House Sitting in East Renfrewshire

“Bridget really helped us out at short notice when we were visiting Glasgow. Our dogs took to her immediately and we felt after meeting her that we were leaving them in good hands. Her communication was excellent and it was lovely to get some pics of updates during her stay. Bridget was very flexible to meet our needs and would highly recommend.”

About: Hi! My name is Koko. I have lived with dogs since I was born and have kept pets throughout my life, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am. Over the years, I have cared for many types of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, rodents, amphibians, and reptiles. This experience has helped me understand different animal personalities and how to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I have experience with many dog breeds and sizes, from small dogs such as Chihuahuas and Pomeranians to larger breeds including Mastiffs and Pit Bulls. I also have experience caring for puppies and anxious pets. Every dog is unique, and I always respect their routines, personalities, and individual needs. Taking care of dogs brings me happiness and peace, which is one of the main reasons I enjoy being a dog sitter. I provide care with love, patience, and responsibility, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. My whole family loves animals, and we provide a calm and welcoming environment for every pet. When your pet is with me, they will be treated like part of the family. I will care for your fur baby as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away. As a new sitter, I am offering slightly lower prices while building my reviews. I mostly work from home, which allows me to spend most of my time at home and provide consistent attention and supervision for pets in my care. This flexible schedule means I can easily incorporate walks, feeding times, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I am also generally flexible with check-in and check-out times, helping to accommodate owners’ travel plans while ensuring pets remain comfortable and well cared for. 🐾 Your dog will stay in a safe, calm, and welcoming home environment. We have a secure fenced garden, allowing dogs to enjoy fresh air, supervised outdoor time, and safe play. The home is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly, providing a relaxing space where dogs can feel at ease. Animals have always been part of our household, and my whole family loves animals, so every pet is welcomed with kindness and care. I make sure each dog receives attention, affection, and a comfortable place to rest. I also understand that every dog has different habits and routines, so I do my best to maintain their normal schedule, including feeding times, walks, and rest periods. My goal is to help your dog feel secure, relaxed, and at home while you are away. 🐾

“Fantastic, would highly recommend. Sidney dog sat our 8 month old in our home for an overnighter. Lots of photos and updates, Monty clearly had a ball. We’ll definitely be asking Sidney for help again! 🥰”

“Ian has a really lovely natural way with dogs. Loki took to him instantly. I felt reassured that Loki was being well looked after whilst I attended my mum's funeral. He followed instructions. I will certainly book him again. Thank you”

“Ellie took great care of Haru my 4 months old German Shepherd while I was on a whole day business event. Haru had a lovely day with her. This was the first time Ellie looked after my boy, but I’m sure not the last🥰. Thank you Ellie☺️.”

About: Hi i’m Cara and i have been around animals all my life. I have worked with a range of animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, reptiles and much more! I have a HNC Animal care qualification and just finished my first year in the veterinary nursing degree course. I love working with all animals and have 3 dogs of my own ranging from 3-11 years old.

I have a lot of free time now that i am not studying at the moment and my schedule is very flexible. I am able to drive so i can pick up and drop off your dogs when suitable and take them various places for walks. I am able to keep the dogs on the lead or let them off if they have good recall aswell as doing single walks or group walks!(whatever your dog prefers). I have qualifications in animal behaviour and welfare so i have learnt loads on how to read dogs body language and adapting to their needs. I have experience with young dogs and senior dogs. I have also worked with nervous and anxious dogs in the past and know how to act accordingly. I also have experience working in a kennels and with rescue dogs which taught me a lot about each individuals dog needs and their personality’s!

“Libby-Jade looked after Kayla for three days and gave her really wonderful care and attention! I am so glad to have found Libby-Jade on Rover and am looking forward to booking again. :)”

“We had such a lovely experience with Saskia. Her communication was excellent prior to our dog’s sitting service. She was super friendly and easily available to chat and meet up. It was very clear that she has a deep care and love for animals so I felt so comfortable leaving Xena with her. She took a good care of our dog and spoiled her with treats. Also the house was immaculate on our return. I would highly recommend Saskia and will definitely be a returning customer in the future.”

“Mark looked after our 2 Labradors in our home when we were on holiday for 5 days. We arranged a visit in advance and Mark was very comfortable around them even when 1 dog was a little nervous and barky. We received regular updates and pics from Mark and the dogs were very spoiled. Mark was very respectful of our home and we came home to a very tidy house. Would 100% recommend Mark to take care of the fur babies, we saw on an outdoor camera their disappointment when he left!”

“Erin is ABSOLUTELY amazing! I would HIGHLY recommend for any of your fur babies. Erin sent me regular text messages and pictures throughout my time away and always kept me updated. Sequoia absolutely adored her time with Erin and was given the BEST care. Sequoia is a 4 month old puppy and Erin was even so kind as to keep up with her training routine while I was away - I came back to my perfectly behaved puppy with absolutely no training regression! Highly, highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with lots of cats and dogs throughout my life. Ranging from rescue animals to crufts contestants and a range of dog sizes. My parents come from a dog training background so I have knowledge that aids with puppy training. I’m a Musical theatre performer but when I I’m in between acting jobs, I live in Glasgow and work in restaurant in the west end. This means that I can be pretty flexible with your needs and your pets! I currently won’t be able to house your pets but hoping my circumstances will change in the future as I’d love to add that to my service.

About: Hey! My name is Jay and I have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember. I am reliable, caring and committed to keeping your furry friend fit, happy and loved through personalised care tailored to your pet’s needs. I have experience walking dogs since the age of 11, I’ve also had plenty of experience caring for other pets including small animals, cats, and dogs. I am fully insured and pet first aid trained. I have also researched and educated myself on pet behaviour and how to provide safe, confident care for all animals. I have finished school and taking a gap year so have plenty of free time to fit around your schedule! I can do early mornings from 7:30am onwards to late nights and overnight care. I have a front and back garden which are fenced and live right next to a big grassy field which is great for a run around with dogs. I have an open space for dog to roam freely indoor. I am happy to stay at the pet owners home or bring the pet over to my place, whatever works best.

“Norris loved Hannah. She was prompt, communicative and took the time to come and meet him in advance of the sit. He is anxious at first and she was sure to reassure him before his walk. He was very calm and happy when I returned. We will definitely use Hannah again.”

About: I have over 17 years of hands-on experience caring for my own beloved dog, Millie aka Mildred, she recently passed in 2024 at the ripe old age of 17.5 and not a day goes by that I don’t think of her. She had the best life. I’ve developed a deep understanding of what pets need to feel safe, happy, and loved. Over the years, friends and family have also trusted me to care for their dogs adding to my pee care experience; whether it’s for a weekend getaway or extended travel—because they know I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and can easily adapt to their routines, dietary needs, and personality quirks. From long walks and playtime to quiet companionship and medication schedules, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care every time. I work from home and have done for a very long time. This suited my own dog very well also she loved me at home before she passed away. This means I can be flexible for their toilet needs. Lunchtime walks in the park and can chill out with me while I work. I live very close to local parks, I also have a back garden that is fenced for toilet breaks. In order to reach the back garden any dog will be on the leash till they are safely in the garden and then can do their business at their leisure. My flat is cosy and comfy and lots of comfy places for them to relax in.

“Heather was great - friendly, on time, communicative and my dog was so happy to hang out with her. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have experience dog walking and pet sitting for a neighbour, including weekly 45-minute walks and in-home care for a puppy Westie. I also volunteer at a doggy daycare where I assist with around eight dogs at a time, supporting play, supervision, and enrichment activities in both indoor and outdoor secure environments. I have hands-on experience with reactive, anxious, and medically sensitive dogs through caring for my own 23kg rescue dog, including managing leash reactivity, arthritis, and dietary needs. This has given me confidence handling strong, excitable dogs and adapting care to each animal’s individual needs. I am calm, reliable, and very attentive to safety and wellbeing, and I have a strong long-term passion for animal care and rehabilitation. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I have a regular commitment every Thursday morning from 9:45am–12:00pm where I walk and care for a neighbour’s dog, so I’m unavailable during this time each week. Outside of that, I’m flexible with bookings depending on the day and notice given. I also live with my mum and we share care of our dog, who has three walks a day. I usually take on one of these walks per day and this is already built into my routine so it doesn’t affect my availability for other pet care bookings. Although I live at home I will be doing this myself and have years of experience walking dogs alone. I also volunteer at a doggy daycare on a weekly basis, which is flexible and arranged around my availability, so I can adjust this when needed. Overall, I’m organised and reliable, and I make sure each pet gets the time and care they need. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I always prioritise safety, routine, and making the pet feel as comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, walking, and any specific care needs, and I make sure doors, gates, and leads are always secure. I’m confident handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments, including reactive or anxious dogs, due to my experience with my own rescue dog and working with dogs in daycare settings. I aim to keep pets calm and happy by sticking to their normal routine as much as possible, giving them attention when they want it and space when they need it. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure the environment is safe, clean, and stress-free while their owner is away.

About: Hello! I’m Finn, I have been looking after dogs for friends and family as long as I can remember, anytime I hear of someone in need of pet care I am always first to volunteer! I am confident looking after all kinds of dogs (including puppies) and love to go for long walks in the park. I work an office job (Monday-Friday) that is pretty flexible so able to pop out for a dog walk whenever or work from your home if you need a sitter. Happy to provide regular updates and keep you in the loop with how everything is going. I work shifts so I am free a couple of days out of the week for day care. And for walks most evenings and occasionally during the day. I am not able to have a pet in my flat but I would be very careful when in your home, making sure your pet is well looked after and your home stays exactly how it was left.

About: Growing up I was surrounded by all sorts of pets from dogs, cats, hamsters, and Guinea pigs, I’ve always been an animal lover. When I moved to London many years ago, I began looking after friends and neighbours dogs, cats and rabbits as I didn’t get to see my family pets often since I’ve moved away so I enjoyed helping out and looking after other peoples on Rover. I work in the television production industry, and my schedule can be very flexible with enough notice. I work Monday to Fridays, so available weekends and week nights. My office is animal friendly so that is always an option. I am reliable, trustworthy, well- organised, caring and I have a lot of experience on Rover. I have looked after a wide range of dogs and cats and have never had any issues. I always keep in touch with pet owners, and updates and will make sure I know the ins and outs of the care required before the booking begins.

“Kirsty was a wonderful sitter. Very communicative before and during the sit. Our cats and house were very well taken care of. Would absolutely recommend to other cat owners ”
