“Rachael has been absolutely fantastic with Jupiter. She looked after him for a week and she made sure he was being fed, cleaned and she was also playing with him all the time. I would recommend Rachael as she is 100% reliable. We would definitely ask her to cat sit Jupi once again! ”

We even had our flight delayed and Hope, in a matter of minutes made sure to visit our baby boy to give him comfort and extra food. Hope is not just a cat sitter, she is an amazing person, most reliable, caring and trustworthy.Thanks to her, we could happily enjoy time away, knowing our baby boy in getting the best care in the world, all provided by Hope. We can't thank you enough for your hard work and dedication!”

“Hi I was delighted with Larissa's care for my cat. She is naturally good at making cats feel happy with her, took time to meet and greet first, prompt arrival and gave detailed update and photos. She went to some effort to make sure Max was in a safe place and secure before leaving, I shall definitely book Larissa again and recommend her to others”

“Dalo was fantastic with Holly. She's an old rescue on oral liquid medication and though Dalo hadn't medicated a cat before, he took to it like a duck to water. He was so intuitive to reading her subtle behavioural cues, and gave her the perfect amount of space and cuddles to meet her needs. Would have him again in a heartbeat!”

Thea has visited multiple times now, even going out of their way to help me when I hadn’t left a key! I also receive thorough updates and images so I am never left worrying. I will be recommending to anyone that needs a caring and trustworthy sitter. Thank you!”

She was friendly and communicative and we really appreciated all of her updates and cute photos :) Fry loved Pui from the second he met her (which is unusual for him as he is very shy) - he seemed happy and relaxed when we came back, although I can tell that he misses her a lot 😅! I couldn’t recommend enough and Pui will definitely be our first choice cat sitter in future :) thank you!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have my 10 year old Maltese boy, Tucker. I’m not in a position to get a second dog, but would love to help others all whilst Tucker makes some new friends! I work from home full-time, Monday-Friday, so your doggo would have access to me 24/7. I have my own dog, Tucker, a pure-bred Maltese, who would love to make some friends along the way! I live in a one-bedroom flat, and have easy access to outdoor space. Similarly, I can walk ten minutes to reach my local park, so walkies are easy :)

About: Hi! I’m Savannah, a young working professional in the dairy industry and, more importantly, a lifelong animal lover. ❤️ Growing up in South Africa, I was surrounded by nature and animals, and our home was always full of different pets, from dogs and cats to birds, hamsters and fish. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, my family and I have also rescued injured birds, cats and dogs, cared for them while they recovered, and helped find them loving new homes once they were healthy again. These experiences have taught me how important it is to be patient, gentle and attentive to every animal’s individual needs. I currently have two beautiful dogs back home in South Africa who I absolutely adore and miss terribly. Since living in the UK, I’ve also lived with friends who have had both dogs and cats. Even though we no longer live together, I’m still the person they call when they go away because they know their pets are in safe, loving and trusted hands. I’m offering my pet-sitting and dog-walking services primarily because I genuinely miss having animals around me. This isn’t something I’m doing simply as a way to make extra money, it’s something I’d love to do out of love, compassion and my genuine enjoyment of being around animals. Caring for other people’s pets gives me the opportunity to have that connection with animals again while giving owners complete peace of mind. When I look after an animal, I want to know everything that makes them them. I always make sure I understand their routine, dietary requirements, any health conditions or medication, which vet they’re registered with, how they are around other animals, whether they’re comfortable off lead, what their recall is like, their favourite toy and, most importantly, their favourite spot for a good scratch! 🐶🐱 I also keep owners updated while they’re away. I’ll happily send regular messages, photos and videos so you can see how your furry baby is doing and know they’re happy, settled and being well cared for. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some company during the day, a drop-in visit, or someone to care for them while you’re away, I’d love to help. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved and cared for, while giving you the reassurance that your precious fur baby is in good hands. Your pets are part of your family, and I’ll treat them like they’re part of mine. 🐾❤️ I work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays, and I’m very flexible at weekends, which means I can give your pet plenty of company, attention and care throughout the day. My home is pet-friendly and set up to make your pet feel comfortable. I have a secure, fenced patio on the first floor, with direct access from my home. For dogs, there is a dedicated piece of artificial turf on the patio to encourage them to use the space when needed. This is thoroughly cleaned between pets. I’m also surrounded by lovely parks and walking spots, so dogs staying with me can enjoy plenty of fresh air, exercise and enrichment, depending on their usual routine and needs. For indoor cats, I have secure windows that can be latched safely, with accessible windowsills where they can relax, watch the world go by and enjoy the view. 🐱 In the evenings, I’m happy to spend time playing, giving cuddles and attention, or simply creating a calm and relaxing environment where your pet can settle down and feel at home. I’m very happy to work around your pet’s normal routine wherever possible, I know that keeping things familiar can make all the difference when they’re away from home. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my priority. Before their stay or visit, I like to understand their normal routine, personality, dietary requirements, health needs, behaviour around other animals and anything else that helps them feel comfortable and secure. In my own home, I provide a calm and welcoming environment where pets can settle in at their own pace. My patio is securely fenced, and I always make sure doors, windows and access points are secure. Dogs can use the patio when needed, with artificial turf that is thoroughly cleaned between pets, as well as enjoying walks at nearby parks. For cats, I make sure windows are securely latched and that they have safe spaces to relax, including accessible windowsills where they can watch the world outside. I’m also very conscious that every pet is different. I’ll never force interaction, introduce them to other animals without your knowledge, or change their routine unnecessarily. I follow your instructions carefully and give pets the right balance of exercise, play, affection, rest and personal space. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat their home and belongings with the same respect I would my own. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible and make sure they are comfortable, safe and never left without appropriate care. I’ll also keep you updated with regular messages, photos and videos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe and being looked after with genuine care. ❤️

Emma was fantastic! Bubs had his play time, cuddles and belly rubs. I got updated with videos and piccies (I still think you should do cat portraits 🤭). If he peed or pooed, how much he ate. Even got a bit of hallway time. Thanks so much for loving my boy and making me feel at ease leaving him. Even though I was counting down the days till I was back home again. 😂 He loved all the fuss. 🥰

Jo is such a lovely kind lady and I’m so glad she was able to feed my cats and rats while I went away. She came round to introduce herself and my cats really liked her. 100% recommend and I’ll definitely be hiring her again when I next go away. It can often be tough leaving your pets especially when hiring someone you don’t know but I had complete trust and confidence in Jo once we’d met Thank you so much Jo! Xx

I had such a positive experience with Kara looking after Milo and Mila while I was away to celebratemy birthday. From the beginning, I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care, and it was lovely to see how quickly they both took to her. Kara kept me updated every day with messages and photos, which was incredibly reassuring while I was away. I could see from the updates that Milo and Mila were relaxed and comfortable with her. I’ve returned home to two very happy and content cats, with no changes in their usual behaviour — apart from being very happy to have their mum home! 😻❤️ My home was also left clean and well looked after. Kara was reliable, caring and very communicative throughout, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Milo and Mila again. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can feel confident leaving their pets with. Thank you, Kara! 🐾❤️

Aislinn was exceptional! Totally reliable and consistent with caring for my kitten Kondi. We were gone for a week and she came to check on him, feed him, clean the litter and make sure he had enough play EVERY DAY! After one day of checking the ring cameras, we never felt we had to check them again. Will 100% be using her again in the future. Thanks again ❤️

FAQs for Pet Sitting – Croydon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Croydon on Rover is £16 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £12 and £26 per Visit.

sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 25,331 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across the city of Croydon. About 84% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.

Yes. There are up to 25,331 pet sitters offering care in and around Croydon. To find a sitter who is available during your working hours, enter your address, select the days and time slots when you need care, and review matching local profiles.

Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.

You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.

Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.

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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
