About: I've had both cats and dogs all throughout my life and I have plenty of experience looking after animals. I regularly look after my family and friends pets and I love having a furry companion by my side. I live in a house with a large garden with lots of room to play and all animals are welcome on our sofas and bed if that's where they are most comfortable. Also, if you'd rather we kept them off furniture to keep consistent with training at home then I'm more than happy to follow your rules. I work from home full time so I have plenty of availability and I'll be around to keep your dog company, with lots of stimulation and walks. I'm comfortable with large dogs and will do my very best to accommodate any special requests or concerns you might have. Excited to meet your furry best friend! 🐈🐶 I work from home full-time self employed so I'd love a furry companion or two to keep me company! I'm available for day sits, nights & holidays and I'm able to accommodate for as many walks needed. I'd love to keep you updated regularly about how your pet is doing with pictures and texts ☺️ happy to listen to any requests or concerns you have.
“Rebecca was so understanding and accommodating for me and my Ruby, and I felt like nothing was too much trouble. My cat is super cautious and shy but warmed to Rebecca immediately, making me look like a liar - which in this case I’m thrilled about! Rebecca sent me updates from every drop in and I was able to enjoy my trip away knowing Ruby was as happy as she could be. I would recommend her highly, thank you Rebecca, your kindness and respect to Ruby’s boundaries was so appreciated.”

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: Hi I am Heather. I have cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was little. I am an active individual who has 2 energetic children to play with and entertain your pet. I have carried out doggy boarding in both the UK and Australia and have always had very positive feedback and returning customers. You can enjoy your holiday in confidence knowing your dog is in great care with me and settled as part of my family. I am available for doggy day care whether this is occasional or a permanent arrangement. I am based at home and can offer lots of play and walks throughout the day: I am based at home just outside Kilmarnock. I have a cycle track literally on my doorstep which your dog will love to explore. I also have a large back garden. I have an extensive fenced back garden and my back door is always open for your dog to access at their leisure. I have a laid back approach and let your dog treat my home like their own so I follow any requests which my clients have. Can easily accommodate crates if required.
“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”

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 have taken care of a wide range of breeds from pomeranians (my own) to collies, to vislas, to crossbreeds. My home has a gated garden therefore freedom to roam outside securely! I own my own dog Winston and he gets three walks a day. One in the morning, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. I work from home some days during the week and these days I have the back door open for the dog to roam in and out the house as he pleases. I have eyes on him at all times as my dining table is located at the back door which is beneficial. I have one friendly dog who will keep your dog company and a fenced garden. My neighbours are an elderly couple who give my dog one treat every day through the fence and they love it when I take my other neighbours dogs for the day, the more the merrier. My area has lots of nice woodland walks near by and I have a car to travel to spots in the area - dogs will ALWAYS be kept safely on the lead. Open to altering my day to fit around the specific needs of your dog. Fully insured.

About: I am a dog walker currently walking 7 dogs a week permanently. I also carry out pet visits and house sit on and off for regular clients. I am fully insured with 2+ years experience. I have recently went self employed and have so much time to dog walk and cat/dog sit when required. I prefer being self employed meaning i can do this when I want to and which best suits the owner. I am such an animal lover and want to spend time caring/ looking after animals as I see this as more of a hobby compared to a job because I love it so much. I’ve walked dogs small and large and have gained experience feeding, walking and bathing dogs.

About: Hi, I'm Alice! I'm a genuine dog lover who enjoys spending quality time with dogs of all ages and personalities. While living in Glasgow, I looked after a lovely Schnauzer once a week for three years, building a great bond through regular walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I've recently moved to a peaceful home just outside Kilmarnock with a large, secure garden that's perfect for playing, exploring, and relaxing outdoors. Whether your dog loves long walks, games of fetch, or simply curling up for some company, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I'll treat your dog with the same love, care, and attention as if they were my own. If you're looking for a friendly, reliable, and caring sitter, I'd love to meet you and your furry friend. Please feel free to get in touch—I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks, Alice 🐾 Pet care fits easily into my daily routine as I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving plenty of attention and affection. I also have a large garden where dogs can safely play and burn off energy. Whether your dog needs company during the day, regular walks, or overnight care, I'll make sure they receive the love, exercise, and attention they deserve while keeping to their usual routine as much as possible. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. In my home, dogs will have a calm, clean, and welcoming environment with plenty of space to relax and a large garden for supervised play and exercise. I'll follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, medication (if needed), and any specific instructions you provide. When caring for dogs in an owner's home, I'll treat both your home and your dog with the utmost respect. I'll ensure your dog receives lots of attention, exercise, companionship, and affection while keeping them comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I'll also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve had dogs now for almost 12 years! I have two gorgeous cockapoos called Finn and Max who are 11 and 7. I have been to training classes with both and spend most of my free time walking them and hanging out with them even though they live back at my mums! I work as a teacher so have set days and hours and can use my evenings as I wish. I also have 13 weeks holidays during the year that I want to put to better use! I would fully respect my client and their cats home, ensuring a safe and comfortable space at all times. Rooms and doors would be carefully monitored to ensure the cat remained where he/she should be. I use positive reinforcement and lots of play time to keep them busy and happy!
“Holly took away all my worries about leaving my kitten for the first time. I received regular messages to keep me updated and photos to show me how well he was doing. She's warm and friendly and she cared for Emjay so well I will definitely use her services again.”

About: I've been a long time volunteer for rescues walking doggies (and had a few rescue pups myself) and it's always been my dream to spend more and more time with my favourite creatures and so I've joined NarpsUK, become Pet First Aid qualified and aim to make Cuddy Paws Dog Walking my Monday to Friday in this mid stage of life for the long term. I'd consider myself a dog Safety and Exercise specialist. :) Given my love of doggies, I'm looking to do dog walking and pet drop-in's full time Monday to Friday days. All the changes over the past few years have provided the opportunity to gain the necessary qualifications. In your home, (DBS checked) I provide fresh water, help your floofy angel out to the loo in the back garden or wherever is best to do so and provide a quick walkies if wished.
About: I look after cats as if they were my own, getting to know their routine and personality so they feel comfortable and settled at home. I keep things calm and familiar, with plenty of care, attention, and the kind of company your cat actually enjoys. I’ll also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well looked after while you’re away. I have my own cat Oreo, he’s a cheeky well loved boy who loves to play and get up to nonsense. I work 2 shifts per week so have plenty of flexibility around your pet, I can come morning and night-time on work days and anytime during my days off. I care for pets in their own home, keeping to their usual routine so they feel safe and comfortable. Visits include feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime or calm company, and lots of care and attention. I always follow your instructions and send regular updates, so you know your cat is happy while you’re away.

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: I used to take care of family members dogs when away and for the past 6 years I’ve worked as a dog groomer so I’ve had plenty experience with a variety of different breeds and temperaments. I only work 7 hour days 4 days a week so I’ll have 3 days to look after your dogs as well as any time I have free after my work. Unfortunately I cannot care for a dog at my own home as my dog isn’t great with others, but I’ll ensure to follow any rules you have at your home with your dog to keep you and your dog happy.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - East Ayrshire
I'm really happy with how the visits went, my very shy cat really liked Aneesah and it was so helpful to get videos and photos to put my mind at rest. I could tell Aneesah was going to be good because she spotted something quirky I'd left by cat's food area and asked about it. I got home to a happy, relaxed and well-fed cat. Would definitely book again. Thanks!

Qian is by far the best dog walker we have had! She takes so much care looking after Arlo, is communicative and you can tell she loves what she does. She has been looking after our boy, Arlo, for a few months now and we wouldn’t trust anyone more. Thank you for all of your hard work, it is appreciated!

Yes. There are up to 1,475 pet sitters offering care in and around East Ayrshire. To find a sitter who is available during your working hours, enter your address, select the days and time slots when you need care, and review matching local profiles.
Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.
You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.
Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
