“Duggee and Benji settled very quickly with Grace and they had a great time. Grace also looked after my son’s snakes. We were sent some picture updates and Grace left my house very tidy. I would absolutely recommend Grace with all your furry or slithery creatures 🐕 🐍 🦎 Thank you so much Grace. Xx”

“Very happy with Lani and the service she provided, so much so that I have already booked her for later in the year. She came to meet my pets beforehand, respected my home, took amazing care of my pets, provided updates and pictures. I was worried about leaving my dog due to the hot weather and being a bulldog they can be prone to overheating but Lani knew about the breed and I trust she would of researched ways to keep him cool and that he was in safe hands. Lani is also a really lovely person. I would happily recommended her for a pet sitting service.”

About: I’ve shared my life with cats and dogs for as long as I can remember. I live with my partner and our two rescue cats, Felix and Pixie, who we adopted from the RSPCA. I understand that every pet is different. Some want endless fuss and playtime, while others prefer their routine and a bit of space. My aim is always to keep your pet happy, comfortable and relaxed in their own environment while you’re away. Every visits includes: ✔ Fresh food and water ✔ Litter tray cleaning (cats) ✔ Playtime and enrichment ✔ Medication if required ✔ Plenty of fuss (if welcomed!) ✔ Photo updates after every visit Your pet’s wellbeing is always my priority. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, so I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I’ll follow their routine closely and keep you updated throughout your booking for complete peace of mind.

About: Hi, I’m Charly, a dedicated dog lover who knows that dogs are family, not just pets. I have over 20 years of experience pet sitting for friends and family, as well as 6 years fostering rescue dogs, helping them feel safe and settled while they waited for their forever homes. For the past year I’ve been walking dogs professionally, caring for a variety of breeds, ages and temperaments. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or a relaxed environment, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy and well cared for. My home provides a calm, welcoming space for dogs, and I have a fully fenced garden with plenty of room for safe play and exercise. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, so I always aim to provide reliable care, regular updates, and a loving environment where your dog feels right at home. I am currently working as a professional dog walker and can make my schedule work around you and your family pets needs you ask you and I’ll plan I have a fully fenced garden, for morning play and evening zoomies. There are plenty of countryside walks with walking distance and even more a few minutes drive away for those that like to go for a small ride in the car.
“What can I say, this is the first time we have had to leave our dog and cat with people they didnt know. John and Alison where amazing, we where sent pictures daily and the animals where loving life. We came home and the place was spotless. They are a lovely couple and we will definitely use them again.”

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and have had both cats and dogs since I was born. I have cared for my own 2 cats for the past 5 years. I’m a caring, responsible, and reliable person who genuinely loves animals and understands that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’d be happy to provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and cuddles, while making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m currently training in dance on Saturdays and every other Sunday in London. This makes me completely flexible Monday to Friday for any pet care needs. Depending on the pets needs, I’m able to adapt how the day runs. In my own experience, I’ve had cats with different health conditions which I’ve catered for. Getting to know the pet always helps you see how to make them the most comfortable

About: Hi, I’m Lily. I’ve had dogs all my life and currently have two of my own, Buzz and Lola. They’ve been with me for over 10 years, so they’ve quite literally watched me grow up. They’re family to me, and anyone who knows me knows I’m completely obsessed with them. Growing up around dogs has given me a real understanding of their different personalities, routines and needs. I’ve spent years caring for, walking and looking after dogs, and I love being around them. Earlier this year I took a job in London, and one thing I found really difficult was not always being around as much to walk my dogs. Luckily, I had family members that did this when I wasn’t there, but ultimately that’s what I enjoyed and I’m no longer working there and able to spend all my time with them. It made me realise how many owners are in exactly the same position. Sometimes work, holidays or simply life get in the way, and that’s completely okay. That’s why I decided to join Rover. I love being outdoors, I love spending time with dogs, and if I can help someone by giving their dog the walks, company and care they deserve while they’re busy, then that’s something I’d genuinely enjoy doing. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m reliable, caring and will treat every dog as if they were my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, so I’ll always take the time to understand their routine, personality and anything that makes them feel comfortable and happy. I’ll also make sure you stay updated while you’re away, with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe and having a great time. Pet care is my main focus at the moment, which means I can dedicate my time to providing reliable, flexible care throughout the week. My schedule allows me to plan my days around the pets I’m looking after, whether that’s walks, home visits or overnight stays. I enjoy keeping dogs company, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise and care, and I always adapt my routine to suit their individual needs. I only provide care in your dog’s own home, as I believe they’re happiest and most comfortable in familiar surroundings. Before every booking, I like to arrange a meet and greet where I’ll bring a short form to go through your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, walks, any medical needs, favourite sleeping spots, house rules and anything else you’d like me to know. That way I can keep their routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe and well looked after.
“Chloe is a outstanding dog sitter always updates you through her stay, she looked after our dog for a week and I was very happy that I choose her and confident that she was getting looked after, response time from messages was instant I have already asked Chloe if she would look after Layla again next year that’s how brilliant she is highly recommended. Big thanks again can’t wait to see you next year.”

About: I have years of experience looking after dogs, alongside completed practical dog-grooming training.

Rover Schedule I work a rotating schedule, working Wednesday to Saturday one week and Monday to Wednesday the following week. This means I have 3–4 days available each week for pet care, with my availability changing depending on my work rota. I’m happy to discuss dates and times in advance to make sure I can give your pet the time, attention and care they need.

About: Hi, my name is Bonny and I am from West Malling. My passion is caring for all types of animals. Growing up in a home filled with a variety of pets and wildlife, from dogs, cats, budgies, tortoises, parrots, and ensuring all the wildlife surrounding us had a safe environment, and rescuing any animal in need and all this grew my love and passion for all animals. 🐶🐈⬛ I learned early on how to understand animal body language, build trust, and provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each animals unique needs. My hands-on experience extends beyond domestic pets to wildlife rescue. 🐦 Whether it's managing an energetic dog's routine, comforting a shy cat, caring for avian friends, tending to scaly creatures or stepping up in medical emergencies, I bring calm confidence, deep practical knowledge, and genuine love to every animal I care for.❤️ Every animal has their own unique personality and their own little quirks which makes building a relationship and bond with each of them extremely special. I have two dogs myself which are a Cocker Spaniel and a Beagle cross, who are my absolute world and taking them on new adventures is something I love. I have experience with nervous and anxious dogs and dogs who have high prey drive and older dogs who want to take life a little bit slower and want that extra bit of fuss and attention. I have cared for animals my entire life, whether they are my own or family and friends special animals and I understand how important it is for animals to keep to their own routine and build a bond and trust with new people and this is something I will take my time to ensure each animal I care for feels safe and secure in my care. I track all my dog walks on Tractive and send a route map of each dogs adventure to their owners after. 📍🗺 Take a look at my instagram to see everything I offer. Instagram - pawsandclaws_uk ✅️DBS checked 🩺Pet First Aid Trained ✒️Fully Insured I will provide trusted pet care, tailored to your pets needs and routine. I will ensure your pets recieve the same routine with me they are used to and they will be provided with love and care throughout their time with me ❤️ I don't offer care for pets in my own home due to my own dogs needs, however I do care for animals in their own home or complete visits and walks as required. I will stick to your pets routine to ensure they remain calm and secure. I also track all walks and provide owners with a route map after the walk to show where each dog has gone on their adventures.

About: I’m a huge animal lover and have been my entire life. I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets. I have had cats my entire childhood and I have my own dog who I’ve cared for the past 10 years including teaching him all the tricks from a puppy that he still knows today. I also owned a pet indoor rabbit for 5 years who sadly passed this year so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust looking after your pet. I regularly dog sit for a neighbour and a friend, including feeding, walking, playing with and keeping their dogs company. I have looked after a neighbours cat for a period of time they have been away and I have also look after a friend’s rabbit and house while they have been away on a few occasions so I’m aware of different animals needs. I’m caring, reliable and will always treat your pets as if they were my own. All pets welcome🐶🐰🐱 I currently work full time, so I’m only available for pet care at weekends (Friday Eve-Sunday Eve). With enough notice some week days would be available also. I’m hoping to grow my pet care services and eventually make this my full-time job, which will allow me to offer much more availability throughout the week. I’m happy to try and be as flexible around your pet’s usual routine and needs🐾 Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide and make sure their usual routine is maintained. I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime and exercise, while treating your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would my own🐾

What can I say, this is the first time we have had to leave our dog and cat with people they didnt know. John and Alison where amazing, we where sent pictures daily and the animals where loving life. We came home and the place was spotless. They are a lovely couple and we will definitely use them again.
Becky was 100% + who gave Lulu &Harry lots of attention and care they both love Becky and she looked after them her home and left every thing clean and tidy even stripped bed and loaded dish washer and made contact when arriving and leaving I would highly recommend Becky for house sittting and dog walks she is top class with great personality

Lili was an ideal sitter and I can’t speak highly enough about her. The two dogs loved her and Lili sent me photos to let me know they were ok. I had a lovely weekend knowing they were well looked after and the house was immaculate when I returned. Thank you so much Lili.

Maisie has already spent time with our two little ones on several occasions, and each time she has been absolutely wonderful. She’s gentle, reliable, and always keeps us updated, which really puts my mind at ease. The dogs clearly adore her — they greet her with excitement every time, and we always come home to two calm, happy pups. 🐾💛 We’re always happy to have her back — highly recommend!

Jake is a consummate professional when it comes to pet & House Sitting. We took off to India for 3 weeks, safe in the knowledge that our high energy, mischief seeking ,Working Cocker Spaniel would receive the best of care. We loved daily Whats App Video updates and came back to a home which Jake had left in an immaculate state.

We cannot recommend Amii highly enough! 🌟 She looked after our two very lively girls (a bouncy 2-year-old Staffy and an energetic 1-year-old Rottie) for three weeks while we were abroad for our wedding, and she was nothing short of incredible. From long adventurous walks, to snuggles on the sofa, to brain-training and fun activities — she truly went above and beyond to make sure they were loved, stimulated, and completely happy. It was such a comfort knowing they were in such safe and caring hands, especially being such high-energy pups. Ami kept us updated with photos and messages, so we could enjoy our wedding without worrying for a second. We came home to two very content, relaxed, and clearly well-loved dogs. If you’re looking for someone who treats your fur babies like family — Ami is the one. ❤️🐾 10/10, would book again without hesitation!

Michael was brilliant with our German Shepherd Akira. We were nervous of leaving her with someone else, but he was so good with her. He gave her plenty of exercise and really clocked on to what she does and doesn’t like. Will definitely use Michael’s services 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 Maidstone 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 Maidstone 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. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 83% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
