“Oleksandra is a lovely person and my dogs took to her immediately. She took great care of the house and updated me frequently. The photos looked like my dogs had fun and I would happily rebook her.”
“This was the first time we have ever decided to leave our dogs for the day. Robyn came 4 days before the day we requested to meet the dogs. They took to her straight away. On the day, Robyn was on time and we went through everything with her. We got updates during the day on how they were doing. Robyn was fantastic with our dogs and put or minds at ease. She is very caring and loveable with our dogs.”
“Oliver was perfect , we really appreciated him looking after our spaniels. We had not used Rover before and i was nervous especially paying in full way in advance, however once i got used to the app and chatted to Oliver through the protected system it worked a treat ! Firstly well done Rover on your app ! But above and beyond thank you to Olivrr for arranging pre visit meeting shortly after booking ( several months in advance) Then a preparation visit where i showed him around my house and took him for a lical walk. He was so obliging and engaging, whe he first met my dogs the eldest was incontinent and it wasn’t an issue he cares about the responsibility of someone’s home and animals. Luckily by the time we holidayed the dog had got better but even so Oliver took the advised precautions to protect the floor overnight in case of accidents. The house was as clean and tidy as I left it and he had bought some flowers to welcome us back! I wouldn’t hesitate to re book , and I highly recommend Oliver for your pet care.”
“Morgan was absolutely brilliant while looking after Cocoa . She was professional, kind, and incredibly communicative throughout. We really appreciated the regular updates and how attentive she was to Cocoa’s needs. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was in such safe and caring hands. Would highly recommend Morgan to anyone looking for a reliable and genuinely lovely dog sitter!”
About: I have had dogs as long as I can remember. I had the most beautiful Newfie up until two years ago. Currently I have an 14 year old Jack Russell who struggles to walk and can be looked after by the rest of my family if I am away. I have grown up with newfies, cats and Jack Russell’s. Always had at least one or two of each at a time. I am currently a mature student and my hobbies include studying in some lovely quiet surrounding while Also taking (well, until the last year or so as she’s not longer able) my dog on adventures up Mountains, beaches and to new place - her being unable to now is what is driving my need to do this for another dog. I am currently studying for a degree as a mature student of nearly 50 years old. My beautiful Jack Russell is 14 years old, deaf and going blind. We used to have adventures every day and I desperate miss that as she can no longer walk more than 20 minutes at a time anymore. She will stay home with husband and kids while I’m away. I would love to look after your dogs/cats and take them for walks or adventures or just cuddles or playing whatever they need or want. After all their needs are seen to I can concentrate on my studies and on my breaks can take them for comfort breaks or little walks for a change of scenery. I dot look after pets in my own home as my poor of Jack Russell is not an animal ‘person/dog’. I would never put her happiness at risk. I only look after pets in their own home (because that’s also where they feel more comfortable - especially when their loved ones are away). I happy to follow whatever schedule they’re used to or prefer. I’m happy to do king adventurous walks or smaller/shorter walks through the day.
About: I have experience caring for a variety of dogs, including a Shih Tzu and a Pug, as well as other breeds belonging to friends and family. I’m confident with feeding, walking, playing, keeping dogs company and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs. I’m patient, attentive and will always treat your dog as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your dog. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I’m also happy to work around your dog’s usual routine, including their normal feeding, walking and play times. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medication, routines and house rules. I understand that every dog is different, so I’ll take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and settled. I’ll also keep you updated while they’re in my care so you can have peace of mind.
About: I’ve never met a pet I didn't like! Growing up in a house full of diverse animals, from energetic pups to unique reptiles, has taught me how to bond with all kinds of personalities and species. I understand that every pet has a distinct "voice," and I pride myself on being a patient, observant caregiver who treats every animal like a member of my own family. I offer dedicated dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. For High-Energy Dogs: I love hitting the trails for long, vigorous walks or runs to ensure your pup burns off that extra steam. For Seniors or Shy Pets: I’m experienced in providing gentle companionship and following specific medication or feeding schedules. Beyond Dogs: Thanks to my background, I am also very comfortable caring for cats, small mammals, and reptiles. I work full time but my job has a different schedule every month, and I've got plenty of days off during the week and some availability during work days. I get my schedule one month in advance so I can commit to long term bookings and I've always got some availability for last minute bookings. I'll take care of any pets as if they're my own. With all the care and love they'll need. I've got plenty of experience to know what they'll want to feel safe and comfortable.
“Zoia was amazing looking after my cat, Liquorice. She was so trustworthy, caring, and responsible, and it was clear from the start that Liquorice felt comfortable with her. Knowing she was there meant I could fully relax and enjoy my time away. She also left the place lovely and tidy, which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Zoia to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and genuinely caring with their pet.”
About: I've had dogs all my life including rescues and more difficult dogs. Happy to walk them, play with them or just chill with them if they need some company! Experienced in administering medicine. I have a car and I'm happy to take dogs on fun walks to parks for better exercise. I lost my golden retriever back in November. Not yet ready for a new dog, but I live with my brother who owns a Dacshund who I often walk and play with. I want to spend time with animals because i lovw to be around them, no matter the size or breed. I work full time Monday to Friday so have availability on evenings amd weekends Happy to follow any rules in place regarding diet, exercise, medecines etc. I've looked after difficult dogs before that can't be around many people so I understand dealing with different pet personalities. Big or small, I'm happy with any dog or cat.
“Luisa did a fantastic job sitting for my newly rehomed 1 year old pup. She took the time to pop over and meet him the day before which I really appreciated. She was great with Freddie who seemed to take an instant liking to her and was very patient and understanding of him being quite new and also a bit unsettled by an emergency vet appointment that day. Would happily recommend and use her services again.”
“Brad had great communication from the first time I messaged him, he came ahead of the booking to meet Lola and saw the booking through as requested. He was nice and considerate the whole time and Lola loved him. She is strong and pulls on walks but Brad managed her well. We can home to a happy pup and cared for home. Will 100% book Brad again.”
“Simon & Caitlin looked after our 2 small dogs for a long weekend while we were attending a family event. This was the first time we had ever left the dogs behind so we were a bit anxious - until we met Simon & Caitlin. One of our dogs is very nervous but she took to them immediately as they are very relaxed and obviously used to dogs. They listened carefully to our care instructions which reassured me. The house was clean & tidy when they left and we received daily updates. Would recommend them for pet sitting and would definitely use them again.”
“Scott went absolutely above and beyond to make sure my pets were well looked after. My dog has special needs, and I was so relieved by how thoughtfully and carefully Scott planned everything in advance. He followed the medication schedule perfectly, made sure my dog was comfortable at all times, and gave him the best care I could hope for. He also sent regular updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’m incredibly grateful and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter.”
“Desiree was quick to respond to my short notice for a weekend dogsitter. She arranged a meet and greet promptly and Willow took to her immediately. I can recommend Desiree with confidence.”

As always Sula was great with our pup again last week, Olive absolutely loves Sula and we’re all sad to say goodbye as Sula goes on to new adventures! Thanks for being awesome at playing with Olive and prioritising giving her water (even if she’s fussy) on hot days and being so kind to a highly energetic dog! Let us know when (if) you come back! 😊
Sula was amazing. She looked after my 2 dogs and the house, and I didn't worry about anything whilst on holiday. She sent me lots of lovely photos of them. I could see they were happy with her. She did everything I asked her to and more. She was so accommodating with her arrival and departure times and made me feel at ease. I would definitely use Sula again and highly recommend her.
Sula looked after our beagle boy for 5 days and was absolute magic, especially how we know how much mischief our pup can get up to!! Regular photo updates and regular written updates we honestly couldnt have imagined a better sitter. Bowie was treated like a king and we will not hesitate to book Sula again if she has the time. Thank you!

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