“Thank you to Jakub’s lovely family for looking after Toby so well. They are experienced and flexible, it was easy and worry free leaving our dog with them, we appreciated the regular updates and know Toby was treated like one of the family. I will definitely rebook Jakub in the future if we need to go away without Toby. Highly recommended. Thank you.”
“Carla and Jim looked after our 6 month old puppy for the weekend and we couldn’t have been happier with the love and care our Betsy received. We had lots of pupdates with pictures and could see our fur baby was really cared for. We will definitely be using these lovely people again and would highly recommend them.”
“Ayesha was absolutely amazing. She stepped in and accepted our booking for a 2-night overnight stay with less than 24 hours’ notice after another sitter cancelled at the last minute, which was such a relief. Our dog has separation anxiety and usually struggles being left with new people, but from the moment we dropped him off it was clear he was in safe, caring hands. Even after a difficult first night, Ayesha handled everything so patiently and professionally, and he settled really well the following day. She kept us updated throughout with regular messages, videos, and photos, which really put our minds at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
“This was our first time using a dog sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the start, communication was great, and we got daily updates with pictures and videos of him playing with the other dogs — that put us at ease knowing he was enjoying himself. He came home happy, tired, and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“It’s the first time I’d left my two golden doodles with Tom, so I was a little nervous about how they would behave, however loads of pup-dates letting me know that they were happy and behaving made for a happy dog owner. I’d happily use Tom again”
“We met Linda prior to Noodles stay, such a lovely lady. Noodles had a great time. Linda kept us updated with pics and messages at least once every day. Noodles is on medication twice daily and Linda was happy to administer his tablets. I can't recommend Linda highly enough we will certainly be letting Noodles stay with Linda again xx”
“It was my first time using Eszter and she was brilliant. She came round to my house to meet the dogs beforehand. My dogs are rescue and unfortunately were unsettled during the night (absolutely no fault of Eszter) but she reassured me that this can happen occasionally. I was sent lots of photos during their stay and I felt they were very well looked after. Would definitely recommend this lady”
“Carment and her family looked after my German Short Haired Pointers over the bank holiday weekend. They were very welcoming when I dropped Otto and Henry off and I left feeling happy and confident that they would be well looked after. Their house is lovely with planty of space for the dogs and a great garden. Carmen snet me losts of videos and photos over the weekend showing Otto and Henry having a great time in the garden and on walks. I could tell when I picked them up theat they'd been well looked after and had got on well with the other dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend Carmen to anyone looking for a great home for their dogs to stay. Thank you Carmen. We''ll be back!”
“Right from the start of my enquiry to booking Sarah was a pleasure to deal with! My dog had a lovely time and I got daily updates and pictures!! I can’t recommend Sarah enough and will definitely book with her again! Thank you Sarah and Family!”
“Mandy was amazing and I would have no hesitation in recommending. The only challenge was the dogs didn’t appear to be as excited as they normally are when I return which speaks volumes! I also really appreciated the regular updates, photos and videos.”
“Effie had the best week ever with Christina and her family. It was truly a home away from home for her - she definitely would have stayed longer! She was so well looked after and Christina sent us loads of updates. Highly highly recommend!”
“Jo and Ian were the perfect sitters for our Millie. They keep us updated throughout her stay re how she was getting on and sent photos so we could see how relaxed and happy she was, as well as being perfectly spoilt throughout her stay. We would definitely use them again.”
“Hayley was brilliant with my 10 month old spaniel, and he got plenty of attention and play with Her and her family. Im sure he would love to go back when I go away next.”
“Peanut had a lovely week with Kayleigh and her family, she loved playing with Bailey there dog, I was updated with how she was doing through the week and would definitely use Kayleigh again in the future.”
“Scott was an absolutely fantastic home boarder for my two sausage dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he provided. From the moment I dropped them off, it was clear they were in safe and loving hands. The dogs had a wonderful time and settled in so well - it was obvious they felt right at home. Scott’s communication throughout their stay was brilliant; he kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which really put my minds at ease. I would highly recommend Scott to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet boarder.”
“Irina was amazing with my dog ozzy! she was very patient as he is very nervous with new people but she is a natural and I’m very happy to know he will be looked after while I go away 😁”
“Kelly and her family were fantastic! It was my first time using Rover but it was perfect. I was kept updated with messages and pictures throughout the week I was away which was perfect and Kelly listened to everything that was needed as my dog has specific food allergies. I would definitely use again, thank you!”

“Couldn't leave a better review imo. Jessica is an amazing person and we are so glad we asked her to look after our cats. Jessica is easy to talk too and proven to be trustworthy and I can't actually put it into words how much she made us feel at ease leaving our pets with her. She's so friendly and even the miserable bitey creature didn't mind her. Definitely our go to person if we need cat care again. Thanks so much Jessica 💓💓💓”
“First time we have used the Rover app for looking after our two cats and couldn’t recommend Oscar enough. Loved getting photos while we were away. I think Theo was gutted when we got home!”
“Shannon looked after our dog hazelnut whilst we were away, hazelnut is a mastiff cross and is a very bouncy energetic dog who can be too much for just about anyone. Shannon had absolutely no issues with looking after her and did a superb job she ticked all of the boxes possible, she fed her, gave hazel her daily medication, opened the door for her to pee, played with her, kept her company and didn’t leave until she was settled We received daily updates, photos and a summary of how she was, Shannon even brought in our parcels and fed our fish, when Hazel ripped up a cushion Shannon cleared it up. Shannon was nothing but attentive and kept us at ease whilst we were away, she’s a very friendly and kind woman, Hazel has been waiting by the door this morning checking if she is coming back to given her breakfast We hope to have the opportunity to hire her again!”

“Kayleigh was absolutely wonderful. She was kind, caring, and very cooperative throughout the whole process. Communication was excellent, and she made us feel completely at ease knowing our pet was in such good hands. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you, Kayleigh!”
About: I have a 14 year old cat Poppy who is diabetic so I have experience in administering medication via injection and orally. My daughter also has a labrador who I often take care of for her at weekends. I currently work from 9-5 Monday to Thursday and from home on a Friday so I am available evenings and most weekends, and will also be able to do drop ins some mornings. I am very attentive and happy to follow any instruction provided to me by the pet owners. I love to go walking so am very happy to provide as much walking as needed.
About: Cats have always had a very special place in my heart. I’ve shared my life with four wonderful cats, including one who was truly my world, and I understand the unique bond people have with their feline companions. I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs, from feeding and keeping routines to providing comfort, play, and companionship. I’ve also looked after other people’s cats both drops in and overnight stays and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for them while you’re away. I know cats can be very individual, so I always take the time to let them come to me, respect their space, and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved.
“Irina was very helpful and cooperative and took good care of our furry boys while we were away. She was responsive to messages and easy to communicate with, and everything was handled as arranged. We appreciate her support and thank her for looking after them.”
About: I am currently looking after a dog for a friend on a weekly basis, often going to the park, looking after him overnight, and sometimes day trips. I have raised my family dog since he was a puppy, so am fully aware of what that entails. When I go back home, I walk and take care of him. I live with my boyfriend who has had cats in the past, so I am used to having them in the house and how to take care of them. With this, I have lots of experience of walking, feeding, bathing, and keeping pets happy! I'm currently working from home full-time, so can look after pets at any time! My hours are also very flexible so I'm able to go for walks during my working day. I live in a flat, with a secure back garden that is fenced in. The front door to the flat block is always kept locked. I am happy to do whatever is needed to keep your pet safe and happy!
About: My prices may be a little higher than some on Rover, but I am the ONLY licensed dog boarder on this site in Peterborough. This means that I am regulated by the Council who have inspected my property and approved me as a professional boarder/daycare provider, governed by DEFRA regulations. Licence Number 119691 Issued by Peterborough City Council. Please use this link to receive £15 off your first booking with me…. https://www.rover.com/sit/lynnd34729 Please ensure any dog boarder or doggy daycare provider that you use, is licensed by the local Council. If they don’t display a license number, they haven’t got one !!! Any insurance that they may hold (including any that Rover give) will be invalidated….as any insurance will be, that you have. Don’t take the chance of something happening to your furbaby ! Ask to see the license…..to make sure. At Dixons dog sitters, we are BIG softies for all animals....but especially for dogs. I have owned and looked after dogs of my own now, for over 40 years and the profile photo shows our pup...7 year old Polly. I have now professionally looked after other peoples dogs for 4 years. I have full public liability insurance. I also hold a pet first aid certificate and a diploma in pet care. Our dog, Polly is such a fun little girl, who loves to play. Polly can sometimes be bossy with younger dogs, but once settled down they quickly form very close friendship bonds. She shares her toys, her home, her owners…and even her food with her new doggy friends. I am semi retired and work part time from home, so I am available 24/7 to pamper and care for your fur baby. Paul (my Husband) works nights, so is up and around from lunchtime every day, so there is ALWAYS someone at home. Your dog will never be left alone, and when it is too hot or too wet to go outside, there are always lots of toys to play with. They will DEFINITELY get spoiled when they holiday with Aunty Lynn and Uncle Paul ! We will care for small to medium sized dogs that fit the following criteria. However, we do occasionally take on bigger dogs (lurchers, labradors etc) Your dog needs to be socialised with other dogs. Not be aggressive in any way. Walk nicely on the lead. Be able to sleep alone or with other dogs. Please take a look at some of the reviews left by owners. Dixons dog sitters holds £2million public liability insurance and we will take care of your fur baby, as well as we take care of our own. I always insist on a meet and greet before your dog comes to stay. This will reassure you, that our house is a safe, secure, clean and loving environment. You get to meet our dog and any other dogs that are staying at the time. This makes the whole process so much easier to handle for everyone concerned. I know how stressful it can be, to leave your pets with anyone, other than family. We will never take dogs out in the heat of the day, or when it is raining heavily and won't let them off lead, unless told that they can be trusted to not run away. We have a large secure garden with shaded areas to play in, and enjoy indoor playtime and enrichment activities, when we are unable to go out for a walk, due to adverse weather conditions. We allow all dogs the full run of the house.....but have a barrier at the bottom of the stairs, and at the entrance to the kitchen, where they can be contained, if we open the front door. We are getting electric gates fitted soon. Every aspect is covered to keep them safe, secure and happy, whilst they are in my care. We always send lots of updates and photos to reassure owners. I am licensed to board 5 dogs at a time, so your dog needs to be well socialised and toilet trained. All dogs are walked once/twice a day....weather and ability dependant. All dogs are let out into our large secured garden to play, or go to the toilet every hour or so. In the Summer months, the back door is left open, so they can come and go as they please. Their last toilet break is usually around midnight. Your fur baby will become part of our family whilst you are away. There are no favourites in this household, and no forbidden areas. Everyone is treated the same. If Polly goes for a walk, so does your dog. If Polly gets a treat, so does your dog. You can enjoy your time away, knowing that your fur baby will not just be taken care of….they will be loved. Please read my testimonials. Lynn is semi retired and works from home and Paul works nights, so is up and about from lunchtime onwards. There is always at least one of us at home. We have a large private and secure garden where dogs can run and play. Enrichment activities are part of the day and walkies are twice daily. We have a barrier that is placed at the bottom of the stairs and a barrier to contain any dogs whilst we answer the front door.
“Heidi was absolutely brilliant. She’s the perfect fit for our little Bing! I could never recommend her enough, I couldn’t have hoped for anyone better to look after Bing and our house while we were away🖤🖤”
“Danielle has a natural way with cats and took great care of my boys for me while I was away . She even hoovered up the mess my cats made with their cat litter . She is very thoughtful and clearly a true animal lover”

“I had a great experience with Carla and Jim! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care. From the start, they were incredibly friendly and approachable, which immediately put me at ease. They arranged a meet and greet beforehand, which was a really thoughtful touch and helped both me and my dog feel comfortable before the stay as it was my first time using Rover. During the time they were looking after my dog, they provided regular updates and photos, which was so reassuring and showed how well my dog was being cared for. It was clear that my dog was happy, relaxed, and getting plenty of attention. I really appreciated the level of care and communication throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Carla and Jim again and would definitely recommend them to other dog owners looking for someone trustworthy and kind to look after their pet! Thank you!”
“Excellent sitter, accepted last minute booking and an early morning start on a weekend. Enzo had lots of cuddles and wouldn’t leave Ella’s side which means he took to her really well :) would definitely recommend Thank you so much :)”
About: Myself and my husband are experienced dog owners, and have been around dogs our whole lives. We are happy to consider any dog breed and can handle large or small dogs. We had an Alaskan Malamute weighing 48kgs in her prime, sadly we lost her in August at 14 years old, so no trouble handling big and stubborn breeds! We do have a 14 year old cockerpoo called Alfie who is very tolerant and misses his companion - therefore dogs coming to us must be okay with other dogs. He is neutered. We have a loving family home with husband and wife team and grown up children who are always happy to play with dogs walk, entertain, exercise etc (children are 16, 19, 22 and are dog lovers like us!) We have a large enclosed garden for dogs to roam around in and are a cat free home. Boarding and doggy day care welcome, we often go to the seaside too, so if you pooch likes the beach they'd be welcome to come with us if they can travel in the car okay. Happy to answer any questions, or set up a meet and greet with your furbaby. I work part time 3 days a week and my husband works from home full time, so there is always someone around to keep you dog company and give them the love and care they need. Evenings and weekends we have 3 grown up children that are dog lovers like us, and are more than happy to help keep your dog entertained (children are 22, 19, 16 so not little kids). We have a large secure fenced garden for dogs to roam around in as they please. There is always someone at home. We have a 14 year old cockerpoo who misses his companion who we lost this year. He is a gentlemen. Happy to crate if needed, though we do not have a crate at the moment so this will need to be provided.
“We are so lucky we found Ayesha! From the minute Cosmo met her he gravitated to her and absolutely loves her pup too. We tried a play date today and it is clear that Cosmo is very happy there. We’ve already booked him in for a longer staycation. Thanks for looking after Cosmo so well”
About: I’ve taken care of my perfect little French bulldog for the past 6 years. I have a lot of experience looking after family pets and friends pets going back 15 years!

“I'm very happy with service and the way Eszter looks after my dogs . Very friendly and professional. I will definitely use her service again in my needs ❤️. As it was my first time to leave dogs with someone else, I was worried and a bit stressed about it and when I received texts and videos from a dog carrier on that day , it makes me feel calm and happy knowing that they are in good hands. 👍 thank you so much Eszter B xxx”
“Many thanks Tom and your lovely family, for taking good care of Daisy yesterday. Our labradoodle is 11 now and it’s the 1st occasion we have left her with Tom. He sent through some lovely photos of Daisy with the children, which was very reassuring and gave us the confidence to know that she had settled in and will be fine when we leave her again. Hopefully next time the weather will be less soggy for your walks !”
“Honestly, I couldn't be happier with the service Scott and Frasier provided. The videos of Penelope throughout the day showed the biggest smile on her face as she played in a safe and controlled environment. Scott was so good at communicating and knew all about different breeds behaviors and needs. Would happily recommend!”
About: I’ve always adored dogs and had multiple in my childhood. I currently have one dog, Toby. He’s a very cheeky Yorkie who loves playing ball and needs attention. My dream is to quit my full time corporate job and open up a doggy daycare. Most of my family and friends have dogs and we love socialising together and looking after eachothers dogs when needed. I want to help you to take away the pressure and make sure your furry companion is well looked after. Every dog needs that little bit of extra care which is so important for their well being. So whether it’s a walk, a belly rub or a fetch play session I’m here. As I work from home I have full flexibility to assist your needs and make sure that your companion can have adequate toilet breaks and a friend whilst you’re not there. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out!☺️ I work from home, so pet care is super easy as I don’t have commute commitments. Having a dog myself I always make sure to have time for multiple daily walks and playtime. I have a 5ft fenced garden with enough space to play and go out for a wee if needed. We have multiple nice walking paths around the area to excercise the dogs and frequently go to country parks for longer adventures.
About: Compassionate & Experienced Pet Sitter As a former dog and cat owner, I deeply understand the unique companionship and unconditional love that pets bring into our lives. It's that special bond I miss most, which is why I've joined Rover—to continue caring for animals and to share that mutual affection once again. I have extensive experience keeping pets safe and secure, and I'm dedicated to providing your furry family members with the same level of care and attention I gave my own. I can’t wait to meet your pets and build a trusting relationship with them. I am now also qualified in Animal Care and Pet First Aid & CPR Training at Level 3. I currently work part-time from home, so I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your fur babies. I am available weekdays, weekends evenings, and holiday cover at my home or if you prefer at yours. I am committed to providing your dog with a safe, loving, and stress-free stay. My home features a fully enclosed and secure garden, so your dog can play freely and safely between walks. I prioritise building trust with every pet, using a calm and patient approach. You will receive regular updates, including photos, to show you how happy your dog is in my care. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your best friend is in a safe and happy environment.
“My dog settled in well at Victoria's and got on very well with her dog Caesar. Victoria and her partner also took Simba out to the pub which was nice as he loves going to the pub. Victoria also updated me with many pictures all throughout the day and messages which was very nice. Simba had a fun day and I will most definitely be using Victoria again for future dog sitting 😊”

“Great care taken of our two girls, Hettie and Elsie, again. Felt very confident leaving them with Amy. Great communication and we will definitely rebook another time.”
About: I’ve struggled myself to find the right home to look after my precious boys. I offer a home from home setting where your dog(s) will receive lots of cuddles and lots of playtime. We have two male cockapoos, one of which is of senior age. We have previously had Great Danes (gorgeous breed) and have grown up round a variety of breeds. We have two children age 10 and 13 who have grown up around animals and absolutely love dogs and if your dog wants to run around with smaller humans they’re all for it. I work from home part time so I’m available for cuddles on the sofa and they can play freely with open access to the enclosed garden. We will accommodate so that everything is familiar to what they are used to for example sleeping in the kitchen, sleeping in a bedroom, being on furniture and so forth. We have a Vets locally who our dogs are registered with and plenty of green areas for dogs to have good walks. Any questions please feel free to ask. I know they are your babies and we will take great care of them. I work from home part time and I’m kept company by my two cockerpoos; one who is old and quite happily chills and the other who is seven and can always be encouraged to play. We have a secure enclosed garden where they will have access to play freely. We have lots of walks and greenery close by so they don’t have to do the same route all the time and can adapt the walks we take to your dogs needs.

“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.”
“We met Irina today as the meet and greet prior to her boarding our dog, and we left feeling confident and reassured that he will be in good hands. She clearly knows dogs and how to manage their 'quirks'..! Most of all she came across as caring and kind.”

I take the time to understand the pet’s specific needs, such as dietary requirements, exercise routines, medical needs, and behavioral preferences. I ensure they are always in a secure environment, whether indoors or outdoors, and I remain attentive to any changes in behavior or health that may require attention.

I'll also send regular updates and photos, so you have peace of mind knowing they're happy and well cared for. Whether you need a reliable dog walker or someone you can trust to care for your pet at home as a one off, I'd love to help. Feel free to message me with any questions or to arrange a meet and greet! I offer reduced rates for elderly persons needing assistance with their animals, so please message me. I work a couple of hours weekday evenings so I am available all day, in home sitting suitable for dogs and cats who can be left 3 hours weekday (Monday to Thursday) evenings. I can usually accommodate last minute requests, I understand if you’ve been let down by a sitter and need help last minute :) I have been in-home house sitting for years. I offer a calm and attentive environment to keep your fur baby feeling comfortable and relaxed.
About: Hi I'm Martha! I am a genuine dog and cat lover who enjoys the company of animals, whilst not being able to own one of my own just yet. I am available for dog walking, drop in visits, or pet sitting at your home.🏠 Please message me for any questions and I will respond as soon as possible. Please let me know if there is anything you would like me to be aware of, any interests, behaviours, anxieties and what your pet loves to do. I am more than happy to do a meet and greet before booking, so please do reach out :) I work from home the majority of the time, so will always be around for cuddles! :) I can be flexible with bookings, but every week is different with my work schedule, so please let me know what you're looking for, and I will aim to accommodate all requests. To put your mind at ease, I have no children or other pets, so your pet is my priority when they are in my care!
“Loki was very happy with his first walk with Ellie. The pouring rain did not stop Ellie positivity and enthusiasm. We also got a beautiful picture of his walk. Thank you and we will book again.”
About: I have looked after dogs since I was a child with my family and we often house sit for friends and extended family. I was relied on to walk, feed, bathe, play and take care of their dogs while away. I mostly work from home and am readily available, so I am free to look after your dog anytime and day and ensure that they are well taken care of. I have a large fenced garden with ample space to play and mainly work from home so am available all day to tender to your dogs needs of doing their business, country walks in the fields and of course play time! I currently work from home so am available all day to look after your pup/s, let them play inside/ outside or even a quick lunchtime walk. I live in a family environment so there will be a few of us to keep your dog company throughout his/ her stay. That being said, I will be the primary carer.
About: I've had pets for about 15 years. I've had rabbits, guinea pigs and family dogs. Ive looked after family and firends dogs when they have gone on holiday and I have looked after neighbours pets when they have been away. We have a lovely cavalier king charles spaniel. He is very friendly with other dogs, very energetic and playful. I feel like I'm good at helping train puppies as the dogs I have had, have learnt really well with command's. Me and my partner bith work hybrid jobs so we will always have plenty of time to give to your dog, as one of us will always be hime. I Will normally take short notice bookings as I understand things can be planned last minute. We have a kitchen/diner that has patio doors straight onto the garden. The garden is all enclosed. Every dog I have looked after, runs around with Bailey playing in the garden. We love going on long walks and walking around the lakes. If they get mucky then I'll be happy to give them them a quick bath or just wash their paws.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life, i have grown up with them from a young girl and enjoyed every aspect of what they bring to life. The playing, walks, even conversation’s. Any dog I look after I build a friendship with. I am familiar with training techniques and tools but ideally aim for a dog to have the best time. I have a home where I can offer your pet a good sized garden with plenty of toys, a home where they are free to roam and treat it like their own. I currently work from home so I have time to look after my own Labrador and would to help people look after there’s too. I understand all to well how difficult it can be to balance work, life, pets, children etc. even if you just fancy a day out with you’re dog being looked after. I walk my labrador 3 times a day and we take many different scenic walks, or sometimes a play in the garden and a run. I have a good sized garden, which backs on to fields and surrounding by walls. I am in a quiet location where you can be assured they will be relaxed. I am able to crate/seperate some dogs if necessary. I can also travel to the owners home for drop ins, walks, plays or just some company
“Last minute booking as I needed someone to walk my cocker spaniel during the day today and found Dave yesterday. Was happy to give Freddie an hour walk with no hassle. He let me know Freddie had an excited pee when he got there and had cleaned it up for me. I couldn't ask for a better dog walker!! Highly recommended!”
“Danielle looked after sungi yesterday. Sungi had an amazing time and really enjoyed her adventure. I get very worried being apart from Sungi but Danielle was incredibly reassuring, and reliable. It was such a relief to know sungi was safe and happy. Lovely to see the photos of their adventures too.”

“We met Linda prior to Noodles stay, such a lovely lady. Noodles had a great time. Linda kept us updated with pics and messages at least once every day. Noodles is on medication twice daily and Linda was happy to administer his tablets. I can't recommend Linda highly enough we will certainly be letting Noodles stay with Linda again xx”
“It was my first time using Eszter and she was brilliant. She came round to my house to meet the dogs beforehand. My dogs are rescue and unfortunately were unsettled during the night (absolutely no fault of Eszter) but she reassured me that this can happen occasionally. I was sent lots of photos during their stay and I felt they were very well looked after. Would definitely recommend this lady”
“Carment and her family looked after my German Short Haired Pointers over the bank holiday weekend. They were very welcoming when I dropped Otto and Henry off and I left feeling happy and confident that they would be well looked after. Their house is lovely with planty of space for the dogs and a great garden. Carmen snet me losts of videos and photos over the weekend showing Otto and Henry having a great time in the garden and on walks. I could tell when I picked them up theat they'd been well looked after and had got on well with the other dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend Carmen to anyone looking for a great home for their dogs to stay. Thank you Carmen. We''ll be back!”
“Mandy was amazing and I would have no hesitation in recommending. The only challenge was the dogs didn’t appear to be as excited as they normally are when I return which speaks volumes! I also really appreciated the regular updates, photos and videos.”
“Jo and Ian were the perfect sitters for our Millie. They keep us updated throughout her stay re how she was getting on and sent photos so we could see how relaxed and happy she was, as well as being perfectly spoilt throughout her stay. We would definitely use them again.”
“Peanut had a lovely week with Kayleigh and her family, she loved playing with Bailey there dog, I was updated with how she was doing through the week and would definitely use Kayleigh again in the future.”
“Irina was amazing with my dog ozzy! she was very patient as he is very nervous with new people but she is a natural and I’m very happy to know he will be looked after while I go away 😁”
“We really highly recommend Kane. First time for our 3 year old Whippet to be away from us and all the worry was for nothing. She was there with my older dog and was home from home for them. Great up dates and pictures. Both dogs well cared for and happy. Thank you so much and will definitely use again”
“Billie has been my saving grace! Available last minute rescuing me from failed booking and most importantly caring for Freddie like it’s her own dog. I’m incredibly grateful to Billie and Kane and highly recommend her services!”
About: I have just said farewell to my 15 year old Springer Spaniel and whilst I am not yet ready for a new companion I would love to look after your dog whilst you're on holiday. I recently retired and so available to take care of your dog all day, every day. I am used to walking 5+ miles a day and your pet will get at least 3 walks per day (if required/heat permits) and will be rarely left alone (if Sitting/boarding/day care). I have a fenced garden at the bottom of a quiet cul de sac, and live nearby a large orchard for safe (on lead) walks. Crate and dog bed available and covers on furniture if cuddles are required. 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 have experience caring for dogs since I was about 15 years old. I often helped my grandmother and close family friends with their dogs — walking them, feeding them and looking after them when they were busy or away. Through this experience I learned how to be patient, attentive and responsible with dogs of different personalities. I enjoy spending time with them, going on walks, playing and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I work night shifts from Sunday night until Wednesday morning. On the other days, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time for pet care. I am available for walks, visits, or overnight stays on most days, and I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. I provide a clean, safe, and comfortable space for pets, whether at my home or theirs. I follow all instructions carefully and always supervise pets to keep them happy and secure. Owners get updates so they can relax while I care for their furry friends.
“My Golden Retriever puppy had a wonderful stay with Jess and was very happy and serene when I picked him up. Jess sent me regular updates and took my puppy on lots of walks. I'm looking forward to organising another sitting.”
“Ella has helped us a couple of times now and very last minute too. We can’t thank her enough for being so flexible and helpful. My dog isn’t great another other dogs so Ella even arranges for her dog to stay elsewhere. Would highly recommend Ella to anyone and trust her to look after my dogs knowing they’re in safe hands.”
“Eleni, is just a dream. From initial contact she was proactive with her responses, accommodating and very welcoming. Frieda is a very shy dog with strangers, but within seconds, she was wagging her tail, trying to get kisses and cuddles. She settled into the house very quickly. I do believe this was due to the warm and kind aura Eleni gives. Freida had a very nice time over her weekend stay. With lots of reassurance for me with photo and video updates, kept my mind at rest. When it was time for Freida to come home, she didn't want to leave an ran upstairs to hide lol....that's how much she enjoyed her stay. We will definitely be using Eleni again, and i highly recommend her. Thank you Eleni, i will message you shortly to discuss future stays. Thank you Charlie & Freida xxx”
“Hilly looked after my boy so well. I felt so at ease while he was in her care with her two beautiful dogs also. She sent me pics daily and my boy left happy and will defo re book :)”
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.
