“Ewan house sat and looked after my Otto for a week. Great communication and contact during this period! Ewan’s a great lad and has lots of experience with large, dogs with a high drive and this made me comfortable whilst I was away knowing all Otto’s needs were met. I can’t recommend Ewan enough and all my neighbours raved about how much a nice lad he is! He’s created a strong bond with Otto and I will definitely enquire about using him again! 10/10”


About: I have been around Dogs all my life , I live on a working sheep and beef farm so we have Border Collies and Jack Russell’s . I also have experience with Terriers , Newfoundland and Maremma’s as my family have owned and rescued these dogs. I regularly look after our dogs as my parents are busy on the farm. I’m currently not working as just left college so I am available anytime of the week and I do not have any holidays booked . I offer pet sitting in the owners home day or night, I don’t offer in my own home because we are a working farm

About: Hi, I’m Sophie, I have 2 dogs of my own, one’s a Labrador and the other is a Labrador mix. I have always had a love for animals and would be excited to have the opportunity to provide your animals with the care they deserve. I am a reliable and kind person. I understand the importance of treating every animals with kindness. At the moment I am available full time, so am available at any time to check in and play with your pets. I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays from 3pm. I am unable to house sit at my own home. But I am happy and more than willing to look after your pets at your own home
About: I have owned animals since I was a child from guinea pigs to cats to dogs. I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat and a rabbit. My dog is a husky so I am used to getting out walking daily. I am available all day for drop ins and walks. I own a husky who is very kind and gentle, she gets along with other dogs but can be left at home if it is an issue. I love long walks as well as short ones and plenty of play time. I have a very big secure back garden which is great for the dogs running around or relaxing in. I have a very small for her age husky who gets along with other dogs with no issues.
About: Hello! Unlike some other sitters on Rover, i have a year of dog sitting experience and work experience in a kennels, cattery, riding school and small animal vet clinic. I have been caring for dogs ever since 2012 when i was around seven years old and have also had some experience with rabbits and birds around the age of 4 years old. During my work experience, i have learnt how to analyse basic animal behaviour well and have learnt how to follow a schedule of feeding times, medicine that need to be administered and how to meet the needs of both dogs and cats. I’ve helped with grooming and bathing at the kennels and i am patient at all times, giving space to animals when they need it. I am the type of pet sitter to give some advice to owners if i feel it may benefit the owners and the pet. For example, if i see your dog eats too quickly, i might recommend a slow feeding bowl to reduce chances of things such as GDV happening to your dog. I have helped two owners during my time as a pet sitter as i have noticed medical issues in their dogs such as signs of a urinary infection or epulis. If you do not want advice, please let me know beforehand as i do not tolerate rude behaviour. Im currently available at all times so whatever type of schedule you would like for your pet, i can work around. When a dog is in my own home and is sleeping over, i sleep nearby to make sure that they are comfortable and safe as that is my first priority. I give every dog at least one walk a day (or more if you would like) In my own home, i have an attached house which is kept clean at all times and it has a back garden with tall fences and no grass. Its a relatively big garden with lots of plants and vegetables around. I do have a dog of my own in the house who’s an eight year old Sproodle who is playful but is no threat to other dogs as she loves to greet them no matter the age. She is gentle with puppies and sleeps in her own bed in the kitchen. In my house, i live with two sisters and my mother. No matter the house im caring for your pet in, i will stick to a schedule and your rules however you prefer. I will make sure your pet is entertained and cared for well and will return home happy!
“Anna was so lovely with rodney and sent me loads of pupdates whilst i was gone which was amazing, great communication, he loved her to bits!!! will definitely book with her next time. thank you so so much!!xx”
“Our first time using a sitter for our boys. They go everywhere with us including work so they’re not used to being alone. Aaron arrived and our two rushed at him like they were all old friends which instantly put me at ease. Eddie is only one and usually barks for ten minutes meeting new people but not with Aaron. He virtually sat on his knee. Aaron is a massive dog love lover , that is obvious straight away, he is kind and caring and very respectful. Absolutely perfect for us thank you Aaron”

About: My family have rescued and rehomed animals my entire life. We have also had our own cats and dogs over the years amongst other animals such as birds. We even took care of a little baby lamb we named daffodil who needed to be hand fed. I have experience with westies as we have had these dogs all my life. However, I have cared for other breeds too. I have so much love for animals and I would love to share this with your baby should you need this when you are away. Because let's be real they are always our little babies and we want to know they are safe and loved. I spent ten years working in hospitals caring for people before finding another career and I remember all the stories I would hear of all the special Cats/Dogs that were part of these people lives and family. Happy to answer any questions should you have any. I work flexible hours from home so with enough advance notice I can look after your pet in your own home to provide them with their usual comforts. I have spent the last 10 years working in healthcare so I have knowledge in regards to medication if this is required. I have my own cat and family dog and have looked after cats/dogs previously so understand routines. Of course lots of love and cuddles too. But I will always let them find their trust in me first.
About: I don’t charge for puppies!! Message me for specific rates but please ignore the Rover value for puppy care. I’ve always loved animals and grown up surrounded by them, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, including terriers, miniature poodles, and German Shepherds, as well as looking after pets for other owners while they’ve been away. I’m confident with both small and large dogs, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I love spending time with dogs and making sure they have all the attention they need. I currently work part time, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to spend with your dogs. Most of the time I’m able to work around your schedule and offer reliable, consistent care, whether that’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays in your home. I always look after dogs in their own home, so they can stay in a place they know and feel comfortable in. I’m calm and confident with all kinds of dogs, including those who are a bit nervous, excitable, or need a bit more patience and understanding. I’m also happy following any routines you already have in place, whether that’s feeding, walking, grooming, or just keeping things consistent for them. After visits or walks, I like to send a quick update with a photo so you can see how your dog is doing and what they’ve been up to. If something ever seems a bit off, I’ll always let you know. For overnight stays, I’m happy to adjust how often I update you - some people like lots of updates, others prefer to relax knowing everything is taken care of, and I’m happy either way.

About: I absolutely adore animals, growing up surrounded by both dogs and cats. I currently own 3 cats with my partner, and had my beautiful golden retriever Talar with me for 14 years until she very sadly passed. I like to spend my spare time horse riding, and have frequently cared for pets for friends whilst away on holiday. As a genuine animal lover with over 10 years of pet care experience, I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet can feel comfortable, settled, and well cared for while you are away. I understand that every pet is different, with their own personality, routines, and individual needs. I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure their care is tailored to what helps them feel relaxed, happy, and secure. Your pet’s wellbeing and your peace of mind are very important to me. I provide regular photo and video updates throughout their stay, so you can see how they are settling in and enjoy reassurance that they are happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention. I currently work full time as a customer service manager but I’m looking into transitioning my career into an animal care focused sector. I can offer full time care most weekends and evening care after 5PM. I will also have some full day weekday availability at periods. I like to offer meet and greets before committing to any care to ensure both you and your pet are as comfortable as possible with the services I offer. It’s so important to understand each pets needs as their personalities can be so individual. I’m comfortable with all size, breed and temperament of both cats and dogs, including walking, bathing, brushing, playing and feeding.

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 Chorley walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
House sitting is priced per night and generally includes an overnight stay. In the city of Chorley, the price of house sitting can vary between £26 and £37 per night.
Just make sure you and your sitter agree on the actual hours they'll stay in your home before you accept the booking. Each sitter has their own routine, and some might suit your schedule better than others. Keep your messages on the Rover app for future reference.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a 'home base' service. Most sitters in Chorley maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for 'WFH' sitters: Many sitters mention 'Work from Home' on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical 'away' windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

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.
