“Again Ching works her magic, she is just perfect. When picking up my fur baby is just so obvious that she's had a wonderful time and is reluctant to leave her best friends Zima and Muffin. The affection that Skye shows towards Ching tells me everything I need to know, and that is that Ching is one in a million 🤩”
“David was great with my dog. Has a great set up for dogs to roam in garden and explore. My dog is a bit timid but didn’t take long for her to warm up to David and his wee dog and came home happy and relaxed. Will be back!”

My background includes caring for a wide range of pets—from dogs and cats to parrots and geckos—as well as experience rooted in a family farming environment, which has deepened my understanding of animal behavior and welfare. I am confident handling large dog breeds such as Great Danes, Rottweilers, and Bullmastiffs, and I ensure every pet in my care receives not only proper supervision but also plenty of affection, attention, and comfort. I also have extensive experience with cats of all breeds and temperaments, including Sphynx, Ragdolls, and Maine Coons.

I remain on the DBS register. I have an inclosed garden and I live near the country .Great place for long walks. I am not very tech savvy but can take pictures and video to send often.i have one fur baby called Arya,she is 6 years old. When I moved from the USA to Scotland she came as well. I follow pet owners instructions on how they want their pet looked after. Arya sleeps with me ,she gets up early with me on a morning. I let her out to potty,then she has her breakfast. After I have my breakfast we go for a walk. 45 minutes to an hour at least once a day She follows me around my home. She gets lots of cuddles and attention thru out the day. She has pet insurance and gets regular health check ups She is also crate trained.
“So happy we found Claire on Rover. She was so gentle and kind with Bea who can be a bit skittish, particularly in unfamiliar situations. Wouldn't hesitate to use her again though almost afraid to recommend her as we will always want her for ourselves 😄”
About: I have always loved dogs. I use to have 2 american bulldogs when i was a child. And now im older i have a springer spaniel and greatdane. My house is near lots of fields In neilston and I work term time so I am off for 4 months of the year. I do boarding, drop dogs here and there as i have a car. I can provide a walking service and do can also check up on dogs in peoples houses. I work as a nurse 6 months of the year and have a lot of free time. I love to walk and I love dogs. I have a fenced garden but I have fields upon fields next to me which I go to. I let the dogs go on beds and sofas so they will feel at home.
About: I work for myself so am based at home during the week. I definitely need the walk/company as much as the animals! I have worked in multiple animal/dog/cat sanctuaries taking care of dogs ranging from puppies to old souls. I’ve always had dogs in the house and dog sitting for friends whenever they need me. I work for myself from home Mon - Fri so I need the company/walks just as mischievous as the animals! I set my own work hours so can be flexible to suit what ever needs to happen. I live alone in a spacious flat, we do have stairs to access the house so let me know if your dog is a little achey and needs assistance with stairs. How I look after pet in your home would be a discussion we would have prior so you felt comfortable

Ching and her husband are great sitters. You can tell they love dogs and are passionate about what they do. My little dachshund is only 7 months old so was a bit apprehensive about leaving him. He cannot wait to get inside when wee arrive at the house and is honestly so happy there. Thanks guys ❤️
Ching and her husband took wonderful care of my dog Milo today. They are both incredibly friendly, kind, and clearly love dogs. Milo was well looked after and very happy, which gave me real peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter
Hi, it's Skye here, I wanted to leave a review instead of my daddy this week. I get so excited in the car when I know I'm on my way to see Ching and my besties Zima & Muffin. We have such fun all day long. I love my daddy very much but Ching, Zima, Muffin and Kevin have become my bestest friends 🐾

There are 693 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in North Ayrshire. About 89% of North Ayrshire sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later collection to match your North Ayrshire commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust collection and drop-off times when needed.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's lead and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalised care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog's vaccines is the best way to be 'boarding ready'. Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Sitters in Scotland may request that your dog be up-to-date on core vaccines, such as Canine Distemper, Canine Parvovirus, Canine Adenovirus (also known as DHP or DHPPi), Leptospirosis and Kennel Cough. Cats may be required to have Feline Panleucopenia Virus, Feline Herpesvirus, Feline Calicivirus, and Feline Leukaemia Virus up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
We require sitters to operate in compliance with applicable local licensing requirements. In England, pet sitters who board dogs or provide doggy day care as a business may need a valid licence under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) Regulations 2018. When vetting your sitter, ask if they meet local licensing requirements for dog boarding. This confirmation is important for coverage under the Rover Guarantee.
