8. Sophie T.
“Sophie has been in my lunas life for the last 8 years, right from the start. She even taught her 'paw' and 'sit' at only 9 weeks old. I only trust a handful of people with my fur baby, but Sophie would always be her number 1 favourite person to go to. Sophie always makes sure Luna gets the most attention when she's around and showers her with love, treats and affection more especially since having our real life baby She has been right there helping her adjust to a big life change. She has looked after Luna countless times in the last 8 years and I couldn't recommend someone more caring to have her.”

About: If you’re new to Rover, Use my promo code: KAYLEK45868 and get £15 off your first booking. It’s the perfect way to get started, and I’d love to meet your dog/cat soon! Hi! I’m Kayleigh, a passionate dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I originally signed up to Rover as a fun way to hang out with dogs in my spare time, but over the past few months, I realised working with animals is what I want to do full-time. Now, I’m pursuing a career dedicated to working with animals, and I’d love to spend more of my time hanging out with your doggo! I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life, so I’m experienced, confident, and comfortable handling a variety of temperaments. I have lots of experience with reactive, pully, and barky dogs and know how to help them feel calm and secure. I live in a medium sized, pet-friendly home with a garden and share it with a friend who’s also a vet nurse which is super handy for tips and reassurance! I also live near a huge park, perfect for dogs who need space or just want a peaceful walk. I’d love to meet your dog and give them all the care, attention, and fun they deserve! As I’m pursuing a career change, I currently have a lot of availability and free time to fully commit to looking after your pets - wether it’s a one off booking or a weekly basis! Caring for pets in my home comes with added benefits, such as a secure garden for them to play and explore safely. I also have a separate, quiet room where pets can retreat if they’re feeling anxious or nervous, ensuring they have a peaceful space to relax. Whether they need outdoor activity or a calming environment, I provide a balanced, comfortable setting tailored to their needs. When caring for pets in their owner’s home, I follow their usual routine to keep them feeling secure and at ease.
