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.
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.
“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.”
“Aliyah did exactly what we needed and kept us updated throughout, which meant we could relax on holiday knowing our cat was in good hands. We wouldn't hesitate to book Aliyah again.”
“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 😊”
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.
“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!!”
About: DISCLAIMER: I received a 1 star review after a dog I took in bit me, and I had to remove the booking. Rover said reviews can be removed, when you are not in fault, but the star average cannot be changed or be removed once submitted. but please view my other reviews to see more accurate representation. I have recently come back to Rover! I am a huge animal lover, and experienced with training and caring for multiple different breeds of dogs and cats. I am fully insured for extra peace of mind. Through rover I have looked after many different breeds, with different levels of needs and health which I have been able to ensure they get the level of care and attention they need. Ensuring they never miss medication, and get good exercise for their needs. :) I am experienced with house sitting, which is usually a better option for your babies if you do have longer trips away, as it keeps them in a familiar environment with much less stress. I will send you lots of pictures and updates to suit your communication preferences! :) I am 31 years old, and have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I’m able to continue training if they are young, and experienced with senior care too. I work remotely full-time so happy to ensure no one is left unattended. Just moved to the Nottingham/chilwell area! Any questions just message! :) I work remotely, full-time so have a lot of flexibility. Your pet will be in constant supervision. My schedule is flexible so I can adjust walking schedules to fit your preferences? When house sitting I try and stick to the routines you have built in your home to ensure they feel as relaxed as possible. I think communication is key, and you will be sent updates in photos and messages as much as you feel comfortable with. I also drive, and have a car so if you needed me to take them to any appointments that’s also a possibility.
“Shirley was super punctual and reliable in looking after our cat Binky. She attempted every visit to bond and build trust with her and sent us detailed notes on how each visit went and how our cat was doing with it all. She made us feel very reassured that Binky was well attended to whilst we were away. Thankyou again Shirley!”

About: Hi, I’m Lakin, 23 years old, working in customer service and looking to use my love for animals in a meaningful way. I’ve had four cats throughout my life since I was a young child, so caring for them has always been second nature to me. I truly adore cats, they’re loyal, loving, gentle, and each one has their own unique personality. I’m always willing to go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Your cat’s happiness and wellbeing would always be my top priority. 🐾 I’m currently working Monday-Friday 9am-5pm, however happy to use annual leave when needed! I’m available in the morning and evenings in the weekday and across all hours over the weekend! I have a fully fenced spacious garden, I don’t have any of my own pets at home so your pet can make themselves comfortable and have my full attention!

About: As a couple we would make excellent dog sitters because we both bring a mix of responsibility, patience, and a genuine love for animals. Whether it’s going on long walks, sticking to feeding schedules, or providing plenty of playtime and affection, we are committed to making dogs feel safe and cared for. As a team, we balance each other’s strengths, whether that be handling high-energy pups or creating a calm, comforting environment, we are dedicated to adapting to their needs. Furthermore, we understand that every dog has its own personality and we are both ready to treat them like part of the family. I am a 21 year old newly qualified nurse, who is currently working as a bank carer so i have a fairly flexible schedule and im willing to help as much as possible. Me and my partner are currently saving to go travelling and we are hoping to move away to australia to begin my nursing carer so all of this extra work is a contribution to this. To ensure an animal is cared for in its owner's home, I would closely follow all provided instructions, stick to the pet's usual routine, and create a calm, familiar environment. I’d also keep the space clean, give the pet plenty of attention, and stay in regular contact with the owner to provide updates and address any concerns.

Nicola was great looking after my cat Hollie. She spent time to fuss her, feed her, and kept the area nice and clean. Hollie is quite shy but Nicola took the time to bond with her and this has made all the difference. I'd definitely recommend Nicola to anyone who wants a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you Nicola 🙂
Shirley was super punctual and reliable in looking after our cat Binky. She attempted every visit to bond and build trust with her and sent us detailed notes on how each visit went and how our cat was doing with it all. She made us feel very reassured that Binky was well attended to whilst we were away. Thankyou again Shirley!
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 August 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 933 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.
