“Rebecca has been absolutely amazing, and after rebooking her for a second time, I can say with complete confidence that she is wonderful. My cat, Smudge, absolutely loves her, and both experiences with her have been excellent. She takes such great care of Smudge and always makes sure he is happy, comfortable, and well looked after. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he is in such caring and capable hands. She keeps me updated, and it is clear that she genuinely cares for the animals she looks after. What makes Rebecca truly special is that she goes above and beyond. She not only looked after Smudge beautifully, but she also fed the stray cats that come to my window, as well as the squirrels and birds. I am so, so happy with the experience and incredibly grateful to have found someone as reliable, caring, and trustworthy as Rebecca. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog/cat sitter.”
“Emma was amazing! It was my first time using Rover and wasn’t sure what to expect, but Emma made it a great experience. She had great communication, gave daily updates and provided some really lovely photos for us to look at. I would highly recommend Emma to friends and would definitely choose her again. Thank you! x”
“Judit looked after my two indoor cats for 3 weeks and I couldn't recommend a better catsitter. She was amazing, communicating regularly and sending pictures and updates, and made sure to meet not just their basic needs but to go above and beyond in giving them fuss and attention and making them feel loved while I was away. Thank you, Judit! ”
“Sarah is super calm and relaxed, our rescue dog Hazel is a bit anxious around new people but Sarah put her at ease and looked after her for us with plenty of updates and photos. Thanks so much Sarah! xx”
“Wendy was lovely, very professional and accommodating. I really appreciated the updates on visits and photos of my pet. It was good to know my cat was in safe hands. I'll for sure be relying on Wendy again!”
“I highly recommend Donna; first of all she is absolutely lovely, and she took great care of our kitties. We got photos and updated for every visit which we really appreciated and have already asked her to cat sit for us again :) ”

About: I’ve taken care of a range of different dog breeds ranging from large to small. Some of these dogs have been nervous or reactive to other dogs as well as some with people. :) I am currently completing a PhD focusing on cancer research so I am fairly flexible during the week and available the majority of weekends. I would love to meet your doggies 😊 I have a 6 foot fenced garden all the way around expect for the neighbours which is about 3/4 foot. The garden is fairly big with space to play fetch.

I currently work full time, but have Thursday and Sundays off with the chance of finishing the rest of the days at 15:30pm. From Thursday to Sunday I can board the dogs from 5pm. I have a large outdoor space at the back of my flat which is perfect for dogs to safely enjoy freedom, playtime, exercise, and relaxation. I will provide a calm, caring, and secure environment where pets feel comfortable and well looked after. We have space in the flat for a crate if this is what your dog needs.

About: I have had dogs all my life and since I lost mine last year and I’m not ready for another just yet, I have many friends that trust me looking after their pets while on holiday.

If they need to be in a crate no problem but also I’m happy for them to be in my furniture and on my bed. I’m happy if they are happy
About: Since being a little girl, I have found so much peace being among animals. I have owned nearly every furry under the sun (dogs, cats, rabbits, guineas, mice, hamsters and more!) and love the unique personality each animal has. I have a soft spot for rescues, most of my pets have been strays and love being able to show them that the world can be a good place with the right people in it! A few years of my working life was spent in a kennels and cattery, and have recently been running a Nature School for children, where we explore and care for wildlife, animals and the world around us. It has been great to pass on my love for the animal world, to the next generation. All ages and stages of life are welcome, from pups and kittens, right through to the OAPs - and the care I offer is tailored to each animal as an individual. I will ensure I follow your instructions and care plan to ensure everyone is as happy as they can be. I've spent my entire life working with animals and children - and yes maybe you do need to be a little crazy to do that! But I do thoroughly enjoy the chaos and pure love they bring everyday. I'd be honoured to care for your beloved pets, and give you peace of mind for when you can't be there. From July, I will be working from home, so can offer the flexibility you desire. I have my children's school run twice a day, so have ample time between 9am and 3.30pm to accommodate your furry friends. I will also be available most evenings for later visits and walks if required. Weekends I can also be flexible. My large car can fit any size dog in, so can drive to green spaces for walks if desired! I have a large tiered garden, consisting of artificial turf, a bark area and decking. The house is a detached 3 bed, with 2 downstairs sitting areas, so your pets have plenty to of space to choose where they feel most comfortable.During warm weather, dogs can access an outdoor animal friendly paddling pool, and our outside space has plenty of trees to provide natural shade and a cooler temperature.
About: I have years of experience looking after pets, I grew up around cats and dogs and even looked after a family friends tortoise when they went on holiday. Nowadays I have my own cat and dog who I love and take care of every aspect of their lives, from playtime, walkies, litter trays, feeding, and administering medication. I also have experience working on a farm and assisting with looking after the farmyard animals and am attuned to their unique needs and feeding schedules. I am currently studying at university full time so I have plenty of free time to help with walks or check-ins. I keep my calendar up to date and on my days off and weekends I am flexible I take your guidelines very seriously and your pets safety is my priority. I will ensure that your dog is kept on the lead at all times and maintain good road safety. I make sure to keep them away from other dogs. I will ensure there are no escape routes from the garden when letting your cat/dog outside and that the house is secure so they cannot get into rooms they shouldn’t have access to. I keep your pets in my sight at all times and can provide updates for you.
“Yi-Fan was absolutely lovely and provided a professional service in taking care of my beloved cat with daily updates. I was super impressed with how my Charles was at ease with them when they interacted (normally, she doesn't like strangers). This reassured me immensely for future bookings. Thanks, Yi-Fan!”

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Gedling
I'm grateful to Judit for dropping in to check on Mimi, my cat. Judith stayed the whole one hour and took care to ensure all instructions about her food and care were followed. She is really easy to talk with and coordinate things. I felt assured and comfortable leaving Mimi in Judit's company. I would certainly recommend Judit to look after your cat.
Linda, Looked after Jasper perfectly, keeping us up to date with photos and messages. We were very pleased with the attention and care which Linda gave to Jasper. We would thoroughly recommend Linda and would definitely choose for Jasper to be looked after by Linda again.
Delia was amazing with my cat, Ozzy. He is naturally an introvert (so much that his presence for strangers might be felt only by disappearing food and litter box getting full), but Delia managed to give him some fuss and lovely stroking. I received regular updates and my pet was well taken care of. I will be definitely using Delia’s service next time when I go on holidays!

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.
