“Wonderful Took my girl for her 1st walk Always scary leaving your dog with someone else. She was however very safe , happy and loved. Photos were sent and made me smile 😊 Thank you Bev”
“Ana was absolutely wonderful, communication was great. On top of that, she was incredibly sweet and attentive with my dogs, treating them with genuine care and affection. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands.”
“Cannot thank Louis enough for the great job she did looking after our cats! She was on time everyday and went above and beyond what we asked her to do. Came home to 2 very happy kittens. She sent updates each time she visited also which was very reassuring and was extremely professional the whole time! Do not hesitate to ask her to look after your pets!! very very highly recommended”
“Freya looked after our two cats at our home for a few days, she looked after them so kindly and got to know them both! She also made sure our home was well looked after as well, and kept us updated with texts and videos of the cats every time she visited. She was excellent and we will definitely use her again, we highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life and currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats as well as experience with lizards and bunnies. We are a family that is always on the go and loves to go out for a good walk or run around. I have taken care of dogs from newborns to seniors and understand the attentive care that is required. I currently work but I’m free on weekends and most weekdays I’m able to scoot out to check up on them. I generally have an open morning and evening even after taking my dogs out to have their daily run. I have a fenced in back garden, but take walks around the estate or woods with a long lead. I have a friendly medium dog and a cat that minds himself but is also friendly. I understand some pets have certain eating habits so i keep them all separate during feeding time.
“Layla was an absolute star, looking after our cat Halo while we were away. From the photos Layla sent us through the app, we could see how much fuss she made of Halo and how Halo warmed to her very quickly. Layla also coped admirably with having to medicate Halo twice a day, which was a big relief for us. We won't hesitate to ask Layla to help us out again with drop-in visits when we're away. She was utterly trustworthy, completely reliable and we are soooo glad we found her!”
About: I have been dog, cat, and house sitting since childhood! I have volunteered at SPCA and have always found or adopted my pets. I grew up with a golden retriever and several cats. My schedule is very flexible right now, as I recently relocated to bury st Edmund's. Hoping to make the most of my time by helping out others and getting to spend time with their furry family. I have spent many years caring for pets of friends and family in their homes. I've always felt that it's easier to keep them in their home where they are familiar and comfortable and I am the one who is in their space. They are already missing their parents (owners) no need to add more stress.
About: Ive taken care of various dogs from small to large across my life. I have dog sat for miniature poodles to labradors and greyhounds. I have a rescue German shepherd with my husband who we love to pieces! I am an animal person and love animals of all kinds! I currently work part time on weekends so from Monday to Friday i can be with your pets for as long as you need! I can be flexible to fit your schedule! I will ask some questions before I take on looking after your pet in your home, so i can ensure a safe and trusted experience for your pet! I will follow your rules and respect you and your pet!
“Belinda came to visit the pets beforehand and while I was away she was very reliable, visited on time and sent me photos every day. Such peace of mind while I was away over Christmas was priceless. I can absolutely recommend Belinda.”
“Thank you again Stacey-Leigh! Stacey-Leigh has looked after Pippa several times now when we've been away, trust her completely and goes great peace of mind when travelling that Pippa is in safe hands”
“I have a very particular cat who likes nearly nobody but she loved Erin so much she wouldn’t let her put her down! Miracle! I got photo updates and was put very much at ease. My girl was happy, clean and fed when we arrived home. Would definitely hire again and recommend to anyone!”
About: I grew up with a dog in the family and enjoyed taking care and spending time with dogs ever since. I have experience looking after dogs with different personalities and needs, and I always treat them as my own. I also have a valid DBS certificate for extra peace of mind. I work from home so have some time to spend with pets. I can walk the dogs, play with them and feed them according to the schedule desired I live in a house and have a small garden where dogs can spend their time. Plenty of parks to take them for a walk around too
“Very happy with Pedro. My dog Betty was especially relaxed around him and I felt happy with everything. When I returned home they were happy and had fresh water. Getting updates and pictures whilst I was out was very reassuring.”
About: I've taken care of over 50 pets and I've lived in a house surrounded by pets so they get used to me quite easy. I sometimes attract pets outdoors.💖 I am quite flexible with my schedule so I can also sit last minute. Currently rent so I can't take them in my house but I can visit coffees or parks I normally enjoy playing with the animals, feed and clean after them. I am quite creative so it won't be boring, usually focusing on the pet
About: I am an animal lover who is home all day in Witchford and who is able to provide a lot of love and attention to your pet. I looked after many pets on Rover when we lived in the USA and now I am starting again in England. I have a Boston Terrier called Poppy who I take out 2 times a day for walks already and who would love to make new friends and play. I grew up with dogs as a child in Sri Lanka, previously having a Dachshund and a Dalmatian. I like to train my puppy to sit, stay and come and to keep her clean with a bath once a week. My husband is also a dog lover who has had a Golden Retriever and a Jack Russel in the past and who will add extra love and car to your pet care experience! We have a 2 year old daughter who loves animals as well but we request that your pet also likes and is experienced with children. Poppy is also fine with cats and we have looked after cats before I am not working currently so can focus on your pet’s care. I am flexible in terms of drop off and pick up and I can walk the dog twice a day I have a big house with a fenced garden that your pet can run around and play in. Our village is very quiet and safe

This is our third time we have used Anna for our gorgeous Darcey girl and we cannot recommend her enough. She has a genuine care for the animals she looks after and follows all instructions down to a T. She ensures Darcey is her happiest self and we get lots of lovely updates and pictures. Leaving your animal to go away is always hard to do but when we know Anna is taking care of her, it makes it so much easier. We luckily have never had any issues but we can tell that Anna would do her best to resolve them if they did arise. We have been away for both short periods and long periods and have had such a relaxing time knowing that we are coming back to a very happy little kitty 🐈
Clare was absolutely fantastic in looking after Rupert and keeping us updated with daily photos and what he had been up to! You could really tell she made the effort in spending time with him and giving him the attention and playtime he needed. Thank you Clare!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Forest Heath on Rover is £16.1 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 471 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Forest Heath. About 90% of Forest Heath 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.
