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.
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. 🐾

“I Would like to thank Cara so much for taking care of Buddy. Along with other health issues Buddy was diagnosed with heart failure a week before I was due to go on holiday, so I was in two minds whether to go. In the end I did go and Cara made my time away so much easier. Buddy was well looked after by Cara and had the best time with Cara, her family and her dogs. Cara kept me updated each day with messages in the morning and bedtime as to how Buddy was, with plenty of photos, videos of their day. This put my mind at rest seeing him having fun with Cara. I would highly recommend Cara to anyone looking for their pet to be well cared for while they are on holiday 💙”


“Izzy was absolutely brilliant! So many wonderful photos and videos of Dillon having a great day hanging out. He's even still tired today from all the play and fuss - would highly recommend to anyone needing dog care in Glasgow!”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and been lucky enough to finally get one 5 years ago. My picture is of me and Freddie, my labradoodle. He lives with his dad 50% of the time so I am free to take care of your dog during this time. I have full public liability insurance and am happy to come to your home. I live on the southside and have a car so can travel. Southside is preferred due to the cost of fuel. I am available for dog sitting, walks and overnights in your home. I’m free to take care of your dog Wednesday- Friday and some Saturdays. I can do overnight, pop ins and walks in your area. I will come to your home to care for your dog. I’m happy to do walks, pop ins or overnights. Let me know if your dog has a preferred walking route.
“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☺️.”

“Angela did a fabulous job looking after our energetic pup Archie whilst we were both away for a week. She gave him all of his favourite things - plenty of walks, treats and attention. We got regular updates which helped us feel reassured. We would definitely book Angela again”


About: Hi I am LJ and have been owned by a cat for the past 30 years-my old boy living to the grand old age of 26 (in human years) and I now share my home with Elvis the Seal Point British Shorthair. I am fully PVG checked as I am a secondary teacher in my other walk of life, and am happy to provide any further documentation upon request. I have been brought up around various pets as my Grandfather bred gun dogs, ferrets and Persians as a child so there is not much that phases me when it comes to furry family members. I am the proud cat mum of a pampered floof with an attitude at the moment, so I would say that I am pretty well versed in dealing with, and winning the trust of, "high tarrif" pets. Most of my own cats had been rescue or rehome cats and I am adept at being patient and getting the best from them.
“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”

About: I've taken care of animals as a pet owner and a sitter for over a decade. I've even worked at London Zoo (sadly in an office, but I did get to hang out with lots of cool animals, my favourite were the armadillos) I work from home, so have plenty of flexibility in where and when I work for house sitting! For pop ins, I can make time early in the mornings (before 8am), at lunch times, and in the evenings. I'm available 7 days a week. I know that pet owners know their pets best and will be led by your routines, following these to keep your pets as happy and as comfortable as they deserve to be.
“Chloe has looked after Bella and Rosa on several occasions, and this was the longest I had left them (4 nights). As always, Chloe keeps me updated and gets in touch if she needs to let me know or ask about something. I came home to 2 well-looked-after and happy wee girls.”

About: Ive had my own family dog and cat for the last 6 years and they get on perfectly, I am reliable with my time management and approachable:) Im currently working part-time working Monday-Saturday but very small hours everyday should I should be able to accommodate most people:) (please feel free to reach out) I have a fenced garden, alot of space for some energetic dogs, I would only take one set of dog/dogs from one specific owner due to different dog temperaments.
“Finlay looked after my wee Albie for a few days while I was away. He was very polite and Albie had a blast, he gave me updates while I was away on what they’d been up to. I’d totally recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter!”


About: I have been around dogs all of my life. I am currently the guardian of two dogs and absolutely love spending as much of my day as possible with them. We take long walks across the glennifer braes, road trips to the beach and strolls ans ball throws in the local parks. We are constantly training- sometimes the boys forget their manners, so we are always practicing!! I have raised Marlo from being a puppy whilst flash is adopted so have experience around dogs of all ages and backgrounds. Our household has four years experience also in Epilepsy management. The care of flash can be quite complex- he’s on a strict medication and food routine to help manage his seizures. Growing up the dogs in my life have been German shepherds, Irish setter, border collie, Lhasapso, Labradors, Retrievers, patterdale terrier, Staffordshire bull terrier and of course mungrels. So far and having just started my business I have cared for little fudge who is a french bulldog and a little angel 😇. We had him overnight on a couple of occasions and during the day for walkies a few days also. He fit right in once I got him to calm down 😂 purely excited to be with us he was. I have also had the beautiful and soft natured Belle who's a retired racing greyhound. She immediately lay down like she was at home and bonded with flash who has the same energy as her. She walked perfectly and proudly around with the pack and was just another angel 😇. I have currently a home boarding booked in a with a little lhasaapsu cross who we will go meet first for a we walk and get to know each other. We are really excited about this😊. Finally I would say that my experience with dogs is an extensive one, in life, I have bonded with every dog I have come across (annoyingly for some) I have cared for dogs of all sizes and nature and intelligence! As a business my experience is relatively new as I only ever cared for dogs for enjoyment. Now it's my job and life. I'm a natural with dogs and I'm also training daily by taking on K9 college courses expanding my knowledge as much as possible. Most recently I completed the K9 first aid course and am now qualified in this. Next course I plan on will be a practical one also allowing me to work with my dogs and better my abilities. I work 5 day a week from 5am to 9am so that caring for dogs can be my main focus. My work days do vary but the work times are very static. Im currently studying in a K9 college, expanding my knowledge of dogs in all aspects. My course is flexible and fits around my personal daily doggy routine😍. I am very flexible for times that I can care for other peoples fur babies, and as such can dedicate myself to give the best care possible as and when required by you and your family members. At home I have a secure garden at the back with large grass area for the dogs. Pets have free run of the inside of my home. I can however crate if required in both my own home and your home. I am very proud to be Canine first aid trained and have first hand experience of dealing with sick, old, vulnerable and complicated dogs. I am currently studying at a renowned K9 college to better my knowledge of dogs in every aspect I can. Between me and my partner we have four years of K9 epilepsy management where we are able to administer daily medication for dogs, orally or injection. In worst case scenario we both can administer emergency medication as per instruction. We have a loving home with great vibes for all dogs big and small. We live on the outskirts of paisley right on the countryside border line where we are literally a 5 minute walk to miles of open Greenland and umpteen different walks to choose from. We have a child free household which only means your dog gets %💯% attention and love they deserve.

“Bridget way amazing! When we had a meet up she asked lots of questions and took notes so that she could give Jett the same care and attention he gets from us. She gave me daily updates and photos of Jett and their walks together. Bridget is such a kind and caring soul! We felt at ease while away knowing he was well looked after.”

“Róisín and Edward were lovely with my two dogs from our first meeting until the end of the week-long dogsitting arrangement. This was the first time I left Axel and Hawk for longer than a few days with someone new, while leaving the country. However, I felt relaxed as Róisín and Edward made sure to send me photos of happy dogs on walks and at home, and asked me questions if they were unsure of something (which I always appreciate!).”

“libby-jade was great with pepper! she sent me lots of updates and pictures and put my mind at ease when i was away. pepper seemed to get along with her and i would definitely use libby-jade again! :)”

It was a pleasure meeting Genevieve and Rory, and great to know that our two cats were in good hands. Our female cat is more wary of new people however the updates soon showed her sleeping on their bed and enjoying head scratches. We returned to two very chilled cats and a tidy flat. I really hope Genevieve and Rory will be available again in the future.
I Would like to thank Cara so much for taking care of Buddy. Along with other health issues Buddy was diagnosed with heart failure a week before I was due to go on holiday, so I was in two minds whether to go.

I would highly recommend Cara to anyone looking for their pet to be well cared for while they are on holiday 💙

Finding Amardeep was a blessing! I have been looking for the best sitter to leave my precious girls with and I am delighted to have finally found her. She has got girls love instantly and I am now totally relaxed about leaving them for longer periods when travelling. Lovely, caring and reliable, I highly recommend Amardeep. Thank you so much

Rachel was absolutely fantastic! This was our first time having someone dog-sit in our home and she made the whole experience so easy. She took wonderful care of our three dogs — they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. On top of that, she treated our house with great respect and kept everything in perfect order. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in East Renfrewshire on Rover is £34.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred East Renfrewshire walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in East Renfrewshire choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
