About: I have also in the recent years got very familiar with the feathered friends. My profile picture is of Mango who was a 2 year old Indian ringneck Parakeet. She was my best friend and sat on my shoulder keeping me company where I used to live. Unfortunately there was a terrible accident and she is no only with us. So birds are a big part of my love for animals too. So I do hair dressing & beauty therapy from a salon set up at home, also the odd mobile client too. Which makes it easy for me to come back and forth to watch and look after the animals. With my flexibility I’m never usually out the house for longer than 3-4 hours. Or the client could even come to the home I’m staying in, as long as my host is happy with that. My only long days out the house is Thursdays, where I travel to Hove and work as a laser tattoo removal practitioner. If and when this clashes with my house sitting, my mum is semi retired and she steps in for me so the animals are kept an eye on and taken out if I’m not there. I will follow instructions as provided with how the routine and safety measures will work for that particular environment I’m in. I have so much love and care for other peoples animals and il keep you updated with photos and messages to put your mind at ease as you’re away from your beloved pets.

About: I'm an sitter experienced in short weekend sits and month long ones too, providing care for different animals including a hyper-active adolescent Boarder Collie, a chill Bulldog, and a Staffie wanting to play and be loved all the time. I'm caring and attentive, really enjoying the company of animals. I know what it's like as i've really missed my pets while away, so I keep in touch with you throughout your trip so you know your house and pets are in good hands, photos included. I grew up with many animals including guinea pigs, dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. I am also careful to follow any routines with your animal and home and/or any dietary restrictions. I respect animals and just love bonding with them. It's as a great honour and responsibility to be entrusted with your beloved animals and home. I remotely work and study for my Masters giving you the assurance your pet will not be left alone for long periods of time. Your lovely pets safety, comfort, and fun is central to what I do. I have flexibility and can work around you and your pets schedule. I also offer longer visits to suit your needs and can take them on adventure walks and hikes to really tire them out, just ask. I'm an experienced house-sitter so know well each pet has a unique set of needs. I have cared for animals with additional needs and can give any medication needed. I have a van so can take them to their favourite spots or out exploring new areas. Your pets needs and safety will always be put first. Want regular photo updates? Enrichment toys made during the sit? Your pet has additional needs to consider? Whatever it is, I'm happy to accommodate it. Just ask ((: I specialise in elderly, anxious and energetic dogs and cats, able to accommodate different needs.

Lauren was an absolute star looking after our Staffie for a week from 1st January. She turned up on time, gave us regular updates and looked after our doggie and home with great care, even though she became very poorly herself during the stay. Others may have left us in the lurch but Lauren stayed, despite feeling ill, and we deeply appreciated that. We would have no hesitation in recommending Lauren to others, apart from wanting to keep her a secret so we can book her again!

Amazing experience using Hannahs house sitting services for the first time! She was very thorough in making sure she had all of Lennys requirements/ routine info, so he would have the best care possible while we were away. During the time she was with him in our house, we recieved a couple of updates and pictures, which was really reassuring! I've come back this morning and my house is tidy and has clearly been looked after. More importantly Lenny was in great spirits and clearly had an excellent night with his new friend 🥰. So glad we've found Hannah for evenings when we need a break. Will most definitely be using her again!

Leah was incredible - she saved the day at very short notice and house sat for me after my sitter cancelled the morning of with no message! Without her I wouldn't have been able to go on my trip away - she took amazing care of Angel and my home, and was just generally lovely. Highly recommend her!

About: I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether it’s cuddles on the sofa, tailored walks or sending daily pupdates with photos, I go the extra mile to make sure pets feel safe, happy and loved I work remotely, which means I can pet sit around my job with complete flexibility. Whether I’m caring for dogs or cats, I build my workday around their routine – from morning walks and playtime to feeding schedules and quiet company throughout the day. Since I can work from anywhere, I’m able to stay in your home making sure your pets feel safe, settled and never alone for long. Being at home means I’m always close by for attention, cuddles, or just a reassuring presence. When caring for pets in their own home, I always aim to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your routines closely – from feeding times and walk schedules to play sessions and cuddle preferences. I take care to respect your home, keeping things clean and tidy and always making sure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well-loved in their own space. Whether your cat likes quiet company or your dog needs active play, I adapt to their needs and personality. I also send regular updates with photos, so you can feel fully at ease while you’re away.

I would thoroughly recommend Alice for house sitting your pets. Alice came to the house prior to us going on holiday to meet the dogs. I received photos whilst we were away and updates twice a day which was very reassuring and I would not hesitate to book Alice if she wanted to look after the dogs again

About: Hi, I’m Bianca. I’m a licensed pet sitter (Licence Number 13292) with Eastbourne Borough Council and fully insured with Protectivity Insurance. I have also been DBS checked recently and I can provide you the certification. I take safety and hygiene very seriously, and I always keep my home prepared for pets. I have pet first aid available in-house, an air purifier running daily, and after every booking I deep clean my carpets and sofas so everything stays fresh and safe for the next visitor. I’ve been around both dogs and cats since I was a baby, so caring for them feels completely natural to me. Over the years I’ve lived with and looked after many pets, including a 14-year-old female Husky and a 2-year-old male Dalmatian. Living with pets of such different ages and personalities taught me a lot about their needs, routines, and emotions. My landlords trusted me fully, often leaving their dogs in my care for several days because they knew how responsible and loving I am. Following a pet’s routine is extremely important to me. I always pay close attention to instructions and stay flexible so your dog or cat feels comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ve also had returning Rover clients, and the bonds I build with their pets mean so much to me. When a pet stays with me, it genuinely feels like they become part of my little family. I recently bought a house with a secure, fenced garden that gives dogs a safe place to explore and relax. I only host one dog at a time so I can give them my full attention, understand their behaviour, and make sure they feel calm, happy, and cared for every moment they are with me. For me, Rover isn’t just pet sitting. It’s sharing my love for animals and giving them a home where they feel just as comfortable and loved as they do with you. I currently work a full-time remote job from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays. However, I am quite flexible with my breaks and can easily attend to your pet’s needs, whether it’s checking in, playing, feeding, or walking them during boarding or pet care services. For dog walking services, I'm available to pick up your dog after 5:00 PM on weekdays. On weekends, I'm free all day for walks! When walking dogs, safety and trust are my top priorities. I always use sturdy, secure leashes and harnesses to ensure the dogs are safely under control. I stay vigilant, keeping an eye out for potential hazards like traffic, other animals, or unsafe terrain. I follow any specific instructions from the pet owners regarding their dog’s behavior and preferences, ensuring the walks are enjoyable and stress-free. I also carry essential items like water, waste bags, and a first-aid kit to handle any situation that might arise. Building trust with the dogs is crucial; I use positive reinforcement and maintain a calm, confident demeanor to make them feel secure and happy during our walks. This approach not only ensures their safety but also strengthens the bond of trust between us.

Rebecca is reliable and very professional. She is very caring in her approach to animals and our dogs were very relaxed when she looked after them. I was able to attend a wedding without any worries about how the dogs would be, knowing that she would put their needs first. I would have no hesitation in asking her to look after Toby and Lola in the future.

Hannah was an absolutely fantastic dog sitter for Rosie. From the moment she arrived, it was clear how caring and experienced she is with dogs. She also brought along her lovely little dog, Angel, who got on brilliantly with Rosie—they became fast friends straight away and it was so nice knowing Rosie had a companion while i was away. Hannah kept everything calm, fun, and well-organised, and Rosie was clearly happy and comfortable in her care. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was being looked after by someone so attentive and kind. Hannah provided plenty of pictures and video updates to keep me updated. I came home to a very content pup, which says it all! I would happily recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful dog sitter, and Rosie would definitely love to see Hannah and Angel again. 🐾

In fact I think the house was cleaner when we got back than when we left it! I cannot recommend Lilli highly enough, although part of me wants to keep her a secret so she doesn’t get too booked up…
