About: Hi! 😊 I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—including rescue dogs with complex needs. My partner and I share a calm, loving home with our own dog, Marnie, a medium-sized rescue who we adore. We spend most of our time with her and love including the dogs we care for in our everyday activities—whether that’s exploring new walking routes, relaxing at home, or discovering fun dog-friendly spots. I understand that every dog is unique, and were committed to providing care that’s tailored specifically to your dog’s needs and routines. If your dog is crate trained, we have a clean, comfortable crate available. If they’re used to being on furniture, they’re welcome to make themselves at home here. Sleeping arrangements are flexible too—dogs are welcome to sleep upstairs with us, downstairs, or in their crate depending on what works best for them (and you). I will work around you as best as I can, please just let me know what your dog needs so we can tailor our day to them. I take into account the needs of your dog whether that be that they want to be closer to me or they want space. I am happy to let them on furniture or if you would rather they don’t I will go by your wants and needs. My dog is part of the family and sticks by my side. We have a completely enclosed back garden for toilet breaks & play. We have a front drive but don’t let dogs onto it if not on a leash. I live in a quiet and calm area with a close by park for lots of walks. It is just me & my partner in the house so very little noise. Snacks & cuddles are frequent!
“I have always used kennels when going away but thought I would try home visits and walking service instead to see how it goes. We'll I am very impressed after booking Athina services she came to our house prior to discuss things further and to meet Milo. This put us at ease straightaway and gave us peace of mind. Athina was always on time and would keep you updated with feed/water and toilet times during the visit. When booking Athina would keep in touch to make sure everything was in place and on schedule before the visits, great service and will be using her services again.”

About: My husband and I are a team. We’ve had pets all our lives, dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals. We’ve rescued dogs and cats and had large strong dogs including a Husky and Mastiff X. We've had dogs from puppies to 16 years old. We have looked after high maintenance dogs and reactive dogs. Ray also has Marine and Tropical fish and offers holiday care. With a lifetime of knowledge and experience, he's the man for the job. I am self employed and work on a part time basis, I drive and am happy to travel and work at times that suit you. I will care for your loved pets following your wishes and their needs. I would ensure their needs are being met. Years of experience and time available will allow me to be the most caring of sitter, walker, watcher or whatever you need.

About: I have had animals all my life. I have taken care of a variety of animals in my years of experience from reptiles to parrots and furry friends. Taking care of feeding, stimulating with play and exercise as well as assisting with medications where needed. I find a beautiful connection with all animals very quickly and love them all as if they were my own. I do have my own dog, a 12yo Jackuahua, he is very well trained and social with other dogs. We look forward to welcoming your furry loved one into our home and making new friends. I currently work from home. I am at home all day. So i have plenty of time to play with and walk your dogs. Im available for drop-in visits and walking every weekday with boarding being on weekends. I have a good sized, completely enclosed fenced garden with grass and 2 very friendly dogs that will be happy to welcome your furry friend for playtime. I can crate your dog if needed with 48hours notice required.
About: I’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ pets for over 5 years, building up plenty of hands-on experience with both cats and dogs. I have a real passion for animals and I’m a proud cat owner myself. I love spending time outdoors, so I’m always happy to take dogs on walks, including longer, high-energy outings. At weekends, you’ll often find me out on hikes, which makes me a great match for active dogs who need plenty of exercise and stimulation. I take my friends spaniel quite often on long walks, have him for sleepovers and I love building a bond with dogs and fitting them into my routine. I’m reliable, caring, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently work full-time, but I’m looking for something else in my life where I can help out and spend time with dogs. I’ll do my best to be available if you need me at specific times, though I do work from 8:30 to 5, however I do have the option to work from home if needed. I live in a semi-detached terrace house with a fenced garden. The stairs are quite steep, so any dog allowed upstairs would need to be able to manage them. There are plenty of nearby walking routes, and I also have a cat who is comfortable with dogs once she gets to know them - so a dog with prior experience around cats would be ideal.
About: Hi, I'm Kelly, I work in the NHS and love animals! I have always had cats as pets amongst other animals - I currently have a cat and two miniature dachshunds! I absolutely love cats & dogs and have a passion for loving them (on their terms, of course!). I currently have my own cat called Will who was a stray cat but now has a loving home with her two furry dog sisters who she loves (more like tolerates...). I used to work with my mum who had her own pet sitting service and this is where I got inspired on caring for other people pets in their own homes whilst getting an extra pet-fix for myself. I would love to care for your beloved animals whilst you're at work, visiting friends/family or if you've gone away for a break. I'm happy to do whatever your pet(s) loves whether that's playing, cuddling, grooming or being fed and left alone. I have many years of experience having owned cats and dogs and worked with my mum as a pet sitter. I am happy to give medication if needed but we would need to discuss this prior to any booking. If you have any questions or queries I am more than happy to answer them I usually work four days a week but am able to visit early in a morning (before 8am) or in the evening and I'm also available on the weekend. There may be occasions where my little girl accompanies me (only if your pet is okay with small children of course) If you prefer for your pets to be crated I am happy to do this on leaving, also if you would usually leave them with toys such as kongs/snuffle mats/lickimats I am also happy to refill these prior to leaving

About: I am a compassionate, lifetime dog lover with extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages and temperaments. Having recently cared for my own rescue dog until she passed at age 13, I am experienced in managing care needs—including mobility challenges, incontinence, and daily medication routines for senior pets. I understand how much gentleness, patience and attentiveness care rescue dogs need to feel safe and comfortable. My Experience & Skills = Professional Sitting: Previous experience as a professional nanny looking after family pets alongside children, as well as paid standalone pet sitting. All Sizes & Handling: Comfortable handling both small breeds and big, strong dogs who pull or walk rough on a leash. Flexible Schedule: I work remotely, meaning I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability during the day to keep your pets company, stick to feeding schedules, and give them the attention they deserve. I treat every dog with the same level of love and devotion as I treated my own, I miss her ever so much and would like somewhere to put some of that love and dedication now. I work remotely on my laptop with a highly flexible schedule, allowing me to easily fit pet care around my day. Because I can work from anywhere with Wi-Fi, I can stay at your home for house sitting without disturbing your pet's normal routine. I’m available for daytime drop-in visits, mid-day walks, and overnight stays, with complete freedom to give your pets frequent attention, play, and scheduled check-ins throughout the day. My priority is keeping your pets comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I treat every client's home with absolute respect, keeping it clean, secure, and quiet and have extensive experience doing this from my many years as a private nanny. I strictly follow your safety rules—whether that's double-checking gates and doors, managing leash safety during walks, adhering to precise feeding and medication instructions, or keeping a close eye on open windows for cats. Living alone and working remotely means I can provide focused, undivided attention and peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have several years of experience with pets, mostly dogs but also small animals and cats. I have two family dogs that are working spaniels, so I’m used to high energy and finding ways to stimulate them! I also have experience with senior dogs and blind dogs, I am able to administer medication, give extra attention and any additional needs. I have also done volunteer days at different animal charities in which dog walking was a large part of - I have worked with dogs in muzzles, different behaviors and temperaments. Charity days also largely consist of cat sitting and socializing so I can also offer drop in visits to cats for playtime/feeding etc! This also applies to small animals - having two guinea pigs myself that are spoilt, I am more than happy to pop into your smaller pets for a check up / feed and snuggle! I work for a pet retailer, so my experience with pet handling and knowledge around pets is second to none. I would love to walk / pet sit during my time off as it fills my days! I do currently work in retail management. But would love the opportunity to start looking after pets with my time, I am quite flexible due to working shifts also. I can easily use a crate and have experience with crate training. The garden is secure and house is secure. I would recommend a good quality lead and harness for walks.
“Fabiana is so kind and professional; our dog is quite anxious around new people in our home and Fabiana has been very assertive this week, getting to know Lara before her drop in sessions. We’ll definitely be using Fabiana again ❤️🐕”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats and been involved in looking after them since a young age. We’ve had lots of rescue animals and so have lots of experience dealing with shy and nervous animals. I work locally and from home through the week and manage my own schedule so can fit in visits around home life and work so can be quite flexible. I have a fenced back yard and locked gate and our house is at the end of a cul-de-sac so very quiet. The house has plenty of room inside for pets to play or have time on their own.

Emily has been absolutely brilliant! Couldn’t have asked for someone better to look after our cat. Emily took great care of him, looked after his eye if it went a little runny, stayed with him for a fuss and sent a video and message everyday. I would not hesitate to book her again! Thank you so so much.

Sharon was amazing! She really took her time and gave our cat, Boris a great fuss and made sure he was so well looked after whilst we were away for the weekend. She sent lots of pictures and such a detailed message from each visit to him! She really made us feel completely at ease, I would recommend her to anyone! Will definitely be booking again xx

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
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.
