“We were very apprehensive about leaving Max as this was the first time , Mat put us at ease straight away. Whilst we were away we had regular updates and pictures which was fantastic and put us straight as ease, and meant we could enjoy our holiday knowing max was being well taken care of. Max had a lovely week with Mat and his family, it was hot in the uk whilst we were away and all efforts where made to keep max nice and comfortable. I would highly recommend Mat and we will definitely be using his services again.”

Our dog came home happy and healthy, having enjoyed lots of attention whilst staying with Tobias and his family. The property is safe and secure, leaving us confident to leave our dog with Tobias.”
“Dominic was a great host for Tilly. She had lots of walks and got on well with Thunder D’s Husky. We received lots of updates and photos.All of which were very helpful in understanding how Tilly had settled in for her stay and evidenced the good relationship between the two dogs. Neither had had the opportunity to meet in advance of the booking. Very happy indeed, Thank you Dominic and Thunder for making her stay with you a big success”
“Our elderly boy Hero had a wonderful stay with Diane and Nancy. We received regular updates and photos, which really put our minds at ease and showed how settled he was. Diane couldn’t have been more welcoming, and we would happily leave Hero in her care again. Thank you so much, Diane — we’re truly grateful.”
“Ernie had a lovely time with Gabriella. She kept me up to date while I was away and sent me pics and videos. She took him out on lovely walks and was very caring of him. Thanks so much! Ernie can be nervous around other dogs, she was very considerate of this too which put my mind at ease. Would 100% recommend. Thank you!”
“Faride did an excellent job of looking after our fur baby Lilo during my wedding 💒 Her home is very warm and welcoming, Lilo loved it the second she stepped in the door, and the regular photo updates helped us not to miss Lilo too much! 📸 We will definitely be back for more dog sitting in the future! 🐾”
“I stumbled upon Andrea's services and I can't believe how lucky I got! She treated my dog like her own and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. She sent updates frequently, provided special food, long walks, and lots of affection. ❤️ I was able to completely relax and enjoy a holiday because of how wonderful and ease she made me feel. Can't recommend enough!”
“Alex and her family looked after Sonny for three days while we were away, and we couldn't have asked for better care. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Sonny was clearly very happy, well looked after, and treated as part of the family. He enjoyed regular walks, including lovely walks in the forest, and it was wonderful to see him having such a great time. Alex was caring, reliable, and attentive to all of Sonny's needs. We are incredibly grateful for the love and care Sonny received and would highly recommend Alex and her family to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and trustworthy home for their pet.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and have lots of experience caring for them, including taking them to appointments and giving medication when needed. I live in a lovely town surrounded by lots of green spaces and beautiful nature walks, making it a great place for dogs to explore and enjoy plenty of exercise.

I would highly recommend Izzy and Dan to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring dog sitters. Thank you both!”

About: I'm currently a university student missing her dog back at home who I've been caring for him since he was a puppy. Even before that I have always had love for dogs and all other furry animals. I have lots of experience with various dogs and pets as I have been petsitting and dog walking for friends for several years now. With my dog, I take a special interest in his veterinary care and I'm comfortable with administering medication as I have had to manage this for two years now. I am currently a student and only work part time, so I am flexible and have much time to really take an interest in your pet for long walks, pet sitting in the day and occasional overnight petsitting! I will be happy to look after your furry friend in the pet owner's home. I can make sure your dog is happy and comfortable by ensuring they are well-fed and enriched with walks and play as well as continuing training if its needed.

About: Hello, I am Sarah-Beth😊 I am a confident and friendly dog lover. In the past 6 years I have experience in cat and dog home visits, and I have been used frequently to house and dog sit while my clients have been away on holiday. My experience has included key holding responsibility, dog walking, cleaning duties, and administering medication. I have a small car so would not be able to transport unfortunately, but I am happy to travel and visit your pooches at home and take them on their favourite local walks. I am currently saving for a house so I am open to all the work I can get. I am interested in arranging regular weekly visits, walks, or house sits for longer periods such as for holidays. Any questions are welcome and I hope to hear from you soon!🤍 I currently work full time at a primary school. I clean the school from 6am-8am, then work as a Teaching Assistant 8:30am-3:30pm. I am hard working and committed. I would be able to attend visits and walks after 3:30pm. I am really into fitness so an after work walk / run is already part of my daily routine. I will also have some weekend availability upon request. I strive to replicate the owners schedule and care habits as best I can to reduce stress for the pet and ensure routine is kept. I lost our family dog in 2021, he was a golden Labrador and he was the most lovable boy. I miss having the company of a pet and would enjoy giving that love to another families special fur baby. I am a budding runner and would love to have a fury friend by my side.
“Zoe was fabulous with our Henry! He’s a very pampered cat.. and isn’t sure of new people. But he was very settled and happy with Zoe. A chilled calm and happy little man when we returned home after a couple of days away. Zoe sent me a few photos- which is super reassuring. She took great care of our home. We would not hesitate to ask for Zoe again, or recommend her!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since childhood, and my love for them has only grown over the years. I adore their unique personalities—every cat is different, and I take the time to understand their needs, whether they’re playful, shy, or independent. I have experience with feeding, litter maintenance, playtime, and giving lots of affection (if they’re in the mood for it!). Your cat’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like my own while you’re away 🐈💖🐈⬛
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of pets, ranging from reptiles to small mammals and companion animals. I have cared for tortoises, goldfish, bearded dragons, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, cats, and dogs of all ages and temperaments. My experience includes supporting a senior dog recovering from a stroke, ensuring their comfort, safety, and rehabilitation while maintaining their daily routine and health needs. I have also successfully bred and raised dogs, overseeing a mother through three litters of puppies and providing comprehensive care for all puppies until they were eight weeks old. This included monitoring their health, socialization, nutrition, and early training, ensuring each puppy developed strong foundations for lifelong well-being. My approach to pet care is attentive, compassionate, and tailored to each individual animal’s needs, whether it’s maintaining specialized enclosures for reptiles, ensuring proper nutrition and enrichment for small mammals, or providing exercise, stimulation, and medical support for dogs and cats.

“We approached Rover at short notice, when a previous arrangement fell through. We were able to enjoy Latitude without worrying for our rather needy elderly cat. We were reassured with updates and pictures. Many thanks Elizabeth”
“Abby was very good at keeping us updated with her visits sending photos and a short summary of what she had done. We were extremely happy and impressed with her friendly but professional approach. We can certainly recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have take care of cats for many years, as the animals are very independent and determined i prefer to let them rome the house freely and have a constant food / water supply. I also have a cat only room as i do usually have dogs in my home. Rest assured the kittens and cats do not have to come into contact with the dogs and have a climbing, adventurous room to themselves!
“Gana has been a great help visiting my labrador. At the introduction meet up Gana asked all the questions I was expecting, and more. She is very knowledgeable, reliable and responsive to any communications. I would highly recommend her services.”

“Jess was absolutely amazing with Bailey! From the moment he arrived, she made him feel so welcome and comfortable. He also got on brilliantly with her two lovely dogs, which was really nice to see and meant he had some great company while he was there. 🐶❤️ Jess kept me updated and I felt completely reassured knowing Bailey was happy, settled and being so well looked after. He clearly had a lovely time and came home happy and content. I’m so grateful to Jess for taking such good care of him, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy and experienced. We’ll definitely be booking with Jess again! 🐾💕”
About: I’ve been around dogs and different animals my entire life, from my own pets to working on farms🐶. I’m 23 and have grown up with my own family Labradors and smaller dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities and needs. I’m the person my family and friends rely on to look after their pets when they’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they get plenty of attention, affection, exercise and, most importantly, feel happy and comfortable, as they are family members🥰. What sets me apart is that this isn’t just a job for me - I’m genuinely passionate about animals and take pride in giving every pet the care and attention they deserve and ensuring all their furry needs are met❤️ I’ve recently completed my Master’s degree in London and have moved back home for the next month or so. I currently have a very flexible schedule with no major commitments, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to your pets - whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles or simply keeping them company. I’m happy to work around your routine and give your furry friends the attention they need! 🐾 Your pet would be welcomed into a friendly, comfortable home where they can feel relaxed and part of the family. I have a Labrador and a small Jack Russell, both of whom are very friendly and love having other dogs around, so I’d just make sure they’re a good match beforehand. We have a fully enclosed back garden with access throughout the day, giving dogs plenty of space to roam, play and get some fresh air. There are also cosy areas around the house for relaxing, with stair gates used where needed to keep everyone safe. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection and care while they’re with me. 🐾
“We felt instantly at ease when we first met Alex to drop off our slightly nervous 1 year old cocker spaniel (Ronnie). We had regular updates throughout the evening which helped ease our worries - he fed him and took him out on a couple walks so he could do his business. He was also very accommodating to our needs as we needed to pick Ronnie up at the unsociable time of 11pm. Would definitely use Alex again if we are in the area and need help 👌”
“This was the first time I've left my puppy with someone and Andreas really reassured me. Trixy had a fab day (she told me ?) she had lots of fun. I would not hesitate to take Trixy to Andreas again.”

“We needed someone to look after our 6 month old puppy Cooper whilst we had a family day out. Paulina was amazing. So helpful and great communicator. We met the night before to have a chat and introduce Cooper. We received lots of updates and pictures through the day and Cooper had a great time. Thank you so much. Absolutely would recommend Paulina x”
“Kazoo had a good time with Sylvia. She was punctual, responded to messages quickly, and sent us updates throughout her stay. We also forgot her water bottle but Sylvia brought it round the next day.”
“Amazing! Great giving me lots of information and asking questions prior to our first visit. So friendly and welcoming when dropping him off and then updates and photos in the day - just the reassurance I didn’t know I wanted! At pick up he was so happy playing barely noticed me! Will certainly be recommending and re-using Amy! 🖤”
“Louise and family were great with Max! Great communication, nice to see some pictures of Max enjoying himself - even though we’d just booked a shorter day care visit - and you could tell Max enjoyed his time hanging out and spending time with Louise’s lovely pooch Luna too. Will definitely look to book again when we need Max looking after 🐶👏🏼”
About: Hi! Im Faith. 8+ years of animal and dog experience. From being a trainee Vet Nurse, dealing with check ups and consultations, working in a well known Kennels to thriving in an animal University and finishing with an Animal Care Diploma. I now have my own business after completing Pet Psychology which is mainly boarding and training however, i do offer consultations, virtual training and training with boarding, offered through my page. Boarding dogs and having lots of fun on the way is my day to day, and i wouldn’t change it! Making sure the dog/cat under my supervision is safe and happy is a key part to boarding, im constantly bringing comfort while their owners are away. I am very bubbly and enjoy most of my time walking and training dogs so they can live a happy life- whatever you need to make you feel comfortable, just let me know. I have a car so i can take the dogs on adventures to big parks and lakes. (I can offer a bath if they get smelly due to too much fun in the mud) I can also offer nail trimming and ear cleaning with all vet approved products. I have a first aid kit on site to keep minds at ease, but this is for safety reasons. Drop off and collections are either 7-9am or 4-6pm. Please make sure you are on time. For any queries on this, please let me know and i will do my best to accommodate. Please see page below for more details. Find me on Instagram- Miss Ivy’s (main business page) 🐶 I am focused on looking after your dog or cat throughout the week, i am home full time with dogs/other boards so can keep to a routine and make sure your pet is comfortable. I have a fenced garden, if the weather is hot, evening walks or AM walks are best. All pets have a safe space to play and run and have a comfy bed to sleep/relax.
About: I have been providing trusted pet care for family, friends, and neighbours since my teenage years. Growing up with three Staffies, I developed a deep understanding of dog behaviour early on. I have also loved and raised two dogs of my own: an Old Time Bulldog and, more recently, Trixie, our sweet Romanian rescue. I am highly comfortable with different breeds, histories, and rescue backgrounds. Our household is also home to two friendly indoor cats. one curious and one shy! We are also well-versed in feline personalities and boundaries. I would love to open up our home to care for your pets with the exact same love, attention, and dedication we give our own. My partner and I both work full time with a hybrid office and work from home schedule. Our routines are perfectly balanced so that at least one of us is almost always at home during the day. We can provide dedicated attention, frequent toilet breaks and walks, and companionship during the week and throughout the weekend. In our home, your pet becomes a true part of the family. We have a large, secure, fenced garden that is perfect for zoomies, sniffing, and safe playtime. Because one of us is almost always working from home, your dog will enjoy a natural, stress free routine filled with companionship, regular toilet breaks, and plenty of sofa cuddles. We absolutely love going for walks and will tailor the outdoor time to your dog's specific energy levels, whether that means an active trek or a gentle sniff walk. Since we have two indoor cats, we keep guest dogs in our main living areas and can use secure separation when needed to ensure everyone feels entirely safe and relaxed. When caring for your pets in your own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their normal, comforting routine. I will follow your exact instructions for feeding, medication, and sleep setups. For dogs, I love taking them out for their favourite local walks and ensuring they get plenty of outdoor exercise and stimulation. For cats and smaller pets, I dedicate focused time to interactive play or quiet companionship, depending on their personality. I am extremely respectful of your space, keeping your home perfectly clean, secure, and tidy. I will also send regular photo updates so you have total peace of mind 😊
“Sejal took good care of our whippet Toby for day care. When we did our meet and greet she was keen to know his personality and routine which immediately put me at each. Toby came home happy each day Sejal looked after him. We would definitely recommend Sejal.”
“Tor had a brilliant day with Elizabeth and her lovely dog Fergus - I hope it will be the first of many! He had lots of the kind of exercise, adventure and games in the open air that he loves most. Elizabeth is obviously very experienced and is a very calm and welcoming person, and Fergus is a friendly boy and sets a very good example of behaviour. The house and garden are a great size and so well situated in terms of safety and walks nearby. I felt very secure that my dog was in excellent hands.”

About: I have a qualification in animal care and first aid. I have looked after dogs and cats all of them with multiple different temperaments and needs. I am currently at college which means I do pet sitting on the weekends. I also regularly look after my neighbours dog during the week which consists of taking their dog for a walk and feeding. I care for animals in the pet owners home, which is where I let the dog out for toileting and a play. Then after they've done their business I then take them back in for some down time.
About: Hi, I’m Paulina — though the dogs know me as Pawlina 🐾! I run PAWLINA: Home for Pets, a safe, licensed, and insured home-from-home for dogs in Little Fransham. I hold a Breckland Council Animal Welfare Licence (AWL0208) for home boarding and daycare of up to 5 dogs, so you can be sure your pets are cared for to the highest standards. I’ve loved animals since I was a child—my home was always full of pets, and I’ve felt happiest outdoors in nature. I’m calm and gentle, which animals seem to naturally sense. Even the shyest ones warm up to me quickly and often come over for cuddles. I can't walk away when an animal needs help—like the little kitten I rescued and found a loving home for (take a peek at my gallery, but be prepared for a cuteness overload 😍). It makes me very happy to make animals feel safe and loved. What I also love about my pet-sitting work is the chance to meet wonderful people—pet owners who, like me, truly care about animals. From my experience, pet owners are some of the kindest and most caring individuals you can find, and I feel lucky to be around such a kind community. At Pawlina's, your furry family member will be safe, loved, and treated like one of my own. I can’t wait to welcome them and help them feel right at home! 🐾❤️ I work part-time from home — just a couple of hours in the morning and a couple in the afternoon, Monday to Friday. Because my job is home-based, I’m available all week to care for your pets. They’ll never be left for long periods and will always get plenty of time, care, and attention every single day. Together with my partner, I live in a cosy two-bed bungalow with a secure 0.17-acre garden in peaceful Little Fransham. The area is wonderfully quiet, with beautiful walks right on our doorstep — perfect for outdoor adventures with pets. Whether welcoming your furry friend into my spacious, pet-friendly home or caring for them in yours, I prioritise creating a calm and secure environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routines and preferences so they feel completely at ease.
About: I have taken care of many dogs from a young age. I am an animal lover and will take care of all dogs as if they were my own. I am a university student so have lots of spare time to walk your dog! I am available weekdays and some weekends and am very flexible to what hours suit you best. I have a fenced garden and have all the equipment required to take your dog on a safe and enjoyable walk! I have a very friendly cavapoo if your dog needs some company!

About: I’m an 18-year-old female living on a farm, with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals. I have two dogs of my own, including one who is quite nervous, so I understand the importance of patience, attention, and tailoring walks to suit each dog’s individual needs. I’m also confident handling larger, energetic dogs—my spaniels certainly keep me on my toes! At home, I care for an indoor cat who loves plenty of affection, so I’m equally comfortable providing gentle, attentive care for cats. I’m looking to offer dog walking and pet sitting alongside my studies, combining my passion for animals with staying active, while making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently studying radiology My availability’s are: Monday 3-5pm Tuesday 9-11am Wednesday 9am-5pm Thursday 2-5pm Friday 1-3pm Saturday & Sunday all day If you do have any requests for other times feel free to get in contact and i may be able to be flexible however this is my current time frames I focus on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent for every pet. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible and take note of any specific needs, whether that’s a nervous dog who needs a bit more patience or a high-energy dog that needs proper handling on walks. In an owner’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions around feeding, exercise, and care. I make sure pets are secure at all times—checking leads, gates, and surroundings. At my home on the farm, there’s plenty of space, but pets are always supervised in a safe environment, I am very aware of the ability dogs and cats may have as I’ve seen my puppy jump a big gate . Overall, I just aim to keep pets comfortable and well looked after while and for their owners to feel comfortable and confident their pets will be safe
“Susan walked Lenny once last Monday. I no longer need her as my regular dog walker is back from hols. I do not know why I have received a notice of reoccurring payment as I paid Rover £12.95 and also Susan £14. Can admin sort this out and confirm I do not pay for a reoccurring service with Susan. I did not set this up at any time, I don't expect Susan did either as she knew it was a one off arrangement.”

About: I grew up in a dog-loving home with an Irish Red Setter rescue and a Doberman we raised from a puppy, so I'm no stranger to big dogs with big personalities. Over the years, I've cared for pups of all sizes, breeds, and ages - from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while you're away. A recent move means I am now taking on new clients in and around Norwich. Please see my reviews and reach out for a chat if I can help to care for your pup! I’m working from home, with plenty of gaps in between for toilet breaks and walks in the park - I like to get away from my desk when I can and would love for your dog to join me. I’ve been house sitting for a number of years, both through Rover (please check my reviews) and word of mouth from my existing clients. I will care for your home as if it is my own. I am happy to discuss carrying out tasks unrelated to your pup, too.
“Faith was excellent with Rocky. It was his first time having someone else walk him for a longer period of time and she done an amazing job. Couldn’t recommend Faith enough. She’ll take great care of your pets, keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos and you can tell she cares a lot so you’re pet will get the best care from her! I Will 1000% use faith again!!”

About: Hi, I’m Abigail! 🐾 After six years in the emergency services, I decided to give up the uniform and follow my passion for dogs, the outdoors, and providing a safe, trustworthy service for pet owners. I provide a calm, secure, and welcoming home where your dog will feel completely at ease. Your dog/s will have constant care, attention, and plenty of affection throughout their stay. I’m home full-time, so your dog’s routine, safety, and happiness are always my priority. I have a large, fully secure garden with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, giving dogs plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy themselves safely. I share my home with my friendly Irish Setter, Rory, who is gentle, playful, and great with other dogs. He loves company and helps create a relaxed, social environment for visiting dogs. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages — from young puppies to senior dogs — and I’m confident supporting different needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter, slower pace, I will adapt to them. I come from a professional background where trust, responsibility, and safety were essential, and I bring that same level of care and attention into looking after every dog. 🐾 What you can expect: * A home-from-home environment * Dogs are never left alone * Secure garden for safe outdoor time * Walks tailored to your dog (on or off lead) * Regular updates, photos, and communication * Flexible and attentive care to suit your dog’s routine I’m very mindful that every dog is different, so I will always follow your instructions closely — from feeding and walking to sleep routines and preferences. I’m happy to care for dogs who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance — just let me know what helps them feel comfortable. We look forward to welcoming your dog into our home and giving you complete peace of mind ✨ Our calendar is kept up to date daily, and we’re always quick to respond to messages. We’re home seven days a week, so your dog will never be left alone. 🏡 A safe, secure, and relaxed environment My home is spacious and set up to give dogs a calm, safe place to settle in and feel comfortable. The garden is fully secure with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, so dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely. I live on a quiet, secluded street away from main roads, creating a peaceful environment that’s ideal for dogs of all temperaments. The garden is a great size for all breeds, with plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy a good run around. Large patio doors open directly onto the garden, allowing dogs to move freely between inside and outside when appropriate. They can also be closed to create a calm, cosy space for rest and nap times. Inside, the home is open-plan with plenty of room to relax, along with soft furnishings and lots of toys to keep dogs happy and entertained. For added safety, all human food is kept well out of reach, so you can feel confident your dog is in a secure and carefully managed environment.
