“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.”
“Paige is AMAZING! She bonded with my cat Zaya instantly and took care of her as if she were her own. She followed every instruction, understood exactly what Zaya needed, and even managed to brush her — a miracle in itself. She looked after my flat beautifully too, spotting a problem with the electric toilet and fixing it right away. I loved the constant updates and photos; it made being away so much easier. Paige’s passion for animals is obvious, and her care goes above and beyond. I trust her completely and have already rebooked her. Truly an outstanding cat sitter and a wonderful person. Thank you, Paige, for taking such amazing care of my precious Zaya. You’re an absolute star.”
About: Hi, I’m Martina, a caring and reliable pet sitter with six years of experience looking after both dogs and cats. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I do everything I can to help them feel safe, relaxed and well cared for. I always take the time to get to know their routine, personality and little quirks, and I’ll carefully follow any instructions you leave. I’m particularly comfortable with rescue dogs and dogs who need a bit of extra patience. My own dog, Bob, is a Romanian rescue with reactivity issues, so I understand how important it is to recognise triggers, keep walks calm, respect boundaries and adapt to each dog’s needs. I also share my home with Ray, my beautiful long-haired cat and, of course, tiny prince of my world! I know cats often need a gentler approach: patience, respect for their space and attention to the small signs that tell you how they’re feeling. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, a drop-in visit, some company while you’re away or care in their own home, I’ll look after them with the same kindness and attention I give my own pets. I’m also happy to send updates, messages and photos, so you can relax knowing how your pet is doing. My aim is simple: for your pet to feel happy and comfortable, and for you to feel completely at ease. I’m a freelance translator, so I have a flexible schedule and can fit pet care around my working hours. I’m able to arrange walks, drop-in visits and house sitting with plenty of flexibility, and I can often accommodate different routines and schedules. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s needs and find a schedule that works well for everyone. I have six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including pet sitting for friends and family. I’m also a cat owner and have experience caring for a rescue dog with reactivity issues, so I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines and needs. I’m confident with walks, feeding, playtime, litter care and keeping pets comfortable and safe.
“As my boy Picasso is very shy and can't trust people easily! I had Linah for the second time for him and he is very comfortable and being himself with her. She takes responsibility to do what your cat needs and follows instructions carefully. Also she reports ever single detail and post many photos while she is visiting your cat and makes you have a relaxing holiday or while you are away for whatever reasons. Would definitely choose her again for Picasso ☺️🌹 thank you Linah.”
“Gemma has been checking in on Tootsie for the past few weeks when I've been out at work. Tootsie is well looked after, and the updates Gemma sends are thorough, photos are funny too. Already have Gemma booked again for this month. Highly recommend”
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a kid . 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.
About: Hi! I'm a caring, reliable and enthusiastic animal lover who understands that pets are part of the family. 🐾 As a dog owner to Neeps and a cat owner to Milo, I understand how important it is to make sure our pets feel safe, happy and loved. Caring for my own pets has given me experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, enrichment and understanding different personalities and needs. I'm patient, attentive and happy to adapt to each pet's individual routine, whether they love long sniffy walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles or a little extra time to settle in. I understand the importance of responsible pet care, keeping dogs secure on walks and respecting each animal's boundaries. I'd love to help give your pets the attention, exercise and companionship they deserve while giving you peace of mind that they're in caring hands. ❤️ I'm currently not working, which means I have plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to caring for your pets! 🐾 I'm available for dog walking, drop-in visits and pet sitting, with the ability to discuss times that suit your pet's usual routine. I can offer companionship, playtime, feeding and walks throughout the week, as well as weekend availability. I'll always do my best to accommodate your pet's individual needs and keep you updated while you're away. As a dog mum to Neeps and a cat mum to Milo, I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable and well cared for. ❤️ I take a patient, responsible approach and will follow your instructions carefully, including feeding routines, walking preferences, medication instructions where appropriate and any behavioural needs. I'll make sure dogs are kept secure on walks, pets are supervised appropriately and your home is treated with respect during visits. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other and your pet can become comfortable with me.
“Jade took fantastic care of our retriever Cooper. A wee meet and greet before was a great idea and Cooper really warmed to her. We are very happy with the care received from Jade for Cooper, and really appreciated the photo updates and check up info. We would definitely ask Jade to watch Cooper again ❤️ thank you!”
About: Southside based. We both grew up around family dogs. We have looked after cockapoos and Weimaraners. Dog sitter for extended family. We’d love to have our own dog but thought this would be the perfect alternative. We love nothing more than a cosy night in or a nice long walk, we have plenty parks available to visit. We both work full time however there is always someone working from home. We work full time however there is always someone working from home. We are also flexible with work so able to let dogs out to the toilet We have an unfenced communal garden with friendly dogs and plenty of parks within walking distance.

About: Hiii I’m Gianna! I work in a Pet shop on Hyndland Street (The Partick Pet Food co) so I have experience in different pet needs and ways to help. I have also taken care of a variety of pets including dogs, cats, hamsters, turtles and fishes. My neighbours and family also trusts me with pet sitting duty all the time. Feeding, brushing, walking and playing are my best skills. I have also fostered two puppies for a few weeks 4 years ago, such a great experience. I am currently a Biomedical Science student at university so I will have loads of time that can be dedicated to your fur babies. Fun walks every time!! I currently work at a pet shop in Partick (The Partick Pet Food co) where I have hands-on experience in caring for animals and a strong understanding of pet health and nutrition. I’m confident in providing safe and attentive care! I live in a flat near big parks that I can easily access (e.g Botanics Garden, Kelvingrove Park etc) I also bake and cook so if allowed, homemade snacks! I also provide daily photo & video updates.
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.
“Benjamin was very attentive and took great care of my cat, Micia, when I was away on holiday. Regular updates and photos were provided ensuring me that Micia was in good hands and her usual self!”
“Cannot recommend Yingyi enough!! She helped me last min checking in on Athena. She was very attentive to Athena and her routine - she made sure she had her treat, cuddles, a pee, a little walk, water and was settled in for the night. She provided me with a lovely, detailed update and pictures which put my mind at ease! Athena was so settled and happy when I got home!”
About: Coming from a family with different breeds of dogs, I’m well versed with both young and mature dogs while being able to understand their needs and attend to each dog accordingly. From dogs that have severe anxiety to the biggest, most playful fluff ball I love them all. Having lived with dogs for years I have no issue with overnight dog care for periods of time and can accommodate appropriate walk and play durations well. Although I work full time I work from home 1/2 of the week and those days are flexible. I’m an early riser so dog walking around the working day is no trouble. I love the outdoors and spend as much time as possible out in the local parks walking or running, going for coffee at the weekend, so dog care fits perfectly here. Living in a flat I have no fenced garden but do have communal green space which I use. My flat is already pet friendly, with nothing around that would cause any danger to dogs likely. In the flat dogs are free to roam free, and are not restricted to crates. Out in public I keep dogs on leads at all times and would never leave a dog tied up alone outside a shop etc. in
“Amrita was able to fulfil an extended booking on fairly short notice. She was able to bond well with a cat that is not particularly fond of strangers, and I returned home to a happy pet. She was also able to complete a couple of minor tasks while I was away and left the place clean and as hair free as possible.”
“Rhea was fantastic! She showed up right on time, handled our big, energetic dog like a pro, and was super kind and caring. We’ll definitely be asking her to help again, highly recommend!”
“Emma took fantastic care of my Sasha while I was away. She sent regular updates and photos, and it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable my cat was with her. Emma is friendly, caring, and clearly loves animals. I would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive cat sitter. I'll definitely be booking Emma again in the future! Thank you so much 😊”

Danielle was an excellent sitter for Charley and Monkey She handled Charley really well, who can be reactive to other dogs and Monkey who needs medication. Danielle was excellent at communicating with me about how her visits went. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again
It’s was amazing having Chelsea check in on our kittens while we were away for a few days. She went over and above - moving our plants out of harms way from the little nibblers - and keeping us up to date with everything that was going on at home. Would highly recommend and will definitely use Chelsea again (if she’ll have us!!) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you so much Tamika, what a lifesaver <3 You're the best! I had an unplanned journey and had less than 24 hours to find a dogsitter for my collies and luckily Tamika answered the request. Her communication was excellent and she is clearly very experienced with dogs. Davey and Rosy absolutely loved her from from the get go. Her calm energy relaxed them instantly (something which is doesn't always happen when they meet new people). She was there to let me know everything was all good when I checked in. Thanks so much Tamika so grateful for you!!
Valeriia and Yuliia were brilliant pet sitters for Flo! They were so punctual & communicated with us both during and after their visit so we knew Flo was looked after well. She’s got allergies and they made sure they asked lots of questions about this during the meet & greet too - our minds were truly at rest! We’d absolutely use Valieriia & Yuliia again and 100% recommend! ⭐️
Lucas is the best sitter you and your cat(s) could wish for: kind, reliable and very good at communicating when you’re away, Lucas does not only look after your cat(s) brilliantly. He also offers to do things of his own initiative, which is very helpful and puts your mind at ease when you’re not at home. We will definitely see him again! Thank you Lucas!
Kirsteen looked after my cats, Pearl and Parker, for two days and was absolutely fantastic. She kept me updated with photos and little check‑ins on how they were doing, They were very well cared for and content. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

FAQs for Pet Sitting – Glasgow
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Glasgow is £15 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £10 and £22 per Visit.
On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,819 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across the city of Glasgow. About 85% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.
Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
Yes. There are up to 1,819 pet sitters offering care in and around Glasgow. To find a sitter who is available during your working hours, enter your address, select the days and time slots when you need care, and review matching local profiles.
Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.
You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.
Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.
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 must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
