“James was responsive to messages and was able to accommodate us at short notice. He completed a meet and greet ahead of our visit times for our 9 week old puppy, and I felt instantly assured. He sent us pictures from the visits, and everything went smoothly. It really took the stress out of us leaving Darla for the first time. We have since rebooked James for ongoing visits. Thanks again :-)”


“Ayanna has been walking our Border Collie, Zeke, every Thursday and she has been great! Zeke is always very happy to see her and really enjoys their 1-hour walks together. He’ll usually sleep throughout the afternoon when he gets home. Ayanna has always been very responsive and takes lots of pictures and videos. I can highly recommend Ayanna!”


“Donna was fab, from beginning to end! She managed to coax our little scaredy cat out, sent us updates, rolled with last minute changes, and most importantly: took good care of our girl. Will definitely use her again if we need a cat sitter in the future :)”



“Thank you Lina for keeping my Star happy over the last few days, it was really really appreciated, and pleased it was so easy to book through Rover. I'll definitely be back in touch with further dates when the need arises. Thanks again!”


“Vicki is a wonderful cat sitter! I needed a sitter to take care of my elderly, diabetic cat, PK, and Vicki was the perfect choice! On contacting Vicki through Rover, she took time out of her day to come over and learn how to administer insulin to PK. To me this really shows how much Vicki loves and cares for animals. On the day of the booking, Vicki arrived bang on time and fed + injected PK, leaving the kitchen tidy and PK’s tummy full. Lastly, I made a request at short notice, however Vicki was more than happy to help, showing just how flexible and helpful she is. Thank you very much Vicki, PK and I look forward to seeing you again. P.S. Awesome hand tattoo!”

About: I've been a dog lover all my life and helped train my family dog at the age of 13. I stayed by Dexter's side for 13 incredible years until he passed away in February of last year. Miss you buddy. I have a 2 year old miniature labradoodle named Ziggy. He's full of beans but I've put a lot of effort into his training and he's coming along incredibly well. I've taken an interest in dog training and although I'm by no means an expert, I do understand dogs behaviours and body language well. Being a dog owner myself I know what it's like to want the best for them. They're family ❤️ I've now been dog walking & sitting for about a year and have experience with a wide range of animals, from pups to seniors. As of July, I am fully flexible and available most of the time. I want to make this a full time thing for me so your pets are guaranteed my full attention. After a bad experience putting my own dog into a kennel, I personally always feel more at ease knowing my dog is safe in his own home with someone I can trust. I also understand that some animals can be timid and nervous, I will do my best to gain their trust and companionship at a pace that suits them. I am calm but assertive and very aware of my surroundings so you (and your animals!) will feel safe and secure with them under my care.

About: I have had pet dogs all my life and have had 2 dogs as an adult that I have trained with support of puppy and dog classes. I love spending time with dogs and enjoy going for long walks with them, playing in the garden and snuggling up on an evening. I enjoy brushing and ensuring a dog's coat is in good condition. I work full time at a primary school term time only but am home by 3.30 every day. I am very flexible during school holidays. I have a fenced off garden where dogs can safely play outside, I do have a crate available if needed but am happy for dogs to roam free within the home too

About: I’ve been looking after friend’s dogs alongside my own for years. I was a dog sitter before I was a dog owner, now I’m both! I only go out to work two mornings a week - a Monday and a Saturday. The rest of the time I work from home My garden is a good size and is securely fenced in. I promise that your pets will be safe with me. I am very trustworthy.

About: I have always had pets in the family ever since I can remember. I regularly dog and cat sit for family and friends and enjoy it very much! I’m currently working part time so can work around pet care. If you drop me a message then I’m sure we can discuss the most suitable times that work for you. I have a large garden with a fence all around, the dogs and cats that I care for love running and playing in the garden.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and helped care for our two family pets — a loyal German Shepherd and a mixed breed who’s now 14 years old and still going strong! These experiences gave me a strong foundation in pet care, but it’s my own rescue pup, Theo, who’s truly taught me the meaning of patience, love, and connection. He’s full of character and reminds me daily how special every animal is. Whether it’s lively walks or calm companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I currently work part-time with flexible hours, so I’m mostly at home and able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just comforting company, I make sure pet care is a priority. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort come first. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, fresh water, and a consistent routine. I follow any instructions given carefully and keep communication open so you feel at ease. I understand the importance of building trust with animals and always give them the time and patience they need to feel secure and loved.

About: I’ve been caring for cats of all personalities and ages for over a year, helping friends, neighbours, and family. My experience includes feeding, brushing, and keeping them calm while their owners are away. I’m especially comfortable with shy or elderly cats, and I always take the time to understand their individual routines and preferences. I’m currently working part-time at a hospital, which gives me a stable and flexible schedule. I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends to give your cat the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a quick visit or regular care during holidays, I’m here to help. I follow feeding instructions precisely, ensure litter boxes are always clean, and spend time playing or cuddling based on your cat’s personality. If caring for your cat in your home, I respect your space, keep things tidy, and send regular updates with photos so you can feel confident they’re in safe hands.
