About: We are a family of four but very loving and caring. We live in Amersham. Due to family commitments happy to cover areas within 2mile radius only. I have more than 5 years of experience though I registered with this app in 2022. I am dog first aid/CPR trained and fully insured with Protectivity in case. I always offer meet and greet to ensure all your requirements have been discussed and you are happy with the services I provide. Due to children still being very young I have decided to mainly offer house visits and occasional house sitting services. We don't have any pets at the moment due to children still being young! My children love feeding the cats and playing with the pets under my supervision and only if agreed with the owner prior booking. During the house visits I'm more than happy to feed them, administer medication, play with your pets, walk them, change their litter, water plants, tidy up if needed and put bins out. Very flexible and open to any of your requirements. During the week can only cover early mornings and evenings. Happy to cover various times on weekends though. Required days could always be agreed in advance. Also accept last minute bookings! Please don't hesitate to ask us any extra times or days you might require as always happy to accommodate your requests. We are happy to accommodate your requirements with enough notice. I do offer house visits in the morning and evenings during the week and anytime on weekends. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you require any additional days or extra care time as we can accommodate it whenever we can. We have a fenced garden and spacious house. However, do not offer boarding at this point of time.
“We were very happy with the care our dog received! Tilly was very reliable, friendly, and great with our dog. Our dog was relaxed and happy when we returned. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Tilly again and highly recommend their service!”
“Haylie was amazing with all the animals and left the house as she found it. She came to visit to get to know Poppy before I went away and made sure I was kept updated as there was a heat wave over the weekend. It makes such a difference knowing your pets are safe and happy when you are on holiday.”
About: I've spent my whole life caring for animals, including my own dog and two cats, giving me a solid understanding of day-to-day pet care, and the responsibilities that come with it. I've also helped train a friend's puppy into an intelligent, strong herding dog, which naturally required a lot of attention/supervision and ample physical and mental exercise. I currently work part-time, so I'm home for large parts of the week and able to give pets plenty of attention, playtime and regular toilet breaks. I'm also a long-distance runner and live being outdoors, so getting out for walks, fresh air, and exercise fits naturally into my routine, so no matter the intensity, I'm happy to match each pet's needs. My home backs onto a large field with lots of open space, so when appropriate I can offer pets a great area to explore on-lead and enjoy some fresh air.
“Julie is a lovely woman who really cares about dogs. Both our boys were happy and bouncy when we came back and we could tell they were well looked after. She's very easy to deal with and the dogs seemed to love her.”
About: I’ve been around different breeds of dogs for 40+ years, including small and bigger breeds and currently have my own cockerpoo who is 7 years old! I’m currently working two mornings a week so I have lots of spare time and flexibility for drop in visits or overnight stays. pets are my passion and come first before anything else! Every pets needs are different and I will always make sure to fulfil individual needs including feeding times, getting them in at certain times if needed, any medication needs and most importantly making sure they are loved and cared for!
“Megan was great looking after Leo who took to her quickly. She was highly communicative and sent lots of pics, and managed the situation brilliantly and in good humour. when she got locked in the bathroom due to a faulty lock. Will definitely ask Megan to sit / walk Leo again.”
“Ellen is a wonderful sitter — Chaves has stayed with her more than once and she's coming back again this week, which speaks for itself. She did a meet and greet first, asked all the right questions, and kept me updated the whole time. Easygoing, caring, and reliable. Chaves and I are lucky to have found her!☺️🐶”
“Georgia is brilliant! She’s great at communication and was an instant hit with our two dogs and three cats. She sent lots of pictures and updates whilst we were away and we were very comfortable in the knowledge that the animals were having so much fun! Georgia even left the house cleaner than she found it so we were very grateful, thanks Georgia!”

About: I’ve had years of experience with dogs, we have had a family dog my whole life! since moving into my own place I now have a dog of my own. I would visit our local dog park 3-4 times a week so would probably spend more time with dogs than friends 😅 I’ll promise to look after your fur child like my own. I’ve had experience with basic obedience training for dogs, in addition to this my last seasonal role required me to care for the family cat, whilst also allowing me to care/ walk for dogs for surrounding families.

About: From a young age, I have had a strong interest in caring for and working with dogs. At the age of 11, I independently walked my Nana's Cavalier King Charles Spaniel both on and off the lead, helping to reinforce good behaviour through positive encouragement, treats, recall training, and simple tricks. I also regularly walked my neighbour’s Jack Russell growing up at the age of 14/15 each week, where I further developed my confidence handling dogs and enjoyed teaching basic tricks and commands. More recently, I have been volunteering to walk a large Labrador every week, which is something I get so much enjoyment from. I value the companionship, the opportunity to spend time outdoors on Sunday mornings, and the positive impact it has on both my physical and mental wellbeing while taking in the beautiful scenery and being at one with nature. I’m currently working part time , so I’ll have plenty of time to care and play with your dogs! I’m available for walking during the week and weekends as well as house sitting at weekends , feel free to message me and I’d be delighted to help whenever I can . I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I always follow the owner’s routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and house rules, to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I make sure pets stay entertained with walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection depending on their personality and energy level. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind. While house sitting, I treat every home with respect and care. I keep the home clean and secure, follow any instructions carefully, and make sure pets are supervised, safe, and comfortable at all times. Being a professional Nanny , I know how important it is to find the right person for your family and pet!

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Chiltern
This is the second time we have asked Cora to look after our border collie and it was so reassuring to know that we were leaving him in such good hands. This meant that we could properly relax on holiday, plus we always loved receiving our evening updates. Thank you Cora!
Rebecca did a fantastic job looking after our 3 cats. She took extra care of our very elderly cat who is almost 22. She sent us daily photos and updates several times a day which was so reassuring. She was extremely well organised and left the house spotless and even washed the bedding etc before she left. She also took care of our plants during the heatwave and looked after our fish. We really recommend her and would not hesitate to book her again
We were really pleased that we found Victoria to look after Bruno for a week. Our holiday coincided with a heatwave so Victoria had to contend with fitting walks in around the cooler times of the day (early morning and late evening). We got regular photos and videos that reassured us that Bruno was happy. Victoria seems to genuinely care about animals and builds up a connection with them quickly. When we got home, the house was exactly as we left it, you’d never know someone had been staying there! I would highly recommend Victoria.
Haylie was amazing with all the animals and left the house as she found it. She came to visit to get to know Poppy before I went away and made sure I was kept updated as there was a heat wave over the weekend. It makes such a difference knowing your pets are safe and happy when you are on holiday.
Shae looked after our dog Hobbes and our house for 6 nights whilst we were overseas this Easter. She went above and beyond to make sure Hobbes was well looked after. Communication was good and this provided real peace of mind for us to enjoy our trip knowing our dog and house were in safe hands.
This was our second time using Natalia and Nico to look after our two labs Bill and Ben and they did a brilliant job. We were sent regular updates and photos which made us feel secure in the knowledge that our boys were happy and relaxed with them. Our house was beautifully tidy on our return. We highly recommend them.
Niamh stayed at our home and looked after our dog, Coco, for ten days while we were on holiday - we were very impressed and would definitely recommend her to others!! Niamh popped over to see us before we made the booking. Coco warmed to her straight away and they sat on the sofa and had a cuddle whilst we chatted. Niamh is very polite and friendly, and made me feel at ease straight away. When we were away, she sent updates and photos of Coco out on her walks. She took her to lots of different locations in the area, which Coco would have found stimulating and very enjoyable. When we returned, the house was clean and tidy and Niamh had washed and dried her towels and stripped her bed, which was much appreciated. I'm sure Coco will miss her, so we will definitely contact Niamh again when. we need more dog sitting. Thank you, Niamh, for allowing us to relax and enjoy our holiday, safe in the knowledge that Coco was being well looked after back home ❤️

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Chiltern walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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.
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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
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 Chiltern 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. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
