“What a great lady. Stacey came out to meet Willow a few days before sitting for us, and they instantly bonded. We hadnt used a dog sitter before, but she instantly put us at ease. On the day, she arrived early, and again Willow went straight to her, very happy to see her. Stacey took Willow on numerous walks throughout the day, and sent us loads of photos and updates throughout. We would not hesitate in recommending her for anyone, and will definately use her again the next time we need a sitter.”

“We had never used a pet-sitting service before and we were very worried about leaving our 2 dogs and 1 cat with people they had only met once. One of our dogs has extra needs as he has an autoimmune condition and had his front left leg amputated last October and he needs a bit of extra care. Anyway, we had a meet up and Zoe and Emily were really lovely and friendly and our dogs took to them very well. When it came to the day of leaving them we were still concerned about how the dogs would be, but it was great. The girls kept us updated on when they were popping out, when they were back, when they took the dogs for a walk and we got loads of photos every day. Zoe and Emily treated our home like their own, they kept everything clean and tidy, and even watered our garden. When we came home the whole house had been given a spring clean too. We would not hesitate to use Zoe and Emily again and we highly recommend them to others. Thank you Zoe and Emily, we will certainly be using you again x”

About: I provide reliable dog walking and overnight pet sitting focusing on calm, structured care, maintaining routines, and lots of love. I am available for early morning walks, evening walks, overnight stays, and flexible weekend care. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, including larger and energetic dogs, and I am confident following individual routines including feeding, medication, and structured care. I work best with dogs who are comfortable with a morning/evening routine rather than constant daytime supervision (7am–6pm weekdays not available due to existing work commitments). Regular updates and communication are always provided, and I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. Whether you need a reliable dog walker, cat sitter, or someone to check in on your pets while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I love long walks, cuddles with furry friends, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. I’m fully DBS-checked through my full-time role, and will bring the same professionalism, responsibility, and reliability to every pet I look after. At home, I have three cats of my own, and grown up with a variation of different dogs, from Dobermans to Jack Russels, so I completely understand how much your pets mean to you 💕 🕒 My Availability Before 7:30am: Quick morning walks or feeding visits Weekdays: House sitting available if pets are comfortable being left during working hours (approx 7:30am–5pm) After 5pm (Mon–Thu): Evening walks or drop-ins Fridays after 3:30pm: Extended walks or pet sitting Weekends: Flexible for walks, sitting, or overnight stays 💬 A Little Extra I’m patient, calm, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated with photos and notes after every visit 🐾 When caring for pets in their own home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow each owner’s routine closely, from feeding times and walks to medication and play, so everything stays consistent while you’re away. I’m fully DBS-checked through my full-time role, which is security focused, which means I take safety and trust very seriously. I’ll never share your personal details or access areas of your home unnecessarily. During visits, I double-check doors and gates are secure before and after walks, ensure water bowls are full, and always tidy up after pets. I send regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel confident they’re happy and well cared for. At my own home, I maintain a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of enrichment and affection for my three cats, so I completely understand how important it is for your pets to feel loved and secure.
About: I have stayed with my friends' animals many times, including an iguana 🦎😅, so I decided to help others who would like to spend their holidays peacefully without worrying about their furry friend. I work remotely, so I have no problem staying with my furry friend during the day or at night. I usually go for three walks a day, and if necessary, I have no problem going for additional ones. I don't offer pet care services in my home. I adhere to the rules of the homeowner where the pet lives to ensure the animal feels as comfortable as possible.
“Marie did a great job looking after Bella. She chcked in with me and kept me updated, including a picture or video of Bella each day. Bella seemed to have a great time with her and I felt confident she was being well looked after.”

About: With over four decades of dedicated experience, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages and a wide variety of breeds. My home, a comfortable 2-bedroom house, is ideally situated directly opposite a sprawling country park, providing endless opportunities for walks and outdoor adventures. I'm proud to say that the dogs I care for consistently show their happiness and eagerness to return. You can expect regular updates on your pet's stay. Every owner receives photos of their dog enjoying their time with me, typically sent via WhatsApp for convenience. I believe in keeping you fully informed and connected with your beloved companion throughout their visit. Being at home full-time allows me to fully commit to your dog's well-being. I focus on maintaining their established routines and ensuring they receive all the walks they need, treating each dog with the same love and attention I give my own. My property boasts a secure, fully fenced garden, perfect for safe play. The immediate proximity to the country park means daily access to expansive green spaces for exercise and exploration. Inside, my 2-bedroom home features practical, easy-to-clean flooring, making it perfectly suited for dogs, especially after muddy park adventures. I also have a friendly small dog who loves making new canine friends, ensuring a sociable and happy environment for your pet. Your dog's care will be tailored precisely to your wishes, and their familiar home routine will be diligently upheld. As a retired individual home most days, dog care fits seamlessly into my routine. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, grooming, and companionship while managing errands. When it comes to looking after your beloved pets, I provide attentive, reliable, and loving care, whether in your home or mine. My services are tailored to meet the unique needs of your furry friends, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and spending time outdoors, so dog walking is something I genuinely enjoy rather than just a job. Whether it’s a relaxed stroll, a long adventure, or exploring new routes, I’m happiest with a four-legged friend by my side! 🌿🐕 I’m an active, caring, and reliable person who will always match the pace, personality, and energy of the dog I’m with—whether they’re full of zoomies or prefer taking life one sniff at a time. A little about my experience 🦴 I’ve had dogs for over 10 years and have regularly cared for the pets of family and friends, so I’m comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and routines. I also have a Labrador of my own, so I know all about the energetic, slightly chaotic “crazy dog” moments! Whether your dog loves to run, play fetch, swim, or simply curl up for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout our time together. Every dog is unique, so I’ll always take the time to get to know their routine, personality, and what makes them happiest. ❤️ I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages 📸 so you can relax knowing your best friend is having a great time. I’m currently working part-time, so I’m able to offer flexible availability Monday- Wednesday. I am happy to provide morning, afternoon, and evening drop-in visits where possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I make sure to follow all care instructions closely, keep pets secure during walks and visits, and provide a calm and caring environment while you’re away.
About: Having owned pets all my life from an early age I love animals, I currently have a French Bulldog called Bear, We have 2 cats, 2 Rabbits and a pond full of fish. I adore animals, they give unconditional love and fill your life with complete happiness. Fully inured, live in Rossington but can travel I currently give all my time now to care for animals and there is no better reward than giving dogs and cats my time, I am available anytime to take care of your fury friends. I can accommodate pets in my home if they are friendly and okay with other animals, I can keep them isolated if that is required, I have a fenced safe garden for you dog to exercise and play .
About: I always wanted dogs growing up, and have often cared for friends’ pets when needed, and when I moved to Whiston I finally got the chance to have one full time - my ex-partner’s family dog needed to move, and we took him in. As we’re no longer together I don’t have him any more, and I would love to be able to give the care and attention to pets who need a home from home. I’m comfortable administering mediation (the dog mentioned took 4 different tablets, twice a day) and promise to always provide them with as many walks, playtime and treats as they want (treats within moderation obviously)! My work is hybrid so I’m able to be at home a lot, and I would never commit to taking in a pet if there was a chance I couldn’t be at home with them all the time. When working from home I can be flexible to ensure I can match your pets normal routine as closely as possible. They’ll also provide me with the perfect distraction to procrastinate! Although the back garden is unfenced, I would never leave your pet there unsupervised. I do have a fenced and gated front driveway. I would stick to your usual routine as closely as possible - pets are allowed wherever they are comfiest in my house, so they’d have full and complete roam of the house to make sure they found their most comfy spot! I’ll send photos and updates every day to let you know how they’re doing and what we’ve been up to for your peace of mind!
About: No matter the age, size or breed of dogs, all they would like is to be loved and cared for. A dog doesn’t deserve to be locked away for hours on end in solitary confinement, a pack animal needs to have company and be stimulated, I can care for your dog in my own home in a family environment. As a retired person I have the ability to provide care for dogs ensuring they are have the correct amount of exercise and stimulation throughout the day and given attention throughout the night. My garden is fully enclosed and secured with large garden gates to ensure nothing can enter or leave without the family being made aware. Security is a major issue when entrusting someone to care for your pet!
About: I regularly care for a friendly cocker spaniel, so it's important that your dog is comfortable around other dogs. I've been informally dog sitting for around two years now and I really enjoy it. I work an office job during the week, so I am available to help from Friday at 3pm until Sunday evening. I'm an active sitter and love a long outdoor adventure in all weathers. I'm just as happy to take a stroll on lead down my nearby lanes, engage in a game of fetch or have a cheeky snuggle on the sofa for the afternoon - sometimes its hard to tell who's having more fun :) Your dogs will be free to roam around the bungalow, which is based in a quiet cul de sac in Great Houghton. There are no rules to where they can go, they are free to enjoy beds, sofas and the small enclosed garden we have out the back of the bungalow. I will try to stick to your normal routines where possible and will of course send updates and photos as many times as you need, I want you to feel just as relaxed as your pet. I work Monday to Friday so I'm only available on weekends. I usually have a cocker spaniel on a Saturday so please only get in touch if your dog is comfortable around other dogs I'm in a quiet cul de sac with an enclosed garden. There are lots of fun walks near me in varying length. Animals that stay here are treated as members of the family and will be loved and cared for as you would your own :)
About: I've been around dogs since I was a young child. I'm particularly comfortable with large and giant breeds. A selection of the breeds we've had are as follows Kangol, German Sheperds, Leonberger, Border Collie, Romanian Sheperds and Golden Retrievers. My daily routine is geared around my pet customers so please ask and I will do whatever it is to fit you in. I deliver a custom service based upon their individual needs. I will ensure your dogs maintain their current routine and base everything I do around my discussions with yourself. I would look to meet your dogs prior to looking after them so they know me and wouldn't be worried that I was there with them.
“Gypsy and Mark did a fantastic job looking after our two cats while we were away. We received regular photos and updates and felt confident throughout that our pets were in good hands. Would highly recommend and definitely book again. Thanks so much!”


About: Me and my partner have both always had big dogs ever since we were little, both with family dogs (and other pets). We have a love for all animals. I currently work nights so my days are free to give you the satisfaction of knowing your dog is taken care of, walked, fed and loved. My partner (Carys) also works along side me so we have 24/7 availability. I have a fully fenced off garden, with plenty of room to run and play. Our full attention will be given to providing the safest and most calm enviroment.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Doncaster
Definitely would recommend! We have a massive Bernese mountain dog that has always been super shy but Jamie was great and pet sat her for a day while we were down in London! Because our dog is shy he even came to meet her before hand so they could get to know each other first. By about mid day he sent me pics and videos over WhatsApp of our happy girl running around the garden and getting pets. Made the process really easy and we felt reassured! Would book again. ☺️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Doncaster on Rover is £32.2 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Doncaster 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 Doncaster 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. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a 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.
