Faith looked after our young puppy for four days and nights. She regularly kept us updated and Rex had a lovely time with her. She even got up through the night to settle and reassure him.

I just want to reach out and say a huge thank you for today.! I am so incredibly pleased with how things went with Mazie and Mudiwa. To be honest, after our initial meeting, l was a little concerned about how Mazie would adjust, as you know he can be wary of new people in our premises. However you clearly handled him brilliantly. Coming home to find the “boys” relaxed, happy and tired in a good way and settled made me so happy and relieved. It’s clear you have built a great rapport with Mazie and Mudiwa, and l appreciate the effort and patience you put in. Thank you again for such a fantastic job. It means a lot to know they were in such capable and caring hands. All the Best Gerald Rukambiro

About: Based in the Gillingham (Kent). I have taken care of many types of dogs and cats since I was a child. Many of my neighbours and family have pets and have relied on me to walk and feed them whilst they have been at work, away on holiday or in hospital. I work full time and will be mostly available on weekends. I work from home wed- friday so I will be able to house sit wed- sun 😊. I will take care of your pet any way you would like me to. Everyone is different and has different needs or expectations. Always best to allow the owner to take lead.

Keris house sat over the new year period and looked after our 3 maine coons. We don't usually go away or celebrate new years as the cats are afraid of fireworks so we don't like to leave them alone but with both of us not working we decided to take the opportunity to go away for 5 days and booked Keris. Throughout the 5 days Keris kept in regular contact with me with photos and messages to let me know that they were fine. I was actually really surprised with how they took to Keris so quickly as they are usually quite timid when it comes to new people but they found instant comfort in having her here with them. So thank you Keris for looking after them and ensuring they were happy and safe during the celebrations. We have already booked Keris to look after them again so we can go away knowing they are in goods hands.

Natalie is an amazing dog sitter! She stayed at my place to look after Coconut, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to do it. She clearly loves dogs, and Coconut absolutely adores her. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which was such a nice touch and made me feel totally at ease while I was away. Not only did she take great care of Coconut—lots of walks and cuddles—but she also kept my guest house super tidy. It was such a relief to come home to a happy pup and a clean space! I’d 100% recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a reliable and genuinely caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be asking her to watch Coconut again! Thank you Natalie xx

About: I have been around dogs since I was 12, I have extensive dog sitting experience for 4+ years now with upwards of 4 dogs at a time. My home is very often a doggie hotel, I have a Dalmatian, so daily walks are a must over here! I am well versed with both dog sleepovers and lengthy stays and adult dogs upwards to senior are more than welcome here. I am working from home often so pet care fits perfectly with my routine. I am available in easy access for pet care at anytime. I have a fenced garden that is perfect for running and playtime, we live very close to two lovely parks and have an open floor for the dogs to move around.

About: I've grown up with dogs, my dog as a teen was my best friend. We went everywhere together and she was always by my side, so I truly know how much a dog becomes part of a family and how much they mean to you. I've also had multiple rescue cats over 20 years, my current cat i found at 6 weeks old and hes now 10. Im always nervous to leave him so completely understand if you are too. 4 years ago I started looking after other people's dogs and soon gained regular dog sitting. I also took on 2 dogs as a temporary foster care while the owner was unwell. Taking care of dogs isn't just a job, it's a passion. At the moment im at home so can provide care for your pets majority of the day. Unfortunately due to having an elderly cat i can't accommodate any animals in my own home, but im more than happy to pet sit in the pets own home. I also have 2 children who loves animals just as much as i do, they've been taught how to take care of animals and know how to respect an animals boundaries. I currently have availability between 9 and 2 on weekdays without my children but if your pets are good with kids then these hours can be extended later and during weekends. My children absolutely adore animals and know how to care for them. Unfortunately due to having an elderly cat, I can't accept dogs into my home. I will follow any routine that your pet needs in your home, follow any guidance on how your dog is walked, personalities, etc. And I will take care of them just like I would my own.

About: From feeding and playing with animals filling busy homes to caring for older individual cats or dogs, every animal deserves the best treatment and compassion. I am happy to say I should be able to fit your furry friends in with my routine even at short notice as I work from home and enjoy the company of all animals, from aging cats to boisterous, larger breeds of dogs. I am available 7 days a week. I have a fenced garden with no other animals at the property ensuring a safe environment for your best friend. Play time and gentle company will always be available 24/7 when they stay.

Joe was fantastic with our dog over a three day stay. We booked very last minute, and he was incredibly accommodating and easy to communicate with throughout. Our dog was well cared for, happy, and settled when we got back. We really appreciated the flexibility and would (and hoefully will) definitely book with Joe again.

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since i was little. I’ve owned multiple horses and looked after my own cats and dogs for many years. I’ve grown up around them. I’ve looked after other peoples cats, dogs and horses since i was 13-14. I am also a part of the Fox Project which helps injured or lost foxes to be released back into the wild. I’m currently working part time at weekends at a livery yard, so I have plenty of time during the week to look after your pets. I am available at any time Monday to Friday . I would be very careful following instructions left by the owners on their facilities and requirements to keep their pets needs. I would also respect their pets space if necessary but provide all my love and care for them.

About: I have taken care of friends and family dogs over the years and currently have a cocker spaniel who is a ball of energy. I have looked after a variety of dogs such as French bulldogs, to sprniger spaniels and staffies, and also up to larger dog such as a vizla. I create a strong bond so they feel safe around me and in doing so this allows me to trust them that they will listen me on a walk or at home. I am currently without work so free to be with with your dog whenever. Wheteher it is popping over to your house so your dog can have a wee, or take them on a walk with either my dog if they want company or on their own. Alternatively I can sit and play with them at their house whilst my wife tends to our dog when she works from home. On a walk I have an energetic cocker spaniel who is more than happy to play with your dog in a field. He just wants to chase and be chased and is extremely friendly. Alternatively if your dog likes a gentle stroll of the streets I am more than happy to accommodate. If im house sitting or popping in I will makes sure they have food and water and will always give them a fuss, good ear scratch and play with them to help burn some energy.

About: Hello, I’ve been a dog and cat owner for over 12 years. Having lost my dogs last year due to old age I have now embarked on a dog grooming course which I will eventually open my own business from home. This currently allows me to have free time in my home to look after your family pet. This allows me to have all the cuddles and kisses and company from your pet rather than the commitment of owning my own pets again. With a weeks notice I’ll be able to be as flexible as you need. I am currently on a flexible dog grooming course currently which I am fitting In around my life. My house is a fenced garden with NO escape! So you wouldn't need to worry about escapees. I can accommodate to your structure with your pet also and stick to feeding schedules and walking schedules. I am very organised and punctual so sticking to a timetable is how I like to approach my daily life so jobs get done and in a timely manner. You can guarantee your pet will get lots of cuddles and strokes from me with undivided attention or if your pet doesn’t like that then I also know when to not cross that boundary.

About: I have over five and a half years of hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs, both in my own home and in owners’ homes. I come from a strong rescue background; we cared for over 30 cats at a time, rehomed cats internationally, and regularly rescued cats from the streets. For more than two years, I personally managed to feed almost 50–60 stray cats every evening, ensuring food, clean water, hygiene, and regular monitoring of their health and wellbeing with a friend's help, who was providing food. This taught me responsibility, consistency, and deep compassion for animals. I have also provided trusted in-home pet sitting for many families. Owners regularly chose me when travelling because they wanted their pets to stay comfortable in their own environment. I stayed in their homes for short and long periods, caring for cats and dogs, following routines, administering food, walking dogs, playing, and providing companionship. I always send daily photo and video updates so owners feel reassured and connected. I understand how emotionally difficult it can be to leave a pet behind, and I take that trust very seriously. I am calm, patient, observant, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. My goal is to give pets love, safety, routine, and comfort, and to give owners complete peace of mind. I’m a university student with morning classes on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I’m free most evenings and other days, flexible, reliable, and always prioritise pets’ safety. I had many cats back home and took care of the dogs of my neighbors and people from social media. I follow each pet’s routine exactly, learn their food, walks, and habits beforehand, arrive on time, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

We’ve just returned from our first week away, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care Jen gave to our dog, Lexi. Kennels would be far too overwhelming for her, and she’s the type who needs to really get to know someone before she’ll fully accept them — let alone share her bed with them! 🤣 From the moment Jen arrived, Lexi absolutely adored her. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such capable, loving hands. Jen kept us updated throughout the week with messages and photos, which meant we could relax and enjoy our holiday without a single worry. We feel so lucky to have found someone who understands Lexi so well. We’ve already booked Jen again for our next trip because there’s truly no one we’d trust more. Thank you, Jen, for taking such wonderful care of our girl. 💛

Felicia was a fantastic cat sitter! She came by beforehand to meet my cats and get familiar with where everything was, which immediately put me at ease. While we were away, she kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which was so reassuring—especially since my cats are quite timid. It was lovely to see them gradually warming up to her visits. On top of that, she even offered to collect a parcel that had been left with a neighbour, which I felt was really above and beyond. I’m so grateful for her kindness and care, and I’ll definitely be booking her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Medway

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Medway on Rover is £37.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 12,990 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Medway. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Medway 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 Medway 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
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
