About: I've taken care of my own dog since I was 11. Friends, families, and neighbours have relied on me to take care of theirs too. I have currently finished my A-Levels, so have a long summer ahead! I work on Saturdays so that is the only day that is unavailable. I have a fenced garden and I am surrounded by fields and forests, which loads of the neighbourhood dogs and other animals love to enjoy.
“Thanks for looking after my cat while I was away. Loved the photo updates and to see you playing with her. Thanks for being on time with the visits and coming to meet Roxy before looking after her.”

About: I provide reliable pet care with love and attention, treating every pet as if they were my own. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions who need a little extra patience and support. I focus on each pet's individual needs and routine. I take the time to understand their personality, preferences and any special requirements, so they feel safe, comfortable and happy while you're away. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos, so you always know your pet is in safe hands. Caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I enjoy building my routine around their needs, making sure they feel comfortable, safe and well looked after. I create a safe, loving environment in my home with regular walks, play and care, including fenced garden and 2 friendly dogs for company. I follow routines to ensure comfort and stability and can crate your dog it it's their safe space.

About: I have grown up with dogs and our wedding present from dad was a beautiful black lab. Family all love dogs and the open countryside. We have one dopey old lady lab who is shy but caring. Fully insured and will provide lots of fun, exercise and petting for your best friends. I have recently retired early so have plenty of time to walk and play with your dogs. I can brush throw sticks and just have fun with them. I occasionally go to the beach with my lab and they would be welcome to join in the splashing. Rest also good in our sunny fenced garden I have a large fenced garden overlooking quiet countryside. I can cage if they/you like for rest otherwise the ground floor home is all theirs to share.
About: Hello! I am a passionate animal lover, recently finished a 4 year Zoology degree at NTU Brackenhurst, also with a Level 3 diploma in Animal management, so I will ensure to apply academic and practical knowledge to caring for your pets. I have worked at an animal rescue, caring for a wide range of different dog breeds (large and small), cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and a pig! I will meet the needs of both you and your pets, and be sure to keep in as much contact as wished by owner. Also working as a dog sitter/walker for a private owner, since 2019, which gave me many practical skills I can apply to other dog sittings. Please get in touch, I look forward to meeting you and your lovely companions! As I have recently finished university I am unemployed so would love to get as many pet sits into my weekly schedule. As my availability varies with summer plans, my calendar is kept strictly up-to-date. I am highly flexible during my free days and can easily accommodate walks any time, drop-ins, and dedicated overnight housesitting. I will ensure your house is kept perfectly tidy and update you on details of the day. I am very reliable and respectful. I will always keep good hygiene standards around your pets, while keeping a close eye on them guaranteeing their safety and giving them plenty of love!
“I’ve got lots of updates and sometimes even the playful videos from Samira. She is very professional, attentive and does everything according to feeding instructions. She even helped us setup the feeders, even gave Mochi a new toy and cleaned the messes Mochi made sometimes 😅. We will definitely ask Samira again next time!”

“Kate is such a wonderful person. She is really kind and showed so much interest in our cat. She made sure he was fed, happy and had lots of water. She sent lovely pictures so we could see how he was getting on. She even tidied up when she left! Thank you Kate!!! We highly recommend”


About: I have had experience with both cats and dogs from a young age. I have had springer spaniels in the past who definitely kept me on my toes! I currently volunteer weekly for stray cat rescue, and also cats protection, and work part time as a support worker. I love walking and I adore animals and am very confident around all different dogs and cats ❤️❤️ I work part time as a support worker in co ordination with my partner to fit around childcare, so I'm very flexible! I just need to know at least a week in advance so I can plan in my diary as no two days are the same for me! I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets, so I will keep everything as normal as possible to fit around your usual schedule. Lots of playtime and love at the same time 🥰
“Isabella was friendly and accommodating. She took good care of our two fur babies whilst we were away for 2 nights. She gave us regular updates and kindly tidied up too. Would definitely recommend Isabella for her services.”


About: I am kind, patient and honest and I believe dogs can sense this. Dogs and cats trust me and I love to connect with them. I am lucky enough to have had dogs and cats my entire life. My current fur baby is Willow, aged 3! I have experience with puppies through to senior dogs. I will treat your dog as my own, helping them to thrive and feel safe in my company! I currently have full availability for the next few months. I can do dog walks, or drop in visits! I look forward to building a bond with your dog. I do not offer pet care in my own home however, I can provide care in your home. This can include drop in visits and casual pet sitting. I am DBS checked, and currently work as cabin crew so have enhanced security checks.
About: I've been living with dogs and cats for almost all my life and growing up with them taught me what a real best friend is. I became a volunteer in my country in a pet house and I took care of lots of homeless dogs and cats... between puppies and adults.. and the ones pregnant too! My house was their house.. that's why I ended up adopting 7 dogs and 10 cats... with one of my dog I attended lessons at the dogs education school where I improved my knowledge about their behaviour, their fears, how to behave with them, as well as how to teach them common commands like sit down, give me five, or lay down, stay, walk by my side etc.. Being a volunteer as well was helpful to get better with the different type of food depending on their size, age , hair or special needs, lots of different medicine, but especially spending time with them I realised how much they can give to us.. together we play, we sleep, we go to the beach or for a walk.. together we spend special time, and time is the most beautiful gift you can give. Since I moved to UK, I've been missing my pets each day.. I'd be grateful to spend time with yours.. you won't regret!
About: Hello there! I'm Liz, and dogs have been my heart and soul since I was little. There's never been a time in my life without a wagging tail nearby or paw prints on my clothes, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Alex, my partner in both life and now in pet sitting, grew up surrounded by four legged friends, just like me. He has that special touch that makes dogs feel instantly at ease. It's lovely to see how even the shyest pups warm up to those belly rubs. Between us, we've cared for everything from tiny Chihuahuas to gentle giants, including some wonderful rescue dogs who stole our hearts along the way. We're both experienced in caring for dogs with medical needs, having looked after pets requiring medication, special diets and post-surgery care. We understand that your furry family member isn't just a dog, they're your world. Whether your pooch fancies long rambles through the park, cosy cuddles on the sofa with a good fuss, or energetic games in the garden, we'll make sure they feel completely at home with us. Tea and treats for both humans and dogs are always on hand, and we promise to send you plenty of updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your beloved pet is having just as much fun as you are. Taking care of pets fits perfectly into our daily routines. We both enjoy flexible work-from-home setups, ensuring your dog receives plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Between us, there's always someone available for walks, playtime, or simply a warm lap for cuddles. We easily adapt to your pet's needs, whether in our home or yours. In our home, your dog will enjoy our spacious garden with plenty of exercise and attention. For pets more comfortable in familiar surroundings, we offer in-home care following your routines. Either way, we ensure your furry friend is safe and happy while you're away.
“We came home to a very happy cat who had been reliably fed, played with, and kept company while we were away. Jamie is a great sitter who takes care to make sure the animals he looks after are interacted with as well as having their basic needs met. This was really important to us at this time of year so that we wouldn't come home to any mess caused by a bored cat!! Thanks Jamie, we appreciate it.”

I am a huge pet lover and have grown up surrounded by animals in particular dogs and horses, so have plenty experience looking after and catering to your pets needs. In summer months we have a paddling pool, cool matts and homemade dog safe lolly’s offering many options help your pets stay cool. I will always ensure my time can be dedicated to looking after your pets when they are with me. The dogs are allowed on the sofa and we have a two beds for sleeping and toilet breaks can be as frequent as necessary. Mabel and I look forward to meeting you soon! 🐾 I am able to offer care Friday - Sunday, typically I will go for walks in the morning, during lunch and after work - but this adapts depending on the weather (if its too hot we will skip the lunch walk or find a cool sheltered forest to get a leg stretch). I can accommodate drop offs as early as 7:30am and pick ups as late as 7pm. Please do let me know if you require early / late drop off and pick up when booking and any additional requirements you should have.

Our dog Mabel loves having company from other dogs and is happy to share her toys or cuddle on the sofa together for a nap.
About: Ive mostly taken care of cats and kittens since I was 7 and had a husky, Guinea pig and gerbils throughout my childhood. Now in recent times, I have a family senior dog that I take on walks and a cat that loves going on walks too. I am currently working part time since I do have a cat of my own and will be mostly available any day of the week as long as I don’t have anything planned. In my home I have cat safe window netting which allows me to open windows wide without the worry of my cat jumping out and escaping, along with a variety of cat toys for enrichment and cat trees.
“Mel is our go-to person for drop-in visits for our kitty whenever we are out of town. She is reliable, friendly and well-organized, and we'd recommend her for your cat care needs.”

“Once again, absolutely perfect. We're very apologetic about the dead bird but the picture of Riff Raff with his catch was adorable; he looked so proud! Jessica will be our first choice for any more cat sitting.”

About: I’ve had a wide variety of experience with different pets from a very young age. I have owned and taken care of reptiles, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, dogs, cats etc. In the past few years I have become more relied on to dog sit, walk and do check ins for family and friends but have recently expanded out to dog walking and sitting for a owner local to my area each week. I currently have 3 dogs of my own. A jack russel, Chihuahua and a Labrador. My labrador is only 1 so the past year has been very focused on trying to train her. Please note I do not house my pets in my own property, they live with my parents. I currently work full time as an estate agent, on a 2 week flip rotation. I have 1 in every 2 Tuesdays off in place of working shorter hours on a Saturday. Weekdays I work 9-6 Saturdays I work 9-4:30. I can be flexible with pet sits around this☺️ I care for other people’s dogs in their homes fairly frequently. I have done many short stay sits and also longer ones as up to 14 days. I have always been able to accommodate whatever you and your pet needs from me while they’re in my care.
“Great Job, Agnieszka look after my Rottweiler dog with no problems what so ever. Im so greatful to her for looking after my big Bear Zeus. All i asked for feeding my dog and cleaning up the mess but she went beyond that, she fed it and also cleaned up all his plates and dishes as well as looked after him so well. Im so happy with her service and she knows how to take care of dog so big Thank you and will be calling u again soon.”

“Isabel is amazing, I would recommend her to anyone who loves their pet. We were fully confident when we left for a holiday abroad. We had daily updates and photos, I didn’t ask her to, but she took our dog out for walks and thoroughly spoilt him! She even cuddled the tortoises, they were not part of the contract! Now we are back I think Sparkey the dog misses her, she has spoilt him. House was secure and all instructions were adhered too. Thank you Isabel.”

Chloe was absolutely amazing with Petunia(my cat). Morning and evening for a week Chloe showed such care for Petunia not just feeding her but spending time with her. It was so lovely to have daily messages and pictures knowing Petunia was being loved and cared for. I would recommend Chloe to anyone going away and wanting the security of knowing someone will genuinely look after their cat or dog. Thank you Chloe.
Kate is such a wonderful person. She is really kind and showed so much interest in our cat. She made sure he was fed, happy and had lots of water. She sent lovely pictures so we could see how he was getting on. She even tidied up when she left! Thank you Kate!!! We highly recommend

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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Central Bedfordshire choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code.

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.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
