“Heather was an amazing support. I know Ivy was in safe hands and she came back tired which means she was busy, had lots of fun and made a fuss of. Heather was easy to communicate with which makes the whole progress so easy. Thank you!”

“I can't recommend Owen highly enough. We left our cockapoo Buddy for 1 week and as nervous parents who have never left one of our pets with a stranger before we was very relieved that it all went well. We received photos and videos of him enjoying himself through the week, with a little description of how he was getting on, eating and playing with the other dogs. We've been home for a couple of days now and I think he's missing the company of the other dogs as he loves playing. I wouldn't hesitate to book Owen through Rover again when we go away. Thank you so much”


“Very good service, my dog Chilli was very happy when he returned and I am very pleased with the stay, including regular photo updates. I highly recommend and will be returning. Big thank you Matteo for looking after chili. Sara”

“I’m very happy with Tuan’s service. I received regular updates, which gave me peace of mind, and they went above and beyond to ensure Nala was comfortable. I’ll definitely use their service again in the future!”

“Thank you so much for everything you do Fernando! Meeting you and your dogs was very professional, I loved our communication throughout Syd stays, your house is great and we will love to ask for your services for our next time! The review from Syd is 10/10!!”

About: Took care of family lab for 3 years, walking him 3 times a day in the local park. Occasionally house sit family and friends who have cats and dogs. I’m a PhD student living with my partner in our late 20s, currently working from home. Available during weekdays and weekends. We are able to take them on walks at least 2 times a day, and feed them according to their needs. Have access to a park 30 seconds away and 2 minutes away from the riverside. Currently do not have pets of our own but love taking care of our family dogs and cats.
“We have now left Milly with Anke a few times it is so nice to be able to leave her with them and Milly feel so at home and for us to know she gets treated like she would at home”

About: I rescued my previous Rottweiler and I am very experienced in looking after big dogs as well as small ones! I grew up with my springer spaniel in my family home and fully house trained him when he was a puppy. I really enjoy running with dogs too :) I work from home on Friday, and I am in most weekends. I would be able to give all my attention to your dog all weekend. I have a fenced garden as I’m on the bottom floor, I have no other pets as my Rottweiler sadly pass away. I have lots of space in my flat, which is also based right in the centre of Blackheath village. I am about a 5 minute walk to the Heath and I absolutely love walking to Greenwich park, which is a very dog friendly park.

About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with them my entire life. Over the years I've cared for a variety of breeds, including Terriers, Pomeranians, and Dachshunds. I'm comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. My partner Lucas has also grown up with multiple family dogs. While travelling, we completed two pet sits where we looked 3 Dachshunds for 2 weeks, and 1 poodle cross for 3 weeks. This involved caring for the dogs in their own homes, making sure they stayed happy, exercised, and kept to their usual routines. I also have one year of professional experience as a Pet Care Assistant, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs and ensuring they were safe, comfortable, and well looked after. I'm confident continuing any training you're working on, sticking to your dog's normal routine, and providing plenty of love, play, and attention. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I'll always care for them as if they were my own. My partner and I live in a lovely flat in East London with easy access to parks and great walking routes, giving dogs plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and fresh air. I work from home 3 days per week, and do not work weekends. I have a flexible office schedule so when caring for your pet there will always be someone at home (either myself, or my partner). I would ensure regular walks and toilet breaks, and plenty of cuddles. I have a spacious 1 bedroom apartment, the building has access to a lift so your pet would not need to manage flights of stairs. We have plenty of walks and green spaces for your pet to enjoy. When your pet is staying with us they will be loved and cared for as if they were our own with lots of love and attention. They are welcome to sit with us on the sofa for cuddles. Your pets comfort and safety is always the priority.
“Elizaveta took care my dog like she does for her own, she kept me updated on a daily basis with pics and videos. She followed instructions for my dog to the letter with no issues.”

“It was the first time I left my puppy overnight with someone outside my family, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Andrea was amazing with him, so patient and caring, even though he’s a very energetic Border Collie pup. He clearly felt comfortable and happy with her, and I could tell he really liked her. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave him, and I’ve already left him with her again because she made me feel very at ease.”

“The dogs came back happy and obviously very well cared for. Both Nicola and her partner were obvious very good to them and provided constant updates. We will definitely be using them again if we need.”


“Pippa has been absolutely amazing! This was our first time using Rover, and we feel so lucky that we chose Pippa to look after Truffle. Truffle spent 18 days with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Pippa kept us updated every day with lovely photos and messages, which gave us such peace of mind. We could clearly see how happy Truffle was and how much fun she was having during her stay. Pippa is caring, trustworthy, and clearly loves what she does. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking for someone to look after their pet. She is definitely our number one choice, and we will absolutely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾”


“Hannah was amazing as always! Benny had a great time, he’s returned looking very happy and I received regular updates, photos and videos throughout. Thank you so much and he cant wait for the next holiday!”

“Daniel and Brian took wonderful care of my fur baby. They carefully followed instructions and sent regular updates. My boy had fun hanging out with them and their pooch; and came home happy and relaxed. my boy had a little holiday, whilst i was on mine. It was reassuring to know he was in good hands and would rebook in the future.”


“Ely and his family were a pleasue to deal with from the first email contact and my initial recon visit confirmed my thoughts, that this would be a good safe stopover for our MInature Schnauzer Baily. It was all as expected, excellent. I would not hesitate bringing Bailey back another time and recommending to friends”

“Shania did look after our cat very well. I believe she is a one of the kind/trust worthy sitter. She has been updating us with pictures videos/calls and all the related information about our cat every single day. Leaving a house key with a stranger is not easy but her service made us to think differently. I would highly recommend Shania.💕 ”

“Marina was absolutely great! She took great care of Mushy and my place, kept me informed all the time and made sure Mushy’s routine was kept in all the details. Communication was very easy and the whole process was really smooth. My cat is very shy, but she was incredibly comfortable with her. I 100% recommend her and will book again!”


“Anis was fantastic. She is very diligent and kept me up to date with everything. She monitored basils eating and sat with him to ensure he ate his dinner. Lots of photos and videos were sent. The flat was spotless when I got back too and basil is a messy eater. I can highly recommend. Thank you Anis ”


“Kaitlyn looked after our two cats while we were on holiday for a week. We found her to be conscientious and reliable. She followed our instructions on how to care for our two fussy cats to the letter and also assisted with taking out the bins. We appreciated the regular updates she sent to let know how our cats were doing. We would book her again. ”


“Hawa was amazing. She looked after my 4 cats over Christmas. She came every day twice a day. Often not all the cats come down when a neighbour feeds them, but with Hawa, they all did. She kept me updated every day, and even sent me pictures and videos. I would definitely recommend her. I was able to enjoy Christmas away, worry free”

“Our cat loved having Rai and it’s easy to tell Rai loves cats! Our boy was very content when we got home and obviously got a lot of attention, I definitely recommend Rai for clingy cats like ours! ”

She also managed his character quirks, working around his stubbornness when he decided he didn't want to go for a second walk. Very helpful and communicative. Would definitely book again!”

“I am very pleased with the service Giulia & her partner provided. We have found it so hard to find people who we trust and are nearby to leave teddy with. You guys have such a warm lovely vibe and teddy had a lovely day! He was knocked out when he got home wagging his tail in his sleep he was probably dreaming about his day 🥹 I was able to relax fully and really appreciated the updates!”

“Bernie absolutely loves Emma and wags her tail like mad when we get close to her house! We would recommend her to absolutely anyone. So reliable, flexible and Bernie always comes back so happy ♥️”

“Andrea’s great. Very calm, clear and helpful. Sends pics and updates throughout the day and is very patient with new dogs who need a minute to settle. I leave my springer with her all day and she has a great time! Highly recommend”

“Recommend! Super friendly and easy to get along with at drop off/ pick up, sends updates during the day and picked up a tired pup who slept soundly for the rest of the evening. Thanks Jayden :)”

About: I really love spending time with dogs and have some experience in taking care of them. I never had a dog, but my boyfriend has, and we are looking to get a dog of our own someday. I currently have 2 dogs I dog sit regularly for the whole day and 2 dogs that I take in for a few days when the owners are on holidays. I haven’t got any kids around so no need to worry if your dog isn’t great with children. I’m looking for a lovely dog that I can take for walks and have at home as well. I live in the East Village, so I have access to many dog walking spaces. I am equally good with chill and fussy dogs and I am available to take care of your dog for holidays/long weekends. I work full-time and the job never requires me to go into the office, unless there’s a particular need and/or I have a work trip, but this is known well in advance so my pet care schedule is flexible. I am currently unavailable on Wednesdays as I have dog sitting duties and the dog doesn’t get along with other dogs I have loads of toys, blankets and snacks to keep your pet entertained. I have a balcony but the walls are high enough for the dog to have a safe time

About: My husband and I both owned dogs back at our home country respectively, and we both missed them very dearly. We had our dogs since they were 2 weeks old, my husband is great at training puppies and I am organized in keeping the hygiene of the pets. I am a stay at home wife, which allows me to have plenty of time to keep the pets well accompanied and taken care of. It's an apartment with just my husband and I, we do not have kids around nor other pets here so the pets will not face any conflicts and have plenty of space.

“Julia was fantastic! Friendly, reliable and clearly loves dogs. Pola was happy, well cared for and I had complete peace of mind. I would definitely recommend and will happily book again!”

About: ** 💛 £15 OFF your first booking ** [ Use code ELENAS75062 💙 ] • DBS checked ✅ Hi 👋 It’s lovely to meet you, I’m Elena 😊 My love for animals started at home, from the very beginning. Growing up, my world was shared with three beautiful Siamese cats and an American Cocker Spaniel. They were not just pets they were part of my family. Living alongside them taught me from an early age the importance of patience, understanding, routines, and the unique personality every animal has. Those childhood experiences shaped the way I care for pets today. After more than 20 years of looking after dogs and cats, I know that every furry friend has their own story, their own needs, and their own way of feeling safe and loved. 🐶🐱 I understand that leaving your beloved companion with someone else is a big decision. Your pet is not “just a pet” they are a cherished member of your family. My aim is to provide a calm, secure, and loving home from home environment where they feel comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for, while giving you complete peace of mind. Every pet is unique, so my care is always personalised around their personality, age, routine, and individual needs: 🐶 Puppies -> Gentle guidance, routine support, patience, positive reinforcement, socialisation, and lots of affection as they grow and learn. 🐕🦺 Senior dogs –> Calm companionship, gentle walks, comfort, and extra attention adapted to their pace and needs. 🐕 Anxious or sensitive dogs –> A peaceful environment, reassurance, consistency, and the patience needed to help them feel secure. 🐱 Cats –> Respectful, patient care that allows them to feel comfortable in their own way. I understand that cats build trust at their own pace, so I provide quiet companionship, playtime, enrichment, and affection always on their terms. I have experience with shy cats, indoor cats, senior cats, and multi-cat households. 🐾 Kittens –> Supervised play, gentle socialisation, routine building, curiosity support, and lots of love. 📅 For busy families –> A reliable and comforting environment where your pet receives individual attention, companionship, and a consistent routine. I intentionally keep my bookings limited so I can offer genuine one to one attention. Your pet will never feel like just another booking, I’ll take the time to learn their habits, favourite activities, little quirks, and what makes them feel happiest. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, exploring outdoors, training games, mental stimulation, or simply relaxing in a cosy space, I’ll adapt my care to match their personality and energy level. While your pet is with me, you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and videos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love and attention. 💛 ✨ What matters most to me: Making sure every dog and cat in my care feels safe, comfortable, and loved, with patience, kindness, and genuine attention to their individual needs. 💛 If you’re looking for experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely caring pet care, I would be delighted to welcome your furry family member into my life 🐾💜 I offer flexible, full time availability throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. My goal is to provide reliable and consistent care that fits seamlessly into your schedule, whether you need occasional help or ongoing support. Your dog’s comfort and emotional wellbeing are always my top priority. When caring for pets in their home, I carefully follow their established routines to create a sense of stability and trust. I provide calm, attentive, and loving care, including feeding, walks, enrichment activities, and companionship. I also maintain clear and consistent communication, sending regular updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your baby is doing. My approach is built on respect, patience, and genuine care for every animal I look after.

About: I have been caring for my own dogs for over 8 years, including a Border Collie with high exercise and enrichment needs. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing exercise, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I always treat pets as if they were my own. I am comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities and I am happy to provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet care. As a long-term dog owner, I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and companionship for pets. I am happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide regular updates and photos during each visit. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priorities.

I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away.
About: What sets me apart is my calm, one-on-one approach to dog care. I focus on safety, routine, comfort, treating every dog with patience, respect and genuine love Pet care fits into my routine as a set of small, consistent habits rather than one big task. On a daily basis, it means feeding at regular times, making sure there’s fresh water, and spending some focused time on walks, play, or interaction so the pet gets enough exercise and attention. I also build in quick checks for health and behaviour, like appetite or energy levels. I care for pets by following a routine that prioritises their safety, comfort, and normal habits, whether in my own home or a pet owner’s home. I start by understanding the pet’s usual schedule, diet, exercise needs, and any medical or behavioural requirements, and I follow these instructions closely to keep things consistent for them. Care typically includes feeding according to instructions, ensuring constant access to fresh water, walking or exercise as agreed, playtime and companionship, and administering medication if required. I also keep living areas clean by tidying feeding spaces, cleaning litter trays or cages, and washing bowls and bedding when needed. While in the owner’s home, I respect the space, keep it secure, and provide regular updates so owners feel reassured that their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’m a caring and reliable dog lover with real hands-on experience. I’ve had three dogs in my life and I truly understand their needs, personalities and behaviour.

Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priority.
“Stephanie has been fantastic. When we first met, she asked a lot of questions and also took information from me very well. At the end of every walk, she sends me updates on the walk including pictures. My dog looks very happy. I will definitely be using Stephanie for repeat walks as I work in the office in the week”

“Lily was fantastic with our energetic (and very stubborn) corgi puppy. She was very calm, professional and confident walking our dog, who can get worked up easily and needs to be distracted from bikes/runners/cars etc. She's obviously experienced handling all types of dogs and passionate about them, making us feel so reassured. Thanks for being so great with our boisterous pup, Lily!”

We would definitely book Matt and Mel again. Thank you both for taking such good care of Archie.”

“Constance was great with Anjelica, my senior Great Dane. She was super responsive right from the beginning and provided me with lots of updates and pictures. Her partner was really friendly too and I’d definitely book again ☺️”

“Feiran is an amazing sitter and took above and beyond care for my dog! He was showered with love and attention and I was kept fully updated on how he was doing. I’m so pleased I chose her to look after my dog. I’m sure he will be super excited to go back for an additional 9 nights when I go away and I have so much peace of mind that he’ll be given above and beyond care. Thanks so much Feiran!!”

“Coco who can be a very nervous dog, but with Jenny’s lovely warm welcome and care, she soon forgot her nerves and had a great time. When I arrived to collect her she had the look of a child in the middle of a very good party! I would happily leave her with Jenny again as Coco came back confident and happy.”
