She was kind, considerate, and incredibly gentle, and it was clear from the start that our dog was in very safe hands. We especially loved the regular photos and updates Nina sent while we were away- it was so reassuring to see how happy and settled our dog was. Nina took her out to some lovely places, kept her active and busy, and clearly gave her lots of attention and affection. We would absolutely recommend Nina to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. We will definitely be re-booking the next time we go away!”

“I was looking for an alternative to kennels for my 19 month old French bulldog x and came across rover. I carefully looked through all the potential pet sitters (after putting in all my requirements) and came across Mat, he was really friendly and answered any questions I had, we had a meet and greet which went very well (my dog was welcomed with open arms the minute we got there) and even though I was nervous, as this was my dogs first stay away with strangers, I really didn’t need to be. Mat and his family took very good care of my dog, over the four night stay he was there, and sent me pictures every day of him to keep my mind at peace. When I went to pick to my dog up he was very happy and chilled out and dare I say didn’t want to leave. I would highly recommend Mat and his family to look after your furry friend and I will definitely be rebooking with Mat in the future.”
“Jasmine is amazing. Perry loves his stays and he gets the best care. I can leave him with absolutely no worries and Jasmine always sends photos and updates. A very big thank you.”

Photo and video updates all day long. Which were very much appreciated. Andy, Christina's husband was great with Cookie too. They have a love for animals that shines through. I would recommend them to anyone. I will definitely be asking them to look after Cookie again with out hesitation. Thank you so much from me and Cookie. ❤️🐶👍😁”

About: I have lots of experience with animals - dogs in particular because I have had dogs my whole life. I also took my dog to behaviour/obedience dog training and agility training. I feel I have a strong connection with animals and can handle all types of characters and personalities. I have experience handling nervous dogs and reactive dogs and elderly dogs. I have never owned cats but my family members have lots of cats so I have experience with being around them and looking after them. I am currently a fully time university student looking to build up a bit of money alongside my studies by doing something I absolutely love which is looking after animals. Since being away from home I have found a huge gap in my life because I don’t have my dogs with me - this will allow me to be able to look after animals while I am away from home which is something I love doing. My days weekly vary and times I’m available based on my lectures but if you ping me a message I am sure we can sort something out - I am a very reliable person. I will always make sure the animal has its needs met and will follow the instructions left by the owner to ensure optimal care for the pet and peace of mind for the owner. I know how important your pets are as I have 2 dogs of my own at home and used to have a rabbit and hamsters. I absolutely love and adore all animals.
About: I've had cats since I was born, at one point having 5 at once! So I know they have their quirks and character traits! When I'm away, I want to know that my cat is being loved and given the time and space to trust his new carer, as well as plenty of cuddles and playtime, so that is what I would provide for your beloved cat!
“Hannah took on our challenging pets and managed them well. We have a blind Bengal and a very wild Savannah cat. She gave lots of updates and I was able to enjoy a night away without worry.”
“Lucy has done such a lovely job looking after our senior cat again - he loves her and we’ve come home to a very happy and relaxed cat! The updates were brilliant and we’d recommend her 100%. Thank you Lucy!”
About: I’ve recently moved out of my family home, where we had seven cats, so it’s safe to say everyone knows me as the crazy cat lady! I’ve grown up caring for all sorts of personalities and breeds, from playful Ragdolls and Maine Coons to rescue cats and tabbies, looking after them from tiny kittens right through to their senior years. I know every cat is different, whether they want endless fuss or prefer their own space, and I’m happy to go at their pace. Even on walks I can’t resist stopping to say hello to any friendly cat I meet! I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, loved and well cared for while you’re away, with plenty of updates to give you peace of mind.
About: I have rescued and cared for two cats, giving me hands-on experience with different personalities, routines, and care requirements. I have also worked at Redwings Horse Sanctuary, supporting the care of horses and running wellbeing activities that connected people with horses. Alongside my animal experience, I run my own small business offering therapeutic forest school work with children and nature connection experiences. This has developed my skills in patience, responsibility, observation, and creating safe, supportive environments for both people and animals. I hold an Enhanced DBS check and I am experienced in working responsibly with both children and animals. I am comfortable providing care such as: • Feeding and maintaining routines • Administering medication where required • Caring for animals with different needs and temperaments • Providing companionship, attention, and reassurance • Looking after animals in a calm, respectful way • Drop in pet sitting, or longer stay-in house and pet sitting if required I understand that pets are part of the family and aim to provide reliable, compassionate care that gives owners peace of mind while they are away.
About: Me and my partner work from home full time and would love the company of a four-legged friend. I only ever take in one dog at a time, this means your dog gets 100% of my attention, the best spot on the sofa, and a routine that doesn't change just because they aren't at home. I keep my client list small and exclusive to ensure I can be available when you need it most. My home is a calm and quiet space, I have no dogs or kids of my own and live it a very quite estate on the edge of norwich. Whether we’re heading out for a long afternoon walk or just hanging out while I’m at my desk, your dog will be treated exactly like my own. They’ll have the run of the house and plenty of belly rubs. I have a completely fenced garden which they have access to as much as needed. I have a very cosy office with a sofa they have exclusive use of.
“Thomas, provided drop in visits for our cockerpoos whilst my husband was working. He offered quick response times and provided photo updates. I would definitely recommend him and use him again.”
About: Level 3 canine carer. I am DBS checked. Have lived with staffies for 20 years. Worked in multiple dog care jobs and rescue centres. Absolutely nothing I love more. I currently work zero hour so I am very flexible with what hours I do. We can figure out whatever time is suitable for the three of us☺️ To start I will do a drop in session with you and your pet to have a chat and find out a bit more about their characteristics from you and places they love to walk! I completely understand how nerve wracking it can be leaving your pet in someone else’s care, as a dog owner myself I only want the best for my dog which is why I think it is best to meet and greet first before doing any solo walking or sitting!
About: I have had pet dogs and cats since the age of 10 and have also spent lots of time caring for friends and family pets. For 15 years I ran a smallholding with goats, pigs, sheep and various types of poultry and also farm sat on a regular basis at a 100 head goat farm. Experienced in milking and kidding. I love all types of animals, love spending time with them and treat them all as if they were my own. I'm happy to house sit and care for your animals throughout the UK and Europe. I am currently working part time but this is very flexible and from January 2026 I'll be available for full time pet sitting. I can't wait. I will look after your pets and your house as if they were my own. I am very reliable and trustworthy and have a DBS check.
“Paula was so very kind and caring towards our cat and helped very much even when he was unwell. She kept in touch and sent pictures and videos of him. We were so grateful to have her here with him for peace of mind. She even cleaned the house before leaving which was so thoughtful. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets from a very young age, giving me years of hands-on experience with animals of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, basic training, and lots of love and attention, I understand how important routine, safety, and trust are for pets and their owners. I’m confident handling energetic puppies, gentle seniors, and everything in between, always making sure each dog feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while in my care. I carefully balance pet care alongside my work and college schedule by offering set, reliable time slots that fit naturally into my daily routine, such as mornings, afternoons, and evenings. This allows me to provide consistent walks and check-ins without overbooking or rushing visits. I always communicate my availability clearly, so owners know exactly when to expect me, and I make sure every pet gets my full attention, care, and time. Being organised helps me give dependable, loving care while maintaining a busy but well-managed schedule. When caring for pets in their own homes and on walks, I always follow each owner’s specific instructions to keep routines familiar and stress-free for their pets. I make sure pets are fed on time, given fresh water, plenty of attention, and any basic care they need, such as cleaning bowls or refreshing litter areas. On walks, I focus on safety, positive handling, and fun exercise while keeping dogs secure on leads and away from hazards. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

“Laura was very friendly and looked after my dogs for a day. She sent me updates on how they were settling in. The dogs were happy and tired afterwards! I would definitely recommend Laura and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Thank you Laura x”
“Absolutely perfect. It was my first time using Rover. I was so undecided whether to bring Odin for our weekend away as he gets a bit fed up being dragged around on lead but didn’t want to leave him in kennels. I felt doggy daycare for a couple of afternoons would be the best of both worlds. Maxine & hubby was so lovely, booked us in at short notice, responded to messages super quick and we felt 100% comfortable leaving him. Without a doubt if we come down this way again we would love Maxine to look after him. Thank you for being so wonderful!”
About: We had our own beautiful border collie for 8 years, who has sadly passed. We have also looked after dogs for friends and love getting out walking with them. We have the beach, woods, parks and fields on our doorstep. We would love to give your dog a comfortable stress free home whilst you are away. We would prefer to meet them first to decide if we, you and your dog would be happy for us to care for them. My husband and I are both retired. We have no other commitments so your dog would be our priority. There would always be someone here, so the dog would never be alone. We have a small fenced back garden and spacious living room area. We also have a crate if thats what your dog is used you.
About: I provide attentive, personalized care that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I take the time to learn each dog or cat’s routine, personality, and needs so they receive care that feels familiar and stress-free. Whether it’s keeping up with puppy training, administering medications, caring for senior pets, or giving extra patience to shy animals, I treat every pet like family. I also keep owners updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pets are in caring, dependable hands. I am currently working flexible hours during the week so I am able to suit around your animals needs and availability is totally free on weekends. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment. I make sure each pet has a designated space for rest, access to fresh water, and meals provided on their regular schedule. I maintain a clean and pet-friendly space, free of hazards, where they can feel secure and relaxed. I provide plenty of playtime, walks and enrichment activities to keep them happy and stimulated. If a pet has special dietary needs or requires medication, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I also ensure that pets receive lots of affection and attention, so they feel right at home while in my care. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their familiar routine and environment to minimize stress. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have access to clean water, and are given proper exercise through walks and playtime. I also follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including administering medications, maintaining grooming routines, or using specific training cues. In addition to caring for the pet, I respect the owner’s home by keeping it clean and secure. I make sure the pet’s living areas are tidy, and I provide updates to the owner so they feel reassured that their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Plato enjoyed a lovely day with Sarah! He was very excited to see her when we arrived which was a great sign that he felt comfortable on his last visit. Great photos of him enjoying the garden and relaxing in her kitchen. Very happy to have found Sarah to look after him.”
“Simi has been visiting Charlotte on a fairly regular basis for a few months, but had her first ‘sleep over’ a few days ago. I dropped off a very relaxed, happy dog, and collected an even happier one. Charlotte has such a lovely way with dogs, Simi even left with a card telling us about her adventures ….. a lovely touch! Thank you Charlotte for looking after and loving our girl so well!”
“Pinar took such good care of our miniature dachshund bramble. She gave us lots of updates throughout, photos and videos. We felt like Pintar and her family looked after Bramble as if she was their own dog. Would definitely recommend her to anyone”
“Bounty was looked after so well, great communication and photo updates throughout her stay. She seemed very comfortable when we collected her and clearly had enjoyed herself. Knowing Bounty was happy and being well looked after enabled us to enjoy our family day out at BeWILDerwood. Thank you Christina. Would definitely trust to look after Bounty again.”
About: I understand how important it is to find someone reliable, trustworthy, and loving to look after your beloved companions. Whether it's feeding, walking, grooming, or simply providing cuddles and companionship, I'm here to ensure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved in your absence. I have personally owned cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and fish, and I also have strong experience caring for dogs. I regularly volunteer at the Norfolk and Suffolk Animal Trust, where I walk and help care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. In addition, outside of Rover I have dog sat for friends and family, both in my own home and in theirs. Whether I am providing care while an owner is on holiday, at work, or simply in need of extra support, I am always committed to delivering attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. I also help with regular dog walks, taking my in-laws’ Labrador and French Bulldog out each week. My services are tailored to suit your pet's unique personality and requirements. I take pride in maintaining open communication with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos to offer peace of mind while you're away. Rest assured, your precious pets will be in capable and caring hands with me! I work from home, which makes it easy to help care for your furry friend. I can help out with dog walks in the mornings, in my lunch breaks (which are flexible) and in the evenings / across the weekend. I don’t have pets or children so your pet(s) can feel safe and happy in my home. We have a courtyard type garden, which your dog is able to make use of, but being within close walking distance to the beach / parks allows a lovely alternative for your pet.
About: Hi, I'm August, a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I’ve had dogs since I was 12 and welcomed my own pup into my life two years ago. Since then, I’ve been committed to learning more about training and behavior by taking classes, which has deepened my understanding of dogs' needs. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve had the pleasure of watching other people's dogs in both my home and theirs. I’m reliable, organized, and always punctual, ensuring your dog gets the attention, love, and care they deserve. I’m an active person who loves spending time outdoors, so whether your dog needs a brisk walk, playtime at the park, or just a little extra company, I’m happy to be there for them. Let’s make sure your dog feels right at home, even when you're away! Pet care easily fits into my daily routine as I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility. I’m able to accommodate different schedules for pickup, drop-off, and walks throughout the day. This allows me to spend quality time with your pet, ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and care they need without rushing. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or sticking to feeding and medication schedules, I can adapt to what works best for you and your dog. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being. In my home, I create a welcoming, secure environment where your dog is treated like family, ensuring they stick to their normal routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. When I care for pets in your home, I maintain consistency by following your instructions closely, whether it's feeding schedules, medications, or exercise. I make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, outdoor fun, and companionship, while keeping your home clean and respected throughout the stay.
“Leanna was very friendly and accommodating while organising the house sitting. Raffle took an instant liking to her and her partner. Very communicative during his stay and it looked like he had a wonderful time. Thank you! We’ll be in touch soon I’m sure :)”
“Would thoroughly recommend Colin if you’re looking for dog care. He took the time to meet Finn (and us) prior to sitting and sent an update on the day to let us know Finn had settled well in his home. I’d hope to use him again if he’s available.”
“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.”
“Julie is very friendly and provides a lovely family environment for your dogs. Both Freddie and Rolo came back tired and happy after a day with Julie which is a particular achievement as Rolo has limitless energy!”
“This was our first time using Emma, and her location is very convenient for us. Emma was very personable, calm, and efficient. She clearly enjoyed spending time with Rusty, and we picked up a relaxed, calm dog so much so that Rusty even slept in this morning. I recommend Emma and I’m sure we will be using her services again.”

About: I have always had a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, invertebrates and reptiles, so I am happy and used to being around most critters! I love long walks in the country or by the sea but also like sitting and cuddling my pets for hours, so whatever your pet needs I can accommodate! I'm currently away from work (I was in the NHS doing ultrasound for 13 years) and am studying to begin my own company! Which means I have plenty of free time for walks and cuddles - middle of the day if you're at work or during the week if you're away! As I currently have a dog and cat in my house I don't feel it fair to offer to board pets unless they are OK with other animals (contact me with questions or requests). I am happy to stay at or visit your home and would be respectful of your space. I am of course happy to meet you and your pet ahead of time to ensure they and you feel comfortable with me!

I love all types of animals, love spending time with them and treat them all as if they were my own. I'm happy to house sit and care for your animals throughout the UK and Europe. I am currently working part time but this is very flexible and from January 2026 I'll be available for full time pet sitting. I can't wait. I will look after your pets and your house as if they were my own. I am very reliable and trustworthy and have a DBS check.

“When it comes to sitters Sarah is 5*. He kind and caring nature makes you feel at such ease that your pet is being taken care of! Daily updates with pictures of what they have been up too that day! We will always be asking Sarah to look after our Otis when we require!”
“Nina looked after our dog at her home while we were away on holiday, and we couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. She was kind, considerate, and incredibly gentle, and it was clear from the start that our dog was in very safe hands. We especially loved the regular photos and updates Nina sent while we were away- it was so reassuring to see how happy and settled our dog was. Nina took her out to some lovely places, kept her active and busy, and clearly gave her lots of attention and affection. We would absolutely recommend Nina to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. We will definitely be re-booking the next time we go away!”
“Charlotte was so amazing with my dog, Betty. Really took care to understand her and make sure she was happy and safe. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Charlotte again. Thank you so much Charlotte! X”
“Rocky seemed to be happy on arrival and collecting from Heidi, we got regular updates with photos and texts while away and an update when we collected him on how he had been especially as this was the first time we had left him for 3 nights. We will be using Heidi services again soon and I’m sure Rocky will be excited to see her again xx”
“I was looking for an alternative to kennels for my 19 month old French bulldog x and came across rover. I carefully looked through all the potential pet sitters (after putting in all my requirements) and came across Mat, he was really friendly and answered any questions I had, we had a meet and greet which went very well (my dog was welcomed with open arms the minute we got there) and even though I was nervous, as this was my dogs first stay away with strangers, I really didn’t need to be. Mat and his family took very good care of my dog, over the four night stay he was there, and sent me pictures every day of him to keep my mind at peace. When I went to pick to my dog up he was very happy and chilled out and dare I say didn’t want to leave. I would highly recommend Mat and his family to look after your furry friend and I will definitely be rebooking with Mat in the future.”
“What can I say about Cookies stay. It was fantastic. Christina took such care of Cookie and put my mind at ease as this was the first time that Cookie has ever been left. Photo and video updates all day long. Which were very much appreciated. Andy, Christina's husband was great with Cookie too. They have a love for animals that shines through. I would recommend them to anyone. I will definitely be asking them to look after Cookie again with out hesitation. Thank you so much from me and Cookie. ❤️🐶👍😁”
“Gareth and Marius were lovely and very accommodating. They were very communicative, sending updates and pictures everyday of Cooper’s stay. Cooper was clearly sad to leave. Would 100% book Gareth again.”
“Andrea is great with our dog, Tarly. He is very happy to stay with her and Estelle. We received photos and a video and knew he was having lovely walks in the snow. Andrea also was very accommodating and patient when we had car issues which delayed us. We highly recommend Andrea.”
“Our border terrier Clover had a great time with Lillia. She sent us lots of photos showing Clover relaxed and happy. The family all listened to our explaining Clovers needs and foibles and I would definitely leave Clover with Lillia again. Highly recommended.”

“Sejal was brilliant when looking after Monty on his first boarding experience on Rover. She regularly sent photos of him having the best time on some lovely walks and enjoying her and her family's company. He returned a very happy boy and I wouldn't hesitate to re comment Sejal to others! Thank you so much!”

“Dudley had the best time with Charlotte, he is definitely missing Deezy! Charlotte kept me up to date with how Dudley was and I had no concerns whilst I was away. Highly recommend Charlotte to look after your doggy! 🤩”
About: Lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I've looked after many happy Rover guests with my husband and am now welcoming them through my own profile. Your dog will enjoy a loving home, plenty of attention, and over 2 acres of fully fenced, secure garden to explore and play safely. I work from home, so your dog will rarely be left alone and will always have company throughout the day. I have a large, comfortable home with air conditioning for hot summer days, plus over 2 acres of fully fenced, secure garden where dogs can safely run, play, explore, or simply relax. I tailor the day to each dog's energy level and routine, making sure they feel safe, happy, and at home. Your dog's safety, comfort, and routine are our top priorities. I have a friendly 9-year-old Labrador who loves the company of other dogs and gets on well with canine visitors. I follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medication if required. I'm also happy to accommodate their preferred sleeping arrangements—whether that's in our bedroom, their own bed, another room, or a crate—so they feel as relaxed and at home as possible.
“Our dog had a lovely stay with Julie. We had regular updates and photos. We would definitely recommend Julie and also would be very happy to book a dog-sitting stay with her again.”
“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!”
“Took our Nala on very short notice , met up before the booking to make sure both our dogs got on together , they did and Lulu was a lovely girl, whilst we was away for the weekend i was kept updated on the day and what they had planned sent lots of pictures and dog walks . Would highly reccomend Alberto for looking after your dog . Thank you, we will definitely use again if ever we needed dog boarding.”
“Our dog Rocky stayed with Pinar and her lovely family for a second time whilst we went abroad on holiday for a week. Pinar kept in contact with us regularly and sent photos and videos to reassure us that Rocky was well and happy. I couldn’t recommend Pinar enough and Rocky will be staying with her when we go away next time because we trust her completely. Thank you Pinar ❤️”
“Sylvia and her husband did a fantastic job of looking after my Pointer Hudson and put my mind at rest before leaving him with them for 12 days. Sylvia obviously loves dogs and done everything possible to make sure Hudson was happy and settled during his stay, I received twice daily pictures and updates of them having walks and fun together, Sylvia even contacted me if she was unsure whether Hudson would be happy to do certain activities like go to the small lake area close by. If you are looking for a loving and truly caring person to look after your pet I honestly don’t think you will find anyone better that Sylvia and I shall definitely book her next time I have to go away. 10 stars from us.”
