“Ayanna was absolutely amazing with our two dogs, doing drop ins and walks whilst we were away. She went above and beyond, sending lots of pictures, videos and even mopped to help with any overnight accidents. We are so grateful and will definitely book again, thank you!!”

“Helen was great. My pooch seemed happy and well when I got home after a long day at work. Helen even put one of our escaped hens away - going above and beyond the dog walks we'd asked her to do. I'll definitely book Helen again 😊”

About: I have a genuine passion for animals and plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets. I have my own pets, including dogs and cats, which has given me a great understanding of their different personalities, needs, and behaviours. I hold a Level 3 diploma in Animal management with Distinction* grades, as well as qualifications in pet sitting, dog walking and dog grooming. I have also worked in both a cattery and kennels, giving me valuable experience caring for a variety of cats and dogs and understanding their individual routines and requirements. I already work with pets and regularly gain practical experience, while continuing to develop my dog grooming skills. I am caring, reliable, patient, and dedicated to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care I currently work part-time at Pets at home, although i often work more than my contracted hours depending on the needs of my work place. Because of this, i will fit pet sitting, dog walking and drop in visits around my work schedule and my days off. I always want to make sure i can give every pet the time, attention, and care they deserve, so i will be honest and upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. If you are looking for someone who can be with your pet 24/7, I may not always be the right person, depending on my working days and hours. However, I will always do my best to work with you and create a schedule that suits both you and your pet. When caring for pets in their home, I always aim to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I take time to understand their usual feeding, walking, toileting, medication, playtime, and bedtime routines, and make sure these are followed as closely as possible. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and reassurance while respecting each pet’s individual personality and boundaries. I also make sure their home is left clean and secure, and I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“He was really good, it was a last minute booking as well. I would 100% use him again. He gave a detailed description on how the walk was etc. the dogs are knackered now 🥰😂x”

About: Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, and play with their pets for over a decade. I currently do not own any pets of my own, which means your dog will receive my absolute undivided attention, full care, and 100% of my focus without the stress of competing with other animals. At 22, I provide a safe, active, and loving environment where your furry family member truly comes first. I work 4 on 4 off schedule so i can’t be available every day, but on my days off i have nothing else than taking care of your pet. I provide a completely safe, secure, and stress-free environment for your pets. I have a fully fenced garden where they can run around safely, and because I do not have any pets of my own, my attention is 100% focused on your pet's needs, comfort, and happiness at all times.
“Couldn't have asked for a better service! Josh is super friendly and approachable and you can tell that he reqlly cares about the animals he lookw after. Josh provided really good updates with pictures and summary of how our dogs walk with him was (which looked like he had a great time!) He was considerate with the weather and took water out just incase as well as topping up our water bowl before he left and just. We will 100% call on Josh again to walk Toby when needed :) Thanks Josh!”

About: As a dedicated pet owner to two dogs and a cat, I have hands-on experience providing attentive and loving care. I’m flexible, dependable, and confident handling a wide range of animals (with the exception of spiders!). My priority is making sure your pets feel secure, comfortable, and cared for—just as they would at home—so you can have complete peace of mind. I am now medically retired so I can completely focus my time on the animals and their needs, so any routine that they require will not be broken, and I am highly flexible also. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved at all times. I follow each owner’s routine closely and provide lots of care, attention, playtime and supervision
“Danii has been consistently reliable for a number of months. We feel very secure leaving Gio in Danii’s care, she goes above and beyond to make sure he is as happy as possible and always provides instant updates and pictures. Would highly recommend!”


About: Save £30 on your first booking with my promo code ZOEC43917! Just enter it at checkout to claim your discount. I have experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior pets and those who are a little more nervous. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and comfortable in their own environment while sticking as closely as possible to their usual routine. I take the time to get to know each pet and their individual needs, whether that’s taking things a little slower on walks, keeping to a structured routine, or giving extra care and patience to older or more anxious pets. Occasionally, my partner will join me during a house sit to keep me (and the pets!) company. If that isn’t something you’re comfortable with, or you think it wouldn’t suit your pet, just let me know beforehand and I’m more than happy to work around it. While you’re away, I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well looked after. I always make sure they get plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and affection, so they feel settled until you’re home again. I’m reliable, punctual, and genuinely love caring for animals. I’ll always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect as if they were my own. I am currently working and studying from home so I am available for all pet needs and services. Caring for pets is already apart of my daily routine having many pets myself. I’m able to care for pets both in my own home and in the pet owner’s home, depending on what is most comfortable for the pet and preferred by the owner. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I aim to keep their routine as normal as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime, and any specific instructions such as medication. I also make sure the home is left clean and secure, and I provide regular updates with photos so the owner has peace of mind. When caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment. I ensure they have a comfortable space, follow their usual feeding routine, and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for during their stay. In both cases, my priority is always the pet’s wellbeing, comfort, and safety.
About: I am a genuine animal lover with experience caring for a wide variety of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities.

I understand the importance of providing plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and a safe environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply offering affection and reassurance, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to ensure both pets and owners feel confident, happy, and well cared for at all times. I understand that pets are happiest when their usual routine is maintained, so I always adapt my schedule to suit the individual needs of the pet I am caring for. Whether it’s specific feeding times, regular walks, play sessions, medication schedules, or quiet time to relax, I make every effort to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences, habits, and personality to ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owner is away. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care that helps pets feel safe, happy, and at home. Safety, trust, and creating a positive environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their pets are in safe and reliable hands. I provide a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel comfortable and relaxed while maintaining their usual routines. I am attentive to each pet’s individual needs, ensuring they are supervised, cared for responsibly, and treated with kindness and respect at all times. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through clear communication, reliability, and a genuine commitment to providing the highest standard of care.
About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, horses, cows and sheep. I feel comfortable in all elements of looking after a dog, walkies, feeding, grooming and playtime. I currently work for a US company who downs mutiple pet brands, such as IAMS. Eukanuba, and good boy (the UK #1 dog treat brand) I have a 7 month old puppy Thor who runs the show is spoilt rotten, and why not - he is our baby! We do also have cats, they roam around the garden and house but keep to themselves and sleep all day! I work from home so pet care is not a concern. I live opposite a large area with fields in which dogs can be walked on or off lead. I have a garden which is fenced, so your dog can roam freely outside as we keep the back door open when weather permits. We have a 4 bedroom house so plenty of room for the dog to wonder and make a space of their own. I also have a 7 month old dog who loves other dogs and is very friendly and loving.
About: I have had animals all my life, ever since I was little, and caring for them has always been something I am passionate about. Growing up around pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing animals with the love and attention they need. Looking after and caring for animals has always been something I enjoy, whether it is feeding, exercising, grooming, or simply spending time with them. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I am committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. My lifelong experience with animals has given me the confidence and dedication needed to provide excellent care for pets. I am available in the week all day Wednesday Thursday and then in the morning/afternoon Monday Tuesday which can be easily moved around for you doggy, I work weekends but short shifts so I will always be around even for pop ins or even hours if needed When pet sitting in a client’s home, I will provide loving, reliable, and attentive care to ensure their pets remain happy and comfortable in their familiar environment. I will follow all instructions given by the owner, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication requirements, and any special care needs. I will spend quality time with the pets, giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and playtime while maintaining their usual daily routine. I will also help keep the home tidy and secure, ensuring both the pets and property are well looked after while the owner is away. My priority is to provide peace of mind by treating every pet with the same care and affection I would give my own.

About: Having cared for a dog through his senior years and recently welcomed a puppy into my life, I understand how much pets’ needs can differ at every stage of life. I’m patient, attentive and happy to adapt my care to suit each pet, whether that means extra attention for an older dog or the time and patience a young puppy needs. I also have two cats, so I’m familiar with feline personalities and care too. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. Six years ago, I moved to Sweden, and I’m currently back in the UK visiting family and travelling in my campervan. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time, so I can be available when needed. This means I can easily fit pet care around my day, whether that’s regular visits, walks or spending extra time with your pets to keep them company. I’m happy to work around your pets’ routines and give them the time, attention and care they deserve. As I’m currently living in my campervan, I’ll be offering pet care in the owner’s home rather than my own. I understand how important it is to respect both your home and your pets’ routines. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication if needed, and any other specific requirements. My priority is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable and cared for in their familiar surroundings, while giving you peace of mind that both your pets and your home are in good hands.
About: I’ve taken care of various breeds of different sizes since I was 10. Always the one to call when friends, family or neighbours needed someone to check on their pets. I am flexible so can allow as much time as you want to spend time with your fur baby meaning I can adjust to your schedule. I have a fenced garden with space for them to run around and plenty of safe spaces within my home to allow them to roam around freely.
About: I have had two doggies for the last 12 years. My eldest dog went over the rainbow bridge a few months a go and I’m really missing having doggy walks and company. I work part-time as an exam invigilator a few months of the year, have a car and feel I’d like to offer my care to some pets in need. I prefer to work with smaller breeds, with up to two smaller dogs at a time or one cockerpoo size. I would be happy to come and spend time with your furbaby whilst you are at work or on a day trip. We can have a play, chill out or go for a walk. It’s entirely up to you and your dog. I am happy to spend time with dogs of all ages. I am working as an exam invigilator for a few months of the year and have my own car. My children are now grown and they and my husband are now out all day. I regularly look after my father who is 86 one day an week and take him to hospital appointments. Other than this I am available to pop in and look after a dog or two. Take them for a walk or just give them some company. I am happy to care for pets in their own environment. I find that pets seem to be happier if they are in their own environments.
About: Welcome to Pooches Hotel 🐾❤️ Please take a moment to read my profile before messaging me. I know there is a lot to read, but when you are choosing someone to care for your fur baby, I believe the details really matter. I have personally run Pooches Hotel for 31 years, following in my parents' footsteps. This is a family-run dog-care business that has been handed down to me. My dad was a veterinary surgeon with his own veterinary practice, so I grew up learning about dogs, their health and their care. My mum was a retired German Shepherd champion breeder and bred and supplied German Shepherds for the police and private sector. Dog care isn't something I fit around another job — it is my profession and my life is organised around the dogs staying with me. I provide 24/7 care and supervision, taking one boarding booking at a time so your dog receives my full attention. They are not left alone while staying with me, and I aim to make my home their home from the moment they arrive until the moment they leave. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes and personalities, including puppies, seniors, dogs requiring medication or extra care, and dogs with challenging, guarding or reactive behaviours. I also have experience with grooming, canine first aid and CPR. My qualifications include Level 3 Pet First Aid & Pet Care, Level 2 Pet Grooming & Care and Advanced Certification in Animal Psychology. I am also fully insured with £5 million Public Liability Insurance. Your dog isn't simply being “boarded” — from drop-off to collection, they are treated as though they are at home. ❤️🐾 I am home full time, so your dog's normal routine can be followed throughout their stay. I don't fit dog care around another job — caring for dogs is my job, and your dog is my priority while they are with me. ❤️🐾 Before your dog's stay, I ask you to provide their usual routine in writing. I can send you my boarding paperwork to complete, which gives me all the information I need to prepare properly for your dog's holiday. Please include their normal feeding times, walking routine, toilet routine, sleeping arrangements, medication, training, treats, likes and dislikes, and anything else that helps me understand what they are used to at home. You can bring the completed paperwork with you on the day of boarding, but ideally I ask you to send it back to me beforehand so I have time to read through everything and make sure I am fully prepared before your fur baby arrives. I follow your instructions and your dog's normal routine as closely as possible. There is no one-size-fits-all routine here — every dog is treated as an individual. Because I take one boarding booking at a time and provide 24/7 care, I am able to give your dog the attention, supervision and consistency they need throughout their stay. ❤️ Safety is just as important to me as love and cuddles. ❤️🐾 My home is your dog's home for their holiday. From the moment they arrive until the moment they go home, their safety, comfort and happiness are my priority. I only take one boarding booking at a time, so your dog is never simply left alone. I am home full time and provide 24/7 care and supervision throughout their stay. I have a 180ft secure garden, with 6ft fencing and additional trellising in places, secure gates and no escape routes. Dogs are always supervised when outside. The garden is dog friendly, cleaned and sanitised daily, and there is plenty of space for play, exercise and relaxation. During warmer weather, the dogs have access to fresh water, paddling pools and cooling games, with air conditioning and fans available to keep everyone comfortable. For walks, I use long training leads and never let boarding dogs off lead, because I simply don't take the risk of a dog running away. My home and garden are protected by CCTV, motion detection and recording, with monitoring/security support and a house alarm. I also have fire extinguishers, fire blankets, alarms and a fully stocked pet first-aid kit. I have fire-safety training and an emergency procedure, so everyone knows what to do should an emergency ever occur, including how to raise the alarm, call 999, where to exit and how the dogs would be safely evacuated. I also have £5 million Public Liability Insurance and an emergency vet approximately 6 minutes away. I take safety seriously because your dog is not just a booking to me — they are in my care, and I treat that responsibility as seriously as I would with my own dogs. ❤️
About: I have been working around animals pretty much my entire life, so much so that I have formal qualifications in animal care. I have experience working in Catteries which came with professional training on administering medication and treatments while on the job! I have a deep seated interest in cat and dog behaviour and psychology. I have studied this for years, employing what i have learnt onto my own furry friend to great effect, to the point that she performed on stage, in a rendition of "The Wizard of Oz" where she, of course, played the role of Toto I look forward to hearing from you and meeting all of your pets! I'm available all hours of the day and every day of the week! So if you need a dog sitter for your holiday in 3 months, or if you need one in 30 minutes, I'll be there! When I'm sitting with your dog I will do exactly what you need and request! If your dog has a specific regime then let me know and it'll be followed to the letter! I have a large amount of experience with giving medication to cats and dogs, so if your furry friend struggles with any health issue then let me know! That way you can rest easy knowing that they will be kept in peak health while you're away However if you have a dog that can be a little silly and needs to be trained or helped in some way then look no further! I have a triple distinction in animal care so I have the qualifications to make sure your furry friend is the happiest they can be! I can always offer the services of my own dog if that's something which floats your boat! She is a very well trained dog that has endless experience with helping other dogs, by giving them an example to follow if needed.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Kettering. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poo breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Kettering after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
You can find dog walkers on Rover who have experience of walking dogs across a wide range of breeds, sizes and temperaments. Each walker's experience and the dogs they're comfortable handling will vary.
When searching for a walker, use the dog-size filter and select either 18–45 kg or 45+ kg. Then review walker profiles and verified reviews for experience with dogs of a similar size, strength, temperament, and energy level.
Before booking, tell the walker your dog’s breed and weight, how they walk on a lead, their usual pace and commands, any triggers, and how they react to other dogs, people and traffic. Explain any walking equipment or handling instructions the walker will need to follow.
Complete your dog's profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before the first walk. These steps can help you and the walker confirm that they're a good match for your dog.
Every walker must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the walker is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
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 , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go through your pet's routine, medical needs and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
