“Thanks Becky for your visits while we were away for 10 days. The cats are settled and happy and keeping them in their routine while we were away was the best option for them. We’ll definitely use your service again ❤️ xx”
About: Throughout my life I've always had one family member who had 4 legs and extensive body hair! I currently have a rescue Romanian boy(neutered) called Murphy who adores other dogs so he would love to help me in making your 'family member' feel at home. I have experience with senior dogs - my last rescue, Alfie reached 18 yrs- and also shy, anxious ones too. I have a car and am only 10mins away from a beach with forest nearby as well as living beside a large park and woodland walk. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and am enthusiastic about offering a service which will benefit other dog-lovers. I currently work 2 days per week (Mon&Tues) but would be available for the remainder of the week, both day and overnight. I would be flexible around the Mon/Tues however as I generally work from home, but would prefer Wed-Sun so I can fully focus on your dog's happiness and welfare. I have an enclosed garden which is large with lots of shrubs etc providing plenty sniff spots! I obviously ensure that my home is free from hazards eg cleaning products, fire safety etc . My dog Murphy is neutered, loves other dogs and will provide reassurance and fun....he's shy at first but loves to play.
“Holly made us feel so comfortable leaving our kitten for the first time. She followed all of our requests and gave us regular updates. She managed to bring our shy kitten out of her shell so quickly. Would absolutely recommend! ”
“Luka was great with Maisie, she was initially hesitant to interact with him but he was calm and confident with her. Maisie was happy for him to be in her space by the end of the drop in - it normally takes a few hours for her to accept a new human in her home, for Luka it was about 20 minutes!”
“Jennifer pops in to check on my dog, Kobe, a few days each week, and I genuinely couldn’t recommend her highly enough. She’s reliable, caring, and fantastic with him, and Kobe absolutely loves seeing her. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy to look after your pet, I’d definitely recommend getting in touch with Jennifer.”
“Carrie was great, the booking was straight forward and easy to arrange. She was warm and friendly and made the effort to get to know my cat before the drop in visits. I would highly recommend to anyone needing a drop in visit for their pets.”
“Amber was fantastic with my dog Cooper! She stopped by for a drop-in and he was so excited to see her — tail wagging, happy dancing, the whole thing. She sent photos right away, which I really appreciated. I’ll admit, Cooper is definitely a pampered pooch, but none of that was too much for Amber. She handled him perfectly. Highly recommend her — Cooper’s already hoping she comes back soon! 🐶💛”
About: I have taken care of my friend's Labrador cross rescue here and there for two years now. my responsibilities included dog walking, feeding, toilet runs, giving her medication, doing runs in the car, and showering her with love and attention. I am currently a full-time nursing student at UoD and have classes throughout the week but I am usually free Thursday to Monday. If I do have to go to a lecture it is usually no more than two hours. In my home with the cats we feed the cats 3 times a day and get let in for attention usually after breakfast and stay in the house (they are outside cats) until their next meal and then go out to eat in the garage while we eat in the house and when everyone is done they are let back in. When petsitting for my friend, we would usually go for 1-2 walks a day and spend most of our time playing in the back garden or driving around with her head out the window. At night we would sit and cuddle together while watching TV and then she would sleep in her bed overnight.
About: I have been taking care of dogs of my own or for neighbours and friends since a young age, which developed into a small clientele of dogs whom I would regularly care for throughout my university studies. I have experience caring for puppies (and can confidently assist or continue puppy training) all the way to elderly dogs and am happy administering medication (non-injection). I like to chat with the owners before taking on a pet sitting job to ensure I know exactly what kind of care you expect from me and, more importantly, how I can make the experience as enjoyable as possible for your furry friend. I am currently a PhD student at the University of Dundee so have full autonomy over my schedule and can be at home or take time off during weekday day times. I have availability over the weekends and evenings and can arrange my work to fit around longer sits if need be. I have an enclosed garden which will be useable by your pet only. I live very close to big open spaces so can take them for any length or duration of exercise they might require. I tend to ask owners the specifics of how they prefer me to care for their pet. For example, any feeding/toilet/sleeping schedules, sleeping arrangements and whether or not they should be allowed on furniture/on beds etc. In my opinion the environment I can provide for your pet is largely up to you.
About: I have taken care of my own cats for 5 years and I have been a cat sitter for family and friends for the past 3 years I’m currently at university and have lots of free time in between classes to and would love to look after your wee pets in my spare time :) I live in a flat and can look after indoor cats however will not have the space to accommodate an outdoor cat and their needs
“We had last minute plans come up and we were able to get an hour's drop in for our two young dogs all sorted and organised stress free! Maria got back to us very quickly and we got really good vibes straight away - nothing was too much trouble for her. The dogs loved her instantly and she didn't seem phased by all their antics ? it's the longest we have left them alone and they were perfectly relaxed and happy when we got home (and nothing was destroyed ?). It was the first time we've ever used a pet sitter and couldn't be happier with the service.”
About: I have had a dog of my own for two years and he had to stay back in Greece with my family, so I really miss him. I love spending time with dogs, especially playing and going on walks with them. I am currently a uni student attending my third year in Pharmacology. My timetable consists of an average of 1-2 hours of uni work/lectures so I have plenty of free time during my day. My flat is pretty spacious and I live with my two flatmates that are also dog lovers. The environment is really cosy and the dogs will be sleeping in my room either next to my bed or with me if they wish to, so they can have company and feel comfortable at all times.
The median cost per Visit for pet sitting in Dundee is £12

Malin was great with my very shy cat Shadow. She was really attentive, noticing a cut on her leg and giving her the medication she needed. She helped me out a lot when my flight got cancelled and I needed an extra visit last minute. I appreciated the photo updates and report cards! I found her to be very reliable and would not hesitate to recommend her!
Holly is an exceptional pet sitter, she looked after my cat while I was away over the weekend and followed our routine and all instructions perfectly, putting me and my fussy boy completely at ease. She sent lots of photos and videos of him being his goofiest self showing how comfy he was with her from the very beginning, and gave me lots of updates to put my anxious mind to rest. Holly also went above and beyond, to make the space clean and welcoming for me coming home. I would thoroughly recommend her and will be booking with her again! Thank you Holly! 🌟😻
Luka is an absolute lifesaver! Had to book last minute for some drop ins so my dog wouldn't be home alone all day. Luka came over first for a meet and greet which was great. Before and after the drop ins we had great communication, and Luka was also aware of the effect of the heat and adapted their drop in accordingly to make sure that Ghost didn't overheat. Positive experience, will book again!

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.
Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Dundee pet parents with similar pet households.
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.

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 Dundee 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.

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.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
