“Leaving my cat for almost 2 weeks was awful. I thought I'd manage ok but I didn't. Fleur left honest messages about Willow's wellbeing (as well as photos that we loved looking at several times a week) which made such a difference for my state of mind. Willow loves her. We love her. Wouldn't ask anyone else to look after our kitty 🥰”

“Charlotte is absolutely amazing. Clover loves her time with her and is happy and content when we come home. Charlotte provides lots of updates which means I can relax when at work.”


About: Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are my priority. I’m fully insured and DBS checked, giving you extra peace of mind when booking with me. I’ve had horses and dogs my entire life, worked on a professional polo yard of 18 horses for 6 years and have lots of experience caring for animals of all different shapes and sizes! Your pet is my utmost priority, when they are in my care you’ll never have to worry about your furry little family member❤️ I am currently on maternity leave with my son, I am available 7 days per week for walking, drop ins, boarding, dog walking etc. Short notice is welcome, I understand things pop up and I will do my best to cater to whatever you need. I treat every animal how we treat our own. With love , care and plenty of cuddles and treats! No animal is “too much” and their care and happiness is my utmost priority.

“Katy saved our weekend away. We are new to the area and a friend let us down and Katy stepped up last minute. Kevin can be a fussy little boy but he seemed so happy when I got home. We got regular updates and it was lovely knowing our little man and our house were in safe hands. Would highly recommend ❤️”

About: Me and my partner Ben have grown up with dogs in the family. We love dog sitting for our families and friends. Due to our shifts we can’t commit to a dog full time, so would love taking care of others when we can! Even though me and my boyfriend work shifts, and often we’re not working the same days each week, it means that we have bulk days off so we do have some flexibility. However, it is unusual for these days off to be as long as a week. We have a fenced garden attached to our house, and we have a vehicle to be able to take on walks. No small children or other pets
About: Hi I’m Maxine a 50 year old Mum of 3 older children, 1 stubborn Tibetan Terrier and 2 lazy cats. I had my own dog walking business for 3 years from 2017 until it ended in COVID. Since recently being made redundant I have returned to dog walking part time and I’m loving being back outside walking. I’m happy to walk dogs on or off lead, solo or very small group walks. My own dog Ralph is reactive and anxious so I’m comfortable adapting to your own dogs needs. I’m currently a full time housewife with 3 teenagers so have plenty of spare time on my hands. I do like to be finished work by 3pm as I still have after school activities. I’m afraid that I don’t offer home sitting or boarding I’m afraid as this wouldn’t suit my cats and dog at home.

About: I have cared for animals throughout my life and have always had a genuine love for them. I have experience looking after both cats and dogs, including dog sitting for friends while they have been away on holiday and cat sitting on previous occasions. I’m responsible, caring and attentive, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and well looked after in their own environment I work as a nurse Monday to Friday, usually 9am–5pm, with occasional weekend shifts. Outside of work, I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets, including evenings and my days off. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of care, attention and companionship I provide care in the pet’s own home, helping them stay comfortable and happy in their familiar surroundings. I’ll follow their usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll also make sure their home is left clean and tidy, and keep you updated while you’re away
“Georgia was amazing. From her initial visit our kittens were relaxed with her, making the most of the extra cuddles available! While we’re away we had app issues but Georgia kept in touch via what’s app, sending photos and videos of our extremely content kittens. They were clearly not missing us at all and were quite silky when we came home and Georgias visits stopped………. Their litter trays were cleaned, and they were eating well. We will definitely be asking Georgia if she’s free next time we’re away. Thoroughly recommend Georgia to if your looking for someone to care for your ‘fur babies’ as if they’re your own”

About: I have helped raise a gorgeous little dachshund (she's the dog on my profile), and I loved every second of it. I adore all dogs, of any size, and treat them with love and respect as if they were my own. I provide a safe and comfortable space for them to stay; the right amount of exercise for what your dog needs will be provided; they will be fed exactly according to your instructions. Most importantantly, I can provide you with the peace of mind that your dog will always be in safe, loving hands when you trust me to look after them. I am currently in between jobs, so I will have plenty of time to give your dog the care, attention and play it needs. I can easily adapt my schedule to start early or stay up late to meet your dogs' needs. I live in a spacious two bedroom flat that can comfortably house up to two dogs at once. Whilst I do not have a private garden, there is plentiful walking and green space on my estate for them to go to the toilet, or have a quick walk to burn off some steam. If I am to stay inside your home, I will respect all of your boundaries and requests. I provide updates throughout the service with how your dog getting along, as I know it would definitely rest my mind if I entrusted my dog with a stranger. I take great pride and responsibility when it comes to the care if dogs, and it is also my cherished responsibility to get to know yourself a little bit before you make a decision to let me watch over your dog. An introduction prior to any boarding (provided it is not the first time your dog is staying with me), would be very ideal, not just for your dog to become used to my presence, but for yourself to see me interact with your dog and see first hand the attention and fun we will have!

About: I've spent years caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and temperaments, from my family Cavachon to regularly looking after two Chow Chows and a Husky for friends. I occasionally work at a puppy yoga class in Manchester, where the puppies' wellbeing is the top priority. I particularly enjoy building confidence in nervous puppies and helping them feel safe and comfortable in new environments. Whether your dog is calm, energetic, shy or full of personality, I'll provide patient, reliable care tailored to their needs. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays (finishing at 12pm on Fridays), which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. I also work from home on some Tuesdays, and occasionally I have full weeks working from home, giving me even more availability. On the days I work in the office, I'm home by around 4pm, so I'm available for evening care and walks. I'm also free most weekends, making it easy to accommodate weekend bookings and provide dedicated care for your pets. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. In your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication (if required), and any house rules your pet is familiar with. I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, while also respecting their individual temperament—whether they love lots of interaction or prefer a quieter approach. If caring for pets in my own home, they'll have a clean, safe, and relaxed environment where they can feel comfortable. I have a decent-sized garden, and I live directly opposite a field with plenty of lovely walking routes nearby, so dogs can enjoy regular exercise. They'll always have fresh water, regular toilet breaks, lots of attention, and plenty of love and supervision.
“Can’t recommend Molly enough. Sent us many updates, was always punctual and gave our cat lots of respect and playtime. We came home and it was like we never left. Exactly what every pet owner wants for their baby! Thanks again Molly, we will be booking again in the future 😊”


About: I’ve dealt with many different dog breeds and know the best routes for walks. I’ve also had dogs my whole life and I’m comfortable with any shape, size and temperament. Furthermore, I volunteered in Bali for 4 weeks, rescuing and dealing with unpredictable strays, as well as walking them. I’m at uni and unemployed at the moment so I’m available whenever during holiday breaks, as long as I’m told a day or two in advance. I drive my own car so I have lots of flexibility to travel back and forth between locations. Most importantly, I want every dog to feel happy, loved and well looked after.
“I am so happy that I found Sarah through Rover. She is professional yet also kind and caring. I feel totally at ease with her coming to care for Fifi. From the pictures I can see that Fifi (usually weary of strangers) loved her too. I highly recommend. Thank you Sarah. We will definitely be asking you to help again in the future. X”
About: I’ve always loved dogs from a young age, but as my father is blind I’ve never been able to have one myself. However, to compensate for this, I have cared for both family and friends dogs for extended periods during their trips away and have found great delight and enjoyment in this. I have plenty of time to look after and dedicate to your furry friends alongside my remote work. Please feel free to reach out for specific availability! When caring for pets in an owners home, I like to understand what the pets usual routine is. I strive to stick as close as possible to this during my time with them so that they do not become stressed or upset and the experience is as easy as possible for them.
About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes, including dogue de Bordeaux (gentle giant). I have a beagle x bully called Kash so are out walking lots and she loves other dogs. Can also walk dogs alone if they prefer. I can work my day around your pets needs as working from home. I have lots of lovely walks nearby and access to enclosed dog exercise fields I have a fenced garden, a female dog and tortoise so some company if they are ok with other animals. I have space to crate if this is what they prefer.
About: Will adapt to whatever each individual dog needs and wants, nothing is too much. Any special requirements can be catered for. When I’m with your dog they will have my undivided attention for the entire time I’m with them. I’m a mature student at Open University studying from home. So I’m flexible with my time. Weekends no problem early morning to late evening I’m available twenty four seven. I will walk your dog as many times a day as needed, unlimited toilet breaks all through the night and day. Will give all the love needed.

About: I have looked after my immediate family and in-laws family dogs since being a teenager (retriever, lab, spaniels). I know the importance of keeping them safe, active, fed (but not too much) and happy. I am aware of the "big nos" with food, and the need for gaining respect and trust with your pet. Being a dietitian and my husband a chef, we feel it unfair to have our own pet currently, with being away at at work during the day, so would want to share my love with others. I follow strict instructions given and will always ask if unsure about something, keeping to a routine especially with feeding times. I would be available most days during the week from 5pm, as well as at the weekend, generally all day. I am very organised and keep a strict calendar so I would never let you down, and ensure to give plenty of notice if unable to complete service. Our current home is unsuitable for a pet, however I would be available for home visits and walking. I am very active myself, and would be happy to run with a dog at a decent pace (experience with labrador).

I felt comfortable as soon as I met her and she asked plenty of questions about our two cats and their needs. She came in to look after them twice a day for 10 days and sent lots of photos and video updates making sure we knew the cats were safe and happy, and also did our bins while we were away. Really grateful for her help and would definitely use her again for future holidays. Thank you for your care

This is our first time booking Charlotte to drop in on Razzles and Ruffles. We had an initial meet and greet which was super helpful! Charlotte was very warm,friendly ,loving and patient with the dogs- especially Razzles as he can get very excited and jumps up initially on people he meets for the first time. The drop in visits went very well too- Charlotte sent us photo and toilet updates which reassured us that Ruffles were very happy and settled! Many thanks Charlotte , would definitely book again
