“Justina has a lovely, calm energy that both of our beagles responded to immediately. Our rescue dog can be unpredictable at times, but she warmed to Justina straight away. Justina was punctual, confident, polite, and very responsive - keeping us updated throughout her stay and sending photos. Will definitely book her again.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better furbaby sitter. We went away for 7 nights and we got daily updates on our dog and cat. She was extremely kind and Caring and put us at ease leaving them. They were extremely comfortable with her. She also looked after the house so well. Thank you so much we will definitely be using her again! ?”

“Anuja was so responsive and absolutely wonderful with my dog, Romeo. She kept me updated, was caring and attentive, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Romeo was happy and well looked after, which means everything to me. I would highly recommend Anuja and will definitely be booking her again.”

About: I've cared for friends' cats and dogs for years and they keep coming back because they know their pets are in safe, reliable hands. I owned dogs and cats back in Romania. Currently I live with my flatmate's cat, who I look after daily, so I'm hands on with both species regularly. Friends tell me their pets are happy, energetic and look cared for after I hand them over, which means the world to me. I'm calm, attentive and genuinely love spending time with pets and they sense it too. I send regular photo and video updates so you can travel knowing exactly how your pet is doing and I stick closely to their routines and any specific instructions you leave. Based in West London and happy to meet beforehand so you and your pet are comfortable. I am working from home and my schedule is flexible so can tailor my day around your pet's needs, whether that's morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times or extra playtime. I'm available throughout the day to respond quickly if anything comes up, and I'm happy to adjust my routine to match your pet's usual rhythm so they feel settled and comfortable while you are away. I usually look after pets in their owner's home which keeps them relaxed in familiar surroundings. Because I work from home, I bring my laptop with me and can stay around the pet for most of the day rather than just dropping in. I always follow the owner's instructions carefully on feeding, walks and routines, keep the home secure, and send regular photo and video updates so you know your pet is safe and happy. I'm calm, gentle and attentive to any signs that a pet might be unwell or anxious.
“Lola was fantastic! She really understands senior dogs and informed me about how everything have gone, sharing useful tips and experiences. She is polite, reliable, and very thoughtful, and we would be very happy to welcome her back into our home again soon!”

“I was very happy with Laura, she took very good care of my anxious cat, giving me updates and reassurance. I came back to a happy and calm kitty. She also took good care of my apartment and left immaculate. I'll definitely book her again.”

“Allison is amazing! Hemingway loved her. She sent me photo updates while I was out which was such a nice touch. Will most definitely be using her again next time I need a sitter. Thanks, Allison :)”

“Dolo was wonderful watching our high energy dog Willow! She was so helpful throughout, gave tons of great updates, and we could tell our dog was really happy to have her! She's also just a great person and lovely to be around. We would highly recommend Dolo!”


“Zoë was fantastic with our cats! She followed their routine and they enjoyed their time with her, it was nice to go on holiday and know they were very well looked after! Both cats took to her very well and even came to say goodbye before she left. I would highly recommend Zoë and we will definitely use her again! Thank you Zoë, from all of us!”

About: I grew up with dogs starting from the age of nine. In Korea, I was raised with three dogs, but after moving to London, I was no longer able to keep one. I am confident in all aspects of dog care, including walking, feeding, and bathing. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs up to 18 years old. My husband is a PhD student who works from home, and I am free after 5 p.m. on weekdays and fully free on weekends, so there is always someone at home to provide 24-hour care for the pet We live in an apartment with a concierge at the reception, so there is no concern about losing a dog. There is also a river and a park just a five-minute walk away, which makes it very convenient for walks.
“Lisa was so lovely, Odie enjoyed staying with her! He got cuddles and walks and he loved Lisa. She sent us a lot of photos and we definitely want Lisa to be Odie’s dog sitter on a permanent basis 😌”


“Yi was wonderful! She was responsive to queries, happy to come meet the animals, and loved them immediately. Our two cats and two dogs were very happy and very well taken care of by Yi and we will certainly request her on our next holiday!”

“This was the first time Lisa looked after our two dogs. She came over for a ‘meet and greet’ beforehand and communicated with us while we were away. We came home to a very clean and tidy home and two happy dogs. Would definitely recommend Lisa.”

“Lili was great. She is punctual and very communicative, she followed the schedule Eddie is used to in order to ensure he would feel comfortable with her. I also enjoyed seeing pictures of Eddie whilst I was away, made me feel very comfortable about having left him with her. Big plus is that Lili was also extremely tidy in the flat, but most importantly I could really see that Eddie enjoyed his time with her.”

“Claudia took such good care of Pebbles so we could go to the theatre and dinner. She instantly gave a great impression and left me feeling so comfortable leaving our girl with her for the evening! Claudia was flexible in both starting and finishing time and sent messages throughout letting us know what they were up to. I would highly recommend and would definitely love for Claudia to take care of Pebbles again!”

About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, chickens and other farm animals since I was a child. I have been doing pet sitting jobs since I was a teenager, I absolutely love pets and I miss having a dog around. Here in London unfortunately I can't have a dog, so I think dog sitting would be awesome for me! At the moment I have some spare time everyday, why don't spend it with your pet? I am currently working from home so I can arrange walks and playtime in a flexible way! We will go on walks and will have plenty of play time and cuddles. Your pet won't ever be left alone, I'll always be around to check on them. I will crate your dog if necessary and make sure they stay happy and healthy. I will keep communicating with you and do everything possible to give you peace of mind while your pet is with me.
Chelsea pet owners share their Rover experiences
Nicholas did a brilliant job looking after Lenny. He was punctual, friendly and very responsive throughout, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that he genuinely cared about making sure Lenny was happy and well looked after. I would highly recommend Nicholas and would encourage anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter to get in touch with him.

Carla was so brilliant with our 4 month old cocker spaniel Rupert. She was so kind and calm and friendly - and very playful with him. As it was only our second time using Rover, we knew Rupert was in good hands! Definitely booking Carla again. Thank you so much Carla! 🐼🐾

Gabriela is an amazing sitter, I have completely trust the first time I’ve met her, she’s very warm and friendly, more importantly Mia approved straight away. I received daily updates and photos from Gabriela, Mia was well looked after and adores Gabriela, I could tell how comfortable and happy Mia was via the video clips and could hear her purring, such is a big relief when I was away. Gabriela also kept my flat tidy and clean, everything was very smooth and easy, I’m definitely going to ask Gabriela to help me with Mia again

Matthew was great with our little cockerpoo Otis whilst staying at our flat for the week. He met us at short notice and was very kind and willing with anything we asked him. He kept us up to date multiple times per day with pictures and videos and Otis was very comfortable with him. Thanks Matt!

Claudia was one of the best, most communicative sitters we have had since using Rover. She was open and friendly from the beginning, very astute and patient with her care of the dogs, and even left our home, clean for our arrival. She regularly sent us photos and updates, which kept us at ease throughout our time away. We can’t wait to meet and leverage Claudia‘s great skills again in the future!

Jess was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Responsive. Responsible. Communicative. Sent me lots of regular updates about Chilli, which was what I wanted. I felt very comfortable with her looking after Chilli and staying in my home and didn’t worry about Chilli at all whilst away which meant I could have a relaxing holiday. Would highly recommend her and will definitely be booking Jess again for my next holiday! I think Chilli is missing her this morning and disappointed to be stuck with me 😂
We’re so glad Jessica came to house sit our pup while we were away, our dog liked her so much that she was looking for her after we came home. Jessica is very nice, asked thorough questions about our dog’s care and routine, and regularly sent pics/video updates while we were away. Would definitely ask her to dog-sit again!
