“Eloise was very good with Hovis. She spent time beforehand getting to know Hovis and asked about about any specific requirements. She provided me with lots of photos when they were out on the walk.”
“Met Jade for a walk with Slinky as he can be very nervous and unsure of new people so keen to build a relationship. She was very patient and understanding of his needs, giving him the time and space he needed to get used to her. Looking forward to our next meet!”
About: Hi! I’m a 21-year-old animal lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve grown up around animals and have looked after pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, so I’m confident handling everything from energetic puppies to more relaxed, older pets. I’m really passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them some company and attention, I always try to match their routine and make them feel as comfortable as possible. I’d describe myself as very sweet, friendly, and easy to get along with, and I genuinely love building a bond with every animal I care for. You can trust that your pet will be treated like my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I’m a first year uni student with only three classes a week, so I have a lot of free time and I’m available during all hours of the day or night I’ll care for your pet exactly how you tell me to, I’m very good at delivering on instructions. I know all the guidelines for caring for animals in the safest manner
“James was fantastic. He called over to meet Freddie and bonded with him really quickly. He asked a few questions, so he knew Freddies routine. He sent photos on the walk. Freddie was really relaxed when we got home from work. I would definitely recommend James.”
About: I will ensure your pets come back pawsome! I’m a student but I have hands-on experience caring for very different kinds of dogs. I looked after a Shih Tzu with my mum longer than 10 years, who became blind in old age, and back home in Korea: two poodles and three bichon frisés who are very energetic and attention seeking. Through this I learnt how to be both gentle and structured calm care for senior dogs and active engagement for lively ones. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime and giving extra reassurance to dogs who feel anxious or need more attention. I pay close attention to behaviour and small changes, because pets communicate a lot without words. I’m naturally patient and affectionate with animals, and I treat them as family. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, cared for and relaxed while you’re away 🐾 WEEKEND: Full availability for All MONDAY: Full availability for ALL TUESDAY: Full availablity for ALL WEDNESDAY: Full availability for ALL THURSDAY: Full availability for ALL FRIDAY: FULL availability for ALL I have toys for your furry pals. I clean the room before meeting them and prepare anything else that may be required for your pets care and love!

“Christian was great and really helped us with dog walking during some busy days we had here! He was super kind to Fondant, and showed up everyday at the agreed time, even on discouraging rainy days.”
About: Hi. I’m a professional, qualified actuary based here in Leeds city centre. I have experience dog sitting for a range of dogs (including senior citizens). I’m hoping to build relationships with a few local dogs (and their owners!) for sitting and walking services. I’m located close to Leeds train station and typically head along the canals for walks. I work full time although my work is flexible with when and where I work meaning I can typically adapt my schedule to your needs. I’m very patient and I have cared for nervous dogs in the past so I’m used to quickly building trust with them. I enjoy walks around Leeds city centre or further afield in Yorkshire on the weekend. I live with my partner who is equally caring and loving of dogs.
“Thank you so much for walking our crazy cocker whilst we have been away. You made him feel at ease from your first visit and made sure he was calm and reassured. A good distance was covered during your hours walk which he would have loved! We loved the photos and feedback everyday whilst we were away and knew he was in good hands Thank you so much again, hopefully we will be in touch again in the future.”
About: I’m an incredibly attentive and fun loving dog sitter who has looked after dogs for all my life. I am great with all sorts of dogs, but particularly towards anxious dogs as I’ve always owned more sensitive animals. I am reliable, I have sharp time management and communication skills, and will do my upmost to keep your dog happy and relaxed under my care! At the moment I am a student, so I have ample time for your dog and their doggy needs! I can be an early riser or a night owl, whatever is required to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. I have plenty of toys and treats to bring with me to make sure your dog is as entertained as possible! I am also perfectly happy giving a more anxious or elderly baby their well deserved space. I am confident in crating dogs, giving medication and any other needs or routines your dog may require.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have always had a passion for animals. Having grown up around dogs and cared for my own, I have developed a strong understanding of their needs, routines, and behaviours. I am home full-time and available seven days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I have my own Lhasa Apso called Romeo, who I walk twice a day, so I understand the importance of regular exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, shorter strolls, playtime, or simply having company, I am happy to tailor my care to their individual needs.
“Would recommend Danielle, she came to meet me and Dottie before the first dog walk. Everything went well on the day and I would definitely be happy to leave Dottie with Danielle again. Thank you.”
About: I am a caring and responsible animal lover with hands-on experience looking after dogs. My family owned a black Labrador, whom I regularly walked and cared for, giving me a strong foundation in understanding the needs of larger breeds. I also currently provide regular evening sitting for my neighbour’s energetic puppy, which has helped me develop patience, consistency, and a playful approach to puppy care. I may not have years of formal experience, but I am attentive, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all ages and personalities. I would love the opportunity to ensure your dog feels happy, safe, and well looked after while you’re away. I am happy to provide regular walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, toilet breaks, and lots of attention to make sure they feel content and stimulated. I also keep a close eye on their wellbeing and routines, as I know consistency is key for a happy dog. For puppies, I can offer extra support with toilet training, sticking to nap and feeding schedules, safe play, and gently reinforcing any training you’ve started. I understand that puppies need patience, structure, and supervision as they explore their world, and I enjoy helping them learn and grow. Across all pet care, I am also able to administer medication if needed, provide grooming basics (like brushing and wiping paws), and keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel reassured. I’m also happy to help with small household tasks such as watering plants or bringing in post. Ultimately, my goal is to give your pets the same love, care, and respect I would give my own, so you can relax knowing they’re in safe and reliable hands. I am currently working Monday-Wednesday so I can provide pet care Fridays- Sunday expect for Sunday afternoons as I currently volunteer at cats protection during that time (unless given notice) I can only provide care and support within the pet owner's home at present. I will keep to their pet's usual routines to keep them happy and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter/toilet care, and lots of companionship suited to their personality. I give puppies extra attention with toilet training and play, and I always keep owners updated with photos and messages. I’m also happy to help with small household tasks like bringing in post or watering plants.
About: For the past five years I have been looking after dogs, cats, chinchillas, hamsters, birds and guinea pigs. I’m a devoted and highly flexible pet sitter who is available to take in pets of all kinds, whenever you require my help. I can’t wait to get to know your pets - I work a freelance job from home and I’m available 24/7 to spend time with them. Please note that the dog in my profile picture does not live at my property, the house will be animal-free when your pet comes to stay :) I work a freelance job, from home, which only requires a few hours of my attention each day. I’ll be able to look after your pet at any time of day, any day of the week. Our garden is fenced and we live opposite a green - I can take your dog out for a walk whenever he or she might need one. We frequently look after my family dog and have done for around five years, and last year we actually rescued an abandoned greyhound. He now lives with our friends and still comes to stay occasionally! I’m reliable and readily available, and can provide support to your pet whenever the need arises.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, starting with my family poodle, Holly, who lived to the amazing age of 18. Caring for her as she grew older, especially when her hips began to fail, taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and providing extra love to senior dogs. That experience also helped me support my girlfriend’s family dog, Slinky, when he developed a slipped disc, where my quick recognition of his symptoms meant he got the vet care he needed right away. Over the years, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs of all shapes and sizes, from afternoons to extended six-week stays, including breeds like Pitbulls, Dachshunds, Bichon Frises, Vizslas, French Bulldogs, and Pocket Bullies. I’ve also fostered dogs, which has been one of the most rewarding experiences, and regularly helped walk elderly family friends’ dogs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or providing comfort to senior pups, I bring genuine care, experience, and dedication to every dog I look after. I’m currently studying Clinical Dietetics at university, which gives me a flexible schedule during the week. I have free time on weekdays to offer dog walks and drop-in visits, and I’m fully available on weekends for boarding and longer stays. This balance allows me to give plenty of time, care, and attention to your furry friends whenever you need. I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment with plenty of room for your dog to feel comfortable, including space for a crate if needed. The building has a shared fenced-in dog area and the front door opens directly onto the viaduct garden, giving dogs a safe space to explore, along with scenic walks by the canal that are ideal for weekend stays. With experience caring for a wide variety of breeds and temperaments, I know how to stay calm and attentive in any situation, ensuring your dog’s safety and well-being at all times. Dogs are welcome on the furniture, so they can settle in and feel at home

I live in a house with a secure garden and close to a local park so they’ll have lots of places to be able to play and explore. I’d love to be able to support you and can promise I’ll give your dog the best care and cuddles while they’re with me! I work from home on Fridays, and I can also offer boarding or care over the weekend. My life is very dog-friendly and your pup would fit right in! I have a secure, fenced garden that your dog can explore and roam in safely as much as they’d like. I’d want to ensure that your dog felt as at-home with me as possible.

Dog owners share their Rover experiences - Leeds
Lima had three lovely long walks with Georgia. Lima is an active pup and needed to burn off energy while my mum was looking after her for a few days. Georgia’s walks clearly did the job! Lima was very happy and very content in the home and clearly had a lot of fun on the walks with Georgia! Would definitely recommend!!
This was my first experience with Rover so I was a bit apprehensive but Saffron quickly put my mind at ease. She was fab at communicating both beforehand and on the day and really took on board all the info I gave her and special instructions etc. She clearly really loves the pets she cares for as she went totally above and beyond what I expected. I will definitely be using her services again and I know Reggie will be excited to see her again soon.
Thank you so much for walking our crazy cocker whilst we have been away. You made him feel at ease from your first visit and made sure he was calm and reassured. A good distance was covered during your hours walk which he would have loved! We loved the photos and feedback everyday whilst we were away and knew he was in good hands Thank you so much again, hopefully we will be in touch again in the future.
Lucy has been absolutely fantastic with Stanley. She’s incredibly friendly, trustworthy, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. From the start, she made both of us feel completely at ease. Her communication has been excellent – always keeping me updated and letting me know how the walks have gone, which I really appreciate. It’s such a comfort knowing Stanley is in such caring and capable hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog walker.
Esme was fantastic. She was really open to my asks on how to manage my dog, who is young and excitable. She had a great way with him. It was clear that she was really experienced with dogs and her professional experience with children gives her a added advantage. Would recommend.
Blu is fantastic! I feel so at ease knowing my girl is with Blu. She’s so great with Cherrys quirks and reactivity around other dogs, which I know can be tricky. I know Cherrys is in good hands with Blu. She is so willing to help out if there’s any change in schedules or anything and Cherry seems to love her walks!
Shubham has been absolutely wonderful with our dog. From day one, it was clear how kind, patient, and genuinely caring he is. Our dog gets so excited when Shubham arrives and always comes home happy and relaxed after their walks. He’s reliable, friendly, and great at keeping us updated, which really puts our minds at ease. It means so much knowing our dog is not just walked, but truly cared for. We’re so grateful to have found Shubham and would recommend him wholeheartedly.
Thank you for taking Alfie out two times now 😁 Rosie has been really great with Alfie. She sent me updates during the walk and let me know when she dropped him back safely at my house. She is very bubbly and trustworthy. Will 100% be asking if she can walk him again 😁

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 Leeds. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Leeds.
