About: I enjoy being around and caring for animals, as I’ve always had at least one pet in my life and they bring so much joy. For over a decade my Mum has been working in dog boarding and walking so I’ve got a lot of experience with a whole range of breeds and their individual traits, needs and characters! I know the importance of safety, and making them feel comfortable and you can rest assured that I take their security seriously while giving them lots of care and enriching walks Please note, I have had surgery last year that means that I have a weakness in my Right shoulder and for this reason I'm only able to take dogs who aren't too heavy and pull hard on the lead- If they're prone to yanking it I don't want to hurt my arm, thank you for your understanding. I'm happy to chat over this if you have any concerns :) I’m self employed so I’ve got plenty of time to take walks and I can be flexible with timings throughout the week - early mornings are fine I’m very responsible as a dog walker (I’d never let a dog off their leash without knowing 100% that they would return to me and that the owner is comfortable with that too) I have attachments to secure dogs inside the cars if needed to drive somewhere to walk and am really careful along busy roads. If I need to access someone’s home to collect a dog I wouldn’t disclose where they key is kept etc (I work in hospitality so I’m usually accessing peoples rooms to clean etc regularly) I also want to know if any specific needs a pet has so that I’m prepared

About: I've looked after and loved dogs and indeed all animals since I was a 10 year boy in North London. I now live in a large bungalow in Dorset England. I have a large very secure garden and access to lovely countryside walks round the New Forest. I would love to share my environment with some furry friends and look forward to meeting your animals I recently retired after 24 years as a driving instructor. I love walking the new forest trails and I also have a very large secure garden to play ball games in. I'll have plenty of time to play with and care for you pets.and I will look forward to meeting them I have a large secure garden. I have my own dog that loves to play ball with other dogs, but I can easily keep them apart if needed. I live on top of the New Forest trails so lovely walk are on offer at least twice daily

“Last min walk for Fergie as I was staying with my mum in West Moors. Julia was prompt, professional and very kind to Fergie who’s a rescue. She’s bright and breezy and very reliable. Highly recommend.”

About: I have been taking care of some wonderful doggie friends by walking, feeding, cleaning and comforting them. We always have nice time together. I have a 5 year old whippet who is part of our family. My human clients are all happy with the way their fur babies are treated and my doggie clients would return to their owners happy and content at the end of their stay 😊 I'm very flexible. Exact time can be discussed with me directly to suit your needs. Please drop me a message to discuss further. Thank you. My house is detached with a large fenced garden where your dogs will be spending nice time chilling or playing games or just running around!

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life—starting with two cats as a child, and later two more as an adult. I’ve owned a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, a Basset Hound, and three Hungarian Vizslas. I’ve also looked after friends’ French Bulldogs and Cockapoos, so I’m experienced with both large and small breeds. Having used Rover myself as a pet owner, I understand the needs of the owner and what is required of me as a walker and pet sitter. I can walk your dog with mine, or on their own, it is entirely down to your pets needs. I drive a Defender so im happy (if you are) to put your dog in the car that has a safety grate in the boot to keep dogs safe. Equally if you or your pet are not comfortable in a car, I can walk them locally. I am totally flexible to your dogs needs. As a trader, I have the flexibility to work anytime and from anywhere with an internet connection. This allows me to offer highly flexible scheduling and be readily available for your pet’s needs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and secure environment with a fully fenced garden for play and outdoor time. I have a friendly Hungarian Vizsla who loves the company of other dogs, and I make sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and part of the family. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a calm, clean space and follow each pet’s routine closely—including walks, meals, and any special care instructions.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs since I was five, and my love for animals has only grown stronger over the years. From caring for my own pets to helping out friends with theirs, and working hands-on every day on a farm, animal care has become second nature to me. Most importantly, I treat every animal with the same unconditional love and respect I give my own Over the summer I will be available 7 days a week to take care of your fluffy friends; the only time I will be unavailable is every Monday 9:30am-12:30pm. With years of experience walking both my own dogs and those of friends, I’ve learned how to handle dogs with a wide range of needs, from anxiety to reactivity. My background working with children has also taught me the importance of patience, reliability, and trust qualities I bring to every pet I care for.

I have loved having a house full of dogs and getting to know each one from miniature Jack Russells to Huskies.

I am currently working part time and can be flexible to offer drop ins at any time that's best for your pet and walks of various lengths.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life- I currently have a lurcher who can be extremely naughty and a poodle cross so I’m very experienced with any type of dogs. I also currently work at a cattery so I have plenty of experience caring for all animals! I also own rabbits and a horse so very animal orientated This summer I am graduating from univeristy as a student nurse and will be taking the summer off. I have to walk my own dog and take care of my horse and rabbits so I will be very free to look after and help where I can. Animals have always been a massive part of my life and I think they are one of the family so should be treated that way. I just want them to feel as settled as they can be with me so I am very happy to follow instructions however you want your animals looked after.

About: As a devoted dog lover and proud owner of two adorable Shih Tzus, I bring care and experience to every walk. I specialize in small and medium-sized breeds, offering a patient, calm, friendly approach tailored to their needs. Whether it’s a playful stroll or a gentle walk for older dogs, your dog will be treated like one of my own, with love, patience and affection. They will have wagging tails and a spring in their step. This isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I really enjoy. Pet care is a regular and rewarding part of my weekday routine. I’m available Monday through Friday and plan my days around giving pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening check-ins, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and their well-being is always my top priority. I stick closely to the pet’s feeding, walking, and sleeping schedule and ensure their environment is safe. I read their body language and ensure they feel relaxed and confident. I also ensure they are mentally and physically stimulated. I have a current DBS and have done a pet 1st aid course.

About: I have looked after my nan's dogs for a long time now, I take them on walks and go round to sit with them when she goes out. I have also looked after them overnight. I have a causal job currently so as long as I know in advance I can be free on any day, once I have been scheduled in for work I will keep my page updated on my availability. I can board on any day as long as I know in advance. I can accept bookings last minute if it happens to fall on a day when I haven't been asked to work but for certainty please try and book as far in advance as possible. If you have any rules for keeping you pet safe just let me know and I will always follow them carefully, it is my top priority to keep animals safe.

About: I’m currently studying veterinary medicine (just finished first year!) and have 1 1/2 years experience working as a kennel and cattery assistant before I started university meaning I have experience with many different breeds of dog and cat. I am an avid animal lover, I was raised around cats and dogs, and rescued a Hungarian Vizsla 4 years ago who sadly passed away 1 month ago. I have experience with rescue animals and understand the additional time and effort needed to ensure they feel safe and are well-cared for. I am a very active person, I love walking especially when in the company of dogs! I’m currently in about to start year 3 (of 5) of university and so am available on weekends and mostly through the week (depending on your pet’s needs) with the exception of some short periods when I am on placement which Rover will remove from my availability. Dorset - My garden is fully fenced and backs onto a forest, meaning immediate access to walks/adventures. I have a foster spaniel who loves other dogs, and two cats who are very used to dogs. Bristol - I have a small, secure garden

About: I am confident with all breeds, sizes, ages and temperaments. I have owned pets all my life and will always put your pets needs first no matter what. I have a genuine passion for animals and am excited to pursue this as I find it extremely fulfilling. I currently work part time at a kennel and have a very flexible schedule. I spend my free time at the moment mainly lounging around and going on walks with my dog. When looking after a pet in mine or someone else’s home I ensure all their needs are met and that they are as healthy and happy as possible. I do my best to give pets a varied and fulfilling environment by adding enrichments or playing with them. The dogs I work with currently and my personal dog both require good supervision so my supervision skills are very good. I have a high priority for safety, making sure to evaluate and address any hazards.

About: I am a highly experienced dog owner. I am qualified in doggy First Aids (see certificate) and I have enhanced DBS clearance (see certificate). I recently retired from Deputy Headship. I have owned and cared for dogs for more than 45 years. My current dogs are lovable, well trained but barmy labradoodles. Both have had 2 litters and I have learnt much about doggy behaviour and training by raising the 32 puppies. If you chose me to care for your dog/s, I will lavish the same care, attention, love and professionalism on them that I do for my own. I am fully retired so I will have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention that they deserve. I am happy to attend, daytime, evening or weekends. My garden is secure and my pets are able to roam within my boundaries. I always pick up after my dogs and would do the same in your garden. When out walking the dogs will be on leads except by specific arrangement with the owner.

About: Dogs always have this zest for life that is almost unmatched, radiating joy and love wherever they step. At the moment I cannot have pets were I live but have this over flowing cup of love and care to show to pets. I don’t have any training experience at this time but if your dog is well behaved and just needs some extra love and care while you are away I might be a good match for you. I can’t promise your dog won’t put on a few pounds because tasty doggy treats will always be on the menu in my company, with your consent of course 😉! I currently work as a support worker for young people and study psychology with counselling at University. My schedule does fluctuate and can be busy however I often go on walks along the beach and various other places to switch off so we can discuss a time that works for both of us and alternatively if any home care services are needed. Of course your pets safety is at the front of my mind at all times! I’m happy to do a pre visit or a phone call with you to discuss any boundaries, what services you are looking for and any concerns you may have

About: I have years of experience working with dogs in every shape and size. Alongside having dogs of my own, I have fostered many dogs which has given me extensive experience in working with both nervous and senior dogs. I understand every dog is different and some require a different approach to others but I’m confident in my ability to care for any dog. My extensive experience includes providing personalised dog walking services, offering in-home pet sitting, administering medications and addressing special dietary requirements. I’m currently a uni student so have a flexible schedule for waking and caring for your pet. During summer and Christmas holidays I have broader availability to cater to your needs and am happy to work whenever I have a free hour. I’m educated in pet requirements and needs and know how to create a save environment for your pet. I’m happy to fulfil any requests made during your service and can send you photo updates during the day.

About: Hello, my name is Caitlin and I’m 25 years old. I am a fun and enthusiastic dog lover from Ferndown. I am comfortable and confident when handling dogs of all ages and sizes. I currently have a cat of my own and have had many dogs over the years, so understand what it takes to provide a nurturing environment for pets. I have grown up around animals and enjoy spending time with them. I offer dog walking, drop in services and over night pet sitting. If any other services are required, feel free to ask me to see if I am capable to do so. Thank you for your consideration and hope to speak with you soon. I have recently started my own cleaning, care and home help business so I am able to work flexibly to fit my and your schedule. I like to know if a pet owner has a routine that their pet is used to ie being fed at a specific time or being put in a crate to sleep. I try to keep to that as much as possible in order for disruption to be kept to a minimum and that the animal is happy. I also like to know the boundaries that are in place for a pet so I can ensure they stay safe on my watch.
