About: I have experience caring for my own cat and her kittens. I’m a caring and responsible person who loves animals and would always treat your pet with patience, kindness and attention. I work full-time, but I live with my mum, so there is almost always someone at home to keep your pet company. Also, I have two kids, they love animals I live in a detached house with a secure, fully fenced garden, providing a safe and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play and feel at home.

About: I have never done petsitting before but I have looked after my sisters dogs a few times so this will be a fun new experience! I have looked after dogs of friends/family a few times and wanted to try this out and gain some new experiences! I'm working part-time so It will be easy to look after your pets no problem! I'm available during the week and sometimes on weekends too. When I look after peoples pets, I make sure that I know about everything they might possibly need and know where all their stuff is.

“Luke recently house sat and looked after our pets for a week whilst we were abroad. At first I was a little nervous as have never used Rover before- we liked Luke’s profile and he was super responsive from the instant we reached out, despite being abroad himself at the time! He was empathetic and polite, warm and professional and answered all questions honestly. As we were entrusting our home to him, he was more than happy to come over to meet the dogs and see the house before we went ahead. He was punctual, polite, down to earth and clearly great with our two cockapoos! During the stay he sent regular updates & pics on WhatsApp and even offered to pick up a few supplies for us so we didn’t have an empty fridge to come back to! It gave us great peace of mind to have him house sit and I’d recommend him - we will be booking again!”

“Jessica so obviously loves pooches! Her updates made us feel relaxed about having left Ness for the first time. Will have no hesitation booking her again so we can go away in the knowledge our baby will be very well looked after and snuggled😍🐶”


About: I have looked after family pets since I was 15. They have relied on me to feed, fuss and walk their pets even on overnight stays. The services I provide are dog walking, and house visits which include activities such as walking your dog or dogs and playing games like fetch with them. House visits include playing, feeding, keeping them company and fuss. I am free anytime to pet sit and pet care fits into my routine as a number 1 priority. I take pet care very seriously and always plan around it. I am a full time dog walker and pet sitter who works from home. How I care for pets in the owners home is by keeping an eye on them but also trusting them because they are in their own home but I always make sure that the house is safe and secure.

About: I have always looked after animals since a young age. I have a family Springador who is now 9 years old and a 2 year old Cockapoo who is also a family dog (but do not live with me). I miss going on more regular dog walks so I am looking forward to meeting lots of new fur-friends! I love being outdoors and regularly go on walks - so why not exercise the dogs at the same time! I work from home so I enjoy getting out and about during the week and at weekends. I work from home 4 days a week and regularly go on walks either in the morning, at lunch or in the evening (depending on the weather). I am also around at weekends. I have a secure grass garden and hard floors downstairs. There is also space for a crate or dog bed and the house can be made dog-friendly when required.

“Zoe was amazing with my dog Ella. Within the first 5 minutes of the initial meet with Zoe for my dog, she put my mind at easy and made me feel remarkable comfortable and trusting with leaving my pooch with her. I Can not recommend Zoe enough. I have already rescheduled her for later in the year. 10/10 wouldn’t go with anyone else.”

About: I have loved dogs, cats and small furry friends since I was little. I have had a few different breeds of dogs myself, I now have a rottie called Hunter who makes my life eventful and fun every day! He is the friendliest big doggo you will ever meet and loves to think he’s a lap dog… I work full time but work from home most Wednesdays and every Thursday and Friday. Don’t work weekends so am flexible. When I’m working from home I always have the door open to our enclosed garden (except if it’s raining enough to build Noah’s ark) and have time to regularly check on dogs and they are also very welcome to chill next to me as I work away! I have a fenced large back garden. Hunter the very friendly beast (Rottie) who is a perfect play date so will keep your fur baby entertained to say the least and he loves other dogs.
About: My family own a fluffy little pomeranian, so I am well versed in how to deal with a dog who has bundles of energy and wants to play all of the time, but also has that stubborn streak! I have looked after cats for friends when they have been on holiday, so have experience following specific feeding schedules, playtime, and bedtime. I am currently a freelancer, so when house sitting, I will be able to be with your pet in the house for the whole day. I can provide general house sitting as well as drop in services. I am always happy to follow the schedule your pet is already comfortable with and offer lots of playtime and however many toilet breaks that are needed. Always happy to give lots of cuddles too (if they like to be cuddled!).
“Wow what a find Christine was! Was great before we went and absolutely fantastic while we were away. Sending daily update’s, be it a photo or video at least once a day. We were a little nervous to leave our fur babies as it’s the first time we have left them with anyone apart from our immediate family but wow would recommend Christine to anyone that needs your fur babies to be looked after in their own home. 5 stars 🌟 all the way.”

“I had a fantastic experience with Paulina from the very beginning, she was very friendly, reliable and clearly cared about making sure my dogs were happy and well looked after. It was a real peace of mind knowing 2 dachshunds were in such good hands over the 2 days. Communication was excellent and Paulina went above and beyond, even walked them both which was brilliant as I came home to 2 very happy and contented dogs and it was such a huge help for me as I was extremely exhausted! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Paulina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Paulina for being such a wonderful sitter!”

“Jiahui was fantastic! Riley is a difficult dog, but she managed to become his friend very quickly. He had a great time with her. I got lots of updates, pictures, so I had a very good time as well, knowing that Riley is in such good hands. Thank you very much, Jiahui and Rover Looking forward to our next meeting!”


About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my professional experience and knowledge as a full-time Veterinary Nurse. I qualified this year and have 3 years of hands on experience caring for animals. I’m confident looking after pets of all ages, from energetic young puppies and kittens who may need patience, consistency and basic training, to senior pets who require extra care, medication or support with age-related needs. With my full time job I would only be available to house sit/dog walk over the weekend or on a Wednesday. However, I would happily do pop in visits before or after work so would be available all week for this. When caring for pets in their own home environment I would focus on keeping their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible by respecting each pet’s personality and needs.
About: Hi! I’m Pavlína, a self-motivated and proactive pet sitter with years of experience living alongside cats and dogs. I understand that pets aren't just animals—they’re family. Whether I’m out for a long walk or providing calm company at home, I bring a positive, can-do energy to every booking. I spend my free time studying dog training and behavior, so I am well-prepared to handle different temperaments and needs with patience and care. I’m currently using Rover to get my "animal therapy" fix while providing reliable, high-quality care for local owners. I look forward to helping your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away! Both me and my partner are currently on a freelance work routine with flexible schedules, which makes us both ideal dogsitters for variety of walks and dogsitting throughout the week. I am happy to listen to any needs and any requirements you have when it comes to your pet. I am open and caring person and I treat the dog responsibly.
About: I have experience maintaining a pet’s routine to help them feel safe and secure, including regular exercise, playtime, and companionship. I’m attentive to signs of stress or illness and always prioritize a pet’s comfort and safety. I also understand the importance of keeping owners updated and following specific care instructions closely. I am currently mostly at home. Therefore, I have plenty of time to play with your loved furry friend and to prioritise his needs and safety. I always prioritise a pet’s safety, comfort, and routine, I live alone in a one bedroom apartment with a large balcony with hight walls and there are no kids or other dogs. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, habits, and any instructions provided so I can create a familiar and stress-free environment.
About: For the last couple of years I have taken care of a whippet regularly having her to stay for up to a fortnight and just loved it. As a child we had labradors and my sister worked in a rescue. We also love learning about dog behaviour and are avid watchers of dogs behaving badly and all things around dog psychology. As a psychotherapist this aspect interests me. Really happy to help people out by caring for their pets. I have a daughter so they would need to be ok with children but otherwise I am very adaptable. I work part time self employed so I am not out of the house for big stretches of time. The dog would come on both school runs and also an additional walk if necessary. I have a fenced garden and no dogs or cats myself. We are close to nature and have woods and a large football field nearby for exercising. I am happy to go to your house also.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Daventry
Volodymyr is an interesting man with a very calm personality which suited our energetic Staffy-Cross well. He gave us regular 'pupdates' and followed our instructions to the letter. He also left the house immaculately tidy (actually even tidier than he found it). Would certainly recommend his services.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Daventry is £35 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £29 and £68 per night.

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.
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 Daventry walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
House sitting is priced per night and generally includes an overnight stay. In the city of Daventry, the price of house sitting can vary between £29 and £68 per night.
Just make sure you and your sitter agree on the actual hours they'll stay in your home before you accept the booking. Each sitter has their own routine, and some might suit your schedule better than others. Keep your messages on the Rover app for future reference.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a 'home base' service. Most sitters in Daventry maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for 'WFH' sitters: Many sitters mention 'Work from Home' on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical 'away' windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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.

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.
