About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly understands that pets aren’t just animals—they’re cherished family members. Whether you need help while you’re at work or away on a trip, I am here to provide your best friend with the same love, attention, and security they receive at home. My journey with animals has taken me across the globe. Having lived and pet-sat in both Australia and the UK, I’ve had the joy of caring for a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. From high-energy pups to gentle seniors, I am comfortable and confident working with dogs of all shapes and sizes. My background in professional babysitting has also helped me develop a high level of patience, responsibility, and an intuitive approach to care. I know how to stick to routines, manage dietary needs, and—most importantly—provide plenty of companionship and play. I currently share my home with a beautiful, energetic Dalmatian, so I am very well-versed in the needs of active breeds. Whether your pet is a tiny companion or a giant gentle soul, I have the experience to keep them safe, happy, and exercised. I pride myself on being communicative and detail-oriented. You can relax knowing your home and your pet are in dedicated, trustworthy hands. I would love to meet your furry family member and provide them with the care and companionship they deserve. Feel free to reach out with any questions! Because I work as a supply teacher, I am currently heading into a seven-week summer break, which means my schedule is entirely open. I am able to commit fully to your dog’s care, providing dedicated attention day and night. Aside from the occasional, short errand—typically just a couple of hours at most—I will be right there with your pup. Whether your companion needs an extra-long morning walk, active play throughout the day, or just some quiet companionship on the sofa in the evening, I am physically and mentally present to provide it. During our outings, I practice proactive awareness, keeping a firm grip on the leash and maintaining a safe distance from other dogs or traffic to prevent any unexpected incidents. My goal is to be a calm, observant, and highly attentive presence, constantly monitoring your dog’s body language and comfort levels to ensure that your home remains a peaceful, stress-free, and safe sanctuary while you are away. When caring for your pet in your own home, my top priority is maintaining a secure and familiar environment where they feel completely at ease. I begin by conducting a thorough "safety sweep" to ensure all entry points are secure and any potential hazards—such as stray cords, household plants, or cleaning supplies—are safely tucked away. I strictly adhere to your established house rules and routine, ensuring that feeding times, walk schedules, and any medication requirements are handled with consistency. During outings, I practice proactive awareness, keeping a firm grip on the leash and maintaining a safe distance from other dogs or traffic to prevent any unexpected incidents. My goal is to be a calm, observant presence, keeping a close eye on your dog’s body language and comfort levels so that your home remains a peaceful, stress-free sanctuary while you are away.

About: Hi! My name is Jodie and I love pets! I’ve grown up with cats since I was 7 years old and love their quirks and personalities. I’m always happy to drop in to see your fur baby and give them the attention they need. Feeding, play time, strokes and affection and litter box duties I’m all fine with and love to reward them with treats too. I’m an experienced cat sitter and have had a good amount of repeat bookings. I always try my best to honour last minute requests where possible too. Communication is super important to me and I’m always careful to share lots of updates and photos when I’m visiting. I currently have a 2yr old tuxedo kitty who is the most awesome lil princess, full of sass and lots of love. I’m also a dog lover and have spent lots of time with dogs belonging to friends and family and have been a dog sitter too. As with cats, I’m happy to carry out all the usual walking, feeding, playing, stroking and poop picking duties that goes with having a dog! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! I work flexibly from both home and in the office. I work a 20 minute walk away from the office, which means I have a lot of availability. I don’t have children or any other regular commitments other than work! When pet sitting, I always ensure I chat with the owner so I’m aware of anything I need to be mindful of in the home or with your pet. I always remain respectful of surroundings and would abide by any house rules and also keep with your pet’s routine. I would always take time to meet your pet and ensure that they are comfortable being around me, hopefully seeing that I’m there for play time, attention and a lot of fun!

I’ve volunteered at rspca, Oakwood dog centre and cats protection, helped rear baby kittens and I’m currently at university study zoology in hopes to go on to animal conservation I’m part-time at the moment and able to work most nights and weekends.

I live 5 minutes down the road from a dog field. My dog (shih-tzu) has a 30 minute walk a day is fed on both wet and dry food. My animals are not left for more than 4 hours a day as there is 3 of us at home who work different shift patterns and we all love animals.

About: I have grown up with dogs always around me, and have always loved spending time playing and walking them. I have taken care of dogs since the age of 15 when looking after friends and family’s dogs whilst they were on holiday I’m currently working full time remotely so I am at home all the time. My job allows me to be flexible throughout the week for toilet breaks, walks and drop in visits. Boarding: I work on the basis that whatever your dog is used to at home I try to replicate as close as possible to make them feel relaxed in their new temporary environment - if your dogs sleep next to you upstairs, then they will with me or if it’s important that they stay in a different room for example then I will do the same - the same goes for their eating habits, walks and general day to day routine. :) I have a garden with walls on either side so your fur babies are always safe. I have a dog of my own who is their to keep your dog company while they are with me. He loves playing and cuddles.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Kingston upon Hull
I would very much recommend Yuchong for taking care of my dogs whilst I was away and I would definitely ask her again. She was so polite and courteous and obviously loved dogs as mine were given lots of love and cuddles. I had written down my daily routine regarding my dogs which she said was very useful and good for the dogs keeping to their normal life even though I was away. The house was left clean and tidy.
Another wonderful dog sitting service from Julie, Larkin is always so happy when she comes and we get regular updates and videos so we never have to worry about him. She takes good care of all his needs and makes sure that he sticks with his routine. Always a delight to have her in our home and we don't feel like she's a stranger! Thanks Julie.
Fantastic dog sitter. Max took to Kayleigh straight away on the first meet and greet and she managed his excitement and energy beautifully. I got updates, photos, and reassurance throughout the day. You can tell Kayleigh genuinely loves what she does. I felt totally comfortable leaving him in her care and will definitely be booking again.
Rosie was amazing, easy to speak to. Can have a laugh and a smile when you meet and greet, She was so patient and kind with my Oakley, he is a large breed and it often puts people off, however Rosie was nothing like that she adored him! (Big dog but wouldn’t hurt a fly lol) Rosie took in everything I had said and was really effective. I recommend Rosie for anyone who needs support with their pets when away. She’s reliable and understanding. No better person to have with your dog. I’m so pleased and will definitely be a repeat customer. Again Thank you so much for your help and time. 💗💗💗
We booked Laura via Rover to look after our two small dogs while we were away for a wedding, and we couldn't be happier. It was such a relief to know they were in safe hands. We received regular pupdates with pictures, and the girl's seemed completely relaxed when we arrived home. Would highly recommend Laura and we look forward to using her again in the future!
Mollie is fab and we'd highly recommend. She looked after our dog over a weekend. Our dog is a rescue terrier and is very cautious of new people so we were worried about how we would cope. Mollie is very reassuring, relaxed and very knowledgeable about dogs. Mollie kept us up to date all weekend and we were amazing how much our dog loved her when we went to collect him. 100% will leave our dog with her again
Caitlin as always comes with a high recommendation! I’m so grateful for Caitlin’s adaptability and kindness when I pester for a last minute request due to the demands of my job. I’m forever grateful to have found Caitlin, Riley loves her company, loves their strolls together and loves her in general. Thank you as always Caitlin
I found Laura to be excellent. Her pre-visit communication was excellent as was her daily updates while I was away. My dogs were in excellent condition and happy on my return and the house was beautifully clean and tidy. I would have no hesitation in recomending Laura or asking her again to look after my dogs.
This was my first pet sitter I have had to have, and was very unsure as my dog Curly has only ever been with me.. But on having a pre meeting with Eve everything fell into place such a pleasant young lady and Curly instantly got on with her.. so was well relaxed with the process and the sitting arrangements.. recieved some updates on Curly so that was a nice touch as i was in Hospital..No issues what’s so ever and would highly recommend this young lady and possible use her again during my recovery period 🙂🐾🐾🐾🐾🐶

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Kingston upon Hull walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Kingston upon Hull choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
