“Another great autumnal squirrel patrol with Ella! I love the feedback pictures of the two of them enjoying the nice weather and fine views around the city. Hera always looks so happy and contented it leaves me at ease when I’m away at work.”
“Thank you Annie for letting Hera take you for a walk around her favourite stinky spots and introduce you to her snack-dealers in hi-vis! She was very happy when I got home.”
“Sian is incredibly punctual and has excellent communication which I love! Really puts my mind at ease and I have complete faith in her ability to manage my singular funny spaniel! Hera loved her adventure to sniff the cows and is already looking forward to her next play date!”
About: I had a rescue labrador for 10 years and am now keen to help look after other doggos. I have worked in animal rescue centres and been trained on doggie first aid. I'm very calm and gentle with animals, and will be a responsible care giver for your beloved canine. I work from home half-days on Fridays with flexible hours, and am generally free on weekends. I'm very flexible around timing and happy to work around your pet's needs. We have a fenced-in garden and live on a quiet street just off the canal path and near several great fields and walks. Can provide dog beds and are flexible on whether dogs are allowed on furniture.
About: I have my own dogs (Patterdale terriers & jack russel). I have grown up in the farming industry, so I spent my childhood riding horses, running through the fields and playing with the dogs. My dogs are the first thing I look at in the morning and the last thing I I say goodnight to. If I didn’t have dogs, my life would be silent, they create more fun. Im currently studying at uni, i can be flexible for drop in home visits in between of lectures or long breaks. The latest I finish on a Monday and Friday is 6. I do have early morning rugby training(this would only cause inconvenience with overnight stays) as I would have to leave early. Weekends are completely free. Tuesday is free all day with one online lecture in the evening, and Thursday is also free all day with one evening lecture. Wednesday is normally game day,(this can change weekly). Dog walking- I can walk (custom to dog)x a day. I would keep the dog on the lead unless said otherwise by owners, likewise with interacting with other dogs. Drop ins- I can let the dog in the garden, and play for length of time I have free, and top up water and food bowl. Overnight stays- ensure they have been let out before bed, have a little play, and food is eaten.
“It has been an absolute pleasure getting to know Lily. Our nervous beagle,Bailey adores her! Lily is amazing with Bailey and I highly recommend her for both dog walks and doggie sitting 💕”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life with grandparents and uncles owning them. I've had experience with a range of dogs from Yorkshire terriers, to staffies and rottweilers. On numerous occasions I have helped walk them and not afraid of larger dogs. I currently only work weekends so I am free a good chunk of weekdays. I do have university starting up again soon but that is a few days a week for longest 3 hours so I still have lots of free time in the day and evening. At university I am studying Wildlife Conservation so I am very passionate about animals and their wellbeing I have a cat and a tortoise as my own pet as of now. I raised my cat throughout covid so he is my baby and I would do anything to look after him. My tortoise also requires a lot of attention and care so I'm used to putting in hardwork to ensure the comfort of my pets. I also have experience working with a variety of animals as I work on a farm and have also done livestock and lambing volunteering.

About: Hi! I have nearly 10 years of experience working with and caring for rescue dogs, through both volunteering and professional roles in rescues. Having grown up surrounded by cats and dogs, I’ve developed a lifelong passion for animals and their wellbeing. I tailor every walk to your dog’s individual needs—whether it’s a gentle stroll for an elderly pup or one recovering from surgery, energetic playtime for puppies, or simply providing a safe and loving environment while you’re away. (Please note: pet sitting will be in your home, as I have a nervous dog of my own who needs space.) My skills include reading dog body language and caring for dogs with a wide range of temperaments—whether nervous, excitable, anxious, or reactive. I’m confident supporting dogs with behavioural needs such as reactivity toward other dogs, prey drive, and I’m happy to use a muzzle when required. I also have experience helping dogs recover after surgery, providing enrichment suited to their age and breed, and ensuring exercise is always appropriate for their individual needs. In addition, I’m able to administer oral medication or meds given in food (no injections). I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels cared for, comfortable, and happy. Alongside Rover, I also run my own pet care business. While my Rover calendar may show availability, some time slots may already be booked by existing private clients. I always keep my calendar as up to date as possible and will confirm availability promptly once a request is made. I’m available most days, mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’ll happily fit walks or visits around your pet’s usual routine to keep them settled and happy Your pet’s safety comes first. I respect your home, follow instructions closely, secure environments, and provide gentle, attentive care so pets feel safe and happy.

I'm currently out of work to persue personal projects so have some free time to help out during the weeks. I don't have any immediate plans but will adjust where possible if needed.

About: My whole life I have always loved animals, I have one dog, two cats and one rabbit. In my spare time i volunteer at my horse riding stables for the RDA which I have done for over a year now. I have just completed my first year of university at Hartpury which I am studying animal behaviour and welfare, my university also has a large variety of animals which I volunteer to help care for on the weekends. As my pets have unfortunately had a variety of illnesses and injury’s I am confident in giving any medication necessary for any animals, both of my rabbits require medication for their arthritis everyday, one of which strongly dislikes it so I am used to safely handling more sensitive animals. I do a lot of dog walking in my university term breaks for dogs with a variety of needs such as, young active dogs who require a lot of play, or dogs that need more space from others or have certain triggers I help avoid. I am a university student on summer break as doing this as my full time work so will have lots of free time to provide the best possible care for your pets! I do multiple dog walks daily as well as caring for my elderly rabbit and two cats. In my own home I have four pets, a golden retriever, two cats and one rabbit. They all love each other and are happy to share my garden together. Inside my house all my pets know they are welcome in any room in my house but are all toilet trained. They all have their separate private spaces if they need time alone which the other animals will not interrupt.

Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Gloucester
Amber was nothing but fantastic with George, they truly loved each other, and she's a natural with dogs. She also befriended the other dog in the house, Arthur, who also loved her. I had no worries that George was in the safest hands and wouldn't hesitate to use Amber again.
David was professional and efficient as well as being very friendly. Lola liked him very much and so did I. I have used him twice now and he was punctual on both occasions. Sat in my house with Lola for a day and left everything clean and tidy as he found it. I will have no hesitation in using him again.
Sarah is absolutely fantastic, Ruby got slightly hurt and she was wonderful, called me to explain everything, sent me pictures of the issue, try to find solutions and took her to the vet while we were away making sure she was cared for and ok Ruby is thankfully absolutely fine now, and we are forever grateful for Sarah's help making sure Ruby was ok, knowing we can trust her with our girl is invaluable 💜💜
Safie was absolutely fabulous! We are new to the area and in a bit of a pickle, she put us at ease in our meet and greet, was fantastic at communicating with us and was fantastic with our two dogs. She kept us informed during the walk with photos and a little report. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back to use her again
I have used Dhaara a couple of times at short notice. She went out of her way to get to know our dog and us. Cooper is a young full of life male dog but Dhaara knew exactly how to handle him. She is absolutely amazing and would definitely book her again. Highly recommended.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Gloucester. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.
