“Amanda was a wonderful housesitter! She looked after our dog for a few days, giving him plenty of walks and enjoyment. She looked after our house and communicated clearly and in a very timely way. We are looking forward to being able to use Amanda again and highly recommend her for house and pet sits!”
“Raffi was so lovely and professional throughout the booking process and stay. She looked after our cat so well and sent pics throughout - we will definitely be booking again!”
“Boris had an amazing time with Rebecca. She obviously has a great love for dogs and went above and beyond with the care she provided for him. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Joanne was lovely from start to finish of our booking. As soon as I met Joanne I felt totally at ease about leaving George and Fleur with her and also in our home. Regular updates and pictures recieved, even a lovely card and treats left at the end of the stay, which was so kind. We would have no hesitation in having Joanne stay with George and Fleur again.”
“My dogs settled with Amy pretty fast which is saying a lot because they are very needy and anxious when I leave them. Amy made me feel very comfortable instantly, even on our first meet and greet. I got loads of updates and felt stress free leaving my babies with her.”
“So lovely, made sure to communicate with us with all news regarding Pluto and Pluto was very happy to have someone with him all day! Will definitely book Sameer again. Lovely guy, and made me feel at ease to be at work whilst the dog was at home!”
“Thank you Zrin for looking after Suki! We have gotten updates every couple hours and Suki was well looked after, more than we could ask! Our trip away was stress free because of Zrin! Thank you again 🤍”
“Huge thank you to Katie. This was the first time i have tried to trust someone with my baby Thor. Katie is kind and has a lovely way about her and is clearly passionate and caring. Was on time, kept me updated throughout the day with pics and my dog was happy when I got home. He must have enjoyed himself , slept and enjoyed his time with Katie. It’s such a big thing firstly to trust someone with your fur baby but also to have someone in your house. I would highly recommend Katie and will definitely book again. Thank you!”
“Would 100% recommend Nicola. Felt very comfortable leaving Arlo with her, she asked all the right questions before to make sure she had everything she needed and then provided a beautiful report with photos afterwards as well. Left the house exactly as she found it and left a very contented boy who clearly enjoyed her company.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have been around various of animals! I studied level 2 animal care as well as Level 3 extended diploma in equine care! I’ll treat them like my own and give you daily updates and will keep to their routine 🩷 I currently have spare time due to changing of jobs! I’m available most days and afternoons and can also do house sitting for you! I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while their owner is away. 🐾 I always follow their usual routine, including feeding times, walks, medication if required, playtime and plenty of attention and cuddles. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’m happy to adapt to their routine and preferences. I’ll also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for complete peace of mind. Having grown up around dogs and with extensive experience caring for animals, their happiness and wellbeing will always be my priority.
About: For the entirity of my life I have known I want to have a job that involves working with animals. I have truly experienced so much when it comes to them, and I feel very fortunate to have had many of these experiences. On a trip to Venice when I was younger I helped the police catch a dog that was on the loose, to eventually return it to the owner. When visiting family in the Cayman Islands I helped out with rescuing and rehoming dogs who had been badly treated by their owners. During my Duke of Edinburgh I volunteered at the Tarbay Kennels and Cattery for 6 months which I then continued doing weekly for much longer because I loved being around the dogs. My love didn't stop here though, after I finished my GCSE's I decided to do a course in Animal Management (level 3 extended diploma) at Berkshire College of Agriculture which I completed with a DMM (Distinction Merit Merit). During this time I also went to South Africa to Volunteer with conservation work in the Kruger National park. I was also doing occasional dogsitting for a lovely family near Warfield while I was at college, which also turned into overnight housesitting sometimes. After returning from university I have decided that I would love to go back to working with animals and have been walking an elderly lab twice a week, which I absolutely love doing and look forward to every week! Finally I have 3 years of experience working in an exotic fish shop, so if you have a fish tank I can also take care of it while you are on holiday! I'm currently doing a lot of part time work which is mainly over the weekends so I have plenty of free time during the week! On weekends I am doing both bar work and serving tea and coffees at a pop up stand both at Reading Hockey Club. I like to fill up my week with plenty of different dog walks that keep me out and about so I will make time for you! For Dog Walking: I am very comfortable with walking dogs of all sorts and will keep them on the lead at all times unless you specify that they are fine to go off the lead. As a person who cares deeply about the environment, I would like to be within cycling range of your house and will not transport dogs anywhere in a vehicle. Because of this its ideal if you have a park or a green area within walking distance of your house for your dog/s to have the optimum experience. I prefer to use your equipment for dog walks as the dogs are more familiar with it and so will be more comfortable (this includes lead, harness (if required) and treats, and preferably poo bags too). Personally I hate mixing dogs with other dogs from different families so I will only walk multiple dogs if you have multiple dogs! For Dog Sitting: I have done a fair bit of dogsitting in the past but you will need to let me know different things about the dog/s, e.g. how often they need the toilet during the night or what time you like them to eat. I am very comfortable with giving your dog/s plenty of attention and enriching them with different activities! Final Note: I am not comfortable with caring for extremely brachycephalic dogs, e.g. Bulldogs & Pugs, as I do not agree with the ethics in breeding them.
“Josh looked after our basset hounds and did a superb job! He kept us informed all along the way and sent the must needed photos to show the dogs were chilled and relaxed. It was a pleasure to have him house sit our dogs and I would not hesitate to recommend him!”

About: I've walked and looked after Dogs of all kinds and ages since I was 12, as well as growing up with Dogs and Cats, Rabbits and Ducks.

“Coco had an amazing time with Jess. She probably didn’t want us to come home! She took time to understand Cocos needs and even suggested a few things to try that we will now do also. We received lots of updates over the week and would happily leave Coco with her again.”
“Jamie was absolutely brilliant! We left Toby and our house in his care for six nights and I think the dog was disappointed when we arrived home!! We were updated daily with pictures and details from their numerous walks and adventures, and Jamie even took the time to sort an ant problem that cropped up while we were away! He did a pre stay visit to meet Toby and get to know the house, and left it immaculately clean after his stay. There was no doubt Toby had a wonderful time in his care and we came home to a very relaxed dog! He was super charming and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. Thank you Jamie!”

“I can't recommend Lana highly enough. She stepped in at very short notice to look after my dog for the weekend and was fantastic. She gave us regular updates and provided pics and video of him having cuddles and out on walks. We came home to a very relaxed and happy dog. She was also kind enough to feed and check on our two cats. I would not hesitate to book with her again and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Hannah was great, stepping in at the last minute when our previous sitter let us down. She kept us updated with pictures of the dogs on walks etc, they were very happy, well looked after, with the house very tidy on our return. Would thoroughly recommend!”
“Megan was absolutely fantastic with Rudi! She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, comfortable and well looked after, and it was clear from the moment we met her that he was in very safe and caring hands. Megan kept us updated throughout, and it was such a relief knowing Rudi was getting so much love and attention while we were away. She was incredibly thoughtful, reliable and clearly has a real way with dogs. We honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after Rudi. He absolutely loved his time with Megan, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾❤️”

Could not recommend Jessica more. She's been so fantastic looking after our 6-month-old puppy Pickle and he absolutely loves her. She looked after him for 24 hours and stayed overnight and sent lots of pictures & videos of him so we knew he was very happy. Took great care of the house too. She even made banana bread for us as we came back after getting married! Thank you so much again Jessica.
Elisha was fantastic! She was flexible, professional, and took excellent care of Bella while we were away. She kept us updated every day with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. We came home to a happy Bella and a spotless house. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Elisha again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring house sitter.
I can highly recommend Robert & Lizzie, we had the best experience with them. It was a fairly last minute house sitting request and we even managed to meet up with them a few days prior to the service to introduce them to our dog Lotte. From the first moments of meeting Robert and Lizzie we knew Lotte would be in safe hands, and they liked each other straight away. Their calm nature made us feel instantly ease. Everything went great and we received an update during the day with cute photos. Robert and Lizzie were friendly, punctual and reliable, I would definitely use them again!
Simon & Caitlin looked after our 2 small dogs for a long weekend while we were attending a family event. This was the first time we had ever left the dogs behind so we were a bit anxious - until we met Simon & Caitlin. One of our dogs is very nervous but she took to them immediately as they are very relaxed and obviously used to dogs. They listened carefully to our care instructions which reassured me. The house was clean & tidy when they left and we received daily updates. Would recommend them for pet sitting and would definitely use them again.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Maidenhead walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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.
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 Maidenhead 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!

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise

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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
