About: Specialising in drop in visits and walks. I am fit and healthy and love the outdoors and walking. I would love to get your precious pets out with me in the fresh air to enjoy some little adventures. I have experience of dog care as I own a West Highland Terrier. I have also had bookings and experience on this app ranging from boxers, cocker spaniels, cockerpoos and more. I will make sure you pet is safe, happy and having a fun time :) I am reliable and you can trust me to look after your pet and home. I am available from 9.30am until 1.30pm, and 4.30pm onwards every week day for drop ins or dog walking. During the school holidays I am available anytime. I am also free most weekends - especially when booked in advance. I would prefer ongoing regular clients but I am also open to one offs. I will discuss each pets individual needs with the owner as every animal is different. I will make a note of any special requirements and medical details.
About: We have taken care of dogs and cats since we were both in our teens, we are both animal lovers and will treat your animals like they are our own. We have have both owned a number of different breeds from small dogs such as Jack Russell’s to big dogs like huskies and we have a lot of experience with staffy’s. We are both trained in basic doggie first aid and CPR as well as fully insured ⛑️ so you can rest assured your dogs are in safe hands. Pet sitting and walking is my full time job and my partner works part time so we are both available most of the time. We don’t walk on Sundays. I have a back tat that has high walls and a high fence. We have the best of both World as we do not currently live together so we can accommodate dogs that do not get on with other dogs as Ella can stay either of our homes. We are fully insured for Dog walking and pet sitting and we can provide the proof of this.
“Thank you so much for looking after our girl! Danielle is really friendly and seemed very comfortable looking after our staffie who is quite boisterous at first meeting. Really appreciate the updates we got and that she had lots of opportunities to go for a walk and do her business. Thanks again!”
About: I provide calm, attentive and individualised care for dogs in a quiet home environment overlooking Corporation Park in Blackburn, with easy access to larger walking areas including Witton Park and Billinge Woods. I have a background in occupational therapy studies, which has shaped the way I now approach dog care. I pay close attention to behaviour, routine, body language and individual needs rather than treating every dog the same way. Some dogs need more activity and engagement, others need a calmer and more predictable environment, and I adapt accordingly. As a child, and teenager, our family pet (a Jack Russell) gave me an early understanding of canine behaviour and communication. More recently, I have gained additional hands-on experience helping care for dogs with varying temperaments and energy levels. I enjoy walking, hiking and trail running, so active dogs are very welcome, but I also value structure and calm routines. Walks are purposeful and suited to the individual dog, and evenings are generally relaxed and settled to help dogs feel secure and comfortable away from home. At the moment I am taking time away from my studies, which means I have the flexibility and availability to dedicate proper time and attention to the dogs in my care rather than fitting them around a busy schedule. I offer home boarding, walks, and house sitting, and I aim to create an environment where dogs feel safe, understood and well looked after. For first bookings, I prefer to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so I can understand your dog’s routine, behaviour and needs, and make sure everyone feels comfortable and settled. At the moment I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs consistent attention, regular walks and a calm home environment throughout the day. I enjoy walking, hiking and trail running, so active dogs are very welcome, but I also adapt to dogs who prefer a slower pace and more routine-based care. I live in a quiet area overlooking Corporation Park in Blackburn, with access to larger parks and woodland walking routes nearby. I take a calm, observant and individual approach to dog care, paying close attention to behaviour, routine and comfort levels. I also arrange meet-and-greets before bookings to help make sure everyone feels comfortable and the environment is a good fit.
About: I have taken care of dogs from a very young age. My family fostered dogs of all ages and breeds, meaning I have basically grown up around dogs. At home I have 2 dogs, a great dane cross and a greyhound whom i absolutely adore! I have several years of both basic and advanced training and am confident when handling and looking after dogs of all ages and need! I am currently on a gap year before studying veterinary medicine at university, so have plenty of time to care for and look after your furry babies! I work with each dog differently depending on their different needs, but care for them all the same! I can easily adapt to whatever you or your dog(s) want and still uphold a professional level of care.
“Louis is a very nice, well mannered lad. He looked after my dog and 3 cats. They all seemed happy when I arrived back home after a night away. He kept me updated of the cats whereabouts and Barney loved his company. My house was left just as tidy as I had left it, I will definitely be booking him again and would recommend him to anyone”
About: Growing up our house was home to a number of different breeds of dogs that we loved and cared for very much. I've had a good exposure to varying temperaments and behaviours. Currently I'm a med student who attends university in Bristol Monday to Friday and the rest of my time is usually spent at home studying. I’m based in Bedminster but I have a car I can use if needed to drive out a little further for any dog walking or house-sitting requests.
About: My doggie died a few months back after 14 years , grown up around dogs & horses! Previous dog sitting & walking neighbourhood dogs! I have looked after dogs from puppies, to elderly dogs, it’s part of my nature and comes very naturally! I call myself the dog whisperer:) I am self employed, moved from London to Darwen. So I move my own schedule around and I find myself very bored most of the time. I feel a big gap in my life currently since my dog passed away, and would really love to get back into looking after dogs! I live in a 3 bedroom house, pretty much on my own. My partner works full time, 6 days a week. I have access to a lot of space , and a fenced garden. Easy access to beautiful countryside walks.
About: I have been caring for dogs at my home for over 7 years, treating each one like a member of my own family. I have always prioritized their needs, comfort, and happiness, because I believe dogs are among the purest souls on the planet and deserve the highest level of care and affection. Over the years, I have gained hands-on experience in all aspects of dog care, including feeding, grooming, exercise, medication, and emotional well-being. My dedication and love for dogs drive me to provide the best care possible, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved at all times. I am currently working a part-time job, which gives me plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. I have a flexible schedule and can adjust my timings to meet the needs of the pets. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well-fed. I provide fresh water, regular meals, and bathroom breaks on schedule. I take them on walks or play sessions to keep them active and healthy. I follow any instructions from the owner, such as specific diets, medications, or routines. I also ensure their bedding and living area are clean, monitor their behavior and health, and give attention based on each pet’s personality and needs.
About: I have had my own dogs personally since i was five years old. I have grown up around dogs and also looked after family and friends dogs also. I am currently working part time so i have plenty of availability and time needed to look after them. I’m also available most weekend and evenings. I have a fenced garden that has plenty of space and a sausage dog named Colin who loves the company and loves to play with other dogs.
“Annie was absolutely brilliant. We were very happy knowing Paddington was being so very well looked after. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Annie was professional, respectful, kind and kept us regularly up to date while we were away. Thank you again Annie :)”
“Lucas was new to Rover and stepped in last minute when our original house and pet sitter had to cancel. Lucas could not have done a better job from the moment we met him we were put at ease and confident in his abilities to care for our pets. He was tasked with looking after 3 delinquent doggies and a sphinx cat all with their own habits and quirky ways which did not deter him from saying yes! We were kept updated daily with photos and messages and even maps showing where he had taken the dogs for walks. Nothing was too much trouble he kept the house immaculate and watered the plants keeping them alive and well 🤣 We would 100% recommend Lucas to any prospective Rover clients 👌 Thank you ☺️”
“Rosita has walked my dog and came to stay over whilst we went away. Really lovely and professional, always keeps me updated. Left the house nice and tidy. Really impressed and would definitely use her again xxx”
About: I’ve had lots of pets since I was born from dogs and cats to lizards and rats. I have always loved being around animals, taking care of them and making them feel loved and comfortable :) Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life, I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, so my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walking, playtime, and cuddles. I’m used to early mornings, regular exercise, and keeping animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I’m passionate about working with animals and plan to make pet care my full time career. In my home or yours I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved as if they were my own. I provide a secure environment, regular feeding, fresh water, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep routines consistent and ensure each pet’s needs are met whether that’s special diets, medication, or extra snuggles.
“Great communication, kept us updated with how Ronnie was getting on and left the house spotless and clean. Also Ruby is clearly experienced with dogs and knows exactly how to care for them - she’s also a really lovely person. Would highly recommend.”
About: I've looked after dogs personally for over 26 years. I've trained puppies and I've trained older dogs. I'm super fit as I go to the gym and walk miles each week. I currently work from home so I can provide a personal service for your dog any day all day. If you would like me to visit your home then that is OK also. I also have a dbs certificate for peace of mind I have a fenced yard and a open house where the dog can walk and play. I have leads and dog bowls and food if necessary

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 Hyndburn 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 Hyndburn 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. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
