About: If a friend brings me to a house with a dog and I go missing, I'm probably sitting somewhere petting their dog. I've been around dogs my entire life, and I always will be, having dogs in my life makes it whole. Apart from occasional freelance work, I have a lot of available time to spend with your doggos :) I am available for dog walking most of the time, however due to being a parent, house sitting may be less often, however still sometimes available. Care will always be completely tailored to individual dogs and owners as the owners will know best how to care for their dogs and routine has the best stability :)
“Johanna visit my cat, Tux, while I was away for a few days, feeding, changing litter, having play time. Johannah clearly loves animals and is kind and conscientious. She always communicated well and sent messages and photos. I wouldn't hesitate to ask her back or to recommend her to look after your pet.”

About: I have grown up around pets, never a day in my childhood without a dog ! I Loved lifeguarding with my furry best friend in the USA ! Pet sitting for family for multiple weeks whilst abroad ! Currently studying Animal Biology at University ! (pics attached) I am currently a university student studying animal and conservation biology. I have some spare time which I would like to fill with some extra work in animal care ! Always ensuring needs are met including fresh water available at all times and food provided when needed. Daily walks are essential for doggies! I love getting outside for a nice walk. Pets are a big responsibility, with consistent attention required, and I seek to provide this whilst caring for them !

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have looked after multiple family pets of different breeds, sizes and temperaments. I’m confident handling energetic dogs as well as calmer or older pets. I’m reliable, patient and genuinely love spending time outdoors walking and caring for animals. Available evenings after work and weekends, and happy to follow any specific routines or training preferences owners have. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priority and I will treat your dog like my own to make sure they feel safe and happy. I work until 4pm on weekdays, which means I’m available for evening walks and visits from around 4:30pm onwards. I’m also flexible most weekends. Pet care fits easily into my routine as I genuinely enjoy getting outdoors after work, and I’m happy to plan my evenings around bookings to make sure pets get the time and attention they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I always follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding at the right times, fresh water, toilet breaks, playtime, and of course lots of attention. For dog walks, I make sure they are safely handled on the lead and suited to their energy level. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they feel reassured while they’re away. My priority is always your pet’s safety, happiness and wellbeing.

About: Hi! Im Trish ! Thank you for considering my services. I’m a lifelong animal lover, professional dog spoiler, and firm believer that every dog deserves to be treated like family (possibly even royalty). I have my own little sidekick, Milo, a whippet/Italian greyhound mix with long legs, lots of personality, and absolutely no understanding of personal space. Having a dog of my own means I completely understand how nerve-wracking it can be leaving your pet with someone else, which is why I put huge importance on trust, communication, patience and making your pet feel genuinely loved and safe. I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life and have experience looking after all sorts of dogs; tiny nervous pups, giant cuddle monsters, energetic chaos gremlins and sleepy seniors alike. Honestly, nothing is too small, too big, too fluffy or too weird for me to absolutely adore. Animals have always been a huge part of my life and I genuinely love getting to know all their little personalities and quirks, so whether than means I have to sing a song to get your dog to eat, I'm all for it ! I live in a quiet, dog-friendly village with a huge park right outside my living room window, which is basically every dog’s dream. I work only 2 and a half days in the office and spend the rest of the week working from home, so there’s plenty of time for walks, play, cuddles, snack negotiations and companionship throughout the day. I’d genuinely love nothing more than some extra furry company while my partner is working as I'm currently trying to persuade him to adopt another sidekick ! I also have a car and love being outdoors, so your dog can expect anything from peaceful village strolls to scenic adventures through parks, forests, beaches and munroes depending on their personality and energy levels. Whether your dog wants an action-packed adventure or simply someone to curl up beside and be obsessed with them for the day, I can tailor everything to suit their needs. You’ll also receive daily updates, photos and probably messages about the funny thing your dog did that day, because I know how reassuring it is hearing that your pet is happy, relaxed and being treated like one of the family while you’re away. Any questions, feel free to ask me ! Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I work in the office 2.5 days per week (Mondays 8.45am-12.00, Tuesdays, and Fridays from 8:45am–5:00pm). The rest of the week I work from home and am available on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and weekends. When working from home, I have the flexibility to adjust my schedule to accommodate dog boarding, walks, feeding times, playtime, and any other care needs such as giving medication. I am committed to ensuring pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, exercise, and companionship throughout their stay, and I can adapt my routine as needed to meet each dog’s individual requirements. I provide a safe, comfortable, and caring home environment where pets are treated like part of the family. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medication (if needed), and any specific care instructions provided by the owner. Dogs receive regular walks 3 times a day, playtime as needed, mental stimulation, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I ensure they have access to fresh water at all times and a clean, comfortable space to rest with multiple blankets and dog beds available. I also provide regular updates and photos to owners for peace of mind while they are away. My priority is making sure every pet feels happy, secure, and well cared for during their stay as I know how stressful it can leaving your loved companion with someone else.
“Abbigael was welcoming to Jacqui when we arrived and very excited to stay with her. On returning Abbigael told me all about Jacqui's visit, what they had been up to and how she had reacted. She obviously had a great time as she was very happy and quite tired out. Not an easy task for this active young pup. I am now very happy to be leaving her for a longer stay.”

“Claire was great. She sent me photos and videos of my cats. They were well cared for, fed, watered, entertained and litter tray sorted. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or use her services again.”

“Tess looked after Freddie on two of my office days this week and was fantastic. Communication was excellent, she was always on time, and I received lovely photo updates throughout. Freddie clearly had a great time! I’d happily recommend Tess to friends and would absolutely rely on her again whenever Freddie needs care 😊”

“Amanda was amazing. She gave me a lot of confidence right away, and Bruno absolutely loved her from the moment he met her. She was calm, friendly, and clearly experienced with dogs. It was very reassuring to know he was in such good hands. I would definitely book with Amanda again and highly recommend her.😊”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child, my most recent dog sitting was for 6 months while the lady worked so I had him all day during the week. I am currently working part time so I will have loads of time to spend with your pups and take for fun long walkies . I have a young friendly small dog to keep your pup company, I stay near a large green area plenty of space to walk your fur baby.
About: I looked after my family dogs and friends dogs too. I had lots of pets in the past because I love animals and I had a field. I work from home and have a lovely dog. I live by the meadows and take my dog for amazing walks. It is an opportunity to enjoy the company of best human friends in a pleasant atmosphere. Dogs who came here had the time of their lives. Friends suggested me I should be looking after dogs. I have a lovely dog. I work from home flexible hours so they are all day with me, right next to me getting cuddles and attention and exercise. I have a nice fenced garden, a cosy living room and kitchen. I live by the meadows in Edinburgh, dogs paradise. I only need to cross over to the most amazing park.

About: I look after friends and family’s pets whenever necessary, and have been a part of Rover for a wee while now. I have experience with different breeds/sizes and love time spent with animals! I’m currently working part time and my hours are very flexible week by week! I live right next to the pentlands so plenty walks and outdoor time. I have a fenced garden at the back, with decking, and a front garden space. I have one young female spaniel called Rosie who is friendly (although likes to make a fair noise when first meeting new friends).
About: Hi I'm Lauren, I have about 29 years pet care experience this includes my own as well as pet sitting and dog walking for others throughout the years. Over the years I've had many pets who were all very much loved and well cared for but sadly some are no longer here. ( isn't that the worse thing about having pets ). We currently have ; two young cat Pepper & Everest; A Guinea pig Kovu ; Two giant african land snails Bowie and Bella and about 30 odd Ramshorn water snails. So as you'll see I'm used to a wide range of animals not just Cats and Dogs. Monday & Wednesday 3.30pm onwards - Dog walks and pet visits can be provided Tuesday - Doggy day care. Dog walks and pet visits can be provided Thursday from 3.30pm , a Friday & a Saturday - Overnight boarding.Doggy day care , dog walks and pet visits can be provided. Sunday - Doggy day care , dog walks and pet visits can be provided. ..Due to working on a Monday any over night boarding dog/s still here on the Sunday will need to be collect by the evening. Each pet sitting job or dog walking will be choosen by and tailored to the individual needs of the client and their pet/s. It's not a one size fits all and I think tailoring these wants and needs of the individual makes things not only professional but adds a more personal touch as well. Thank you for looking. Please feel free to ask any queries you may have.
“Thanks Amaris! This was my first time using Rover and Amaris was great! Wallace seemed totally unbothered that I had left him! Amaris was great at communicating with me and I knew she would look after my puppy! Thank you!”

About: Hi there! I am grad of New York University (BFA) and Drama Centre London (MA), living in London on the Global Talent Visa. I grew up with many pets in my life. I had never owned less than three dogs until I left my home in Orange County for the big apple where I studied at NYU. I have a huge space in my heart for animals and would love to spend some time caring for your dog(s) or cat(s). I have a great deal of experience dog walking, sitting, and boarding both inside and outside of Rover. In moving across the pond, I had to say a sad 'see ya later' to my favorite little cutie pies back home -- Dallas a sweet, sweet chocolate lab, and Abby and Bella, the cutest little cockapoos that ever were. The good news about my doggy withdrawal is that your pets will get more than enough attention, walks/runs, play time, and cuddle time. I am very attentive and sensitive to the needs of animals -- I nearly became a veterinarian before I decided to follow my passion in the arts. I am writing a feature film which means I will be home with the doggos a lot of the time, working on that project and a few other jobs I do remotely. I run a theatre production company and am in pre-production as well for a few films. I am very responsible and will take such good care of your furry friends! Look forward to meeting you and them :) I am an actor, so in between jobs I have quite a flexible schedule. Currently working on writing a screenplay and other remote projects which means I will have plenty of time for your pets! I will always make sure your dog or cat is as safe as can possibly be and will confirm details with you when staying in your home or boarding at mine about what they are used to, and what will make them feel cozy and safe etc.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of different breeds through looking after family and friends dogs. They relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am currently at Abertay University studying Food, Nutrition, and Health. Therefore, i would love to take care of your pets in my spare time! I have a closed off garden to keep your dogs safe. I can easily crate your dogs also if that is what you would be looking to do.

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.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Fife 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 Fife 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.

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.
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.
