“Nico stayed with Carina and her family for 4 days, and I must say, I was so at ease leaving my baby with them! I have received multiple pictures and updates each day, he was cared for and loved, and almost didn't want to leave when I came round to pick him up! Communication was absolutely perfect throughout the whole process as well! Definitely will be back for our next trips 😊”

About: We have had family dogs for the last 11 years, we currently have 2 bearded collies, Merlin (11yrs) and Griffon (5yrs) and they are regular visitors to our new home we recently purchased! There is plenty of room for fun in the fenced garden and other very friendly dogs in the neighbourhood we may bump into on walks. I work from home so there will always be someone around for your furry friend. I work remotely full time, however I have a very active lifestyle and go for walks in the morning, lunch times and evenings. I also have a flexible work schedule and with enough notice can make day time walks work if required Our family dogs do not live with us, they are with my in-laws, however as retired parents should be, they are very keen travellers and we are very happy dog sitters! As mentioned, we have a fenced in garden and lots of surrounding areas for dog walks. I work from home so am around to monitor and keep fluffy friends company.
“Lucy always enjoys her stays with Nicola who caters for Lucy's needs, including administering her insulin for her diabetes. I would thoroughly recommend Nicola to look after your dog.”

“Reached out to Julian last minute, he gladly accepted and was very accommodating to my request to have a meet and greet beforehand. He looked after my dog for an over night stay, took him out for lovely long walks and gave him lots of fuss and attention. Also sent plenty of updates so I knew all was going well. I have already booked Julian in again!”

“Clare has looked after our working cocker spaniel Frank twice. The first time when he was 4 months old and again at 11 months. I didn't think it was possible to tire him out but Clare did just that! We went for a dog walk with Clare before both bookings which was a lovely touch. We were sent updates and pictures/videos several times per day. Frank cried when he had to come home! I would recommend Clare to any dog owner and especially spaniel owners!”

“Chip had an awesome time with Dan! We got lots of updates from him and we could tell that our dog was really happy and well looked after. We highly recommend Dan as a dog sitter and would book him again any time.”

“Winona and Charlie looked after my dog for just over a week and I couldn’t be more happy with the stay. I got pictures and videos daily as well as updates on how my dog’s day has been. I was able to take my dog round for a first meet where I was able to ask any questions and discuss the dogs routing, which was followed for the duration of the stay. My dog was welcomed into their family and I could not be happier or recommend Winona and Charlie more.”

“Wow, what can I say about Amanda, her lovely home, and her amazing hospitality! This was the first time I’d ever left Marlo with someone who wasn’t family, and I honestly didn’t feel nervous at all. He stayed with her for 7 days, and she kept me updated throughout my holiday with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Marlowe has allergies and follows a strict raw diet, which Amanda was more than happy to accommodate. She even got him some suitable treats, which was such a thoughtful touch. He absolutely loved playing with her children’s dogs and was genuinely sad when they left; it felt like he was on holiday too! In fact, he seemed so happy there that I think he was a little disappointed to come home. I’ve already booked him in with Amanda again next month for an even longer stay, which says everything. I think I’ve found my forever dog sitter! 💗 Thank you again, Amanda!! Marlowe can’t wait to come back! 🐾”

“Anna is a responsive, reliable and effective dog sitter - we had complete confidence in her over the 10 days we were away. She provided regular updates and attentive care for our dog, that suffers from some separation anxiety. Recommended.”

“As soon as I met Beatriz and Matt at the meet and great I knew Russell would enjoy his stay and would be in safe hands there. I could see they were dog lovers they made Russell very welcome Their own dog Luca a cockapoo was friendly and playing with Russell. Beatriz sent me photos during his stay which was lovely I couldn't collect Russell at the time arranged they were accommodating in letting me pick him up later in the day. All in all a very good experience”

“We used Charlie for a day boarding for my dog Freddie. They live in an ideal location for dogs, and Freddie had the best time. We got sent regular picture and video updates, which showed Freddie having the time of his life. Lovely owners, with a lovely dog themselves, I would use them again in a heartbeat.”

“Oana took such an amazing care of my puppy! Banana had great time. Excellent communication and flexible booking time. Highly recommend and will definitely ask Oana to take care of my dog again :)”

“I can't recommend Lisa enough! From the moment I met her, I felt completely confident that Tank would be in great hands. Lisa is kind, professional, and truly passionate about animals. She kept me updated with adorable photos and messages throughout our time away, which gave me such peace of mind. Tank clearly adored her, and it was evident that she took the time to bond with him and was very sympathetic to his injury, issuing medication when required. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I’ll absolutely be booking Lisa again in the future. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares for your pet, Lisa is the one! 5 stars without a doubt! Thank you!! X”

“Thank you Yhozmin & Uli for looking after Wilson. The picture you sent across showed he had a great time with you and the family. I would recommend the service to all!”

“We have never left Oskar with anyone other than family before so we were a bit apprehensive but Angela was great with him. It was so nice that she gave us daily updates and we could see by the videos/pictures that he was happy and very comfortable. I would highly recommend Angela and will definitely be our first choice in future.”

“Marta has been a total gem while I was away. My cats took to her super quickly, she was super attentive and even noticed when one of them needed a vet visit 🥺 Marta kept me informed at all times and sent me lots of videos. Came back to super relaxed and happy cats. Couldn't recommend her more, will definitely book her again :) Thanks a lot!!”


“I definitely recommend Yasmin! Yasmin was an excellent cat sitter. It was lovely to meet her to explain everything before I went away. She was kind and reassuring. My cat was happy with her visiting while I was away. Yasmin did everything as I asked, playing with, brushing and giving treats to my cat as well as feeding, watering and litter tray-ing. She also sent me lovely photos to show my cat was okay. Yasmin reassured me when I was worried while away and wasnt judgemental about the home not being pristine. She gave me updates after each visit which was lovely. I felt that the service was definitely worth the price and I feel my cat was looked after better than if I had had a friend or relative to ask to look in on her. Thanks so much Yasmin!”

“Jordan took great care of my cat Pinu whilst I was on a short break. I was sent video clips and messages and kept up to date. Pinu was well looked after and I have no hesitation in recommending Jordan!”


“Lovely sitter :) beerus was happy and spoilt :) we had lots of updates and videos :) the house was tidy :) she also text questions if she was unsure ( beerus is raw fed )”


“Veronica is such a great catsitter. Our cat Risky is very shy and often hides from people but Veronica was able to win her over immediately and Risky became very affectionate towards her. Veronica sent us lots of photos of them having a nice time together and it really allowed us to enjoy our holiday. Thank you Veronica!”

“10/10 recommend Georgia!! She has popped into see our kitty 3 times so far and gives him the up most care and attention. She's happy to help and great in communication. I cannot fault anything! If your looking for someone to look after your pets I would 100% recommend Georgia. I already have her booked in for other visits and will continue to book. Much appreciated Georgia!”


“Lauren was great. She was available at very short notice and took good care of my cat while I was away for a few days to attend a family emergency. I highly recommend and would definitely hire her again!”

About: I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats through family, friends, and neighbours. I regularly walk, feed, and spend time with dogs in my community, and I’ve also provided overnight stays at a friend’s house to keep pets comfortable in their own routine. I’m often trusted to look after family members’ dogs and cats during both short breaks and longer stays, which has given me experience with pets of different ages, temperaments, and needs. What sets me apart is my reliability, genuine love for animals, and the attention I give to making sure each pet feels happy, safe, and cared for—whether that’s through daily walks, playtime, or extra cuddles. Since I work from home and drive, I can offer a great deal of flexibility, making it easy to fit in visits, walks, or overnight stays that suit your pet’s needs. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, or playtime, and I can also offer overnight stays when needed. Because I drive, I can adjust to different schedules and locations, making it simple to accommodate each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable by keeping to their usual routines and surroundings. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, exercise, and any special requirements. I take the time to build trust with each pet so they feel secure and relaxed in my care. At home, I live with my three children (ages 10, 15, and 16), two friendly cats, and a tortoise, so I’m very used to a busy, pet-loving household. This gives me plenty of experience managing different animals’ needs calmly and confidently. Pets in my care are never left unattended for long periods, and I keep a close eye on their safety during walks and playtime. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to ensuring both pets and owners have complete peace of mind.
About: My family have always had pets! I have been brought up with cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs. Animal care is my passion! My close family have cats and dogs, so if they’re busy or at work I do tend to help them out by taking them on walks. I have one cat, and I’m currently in the process of convincing my partner to rescue a dog with me! We both love animals so this is certainly the first step! I do work full time in a school, so I get all of the holidays off the same time as the students. However on the days that work, early morning walks/check ins or evening walks/check ins would be no issue at all. And of course there’s weekends that I’m free as well. My cat is super super loving and calm, my garden is fairly big and there’s a fence all the way around so there would be no safety issues
About: I have a huge love for animals, for as long as I can remember I have always helped friends and family with pet care needs and would love to help others too. I work full time but have occasional work from home days one day a week at least, weekend availability and dog walking opportunities as I also take my own dogs for walks of around 2-3.5k twice daily. I have a house with 2 gardens that are enclosed, 2 small dogs myself to keep your fur baby company and for that extra social interaction, I also live within short walking distance of fields and woodland areas to take your dog on some lovely long walks!

“We had our drop in visit with Katie for Atlas and couldn’t be happier with the care Atlas received 😊 Atlas was well looked after, given lots of attention, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We really appreciated the updates and the care Katie took to make sure Atlas was comfortable and happy during the visit. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter. Atlas can’t wait till the next visit 😊”


“Another great sit by Paige, she really does the best job at putting my mind at ease while I’m away. Paige goes above and beyond when it comes to looking after Cash, making sure he is safe, fed and happy - even when he’s being naughty! I couldn’t ask for more out of a pet sitter and trust her completely! Can’t wait to use her services again. ”


About: For me, caring for cats isn’t just a job—it’s a passion. I treat every cat I look after as if they were my own, providing them with the love, attention, and comfort they need while you’re away. From playtime and cuddles to maintaining feeding routines and litter box cleaning, I make sure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and cared for in their familiar environment. I take the time to get to know each cat’s unique personality—whether they’re shy and quiet or playful and curious. I offer plenty of affection, gentle interaction, and enrichment to help keep them happy and stress-free. With regular updates and photos, you can have peace of mind knowing your feline friend is in kind, capable hands. Your cat’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities. Whether it’s a weekend away or a longer trip, you can count on me to provide reliable, loving care every step of the way.
About: With years of hands-on experience as a devoted dog owner, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior, needs, and communication. What makes me unique is my intuitive approach to individual dog personalities. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care. Whether it’s building trust with a rescue, managing high-energy breeds, or creating routines that support both mental stimulation and calm, I tailor my approach to each dog’s temperament, age, and background. From daily walks and training reinforcement to grooming, nutrition, and health monitoring, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, seniors dogs, gaining practical knowledge in everything from socialization to medication management. I’m not just experienced—I’m passionate. Dogs aren’t just pets; they’re companions, and family. That belief drives my commitment to giving them the best life possible. I am available morning noon and night I can also come and walk your dog whenever you need. I can also do long or short term boarding. I’m an active, animal-loving woman with a real passion for spending time with dogs. I have a secure, fenced garden that’s perfect for safe outdoor play, plus I’m lucky to live near beautiful open fields—ideal for long, enriching walks and plenty of sniffing adventures! I truly understand that dogs are sensitive, social animals who don’t enjoy being left alone. That’s why I’m committed to giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I love to play, cuddle, and simply be present with them, making sure they feel relaxed, happy, and loved at all times.

“Carina was fantastic, was very prompt with replies and kept me updated with pictures to how Casper was doing. She was very flexible with the drop off and pickup times, and Casper seemed to really enjoy himself. I felt very safe leaving Casper with her, and would use her again 🥰”

“I was so so pleased. My furbaby had such an amazing time with Laurita. She looked after and doted on Coco as if she was her own, which makes my heart melt.

Coco can’t wait to see her and her lovely dog Maya next :)”

About: I have had pets since I was 10. I have grown around them and I always loved to bring home any pet found on the street. I enjoy their company and I love to take care of them and give them all the love they deserve. I will take care of your pet as it was my own,so let me know if you need someone to take them for a walk and have fun in the park or if you need someone to take care of them when you are away 😺 🐶🙂 Your pet will be in good paws with me :) I am currently working from home so I am flexible with days and times.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs since age 13, with hands-on experience across labradors, collies, golden retrievers, labradoodles, Boston terriers, and mixed breeds. For the past three years, my wife, my son Tom, and I have cared for dogs locally through other sitting platforms, earning consistent five-star reviews. We offer a settled family home where dogs follow familiar routines. Feeding times stay consistent, walks match each dog’s energy and needs, and dogs receive daily attention and affection. I watch behaviour, comfort, and wellbeing closely, so owners feel confident their dog feels safe, relaxed, and cared for like one of our own. I work remotely, so dogs stay part of my daily routine rather than fitting around gaps. Walks happen regularly through the day, feeding times stay consistent, and dogs receive attention between work tasks. Care runs alongside looking after my son, so dogs stay included in a calm, structured family day rather than left alone. I care for dogs in a safe, calm home environment and follow each owner’s instructions closely. I focus on routines, supervision, and wellbeing rather than specialist grooming or pampering services. I am not professionally trained in grooming, but I ensure dogs stay clean, comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Woody had a great time with Lisa and her little doggy. Lisa was easy to communicate with and was very accommodating when we had to move our schedule. Woody will definitely be staying again!”

My partner can also care for pets on days when I'm not at home (with pet owners permission of course).

My nearby walking routes include quiet residential areas and large parks, the closest of which has an enclosed dog field and a dog agility course for exercise.

About: Because of my passion for animals, I studied veterinary technician in Turkey. I've had dogs since I was 14 years old. I took care of them as long as they lived, and sometimes I healed and adopted the sick ones. I was with them during their fun times and when they were sick. I have experience in taking care of dogs from puppyhood to old age. I'm not working right now, so I can give them the time they need.

“Georgia helped us out last minute with some walks for our large breed boy. She has been friendly and responsive and he seemed very happy in her care. We would definitely use her services again!”

About: I’ve been a cat and dog owner for most of my life! From schnoodles to Irish red setters, to domestic snow leopards and moggies, I’ve loved all of them and provided great care. Whilst I’m not in a position to own a pet right now, I’d love to still nurture and care for other pets and help out my community. I’m currently working part time and remotely so I’m generally home all the time. Pet care will fit into my schedule easily with a little bit of notice! I live in a two bedroom house, with a small fenced in garden with deck and astro turf. There are also plenty of lovely walks around me!
About: Looked after dogs all of my life, hold a license to breed so competent around dogs & enjoy their company. Fully insured for dog walking & DBS checked. Regular updates sent to owners via text / WhatsApp. I am available to help Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Thursdays during term time but also happy to discuss different days as and when required if agreed in advance. Fenced garden - 200ft in length laid to lawn. We have 4 dogs living here. My girls are walked daily, we explore different parks and areas, we play ball and we have a range of toys available. I can also walk your dog separately rather than in a group.

About: My family have had dogs my entire life so I am very much a dog lover and fanatic! I love knowing about all the different breeds, different personalities and getting to know dogs characters. I have a small terrier myself who is now 6. I am a very confident person when it comes to handling dogs and walking them. I regularly have friends dogs over to stay for play dates with my dog and I genuinely love spending time with them so being on Rover makes total sense. I work from home 3 days a week so can be rather flexible with sitting and walks and general dog companionship :) In my day job I come across a lot of dogs and I have actually rehomed 14 so far in to loving homes. One of them even now lives in Lisbon! I can honestly find a connection with any dog, I cannot see how some people arent dog people! I work from home 3 days a week and spend 2 out 4 weekends a month at home. I take my own dog out for 2 walks a day everyday without fail. I have a good sized garden which is safe and fenced off. I also have lots of lovely walks local to me across fields and forests which I know my dog loves also. My dog has a bed downstairs but often sleeps upstairs in my bedroom but I would be happy for a dog staying overnight to be anywhere that he/she is comfortable in the home, there are no off limits areas.

Weekends I will be more flexible☺️ Plenty of cuddles & play times of course! ☺️ I'll always make sure your pets got fresh water, enough food and have plenty of toys out so they don't get bored. I'm also am happy to crate rest your pet if needed.
About: I have had previous work experience at a kennels with all shapes, sizes and breeds of dogs for 7 months, including cleaning, walking and feeding I am currently working a part time job with very good hours, so am flexible to work around these times and make time to look after your dogs and make sure they get the provided care that they are required If I was to look after your dog either overnight or during the day time, safety would be checked first before letting them into the garden and making sure the correct food and amount and enough water is provided at a time when I am there
About: I have looked after family and friends pets, and I have experience with dogs who have medical needs, and I have looked after multiple type of dog breeds and sizes.

“Lucy always enjoys her stays with Nicola who caters for Lucy's needs, including administering her insulin for her diabetes. I would thoroughly recommend Nicola to look after your dog.”

“Reached out to Julian last minute, he gladly accepted and was very accommodating to my request to have a meet and greet beforehand. He looked after my dog for an over night stay, took him out for lovely long walks and gave him lots of fuss and attention. Also sent plenty of updates so I knew all was going well. I have already booked Julian in again!”

“Chip had an awesome time with Dan! We got lots of updates from him and we could tell that our dog was really happy and well looked after. We highly recommend Dan as a dog sitter and would book him again any time.”

“Winona and Charlie looked after my dog for just over a week and I couldn’t be more happy with the stay. I got pictures and videos daily as well as updates on how my dog’s day has been. I was able to take my dog round for a first meet where I was able to ask any questions and discuss the dogs routing, which was followed for the duration of the stay. My dog was welcomed into their family and I could not be happier or recommend Winona and Charlie more.”

“Wow, what can I say about Amanda, her lovely home, and her amazing hospitality! This was the first time I’d ever left Marlo with someone who wasn’t family, and I honestly didn’t feel nervous at all. He stayed with her for 7 days, and she kept me updated throughout my holiday with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Marlowe has allergies and follows a strict raw diet, which Amanda was more than happy to accommodate. She even got him some suitable treats, which was such a thoughtful touch. He absolutely loved playing with her children’s dogs and was genuinely sad when they left; it felt like he was on holiday too! In fact, he seemed so happy there that I think he was a little disappointed to come home. I’ve already booked him in with Amanda again next month for an even longer stay, which says everything. I think I’ve found my forever dog sitter! 💗 Thank you again, Amanda!! Marlowe can’t wait to come back! 🐾”

“We used Charlie for a day boarding for my dog Freddie. They live in an ideal location for dogs, and Freddie had the best time. We got sent regular picture and video updates, which showed Freddie having the time of his life. Lovely owners, with a lovely dog themselves, I would use them again in a heartbeat.”

“Oana took such an amazing care of my puppy! Banana had great time. Excellent communication and flexible booking time. Highly recommend and will definitely ask Oana to take care of my dog again :)”

“I can't recommend Lisa enough! From the moment I met her, I felt completely confident that Tank would be in great hands. Lisa is kind, professional, and truly passionate about animals. She kept me updated with adorable photos and messages throughout our time away, which gave me such peace of mind. Tank clearly adored her, and it was evident that she took the time to bond with him and was very sympathetic to his injury, issuing medication when required. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I’ll absolutely be booking Lisa again in the future. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares for your pet, Lisa is the one! 5 stars without a doubt! Thank you!! X”

“We have never left Oskar with anyone other than family before so we were a bit apprehensive but Angela was great with him. It was so nice that she gave us daily updates and we could see by the videos/pictures that he was happy and very comfortable. I would highly recommend Angela and will definitely be our first choice in future.”

“When going away our fox red lab went to stay with Phoebe, I couldn’t recommend her more woody was well looked after with walks in there forest and photos of updates would definitely use Phoebe again xx”

“Alex was a first class boarder for my little dog Bertie. It was the first time I had left Bertie with anyone other than my daughter, so I was a bit worried how he would be. But to my relief, as soon as Alex said hello to him, he was wagging his tail and licking Alex and wanting to play . I think Alex must speak dog! Bertie also loved the two children who also were great with him. They had a lovely big garden backing on to fields , making it ideal for lovely walks. The whole family were absolutely brilliant and obviously really adore dogs. I would highly recommend Alex and wouldn’t hesitate to take Bertie back again.”

“Georgia was fantastic and what an idyllic setting. Patch enjoyed his first time on a barge, but it won’t be his last as he’s going back for a couple of weeks in August. Thank you!”
