-on dog-sitting experience and have grown up around pets all my life. At home, I care for my two dogs, Cookie and Lola, and my two cats, Marvel and Zeus, so I’m very used to different personalities, routines, and little quirks. I also help out with my mum’s doggy day care, looking after a wide range of dogs, many of them are now long-term regulars who I’ve really grown attached to over time. It’s such a lovely feeling seeing familiar faces come back, and I’ve honestly fallen a bit in love with quite a few of them! This experience has helped me feel confident handling different temperaments and making sure each dog feels safe, settled, and genuinely cared for. I truly love what I do and always want every pet to feel like they’re in a calm, happy, and caring home. I work full time Monday to Friday, but I’m available in the evenings as well as full weekends and overnight care. I can offer a range of services including walks, feeding, playtime, sitting, and keeping your pet company. Due to living at home with other pets and family members, I currently offer pet care in the owner’s home. I’m always respectful of your space and will make sure to follow any house rules, routines, or specific instructions you have for your pet.
About: Hello!

I can travel anywhere around London and Hertfordshire so travel isn’t a problem to drop in It’s imperative that each pet is cared for in a way that suits them; safety measures include having removal of anything toxic and life threatening, keeping the main areas of the house clear of toys pets may have used and making sure everywhere is to a high level of standards for cleanliness.

About: I have always had a genuine love for animals, especially dogs and cats. I am a proud owner of two wonderful dogs, Toffee and Oreo, who are a huge part of my family and have given me plenty of hands-on experience in caring for pets. I understand the importance of providing animals with love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment where they feel comfortable and happy. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I regularly look after my neighbour’s cat whenever they are away, ensuring they are well-fed, comfortable, and given plenty of affection. My passion for caring for animals comes naturally, and I am confident in building trust with pets of different personalities and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in giving every dog and cat the same level of care and attention that I give to my own pets. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to do what I love and spend time with dogs and cats! I am very flexible and reliable! I have a fenced garden and a very friendly dog! Your pet will be very safe with me I am very reliable and caring! When your animal is with me you can safely relax !
“Alicia looked after our pet for four days while we were away... feeding, walking and interacting with him including lots of cuddles which is his favourite. She has a very kind, calm and caring nature which made it easy for us to trust her with our dog and our house while away. From the moment we met her at the meet and greet we could see that she really cares about animals. We received an update with photos daily during each visit and that really helped us to enjoy our holiday without worrying about our baby at home. I can highly recommend Alicia without a doubt. Thank you Alicia 🤩👌🏻”
About: Experience with young and old dogs with varying needs. Having owned dogs my whole life, I am well equipped to cater to their important needs AND their love and attention. I frequently look after my Nana’s dog and I have my own (very needy!) Basset Hound. I work as a writer, so flexibility is my middle name! I can work from anywhere and love taking breaks by walking in nature, which makes taking a fluffy companion with me a treat. I am confident and responsible, I am happy to cater to the exact needs of your pet. From pets which need lots of help and attention, to pets who just need company in the house!
“Having a dog really is like having a child and it is so important to have someone that you can trust to look after your loved one. I am so pleased to have found Nina. Louie absolutely adores her, she is so good with him, which means that I am worry free. Thanks for all that you do Nina x”

Siobhan was absolutely fantastic looking after my two cats while I was away on a couple of trips. She came over beforehand to meet them and immediately came across as professional, friendly, and trustworthy, which gave me complete confidence in leaving both my home and my cats in her care. She stuck to their normal feeding routines, watered my plants, and kept me updated throughout with WhatsApp photos and videos, which was really reassuring. What impressed me most was that one of my cats is incredibly shy and, over the five days Siobhan looked after them, she managed to get her eating from her hand. In the six years I've had her, that's never happened before to anyone apart from me! It was a pleasure having Siobhan look after my cats, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. I'll definitely be using her again in the future whenever I need someone to care for them. Thank you again, Siobhan!
Suse is absolutely lovely and I can't recommend her enough. Both of my cats can be quite timid, but they both adore her (one very much in their own way 😂). The updates are fantastic, with loads of great photos, and I was able to properly relax and enjoy my holiday instead of constantly checking the cameras at home! This was my second time Suse has looked after my cats and I have zero regrets. In fact, I've already booked her for my upcoming trips as well. Knowing my cats are happy and well looked after makes all the difference.
Selda visited once a day to feed my one-year-old cat, Mabel, while I was away over Christmas, and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. From our first meeting when I handed over the house key, I was completely confident that Mabel was in safe and caring hands. While I was away, Selda sent regular photos and videos, and it was lovely to see how relaxed and happy Mabel was in her company. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Selda and will definitely be using her again. Thank you 🤗

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Broxbourne on Rover is £13.8 per Visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 7,343 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Broxbourne. About 90% of Broxbourne sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
