About: I have been around animals all my life and was lucky enough to grow up with dogs, cats, horses, rabbits and hamsters- to name a few. I am a very loving, relaxed and laidback pet owner and love being around animals. I happily share my sofa and bed with my pets, so if that is something your dog would like, they would feel right at home when staying with me. My dog Oscar is a friendly and playful British bulldog and I also have 2 x 10 year old cats so any dog visiting would have friends to play with. I also have experience looking after puppies as well as older dogs. I work 4 long day a week but am free over the weekends to look after your dog. I generally walk Oscar once a day for an hour but sometimes he gets an additional half hour walk as well so can easily offer this for your dog. I have a large enclosed garden and space in the house to keep any dog separate from Oscar at nighttime if needed. There is also space for a crate if you prefer your dog to sleep in a crate.
“Tereza was a brilliant host for our dog Rossi. She is super-calm and immediately won over Rossi. She was great with communications and sent loads of photos. 100% recommended!”
“Five stars isn't enough for Sotiria! She took care of our dog, Bandit, during the bank holiday, and she was absolutely brilliant. Professional, caring, and Bandit clearly adored her. Kept us well updated and sent lots of cute pictures as well! We're so grateful and will definitely be using her again!”
“Rosie, our Old Tyme Bulldog, stayed with Amanda and her family for a week while we went on holiday. We would highly recommend her. Amanda and her family clearly love dogs and Rosie had a great time. Amanda sent us regular updates, photos and videos throughout the week so we didn't have to worry whether Rosie was okay as we had videos of her enjoying herself. It was really reassuring. Great communication throughout. Rosie will definitely be staying with Amanda again and we'll be checking her availability before we book our next holiday :-)”
“This was the firsts time we have used this service and the Steve and his family was excellent. Regualar updates and Luna my dog was looked after to high standard, which allowed us to enjoy wedding we was at knowing she was in safe hands many thanks again”
“Julia was absolutely amazing with Safia ❤️ From the very beginning, she was caring, attentive, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. She kept me updated throughout the stay with detailed messages about walks, food, water, playtime, and how Safia was doing emotionally, which gave me so much peace of mind, and the most thorough report about her day. She even washed and dried Safia’s blanket after a little accident without hesitation, such a kind gesture that truly shows how much she cares! Safia clearly felt comfortable and loved with Julia and her family, and it made me so happy to hear how well she got along with everyone 😊 I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person. I would trust Julia again without a second thought and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, warm, patient, and genuinely loving with dogs. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Safia 🐾”
About: I've looked after animals my entire life. I come from a family full of different kind of animals so I care for them very well. I’m available at any time during the week and weekends so I have plenty of time to look after your fury friends! Just let me know when suits you best :) I will be walking your dogs so I will ensure that I will keep a bottle of water on me at all times and a small bowl so they can drink. I will also make sure that I carry some treats with me too and a dog toy so they can play!
“Amazing! Charlie had the best time, meeting new friends and being treated so well. Aleksandra sent lots of daily updates, with videos and pictures. I had no worries at all, I have collected a very happy dog. And will be recommending to my friends as well as rebooking myself. Could not have picked a better sitter ❤️ thank you so much”
“Shaneela was absolutely fabulous from the first message. Never did anything like this before and she made it a very easy and calm experience. Super friendly and took amazing care of my cat for 5 days sending me messages and updates every single day. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her again in the future. Thankyou”
“I do not have to words to explain how fantastic Ivana, Andrew and Michela are, they are just such a wonderful, loving and caring family who looked after our 2 year old work cocking Marley for 4days/3 nights. From the initial meet and greet I was completely put at ease and knew I had found the perfect family to look after our fur baby. They treated Marley like part of the family and gave him lots of snuggles and fuss. Ivana’s communication was excellence and she regularly sent me messages, photos and videos each day. Marley had a fantastic little break and loved his stay. I am already planning for Marley’s next stay with Ivana and her family and plan to repeatable book with her, I feel so thankful to have found her on Rover.”
About: I live with 2 British shorthair (boys) and 1 Schnauzer (girl). And I have real, hands on dog care experience, including raising my own Schnauzer. I am comfortable with both the practical side of dog care and the emotional side, meaning I can handle routines properly while also making sure your dog and cat feels safe, engaged, and relaxed. I am reliable with timings, careful with doors and leads, and I give clear updates. You can expect a sitter who treats your dog and cat like a loved family member❤️ I’m a PhD student and I work from home almost full time. That means I am around for consistent routines, timely feeding, regular toilet breaks, and the kind of steady company that many pets prefer. I am not rushing in and out around a long office day, and I can adapt my day to a pet’s normal rhythm rather than forcing them to adapt to mine. I live in a one bedroom flat and I take home safety and hygiene seriously. I currently have two cats at home and one dog. My dog also spends time with my boyfriend in Birmingham sometimes, so I am very used to adjusting routines smoothly and keeping everyone settled and secure. I run my home in a calm, structured way. Doors and windows are always checked, food is stored safely, and I keep pet areas organised so there is no chaos around bowls, litter, or toys. I am careful about separating spaces when needed, supervising introductions, and making sure every pet has a comfortable place to rest without being bothered. Cleanliness is non negotiable for me. Even with pets in the flat, it stays clean and tidy all the time. I have a consistent routine for litter trays, floor cleaning, wiping surfaces, washing bowls, and keeping fur under control. My cleaner is genuinely impressed every time she comes, which I consider a very serious compliment. Most importantly, I treat trust as something you earn. I follow instructions closely, I do not take risks, and I keep owners updated clearly. Your pet will be cared for in a safe, calm, and well managed home.
“Just picked Nellie up after a weekend with Lewis. Love the home from home environment where she was well cared for and was sent updates and photos of her stay. Would definitely recommend Lewis. Thank you so much for looking after her 🐕😊”
“We had a great experience with Maria taking care of our potato, Rupert. She was responsible, communicative, and very loving toward him. It was clear that Rupert felt comfortable and happy with her. Maria gave us great peace of mind while we were away, and we would absolutely trust her again in the future.”
About: I have owned dogs for over 8 years and now work with dogs as my career. I am a Canicross coach and have taught many different dogs in the sport. I provide ad hoc care for friend’s dogs and have experience in dealing with various behavioural needs. As a Canicrosser I can also provide short (suitable to your dog) runs in place of walking, please request if interested I am a self employed running and Canicross coach with 2 dogs of my own, and am therefore in the home a lot . My partner is a fire firefighter and therefore shift work means he is in the home for long periods of time, although whilst in the home he will never left with sole care of any dogs - rest assured they will remain my responsibility at all times. I have a toddler who visits his father regularly and therefore will offer pet care during hours and days / nights that he is not here. I have high exercise need dogs and am used to ensuring they have all of their needs met I have a small fenced garden and 2 of my own dogs living in the house. Any dogs staying will likely be with me at all times but any requirement of me leaving the house will be agreed with the owner before booking completion, and the dog staying will not be left alone with my own dogs.

“Beth looked after our furry family beautifully. Cats were happy and the kitchen clean. Great communication and photos while we were away. Will definitely be booking Beth again in future. Highly recommended. ”
“Elaine was very friendly and on the initial visit our male cat approached her right away, she was very reassuring and a calm presence for our 2 cats. Communication was as requested. The more timid female cat even allowed her to stroke her after some time which is quite an achievement. Thanks Elaine!”
“Chloe has anew friend...Peanut! This was the first time we used cat in a flat and a great experience. Chloe sent us pics and videos to keep us up to date... much appreciated. Sure we'll return! ”
“Could not recommend Gemesia more highly! She cared for our two cats for 10 days and was flexible, professional, kind and caring, especially when we discovered just before our trip that one of our cats is seriously ill. She took caring for him and his brother in her stride & sent us regular updates, photos & videos which eased our anxiety enormously”
“Probably the 6th review I’ve left for Lois! I will always use Lois when she is available for my baby Ozzie, he loves her just as much as I love to have her look after him. She is amazing, communicates everything and can tell she has a real passion and care towards pets she is sitting ❤️”
“It is our second time having Shannon taking care of our two cats! We are so glad to have her, our cats bond well with her, and she is so professional and knows really well about taking care of cats. We felt so much more relaxed than our previous travels, because we know they are in good hands! Definitely recommend her if you need someone reliable! ”
“This was our first time away since getting our cats so we were a little nervous. We received an update from each visit with photos and returned home to a tidy house with two very relaxed cats waiting on the windowsill as we walked in. Really happy and would definitely use Rachael again”
“This was the first time Inga had looked after my dog, communications prior to arriving were faultless and Inga asked all the relevant questions. Inga arrived on time and was calm and patient with my nervous dog, Inga sat with my dog while I left for a two hour appointment. Inga was gentle and kind with my dog which suffers from separation anxiety, Inga kept me informed while I was away and I was confident that my dog was being well cared for. I would use Inga again for dog sitting and would recommend.”

“We had Rachel come and look after our cat Felix for the first time bank holiday weekend. Was so impressed from the moment we met her on the meet & greet. Rachel done a great job looking after our boy, she followed all our instructions, sent photos of him and left the house very tidy. When we returned Felix was a happy boy. Would have no hesitation in booking Rachel again and would definitely recommend. Thank you Rachel .”
About: I’ve had my own cat for a year, so I understand the importance of keeping cats comfortable, safe, and settled in their routine. I’ve also looked after neighbours’ cats in the past, helping with feeding, fresh water, litter changes, playtime, and general care while their owners were away 🐱
About: If you’re looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter, you’re in the right place. I’ve been around cats my entire life and they’ve always been a big part of my home and heart. From curious kittens to calm older cats, I understand the unique personalities and needs that make each cat special. I currently live with several cats of my own and have years of experience with everything from feeding and litter tray cleaning to grooming and playtime — always making sure they feel happy and secure. While studying animal care, I also had the chance to help raise a litter of kittens in a classroom setting. As a group, we were responsible for their daily care — feeding, cleaning, and keeping them entertained as they grew and learned. It was a great experience that helped me understand feline behaviour better and strengthened my skills in handling cats of all ages. Whether your cat is playful and active or prefers a quiet corner and some gentle company, I’m happy to adapt to their routine and preferences. I know how important it is for cats to feel comfortable in their own space, and I’ll make sure they get the same attention, respect, and care I give to my own pets. You can feel confident knowing your cat is in safe and loving hands while you’re away

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: Family and friends have always trusted me to look after their dogs whether it is just for a couple of hours a day or for a couple of weeks. I have experience with small, medium and large breed dogs. I work from home with flexible hours so I am able to provide entertainment and attention throughout the day on both week days and weekends. I live in a spacious 2 bed apartment, with close access to beautiful public paths and parks with vast fields. I also have a front and back garden.
“Amazing dog sitter. Martina has taken care of my puppy Lester. He is very comfortable around her & he’s looks happy & content from the pictures & videos she has sent during his stay with her. I highly recommend.”
About: I am very patient and attentive to the animals in my care and very protective towards them. I treat them like I treat my own dog. I am retired and am at home all the time. I am available every day of the week but would need 3 days' notice. I am quite flexible with my time. My garden is fully enclosed and safe from any dangers like the wrong plants or chemicals. The nearest park to me is a very secluded and safe place.
“I honestly can’t thank Elly enough for taking such amazing care of Albert. He’s a Border Collie x Lab and quite a nervous dog, and this was the first time he’s ever been left away from me, so I was really anxious about it. Elly was absolutely brilliant from start to finish – so patient, kind and understanding with him. I got regular updates and photos which really put my mind at ease, and it was clear Albert was in safe hands. When I picked him up after Monday to Friday, he was happy, settled and comfortable, which says everything. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Elly to anyone, especially if you have a nervous dog. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Francesca is clearly very experienced with dogs (more so than us!) so we were able to leave Poppy with her for the afternoon/evening confident that she would be well looked after. It was great to get the video updates where we could see Poppy was having a great time. I have no hesitation in recommending Francesca. Thank you so much x”

He kept us updated throughout the day and whatsapped some great videos. Thanks Steve, will use you again in the future!”
“Dropped Leia off yesterday for the first time. Wasn’t sure how she would be as she doesn’t like being left with just anybody but she was fine. Chloe took her for a walk and gave her dinner as requested and Leia seemed happy. Was in contact leading up to the booking and on the day, so good communication. Will definitely book again.”
About: I’ve had pets since childhood — including dogs, cats, and rabbits — from energetic puppies to senior animals who need extra patience, care, and attention. For me, pets are family, and that’s exactly how I care for them: with love, respect, and dedication. I have hands-on experience with feeding, medication, hygiene, and understanding animal behavior, always adjusting to each pet’s individual needs. I’m passionate about animals and truly believe in the unconditional love they give us. For me, caring for them is a joy — and also a great responsibility that I carry out with the affection they deserve. I work flexible hours for a company based in another country, which allows me to take on walks or pet visits at scheduled times without any problem. During the week, I’m available in the mornings or after I pick up my daughter from school, which is also a great time for park visits and walks. I’m available to care for pets both during the week and on weekends, including for longer periods if needed, always with love, responsibility, and full attention. When I care for a pet in their own home, I always respect their space and routine, following the owner's instructions closely to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible. I'm very mindful of safety — paying close attention to doors, gates, windows, and anything that could pose a risk. During walks, I always keep pets on a leash and go at their pace, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. I value open communication with pet owners and provide regular updates, photos, and notes so they feel confident and at ease while I’m with their pets. For me, the animal’s safety, comfort, and well-being always come first.
“Sotiria is amazing! She is so kind and treats our little Archie with such care. She picked him up and took him to her place when we were away and was available on short notice when something unexpected came up. Archie adores her and she feeds him and sends lots of updates and pics. 5 stars :)”
About: We have always had dogs. I love taking care of them (and if I could I would have 100)! Whether it’s energetic pups who love long walks, senior dogs who need a gentler pace, or shy pets who require patience and reassurance, I adapt my care to each dog’s unique needs. I understand the importance of trust when it comes to your furry family member, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am currently working full-time so my flexibility is limited through week days. However I am fully flexible on weekends and more than happy to take care of any furry angels! I live by myself in a flat which is spacious enough for small and medium dogs. We have a backyard where the dog can play and I love taking the dogs on walks. No one will be involved in dogs’ care but me.
About: Big dog fan, but I can’t get my own due to work commitments in the week as I commute to work. Happy to look after yours and walk them or let them chase me on a run. I might even manage to teach them to give me a high five! I’ve got a terrace house with a comfy sofa and a garden to sniff around. I’ve had a dog for a year and learnt so much about caring for them and picking up any unhappy dog noises. I live near two big parks which are great for long walks and meeting other dogs for a chase. Preferably no dogs who like to chew or eat the sofa or cushions. Other than that my house is clean and tidy.
About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for animals, both through volunteering at an animal shelter and privately for friends and family. Working with animals has always been an important part of my life – something I truly enjoy and find deeply rewarding. I currently dedicate most of my free time to animals, simply because I love their company and genuinely care about their well-being. As a student with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to spend with the pets I look after. I understand how important routine, attention, and patience are when it comes to animal care. Each pet is unique, and I always do my best to understand their personality and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease in my care. Your pet will have full access to my home. I also have a quiet, private room where pets can relax whenever they need their own space – a great balance between comfort and calm. Whether it’s an energetic dog that needs long walks or a shy cat who prefers a cozy corner, I adapt to what makes each animal feel best.
“Thank you Richard, I can tell Safia had a lovely day. Richard kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the day, you can see the level of care and attention. Would definitely use again.”

“Lewis has been so kind and lovely with our Cavapoo, Snoopy - both walking and offering daycare at very short notice. His love of animals shone from our first communication and I was immediately at ease (as was Snoopy). I would highly recommend Lewis, and without hesitation, we'll certainly be calling on him again soon.”
About: Hello everyone! My name is Martina, an italian girl just finished her PhD in Genetics at University of Leicester. I have had a lovely Yorkie for 14 years (Maya, in the pic). She has always had health problems (she underwent three surgeries and was suffering of seizures and food allergy) which means I am well trained to take care of any kind of need your dog might have (I learned how to do injections, clean wounds, give a bath, administrate pills or other medicaments on a daily basis and respecting the time). Since I moved abroad I have missed her a lot. Even though she is not with me anymore I still have a lot of love and care to give and so i thought the best way was to become a pet sitter which not only might help someone in need but would also help me to do one of the things that i love most! I am not going to the lab at the moment as I just submitted my thesis which means I am quite flexible about days and hours. About me, I consider myself a very friendly and easy-going person. In addition I fluently speak Italian, English, Spanish a bit of Arabic. I also have a car. If you think I could be a good temporary companion for your pet, do not hesitate to contact me. :) I have just finished my PhD and I am currently unemployed so I am very flexible and can accommodate all your needs and those of your pet too of course! I live in a residential area with many parks close by to walk the dogs. My flat is small (2 bedrooms flat) but I have a big living room with space for the dog.

About: I have been around animals all my life and was lucky enough to grow up with dogs, cats, horses, rabbits and hamsters- to name a few. I am a very loving, relaxed and laidback pet owner and love being around animals. I happily share my sofa and bed with my pets, so if that is something your dog would like, they would feel right at home when staying with me. My dog Oscar is a friendly and playful British bulldog and I also have 2 x 10 year old cats so any dog visiting would have friends to play with. I also have experience looking after puppies as well as older dogs. I work 4 long day a week but am free over the weekends to look after your dog. I generally walk Oscar once a day for an hour but sometimes he gets an additional half hour walk as well so can easily offer this for your dog. I have a large enclosed garden and space in the house to keep any dog separate from Oscar at nighttime if needed. There is also space for a crate if you prefer your dog to sleep in a crate.
“Rosie, our Old Tyme Bulldog, stayed with Amanda and her family for a week while we went on holiday. We would highly recommend her. Amanda and her family clearly love dogs and Rosie had a great time. Amanda sent us regular updates, photos and videos throughout the week so we didn't have to worry whether Rosie was okay as we had videos of her enjoying herself. It was really reassuring. Great communication throughout. Rosie will definitely be staying with Amanda again and we'll be checking her availability before we book our next holiday :-)”
“This was the firsts time we have used this service and the Steve and his family was excellent. Regualar updates and Luna my dog was looked after to high standard, which allowed us to enjoy wedding we was at knowing she was in safe hands many thanks again”
“Julia was absolutely amazing with Safia ❤️ From the very beginning, she was caring, attentive, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. She kept me updated throughout the stay with detailed messages about walks, food, water, playtime, and how Safia was doing emotionally, which gave me so much peace of mind, and the most thorough report about her day. She even washed and dried Safia’s blanket after a little accident without hesitation, such a kind gesture that truly shows how much she cares! Safia clearly felt comfortable and loved with Julia and her family, and it made me so happy to hear how well she got along with everyone 😊 I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person. I would trust Julia again without a second thought and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, warm, patient, and genuinely loving with dogs. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Safia 🐾”
About: I've looked after animals my entire life. I come from a family full of different kind of animals so I care for them very well. I’m available at any time during the week and weekends so I have plenty of time to look after your fury friends! Just let me know when suits you best :) I will be walking your dogs so I will ensure that I will keep a bottle of water on me at all times and a small bowl so they can drink. I will also make sure that I carry some treats with me too and a dog toy so they can play!
“Amazing! Charlie had the best time, meeting new friends and being treated so well. Aleksandra sent lots of daily updates, with videos and pictures. I had no worries at all, I have collected a very happy dog. And will be recommending to my friends as well as rebooking myself. Could not have picked a better sitter ❤️ thank you so much”
About: I have owned dogs for over 8 years and now work with dogs as my career. I am a Canicross coach and have taught many different dogs in the sport. I provide ad hoc care for friend’s dogs and have experience in dealing with various behavioural needs. As a Canicrosser I can also provide short (suitable to your dog) runs in place of walking, please request if interested I am a self employed running and Canicross coach with 2 dogs of my own, and am therefore in the home a lot . My partner is a fire firefighter and therefore shift work means he is in the home for long periods of time, although whilst in the home he will never left with sole care of any dogs - rest assured they will remain my responsibility at all times. I have a toddler who visits his father regularly and therefore will offer pet care during hours and days / nights that he is not here. I have high exercise need dogs and am used to ensuring they have all of their needs met I have a small fenced garden and 2 of my own dogs living in the house. Any dogs staying will likely be with me at all times but any requirement of me leaving the house will be agreed with the owner before booking completion, and the dog staying will not be left alone with my own dogs.
“This was the first time leaving Bentley over night with anyone else, Demi made me and Bentley feel so comfortable and welcome. Constant pictures and updates on what they are doing throughout the day. Bentley didn’t even want to leave when I picked him up to go home😄 I couldn’t recommend Demi enough to anyone. Thank you x”
“I would highly recommend these guys fo look after your pets. I have a mini golden doodle call Bonnie who was so happy and settled with them start to finish. I was given lots of updates and updates photos which made me feel really relaxed. Bonnie loved spending time with them and I will defo use them again 😀”
“I can’t recommend Dipali and her husband enough! They were absolute lifesavers when our original dog sitter canceled on us last minute, just before our holiday to Morocco. Despite never having met us or Pablo before, they kindly agreed to take him in without a meet-and-greet, and at such short notice. From the moment my brother dropped Pablo off on Friday evening until we picked him up on Tuesday, Dipali and her husband provided the most loving and attentive care. They kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Pablo felt completely at home—he was so happy and comfortable that he’s actually crying the front door wanting to go back! Dipali and her husband truly have a passion for dogs, and their kindness and dedication shine through in the way they care for them. I’m beyond grateful for their help and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Pablo!xx”
“Highly recommended. Our Oakley had a great time with Polly and her 2 teenagers. He instantly took a liking to her, which for Oakley is rare. Oakley came back to us relaxed and happy. We will certainly use Polly again in the future!”
“Milena looked after my dog Kara for a day & night and I couldn’t have asked for better care. She sent me plenty of updates and photos throughout, which gave me real peace of mind. Kara had a wonderful time playing with her dog Sky and her kids, and got lots of cuddles too. Kara is double-coated so struggles in the heat, it was 28 degrees so I was especially impressed that Milena was so thoughtful- she used a cooling blanket and even gave her some frozen blueberries and watermelon to keep Kara comfortable. It’s clear Milena genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I’d happily leave Kara with her again and would recommend her without hesitation”
“Levi looked to have a great time, I received lots of photos of Levi on walks and relaxing with lots of toys and dogs to play with. Will certainly reach out when I need another sitter. Thanks for having him and providing a great week for Levi”
