House Sitting Horsham

“Marc sent us regular updates, photos and videos. He and Daphne appeared to be having a lovely adventurous time together. The house was immaculate when we arrived home. Hope to use Marc again in the future.”

“Sebastian was right on time and did all that we asked him to do for our boy Alfie, even when Alfie was “playing up” by barking a lot and demanding attention Seb found a way to calm him back down eventually, the house was clean and tidy upon our return and Seb sent photos and updates as well. We would definitely recommend Sebastian to friends and family and we hope Alfie can meet him again soon. Thanks Sebastian 🐶🐾”

“Trustworthy, Loving & Professional Highly Recommend Shellina We were away and leaving both our cat and dog with Shellina was absolutely the right decision. From the very beginning, she kept us consistently updated with photos and messages, which made a huge difference while we were away. It was clear that both of our pets were not only well cared for, but genuinely comfortable and happy. Shellina gave them so much attention, affection, and cuddles that, honestly, they didn’t even feel our absence. That says everything. She followed their routines carefully, ensured they were well fed, exercised, and emotionally settled. Our dog enjoyed plenty of walks and playtime, and both pets received constant love and interaction. She even helped them socialise, which was a great added touch. She stayed in our home, treated everything with respect, and handled everything in a very professional and organised way. What stood out most was the peace of mind — we didn’t worry for a single moment. That level of trust is not easy to find. Shellina clearly loves animals and takes her work seriously. We are incredibly grateful for the level of care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and professional pet sitter. Thank you again, Shellina — wishing you continued success.”

Our care is particularly well suited to friendly companion breeds, smaller dogs, and pets who enjoy a relaxed, family environment. Myself, my family and my friend that helps out absolutely love animals and have always had pets in our lives. I have my our own dog—a small Cavapoo and so we truly understand how much pets mean as part of the family. Between myself and my friend we have many years of experience with dogs, cats and small animals, including rabbits. We understand that every pet is different, and we always take the time to get to know their individual routines, personalities and little quirks so they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for. I work on a freelance basis so have a flexible schedule which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention and companionship throughout the day. Working alongside me is my friend Teresa who works within a school, who has regular free time in the school holidays, weekends and after school, meaning between us we can offer consistent, reliable care. I have a fully enclosed garden with plenty of space for dogs to run around, explore and enjoy being outside safely.

About: The companionship of animals has always been part of my life. Growing up in the countryside our dogs, Kimmy & Lady - Rough Collies & Tramps a Lab/Alsatain cross were apart everyday life and my best friends. For the last five years I've regularly looked after friends' dogs, so I have become accustom to the different rhythms a dog can have, the ones who want a good long walk to settle, the ones who just want you near, the ones who take a little longer to trust a new face and the ones who don't. There's a particular kind of trust that builds slowly over time with an older animal too, a language of small signals, and a practice of paying real attention, which one learns to read. I've also shared my home with cats for most of my adult years, two of whom lived a good life all the way to 21 and 23, so I'm well practiced with the needs of aging pets generally, not just dogs. Right now I share my home with a 12 year old moggie/Norwegian Forest cat, who came to me as a rescue at six and settled beautifully once he felt safe. So I know what it is to live alongside family pets who have their own mind, their own rhythm, and their own way of letting you in. Whether it's a puppy full of energy or an old soul who moves a little slower these days, I meet each animal as they are. No rushing, no forcing, just quiet attentiveness and the kind of care I'd want for my own. If you're picturing your dog settled, unbothered, still themselves while you're away that's exactly what I'm here to give them. I am a self employed sound and movement coach and manage my own appointments & sessions accordingly, so bookings vary from day to day and at various times throughout the day.I also deliver my services online so can be at home so variety, flexibility is why looking after pets works in synergy with what I do, . I find out as much as possible about your pets likes & dislikes, habits and the things you know work well. I'm there to make sure that your home and pet is cared for as if you were there, so keeping things as normal and familiar as possible. favorite toys, sleeping & eating patterns. Discipline & routines eg, re allowed or not on furniture, sit & wait before receiving food. no begging or tip bits, etc.

“Delilah has been great with our 6 year old sausage Hugo. Delilah very kindly came to dog sit Hugo in our home (at short notice) while we were away, she happily treated Hugo as her own dog with walks, feeding, toilet breaks and cuddles. Thank you so much for your help, we are so pleased we found you on here! xx”

“Frances was great with Socks and more than exceeded our expectations. She walked, played with and was great company for her. All instructions followed and we will be using her again. Many thanks Rover and Frances!”

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a normal part of my day-to-day life. Since I was 16, I've also regularly helped family and friends with dog walking, drop-in visits and pet sitting, looking after dogs with different routines, personalities and exercise needs. I'm confident with everything that comes with everyday dog care – walks, feeding, toilet breaks, playtime, keeping to established routines and, of course, giving them plenty of attention and affection. I know how important it is to be able to trust the person looking after your dog. I'll always take the time to understand your dog's individual routine, personality, likes and dislikes, and I'll follow any instructions you leave carefully. I'm also happy to arrange a Meet & Greet beforehand so you and your dog can get to know me. I work Monday to Friday, which makes me particularly well suited to early-morning walks and visits, lunchtime care for local dogs, and evening walks and drop-ins. I'm also more flexible at weekends. I live in Slinfold and have my own car, so I'm able to travel to pet owners in the surrounding area. During every booking, I'll treat your pet as I would my own and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing they're happy and being well looked after. Whether your dog needs a good walk to burn off some energy, a lunchtime toilet break while you're at work, feeding and company, or someone dependable to care for them while you're away, I'd love to meet them! 🐶 I’m currently working 9-5pm, Monday to Friday in Billingshurst West Sussex. I wfh two days per week which I can arrange around your pets needs. I will have plenty of time throughout the day for toilet breaks, playtime and any lunchtime feeds that might be required :) I am comfortable with any medicine requirements your pet may need as well as making sure they have enough water, food, play and attention throughout the day. If they need crate time or an alone space please let me know.

About: I have a love for all pets, especially dogs. I live in Horsham in a house with an average size garden. I have lovingly cared for my own dog and now relish helping to care for yours. I am currently on a career break so have no fixed commitments. This means I am flexible and can be available throughout the week and most weekends. In order to care for your dog I would like you to tell me about their personality, the things they enjoy and what to avoid. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. As a keen walker I am more than happy to be out in all weathers.

“This is the first time I have used Rover or any dog sitting service, so I I was slightly nervous . Sophie was perfect . My 11 week old puppy was very calm and happy when I got back . I will definitely be booking Sophie again .”

“Amazing! first time doing a home stay. Felt so relaxed leaving my cat and kitten with her. My cat is a little particular too, but I could tell she liked Fernanda. Updates too and lots of photos and videos during her stay. Would 100% recommend!”

About: My kitten of 18 years passed away last year, so I now have an empty nest. I know from experience how hard it is to find someone you trust to leave your baby with when you need to go away, so I'm offering a home from home for your pet. I have experience in giving all types of medication, and understanding different behaviours... and most important of all, your pet will be welcome up on the couch for cuddles. I am home all day so they will not be left alone, and can send you updates and photos as often as you wish :) I work from home, so your pet will have my attention whenever they want or need. This also means I can fit in any feeding or medication schedual. I will also be free to contact any time. I am home all day, so your baby will not be left alone... unless that's their thing! If they're young and want play time, I'll be there to play... or if they're a bit older and just want to lay on the couch and get stroked I can do that too :)

About: I have always been around animals, growing up my mum had her own pet sitting/ dog boarding business around 18 years ago which she did for 10 years. Therefore my school holidays I used to go along with her to help care for all sorts of animals, from pugs to bearded dragons! I then went onto have my own dog walking business when I was 15 which I did for 3 years. I've had numerous animal related jobs, kennels, dog groomers, pet shops and all have positively commented on how much of a natural I am around animals. I am now in my career job as airline cabin crew, however to get the both of best worlds, I have returned to my work with animals on days I'm not at 38,000ft! I care for all animals as if they are my own, and how I'd expect someone to treat my animals if they was in someone else's care. That is with love, affection, plenty of attention, and meeting all their individual needs, wether it is behavioural or extra tlc such as medication I am more than comfortable to cater for different needs. I am a short haul flight attendant however as winter draws in hours are less than higher season months, therefor I am very flexible and can care for pets on my days off/whilst working as hours are shorter. I treat each pet to its own individual needs, I believe all pets have their own differences, some need more time to trust people where as others may need more exercise or gentle love and care. With your home, I treat it with the same respect and morals I'd expect someone to stay in mine with, staying clean and organised.

“Eleanor looked after my 9 week old puppy for the evening. She was very friendly, polite and looked after my puppy really well. Would book her again”
