“Qian W has been absolutely amazing with our pup! Great communication, and she’s great with handling her especially when she can be a bit too excitable. We will definitely book in with her again in future and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter.”

“Was apprehensive at first but met Stacey and she reassured me. Our cats were well looked after they loved her would definitely recommend and will be booking again soon thank you”

“Rebecca was amazing with my wee kitten Ozzy! Her communication was great with me before, during and after the visit and really put me at ease. She was fantastic with Ozzy, gave me updates and sent pictures and videos. She made sure he was fed, played with him and made sure he was safe before I left following any instructions I had left. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Rebecca again if I need someone to check on Ozzy and I would highly recommend her services 💖”

About: I've had animals my whole life, dogs, cats, small furries & birds. at the moment I have a boxer, ragdoll kitty, tortoise & 2 rats. Your pet will be treated with the same care & love as my own. I want your pets to see me as a friend they love to see, so as much info about what they like as you can give will be appreciated. I'm an auxiliary nurse, working part time, happy to care for pets on my days off, I can be flexible if you need late drop ins etc. I can't offer holiday boarding as I still work part time, but can accommodate 1-2 nights when I'm off, for short trips away, family emergencies etc, or drop in visits if that suits your pet... I have a fenced garden & a friendly dog to keep your dog company, I also have an elderly cat, so any pets would have to be cat friendly.
“Zoe was a great cat sitter! She helped us out very last minute after another cat sitter cancelled a couple of days before we were due to leave. Zoe sent detailed updates during each visit, and we returned home to a happy, chilled cat 🥰”

“Emma looked after my cat, Gus, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She kept me updated throughout with regular messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Gus was very well looked after and received lots of attention and care. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, which says it all! I would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

About: AWAY UNTIL AUGUST DUE TO RELOCATION TO SCOTLAND Hello! I’m Satine! I’m an animal lover through and through - even to the smallest kinds. I’ve had pets in my home my entire life - both dogs and cats! Even in my childhood I loved to care and look after any animal I laid eyes on. I currently have two energetic, active and affectionate cocker spaniels - brother and sister, as well as two cats, both with very different personalities. My Bodie and Bambi (dogs) and Kaito and Eevee (cats) are truly my world. I don’t think there’s ever been a point in my life where I didn’t have a pet! They brighten up a home and I adore to watch them grow and enjoy life. I also have experience in taking care of kittens and puppies, so if your baby is very young, I’m willing to taken them on and make sure they’re carefully looked after! I am starting college to study childcare and have worked with children as a Nursery Apprentice previously - which is a role I’m very passionate in as I also love taking care of children. My experience often overlaps with these two practices as animals and children both require a lot of careful care and nurturing. I’d love to take care of your babies for however long need be, and rest assured they will be in safe, capable hands. I am currently only in college for 3 days of the week - and these days are highly flexible as they start and finish early, which means I will have plenty of time to drop in and pay your babies a visit! Before I take care of your cats/dogs, it is essential that I meet them and visit your home prior, as this will give me insight on their environment, tell me their preferences, and allow them to become comfortable with me in advance. I also will take note of any information you provide on their specific dietary needs, medication usage or other special requirements. I will always follow your specific care instructions for each cat or dog. I am also very experienced in dealing efficiently with cheeky or mischievous pets, as my Kaito who is an indoor cat frequently tries to work his way around windows and doors. I will always check to make sure your home is secure before leaving and when I first arrive to ensure the safety of your pets and prevent them from wandering off. I am also fine to take care of other basic tasks like taking bins out, taking in parcels or letters etc. Just let me know!
About: As a 4th-year veterinary medicine student at the University of Glasgow, caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am. I’ve managed a cattery, looked after my own beloved dogs and cats, and regularly cared for pets belonging to friends and family. Over the past four years, I’ve gained hands-on experience in various veterinary practices, deepening both my clinical skills and my understanding of what pets truly need to feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it's cuddles, playtime, or medication support, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, compassion, and genuine care. I am currently awaiting my fourth-year exam results, which I expect to receive by the end of June. Please feel free to get in touch regarding availability from September onwards. At present, I am unable to confirm dates definitively, but I will be happy to provide an update once my results are released. 🐾💜 I am currently transitioning into my final year at vet school which is claiming to be very full on leaving little free time however I update my calendar regularly so it’s usually accurate. With this being said I always try my best to fit in walks and drop ins so please do reach out and we can try sort something! I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet's needs. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping to their routine to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve had vizslas for around 20 years now, as a teenager we had one in the family home and when he sadly passed we fostered several and one long term. When I moved out I got my own vizsla puppy and he’s 3.5 now but still my big baby. Arlo was a very challenging puppy and although he is still high energy he’s a very good boy and loves to sleep inbetween walks. Arlo is not a morning person and would happily sleep until lunchtime most days, he needs 1.5-2 hours walks a day and has severe separation anxiety so is never left alone. He absolutely loves toys especially a ball or frisbee on a walk but he’s happy to share and never takes them off another dog. He loves to chase and be chased by his many doggy friends and has never shown any aggressions what so ever. Any time he’s given a telling off by another dog he takes the telling and doesn’t annoy them. I’ve had plenty of other family/friends dogs in our home or theirs and arlo and I both love it! Arlo sleeps in my bed cuddled in under the covers which is ridiculous but doggy guests will have the choice of a double bed in the other room, the sofa or their beds whatever suits them. Ofcourse they are allowed on the sofas and have full access to Arlo’s toys and garden. I work from home full time and as Arlo has separation anxiety he is never left alone. I work full time from home and my shifts vary slightly from 8-4,10-6 and 6-2. I walk Arlo twice per day for around 2 hours total and let him out to run around the garden as often as he likes. Another buddy for him during boarding would not change much for us just another pup to love. I have an open plan living space with a large turfed garden. I live right next to a great off lead walking spot and know all the local dogs who Arlo is of course friends with. I can accommodate needs as requested and although Arlo has full run of the house I can crate visiting dogs if needed. I will monitor the dogs at all times and send regular update pics and videos. I’m happy to have a free meet and greet/home tour prior to any bookings to ensure the dogs get along and are familiar with each other. Guest dogs will be equipped with an Apple air tag during walks for extra safety precautions.
About: I am a 30 year old woman with a 4 year old Siberian husky and a 2 year old tabby cat. I am an animal lover and like being outside come rain or shine so be assured your pets will have the best walks or cuddles asked for. I have been brought up around animals my entire life with both sisters having 2 dogs each and my parents having a family dog whilst growing up. I do work full time as a teacher but I have various holidays throughout the year where I am able to walk or have your animal overnight if you are away. Walking your dog or cuddling your cat is at the highest priority. I am very trust worthy when entering your home. I will send details of my visit and pictures of your pet being looked after and attended to.
About: I’ve owned dogs since a very young age. I’m obsessed with any animals big or small and love to care for them. I own my own horses aswell so know what hard work is like. I currently work in a doggie day care for the past 3years now and love my job I currently work 4 days a week. The rest of my days are available for me to spend loads of time with your pets and give them the best care possible The safety of your pet will always be my priority! I’ll always make sure there is a secured area for your pet to play and have fun
“My dog Louie absolutely loved Angela. Angela walked Louie for a week at lunchtime and sent me pictures and updates of times of walks. As we were on holiday, it was such a reassurance that Louie was well loved and walked as my daughter who was looking after dog was working. Fabulous service and would 100% recommend. Thank you Angela”

Eleanor was great with my pride. My cats are usually skittish, but her gentle approach and trwats had them quite happily accepting pets. She took photos and videos of them and checked in with me via text at every visit. I was deeply reassured that they were ok in my absence. Definitely booking her next time I am away.

Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. 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.
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 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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
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.
