“Amelia was fantastic with our fur baby, Brodie. First of all, she was excellent at communicating with us from our initial enquiry through to the end of her pet sitting with Brodie. She sent lots of photos, followed instructions perfectly, wasn’t phased by potential rain and managed to get in a nice long walk with Brodie, and again communicated really well. We will definitely call on her again!”
“Zoe looked after our little pomeranian Wolfie on the hottest day of the year at a whooping 35degrees. She took so much care in ensuring his paws and belly were kept damp and cool often with water to help him cool down. She provided regular status updates on how he was doing and made sure a fan was on for him at all times. I would recommend Zoe for anyone!!”
“Roxana was so wonderful with my elderly dog Kookie. We got the funniest updates and loads of pictures all day which was so reassuring. She took excellent care of my princess pooch 🫶❤️🐶”
About: I have a genuine love of dogs, walking and nature 💛 With over 10 years of experience and a 'Professional Dog Boarder & Walker' qualification from the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT) you can rest assured your dog is in safe hands ✅ I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, anxious dogs and a wide range of personas and types in-between 😊 Living in Surrey means I have access to lots of beautiful woodland and parks and I'm sure your dog will enjoy this fun and enriching daily experience. 🌳🌲 I aim to make your fur baby feel at home 🏡. You can expect playtimes, favourite toys, treats, regular breaks, comfortable sleeping areas, meal times, fresh water, shade, and lots of love 💕. I live in a cul de sac, have a back garden & a green opposite my house so toilet & sniff breaks are in these areas 🏡 Please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your requirements or to arrange a meet & greet :-) Thank you. Danielle Pet care is my primary midweek job: This includes Mon, Weds,Thurs, and Fri. I am free to give your furry friend the attention they deserve. I have a fenced garden to keep your fur baby safe. I also have crates & gates to ensure additional safety should your dog require this. I provide toys, basic treats, poo bags & food bowls.
“Ella was fantastic with my two rescue boys, Bobby and Juan. Juan is quite nervous at first but Ella soon sent me pictures of him cuddling on the sofa and having snuggles! Ella sent me frequent updates and pictures which was very reassuring and helpful for me as an anxious dog mum! Ella is a lovely person, very caring, kind and clearly loves animals. Thank you so much Ella for taking such good care of our boys 🫶🏻”
“Megan and Harry were absolutely stellar! They took care of Paddington at our house for an overnight stay and everything went great. Paddington can be quite nervous but they made him feel safe straight away and we found him very happy when we got back. We’ll definitely trust them with Paddington again.”
“Sam is a great guy. He's 100% reliable and trustworthy and was brilliant with my Cavapoo puppy 'Noodle'. Sam is really calm and reassuring and Noodle took to him straight away. It made me feel confident that Noodle was in very safe hands. I had a problem getting cover for one of the days I was away and Sam stepped in and saved the day. I will definitely be booking Sam again 😀”
“Seffie was great with Woody. I was kept up to date with messages and pictures. Looked like they had a great time together. Would be very happy booking with Seffie again!”
“April’s warmth immediately put us at ease during a meet and greet and then when she looked after our boy was really communicative, lots of pictures and updates. We’d happily use again for sure.”
“Kayleigh has been fantastic. Our very demanding dachshund fell in love with her immediately which makes going away so much more enjoyable. I cannot rate her highly enough.”
“We were absolutely thrilled to have Sally look after our new Cavapoo puppy Teddy. She is so friendly, warm and clearly loves looking after dogs. She sent me lovely update messages and took the most stunning photo’s. We will definitely use Sally again and highly recommend her.”
“So so happy that we have found someone who understands the needs of both of our boys, I am sure they were very disappointed to see Emma go home!! The first time I have ever truly relaxed and not worried about our boys, knowing they are being loved and cared for as though we were at home! Thank you so so much Emma! 🐾🐾❤️”

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Elmbridge
It was the first time for us using Rover and Sally was absolutely wonderful. She came to visit our dog and I at home before we went away and straight away we all knew that our dog would be in safe and capable hands. Sally took time to understand if there were any specific needs that our dog had and talk through our routines, feeding habits and anything else that helped to ensure our dog was happy and settled. Sally is kind, loving and obviously loves the company of animals. She looked after our home beautifully and it was so nice to be away, not have to worry and receive daily updates with some great photos of our dog having the best time. I would highly recommend Sally. Sally is respectful, trustworthy and most importantly kind and caring to animals. We came home to a spotlessly clean home and very happy pooch. We would definitely book Sally again.
Ross looked after my gorgeous girls so well and I am glad to have found him. Both dogs took to cross immediately. Would definitely use him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter. Enjoyed the pup updates and thank you for keeping the house clean even though I said I didn’t care..
Holly was the perfect cat sitter for us — proactive, responsible, and communicative. She followed our instructions for Pushkin perfectly, and we soon relaxed into our holiday in the knowledge that he was in really good hands. We came back to a very smug and satisfied cat, and a very tidy home, which we truly appreciate! Would definitely recommend Holly to other cat owners, and we will definitely book Holly again.
Margo is a loving warm an caring person. She looked after my beagle boy for 2 weeks. She sent regular updates and news on his general wellbeing. I loved how she got to know him and commented on his unique behaviours and habits. I will definitely use her services again. Thank you Margo and Max.
I had a wonderful experience with Johanna. She was so thoughtful and came by a few days beforehand to meet my puppy, which really put me at ease. During her time with my pup, Johanna very kindly sent pic updates, and clearly is a natural with dogs. I came home to a happy puppy and couldn’t be more grateful. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter 🐶
Maya is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter / house sitter. She took care of my special needs dog with utmost consideration and patience. She is kind and friendly. My dog loved her from the moment she met her! We are grateful for Maya and will absolutely welcome her back to our home to take care of our girl.
Jenna looked after Pickle and Taco (and our home) for 10 nights. Pickle is relatively low maintenance but Taco has anxiety and is VERY vocal, which can be tricky to deal with. Jenna handled Taco's issues with compassion, patience and understanding - showing a great deal of empathy in the process and making us feel a lot better about leaving him with a 'stranger'. She was proactive in finding new ways to help settle him down and never once complained. She was communicative the entire time, sending plenty of updates and responding in a timely manner. We had told her in advance she was welcome to have guests over but she still checked in to make sure it was okay before having anyone over. There was also a day where she needed to be out of the house for an extended period, during which she kindly had her mom stop by to check on the cats and make sure Taco had his medication. We came back to two healthy, happy cats and a clean house that had clearly been looked after. All in all, we are very happy with the service and would gladly book Jenna again (in fact, we have already!)
Lewis looked after our two boxers who are high energy one who is currently only 6 months and the other is only just two. Lewis was amazing, reliable and looked after them only how I could have wanted. He provided us with photos and updates for the 4 days we were away. The boys loved him. Lewis also looked after are home impeccably. I have no qualms in rebooking him or recommending him. He was brilliant.
Olens is the most amazing dog sitter, does so much with your dogs and loves them like they are hers 💕 we have found the perfect dog sitter, and our boys perfect friend , we normally leave with family and this was first time, we tried a dog sitter, we will be using Olena forever, feel lucky we have found her xxx

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Elmbridge on Rover is £51.75 per night (as of August 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 Elmbridge 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 Elmbridge 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. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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.
