Suraj was wonderful with our cocker spaniel. From the moment he entered the house he put Berry at ease and they got on really well. Suraj sent lots of photo updates and I felt totally secure knowing Berry was well looked after - we will definitely be rebooking!

Thomas and Zoe are fantastic sitters! We have two big, stubborn doggies including a rescue and they were both very happy when we returned, our apartment was well taken care of too. They are great communicators which is very important to us, and we were kept updated with lovely pictures- all of our dog’s routines were kept to perfectly. They were flexible through some changes in plans and we will definitely be using them again. We are grateful we found such trustworthy people!

About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for a wide variety of animals, from cats and dogs to birds, fish, lizards, tortoises, and guinea pigs. Growing up surrounded by pets taught me how to understand different personalities and needs, and I always treat every animal like part of the family. Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or quiet company, I make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m flexible and available any day of the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or last-minute help, I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pets get the care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I make sure every space is clean, secure, and free of hazards, and I always follow your care instructions closely. Whether it’s keeping doors and gates safely closed, monitoring for signs of stress, or maintaining a calm, positive atmosphere, I create an environment where your pets can feel relaxed and happy.

About: After having my own dog for 16 years and having recently had to say goodbye to her, I miss the company of dogs so much! I used to be a sitter on Rover regularly during uni and loved it, and now I’m in a position to start it again, and I’d love to be able to help look after your pet! :) I have a very flexible schedule so I’m able to dedicate all hours of the day / night to spending time with the dogs :) my area is very dog friendly so there’s lots of opportunities for walks as well. My house has a large fenced garden, I live with my mum who also loves dogs, with plenty of company and cuddles available :) it’s a quiet and relaxed household where I am sure happy your dog will love and feel comfy in! I’m willing to travel to pick up your pet from different areas if needed Currently I am very flexible work-wise, so when I have a booking to look after your pet I’m able to prioritise that and look after them around the clock! My garden is fenced and secured as well as a front gate which will be closed, the road outside is very quiet too. When we go for walks I always keep them on the lead. I always make sure to stay with your pet and give them lots of cuddles so they learn to build trust with me :)

She is polite, respectful. My nervous dog really took to her and she had patience to win her round. I received daily updates. She left my house clean, tidy and my dog was obviously well cared for and happy while I was away as once she was over the excitement of us coming home she went and laid back down. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again.

About: Growing up with dogs has been one of the best parts of my life. Some of my earliest memories are filled with me walking the dog with my mum and the happiness it bought us. I'm currently a University student in my third year, I'm only at University on Monday and Wednesday between 12pm-3pm. Other than that I am completely free and have a very flexible schedule I have a fenced back garden, so when the dog needs to go out, it will be completely safe. On walks the dog will mostly be on a leash just to avoid any unforeseen circumstances

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life, having had cats since childhood and, more recently, my own much-loved dog. I’ve also regularly cared for pets belonging to friends and family, so I understand just how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy and genuinely cared for while you’re away. My own dog had epilepsy, so I have experience caring for a pet with additional needs, including administering medication and keeping a close eye on their wellbeing. This has made me particularly patient, attentive and comfortable following specific care routines. Having recently lost my own dog, I really miss that special companionship, which is one reason I’ve decided to offer pet sitting. I have plenty of love, cuddles and attention to give! Whether your pet loves company and affection, enjoys their own space, needs medication or simply likes their routine kept just the way they know it, I’ll treat them with the same kindness and care I would give my own. ❤️ I run my own online business from home, which gives me lots of flexibility and means I can work from your home too – all I need is an internet connection. This allows me to be around during the day to keep your pets company, give them plenty of attention and maintain their usual routine. Until recently, I had my own much-loved dog, who sadly passed away a couple of months ago. I really miss having an animal around and would love the opportunity to spend time caring for other people’s pets. Whether your dog needs regular walks, cuddles and company throughout the day, or your cats simply need someone around to feed them, play with them and give them affection (on their terms, of course!), I can be very flexible around their individual needs. I know how reassuring it is to have someone genuinely present with your pets while you’re away, rather than simply popping in and out, and I’m very happy to give them the time, companionship and care they’re used to. ❤️ I mainly offer pet sitting in your own home, as I believe many pets are happiest and most settled when they can stay in their familiar surroundings and keep to their normal routine while their owners are away. I’m very happy to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication and bedtime routines, as well as giving them plenty of company, cuddles, playtime and attention. As I work online, I can work from your home with an internet connection, which means I can be there for much of the day rather than leaving your pet alone for long periods. Every pet is different, so I’ll always take the time to understand their personality, routine and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including pets who need regular medication. For small dogs, I may also be able to offer care in my flat, where I work from home and can provide regular walks and toilet breaks. However, my preference is caring for pets in their own home, where they can feel safe, comfortable and relaxed while you’re away.

About: I’ve loved cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up with a cocker spaniel who was my best friend for 14 years sparked my passion for pet care. Since then, I’ve happily cared for many dogs belonging to friends and family, and I’m currently a proud cat parent to two unique cats each with their own personalities, routines, and quirks. Whether it’s energetic walks, calm cuddles, or keeping up with feeding and medication schedules, I always adapt to whatever your pet needs to feel comfortable and loved. I recently moved to Wainscott from Margate, and I’m really missing the joy of being around dogs every day! While I share my home with my two cats, I’d love to bring some tail wags and dog energy back into my life. I’m reliable, gentle, and genuinely enjoy building bonds with every animal I meet. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like part of the family. I work a 9–5 schedule with an hour lunch break, which gives me time for morning visits or walks before work, quick check-ins during lunch, and evening care after hours. I especially enjoy early morning walks - it’s one of my favourite ways to start the day! I’m available on weekends and can be flexible with timing outside of my work hours to make sure your pet gets the attention they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your pet’s usual routine, whether that includes feeding times, walks, medications, or specific house rules. I’m respectful of your space, tidy, and always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language and needs, and I aim to build trust through calm, consistent care.

David was very well prepared and completely comfortable looking after our St Bernard Arthur. He kept us up to date on how Arthur and our 2 cats were getting on. Arthur takes daily meds which were all taken care of. I would happily reccomend David for any future requirements. 100% happy with the service.

About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and absolutely love spending time with them. Growing up with a dog has taught me how different each one is, and I really enjoy getting to know their individual personalities. When I was younger, I even started a little dog walking business in my local area because I loved any excuse to spend more time with dogs! I have These days, I regularly look after friends' and family's dogs whenever they need a hand, whether that's for walks, overnight stays, or just keeping them company. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, so I'll always make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. I'll treat your dog like they're one of my own, so you can relax knowing they're in safe hands. I have had experience caring for elderly dogs, dogs who have just undergone serious medical procedures and puppies, so I have a range of experience that allows me to provide the right care for your friend. I have a flexible schedule thanks to my zero-hour hospitality job, meaning I can dedicate lots of time to looking after your pet. I’m an active person who enjoys daily walks and being outdoors, so I’d love the opportunity to include your dog in my routine. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s needs and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’d love to provide your pet with plenty of care, companionship, and attention, whether that means exciting walks, playtime, comforting company, or regular check-ins. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I’ll always adapt my care to suit their individual needs and make sure they feel happy and comfortable. I’m happy to offer pet sitting in my own home, but I especially enjoy caring for pets in their own environment where they feel most relaxed and secure. Keeping their familiar routine and surroundings helps them feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have always been the person that friends, family & neighbours come to when they need someone to look after theirs. I also have my own Frenchie, who is 3 and quite honestly my absolute baby! I genuinely see her as another child, so I completely understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own, making sure they get lots of love, attention, cuddles and of course plenty of walkies! 🐶❤️ I work as a school cook Monday to Friday, so I’m available for pet care after 2pm on weekdays. I’m available for overnight care throughout the weekends. I can also offer weekday boarding for dogs who are comfortable being left at home with my resident Frenchie until I finish work at around 1:30pm. Outside of work, I’ll be around to give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, walks and cuddles 🐶❤️ I have a secure, fenced garden and a friendly 3-year-old Frenchie who is very much part of the family. I live in a village with lots of lovely fields and walking routes nearby, so I can offer shorter walks around the area or longer walks for dogs who enjoy getting out and exploring. I’m also happy to visit your home for walks, feeding, toilet breaks or just some company. I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s usual routine and treat them with the same care and love I give my own ❤️🐾

Clare was amazing looking after our 2 Pomeranians, we booked for 10days for our wedding. Our dogs can be a little sensitive at the beginning to new people but they adjusted very quickly to her. Clare went above and beyond for us and gave us regular photo updates of the pups on their adventures. We really appreciated her taking care of them and we felt that the dogs were in very safe hands. I would definitely use Clare again, she’s lovely!

FAQs for House Sitting – Gravesham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Gravesham on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 15,303 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gravesham. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Gravesham walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

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.

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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .

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 Gravesham 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. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.

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.
