About: I'm new to formal dog sitting, but dogs have always been part of my family and I’ve been informally doing this years. Every dog we've had has been a rescue, so I have experience with a wide range of personalities and needs. Because of this, I’ve also got experience caring for senior dogs and those with medical needs, including administering insulin injections to a diabetic dog and managing a controlled diet. I'm patient, reliable, and provide a calm, loving environment where every dog can feel safe and at home. I work at a desk most of the time so am just as grateful as your dog for the chance to get outside and stretch my legs! I work fully remotely Monday-Friday, 9-5pm so I can be attentive to your little ones even during the day and give you peace of mind that they won’t be in short supply of love and company when I’m sitting. As a pet owner, I know how much of a big deal it is to trust somebody with caring for your pet. So I’ll look after them by minimising disruptions to their routine and environment, so they feel happy and comfortable in my company, leaving them to their space and giving them love on their own terms. Clear and detailed instructions are always welcome!

“I cant say thanks enough for Josh taking care of Spickey, he was updating me at every walk, and when i decided to stay extra time at holiday Josh helped me to keep taking care of her for time. Spickey looked happy in all photos, so i knew she is well looked after, she is old and deaf dog, what did not bother Josh. I was calm, as he has all qualifications like CPR for dogs to take care of senior dog as well. Im so grateful for care he provided. And would highly recommend him! And will definitely use him again for my next holiday.”

“Imogen did an hour drop in on our 10 month old dog, Drogo. She took him for nice long walk and fed him for us whilst we were out. She came and met us and Drogo a few days beforehand and we immediately knew he would be in good hands, and he was! Highly recommend Imogen and wouldn't hesitate booking her again when needed in the future. Thanks so much Imogen!”

“Fantastic cat sitter! My cats tend to be really nervous around new people but when Nicola first visited they both came up to her and not ran away. She was great at following the specific feeding instructions and gave great updates each feeding sessions. I would absolutely use Nicola again in the future.”

About: I have two years experience with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens who need extra patience, structure, and positive reinforcement, to senior pets who require a gentler approach, slower walks, or additional comfort and care. I’m happy to follow your routine to help them feel at ease. I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of dogs and cats over the past few years, and caring for animals is something I truly love. I’m also a pet owner myself — I have a Pomeranian, a Pomsky, and two bunnies — so I completely understand how important routine, attention, and personalised care are for every pet. I always make sure the pets in my care feel comfortable, settled, and well looked after. I stick closely to their usual routines and ensure they receive plenty of time, attention, exercise, and affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: 🐕 I've loved animals all my life and grew up with both cats and dogs. For the last 10 years, I have looked after other people's pets, providing overnight house-sitting, daily walks or twice-a-day drop in visits. I genuinely love walking and am more than happy to do up to two 1-hour walks a day to keep your dog active and happy. When I care for your pet, they get my full attention, plenty of love, and a consistent routine. 🐈 Cat Sitting: I am equally happy caring for cats, whether they prefer lots of playtime or just someone to check in on them and let them know they're not alone. 🌟 My Experience • Senior & Routine Care: I have a decade of experience looking after elderly dogs, keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their familiar schedules. • Medication: I am patient and comfortable administering daily medications, including eye drops and oral liquids. • Leash Safety: I am very used to walking dogs that need to stay on the lead due to reactivity with other animals, and I always stay alert outdoors - I won't be looking at my phone while I'm with your dog! I'm self-employed and work at home so have a very flexible schedule which means I am happy to fit around yours. I'm also available at short notice. If I am looking after your pet in your own home, I will follow all instructions on how to keep your pet safe and happy, making sure your home security and your pet’s routine are my top priorities. 🐾 Clean & Tidy Space: I am a very neat and clean person by nature, so I will always respect your home and leave your house in tip-top condition for your return. 🐾 Following Routines: I strictly adhere to your walk times, feeding schedules, dietary rules, and medication timings to maintain consistency for your pet. 🐾 Home Security: I will be super conscientious about your home security, ensuring doors & windows are securely locked, alarms are set. 🐾 Leash & Outdoor Safety: On walks, I am always alert and keep reactive dogs safely on the lead, keeping my eyes on what's happening in the environment ahead to avoid potential triggers. 🐾 Updates & Peace of Mind: I am more than happy to send regular photos & updates so you can see how well your pet is doing while you're away.

About: I have grown up with animals, multiple cats and been around families dogs. I am caring, patient and love walking. I love animals, I would love to be able to spend more time with them. I am currently working part time, it’s 12 hours but it can vary to 25. I usually have Mondays and Thursdays off so for those furry friends that need all day attention I can do that. In addition to this, I am fully flexible besides the hours of 12/2pm - 7pm- within those hours I cannot do but before and after I am happy to do mornings and evenings. I have outside cats, but we have a cat flap so they always have access to the toilet, food, water etc. I buy treats on occasion for my cats and always play with them, i love making sure they’re happy and not bored. I love to go for walks and saying hello to dogs and playing with them.

About: Have looked after many different breeds for friends, family friends and acquaintances over the years and have yet to meet a dog i haven’t won over. i have looked after dogs that needed medication so can easily learn a routine if needed I am currently not studying so I have lots of time to walk dogs and take care of pets without any distractions and can be available often i have multiple good sized gardens with grass and fences plus access to nice private parks and can offer either a pet free home or one with a very friendly gentle dog

“Abi was great. Reliable and very reasonable price. My cat took to her immediately and she sat with her and fussed her, she didn't just feed her and leave. Me and my son would look forward to our daily photos from her check in. Will definitely call on Abi for our next break.”

About: I have a domestic shorthair cat and a family miniature Yorkshire Terrier, but I have had pets for as long as I can remember. Animals have always been a keen interest and passion of mine; I struggle to understand why people would not desire a four-legged family member. I understand that pet care can be a laborious and tedious task for some people, but I am not ‘some people’. I thrive in an animal’s presence and get genuine enjoyment from taking care of them. It is no hard task for me. Their precious and adorable features may have won me over initially, but their unique and charmingly silly personalities intrigued me - I want to understand what goes on inside their heads. This led me to pursuing an ‘Animal Welfare and Behaviour’ degree with Oxford Brookes University. I have over 2 years of experience studying and supporting animal care, backed up by achieving my level 4 and 5 qualifications, and going on to do my level 6. I have lots of hands-on experience thanks to the animal sanctuary at Solihull College, where my course takes place. I also previously volunteered at ‘Fat Fluffs Rabbit Rescue’, for 9 months in 2024, which involved daily health checks, administering medication, cleaning of enclosures, changing water, feeding, grooming and providing lots of enrichment and fuss to the rabbits there. Furthermore: in 2020 I oversaw the birth and helped raise two litters with my previous cat (we kept one of the kittens, who is now my cat named Clover). In 2023 we got a new puppy (the miniature Yorkshire terrier named Benji) who I helped rear and house train. In 2024, I helped a couple with their injured dog in London by applying gauze to an open wound. I may be a student, but I am responsible, reliable, and trustworthy, and this job allows me to be flexible with work and my studies. Your pet’s health and welfare are paramount to me, so I cater to their individual needs, respect and love them with everything that I have. Etiquette and decorum are also values I work hard to maintain so I ensure you that if you request a house-sitting or drop-in, you can have confidence that your house will be in good hands with me. I look forward to meeting and getting to know your pets and their one-of-a-kind and special personalities! I am currently on break from university for the summer so right now I am available most days. When I go back to university, I will have less time avaliable, but this work gain more experience working with animals. I can multi-task university assignments and work by bringing my laptop with me when house-sit. I assure you that you pets will be well-monitored when I do this as I plan to take regular breaks and work in the same room as your pet. If you would rather I did not multi-task this way please let me know! Boisterous or calm, big or small, shy or aggressive, no pet is too much for me to handle. Challenges help me learn and I have no fear of especially large or scary dogs or aggressive cats. I am very good at following instructions so if your pet has any special requirements, be sure to write it down on a note and I will follow it meticulously. I plan to do university work while watching your pets, so I plan to take regular breaks to check up on them

About: I have had dogs and rabbits growing up and have loved the company and fun they bring. I have done many rover jobs before but through my partners account (we used to pet-sit together) but would now love to do some alone!! I am currently at University so have lots of free time in holidays so am likely to be free and am happy to work around your schedule! I am not able to offer my home to your pets so would always be looking to stay at yours! I will treat your pets with love and safety, hoping i can create a bond with them to develop regular sits!

“James was very communicative, sent pictures and did everything we asked so we felt comfortable leaving our cats in his care. The only thing to note was that he only stayed for around 20 minutes each time when we booked at 30 min drop in.”

“Hollie-Mae is a wonderful sitter and a safe pair of hands. I’ve booked her a few times now and have always been really happy with how well she looks after my two cats. She’s reliable, caring, and keeps me updated while I’m away, which gives me real peace of mind.”
