“It was so good to know our dog Angel was with a brilliant sitter. U could see he loves dogs and looks after them.. i would like to book Peter S again. Many thanks for helping us so we could spend time in Derbyshire with my family, Excellent sitter.”


“I love my dogs, my dogs love Mandy and Mandy loves my dogs. Perfect relationship! Mandy is professional, kind and a great dog host. Lily and Isla literally run up to her door!”


“Such a kind and welcoming lady! Sent regular updates of my 2 doggies throughout the day so I could see how calm they were and how much fun they were having. Will definitely use Wan Jeong again!”


“Katie is calm, confident with dogs and reassuring. I will be using Katie again. Mabel clearly had a great day with Katie and her dogs, this being her first time away from staying with anyone within our family. Communication was great and we received some lovely videos. Mabel ran back to Katie when we collected her, which she never does! I would recommend.”


“Pumpkin our 4 year old cocker spaniel had a good time at Dean's while we were away. Dean picked him up from a friends each morning and left him there each evening to sleep. Pumpkin seemed calm and happy when dropped off at our friends at the end of each day and also very happy to go to Deans's house during the day. I will definitely ask Dean again to look after Pumpkin if needed.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, and I think they play a big role in my life so I would be so happy to be able to take care of someone else’s where needed. I have had plenty of experience looking after dogs and will look after them as if they are my own. I am currently working a full-time job, but work from home and have the weekends free! I would be available mostly weekends as well as occasionally during the week. The safety, comfort and happiness of your pet are my top priorities. I will provide a calm, pet-friendly and caring environment with secure indoor and outdoor spaces to ensure your pet is safe at all times. I like to take my time to understand their unique personalities so that your pet will feel comfortable and relaxed in my care. I will not leave pers unsupervised and will do my best to provide a clean, cozy space where pets can rest and feel at home.

About: Hi & Thanks for viewing my profile. ☺️ I’m Sangeeta (G as in Guitar). I’m a full-time creative who works from home in Canterbury and I absolutely adore animals. Prior to lockdown, for many years I lived and worked in New York City, transferring back to be close to family in London to during the pandemic. I’ve had three dogs & three cats since childhood, learning a lot from a very young age to become a very experienced talker, walker, carer & trainer of both cats & dogs. I’m very intuitive and appreciate first-hand each pet/s unique personality and traits. I take great care to make sure they feel safe, comfortable and at home with me; making space so they can spread out as well as snuggle up close beside me. Typically, care includes, feeding, walking, bathing and giving medication, as well as extra snacks and dedicated playtime. For clarity, my recent absence was sadly due to the loss of my beautiful little songwriting partner and Boycat Kai a few months ago. He was Maine Coon rescue, who climbed into my arms at just 8 months old and flew 1st class with me from Manhattan back to the UK. I’m grateful we lived a wonderful life travelling the world together, making music and mischief until his peaceful transition last December, as I held him in the very same embrace, 17 years on. I’m not yet ready for another furbaby of my own, but caring for animals and having them around brings me so much joy and peace, I’m ready now to accept new clients and bookings. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to arrange a meet and greet. I sincerely welcome the opportunity to meet you and perhaps for your pet/s to stay as my guest. 🙏🏽 I look forward to hearing from you and wish you well in the meanwhile. Thanks. Sangeeta ⭐️ I work from home and have a lot of flexibility. Depending on what you need I'm sure we can make it work. I’m always open to a meet and greet so that our pets have socialised and become comfortable before they come to stay. Your pet will most likely be my only fur guest during their stay; therefore have free rein and my full attention. ☺️ I’m very vigilant - animal safety comes first. If you do wish to leave your dog or cat with me, know that I have a fenced garden and live in a bungalow with plenty of space for safety, comfort and quiet. Our schedule during their stay, is organised around their comfort and well-being as the priority. I love sharing updates and happy moments, so you’ll have plenty of photos and videos each day and throughout their stay, or as you prefer.

“Lucinda was fabulous and Ottie had a lovely day with her. Lucinda was very flexible and helpful and Ottie had wonderful walks and a playmate for the day. Would highly recommend Lucinda. Your dogs will be well looked after and happy!”


About: Hey! I’m Alisha, a fully qualified animal carer with an AAA* diploma in Animal Management and a First-Class degree in Conservation Biology. Caring for animals isn’t just something I love, it’s something I’ve dedicated my life to. I’ve worked in doggy daycares, groomers, and cared for dogs of every kind, tiny pups, golden oldies, and everything in between. I joined Rover because I’ve got spare time, a massive love for animals, and I’d love for my dog Ted (who’s super friendly!) to have a few new buddies. I treat every dog like they’re my own, whether we’re cuddled up at home or out exploring. And when it comes to walks? You’re in for a treat. My location means I can take your dog on riverside strolls, woodland trails, seaside splashes, open grassland zoomies, or even chilled city walks. Whatever your dog loves, I’ll tailor the day to them. I’m calm, reliable, experienced, and genuinely obsessed with making sure your pet feels safe, stimulated, and loved. With me, they’re not just looked after, they’re part of the adventure, and part of a family. I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve, whether that’s house sitting, day visits, or fun outdoor adventures. I love spending time in nature, so if your dog enjoys the great outdoors, they can join me for peaceful walks by the river, woodland explorations, and everything in between. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to tailor each day to your pet’s needs and energy levels. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure a comfortable and stimulating environment. They will have access to spacious areas and cozy resting spots, along with plenty of toys and mental stimulation. Regular exercise, interactive playtime, and consistent feeding schedules are essential components of their care. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I prioritize their routine and familiarity. I maintain their feeding schedule, provide daily exercise, and engage in interactive play sessions tailored to their preferences. I also ensure their surroundings are clean and secure, while providing ample love, attention, and companionship. Both in-home and owner’s home care services involve regular communication with pet owners to provide updates on their furry friends’ well-being and any special requirements they may have. I am committed to creating a safe, happy, and nurturing environment for every pet under my care.

“Our dog really loved being with Olga. We had to find a sitter last minute and she responded so quickly and was so reassuring about leaving our dog with her. Very grateful for the time she gave us”

I understand how important that is and I am more than happy to sit down and work through the guidelines that you need for your dog. I work around my dog walking schedule. Hence, it is important that we communicate well for further services. I am fairly flexible with my time, and I allow plenty of time in between bookings. I have a fenced yard for those dogs that are used to staying outside or just need a run. I am also happy to keep dogs in our living room and communal area. If needed, I can also come to your house and stay with the dog there.

About: I have grown up with dogs and always kept dogs as pets my whole adult life. I could not be with out them. From caring for my own to helping out family and friends with their pets. I have also been walking dogs for busy people for the last two years. It is my perfect job. I do work part time, Monday to friday, walking dogs in the morning so I have lots more time to care and walk for other dogs. As much as I enjoy walking the dogs I love the exercise myself, I am always keen to walk. My garden has a fence one side, a wall the other so is very safe. My 2 dogs have access all day and night to the garden if they need it. I would walk any dogs staying, including my own twice a day. I'm also flexible to dog sleeping arrangements to make them feel as safe as possible in a new environment.

About: I have had pets my entire life and currently have 1 fur baby (Lulu) who I adore. I am have also always had cats although I don’t currently have one, I am more than happy to look after yours. I am happy to feed, play and clean litter trays if you have indoor cats. My own dog Lulu is 19 months old and would love another dog to tag along on our beautiful walks. Having just come through her puppy stage I feel very confident looking after puppies under 1. I am also happy and willing to give dogs baths and a blow dry if needed after any muddy walks if cleared by you first :-) I work from home full time with breaks throughout the day which I use to take my own puppy out for lovely walks. I live very close to some amazing parks and green spacea so these are the places I will be taking any dogs for walks during their time with me. If for any reason you wouldn’t be happy with this, please let me know. I will always look after and care for your pets in the way you want me to. Safety is my number 1 priority. Any walks will be strictly on lead / harness unless advised otherwise. I am close to beautiful open spaces for play and walks.

My cat will be isolated upstairs so don’t worry about two cats fighting 😂 I currently have a full time work. So I’ll be available before 9am and after 5pm. So don’t hesitate to book 2 visit a day!
