“Danielle was communicative and more than happy to adapt to the needs of our crazy collies. We came home to happy, healthy dogs and a tidy home with lots of lovely pictures and updates sent during our time away!”

About: I have 20 years of experience raising dogs and have been a pet sitter for four years. I take care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and they all tend to love me. My goal is to help all cats and dogs live happy and healthy lives. I work as a freelancer, so I can arrange my own schedule and do my best to take care of your pets! Pets always come first！ My home is very clean, and the pets I care for are always kept clean as well. I have a fenced garden where dogs can run, and there is plenty of space inside the house. I can provide a loving home for your pets.

“As ever Brad is such a dependable sitter. The boys store him & each time we return they appear to be content. One can’t ask for more than that. Highly recommended. Thanks again Brad.”

About: I care for your pets in your home thereby offering a bespoke one to one service giving you and your pets 100% of my attention, love and care. This is my full-time occupation, so I will not be leaving your pets for long periods of time to work elsewhere. They will receive my full undivided attention. I understand that leaving your home and pets can be stressful. My priority is to maintain your pets normal feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules to blend seamlessly into their normal routine whilst also looking after your home. I can assure you that I am deeply respectful of your home and will leave it exceptionally clean and tidy for your return. I am happy to water plants, collect mail, and take out the bins while you are away. Also, I will send you regular photo and text updates, unless you prefer me not to. I am fully background-checked (enhanced DBS), insured, and canine first aid certified and comfortable administering medications if required. I have experience with reactive dogs, senior cats and dogs and small mammals. Finally, I offer a free no obligation meet and greet to discuss you and your pets’ needs. I look forward to hearing from you. Pet sitting is my full time occupation, so I offer 24 hour care of your pets in your home. This works well for anxious pets who do not cope well with alternative boarding services such as kennels and catteries. They get to stay in the comfort of their own home, following their usual routines, and getting spoilt rotten by me. I can assure you that I am deeply respectful of your home and will leave it exceptionally clean and tidy for your return. I am happy to water plants, collect mail, and take out the bins while you are away. Also, I will send you regular photo and text updates, unless you prefer me not to. I offer a free meet and greet prior to you booking my services, during which all your pets needs are discussed and agreed upon. I also ask you to complete a form detailing all of your pets needs for me to refer back to during the sit. I can assure you that I am deeply respectful of your home and will leave it exceptionally clean and tidy for your return. I am happy to water plants, collect mail, and take out the bins while you are away - all of which indicates that your house is occupied and therefore more secure.

“If you're heading to Alton Towers and need a place to leave your dog, Lorena's the spot. She lives just 20 minutes away, so it was a great choice to drop off and pick up our dog when we were done for the day. Her house is lovely, with a nice garden, and she welcomed our dog with open arms. Lorena was great, and our dog was thrilled with her. We'd for sure do this again if we come back to the UK.”

“I cannot recommend Helen high enough! We've enjoyed a worry free week away with all the family, and not had to worry at all that our two, slightly older, stuck in their ways dogs have been looked after very well. We know this due to Helens great communication and her diligence in meeting them beforehand. In addition Helen is a model house guest, linens washed, everything spic and span. We even had milk so we could have a brew on our return. 5*****!”

“We’ve never left Loki with anyone but family before. Rebecca has been smashing with him for the week whilst we’ve been away. Great communication and updates Speedy replies Photos sent as well as updates Will use again 100%”

About: I've taken care of cats since I was 10 years old. My friends and family rely on me to look after theirs when they go on holiday. I love spending time with them and look after the stray cats in my neighborhood. I'm currently working part time. I will have plenty of time to look after and play with your pets. I can do the occasional weekends when I don't have plans. I have a fenced garden where my cats feel safe. I however won't be able to look after your cats in my home due to me having my own

About: Hi, I’m Phoebe, an experienced and reliable dog walker who genuinely loves spending time with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve had hands-on experience with a range of dogs, from gentle, easygoing companions like my own Lab/collie Milo (“Spuds”) to energetic, intelligent pups like my new addition golden retriever Goose. I understand that every dog is different, and I always adapt my approach to suit their individual needs; whether that’s a calm, steady walk, a fun and engaging play session, or simply providing company and reassurance. My two friendly, well-socialised dogs will join your pooch (unless you specified otherwise), on a pack walk, drop-in session or day-care adventure. This is a particularly great socialisation opportunity for dogs who enjoy canine company, come from a single-pup household or would benefit from some confidence building with other dogs in a safe and controlled environment. I’m confident with reinforcing good behaviour both inside the home and whilst out and about. Safety, trust, and making sure your dog feels happy and comfortable are always my top priorities. Pet care fits really naturally into my day as I work part-time from home, so I have a lot of flexibility. I tend to start my mornings early, which works perfectly for dogs who need a good walk or some attention before the day gets busy. Because I’m home-based, I can plan my day around the dogs I’m looking after, whether that’s longer walks, more active playtime, or just keeping them company so they’re not left on their own for too long. I’m able to be present and not rushed, which I think makes a big difference. It’s something I genuinely enjoy building into my routine, not squeezing in, so each dog gets the time, care, and attention they need to feel happy and settled. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m based in a quiet, rural area with access to safe walking routes and open spaces, ideal for calm, enjoyable walks and enrichment. My approach is always centred around creating a positive, secure, and stress-free experience for every dog in my care. My two friendly, well-socialised dogs, Milo (“Spuds”) and Goose, can also be involved in walks where appropriate, giving your dog the opportunity to enjoy positive pack walks, socialisation, and confidence-building in a safe and controlled environment. Whether I’m caring for your dog during walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your own home, I take a thoughtful and attentive approach, ensuring the environment is safe, familiar, and suited to their needs. I stick closely to your dog’s usual routine, including feeding, exercise, and any specific instructions, so they feel settled and comfortable. I never leave dogs unsupervised and am confident handling different personalities, from energetic and playful to more sensitive, nervous or relaxed dogs, always prioritising calm, positive interactions. You can trust that your dog will be cared for as if they were my own; safe, well looked after, and given plenty of attention, affection, and reassurance while placed in my care.

“We were delighted with Lesley, and Mimi was happy too so it was good match. Thanks Lesley, we will ask for you the next time we need a sitter.”

About: I am a second year veterinary student with a lifelong passion for animals and hands-on-experience caring for a wide range of pets. Growing up with animals, I have trained my own dogs and regularly care for family, friends and neighbours dogs. Through my veterinary studies, I have developed knowledge of animal behaviour, handling, health and welfare allowing me to easily spot if any health issues arise in your pet. I have also completed placements at a dog and cat boarding kennel and an animal rescue centre giving me practical experience working with animals of different ages, temperaments and needs. I provide reliable and compassionate care, treating every pet as if they were my own. I have recently completed my second year of veterinary studies and am available for pet care from now until 28th September. My schedule is highly flexible including week days and weekends allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. Please note that I have veterinary placement commitments during the weeks commencing 17th august and 24th august 2026. During these two weeks, I will be available on weekday evenings after 6pm and throughout the weekends. Outside of these dates, I am available throughout the day and can offer a high degree of flexibility to suit owners schedules. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow all instructions provided regarding feeding, exercise medication and any specific care requirements ensuring each pet receives attentive and individual care. I take the time to provide companionship, enrichment and exercise appropriate to the pets needs while monitoring their health and wellbeing. As a veterinary student, I am familiar with animal behaviour allowing me to recognise signs of stress, illness or discomfort and respond appropriately. I also treat owners houses with respect, keeping the area clean and tidy and providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My aim is to ensure both pets and owners feel relaxed and confident throughout the pet sitting experience.

“Very impressed with Andrew on the pre-sit visit. A very personable, caring young man. Charlie the cat was well looked after as was the house - quite spotless when we got back! Andrew tried to take photos to send to us but it appears our cat is camera shy! We are more than happy with the reasonably priced service provided and will most certainly book Andrew if we go away again. Great sitter, great service from Rover.”

About: After Losing My childhood Dog last year I’ve taken to looking after my family and friends pets to fill a void . i’ve completed a level 3 diploma in animal management at college and have a naturally caring nature when it comes to animals. At the moment i’m puppy sitting two puppies weekly including having to care and nurture them overnight. My shipoo (Ronnie) lived a comfortable and happy life until he was 14 years old . This has given me experience looking after a senior dog as he needed many hours of care and attention through his last few months of his life. As i have a big family who all share the same love for pets as me , it’s given me plenty of opportunities over my lifetime to get the confidence i have with dogs . As i currently work as a cook in a nursing home i have had a DBS check :) I do 33 hours in a week and i do them as 3 ,11 hours shifts . my rota cover 4 weeks so its best for me to work on short notice. I work part time and my rota covers 4 weeks so if you’re looking for a pet sitter for a spontaneous weekend away i’m perfect to book. i’m very adaptable and will adjust to any rules you have for your pets . i’m comfortable with the thought of your pet sleeping in the bed or crate. I’m only available for pet sitting at the owners home as i think it’s better and less stressful for your dog to keep in there routines.

“Catherine looked after our dogs in our home for a week and they had a wonderful time. Walked regularly and given lots of opportunity to play. The house was in a wonderful condition when we returned. Absolutely fab. Thank you.”

“William was fantastic, went above and beyond to look after Evie and Eska. He gave updates throughout the time and was both gracious and helpful, making it easier for me to be away without worrying.”

Fiona M.

“Thank you so much for looking after Max & George. Great communication & would definitely rebook again x”

Amanda J.

“Lara was fantastic housesitting looking after our pets, they all had a great time with her! I feel like they hardly noticed we left 😂 she texted us photos of them while we were away which was lovely and appreciated. The house was nice and clean when we came back as well. Will definitely book her again!”

“Antonia arrived on time and even gave me an ETA on when she would arrive, which I thought was amazing. Our dog settled really well with her and when I got back I found my dog asleep right by Antonia’s feet, which was so lovely to see and very reassuring. She gave Treacle her medicine on time. Antonia is a very friendly lady and cared greatly for my precious girl. Thankyou so much. The only thing I would recommend would be updates of her movements during the day. It would have been nice to have a message to say she’d had her medicine ok. Other than that I can’t fault her care with this lovely lady. We would definitely book her again should I have another dog, unfortunately our girl passed away 3 days later.”
