Kerry was quick to reply to my initial message, keen to get to know Daisy before I went away, and communicative while I was away. I was sent daily photos, and feel that Daisy was really looked after while I was away. I will definitely book her next time I go away.

About: I've grown up with cats and love spending time with dogs, and I have sat for owners of both cats and dogs. I love all animals and would be excited to look after all kinds of pets! I adapt well to the pet's needs and personality, allowing them to warm up to me naturally. I will be able to spend lots of time with your pet! I travel frequently to see my partner who lives overseas, so a regular work schedule doesn't suit my needs. That means the flexibility of pet sitting is right up my street, and is my main focus. Apart from a few hobbies, I will be spending all my time at home taking care of your fur baby! I like to learn your pet's routines and keep to them where I can to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet, so I will send messages about how the pets are getting on as frequently as you'd like. Daily pupdates are not too much to ask!

Sally has excellent communication, she is very calm and kind which is what our dogs need. Sally came to meet the dogs before hand as one of our dogs can be difficult. They had a wonderful time with her and didn't even bother getting up to greet us. We have already booked other dates.

Absolutely fantastic service, she was kind when first meeting Poppy who wasn’t to sure at first! From the pictures it looked like Poppy really warmed up to Jennifer and looks relaxed. Which is a complete relief to know someone was there for her while we went to a concert. Thank you so much Jennifer!!

Keighley did a great job as always at looking after Pippi while we went away for a week. She made time in her busy set of bookings to come and feed and clean up after Pips for us and kept us updated with consistent communication and photos using the Rover card feature. Voiced her concerns around Pippi not eating as much as expected and afterwards was helpful in adjusting her feeding amounts and instructions without complaint. Reliable as always and much appreciated, thank you! X

About: I’ve been an animal lover all my life and have had had the privilege of being both a cat and dog mum. I lived in Dubai for 10 years and this is where I had my first experience of taking in 3 rescue kittens, that I went onto adopt. Then my rescue desert dog, followed by many more. They all returned with me to the UK and lived long and happy lives. I’ve also been a dog walker and cat companion for the RSPCA. Whilst I don’t have my own pets at the moment, we have many in the family that I am called on to look after. I work for myself so am able to run my own diary and I’m able to fit any pet care services around my current responsibilities. Although I don’t currently offer pet boarding services in my own home. I have a fenced garden and internal doors that allow for the front door to be separated from the main living area.

About: I currently have my own American Bulldog and at 50kg she's very strong on the lead and often not very friendly with other dogs. I have plenty of experience in looking after dogs of all sizes and dealing with challenging behaviours. Dogs have been a part of my family ever since I was a child, I always treat them as that. I am friendly and reliable and will always put your dog first, i will also keep you updated on what they get up to while your away . Thanks for looking hope to meet you and your dog soon . I'm currently working between 8am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday but I'm available every evening and overnight plus weekends if your local mid day drop ins can be available to I'm only available to look after your pet at your own house as my dog doesn't tolerate other animals unfortunately I believe dogs are most comfortable in there own environment anyway if I'm honest.

About: Hi, I’m Emily — a part‑time Health Care Assistant and second‑year Nursing Apprentice based in Whiteley/Fareham. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and currently have a 7‑month‑old Sprocker Spaniel, Reggie, who has given me plenty of hands‑on experience with puppy behaviour and routines. With two years’ experience as a Health Care Assistant and ongoing nursing training, I’m very comfortable with cleaning, hygiene, and handling any bodily fluids involved in caring for animals. I’m calm, organised, and friendly. I work from home Wednesday to Friday, so I’m consistently available for weekday house visits for both dogs and cats. Monday and Tuesday vary depending on my ward shifts, but I always have reliable mid‑week availability to provide feeding, fresh water, companionship, and check‑ins. During visits, I make sure dogs and cats feel calm and secure. I follow their usual routine, refresh water, manage feeding, and keep litter or toileting areas clean. With my healthcare background, I’m confident handling hygiene and maintaining a tidy environment. I always respect each pet’s boundaries and the owner’s home.

About: We really love getting to know all the new dogs we look after, and those we've come to know and become fond of after repeat care. We're reliable, and are at home all the time so have the time to look after dogs. We really love our own dogs having the chance to interact with other dogs, being able to play and have a doggy social life. Our own dogs are like children and treated with love and affection, they're a part of our family. We extend that same level of care to every dog in our care. Our Beagle is a wise and gentle companion who loves walks and snuggles and interacting with other dogs, while our Husky is a calm and shy sweetheart who adores affection and playtime's and has good character judgement like most dogs. We have a very spacious house with a lovely large fenced garden in a peaceful community backing onto the Windmill and woods, offering AMPLE space for play and exploration (garden doors constantly open for freedom to wander in and out, unless it's bad weather). Our usual haunts are either through the Windmill Woods, the nearest dog enclosure, or one of the country parks, but we do also have other routes we walk too so it doesn't become repetitive. We work from home during the week so have the time to look after dogs, and we like that our dogs get to meet and socialise with other dogs often. Dogs in our care are free to go outside in the garden whenever they need to and always have water, food and treats and walk breaks. We have a young child and older children so if your dog doesn't get on well with children due to nerves or past history, this won't be a setting for them in.

About: Growing up I have owned dogs, cats and horses, looking after all of their needs. I am well equipped when it come to animals needs, from taking care of my own pets as well as family friends and neighbours. I am currently a dog walker and I am looking to take up a few more hours. I am currently a dog walker and always pop home every few hours in between walks. My weeks vary so I am very flexible when it comes to checking in or walking your dog. I ensure my dog is always cared for and won’t be left alone any longer than 4 hours. Which is rare as someone is usually always home. If I am taking care of your pet I am happy to meet the requirements you and your animal needs.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and can’t imagine life without them. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all shapes and sizes - from tiny lap dogs to large, energetic breeds.

Because I work from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and company throughout the day, making sure they feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s walks, play, cuddles, or just quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. work remotely, which means I’m available throughout the day to give your pet consistent care, attention, and companionship.

I follow your routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions carefully, ensuring your pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.

About: Dog-sitting in Hampshire and London area. I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. My family has always had several dogs at home, with dad raising dogs for a living. From taking them for a walk to feeding and play time, that is more than a past time for me. I spend a lot of my time on the outdoors, especially walking and cycling around Hampshire and London when I’m in town for work. I have been dog-sitting in London for the past two years, providing your beloved pets with lots attention , cuddle times are mandatory and long walkies a must ! From huskies to poodles and whippets and greyhounds I have taken care to many different breeds and will always send you pictures and updates while you’re away :) I recently moved in Fareham/ Portsmouth area and am looking forwards to continue dog-sitting here as I love to spend my time with our lovely companions. I do accept overnight bookings in London as well seeing as I go into the capital every week for work. I work mainly from home and as long as I have an internet connection I can work from anywhere, which means lots of time for cuddles. The only day I have to go to the office is on Wednesdays. I am based in Fareham / Portsmouth, but go to London on eve a week for work. I am happy to accept overnight dogsits in London for a few days. I will make sure that your pets are well looked after in your home, making sure that they get plenty of playtime and walks, but as well relaxing time. As I work remotely, I always have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. As I have grown up around dogs with a dad raising and training dogs, I am used to any kind of pets.

5 stars, Kerry was brilliant. Kerry did daily drop-in visits for our cat Columbo while we were away and made the whole thing completely stress-free. We received photos and an update every day, which was lovely and helped us feel more relaxed. Columbo was in great spirits when we got home, clearly well fed and well looked after. Reliable, friendly and obviously loves cats. Extremely happy and would highly recommend.

FAQs for Cat Sitting – Fareham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fareham on Rover is £13.8 per Visit (as of September 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 808 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Fareham. About 90% of Fareham 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.
