Leanne was fantastic looking after my little pup at my house! She was extremely accommodating, came to meet me first to meet Maggie and kept me in the loop all night! I felt totally confident leaving the house knowing Leanne was there, will definitely be using her again :)

João took excellent care of Lisbela (my senior Labrador) and Mwanito (my cat) while staying at our house during our travels. He sent us plenty of videos and pictures, showing the love and attention he gave to our pets. In addition, João is incredibly organized and left our house tidy and spotless upon our return. Communication with João was seamless, and he was always kind and thoughtful. I couldn't recommend him more highly. Our pets adore João! Thanks to him, we can travel with peace of mind, knowing our home and furry family members are in the best hands.

anastasiia is very good with animals. She is always attentive to the needs of each dog, takes into account their characteristics and mood. It feels like she sincerely loves animals and has extensive experience in their care. During walks, she shows patience and care, always ensuring the safety and comfort of the dog. In addition, she pays attention not only to physical activity, but also to the emotional state of the animal, ensuring its comfort and good mood. The animals always feel calm and confident next to her.

About: Growing up we also had many different pets from guinea pigs to a tortoise! We have two dogs which I trained from puppies and have been walking since I was 14. I am confident around many different types and ages of dogs, having grew up in a very dog orientated family. I am currently studying for a masters degree and so am looking for something fulfilling and worth while to do alongside studying! This means my time is very flexible and I have a good amount of weekday availability. I have pet sit in a neighbours home on multiple occasions. I want to be very mindful of a pet owners home and animal when pet sitting, so both the owner and pet are 100% comfortable!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for two years, including participating in a school dog-walking program and regularly looking after friends’ dogs. My experience includes handling a variety of breeds, ages, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to older dogs requiring special care. I’m attentive to their needs and committed to providing a safe and loving environment. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I schedule regular walks, feeding times, and play sessions to ensure the pets are active, healthy, and happy. I also dedicate time for grooming, training, and giving them attention throughout the day. Whether it’s daily check-ins or extended stays, I prioritize their well-being and adjust my schedule to meet their needs. I primarily care for pets in the owner’s home to ensure they remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. I follow the owner’s routine for feeding, walking, and any special instructions, such as administering medication or specific care needs. I make sure the pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also keeping the home clean and secure during my stay. This helps the pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away.

Annie has looked after our pooch every time we have gone away... I wouldn't have anyone else look after her. She is given all the love and attention she needs and lots of walks...and regular updates too with pictures sent to us. She is always so excited when we pull up in the car outside Annie's because she knows where she is going ♥️ I would recommend Annie to anyone who needs their furry friends minded. She is amazing with animals 😁

Anastasiia looked after my dog Luka, German Shepherd. She is a bit reactive and needs long walks but Anastasiia did the hob great! She sent me lots of updates so I was calm while being away. She followed my instructions on feeding and walking schedule. I would definitely recommend Anastasiia for booking!

I cannot recommend Sudhanshu highly enough for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. My Labrador, who has struggled with anxiety and high energy issues, was in his care, and the experience was nothing short of incredible. Sudhanshu handled my dog’s needs with patience, expertise, and genuine care. He made sure my dog received plenty of physical activity to burn off excess energy while also creating a calm and nurturing environment to ease his anxiety. What truly stood out was the consistent communication—he provided regular updates, including video calls every 90 minutes or whenever I requested, which gave me complete peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone so attentive and dedicated to a pet’s well-being. My Labrador came back home happy, relaxed, and well-exercised—a testament to Sudhanshu's exceptional care. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust him again and wholeheartedly recommend him to any pet owner!

Whether it's playtime, walks, or simply being there for them, I’m dedicated to making sure every dog feels loved and well cared for. As a law student with flexible days free from lectures, pet care fits seamlessly into my life. I have my own place with my partner, allowing us to provide a comfortable and secure environment for your pets. Caring for animals during my free time is a rewarding way to balance my studies and passion for pets, ensuring they receive the attention and love they deserve. I live in a pet-friendly home with a garden and am conveniently located near a large field, perfect for walks and playtime. This setup allows me to provide ample outdoor activity and exercise for your pets, ensuring they enjoy a healthy and happy stay while you’re away.

About: I spent many of my teenage years volunteering at Brysons Animal Shelter mainly as a dog walker and have experience caring for a many dogs big or small, young and old. Through this experiences I met and rescued Monty (King Charles Spaniel) who gave me 8 years of unconditional love. Since Monty passed I’ve been working my way up career ladders and therefore didn’t feel it would be fair to take on another dog. I’d love to be able to support others fulfil their wish of owning a dog, and for myself spend time walking and caring for your dog. In addition to this I also have experience pet sitting and caring for cats and small animals. I work full time from my Newcastle based office 8:30 until 5:00 Mon-Fri however I am free most evenings and weekends. Depending on location I may be able to accommodate early morning walks. After owning a reactive dog for 8 years I’m very familiar with the many hazards you can bump into on walks and take all necessary precautions. I’m more than happy to implement any requests an owner has to make them feel at ease (e.g. muzzle, harness, training techniques).

Kathryn is wonderful with our Thora and we were so happy and grateful for her help while away. On our first meet we felt immediately comfortable and confident that Kathryn knew how to take great care of our cat in our home. We appreciated being kept informed that all was well while away and came home to a happy Thora. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kathryn’s help.

About: I love dogs and I have experience working with other animals, such as racehorses. I enjoy building a relationship with animals, especially dogs, and I am sure it will be clear to see that any dogs who stay with me will enjoy their time with me. They will get plenty of attention in a nice, peaceful, relaxed home. Lots of walks. I don't have a garden, just a back yard. However, there are great walking opportunities right outside my house. I work from home daily. I have a lot of flexibility within my job which would make it easy to care for a dog at the same time. One on one just me and your dog, no loud noises or other animals. Would suit a slightly anxious dog that needs a quiet, relaxing environment. I am looking for dogs that are not too high energy, and that will be fine being rinsed off in the shower if too muddy. Also just looking to take one dog at a time.

I have never used this service before, always had a neighbour call in. However due to her illness I needed an alternative. After reading the Rover website I decided to give you a try for a short break. I will definitely be using you again. Belle loved Helen on her initial meet up visit. I knew she would get visits at set regular times. Helen even came early following storms to check she was ok. Belle loves company so she would get plenty of this. She loved her strokes and cuddles. If anything was wrong I knew I would be informed. Such as when she was not eating. I could then offer advice. Seeing daily photos of Belle confirmed she was ok and happy. I even thought she would be disappointed when we came home. Thanks again Helen. We will no doubt see you again.

About: Hi, I’m Jane. All my life I lived with dogs and cats but currently can’t afford own pet. My kids are begging to have a dog, that’s why I’m here - it’s a method for my kids to spend time with pets and choose whom they want in the future. I don’t take more than one dog the same time. Also I am strict about feeding and always follow the instructions from the owner. I’m looking forward to meet your 4-paws friend and become his friend as well. Currently I’m working part-time and I have free time to care about pets and the same time enjoy their company. I can take dogs for walks or for a night with us. Also cats are welcome and able to explore my home and even climb on curtains (what some of them like so much). I have a ground floor 3-bedroom flat. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds. My family is very friendly and we have a nice field nearby to take dogs for walks. I always tidy up after and keep my home safe and clean.
