Jo is an absolutely wonderful host, helping us out last-minute. And Nala (Jo’s dog) is the perfect friend for Ashlyn (our dog) to make on her “stay-cation”. Super awesome, highly recommend.

This was my first time using rover and I will certainly go back to John. Molly has had a great time, not sure she wanted to come home! I admit to being slightly apprehensive, but I had no need to be. She had good walks and lots of cuddles and I was regularly updated on her ‘holiday’. Thank you!

Derek and Angela made Conall very welcome and our family very much at ease. They helped us out in an emergency and it was very reassuring to know Conall was in good hands when we went away on our holidays. I have no hesitation in recommending Derek and Angela and your dog will be in very good hands.

We started using dog sitters 9 years ago and for the past 5 years specifically, we've been using Rover; we can say confidently that Louisa is the best we've ever had, and we would never change her! You can clearly see the care, passion, and professionalism that she puts in when she has a pet in her care. And not just from her, but her children as well! She sends daily feedback full of details and fun stories of your pet's day, which are always entertaining with her witty and hilarious commentary. After more than 3 times that Leo has stayed with her, you can see how he's become a member of their family too and has found his holiday home! He has never been more comfortable with any other dog sitter; and thanks to Louisa and her family, Leo has had tons of fun, new experiences that unfortunately we often couldn't give him due to time constrictions. So we've learned new things about our dog too and how he is in those new environments. We've already planned our next few stays for Leo, which we've never felt comfortable to do before as often as now with our peace of mind. Thank you Louisa! 🥰

About: Previous cat owner, adhoc care of friends dogs . Became proud owner of Findlay as a puppy, enjoyed many happy years long walks, swimming , lunching out with other doggie friends. Sadly l lost him this year as a result of longterm nuerological problems. So gained months nursing him whilst he was housebound. As a dog owner I have vast knowledge of local walks equally happy to go for wee danders or chill in my garden with less able dogs. Fully retired with no other pet care responsibilies, very flexible and looking forward to welcoming your dog. My dog was my daily life routine so free to support others . Secure back garden with grass and shady borders for hot days. Can take dog in my car for further afield walks if appropriate. Your dog will have full freedom of my house and garden.

Kim made sure Mokey was at ease and spoiled her lots, and was a very tired dog when we picked her up. Would recommend Kim to anyone, she’s great with dogs and spends lots of time and energy making sure they’re happy!

My dog had an amazing time with Glenn! It was her first time with a dog sitter so I was naturally a little bit nervous but after meeting with Glenn I felt really reassured and had no concerns about leaving Keiko. As she’s a Shiba Inu, the breed can be very hesitant of new people but she was letting him rub her belly within hours which was not something she has let others do before 🤣 He was very communicative with lots of photos and detailed updates and made sure to answer any questions I had quickly. 10/10 would book again 😄

Peggy clearly recognised Jessica’s house and couldn’t wait to get inside (a good sign!). She enjoyed walks, playing in the garden and relaxing in the house. Jessica let us know how Peggy was getting on so we were able to relax. Thank you Jessica!

About: Hi, I’m Gavin. I’m a caring and responsible pet sitter based in Bonnyrigg. I work part-time from home, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve. I live in a detached house with my own secure, fenced garden – perfect for playtime and safe outdoor breaks. I share my home with my friendly 2-year-old German Shepherd, who loves company and enjoys making new dog friends. My love for animals started early – as a teenager, I raised two cats and cared for them throughout their lives. That experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand different pet personalities. Now, I’m confident caring for both dogs and cats, from playful pups and kittens to seniors who need gentler care. I’ll treat them like family. I work part-time from home, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve. Home most of the day = lots of cuddles, play, and walkies I live in a detached house with my own secure, fenced garden – perfect for playtime and safe outdoor breaks. I share my home with my friendly 2-year-old German Shepherd, who loves company and enjoys making new dog friends.

Anne has frequently cared for my collie Skylar. It’s been a home from home experience for Skylar who has been relaxed and settled in Anne’s home & garden. Skylar a rescue has set routines which Anne follows.. Skylar always wants to go out during the night for the toilet which makes it difficult to find willing dog carers who will do this but no problem for Anne. Now my dog is older and on her final chapter off life she is always delighted to have a sleep over. Skylar is on oral painkillers now and Anne is well experienced in administrating this. If your dog likes big walks or little walks, cuddles and home comforts Anne will be a top host to your fur baby .
