“Lauren has looked after our two staffies twice now and we couldn’t happier with the level of care. She’s brilliant at sending regular updates and great at wrangling our big bundles of energy. We can tell how much our girls love staying because this time when we dropped them off they ran to the front door!”

“Rachel was absolutely fantastic! Our boy Pablo was well cared for and loved his stay with rachel Mabel and family. He spent 4 nights whilst we were away and Rachel kept me updated throughout each day with pictures and messages she really put our minds at ease about leaving him. I couldn't recommend her enough ! X”


“Our Clive was sad to leave! He had the best time and I felt really at ease meeting beforehand for our first rover experience. Clive needs a lot of training and hands on as he’s currently in adolescence and can be very mischievous but Jessica was brilliant with him. Regular updates were really helpful to keep my mind at ease during the stay. Thank you both so much ♥️”

“Louise and Dean looked after my dog Tukka so well, and took her on such great walks that she didn't want to leave! Tukka stayed overnight and enjoyed cuddles on the sofa and snuggling up in bed. It is obvious that Louise and Dean absolutely love dogs - and with Tukka the feeling was definitely mutual. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Louise again or recommend her to others.”


“Rebecca was fantastic and bruno really enjoyed his stay with her family and making friends with her dog Douglas. Rebecca kept myself and my partner updated during bruno's stay with plenty of pictures and messages to re assure us he was safe and loving his life. Bruno will definitely be returning ☺️”

“You couldn't wish for a better couple to look after your dog! From placing the initial enquiry we immediately felt at ease knowing he was going to be cared for whilst we were on holiday. Whilst we were away we received photos on the daily of the fun Woody and their dog Odie had been getting up to and we could see just how much fun Woody was having with them, allowing us to relax and enjoy our break. I would 110% recommend Demi and will absolutely look to them again in the future!”

“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”

“Once again, we were delighted to be able to leave Jack in Andrew's capable hands. The pair of them had a great time, and we got lots of photos and regular updates. Andrew takes time to understand dogs' quirks & foibles (very important for Jack - he's got a few...!!!), and builds his plan accordingly. He made sure we were comfortable with what he was proposing to do over the weekend, which was very reassuring. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andrew, and we'll be booking Jack in again soon!”

“Joshuah took great care of Kobbie! He was very welcoming and handled Kobbie’s high energy well. He took him out for a walk even when the weather was rubbish and sent updates/pics throughout the weekend. Would definitely recommend :)”

We went away for a week and Sarah kept us up to date with daily photos and messages which showed bella having a great time . Friendly and helpful throughout Sarah let Bella have the run of the house and looked after her brilliantly. We will definitely use Sarah again and some of our friends have already made inquiries about they dogs. Many , many thanks to Sarah for a professional and smooth weeks stay .”

Adele was just amazing, putting my mind at ease. Ollie had an amazing time. Very professional and lovely lady. Will definitely book again with Adele. Highly recommended.”

“I had to organise a day trip to London for work at short notice, and I was unable to find someone to look after my dog overnight and during the day in the whole of Newcastle.

“This was my first time using Rover and Amy was brilliant. She came over the weekend I went away to meet the cats, go through their routine and where everything was etc, and I got regular messages/photo updates throughout the week to let me know how the cats were doing. Both cats are rescues and get nervous around people so I was over the moon when she said they had come out whilst she was there as it showed they were comfortable in her presence. I would recommend Amy and use her services again in future.”


“I cannot recommend Louise enough she looked after both of my cats for 2 nights she kept me updated with photos and how they were doing throughout the day. I was able to go away and know my cats were in good care with Louise. The house was clean and tidy coming back home and she even emptied the bin before leaving. ”


“Maya was an incredible cat sitter. She took the time to meet both cats beforehand, which really put us at ease. During our time away, she shared photos from every visit, and it was clear they were very well looked after and happy. Highly recommend her!”


“Oscar looked after my two cats (18 months and 6 months old) whilst i was away on holiday dropping in twice a day. He followed instructions perfectly and wasn’t phased by one of them being a little litter tray sensitive. He updated me with pictures and videos which gave peace of mind and both of my babies were in great spirits when I returned. Would absolutely book again!”


“Amela is very reliable and gives great updates on my cat when I am away. Also has lots of common sense, when something didn't work the way she expected it to she immediately contacted me. I have no reservations to recommend her on her reliability and common sense attitude.”


About: I have my own cat call Leo! Through this, I am used to taking care of cats. I have taken care of friends cats with various temperaments and needs. Such as specific diets, routines or medicine administration. I am aware of the importance of proper stimulation and play, if appropriate.

“Tasha was great with our cats having so much experience with her own we felt like our two would be right at home with her and we were right :) It was a last minute booking we needed but she made time to visit us the day before to meet our cats and go over their needs (as fitz especially is a weird one and bee hasn’t been dealing with the heat too well) She sent the most photos we’ve ever gotten from a cat sitter which really put our minds at ease. Thank you so much!”


“Fiona is absolutely lovely, friendly and open while remaining entirely professional and trustworthy, and she kept my cat happy and cared for when I went away for a few days. She made sure I could always feel completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. I will definitely use her service again in the future!”


About: Up until 7 years ago when I got my first dog Bella, I always had cats from a very young age. Me and my mam rescued a cat who I named Missy who we then later found out was pregnant. I loved looking after the kittens and making sure they went to a loving home. I kept one kitten who I named Sox.

“We have been using Julie to look after our cat for many years now. She is very reliable and will go out of her way to accommodate us if we have a last minute trip. Thank you!”


About: I’ve grown up with cats and have always appreciated their unique personalities, independence and ways of communicating. I currently share my home with two cats, which has deepened my understanding of how important patience, routine and trust are when caring for them. Every cat has their own preferences — some love attention and play, while others need quiet companionship and time to feel comfortable. I pay attention to the little things that matter to cats: their routines, body language, favourite spots, feeding habits and individual quirks. My aim is always to create a calm, safe environment where cats feel respected and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your cat needs a friendly visit, feeding, playtime, or simply someone to provide company and reassurance, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.

“We had a really positive experience with Alannah. She followed all the instructions carefully and was incredibly helpful and kind throughout. It was clear that she genuinely cared and took great care of our cat, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Overall, a fantastic sitter—we would definitely book with Alannah again and highly recommend her to others!”


“Lydia was so great at communicating and sending photos and also went the extra mile to do us a favour while we were away and pick up a parcel that had been delivered. We were super grateful, thank you! ”

“Anna was super nice, really good at communicating. We got several pictures every day. Which was definitely reassuring. I can tell Blue really liked Anna. She also checked on our other cat that was hiding under the bed during every visit to make sure she was OK which was much appreciated. I couldn't recommend Anna enough :) ”


“Wonderful care. I am very satisfied. Already during the introductory visit I got a very positive impression and noticed that she understands the needs of the pet as well as ours. The reports and photos I received reassured me of this. When we came back, our cat was happy 🐱 I can definitely recommend her and I will happily make use of her services in the future again :)”

About: I have been pet sitting for almost 2 years and it has been something I fall in love with every day. I care with all the love and affection and meet each pet’s needs. I have plenty of time with your puppies. I’m just managing my kids school time which takes about 30 minutes for dropping them off and pick them up but if you dog can’t be left alone I can definitely take it with me without any problem. I have a fenced big garden so your puppy will be very safe here with a big place to play. They are allowed to go to my bed if they feel safer in that way.
About: I always have dogs in my house, my own, and from family, friends or neighbors who would leave them with me anytime needed. I'm very used to walking dogs and taking great care of them! I'm currently a stay-at-home mom, so I can take the dogs for a walk, play in the yard, and keep them happy and safe all day long. I have a fenced yard and an old fury baby - Lilica (14 years old, but very active). I also can easily keep the dogs apart if needed.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a great experience with Lynn. She was reliable, caring, and kept our dog happy while we were away. Communication was easy, and we felt confident knowing our pup was in good hands. Would definitely recommend!”
“Bailey really settled in great with Josh. She got taken out for walks and got plenty zoomies in, being a whippet this is her favorite pastime. I would not hesitate to book Josh again very reliable.”

“Dylan stays with Alla once or twice a week and really enjoys his time there. Alla is very patient and understanding as he is an elderly dog with some health concerns and even helps with medication. I often have to carry Dylan out when I collect him now as he just loves being there. 😅 would recommend!”


“Can't thank Lauren enough, very thorough and clearly loves dogs. Met prior to go through any questions and to meet Fable, she asked all the right questions and made sure I was aware of the plans regarding walks (where, when on lead/long line). Her home is clean, tidy and smelled amazing. She put me at ease about leaving my pup. Updates/photos were sent throughout the day. Will definitely be booking again, and would 100% recommend! 🐾”

About: I’ve grown up my whole life with pets. Whether it be my own or a family member’s pet. I understand what each pet needs, depending if it’s a walk, play time or just a chill. Wednesdays and Sundays I’m free all day. Im home from 3pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Saturdays at the moment I am working all day. I’m reliable, patient and genuinely love giving pets the attention they need to feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I’m very active, so dogs get proper exercise, stimulating walks and plenty of playtime. I take pride in keeping routines consistent — feeding, toilet breaks, training cues and calm downtime. I’m confident with energetic dogs, puppies who need structure, and seniors who need a gentler pace. I’ll send regular updates so you always know your pet is happy and settled. Your pet gets the perfect mix of care, affection and activity — as if they were my own.
About: I’m currently training at college to be a dog groomer so I have a good experience with different kind of dogs and I have been learning a lot about dog health I’m currently working part time, generally over the weekends. I’m really trying to grow my rover career so hopefully I can just work from this! I love dogs and find them very interesting so I am happy to take care of any of your pets needs from brushing, walks, feeding and cuddles of course

“Hannah looked after my 11-week-old puppy for two days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. As it was my first time leaving such a young puppy with a dog sitter, I was a bit anxious, but Hannah put me completely at ease from the moment we met. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos. It was clear that my puppy was well cared for and in safe hands the entire time. I’ve already booked with her again for a few weeks time, I would recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Diane looked after our 2 dogs whilst we went for a family meal. Our 2 girls met their dog Niko and got on extremely well, even Rose, who is still coming out of her shell. We are very happy, dogs seem very happy, so we're very happy to recommend. Many thanks ✨”

“I needed a puppy sitter for my nine-week-old puppy at very short notice due to a family bereavement. Day care wasn't something I had planned, so I was understandably anxious about leaving such a young puppy in someone else's care. From the very beginning, Sima and Christina have been fantastic. The booking process was quick, easy, and stress-free at a time when I had a lot on my mind. They kept me updated throughout the day with plenty of photos, videos, and messages, which gave me real peace of mind and reassured me that I had made the right decision. What has impressed me most is how genuinely invested they are in my puppy's wellbeing and development. They dont just supervise him—they actively support his training, reinforced good habits, and have taken a real interest in his progress. It was clear that they care for him as an individual and wanted him to thrive. I have a happy, well-cared-for puppy returned, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend Sima and Christina to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional puppy care. Thank you both for your kindness, support, and dedication.”


About: Ive always loved dogs, had dogs since I was 11, two Bernese mountain dogs both lasting to 11+ years. I now have my own greyhound called Tess who is brilliant with other dogs, gentle and playful. I love to run (the greyhound ironically doesn't share this passion), and I love being outdoors no matter the weather. I am happy to take on group walks with my dog to get them socialized and playing together and she will ensure your dog gets tired out and a good run around and lots of play and care. I work three days a week in a&e. The rest of my time I do lots of walking and running. I love to be outdoors whatever the weather. I have a 3 year old rescue greyhound called Tess.

I’m reliable, friendly and understand how important it is to keep pets happy, safe and comfortable while you’re away. I work Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm, with some days working from home, which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits and pet care.

Available Monday to Sunday every week, I have two cats at home which get along with other animals and could be two potential new friends to your pet.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and the bond I had with my own dogs shaped everything about who I am today. They taught me patience, empathy, and how to understand animals who communicate more through feeling than words. Losing them was hard, but the impact they had on me is why I now pour my heart into pet sitting and dog walking. I specialise in supporting nervous, shy, and big‑feeling dogs who need someone steady, gentle, and predictable. I walk at a relaxed pace that helps dogs settle, sniff, decompress, and feel safe. I follow each dog’s routine closely — same walking routes, same cues, same pace — because consistency builds trust. I’m soft‑spoken, reliable, and fully present with every dog I care for. Caring for animals feels natural to me — like something I was always meant to do.

About: Hi! I’m Chelsea 😊 I’ve owned multiple dogs at the same time for the majority of my life. Everything from chihuahuas to staffs. I absolutely love dogs, they’re my favourite humans (yes you read that right) I’m currently first aid and cpr trained so comfortable walking high energy, likely to get in a pickle dogs, puppies and elderly dogs needing extra care and attention. I’m more than happy to adapt to every dogs needs and demands to make their walk perfect for them. I am currently upgrading my skills with a level 3 award in canine care, behavior and welfare (ofqual standard) at the minute before I begin boarding and dog sitting from my home. I am the ever proud owner of my elderly chihuahua, Lexi who I love very much. She is one of my children. I’m used to walking 20k plus steps a day and love a good hike so am more than happy to provide bigger more strenuous walks for the high energy pups. I work part time, three days a week but finish on those days at 2pm so can still offer walks on those days too after that time I’m currently working part time leaving most of my week free for all your walking and dog sitting needs!

“Caitlyn was a massive help in walking bella dog for me today and was very accommodating when almost last minute I had to ask for an extra walk than the two planned. Highly recommended by Bella and me.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals, including dogs, cats and other pets, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines and little quirks. Whether it’s a playful dog who needs plenty of enrichment, a nervous pet who needs patience and reassurance, or a cat who prefers calm and consistency, I take the time to understand what makes each animal feel comfortable and safe. I’m attentive to the small details — changes in behaviour, body language, preferences and routines — because I believe great pet care is about more than the basics. It’s about creating trust and making sure your pet feels happy and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to welcome your dog or cat into a calm, caring environment where they receive the attention and respect they deserve. I work from home, which allows me to build pet care naturally into my daily routine and provide regular attention throughout the day. My days already include structure, including daily walks and time dedicated to being active and outdoors, so caring for a pet fits naturally alongside my existing routine. I enjoy creating a calm and consistent environment where pets can feel comfortable and settled. When caring for pets alongside my own cats, I prioritise their comfort and safety. I would provide separate spaces where needed, allowing each pet to have their own area, routine and time to relax. For example, visiting cats would have their own dedicated space while they settle in, with individual time spent with them throughout the day, while my own cats have their familiar areas. For dogs, I would take a similar approach by managing introductions carefully and making sure each pet has the space and attention they need. I believe pets are happiest when they feel secure, respected and able to adjust at their own pace. My goal is to make pet care feel like a natural part of my day while ensuring every animal receives personalised attention, routine and companionship. My priority is creating a safe, calm and comfortable environment where every pet feels secure. My home has a fully fenced garden, providing a safe outdoor space for pets to enjoy fresh air and supervised time outside. I always prioritise safety, including being mindful of each pet’s behaviour, needs and comfort levels. As I have my own cats, I take introductions and boundaries seriously. I would provide separate spaces where needed, allowing each pet time to settle and feel secure in their own environment. Any interactions between pets would always be carefully considered, gradual and supervised, based on the individual temperament of each animal. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, respected and understood. By maintaining clear routines, providing individual attention and adapting care to each animal’s personality, I aim to create a positive and stress-free experience while they are in my care.

About: I have taken care of my own dogs since was able to walk, I take my own dogs into daily and always love the company. Walking is my safe space and dogs are too which is why this job is so well fitted for me I look after my own dogs daily so it’s routine for me. Normally I go to gym early then walk the dogs before lunch and at tea time. I leave close to the sea so a beach trip is manditory! I have a fenced garden with one friendly cocker spaniel at home, she loves running and especially the. beach and playing on a field, I’m always happy to bring her along with me!

I treat every dog as if they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care at all times I am not working at the moment as I would genuinely love to focus on Animal care because I love working with them more than anything I don’t offer this service unfortunately as I am currently living with my partner and the flat isn’t big enough to hold any animals sorry
About: I have helped friends out with their dog walking, dog sitting and would really love to meet some new pups and get out more. I have dog sat for a few times over the weekends with small and large dogs to making sure to follow meal times and plans and any other requirements needed for the pup, also taking them to the beach and not just to a field close by. I have also got my level 1 animal care certificate and diploma, my level 2 animal care/management extended certificate, and I am also qualified as a level 2 dog groomer and will be completing my level 3 in September. I’m currently working at a doggy daycare during the week but would still love to meet all your lovely fur babies and give them all the playtime and walks they would want I’m completely flexible on weekends and can be during the week on selected days. If your fur babies where to come to where I live for a while my back and front gardens are completely fenced in the back has 6 foot fences and the gate can be locked the front garden fences are shorter but is still safe. Your animals will be completely safe and well looked after with me with much love and playtime.

“Anna took care of Koko for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She kept us up to date throughout, sending daily videos and pictures that really put our minds at ease. It was clear Koko was well looked after and happy in her care. We would highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.”


“Lauren has looked after our two staffies twice now and we couldn’t happier with the level of care. She’s brilliant at sending regular updates and great at wrangling our big bundles of energy. We can tell how much our girls love staying because this time when we dropped them off they ran to the front door!”

“Rachel was absolutely fantastic! Our boy Pablo was well cared for and loved his stay with rachel Mabel and family. He spent 4 nights whilst we were away and Rachel kept me updated throughout each day with pictures and messages she really put our minds at ease about leaving him. I couldn't recommend her enough ! X”


“Our Clive was sad to leave! He had the best time and I felt really at ease meeting beforehand for our first rover experience. Clive needs a lot of training and hands on as he’s currently in adolescence and can be very mischievous but Jessica was brilliant with him. Regular updates were really helpful to keep my mind at ease during the stay. Thank you both so much ♥️”


“Rebecca was fantastic and bruno really enjoyed his stay with her family and making friends with her dog Douglas. Rebecca kept myself and my partner updated during bruno's stay with plenty of pictures and messages to re assure us he was safe and loving his life. Bruno will definitely be returning ☺️”

“You couldn't wish for a better couple to look after your dog! From placing the initial enquiry we immediately felt at ease knowing he was going to be cared for whilst we were on holiday. Whilst we were away we received photos on the daily of the fun Woody and their dog Odie had been getting up to and we could see just how much fun Woody was having with them, allowing us to relax and enjoy our break. I would 110% recommend Demi and will absolutely look to them again in the future!”

“Couldn’t ask for any better for Milo - spoilt from the moment I got there to picking him up. It was my first time using the app but Naoise provided updates constantly with photos as well. Thank you so much!!”


“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”

“Once again, we were delighted to be able to leave Jack in Andrew's capable hands. The pair of them had a great time, and we got lots of photos and regular updates. Andrew takes time to understand dogs' quirks & foibles (very important for Jack - he's got a few...!!!), and builds his plan accordingly. He made sure we were comfortable with what he was proposing to do over the weekend, which was very reassuring. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andrew, and we'll be booking Jack in again soon!”

“Bella loved her stay with Sarah, in so much she's seems a bit down not to still be with her. We went away for a week and Sarah kept us up to date with daily photos and messages which showed bella having a great time . Friendly and helpful throughout Sarah let Bella have the run of the house and looked after her brilliantly. We will definitely use Sarah again and some of our friends have already made inquiries about they dogs. Many , many thanks to Sarah for a professional and smooth weeks stay .”

“Emily is a lovely person who looked after my precious Westie recently . She provided me with lots of updates which is important to me and photos of Koura enjoying herself on walks on the beach as well as looking very chilled and comfy in Emily’s home . I would highly recommend Emily and will use her again when I’m in the area .”

“Lauren was very accommodating especially with my loose timeframes which was very helpful and very much appreciated! Ralphy had a good stay and got to interact with another dog which definitely helped his own anxiety of being left! Lauren helped my own anxiety by sending updates over text and was super nice throughout! Would hugely recommend to everyone 😁”

“Whiskey was well looked after by Dianne. She sent regular pictures of whiskey which eased my anxiety about leaving him. It allowed me to fully enjoy my holiday. Definitely use her again”

About: I grew up with Dobermans and at one point we had three in the house. I love dogs and regularly look after my friends pets both sitting and walking. Had experience of dog training, both small and bigs breads, from a border terrier to a German shepherd. Happy to go on adventurous walks, or a walk round the block and open my home up for sitting too. I work full time but have every other Friday off and can work flexibly from home for 2 days a week. I am more available at weekends however can adjust my work from home days to sit around the weekend for longer sitting opportunities. Dog walking can be before work, after work or during a lunch time on a WFH day and weekends any time. I have no pets of my own just yet. I have a garden at my home, 3 bed house with plenty of space and space downstairs for dog beds, crates or whatever is required. I am super respectful and will always follow the dog owners wishes for caring for their dog.
“Queli and her family welcomed Max and Millie into their home and took excellent care of them. We received regular updates and photos so we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying about anything at all. We will definitely rebook again and recommend to others, thanks to you all x”

“Samruddhi was great! we had to book a sitter for Rufus quite last minute and Samruddhi was more than happy to take Rufus. He can be a bit of a particular dog but she seemed to manage him well and he came home happy :) will definitely use Samruddhi in the future!”

“We booked Zofia to look after our senior dog, and the experience was excellent. Communication was consistent, updates were detailed, and Millie was clearly relaxed and very well cared for. Everything was fantastic, and we felt confident throughout the stay. I’d happily book again and highly recommend. Thank you..”
“Absolutely brilliant. Cannot fault him at all. Was worried about leaving my dog as he’s not stayed with anyone but family before. I had nothing to worry about, Matthew was brilliant with him. Lots of updates to keep me from worrying. Ralfie enjoyed his holiday at Matthew’s house.”
