“Shannon is so great. My dog enjoy his walk with her and is always happy and relaxed when I get home. She is reliable and great at communicating. I would not be without her!”
“Lily was great . She came and visited us before the walk so the dogs could meet her and on the day let me know how it went. Communication is excellent . You can see Lily loves animals and I’ve booked her again ! ?”
About: Dog owner since I was seven years old. My lurcher was an angel who had three legs the last few years of her life, used to life with elderly dogs. My second dog was a collie/cairn cross who could be a little devil so I know how to handle some moodiness. My grandmother had three Rottweilers when I was little so used to big dogs as well. Calm, kind environment at home with the certainty of walks up the Cotswold hills. I’m currently working zero hour so can be around as much as required. My father who loves dogs works from home so there is additional care there! :) Currently working ad hoc; family home. My Dad works from home, loves dogs, my Mum does too. 3 people for the price of 1 :) Green grassy garden; perfect area downstairs for night that our dogs always used to sleep in. Close to town. Everyone drives, estate car so big boot to travel for more rural walks.

About: Beth: I’ve had a family dog from when he was a puppy until he sadly passed away last year at the age of 16. He was a Westie, and I helped care for him throughout his life, especially during his senior years. Because of this, I understand the different needs of both young, energetic dogs and older dogs who require a little extra care and patience. George: used to have a family dog who was a Great Dane / Akita who was so loving, experience with dog dog breeds. Weve recently moved back from living in Sydney for a year, where we looked after a variety of dogs including Jack Russells and Goldendoodles. My experience included day care while owners were at work, dog walking during the day, and overnight stays while owners were away on holiday. We’re both very reliable, caring, and genuinely love being around dogs. After recently losing my own, spending time with dogs again means a lot to me. Pet sitting is a great way for me to enjoy the company of dogs while helping owners who need support with their pets, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Beth works fully remote (occasional office day a month) so I have plenty of availability during the week and some weekends. I have lots of time to walk, play with, and give attention to your furry friend! Between both of us there will always be someone around to help care for your dog! I work fully remote and love being active so I’m at home to keep your dog company and and play, I also love getting my steps in multiple times a day so can keep them entertained with walks! I have experience looking after my own dog and also my friends and family’s dog at their homes, taking out for walks and playing with them
“Freya is absolutely lovely! She was kind, professional, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. Benicio enjoyed his time with her a lot - he came back happy and relaxed. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. Thank you, Freya!”
About: Hi there! We’re Matt and Daniela, lifelong dog lovers who truly enjoy spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Matt grew up with two dogs and has always enjoyed their company. Together, we’ve looked after many friends’ dogs over the years — sometimes for just a day, other times for several weeks at a time. We know how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pets. That’s why we offer the same care, attention, and love we would give to our own. Whether it’s long walks, cuddles on the sofa, or keeping up with your dog’s routine, we make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Your dog will enjoy fresh air, plenty of playtime, and endless affection with us. We’d love to meet your furry friend and make them feel at home — because when they’re with us, they’re part of the family. Daniela mostly works from home, so your pet will have company throughout the day — plenty of time for cuddle breaks, playtime, and regular walks to keep them happy and relaxed. We have a fenced garden to make sure your pet is safe when playing outside. Please let us know if there is anything we need to know to make sure your dog is safe with us.
“Lisa has been completely brilliant, accommodating Her Ladyship and I very last minute. Marcie has really engaged well with Lisa and is always delighted to see her. Thank you Lisa, you’re a star.”
“Stef walks our dogs every week and they always have a great time! Stef is excellent with our labradors, incredibly patient and caring. One of our dogs is a puppy and Stef has been brilliant reinforcing the training and teaching Lana new skills.”
About: I first began taking care of animals when the neighbors would ask my sister and I to watch their cats and small animals while away. Then I finally convinced my parents to get a family dog and that’s where most of my experience is! During covid years, my friend and I have been doing house/pet sitting for family friends for the past year and I enjoy it so much. Unfortunately we lost our precious family dog Jack a couple years ago and having moved from the US to the UK, I am seriously missing animal interaction ! I am pursuing a masters degree in social work from UoG and am currently on a full-time placement until the end of July. During placement I work Monday-Friday, 9-4:30 but am available in evenings and weekends. Once placement ends I will have much more free time and flexibility. While I am currently living in an apartment and will not be able to bring your pet home with me, I enjoy going for long walks in some beautiful neighborhoods or parks of which Cheltenham has plenty to offer! I am also happy to check in on your fur baby for potty breaks, feeding time, or just to share some company for a while or even extend it to overnight house sitting as well if that makes them feel more secure!
About: I have been passionate about dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up with them, having them as pets, and looking after friends' dogs has only deepened my love of them. I offer reliable dog walking and visiting services, to dogs of all ages, every weekday from 9 am, along with comfortable boarding at my home. Whether your dog requires a refreshing countryside adventure, a fun park outing, an energetic playtime with games and balls, or a gentle local stroll, I am dedicated to providing the ultimate care and enjoyment for your furry friend. I have lots of time in the week to walk and play with your lovely dog. I’m available on weekdays from 9am. I also offer boarding in the week and on weekends. I have a fenced garden, with plenty of space to run around outside or play with a toy. I owned a dog for 15 until she passed recently, so my house is dog friendly.
About: I’m always the first person a friend or family member contacts when their doggo needs some loving whilst they’re away or busy. I love pets! I have a lot of spare time to dedicate to your fur babies and help out where I can! I finish work at 2pm and have chilled weekends so can offer a lot of time to care for your fur babies! I go for walks and runs daily and love being outdoors in all weathers. My schedule is hugely flexible I have a fenced garden and hard wooded floors inside my home. I don’t have anything fragile in my home so no risk to animals or pets at all
About: I am a passionate animal lover. I am very protective of them and always try to look after their necessities (Food, water, walks, games...Inc. Giving oral medicine) I enjoy their company whether it is in an outdoor or Indoor setting... I like to spend some good quality time with all domestic pets! I have experience with elderlysenior & therapy dogs! :) I am currently working & studying part-time. My work timings are generally on Fri, Sat & Sun in the early afternoons and early evenings. My study times are fairly flexible. Yet, mostly during the day time! I am generally able to accommodate and plan around the pets needs as my part time job works on a log in- log out type of basis - giving me the freedom to choose if I'm able to take on the job(s) or not. I have a fenced small size garden at the back of my flat :) ...It is a very safe, clean and green environment for pets to utilise
About: I learnt the responsibilities of caring for dogs early on in my childhood. I have grew up with dogs since I was a baby, and have always had a deep love for animals. I took this passion and love of animals and wanted to pursue it as a career. I studied animal management at college where I gained 3 years work experience in a boarding kennel. I then wanted to expand my knowledge further and continued my studies at Hartpury University in Canine Training and Performance, where I graduated with a 2.1 (upper second-class honours). Through this time I have gained a lot of experience on caring for a wide range of animals. Including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds and even pigs! I volunteered at a pig rescue in Ireland where I learnt a lot about these spectacular animals, who are a lot like dogs! I've learnt to deal with animals of all kinds of temperaments and how to pick up on body language to adapt my approaches quickly to ensure safety for all parties involved. This also helps to ensure that the animals are as stress free as can be. I do work full time however, I am typically available Mondays and Tuesdays, and most evenings. However this can change due to my work schedule. I have a fenced of garden to ensure security during their stay. I am also very knowledgeable about canine behaviours and training so am easily able to pick up on signs of distress when out on a walk to adapt and change to the environment

Dog owners share their Rover experiences - Cheltenham
My dog chooses his own walkers/minders and given how he bounces up and down in delight when Clare arrives at the door, he has obviously made his decision !! Clare’s quiet and calm demeanour is perfect for my excitable little mutt, and I feel completely relaxed when she takes him out. Regarding my dealings with her, she has shown remarkable patience with my uncertain situation, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a professionally minded and reliable walker and sitter.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Cheltenham. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.
