About: I offer loving, experienced dog boarding in a safe and comfortable home environment. I’ve had two dogs of my own and have cared for many other dogs over the years, for both short and long stays. Dogs in my care are treated like family, with plenty of attention, routine, and affection. I understand how important it is to trust who looks after your dog, and I make sure every dog feels relaxed, secure, and at home while you’re away. I work full time during the week and am available for dog boarding and care over the weekends. This allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, care, and quality time in a calm home environment. I have a Minature labradoodle called Lola. She can be playful when there is a ball.. but she is unbothered by other dogs so gives them the space to settle and will give them no trouble.
About: -patient, kind, just as playful! - mostly a fun play mate for chilli - you’ll get your dog back tired and ready for a long sleep 😂 I work from home so I will be available full time to entertain and ensure your pup is safe and secure and well looked after I live in a flat in a dog friendly estate with lots of parks around- there is lots of room in the flat for the dogs to room around
“Cannot thank Anya enough for helping take care of our two cats while we were away. They were very well cared for and we returned to two happy and content beans. Anya is warm, calm and professional and kept us well updated after each visit via a report card which really gave us peace of mind. We'd be more than happy to work with them again in the future.”
About: I have taken care of all size dogs for the 8 years of having my own pet. I have had overnight stays with both cats and dogs and have had nothing but great feedback. I have undergone a puppy training course at my university. I have experience working with any size dog and whether they are anxious or playful I promise your pets will have a wonderful time. I am at university during term time. And as long as I'm not in my lectures I am more than happy to help take care of your pets,. I have a high fenced garden and will ensure all doors are sealed shut so that they are safe in their surroundings at all times.
About: Experienced and trusted in pet sitting, confident with different breeds, temperaments, and routines. I will always treat your angel like my own and spoil them with care ❤️ Currently a personal trainer who is mainly busy past 3pm, with Fridays very flexable. I am most flexible mornings/afternoons with opportunities for late checks after 10pm. Weekends allow me more flexibility. I will treat your pets like my own giving them the care you’re looking for. Providing fuss to them, making sure they are happy and respecting their and your environment.
“Tasha did a fantastic job of looking after Panther & Rogue. She was updating me regularly; asked my preferences on different topics eg when the weather changed and got cold what temperature I preferred to have for my cats & how to change the heating; & sent videos & photos as per my requests. Would definitely recommend Tasha & choose her again. Xx”
“Magda has been an absolute gem these few days while i have been away, making sure my cats are fed and watered and looked after, but she made me feel like she was genuinely caring for them during her visits with pictures and videos, my little Jasper even took a little nap on her arm! He looked so comfortable, a little quality time. And that makes me happier than anything, the boys were very clearly comfortable and happy with her company, and that means the world. Would absolutely recommend Magda to friends and I definitely would love her to take care of them again if i'm away. Thank you <3”
“From start to finish Hanna has been wonderful, friendly, quick responses & attentive to my preferences while I was away. She did a fantastic job of caring for my x2 kitties, who are quite scared normally. Thank you Hanna 💜”
About: I love animals but since I can’t have them full time I compensate it by cat sitting for friend and neighbours. I don’t force an animal to anything and take time to for the cat/dog to get used to it and build my connection. I follow the owner instruction to a T and make sure the place is kept clean. I work full time therefore I won’t be able to accept it all the assignments but I do make it work so far with friends. I usually take care of the pets in their own home not to give them more stress. I tent to stay in their house and also keep an eye on the premises.

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.
“Zoë was absolutely brilliant with Jay. He was nervous as I rarely leave him but Zoë found an approach to him, he relaxed and felt so much better then when I was leaving. Will be back to Zoë!”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was born and love any opportunity to look after them. I spent the last 10 years living and sleeping with my family spaniel, however I have now moved out and I am sorely missing the company. I work from home, with a super flexible schedule and no ridge times I need to be adhering to. I would love the opportunity for dog walking or dog sitting. My job isn’t very intense so I have plenty of time to entertain if you would me to have your dog for the day. I also have the flexibility to work from different locations if you would prefer sitting in your own home. I live in a flat but only one floor up and spend as much time outdoors as possible. I have plenty of green around me and big parks for playing in.
“Risca was fantastic. Great communication throughout, lots of reassuring photos, and she followed my instructions perfectly. She looked after my cat like her own and even flagged a couple of house safety concerns. Really nice, trustworthy person, I would 100% book again.”
About: Friends, neighbours and family have all counted on me to look after their pets. I have bathed, walked, pet sat, fed the pets that I have cared for. The care I have provided includes dog-walking. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I have plenty of free time to burn and have a blast with your cute pets! I am available in the morning & afternoon, but I'm flexible and can accommodate mornings and evenings too. If they have any specific needs/anything that I need to be aware about e.g. doesn't like traffic, other dogs etc. Also if you have any specific rules for your dog such as not being allowed on furniture or no treats during the day.
About: I work from home in marketing, only in the office Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’m available most weekdays and weekends. I enjoy long walks and staying active. I have a Labrador who lives with my parents, so won’t be joining, but I’m very used to caring for dogs and cats I work from home Monday to Friday, with a flexible schedule that gives me 1–2 hours each day for walks, visits, and spending time with pets. I’m also available on weekends. I’m in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but can still offer care around those days. I sometimes sit with my partner Hannah (24), who also works from home and helps out, so there’s often extra attention and support for your pet. I don’t typically offer dog boarding as a service, but I will occasionally consider it for dogs I already know and am familiar with. This helps ensure the dog is comfortable, settled, and a good fit for my home environment. In these cases, they would be cared for in a calm family home with access to a secure garden and alongside my very friendly, low-energy Labrador Retriever, where appropriate
“Kirsten was amazing! We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with her & Muddy loved the company. Kirsten kept in contact through the visit and sent us lots of pictures to update us. We’re so grateful for the last min help. Thank you Kirsten :)”

Tasha was great looking after our two cats. She sent updates after each visit with photos and videos so we knew they were doing well. Tasha won round our shy cat Nora, who came out of her hiding spot for strokes. We'd definitely recommend Tasha and would book her again.
Jude has been fantastic! Our little cat is quite shy at first, but she really bonded with Jude. She made sure our cat was well cared for, giving her plenty of playtime and cuddles. Communication was always smooth and she sent daily updates so we could feel reassured that our furry friend was doing great. I would recommend her 100%.
Magda has been amazing! She has kept us informed after each visit by leaving photos and detailed reports, which were so lovely to see whilst we were away and missing our kitties. She took such great care of our two cats and showed genuine interest in them. She spent time with them, playing with them and cuddling them not just feeding and cleaning litter trays. We are so grateful and will definitely be asking Magda to look after our girls again. Thank you Magda!
It was my first time using Rover and directly found a great cat sitter, Claudine was very lovely and our cat felt comfortable with her right away. Despite a slight mishap with her car, she still managed to look after the cat and keep track of her visits. Ruby was very well fed and looked after, definitely will be booking Claudine again.
We are delighted with how well our two cats were looked after whilst we were away for 10 days. We received daily photos and videos with a detailed written update of their welfare during the drop in visits. Thank you for putting our minds at rest 😊 We will definitely be returning customers.
