About: Dogs always had an affinity for me as a child (my sister tells me it must be how I smell??) We had cats growing up so could never own a dog, however I always volunteered to walk my neighbour, cousin and auntie's dogs (spaniel, akita, labradoodle) as I loved being around them as they calm me. I love to learn a dog's personality but understand the vigilance and caution a dog walker needs to have as animals can be unpredictable. I currently work full-time from 9-6, but am available in the early mornings or evenings for busy pooch owners. Weekends are fully open for me. I will always talk to a dog owner about their pet's needs. This includes dietary restrictions, health conditions, personality or behavioural factors, and anything else that's vital to keeping a dog safe and content.
About: I have taken care of dogs for neighbors, family members as well as my own for about 7 years. I have walked, bathed, played and cared for several dogs. I am currently working part time and have plently of days throughout the week that I am available to walk and care for your dogs. I have extensive experience in caring for dogs while neighbors or family members are away and have plenty of time to feed and walk your dog while you enjoy your holiday.
“I had no worries leaving Natasha to pop in and walk / feed my dog. She followed all instructions we gave her and she sent through a very detailed description of the time she spent with him. Would highly recommend.”
About: I have dealt with a puppy and a senior dog when I was young within my family and last year I started to foster dogs through the Dog trust foundation. I have dealt with both small and large dogs and feel comfortable dealing with lively or relaxed dogs. I have a laidback personality what helps when you have to deal with many different quirks of dogs. I had family dogs between age 7-12 and begun fostering dogs last year. I’m a student at Leeds Beckett University who loves animals and especially during the summer I have some time my hands! I know how hard it can be for dogs during this heat especially and would love to help where I can. I can’t currently care for pets in my place as I’m in a student flat but I’m willing to travel to you:) I have enough experience with dogs to know to make sure they are comfortable around myself especially when entering someone else’s home, even if it takes time for them to settle feel okay.
“Thomas is amazing with our puppy. He always follows our instructions and will check in if anything is unclear. From his updates our puppy looks like he is having the best time! Thank you Thomas ❤️”
About: I’ve had dogs since i was born, ranging in sizes between a french bulldog and a boxer. Caring for dogs from 8 weeks all the way to 12 years old. I’m extremely attentive and reliable and would make sure your pet is in the best hands whilst you are away, i work part time so have plenty of time to check in with your pet throughout the day and make sure all their needs are met, I would ensure your pet feels no anxiety whilst you are away from them with regular check ins with play and care throughout the day and if needed provide care for them throughout the night.
“I highly recommend Charlotte as she is both gentle and reliable. Despite my cat Tippi newly adjusting to the loss of her brother Seamus, Charlotte was able to give her reassurance enough so that Tippi relaxed and responded to her attentions. Charlotte's daily pics were of great comfort. I will happily have Charlotte take care of Tippi going forward.”

Having competed with horses for much of my young life I am very relaxed around animals and have a genuine passion for pet care. I am very proactive and love doing long walks.

I approach every job with the upmost respect toward other peoples property and beloved pets. I’m a clean and caring pet sitter with a range of experience.
About: I've grown up with cats and dogs, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. I have experience caring for friends and families pets whilst they’ve been away so their pets could be at home. My first part-time job was at a veterinary practice, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals. I genuinely love spending time with pets and understand how important it is for them to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently between jobs so have plenty of time to care and play with pets! Therefore my schedule is very flexible for pet sitting and dog walking. I want to try and replicate a pet owners routine as much as possible to keep the pets comfortable and happy. I enjoy long walks and playing games as well as cuddling up to the pets in the evening!
About: I am a animals lovers and I take care of different animals starting from kindergarten. I studied animal care while I was highschool so I havd a good foundation for taking care of animals I am currently a student, so the time is flexible. I can visit your house or walking a dog during my free time. I wish I could meet animals everyday! I can easily understand whats dog and cats need with my past experience and my knowledge from my animals care education. Also I am a careful person, so you can rely on me while I am looking at your pets
About: I only offer dog walking. 3 days notice required I have taken care of 6 dogs all at once. I was accompanied with the guy who has a business with dogs and we went to the park to walk them all. He also made me aware of any dangers that could happen while walking the dogs. It was a great experience I’m currently working but as I finish work early 2pm sometimes 4 pm I have time to walk any dogs in the evening. There’s a few parks near my home. I would like take dogs for walk only in Leeds city centre as I don’t drive. There’s a few parks near my home, so very convenient
About: Hi my name’s Mark, I’m absolutely in love with nature and the animals that live in it. I did zoology at universary and have had experience with taking care of pets in the uk and abroad. While living in Cambodia on an island, I helped out with charities who came over to do regular check ups on stray beach dogs which was very fun to help with! In London I had 2 snakes but unfortunately was not able to bring them with me when I relocated to Leeds. I love pets and can’t get enough of interacting with pets that I run into on my normal day job and in the park! There is nothing you can’t ask me to do, even if it’s to help with general tasks around the house, I’m happy to help with anything!
“Pooja is very professional and very sweet with my Evie we went to our nieces wedding very stress free knowing my Evie was in good hands. Definitely l with book Pooja for my next Adventure (vacation ) trip.”

About: I haven’t owned a dog myself yet, but it’s something I’ve always wanted and I’m hoping to get one in the near future. In the meantime, I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience looking after friends’ pets, including both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel settled and cared for while their owners are away. I really enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they get plenty of attention. I’m really active so love going for walks. I work full time, so I’d be looking for early mornings/evenings in the weekday. I work from home so could be flexible on lunch times too. I have a good availability over the weekend.

Dog owners share their Rover experiences - Leeds
Cody was super friendly and very responsive. Pepsi is quite a large and energetic dog and Cody had no problems looking after her and giving her the attention that she wanted. I will 100% be using her again for any sitting needs I have and I would highly recommend that anybody else uses her in the future :)
Jess did a drop in for our boy and could not recommend her more! Simba is reactive and can be slightly nervous around new people but Jess was brilliant with him, kept me fully up to date and he seemed very chilled and happy with her, we’ll definitely be booking again!
Lindsay is amazing, my girls are hard work and the little one is fully in the juvenile stage of growing up, teething, testing boundaries and loads of energy. Lindsay has taken it totally in her stride, been very warm and super communicative. She’s brilliant
Lizzie was great with Maple. She came over for a visit beforehand to make sure that everyone was happy. She asked lots of questions to make sure that she could give the best possible care. On the day I had lots of updates to say she was on the way to the house, during the visit, and afterwards. I was really happy with how things went. Thank you!
