About: Animals have been a constant in my life from a young age. Life without their companionship isn’t worth living in my opinion. I have a broad experience of animal care from my own beloved pets - from puppy and kitten stage including training and more intense levels of engagement, play and attention, right up to senior years including administration of medications, monitoring conditions, and adapting care to suit the needs to frail or disabled animals. From a young age I offered private dog walking to my local area, both on and off leash, and different distances and levels of interaction depending on the needs and age of the dog and I am currently the go to dog walker, sitter and drop in for my neighbours one of whom has just welcomed a new puppy into their household and with whom I am regularily assisting with toilet breaks, walks, and feeding where needed. I have two cats of my own, who, I also walk having leash trained them from a young age. Living close to a busy road has meant that inorder to provide my kitties with the enrichment and stimulation they deserve, I make sure that I take them out every day if I can where we enjoy play, sunbathing and ‘sniff tours’. I am a reliable and trustworthy individual who will treat your beloved pet as I would my own. I take animal care very seriously and will go over and above to ensure the safety and happiness of all animals within my care. I rent two antiques stalls at a local antique centre, which allows me complete flexibility in my daily life. I can attend to my stall, at times that suit me; as little or as often as I need to. Therefore, I am able to offer complete flexibility when it comes to availability for pet care. I have mentioned already in my bio about my two beloved cats and the leash training that I have done with them and the outdoor enrichment this provides them safely, in an area which is otherwise, in my opinion, not safe for cats to roam freely. I devote myself to my pets and to the animals in my care; their needs come first, always. I offer everything from hands on engagement, play, grooming, medication administration and exercise to distanced companionship for those who want space and nothing more than to feel a presence within the home or an owner who requires the peace of mind that a watchful eye provides while they are away.

About: I grew up with 2 cats but have looked after my boyfriends German Shepard frequently in the past 6 years.

So lots of time for cuddles and attention inbetwewn meetings! We have a small garden in our home which is surrounding by fencing and brick wall so no escape artists here!

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 14 years old, my family dog back at home, I have looked after my best friends dog when she was away Recently I left my job so pet care would fit in very well with my routine as I am flexible and available to work more hours. I live in an apartment so for dogs it would be very safe as other animals such as foxes wouldn’t be able to get in. In a pet owners home I would ensure that everything on the instruction list is done. When taking the dog for a walk always making sure that I am cautious about other dogs and animals .

About: We are a couple living in a spacious house with a large, fully fenced garden, providing a safe and comfortable environment for dogs to stay. Having grown up around rescue animals in Greece, we have always had a strong love for pets. We cared for our own rescue dog, Chewbacca, for many years after bringing him to the UK, supporting him through old age and age-related health challenges. This experience taught us patience, responsibility, and the importance of adapting to each dog's individual needs. We only take on a small number of dogs at a time so that every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Our home is ideal for dogs that enjoy a calm family environment with secure outdoor space to explore. One of us works from home most of the week, and we carefully plan our schedule to ensure dogs are never left alone for extended periods. We understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, and we will care for your dog as if they were our own We both work full-time during the week, but one of us works from home on Tuesdays and Fridays, so there is always someone around on those days. We are fully available on weekends and can dedicate proper time to walks, play, and care. During weekdays, pets will still receive attention in the mornings and evenings, with a consistent routine to keep them comfortable We live in a house with a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can safely play and relax. Our home is calm and secure, and we always prioritise the pet’s comfort and routine. We have experience with older dogs and understand the importance of patience and supervision, especially with dogs that may need extra care. We only take on pets we can properly manage to ensure a safe and stress-free environment

About: I've been caring for cats and dogs since I was 16 years old. I'm now hoping to share that love and care with your pet! I'm available for boarding on weekdays or weekends. Just give me a couple of days' notice to get things organised for your pet's holiday hotel! I don't currently have any pets, so your animal will not have to worry about sharing space or being confined with other animals. I have no garden but have more than enough green space close by for extended walks.

We couldn’t be happier with Neetal. Meli, our 15‑week‑old dachshund, absolutely adores her — tail wagging the moment she arrives. She’s fantastic with updates throughout each visit, always quick to respond, and genuinely so accommodating. It’s such a relief knowing Meli is in such caring hands. Truly couldn’t recommend a better sitter. So pleased 💛🐶

Suzanne did drop-in visits for Fluffy and Willow over the weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with her care. She is a true pet person. You can tell immediately how much she genuinely loves animals. Both of my cats absolutely adore her, even Willow, who is usually very apprehensive around new people. Seeing Willow warm up to Suzanne so quickly really says it all! Suzanne looked after them wonderfully and kept me fully updated with regular messages, photos, and video, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It was so reassuring to see how happy and relaxed they were in her care. I’m so glad I found her. She truly is a star sitter. Highly recommended, and I will definitely be booking Suzanne again!

About: Friendly, calm and confident with dogs of all sizes and temperament. I grew up with a cat and dogs and gained lots more experience raising our border collie, Jacob, my absolute best friend. I also volunteer at various dog rescue kennels & charities for decades now, working with all shapes, sizes and behaviours, from puppies to seniors, comforting, walking, playing, cleaning, etc. This includes transporting dogs, administrating medication and senior care. I treat all pets as I would my own, giving them a 'home from home' dog care service and enjoying every second with them. My beautiful Jacob, having lived life to the full, passed peacefully at just over 17 years, so it's lovely to hear the 'pitter patter' of paws again! I live by 2 large commons and many other active green spaces, including parks and Epsom Racecourse, where I've walkied & played with many variety of dogs. I look after my friends' dogs and love what dogs give back to us. I also have experience of looking after rabbits, as well as having our own 2 for years and fostering another one. I'm used to using crates and have one here. We have a large open plan kitchen/living room so plenty of space, as well as a fenced and gated back garden. I send daily photos, to put owners mind at rest that they are enjoying themselves and are in safe hands. This is something I love to do. There is nothing as rewarding as spending time with your pooche & pets and as I don't take multiple bookings, I can give all of my time to them. I am happy to take a maximum of two from the same family or friends. I have a few commitments in the week, but can reschedule other activities around your requirements. They should be over 2 years old with a maximum weight of 18kg and I would drive up to 5 miles to pick up and drop off to you. I have a fenced & secure grass back garden and am within walking distance of several large green spaces, where dogs can walk and play. There are also a lot of dog-friendly areas nearby as I live very much in a dog-centred community. I have worked with many different dogs and cats over the decades and always treat them as if they were my own. I have also dog sat over several decades for friends far and local. I would take a maximum of 2 dogs from the same family, or friends, over 2 years old and up to 18kg in weight. I would follow your requirements and instructions for your pooches/cats, to make sure they are happy relaxed and feel safe with me. Having been a pet owner, I completely understand how important and precious our furry friends are to us! And would always ensure they feelin a 'home from home', safe and secure environment.

About: I've had pets my whole life - in particular I had a cat for 12 years and then more recently have had a, now 3 year old Samoyed, since she a baba puppy. I absolutely adore looking after animals and spending time with them, whether it's cuddles or adventures! I particularly appreciate opportunities to take care of pets that need extra consideration. I work flexible hours, with zero hours on a Wednesday and one day in the office. I walk my own dog late afternoon/early evening most days, with time to do visits to your pets morning, lunchtime and evening. We have a fenced garden and plenty of space inside. Our dog is incredibly friendly, but wouldn't be taken to house visits unless explicitly agreed that that's fine.

Anna was absolutely fantastic with looking after my cat Lou. I was quite anxious about leaving him because this would have been the first time he was left alone.

Daraisa has been absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Meryl and Flora. From the very start, it was clear how caring, attentive and experienced she is, and we’ve always felt completely confident leaving them in her care. Both dogs afterwards are home happy, relaxed and clearly well looked after, which says everything. Daraisa takes the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs, and it really shows in how comfortable and settled they are with her. Communication has always been excellent, and it’s reassuring to know they’re being cared for by someone who genuinely loves what she does. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Daraisa to anyone looking for reliable, kind and professional doggy daycare.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Epsom pet parents with similar pet households.

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.

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 Epsom 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:

  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
