“Gabriela was incredibly responsive right from my very first message. We left our 10-year-old dachshund with her for a week, and she kept us updated daily with photos and videos where our dog looked completely happy and calm. Our dachshund is normally very attached to me and hesitates to leave the house with others, but Gabriela managed to build trust with her incredibly quickly. She also seamlessly followed her daily routine, bedtime schedule, and vitamin regimen. We are so pleased with the care she provided and will definitely contact her again the next time we go away!”
“Would highly recommend Ornela. Great communication before Diego's stay. Provided updates throughout. Diego was really well looked after and would definitely book again.”
About: Hi, my name is Yana Dogs have always had a special place in my hear I had a dog of my own, and over the years I’ve also enjoyed helping friends with their dogs — from walks and playtime to looking after them when they’re away One experience that was especially meaningful to me was staying with a friend’s puppy for a whole week while she was on holiday It was a lovely experience and reminded me just how much I enjoy caring for dogs and being part of their little world ❤️ I understand that every dog is different Some love long, energetic walks, while others prefer a slower pace with plenty of time to sniff and explore I’m happy to follow your dog’s routine and personality and make every walk comfortable, safe and enjoyable I’m caring, patient and responsible, and I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own — with plenty of attention, affection and care I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your four-legged friend and become someone you can trust and rely on 🐶❤️ After every walk, I’m happy to send you a photo and a little update, so you can see your dog enjoying their time and know how their walk went 🐶📸 I live 1 minute away from Canbury Garden Thank you :) I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends.

I’m also happy to keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can feel reassured while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I live in a comfortable and peaceful apartment in a pet-friendly area, with a large, beautiful park just a short walk away. It’s a great place for dogs to enjoy regular walks, fresh air and plenty of exercise.

We were kept updated and we could tell Pingu had a nice time away!”
“Lauren and her family were perfect to look after Cooper. This was our first time leaving him with anyone and we immediately felt comfortable upon meeting them. We were sent daily updates, photos and videos of his adventures. This massively relieved any unease we had. If she will have him we will definitely rebook Lauren for our next trip away. Thank you so much.”
“Lucy was soo amazing with Harrie and has been one of the best dog carers we have left Harrie with. We met Lucy and her family beforehand which put us at ease.

Thank you again Margarita.”

“Caroline was brilliant. She made us feel so comfortable in the way she interacted with Gizmo when she first met her (Gizmo can be rather grumpy!) and took such good care of her throughout. She sent us photos and videos at regular intervals, which really put our minds at rest, and even went above and beyond in dealing with a problem in our house. ”
About: I have had cats all my life. For the past 12 years we have had main coon cats which have been an absolute delight to have with us. I regularly look after cats for our friends and neighbours
“Thank you so much for looking after Luna. She was exceptionally looked after and was entertained every day of her stay. We are very grateful for Elena's amazing care centred around our precious family member ❤️”
“Gabriela was brilliant in the way she looked after our cat. Her communication was great in that she provided updates by way of video photos and messages everyday to let us know how Squeaks was doing. She responded to all messages quickly and she provided a warm caring home for our cat whilst we were away. We would definitely use Gabriela again.”
“Samantha was great. Really attentive to Hector and I felt confident that he was being looked after. She was also friendly and communicated well in the run up and during her visit. Thanks!”
“Reina looked after my cat Fifi all weekend and I was so relaxed! You can tell she absolutely loves animals and sent me so many pictures and updates. She played with Fifi and took care of her so well. She even emptied my dehumidifier for me, which was very kind! She was also able to help me at last minute which shows how reliable and helpful she is: thank you Reina from me and from my beloved Fifi!”
“So glad I found Ali on this platform! She’s very caring and attentive, spent a lot of time with my cats and was so careful with them. Highly recommended and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. ”
“Sophie was absolutely amazing looking after my two kitties, Apollo and Artemis, while I was away. She is incredibly trustworthy, highly responsive, and built a wonderful bond with them. She kept me updated on their every move and even left my flat completely spotless. We really liked her and will definitely book her again! Thanks a million Sophie :)”
“We could not be more pleased with Joana staying to look after our girls. She agreed to meet us and the cats ahead of time, which really put us at ease for her overnight stay ahead. During the stay, she was attentive to the girls needs (especially in the heat) and even was shown so much affection by Pixie, our timid cat who is slow to open herself to people. It just goes to show how amazing Joana is with animals! The frequent photo updates were also great, so we could see how happy and healthy the girls were. We would absolutely trust her again with our cats and are so thankful she stayed to look after them overnight. Thank you, Joana!”
About: My family have had cats since I was little so I have always grown up around them! My brother currently has 2 rescues that I help with when he travels (including a mane coon with asthma) and am always happy for a cat snuggle! My grandad has always had cats and my brother has rescued multiple cats which I have looked after (including a manecoon and a blind cat) and they are so loving! My brother has rescued multiple cats and I have helped out so I am aware of their different personalities and needs and am super flexible on adjusting to what each of their preferences are - whether they love a little stroke or just some peace and quiet :).
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, growing up with both cats and dogs, so looking after pets has always come naturally to me. I now have a corgi of my own, so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I love playing with both dogs and cats, but I’m also happy to just keep them company and help them feel relaxed while you’re away. I also have experience giving medication if needed, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe hands. I work from home, which means your pet will have company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I always try to treat every pet like my own and pay attention to their individual needs and personality.
“Ada was friendly and punctual, and the cats took to her really quickly! She sent daily updates and kept the cats happy, entertained, cleaned, and fed whilst I was away. I will definitely be contacting her next time I take a trip!”
“Silvia has looked after Wanda twice now and done a great job both times. I have always felt reassured that Wanda has had a good amount of company and been cared for. Silvia has also gone above and beyond with small things like picking up parcels and bringing things into the flat for me. Thanks so much”
“Jackie was an amazing catsitter!! Very easy to communicate and reliable. Jackie looked after our two cats for a week. She would come at the same time everyday and give us a complete update on how our cats were doing, with photos and a description of what she did. We were very relaxed and happy! Highly recommend!”
“Couldn’t recommend Natali highly enough, she took such good care of our boys and sent daily reports and pictures. We really felt relaxed to know they were in such good hands.”
About: I’ve been a dedicated cat owner since 2015 and have always loved animals. Through patience and positive reinforcement using treats, I’ve taught my cat a few simple tricks, including sit, paw and high five. Looking after him has given me a good understanding of feline behaviour, routines and enrichment. I also care for a lovebird, so I appreciate that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience and attention that I give my own.
About: I have taken care of my cat Izzy from 2 months old. I have learnt to understand cats, especially as Izzy doesn’t really like people, and have provided her with play time, ensuring she has eaten. I have also volunteered at my hometown animal shelter, and helped multiple cats feel calm and stay healthy after being abandoned. The cats in the shelter were of all ages
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them is something that makes me feel happy. I grew up with four dogs and one cat, which taught me early on how much patience, understanding, and gentle care animals need to feel safe and secure. I also spent several years cat-sitting for two cats, regularly brushing them, monitoring their health, and tending to any issues they had, always making sure they felt comfortable and relaxed in their own environment. I believe every cat has their own unique personality, boundaries, and routine. I genuinely enjoy taking the time and patience to understand each cat individually, whether they are playful and social or more shy and independent, and adapting my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. My own pets are back home with my family in Switzerland which has made me miss my time with pets altogether. I would love to share that attention and care with your pet and show them the time and love that they deserve. Your cat’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing will always be my priority. With a flexible schedule, I’m available mornings and evenings on weekdays and fully available on weekends. I’m happy to adapt to your cat’s routine, whether that includes feeding schedules, playtime, grooming, or simply quiet companionship. I always set aside dedicated time not just for essential care, but also for enrichment and interaction, ofcourse, on your cat’s terms. I understand how important it is to respect their space and build trust gradually. I take responsibility and trust very seriously when caring for cats in someone else’s home. I follow all instructions closely, respect household routines, and treat your home with care and discretion. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language to ensure your cat feels safe, calm, and respected at all times. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your cat, and your home, are being cared for thoughtfully and with genuine kindness 💗

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old, mainly Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve previously used Rover through a shared household profile and have experience looking after a range of different dogs. I really enjoy walking, playing with and caring for them, and I’m reliable, patient and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’ll always make sure your dog feels happy, safe and well looked after. I work flexibly, which means I have plenty of time during the week for dog walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting. My schedule can vary, but I’m generally able to be flexible with timings and can often accommodate daytime, evening and weekend bookings. I always follow each owner’s routine and instructions closely, whether I’m caring for a dog in their home or taking them out for walks. I make sure dogs are kept safe, comfortable and given plenty of attention, and I’m very mindful of things like feeding routines, leads, doors, medication instructions and any individual needs.
“Dominika took such great care of my dog, Salsa, while she was at daycare. She was incredibly attentive, made sure Salsa was comfortable and happy, and even helped administer her medication with no issues at all. She also provided regular photo updates, which gave me real peace of mind and was so lovely to receive throughout the day. I would 100% book with Dominika again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“Evie took care of our little corgi puppy Eevee for the day and we couldn’t have been more pleased. We received numerous updates throughout the day which reassured us that she is well and taken care of. Froggy was also very sweet and protective of our puppy. We really feel like she was in good hands and paws. Highly recommend Evie!”
“Paulo and his family were amazing. My dog is quite shy and nervous and takes ages to get used to people but she seemed totally relaxed at their house. Super nice people who genuinely love dogs and look after them with care.”
“I was looking for a last-minute dog sitter, and Abbie responded quickly and happily accepted our request. She was incredibly friendly and welcoming, took Bella on a long walk, and kept us updated with photos throughout the day. Bella clearly had a great time because she didn’t want to leave! I’ll definitely be booking with Abbie again.”
“Andrew looked after Archie really well. We had lots of feedback and photos which was reassuring We would definitely recommend him and will be using Andrew again next time.”
About: Hi, I’m Georgiana! I’m a big animal lover and proud dog mum to two sighthound pups. I’ve grown up around animals and have lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs — from energetic puppies to older, more sensitive souls. I know how important it is to find someone you can really trust with your pets. I’m gentle, patient, and always make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or just calm company, I care for every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently studying for my PhD, so my schedule is flexible, and I love using my time outdoors for walks and cuddles with animals. My work is flexible as it is research it can change day to day/week to week therefore my schedule is flexible and can be adapted around demand. When I am with your pets I will solely focus on them, they will be my priority because I am a very caring vegan and animals are so precious to me. I will follow your instructions for how you would like your pet to be looked after. I will also focus on your animal to make sure their needs are attended to as and when they need something be it a cuddle, a treat, a fresh air break, or a good play session.
“Elena was so lovely with Gimli! She took him for a nice walk and got him settled in straight away, I also really appreciate the photo updates, I will definitely take him back :)”
About: i’ve been passionate about all animal kind since childhood. i grew up always out in nature and going to anywhere i could see animals. the highlight of my childhood was meeting my hero david attenborough! my best friend growing up was my jack russell terrier alfie. i often cared for friends and family members pets being from a large family who knew how much it meant to me to be around animals. i offer dogs lots of fun and support, i understand the individual and work to find what motivates them. i can adapt to most needs and love making dogs happy. a fun fact about me is i’m using money i make from this service to save towards my wedding - i love the idea that looking after my favourite animal can fund my special day! working from home throughout the week means that i am always local and can easily fit care throughout a day/week. myself and my partner love to go for long walks and get the most out of our beautiful local area. however, a walk is never complete without a canine companion! we’re lucky enough to live in between two royal parks (bushy and richmond) where we spend hours exploring. also always love a cosy weekend night in with a pup or cat to snuggle and spoil. i live in a large flat with cosy spaces to snuggle down, big windows to sit at and watch the world go by and plenty of space to play. myself and my partner both work from home and can have a pet sat in a room with either of us, or free range throughout the flat, whichever is their/your preference. i am always respectful of someone else’s home, i understand it’s not easy allowing a new person into your space and am keen to honour the trust given. your home is your castle and i will treat your pets like royalty!
“Thankyou Maxim for looking after our Trudy! We felt very reassured and happy leaving Trudy with you and your partner! It was lovely to see Trudy warm up to you both so quickly. We will definitely call again when we are in the area!”
“Ganna and Annie have formed a really strong relationship and Ganna has been there for her through little illnesses and her first season! I’m really appreciative of Ganna’s support and I know she loves seeing little Annie ☺️”
“Charissa was wonderful and took wonderful care of Luna. She asked me question about Luna’s feeding which shows the level of card and attention she has when taking care of Our dogs. She sent me photos through out the day and told me when they went out for walk. I will deffo be having her to take care of Luna again. Highly recommend”
About: I have trained both my parent's dog as well as my own dog (cockapoo '21). Think: puppy and behaviour training in village halls and outdoor fields. I have done house sitting for several families in Surrey and enjoy looking after pets and the house. I'm super neat and could also agree on some other jobs, like watering plants etc. I'm an online language teacher and can work from everywhere, as long as I have wifi! As long as I get enough notice, I can easily plan longer house & pet sits as well. Usually families request me for school holidays and bank holiday weekends at least half a year in advance, so the earlier you ask, the bigger the chance that I'm free. I like clear written instructions with regard to food, exercise, care and timings. If you wanted to book me for a weekend or an extended stay and prefer a video call or quick meet beforehand, I could definitely get that organised as well. I'm new on Rover, but have done house and pet sitting before. This was more informal and through word of mouth.
“Our Labrador Archie had the best time and came back nice and tired. Crys was very communicative and was very confident with the dogs. Will happily book again in the future and would recommend for anyone.”

About: I’m a genuine animal lover and currently share my home with both a cat and a lovebird, so I understand the patience, care and attention that pets need every day. I know that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable and loved. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, playing, keeping them company or following your pet’s normal schedule, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I’m reliable, organised and happy to provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I mostly work from home, and my husband’s work schedule complements mine, so there is usually someone at home throughout the day. This means your pet will receive plenty of attention, regular companionship and care. I always do my best to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime and any specific instructions you provide. Our home is calm, clean and pet-friendly, with a secure private garden for supervised outdoor time where appropriate. We have separate rooms, which allows us to safely introduce pets gradually or keep them apart if needed. We always prioritise each pet’s comfort and safety, and we’ll carefully follow any routines or instructions you provide. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how important it is to create a safe, low-stress environment.
“Mung is a very friendly, warm and professional dog walker for our pet. We have had two introductory walks and they went perfectly. We look forward to having Mung help us on an ongoing basis.”
About: I shared my life with a German Shepherd for 15 years, so I've been through every stage of dog ownership — boisterous puppy energy, the steady adult years, and the slower, more careful pace that comes with senior care. That gives me a real feel for adjusting a walk or visit to what a dog actually needs that day, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. I've also always gotten on easily with friends' and relatives' dogs of all breeds and temperaments, so I'm comfortable reading a dog I've just met and adapting to their personality quickly. What sets me apart is patience and attentiveness — I'm not rushing through a walk or visit, I'm genuinely paying attention to your dog's mood, energy, and comfort the whole time. My work involves shift patterns rather than a fixed 9-to-5, which actually works in your dog's favour — I have varied windows throughout the day and week to fit in walks and drop-in visits, including times a standard office schedule wouldn't allow. Since I offer walks and drop-in visits, I'm coming into your home to care for your dog rather than the other way round. I always confirm entry details, feeding instructions, and any house rules with you in advance, and I follow your dog's routine exactly as you've set it out — same food, same schedule, same walking route if that matters to them. I keep an eye on the home while I'm there (doors locked, nothing left out of place) and I'll message you with an update or photo after each visit so you always know your dog was safe, walked, and happy.
“We are so happy to have found Joana. She has helped us with walks, drop in visits and house sitting for our Jack Russell, Biscuit, while we were away for a week, and we have found her not only a lover of animals but responsible, friendly, trustworthy and professional. We had quite a lot of detailed requirements due to Biscuit's anxiety and Joana was kind and accommodating. She provided lots of updates and photos and we felt really confident Biscuit was in good hands with her. We would definitely recommend Joana and will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Joana.”
About: I am an experienced dog walker, and have been responsible for walking my heavy boxer George through varied terrains. I would often walk more than one dog, as I have cared for my neighbors dogs before, who are a bit smaller than my boxer. I was responsible for my dogs behavior training, medication management (including regular and important medications now my George is an older boy) and trick training. I’ve also cared for my cat Izzy since she was a kitten, ensuring her well being and understanding feline behavior. I have also volunteered at my hometown animal shelter, walking and feeding dog all of different sizes, aswell as dealing with dogs that aren’t trusty of people or trained due to being abandoned. Although I don’t live with my pets anymore, I still see them as they live with my parents. I am currently fully flexible, so I am able to look after your pets this summer regardless of your needs. I am willing to come to any location and adapt to your needs. From ensuring my cat and my dog stayed safe and in the house in my hometown, which was a mountainous where a pet can easily be lost, i can assure I am a trustworthy attentive person.

“Evie is great, good communication, brilliant with our pooch, and she has endless enthusiasm - even in the rain. Our poodle Otis always came back from their walks a very happy and tired boy. Many thanks. 😊”
About: I’ve grown up with an English Springer Spaniel and been around dogs my whole life. Looking to use my spare time taking good care of furry pets and get fresh air in the nearby Bushy and Richmond parks. I’m currently working from home writing up my PhD thesis so would love the opportunity to walk dogs and dog sit. Available to walk your lovely dog on weekends and weekday evenings currently. I am very friendly and good with animals, currently living in a flat so available to care for pets in the owners home and / or walk in the nearby parks.
“Lizzie was great - friendly, communicative, and so good with Buzby, who loved her. I'd definitely recommend her as a responsible dog walker who will take great care of your pet!”

I’m able to be flexible with walks, feeding times, and any specific needs your pet has. Whether it’s a quick check-in, longer walks, or full-day care, I can adjust my schedule to make sure your pet is well looked after and not left alone for long. I have a fenced garden, so pets can enjoy safe outdoor time and toilet breaks. I make sure to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, and any special care instructions.
“Joshna was super responsive and helpful when we needed last minute help. Mango seemed very happy with her and we came home to a content dog :) would trust her happily again!”
About: I am a dog lover with experience of Frenchies, Goldendoodles, Bulldogs, Staffies, King Charles Cavaliers and Sausage Dogs. If you are a dog owner in the local area, the chances are I have already approached you to say hello to your pooch and give them a good scratch behind the ear! I love hanging out with dogs and sadly my cat ownership makes full time dog ownership impossible, so I would like to find a different way to spend time with dogs and make the most of the beautiful local area.

About: Hi, my name is Yana Dogs have always had a special place in my hear I had a dog of my own, and over the years I’ve also enjoyed helping friends with their dogs — from walks and playtime to looking after them when they’re away One experience that was especially meaningful to me was staying with a friend’s puppy for a whole week while she was on holiday It was a lovely experience and reminded me just how much I enjoy caring for dogs and being part of their little world ❤️ I understand that every dog is different Some love long, energetic walks, while others prefer a slower pace with plenty of time to sniff and explore I’m happy to follow your dog’s routine and personality and make every walk comfortable, safe and enjoyable I’m caring, patient and responsible, and I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own — with plenty of attention, affection and care I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your four-legged friend and become someone you can trust and rely on 🐶❤️ After every walk, I’m happy to send you a photo and a little update, so you can see your dog enjoying their time and know how their walk went 🐶📸 I live 1 minute away from Canbury Garden Thank you :) I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to provide daytime care, overnight stays, and house sitting. I can be flexible with different schedules and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’m also happy to keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can feel reassured while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I live in a comfortable and peaceful apartment in a pet-friendly area, with a large, beautiful park just a short walk away. It’s a great place for dogs to enjoy regular walks, fresh air and plenty of exercise.
“Fantastic, reliable and flexible boarder. Our dog was in great hands and loving company of the whole family and corgi Marta. We received videos/photos every day. Would be delighted to use boarding services again. Thank you Nataliya, Marta and the whole family.”
“Dominika is absolutely lovely and I immediately felt comfortable leaving my puppy Alfie with her. She has a beautiful set up with lovely garden and was kind sending photos and updates during Alfie’s stay. I will be booking again soon I’m sure! Thank you Dominika 🙏”
“Our dog Zuri appeared to have a lovely time with Kate and her family. She regularly sent us photos and videos and made us feel comfortable about leaving our dog with her. Thank you!”
“Pingu had a great time staying with Luke and we would definitely recommend him. Communication was clear from the beginning and he ensured he had all the right details in advance to make it a nice stay, so our minds were left at ease. We were kept updated and we could tell Pingu had a nice time away!”
“Lauren and her family were perfect to look after Cooper. This was our first time leaving him with anyone and we immediately felt comfortable upon meeting them. We were sent daily updates, photos and videos of his adventures. This massively relieved any unease we had. If she will have him we will definitely rebook Lauren for our next trip away. Thank you so much.”
“Lucy was soo amazing with Harrie and has been one of the best dog carers we have left Harrie with. We met Lucy and her family beforehand which put us at ease. Harrie settled in so well with the kids and the family. I don't think she wanted to come home. Communication was excellent with frequent updates and pictures. Harrie will be back.”
“Trish was lovely. Warm, welcoming, calm and obviously loves dogs. Our whippet was really well looked after and was even allowed to sleep under the duvet. True devotion.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Yasemin. She looked after my dog, Rosie, in her home for 10 days and I truly couldn’t have asked for better care. From the start she was incredibly kind and welcoming, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout the stay she kept in regular contact, sending updates and photos so I could see what Rosie was up to. It was clear Rosie was having a lovely time — going on long walks and getting lots of attention. It meant so much to know Rosie was not only safe but genuinely happy and well cared for while I was away. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive dog sitter.”
About: I grew up around dogs and have always loved them. I have taken care of dogs of all ages including hosting them overnight. I also have experience with young puppies who are being toilet trained (though I have not trained them myself), so am used to puppy pads and lots of trips outside! I am flexible and can work from home 2 days per week, which I can work around based off of dog sitting responsibilities. I am also available on weekends if required. When working from home I am able to take breaks to go for walks, play with your dog and make sure they have been to the toilet and are comfy and happy! I don’t own a pet, I have a fenced garden. I live right next to the river and a 10 minute walk away from bushy park so lots of green space for walks. I also live by a street of dog friendly cafes.
“Fantastic stay for Iggy at Karina’s house along with Truffle (Iggys new best friend). Karina shared photos during their walk. Will certainly recommend Karinas’ sevices to anyone in need of help.”
“Sandra was very kind, caring and accommodating of Sydney’s needs (who hadn’t had a dog sitter since being a puppy so was somewhat unknown quantity). Would highly recommend :)”
“My first time using Rover and what a delight that was! Eva made me feel at ease from the first time we spoke and she kept me up to date for the whole week she looked after our doggy. Would definitely recommend her if you are after someone reliable!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old, mainly Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve previously used Rover through a shared household profile and have experience looking after a range of different dogs. I really enjoy walking, playing with and caring for them, and I’m reliable, patient and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’ll always make sure your dog feels happy, safe and well looked after. I work flexibly, which means I have plenty of time during the week for dog walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting. My schedule can vary, but I’m generally able to be flexible with timings and can often accommodate daytime, evening and weekend bookings. I always follow each owner’s routine and instructions closely, whether I’m caring for a dog in their home or taking them out for walks. I make sure dogs are kept safe, comfortable and given plenty of attention, and I’m very mindful of things like feeding routines, leads, doors, medication instructions and any individual needs.
“This is the second time we have asked Sally to have our dog now and she and her lovely family did not disappoint. I Would highly recommend, she sends regular photo updates, is very quick to respond and is really lovely ☺️”
About: I've been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I raised my Husky, who was my companion for 12 years, and I now have an Australian Shepherd. Through both of my dogs, I've gained hands-on experience with training, daily care, and understanding canine behavior. I'll treat your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I work remotely on project-based assignments, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and companionship, so your dog won't be left alone for long. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I always follow each owner's care instructions and strive to keep pets on their usual routine to help them feel safe and relaxed.
“Vany took a great care of our puppy. Great communication, no hassle arranging things, all went smooth and even better than expected. I would definitely recommend Vany as a dog sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Melissa and Troy were first class sitters. From the first moment we met Melissa during the “meet and greet” session there was clear chemistry between us and especially with Louis. He was extremely well cared for and felt totally at home during his stay. I would have no hesitation in booking with Melissa again . Top marks and thank you so much .”
