“We had a fantastic experience with Paige. She took great care of our two cats and kept us fully at ease while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout, and she sent plenty of photos so we always knew they were happy and relaxed. We had to stay longer away and she accommodated the request. We came home to two very content cats and everything in perfect order. Highly recommended, we’d happily book with her again.”

“This was my first time leaving Roxy at home. We have only had her for 8 maths. Danielle was fabulous, sending updates and pictures at each visit. It really put us at ease. We could see from pictures that Roxy was fine and had cuddles and play time. Had hoped to use Danielle's services again in August but unavailable. We will definitely look out for her again in the future. One happy cat makes her people happy 😊😁😁😁😁”


“Taisa was an absolutely fantastic cat sitter. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, keeping us updated with lovely messages and brilliant photos that really put our minds at ease. Elio clearly adored her and looked so relaxed and comfortable in her care, which says everything. She looked after him incredibly well, and it was obvious he was getting lots of attention and affection. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Taisa again and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable cat sitter.”

“Lucy was amazing with our little rescue cat. He is incredibly nervous of new people and mostly hid during her visits (very normal for him!) but she explained her gentle and patient approach at our meet and greet and left a detailed description of each of her visits, which was so reassuring! Buzz actually felt confident enough during Lucy’s second visit to stay in his bed and watch her from a distance (he usually makes a quick dash out of the room to find a better hiding spot). I have full trust and confidence in Lucy and will absolutely use her services again. Thank you!! Xx”


“Isabelle helped us very last minute with our reactive dog and we couldn’t have asked for any better! She came round to meet our dog multiple times before dog sitting to ensure he was comfortable with her and then sent lots of updates when we were away. Our dog took to Isabelle very well and it was clear she had a lot of care for him. We can’t thank you enough!”

I always take the time to understand each pet’s personality and routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I keep owners updated with photos and messages after every visit, and I treat every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. have a flexible schedule and I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, including weekends. I can provide dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s usual routine whenever possible. My goal is to make every visit calm, enjoyable, and stress-free for both pets and their owners. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my priority. I carefully follow your instructions, keep dogs on a lead unless you request otherwise, and respect your pet’s routine.

“Jokha is very friendly and easy to communicate with, my cat socks loved his visits he was well cared for and had loads of play and affection time, l have come home to a very happy boy”

“Cameron took care of Raggie for 4 consecutive days. He took him for a walk and made sure he ate his food. He was efficient and considerate and sent lots of detailed reports and photos! Raggie loved him! I was especially concerned because Raggie is reactive with male dogs sometimes, but everything went really smoothly. Thank you, Cameron!”

About: With 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to pet care. What sets me apart from other caregivers is my lifelong exposure to animals. Since I can remember, I've been raised with pets, allowing me to develop a deep understanding of their needs and behavior. This experience ensures that I can provide attentive and compassionate care to all pets, ensuring their well-being and happiness while under my supervision. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet care seamlessly into my daily or weekly routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, or spending quality time with pets, I can adjust my schedule to meet their needs effectively. In my home or at the pet owner's house, safety and trust are my top priorities. Depending on the service offered, I ensure pets are in a secure environment where they feel comfortable and loved. With my boyfriend and me both being raised with animals, our home is a safe space where pets receive the care and attention they deserve.

About: Hi, I’m Sophia, a 22-year-old student at the University of Glasgow! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always had a strong love for animals. Our family dog was a German Shepherd cross, so I’m comfortable around larger breeds as well as smaller dogs. After he passed away, my family and I began dog sitting and caring for many dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Since moving to Glasgow for university, I’ve really missed having dogs around, so I decided to get back into dog sitting and dog walking. I’ve absolutely loved being able to spend more time with animals again and getting to know each pet’s unique personality. While I have plenty of experience with dogs, I’m also a huge cat lover and really enjoy spending time with cats of all ages and temperaments. I’ve even befriended many of the neighbourhood cats near me! I am a university student about to start my final year of an integrated master’s degree. My schedule is flexible outside of lectures and study time, and I can plan my day around pet care. I am available for regular toilet breaks, walks, feeding, and attention throughout the day depending on the booking. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I stick to their usual routine, pay close attention to their individual needs, and make sure they’re never left in unsafe situations. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re getting on.

About: I have a Bichon Frise of my own and have been raising him for over ten years. I’ve also looked after dogs for friends on many occasions. I like dogs since I was a child, so I genuinely understand how much pets mean to their owners. I am a student in summer vacation, so I am generally available most of the time as long as I am informed in advance. especially free in the afternoon everyday I usually walk dogs twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Besides basic feeding and walks, I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you may have
“Robyn was great with my two cats while I was away! She was very consistent and reliable and I looked forward to receiving her thorough updates every day. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: Hey! I'm Shauna. I've had animals all my life, from dogs and cats to birds and rodents. I'm fascinated by wildlife and the small creatures of our planet. Growing up I would collect insects, make an enclosure and watch them for days in my room, as well as attempting to save poor little song birds that had often been injured by larger birds or cats. My realisation for my love for animals came when I'd help out at my local stables with the horses from a very young age. I'd help brush, bathe and ride them for a walk, and from then my passion grew like wild ivy. I loved the responsibility of walking and training my dogs, and I would also walk friends and neighbours dogs in my spare time. In 2019 I began volunteering as a veterinary care assistant where I learned valuable knowledge and skills which furthered my passion of caring for animals, and after two years of dedicated unpaid work I was finally officially employed as a veterinary care assistant. I spent some years in this role but some life circumstances sent me on another journey to work in a pet shop, and finally a doggy daycare. I love working in the daycare, I'm very dedicated to all of our pups and love to make sure they have a great day. But I feel my time with them is never enough, so I've chosen to do walking and dog sitting during my time off. My whole existence centres around dogs and I can't imagine a better time spent with any other being! I currently work in a doggy daycare, 4 out of 7 days. I am able to provide my services from 7pm weekdays, and have full availability Saturday, Sunday and Monday. You're welcome to create a schedule as I prefer to have a clean cut routine. In general, dogs will be walked 2x a day, though I am happy to offer 3x as I always recommend 3 walks for dogs. I will never give treats unless you say it is ok, as I know how important it can be to follow a strict diet for some dogs. I always encourage play with dogs but please know I won't push boundaries if the dog is not interested. I know we all love to see our babies playing but sometimes it just isn't for them and that's okay. Your dog will always be kept on the lead, unless there is a specific enclosed park that your dog is familiar with, and you and I are both confident in your dogs recall.
About: Hi, I'm Ryan! I'm a remote worker with a lifelong love of dogs. I've cared for dogs of all kinds throughout my life, from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. I'm comfortable handling various breeds and personalities, and I'm always happy to learn about your dog's unique needs. I'm excited to provide a safe and loving environment for your pet while you're away. * I do not take in last minute overnight bookings (requests that are made on the same day as the stay). If they have a fixed schedule (walks, meals), please let me know. Sticking to your pet's 'normal' as much as possible will provide a comfortable 'holiday' for them with us. My partner and I live in a secure, pet-friendly flat in the city centre. Our flat is free of children and other pets, ensuring your dog receives dedicated attention. We maintain a clean and safe space, keeping any potential hazards out of reach. We also try to only have one dog/ dogs from the same household one at a time w us, this is to ensure they get the maximum care and attention.
About: I had a dog and looked after my friend's and neighbour's dogs before for years. Surprisingly, most of the dogs I had spent time with were good boys! Recently, I looked after my previous flatmate's dog who requires special care e.g. scared of loud noise and kids. As a full-time professional, I’m available to care for dogs on weekends and bank holidays—perfect for those who need a trusted carer during their time away. Locations in the city center, West End, or anywhere easily accessible by subway suit me best. I ensure each dog gets the care and attention they deserve! I live in a rental flat where dogs are not permitted, so I’m unable to offer overnight care at my place. However, I’m more than happy to look after dogs during the day or take them for walks outside—it’s no problem at all!
About: I am a 3rd year Veterinary Student at the Univeristy of Glasgow. I've been passionate and around animals all my life and will forever prioritise them. I've rode horses when I was younger for six years, had rodents as pets, and have a springer spaniel at home currently. I've been on many weeks of placement for my vet degree which covered all aspects of animals care, I have done 3 weeks at a kennels and cattery as well as many other weeks with different species. I am very flexible during summer so I am available to do weekdays and weekends. This will be until September. Once term starts it will be limited to weekends with the occasional weekday here and there depending on my schedule. I will only care for pets at the owners home as I live in a flat that does not allow pets in it unfortunately. I will follow instructions carefully and make sure their routine is kept the same to make sure your furry friend is kept happy and safe.
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a wee guy. I’ve also owned several throughout my life. I’m good with training and I’m quite strong so can easily handle dogs. Also got experience with my aunts senior dog and know they may need medicine and a bit extra help. Currently working from home so plenty of time on my hands. I enjoy the outdoors so figured this would be the best way to spend my extra free time. I’ve got a big back garden, lots of space, I’m happy having pets up on my bed or on the sofa but also know how important it is to keep routine so I’ll go with your instructions and keep that going.
“Christiana is incredibly friendly, easy to communicate with and extra helpful. I trust that my cat Leeloo is safe in Christiana’s hands, and Leeloo likes her, so that’s the seal of approval!”


About: Had pets my whole life back in Spain, which I miss terribly. I've trained dogs since they were puppies and raised them all the way until the bitter end. Now, here in Scotland, I miss my family's dog terribly so a friend referred me to this app. I absolutely love dogs and cats and I hope I can offer your dog(s) lots of love, treats, and long walks. I'm currently working part-time and I like to keep active, so I look forward to long walks and playtime. I'm fairly flexible so feel free to get in touch and let me know if a time is unavailable on the app but you'd be interested in the service regardless! If I'm visiting, please know that I'm a very respectful person when it comes to other people's homes. I'll keep clean and organised, as if none had even been there and I'm very happy to hear of any specific rules in place. Our home has plenty of blankets and a massive couch at your pet's disposal, and I live very close to the Kelvingrove Park so I can give them lots of walks! We live in a warm and cozy flat, and if we have any furry visitors, they won't be left alone under any circumstances, but instead they'll be cozied up wherever they fancy, while I'm always ready for playtime!
“Aleksandra really helped me out when my usual cat sitter cancelled on me a few days before Christmas! So professional, and my cats were happy and relaxed when I returned Thank you so much!!! 😊”

Pati was brilliant from start to finish - first introduction was easy and lovely to meet, followed by daily photos and messages while we were away. She went above and beyond when Harris started to show signs of a cough, and we can’t thank her enough for her care of our boy. Well hopefully book again! Thanks Pati 🐈⬛❤️

Danielle looked after our cat for 3 weeks and can say she is really wonderful carer, worried about her and always kept us updated about every visit and details of our Sansa. We felt relief seeing photos from every visit. Sansa is shy and when she dows not know someone she tries to hide but with Danielle Sansa was totally different and shared a wonderful relationship.

Taisa was an absolutely fantastic cat sitter. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, keeping us updated with lovely messages and brilliant photos that really put our minds at ease. Elio clearly adored her and looked so relaxed and comfortable in her care, which says everything. She looked after him incredibly well, and it was obvious he was getting lots of attention and affection. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Taisa again and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable cat sitter.

Robyn looked after my cat Morphy for the first time last week. She came round to meet him before hand and did a great job of looking after him. I got lots of photos when we were away, and I could see Morph was really relaxed, happy and playful with Robyn. I would definitely book Robyn again and recommend her. Morphy can be quite shy and skittish but he enjoyed his visits and play time.

Amy was so lovely and took such good care of my two cats! All of her updates were so lovely to see and my cats seemed really comfortable with her which says a lot because they can be very timid ! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter and will be booking with her again !

Aideen is super friendly, reliable and professional. Nothing was a bother for her, and she kept me updated regularly with comments and photos, and you can just tell Monty was well looked after! She also left my flat in an immaculate condition, it was lovely to come home to. I will definitely be booking in with Aideen next time I need a sitter! Thank you :)

Thank you so much, Lauren, for taking such wonderful care of Tato! Lauren is very reliable, caring, and friendly. She made us feel completely at ease from the very beginning, and it was clear that Tato was in great hands. We loved receiving all the funny and adorable photos and updates while we were away. It was obvious that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with our cat. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you again!

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.
Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Glasgow 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 Glasgow 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.

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.
