“Louisa was fantastic with clear messaging and photos of contented cat, helped me to relax while away. Then I came home to a happy, well fed and groomed and well loved cat. Thank you Louisa.”
“Anthony was great! I was worried about leaving my cat for a week for the first time but he was really happy and well looked after when I got back. Will definitely be asking him to look after Catticus again!”
“Rikki was very friendly and easy to deal with, was keen to know everything she needed to be able to look after my mother’s two cats, and proved reliable and a safe pair of hands, and very affectionate with the cats. Will definitely be using her again! ”
About: I've had animals all my life, and worked professionally with horses for over 15 years. I adore animals and am very reliable. I have my own 2.5 year old Vizsla who loves life and is completing gun dog training. I have a few people currently who I privately care for there dogs (house sitting and walking) so lots of references available. I currently work from home so have lots of time for your 4 legged friends, they will only need to be left first and last thing why I'm at the yard (if overnight stays, or if good in the car can come with me). We tend to have little breaks then a long lunchtime walk but can easily be flexible to accommodate your routine! My dog is very friendly to all, and loves to run or go out on sniffing walks! I have a small fenced garden and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. We have a large field opposite and walks all around so lots of room for them to run and play! We normally go further afield at least once a day for a good walk - but can do as much or little as yours requires! Happy for paws to be on furniture and we have plenty of bed - also happy to accommodate your dogs normal routine. I can crate you dog if needed (you to provide crate). Also more than happy to come to yours if you prefer, can stay and walk or offer drop in play sessions, toilet breaks and evening company. Any questions or services required please don't hesitate to ask!
“I cannot thank Ellie enough, she has given me and my husband such good peice of mind for looking after our little cherub. Her communication is incredible, she gives fantastic advise and I love getting updates on how our little pup is during her visits. I cannot rate her highly enough, she is absolutely lovely and you will love her. Xxxx”
“Kerry is wonderful and I highly recommend her! Kerry looked after Luna for me very last minute which was so handy. She responded to my message immediately and was very friendly. Kerry sent me pictures when she was with Luna to re-assure me that all was good. I will definitely be using Kerry again in the future! Thank you :)”
“I had just moved into the neighborhood and Lorna was the first sitter I found for my Winston. I couldn’t have been luckier to have found her. She came over to play with him while I was at work and didn’t mind his stubborn and cheeky behavior when it came time to walking him. I know Winston will be happy to see her again soon!”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember – from cats and guinea pigs to dogs, birds, and even the occasional hedgehog rescue! I currently share my home (and my heart) with two Pharaoh Hounds, a cat, and a rotating cast of muddy paw prints. What sets me apart? I treat your pets like family. I’m calm, confident, and completely unflappable – whether I’m giving meds to a nervous cat, cleaning up after a cheeky pup, or gently caring for senior pets with mobility issues. I've looked after: Dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments (including reactive or anxious ones) Cats, including indoor-only and elderly felines needing extra care Guinea pigs and small animals Birds, including hand-rearing a baby chaffinch (yes, really!) I’m happy to water plants, collect parcels, and send regular updates with photos and stories – so you can fully relax knowing your home and pets are in safe hands. Basically, if it’s got fur, feathers, or a tail... I’ve probably cuddled it. Pet care slots beautifully into my daily routine – it’s one of the best parts of my day! I’m self employed with a flexible schedule, which means I can work around your pet’s needs and stick to their usual routine, whether that’s early breakfast, midday cuddles, or evening visits. I’m used to being up early (thanks to my own Pharaoh Hounds!) and can fit in morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week and weekend. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings or special routines when needed. I do offer house sitting, but this is limited to short stays only. As I have my own dogs at home, I’m not able to take on extended or week-long bookings. Short overnight stays can sometimes be arranged, depending on dates and location. For longer periods, I’m much better suited to daytime care, drop-in visits, and walks, and I’m very happy to support you with a consistent routine that keeps your pets relaxed and well looked after. If you’re unsure, feel free to message and I’ll always let you know honestly what I can accommodate. Basically, if your pet needs me I’ll be there, tail wags and all. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so they feel secure and relaxed while you're away. In your home, I keep everything just as you left it clean, calm, and respectful of your space. I follow your instructions to the letter, from feeding times and medication to quirky habits and favourite nap spots. I’ll also keep an eye on your home watering plants, collecting post, and making it look lived in for extra peace of mind. When pets stay with me (or visit), they’ll be part of the family. I have a secure, pet-friendly environment, plenty of soft places to curl up, and two gentle Pharaoh Hounds who are used to sharing their space. I’m fully insured, treat animals with genuine care and affection, and always provide updates so you can feel connected while you’re away.
About: I've been with pets around me since I was 15 years and never looked back since then. The best decision of my life is having them. They are my closest family. I've been training puppies most of my life. I have 7 plus years of experience in taking care of pets. I have one dog living with me at the moment which makes me more happy to get her new friends. I and my partner Alan mostly work on different days. We both are always home as we work from home.we are mostly home with our pets so your little one can enjoy the entire day of nasty things with us. Your kids are always welcome to sit and run wherever they want, supervised. I would be happy to spoil them with love and cuddles with consent. The house is very safe and has a back yard which is fenced.
About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life and have gained a lot of hands-on experience caring for and training them. My previous dog had three litters of puppies, and we kept one of her puppies. I was involved in raising the litters and have experience caring for dogs at different ages and stages. I attended puppy training with the dog we kept and went on to train him as a working dog, which gave me valuable experience with training, routines, patience and understanding a dog’s individual needs. I also regularly look after friends’ dogs when they are away, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, routines and needs. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I even have a birthday tradition of getting all my friends together for a pub dog walk with all of our dogs! I genuinely enjoy having dogs around and love making sure they feel happy, settled and included. I currently work full time but 2-3 days of the week I work from home. I have plenty of time to give cuddles, have play time and going for a lovely walk in the countryside. I have a spaniel of my own who is used to 2-3 walks a day, sometimes as early at 5-6am then as late as 8-9pm for an evening walk around the block. Dogs for me always come first before myself so they will always be seen as priority. I have a long fenced garden to keep dogs safe and secure. Can offer a crate if needed over night or during the day. We have a very calm chilled spaniel to give your pet company. We also have a cat who has full access of upstairs and dogs are restricted to downstairs only. She loves dogs but will keep her distance when meeting a new dog for the first time.
About: I’ve looked after friends and family’s dogs for the past 3 years. Often for a night or a few weeks when they’ve gone away. This has including feeding, walking, playing with them and lots of cuddles! I have also cared for older dogs who may be deaf, as well as requiring additional help with medication and reassurance. I have also worked for a franchise briefly a couple of years ago, both dog sitting and cat feeding. I have a big love for all animals and love spending time with them! I also have experience of owning my own dog so am used to having dogs around! I am currently working part time and am flexible with my hours! I am home for most of the week so will have plenty of time to play with and walk your dogs! I have a fenced garden and am surround by nature and forest walks. My house is equipped for small- medium dogs and are allowed on furniture. I have plenty of toys and tennis balls and often play fetch in the garden will friends and family’s dogs! In warmer months the door to the garden is usually open for most of the day so dogs will be able to go in and out whenever.
About: I have grown up around animals and have always had dogs and cats at home, so caring for pets is a natural part of my life. While I am new to professional pet sitting, I am confident in feeding, walking and understanding animals’ needs. I am calm, patient and responsible, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets. I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and well cared for while you are away. I have a flexible schedule and can spend plenty of time with your pet. I am available on weekdays and weekends and can adapt to your pet’s needs. I provide a calm, safe and caring environment for every pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, walks and any special needs. I make sure pets feel comfortable, secure and well looked after at all times. I have experience living with pets, so I understand their behaviour and needs.
About: I have always loved looking after dogs or any animals. I have 2 dogs myself and a turtle. They are my world and couldn’t imagine life without them. I can work really well with pet routines and life styles. I work full time in a local nursery in Bordon but always happy to help look after animals even if it is a quick pop in visit in my break to let them outside or to feed them I will always make sure there routine works around me as well. I’ve never cared for someone else’s dog or animal in my house as I have 2 of my own dogs and it will just confuse them but I have always either stayed at that persons house or if they don’t need me to I pop over around the hours everyday to make sure that they are ok and got things that they need.

Very happy with Julia’s services. My cats warmed up to her from the 1st visit and that in itself speaks volumes. She was reliable, professional, she played with them, sent over videos and I was able to enjoy my time away without worrying about my cats. I am grateful to have met Julia and will definitely recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter. Victoria 😊

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.
