About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and I am hoping to work with animals as a full time job in the future. I recently completed my level 3 Animal Management qualification at college and am going to be starting university in September to study Veterinary Physiotherapy, so that I can achieve my dream of helping animals. I have previous work experience at the RSPCA looking after a range of dog breeds, including larger breeds like Huskies and Cane Corsos as well as small breeds like Chihuahuas and Terriers. During this experience, I have helped to walk dogs, clean out kennels, feed and play with dogs. I have also gained experience working with cats, rabbits, birds and other small animals at the RSPCA. I currently have a dog, who is a springer spaniel x poodle called Doodle, and a cat, called Pancake. I spend much of my free time taking Doodle on walks and playing and cuddling with her and Pancake whenever they want to. I have also on many occasions looked after pets of friends and family, including labradors, spaniels, jack russells, beagles, cats and rabbits. I am currently available most of the time during the summer apart from a few days where I am away. I will be starting university in September so I won't be available then. The safety of your pets will always be my number one priority and I will ensure that I keep an eye on them so that they are safe and happy. I will listen to, follow and respect any rules or boundaries that you have when looking after your pets to keep both you and your pets happy and comfortable.
“Belinda came to visit the pets beforehand and while I was away she was very reliable, visited on time and sent me photos every day. Such peace of mind while I was away over Christmas was priceless. I can absolutely recommend Belinda.”
“Lauren is a superstar sitter - she’s careful, caring, nothing is ever too much trouble. We’ve booked her for Mambo three (or is it four?) times now and she’s got such a good relationship with him, they are best buds! We have total peace of mind when Lauren is caring for Mambo, she always goes above and beyond! Thanks so much, again!”
“Our cat was fed and happy when we got back and we got plenty of lovely piccies showing she was doing well while we were away. Philippa and David also happily rescued a parcel for us that the postie left out in the rain! Thanks so much you guys :)”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs growing up, including training a guide dog. I have also grown up with a cat - I absolutely love all animals and would absolutely love to help you out 🥰 I’m a self employed stage manager who is staying at home between contracts. I’d be able to spend plenty of time playing and cuddling with your furry friends and taking them for plenty of walks 🥰🥰 I like to make my furry friends feel as comfortable and happy as possible. I love a good walk, and will always source the best places to take my furry friends.
About: I've grown up with all breeds of dogs from springers to Shiba Inus. My first job as a teenager was walking my neighbour's dogs. I currently have my own 3 year old springer fur-baby who is dog-friendly. With having a springer, I have worked trainers and behaviourists so am clued up on training and behavioural issues. I have also fostered for a spaniel charity so have experience with reactive and anxious dogs. I currently work full-time so have weekends available. However, I work remotely and having some flexibility so can pick boarders up during the day if needed before an overnight stay. I have a walled, grass garden with secure padlocked gate. Dogs have free range of the downstairs and have crate available if needed. WIth having a resident dog, the house is "dog-proofed", with high risk foods stored away. I live on a quiet estate away from busy traffic.
About: I have taken care of a wide range of dog breeds previously. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on and trusted me to check in, care for, feed, walk and play with their pets when needed! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, with dedicated morning, midday, and evening time for walks, feeding, play, and regular check-ins throughout the week. I care for every pet as if they were my own, keeping to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. In an owner’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific needs. I keep the space clean and provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind. In my home, pets have a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment. I make sure they are supervised, comfortable, and never left alone for long periods.
About: I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. With a strong background in animal health and wellbeing, I’m confident in administering medications, monitoring behavior, and providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. Your pets will be treated like family—kept safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work Monday-Friday and am available on weekends, mornings and evenings during the week and can stay overnight in your home. I’m happy to walk dogs if we can discuss timings in advance around my current responsibilities. I don’t bring cats or dogs into my home as I have my own pets but happy to look after small animals in my home. Im happy to stay at your home.
“Absolutely fantastic! Stacey-Leigh took incredibly good care of my cat, and I couldn't be happier. She sent detailed updates each time she visited, with loads of photos, and even a video which was lovely for my girlfriend and I while we were on holiday. I could not recommend her highly enough, and I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I am an animal lover who is home all day in Witchford and who is able to provide a lot of love and attention to your pet.

I grew up with dogs as a child in Sri Lanka, previously having a Dachshund and a Dalmatian. I like to train my puppy to sit, stay and come and to keep her clean with a bath once a week. My husband is also a dog lover who has had a Golden Retriever and a Jack Russel in the past and who will add extra love and car to your pet care experience!

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - East Cambridgeshire
Amanda is a great cat sitter! Our cats absolutely loved her (and we absolutely loved the amount of pictures we got). She's super professional and prepared, and clearly loves cats and spending time with them. Bibi and Marvin had a great time with her, and she was wonderful to interact with. We had to last minute add some medication to the routine as Marvin had developed some mild swelling and this was no problem at all for her! Would definitely book her again ☺️
We were really happy with how our cat was looked after. Saskia was reliable, popped round before our holiday to ask about all our cat’s little habits and preferences, which was lovely. While we were away, she sent updates after every visit so we always knew how our furry troublemaker was doing. Our cat isn’t usually very social or trusting, but she clearly loved Saskia.
Susanna was excellent with our dogs! Her communication is perfect and she kept us well informed while she was with the dogs. She also provided lovely photos and videos which always helps with peace of mind. We will definitely have Susanna take care of our dogs again.
Angelina took such wonderful care of the cats and the house whilst we were away, the cats loved her. To top it all of she is such a lovely person. We felt very calm knowing she was takig care of everyone so well and probided us with lots of updates and photos. Thankyou angelina!

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.

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 East Cambridgeshire 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.

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.
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.
