“Second booking with Maria, outstanding as always. Excellent communication, daily updates, pictures and videos! My cat clearly adores her and it shows through the videos she sends! I highly recommend Maria, she is my go-to cat sitter!”

“Ana is fantastic! My cat Izzy never comes down the stairs to anyone she doesn't know but Ana is the exception. I don't think my cats were happy that it was us that walked through the door instead of Ana when we got back. Highly recommend”

“We have been using Aimee for a couple of weeks now, and she’s been nothing short of amazing with our two little babies! Keeps us updated with pics and gives us a little message on how their day went. Very thorough with what dates she can do, and lets us know well in advance days she can’t do. Thank you so much Aimee for looking after our little ones.”

“Ieva was fantastic from first meeting, she didn't force herself on the cats. Really asked all about them and their habits and likes/dislikes so when she came to visit she could spend the time doing exactly what they liked. Would 100% recommend and rebook.”

“Ying-ying did an amazing job caring for our cats while we were away. She was attentive and reliable. We came home to happy, relaxed cats. Highly recommend! We will be booking her again!”


About: I’m a qualified veterinarian from Newport with a degree in Veterinary Medicine and a lifelong love for animals. I provide reliable, caring pet sitting and dog walking, giving every pet plenty of attention, affection, and safe care. I’m also very active and enjoy exercise, so I love taking dogs on long, fun walks tailored to their energy and needs. I am currently waiting to start a new job in September and therefore am free full time to take care of your pets, drop me a text for more info. Able to care for pets at your home or provide walking services. I will consider sitting for pets at my own home also, I have a fenced garden which is secure and have no other pets at home.
“My cat Isaac loves Mel, I can’t thank her enough for the great care of him whilst we were away. Big thank you most definitely would recommend Mel she’s excellent so caring thoughtful and reliable thank you xxx”

“Claudia was lovely l. She answered any questions I had and replied quickly to my messages. She sent regular photos and updates when visiting. My cat loved her. I would definitely use her again and would recommend. Thanks Claudia !”

“Our cat sitter was lovely with my three cats—Thor, Athena, and Luna. Thor warmed up to her straight away, and she was so gentle and patient with the others too. You can really tell she loves animals and takes her time to make them feel safe. I feel so confident leaving them in her care. Highly recommend!”

“Hannah made us feel so reassured our cat was safe and in good hands a followed our fussy food instructions perfectly. Our cat is normally timid around new people but took a liking to Hannah straight away and we know this because she only ‘boops’ strangers hands with her nose for scritches when she likes and trusts you. Hannah kept us updated with photos and videos and we could tell from our cats behaviour she was happy to see Hannah. We would highly recommend Hannah and will continue to book her in future.”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old and have always known how much I loved animals, which is why I’m now a registered veterinary nurse. I treat every animal as if they are my own and I know the stress and worry it can cause having someone else looking after your pets, so I’m here to make that experience much easier. I have experience with training young and old pets and my qualification has solidified that even more. I also have experience and knowledge when it comes to caring for older pets or those with more complex needs. I work 4 days a week and have Saturday-Mondays off so will be able to longer visits/walks on these days. I can also pop in for a visit in the morning before and evenings after work. Whether I’m looking after your pet(s) in my own home or yours, they will be treated like my own with nothing but love and comfort.
About: I’ve had both cats and dogs since the age of 7, I’ve always been an animal lover. I regularly take care of relatives and friends pets and have been trusted to do so from about the age of 10. I am so happy to have discovered this app, nothing makes me happier than spending time with animals and being out in nature, I find it very beneficial for my mental health. I currently have a very free and flexible schedule since finishing uni, so plenty of time to play, walk and take care of some doggos! I’ve had experience with all different breeds and sized dogs. I consider my dogs to be members of my family, so I would always treat other people’s pets as I would my own and shower them with love and attention.
About: I’ve looked after many dogs for friends and family, including my parents’ German Shepherd, working Cocker Spaniel, and Jack Russell. I have experience with both small and large breeds and enjoy adapting to each dog’s needs — from energetic playtime to gentle care for older pups. I can’t have my own dog at the moment because I sometimes travel for work, so caring for other people’s pets is something I genuinely love and take seriously. I work Monday to Friday so my main availability is evenings and weekends. This depends on the week though. Sometimes I may be available. On weekends I can take dogs on longer more interesting walks! I live right next to Glebelands Park in Newport, which is my go-to spot for daily walks — I usually take dogs there in the morning and evening. There’s also Turner Street Park nearby, plus a large grassy area right outside my flat for quick playtime or bathroom breaks. My car has a spacious boot, so on weekends I love taking dogs on longer, more exciting adventures to different parks and trails.
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, spending most of my childhood with my best friend and her dogs. I've done walking for friends, family, house pet sitting for colleagues, including feeding, playing, walking with lots of cute photos! I'm currently working part time so am able to be more flexible with bookings, choosing which days I would like to work. On working days I finish at 3:30 so will still be available every afternoon and evening. I do not have a crate however have lots of toys. I live on the waterfront so lots of fresh air and scenery for walks and movement breaks:)
About: Me and my partner have always been huge animal lovers, and we’ve got plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets every single day. We’re lucky to have a much-loved member of our family, Buddy, who is very friendly and playful, and we’ve both grown up with animals around us, so we’re very comfortable caring for pets and understanding their different personalities and needs. We treat every pet as if they’re our own, making sure they get lots of walks, playtime, cuddles, and reassurance. We know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, so our goal is always to make sure your pet feels happy, loved, and settled — and that you can enjoy complete peace of mind while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally and easily into my daily routine, and me and my partner are around throughout the day. This means I can offer constant companionship, which is especially comforting for nervous pets who don’t like being left alone. Being home most of the time also allows for regular toilet breaks, flexible feeding times, and walks whenever your dog needs them — whether that’s early mornings, midday strolls, or extra outings for dogs who need a little more support. Our routine is very adaptable, so we’re more than happy to follow your dog’s usual schedule and any special requests. Your dog will never be left alone and will always have plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Buddy is also at home, providing friendly company and helping visiting dogs feel more settled and at ease. This flexibility allows us to focus fully on your dog’s comfort, happiness, and wellbeing, helping them feel relaxed, cared for, and right at home during their stay. We live in a three-bedroom house with plenty of space for dogs to relax, play, and feel at home. We also have a lovely, fully fenced garden, so dogs can safely enjoy time outside, have a run around, or just potter about in the fresh air. Inside, our home is very relaxed and dog-friendly. Pets are treated as part of the family and are welcome to be wherever we are — on the sofa, in the bedroom, or curled up nearby. We don’t have any “off-limits” areas, and we want every dog to feel comfortable and settled from the moment they arrive. Our aim is to create a calm, safe, home-from-home environment where your dog can truly relax and enjoy their stay.
Newport cat owners share their Rover experiences
After our previous pet minding arrangement had fallen through, Anna was luckily available at short notice. We hadn’t used this kind of service before but we instantly felt at ease, Anna is very sweet and friendly and took time to get to know our 12 year old cat, Simmy. We got regular updates and pictures and felt so much more comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We would definitely book with Ana again! Thank you so much Ana! :)

Thank you so much to Krisztina for taking such wonderful care of my little cat, Elaf. She kept me updated after every visit with photos and messages about how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Elaf was clearly comfortable and well looked after. I will definitely be using your services again — thank you!
