Sophie is absolutely lovely. She kept me updated on how Biscuit was, which was so reassuring. She remembered everything I asked of her, even though we met a few weeks before I went away. Biscuit was her normal happy self when I got home, not out of sorts at all and clearly well looked after. Sophie even wash up the mug I had left in the sink and not a cat hair in sight, so she must have swept the floors too, which she didn’t have to do, but it was such a lovely touch to come home to. Will definitely call on Sophie to help me again in the future. She’s great!

We had a great experience with Cheryl who looked after our two cats Higgs and Nala for the first time. We felt very safe leaving them in her hands, and appreciated the regular updates and photos. We definitely recommend and will book again! Thanks 😊

Holly is wonderful. Never have I seen my Poppy dog settle so quickly into somebody’s company. Holly is patient and kind with the dogs she take cares of and my fussy girl clearly feels very safe and happy in her care ❤️

Very professional. Sent lots of nice photos and videos and kept me informed throughout the day. Took the weather and time alone for Sandy into consideration. He was super calm and happy when I returned.

About: I have extensive experience handling, walking and often training dogs. I've worked with dogs full time in the past, and also volunteered with dogs in my spare time. I can handle dogs of all sizes, breeds and perspnalities, please don't hesitate to contact. I am working full time in emergency services, so my schedule is not regular. I use my spare time during the week and weekends to walk dogs, soemthing which I am passionate about and never get bored of! I am employed full time in emergency services. So my schedule is not a normal 9-5. I have days off during the week and sometimes weekend. Feel free to give me a message and I will inform you if I am available or not. I have a fenced medium sized garden. I have a house with plenty of space. There are also various green / forested areas nearby where we can walk.

About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for a variety of breeds, including Beagles, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Cocker Spaniels, German Shepherds, border collies and Labradors. Through owning and walking dogs, I've learned how to read canine body language, respect boundaries, and handle dogs calmly and confidently on walks. I also have experience preventing leash pulling and helping dogs stay focused and comfortable during walks. In addition to my hands-on experience, I've spent years learning about dog behaviour and training techniques through educational resources and dog rehabilitation programs. For the past two years, I've been the primary caregiver for my indoor domestic shorthair cat, who is now five years old. I handle all aspects of their daily care, including feeding, playtime, grooming, monitoring their wellbeing, and ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I always aim to provide patient, attentive, and loving care. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. As pet care is my main focus, I can accommodate a variety of walking, drop-in, and sitting requests. The only regular commitment I have is caring for my own cat in the evening, so I am available for most daytime and afternoon bookings. I will always communicate clearly about my availability and ensure pets receive reliable, attentive care. Your pet's safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. Having grown up with dogs and currently being the primary caregiver for my cat, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and respecting each animal's individual personality and boundaries. I pay close attention to body language and behaviour to help pets feel comfortable and secure in my care. During walks, I ensure dogs remain safely leashed unless instructed otherwise in a secure, appropriate area. For home visits and pet sitting, I follow owners' instructions carefully regarding feeding, exercise, medication, and routines. I believe in providing a calm, positive environment where pets can feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away.

I spend everyday with my own animals and from 29th May 2026 I’ll be around to help Monday-Sunday!

About: I have grown up with pets my whole life, from hamsters to cats, and more recently I grew up with two lovely black labradors - Charley and Flo. Flo is still bouncing around at the age of 12 and does come for a sleepover now and then, but I do miss having dogs around so am keen to share my love for animals with others. Whether its a walk around the block or staying over I would love to help out. I fit my schedule around what is best for your dog as I know many have their preferred routine. Whether that’s walking at certain times or eating at 3pm on the dot! Your dog will feel like it is at home. With toilet breaks around the clock and being played with to keep them entertained along with lovely long walks in the local green spaces, I will do my utmost best to make sure they are happy.

About: I am currently on maternity leave so have the time to spend with your furry babies! Cats are my favourite animal and I have my own fluffy girl called Binky. I can’t walk past a cat in the street without kneeling down and psst pssting them for a cuddle. I have experience caring for dogs and frequently help out friends with drop ins and dog walks when needed. Your doggy can expect countryside walks and lots of fuss and attention. I’m currently on maternity leave so have a lot free time to care for your furry babies! I already spend a lot of time out walking so it would be great to have a furry companion and explore some different areas. I’m available for one off bookings or longer term arrangements depending on what you need. I will follow the instructions you provide and take the time to earn your pets trust inside and out of your home. I’ll provide updates and ensure clear communication of any issues.

About: Growing up surrounded by a menagerie of pets: dogs, cats, rabbits, parrots and a lizard, I have been caring for animals for over 30 years and feel that a home isn't really a home without a furry companion. Owning various pets over the years has results in me being confident in animal care and behaviour. I lead an active life and have run with, climbed mountains and trained from a puppy our working cocker spaniel, who even in old age was mistaken for a puppy! Most recently, I have supported the rehabilitation of a stray Lurcher which came into our care. Teaching her how to live in a home and learn commands and what a toy was, has been extremely rewarding. If your pet has boundless energy or is timid, old or young, this is not a problem and I can easily adapt and prioritise your pet's individual needs. There are woods and many walks in my local area and I am also close to secure dog parks if this forms part of your pets routine. Muddy boots and paws welcome! At a glance, I can offer: * 35 years plus experience * a focus on enrichment and providing a safe environment * confident to administer basic oral medication - easy access to veterinary support * experience of working with dogs of different temperaments * happy to also feed and care for other small pets * Available 24/7 during school holidays * up to date Pet sitting insurance Perfect for all your school holiday, evening and weekend needs! I currently work full-time as a teacher. This allows me to have weekends totally free 24/7. I can be available from 3:30pm weekdays and possibly lunchtimes if you live locally to my work. I am able to take at short notice so please just ask. During the school holiday ( Christmas, Easter, Summer and half terms) I am available 24/7 I recommend a meet and great prior to the booking to discuss the individual needs of your pet. It would be great to know commands and favourite toys etc so I can fully engage with your dog and they can be at ease. On walks, I will always keep your dog on a lead and avoid other dogs unless you are able to inform me of any doggy friends your pet has. Due to my current employment I am DBS checked and offer a trusted and reliable service.

About: I love caring for cats and dogs. This includes puppies, older dogs with special dietary requirements, walking several dogs at once, and caring for some who have a tendency to try to chase small fluffy things…! When checking in on outdoor cats, I will come back at different times of day to try to find them home and spend a little time giving them attention, and to ensure they eat. I’ve cared for puppies in house training. You’ll see from one of my photos I’ve even made bespoke outfits for friends’ doggos! I work from home. I love to walk in all weathers and am able to schedule in as many walks as your dogs would enjoy. I’m generally home in the evenings so can fit around their meal times too. I check on all aspects of diet and daily care, especially with picky eaters or older pets who struggle with appetite. I am very conscientious around safety when walking, and if ever transporting an animal in my car. I have no issues with heavy lifting so if this is necessary to support an older dog into areas of the house they need to go, it’s not a problem. I like a tidy, calm, environment so your animals won’t feel unsettled while you’re away. You provide a room for me, but I bring my own food. I’m happy to take in parcels for you, put the bins out, etc.

Lucie is amazing with our cats. Extremely loving and really bonded with them. She looked after them during the recent heat wave and went above and beyond keeping them cool and keeping me updated on how they were doing. We feel lucky to have her look after the cats as it's such a weight off our mind whilst away that they are so well cared for.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - North Hertfordshire

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in North Hertfordshire on Rover is £16.1 per Visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 6,008 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in North Hertfordshire. About 90% of North Hertfordshire 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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 cat, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
