“Fantastic couple kept in contact from the minute I asked to book with them, Gary set up. Meet up date so we could meet prior to taking my boy to them. Both Gary and Anita were very welcoming when we arrived to meet up, then from the minute I dropped my boy off, to when I picked him up they were in giving a couple of updates every morning and evening. As much as my dog was happy to see me when I picked him up. I knew straight away, he had been treated like their own pet and was very calm and relaxed. He had the best time with Gary and Anita and I will definitely book with them again if they have availability the next time I need someone to look after my cheeky but loving boy.”


“The request was last minute and they were very responsive and immediately available. The communication was great, I received many photos and updates of my little Robbie! Very happy with how it went. This was the first time for us leaving him with someone else and I think it went great!!”


“Wow! We couldn’t recommend Sean highly enough. Mabel has made a new friend in Sean and was so happy to go and spend the night. Lots of updates and pictures of what mischief and fun she was getting up to. This was our first time using Rover and we were a bit unsure about what to expect, however Sean was so helpful, friendly and made the whole experience for us and Mabel a joy. We would absolutely love it if Sean could look after Mabel again one day! 5 stars, 10/10. Thank you Sean!”


“Karen was lovely with my dog Charlie. He can be a bit nervous without me but she kept me up to date and he was really relaxed and happy when I picked him up. I would absolutely recommend Karen and will use her again!”


“WOW! What an amazing find. Michael is a fantastic ‘sitter’. Our first time leaving Kali and knowing she can be a little nervous we were apprehensive when we left her despite having previously met Michael to introduce Kali but we needn’t have worried. Michael gave Kali some wonderful long walks taking in woodlands and water which she loves. His home is lovely, clean, very dog friendly and has a great garden for dogs as well. Cuddles on the sofa appeared to be the order of the day after returning from the walks! Regular updates photos and links to where they were walking provided us with the confidence that Kali was being well looked after. We would have no hesitation in recommending Michael and asking Michael to look after Kali again in the not to distant future.”


“I highly recommend Emma. Archie has just spent a lovely weekend with Emma and her family. She sent me regular photos of Archie enjoying his walks, play and of course his sleeping, which he does a lot of. 😁 Emma is friendly, professional and very helpful. Archie was very happy in her home and settled in quickly and even seemed reluctant to come home with me at end of stay.🫠”


“First time using Rover and happy with the experience. Our dog has only been left with our daughter for any length of time so initially apprehensive but Buster took to Carol quickly and seemed to have a great time. We thought he was going to be on a one to one basis but he had the company of two other dogs during his 11 day visit which worked out well as he's a very sociable dog. We will certainly use Carol in the future if the need arises.”


About: Hi! I’m Nicola and I’m here to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. 🐶💛 I’ve been caring for dogs for a few years from playful puppies to wise seniors. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, snuggles on the couch, or just a trusted companion while you’re at work or on holiday, I’ve got it covered! At home, your pup will have a built-in buddy — my Cockapoo, Jude! 🐾 Jude is playful and loves making new doggy friends, so your pup will enjoy great company during their stay. I take the time to learn each dog’s unique personality and routine so they feel safe, loved, and stress-free. Your pup’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! 🦴 What you can expect: • Regular potty breaks & walks • Lots of playtime and cuddles • Daily photo and video updates (if you’d like) • Clean, safe, and cosy environment • Quick responses and reliable scheduling • Love and attention like they’re my own! I work from home full-time, which means your dog will never be left alone for long stretches of time. I’m able to give them plenty of attention throughout the day I currently live in a flat, and whilst I don’t have a garden, I make sure your pup gets plenty of regular toilet breaks and outdoor time throughout the day. I'm close to safe, dog-friendly walking routes, and I love taking dogs out for fresh air, sniffing adventures, and a good stretch of the legs! 🐾 Your dog will enjoy a cosy, clean, and calm indoor environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and of course, cuddles. Plus, they’ll have the company of my Cockapoo, Jude, to keep them entertained!

About: I’ve always had dogs since I was young and have always hated using impersonal kennels. I have a small, friendly pug who loves being around all dogs. I have a lovely, secure garden and access to great walks nearby. Your dog will be well cared for and treated like one of the family. I cannot overstate how much we love looking after dogs and they are our top priority - we know how much they mean to you and we will make sure they have a holiday of their own! I work from home for some of the week and also have family members who are available to help. Dogs can sit with the family in the evening for plenty of cuddles. I have a securely fenced garden and room for a crate if required. I have a small pug to keep your dog company. I will check your walking schedule with you beforehand and do a meet and greet ahead of time if desired.

“We met with Barbara before our planned stay and was really reassured at the level of care she would provide. We have just returned from our holiday and Dora has returned happy and relaxed. Barbara was willing to attend to an ear problem which involved medication oral and topical that Dora developed a couple of days before our holiday. Barbara’s home is a home from home and I don’t think Dora missed us too much. Regular walks and tummy rubs too!!! Barbara kept us updated throughout our stay with text & photos and we have already requested another booking.”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life — from a high-energy Rhodesian Ridgeback-Boxer mix to a laid-back (but chew-happy) Golden Retriever, and three working Cocker Spaniels. I’ve also had cats, hamsters, horses ….animals have always been a big part of my day-to-day. Since moving into a flat, I really miss having a dog around. I work from home full-time, so I’ve got the flexibility and time to give them proper attention. I’ve looked after a range of different breeds and have a diploma in pet nutrition, so I’m confident caring for dogs with all kinds of needs. I spend most of my free time walking and hiking — luckily I live right next to a nature reserve, so your dog would get plenty of outdoor time. I’m looking forward to spending time with a four-legged friend again. I work from home full-time. Can look after dogs/ cats all day and walk regularly. Any weekday and weekends if given notice. Also available for holidays ! I have a large flat which is very dog and cat friendly. I understand this may not be ideal as no garden. However, I live next to a nature reserve which I walk in everyday. Also a keen hiker so can take on long walks at lunch or after work .

“Once again, a wonderful stay for our aging pup. Always fully updated by Karine and never any concerns. I'm always so relaxed when he stays with her as i know he is in great hands. Spoilt by all the family there too. Thak you Karine x”


About: Hi! I currently share my life with my rescue dog from Cyprus, who I brought home 1.5 years ago, an experience that taught me lots about puppy training and deepened my passion for canine behaviour and psychology. Nala and I love long walks, building trust with each dog, and creating a calm, happy environment for them to feel safe and loved while you’re away. Your dog will be treated like one of my own! I currently offer dog sitting from Thursday to Sunday or Friday to Monday, perfect for weekend trips or short getaways. I work from home two days a week, which means your dog will always have company and care. Rest assured, your dog will never be left alone during their stay. Constant companionship, regular walks, and lots of love guaranteed! I offer dog sitting in my own home, where your dog will be treated like one of the family in a calm, safe, and loving environment. I stick closely to your dog’s usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, or bedtime rituals, to help them feel secure and relaxed during their stay. I work from home two days a week, so your dog will never be left alone and will have constant companionship. My home features a medium-sized, fully fenced garden for safe playtime, and I live on a private drive off a quiet country lane, with orchards and a public footpath just at the end of the drive, perfect for peaceful countryside walks. I also have experience administering medication, so if your dog requires extra care, you can rest assured they’re in safe, capable hands.

“Nikki and her family are so kind and patient with our crazy rescue dog. It's easy to leave our dog because we know she'll be treat like one of the family, she always comes back happy and calm.”


“Wow how fantastic is Megan I could see straight away when I met her that my Albert was in safe hands, reassuring me daily with photos and texts. I have come back to a more confident pet with Megan encouraging Albert to feel at ease with other dogs and he now wants to go out for a walk! I cant thank Megan and her partner for taking such wonderful care of my baby, I will definitely recommend Megan to all my family and friends without any hesitation x”


About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my personalized, detail-oriented care and deep love for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering consistent updates, following specific routines, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away Pet care is a natural and meaningful part of my daily routine. I intentionally structure my days to prioritize the needs of the pets I care for—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime. It’s not just a job; it’s a rhythm I genuinely enjoy and a responsibility I take to heart When pets stay in my home , I focus on comfort, safety, and routine. At my home, pets enjoy a secure, fenced-in garden for safe outdoor play and plenty of space to relax indoors. I maintain a calm, clean environment and stick closely to each pet’s usual schedule—meals, walks, meds, and cuddles included. In a pet owner’s home, I’m respectful of the space and make sure their pets feel at ease in their familiar surroundings.
