“Yvonne and David are so lovely, we felt from the meet & greet that our boys would be well looked after, and they definitely were! They dealt with Kenny's anxiety and Geoff's general grumpiness so well, we weren't ever worried about them. We also got great pics and videos, absolutely going to rebook.”

“Yasmin looked after my dog Luna during her very first stay away from home, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Luna was clearly well cared for, and I received regular “pupdates” that kept me smiling and really put me at ease, it was clear Luna was in safe, loving hands. I’m so grateful for the care she received—thank you, Yasmin!”

“Elanor was superb with Fyn she has a natural calmness with a sense of fun that Fyn picked up on straight away. He ran straight into her lovely home. Elanor took great care of Fyn followed his diet and sent me regular updates on Fyns adventures her and Mark who Fyn also loved. She is in a great location and Fyn had lots of walks and cuddles and was totally besotted with Elanor. When I went to collect him he was reluctant to come which is a sure sign he had a great time. She has had a massive positive effect on Fyn who, by nature responds better to a woman.”

“Teddy had a wonderful time with Csilla and her daughter, he is an anxious boy but he settled in strait away. Csilla sent pictures and a video of Teddy playing in the garden. Although he greeted me enthusiastically when I went to collect him he was very happy to stay !! I’ve already booked two more stays and I would recommend Csilla to others without a second thought. Thank you for looking after my little man so well and treating him like one of the family.”

“Charlotte was an amazing boarder for our frenchie Arlo! this was our first time ever using rover and Charlotte put us right at ease so we didn’t need to worry about a thing whilst we were getting married. It gave us a great peace of mind knowing he was being well looked after and was so happy during his stay! I can’t recommend enough, we had multiple messages and photos throughout Arlo’s stay and it was perfect! I’d recommend Charlotte to anyone who is considering a pet sitter!”

“We left our dog Rosie with Isla overnight for a trial run this week. She seemed to have an amazing time and they developed a bond very quickly. Isla kept me up to date with pictures and videos and even gave her extra walks! We will definitely make this a regular thing and would highly recommend Isla to any dog owners as a wonderful sitter providing a great piece of mind that your dog is very well cared for when thry stay with her.”

“Holly had a great time with Barbara. Barbara is super quick responding to messages, made it very easy for pick up an drop off and sent lots of photos of Holly having fun! I would highly recommend Barbara x”


“Great updates throughout the day. Some lovely pics. Our pup loved being there he had some great walks. Followed all the directions left, and he came back home happy as Larry! Will definitely book again”

“Anna and her family watched Ella for 3 nights, and Ella felt right at home straight away. We met up in advance ahead of the booking to make sure it was a good match, and Anna’s kind nature and her very well behaved little boy Marco made me feel right at ease. I knew Ella would have the best time there. And from the pictures shared I can tell she did :-) I have already booked in for next time!”

“Yuen was absolutely amazing in taking care of Eddie and always sending lots of photos of him. I would strongly recommend her services if you’re looking to leave your dog with someone.”


“Judith was amazing. At very short notice looked after Amber. Gave regular updates. Amber seemed to think it was her home from home. I think she had a great time. We will definitely be using Judith again.”

“Helen cared for our toy poodle for the wkend kept us up dated with photos at all times and he certainly enjoyed his stay with her , plenty exercise and trips to the beach , definitely 5 stars and definitely will continue to use Helen when stanley needs a sitter, such a lovely lady who adores our fur babies”

“Fantastic dogsitter! Kim is warm and looked after my older dog so well. She sends regular pics and updates and he is very relaxed in her lovely home. I recommend Kim highly as she is also an approved dogsitter with the local council.”

“Deborah was amazing! Kept us informed with videos and photos and how our dog was doing on a daily basis, from walks to eating! Even though our dog is anxious especially around new people, he warmed to her because of her calming energy. They were a perfect match. I would definitely recommend!”

“Paige and her partner Nathan took exceptional care of Suki during her stay. Both were incredibly friendly and warm, which immediately put me at ease. When I picked Suki up, she seemed happy and well looked after, which is always a great sign. Communication throughout was excellent, and I felt reassured that Suki was in great hands. I highly recommend Paige and Nathan to anyone looking for reliable and attentive pet sitters. Thank you both!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments through both owning dogs myself and regularly helping my mum with her pet sitting services at home. This includes feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, maintaining routines, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. I’m confident handling energetic dogs as well as those who may need a calmer, more patient approach. Being around animals daily has helped me develop a strong understanding of pet behaviour, responsibility, and the importance of providing loving, reliable care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I work part-time and am also a university student, which gives me a flexible schedule to dedicate to caring for pets. I already help care for dogs at home and assist my mum with her pet sitting services, so I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and settled. I can provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care when needed. Because caring for animals is already a regular part of my life, providing reliable, loving, and consistent pet care comes very naturally to me. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, whether they are in my home or in their owner’s home. I live in a university house with a shared garden space, and we are also very close to several parks and walking areas, which is perfect for regular walks, exercise, and outdoor time. I make sure pets stick to their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest, to help them feel settled and reduce stress. I provide lots of attention, patience, and supervision, and I always keep owners updated for peace of mind. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to ensure their pet feels secure in a familiar environment.
“Nicola looked after Charlie for two weeks and he was fit and well. He seemed to have enjoyed his stay. I would certainly recommend Nicola to look after anyone's pet. I will certainly ask her to look after Charlie again in the future.”


“Grace was wonderful with our new puppy and was very welcoming to our situation. Since he is only 11 weeks old and hasn’t had his second vaccination yet, we needed someone who could care for him on his own, without other dogs around. Grace gave us frequent updates and photos, which was very reassuring. Oscar seemed to love his stay so much that he almost didn’t want to leave! We would definitely recommend her.”

Newcastle upon Tyne pet owners share their Rover experiences
Nala had a trial one night boarding stay with Rebecca and her family. It was a great experience for my first time leaving Nala with someone else. She gave me regular updates with how Nala was and what was happening with pictures and videos! And also took great care of her special dietary needs. Her family and dog Douglas were all really kind and got along great! Looking forward to our next booking!

Jessica is a lovely, warm and friendly person and has an obvious love and enthusiam for dogs. Our dog Dexter had an overnight stay with Jessica when we visited Gateshead and he had a wonderful time, going for walks and making friends with Jessica's own dog. We had great communication before and during Dexter's stay. As we left Dexter was virtually hugging Jessica goodbye! I'm only sorry we live so far away as I would use Jessica on a regular basis and will do so if we visit the area again, I can't recommend her highly enough.

Louise gave me regular daily updates, and put my mind at ease as it was the first time I’d left my angel for a week. Louise also took her on little dog adventures and made sure she was well cared for in the hot weather. Easy to communicate with, and I could tell my little darling was safe and sound.

Milena was absolutely fantastic with Griffin, and put so much effort in to comfort him on his first night away from home. Fantastic communication with lots of photos and updates, and very accommodating and understanding of our last minute booking. Overall great experience thank you!

Anna was amazing with our boy. We've used Rover quite a few times and up until Anna not a single one of them hit the mark with his care. I do get anxious when leaving him and Anna really put me at ease, I had multiple updates throughout his time with her, which not only showed our dog was well taken care of but he was so relaxed and clearly having a good time! I would 100% recommend Anna, she is very caring, understanding, flexible and kind. Thank you Anna ❤️

Perfect as always! Arthur has had a great time and made a doggy friend who he is missing already! Michaela is great with his special diet and making sure he is walked first thing when it is this hot. She is great with giving updates, photos and making sure he is really well taken care of.

Would definitely recommend Kerry and her partner. Great communication we met before hand and I could instantly tell rascal would be taken great care of. Rascal hadn’t stayed overnight without a family member before so I was a bit anxious. Kerry kept me updated and I could see Rascal had an amazing time and was so well looked after. Would 1000000% go to Kerry if we need rascal looked after again. Would recommend her in an instant.

rollo had the best time as always with paige & nathen. i got the cutest photo updates of him having fun on his holidays 🐾 they both take such good care of him & you can tell he misses them when he gets home! i always feel fully at ease leaving my fur baby with these two 🥰
