A lovely lady who is quite at home with dogs. My dog will give an over enthusiastic welcome but can then be a little shy, but she settled down very quickly with Clare, who settled her with a pull toy. I would highly recommend.

Thank you for housesitting for Peggy and Charlie. We came home to calm, happy pets and home and would highly recommend Anya. She bonded with our cat and dog, took note of their routines and kept us updated throughout. She is easy to communicate with and arrived punctually. In summary we are very comfortable trusting her to house sit and have already made a future booking. Thanks again Anya 😊

I can’t recommend Corina enough. She treated my frenchies with so much love and care. I felt completely at ease the whole time thanks to her updates. My pups were calm, content, and clearly very well looked after. Corina is everything you want in a sitter — reliable, kind, and genuinely passionate about animals. I would defiantly book her again (if she wants to put up with my mad frenchies again😂) Thank you Corina

We were really happy with the care Roslyn gave. She knows exactly how to handle our Chow Chow, and we could tell he was very comfortable with her. She also kept the house spotless, which is very important to us and we really appreciate it. She even left our dog clean and happy. We would definitely recommend her and would be glad to have her help again! 🐾 🦁

Our dog Pippa had a great time with Kezia when she came to dog sit for us. Kezia is very friendly and easy to work with, and Pippa was very at ease with her which made us feel reassured. Would definitely recommend.

Thomas and Zoe are fantastic sitters! We have two big, stubborn doggies including a rescue and they were both very happy when we returned, our apartment was well taken care of too. They are great communicators which is very important to us, and we were kept updated with lovely pictures- all of our dog’s routines were kept to perfectly. They were flexible through some changes in plans and we will definitely be using them again. We are grateful we found such trustworthy people!

About: I have an extensive history of working with dogs. I have owned working therapy dogs and have been working at a dog sanctuary for the past 2 years, handling dogs from all walks of life and all sizes. Dogs give so much love voluntarily and deserve that back. I insist dogs are walked for a good few mikes daily unless medically incapable. I will ensure they are fed to your specification and will follow any behavioural instructions you may have in place to ensure continuity. I am open to any questions you may have or to alleviate any concerns you may have. I am freely available for any pet care needs all I ask is for the advanced notice stated. I also have to collect my son from school on a Wednesday and every other Friday so the dog would need to be ok for a short period of time alone. I have a gated garden and a big field and woods near by. I can crate your dog if required. I am flexible and will work around your needs. If boarding, then dog/cat would need to be dropped and collected from my property.

We felt secure in the knowledge that Kirsten was looking after both our house and our dogs. Both of our dogs took to Kirsten straight away and were relaxed in her company despite one of the dogs being generally uneasy around unknown people. The dogs were feed, watered, walked and by the look of the photos hade a really good time. Would I recommend Kirsten, yes 100%.

About: Hi! Though new to Rover, I am a lifelong dog lover with a solid background in dog care, known for my affection, reliability and attention to detail. I’m committed to earning your trust while providing your furry friend with the exceptional care they deserve. I grew up in a family that has always loved and cared for dogs. Being around them has been a big part of my life and I truly enjoy their company. I’m genuinely passionate about these companions and over the years I’ve provided care for pets belonging to friends, family and local clients. For me, it’s all about making every furry friend feel safe, loved and happy. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to your pet, giving them lots of attention, love and playtime. This also allows me to be fully present and responsive to their needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable and loved. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, feeding times, walks, playtime and any special instructions like medications or preferred sleeping spots. I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection and stimulation throughout the day. I treat every pet like they were my own, with patience, kindness and care.

Katie did an amazing job looking after our pets! She communicated ahead of time to understand their needs and idiosyncrasies and we really felt she would care for our pets and not just keep an eye on them. She was fantastic at keeping us updated about what was going on while we were away and we could tell they were having a good time in her company. Would definitely trust her to look afte them again next time we go away!

We had a great experience using Rover and would happily recommend Ashleigh. She was friendly, confident, and immediately put us at ease. She came prepared with her DBS certificate, asked lots of thoughtful questions about our dog, and clearly cared about making sure he was comfortable. Throughout the stay she sent updates and photos, which was really reassuring. When we arrived home, our dog was calm, relaxed, and clearly very settled. We’ll definitely be using Ashleigh again in the future. was our first time using Rover and

I couldn’t thank Zsanett enough! My first time leaving my little pup alone, and Zsanett came over and broke up the day, so she wasn’t on her own for a long period of time! Brilliant service! Will definitely book again!
