“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”

“Josh did an amazing job at looking after my 2 cats & gave them exactly the care I wanted for them! He took photos and a detailed summary of every visit so I knew they were happy and cared for. His communication was excellent and I’d recommend him to anyone! Thanks so much Josh a you made a stressful situation un-stressful x”

“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 😊”

“This is the second time Crystal has looked after our cats and we have again found her friendly, efficient and reliable. She keeps in touch, which is very reassuring, and we feel that our cats are in good hands while we're away. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a cat-sitter. ”

“Brilliant! Thank you so much for looking after my boys, thank you for the pictures and the updates, they are in good spirits when I got home, very happy and no stress. I highly recommend Stephanie and will definitely use again, she’s friendly and professional and exactly who you want looking after your pets!”

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!

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 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: 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.

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.

“First time using Rover and we were lucky to find Melissa for our fist ever dog sit as she made the experience much better than expected.

About: I’ve walked my sisters dog every week for the past 3 years, also helped my mums dog attend puppy classes and learnt a lot from these lessons I’m currently working a flexible schedule and usually having two days off together really helps. I’m more than happy to stay with the dog if I’m free to do so I usually take my sisters dog for an hour long walk and the. At home feed and and wash him before he then snoozes in his bed
“Stephanie was fantastic with Kobe!! She kept us up to date with plenty of pictures and we could tell Kobe really enjoyed his time with her while we were away”

About: I love all doggies! My Dog was a rescue who was very nervous around other humans and doggies, I took extra care with him re introducing him to new environments - now he is the most loving and playful dog! Have also taken many neighbours dogs for walkies for many years! I work part time as a snowboard instructor, so I have plenty of time to look after my fur baby! He has penny of walks and a doggy paddle pool for this mega heat! It’s all love around here! We have a big garden with lots of shade and a pool if they love water!

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. 🐾

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!

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.
