About: I grew up with dogs all my life, as did my partner Dan. We dream of having our own dogs when we get our first house together. Our current flat is not doggy appropriate. I grew up in a house with two dogs, cats, cockatiels, rabbits and everything in between. Dan also has had dogs (boxers in particular) all his life too. We're also a dab hand at watering plants, taking in deliveries and caring for your house while you're away! I'm a teacher, so if you're booking when I'm on holiday there are no problems. Daniel works locally in Haywards Heath, so it is sometimes possible for him to come home at lunches for potty breaks. We are best with weekends, half terms and breaks! We are adaptable to your lives and how the dogs live. We want them to be comfortable so would learn your routines, favourite walk route and tips for entertainment and try and mimic as best as possible. We just sadly cannot look after pets in our own flat at the moment!
“Gina was so lovely and communicative the whole booking. She was incredibly understanding when I had to change the time we initially met due to personal issues, and was really friendly and kind. We received photos and messages at every drop in which we really appreciated. Would definitely recommend Gina to others!”
“Once again Catherine did a great job sitting with my JR terrier who always seems content, calm and well fed when I return. Makes my trips out better knowing my dog is in safe and capable hands.”
“Alex was fab, dropping in on our two fur baby cats whilst we were away making sure they got attention, food & water. It was so reassuring to receive the photos and rover card updates.”
About: Why Choose Me? I’m a reliable, caring, and flexible dog walker with a genuine love for animals. As a shift worker, I can often offer availability outside the usual 9–5 hours, making me a great option for owners who need early morning, evening, weekend, or last-minute support. I have experience walking dogs with a variety of personalities, sizes, and energy levels, and I always take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs. Whether your dog loves an energetic adventure or prefers a slower-paced stroll, I will ensure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m particularly patient with puppies and younger dogs who may still be learning their manners, and I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and building trust. For your convenience, I will travel to you, and I offer a free meet-and-greet before any booking. This gives you and your dog the opportunity to get to know me, ask any questions, and ensure we’re a great fit before walks begin. Your dog’s safety, wellbeing, and happiness will always be my priority. I treat every dog as if they were my own and aim to give owners complete peace of mind while they’re away. ✔ Free meet-and-greet ✔ I travel to your location ✔ Flexible availability, including evenings and weekends ✔ Patient and caring approach ✔ Walks tailored to your dog’s needs ✔ Regular updates and photos available Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a shift worker, giving me flexibility to provide walks and care at different times throughout the week. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so dog walking is something I genuinely look forward to. I make time to ensure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need, whether that’s regular walks, companionship, or adapting to individual routines. Caring for pets is something I enjoy making part of my weekly life, not just something I fit in around other commitments. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after in either my home or a pet owner’s home. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space while ensuring their pet receives attention, companionship, exercise, and plenty of care. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means active play for younger pets or a calmer, gentler approach for senior pets. My priority is always keeping pets happy, secure, and cared for as if they were my own.
About: Hi! I am Tristan an experienced and caring pet sitter based in Burgess Hill. I am the sole carer for all the animals without any additional assistance so they get my focus. I treat every pet like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I am comfortable administering medications if needed. With a secure home, a flexible schedule, and a genuine love for animals, I aim to give your pets the same care and attention they’d get with you. Let’s set up a meet & greet—I’d love to get to know your furry friend! I work from home full time. I have my own Cockerpoo (neutered female) who is great with other dogs. I love to take my dog on walks in the area and take regular daily walks. Garden is fully secured and fenced and I am based at home so your dog will always be well cared for and not left on own for extended periods.
“Sophie helped out last minute with my 20 month old dog. She arranged an initial meet in her own time to come to my house and meet Percy. Sophie sent me detailed feedback from the drop in. I felt reassured and happy my dog was well looked after. Would not hesitate to ask Sophie to help in the future. Thank you!”
About: I have a genuine passion for looking after animals. As well as sights like Borrow My Doggy, I am also a member of Trusted Housesitters and have looked after a range of young, old, small and large dogs and have built up a great relationship with all owners I work with. I would love to be considered to look after your pet. I’m currently working partly remote, meaning I have more spare time to attend to the pets I look after, including more regular walks and cuddles of course! Despite living in a flat, it is extremely spacious with access to a courtyard and parks close by. I would be happy to show you around ahead of a service.
About: Hi, I am Charlotte, a 30-year-old Play Therapist with a lifelong love of animals. I grew up surrounded by pets, which sparked my passion for understanding each animal’s unique quirks and personality. Over the years, I have cared for many animals and genuinely find so much joy in building trust and connection with them. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I will take the time to get to know them and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and look forward to meeting more furry friends 😊 I run my own business as a full-time Play Therapist, which means I bring patience, empathy, and attentiveness into everything I do, including caring for your pets.

“Zoe replied to messages promptly, was clear in her communications and spent time getting to know Alfie and Poppy. I really appreciate the pictures of the doggos visit and updating status to let me know they have done their ablutions. The dogs were both very calm when I came home. Thank you 🙏”
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life as has my partner. I've mainly been around boxers (I can't remember a time that my parents haven't had a boxer). Gray has had a whole range of pets but always had a dog at home. Our current flat isn't dog friendly but we would love to have a pet when we move into a property more appropriate. We are also great at watering plants, taking in deliveries and caring for your house while you're away! We can work around your routines and mix walk, play and rest as required. We are also very understanding to each dogs individual needs. I currently work full time locally in Haywards Heath so I can pop round in the day time on my lunch break to let the dogs out whilst Gray is a teacher and can be more available during school holidays and weekends. We adapt ourselves to fit in with your routines and what works best for the dog. Our main priority is that while you are away your dog feels as comfortable as possible whilst in our care.
About: What you can expect: • A safe, calm, and loving environment • I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of company and won’t be left alone for long periods • Regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day • Care tailored to your dog’s routine and needs • Updates and photos so you always feel reassured • A reliable and responsible sitter you can trust I’m free on the weekends and working from home twice a week. I love spending time outside so happy to do multiple walkies a day. I currently live in a one bedroom flat so I could only take dogs that wouldn’t mind staying inside the flat. Would go for as many walks/ pee breaks as needed even during the night.
About: Hello! My name is Cami and I have been a qualified veterinary nurse since 2012. I love all animals and have many years experience caring for a huge variety of animals. Growing up we always had dogs as a family and I have done a lot of dog / cat sitting over the years. I am unable to have my own dog due to work etc so I love being able to care for others. I also love cats. I have an old male guinea pig called Waffles, a rescued dove called Pegasus and I share a horse called Billy. I work full time in the week Monday -Thursday 8.30am-5pm and I work every other weekend. I can do overnight stays and every other weekend. Unable to offer home boarding at mine due to my own pets - I have a guinea pig and a dove ! I am only able to stay at your home.
“Jennifer arrived promptly and dealt gently with my timid JR terrier, sending me feedback during the sitting. My day out all the more enjoyable knowing Tiggy well looked after.”
“Laura was an absolute star! She arrived on time, was very quick with her replies and communication, and best of all was so patient, loving and attentive with my very exuberant, jumpy Vizsla. She followed all instructions and kept me up to date with how my dog was getting on. I'd thoroughly recommend booking Laura - she clearly loves all animals (we have two cats and a lizard too!) and will treat your little fur babies like her own. I will definitely be rebooking, thanks so much :)”
About: I've grown up around animals my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Now living on my own in Bolnore Village, Haywards Heath! I'm lucky to be surrounded by beautiful fields, parks, and a huge open space right next to my flat, perfect for walks, playtime, and outdoor fun. I genuinely have to have animals in my life - spending time with them brings me joy and calm, and I make sure they feel that same comfort and attention in return. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will always have company, care, and cuddles. I work remotely from hove full-time. I rise early and enjoy staying in watching tv or finding another incredible spot around West Sussex to walk! Whether caring for pets in my own home or in a pet owner's home, I always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable, just like they would with their family. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I live in Bolnore Village, surrounded by nature and open fields, so dogs get plenty of outdoor time, stimulation, and exercise. I'm home throughout the day, so pets are never left alone for long and receive constant attention and care. When I care for pets in their own home, I respect their routine and space while offering the same level of love, company, and attentiveness. I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions from the owner, including administering medication if needed - I also used to be a live-in carer :)

Mid Sussex cat owners share their Rover experiences
Gina was brilliant looking after our cat for a week while we were away. She was caring, attentive, and made sure he was happy and well looked after. She also treated our home with great respect. It was the first time we had booked a cat sitter so it was such a relief knowing our cat was in such good hands, and we wouldn't hesitate to book Gina again. Highly recommended!
Emily made me feel very at ease and comfortable leaving my cat for a couple of nights. She sent photos for every visit and you could see how happy Giles was being looked after by her! Would absolutely recommend Emily and will definitely use her cat sitting services again if we need to!
Sophie was fantastic at looking after Mollie. Mollie can be quite shy but was super happy having cuddles and pets with Sophie. She did a great job keeping me updated throughout and I would 100% recommend Sophie for all your cat sitting needs! Thank you Sophie! ❤️
Billie was amazing and I’m so pleased I picked them to look after my cat while I was on holiday. My cat is quite anxious so I was worried about leaving him, but Billie was so attentive and kind, sending me videos and photos where you could see my cat getting more comfortable and relaxed with Billie as time went on - definitely recommend!
Robyn came to visit my 2 cats while I was away. Her updates were reassuring to see how my cats were doing. She even made friends with my shy cat who is scared of everyone. I'd highly recommend and will definitely use her services anytime I go away. Thank you!
Ellie was absolutely fantastic in looking after fury, so attentive in ensuring everything is looked after for him. She clearly has such a caring nature for animals and made us feel very safe leaving our cat in her care. Thank you so much Ellie, we’ll definitely be using your services again in the future!
Alex is amazing with both our cats. It’s been great having her when we are away or out knowing that they are so well looked after. We originally asked Alex to look after our older cat but when we got another kitten we were so lucky that Alex is able to handle the challenges of an adult cat adjusting to living with a kitten and a lively new kitten getting using to the family dynamic. We can’t thank Alex enough, thanks so much!
Iona was a breeze to have look after our boy while we were away. She was kind enough to come and visit a few weeks prior just so i could show her where things where and to get to meet our Caesar. The whole time we were away she kept us updated with daily messages and photos. This was my first time leaving my boy, and she was very respectful of my instructions that i left for him (even if i went a bit overboard). Lovely young lady overall! Highly recommend!
