“Ecehan was so great with the dogs! She sent photos and videos, took them on walks and to the park. The whole time we felt so sure that they were being loved and taken care of! We will definitely reach out to book with her again.”
“Gemma and her dog Herbie were really lovely and I felt very relaxed to leave our dog Bonnie with them both. Communication was excellent and Gemma sent regular updates and videos/photos which was very thoughtful. I would definitely recommend and I hope Gemma is available next time we need someone to take care of Bonnie!”
“I felt really comfortable leaving Floki with Stephen and family, seemed like a home from home for Floki. He seemed to love it and got on well with their dog. I would be more than happy to ask Stephen to look after Floki again.”
“Max was an absolutely amazing host for our nervous dog. Him and his partner took great care of Thor and made us feel so comfortable and happy leaving him there overnight. They were really accommodating and gave lots of updates of him having a great time.”
“Sam & Harper were excellent! Oakley had a great time and was very well looked after. Very quick to respond to messages and kept me updated with pictures and videos of my little boy.”
“We needed Cooper looking after for my works Christmas do. Having only recently got Cooper it was our first time leaving him. Marcus and Cheryl made us feel instantly relaxed and welcomed Cooper straight into their home on the meet and greet. They put our minds at rest and were extremely flexible for us, making sure we had a good night and Cooper was looked after. We got regular photos and couldn't have asked for more. Really impressed and also very much appreciate it. Very highly recommend and only have good things to say!!”
“Larissa was great with our dog Mo. He was happy and well taken care of while we were away, and she sent regular updates during his stay. Would rebook again with Larissa in the future.”
“Sol was brilliant. I booked very last minute for a 7 night stay, and she was so welcoming and kind. My dog can be quite anxious in new places, but Sol handled it patiently and kept me updated throughout. He seemed so relaxed and happy when I picked him up, and it was clear he’d been well cared for. I thank you so so much! We were at ease leaving him with her :)”
“Right from the meet and greet session, and throughout Willow's stay with Nova, she made us feel at ease, continuously reassuring her of Willow's wellbeing and status on food, walks, cuddles through messages and photos. She patiently took time to understand Willow's personality, preferences, medications and schedule. It was amazing to see Willow settle in so easily with Nova and her partner in just under a day. Highly recommend Nova to even nervous fur parents.”
About: I love dogs and cats - I grew up with my family's dogs. I have looked after other people's puppies, dogs and cats, including rescues. I am a Cambridge graduate working in healthcare research. I am careful, friendly and reliable. I work part time, I'm free on Wednesdays. I work from home two days a week (usually Mondays and Fridays) so am available to pet sit any of those days. I live close to a park and have a car so can travel as needed. I have a fenced garden, lockable cat flap and live on a quiet road. I am careful and considerate visiting pets in their own home (I am clean, careful with locking doors, etc.)
“Anne was great with my 16 month old lab. Her place is a dog heaven with her own dogs and regular guests plus huge space to run around. She was super relaxed and Kash was so tired and looked happy when we collected him. Definitely would be using her services again. Highly recommend.”
“Jacob was amazing. He was super responsive and gave regular updates including photos and videos! Bailey clearly loved being with him and he took her for long walks and gave her lots of cuddles which she loves! It really felt like he treated her like his own whilst we were on holiday which I really appreciated! He seemed super flexible and I would 100% recommend Jacob for looking after your pup!”
“Dora has looked after Nala a few times and Nala has been very happy in her company. Nala isn’t the easiest dog and Dora cares for her as if she was her own. Would highly recommend Dora!”
“Couldn't have asked for a better experience, Nadin kept us updated and sent lots of pictures and videos. She is very knowledgeable and always thinking of things to make them comfortable/ happy including putting dog music on when there were loud winds to settle them. They looked like they had lots of fun and we would be very happy to use Nadin for all our boarding needs.”
“Justyna took wonderful care of our cat, Twix. I could tell from first meeting her that she is very much an animal lover and felt happy leaving my fur baby with her. Justyna was fantastic about sending us photos and videos every day and we could see that Twix was settling in well despite being a very shy cat. I will have no hesitation asking Justyna to care of Twix again.”
“Thank you Teresa for looking after Bess so well again and having her stay for her first night with you. ❤️ it was so great to have the photos come through and to know she was in safe hands. Thank you.”
“Kinga looked boarded our energetic spaniel for multiple days, and her greyhound proved to be a great companion and play partner. We received multiple photos and videos a day updating us on his adventures. Our dog clearly had a great time and was sad to leave!”

Liz was absolutely fantastic during our golden retriever staycation, she played with her and was very accommodating with our own schedule which we really appreciated!! She was also super good sending us regular updates of her and daily pictures of her play and naps so we felt at ease during our whole holiday 🫶 we will definitely book her again! Thanks a million Liz🐾
Shitong and Momo are superb borders, just shy of being a a full on puppy all-inclusive resort and spa. They pampered our little Pixie with loads of attention, exercise and catered meals. We had steady updates to calm any of our worries, and our puppy got the chance to befriend their two cats (who are adorable). We will definitely be booking with Shitong in the future.
Tahiana was great with our dog Raya. She was willing to meet for a walk a few weeks before Raya's overnight stay, which meant when we dropped Raya off she recognised Tahiana and was exited to see her. Tahiana sent photos and video updates of Raya during her stay, and I have no doubts Raya was well looked after. Will definitely use Tahiana again!
Hannah and Aaron looked after my dog for a week and I couldn’t recommend them more! As soon as I met them and Nalu, I knew Pierre was in safe hands and he had a blast. I was kept updated with photos and they took such good care of him; above and beyond! Nalu is so sweet. Very friendly household, and I would not hesitate to have them look after him again 🐶🤍
Ralf has been looking after Hettie for the last 8 days, and we couldn't be happier. This is the longest we have left her, but she settled easily and was eating as normal which tells us she was not stressed in anyway. Thanks Ralf, for the regular updates and pictures, and we look forward to seeing you again soon!
Sol was absolutely fantastic taking care of our miniature labradoodle! Good communication in advance; happy to meet Duffy before the planned stay; had clearly carefully thought out how she would arrange his stay; clearly knows dogs well; very friendly. Can’t fault a thing and would definitely use her services again. 5 🌟
Nova is a fantastic sitter. She arranged a meet up before we made the booking, so we could be sure that everyone was happy to go ahead. Beanie loved his time with her and she provided plenty of pictures from their adventures. Drop off and pick up is also very convenient as there is a bus stop 2 minutes away, which goes directly to the train station if you happen to be going to the airport. We will definitely be checking Nova's availability next time we need a sitter. 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
We had a great experience with James. He was really prompt and helpful with communication, and kept us updated throughout our dog’s stay with regular photos, which was really reassuring. Our dog settled in really well and seemed very happy and comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and would definitely use him again!
Ping (May) was so good with Robbie, going far and beyond anything to look after him for two nights while we were away. She sent regular updates too which was lovely. It is clear that she has a natural bond with dogs. Robbie was so calm and content when we collected him. Highly recommend.
Viv was amazing, she looked after Peppa and Farusca ( dog and cat) so well, it was the first time leaving our family pets without a familiar face and we had an unexpected situation with Peppa but Viv handled it perfectly, she kept us informed liaised with us when something was needed, we received pictures/ videos. On returning home both pets were happy and relaxed, it just felt they were home. Viv meet us prior to the booking day , we went through the routines, she was just amazing. Will definitely contact her again if needed.
Maria is a well informed, caring and extremely reliable person. She boarded Arlo (a 4-year-old cockapoo) for almost a month when we were away for our summer holiday. We met a few people off Rover before coming across Maria and the questions we were asked didn’t fill us with confidence as some of them were basic dog care ones, which would have been known by pet owners/carers. When we met Maria, her expertise was evident and, instantly, we felt confident to leave our dog with her. Our dog was well exercised and loved throughout his stay. We would be more than happy to leave our dog with her again. Thank you very much for taking a great care of Arlo. We had an amazing holiday thanks to you & knowing that he was well looked after in our absence.

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.
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 .

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
