“Vicky was absolutely fab with my boy Albie who is a crazy cocker spaniel. Albie came home very happy and I had great communication from Vicky throughout, I felt very at ease! Will definitely rebook again and would highly recommend to anybody!”


“Wish we could give 10 stars! What can we say about Steve and his care of our precious but super lively bundle of fun? From the moment we contacted Steve, he has been great at communication, we had an initial meeting- within seconds we could tell Steve is a man who loves dogs. The outstanding behaviour of his own dog, Laszlo shows he has great knowledge. When Storm stayed with Steve for a week, we had regular, twice daily updates, photos and videos, and could easily tell the our Storm was content and having a great time. Without any doubt at all we will ask Steve to step in again when we are looking for someone to look after our boy, I have total confidence in him and his family, who all welcomed Storm into their home. Thanks, Steve, it has made all the difference going away feeling confident our boy will be having a great holiday too!”


“I do not have to words to explain how fantastic Ivana, Andrew and Michela are, they are just such a wonderful, loving and caring family who looked after our 2 year old work cocking Marley for 4days/3 nights. From the initial meet and greet I was completely put at ease and knew I had found the perfect family to look after our fur baby. They treated Marley like part of the family and gave him lots of snuggles and fuss. Ivana’s communication was excellence and she regularly sent me messages, photos and videos each day. Marley had a fantastic little break and loved his stay. I am already planning for Marley’s next stay with Ivana and her family and plan to repeatable book with her, I feel so thankful to have found her on Rover.”


“He was attentive kind, and made sure she was happy and well cared for. I truly appreciated his reliability and the love he showed for animals. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!”


“I couldn’t have found a better board for Loki. From our meet and greet until I collected him I knew Kate was such a lovely carer for him. He was so loved and looked after and the regular updates were so reassuring that he was having the best time! It can be daunting to leave a loved doggie but Kate made us both feel so welcome and Loki was made to feel like one of the family. I hope I can find another opportunity for Loki to visit Kate and her lovely family xx”

“We needed last minute boarding for our two dogs and Robert & Amy saved the day! We got plenty of pics and updates while we were away so we knew they had settled in. Very much appreciated the flexible and friendly service and would recommend.”


About: We have always had dogs. I love taking care of them (and if I could I would have 100)! Whether it’s energetic pups who love long walks, senior dogs who need a gentler pace, or shy pets who require patience and reassurance, I adapt my care to each dog’s unique needs. I understand the importance of trust when it comes to your furry family member, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am currently working full-time so my flexibility is limited through week days. However I am fully flexible on weekends and more than happy to take care of any furry angels! I live by myself in a flat which is spacious enough for small and medium dogs. We have a backyard where the dog can play and I love taking the dogs on walks. No one will be involved in dogs’ care but me.

“I can’t recommend Dipali and her husband enough! They were absolute lifesavers when our original dog sitter canceled on us last minute, just before our holiday to Morocco. Despite never having met us or Pablo before, they kindly agreed to take him in without a meet-and-greet, and at such short notice. From the moment my brother dropped Pablo off on Friday evening until we picked him up on Tuesday, Dipali and her husband provided the most loving and attentive care. They kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Pablo felt completely at home—he was so happy and comfortable that he’s actually crying the front door wanting to go back! Dipali and her husband truly have a passion for dogs, and their kindness and dedication shine through in the way they care for them. I’m beyond grateful for their help and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Pablo!xx”

“Polly was the perfect dog sitter. My dog he can be quite nervous around people he doesn't know but seemed at ease straight away. Polly sent daily updates and it was clear from the photos my dog was enjoying himself and was comfortable with the family. Polly comes with my highest recommendation and I will definitely look to use her again.”


About: I spent my childhood on the farm where I lived with cats and dogs. I spent more time with animals than with people, and this made me love animals a little more than people. I spent the last year taking care of my friends' pets frequently and I enjoyed it immensely! And I said to myself, why don't you do this more often? As I said, I love animals a little more than humans and I don't think there is anyone who would want to cuddle your pets more than me. I am currently working online (online selling) so I have plenty of time to play with our furry friends! I am available for boarding any day of the week any time of the day. I have a fenced yard for dogs. (which is not so big but has enough space for 3 dogs) And have couple of dog toys and plenty of cat toys. If you have special requests for your pet/pets, I am happy to make them!
