About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. As a child I had a collie growing up and then while bringing my young children up we had hamsters, cats and fish. Recently the family cat passed away so it’s strange having no furry companion in the home when I’ve had it my whole life. Both of my grown up children have dogs who I love walking and looking after and playing with. I retired early at the age of 55, so now I spend my time in the gym, spending time with my 1yr and a half grand daughter or with my sons labradoodle and cat who I look after when they go away or I frequently go and walk the dog when they are busy. I’ve also looked after my daughters mixed breed (staffie/frenchdog) in Belfast. So my day can revolve around your pet whether they love attention or rather be more independent I have a fenced garden and can drive to more scenic big walks or live local to fields and small walks. The dog is welcome throughout the home to feel relaxed
“Emma did such an amazing job whilst I was away that it really reasurred me. She gave Smudge all the patience in the world, allowing for Smudge ti build enough confidence to come out and watch. Thank you so much for for help Emma!!”
“Joella was fantastic! We were visiting Plymouth and needed someone to look after our puppy whilst we visited family. Joella met the evening before to meet pup and was so helpful and flexible. On the day, great Comms and pics whilst she had him. Thank you Joella! Fully recommend!!!”
About: I’ve been looking after my own animals and friends and families ever since i was a child, i’m excited to meet your fluffy cuties too. I currently work away in the week and have work from home days, so i spend lots of time at home where i have the capacity to look after some fur babies. I have a fenced garden and a dog flap, if they feel more comfortable sleeping in bed with me they definitely can too. They’ll get lots of cwtches and strokes.
About: I’ve been working for a doggy daycare for over 2 years. Through this I have met all types of personalities of dogs of all energy levels and a multitude of breeds. I have a level 2 in animal care. Also working towards a T level in animal management. Currently working towards my animal management T level but love working with furry friends whenever I have free time. I can negotiate times whenever it suits clients. I am DBS checked and can offer proof if requested, I can do visual health checks (behaviour, movement) to ensure your furry friend is comfortable and healthy. I will always do my best to insure your pup’s safety is Top priority.
About: I have a rescue German Shepherd and an ex service German Shepherd with experience of working with rescue organizations that have animals with all different needs. My two dogs can be reactive to other dogs so I have experience of calmly handling different situations and avoiding stressful triggers. I have previously been employed for over a year as a professional dog walker. It was an amazing job where I learned so much more about animal care. It was also where I learned walking six dogs at a time and managing those dogs and making sure everyone is getting the most of their walk. I’m available for dog walking and drop in visits between 11am and 4pm during the week. I would be happy to try fit you in my schedule should you need any extra help. I have a fenced in big garden that my two dogs love to run in. I am careful to make sure they get both enough mental and physical stimulation on a daily basis.
“We found Caitlin to be a very conscientious carer for our cat during our 8 day holiday. Lots of feed back received with photos or videos each day. Cat litter changed when necessary. Play & cuddles provided during the hour session. We returned to a very happy cat. Fully Recommended! Very happy cat owners Mike & Fiona”
About: I have had many years looking after my own pets and looking after pets for family and friends! Even though it has not been through a company I am confident in saying that I know how to look after a variety of different animals including rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, hedgehogs, I have also helped take care of my neighbours horse and helped with newborn rats up to their adulthood. and that this would be a great gateway into my career working with animals. As I have a lot of free time I will be caring for your pet everyday for as long as I have them under my watch, making sure that they are happy and healthy, ready for when there owner comes home As a pet owner of 2 hamsters and 4 guinea pigs or any small animal, I clean them out every week making sure that the space is tidy for them, I also give them a daily dose of vegetables and salad for them to get all the nutrients they need as well as making sure their water is full so that they can stay fully hydrated! And of course giving them their favourite treats.
“Becky is lovely. Teddy clicked with her immediately and treated her like a long lost friend. This was Becky's first visit to our house and I felt very comfortable with her. She clearly understands dogs very well and behaves in an affectionate and kind way towards them. I will definitely be in touch with Becky again.”
About: I have previously had cats and dogs myself. I have looked after dogs and walked them for a long time before I had my children and now we do it as a family. I am available around my childcare (feel free to contact me to discuss further). If walking/drop ins I may have my youngest child with me so a pet that is good around children is ideal although I can be flexible on this. I am available everyday of the week for a dog to stay in my house, however I cannot have cats to stay unfortunately. We also have children so it is essential they are good with kids and are crate trained. I am a trustworthy & reliable person. I have experience letting myself into other peoples home and caring for pets. I am open to visiting with owner before hand to get to know the pet and put owner at ease. Any pets staying will need to be fully crate trained with their own crate provided (open to discussion depending on specifics for the dog) and be good with children as I have 3 children under 5 in the property too.
About: After begging my whole life, I finally was allowed to get my own dog back in 2021. I got Ivy (my dog) as a puppy and completed all her training by myself. I think I’d read just about every dog training and behaviour book on the market so I could give Ivy the best environment possible. While I got very lucky with Ivy’s temperament, I have been a sitter for reactive dogs before. One dog in particular whom I have walked on occasion (but mostly did home visits) was very reactive and anti-social. I did meetings with the owner present to ensure the dog was comfortable with me before completing home visits alone. While on walks, it was imperative to keep this dog away from all other dogs, especially off-leash ones. I picked routes that ensured encountering minimal other people, and when we did come across other dog walkers I simply moved a fair distance off the path and held Frankie’s (the dog) attention using treats and positive reinforcement. By ensuring she kept her focus on me until the people had passed, it kept her reactivity to a minimum. Her reactivity was triggered by fear and anxiety, so avoidance of such situations meant that she was comfortable and therefore a pleasure to walk. I have experience sitting/walking dogs of all ages (including puppies and seniors) and feel comfortable with all breeds/sizes. I’m currently a university student, and with summer coming up I will have plenty of free time! I recognise the importance of reliability within pet-care and can promise to communicate my availability in advance. I have a fenced garden and space for a crate if necessary (however you would have to provide this equipment). Apart from larger equipment (like a crate/car cage, etc.) I can provide most things myself, such as food and water bowls, toys, treats, leash, etc. However these are mostly there as a ‘just in case’ option, as it is always better to use equipment your pet is already familiar with to avoid any discomfort or stress.
“Daisy was communicative and prompt and very calm and gentle with my puppy. She messaged if needed and took some gorgeous photos. I felt that he was safe with her. Definitely recommend, thanks Daisy !”

I currently work shifts as a Health Care Assistant at Royal Preston Hospital but I am free on my days off. I can be flexible.

Around my local area I am near to the malvern hills so plenty of dog walking options in the countryside.
About: Loving Care for Your Furry Family Member, I had a dog for the first 14 years of my life in which she became blind and deaf, this meant I had to give her oral and injections to treat her, I have experience in looking after my friends and families dogs as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in County of Herefordshire on Rover is £11.83 per Visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
Many sitters respond to requests in under an hour. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 .
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.
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.
