“I wouldn't hesitate to book Carrie again. She clearly cares about the pets she looks after. She kept me fully informed about my elderly cat's wellbeing in my absence and sent plenty of photos. Carrie herself is a lovely person and easy to get along with.”

“Absolutely delighted with Carol, we met up before I went away on holiday for 10 days and got on really well, . Whilst away Carol updated me with txs, photos and videos ,easing my anxiety of leaving Marley .Carol stayed overnight, house was spotless on my return. Carol will definitely be my first point of call for Marley going forward..lovely, pleasant, smart and friendly nature, adores animals, exceeds expectations in every way ..thank you Carol from Marley, Paula and John McDonald x”

“Chloe was just great- I felt totally relaxed after she met me and the dogs before the walks knowing we were in very good hands! On the day she coped admirably with Bob having to be on the lead in a Buster collar and paw boot in very wet weather. Highly recommend her and will ask her back if I need a walker/sitter for future dates.”


About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life as my mother and I are an avid pet lovers who help animals in need find a new home. I have previous experience sitting and caring for puppies and disabled dogs who need that little extra bit more care. I only am able to care for small dogs however I have the experience with disabled, senior dogs and puppies. I am currently in full time university and my days would fluctuate between mid September and early April. I will update my schedule when my university gives me my timetable however I am off university until mid September and am free every day until then. I am only able to care for your dogs/cats in your own home and in their own environment. I have no requirements and no allergies. I am only able to pet/ house sit for up to 2 weeks at a time. I am able to send as many updates whether that is phone calls, messages, photos or videos. I can follow strict routines that your fur baby may have so that there is not much disturbance to their daily life.
About: I’ve got experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I know how to keep pups busy and how to give older dogs the calm, gentle care they need. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfy while you’re away. I also have experience with dogs who require medication due to medical conditions, after caring for my own boy Oscar who’s sadly not with us anymore due to old age. Canine First Aid and CPR trained. I’m currently awaiting a start date for my new job so I’ve got all the time in the world to give them the love and attention they need. I only offer care in the pet owner’s home, as I have a German Shephard of my own who’s a bit anxious around other pets. This means your dog will get my full attention in their own familiar space, which helps reduce stress and keeps their routine consistent. I’m big on safety, keeping doors secure, following feeding and walk schedules, and making sure your pet feels happy, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.
About: Although I don’t have little formal experience, I truly love dogs and am excited to start caring for them! I’m responsible, reliable, and love learning what makes each dog happy. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or quiet company, I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pup feels safe and loved every step of the way. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule and can work from home, which allows me to give plenty of attention to your pup throughout the day. I can easily adjust my breaks for walks, playtime, or check-ins. Whether it’s weekdays or weekends, I’ll make sure your dog gets the care, love, and activity they need while you’re away. I prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care. I ensure their environment is secure, follow all medical and routine instructions from the owner, and provide regular updates. I maintain a clean, engaging space for pets to feel happy and safe, and I treat each animal with respect and gentleness to build trust and a positive experience.
About: Experienced with dogs of all ages and abilities. Passionate about providing the best care and living up to yours and doggie's expectations and needs. I know how important keeping to a schedule is and will do everything I can to make sure that is maintained. I'm a freelancer in TV, so looking to meet new furry friends inbetween my jobs. Happy to work around you and pet's needs and work to your schedule. I live in a 2 bedroom house with lots of outdoor space for roaming. I have 2 cats - 7 & 3 who spend most of their time outdoors
About: I have been caring for dogs and other pets for many years. From energetic puppies to more laid back golden oldies, I have experience with a wide range of breeds and personalities. In addition to looking after dogs, cats and other animals, I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for people's homes while they’re away, ensuring everything is kept secure. I have a 1 year-old Schnoodle puppy who loves playing and socialising. If you have a puppy of a similar age and are looking for some fun puppy playdates, feel free to get in touch! If you’re looking for a reliable pet sitter who will treat your pets like family, I’d love to hear from you! I work remotely and flexibly from home so I am able to provide plenty of attention, toilet breaks and play time. I like to set up activities for dogs in my care so that they get as much stimulation as they need, eg treat mats, frozen bowls. Ernie and I go out walking in the morning, lunchtime and evening, incorporating a mixture of exercise - including woodland walks, fetch and recall on the longline and visits to secure off-lead dog fields. Your dog is welcome to join us! We usually go out for a short walk before bed so the dogs can perform their night time ablutions. Pets are welcome to sit on the furniture or rest in their beds and blankets. I am able to care for small to medium dogs in my home. I will often have my puppy with me, so we have plenty of scheduled breaks for playing, napping and walkies throughout the day. When caring for pets at home, I am close to the beach for walks and sniff walks around the park. I am also able to offer home visits, if that is more appropriate for your needs.
“Very happy with Angel's looking after of our cat Ember. Kept us up to date of all visits online with accompanying pictures every time. Would not hesitate to use Angel again in future and would highly recommend her.”
About: I love all dogs - big and small! I grew up with dogs - a German short haired pointer and an Italian Spinone, as well as lots of other lovely dogs in my extended family too. I now have a three year old cocker spaniel called Juno. She is well trained and very sociable with all dogs and she loves to have other dogs to stay! I’m happy to work on any training needs your dog has while staying with me. I work from home 2 or 3 days a week. I tend to take Juno for one longer (1+ hours) walk per day as well as a couple of short trips to the park. I can adjust this depending on your dog - longer/more adventurous for energetic dogs and shorter/more gentle walks for older or slower dogs. We love to go down to Portobello, round Arthur’s Seat and up to Blackford Hill. I live on my own and have a 2 year old cocker spaniel. She is very friendly and gets on with all dogs - but also knows when to leave dogs that don’t want to play with her! I will only ever take one dog at a time so it will only ever be the two dogs together. I have a secure shared garden with grass lawn and surrounding stone wall. In the house, your dog can make itself at home. I have dog beds in both rooms and they are also welcome to be on the sofa/armchairs. I’ve got lots of dog toys and chews. My flat is on the third floor so may not be suitable for older dogs with mobility/joint issues.

About: I have taken care of many family friends pets, comfortable with any temperament, can do daily check ins and walks or overnight stays when needed, student veterinary nurse so have gained extra handling experience. I am also currently working on a farm so spend most days looking after lots of animals including overnight care when the farmer is away. Currently working part time on farm from 8am-1pm Monday- Thursday and Sundays, able to do drop in visits/ walks before work. Come September I am back at uni 2 days a week and then do online classes other days which means I am able to do multiple drop ins/ walks a day and overnights when needed. Comfortable staying in people’s homes when needed, can cater to any and all needs of pets. If dogs have routines of going to enclosed dog parks I am able to stick to routine as I can drive and have had no incidents or claims.
About: I have grown up with dogs and started in-home dog sitting when I was 15, giving me years of experience caring for pets. I have also had the pleasure of cat sitting many times and absolutely love spending time with kitties. As a part of my Zoology degree, I've participated in several animal care internships that gave me hands-on experience with a wide range of animals. I'm confident, comfortable, and genuinely happy around pets of all kinds, and I'm passionate about providing them with the love and care they deserve. Right now I am tutoring Biology online, which gives me free time during the day to take care of your dog. I enjoy long walks for exercise and live a few minutes walk from Queens Park; thus, I can assure you that your dog will get enough outdoor time. I follow a regular schedule whatever that may be for your dog. I can also accommodate specific instructions, such as medication, training, or any extra cuddles and care to make sure your dog feels comfortable and happy while you are away from them. I am obsessed with animals and enjoy spoiling them with the attention and care they deserve. I treat every pet I look after as though they were my very own, whether it's in my home or in a pet owner's home. In my home, a safe, clean, and comfortable environment is maintained with plenty of space to relax and play. I will prioritise sticking with regular routines, including routine feeding times, regular walks, bathroom breaks, and playtime to keep them happy and stress-free. When I am taking care of pets in their own homes, I make sure to respect the area of the owner at the same time as providing the same love and attention that a pet deserves. I adhere to special instructions, whether it is about diet, exercise, medicines, or favorite toys, and make sure that pets are secure, cared for, and feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings. My focus has always been on ensuring well-being, providing companionship, and making sure pets are loved and safe at every moment.
“Dylan took great care of my very high energy Cocker Spaniel puppy. It was my first time using the app so I was a little anxious about the whole thing but he was super patient, friendly and accommodating of meeting us beforehand! It's clear that he loves dogs 🐶 Will definitely be booking him again - I'm sure my pup will be delighted! Thanks Dylan ☺️”

“We cannot recommend Savannah enough. She has been ABSOLUTELY brilliant. We were so anxious initially leaving our kittens alone, but since day one, we knew they were in good hands when we saw their pictures and videos with her. Our kittens were anxious around new people but warmed up so easily with her. She also updated us on literally everything and went the extra mile to make them comfortable. We would want her for our cats every time we're away. 100 percent peace of mind.”

About: With my Dad who races pigeons and an Auntie who rescues dogs and used to volunteer with The Dog's Trust, I am one of the lucky ones who has grown up around animals their entire life. We kept budgies and rabbits, a dog and a cat. I had neighbours who asked me to look after their guinea pig, and another who asked me to look after their Yorkshire Terrier, I have wide experience with different animals and on different terms, including overnight stays and daily meal time visits, or just as a companion for a few hours. My boyfriend is always catching me talking to various dogs and our cats when we are out on walks. I'm currently working from home as a freelance photographer which gives me a pretty flexible weekly routine. I live close to a number of parks for walks, but also close to public transport for home visits.I As previously mentioned, I have been entrusted with things like staying overnight to look after a friend's cats, dropping by to check in with pet wellbeing and keeping them company for a few hours and dishing up meal time. Additionally, as someone very fond of nature, dog walks are something I really miss about moving to the city from the Scottish Highlands where I grew up with said cat, dog, rabbits, budgies and pigeons.
About: Having grown up with a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, and parrots, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their unique needs and behaviors. I have extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs, as well as pet sitting for rabbits. Whether providing care for several weeks or just a few days, I ensure each pet feels secure and loved while their owners are away. My family and friends always trust me to sit for their pets, highlighting my reliability and dedication. I focus on creating a stimulating environment with plenty of playtime and affection, along with maintaining clean and comfortable spaces. My genuine love for animals and my attentive care help ensure that every pet has a positive and enjoyable experience! Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine, as I’m fully flexible with my time. I can easily accommodate various schedules, whether it’s early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening cuddles. My adaptability allows me to tailor my visits based on each pet’s needs, ensuring they receive the attention and care they deserve whenever it’s most convenient for their owners. Whether it's short visits or longer stays, I’m committed to providing a loving and enriching environment for every pet in my care! In My Home: Safe Space: I create a pet-friendly environment with secure areas to prevent any escapes or accidents. Hazardous items are kept out of reach, and the space is thoroughly cleaned and free of harmful substances. Comfort: Each pet has a cozy resting area with plenty of blankets to make them feel at home. I ensure that they have access to fresh water at all times and a consistent feeding schedule. Supervision: I closely monitor all pets during playtime and activities to ensure their safety and well-being, providing a loving and attentive presence. In a Pet Owner's Home: Familiar Environment: I respect the pet owner's space and routines, keeping their home clean and orderly.

Trustworthiness: I communicate regularly with pet owners to provide updates and address any concerns. I follow their specific instructions regarding care, medication, and any special needs their pets may have. Safety Protocols: I ensure all doors and gates are secure and that pets are always supervised, particularly during walks or outdoor play. By prioritizing safety, trust, and a nurturing environment, I ensure that every pet feels comfortable and secure, whether they are in my home or their own.

Don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions or concerns. I am currently unemployed with an open schedule. I have a vehicle large enough to transport extra large or multiple dogs. Open to long extended walks or travel for pick up. I have no animals on my property. I live in a remote area away from traffic and other houses. I’m very flexible and accommodating to a human’s needs, rules, schedules for their fur baby.

David was able to take a last minute booking for me at short notice and was flexible in arranging keys, and coming over to meet my can Nina. His reports helped put our mind at ease, including pictures and updates about Nina's wellbeing. I felt confident that my cat was in safe and experienced hands and that allowed us to enjoy our holiday. Would recommend David to anyone as a knowledgable and attentive cat sitter.

Carrie took great care of our cat. She did what she said she would do, which is the most important thing. She was very pleasant to deal with, communicated throughout, and kept us up to date and sent photos for the visits. We returned to a happy and well cared for kitty. I would have her back for sure.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
