I would highly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter. She was super considerate in my home and gave my cat all the care and attention she needed. Claire even spotted one of my plants starting to dry up and gave it some water! She was kind and a great communicator. Would book again for sure. Thanks!

About: Owned many dogs all my life, now the proud Mum to two very friendly Working Cocker Spaniels. Completed Canine First Aid course and Canine Body Language course, also completed IMDT course ‘becoming a dog trainer’. Taken part in many dog training courses, gun dog, agility, obedience etc. Stay at home Mum to my beautiful two year old daughter. Your dog won’t be left longer than an hour at a time for my daughter and I to go to the park or pop to the shops. No need to worry about another job being fitted in at the same time as looking after your pet. We are a very outdoorsy Mum and daughter, so unless your pet likes to chill out, we (my daughter and I and the dogs) can be out and about in the beautiful Herts countryside a couple of times a day. Fully enclosed front and back garden which will be available at all times, and supervised. Dogs will be only allowed off lead with your permission and with a reliable recall. You can choose for off lead walks to be in secure enclosed paddocks if needed (additional cost of hiring the paddock). Your pet will be walked with one or both of my Spaniels, unless you request 1:1 walks which I am happy to do.

I was nervous about leaving my cat with a sitter I didn't know for the first time, but that didn't last for long! 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: Hi, I’m a second-year undergraduate student studying Zoo Biology and Animal Science, with a Level 3 Diploma in Animal Management. I’m passionate about animal welfare and have experience working with a wide range of species, breeds, temperaments, and behavioural needs. I’m confident caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens needing patience, routine, and basic training reinforcement, to senior pets who may require medication, gentle handling, or extra support. I understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s normal routine, so I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, exercise plans, enrichment activities, and any specific care instructions closely. Having worked with animals in both practical and educational settings, I’m comfortable with nervous, shy, reactive, or high-energy pets and always aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment for them. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s wellbeing and happiness will always be my top priority I study from home and am currently working on a research project/ dissertation for ky final year at university. This means I am completely open and have no set schedule, flexibility is key. I have qualifications in animal handling and I will always put animals first. My home is safe and so is your fur baby.i have a dog of my own, a little 4yr dachshund and his temperament is very docile and he is recall trained

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. It was one of my favorite jobs I've ever had and it would be my pleasure to help out anyone in or around Hertford who need someone to look after this furry little friend! I'm currently working part time and will either have the day or evening fully open on weekdays to walk or visit your pet! During the weekend, I am more than happy to be fully available to have your pet stay here in my home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can more than likely adhere to your schedule and needs! 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, I’m Amy! 🐾 I’m a passionate animal lover who has grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve had lots of experience dog sitting for family and friends, looking after everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a gentler routine. My priority is always to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to keeping their routine as consistent as possible—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just lots of cuddles. I know every dog (and owner!) is different, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s individual needs. Please feel free to enquire for times so we can match up and make sure your pup is well looked after. ☺️ Pet sitting fits really well into my schedule as I’m able to work flexibly and adjust my time around the needs of the dogs I care for. I have availability most weekends and can often work around weekday requests too, depending on your requirements. I’m happy to discuss times so we can find the best fit for both you and your pup. 🐾 I have a quiet, pet-friendly home with a secure fenced area, and I’m conveniently located near green spaces and plenty of parks—perfect for lots of lovely walks and outdoor adventures.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs since age 13, with hands-on experience across labradors, collies, golden retrievers, labradoodles, Boston terriers, and mixed breeds. For the past three years, my wife, my son Tom, and I have cared for dogs locally through other sitting platforms, earning consistent five-star reviews. We offer a settled family home where dogs follow familiar routines. Feeding times stay consistent, walks match each dog’s energy and needs, and dogs receive daily attention and affection. I watch behaviour, comfort, and wellbeing closely, so owners feel confident their dog feels safe, relaxed, and cared for like one of our own. I work remotely, so dogs stay part of my daily routine rather than fitting around gaps. Walks happen regularly through the day, feeding times stay consistent, and dogs receive attention between work tasks. Care runs alongside looking after my son, so dogs stay included in a calm, structured family day rather than left alone. I care for dogs in a safe, calm home environment and follow each owner’s instructions closely. I focus on routines, supervision, and wellbeing rather than specialist grooming or pampering services. I am not professionally trained in grooming, but I ensure dogs stay clean, comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.

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 also want to make sure you feel safe and secure, so please message me regarding any questions - I respond quick!😊 Fully flexible as this is my full time job! I’m between a few apps, and have a few regulars which keep me busy but have plenty of space! I care for pets in their own home by sticking closely to their normal routine, including feeding, walks, and playtime. 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: Hi, I’m Louise, I’m the proud owner of Woody, my big-hearted 4-year-old Labrador cross (with a mix of Collie, Greyhound and German Shepherd) — he’s a gentle giant who keeps me busy and reminds me every day how much joy dogs bring. Caring for dogs combines two of my biggest passions: spending time outdoors and sharing life with four-legged friends. I regularly look after family dogs and love taking them on long, fun walks. Whether it’s cuddles at home, playtime in the garden, or a good stretch of the legs, I’ll make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and quirks. My goal is to provide a flexible, reliable service that gives you peace of mind and gives your dog the same level of love and attention I give Woody. I’m a stay at home mum so fully flexible with any routine. My children are older teenagers who love dogs. I’m very flexible and caring. We have a fully fenced garden with plenty of room to run around. There is a local park across the road for easy access to walking and I can drive to larger parks/woodlands for exploring.

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: 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

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 ☺️
