“Felt so relaxed knowing our pup was in very good hands. Nadiana gave us regular updates and took such amazing care of our dog and our home. Would definitely recommend and use again. Thank you Nadiana!”

“Alen looked after our two dogs while we were away for our wedding, and he was fantastic. He kept us updated throughout, managed medication with no issues, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. Thank you, Alan”

“Repeat booking. This time Yvonne stayed at our house too. She was great at looking after our dog and left the house really clean. I would not hesitate to book Yvonne again”

“Felicitas was a superb pet sitter. She was very professional, definitely loves animals and they love her. She took everything in her stride and was not put of by looking after my very elderly cat and grumpy dog…..as well and a happy dog and calm big cat. She kept in very regular contact sending photos and videos of them all. The house was left very clean and tidy, plants watered. The dogs both looked sad when I opened the door and she was gone. Thank you Felicitas. I would very highly recommended Felicitas to anyone looking for a responsible, reliable superb pet sitter.”

“Lauren was amazing. Our dog Sam found it quite tricky when we left (more so than he ever had done before) and lauren knew exactly what do and we felt very happy and comfortable leaving him with her. She was so professional and even helped to manage our stress levels when we wondered whether we could actually leave him or not. I’d highly recommend Lauren and will be reaching to her again when we need a dogsitter.”

About: I’ve had my German Shepherd since I was 10, and training and caring for him has been one of my biggest passions. Since then, family and friends have trusted me to look after their pets, giving me experience with different personalities and needs. I’ve also cared for a reactive dog, which taught me how to stay calm, patient, and attentive on walks. I absolutely love being outdoors and hiking, and I think theres no better walking buddy than a lovely dog! I am currently a university student so i am mostly free on weekdays since i usually have one lecture a day, and completely free on Saturdays, and i am free before 3 and after 5 on Sundays :) I follow your pets routine as closely as possible to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and of course lots of attention and affection. I am also very big on respecting pets boundaries, my main priority being to make your pet feel safe and happy. I’m very respectful of the owner’s home and keep everything clean and tidy. I also provide regular updates, photos, and messages so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for. 💗
“Alex was absolutely brilliant! On time, super friendly and Connie (who can be a bit nervous) evidently got on with Alex really well. Would recommend and we will be using her again.”

“Thank you so much for caring for my two dogs at such short notice. I really appreciated the updates and photos and that you administered medication for my older dog and let both dogs out when needed during the night. They were clearly relaxed in your company and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to other people needing dog sitters 😊”
“Jo was blooming marvellous, so much so I asked to Rebook whilst I was still away!! The girls were well cared for and met Jo’s doggy for walkies which they all enjoyed,they had lost of cuddles and love and I was kept updated with pictures and messages. Jo left the house beautiful and tidy, she washed the bedding that had been used and even put fresh bedding on for when I returned. She kept up to date with the delay of our flight home and stayed a bit longer to ensure the girls had dinner and were not on their own long.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, including Border Terriers called Dodge and Annie. I have also had a cat called Tilly. I’m very comfortable caring for different types of animals.

I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific routines the pet is used to. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while their owner is away, and I keep the home tidy and respectful during my stay.

“A massive thanks to Charlotte who took excellent care of Ozzie and our house whilst we were away. She made it so easy to arrange the sit and stayed in touch throughout. It really helped us enjoy our time away. I would thoroughly recommend Charlotte”

“Isobel is incredible with our Cockapoo, Nellie! As soon as Isobel arrived, Nellie was so happy to see her and Isobel sends us lovely photos of them having lots of cuddles and playing!

About: I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, from training and walking to just cuddling. I am a dog fairy godmother, welcoming all shapes and sizes. I am currently working full time which means I am available for pet care at weekends, Saturday and Sunday. Your baby will be cared for as if they were my own. I do not have a fenced garden and your pet will not be out of the house without a lead on. My own dog was fine with this and I took him for regular toilet breaks. If you dog prefers to cuddle all day, I am more than happy to do that. If your dog loves to walk 3 times a day, I am also happy to oblige. Whatever your dog wants, I am happy to help.
About: I have over 9 years of experience caring for pets and currently have my own 4-year-old Cockapoo, as well as family dogs. Having grown up around both dogs and cats, I’m confident caring for pets of different ages, breeds, and personalities. I regularly help family and friends with their pets and understand how important it is to provide them with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. I’m committed to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved in my care. I have been working in the industry for around a year now around my full time role. Full DBS check and fully insured☺️ I currently work full time from home and I work in pet care in my spare time. My work is very flexible and allows me to work from anywhere. I can fit pet care around my weekly routine and give each pet proper time and attention required and requested. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting depending on the day, and I’ll always confirm timings clearly before a booking. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, whether that means morning or afternoon walks, feeding times, toilet breaks, playtime or evening company. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know everything is going smoothly. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first. I have an up to date DBS, I’m insured and I have done online health and CPR courses. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding routines, lead rules, medication notes, behaviour needs, emergency contacts and any areas of the home your pet can or cannot access. For walks and visits, I’ll make sure doors, gates and leads are secure at all times, and I don't let the dogs off the lead unless we are in a secure field and it has been agreed. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep everything tidy, and send regular updates so you feel reassured while you’re away.

Julia was great! It was the first time we’ve used a house sitter for our cat, and Julia made it all really easy. She sent me regular updates and photos and I felt completely relaxed knowing that Bennie was more than happy in Julia’s capable hands. Thank you Julia.
Themaria is excellent with our dogs and they really took to her! She communicates well and isn’t afraid to check up if unsure (which we really appreciate). Our collie has medication to take and this went well. Our very nervous Pomeranian was nudging her for attention by the time we got back! For us it is all about the dogs feeling safe, being cared for and loved and Themaria did it all! We also got plenty photos an videos too. Thankyou Themaria, we will see you again soon!!

Shellina is a Gem!!! She looked after my two dogs at short notice, both of which have their quirks. She was amazing with them and completely understood their individual needs. I live alone and it is so nice to have found someone I trust with my fur babies. Thank you Shellina! ❤️

Felicitas provided amazing care for my dog and reassurance for me through regular updates. My dog was very relaxed in her company. Felicitas was very understanding when the person supposed to be taking over from her had forgotten and turned up over two hours late. Thank you SO much Felicitas.

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 Crawley 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 Crawley 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:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 87% 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.
