1. Claire R.

“I was in need of a dog sitter and needed to know they were safe and happy during all the chaos of a house move! Claire invited us to meet beforehand and I knew immediately the dogs would be in good hands. She is attentive and understanding of the dogs and accommodating and responsive for her clients. Lovely to receive photos of happy pups at the beach. The dogs become part of the family and it was lovely to see how much they'd enjoyed their stay. Would absolutely recommend!”


2. Louise H.

“Lovely lady who was more than helpful and accommodating to my needs. Dog seemed to really enjoy his time there and I could work away with peace of mind. Thankyou so much”


3. Kevin S.

“Kevin was a brilliant dog sitter. He was tuned into Maisie's needs and provided a lovely and nurturing experience for her while we were on holiday. I would definitely use Kevin again and would recommend him.”


4. Rowanne S.

“Amazing first time using any sitters and could not be any more happier Phoebe has had amazing time and they have made us feel at ease already got more dates booked would recommend to any one”


5. Natalie T.

“Natalie looked after Bailey again for me. This time for a whole week as I was on a holiday with the whole family. Again, I can't recommend her highly enough. On this occasion she actually noticed a slight issue with Bailey that I hadn't noticed myself and went well out of her way to resolve the issue and kept me updated all the way through. I again received frequent updates and pictures of Bailey having fun and getting plenty of excersise. Thanks so much Natalie. I'll be in touch again to see if you're available when I next need someone I can trust and a safe pair of hands for Bailey x”

8. Ana Maria A.

“Ana was exceptional care giver for Baloo. Was putting lots of effort to make him feel safe and enjoy his stay with her. Was sending everyday updates for our peace of mind. I would definitely not hesitate to recommend her! Looking forward to next time.”


9. Alex F.

“I found Alex on rover after being let down by a previous sitter. Alex was very welcoming, and the house perfect for a dog with outdoor space and plenty of room for the dog to roam. Alex was very good with harvey from the off and could see she is very good handling dogs, I felt very comfortable leaving harvey. Regular updates and pictures were received. When picking harvey up I could see how happy and settled he was. I will definitely be using Alex again in the future.”


10. Gheorghe C.

“I can’t recommend Gheorghe highly enough! We have 2 very nervous dogs and they took to Gheorghe and his partner immediately. We had lots of communication and photos during our trip, meaning we could relax knowing that the dogs were happy and being well looked after. I hope Gheorghe will be able to help with the dogs again in the future.”


11. Violeta C.

“Cannot recommend Violeta enough. She was brave enough to take my hyperactive puppy overnight and she did amazing. Kept me up to date with photos and tales of their adventures. I will definitely be a returning customer (if she hasn’t been put off for life ;)). My Sadie Bear has came home well walked, fed and tired out. Violeta is lovely and I trusted her instantly. A job very well done.”


12. Lauren M.
About: I have taken care of dogs from a young age and have had experience helping to train reactive dogs, dogs that pull on their walks and much more! I know the basics of dog first aid and what to look out for (not yet qualified) and would love to be trusted with your loved K9! I am current self employed in dog walking and sitting and am able to assist to most needs even if they are slightly last minute! I live in a large flat with a large fenced garden, dogs I’m sitting will only be allowed in sitting room and kitchen area (very spacious)


13. Emily S.

14. Jane B.

“Jane was absolutely amazing looking after our little chihuahua Snoop. Every day got update n photo. Fantastic communications. Snoop came back home happy after staying with Jane. Definitely I would recommend Jane to everyone.”
