About: I have been a devoted dog and pet person my entire life, having raised and loved my own dogs for years. Because of this personal experience, I completely understand the challenges, routine, and deep care that pets need to feel safe and happy. For a long time, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to check in on, feed, and play with their pets whenever they are away. I treat every animal as if they were a member of my own family. You can rest assured that your pet will receive all the love, attention, and proper care they deserve while you are gone! I am highly flexible and happy to adapt my schedule to your specific needs. We can easily coordinate a convenient time for me to come and check on your pet. If you are looking for home sitting, I am more than willing to adjust my daily routine to match yours perfectly and ensure your pet gets the best care Before the sitting, I always ask the owner for detailed information about their pet's personality, behavior, likes, and dislikes. I make sure to understand their feeding routine and any special medical or veterinary needs. Since changes can be stressful for animals, I strictly follow their usual habits. My goal is to fill the owner's shoes perfectly so the pet feels completely safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment

Lindsay did a drop-in visit for our cat Lola. She was friendly, professional and kept us thoroughly updated during her visit which gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely love to book Lindsay again to look after our cat.

About: I am a young professional living and working in Liverpool city centre. Since I was born, I have always had one or two family pets, and I am missing my dog - Margaux - who stays with my parents. I helped out with my dad’s dog sitting business while living at home, so I have experience looking after dogs of all kinds. I can drop in during my lunch break and/or after work (based in Liverpool city centre), with the potential for longer visits on weekends. Looking to feed pets, let them out and give them some attention while they wait for you to come home. Happy to send pictures and videos of your dog living their best life. Open to other pet needs, just ask!

About: Hi, I’m Jasmin! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. From the age of 12 until I left for university at 18, I ran a dog walking and pet sitting service in my village, caring for pets for local families. Since moving to Liverpool after graduating, I’ve continued looking after dogs and cats for friends and family, both in my own home and theirs, for anything from daily visits to longer stays. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love, and it’s remained a big part of my life over the years. I recently bought my first home in Liverpool, where I can offer a calm, safe, and loving environment for your pet. As I work from home, your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day, and I’m able to stick closely to their usual routine. I provide boarding, doggy day care, dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits, always tailoring my care to your pet’s individual personality and needs. I also have a large, secure outdoor area; pets will never be left outside unattended. I had my own beloved Pomapoo, Crunchie, for 16 wonderful years, who sadly passed away in November 2025. Towards the end of her life, she required ongoing medication and extra care due to multiple health conditions, so I’m confident administering medication and caring for senior dogs or pets with additional needs. Losing her reminded me just how much our pets mean to us, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with them. For the last 4 years I have also shared my home with an Exotic Shorthair cat called Cloud, giving me plenty of experience caring for cats as well as dogs.( PLEASE NOTE: I no longer live with a cat I am a pet free home.) I know that every animal has their own unique personality, preferences, and routine, and I always take the time to get to know them so they feel comfortable, secure, and happy in my care. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated like one of the family. Whether they enjoy long walks, playing games, curling up on the sofa for cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and in loving hands. I know how difficult it can be to leave a beloved pet with someone else, so my goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member or members! I work from home, so I’m able to provide your pet with plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. This also allows me to stick closely to their usual routine, whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or medication. I’m flexible and available for boarding, doggy/ cat day care, walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week and at weekends. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with a large outdoor area. I’ll always follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and any special requirements, to help them feel settled and at ease. As I work from home, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive lots of love, attention, and companionship.

About: We’ve had pets at home including cats and birds since I was a child. I love all animals and they love me too x I’m currently working from home so am quite free currently - ideally from noon and beyond. I understand the stress of leaving your baby at home when needed so I’d try to be as flexible as I can. I’ve currently got one kitten at home. I would take care of your babies as I do mine and am happy to play / go on walks as well.

About: My service set that I provide is dog walking, exercise, house sitting, and a daily emotional support and while their family is away. I've been looking after dogs of all shapes and sizes for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I'd take care of my friends' and family's dogs whenever they went on vacation and needed someone to step in. I’d walk them, feed them, play with them, take them for runs, and even wash them—treating each one like they were my own. Making sure they felt safe and comfortable was always my priority. I also have some house-sitting experience along the way. All the dogs I've had were either adopted or found. I've rescued several dogs from the streets, including the one that became our family dog. Anytime I found an animal, I'd always take them to the vet for a check-up to make sure they were okay. Im currently working part time, which would give me plenty of time to look after your pets. If dogs love running I would have them join me on my little adventures around Chester. I am an active person who enjoys going around parks and finding new places to walk. If I was to take care of pets in the owners home I would try and keep their routine as if the owner was there. Care for them as my own and love them. Lots of cuddles and pets so they don’t feel lonely and will be excited to see there owner back home.

About: Hi, I’m Christina, I’m a fun, energetic dog lover who puts my whole heart into every walk, whether that’s an exciting explore around the neighbourhood or a relaxed stroll at your pup’s own pace. With two years of experience dog walking back in Cyprus for family friends and neighbours, I know how much trust goes into handing over your dog to someone new. Every dog is different, and I love getting to know each one’s unique personality and needs. You can count on me to keep your dog happy, safe, well-exercised and with plenty of enthusiasm and good vibes thrown in. 🐾 Working part-time gives me a fantastic routine for pet sitting. I am fully open for weekend boarding and completely free on weekdays starting at 2pm. This allows me to dedicate my afternoons and evenings entirely to feeding, walking, and playing with your pets. During our walks, I focus entirely on your pet—managing track behavior, avoiding stressful encounters with other animals, and following any specific training commands you use. I am also happy to send you quick photo updates and a map of our route after every walk!

About: Hi! I moved to England 4 years ago, and unfortunately I couldn’t take my little dachshund with me. (Even though it left a hole in my heart, it makes me happy knowing that she is living her best life with my parents). However, I find it extremely difficult to stay away from dogs’ presence. I have taken care of my friends’ dogs before: from 4 months old puppies to adult dogs, and it has been a lovely journey. Making them happy, makes me happy. Therefore, I would LOVE to look after your dogs at times when you have other commitments which don’t allow your fur babies to join. I work from home most of the time. Depending on your own preferences I am very flexible and willing to accommodate any requests to suit your dog’s needs to make them feel like they are also on a little holiday, also I will happily provide you with daily update, photos and videos on a daily basis. I will gladly take care of pets through the night and during the day. I make sure their daily routine is similar to the one they usually have at home, so the time they eat, go out, and do their necessities.

About: I work from home a lot so have lots of time to dedicate to pets. I have been pet sitting on rover and pawshake since 2022, but have pet sit for friends/family previously. I grew up with dogs and have always loved to spend time with animals. My dogs are in the first picture on my profile! Archie (beagle cross) is 14 this year and Oscar (doberdor) sadly passed away last year. I had them both since puppies, as well as a guinea pig and fish! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and will provide the same care and love as I’d want for my own. I was responsible for providing medicine when they were ill so I have experience with that. I will put in 100% into the care of your animal and be sure to show him/her a lot of love and provide many photos of your happy pet🥹🐾 I am in University 9-12 on Tuesdays, 11-1 on Wednesdays and 1-4 on Thursdays. I also work a part time in which I choose my own shifts so I am very flexible with my time. I care for pets with consideration for their individual needs and I also respect their owners boundaries, both in their house and outside with their pets.

About: I have completed my zoology degree and have experience at the RSPCA, a doggy day care and a veterinary practise. I also have a CPR certificate specifically for choking or drowning. I work Wednesday to Friday, so I’m fully available for pet care on Mondays, Tuesdays, and some weekends, during these days I am able to do morning or evening walks and check-ins. I am also available Wednesday late afternoon/evenings. I provide care in the pet owner’s home so pets can stay in a familiar, low-stress environment. I follow your routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. I take time to build trust with each pet, using a calm and patient approach, and I’m attentive to their behaviour and needs. I make sure homes are kept secure, pets are always safe on walks, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I do not offer boarding in my own home, so all care is provided in yours.

Really lovely in person and lovely with my cats, my cat Iris is quite shy with strangers where as her brother Kai is a social butterfly and she made sure both got as many cuddles as they wanted even when Iris wasn’t the most outgoing . Went above and beyond to make sure they were okey and no request was too much to ask. Highly recommended especially for those of us who are really attached to your pets ❤️

Lindsay is a fantastic sitter, 5stars is not enough. Took loads of time on the pre visit to built trust with my cat and took extensive notes on all our routines. Great coms throughout and flexible with all my last min changes. Lindsay would send a video montage every day of Nova and it's obvious that my cat was being really well looked after and loved. Excellent service, couldn't ask for more.

Thank you for looking after our cat Misa last minute. Xiaomian came over to meet Misa and collect the keys and understand our needs before we left for our trip which was great. She left detailed updates with photos which was so reassuring for us. It was clear she dedicated time to understanding what toys and snacks Misa prefers. We also had a pet camera up (which we alerted her about) but this was no issue for her as she understood it’s to keep an eye on our baby!:) Overall Misa had a great time and now she meows at me every morning - I think she is wondering ‘where is Xiaomian with my snacks?!’

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 use the 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.
