Molly came over to meet Kylo before I left, and once looking after him I received regular updates and pictures which I appreciated! I knew he was being looked after well and would definitely recommend”

About: I absolutely adore dogs and cats and have been around them and have taken care of them throughout most of my life. I have a professional background in pet care as I have worked for two different services while living in New York City (Barkly Pets and Oh To Be A Dog) where I traveled all around the city visiting and walking dogs.

I live in a house in Hertford that has a fairly small fenced in garden where your pet can use to relieve themselves or sunbathe. I also have a very cool basement where your pet can go if it's a bit too warm outside. There is also a huge and beautiful park right near my house where I can take your dog for nice long walk as well. I will make sure to have water and snacks on hand as well if they are ever hungry or thirsty as well.

About: Hi! My name is Amy! 😊I’m a caring, responsible animal lover with lots of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve spent plenty of time around pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, so I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs. I also regularly join my friend, who is a full-time professional dog walker, which has given me valuable experience handling multiple dogs, practicing safe walking techniques, and understanding proper pet care in everyday situations. This experience has helped me become confident, attentive, and calm when caring for pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own—whether that means fun walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking closely to feeding and medication schedules. I know how important trust and communication are, so I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I’d love the chance to care for your furry family member!

I always respect the home by keeping things tidy, locking doors and windows, and making sure pets are safe before I leave. Regular updates and photos are always provided.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs and horses since I was 10 and would love to have your pets stay in my cottage. I'm currently have a flexible working arrangement which means that I am often working from home during the week. I am also available for boarding at weekends. I am surrounded by countryside, with plenty of options for dog walking right on my door step. I dont have any other pets at home and just share my cottage with my lovely partner Jamie. We have a small enclosed front garden which is perfect for quick toilet breaks and sunbathing. Happy to arrange any pre booking meetings, if you want to check out our setup. Look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon!
About: We have grown up around dogs and cats all our lives!

About: My family have always had pets! I have been brought up with cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs. Animal care is my passion! My close family have cats and dogs, so if they’re busy or at work I do tend to help them out by taking them on walks. I have one cat, and I’m currently in the process of convincing my partner to rescue a dog with me! We both love animals so this is certainly the first step! I do work full time in a school, so I get all of the holidays off the same time as the students. However on the days that work, early morning walks/check ins or evening walks/check ins would be no issue at all. And of course there’s weekends that I’m free as well. My cat is super super loving and calm, my garden is fairly big and there’s a fence all the way around so there would be no safety issues
“I really appreciated Karolina’s help with checking in on my cat while I’m at work. It was a very last minute request and she didn’t hesitate to assist. She documented her visit with loads of pictures and clear communication which I really appreciate. I feel much more relaxed knowing my cat will be alright at home until I’m back!”

About: Hello 😃 I work as an equine therapist in the Barnet area, and live in Hertford. I work on-site M-T and wfh on Fridays. I am available to take your dog for a walk first thing or in the evenings; if I have them boarding then I can take them to work with me (behaviour dependant 😜), but I’m pretty flexible so please do get in touch with your needs. I love animals and although I’ve never had my own dog, I have been looking after my friends puppy for over a year, from when he was just a few months old, and spend lots of my time with the dogs at the yard. I work at a stables, so I can have your dog with me all day if they are well behaved. I’m always happy to chat on the phone to discuss further 😃 Although I don’t have a garden, I love long walks, so your dog can have as much exercise as needed. I’m happy to allow pets on the sofa, but am also happy to keep your boundaries. I don’t allow pets on my bed.
About: While I’ve spent a lot of time caring for cats, my love for dogs is just as strong—and I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments through sitting for friends, family, and neighbours over the years. From playful puppies to older dogs who need a slower pace, I’ve cared for them all. I understand how important consistency, calm energy, and clear communication are when it comes to looking after dogs—especially when they’re adjusting to someone new. Whether it’s sticking to a regular feeding routine, administering oral medication, or making sure they get enough exercise and attention, I’m dedicated to giving every dog the personalised care they deserve and acknowledging when your pet requires nurturing, affection and play time. I’m confident with walking, feeding, basic grooming (like brushing and wiping muddy paws!), and giving your dog the companionship they need while you’re away. I also make sure to learn each dog’s individual personality and preferences—some love long walks, others prefer cuddles and quiet time—and I adjust my care accordingly. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, it’s always been a dream of mine—so caring for yours is truly meaningful to me. I’ll treat them like part of the family, ensuring they’re safe, comfortable, and most importantly, happy! I currently have a commitment which durates to just 3 hours a day, Monday to Friday (3 PM – 6 PM), which leaves me with plenty of time and energy to care for your furry family members! 🐾 I’m available and flexible every day—including weekends and bank holidays—and I’m more than happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need early morning check-ins, midday walks, evening cuddles, full-day care or even overnight stays, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s comfort and routine come first, and I’m here to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both the family and your pet. At home, I have one very spoiled Ragdoll cat who even has his own house attached to ours! While he’s a house cat, we’ve created a safe, secure outdoor space so he can explore freely. He’s treated like royalty—endless cuddles, enrichment, and affection—and I bring that same level of care and compassion to every pet I look after. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’ve always dreamed of having one. So caring for your baby will genuinely fill a little hole in my heart 💛 Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the garden, or just a comfy cuddle session, I’m ready to give your pet the same love and care I give my own. Although I understand that every pet is different, I acknowledge their individual needs and always provide the best possible care for them. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, senior, or needs medication or special attention—I adapt to their personality and routine to ensure they feel completely safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away.
About: I’ve shared my life with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and for the past few years I’ve been caring for pets in their own homes while their owners are away. I provide calm, attentive care, making sure dogs get the exercise, play, and mental stimulation they need, and cats feel secure, comfortable, and understood. I treat every animal as an individual, respecting their routines and personalities so they feel truly at ease. I’ve owned dogs for 40 plus years. They have all been rescue dogs. My favourites are Schnauzers- I’ve had three including 2 giant schnauzers. I love all dogs and animals including cats, rabbits, goats and horses. I’m retired and lots of love and attention guaranteed. I’m a retired lady with lots of free time to look after your dogs and other pets. I have transport and more than happy to take dogs for walks. I expect to be with them for the majority of the day and overnight always. I provide gentle and attentive care for senior dogs. I prefer to look after your dogs in their own home as that’s where they are usually most happy but am open to other options as required. I always clean up after them so you will never come home to a garden looking like a dog toilet!
About: We have both grown up in family homes with dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to us. From puppies to older dogs, we understand their needs, routines, and personalities. We frequently help friends and family by looking after their dogs, giving walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. Having recently moved into our own home together, we’re excited to welcome dogs into our lives again and provide a safe, loving environment where they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. We both currently work full time Monday-Friday therefore we have our weekends free for pet care. Week evenings will also be available on request as well as some day times during the week due to working from home flexibilities. Please message us for more details/any questions We have a fenced garden with a locked back gate, no side entrance to garden meaning no side escape route. Locked front and back doors at all times, we can crate your dog if needed. Dog walks can be on/off lead as per individual request and training of your dog.

About: Hi, my name is Gemma. I have grown up with all kinds of animals all my life. From dogs, cats, chinchillas. All the way to the littlest ones like bearded dragons and even DUCKS! I know exactly how much your furry friends mean to you because I’ve always felt that same bond with my own. Whether your dog needs a fun afternoon adventure or your pet needs some dedicated evening company, I’m here to help. I offer walking and sitting services every Monday through Friday, specifically in the afternoons and evenings. I offer more availability on school breaks and holidays. I work at my other job from 9am-2:30pm Monday to Friday. So I am available to be with your pet all afternoon and evening! School holidays and breaks your pet has my whole availability, all day Monday to Friday. Please note: I don’t work Saturday's or Sundays due to my own baking business. The most important thing is to listen to your inquiries. You give me the duties and I’ll handle the rest. I will ask certain questions like What’s their behaviour like? Do the need medications or any health issues? Emergency contacts and your vets contacts. What are they like on walks? Any favourite toys/games? And whole lot more!
About: With years of hands-on experience as a devoted dog owner, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior, needs, and communication. What makes me unique is my intuitive approach to individual dog personalities. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care. Whether it’s building trust with a rescue, managing high-energy breeds, or creating routines that support both mental stimulation and calm, I tailor my approach to each dog’s temperament, age, and background. From daily walks and training reinforcement to grooming, nutrition, and health monitoring, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, seniors dogs, gaining practical knowledge in everything from socialization to medication management. I’m not just experienced—I’m passionate. Dogs aren’t just pets; they’re companions, and family. That belief drives my commitment to giving them the best life possible. I am available morning noon and night I can also come and walk your dog whenever you need. I can also do long or short term boarding. I’m an active, animal-loving woman with a real passion for spending time with dogs. I have a secure, fenced garden that’s perfect for safe outdoor play, plus I’m lucky to live near beautiful open fields—ideal for long, enriching walks and plenty of sniffing adventures! I truly understand that dogs are sensitive, social animals who don’t enjoy being left alone. That’s why I’m committed to giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I love to play, cuddle, and simply be present with them, making sure they feel relaxed, happy, and loved at all times.

Cat owners share their Rover experiences - East Hertfordshire
First time I've used Rover and Claire to look after our elderly cat. Came home to a very contented cat and everything was spotless. Claire provided me with a detailed daily update, together with photos. The updates really give you peace of mind when you're away from your pet. Our return home got delayed by a day and Claire didn't hesitate in agreeing to carry on for an extra day at very short notice. I would definitely recommend Claire to anyone in need of a pet sitter ☺️

I could not praise Molly enough for looking after our kittens. She was very kind to keep us updated and was very helpful with lovely photos and videos so we could spend holiday knowing the kittens was well looked after. She is definitely our only choose for a pet sitter! Thank you for everything Molly. And your kindness shown to us who was so nervous leaving pets for the first time! You are super star! ⭐️ Mabel and George can not wait for our next holiday so Molly will spoil them with cuddles and games!

There are 330 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in East Hertfordshire. About 80% of East Hertfordshire sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. 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.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
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.
