About: I've always loved dogs since I was a child and grew up with two Rottweilers. We've had my family dog for 8 years now and am often left in his care. I have looked after dogs for large periods of time and have fed, bathed, walked and given medication before. I love being outside and especially with a canine companion! I currently am not working and so have loads of time to look after you pooch or take them for lovely long walks. I do have some family commitments but if you drop me a message we can usually get something arranged for you! I'll walk on open routes such as fields and town areas with your dog on lead and will sometimes be accompanied by my dog unless you wish for your dog to be walked alone!

About: Hi, I'm Kieran! I have a deep love for animals, while I don't have pets of my own right now due to living in a pet-free flat, I will channel all my animal-loving energy into looking after yours! I am active, trustworthy, and fully focused on making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you are away. Why Choose Me? I grew up around animals and feel completely confident handling different breeds, energy levels, and personalities. Because I cannot bring pets to my home, my focus is entirely on your turf. I offer dedicated house sitting in your home, drop-in feeding visits, and energetic outdoor dog walks. I also understand how precious your pets are so I can provide regular photo and text updates during every booking so you have total peace of mind. Whether you need a regular Saturday morning dog walker, weekday evening drop-in visits for your cat while you're away, or an overnight house sitter, I am here to help and remain flexible. I currently work full time Monday - Friday. However Wednesdays and Fridays I work from home allowing more flexibility to attend to pet toilet breaks as required. Every evening during the week I am available to walk your pet or house sit. Then on weekends I remain completely open and available to any requests. I will always follow the advice given by the pet owner to ensure the normal care is continued. This includes keeping to the pets same routine, and rules to ensure the pet feels relaxed in its own environment, as well as safe.

About: I have had animals all my life, ever since I was little, and caring for them has always been something I am passionate about. Growing up around pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing animals with the love and attention they need. Looking after and caring for animals has always been something I enjoy, whether it is feeding, exercising, grooming, or simply spending time with them. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I am committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. My lifelong experience with animals has given me the confidence and dedication needed to provide excellent care for pets. I am available in the week all day Wednesday Thursday and then in the morning/afternoon Monday Tuesday which can be easily moved around for you doggy, I work weekends but short shifts so I will always be around even for pop ins or even hours if needed When pet sitting in a client’s home, I will provide loving, reliable, and attentive care to ensure their pets remain happy and comfortable in their familiar environment. I will follow all instructions given by the owner, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication requirements, and any special care needs. I will spend quality time with the pets, giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and playtime while maintaining their usual daily routine. I will also help keep the home tidy and secure, ensuring both the pets and property are well looked after while the owner is away. My priority is to provide peace of mind by treating every pet with the same care and affection I would give my own.

It was great to have Kirsty look after our two girls, she was very enthusiastic and lovely. Both cats gave her the seal of approval which can be difficult as one of them is very nervous of strangers. I would definitely recommend and use again.

Molly was great, she was keen to do an intro meet and great and kept us updated with every visit. Everything was left clean and tidy with all used tins etc thrown away and the kitchen left nice and clean, which is so important in this hot weather. Our cats seemed very happy. Will use again

This was the first time Tamsyn had looked after Bertie and Tilly but I would not hesitate to book her again. She was very pleasant and professional to deal with and did a great job of keeping us updated, as well as managing to get several photos of our elusive cats! I highly recommend her 😊

About: Hi everyone, I’m Nicola and I’m so excited to introduce you to PetBuddy4U! Based in Rushden and surrounding areas, I provide trusted, compassionate care for dogs and small animals. Animals have always been at the heart of my life, and caring for them has been my passion since childhood. I’m fully insured and trained in psychotherapy, helping me provide a calm, patient, and understanding approach focused on your pet’s wellbeing, comfort, and happiness. I understand that every animal is unique, so I tailor my care to suit each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine. Whether your pet loves company, reassurance, playtime, or a quieter approach, they will always be treated with kindness, love, and respect — just like family. I currently work remotely, which allows me to offer flexible and reliable pet care around my schedule. I’m available for daily walks, puppy visits, pet sittings and overnight stays, with weekends also available. I love caring for animals and always make sure pets get plenty of attention, care, and companionship while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a customer’s home, I always make sure they stay comfortable, safe and relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow each owner’s routine carefully, including feeding times, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection and companionship while their owners are away as well as regular toilet breaks and exercise. I also keep the home tidy and secure during visits or overnight stays. I understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s pets and home so I always treat both with the utmost respect and care. Owners can also expect updates and photos for peace of mind while they’re away.

Stephanie looked after my cat, Rupert and went above and beyond. Rupert really took to Stephanie and enjoyed her company. He got plenty of fuss and cuddles. I got daily updates on how he was doing with lots of photos. I’ve returned home and he seems more calmer after I’ve been away. I totally recommend Stephanie to look after your cat/dog needs while you’re away.

About: If I had to choose between spending the day with people or dogs... the dogs would win every time! 😂 I've always been a huge animal lover, especially when it comes to dogs. I've grown up around them my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have two gorgeous dogs of my own—Yorkshire Terrier ( Maja) and a Cockapoo puppy ( Mimi) —who are a huge part of my life. They keep me on my toes with lots of adventures, cuddles, and playtime! Alongside caring for my own dogs, I've regularly looked after and walked dogs for family and friends, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to explore or prefers a slower-paced stroll with plenty of sniffing stops, I'll tailor every walk and visit to suit their individual needs. Pet care is something I genuinely love and enjoy being part of my routine. I’m fully flexible on weekends, making them ideal for longer walks, adventures, dog sitting, and giving your furry friend plenty of attention and care. I’m happy to work with your dog's usual routine and will always do my best to provide reliable, consistent care. Whether your dog needs an exciting adventure walk, some one-to-one attention, or a cosy home-from-home stay, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well looked after. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I’m always happy to chat about what works best for you and your furry friend. 🐶💕 If your dog stays with me, they'll be welcomed into a loving family home and treated like one of my own. I live in a spacious three-bedroom house with a fully secure, fenced garden where dogs can safely play, explore, or simply relax in the sunshine. Inside, they'll have plenty of cosy places to curl up, lots of love and attention, and as many cuddles as they'll allow! For dog walking, I’m happy to offer both solo walks and walks with my own two dogs joining us. If you would like your dog to have a one-to-one walk with me, that is absolutely fine. Alternatively, if you’re happy for your dog to have some friendly company, my two girls would love to come along and enjoy the adventure too! Just let me know what you’d prefer when booking, and I’ll make sure your dog has a fun, safe, and enjoyable walk that suits your wishes. For dog boarding and stays in my home, my two girls will naturally be part of the family environment, so I kindly ask that any dogs staying with me are friendly, comfortable, and happy around other dogs. I’ll always make introductions carefully and make sure every dog feels settled, safe, and welcomed as part of the family. 🐾

About: I am a reliable and caring pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I have hands-on experience looking after pets in a home environment, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I take the time to build trust with each pet. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or simply keeping them company, I approach every task with patience and attention to detail. I’m also comfortable maintaining routines, administering basic care, and keeping owners updated for peace of mind. As a pet owner myself, I truly understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. My goal is to provide a calm, loving, and dependable environment where your pet feels at home. I am available for pet sitting in their home on weekends, especially Saturday and Sunday afternoons. I also offer overnight care for cats in my own home, providing a safe and comfortable environment while owners are away enjoying their holidays. I understand how important it is to stay connected while you’re away from your pet, so I provide frequent updates, including photos and messages, to give you peace of mind. Your pet will be cared for with attention, patience, and genuine affection, just like they would be at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm and friendly cat at home, but I always introduce pets carefully and only if appropriate. If needed, I can keep them completely separate to ensure a stress-free environment. I live in a spacious home, which allows me to provide dedicated areas where your pet can relax and feel secure. I always respect each pet’s boundaries and personality, whether they prefer social interaction or their own quiet space. I also make sure the home environment is safe, clean, and pet-friendly at all times. You can trust that your pet will be supervised, well cared for, and treated with the same level of attention I give my own.

About: I’ve had dogs as part of my family since the age of 10 so I am well aware of the needs and attention a dog can need. I have dog sat for neighbours in the past as well as dog walking for a local kennels. I’m an avid animal lover dedicating my life to getting an animal related degree and now working with animals full time. I work a 8-4 job so am available most evenings and weekends. I also have every 3 Monday and Fridays off work so am available in the day some weekdays. I have a 4 year old cockapoo living at home so the house is dog proof and always full of toys to play with. It has now become a habit to always see my dogs in the corner of my eye so I can care for all their needs at the right moment.

Wonderful dog sitter! We are so happy with the care our dog received. Michaela was absolutely great with him — calm, kind, and very attentive. When we returned, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly very comfortable in her care. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other East Northamptonshire pet parents with similar pet households.

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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in East Northamptonshire choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
