About: I am a genuine animal lover with experience caring for a wide variety of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, I have looked after energetic puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between, always adapting to their individual needs and routines. I understand the importance of providing plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and a safe environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply offering affection and reassurance, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to ensure both pets and owners feel confident, happy, and well cared for at all times. I understand that pets are happiest when their usual routine is maintained, so I always adapt my schedule to suit the individual needs of the pet I am caring for. Whether it’s specific feeding times, regular walks, play sessions, medication schedules, or quiet time to relax, I make every effort to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences, habits, and personality to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owner is away. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care that helps pets feel safe, happy, and at home. Safety, trust, and creating a positive environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their pets are in safe and reliable hands. I provide a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel comfortable and relaxed while maintaining their usual routines. I am attentive to each pet’s individual needs, ensuring they are supervised, cared for responsibly, and treated with kindness and respect at all times. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through clear communication, reliability, and a genuine commitment to providing the highest standard of care.
“We've booked Sophie several times now and she is simply wonderful. Our cats can be timid but are very happy with Sophie. She looks after them well and is so trustworthy. Sophie knows I am a worrier and keeps me regularly updated on how they are all getting on and I really appreciate it. Thank you Sophie!”

“I would highly recommend Helen, my puppy Atlas had a wonderful day in her care. Helen’s communication is great, we initially setup a meet and greet and we discussed everything in detail about his routine. It was really clear to me that Helen takes a lot of care and attention to really understand yours and the puppy’s requirements. Helen came and house sit for the day to make sure that Atlas wasn’t left alone - when I came back it was clear to me how much time she must’ve spent interacting and playing with him through out the day as he was incredibly responsive to her voice. Thank you Helen !!”


About: I have a dog of my own and would love to care for yours as is it best to have someone who actually cares! Id like to work at a rescue one day, but until then, id like to gain some experience in dog sitting. My dog is a senior so i have some experience with giving oral medication and ear drops. Im also very good with energetic dogs and can provide engaging activities at many points of the day such as exercise. Im currently a six form student, so I have plenty of time to do this as a side hustle, until I leave for summer, I’m available from 2 on Wednesdays and Friday, and the whole weekend I take my dog on daily walks, as well as providing him with medication as he’s a senior. like eardrops teeth care and various spa treatments. His food is perfectly portioned with nutrients and a balanced diet.
About: I’ve been looking after the fur-babies of my friends, family and colleagues for as long as I can remember. As a child my family have always had dogs and cats as members of our family. I love the opportunity play and snuggle. This is how I spend free time: cuddles with my two kitties who my husband thinks I love more than him… no comment. I am currently a part-time teacher so I’m always free on school holidays, weekends and Mondays. I’m going to be leaving soon so I will have lots more availability . In my experience pets are happiest in their own environment where they feel comfortable and safe, which is why I am happy to offer in-home visits, where I can feed/play/walk with your pet.
About: I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe and happy while their people are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your dog feels loved I’m taking a break from my career to focus on happiness — and what better way to do that than spending time with animals I adore. I care for pets in their own home by keeping them happy, following their routine, giving plenty of love, playtime, and attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for 5 years now and I’ve looked after family friends dogs on multiple occasions. Having pets with health and dietary needs I understand the importance of maintaining routine to ensure their needs are met. I’m currently a student and work part time over the summer so will have plenty of time dedicated to car cuddles and playing with puppies! When house sitting I’ll always ensure your comfortable sending you updates from your fur babies and photos to let you know what they’re up to and how they’re doing. Having two small and delicate breeds of dog I know that safely is vital when handling certain dog breeds and will ensure that your pups are always safe!
About: Growing up in a home that was never without paws, claws, or wagging tails, owning and caring for animals hasn’t just been a hobby for us—it has been a lifelong way of life. Over the years, we have loved and raised eight wonderful cats, navigating everything from the delicate care required for pregnant felines to raising newborn kittens. Our canine experience is just as diverse; we have looked after a wide variety of dog breeds, ranging from energetic small pups to powerful large breeds. Currently, we are the proud owners of a gorgeous American Akita, a breed that has taught us deep patience, precise communication, and the art of managing large, strong-willed dogs. I am full time at home so have plenty of time to keep your pets to your set routines and give them the care they require We have a large back garden that is fully fenced and secured off. We stick to your exact routine and their dietry requirements as well
“Jane was brilliant and very accommodating to our fairly specific requests due to us getting married! She took great care of our toy poodles and kept us updated. I’d recommend Jane to anyone and will definitely be in touch again if needing a dog sitter. Thank you, Jane!”

“Aissa took great care of our dogs and home whilst we were on holiday. Her communication was fantastic with constant updates and we came home to two happy and content dogs. We also really appreciated how clean and tidy she kept our house. Will definitely be in touch in the future!”


“Sophie was amazing! She stepped in at the last minute after we were let down, looking after our 3 pooch babies while we attended a wedding. Sophie came to meet the dogs hours after she returned from being on holiday and I have to say, they all loved her immediately. Sophie you gave us such peace of mind so that we could enjoy the weekend, we’re very grateful. Thank you so much 🐾🐶🐾🐕🦺🐾🐕🐾”

About: What sets me apart is my 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs & cats of all ages and personalities.

I offer more than just sitting—I can help with basic training for young dogs & cats provide gentle and attentive care for senior pets, as well as grooming and regular walks. I’m confident handling different temperaments and always adapt to each dog’s and cats needs to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every dog& cat as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, patience, and care while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine as I’m home full-time, which means I can provide constant supervision, attention, and care. I’m available throughout the week and weekends, so pets are never left alone for long periods. I plan my day around their needs—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, training, or simply giving them companionship. Being at home allows me to be flexible and responsive, ensuring each pet gets the time, care, and attention they deserve I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets in my home.

I always supervise interactions to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable.

About: Since the age of 10, my life has been dedicated to animals. Growing up on a farm in Portugal, I was surrounded by the heartbreaking reality of stray animals, which sparked a lifelong mission to help. I couldn't turn a blind eye; I brought home every animal in need—from dogs and cats to injured birds. Eventually, after endless ignored "no more animals after this one" pleas, my parents finally accepted their fate and helped me build dedicated kennels on our farm. Together with the local community, we provided food, medical care, and a safe haven for these animals until we could find them their forever homes. Through these 17 years of rescue work, I didn't just provide care; I studied animal behavior deeply, learning how to communicate with and comfort dogs of all temperaments. Currently, I am the proud parent of two dogs—a Husky and a rescue Collie/Lab—who are my entire world. I know how difficult it is to leave your fur-babies behind, which is why I treat every guest like a member of my own family. When your dog is with me, they can expect: * 🌟 Endless Love & Cuddles: No shortage of affection and sofa time. 🌟 Active Adventures: Frequent walks and play tailored to their energy levels. 🌟 Paddock Time: I live 10 minutes away from a secure paddock where I take my dogs all the time; I'm happy to take yours for a run there too! 🌟 A "Spoilt" Experience: I promise to love and spoil your pups just as much as I do my own. I truly miss the feeling of being surrounded by "fur" and making a difference in an animal's life. I can’t wait to meet your best friend and give them a home-away-from-home experience! I'm currently studying full time from home so your fur baby will never be alone. Walks 3x a day - morning after and evening I go paddocks often especially in good weather and I am happy to take yours along. I offer a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced-in garden for secure playtime. My two friendly dogs provide great company, ensuring your pet never feels lonely. I am experienced with crate training if needed for sleeping or quiet time. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a consistent routine, plenty of supervised exercise, and constant attention to keep your fur baby happy and secure.

About: Hi, I’m Jamie! I work in an office job with consistent shifts, which allows me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time in the morning or evening to care for your beloved cats. Whether it's providing attention, playtime, or just cuddles, I’m here to ensure your cats feel loved and cared for. I've been living in Stanion for the past three years with my fiancée and her parents, during which time we've had three wonderful rescue cats—Ross, Ivy, and Snowy. I’ve adored looking after them and especially enjoy the unique quirks and personalities that make every cat so special. Throughout my life, I’ve also had experience administering medication to cats with conditions like thyroid and renal disease. If your cat requires any type of medication, rest assured that I’m confident and comfortable handling it with care and precision.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and caring for pets has been a big part of my life for many years. Over the past few years, I’ve gained hands on experience pet sitting for families while they travel, including longer stays where I’m fully responsible for daily routines, feeding, walks, playtime and general wellbeing. I’ve looked after a variety of pets with different personalities and needs — from confident, energetic animals to more nervous or independent ones. I’m patient, calm and attentive, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine so they feel safe and settled in my care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure owners feel completely at ease while they’re away, with regular updates and photos if requested. At the moment, I have a very flexible schedule, which means I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. While I’m currently looking for a more permanent role in animal care, pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily routine and allows me to focus fully on looking after pets. I’m available throughout the day for feeding, walks, playtime, companionship and check ins, and I can easily adapt my schedule to suit each pet’s needs and routine. I always aim to provide a calm, safe and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in an owner’s home, I make sure routines are followed closely and that each pet’s individual needs and boundaries are respected. In my home, pets have a secure, relaxed space with access to a large garden for fresh air and play (always supervised and in line with owner instructions). I also live very close to a variety of walking routes, which means I can tailor walks to suit different energy levels - from short, gentle strolls to longer, more active walks. I have a friendly cat at home who spends much of their time outdoors or visiting a neighbour, so I’m mindful of introductions and always prioritise safety and comfort. I would only care for pets in my home if they are happy around cats and if owners are fully comfortable with the setup. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I treat the space with complete respect and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Corby
Helen was able to pet sit for us at very short notice for three weeks, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took excellent care of our pets and looked after our home wonderfully. Throughout her stay, she provided regular, detailed updates, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Helen is very approachable, friendly, and always willing to help. Most importantly, our pets absolutely loved her and were clearly happy and comfortable in her care. We would highly recommend Helen to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter, and we would be delighted to have her look after our pets again in the future.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home.

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.

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 Corby 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.

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 Corby 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.

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.
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.
