“Jasmine was an amazing sitter! She sent lovely daily photo updates and handled our cats perfectly, playing with the social one and respecting the shy one. She truly went above and beyond when she found a ceiling leak during a storm, alerting us immediately and helping dry the carpet. Trustworthy, proactive and caring. Highly recommended!”
About: I've taken care of animals all my life! Whether it's tiny newborns up to elderly pets. I've currently just finished my Level 3 Animal Management college course which has given me valuable insight into all animals ranging from farm animals all the way to exotic and aquatic animals. It's given me skills on Small animal rehabilitation, Training, Grooming and general health. I have all the certification to prove! I have applied to become a veterinary nurse at my chosen university and i'm awaiting my grades for this year! I have always wanted to become a veterinary nurse since i was a child as i am strongly passionate about animals and their general day to day care. A little bit about my life: I have had pets all my life including dogs, aquatic fish, guinea pigs and hamsters. This has given me a great understanding of the day to day care needed for your pets needs. I have also sat for neighbours, friends and family members when ever i am needed as i couldn't think of anything better than to take care of their furry friends :) I'm currently working part time fully flexible at my workplace, i usually get my rota 2/3 weeks in advance and can always book certain days off if needed to accommodate your furry friends! With this i can easily assist on days i am needed and will provide reliable and quick responses when necessary. When it comes to accompanying your furry friends i will always ask if they have a specific routines or any special/restricted dietary requirements as i know this is very important! Unfortunately i do not offer to bring your animals to my house as i have a cocker spaniel aged 2 who is very easily excitable and can be too much for other dogs! Therefore when looking after your animals whether it's a toilet break or lounging around for naps, they will always be in my eye sight to guarantee their safety.
“We had a great experience with our Aliyah! She followed all our instructions carefully and looked after our cats wonderfully. It was such a relief to know they were in safe hands while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed cats and everything was just as we left it. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: I’ve had dogs since childhood and understand that they need security and love, along with exercise and great care. A warm happy household awaits your furry family member! I currently work from home and have easy access to the park across the road, where our dog goes for his daily walk. There are plenty of other longer walks available nearby, too. I have a large secure fenced garden, perfect for a doggy friend for Monty. Our dog Monty loves all other dogs, even nervous ones! and puts them at ease.
About: Animals have always been part of our lives — one of us grew up surrounded by cats, the other by dogs — so caring for pets feels completely natural to us. As teenagers, we were the neighbourhood dog walkers, trusted to handle everything from quick midday walks to long adventures with energetic pups. We’ve raised our own pets too, and we’ve both had to say goodbye to elderly companions who needed slower walks, gentle reassurance, and lots of love in their final years. Because we work from home (and I have summers free as a teacher), we can offer flexible walking times that fit your dog’s routine. We love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. Whether your dog wants a fast-paced outing, a steady confidence‑boosting stroll, or a calm sniff‑filled wander, we’ll make sure they feel happy and cared for every step of the way. We have loads of time for pet care during the day. One of us works from home, so there’s always someone around, and with me being a teacher, I get long holidays that make our schedule even more flexible. It means we can fit walks, playtime, and company around your pet’s routine without rushing. We’re in our mid‑20s with no pets or children, and we have plenty of daytime availability — one of us works from home and I have lots of holidays as a teacher. Our garden is a good size and fully secure, giving dogs a safe space alongside their walks.

“This is the second time Charlotte has come to drop in on my cats. She gives fab updates and she seems to genuinely care about them - I felt very settled knowing Charlotte was watching out for them whilst I was away. Thank you so much xx”
“Ben was available at short notice with good choice of times to drop in and let my dogs out in the garden. Replies very fast and even arranged to visit the evening before to discuss and grab the key. Amazing with my energetic springer and made sure to tire him out. Even messaged me throughout the visit to let me know that my older stubborn dog wouldn’t leave the sofa!”

I rescued my own little cat three years ago so I know how much love and patience goes into looking after your gorgeous pets. I commonly look after my friends dogs whether just going for walks or overnight so they encouraged me to set up this profile.

I also try to do long walks on most of my weekends so I would love to have your pet as company! Equally I’m happy to spend the day/a few hours on the weekend spending time with your pet if that’s what they require. I will leave everything exactly as I found it and treat your home with the upmost care. If your pet has special requirements when left alone ie in a crate then I’m happy to follow this.
“Lilith was settled when I returned and enjoyed her time with Naomi. I felt very confident leaving her in Naomi's care! She was very communicative beforehand, kept me updated when I was away, and sent loads of pictures and videos. Thank you!!”
“Emily was excellent, she provided lots of photo updates and gave our cats lots of fuss. We arrived back from holiday to a very clean house and 2 very happy cats! Thank you for taking such good care of them!”
“Holly-mai did a wonderful job of looking after my cat Munchkin. Followed instructions, perfectly, and left my cat happy, fed and calm.Wouldn't hesitate to have Holly -mai look after my boy again ! Thanks Holly- Mai.”
“Keishia was absolutely amazing for our 2 dogs for a drop on visit. Both dogs are a bit crazy and she took on the challenge and smashed it. You can tell she loves all animals and also enjoys her job. She sent us loads of photos and videos from both visits and was great with answering any and all questions we had. She also came to meet them before hand and she was a really lovely person to even chat with :) Will definitely be using her services again! Thankyou Keishia x”

“Hannah was brilliant! She looked after our cat Tuna so well. We were very comfortable knowing he was being well looked after whilst we were away from him for the first time. Hannah provided consistent updates to us of him which was reassuring and eased our minds. We would definitely recommend Hannah and would love for her to help us out again in the future 😊”

Laura was amazing. As someone who wad very nervous in leaving my cat, I was put at ease from before we even left with the cat meet and greet. Laura kept me updated throughout the week with the report card for each visit, and was able to keep my cat happy. On top of that she was able to administer her medication which was a new addition quite recently. Laura also went above and beyond by ensuring our air con tank was emptied, and even took our recycling to the skip! Very good experience.
Shirley did an excellent job at looking after our boy. We really appreciated all the updates and photos and she even went out her way to check up on him in the morning because she didn’t see him the night before and we only booked one evening visit a day. We would have no hesitation in using Shirley again.
Nicola was exactly what we were looking for in a cat sitter. Friendly, caring and super patient with our grumpy boy. Great attention to detail with our instructions. And she sent really lovely reports and lots of photos, which made our holiday that bit more enjoyable. 100% recommend and will definitely book Nicola for future visits 😊
Hannah and her partner looked after my cat for around 2 weeks while I was away, and cannot thank them enough for caring a lot about my cat,which is very shy with strangers and always hide but for some reason she got along very well with hannah since first day. Hannah had always been very comunicative with us and was sending us pictures of some of her visits. She also followed our instructions with precision and even informed us for an unexpected issue we were having with the house. Thanks both of you for looking after my Luna, and would definetely book your services for any other futurr trip we may do.
Elenya is lovely. It's been so reassuring to have her check in and look after my cat while we've been away. She's proved to be really reliable, sending me updates and photos each time she's visited. I definitely recommend Elenya and if need be I will be happy to have her look after Mia again in the future.
Had a fantastic experience booking Alice. From the initial communication (very responsive) through meeting her (both our pets liked her instantly) to her looking after our pets for a number of days, she's been absolutely superb. She is very dilligent and goes above and beyond caring for our pets attending to their needs within their home environment. She was great at updating us, relaying info and folllowing any instructions or requests perfectly to support our pets whilst we were absent. We came home to waggy tails and loud purrs. We and our pets have been delighted to find such a professional and wonderful petsitter and would hire her again without hesitation for future bookings.
I am so happy I chose to work with Charlotte. She took really good care of my furbabies when I was away. Since, this was my first time working with a pet sitter, I was quite worried how it will turn out, but, she did a really good job. Definitely, will work with her again whenever I need help with my babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Erewash on Rover is £13.8 per Visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 877 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Erewash. About 90% of Erewash sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
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.
