“Can’t fault Keri and her care for my dog cookie!! She went me regular updates and pictures whilst on walks which filled me with confidence. She’s a lovely lady, friendly and caring both to myself and cookie! Would 100% recommend Keri to anyone !”


About: I first started caring for other peoples' animals when I was 11 years old. I made my own (very bad) website, and filled my parents' garden with hutches and runs, looking after rabbits and guinea pigs primarily. When I started university in 2017, I began looking after cats and dogs through a different pet care site (Tailster). I've cared for breeds from chihuahuas to huskies, and adapt my style of care based on the stimulation and attention they require. I adore animals; I currently live on a boat but if I had more space I'd be tempted to adopt my own dog (or two, or three...). I have my own mischievous tuxedo cat called Jeeves, who is skilled in nighttime gymnastics and turning on taps. Consequently, I cannot offer overnight stays or day boarding on the boat. Your dog wouldn't come back the same. I'm new to the Rover platform, but looking forward to getting started and meeting your pet! At the moment I'm working freelance, so I am extremely flexible with my time. I can work around your animals' needs and schedules as needed. If you're interested in my services, I'll talk to you about what your pet needs, and come to meet you. I ensure that I work within a pets' boundaries, and build trust with both them and you!

Depending on the service you need, I am flexible and will try my best to cater to the personal needs of each client .

About: I have a wide range of animals and also volunteer at a local wildlife rescue and rehab. Animals have always been my passion and therefore I have developed many years of experience caring for them. Also as a qualified human nurse I am very responsible, reliable and knowledgeable when it comes to emergency situations such as injury or illness. I only work one day a week on a Monday as a nurse. The only time I am away from the house is for 15 minutes twice a day for the school run. I could possibly offer a pick up and drop off service in the local area. I can offer care for many different pets either at my home or yours. I have a very larger fenced garden and a very friendly female dachshund. I also care for my friend’s female Dachshund two days a week.

About: I’m Georgia, originally from Jersey Channel Islands, I have recently moved to Roydon Marina Village living on a narrow boat! I have over a decade of dedicated experience caring for a variety of animals. For the past ten years, I’ve cared for my two horses, Seven and Louis. Alongside them, my cat Indie has been part of my life for just as long and lastly I have my dog Stanley. The marina and the surrounding areas provide many nature walks and tracks down the canals perfect for summers dog walks. I am happy to walk dogs off lead or on lead, whichever is preferred. I’m also happy sticking to routes and areas preferred by owners as I can travel with my car. (Dogs will remain on lead at all times on the marina until on the boat) I am starting a new job as a machine engraver working with my father, which is minimal hours a week. I am available on short notice, Monday to Sunday any time of day to fit the needs of owners. As mentioned, I live in Roydon Marina Village, on a narrow boat which is situated next to a farm. The Marina has many grassy areas and outdoor seating areas to take the dogs out for a toilet break.

(My dog absolutely loved her and is sitting with the biggest smile on her face in the pictures). As we were out all day, we gave Lauren the key to our house, she is extremely trustworthy, very reliable, caring and loves animals. I cannot recommend her services enough, and would not hesitate to have her look after my animals again, Thank you Lauren”
