“Owen and Pepsi are the best! My six month old beagle, sissy, had so much fun with them. Owen sent me videos and pictures every day. I have already booked them for my next trip?”
“Mango spent the weekend with Gabriella and he came back super happy and tired. Gabriella was sharing regular updates including Photos with me and took Mango out on multiple walks. She took great care of Mango and we would definitely go back to her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Our 9month old Cockerpoo had the best time at Anke’s. He made some great friends with other lovely dogs. Anke kept us informed the whole way through with lots of videos, even gave him a bath and we knew he was taken great care of. We would definitely use her again.”
About: I'm an active, outdoorsy person who genuinely loves being around dogs. I take your dog's exercise seriously: proper walks, real time outside, and plenty of stimulation. My hands-on experience comes from regularly walking and caring for two very different dogs — a Staffordshire Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I’m currently working from home with good flexibility. I can work around the schedule for helping out. Weekends should be free in the day too. My flat is a cosy, well-kept one-bedroom on an upper floor — no balcony or outdoor space, but we’re just a 5-minute walk from a park, so dogs get outside plenty. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the flat, which is worth knowing for smaller or older dogs.
“Ronnie and his wife put me and my family at ease knowing our fur baby Hunter was cared for like we would. We got amazing photos and video updates daily which showed how happy and content Hunter was. I would not think twice about asking Ronnie to look after Hunter again as I know he will be perfectly fine. Absolutely fantastic dog boarding”
“Marcela looked after our Bobby, it appears he had a great time he really took to Marcela. I don't think you could get anyone better or more trustworthy than Marcela to carry out your dog's every needs. I will definitely be leaving Bobby with Marcela again.”
“Maria and Vernon were great in looking after snoopy. He was a happy and energetic boy when we picked him up. Maria sent us loads of pictures throughout. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”
“Leonor is a fantastic cat sitter! Super attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was such a relief knowing my cat was in good hands. I will definitely book again 🙌”
“Laura is a very friendly and extremely accomodating person who clearly loves caring for dogs. There's no doubt that I will be asking her to look after Otis again and if there were more stars on offer then she'd have them!”
“Mango was with Taffany (Siu Yung) for 2 days and she took excellent care of him. She took him for walks through out the day and kept us informed with regular updates with pictures and mesages. She took him out during the rain as well and blow dried him. One could only imagine if someone can be so loving and caring. Taffany and her family kept Mango super happy during his stay. Mango came back super happy after the stay. I would definitely recommend Taffany to anyone and everyone and looking forward for another stay in the future. Thank you so much for taking such a good care of Mango. Much appreciated 🙏”
“Christina was amazing with my dog. She regularly sent updates with pictures, videos and messages about her.y dog is a fussy eater but managed to get her to eat. My dog normally has anxiety, Christina managed to help her feel relaxed. Definitely booking Christina again. 😀”

“Diana was fantastic! She took such good care of our dog, Scout, who was very happy, and got on well with Diana's friendly doggie. They were quite a pair and had fun together. Diana's communication was also excellent. She was quick to respond and kept us updated with photos and messages. Highly recommend.”
“Max had a fantastic time staying with Kevin, Denise and their lovely children for the week. He was given all the attention, exercise and time to play that he needed and is used to. We got regular updates, photos and videos that showed us how he was getting on and what he was up to which was really helpful. They were considerate to our instructions and wishes in regards to Max's routine and needs which was highly appreciated. All in all a very successful stay. Would definitely recommend! 😁👍”
“Jeanett provided an exceptional dog-sitting experience for us, especially considering it was our first time leaving our furry friend. Her regular photo updates alleviated all our stress. Leo not only seemed happy but also genuinely comfortable in her care.”
“Andrea is a fabulous sitter 🤩 She took great care of Paco and gave him loads of attention and love. Great contact and many photo/video updates throughout the day. Paco didn’t even want to come back home, he just kept looking behind and pulling to go back 🤣 We will be definitely booking another request soon 🤗”

Top rated and highly recommend.”
About: I don’t have direct experience with cats yet, but I’m calm, patient, and a quick learner — and I know cats appreciate exactly that. I’m happy to follow your routine to the letter: feeding schedules, litter, any quirks or preferences.

Thank you both so much for everything you've done!”
About: have owned cats my whole life and have extensive experience caring for a wide range of personalities and needs. This includes cats who will eat anything and everything, as well as those who are extremely picky with their food and require a bit more patience and understanding. I have also cared for cats who struggle to trust new people, and I know how important it is to give them space, time, and a calm environment to help them feel safe. In addition, I have experience looking after a cat with health issues such as overgrooming, so I am comfortable following specific care instructions and monitoring behaviour closely. I genuinely enjoy working with cats and always aim to provide gentle, attentive care so owners can feel reassured their cat is in safe hands.

About: As headline says, I have loved cats for years, I have done some volunteering, visited cat cafes and most importantly taken care of pet cats or most of my life and neighbours' cats when on holiday. I have taken care of ailing cats and newborns. I adore them and usually have had a good response from them too. I don't mind a bit of rough and tumble play time and don't shy away from a scratch. I love grooming them and tend to read their body language and vocal signifiers quickly in order to adapt to their comfort. Cats are all individually characters and I respect that and value creating those relationships as they come.

I am an experienced cat owner. I have 2 Bengal cats - 8 & 5 years old - they are my precious babies & I always worry about leaving them when I go travelling - its always hard to leave them.

As I currently work from home part time, I am flexible with visiting times. I have a 1 y.o. toddler who goes to nursery 3 x a week. I would need to take him along with me on visits on Tuesdays & Wednesdays. I have clear DBS certificate
“Steve was very reliable, punctual and did a great job. There was a situation where we were watching our cat on camera without any food left and looking for food.

“Ewelina is an amazing cat sitter! Super friendly, communicative and very accommodating; Came as a recommendation from a friend, and stepped in last minute, when I had to travel unexpectedly.

About: I grew up in a family and we always had dogs as pets and have always loved every kind dog. I also have always looked after my friends dogs when needed and treated them like it was my own dog. In recent years I have assisted a family member who’s looks after dogs on a day care and boarding basis, in doing so I have gained experience of looking after all types of dogs I attend night college 1/2 a week at present and therefore I’m available most days and weekends to look after a dog of any kind I have my very own large apartment and am able to accommodate a dog easily and I’m surrounded by open spaces to walk the dog insuring any exercise and toilet needs are met.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs regularly for the past 3 years, mostly looking after two senior dogs for one friend and a young puppy for another. This has given me experience with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, from gentle senior care to playful puppy stages. From age 15 I cared for dogs within my family, supporting with walks, feeding, and keeping them settled while owners were away. In addition, I‘ve cared for my family kitten, and as an indoor cat, he required consistent feeding, litter care, playtime, and a calm presence, something I’m very comfortable providing. Working from home, enables me to give consistent attention throughout the day and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Every dog or cat in my care is treated with patience, attentiveness, and love. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care, supervision, companionship and regular walks or drop-ins throughout the day. I’m flexible during weekdays and available most weekends, making it easy to fit pet care naturally into my routine. When caring for dogs or cats in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions provided. I ensure doors and gates are always secured, keep environments tidy and safe. If crate training is part of their routine, I’m comfortable supporting that in a gentle and positive way. My focus is always on providing a safe, consistent, and loving environment while you’re away.

About: I have owned a range of different breeds of dogs such as boxer, staffy and English terrier and I have loved every minute with them. I am happy to cater for all dog sizes and personalities. Let me know if you have any special requirements! I have taken care of loads of different types of animals from dogs, cats, lizards, Snakes, Tarantulas, Rabbits, Rats , dwarf hamsters and many more. I absolutely love animals and around most of the time at very short notice (free of charge) I prefer evening work but am happy to not be choosy haha ☺️ I have owned dogs for many years and I am very happy with the care and training I have provided them throughout the years. Looking after a pet isn’t just about loving them it’s also training them to maintain their safety. I would happily fight another dog in order to protect yours as I couldn’t imagine putting my own pet in harms way let alone another’s pet. Of course I stay vigilant so hopefully that will never get to that point.
“Reallly good with my 8month Cockapoo, he seemed well walked and rested and was kept frequently up to date with pics and reassurance! Will be happy to use again without hesitation 🙏”
About: I’ve always had a love for dogs and plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. A few years ago, I spent a couple of years dog sitting, looking after dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which helped me build confidence and understanding in their individual needs. Alongside this, I’ve had family dogs for over 12 years, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my everyday life. From feeding routines and walks to playtime, companionship, and understanding their behaviour, I’m experienced in providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment for every dog in my care. At Lisa’s Dog Care, I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and truly at home. Lisa’s Dog Care is my full-time commitment, allowing me to provide dedicated, hands-on care throughout the entire day. My routine is fully centred around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive constant attention, supervision, and companionship. Each day begins with morning routines including feeding, walks, and playtime, setting a calm and happy tone. Throughout the day, I am always present, providing one-to-one attention, regular exercise, and plenty of interaction, adapting to each dog’s individual needs and routine. Afternoons and evenings continue with walks, feeding, and relaxation time, making sure every dog feels comfortable and settled. For overnight stays, I am on hand at all times to ensure dogs feel safe, secure, and truly at home. As this is my full-time role, dogs are never left unattended, and their wellbeing, happiness, and safety are always my top priority. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities at Lisa’s Dog Care. I provide a secure, fully fenced garden where dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air safely at all times. Inside, dogs are cared for in a calm, home-from-home setting where they can relax and feel comfortable. I carefully manage introductions and interactions to ensure all dogs get along happily. I also have my friendly Chow Chow, BooBooBear, who loves the company of other dogs and helps create a welcoming, social environment for your fur baby. Whether your dog enjoys playtime or prefers a quieter companion, I make sure every dog feels safe, settled, and cared for like part of the family.

About: I’m a 31-year-old private piano teacher with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care and walks during the mornings and early afternoons. I usually start work around 2pm, so I’m available for daytime walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets (except Wednesdays). Sundays are currently completely free until August, making me available for longer visits and pet sitting throughout the day. I'm also available for house-sitting. I’ve loved dogs my whole life and had my own mixed-breed Chihuahua, Lady, for 17 years, so I understand how important patience, affection, and routine are. I’ve also spent time caring for my grandparents’ German Shepherd, Nero, during summer holidays growing up, which gave me experience with larger breeds as well as small dogs. Since I’m unable to have pets in my rented flat, spending time with dogs again would genuinely make me very happy. I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and receives lots of attention, playtime, and affection while they’re with me. I work as a private piano teacher for around 5 hours a day, usually in the afternoons, which leaves me with plenty of time for pet care, walks, companionship, and house sitting. My schedule is flexible, and outside of teaching hours I’m able to spend most of the day with your pet. I’m also happy to stay overnight in your home for house sitting, helping your pet feel comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. Sundays are currently fully available until August, and I’m unavailable on Wednesdays. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine are very important to me. Since I’m offering house sitting and care in the owner’s home rather than boarding, I aim to keep everything as familiar and stress-free as possible for your pet. I’ll carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any specific preferences you have. I’m calm, patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means active walks and playtime or simply keeping them company and making them feel safe while you’re away.
“Patricia was absolutely wonderful — kind, friendly, punctual, and very efficient throughout. Klopp was clearly comfortable and happy in her care, and is now enjoying a nice sleep lol. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book again!”
About: Growing up I have cared for my own pets, neighbours pets, dont shy away from the muck work, grooming and other pet requirements. Will care to your extended family member as if they were my own. I am quite confident with different animals having cared. Love and care with deep genuine attention to the extended family member and will give you some trusted peace of mind that you have left your cared one in safe kind hands. I work full time and have alternative Mondays, Wednesdays and weekends off. Therefore I am flexible in how I can help you out. Cat/dog overnight homeowner stays, happy to house your cat for an overnight stay (wouldn't be fair to a dog to come and stay in my flat as I wouldn't be able to care for it throughout the day unless it's a one night or over night weekend stay when I am off. As I'd be able to take out on walks- have two beautiful greenspaces to chose from for long or short walks. I live in a flat with a balcony, I would be happy to house cats, smaller pets in their cage/tank throughout the week, but would have smaller availability for small dogs/medium dogs, due to full time work and I wouldn't be comfortable leaving them in a confined space without the care and attention they would require.
“I can’t thank Jade enough for the amazing care she gave my dog while I was recovering from surgery. For a full week, she stepped in and treated my pup as if he were her own—always punctual, reliable, and full of warmth and energy. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly passionate about animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Jade. She made a stressful time so much easier—and my dog absolutely adores her! Thank you again. Beata”

About: Hey, I’m Maria 👋🏼 I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 5 years old and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I have volunteered with Guide Dogs and have also taken responsibility for caring for my own dogs, as well as family and friends’ pets—always giving them the love and attention they deserve as part of the family 🐶 Friends, family, and neighbours have relied on me to care for their pets, whether that means daily walks, playtime, or making sure they feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I treat each one with patience, care, and of course, plenty of cuddles & affection 🐾 My husband & I recently bought a new house so I don’t live with my family dog anymore but we would love our own dog in the future! 🫶🏼 Please note, as I am new to Rover, my prices are introductory prices for now & may be subject to change! I work full time as a teacher, so I’m available for dog walks from 4:15–8:30pm during the week, except Wednesday. I am available for dog walks all day Saturday & Sunday. I’m available for boarding everyday besides Wednesdays, however I am at work from Monday-Friday 8am-4:15pm, therefore your dog would be at home with my husband during these times, as he works from home. I live in a house with a large, fully fenced garden & am also a 5 minute walk from a large country park, perfect for dog walks! If it is your preference, I can crate your dog overnight, or they’re welcome to sleep upstairs on the bedroom floor next to me, or downstairs in a cozy dog bed/on the rug. My priority is making sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for just like they would at home.
About: 🐶 Dogs have always been part of my life! With years of caring for my own, plus family and neighborhood pups, I bring patience, experience, and lots of love to every dog I meet. 🏡 Because I’m home full-time, your pup gets plenty of attention and care all day long! From playtime to walks and cuddles, I make sure each dog feels right at home. 🐾 A safe and happy home away from home! My space is fully dog-proofed, with secure fencing, cozy resting spots, and lots of love. You can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands
“Friendly and communicative throughout. Layla was comfortable with him and everything went smoothly overall. As Layla can sometimes be a little stubborn when meeting new walkers, a bit more confidence and experience handling hesitant dogs would be beneficial, but he was patient and keen to make sure she was comfortable. Thank you for looking after her.”
About: I have dog experience for just over a year now I have looked after my families and friends dogs over the year with walking, dog sitting giving them food while they have been away or general walking the dog if the person not able to walk the dog for any reason I have looked after small and medium dogs size I currently work full time during the weekday and my shifts are rotate every week from early one week to late the following week. With this in mind I’m flexible before work so I can do early walk or a late walk and general drop in visit before I am fully available and flexible on weekends I'll will ensure your pets are safe, loved, and well-cared for, providing constant supervision, following routines, and creating a secure, comfortable environment for your pets
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life having been raised with them in the house and attending to all their needs throughout the years. This includes raising dogs from puppies, teaching them tricks, monitoring their diet, going for walks, attending vet visits and caring for them their whole lives. I am currently between roles thus very flexible when it comes to the day/week routine. This may change in future but I remain available. My home is set up for both my cat and dog, from their discreet bedding (which is regularly changed), food and food bowls (all labelled with expiry date), grooming brushes and toys. This also includes a clear schedule for walking, feeding and play time. I am guilty of leaving what I am doing to attend to their needs.
About: I've initially helped dog owners at Borrow my Doggy then we got a shih tzu ourselves 5 years ago. I can dog sit, walk or board small to medium female dogs Mondays and Friday and also weekends. I have a garden, always go for at least an hour park walk and plenty to play times and cuddles. I have lots of toys too! I work from home Mondays and Friday and free over the weekend. My work pattern is very flexible that can fit walks at different times. I have a fenced garden and a very friendly Shih Tzu to keep them company. We go to the park or woods depending on the weather, play with toys and have lots of cuddles.
“Louisa took great care of our frenchie, Vinnie this week, we were so relieved to find someone we can trust! As soon as Vinnie met Louisa he was excited and happy to meet her so we knew he was in good hands.”
About: I cared for my Labrador, Poppy, for 15 wonderful years, from her playful puppy days to her golden senior years. In her later years, I managed her medications, supported her with mobility challenges, and made sure she was comfortable and happy every day. My experience has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to spot when a dog needs extra care or reassurance. Whether it’s playtime, a gentle walk, or just companionship, I’ll treat your pet with the same love and respect I gave Poppy. I work from home as a freelance artist, which means my schedule is very flexible. I can easily adjust my day to provide walks, visits, or overnight care whenever needed, weekdays or weekends. Pet care can fit seamlessly into my routine at the moment. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I make sure they always have fresh water, food, and any medication on time according to your wishes. I double check that doors and gates are secure, keep harmful items out of reach, and pay attention to their body language so I can quickly respond to their needs. My goal is to create a calm, reassuring environment so your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away.
About: I've been surrounded by dogs my whole life! Unfortunately I am unable to have one of my own, so I thought in the meantime I share all the love I have with someone elses pooch who needs it! I provide a good mixture of discipline, adventure and love <3 I work part-time mostly from home, so I have ample time to take care of your doggies! I wake up early to walk them where we can walk around a large park in Honrchurch. I enjoy hiking and exploring the UK so your pup could benefit from some amazing adventures! We can sit together watching TV in our conservatory or sunbathe in our garden. I have a fenced garden. Our rooms are separated so they can be comfortable in one or two spaces. Our home is clean and tidy with minimal risk. I will be the sole caretaker of your furry friend.
About: I absolutely love all animals and am a proud mother of 4 gorgeous cats, oldest one is Leo 16 years old (domestic) Matisse (british shorthair ) Monkey (british shorthair) and Arya (british shorthair ) They keep me laughing with their own unique personality and could not imagine them not being in my life, I love playing with them seeing them chasing around. I have looked after a friends shih tzu on many occasions, feeding and walking. Highlighting most importantly lots of love and cuddles. Which would be the case for all my 4 legged friends I will look after in the near future. Feel safe in knowing I will take the upmost care and give my undivided attention to all their needs however big or small. I am currently working part time so do have most of my day free, I am available from 9am until 8pm. And not south of London, apologies for this as I do not drive. I care for my beautiful fluff balls very much as I treat them with respect and give them endless love and cuddles, even when they are naughty.

“Mango spent the weekend with Gabriella and he came back super happy and tired. Gabriella was sharing regular updates including Photos with me and took Mango out on multiple walks. She took great care of Mango and we would definitely go back to her in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I'm an active, outdoorsy person who genuinely loves being around dogs. I take your dog's exercise seriously: proper walks, real time outside, and plenty of stimulation. My hands-on experience comes from regularly walking and caring for two very different dogs — a Staffordshire Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I’m currently working from home with good flexibility. I can work around the schedule for helping out. Weekends should be free in the day too. My flat is a cosy, well-kept one-bedroom on an upper floor — no balcony or outdoor space, but we’re just a 5-minute walk from a park, so dogs get outside plenty. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the flat, which is worth knowing for smaller or older dogs.
“Maria and Vernon were great in looking after snoopy. He was a happy and energetic boy when we picked him up. Maria sent us loads of pictures throughout. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”
“Leonor is a fantastic cat sitter! Super attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was such a relief knowing my cat was in good hands. I will definitely book again 🙌”
“Mango was with Taffany (Siu Yung) for 2 days and she took excellent care of him. She took him for walks through out the day and kept us informed with regular updates with pictures and mesages. She took him out during the rain as well and blow dried him. One could only imagine if someone can be so loving and caring. Taffany and her family kept Mango super happy during his stay. Mango came back super happy after the stay. I would definitely recommend Taffany to anyone and everyone and looking forward for another stay in the future. Thank you so much for taking such a good care of Mango. Much appreciated 🙏”
“Maria had a lovely time with Crumpet and came back super happy! Maria sent us lots of updates and photos which was great and was really quick to respond to us. We will book again!”
About: Dogs have been the heart of my home for nearly two decades. After 14 wonderful years with my beloved Staffy, Tyson, I welcomed Titan into my life three years ago. Titan is a friendly, neutered Staffy-mix who truly lives up to the "nanny dog" reputation. I know how hard it is to be away from your fur-baby. I provide regular updates and photos throughout the day so you can see exactly how much fun they are having. We can't wait to welcome your pup into our home! Safety & Supervision First As a stay-at-home mum, I am home throughout the day. My husband Gurpal works from home two days a week, this means your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. I have two children 3 and 5 years old who have grown up with dogs their whole life. Our Daily Routine Your dog won't just be "watched"—they will be part of the family. Our days are filled with: Active Play: Frequent garden games and mental stimulation. Daily Walks: Regular outings to stretch our legs and explore. Secure Environment: I have a large family home and a garden that is significantly larger than average—fully fenced and perfect for zoomies! Home Comforts: Whether it’s lounging in our spacious living area or sunbathing in the garden, I treat our guests exactly like our own.
“This is the second time we have used Louisa & Sham to look after our Staffy, Storm. They sent me updates and photos every day. They welcomed Storm into their home and treated her like their own. Would definitely recommend.”
“Absolutely delighted to have found Darwin - he and his family (and their own dog) looked after our Lab, Cosmo, for a week - and Cosmo had a fantastic time. Darwin and his fam were really friendly and made sure that our Cosmo was right at home. Great communication throughout and we felt completely at ease on our hols knowing that Cos was happy and relaxed. Thanks, Darwin!”
“Nicola and her family looked after our dog Bandit over Christmas for us. They kept in touch with photos. Bandit settled in very well and I think he will be more than happy to go back again. Very nice people and we felt very comfortable leaving Bandit with them. Will definitely use them again x”
“Hands down the best dog sitters/ boarders I have ever booked for my dog Marple- and I have booked with many! Marple is an extremely high energy parson Russell and I was so impressed with how amazing and attentive Brian was in sending me lots of updates and photos and I was not anxious at all. I will definitely book him again. Marple was so well cared for and happy when she was dropped back and Brian had also spotted a potential injury that I had overlooked. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”

“Rahul and Aish have been the absolute best!! Cosmo has not been to a new sitter in a while and he has been very anxious to leave me. We have been doing several weeks of introductory sessions for us to easy cosmo into being left. He is slowly getting better whenever I leave him. I have tried using several different people on this app and they all failed to recognise and come up with a plan to ease Cosmos anxiety. I even had cosmo neutered and they assisted me with the entire process, even making themselves available in the day to talk to me and calm my own anxieties. Rahul and Aish are highly skilled at what they do, I get video and pictures for every visit. If you want peace of mind and skilled carers don’t hesitate to contact them!!”

“Elisa was fantastic. We trusted her with our beloved Twix whilst we were away on holiday. She sent regular updates and pictures. We could tell from the pictures Twix was having a great time and being looked after. Daily walks and plenty of activity with Elsie’s own dog. We’re really pleased we went with Elisa and the service she’s provided. Would recommend and use again.”
