“Amy was fantastic with Beanz! She communicated clearly throughout, and made the whole process stress-free. She spent time playing with Beanz, and it was obvious he was happy and well cared for. She also kept his food and water bowls clean, and I came back to a tidy kitchen. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future, highly recommended!”
“Marcus was the perfect cat sitter - made a preliminary visit to confirm their needs and always provided clear communication about his visits. I felt 100% reassured that they would be safe in his hands and will be re- booking him if I need a cat sitter again in the future.”
“Ariah had a lovely day of checkins with Katie while my husband and I were out! Felt very safe leaving her in Katie's care, and we got lots of pictures to see how much fun she was having. 😊 Very quick and clear communication, will definitely be booking again!”
“Samantha was great with Elsa (Cat). We really felt at ease knowing that she was well looked after. Elsa takes time before feeling comfortable with people shendoesnt know however, with Samantha that wasn’t an issue. Communication was provided daily and Samantha attended when she said she would. Would highly recommend Samantha as a pet sitter and if available would use her again :) Thanks Samantha.”
“Clarrisa did a fantastic job looking after my cat while I was away. Communication was prompt and clear throughout which put my mind at ease. On the visit I recieved a detailed report, including photos from Clarissa of how my cat was and the important playtime she had. Thank you Clarissa for looking after my little baby!”
“Georgie was absolutely fantastic. Seeker is very timid and takes a long time to trust new people, while Rowan is reactive and can be quite particular, but they both relaxed with Georgie almost immediately. Seeker was soon curled up beside her, and Rowan proudly brought out all of her favourite toys to show her, which says everything. Georgie was incredibly reliable, kept us updated with lovely messages and photos throughout, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy pet sitter.”

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs at home and have always loved being around animals. I have a large home, so there is plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m also the person my friends and family trust to look after their dogs and cats whenever they need someone. I genuinely love animals and enjoy giving them lots of attention, cuddles, playtime and care. I’m responsible, caring and always make sure pets feel happy, safe and at home. I’m not currently working full-time, so I have plenty of free time to care for pets. I occasionally work a few afternoons, but most of my time is flexible and I can give pets lots of attention and care. I’m happy to care for pets in my home or in their owner’s home. In my home, they’ll have plenty of space and a safe, comfortable environment. At the owner’s home, I’ll follow their usual routine and instructions so their pet feels comfortable and settled.
About: I was raised around all types of dogs and have over five years of hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs, Milo and Clifford. I’ve also regularly looked after dogs for family and friends over the years, building trust and confidence in providing safe, loving, reliable care. Milo and Clifford are friendly, neutered, and love having playmates. 🐶🐾 I work during the week, which makes me perfectly suited to caring for pets while owners enjoy weekend getaways. I’m also available for morning and evening walks or drop-in visits during the week, ensuring pets receive consistent care, attention, and routine even when you’re busy. 🐾 I care for every dog as if they were my own, following their usual routines to help them feel safe and settled. Owners provide their dog’s food to maintain their normal diet, and I have a crate available if needed. I also have a secure, fully enclosed garden for safe playtime, plus easy access to plenty of open fields for long, enjoyable walks and exercise. 🐶🌿🐾
About: I have had my own own dog, a lovely mixed-breed rescue called Teddy and have looked after dogs professionally for ten plus years. I am used to many breeds including rescues and large breeds. I will treat your dog as my own! X I currently work from home in tech/software. I tend to be in for most of the day only leaving for 3 hours maximum. I enjoy being out at the park, on the beach or walking up the Seven Sisters National Park, all of which is behind my house. I live very close to the beach. My home is on the ground floor, comfortable and I have a huge dog bed and plenty of toys.
“Fiona is lovely. She looked after our 3 cats visiting twice a day for a couple of days taking the time to listen to their needs and our preferences. They were clean, played with and well fed. I would definitely recommend and will be making a future request.”
About: I have owned 4 dogs in my life & have just got a new puppy! I used to own & run a successful dog walking business called Kay's K9 Dog Walking in London for 6 years until I went back to the corporate world. I'm now living in Brighton & would love to get back to walking & sitting dogs as I miss it. I am currently available full time for dog boarding, house sitting and dog walking. I live on a large boat in Brighton Marina with my puppy, so please don't book me if you are not happy with your dog being onboard! Your dog will get lots of walks & I have an outside decking area with a grass area to go the the loo. I am home all week & have plenty of time to exercise your dog. I live in the Marina so there are lots of lovely routes to take. I live on a boat in the Marina. There is enough space & can accommodate a small/medium dog. I have an outside deck too. I would take care of your dog as if they were my own.

“I was anxious leaving my cats as one is poorly and on meds, and both can be nervous. Had daily messages to confirm they were fine and were taking meds with no trouble. Was nice to have a pre-visit so Caitlin could meet them, and the cats could get used to a new person.”
About: My brother has a beautiful chow that I watch regularly. I’m very active and would love to have a companion (whether just a walk or a sleepover). I appreciate that each dog will have their own unique personalities and needs, and I’m happy to work around that. I walk each morning and evening, so I’m really interested in walking/boarding dogs. Please get in touch if you need support! My house has a fenced garden, nearby parks (< 2min), and room for them to relax. I don’t own a pet currently but watch dogs regularly x I mainly work from home so looking after pups fits in well with my weekly routine. With enough notice I can work from home which allows me to care for dogs during the working week. I’m vigilant, caring and enjoy spending time with dogs. I am happy to meet up before the booking, particularly if a dog is staying with me, so they can familiarise themselves with the space.

Anna jumped in to help look after our two rather elderly cats. We received daily updates with pictures and felt reassured that the cats were okay and being looked after. Very happy to recommend Anna if you need someone to pop in and feed, fuss and clean up. I think our cats are missing her!
We were so happy with the care our two cats received while we were away. They were well looked after, happy, and relaxed when we got home, which says everything. We got regular updates and photos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear they were treated with genuine care and attention. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and will definitely use again. Thank you for taking such great care of our cats!

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.
Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Lewes pet parents with similar pet households.
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 Lewes 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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
