“Laura was amazing. Kept me updated so I knew my fur baby was ok and being looked after. Nothing was too much trouble for Laura and she asked me lots of questions about my dog so I knew she cared and took the job seriously. My house was left immaculate too!! Thanks Laura ❤️”
About: I’ve had my own two dogs for over six years and have always had a passion for working with animals. I completed a Level 2 qualification in Animal Management, where I developed my knowledge of animal welfare, behaviour and care. Since I was young, I’ve regularly looked after pets for family, friends and neighbours, including feeding, walking, playing and providing companionship. I understand how important it is for owners to know their pets are safe, happy and well cared for, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.I’m also a qualified animal first aider. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I care for my own two dogs every day. I have flexible availability and can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime and companionship. I will always make sure your pet’s usual routine is followed to help them feel comfortable and settled while in my care. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I have over six years of experience caring for my own dogs and a Level 2 qualification in Animal Management. I provide a safe, loving and supervised environment, ensuring pets receive plenty of attention, exercise and care. I will follow any instructions you provide and treat your pet as if they were my own.
“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 “ 🤩”
“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”
About: Having had dogs all my life I am most content snuggled up on the couch with my fur baby! I used to work away a lot and know how hard it can be to find a stable caring environment to leave your fur baby with. I offer a home from home environment for your beloved pet and guarantee lots of walks and cuddles! My own dog Tilly loves company and would be a great companion during your fur baby’s stay! I provide all the home comforts to ensure your pet doesn’t get too home sick!! I have been looking after dogs all my life and love nothing better than walking down the transpennine way which is situated at the bottom of my road. I offer over night boarding for as short or as long as is needed Monday to Sunday.
“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 😍”
“Caitlyn looked after my dog Mavis for me yesterday and she was brilliant! Mavis was very well looked after in the heat and loved spending the day with Caitlyn. Thank you so much, will definitely be asking you to come back again!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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”
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.
About: I’ve always had such a huge love for animals and have grown up believing that they’re part of the family. 🤍 Growing up, I had two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels who were such a huge part of my life. I’m now lucky enough to have two Dachshunds of my own, who are absolutely spoiled and very loved! I’ve also had lots of experience looking after family members’ pets over the years, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. After working away on cruise ships as a dancer, I’m now home full time and wanted to do something I truly love. 🛳️➡️🏡🐾 I know how much our pets mean to us, because I feel exactly the same about mine. When your dog is in my care, I’ll treat them just like I would my own with lots of love, attention, cuddles and care🤍 I’d happily welcome your furry family member into my home and make them feel completely at home while you’re away. 🐾 loving & reliable pet care 🏡 home full-time & lots of cuddles guaranteed 🛳️ former cruise ship dancer home in between 🐶 animal lover with a passion for happy pets 🏡 A safe, dog-friendly home Your dog’s safety and comfort is my number one priority 🤍 My home is set up with dogs in mind, including ramps around the house to help prevent unnecessary jumping and protect little backs, making it especially suitable for Dachshunds 🐾 🌿 Fully gated garden so dogs can enjoy some fresh air and play safely 🐶 Secure, dog-friendly spaces throughout the home including ramps specifically for Dachshunds 🛋️ Plenty of cosy areas for naps, cuddles and relaxing 👀 Dogs are never left without proper supervision 🤍 A calm, loving home environment where they can feel comfortable and settled I want every dog staying with me to feel like they’re having their own little holiday safe, happy and very loved!
“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!”
“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!”
“Absolutely stellar cat care provided by Lottie. Our Snapes has never had such VIP service to the point he was disappointed to see us return! Great communications throughout from Lottie, lovely way about her and she left our house immaculate. We’re very grateful she was able to help out and can’t recommend her highly enough.”
“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!”
“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.”

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! 💖
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

The average cost for House Sitting in Halton on Rover is £34.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
