About: Hi, I'm Lauren, I'm 23, a recent Master's graduate who loves running, hill-walking and a cosy movie-night. So, no matter your pet's temperament, I can meet them where they're at! I have had two cats and two dogs growing up, and have spent the last 16 years pet-sitting for neighbours and friends. Having moved away from home, I am absolutely missing having some pets around and so am more than happy to spoil yours! Having had both of my dogs since they were puppies, I have taken part in several puppy-training classes and even managed to get our spaniel to have some decent recall! As I am working from home, I can take pets out for bathroom breaks frequently throughout the day, and am available for ad-hoc calls. I live in a large ground-floor flat, a short walk to Victoria Park and so am happy to spend time throwing a ball around. I have a fenced garden, a smoke-free home and plenty of space for your pet to roam around. We also have a spare bedroom and so if your pet prefers a bit of space, they can chill out on their own terms.
“Kiera and her family took such good care of our dog blue when we were away on a family holiday. It’s so lovely to have a home from home to send your dog to. Highly recommend x”
About: I've had three dogs and two cats throughout my life, and have been a petsitter for a variety of pets for close to a decade. I have taken care of a variety of ages, from puppies to senior dogs, and am experienced in taking care of dogs with medical issues (my own family dog being a medically complex rescue dog). As I now live far from my family dogs, I love any opportunity to care for and hang out with other pets. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet whenever and wherever! I am also great at adjusting my sleep schedule, so should your pet require particularly early walks, late night toilet breaks, and more, I am very capable of accommodating that! While I do not have a designated garden area, I live very near a garden space, so outdoor access remains fairly accessible. I am also fully capable of crating your pet should they require it and can manage any medications they may require!
“Janou did an amazing job looking after our dog. Rocco had a great time staying with Janou, who gave us updates on how Rocco was doing and we felt at ease knowing that our dog was well looked after. Would recommend and thank you Janou!”
About: I’ve taken care of my border collie since I got her at 13 years old! But since moving away from my parents in a new town I’m looking to meet new dogs!!! I’m currently a uni student looking for a little extra cash outside of my studies. Due to missing my own little pet due to just moving to Glasgow I want to spend all my free time with your fur babies ! I care for my pets as if I would my own !! I mainly would prefer if I were to look after your fur baby at your own house however if this was not available my flat is also okay!
About: After sharing four wonderful years with my rescue Greyhound, Ryan, I sadly had to say goodbye to him in May 2026. He was a huge part of my life and is deeply missed. Like many dog owners, I truly believe dogs are family, and Ryan was always included in everything—from relaxing at home to trips to dog-friendly cafés, pubs, and adventures further afield. Living with a rescue Greyhound gave me first-hand experience of the unique personalities and needs of sighthounds. From understanding their gentle, sensitive nature to their love of a good sprint followed by hours of sofa time, I know how important it is to provide them with a calm, safe, and loving environment. I also spent a lot of time training Ryan and regularly attended neutrality classes with his walker and trainer at Tartan Pets, which helped me develop a strong understanding of dog behaviour and positive handling techniques. Alongside caring for Ryan, I’ve looked after the dogs of family, friends, and neighbours, providing walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays for a variety of breeds and personalities. I understand that leaving your dog with someone else requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog is a Greyhound, Whippet, Lurcher, or any other breed, they’ll be treated as one of the family. I’ll give them the same love, patience, attention, and care that I gave Ryan, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re in safe and caring hands! My work schedule offers plenty of flexibility, with my week split between working from home and my local office. Before accepting any booking, I make sure my diary is arranged so your pet has the time, attention, and companionship they deserve. Their care and wellbeing will always be my priority while they’re with me. At weekends, I’m usually out enjoying local parks, relaxing at home, or visiting dog-friendly cafés, pubs, and restaurants, so if your dog enjoys getting out and about, they’ll have plenty of opportunities for walks, fresh air, and quality time together. Whether they prefer an active adventure or a quiet day relaxing, I’ll tailor their routine to suit their needs. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a spacious two-bedroom flat on the third floor (please note there is no lift), providing a calm and relaxed environment where dogs can settle in and feel at home. Outside, there’s a large, fully fenced and gated back court for toilet breaks, and we’re just a short walk from several spacious parks and the River Clyde, offering plenty of opportunities for safe, enjoyable walks and enrichment.
“Lisa was so great with Ziggy. We got lots of photos, messages and updates while we were away and he always looked happy and relaxed. We felt entirely comfortable the whole time that we were away and we would not hesitate to book Lisa again the next time we need someone to watch Ziggy.”
About: Hi! I have 10+ years of experience caring for and training guide dogs, giving me a strong understanding of canine behaviours. I've also dog-sat for friends and family, and love being around dogs of all breeds. Whether your pup needs playtime, training support, or just a cozy companion, I’ll treat them like my own! I work from home 3 days a week and free most weekends! I’m flexible with my schedule and can easily fit in walks, playtime, or overnight stays if need be, making sure your pet gets the attention and care they need. At my home, I have a fenced garden for safe outdoor play and plenty of indoor space for your pet to relax. I can also accommodate a crate if needed. I am based in the Hyndland/Partick area of Glasgow so there is plenty options for walks and bathroom breaks. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll follow any routines or instructions you provide to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for!
“Sophie, looked after my two dogs for an overnight. The two of them were well looked after and Sophie gave us updates. Sophie made sure the dogs were welcomed and that they were settled with her to ensure they got the best of care.”
“Suzi was very well looked after by Alice. She was a very happy wee dog when she came back to us . Alice was great - communication was fast and we knew Suzi was safe and happy. Couldn’t ask for a better service - thank you so much .”
“Michael was a brilliant dog sitter. We left our very shy dog with him for nearly 5 days and she settled in very quickly and well. He was extremely patient and thoughtful in his care of her. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave her with him again.”
“Great experience with Erin, Tanya loved her wee stay, got sent some pics and recieved replies to any message I sent promptly. She was brilliant with Tanya and we would both recommend Erin to anyone and would deffinetly pick her again on ROVER. 👌”
“Absolutely fantastic. Thanos and Hollie were brilliant with Spud. He didn't want to leave😂. Would highly recommend their services and I will hopefully be using again. Thanks again for taking such good care of him 🤘”
“Izzy had a lovely time with Leslie! We are not from the area, and we needed someone to have Izzy for NYE. It was her first time sleeping away from home and Leslie was amazing - very accommodating and understanding of Izzy’s needs as a puppy”
About: We are Lauren and Martin, a couple living in the Woodlands area of Glasgow. We have experience in dog sitting of all ages and mix of breeds. We have both been dog owners but current life doesn't allow us to have a doggo of our own full time, so we thrive on sitting and caring for others when we can. We believe that caring for a dog is good for the mind, body and soul. Dogs are the best! We would love to meet your pooch before agreeing any future care. Martin works from home Monday to Friday, both of us are home at the weekend. Early mornings and late nights are all workable for us. Do contact for short time hourly rate/half day/evening. No transport available. Dogs are welcome in our home, pups included. We have an easy going and calm atmosphere. The flat is 3rd floor however we have secure garden access and green park space directly in front of the flat.
“Idioa kept me updated with daily updates and photos of Tilly which put my mind at ease whilst we were away. Tilly is nervous around others but completely took to Idoia and Nick and enjoyed all the fuss and attention they gave her in our abscence. We came home to very well looked after dog. Would highly recommend and will most certainly be booking again. Thank you 😊”

Shivani is such a lovely person and an amazing pet sitter. She took very good care of my dog, Simba, and she absolutely loved staying with her. She was so happy and comfortable there, which gave me great peace of mind. I’m really happy with the care and attention she gave her and would definitely recommend Shivani to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.
Could not recommend enough! This is the second time Hannah has watched Roly for us and we wouldn’t want him going anywhere else now. She provides regular updates of all the fun things they get up to, and we were able to enjoy our holiday completely without worrying at all. Thank you Hannah! xx
Yaz and Chris looked after Minnie for a week, the longest she's ever been away from us. I was nervous but the updates I received put me at ease straight away. Their house is a zen retreat for dogs, Minnie looked so calm and relaxed. Thanks so much guys, we appreciate all the love and care you gave to our precious fluffy baby. Couldn't recommend them more ❤️
This was Cody’s second time staying overnight with Mia and Molly and he had a great time! They were super accommodating with a last minute request and excited to have him again, which was lovely. They were mindful of his quirks and kept him occupied while out on walks, so he came home nice and sleepy. Thank you!
Erin and her partner very kindly took dougie at short notice and couldn’t have been more accommodating! Very grateful to them both! they have the most fab home& garden, and dougie was very obviously in his element. Huge thank you again ❤️ I would recommend to everyone:)
I would highly recommend Rebecca and Ben and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Great communication and we loved the updates when we were away. They took the time to meet Wooty first which gave us a chance to ask any questions and put our mind at rest. Wooty was a happy and relaxed when he came home. Thank you so much Rebecca and Ben!
Gill was excellent and put our minds at rest every step of the way. We had an initial meeting with Gill and her lovely, cuddly, and VERY friendly dog, Grace, before our holiday. It went very well and we felt confident we had chosen the right person to look after our girl. When we were on holiday, we had regular communication, updates and photos and we knew our girl was in safe hands. It looked like she was having a great time out on walks with Grace and getting lots of cuddles and attention. Would recommend Gill in a heartbeat.

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.
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.

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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
