Morag was absolutely wonderful looking after our indoor cat, she was really intentional about making sure she learnt about him beforehand and that we were a right fit for eachother, and sent plenty of updates and pics while we were away. Couldn’t recommend more!

About: Hiya, I’m Tarrah and I’ve been caring for animals pretty much my whole life. I grew up surrounded by animals and have spent the last 5 years pet sitting and the last 2 years house sitting for people around the world and in the UK. I genuinely treat pets like family, and I’m big on routines. I’m very intuitive with animals, and I take time to understand each pet as an individual. Different personalities need different care, and I always adjust to what your pet is comfortable with, and needs. You can expect regular updates, photos and videos while you’re away, and the peace of mind that your home and your pet are being looked after properly. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and kittens to senior and end-of-life pets, so I’m comfortable with both high-energy and gentle, slower routines. I have such a special connection with animals that growing up, my nickname was Ace Ventura and Dr Dolittle… which honestly still feels pretty accurate 😅. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet and your home with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously. If you’re looking for someone calm, reliable and genuinely invested in your pet’s wellbeing, I’d love to help. I work fully remotely and run my own business, which means my schedule is completely flexible. I can fit in walks, playtime, feeding, medication and cuddles throughout the day, and I’m always available to respond to updates or messages. Whether your pet prefers structured routines or more relaxed days, I can adapt to their needs and ensure they feel happy and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet at mine, I make sure the environment is secure, clean and calm. I follow your instructions to the letter, feeding, walks, medication, routines - and pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and temperament. I also provide regular updates, photos and videos, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy and loved.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover based in Chester, currently working as an animal keeper, so caring for animals is a huge part of my everyday life. I have hands-on experience working with a variety of animals and understand the importance of patience, routine, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply giving them lots of attention and affection, I’ll treat your pet like my own. I’m confident with different breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe hands. Pet care is a natural and rewarding part of my daily routine. As an animal keeper, I’m already dedicated to providing consistent, high-quality care for animals every day. Outside of work, I care for my own pets, making sure they receive all the love, attention, and structure they need to stay happy and healthy. Balancing professional animal care with personal pet sitting keeps my days full of purpose, compassion, and happy paws. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, secure, and happy in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s established routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions, ensuring minimal disruption to their normal schedule. I provide plenty of affection, enrichment, and attention while also keeping their space clean and safe. I also stay in close contact with owners, sending regular updates and photos so they can feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds - from rabbits to rats, fish to cats, and a dog or two as well! Having such a variety of pets taught me that every animal, big or small, needs the same things: care, attention, patience, and lots of engagement. Although I haven’t had pets of my own while at university, I’ve consistently lived with cats and dogs that needed looking after, so caring for animals has always been part of my daily life. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel relaxed and safe. What matters most to me is a pet’s quality of life. I make sure every animal I care for feels happy, stimulated, and well looked after while their owner is away. I’m a graduate student with a flexible schedule, and much of my work can be done from home. This allows me to easily plan my day around your pet’s routine and give them plenty of attention and care. I attend class on Tuesdays and every other Monday for no more than six hours, but outside of that I’m generally home and available throughout the week. This means I can be a consistent and attentive companion for your furry friend while you’re away. I follow your pet’s routine closely, whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime, to keep them happy and comfortable. On walks, I tailor the pace and activity to their energy level while always keeping safety in mind. When house sitting, I treat both your pet and home with care, giving companionship, attention, and a calm environment so your furry friend feels secure while you’re away. Clear communication and reliability are always my top priorities.

About: I have taken care of family and friends dogs for a long time. I also walk an elderly ladies dog through the Cinnamon Trust. I love spending time with dogs. I'm currently taking a summer break from work after 20 years, therefore I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I enjoy walking dogs in the park right by my house. I have a fenced decent sized garden for pets to enjoy. I enjoy a walk in the local park and fields for them to enjoy. I enjoy spending time with pets and I' very trusted to look after and care for them.

About: I have been caring for animals since I was a teenager, looking after neighbours’ cats and dogs. As an adult, I have volunteered with several animal sanctuaries and rescue organisations, caring for cats and kittens, ferrets, and rabbits. More recently, I have provided care for a friend’s chinchilla, cockatiel, bearded dragon, and tarantulas. I am comfortable caring for a wide range of animals and understand the importance of providing reliable, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important trust and communication are, and I’m committed to providing regular updates and dependable care. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I can dedicate quality time to feeding, playing, exercising, and keeping them company while maintaining their usual routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing are my top priorities. I will always follow your care instructions and maintain your pet’s usual routine to help them feel relaxed and secure. I am happy to carry out any necessary cleaning for indoor pets, administer medication if required, and ensure each pet receives care tailored to their individual needs. I will also keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’ve owned two dogs since I was 10 years old, and caring for them has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding every dog’s individual needs. One of my dogs, Cassie, is a Romanian rescue who is reactive to both people and other dogs. Working with her has given me extensive experience in handling and training reactive dogs. Over the years, I’ve worked alongside several professional behaviourists, learning positive reinforcement techniques, reading body language, and building confidence in anxious or reactive dogs. This means I’m comfortable caring for dogs who may need a little extra patience and understanding! I’ve also fostered three rescue dogs before they found their forever homes. Fostering has helped me adapt to different temperaments, routines, and training needs, ensuring each dog felt safe, loved, and well cared for during their stay. For the past three years, I’ve regularly house sat and pet sat for people in my local area. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, administering routine care, sticking to established routines, or simply providing companionship, I always treat every pet as if they were my own. I genuinely love spending time with furry friends, and nothing makes me happier than seeing them relaxed, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m reliable, responsible, and committed to providing a safe and loving environment for every pet. I understand how important it is for owners to have peace of mind, so I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and messages throughout your pet’s stay. I offer pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking services, tailoring my care to your pet’s individual needs and routine. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to spend plenty of quality time with your pets to ensure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether your dog loves long walks, enrichment games, cuddles on the sofa, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾 I’m currently working part time in hospitality in Chester, working around 25 hours a week. I’m available whenever as I try and notify work to give me limited hours and shifts in order to be around for the animals. This may include a split shift if your pets are happy to be left alone, where I’ll get a few hours at lunch for a lunch walk and food and then be back to them around dinner time for another walk, feed and a chilled evening! When house sitting and pet sitting in your home, I’ll follow your routine closely to keep your pets happy, safe and relaxed. They’ll be fed, exercised, given lots of love and company, and I keep your home secure, clean and cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing everything is in safe hands!

About: My Background I have grown up around dogs including one nervous dog, I grew up around spaniels, labradors and greyhounds so bigger and smaller dogs are welcome.

As you can probably tell I am a big animal lover and would be honoured to take care of you fur babies! My availability/work I am a freelancer and student so have the most flexible schedule as I am fully available on any days you book with me! Most of my work can be done from my phone and laptop which allows me to dedicate my time to your pets. I’m currently a student going into my master which is one day a week, however I am on summer break at the minute so have all the time in the world to look after your little darlings! I am experienced with nervous dogs so I know when to let your pet have some downtime! I check in regularly and make sure they are okay and happy.

Laura was fantastic with our boy Pickles. We came back from our trip away to him acting like nothing was different and we had been home the whole time. Laura was very easy to communicate with and kept us thoroughly up to date on all of Pickles visits, with some of the funniest pictures we've seen of Pickles yet! We would highly recommend Laura for your pet sitting needs and will be looking to rebook with her again in the future. Thanks Laura!

Chloe has been absolutely fantastic and I'm sure she's replaced me as Miri's favorite human! It made a real difference to our holiday, having complete peace of mind that Miri was content and well looked after. I really looked forward to the daily updates that Chloe sent me about what Miri was getting up to, how she was eating, and the cuddles she was getting, and sent great photos and videos of their play sessions. It was fantastic to see Miri so content and getting some love. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Chloe, and would not hesitate to ask her to look after Miri again.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. 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.

Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Chester pet parents with similar pet households.

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.

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 Chester choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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.
