“India was amazing with our miniature dachshund Otis! Otis is a little prince who knows what he wants, so we’re really picky about who looks after him, but would recommend India to anyone and will 100% be booking him in again!”
“Kezia looked after our Weimeraner, Salto, and we can't recommend her enough. This was Salto's first time away and as he struggles the separation anxiety, we weren't sure how he would cope. Well we had no need to worry, Salto settled incredibly quickly and had a fantastic time, he has come home super happy and relaxed, which is better than any review I can give. Kezia kept us updated the whole weekend with plenty of photos, which we really appreciated and nothing was too much to ask. I've already started looking at more weekends away and won't hesitate to use Kezia again. Thank you! ✨”
“We messaged Sarah last minute due to another sitter letting us down. Sarah looked after Otis like one of her own. She sent regular updates and photos of Otis having the best time. Would definitely book again and also recommend!! Thank you Sarah!”
“Frances was Amazing!! Our dog Bruce had the best time. He looked immediately at home. No stress leaving him, Frances was very accommodating to his qwerks!!! Kept us updated with photos throughout his stay. Thank you 😀”
About: Hi, I’m Maria! 🐾 I am home full-time with my dog Teddy by my side. We love canine company and would be delighted to welcome your furry friend into our home. I'm available for full day care, and possibly overnight stays. Our home is calm and child-free, making it an ideal environment for dogs who need a peaceful space. Teddy is a small dog who is great with other dogs and enjoys having playmates to share his day with. We have a secure garden where they can play safely. Since I'm here around the clock, your dog will receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout their stay -they'll never be left alone for long periods. I’m at home all day. My little dog is walked by 10am most mornings and then has the use of the garden for the rest of the day. In the nicer weather he may get more walks!! I have a secure garden for dogs to enjoy, including a safely fenced-off pond area so they can explore while staying protected. Safety is always my priority.
“Inga and family took great care of Lola, I would highly recommend, we got lots of photos and updates, Lola was very happy with the family. I would definitely book Inga in the future.”
“This was our first time leaving Jake in the very capable hands of William. William and his partner were very friendly and welcoming and Jake clearly enjoyed his time with them. We have no hesitation in recommending this host to other owners.”
“I left a domino for the first time he had been left outside of family this weekend and it was a really positive experience for both of us. Domino had a great time and was even a bit reluctant to leave his new friends. I would not hesitate to use Martin again or recommend him to others.he obviously adores dogs and has good knowledge in how to care for them.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life quite literally, my first present as a newborn straight out of hospital was a gorgeous black ball of fur aka Tyson a German shepherd puppy and from that day on we were inseparable…. Needless to say now gsd’s are my favorite breed and will always be my favorite butttt and that’s a very big but all dogs of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart. I get on with dogs better then I do humans forming special bonds and an instant attachment to any dog I lay eyes on. I can’t go anywhere without stopping whoever has a dog and asking them if I can make a fuss of them so I thought I would put this love or obsession whatever you like to call it to good use and help others and welcome your dogs into my home where they will be loved like my own and part of our pack… I am currently a stay at home mum who is looking for an extra income to contribute more to my household and my family? So I have availability pretty much all day every day from 10 AM up until 2 o’clock I am free and from 4:30 till whenever you need I am free. I will have my children with me if you are happy with that I have a baby and a toddler that don’t go to school yet if it’s at the weekend, then I will be Child free. This does not affect my ability to do my job as I have pets myself and I look after them with my children. If your dogs are other dog friendly, I’m happy for your dogs to join us, if not that’s ok too I can take them separately. I have two dogs myself who are more than happy to keep your dogs company. I can crate your dog for safety, If it is needed I have a garden and children that would love to play with your dogs if your dogs are at my home or you are happy for my children to play with your dogs then my toddler is more than happy to if my other two are at school. I have plenty of fans in my house for this hot weather and they are on all the time. If your dog is at my home, there is freshwater everywhere in my home. I have no rules in my house for dogs, being toilet trained is preferred but if your dog is old incontinent or still a puppy, it is absolutely fine. I have hardwood floors and dogs have accidents happen. It’s easily cleaned up. Your dog will be more than at home here they’ll be allowed up on the sofas in our garden.

“Jen was absolutely incredible, and I genuinely couldn’t have wished for a better person to look after my cat, Boo. From day one, she sent regular updates with the loveliest messages and lots of gorgeous photos of Boo playing, relaxing, and looking completely happy and content. Those updates gave me so much peace of mind and made being away so much easier. Jen spent time playing with her, making sure she was comfortable, and treated her as if she were her own. Seeing how relaxed and happy Boo was excellent. Jen truly went above and beyond in every way, and I can’t thank her enough for taking such wonderful care of Boo. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is priceless. I honestly won’t be booking with anyone else from now on. Thank you again! Xxx”
“Michaela was absolutely wonderful. She’s incredibly kind and warm, and our kittens took to her immediately which says everything. Her attention to detail was spot on; she followed all instructions perfectly and checked in regularly with thoughtful updates. If she was ever unsure about anything, she asked rather than guessing, which we really appreciated. We also came home to a spotless house, exactly as we left it... which, with two kittens, is no small feat. On top of all that, she’s genuinely easy to talk to and very reassuring. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and would recommend her without reservation.”
“Another amazing cat sitting by Jenni, it was ever so last minute as I was disorganised but Jenni was so understanding. Both of my cats recognise her now, even my very very shy cat Peggy came in for a little bit of fuss. Highly recommend Jenni! ”
“This was the second time Grace has looked after my cats. As before, she was efficient and friendly. Even my shy cat Arthur put in an appearance and she sent me photographic evidence to prove it. 😸”
About: I had cats all throughout my childhood and although not now, I still love a cat head nudge! I can't take cats in my home but I'd love to help out by checking in on locals and giving them some attention, food or whatever they need!
“Taylor has been wonderful, so kind and attentive to our cat while we have been away. Taylor was kind enough to send me messages through WhatsApp as well as through the app so I can keep updated, and I couldn't recommend her more.”

“Tania was a wonderful cat sitter for us whilst we went away, she came in at short notice, did everything we asked, did her best to bond with our 2 cats despite them being very shy around new people. The daily updates were perfect & put us at ease as we had never used a service like this before. Cannot recommend Tania enough :)”

“It was obvious Miguel had an amazing time with Becky from the way he has been so chill coming home but also the way he was leaning against her and wanting a fuss when we were leaving! Becky was excellent at communicating on Miguel and we felt totally at ease to leave him to have a doggy daycare. Thanks so much again Becky and we will all look forward to seeing you again 🥰”

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with family dogs and was lucky enough to own a lovely Spaniel myself, so I understand just how much our pets mean to us. I also have spent eight years working alongside working dogs in the Civil Service, which gave me great experience around dogs with different personalities, needs, and routines. Above all, I genuinely love animals and enjoy spending time with them. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply having company throughout the day, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday to Friday and have the flexibility of working from home on certain days. However, when I agree to look after your dog, I will ensure that I am not working so that I can give them the time, attention, and care they deserve. I enjoy being active and love going on long walks, so your dog will have plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor adventures. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced garden where dogs can safely enjoy time outdoors, and I live just a 5-minute walk from a large open playing field, perfect for walks, exercise, and playtime. I take great pride in caring not only for dogs but also in maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming home environment.
“Just a brilliant experience from start to finish. Such a great household and family, Benji clearly had a fantastic time, Buddy (Simon's dog) is brilliant. Benji was very happy, such a professional experience, sent us photos throughout the day, just exceeded expectations completely and absolutely going back again! Thank you so much!”
“First time Rory stayed with Amy. It went very well. He walked straight into her house. He was made to feel so welcome. He was already settled in the living room when I left. He had, by all accounts, a great day if the photos are anything to go by, with a couple of walks, and endless ball games. When I picked him up, he was his usual happy self which tells me he had a great day. Will definitely be asking Amy again when the need arises. Thank you so much Amy”
“Kezia looked after my 14 week old cockapoo puppy today. It was a big step to leave him for the first time, but Kezia and her partner were really lovely, helpful and accommodating from the initial 'meet & greet' a few weeks ago though to the drop off and collection today. Kezia provided pics and updates during the booking which reassured me that Ben was having a great time. I intend to use Kezia again, I have no hesitation in recommending her to others. She was simply brilliant. Thank you so much! Clive”

“Couldn’t recommend Avinash enough! Avinash looked after our girl recently, and was absolutely brilliant with her.

About: There has never not been an animal in my life. I’m a big dog lover and absolutely adore spending time with them. My childhood was spent predominantly around Alsatians and now have a gorgeous spaniel. I have volunteered at local puppy classes over the last year from which I gained invaluable experience for the development of my puppy. I am a nurse and work predominantly Monday to Wednesday. Thursday to Sunday I have a lot of flexibility for drop ins, walks and or boarding. I am happy to do local walks or just cuddles and attention. I aim to provide a personalised service and happy to discuss specific needs/requests. I have a gorgeous working cocker spaniel. We have crate trained him from the beginning and he is very well behaved with an incredible temperament. We attended several puppy classes and have been consistent with his routine.

“Emma and Mike were fantastic with Bruno this week. They were able to help with early drop off and later pick ups for day care as we both work long shifts. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures of Bruno and what he had been doing. He came back happy and relaxed every day. We have already booked for the next dates we need and would have no issue recommending to friends who need someone to look after their dog.”
“Thanks so much to Christian and Sarah for taking such good care of our lovely young dog Bryn. Bryn who we have adopted recently is still quite hyper and also prone to pushing limits and it was great to know he was in safe confident hands. Will certainly hope that he can come back again soon. Thanks!”

About: I've always adored dogs, ever since I was a child begging my parents every day for one. Dream granted when I was 10! We had a tri-coloured rough collie, and I have been infatuated ever since. I've helped family administer medication orally or via syringe to our old sausage dogs who had diabetes, walked and played with the border collie and rough collie, and currently assist with walking the elderly greyhounds in my new residence. Dogs make my day better, and I am still prone to pointing out every dog I see in public! I am currently exploring new career paths (previously working in IT for 4 years), so am currently available most days! Please reach out and ask - I can probably make it work :) There is an elderly greyhound in my new home so I cannot host any other pets at my house. In an owner's home, I would ask if there are any specific requirements for the pet(s) and make notes on this. I tend to speak a lot in a soft voice to animals that are nervous, and give them space if needed. For more outgoing pets, I can act more rambunctious and play! If they like cuddles, I'm all for that, too!
“Alan was great with my dog Winnie! He met her prior, was kind and patient as she can be shy, kept me updated, and sent adorable pictures of Winnie and his dog Poppy on their walk. Highly recommend!”
About: I've been caring for friends and families dogs for as long as I can remember and have since owned my own dog for 6 years now! I have also previously worked as a community carer which involved lots of pet care to all types of animals that clients owned! I absolutely love the outdoors and walking to new places in the countryside surrounding, and combining that with looking after a dog is the perfect mix! I've only just graduated university so whilst working part-time hours, I'd love to fill my spare time getting to hang out with pups! I regularly go out walking both alone, with friends and with my own dog too. I have a fully fenced garden and a calm, friendly dog living home who gets on with anyone and anything (apart from the pigeons that live in our garden tree!). We allow him to go everywhere in the house and leave the doors to the garden open at all times for easy access whenever he wants!

About: I’ve had dogs in my home my entire life and have always been actively involved in their daily care. Growing up with dogs taught me not just how to love them, but how to understand their needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful or prefers quiet cuddles, I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I treat every dog like part of the family. I work full-time, but my hours are slightly flexible and depending on location I am able to leave at lunch for a drop-in, my weekends are also very flexible. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I understand that pets feel safest when their schedule stays familiar, so I carefully follow feeding times and any specific care guidelines provided.
“Jane B. has been walking my Chocolate Brown Labrador puppy, Willow (10 months old), for a few weeks now, and it has been a huge help. Knowing that while I’m at work, Willow is being visited and walked around the neighbourhood by a friendly, familiar face gives me great peace of mind. From their very first introduction, Jane and Willow bonded well, and Jane has been wonderful in offering useful tips and advice along the way. Jane is a complete professional and I trust her 100% with Willow. It’s already clear that Willow looks forward to her walks with Jane, and is benefitting from them, which makes for an enjoyable experience for both of them.”
About: I have been dog, cat, and house sitting since childhood! I have volunteered at SPCA and have always found or adopted my pets. I grew up with a golden retriever and several cats. My schedule is very flexible right now, as I recently relocated to bury st Edmund's. Hoping to make the most of my time by helping out others and getting to spend time with their furry family. I have spent many years caring for pets of friends and family in their homes. I've always felt that it's easier to keep them in their home where they are familiar and comfortable and I am the one who is in their space. They are already missing their parents (owners) no need to add more stress.

I have experience with a wide range of animals, from energetic dogs and nervous pups to cats, small animals like gerbils and hamsters, reptiles, and even bigger animals like horses and donkeys . I understand that every pet has a unique personality and will adapt my approach based on their behaviour and body language.Also i love taking pictures so you’ll always have updates with photos and peace of mind while your pet is with me.
“Charlotte was brilliant with Rusty again, great communication and fab pictures! He always looks like he’s having a great time and Charlotte keeps me up to date and reassured that he is okay whenever she is with him. Thank you!”

About: I've have had dogs in my life for more than 20 years. Growing up, I had four family dogs, including a rescue dog from Dogs Trust and a retired ex-racing Greyhound. Caring for dogs with different personalities, backgrounds and needs gave me a great understanding of how important patience, routine and trust are in helping dogs feel happy and secure. Alongside my love of dogs, I've always been passionate about horses. I owned and competed three horses of my own before going on to work professionally on a busy equestrian yard. This experience taught me responsibility, attention to detail and the importance of providing the highest standard of care for animals. Today, I have two Cockapoos who are at the centre of my world. Life revolves around them, from daily countryside walks and adventures to dog-friendly holidays where they join us for long walks and exploring new places. They are very much part of the family and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. One of my Cockapoos is reactive, which has given me extensive hands-on experience working with dogs who need a little extra understanding and support. I've worked closely with a number of professional dog trainers and have spent a lot of time learning about canine behaviour, body language and positive training methods. This is something I'm particularly passionate about and continue to learn more about every day. I will always treat your dog as if they were my own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, care, exercise and affection while they're with me. As a full-time dog mum to my two Cockapoos and with a full-time job, I currently offer weekend walks and drop-in visits. This allows me to provide your dog with my full attention and care. I hope to expand my availability to weekdays in the future. Your dog's safety, happiness and wellbeing will always be my top priority. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else's care. I will always take the time to get to know your dog's individual needs, routine and personality to ensure they feel as relaxed and happy as possible. I have experience with dogs of different ages, breeds and temperaments, including rescue dogs and reactive dogs. Having worked closely with professional trainers to support my own reactive Cockapoo, I understand the importance of reading canine body language, maintaining safe distances when needed and ensuring every walk is tailored to the individual dog. I will always follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have complete peace of mind while your dog is in my care. My aim is to provide a safe, calm and caring experience where your dog feels comfortable, secure and loved.
“I've never left my lab with anyone before apart from family, so I was quite nervous leaving her with someone I didn't know. However, Frances was fantastic from the start. Excellent communication and most importantly took great care of Luna. Will be booking again. Thank you again Frances 😊”
About: Hi, I'm Tavia! I have grown up in Suffolk with labradors and previously owned my own small dog. I have also lived with a very sweet doberman! I frequently look after dogs for family and friends and happy to look after more! Happy to give as many walks and cuddles as required. I work from home a few days of the week so I am able to be relatively flexible to suit your needs. I can go for walks throughout the day and there is also a fenced garden for your dog to enjoy as well as space to roam indoors. My home has zero pets so there is no need to worry about other pets in the house. Please feel free to message me about any requests.
About: Hi, I’m Angela, I’m 34 years old and live in Monks Eleigh. Over the last 3 years I have developed this new found love of mine into RIO’s RETREAT SUFFOLK which I run alongside Rover. If you would like details of Rio’s retreat Suffolk please let me know or check out our website. I am fully licensed & insured. I have updated my profile to enable a better insight into what I do & who I am. I have recently left the police having worked as a police officer in London. I have gone back into health care to enable a better work life balance and to do what I love… be with animals. I grew up on a small holding with a range of livestock & cattle. I was lucky enough to grow up with and around gun dogs who I just adore; the crazier the better 😂. WHY IM DOING THIS I started rover to fill a void, I left an abusive marriage which resulted in my horse & dog being given away. I missed animals & being outside so I started rover hoping to meet a few pups. I have been extremely lucky & grateful to meet some amazing families and their lovely fluffy friends. I never expected to be as busy as I have been and I couldn’t ask for kinder people to welcome me into their homes. Whilst looking after your animals I only ever have one animal boarding at a time. I also only do solo dog walks. I’m not interested in over filling my home or putting dogs at risk by walking 10 at a time just to make money. Your animal is purely my priority and has all my time and attention. I’m more than happy to take your pets out for long walks, drive to parks, vet checks ect. No preferences or needs are too big or too small, Even just throw a ball and have lots of cuddles. I had a cocker spaniel and as long as he had his ball and his mum that’s all he needed :) MY PETS I am very lucky to have the sweetest & kindest Labrador who was kindly rehomed to me through rover. She loves people & dogs more then anything but if your dog boards with us we have arrangements in place if your dog cannot be kept with other dogs. I also have rescue cats & Guinea pigs who are out the way of staying pets. SO WHY AM I DOING THIS? I love long walks, muddy paws and slobbery kisses more than anyone could imagine. I adore animals, I am a very patient and sensible person, so whatever your pet or their personality, we will get along just fine. I’m happy for regular updates and perfectionist owners who want to leave me lists (please tell me I’m not the only one who does this haha) Please feel free to ask me any questions. I am fully DBS checked & have full public liability cover. I have currently changed jobs so I now only work a couple of nights a week. I take leave for the nights I have the pleasure of looking after your animals. Your animals will be treated like royalty, animals have been a huge part of my life and my life has always revolved around them. There is always plenty of cuddles, play time or chill time whatever they prefer. I’m more than happy to drive to parks or forests for a variety to their life, it will be my pleasure to exercise your animals for you. I am also public liability insured.

“India was amazing with our miniature dachshund Otis! Otis is a little prince who knows what he wants, so we’re really picky about who looks after him, but would recommend India to anyone and will 100% be booking him in again!”
“Kezia looked after our Weimeraner, Salto, and we can't recommend her enough. This was Salto's first time away and as he struggles the separation anxiety, we weren't sure how he would cope. Well we had no need to worry, Salto settled incredibly quickly and had a fantastic time, he has come home super happy and relaxed, which is better than any review I can give. Kezia kept us updated the whole weekend with plenty of photos, which we really appreciated and nothing was too much to ask. I've already started looking at more weekends away and won't hesitate to use Kezia again. Thank you! ✨”
“We messaged Sarah last minute due to another sitter letting us down. Sarah looked after Otis like one of her own. She sent regular updates and photos of Otis having the best time. Would definitely book again and also recommend!! Thank you Sarah!”
“I left a domino for the first time he had been left outside of family this weekend and it was a really positive experience for both of us. Domino had a great time and was even a bit reluctant to leave his new friends. I would not hesitate to use Martin again or recommend him to others.he obviously adores dogs and has good knowledge in how to care for them.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life quite literally, my first present as a newborn straight out of hospital was a gorgeous black ball of fur aka Tyson a German shepherd puppy and from that day on we were inseparable…. Needless to say now gsd’s are my favorite breed and will always be my favorite butttt and that’s a very big but all dogs of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart. I get on with dogs better then I do humans forming special bonds and an instant attachment to any dog I lay eyes on. I can’t go anywhere without stopping whoever has a dog and asking them if I can make a fuss of them so I thought I would put this love or obsession whatever you like to call it to good use and help others and welcome your dogs into my home where they will be loved like my own and part of our pack… I am currently a stay at home mum who is looking for an extra income to contribute more to my household and my family? So I have availability pretty much all day every day from 10 AM up until 2 o’clock I am free and from 4:30 till whenever you need I am free. I will have my children with me if you are happy with that I have a baby and a toddler that don’t go to school yet if it’s at the weekend, then I will be Child free. This does not affect my ability to do my job as I have pets myself and I look after them with my children. If your dogs are other dog friendly, I’m happy for your dogs to join us, if not that’s ok too I can take them separately. I have two dogs myself who are more than happy to keep your dogs company. I can crate your dog for safety, If it is needed I have a garden and children that would love to play with your dogs if your dogs are at my home or you are happy for my children to play with your dogs then my toddler is more than happy to if my other two are at school. I have plenty of fans in my house for this hot weather and they are on all the time. If your dog is at my home, there is freshwater everywhere in my home. I have no rules in my house for dogs, being toilet trained is preferred but if your dog is old incontinent or still a puppy, it is absolutely fine. I have hardwood floors and dogs have accidents happen. It’s easily cleaned up. Your dog will be more than at home here they’ll be allowed up on the sofas in our garden.
“Henry had a great day with Lily and her other doggy charges - he slept very soundly when he got home! Lily was very responsive and sent photos throughout the day - we will certainly use her services again”
“Sarah and her husband had our 11 month old Labrador Toby for the weekend. You could not find kinder people to look after your dog. Plenty of updates to let us know he was okay and it was clear that he had enjoyed his time with Sarah and her family”
“Mia is an exceptional host for Rover, both Lexi & Marley have really enjoyed there stay with Mia, l will be 100% be booking again when l need to be away from home. Mia, l can’t thank you enough for the very professional and kind hospitality you afforded my puppies you really put my mind at rest whilst l was away, big licks from the dogs xx”

“This was our first time using Cayman and we will definitely be using her again! She was very easy to communicate with to schedule a meet and greet and was absolutely amazing with our pups for the week she had them. Thanks again for such a great experience!”
“Lloyd was so communicative and Rory had a great time with him and Hudson! Lots of walks to open fields and she came home happy and tuckered out! So so happy with Rory’s care during her time with Lloyd.”
“Lubomira spoilt my Maya rotten! I was showered with photos and videos the whole time I was away to keep me at ease and let me know what she was up to! Maya thoroughly enjoyed her stay. I have already rebooked!! Thank you very much for looking after my fur baby so well :)”
“It's great to know that your dog will be happy when you go away. Spud loves to be at Serena's (he get's excited at the front door when we drop him off!!), she keeps us informed while we are away and he settles back in at home as if he has never been away.”
“Monty had a WONDERFUL stay with Caroline and Steph!! She sent photos and videos every day so we could see he was happy and loved whilst with them. We also had a late return and they were very accommodating with that, which was very kind. To top it all off, Monty has come back super well behaved - it’s amazing! No more jumping and he’s been so relaxed and good as gold which only confirms how well cared he was. We won’t hesitate in leaving him with Caroline again. Thank you both for loving our baby as one of yours!”
“Hi guys, sorry we didn’t get to meet as Olive was dropped off by Sarah’s mum but Olive sends her love and says she had a wonderful time. Being on a farm with 3 boys willing to throw her a ball - what’s not to like!? BTW my owners forgot to let you know that I only get 3/4 of a pack of one of the food pouches and so I was basically in total bliss. Came back and ignored my owners for the first 24 hours as they clearly have no idea how to look after a dog. X”
“Everything went really well from start to finish with Dee. Doug was so happy living with his new buddy Ron that I'm not sure if he really wanted to come home. I would highly recommend.”
“100% recommend! Lovely couple and amazing with our dog! Always in contact to let us know how she was and treated her like their own. Can’t thank them enough! Already booked our dog to stay with them for our next holiday. Thank you so much!”
“Gitana is a brilliant sitter! We left our springer cross (Dora) with her for 6 nights and she had a great time. Gitana was excellent with communication, updating us everyday with pictures. Gitana was also happy to meet beforehand for a pre-meet with us and Dora. If you are considering using Gitana I would strongly recommend!”
