“Maggie and Toffee had a wonderful time. I booked very last minute and it couldn't have been better. They have a new bestie in Lincoln the Sausage 🥰 Super cuddles and walks and the pictures were so cute. Unfortunately I'm not local, but if I was I'd book again in a heartbeat. Bradley and Pip have a lovely home, perfect for a doggo holiday. Thank you so much Pip for loving them ❤️”


“Angeliki has been a complete angel and taken care of our very anxious rescue dog, brilliantly. Super reliable, and flexible, very caring, she's taken him out for lovely walks in the fields and had him chilling out by the fire with calming music, sends regular photos and updates. Thank you ❤️”


“It was such a relief that Sarah helped us out at short notice while we were away on holiday, she had great communication and she immediately was so loving and affectionate to our dog. She kept us updated through the day so we had a completely worry free trip, and we’d highly recommend her! Thankyou Sarah”
About: Hi, I’m Sarah, an experienced and dedicated pet and house sitter with over 40 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. I’ve owned and cared for dogs of all sizes throughout my life, including showing Bullmastiffs and training dogs in both obedience and agility. I’m confident handling everything from energetic puppies to large, powerful breeds, always using calm, consistent, and positive methods. Alongside dogs, I’ve had over 30 years of experience with horses, from Shetlands through to high-level competition horses, so I’m very comfortable managing more complex care routines and responsibilities. Professionally, I hold a BTEC National Qualification in Small Animal Care, with additional certifications in veterinary nursing and dog grooming. I also have hands-on experience working in a busy boarding kennels and cattery, where I managed day-to-day operations, including caring for multiple animals and overseeing a small breeding programme. At home, I currently care for two lovely Cocker Spaniels, a cat, and a horse—so I truly understand how important it is to leave your animals and home in safe, capable hands. I specialise in house sitting, allowing your pets to stay relaxed in their familiar environment while you’re away. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to maintaining your pets’ normal routines. You can expect regular updates, photos, and complete peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your animals! Pet care is a central part of my daily life, not something I fit in around other commitments. I structure my days around the animals in my care, just as I do with my own pets at home. This means regular feeding times, consistent exercise, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m used to managing multiple animals with different needs, so following routines and keeping everything running smoothly comes naturally to me. Because of my lifestyle and experience, I’m able to offer a high level of flexibility and attention, whether that’s longer walks, more frequent check-ins, or simply being present to keep pets company and settled. Caring for animals has been part of my everyday routine for over 40 years, so it’s second nature to me to prioritise their wellbeing, comfort, and happiness at all times. A typical day with me is structured around your pet’s normal routine, as I believe consistency is key to keeping animals happy and relaxed while you’re away. Mornings usually start with feeding, fresh water, and a calm walk or turnout depending on your pet’s needs. I’m experienced with both high-energy dogs that need proper exercise and older pets who prefer a slower pace. Throughout the day, I provide companionship, playtime, and mental stimulation, as well as any specific care such as grooming, training reinforcement, or administering medication if required. Having worked with a wide range of animals, I’m confident reading behaviour and adjusting care to suit each individual. If you have multiple pets or more complex setups (including horses), I’m very comfortable managing different routines, feeding schedules, and environments. Evenings are kept calm and settled, with feeding, a final walk or check, and ensuring your pets are comfortable for the night. I will keep your home clean, tidy, and secure at all times, treating it with the same respect as my own. I’m also happy to carry out small household tasks such as watering plants or bringing in post. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your pets are being cared for with experience, patience, and genuine affection.
About: I have looked after neighbours pets and family friends’ dogs for well over five years now. I also have experience in tending to senior dogs and with administrating prescribed medications, but also being attentive and stimulating with puppies! I’m currently studying at University during term time in Coventry, but living at home in Lincolnshire during holidays. I’m up to looking after your lovely pets whenever I’m available!! I can easily crate your dog in your home (if you prefer this when they’re left alone inbetween any visits) and make sure that they are comfortable and stimulated throughout any visits.

“Highly recommend!!!!! Teddy spent two days with Sarah and she was so great with him. Accommodated to his needs, pampered him and treated him as her own. I knew he was in safe hands and I am so grateful to her!! Thank you so much, I’ll definitely use her again”

About: I have always adored dogs and I've been taking care of them since my teenage years. My mum met an elderly lady, Sue, at a local library. She needed her dog, Penny, walking, and Mum suggested I helped her. I was 16 at the time and was saving up for a laptop. I had always loved dogs, but never thought about walking them. After a nervous cycle down the country roads and an awkward introduction, I was walking through a wheat field and I realised how peaceful it was. I cherished the experience and since that day, I have been helping with neighbours' dogs, whether that's house sitting them in their own home, walking them or just popping in for 30 minutes. My friend is a dog walker, so I would go for walks with her and I learnt a lot about handling from her too. Since moving to Lincoln with my husband, I haven't had much time to do that, and I don't know my neighbours as well, but I would love to start again and get the ball rolling. I have made a couple of dog walking friends, and we now have our own lovely puppy, Tonka. Training has been tough, so if you choose me to look after your pup, I will definitely keep up with their training as I know how hard it can be! Recently I looked after a friend's dogs in my own home and Tonka loved the experience, however, Archie (my cat) did not, so I would only look after dogs who are good with cats in my own home from now on. I'm currently between jobs. I am a teaching assistant, and I work with children with SEND. The child I was working with at my previous school was in year 6, so has moved on. I am currently looking for a new job, whether that's in school, in a care home or at someone's house as a nanny, so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of people's pets. I have a decent sized house with a fenced garden that has plenty of space for my lovely boy and your dog/s to make friends and play. My cat likes to try and join in too. I will respect the needs and wishes of your pets and always aspire to give them the love and care they deserve wherever I look after them.

“I have left Reeco with Emma twice now. Never left him with anyone before. Emma was amazing made me feel at ease she kept me updated throughout the day. Emma’s dogs was so good with Reeco it’s an amazing environment for him to stay in . When he’s there Emma is also helping with Reeco training . Will not let Reeco stay anywhere else I would highly recommend”

“My little Moose had the best day! He made a true friend,Angus (Joanna's dog). Joanne and her partners communication was excellent throughout Moose's stay, we got plenty of pictures and videos, where we saw our puppy really enjoy spending time with them and Angus. I definitely reccomend and will absolutely be using them again! Once again thankyou for making his day brilliant 🥰”

“Wonderfully looked after our dachshund Wolfie came back Happy and relaxed. Sophie and Charlotte were kind and knowledgeable nothing too much trouble. They are excellent dog sitters and we couldn't have asked for better. Thank you”

About: I grew up with lots of animals like a tiny farm and since going to university, I have missed it :( I always go to my family house where there is 5 cats, 2 goldens and 10 chickens and 1 rabbit. May sound like a lot but there is never a moment of boredom. I work in Boston, 8:30-17:00 Monday to Friday. Please take that into consideration when booking me as it doesn’t not let me edit my work schedule into the app. Anytime after 17:30, if you want your dog walking I would be happy too. I really enjoy going on walks with dogs. I have a fenced garden and love going on walks. Dogs and cats are allowed on furniture so they have many places to venture and relax :)

About: I’ve had a German Shepherd and Staffordshire Bull Terrier Cross rescue of my own. I have also looked after family and friends’ dogs of various sizes. I live in a smoke free home, with no children, with a large walled garden which is safe and welcoming for your pets! I am semi-retired, looking after my own business which is on site. I can be flexible with my hours, so your pets will never be left unaccompanied. I live in a smoke free home, with no children or pets, and a large walled garden. I also live very near public green space and fields, perfect for long walks.
“Natalie is lovely and we were very impressed at the care She showed Lexi. Lexi can be quite stressed with new situations but Natalie's calmness really settled her. The photos showed how She enjoyed her time with her! We would definitely recommend Natalie as a competent dog sitter”

“Liberty has been to Brandy’s twice now for daycare. She is kind, attentive and knowledgable and sends picture and video updates throughout the day. Liberty was nervous to go to daycare at first but on the second day she was excited and had her tail wagging when we arrived. I would definitely recommend Brandy’s services.”

“Absolutely wonderful. My boy was so happy there that the second day he didn't even worry that I was leaving. I felt completely confident and he felt completely relaxed. Knowledgeable, friendly, and two pairs of absolutely safe hands - can't recommend highly enough.”

“Doug has returned tired and happy from his day with Hannah! We had not been able meet Hannah in advance but she was more than accommodating and was super friendly and easy going. It was a hot day so I requested that Doug not be walked but he had access to play and toilet in the garden. We were visiting the area from a fair distance away but if we were ever local again I would book Hannah. I would highly recommend her for doggy care. Thanks Hannah!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, my own 2 (Husky/Akita's) are 10 years old and I've had them since they were 10 weeks old I work from my laptop so am usually available whenever and wherever so long as WiFi is available. Both weekdays and weekends (with enough notice) I would visit the owners House before agreeing to look after anyone's cherished pets, whilst there we would talk about feeding/schedules/behaviour/anything I need to know. The aim is to provide the same that the pet is used to and treat them like family
“Victoria was great with Monty and welcoming to me. Victoria and Bella met us outside on our first visit and we went for a short walk to introduce the dogs before going into the house. I had the feeling that all would be good from our initial meeting as Victoria was very friendly and relaxed. Monty enjoyed his first playdate without me today and I appreciated the photos and messages from Victoria. All went well and I have booked a four night stay for Monty whilst we're at a wedding! Thanks Victoria. Thanks Victoria”

Great communication and photos/videos updates throughout the day with great flexibility. I 100% can’t recommend them enough!! 🙌🏼

Bradley met us when we arrived and Dobby was more than happy to go with him. We had regular updates with pictures throughout the day, which was great. Dobby seemed really happy when we collected him, and seems to had a great day. We will be booking Dobby in again real soon. Thanks so much Bradley 😊

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 Kesteven 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 East Midlands 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.

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.

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. Read more about our requirement for following local licensing requirements .
