About: I've always loved dogs and have hands-on experience caring for two French Bulldogs. Although they have now are back home to my family, caring for them taught me a lot about daily walks, feeding, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and love they need. I'm reliable, patient, and currently have a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of care and companionship for your pet. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I'll treat your dog like one of my own. I live in a pet-friendly area with great places for walks, and I enjoy spending time outdoors. Your dog's safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away. I am home full-time, so I have plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. I can easily adapt to your pet's routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, fresh water, and meals according to their routine. I carefully follow any instructions you provide, including medication, feeding schedules, and special care needs. I treat every pet with kindness and patience and will keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Jenni was AMAZING with our cats and our home and we could not be more pleased. Trusting someone new with your cats is always nerve wrecking but Jenni gave us regular updates, kept the house tidy, and was a real pleasure getting to know. And she did it all during a heatwave! She went above and beyond and we would not hesitate to recommend her to others. The cats will surely be happy whenever they get the chance to see her again.”

“Charmy was a wonderful dog sitter and a true companion for my little Maltipoo dog. She sent a photo with updates whenever asked, and I felt completely at ease with her skillful approach to keeping my dog calm and happy. 100% recommended to anyone looking for a friendly and trustworthy dog sitter!”

“I cannot recommend Piraveen highly enough. He looked after my dog while I was away on holiday, and I returned home to a very happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for dog. Communication was excellent throughout my trip, with regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. It was clear that my dog received plenty of love, attention, and care, and that my dog was treated as part of the family rather than just a pet. Piraveen was reliable, kind, and incredibly attentive to my dog's needs and routine. Knowing that my dog was in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my holiday without any worries. Thank you so much, Piraveen, for everything you did. I would not hesitate to book with you again in the future and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dedicated dog sitter.”


About: I am a dedicated animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs and helping them stay active and healthy. I am reliable, patient, and attentive, with a strong commitment to providing safe and enjoyable walks. I take pride in treating every dog with kindness and care, and I am eager to build trust with both pets and their owners through dependable service and a positive attitude. I currently work part time as a housekeeper I can be flexible and work from whatever time so give me a message and call and can arrange for your convenience. I have a dog myself named Leo. He’s a golden retriever of 3 years old and I live in a house with a small garden.
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by dogs of all ages and breeds. I grew up from the age of 3 with a black labrador who I looked after for 13 years. I have also been around many rescue dogs such as 7 ex racer greyhounds of varying temperaments and ages. I have aided in the training of puppies including the basic training of a shin tzu and the crate training and basic training of a jack russell cross. At the age of 17, I completed work experience as a dog grooming assistant, teaching me about the varying coats of breeds as well as more on behaviour of breeds and noticing conditions such as fleas, worms, tics and matting. Since coming to university I have volunteered as a dog walker and pet sitter for dogs in my area and am well accustomed to meeting all types of dogs (rescues, seniors, youths, nervous, energetic, etc). I am currently a university student so will have plenty of time to look after and spend time with your pup! I am available at weekends for boarding and every weekday evening. I am also available during the day all day over summer break! I have a secure house with a garden so no need to worry if your dog is an escape artist! When leaving the house for walks, dogs will remain secured on lead to keep them safe (unless owners specify their dog has mastered recall and are confident with others taking their dogs off leash for walks).
About: I have lived with cats and dogs all my life. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats that I live with from an 11 year old cat and 1 year old cat, to a large lab-Shepard puppy and 8 year old Pomeranian. So all ages, size and breeds, I am well adapted. I am currently studying on a self taught course. My schedule is pretty flexible and can often do same day bookings if required. From dog walk, to house check up on the animals and keeping them entertained for a little bit part of the day. Allowing them to go the toilet , socialize with a walk if required. I have experience with large and small dogs. I can offer service to house sit or let the animals out for a toilet break. If required offering a short walk to stretch some legs.

About: I'm an active, outdoorsy person who genuinely loves being around dogs. I take your dog's exercise seriously: proper walks, real time outside, and plenty of stimulation. My hands-on experience comes from regularly walking and caring for two very different dogs — a Staffordshire Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I’m currently working from home with good flexibility. I can work around the schedule for helping out. Weekends should be free in the day too. My flat is a cosy, well-kept one-bedroom on an upper floor — no balcony or outdoor space, but we’re just a 5-minute walk from a park, so dogs get outside plenty. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the flat, which is worth knowing for smaller or older dogs.
About: I’ve always been around dogs whether that is puppies or fully grown and grew up with dogs of various breeds and sizes. Frenchies, balmastiffs, XL bullies, the lot! I do have a full time job, however I do have some flexibility depending on my shifts evenings/mornings. I am fully available on the weekends to be able to go for walkies and play days with your doggie. I have a good sized fenced garden and a lovable, playful dog to keep yours company with plenty of toys to go around. I can accommodate to your dogs usual routine of morning/evening walks and feedings- what ever will make them happiest.

About: I have a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management where I achieved the highest possible grade of triple Distinction*. This diploma gave me two years of experience caring for and training all types of animals. I also have work experience in various dog groomers, doggy daycare, a vet practice, and city farms. I also volunteer at university as a dog walker for elderly/disabled people. I've had both dogs and cats for my whole life and care greatly about their welfare! I am also studying bioveterinary science at university where I have done projects focusing on animal welfare. I am currently a student who is on summer break until October with no prior commitments so have plenty of free time to care for, play with, and walk your pets! I will host pets safely in their home by following their routine, pet-proofing the space, monitoring their health, and communicating daily with the owner.

I am very confident handling pets of different personalities and needs, including dogs with separation anxiety. I genuinely enjoy working with animals and take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

I am also available throughout all school term holidays, so if you are looking for a full-time pet sitter during these periods, please feel free to get in touch. In addition, I am open to last-minute weekend bookings where possible. With owner permission, I also love taking dogs out for enriching walks to places such as local parks or forests to ensure they are happy, stimulated, and enjoying their time while in my care. I have a fenced garden with plenty of space for pets to safely roam and enjoy themselves. I also have a female, friendly Shih Tzu named Paris, who is very sociable with other dogs and is also comfortable around cats, as she has lived alongside my two tabby cats. My cats are generally independent and often spend time outdoors in the neighbourhood or relaxing in their own space indoors, so visiting pets are able to have a calm and low-stress environment. I always ensure any pets in my care are introduced slowly and safely where needed, and I prioritise their comfort and wellbeing at all times.

Susanna has become our go to sitter when we are planning holidays. She’s so great with animals and leaves house spotless. She’s great at following instructions and made sure animals are all pampered with frozen treats throughout the heatwave. I can’t recommend her enough as it is so difficult to find someone you can truly trust on the app, it makes leaving our beloved pets so much easier.

Heqing is an awesome pet sitter. She stayed at my house and took care of Charlie, my other dog and cats and administered medication and kept to food and exercise times as requested. Heqing asked insightful questions about Charlie’s medical requirements and had obviously looked up his condition before she came to do a meet and greet. She is punctual, reliable and kept in touch throughout the time I was away. I have complete confidence in recommending her as a pet sitter and will absolutely have her back to look after my floofs when I’m away again.
Sherry was absolutely fantastic! She took such wonderful care of our fur babies, and it was so reassuring knowing they were in such safe and loving hands while we were away. We came home to two very happy pets and a spotless home, which was such a lovely surprise after travelling. It was clear that Sherry treated both our animals and our home with genuine care and respect. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you so much, Sherry!

Shelby was an absolute star and so lovely looking after our dog Rosie and even went the extra mile in keeping our house clean and watering our plants during the extreme hot weather. We received such lovely photos whilst away on vacation and kept in touch throughout. Such a kind , gentle individual and would recommend her 100% to anyone with animal babies ☺️☺️ We would defitnetly like to be using her in the future, well above a 5 star rating!!

Jenni was AMAZING with our cats and our home and we could not be more pleased. Trusting someone new with your cats is always nerve wrecking but Jenni gave us regular updates, kept the house tidy, and was a real pleasure getting to know. And she did it all during a heatwave! She went above and beyond and we would not hesitate to recommend her to others. The cats will surely be happy whenever they get the chance to see her again.

Klaudia was amazing. I made a mistake on the booking by half an hour and she very kindly accommodated us. Klaudia was calm and patient with Coco and took the time to understand her needs. She followed Coco’s routine down to the T. Was very happy and felt that Coco was in good hands. Klaudia was in our house and we felt she was very trustworthy and made us feel comfortable so we were able to enjoy our night out. Would definitely recommend and rebook Klaudia again.

⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Best Dog Sitter Ever! I can’t say enough good things about Ronnie He treated my dog like family and cared for him exactly the way I would.

When I came home my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust — we’ll definitely be booking again. Appreciate you!!

Adina was amazing! She stepped in at the very last minute to dog sit my puppy and was an absolute lifesaver. Super responsive, punctual, and caring. Hugo adored her.

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 Dagenham 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 Dagenham 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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise

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.
