“Robyn has been amazing from start to finish - she met my friend who was passing her the keys a day early to meet Frankie for a smooth handover. She sent me photos every day and gave him loads of cuddles, and spent a bit of extra time with him when she had spare time one day. Honestly, 10/10 recommend. My friend who passed her the keys also said how lovely Robyn is in person too ♥️ Thank you for everything 🥰”


About: With years or experience caring (and loving on) a range of animals, I treat every animal like my own- belly rubs, treats, and all. Whether it's playtime, walkies, cuddles or just some good company, I'm here to keep tails wagging and whiskers twitching while you are away. Currently teaching part-time. I am available end of week and weekends to help you enjoy your well earned time off, and allowing me to get outdoors and spend time with the best furry friends. I have a spacious flat that has easy access garden and nature walks, not too close to busy traffic areas. Your fur baby can have any space required, including own room if necessary.

“Machair is quite an anxious dog and after his meet and greet with Madeleine he was absolutely fine. She was very calm with him and they were soon best friends. She came in and fed him and took him a wee walk and everything was fine when I returned home. I would definitely use Madeleine again.”


About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for years. I will follow their routine and follow your instructions. I love cuddles, walkies, and playtime. I'm a very caring person and responsible. I send photo updates on every visit. I'm currently self-employed working from home so I have lots of room in my schedule for bookings whether they are made in advance or booked last minute. I care for pets in the pets home. I listen to clear instructions from owners and will do everything that is needed to ensure that your pet is given the best care possible.

“Michael visited our dogs twice as we would be out all day. He fed walked and played with them during his visits. He kept us up yo date with text and photos. We would not hesitate to recommend Michael to anyone looking for the services he provides.”


“I highly recommend Ebony to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to come to your home and care for your precious pets. Ebony is a very warm and friendly person. My dogs just loved her. I’ll definitely be using her services again.”


About: Fully Licensed & Insured I have previously had the pleasure of owning Rudi, a 'rescue dog' and have watched him grow and develop into a super pet. My cat Bruce, would occasionally accompany us in the evening, for a walk to the waterfront, where we watch the waves splash against the shore. I have also cared for other peoples pets over the years, boarding them at home in my semi-detached house, with secure front and back gardens, in a quiet cul-de-sac. The village is in a beautiful location which is perfect for dog adventures - be that walking up into the hills, playing frisbee or fetch, swimming in the river, racing through the forests, or splashing through the waves on the beach. There is never a dull moment and I have as much fun as the dogs! I am a full time pet carer, offering overnight and day boarding, walking and wedding day pet care. I can care for holiday-makers dogs should they fancy a day visit or water based trip to which they cannot take their pet. Other requests always considered such as toilet breaks or cat feeding...just ask! I have a fully enclosed garden in a quiet cul de sac. My dog-guests live in the house as if they were my own. In the summer we relax in the garden and in the winter we curl up in front of the log burner. Whilst staying with me, each pet will wear one of my tags on their collar, which has my phone number on and dogs will only be let off lead if I have the owners permission.

About: I am a 30 year old woman with a 4 year old Siberian husky and a 2 year old tabby cat. I am an animal lover and like being outside come rain or shine so be assured your pets will have the best walks or cuddles asked for. I have been brought up around animals my entire life with both sisters having 2 dogs each and my parents having a family dog whilst growing up. I do work full time as a teacher but I have various holidays throughout the year where I am able to walk or have your animal overnight if you are away. Walking your dog or cuddling your cat is at the highest priority. I am very trust worthy when entering your home. I will send details of my visit and pictures of your pet being looked after and attended to.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, labradors, then was lucky enough to foster a miniature sausage dog x Jack Russell for a year, she was my everything, but unfortunately couldn’t keep her as she needed an older home with less activity (she hated walks, people and being left alone 😂) but she has left a huge hole in my life and my heart. I’ll get another dog again one day at the moment though I’d love to just spend time with other peoples pets, I know how difficult it is to find someone you can trust to leave your dog, but I promise to treat them as if they were my own! I work for myself, part-time so can be flexible with my time and give a dog as much company as they need, and can flex around times/days to suit you. Happy to have dogs over night, follow your rules, and take them for walks or just give them the exercise etc in the garden. I’ve got a 3 story house, and happy for pets to be on furniture. I have a fenced garden with zero access from outside so they would have the space to run, play and snooze too!

“Janine was lovely and would highly recommend. You can tell she has years of caring for dogs in lots of different capacity from walking, training and home stays. We're going to book her again very soon. Thanks so much Janine.”


About: I have a passion for all animals and I have decided to follow my passion and help look after your furry friends. Animals have been an important part of my life for as long as I can remember. When you trust me with your pets, I will treat them like my own, like family. I currently work part time, as a support worker, and the rest of my time I look after animals. I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate last minute bookings. When looking after your pet in your own home, your pet will be more comfortable than in a strange, different environment. I will treat your home with respect and ensure everything is how you left it.

About: I’ve always looked after dog and enjoyed it. As I work shifts I can’t get my own so I want to look after other people’s. I work shifts with the Nhs and will only look after dogs when I am off on a/l or have a good run of days off will never watch a dog if I’m working. Just myself and son in house he’s 16. I have a back garden with a fence and gate. Will always supervise pets when outside. Will care for dog to the standard of owner and will treat them well.

About: I grew up around dogs all my life. I have lived with and cared for all different breeds, sizes and ages and have loved every minute. I currently have a 5 year old boxer named Jaffar, who is the perfect measure of a gentle giant and a friendly playmate. Jaffar is great around all dogs, he has shared his home with many and we have never had an issue. Jaffar will welcome any canine companions in to share his toys, sofa and bed (he hasn’t figured out the bed is to sleep in but he does use it as a pillow). While your pet is having its sleep over it will have full access to all rooms and furniture in the house as well as the back garden. If you have certain requirements for your pup during their or stay then I will actively seek to meet these to make this a home away from home. I can fit pet care in to my routine with as little or as much notice as possible. I have a flexible schedule at work and tend to put my dog first and fit my work around that. I can be flexible on taking care of someone’s pet either at my home or theirs. I would just like their pet to feel as at home as possible. I have a back garden with astroturf so this can be accessed in all weathers and various walking routes on my doorstep.

About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, and I currently have a 5 year old black Lab and a one year old patterdale terrier, and 2 cats.

I’m happy to use whatever safety measures pet owners have in place to keep them safe

I’m not ready to have another dog of my own but would love to be able to look after others. I live a 3 minute walk from a lovely park. I love the companionship of dogs. I am currently between jobs and have lots of free time to give your precious fur babies. I am just home from working away for a year and free most days and nights. I have a fenced garden and live a 3 minute walk from a lovely park. Although living in a flat there are other dogs in the same close with a lovely big garden

Siobhan W.
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Siobhan. She looked after both my dog and cat with such genuine care and attention—it gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Communication was excellent throughout; she kept me updated and was always responsive. I came home to two very happy, relaxed pets who had clearly been loved and well cared for. I'm so grateful to have found her and would book her again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend!”

Thomas D.
“Tom has looked after my two dogs on numerous occasions. They always have a wonderful holiday and Tom keeps me updated with their adventures! I always trust him to look after them and he does an excellent job - even when he has to make room in his freezer for their raw food diet!”


Lucy P.
“I’ve known Lucy for almost 8 years now. Lucy is great with animals, her sister has two dash hounds that she’s always in walking for her sister as she works late being a nurse, her mum has a dog that she takes on regular walks with her own very well trained husky. I Think Lucy would be a great responsible pet caregiver. Lucy is a very outdoorsy person so to be able to take other dogs along on the trip would not only benefit the pets but the owners too. To summarise I think Lucy would be a great addition to the Rover community.”

Abbie M.
“Abbie is a dog lover through and through. She has been involved with dogs since she was 9 years old when she got her her first bichon Frise. She was very hands on when her dog went on to have a litter of 6 pups, all planned, born and cared for at home. When her mum opened up her grooming salon Abbie was hands on involved with all elements of pre cutting treatments. A natural dog lover who enjoys long walks on nature trails and beaches. Would highly recommend!”
