“Sarah was amazing looking after our precious Dougie who has a great personality. She has been following exactly the information we have given regarding Dougie's behaviour and kept us fully updated about him with photos and videos. Dougie has never been so settled after leaving him with a sitter which makes us thinking that Sarah is the best we could have. First time booking but more to follow, that's for sure. 100 % recommend her. Thank you.”
“Very happy with Paula and John. They had Ted for 13 nights and kept us up to date with photos of Ted. They seemed to love having him and treated him as part of their family.

“Toffee has had his first stop with Laura last night. Despite toffee and us being worried about being apart for the first time Laura was incredibly calm and considerate and all we needed to do was head off and enjoy our night! Toffee had a wonderful time with Laura and Hugo and relaxed enough to be able to sit and sleep at Laura’s in his first time with her which is a great testament to the calming environment Laura creates. We’re excited to take toffee back in the bear future - thank you Laura! 😊”
“Jerry had such a lovely time @ Rosie’s home. He has made friends for life and can’t wait to rebook for our next adventure. We were sent videos, photos and updates through this visit which made us feel relaxed he was in safe hands. Since we have gotten Jerry home he’s has been tired out having such fun with the girls and Jerry got to do something new today walkies along the canal. I would highly recommend and feel the girls are worth more for their time & care. Love Tasha, William & Jerry.”

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. After searching online for a dog walker for our ‘handful’ of a spaniel whilst we went on holiday for 10 days, Emily came up with incredible reviews and most certainly lived up to them! Updates everyday when our dog was picked up for a walk along with photos. Emily came to our home prior to the holiday for a meet and greet and to make a plan for when we were away. We will definitely be using Emily again in the near future.”
About: I've taken care of animals all my life! Whether it's tiny newborns up to elderly pets. I've currently just finished my Level 3 Animal Management college course which has given me valuable insight into all animals ranging from farm animals all the way to exotic and aquatic animals. It's given me skills on Small animal rehabilitation, Training, Grooming and general health. I have all the certification to prove! I have applied to become a veterinary nurse at my chosen university and i'm awaiting my grades for this year! I have always wanted to become a veterinary nurse since i was a child as i am strongly passionate about animals and their general day to day care. A little bit about my life: I have had pets all my life including dogs, aquatic fish, guinea pigs and hamsters. This has given me a great understanding of the day to day care needed for your pets needs. I have also sat for neighbours, friends and family members when ever i am needed as i couldn't think of anything better than to take care of their furry friends :) I'm currently working part time fully flexible at my workplace, i usually get my rota 2/3 weeks in advance and can always book certain days off if needed to accommodate your furry friends!

Therefore when looking after your animals whether it's a toilet break or lounging around for naps, they will always be in my eye sight to guarantee their safety.

Looking after them has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I understand that every dog is different, so I’ll always tailor my care to suit their individual needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring new places, or simply curling up on the sofa for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved throughout their stay. Your dog will be treated like part of the family in my home. I have a secure, enclosed garden where they can safely play, pets are welcome on the furniture, and we’re surrounded by fantastic walking routes to keep them active and entertained. I can board multiple dogs and will ensure every dog receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and one-to-one care. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, medication (if required), favourite toys, sleeping arrangements, and any special instructions. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and in safe hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! 🐾 I work Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 5:00pm, but I work close to home and can pop back during my lunch break to let dogs out for the toilet, provide company, and spend some time with them. Before and after work, I’ll ensure your dog gets the walks, exercise, playtime, and attention they need. Evenings and weekends are when I’m most available, allowing me to dedicate plenty of quality time to caring for your dog. Whether that’s longer walks, play sessions, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel loved and settled throughout their stay. I’ll always be upfront about my availability and will only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, ensuring every dog receives the care, attention, and routine they deserve. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet will be treated like one of the family. My home has a secure, fully enclosed garden, giving dogs a safe space to play, explore, and enjoy time outdoors. As I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog will receive my full attention and can settle into a peaceful environment. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, medication (if required), and any special instructions you provide. Pets are welcome on the furniture if that’s what they’re used to, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and enrichment throughout their stay. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat both your home and your pet with the utmost respect. I’ll keep everything clean and tidy, stick to your pet’s normal routine, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for. I also work close to home, which means I’m able to pop home during my lunch break for toilet breaks, company, or a quick play, helping to ensure your pet isn’t left alone for long periods.
About: I believe we as humans have been given the gift of animals. The opportunity to interact with them and experience their love and joy for us is such a rewarding and fulfilling feeling. Having grown up with my very own Boxer (Dylan), that instigated my love for dogs even more. For many years I've walked and cared for several dogs of friends and family. Providing me with further knowledge and experience around dogs. Combining my love for keeping active, alongside my passion and interest for dogs is ultimately what I love doing! I am DBS Checked, Canine First Aid Trained & Insured. I'm thankfully now in a position where I currently have full availability and flexibility, Monday through to Sunday, to provide my services. Send me a message and let's take it from there! I currently have a medium sized garden, living on a quiet estate. If needs be, I have a dog bed and gate in my car, if the need to travel further afield arose.
“Excellent walker!! Definetly would recommend. Eddie loved his walk with demetri, constant updates and photos meant I felt at ease leaving him with a new walker. Attention to the smaller details like filling water bowl and wiping up spillages. Will be booking again.”
“Malaya- Skye is new to Rover and truly a rare undiscovered talent, she has a fantastic grasp of both canine training principles and execution, is flexible and willing to heed instruction(s). If you are seeking a dog walker whom has the ability and skill to either introduce, or build upon core training for and upon behalf of your furry friends, then look no further than Malaya-Skye. She and my little Cadbury have built a fantastic relationship thus far, and I know that he is in safe hands during walks. I was impressed by the fact that for each of our four scheduled walks Malaya came with a loose training plan, led by the needs of the dog, asked about reactivity and allergies ahead of time, arrived with treats and thereafter asked me if Cadbury perhaps had any toys that she could utilise during their walks together. Cadbury and I fully endorse Malaya- Skye. Woofs and wagging tails. :)”
About: DISCLAIMER: I received a 1 star review after a dog I took in bit me, and I had to remove the booking. Rover said reviews can be removed, when you are not in fault, but the star average cannot be changed or be removed once submitted. but please view my other reviews to see more accurate representation. I have recently come back to Rover! I am a huge animal lover, and experienced with training and caring for multiple different breeds of dogs and cats. I am fully insured for extra peace of mind. Through rover I have looked after many different breeds, with different levels of needs and health which I have been able to ensure they get the level of care and attention they need. Ensuring they never miss medication, and get good exercise for their needs. :) I am experienced with house sitting, which is usually a better option for your babies if you do have longer trips away, as it keeps them in a familiar environment with much less stress. I will send you lots of pictures and updates to suit your communication preferences! :) I am 31 years old, and have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I’m able to continue training if they are young, and experienced with senior care too. I work remotely full-time so happy to ensure no one is left unattended. Just moved to the Nottingham/chilwell area! Any questions just message! :) I work remotely, full-time so have a lot of flexibility. Your pet will be in constant supervision. My schedule is flexible so I can adjust walking schedules to fit your preferences? When house sitting I try and stick to the routines you have built in your home to ensure they feel as relaxed as possible. I think communication is key, and you will be sent updates in photos and messages as much as you feel comfortable with. I also drive, and have a car so if you needed me to take them to any appointments that’s also a possibility.
About: I have looked after dogs for the past 25 years and have taken in many rescue dogs and supported re-homing therefore I am used to various different breeds and personalities. I work from home so I am available throughout the week therefore someone will be with your dog for most of the time. The only time they would be left in the home is when I have to nip out to the shop ect. I have cameras in the home to keep an eye on them. I am fully animal focused and i love playing and walking with them however I know all dogs are different and will mirror your routines that you have in place so the changes to your baby are minimised

“Juke was well looked after by Grace. She was very accomodating to ourselves on a very busy weekend. Nice photo's sent during his stay. Will definitely be contacting Grace in the future.”
“Emily had a lovely time with Tarnya and her family! Everything about her stay was perfect! She seemed very happy and content and we were sent daily feedback on her progress which was very comforting for both of us. Thank you for a lovely stay and we can highly recommend for any future visits! Thanks again X”
“Ellis was absolutely wonderful with Oz during his 2 night stay! From start to finish, she was incredibly professional, warm and bubbly. It was clear right away from our meet and greet that Oz was going to be in great hands. She kept me up-to date with regular messages and pictures, he was truly spoilt with lots of attention, walks and cuddles. When I picked him up, Oz was super calm and relaxed. Ellis is a lovely person, I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care for their pup! 🐶”
“Rachael was absolutely outstanding!! I had full confidence for her to have my boy. Especially a big boy and Rachel did everything for him, and more! He's came with better skills, and being very looked after. I would HIGHLY recommend Rachael. I shall be asking for her again 😊”
About: I've looked after dogs in the past for family and fostered Guide Dogs in training. Dogs love the large garden and I have a park within walking distance. Paddling pool and toys to play with. Lots of play and walks. I'm retired but have active hobbies that I can work around. Friends visit and if your dog is pub friendly we can visit the local that has a dog bar that has treats and water bowls. I have a large fenced garden with paddling pool in hot weather and shaded areas. There is a park nearby. Comfy beds and toys in the house. Snuggles on the sofa watching tv allowed.
“Sarah was amazing looking after our precious Dougie who has a great personality. She has been following exactly the information we have given regarding Dougie's behaviour and kept us fully updated about him with photos and videos. Dougie has never been so settled after leaving him with a sitter which makes us thinking that Sarah is the best we could have. First time booking but more to follow, that's for sure. 100 % recommend her. Thank you.”
“Shaun is reliable and accommodating, plus always flexible with timings on the day. We always know that Mabel is in good hands when being looked after by Shaun and his lovely family.”
“Maisey had such a wonderful time with nick and his family l knew Maisey was in safe hands. Nick kept us upto date with lots of beautiful pics of Maisey we cant thank you enough for having her and will definitely book Nick in the future”
“Amy was an excellent sitter for our dog, Penn. She was really flexible around our plans, checked in with us in the week beforehand and gave updates throughout the day. Penn was really well looked after and had a great time with Amy's dog, playing in the house and secure garden and being taken on a morning walk. We would really recommend Amy if you are looking for a dog sitter in the Nottingham area.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter. They took excellent care of our dog for several days and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We received regular updates and lovely photos throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. We truly appreciate the kindness, care, and professionalism, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Jack looked after my German Shepherd for one night and provided excellent care throughout. He kept me updated, made sure my dog was comfortable, and was reliable and easy to communicate with. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. I would happily book with Jack again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog boarder. Thank you for your little ones drawing, I've popped it on my fridge.”
“George had a great second time staying with Pui Yan. I received many videos and photos of George having a ball. Pui Yan even taught him a few new tricks (touch and paw) and gave him some puppy perfume. He slept like a log when he got back home!”
“Dexter had an amazing weekend at Olivia's, he is only 4 months old so is still in his crazy puppy phase but Olivia did a fabulous job of keeping him entertained with walks, games and cuddles. All the photos and videos were brilliant and I could tell he was happy there, he will definitely be going back again.”
“Karen is just amazing, I think stitch was particularly anxious but she dealt with him patiently, gently and went out her way to go fetch him bones to distract him, Karen took amazing care of him. She gave me updates and sent pictures.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have had dogs almost my entire life. For the past 2 and a halve years I have been fostering dogs for a rescue, but I had to stop because I was required to go back into the office for work. I work from home on Friday and Monday though, so can dog-sit for long weekends I will provide multiple walks a day and make sure your dog(s) get enough play/attention. I work from home on Friday and Monday and the weekends are free. Our day would consists of multiple walks, time to play and cuddles.😁 I have been an experienced foster for rescue dogs, but had to stop because of work requiring me to go back into the office 3 days a week. Your dog will be well taken care of and they will get loads of attention. I will send updates every day.
“Laura looked after our miniature schnauzer for a weekend and we will be booking some additional dates. We were really happy that he was well taken care of and we received lots of updates and pictures. Our dog can sometimes have a bit of separation anxiety at night when our normal routine is disturbed but we were really happy that Laura handled it and accommodated for him. Overall, it looked like he had a great time and was part of the family for the weekend.”
“Would highly recommend Jayne and Brian to care for your dog, from the start we had great communication, a lovely meet visit, they live in an ideal place for lots of walks. Our dog Murphy has had a great time, lots of pictures of him chilling on the boat, walks and paddles in the water. Jayne has kept us updated every evening of his activities during the day along with pictures, we looked forward to the evening time to get our pup update. Murphy has been very well cared for and loved, we couldn’t recommend highly enough, thank you Jayne and Brian”
“For most trips, we leave the girls with family, but a big family holiday meant we needed to find another solution. Kennels weren’t right for us, so we turned to Rover. We went through a lot of profiles, but Helen’s really stood out: a peaceful location and a one‑dog policy, which was ideal as one of our girls is very anxious around other dogs. After a pre‑visit, we felt completely reassured. During their stay, Helen sent daily updates and photos showing how settled and content they were — from relaxing around the house to enjoying their walks. They looked genuinely happy. We’d absolutely recommend Helen and her family. If we need a sitter again, they’ll be our first choice.”
