“Caitlin was absolutely amazing! She responded to my request at very short notice and was so accommodating and helpful throughout. While looking after Frankie, she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing he was in such good hands. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and looked after him so well. She also left my home absolutely spotless, which I really appreciated. I honestly couldn’t have asked for better care for Frankie and would highly recommend Caitlin to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you so much, Caitlin! 🐾❤️”
“I booked Jiahui for house sitting with Cookie, and she was absolutely brilliant. She came over for a meet & greet beforehand, which immediately made me feel at ease and confident leaving Cookie with her. While I was away, she kept me updated regularly with photos of Cookie looking happy and relaxed. She followed all the care instructions perfectly, including feeding times, walks, and everything else. When I came home, Cookie was clearly well cared for, and the house was spotless — which honestly says it all. Jiahui is clearly very experienced with dogs and extremely responsible. Communication was smooth throughout, and I felt completely comfortable knowing Cookie was in good hands. I would definitely book her again.”
About: We are a loving energetic family of 2 adults, 2 girls aged 14 and 12. We've always had pets in our household and would look forward to welcoming yours. We live in an open space house where the doggies can run around and also have a lovely secured garden, we go for daily walks to the park round the corner. My girls love playing and cuddling doggy guests. It will be like their home to home. We often bake doggy treats. If your doggy would love to stay the night it would be our pleasure and would be in trusted hands. We would provide care to dogs up to 7kg in weight. I'm at home daily as I do the kids school pick up and drop off during term time so around for lots of doggy attention, cuddles and walks. I'm available for home boarding from 1 to 10+ days also day care and walks. If local I also offer pick up and drop off. If your doggy needs to attend an event I can also incorporate into the booking.
“Absolutely recommend without hesitation. Stayed with my dog Ronnie for a week in my home. Kept me up to date with photos. Several of which were Ron getting her much loved belly rubs. Ron loved her and was very well taken care of. Millie also left my house spotless. Excellent service will be booking again if she’s available.”
About: My family own a fluffy little pomeranian, so I am well versed in how to deal with a dog who has bundles of energy and wants to play all of the time, but also has that stubborn streak! I have looked after cats for friends when they have been on holiday, so have experience following specific feeding schedules, playtime, and bedtime. I am currently a freelancer, so when house sitting, I will be able to be with your pet in the house for the whole day. I can provide general house sitting as well as drop in services. I am always happy to follow the schedule your pet is already comfortable with and offer lots of playtime and however many toilet breaks that are needed. Always happy to give lots of cuddles too (if they like to be cuddled!).
About: I used to be a groomer and worked at a pet store. I have high tolerance for animals and is fully educated on the proper care and treatment. Although I am a full time student, I find time with animals as a sort of relief and comfort out of the hassle of it all. I used to have several animals under care. Cats, turtles, fishes and a chicken farm. I have a soft spot for animals so do treat them fairly and lovingly.
“We were overjoyed to have Danni looking after our two dogs. She cared for them brilliantly, sending daily stories and truly amazing photos of them. We would highly recommend Danni. Thank you, for an amazing job looking after our dogs.”
“Rosie was fantastic; she took great care of our dog and our cat. She kept us updated with how they were doing, sent photos, and even left a little gift for our dog at the end of her stay. We will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I used to have my own dog which unfortunately passed away due to old age. I started dog sitting for a friend then ive made contacts whilst out dog walking. Everyone is happy especially the dogs I absolutely love it I spend a lot of time with my friend who is a 94 year old dog lover and will take the dog/s with me. The dog will be with me all day long I have a secure fenced garden with a gate that my neighbours open when they are home as they love dogs as much as I do and the dog/s can roam freely between the gardens. We both had dogs before which passed away due to old age. Circumstances hasn't allowed me to have another dog, which now i dont mind as i have the best of both worlds.
“Our dog, Pip, had a fab time with Nichola and her son. She was clearly treated like a member of the family and had a wonderful time going out about about. We had lots of photos, videos and messages which meant any worries about the dog were quickly put to rest. Pip also adored Nicholas's garden (with particular emphasis on dive bombing one poor bush 😂). But nothing was a problem and Nichola is clearly very experienced with dogs and caring for them. We would absolutely book Pip in again!”
“Emily is amazing my dogs love her I think they will be hoping I go away more often! I love the regular pictures and updates from her so I have peace of mind while I’m away and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend for any pet sitting jobs.”

We had a really positive experience and would happily recommend CaitlynShe arrived on time, kept us updated throughout the stay, and we felt completely reassured knowing Buddy and Surdi were being well looked after. Her communication was excellent, and it was lovely receiving regular updates about how they were getting on. She was also very respectful of our home and left everything clean and tidy. Most importantly, it was clear that she genuinely cared for both dogs and gave them plenty of attention, affection and company. We came home to two very happy dogs! We’d be more than happy to have her look after Buddy and Surdi again in the future. Highly recommended!
So sweet and kind. Came to meet us beforehand and came early on the day as it was my first day back at work leaving my puppy. Could not recommend more highly - gave me photo and text updates. Nyla didn't even bother to greet me when I got back she was so content sleeping on Yasen!
As always Allanagh gave us complete peace of mind whilst we were on holiday. It’s the longest we have left our beloved Chi & he was looked after as we would look after him ourselves. Regular updates & photos helped ease any anxieties I had. Allanagh is a star sitter & our Chi adores her ! 💫
Amazing. Yee lam has been amazing. Her and her partner came to stay at our house for 3 nights and have been updating us worth picture of the dog several times a day. Yee lam was very confident and knowledgeable. I was totally at ease leading her and my occasionally difficult dog together
Adam is absolutely brilliant. We have been able to leave Winnie with him again and know that she is completely safe being looked after as one of his own.. Adam is reliable punctual communicates regularly and has a genuine Love of animals. I would highly recommend- thank you Adam. 👍
From the moment Tim walked through the door we were totally put at ease. He was confident, professional, polite and very friendly, he certainly made a fantastic first impression You could tell straightaway that he was a very animal friendly person and had great knowledge and passion about dogs. I suffer with terrible anxiety and felt quite relaxed about leaving my babies behind. During our time away we were kept updated on the welfare and behaviour of our dogs. With pictures, videos and messages. It was great to see that Gabbi had resumed her natural position of laying in Tims arms like a baby, she couldn’t have been more relaxed. Our pair certainly had a fabulous time and they had all the love care and attention that they are used to. Please come back any time, Tim We luffs you Gabbi and Billi xx
I liked Nadia from the moment we met, she asked all the right questions and was genuinely interested in learning about the needs of both my cat and dog. Nadia stayed from Christmas eve until Boxing day, she gave me regular updates on how my pets were doing. The house was clean and tidy when I returned home and when I checked on the home camera, she was always interacting with my pets, she was a lovely girl and a wonderful pet sitter, I will definitely be booking Nadia again. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone else.

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 Coventry 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 Coventry, the price of house sitting can vary between £29 and £58 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 Coventry 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.
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
