“A huge thank you Shelby! Mabel had a lovely time with you she was so excited to see you that's what I wanted to see mabel connect 🤗 I missed her but I didn't worry because I knew she was in capable hands. You are a lovely person animals know 🐶 ❤️ Mabel x”


“This week Josh and Mosco had their first few days together. Mosco seems to have had a great time and was his usual chill, happy self when we got back. Josh was great, kept in touch in the run up and during the sit. Took care of the flat really well and hopefully enjoyed his time with Mosco. We will definitely be asking Josh for his time again.”


“Dog Sitting (Clients Home) Booked Kate at short notice - despite an early start, Kate was very accommodating Kate asked all the right questions re medical history, food and walk routine and provided regular updates via WhatsApp which was lovely to receive and reassurance that my dogs were happy and being well looked after. Can be trusted in the home and with a key. DD, Roxy (and their family) were very happy with the service. Highly recommend and would use again. Thank you”


“Adina is a lovely person, trustworthy and professional All my pet were around her the moment she walked in to my house, normally the run away and hide but not with Adina! I definitely use her services again in the future Thank you”


About: I grew up around cats, I currently have two of my own, with all care dependant on me. I also used to help my sister walk dogs too (using Rover!) I am able to administer medication like tablets to small breeds but larger breeds may take some getting used to. I am currently in university so pet care is a very ideal option for me, as I still have a lot of availability. I love animals so this is a perfect opportunity. I am fully available on Thursdays, Fridays and weekends and afternoon onwards on Mondays and Wednesdays. We can put any safety steps that you would like me to do, into place, whether that involves using crates, keeping windows/doors closed, etc… if your pet is wary of strangers, I’m more than willing to take the time to build trust with them.

“With such short notice Jessica provided an amazing service. She arrived on time and had no issues bonding with Koby and keeping him entertained while I was away, and even spending some training time with him. Definitely looking forward to booking again!”


About: My sister has a dog that I take care of regularly. He is a Malshi (Maltese shih tzu mix) and he is now 13 years old! I have trimmed his fur and bathed him multiple times over the years. I take him for walks, to the park and to pick up my nieces from school. I also grew up with a Great Dane. He was my neighbours dog and I used to take him for walks all the time. I work remotely during the week so I can be flexible. I can easily house/pet sit. I am happy to discuss a schedule that suits everyone best I have two cats of my own. I make sure the litter box is always clean and the litter is replaced every few days. There is always fresh water available as well as dry food to graze on throughout the day and wet food pouches given twice daily.

“Bertie had such a wonderful time with Nicole. Lots of cuddles, playtimes and walks. Nicole kept me updated frequently and we have already rebooked again. I cannot recommend Nicole enough, she’s absolutely lovely!”


“Ruth's nature calms me! So knowing Mabel is going to have a lovely time let's me go about my day with peace of mind. And of course Mabel is Ruth's biggest puppy 🐶 fan ❤️🐕 Many thanks from us both Ruth 🐾😁”


About: I’m a home Therapist, I provide Couples Counseling and CBT Therapy. And I do it from the comfort of my house, so I can stay with your pet whenever you’d like, or I can walk him from a walking distance from mine. I’m a certified Dog trainer from @DOGGA. And I also train cats when in need. I love all the tail wagging and cuddles from felines. I’m here to make not only make their day better but yours also. Heads up! As adorable as they are, I don’t accept brachycephalic or lab-made/designer breeds (like Frenchies or English Bulldogs). Their special care goes beyond what I offer. Appreciate your understanding ❤️🐶. See you soon. I work from home, on my own company. I can take breaks and days off as much as I need as I have a full team working on our projects. Mainly I’m available all the time. We have a full bricked garden on the back with some cost space for a pet to stretch the legs, and even a bigger park on the back of the house, I still have loads of toys from my dog, and after we go on a walk I always tend to wash up the paws with a paw washer and wipe the fur if they decided to go crazy in the grass.

“Teresa was amazing from start to finish. She sent regular pictures and videos of Teddy to keep us in the loop of our Teddy was getting on. Definitely recommended Teresa to anyone, we will be using her again! Thank you xx”


About: l What sets me apart is my commitment to providing safe, informed, and loving care. I am DBS checked, fully insured, and qualified in canine first aid, so you can feel confident that your dog is in capable hands. I’m also currently studying Level 2 Canine Health and Welfare, which allows me to stay up to date with best practices in dog care and wellbeing. I offer evening and weekend dog walks, as well as in-home sitting services tailored to your dog’s unique routine and personality. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. As someone who works a Monday to Friday 9–5 office job, I’ve structured my pet care services around the times I’m genuinely available and fully focused. I offer evening walks during the weekdays—perfect for dogs who need to stretch their legs and get some attention after their owner’s workday—and in-home sitting and care on weekends, when I can devote my full time and energy to your pet. My routine is consistent, so you can count on me to show up reliably and provide the same level of care every time. Ensuring the safety and well-being of your pet is my top priority, whether we’re out on a walk or during in-home sitting. Before we start, I require all clients to complete detailed onboarding forms, which help me understand your dog’s unique habits, preferences, medical needs, and any special instructions. This thorough preparation allows me to tailor my care to your pet’s specific needs and avoid any risks. I stay vigilant and attentive during every walk and visit, maintaining open communication with you so you always feel informed and confident that your furry friend is safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: At Fluffy Floofs, your dog’s happiness, safety, and well-being come first. I'm Rosie, a lifelong dog lover turned professional dog walker & sitter. I’m certified by the Modern Dog Walkers Association (MDWA) & trained in Canine First Aid. Whether it’s a fun-filled walk, drop-in visits, home boarding or tailored care for your pup’s unique needs, I treat every dog like one of my own. I’ve completed various specialist courses, and I’m always learning new ways to support your furry best friend. Based locally, fully insured & DBS checked, I offer a friendly, flexible, and professional service that’s built on trust, love, and a whole lot of tail wags. 🐶 I work part time from home, so I’m available to give your furry bestie attention and supervision all day. I start each day with a morning walk and breakfast for the floofs in my care. Throughout the day, I offer plenty of playtime, training, toileting, and quiet time depending on each pet’s energy level and preferences. In the evenings, we wind down with a gentle walk and some cuddle time. On weekends, I love taking dogs to local parks or trails for extra exercise and enrichment. I also do weekly grooming checks—brushing, nail trims, and ear cleaning if requested. Whether your pet is high-energy or prefers a calm environment, I tailor my routine to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of space to play and relax. Daily routines include morning walks, regular toileting in my fully fenced garden, feeding on schedule, and lots of playtime and cuddles. I maintain a calm atmosphere and follow any specific instructions you provide, including dietary needs or medication schedules. I also offer enrichment activities like puzzle toys, basic training reinforcement, and socialization (if appropriate) with my 2 friendly floofs. Your pet will have access to cozy sleeping areas and supervised outdoor time. When caring for pets in your home, I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or administering medication. I respect your space and ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away. I will also provide updates with photos and notes so you know how your pet is doing. For house sitting, I maintain your home’s security and cleanliness, and I’m happy to take care of small tasks like bringing in mail or watering plants. I’m a proud registered member of the Modern Dog Walkers Association (MDWA), and I’ve completed their Professional Dog Walkers Course, including passing the assessment. I’m also trained in Canine First Aid, so your pup is in safe hands in case of emergencies. In addition, I’ve completed several basic dog training courses, including loose lead walking and recall masterclasses. I’d be more than happy to incorporate these skills into our walks if that’s something you’d find helpful! 🐾 I’m fully insured and DBS checked, so you can feel confident that your pet—and your home—are in safe, trustworthy hands. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by every kind of furry friend you can imagine; big dogs, tiny pups, kittens, cats, you name it. I absolutely adore them all and know exactly how to give each pet the love, care, and attention they deserve. With me, your pets won’t just be looked after, they’ll be treated like family, spoiled with cuddles and fun until you’re back. If you want someone who genuinely loves animals and knows how to keep them happy and safe, I’m your go-to! Though I work full-time in recruitment during the weekdays, I’m free most evenings and weekends, which means I can give your pets plenty of quality attention and care outside of typical work hours. Whether it’s evening walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m flexible and dedicated to fitting pet care smoothly into my routine so your furry friends never feel lonely or neglected. I provide loving, personalised care by looking after pets in their own home, giving them the comfort and routine they’re used to without any added stress. Since I’m only available for in-home care, I make sure to follow your pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles. Being in their familiar environment helps pets feel safe and happy, and I’m always there to give them the attention and love they deserve while you’re away.

“Georgina is fantastic. She spent all evening with our dogs making sure they fed and happy while we were at a concert, even staying until we arrived back home (very late!) from a nightmare journey back. Best dog sitter ever 🐶🐶”


About: I had dogs from the age of 13 to 28 and now I'm just a dog owner without the dog. I picked up lots of training and discipline tips across my time with dogs and generally get on very well with all dogs. I'm happy to give lots of attention to needy dogs or lots of space to nervous ones. I also have a guinea pig but they won't be crossing paths. I work from home 4 days a week with very flexible hours so can give lots of attention and walks if need be. Happy to do morning/lunch time or evening walks. Weekends are a bit more unpredictable but I'm often free at least one day. I've got a secure flat where dogs inclined at making mad dashes for freedom will be met with just another door. Other wise it's a comfy and safe environment and I've had no issues looking after family or friends dogs. I also have a balcony where my mum's dog likes to sunbathe and watch the world go by

About: I was an au pair in Australia looking after three kids and three dogs, two toy poodles and one regular sized poodle, the large poodle had issues with other dogs so learnt how to deal with that. Was the main care giver for them during the week and made sure they were fed,walked and happy. I have since cat sat for a number of friends who have gone abroad, from 4 days up to 3 months. I work from home full time, my housemate has a dog so he is home with me during the day. My work is very flexible so I can go for walks at anytime during the day when I don't have a meeting. I do have to go into the office on certain days during the month but I will inform you if you visit coincides with one of these days. I have a small fenced backyard so am able to let the dogs our into the back for a run around, I also live a short walk from the forest which I love to go walk around. I'm happy to have dogs/cats in my room if they are more comfortable sleeping with someone or happy to set up a crate if this is better for the dog.

About: Hi, I’m Ellie-May, I’m available on weekdays and weekends in the daytime for dog walking and doggy day care. I am also available for animal boarding whenever needed. I really love spending time with dogs and cats and have experience in taking care of them. I have a chihuahua and a cat currently and have had experience with dogs and cats all my life. I have experience with small, medium and large breeds. Young, adults and senior. I’ve got children at home so I need animals that are good with kids and have good temperments. I’ve got a massive garden that the dogs can use and will keep them entertained with effection and exercise and will treat each and every animal like i would my own. I take my son and pup to the park every day so would bring your pup along with your permission. I have a massive garden which is secured and plenty of room to run around. 🏐🥏 Each pet will be welcomed with clean bed, bowls and toys to play with while they are in my care. If pup is crate trained please let me know so I can provide a cage. ✨️ Each pet will also be sent home with a goodie bag and pictures of their stay ( with your permission of course). 🙂 I will be looking forward to meeting you all 👋 I'm currently not work as I'm on maternity raising my son. I'm home most of the time and go on daily walks so would be ideal for your little ones. I have a lot of time to take care of your animals like my own. I have a massive garden that's all fenced off and a friendly dog and cat that can keep your animals company. I can crate your dog at bed time if needed but will free roam in the day. I can take your dogs on walks round the neighbourhood, park or forest and give them all the attention they deserve.

José G.Star Sitter
“Well I was the first me that gave the idea to Jose to join Rover as I used to be a user before but as Jose had a dog as well I always asked for him to take mine on a walk. I have a German Sheppard, I never trained the dog but Jose had some training with a person from the neighborhood in the park and after that day he applied it on my dog, now he doesn’t bark when people ring the door, he doesn’t pull the lead anymore, and Jose stills takes him from walks despite have loosing his dog couple of months back. He an angel with pets.”

Lauren B.
“I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Lauren and her dog walking/sitting. My dog Buddy isn’t always the easiest, he’s full of energy and pretty stubborn, but she handles him like a total pro. The first time she took him out, he returned happier and calmer than I’ve seen him in a long time. What really sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares. She doesn’t just show up to check a box, she gives the dogs love and attention. I’ve had her dog sit Buddy a few times now, and every time I get back, it’s clear he’s been in good hands. I get regular updates, photos, and little notes about how he’s doing, which honestly gives me so much peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and who actually loves dogs, look no further. Buddy and I are both lucky we found her.”


Rosie D.
“While I was on holiday, this dog-walking service ensured that my big, lovable dog, Maia, got a walk every single day. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was well taken care of while I was away. Maya can be a handful because of her size. Rosie handled her with total confidence and genuine affection, and is clearly a dog lover. I received regular updates and photos that showed her happy, relaxed, and clearly loving every outing. It’s not easy to find someone both capable and caring, but Rosie checked every box. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!”


millie f.
“We are so lucky to have found Millie. She looks after our two sausage dogs, two bunnies, and two cats a couple of times a week when I can’t get home in time. She goes above and beyond every single visit walking the dogs, feeding everyone, tidying up, and making sure each animal gets plenty of love and attention. It’s such a relief knowing our furry family members are in such caring, capable hands. I always come home to happy, well looked after pets and a tidy space. Her reliability, kindness, and genuine love for animals really shine through.”


Georgina T.

“Georgina is fantastic. She spent all evening with our dogs making sure they fed and happy while we were at a concert, even staying until we arrived back home (very late!) from a nightmare journey back. Best dog sitter ever 🐶🐶”


Joseph B.
“Joe is a very trustworthy and loving dog sitter :) You can tell he grew up with dogs and can adjust according to individual dog characteristics. He’s probably the greatest ball-thrower I’ve ever seen and lives close to a lovely park for walkies. I’ve entrusted him with my dog before and felt very at ease! Would highly recommend booking him for daily walks or boarding longer term!”


Lara S.
“Lara has looked after my two cats on multiple occasions and is amazing! She loves animals and really looked after them. Will be using her again!”


Ellie T.
“Ellie looked after my dog while I was on holiday for 2 weeks . I had previously used kennels and my dog came out very withdrawn , but decided to try home sitters for pets . My dog came home exactly the same as when I left her , Ellie is a very nice friendly lady who my dog was very relaxed with she also came home with a little doggy bag with her photo in showing her playing which Ellie had already asked for permission to do so. Would always use Ellie for next holidays .”
