“It was the first time Ziggy stayed with Darren and Ross, and he had such a great weekend. Darren and Ross were quick at replying and sent photos during Ziggy’s stay. We’d definitely board with them again 🤗 thanks, Darren and Ross!”
“Anna and her family are lovely. Very considerate. I got regular updates about Ripley which is really nice as I appreciate knowing that he is happy. Thank you. I will definitely book again”
“If you need to leave your canine pal with a sitter who knows and understands dogs, then look no further than Andrew. Hector, my Flat Coat Retriever is a 40 Kilo loveable chap, buit can be a bit of a handful. When I got him back home he was pleasantly exhausted both mentally and physically, which suggests that he was entertained during his stay with Andrew and was not simply ignored. Thanks Andrew.”
“Very kind and caring of an old dog who needs lots of love and careful dispense of medication. She sent reassuring photos and nothing was too much trouble”
“Leigh was absolutely brilliant with Barbara, accommodating all her needs (attention, cuddles and walks!) Great communication and sent photos and updates. Barbara was super happy and I wouldn't hesitate booking again.”
“Jango had a wonderful time with Jessica while we were away for a week. During the entire time there were no issues and Jango was loved and cared for like he was Jessica's own.”
“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.”
“This is the second time Mel has looked after our pup Cali. Mel is really accommodating, responsive with messages and our dog absolutely adores her! Couldn’t recommend her enough”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Saya received over the 4 days. Dominika was amazing from the start—great communication and very friendly, which made me feel completely at ease. Saya was clearly very well looked after, happy, and comfortable the whole time. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which showed she was enjoying herself and in safe hands. It’s obvious that Dominika genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. I would definitely recommend her and will 100% be using her again in the future. Thank you so much, Dominika, for taking such good care of Saya!”
“Maddie loved staying with Jessica (and Kent), who treated her wonderfully. Jessica kept us well informed about how Maddie was getting on, with lots of lovely photos, and showed a real interest in Maddie's wellbeing (Maddie felt a bit poorly on one occasion). As a Senior dog Maddie appreciated being carried up stairs, and being allowed to sleep wherever she wanted. Maddie would love to come back to Jessica when we are next away.”
“Ineta looked after Ollie overnight on a Saturday at very short notice. She provided lots of updates, videos and photos throughout his stay which included a trip to the beach. Thank you”
“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.”
About: I have two years of experience caring for pets and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I am patient, responsible and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime and companionship, and I will always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure their pet feels safe, comfortable and loved. I work Monday to Friday from 10am to 5pm, but I work from home most of the time, which gives me flexibility when it comes to pet care.

I always treat every pet with patience, care and attention, and I will follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walking and daily routines. I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and well cared for at all times.
“Danielle and her family looked after Poppy for 4 days. This was the first time I have left her with someone other than family/friends so I was a bit nervous but Danielle kept me updated with photos/videos and Poppy seemed happy. I would definitely ask Danielle to look after Poppy again.”
“This was the easiest booking I’ve ever made. Juste was amazing and took such good care of our boy. We were regularly updated with pictures and videos, which was really reassuring. We’re very happy with the service and will definitely book again. 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.”
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.

“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!”

“Came back to two very happy cats :) I got my two Abys during lockdown so I was having separation anxiety ( before the trip) by myself and on their behalf. But I came back to two very happy cats as they have been given lots of attention and affection during my absence. Additionally, regular updates keep my worry at bay as well. I will be re-booking for sure. Thank you :) ”
“Repeat booking and once again she was wonderful. She checked in on my lovely cat Isla this weekend and took such great care of her. It’s always a huge comfort knowing she is in such kind and reliable hands while I’m away. Fabulous as always and highly recommended!”
“Sophie is a kind-hearted, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter. She looked after my two cats exceptionally well. She shared photos and updates every time she visited, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away on my trip.”
About: Hi I’m Lap living in Surbiton. I have been with my cat for 10 years and my commitment to fur kid is 100%. I’m a responsible person that will complete tasks on time. I have experience in taking care of street cats with other volunteers. I can get along with cats easily and have good chemistry with them. While I’m away, I always wish my fur kid to be stress-free, and rest assured I’ll endeavour to make yours feel the same.
“Luise was absolutely amazing! She was sending photos and videos daily, and my cat clearly enjoyed their time together. Great communication, very professional - I highly recommend Luise to look after your furry friend :)”
“You can tell Dominika has a lot of experience with dogs! She got on with Millie straight away and kept her happy and entertained while we were out for the evening :)”
“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: 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
“Lexi was really communicative and looked after Luis and the house really well. He seemed happy when we returned and his feeder was filled and used properly. The house was also left clean and tidy. We’d love to have Lexi look after Luis again soon. Thank you!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care David provided for our cat! He handled twice-daily visits while we were away, and it was so clear that our cat felt comfortable and safe with him. We came home to a very happy, relaxed cat who barely seemed to notice we were gone. David is reliable, professional, and clearly a true cat lover. Highly recommended!”
“Our regular cat sitter was away when we needed to travel for 3 weeks. Luckily, we found Evie to take care of our cats at short notice. Evie is certainly experienced and very responsible. Our cats were a bit shy in the beginning, but gradually they began looking forward to her visit every day. Besides feeding and cleaning, Evie played with and petted them to cheer them up while they were all by themselves. We are very grateful that we returned home to our healthy and happy cats. We will continue to rely on Evie’s professional care when we are away next time.”
“Ellie is an amazing and trustworthy pet sitter. She looked after our 2 kittens while we were away and she was genuinely loving and caring for them. She kept us updated with pictures and messages everyday and she kept their spaces clean and tidy. We would definitely recommend her to everyone. Thanks Ellie 💖🙏✨”
“Sam and Coco were amazing. Very detailed and thoughtful visits and reports. They clearly cared for Oreo during what turned out to be an eventful and at times difficult sitting. I very much appreciated their going the extra mile. Communication was above and beyond. Will definitely use again and will highly recommend.”
About: Cats are definitely my strong suit and I treat every stray and the kitties of others as my own, I will ensure to the best of my ability that your cats feel comfortable and respected as i know it’s especially difficult to introduce them to new people as a cat owner myself. I understand that all cats are different and if your cat needs more play or more independent time than others I am more than happy to oblige if you’d let me know:)
“Juste has been a brilliant cat sitter for our girl, giving her the love and attention she needed while we’re away. Juste came to meet us before the cat sitting began and the cat took an immediate liking to her! She has even watered my plants for me which is greatly appreciated. I definitely recommend Juste and will be using her again in the future 😃”
“Ophelia was fantastic with our kitties: played with them, fed them, took care of them and shared loads of photos! She's super attentive and responsible, we highly recommend her, thank you Ophelia!”
About: I have owed cats for 9+ years (rescue & pedigree), and love giving them the love and attention they deserve, and seeing their individual personalities is so special. I now have a spoilt rotten 3yo Scottish Fold, but have looked after mine, and friend's cats across a range of ages, with varying needs - kittens to senior cats with medicated end of life care needs.

“Last minute booking with Ross & Darren and I’m so happy to have found them, they put my mind and ease very quickly, they were loving and caring to my fur baby and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter or daycare. Really lovely people & Kylo had lots of fun and slept all the way home. Thank you guys x”
“Andrew took great care of Bruno. Bruno was exhausted after a long walk and a day of play with Andrew. He sent us loads of pictures and kept us updated. Will definitely rely on him again.”
“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.”
“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.”
“We were so pleased to find Dominika, who has now looked after our 20-month-old Chihuahua, Donnie, a couple of times for the day. Dominika is responsive, communicative, friendly, and clearly loves dogs. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease leaving Donnie in her care. Each time, Donnie has come home happy, relaxed, well exercised, fed, and thoroughly looked after. It’s clear that Dominika spends quality time with him, making sure he gets plenty of attention, play, and care throughout the day. We really appreciate the updates and communication while he’s with her, which gives us great peace of mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dominika to anyone looking for a trustworthy, 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!”
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.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life, starting with my own dog throughout childhood and my teenage years. As an adult, I regularly look after dogs for family and friends, including larger breeds and high-energy dogs. I’m comfortable accommodating different temperaments, routines, and energy levels—from playful, energetic dogs who need plenty of movement and stimulation to calmer dogs who prefer gentle walks and companionship. I always take time to understand each dog’s personality and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while in my care. I care deeply and act from a place of love, patience, and empathy. I’m very attentive to body language and behaviour, which helps me respond calmly and appropriately in different situations. To deepen my understanding, I’ve attended private dog training sessions and continue learning independently through training videos and research. This has helped me build confidence in handling dogs, reinforcing positive behaviour, and creating a calm, happy environment. Your dog won’t just be looked after—they’ll be genuinely cared for, engaged, and treated like part of the family. I work part-time with just two office days per week, so I have a flexible schedule. I’m happy to offer boarding on weekdays and weekends. In my home, pets are cared for in a calm, safe, and loving environment. I live in a two-bedroom house with a fully fenced garden, giving dogs a secure space for fresh air, play, and supervised outdoor time. The house also has a porch, which is helpful for managing entrances, drying muddy paws, and creating an extra buffer for safety. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, rest, and any specific instructions from their owner. If a dog is crate-trained or needs a crate for comfort or safety, I’m happy to accommodate that. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for while their owners are away.
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.
“Though Bella stayed for just a few hours , she was happy and had a good time. Jessica and Gareth were really helpful by responding to messages immediately. Also we were running late and they were kind enough to come out to take Bella. Bella enjoyed her time at their balcony and was relaxed. We will definitely book here again when we need to keep Bella in London.”
About: Ive looked after a range of different dogs, from all sizes all personality’s and all ages. I have walked dogs for neighbours and many short term jobs for 5 years, I’ve also dog sitted loads of times too because I just love dogs. I am very trusted by every owner and I put a lot of love and dedication into my work I am a stay at home mum so I am always free and always on walks or at home chilling.

My home is smoke free and all baby toys are out of the way so your dog is no hassle and can’t chew on anything that isn’t intended too. I will feed your dog at there normal scheduled time.
“We were very lucky that Gustavo’s delightful partner Stuart was free to dog-sit our Standard Poodle Otis at very short notice. Stuart was friendly, accommodating and a great communicator. Otis was a happy, tired, and well-cared for boy when we collected him. Many thanks and 100% recommend.”

About: I’ve had dogs as part of my family for my whole life, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your dog. I also have personal experience caring for my own dog, Beau, for 14 wonderful years. As he became a senior dog, I gained valuable experience in understanding and meeting the extra care, patience, attention, and comfort that older dogs need. I’m a reliable, caring, and responsible dog lover, and I will always treat your dog with the same love and care I would give my own. Their safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority, so you can feel confident that they will be in the very best hands with me. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and any specific instructions you provide. Dogs will always be kept on a lead when required, and when enjoying outdoor time at home, they will have access to a secure, locked garden to ensure they are safe and supervised. I know how much our dogs mean to us—they’re family—and I’ll do everything I can to make sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, loved, and safe while in my care. I work part-time, so my schedule can vary from week to week. However, on my days off, dog care is my priority, and I’m able to dedicate my time, attention, and care to the dogs I look after. I’ll always be clear about my availability and will only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. This means you can feel confident that your dog will receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship while they’re with me. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I understand how important it is to leave your dog with someone you can trust, and I will always care for them as if they were my own. I’m reliable, responsible, and attentive, and I will follow any routines, instructions, or specific requirements you have for your dog. Whether that includes feeding schedules, walking preferences, medication, or simply their favourite way to relax, I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and settled. For safety, dogs will always be kept on a lead when required, and any outdoor time at home will take place in a secure, locked garden. Your dog will always be supervised and cared for in a safe and loving environment. My aim is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing that your dog is in safe, caring, and trustworthy hands.
“Maria and her family are so sweet. They really took care of Louie like was their own. Louie is back home exhausted after a full day of walks and play with Ollie, the family's Cavapoo. He even cried when I picked him up, he didn't want to leave his new friend. We would love to use Maria's doggy daycare again!! Thank you xx”
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.
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.
About: I have been a dog owner for some 40 years and in that time have trained and owned for most large dogs from Spaniels to German Shepherds and Rottweilers to name a few. I also own a 13 year old German shepherd, who is good with all other dogs and also I sometimes foster dogs for Garbo's GSD rescue and German shepherd rescue elite at the moment. Your dogs will be walked daily and cared for as if they were my own. My garden is fully enclosed with a 6ft fence all round and they would be free to wander in and out of the back door as they please in perfectly safe surroundings. I have access to parks and country walks and enclosed dog walking spaces where your dogs can be let off the lead with out fear of escape. I have now taken early retirement so can give all my attention to your family member and can give them as much or as little attention as they require. I usually walk my own dog for 2 hours a day everyday come rain, snow or shine so having another dog would not affect my daily routine. My own dog is fed twice a day and walked for approximately 2 hours a day everyday either at Ockham common, Chertsey meads, Oxshott woods or esher woods. He is groomed once a month and basically he is spoilt rotten lol.

“Maple had a wonderful first walk with Darren. I have one sleepy and happy pup post-walk so thank you! As soon Darren walked through the door, Maple took an instant liking and was immediately relaxed and wagging her tail - it was as though they met before and were old friends! She was a big fan of Darren and trotted off to be walked which was lovely to see! Great communications throughout too. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“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 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.
“I am so grateful to Tara who is walking my dog Daisy (a Fox Terrier} regularly while I recover from a broken leg. She is reliable, punctual and flexible and Daisy loves her! I highly recommend Tara as a dog walker, she has a lovely gentle approach and Daisy is always so happy to see her!”
About: My name is Sophie and I am a 34 year-old Mum of two young children and one 7 year old cat. I’ve lived and worked in the borough since 2015 after moving in with my (now) husband who was born and raised in Kingston. Before pet sitting, I worked in Design and Primary Education, specialising in SEND support. I moved into pet sitting to enable me to both spend more time at home with my boys and more time with animals, which is something I have always loved. I have been professionally pet sitting since December 2022, building upon 15+ years of caring for both my pets, the pets of friends and work colleagues. Since then, I have been lucky enough to work with 70+ families in the area (many of whom are now wonderful regulars) and can cater for up to 6 visits a day (subject to booking availability). I am confident, caring and considerate and will always follow the lead of both you, the owner, and your beloved pets. I have helped to care for cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters and would love to expand this to reptiles, rodents, fish, birds and beyond. I’m am an adaptable and receptive learner and would love the opportunity to care for your furry/scaled friends! As an owner of a disabled pet, I am undaunted by additional and adaptive needs and am happy to discuss individualised care. During my visits (of 30 minutes), I will follow instruction and be lead by your pet (be they more playful, shy, nervous etc.) to ensure they have the most enjoyable time during your time away and you return to a healthy, happy pet. I update owners on each visit with photos and/or video updates to give you absolute peace of mind. I’m also happy to do odd jobs around the house (watering plants, sorting post, putting out bins etc.) so please don’t be afraid to ask. Please note my current hours of availability (inclusive of travel times): 07:00-09:00 Daily 09:30-11:30 (Monday- Friday, term time only due to childcare needs) 18:30-22:00 (Daily) * I am currently unable for long-term dog walking booking due to pre- existing bookings and childcare commitments throughout the year. My wonderful families often book several months in advance and my calendars are kept up to date weekly to reflect my availability * I live in the Coombe area (KT1) and am able to make visits within a 20 minute radius by bicycle (areas include Kingston-upon-Thames, Merton, Richmond-upon-Thames, Epsom and Ewell). I also have a car for emergency transportation. During my visit I will happily feed, groom, cuddle and play with your pet or, alternatively offer them a calm stroke or simply presence... whatever their personality would enjoy. I am attentive and will always do what is best for both you and your pets. I will clean bowls, top up water and food and clean litter trays as needed and keep you updated with photos and videos for your peace of mind. I am also happy to do jobs during my visit such as putting out bins on collection day and watering plants to make your life a little bit easier too. I am very happy to meet you and your pets beforehand if you would like me to be your sitter. I have a clear DBS (Criminal Record Check), which can be viewed upon request. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch. It would be lovely to find out more about you and your furry friends.
“Very pleased to find Andrew round the corner from us! He regularly walks our dog, Olive, he is very reliable and took the time to get to know her. He is very friendly and easy to communicate with.”
“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. 😊”
“Lexi has been super professional and reliable. She is always on time and accommodating when we’ve needed changes. Our Bruno loves her and enjoys his walks with her. She has learned quickly what Bruno needs for mental stimulation and he’s always ready for a nap after his walks. Lexi has been great at communicating with us and keeps us updated.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and currently have a wonderful dog called Fig with my husband Phil. Fig is 5 and is a happy, friendly pup. He loves new friends of pups & humans alike! We live next to Berrylands nature reserve so lots of long walks & sniffing opportunites for your doggos! Both my husband & I work in theatre so we work quite antisocial hours therefore have lots of daytimes free. Please feel free to get in touch :) I work in theatre so work anti-social, irregular hours therefore am likely to be free to look after your pup during the daytimes & overnight. I have a fenced garden and lots of grass at the front of the house to keep your fur babies entertained. I live very close to a Nature Reserve and close to the river for long walks.
“I would highly recommend John, he was quick to respond and very accommodating. John is a very calm and nice guy. Our puppy Coco was excited to head off on her walks with him - she is 8 months and sticks close to us or people she knows so for her to be so relaxed with John is a testament to his character. Thanks again John.”
About: I have always had a dog in my life as far back as I can remember, from Yorkshire Terriers to German Shepherds I love them all. My most recent dog sadly passed away after a long struggle with a heart murmur but she received the very best care until the very end. Currently I frequently look after out friend’s Maltipoo puppy who is just such a joy! I am currently taking some time off work to focus on my art which gives me plenty of time to spend time with dogs! I am available on weekdays anytime and some weekends. I have a fully fenced garden and no dogs of my own so your fur baby will receive my full care and attention! I would love to hear about your dogs routines and habits so that I can provide them the best care

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Saya received over the 4 days. Dominika was amazing from the start—great communication and very friendly, which made me feel completely at ease. Saya was clearly very well looked after, happy, and comfortable the whole time. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which showed she was enjoying herself and in safe hands. It’s obvious that Dominika genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. I would definitely recommend her and will 100% be using her again in the future. Thank you so much, Dominika, for taking such good care of Saya!”
“I left my whippet in Sally's hands and he was very well cared for. He went on walks, Sally made sure he was the most comfortable at night and I received regular updates with pictures. It was just like being at home for my dog and I'm sure he never even missed us at all!”
“Omg Eva was soo sweet and caring to our little old grumpy doggie, that she got instantly soo comfortable. Her two doggies were also very excited to welcome Tiki, and Eva was very good at ensuring they were introduced to each other in the most peaceful way possible. I'm sure Tiki will miss them dearly ❤️ . 100% recommend!”
“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.”
“This was the easiest booking I’ve ever made. Juste was amazing and took such good care of our boy. We were regularly updated with pictures and videos, which was really reassuring. We’re very happy with the service and will definitely book again. Thank you so much!”
“Beatriz and her family took great care of my Luigi whilst I was away! Unfortunately, he was unwell when I dropped him off and she administered all his medicine and sent me regular updates, which were all very reassuring! Luigi had a lovely time and I shall certainly reach out to Beatriz if ever in need again! Thank you so much!”
“Karen looked after our dog Eddie for almost a Week. Great communication from prior to confirmation of the booking and also when she was looking after him. He got lots of attention from Karen and her Family and was settled throughout the stay. Would definitely leave Eddie with Karen and her Family again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 11. I walk all the time and love to take dogs with me. I often house sit for friends when they go on holiday and need their pets looked after! I’m working part-time at the moment so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of pets. I go on long walks for photography and I love nature and a little furry company never hurts. A night in with a book and a pet by my side is my ideal night. I try to make pets feel comfortable by keeping to their usual routine. I make sure they’re fed, exercised, played with, and given lots of attention and care. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions and keep owners updated while they’re away.
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Ekaterina and her family. She sent lots of photos and videos and we could see how settled and well looked after he was. Highly recommended her!”
“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.”

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.
“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!”
