About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies full of energy to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra love and patience. I understand the different needs that come with each stage of life, whether it’s helping with house training, keeping up with puppy zoomies, or providing gentle care and companionship for older pups. I always aim to create a calm, safe, and loving environment so every dog feels right at home. I’m home full-time, so your dog will have my full attention throughout the day!

I’m flexible with routines and can easily adjust to your dog’s schedule to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fully fenced garden where pups can play and explore safely under supervision. We’re also lucky to have beautiful woodland walks nearby, perfect for sniff-filled strolls and a bit of outdoor adventure. Inside, my home is calm and dog-friendly—ideal for both energetic pups and those who prefer a cozy nap spot. You can feel confident knowing your dog will be cared for in a safe, loving environment.
“My Frenchie Lottie had a lovely ‘trial’ day yesterday with Tracey and her doggie family. Tracey ensured Lottie felt at home and took her time introducing her to her own and visiting dogs. She sent me pictures and videos of Lottie who was clearly very happy and settled with Tracey and her environment. Given how well this visit went I am very comfortable with Lottie staying with Tracey for 2 weeks whilst we are away later this month.”

I can accommodate 2 dogs from the same family at my home. I will decline bookings if we already have a dog with me.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and had my own dog for over 16 years,from when I was a child all the way into adulthood. That experience taught me so much about the love, patience, and attention dogs need at every stage of life. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and understand how to care for them gently and attentively. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every dog like my own. I pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs, whether that means extra playtime, slow and calm walks, or just a lot of affection. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals, it’s not just a side job for me, it’s something I truly enjoy I’m currently working part time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy and make time for. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for regular walks, drop-in visits, or extended care depending on your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m happy to fit pet care into my day. When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s specific needs, whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medication, or playtime preferences. I always give them plenty of attention.
“Laura was so kind and accommodating. She met me before hand to make sure our dogs were a good fit, and we were able to take a walk together. On the day she watched my dog she was so flexible and kind. I arrived to pick up my dog late in the evening, much later than I really should have, but Laura was nothing but sweet. My dog seems well rested and calm, like she had a great evening. I will 100% be using Laura's dog sitting services again!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from high energy pups to older dogs who just need a slow stroll and gentle attention. While I’m new to offering pet care through Rover, I bring decades of hands-on experience from raising and looking after dogs within my own family. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and detail-oriented, the kind of person both pets and people can depend on. I occasionally get help from my husband and nephew, who are also lifelong dog owners, but I personally handle all Rover bookings and communication to make sure you always know who’s caring for your pet. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I plan my day around your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust my availability for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays based on your needs. If your pet has a specific schedule for feeding, walks, or medication, I’m happy to follow it closely. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, pets are cared for in a secure, structured, and loving environment. I have two friendly resident dogs who are well-socialized and enjoy the company of other dogs. Introductions are always done slowly and safely to ensure everyone feels comfortable. Depending on your pet’s needs, they can either relax indoors as part of the family or enjoy their own space in a clean, secure kennel with a run. I also have a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can play, explore, or just enjoy some fresh air in a safe, enclosed space. I always follow your instructions closely and provide consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and gentle care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for a wide range of breeds including Corgis, Jack Russells, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Staffies, Springer Spaniels and Labradors. Because of that I’m comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels and sizes of dogs. I’m used to handling strong dogs on walks as well as older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I currently have a dog of my own and spend a lot of time walking the local paths and tracks, so regular exercise and safe, enjoyable walks are already part of my daily routine. I’ve also helped friends by walking and sitting their dogs, and I always aim to make sure dogs feel relaxed, comfortable and well looked after while they’re with me. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around caring for and walking my own senior dog. Spending time outside on walks is a regular part of my day, and this is the main work I’m focusing on, which means I have good flexibility and availability for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m used to planning my schedule around dogs’ needs and making sure they get the time, attention and exercise they require. When caring for a dog, I believe the most important thing is listening carefully to the owner and following their instructions, as every dog has their own routine and needs. During walks I focus on making sure dogs get safe, enjoyable exercise at a pace that suits them, whether they’re energetic or prefer a slower walk. For drop-in visits I’m happy to make sure dogs are fed, have fresh water, get attention and time outside if needed, and generally feel comfortable and relaxed while their owner is away.

“Today Oscar visited us again, my dogs recognised him immediately and were very happy of seeing him again. This time after walking my 2 boxers together he also helped me to teach them how to use a special stair for the car boot which I have recently purchased. I can tell that the whole experience was very positive. I learn a lot from Oscar every time on how to interact with my dogs, how to create an easy going environment for the future. Visibly he has a wealth of knowledge on training dogs and control them with kindness, calmness and good energy.”

Together, we explore forests, beaches, and countryside trails, and I love sharing that energy and freedom with the dogs I look after. Whether your pup needs a weekend of forest adventures or just someone calm and reliable while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. I’m experienced with large and small breeds, gentle with nervous dogs, and always patient and attentive. Dogs in my care get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and affection—and you get peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I can relocate and move where the job needs me to be. I'm flexible and I can adapt to the needs of the dog. I love to play and I'm respecful of their needs. I know about good dog nutrition. I take dogs with me in to nature and urban environment. I am observant of body language and their needs.I am reassuring and confident around big or small dogs.
About: I have loved dogs ever since I can remember and have grown up taking care of them, including a diverse range of breeds. I have been a dog walker and pet sitter for neighbours in the past. I adore dogs and aim to give them the best experience as possible. I will care for them as if they are my own, giving them all the cuddles and walks a dog could dream of. I’m currently at home from university and so I have plenty of free time to care for your dog. I am available to walk your dog any days of the week and will give them plenty of cuddles and treats (only if their mom or dad allows it ofc!). There is also a large nature reserve two minutes away from which is the perfect place for your dog to sniff to their hearts content. I have a fenced garden for your dog to roam around in as well as a dog of my own to keep them company. His name is Louie (Lou Lou) — the most lovable dog you will meet. He is incredible sociable with other dogs but would also respects their space. He is only a young cockapoo! Our days are spent with lots of cuddles and belly rubs.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, having grown up surrounded by pets. I’m confident handling different breeds, temperaments, and needs. I’ve regularly cared for pets within my local community, including feeding, walking, administering medication, and providing companionship. I’ve also worked part-time as a dog walker, further building my confidence with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. My experience has made me patient, attentive, and highly reliable when it comes to ensuring every animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work from home so I’m always available and flexible to provide any services you may need. I’m happy to work completely around your schedule. I’m not able to look after pets in my own home however I can do house sitting and any other services you may require.
About: I have taken care of a wide range of dog breeds previously. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on and trusted me to check in, care for, feed, walk and play with their pets when needed! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, with dedicated morning, midday, and evening time for walks, feeding, play, and regular check-ins throughout the week. I care for every pet as if they were my own, keeping to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. In an owner’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific needs. I keep the space clean and provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind. In my home, pets have a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment. I make sure they are supervised, comfortable, and never left alone for long periods.

About: I’ve lived with and looked after many pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals. I regularly look after my friends dogs, cats and other small pets. I have a passion for dogs and although I don’t currently have my own I regularly walk dogs daily with friends and/or family. I’ve helped train puppies and also spent time caring for elder dogs. I currently work for a company that produces smart devices for pets so I am very familiar with animals and the wants and needs required to look after them and their welfare. I work fully remote for a pet device company and regularly spend my spare time with my friends and families pets. I’m active and love walking, I have completed the Camino de Santiago and enjoyed every step. Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own I have pet beds, bowls and other toys etc as I regularly look after dogs at my house. I make sure my house is pet friendly and love to get to know every animal I pet sit. A part of forming a bond and making sure they are cared for is understanding the behaviours and habits they already have and keeping as routine as you can to keep them safe and happy. I’ve regularly pet sat at friends homes and always treat their animals and homes with love and care.

About: I've had pets since I was a small girl. I grew up with labradors, cats, rabbits and gerbils. It was only once i'd turned 30 I realised I wanted to be a veterinary nurse. I obtained my qualification December 2024 and was put on the RCVS register 2025. If you need help on an ad hoc basis and my availability fits with what you need, I'd love to be able to help you and your fur baby. I have Wednesdays off most weeks and have two days off either side of a weekend when I work them. The days I am off I am able to be home the whole time I have a fenced garden and a 10 and a half year old cavalier king charles spaniel that loves making new friends. He goes out for small walks but I am more than happy to go for long walks if thats what your fur baby needs
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from high energy pups to older dogs who just need a slow stroll and gentle attention. While I’m new to offering pet care through Rover, I bring decades of hands-on experience from raising and looking after dogs within my own family. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and detail-oriented, the kind of person both pets and people can depend on. I occasionally get help from my husband and nephew, who are also lifelong dog owners, but I personally handle all Rover bookings and communication to make sure you always know who’s caring for your pet. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I plan my day around your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust my availability for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays based on your needs. If your pet has a specific schedule for feeding, walks, or medication, I’m happy to follow it closely. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, pets are cared for in a secure, structured, and loving environment. I have two friendly resident dogs who are well-socialized and enjoy the company of other dogs. Introductions are always done slowly and safely to ensure everyone feels comfortable. Depending on your pet’s needs, they can either relax indoors as part of the family or enjoy their own space in a clean, secure kennel with a run. I also have a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can play, explore, or just enjoy some fresh air in a safe, enclosed space. I always follow your instructions closely and provide consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and gentle care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
