“Laura sat for us at quite short notice and she was fabulous! Our German Shepherd is a large bundle of energy and Laura made sure all of her needs were met- even with the hot temperatures!! We loved getting regular updates and seeing the Frankie was having a wonderful time whilst we were away and it was so comforting to know she was being so well cared for in her own environment. Laura came and met us and Frankie before the sit to make sure everyone was happy, and was completely professional from the minute we met her. Thank you so much Laura, we're so lucky to have found you 😊”
About: Hi my name is Caitlyn I have just recently qualified in level 2&3 animal management and have been dog sitting & walking for many years around my studies! I have just recently finished a First Aid and CPR course! I enjoy taking puppers on walks to the park and fields and love giving lots and lots of cuddles as well as a good game of fetch! I have grownup around dogs and cats of all breeds and am confident in taking care of any breed and size! I work part time and am very flexible with the hours I can look after your animals - I can provide early morning walks and dog sit to most hours of the day I have a large fenced yard and a very friendly dog called Skye so there is lots of room to run around and play - if your dog doesn't like other animals there is also the option of keeping my dog separated for the duration of your puppers stay
“Aww Amy was amazing all round - such a nice girl and my dogs absolutely loved her. Felt so at ease leaving them with her for the weekend - would love to have her mind them again soon 😍”
“I highly recommend Nat !! It was the best decision ever. I felt relieved for 10 days while Nat was taking care of my kitten. She did an amazing job. She stayed with her all days and played with her a lot, and of course she made sure she had plenty of fresh food and water. She sent me lots of photos and videos, and I knew from day one that she was the right person for my cat. She's such a lovely girl, too. Thank you for everything, Nat. Chanel misses you and looking forward for another "baby" sitting. Xxxx”
“Kelsie was absolutley fantastic and looked after Chanel so well! I had updates throughout the night and was able to relax at our wedding party knowing Chanel was being well looked after by the lovely Kelsie! Thank you so much for looking after our little girl for the evening, we appreciate you so much! 💖”
“Laura was fantastic with our two dogs and treated them like they were her own! She gave us plenty of updates and pictures of two very happy looking dogs. We would highly recommend Laura!”
About: I have lifelong experience with dogs, particularly large and powerful breeds. Having owned and cared for Rottweilers, Cane Corsos, Labrador Retrievers, and Dogues de Bordeaux, I understand the unique needs, behaviours, and personalities of big dogs and feel completely confident handling them. Whether your dog is energetic and needs plenty of exercise or prefers a slower, more relaxed pace, I tailor my care to suit their individual needs. I provide reliable, patient, and loving care, treating every dog as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, but my experience with large breeds means owners of bigger dogs can have complete peace of mind knowing their pet is in capable hands. Which as a large dog owner I know can be incredibly difficult to find. I also have experience caring for puppies, helping reinforce basic training and good habits through consistency and positive interactions, as well as providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs who may need extra patience and understanding. My priority is always your dog’s safety, happiness, and wellbeing. Whether it’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, you can trust that your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, and the highest standard of care while you’re away. I am currently working part time, which mostly consists of a 6am-2pm shift on a Wednesday, a 2pm-10pm shift on a Thursday and a flexible weekend shift. I am happy and hppe to see to your dogs on not only the days I’m not in work, but also in the hours I’m not working on the days that I am in work. When caring for your pet in your home I will aim to keep the dogs routine as close to their usual. If you have preferred times of toilet breaks/ walks or any preferred walking destinations or rules I will adhere to your wishes and what is best for the dog.
“We couldn't have asked for a better house-sitter than Jordan. When he came to meet us and our dog, he was so polite and friendly, and clearly wanted to know all about her needs and routines. He provided lots of photos and updates throughout the time we were away. We got home to a very happy dog and a very clean and tidy house. He was extremely respectful of our home and attentive to our pet. We'd definitely ask Jordan to come and stay again! Highly recommend.”
“Josh and his partner are attentive to Odins needs, give continued updates throughout the house sitting term and are a pleasure instilling total reassurance you’ve left your dog in great hands. Highly recommended and will be using again without issue “ thank you “ 🤩”
About: I have had dogs all my adult life from a rescue greyhound and to working 10yrs with Guide dogs for the blind as a puppy walker I work two days a week sun mon lates for Sainsburys The rest of the week I am free and flexible to help you out Our home has dog fencing It is grassed we have plenty of toys and a quiet separate sleeping/ feeding area Lots of lead walks and fun
“We booked her for 4 nights, and she was amazing! She sent us photos and videos every day, so we could enjoy our holiday without any worries. She’s very friendly and lovely — we’ll definitely ask her again next time we go on holiday!”
“Outstanding!! That is the only word to describe the excellent service Natalie provides. I left my 5 year old Weimaraner Jerry for the 1st time for a family holiday with Natalie house sitting. I was nervous about leaving her but I needn’t have worried. Throughout our trip Natalie kept me up to date with messages, photos and videos of Jerry. Jerry had plenty of walks in her favourite places, play and cuddles. In fact I’m not sure she entirely missed us due to the high level of care and attention Natalie gave her. Even when snow and ice conditions meant it was impossible for Jerry to be walked, Natalie made sure Jerry had plenty to keep her happy and provided brain stimulation games and toys to keep her occupied and completely content. I really do feel like Natalie goes above and beyond to care. We returned home to a very calm and content dog thanks to Natalie. I even think Natalie may have provided an additional bit of lead training as Jerrys lead pulling has improved too. I will definitely be using Natalie’s service again and would highly recommend anyone to do the same.”
About: I grew up on a farm and love having pets around. My partner Ana had a similar childhood and became a Vet. Our friends leave their pets with us when they go on holidays, so we are used to having animals in and out of the house. We try to only have one family at a time to avoid unnecessary stress on pets that don't know eachother. I work fully remote with flexible hours. I can take your dog out for walks during the day or keep a close eye on your pet if required. Being separated from your pet can be stressful and we know that first hand, but they will be treated as family and we'll give you frequent updates throughout their stay. Though we will have to agree what too many updates would look like, so I don't end up spamming you with too many of them. We have a friendly neighbourhood and a fairly large fenced and secure garden which we are aiming to cat proof soon as well. We have our own cat, Lizzie, who is very clingy with everyone she meets.
“Matthew was absolutely wonderful and we knew from our initial messages that he would take the utmost care or our cocker spaniel,Freya. We explained that we were travelling up from Portsmouth the evening before for my Mum’s funeral so we needed someone to spend the whole day ‘house sitting ‘. He arrived at 8 am and straight away I knew that he would be perfect . He was so sensitive and compassionate , offering sympathy and condolences for my loss. He immediately began interacting with Freya , who bonded with him really quickly. Throughout the day he sent ‘pupdates’ with superb pictures and videos of the two of them playing ‘fetch’ and doing tricks in the garden. He was fabulously understanding about the timescale of his stay , saying that he was happy to stay longer with Freya if needed whilst we attended Mum’s wake. When Matthew was leaving , Freya had formed such an attachment , she wanted to follow him and go with him !!🤣🐾 We cannot fault him at all.👍 He went ‘over and above’ what was required in putting us at ease and in making Freya’s day a lovely one . If we need a ‘house sitter’ when we return north we will have no hesitation in contacting Matt..He was brilliant ! Thankyou so much !!!🥰xx”
“We are so happy that Viv and Nick looked after our 12 year old dog Max. Max can get anxious and is usually only minded by our son and so it was really important that we found someone who was caring, friendly, reliable and trustworthy. Viv and Nick were all of these and more. They responded quickly to messages before they looked after him and we also met beforehand. Over the weekend that they looked after Max they took really good care of him and the house. They sent videos and pictures of Max which was very reassuring to see and also good to see that Max was doing great without us. We highly recommend Viv and Nick to anyone looking for pet care, and we absolutely hope to use them again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs on and off whilst being at University. I love meeting new dogs and walking them and tailoring my care for different needs. I have a senior dog myself, so I am used to caring for more temperamental and frightened dogs with sight and sound problems. I also have a 1 year old puppy who is full of energy and needs lots of attention, but he is scared of other dogs. This makes me very adaptable for walks and care. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for caring for your dogs! My shifts are very flexible and I am adaptable to most schedules! I am able to tailor the environment for the dog’s needs, whether that be playful or peaceful. I provide a secure and safe environment.
“Vivien was great with our dog Ringo. Daily updates and pictures were sent. Ringo had a great time and settled in well with her! It’s evident that Vivien has lots of experience with dogs. Would definitely leave Ringo with Vivien again. Thanks a lot!”
“Molly was so calm and relaxed throughout and kept us reassured that Ramsay was on his best behaviour. Clearly has experience with bigger dogs which was helpful with our big boisterous puppy. Definitely will book again!”
About: Hi! I’m a passionate dog lover based in the local area, and I’d love to care for your dog as if they were my own. I share my home with Hugo, my friendly and affectionate Staffie cross, who has truly cemented my love for dogs. Through him, I’ve gained hands-on experience with day-to-day care, exercise needs, and understanding each dog’s unique personality. I really enjoy spending time outdoors, whether that’s long countryside walks, relaxed strolls around the neighbourhood, or letting dogs explore safely and happily at their own pace. I’m attentive, patient, and always tuned in to what a dog needs to feel comfortable and content. I strongly believe that dogs thrive best in environments where they feel safe, secure, and loved. That’s why I offer in-home boarding in their own familiar surroundings, helping to reduce stress and maintain their normal routine. Staying in their own home provides a calm, reassuring alternative to kennels, where they can relax in the place they know best while still receiving plenty of care, companionship, and attention. Whether it’s for walks, day care, or overnight stays in your home, I’ll make sure your dog feels happy, settled, and well looked after while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! I am currently available most weekends and school holidays. Wherever and whenever I can help. I am an active person who is always exploring the outdoors or relaxing in the comfort of my own home. Being a dog owner my self, I understand how dogs thrive from their routine. I am happy to stick to you and your dogs regular routine.

Nat looked after our working cocker spaniel and Maltipoo for 2 nights recently. Nat kept us updated with assurances and photos and the dogs were clearly well looked after. She even left us some treats for when we returned which went down well. Thanks Nat - we will definitely be seeing you again in the future x

Ozgul was great with my two dogs. She went above and beyond when one of them had an upset stomach, even went and got him some chicken from the shop! Was here on time and even stayed a little later as I was delayed coming back. Ozgul sent lots of updates, videos and photographs while I was away so I knew that they were happy and cared for. She treated both my dogs as if they were her own and they absolutely loved her 😊 Lots of fun walks for our puppy and adapted the walks for our older dog. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be booking her again 🙂

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Halton walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
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 Halton 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!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
