House Sitting in East Dorset

“Cam was amazing! Full peace of mind on our first holiday away using Rover Pet sitting services for our 10 month old Chug and 3 year old Fox Red Labrador. He seems a natural with dogs and asked questioned about routine and commands which allowed for a thorough hand over and open to instructions for his stay. We got thoughtful messages, photos and videos of our 2 dogs daily. Communication was great before, during and after the stay. Cam look after the dogs and our home impeccably leaving the house super tidy and clean for our return and 2 very happy well walked and looked after doggies! Would highly recommend him and will book again in the future.”

“We love Sophie! She is so lovely, punctual and tidy, but most importantly she looks after our dog as if he’s her own. We have no need to worry about him and know he’s in great hands. We highly recommend Sophie if you need a sitter! A&S x”

About: I offer years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes personalities and ages. From large Japanese Akitas, through midsize Labrador retrievers to small Pugs. I work full time from home which ensures full time supervision of your pooch. I provide play time & daily exercise and take dogs for morning and afternoon walks. We live in quiet part of Ferndown, 5 minutes walk from King George field. Our garden has a 6ft wooden fence with two lockable doors from both sides of the house and garden the front garden has a metal gate. So there is no chance for escape artists. We have a large garden with plenty of room to run, play and sniff around. It's mostly grass but there is also a patio.

“Shanice was brilliant, put me at ease and followed instructions to the letter. Our puppy loved her and she was so calm and kind. We look forward to having her sit our puppy again!”

“So pleased I found Tom to help dog sit and take Marmite out for walks. I feel so confident and happy leaving Marmite with him. Tom sends photos and updates throughout the day which I really appreciate. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Tom again or to recommend others.”

“We would highly recommend Megan, our 2 corgis’s absolutely love her and are always happy when we arrive home from holiday, she seems to go the extra mile with them and they took to her instantly!”

“Rebecca took excellent care of our loved family dog, Betty. So we could enjoy a short break away without worrying about her. We had frequent updates from a Rebecca with photos and comments. We will be in contact soon to use again!”

About: I know how difficult it is to find somebody you trust to take care of your dog , so I will always make this as easy as possible for all involved. Dogs have been in my family my whole life. I’ve recently lost my Douge De Bordeaux . My gran was a breeder , I spent my childhood summers with Whippets and Labs , at one point there was a Rottweiler , German Shepherd and a Lab in my immediate family. I love giant dogs ! I can send you a quick video of me to say hi when you request me and if you’d like to me meet me beforehand, then please just ask . I work from home and live by the river so your 4 legged family member will be very much cared for! If they enjoy longer walks, weekends will be spent on the beach. Completely trustworthy and I just love spending time with dogs. I don't have children so if you're worried about dogs and children then don't be. Any damage by your dog will be charged. Some of the dogs I look after in my pictures . I can walk your dogs, house sit and look after your pets , or provide drop in for a few hours if you don’t want to leave your pets for an extended time . If you want your dog at your wedding or any other special occasions, please also let me know and I can be there ! ***from the 10th May I am only able to house sit at your home with your pets due a house sale falling through. This does mean your pet will be in their own environment and sometimes better and easier for them *** I work from home, can be available for day care, walks. I will walk your pooch when is best for you and fit into their routine. My garden is fenced and secure and dogs are kept downstairs. I'll always keep the doors open so I'm able to hear anything and also have a dog cam.

“All went smoothly! Ronnie was very happy in Esme’s company! Many thanks.”

“Amy is the kindest, sweetest dog loving person I know. Our dog Stanley loves her so much (more than he loves me!) and little doggies don't lie 💕 when she's around, he follows her everywhere. She talks to him, takes care of him and goes out of her way to make sure he's happy. She is honest, reliable and trustworthy. Amy loves all animals with a special affection for dogs. I trust her completely to regularly look after Stanley when I go away.”

“Josie she has always loved animals and has a passion for animal welfare since I can remember. We have had many guinea pigs and woofability dogs over the years, all of which she loved and cared for. She’s got great communication skills, is happy following clear instructions or routines you provide, and is respectful of others space and possessions. Josie has a wonderful calm energy wherever she goes- great for anxious pets. Don’t let the fact she has no reviews stop you from booking her- she is lovely just new to rover!!”

“Amelia is incredible we trusted her with out dog from the second she met us. She is knowledgeable and trust worthy and did all she could with our dog she went above and beyond what we expected.”

“Amy pet sat for me and did a fantastic job. Freddy is a rescue dog and doesn’t tend to deal well with strangers but seemed to warm to Amy almost instantly. 10/10 service, incredibly friendly- will be using her to pet sit again.”

“I would highly recommend Erin for all of your pet care needs, whether it be sitting, walking or just popping in! She has a multitude of her own animals and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to animals, also filled to the brim with passion!”

“Adam was punctual arriving at the time we agreed. We felt very comfortable leaving him in our home to sit with Nell, who thoroughly enjoyed his company. We will definitely book Adam again in the future.”

“Kyra was great. She arranged a meet up beforehand to be introduced to Fons and kept us updated throughout our evening on how they were doing. She is professional, confident with animals and was very flexible to our needs. Most importantly Fons loved his evening, especially the lovely long beach walk!”

“Paula has looked after my Beagle, Hob loads of times! She is always looking for ways to help out where she can and often makes herself available to look after him at short notice. Hob is always very excited when he see's Paula and knows he's going to have a fun time, she is also right by a woods so he gets lots of walkies! I have no reservations in recommending Paula as a very friendly, helpful and all round star. If you're looking for a dog sitter, walker, friend... you could a lot, lot worse!!”

“Tiggy is the best. I almost don’t want to leave a good review because she’ll get booked up! But honestly she was exactly what my dogs needed. She was tidy and considerate and my dogs love her. Come back soon Tiggy! 😁”

“Karen has looked after my dogs for many years and I'm always happy to leave them with her. They get so excited to see her and she always treats them as if they are one of her own. She is always happy to follow any requests from owners. I can't recommend her highly enough.”

“Connie is a trusted friend who walks my dog for me on occasion, Hector my dog is always excited to see her and they have the best time on their long walks and adventures. I can trust Connie with my dog and would recommend her to others.”
