“Marina and her daughter were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. They came to meet us prior to the sitting to make sure everyone was comfortable. During the sitting Marina sent us lots of photos and updates - all in all exactly what we wanted and we will definitely use Marina again!”
“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Shuk as our cat sitter. She was kind, reliable, and clearly cared so much about our cats, following all instructions carefully and giving us real peace of mind while we were away. Coming home to happy, relaxed cats says everything — we would happily recommend Shuk to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely caring cat sitter. Thank you again, Shuk!”
“Rachel is a true star! She is the first sitter for our cats and they loved her! She was very disciplined and lovely with our cats. She was sending me updates and pictures every day which made me feel happy and connected. My cats loved her and I am sure they will miss her ❤️”
About: I've been a pet owner and lover my entire life, from gerbils and hamsters to multiple family dogs. Working as a full time home-based creative freelancer, I am able to provide significant quality time for long walks or play time on home visits. Based near Plumstead Common, I love taking advantage of the lovely parks and community areas to exercise my own pup and others. Offering drop in check ups, dog walking, and day care options, I am directly adjacent to multiple green spaces, including enclosed dog park areas. Depending on your dog's requirements, they will get group playtime with other known and well-socialised pups, or one-on-one playtime with toys or on long leads to ensure they get to use their energy up safely. I will also incorporate your training requirements (commands or other behaviour cues) to make sure your dog's routine is maintained and consistent. I have experience with energetic puppies in training to senior dogs who need to move at their own pace but still need attention and exercise. Any questions or special needs, just let me know! I am a home-based creative worker, so I have a lot of freedom to adjust my schedule to help with your pup. I'm available for home visits or walks after 11am in the Plumstead area, and will ensure your fur friend gets a lot of quality time in the local parks and green spaces. I have my own dog so pet care is already built into my daily routines, including multiple walks and playtime at the local dog park. I'm highly conscientious and respectful of your home and spaces. I'm also a calm, confident dog person who is good with breeds of all sizes. If you would like your dog to socialise with other pups, I have a small, super friendly whippet/terrier cross who is very well trained and calm with other dogs, but loves to play. If you want your pup to have one-on-one time with their walker, they will get it. My home has a large fenced garden, in case urgent alternative location sitting is needed.
“Sacha & Gina were perfect cat-sitters. They were friendly, communicative, cared for our cat Soda perfectly & gave us daily updates which made us feel like she was in great hands. We’d definitely have Sacha & Gina look after Soda again & would reccomend them to any other pet parents.”
“Excellent cat sitter. She followed all instructions perfectly, kept us updated throughout, and took great care of our cats, who were happy and relaxed when we returned. The house was spotless, the litter trays were impeccably maintained, and she even went above and beyond by helping with a few extra household matters while we were away. Despite the short visits, she made sure to play with the cats. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her.”
“Sinead was amazing with Kumo. She was incredibly attentive and I had zero worries throughout the day. Can’t recommend her enough! She made sure she had enough water during the heatwave and made sure that if she went out for a pee break she was in the shade and then made sure she was indoors and kept her engaged! Will rebook soon”
“I can't rate Emily highly enough. She took amazing care of Elsa whilst I was away. Emily has a gentle way with cats and a maybe a touch of the cat whisperer as even my nervous, wary of new people, hatea everyone, scardy cat warmed to Emily.”
“Kay took great care of my cat and really spent time to keep my cat company, feed and play with her. Kay kept my place clean as well which was not asked. I can tell she genuinely loves animals. From the photos and vidoes she sent to me, I can see my cat loves her too. I can recommend her to any pet owners and will return for future services.”

“I highly recommend Marie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. She took amazing care of my two Sphynx kittens and dogy while I was away travelling with my son. I received regular photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind. My pets were happy, well cared for, and my home was left clean and tidy.My pets was very happy.”
“We were very grateful Shivanjali could help us with a drop-in last minute, she was also early which was lovely for us as it meant we had a little extra time out of the house.”
“Anika has been amazing looking after our little Biggie. She has been extremely reliable & flexible. Biggie has loved spending time with her. I can not recommend her highly enough. Thank you Anika”
About: I have cared for family and friends dogs over several years, including puppies and high-energy dogs. I’m confident handling a range of breeds and personalities, and I provide calm, reliable care tailored to each dogs routine. This includes regular feeding, structured walks and plenty of attention to keep dogs and cats happy and comfortable. I also provide regular updates so owners feel reassured while their dog/cat is in my care. Pet care fits into my daily routine very naturally as I regularly look after dogs and cats through, walks, drop ins, and sitting. I plan my day around each animals needs, including feeding times, exercise, play and rest. I make sure every pet gets attention, consistency and care that fits their routine so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m my home, dogs are cared for in a safe environment with access to a fenced garden for supervised outdoor time. I also live near a local park, which is great for walks and socialising when appropriate. I follow each pets routine, including feeding, exercise, and rest to help them feel settled and at ease. In a pet owners home, I make sure to respect their space while providing attentive care, walks, feeding and companionship as needed. I also provide regular updates so owners feel reassured while their pet is in my care.
“Agnieszka is a kind person with a genuine love for animals. She looked after my cat so well that Moya didn’t notice I was away. Agnieszka went above and beyond my requests to make sure Moya was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would happily trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter.”
“Pat is amazing. So kind and considered with how she approached the care of our cat. She was incredibly flexible to suit the needs of the cat and went the extra mile every day with how she kept us updated. It's obvious she's a huge animal lover and takes care of a pet in her care as if it were her own.”

Harriet is such a star! My dog is very sentimental, she doesn’t like everyone to take her for walks especially particularly about letting the harness on her. I had to emergency travel so I had no choice but ask for help and pray that the person would be able to help and make a bond with Lady in such a short amount of time. I was super lucky I found Harriet, Lady loved her from the first second and seeing that I was able to focus on my family and I was able to focus on my family when they needed me. Forever grateful for her
Josephine took excellent care of my cat. It was clear that Moya felt comfortable and happy in her care. Josephine updated me with regular photos and messages so I could feel relaxed and sure that everything is fine. She is absolutely a reliable and caring person and cat sitter.
Our pet sitter did an excellent job looking after our cat, especially during the recent extreme hot weather. She was reliable, caring, and made sure our cat stayed comfortable and well cared for despite the challenging conditions. We really appreciated the regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about animals, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommended!
Marina was a great sitter for Phoebe whilst I was away. She took great care to care for Phoebe the way I requested and communicated throughout. She also took care of a couple of unforeseen incidents what I greatly appreciated. It was comforting to know that when I'm away so much attention and care it given to my kitty. Thank you Marina!
Thank you Lauren for taking care of Noodles! She communicated with us well and made sure to follow our notes. I really appreciate her updates during the visits. its our first time leaving Noodles and Lauren has been really responsive and assured us he’s doing well. Would recommend and certainly book again!
Nadya was brilliant with Henry. Super communicative and quick to respond, exactly what you need. She did two drop-ins and a walk, and he took an immediate liking to her which honestly says it all. Really reassuring to know he was in such good hands. Will 100% be booking again!
Gabby was excellent. We receive daily detailed updates with pictures every night. One of my cats, who’s really shy, was actually out and about only 3 days after she started seeing them. That really helped me make the best of my holidays, since most of the time I’m thinking no about my cat, who usually doesn’t get along with basically anybody. She played with them and made sure bowls were cleaned and empty cans disposed properly. I would 100% recommend her and will defo use her services again.
Ana is an absolutely fantastic cat sitter. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants true peace of mind while they’re away. Her communication was brilliant from start to finish, and I loved receiving her daily updates and photos — they were thoughtful, detailed, and showed just how well she cared for my cat Winston. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals, and my cat was relaxed, happy, and so well looked after. I’ll definitely be booking her again. Thank you!

Abby is a fantastic catsitter. She is friendly and professional, and we felt very comfortable leaving our cats in her care. She sent regular detailed updates during our week away, and came up with creative ways to entertain our cats and keep them hydrated and cool during the heatwave. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Abby - you get a really high level of service and great attention to detail.

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Greenwich pet parents with similar pet households.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Greenwich choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
