“We booked Noa for 4 nights to take care of our reçue dog Nugget while we went away - he can be reactive to other dogs. She was so communicative throughout the dogsit and gave us regular updates which made us feel at ease! Will definitely use her again. You can tell she loves animals and takes great care in every dog she dog sits. Thank you again :)”
“May was right on time and our puppy was excited to meet her! We came home and our pup was tired out, a good sign! May asked all the right questions and kept us updated while we were out. We hope she’ll be available to watch our Pickle again!”
“Alexandra was so good with my puppy Stevie, who’s only 7 months and immediately warmed to her. She’s such a natural and I felt really happy to leave Stevie with her, would definitely recommend and will book again 😊 thank you so much!”
About: I’ve been lucky enough to have had two of my own dogs, Callie and Leo, both of which I’ve trained since they were puppies. Leo became a wonderful therapy dog who would give the best cuddles to patients at my local hospice. And Callie was my little shadow everywhere I went 💕 Whilst at university I used ‘borrow my doggy’ to help care for other people’s dogs which was an absolute joy! I’ve also regularly looked after my friend’s cat, Timmy whilst staying at their flat in Brixton so house sitting is something I’m very comfortable with if needed. We, as owners, are so so lucky to have pets - they really do become a huge part of the family and I will gladly help in anyway I can to look after yours xx I am currently taking time off from my full time job as an Interior Architect so I am available during the week as well as weekends. I live close to Highbury Fields which is where I love to go for walks already so having a dog to join me will be an easy transition. I live with my partner, who also loves dogs. We have a large, fenced garden which is perfect for dogs of any size. Furniture wise, we don’t mind having animals up on the sofa/bed or can happily keep them off if that’s preferred by you.
“Couldn't be happier with Lauren! She was punctual, great communication and Rosie absolutely loved her! Rosie is a reactive dog so is not the easiest to walk and there were no issues! Definitely booking again !”
“Thanks Youqing for all your help! I’m sure my dog Emi had even better vacation than me ☺️ Thank you for caring for her, thanks for all the great walks, and time you had together, I’m sure Emi will always remember you and treat as a great friend! 🐾🫶”
“Hannah has looked after Seamus twice now and is very patient and attentive. Hannah is always punctual and understanding of Seamus’s character and his challenges. I would not hesitate to recommend Hannah and use her again”
About: I’ve been helping to take care of dogs my whole life- when friends are out of town they stay at mine, I help with dog walks, and now in London I’ve been staying over at pet owners houses when they leave for vacation. I get so much joy from being with dogs, and will show them all the love they deserve! I’m only in office 2 days a week, which is why I’m able to take care of your dog pretty much whenever! I absolutely love going on dog walks :) I’m super respectful of your space, would always keep things tidy in your home. Also love getting outside and even more fun with a dog
“Oliver was incredible with Gunther. From the moment Oliver arrived, he was already playing with Gunther and making him feel at ease. He was in constant contact with us, sharing what was happening. Highly recommend.”
“Naira was so lovely, genuine and trustworthy. This was my first time using Rover, and therefore I was a little nervous. I can’t recommend her enough. She sent frequent updates of Columbo whilst I was out, and kept my mind totally at ease. Columbo was happy, calm and completely confident in Naira’s company (he can be a nervous/shy with new people).”
“Sarah was great with Mabel, she was a very happy puppy when I returned. She sent me lots of photos throughout the day and put my mind at ease :) thank you Sarah, will definitely ask her again!”
“Jess took great care of Poppy! Her regular and thoughtful updates gave me reassurance. She also watered the plans and handled a transition to another dog sitter, which was very helpful. Thank you!!”

Alberto was brilliant with my six month old staffy, Rio. It was Rio’s first time staying away from my flat overnight, and Alberto was great at communicating to reassure me it was going well. He went out of his way to be helpful throughout the booking process, and was incredibly helpful and accommodating with last minute requests. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!
Wow, where do I even begin with Noa. She is one of the best sitters I’ve had on Rover. She is so thoughtful, has an incredible attention to detail, cares about your pet and home, and all around amazing person. My Nigel updates were so special and intentional every single day. I can tell Nigel fell in love with her straight away. She left my home in pristine condition. Cannot recommend her enough 🩷💙
Abigail is the most wonderful sitter and our two Aussie Shepherd girls are madly in love with her! She always makes sure they get the best walks, play time, and was super professional giving our pup Eloise her scheduled eye drops after she underwent surgery. She took excellent care of our home and it was absolutely spotless when we returned. We’re so grateful for her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!
Emma was AMAZING with my puppy Skye. She followed all the instructions, played with her so sweetly and just showed so much love, keeping us regularly updated. She really understood the difference between puppies vs older dogs and made sure to keep more of an eye on Skye. I will definitely be using Emma for dog / puppy sitting again.
Flor looked after Dill at our house for a week while we were on holiday abroad. Flor gave us regular updates with photos to share the activities she and Dill were having together, this was greatly appreciated and just the right amount of information to help us know that Dill was happy and being looked after very well even when she developed a tummy upset which she can sometimes experience. We returned to a happy, excited dog and it was lovely to see how she went with a wagging tail to say goodbye to Flor when she was leaving.
Sara was very responsive in the booking process and the run up to her looking after Jerry. She was very friendly and trustworthy and sent regular updates to show how Jerry was getting on. Jerry can be a bit shy with new people but loves cuddles. She quickly warmed to Sara and seemed perfectly happy when we got back from our trip. I'd have absolutely no hesitation to book Sara again. Thanks!
Diana was excellent in communicating. She visited beforehand to meet Tammy who, uncharacteristically, seemed to take an instant like to her. Diana stayed for 4 nights and kept the flat tidy, the litter tray spotless, and stripped the bed before leaving. Tammy seemed a little disappointed to see us back so soon.
Jessica helped us very last minute and was a great petsitter! Our dog, Kenia, loved her from the beginning :) we got lots of updates with pictures. Our home was left clean. Totally reccomended and we will surely stay in touch for the next time! Thank you so much ❤️
Sofya took care for my 9-week-old puppy, and it was a fantastic experience! They were professional, attentive, and clearly passionate about dogs, communicating effectively by asking detailed questions and keeping me updated with photos and messages throughout the day. After the sitting, they provided a thorough report on my puppy’s activities and shared helpful training tips. I highly recommend Sofya for their exceptional care and dedication, and I’ll definitely be booking them again! 🌟🐾
Lovely Jill took great care of our beloved Marlow today whilst I had to attend an urgent and unexpected hospital appointment. We received regular updates and photos and Marlow was clearly happy and content. A huge thank you for stepping in at a very last minute request.
