“Julia was amazing, she made a right fuss of little Jinx and looked after him while I was away for three nights. She made a big effort and kept in contact while I was away with photos! Thanks so much Julia 🐈⬛”

“Jess was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Nala. Nala is super excitable and can be reactive at times, so I was a little anxious about leaving her. But Jess handled everything so smoothly. She really knew how to work with Nala’s energy and made her feel totally comfortable. Jess also kept me updated the whole time with messages and pictures, which made me feel so much more at ease. It was great to know Nala was having a good time and I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter – Jess was awesome!”

“As this was our first time being away from Ollie for a weekend, we were so nervous leaving him. Fallon put our worries to ease and took such great care of our cheeky boy! We were so glad to see Ollie was having a great time from all the photo and video updates. We can’t thank Fallon enough! We will definitely book again :)”

“Erin is ABSOLUTELY amazing! I would HIGHLY recommend for any of your fur babies. Erin sent me regular text messages and pictures throughout my time away and always kept me updated. Sequoia absolutely adored her time with Erin and was given the BEST care. Sequoia is a 4 month old puppy and Erin was even so kind as to keep up with her training routine while I was away - I came back to my perfectly behaved puppy with absolutely no training regression! Highly, highly recommend!”

“Pipa the dog and Oreo and Biscuit the cats really loved Sidney. Oreo in particular isn't keen on strangers but Sidney he liked so she must have done something right haha! Pipa had a lovely day out during Sidney's stay too. House was left lovely and tidy and all animals well looked after! We would definitely be happy to have Sidney again :)”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life from Huskies to Chow/labs and currently have an 8 year old Boston Terrier that I trained myself from a puppy. Love dogs energy and affection. Just moved to Glasgow from Canada with my Boston Terrier always out for walks and adventures and would love for him to make some new friends. I have a fenced yard and live close to open fields with plenty of good walking trails. Live within walking distance to off leash dog park.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I lost my own dog of 12 years last April, so I know how much pets mean to people and how important it is knowing they’re in safe hands. Since meeting my partner, his dog took to me straight away and we’ve become really close — I spend most of my free time with him. I’m used to both big and small breeds, including Border Collies, Staffy/Akita mixes and Cocker Spaniels. I also help care for family members’ and neighbours’ dogs regularly, whether that’s walks, feeding, playtime or just keeping them company. Dogs usually warm to me very quickly and I genuinely just love being around them. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention, care and company they need. I’m available for walks, drop-ins and pet sitting throughout the week and weekends. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, so I’m always happy to fit my routine around their needs and keep them comfortable and settled. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first with me. I’m very attentive to routines, behaviour and making sure pets feel relaxed in their environment. I’m experienced with both large and small breeds and understand that every dog is different. Whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules, long walks, playtime or just giving them company and reassurance, I’ll care for them like they’re my own.

About: I have loved animals all my life and have grown up around both cats and dogs. I had a German Shepherd and have owned cats for most of my life, and regularly spend time with my boyfriend’s parents Cockapoo. As we sadly don’t currently have any pets I am really looking forward to having some animals around again! We are a couple in our late twenties living in Hyndland, both working hybrid and so there would always be someone in with your pet during the day ❤️🐾 We both work full time however both work hybrid and my partner is off every Friday. There will always be somebody around! We are available for walks, boarding, cat sitting or popping over to feed cats too if that is needed. We have a car so can get about easily! We stay in a flat in Hyndland so unfortunately don’t have a garden however we have lots of parks nearby, a shared garden outside and a car which we would use for bigger more exciting walks 🐾 otherwise we are really near to both Victoria park and kelvingrove park.
About: I’ve taken care of four cats and a dog. My dog is 6 years old, we’ve had past dogs, so I have puppy experience too! I work freelance and part-time so can take care of pets around the clock. I have two flatmates, who are all friendly with animals and are happy to have them if need be! I’m used to be very close with pets and giving them a very personal and gentle care experience. I’ve had pets sleep on the bed, regular cuddles or just days when they want to be left alone.
“Bruce housesat for us and took care of our little dachshund Sigmund for 6 days while we were travelling, and was just amazing. From start to end, he was just amazing - lovely, warm personality, very loving to animals and very knowledgeable as well. Our dog is a bit of a character and can be very reactive/aggressive with other dogs and strangers, but Bruce handled all of that in stride, trying various training techniques on walks and even got Sigi cuddling and playing with his own young dog. He has a great way with animals for sure and just hugely reliable and pleasant to deal with. Whilst we were gone he sent us loads of updates and videos/pics, and also took amazing care of our apartment. Hugely recommended!”

About: Grown up owning a Labrador and being surrounded by a number of family dogs of various sizes including rescue dogs. Our household welcomes all kind of paws and pups. I work shifts and my partner works hybrid (home and office). Between us there is someone home, keen to cuddle or up for a walk. We occasionally look after family and friends dogs when required. I have a fenced, secure garden. A box full of toys and treats for all dogs to enjoy. A dedicated cuddle chair calling out for a dog snuggle.
About: I’ve had the privileged of being a dog mom to my little one for 15.5 years. From puppyhood to his senior days, I have learned and grown with him. His final years were pretty hands on with vet visits, medication and dietary changes which involves home cooked meals on the daily. Our little ones deserve nothing but the best and that is exactly what I can offer. I went above and beyond for my little boy and I promise that my level of care for your furbaby would be nothing less. I make fresh daily meals, frequent walkies and drivies. I am well acquainted with administering medications and keeping to a specific diet if required. I’m happy to have a detailed discussion with you on your requirements for your little one xxx I work from home 3 days a week, 2 days in the office. During those 2 days, I am would be home during my lunchtime to walk/feed the lil one. I have a lovely apartment in the west end. My home is dog friendly as I had design it to accommodate my former dog. My home was designed with my dog in mind. He was my joy and he loved our home. Free roam, pet friendly cleaning products, huge communal garden space and within walking distance to the botanics. The building is very dog friendly.
About: I have had my dog for 9 years and love cuddling and walking him. I have just moved back from University and am looking for something different to fill my time before I move onto the next stage. I have quite a flexible schedule and so can fit in walks throughout the day! I have just moved back from uni so currently don’t have anything else apart from this! In my care, let’s receive plenty of love, attention and playtime. I will ensure they have a comfortable space, provide regular water and feeding, maintaining cleanliness and follow any specific care instructions from owners.

About: I’ve had cats since I was a child I have a lot of experience, I’ve got a great set up for them in my home, I have two cats who are indoor cats. They are super friendly and sociable and chill and I’ve got Cat tree. I’ve got Cat scratchers. I’ve got a 3 m long couch that they like to chill on loads of extra food bowls et cetera. I can provide a chill environment for any pets that need watched and I’m very flexible on dates and times and periods of time that the cats would need to stay with me so I’m a good pick, I know what I’m doing. I also have experience watching dogs and have had a childhood dog who I looked after a lot , I’m able to take them out for frequent toilet breaks and walks , they are also allowed on my couch or on me bed if they feel more comfortable there. I have a 15 month old son and I have two cats. I am home 24/7 so I can give any pets my undivided attention, I also have experience with puppies and adult dogs I have two very friendly and chill cats who could keep your current company but they also like just sit on the couch and chill all day so if your cat or dog is more socially anxious then it’ll be fine. The cats won’t be pestering them they like to chill and do their own thing too. I have a ragdoll and a Bengal cat and they’re both boys And they’re the best friends. any cats in my house are allowed to free room I have two bedrooms a three meter long couch they like to hang out in the kitchen sometimes their car tree I’ve got multiple layers of car. I’ve even got a little balcony which I could let them out if they wanted, but it’s a locked my cats don’t really go out there.
About: I have experience caring for my own dog as well as looking after several cats, giving me confidence in providing loving, reliable care for different types of pets. I work full-time Monday–Friday from 8:30am–4:00pm, so I’m best suited for pets that are comfortable during working hours. I’m available for morning and evening care on weekdays, with much more flexibility on weekends for house sitting, cat care, and longer stays. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while keeping to their usual routine as much as possible. In a pet owner’s home, I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep litter trays clean, refresh water regularly, and give plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I can also ensure the safety of your home, keeping things clean and tidy and be completely respectful. I can also water plants. I’m happy to send photo updates for peace of mind and always keep the home tidy and secure.

About: Hi! I am Miri (she/her), I am 27 and work remotely in the Charity sector. I am caring, sensible and reliable and have a big love for cats and dogs - missing my bub Carlo who is at home with my parents very much! Growing up, we always had pets so looking after them feels second nature to me and brings me so much joy 💛 I work from home and my work are very flexible, so am available for drop-in services twice a day (before work/ lunch/after work). For dog boarding I can provide breaks for playing and going outside every 2-4 hours :) When I come to your home, I will be patient whilst your pet gets to know me and do everything I can to create a comfortable and trusting environment for them. For boarding, we have a fenced garden and front garden as well as direct access to both.
About: I've had dogs since childhood, a German Shepherd called Rebel and a Russell terrier called Spencer and I loved them both very dearly. I have great memories of them and hope to make more with your pets. I'm a part time football coach and with the season over for the summer, I have a lot more free time to look after your pets. I am currently at any time during the day for dog walking and pet sitting. Situated in the West End, I live close to the Botanic Gardens and Kelvingrove Park so there's no shortage of places to walk and play. I live in a flat with an enclosed communal garden which is ideal for over night pet sitting. The area is quiet meaning that more anxious dogs can properly relax.
The median cost per night for house sitting in East Dunbartonshire is £30

Highly recommend Nina. She was flexible, communicative, professional and most of all our dog loved her. Nina looked after our dog and our home perfectly for a week. She sent regular updates while we were away and it was very clear the Harris was having a fantastic time with her.

Catherine was amazing with Rudi! He can be a handful at times but she knew exactly how to handle him. She kept me in the loop throughout the day, sending some great pictures and videos too. Most importantly, our dog loved her and Catherine made sure he was well looked after. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a competent and kind dog sitter :)

Lisa was everything whilst on my holiday, Came to meet the cats and everything clicked into place, i just knew i was leaving them with a fantastic individual. When it came time to leave, Lisa reassured me and when away? So many pictures and updates, she was fantastic. Even on the way back, coming in, everything was taken care of, the cats were so happy and well groomed. She is a dream for an anxious cat parent. If you don’t travel, or go away from your kitties much, she is the one i would book in a heartbeat once again. Once again Lisa, thank you so much for everything you’ve done this weekend, it has been an absolute wonder!!

Pipa the dog and Oreo and Biscuit the cats really loved Sidney. Oreo in particular isn't keen on strangers but Sidney he liked so she must have done something right haha! Pipa had a lovely day out during Sidney's stay too. House was left lovely and tidy and all animals well looked after! We would definitely be happy to have Sidney again :)

We had Andrea look after Finn for the first time, and he was really happy with her from the start. She kept us very well updated throughout, and it was so reassuring to see how content and comfortable he was. As a vet student, Andrea clearly has a great understanding of animals, and she took very good care of Finn with lots of cuddles and walks. We would highly recommend Andrea and happily book with her again. Thank you Andrea!

This was our first time having Clarrie look after Finn and she took wonderful care of him. We could see how happy he was with her from our first meeting and he had a fantastic time with lots of walks and fun. Clarrie kept us updated with great communication from start to finish, which meant we could relax and enjoy our time away knowing he was in safe hands. We would highly recommend Clarrie and will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much, Clarrie!

As this was our first time being away from Ollie for a weekend, we were so nervous leaving him. Fallon put our worries to ease and took such great care of our cheeky boy! We were so glad to see Ollie was having a great time from all the photo and video updates. We can’t thank Fallon enough! We will definitely book again :)

This is the third time Alys has looked after our home and our two dogs - Blondie and Clyde. As on the other occasions she was excellent. She really looked after our dogs well. The dogs absolutely love her. She sent regular photos and updates and she left our home in immaculate condition. We can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you for everything Alys.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred East Dunbartonshire walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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.
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 .
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 Dunbartonshire 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. 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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
