“Rick was fantastic with our dog. She can be unsure of people at first, but he was calm, patient, and really tuned into her, which made all the difference. He stuck to her routine exactly as we had asked and kept us updated throughout, giving us real peace of mind. Would highly recommend and will definitely book again.”
“Austin did great. We have two dogs, one with special needs. Austin dog/house sat and provided outstanding care for our dogs. I would use his services again!!! Thank you Austin!”
About: With 15 years of my own dog (sadly passed 2 years ago) I now petsit a little adorable white dog and it just brings me so much joy and company in my house that I want to get more pet friends. Their is a dog park right across the road from my house where I usually throw a ball round with dogs twice a day, I also try to get out to Strathclyde park or around eurocentral for a long walk to tire us all out. I currently work part time so I have a flexible schedule that I can work around to suit the dogs needs and ensure they are getting exercised first thing in the morning, lunch time, afternoon and evening. I love to talk to dogs, sounds crazy but I live alone so company would be nice when im home. I keep treats in the house but treats and food are discussed with you to ensure I dont overstep.
“Colette was a perfect sitter for our puppy while we were out for an evening! It was his first time being away from us so we were a bit nervous to leave him but Colette reassured us he would be fine. She was very kind and understanding of him being a little fussy while we left, and kept us updated while we were away which help us to not worry so much!”
“Amy came and stayed to look after our high energy Labrador. She came to meet us at our house before and Obi naturally loved her. Amy sent pics of Obi and he was definitely tired the next day - Amy was a pleasure to deal with and would 100% rebook when needed again 💖”
About: Hello, I’ve had dogs all my life, got my first dog as a child then had two Dalmatians as a young adult and now I have a working cocker spaniel puppy who is 9 months and I have plenty of experience with dogs :)
About: Hi! I’m Leigha, I’m a Psychology student and I’m here to make sure your fur babies feel safe, happy and loved while your away! Cats have always been apart of my life since a young age, so I understand just how important it is to have someone you trust to look after your pet! I’ve also had work experience for a cat sitting company previously so I have first-hand experience on just how unique each cat can really be. Feel free to ask any questions!
About: I have worked in a doggy daycare where I was in charge of training and exercising dogs of all breads and sizes and I couldn’t love anything more! I currently work night shift in a warehouse so I am available every day before 4pm for drop in visits and walks for your pet! My biggest priority when it comes to pets is safety before caring for your pet I would love to go over your safety preferences so your pet has the best care they can!
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as i can remember. Caring for and helping animals is my greatest joy, and to be able to give extra love to all your furry family’s would be amazing. I’m only working 1 week out of 3 just now within my work as there was a fire forcing my Starbucks store to close. Although this is a terrible thing I thought what a perfect time to do this as I’ve always wanted to. Most weeks I’m available anytime, anyday to help you and your furry friends. I currently can’t do boarding in my own home, but I’m more than happy and available to care for your pets in your own home. I have so much time for animals and love playing with them, I have so much love to give and a whole lot of time on my hands! So all the time in the world to keep your pets busy :)
About: **DISCOUNT CODE - LUCYK10726** Currently I live with two mini dachshunds which belong to my flatmate, one is 4 years old and the other is 1 year old. I help feed, walk, and play with the dogs. I have also sat for my aunt's young dog Lottie, and my friend's two cats and their newborn kittens. I have also cared for a senior dog, Basil. At 15 years old he needed to be fed, walked, medicated, bathed, and was given plenty of cuddles and comfort. If you have smaller pets such as hamsters, fish, etc. I can drop in to feed them. I have a few years experience taking care of my own guinea pigs. I am available weekdays from 5pm onwards to walk dogs or pop in quickly to feed any pets. Friday nights may be more flexible, contact me to discuss pet sitting. On weekends, I'm available all day Saturday and Sunday for any pet sitting or dog walking needs! :) I am happy to learn about the safety rules put in place for each individual home and/or as is required for each and every pet.
About: I have vast experience when it comes to looking after dogs - I've been in veterinary for 7 years, and a registered Veterinary nurse for 3 years. I enjoy looking after all dogs of all shapes, sizes and ages. I'm able to give medications, including injectable medications.
“Caitlin was amazing! I really cannot recommend her enough. She sent daily updates on my dog and made me and my partner feel so happy leaving him with her. Even when we had a crisis the day we were meant to get back she was great, and just made us feel like Doug was one thing we didn’t have to panic about! ?❤️”
“Diane was great with our dog! She came and met him before which was great for her to meet him and settled our nerves! Gave us updates on the day and was really accommodating. Would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
“Maia was absolutely wonderful, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very first message, she was warm, responsive, and incredibly communicative, which immediately put me at ease. She arrived right on time and took such thoughtful, attentive care of Sunny. She made sure he had a lovely walk, plenty of affection, and lots of cuddles, all the things that matter so much to me when trusting someone with him. When we returned home, Sunny was completely relaxed and content, which spoke volumes. It was clear he had a genuinely lovely time and had been cared for with kindness and attention throughout. I am extremely selective about who looks after Sunny, he is not just my dog, he is my lifeline and deeply precious to me and Maia exceeded every expectation. If you are in the Glasgow area and looking for someone truly trustworthy, kind, and reliable, I would wholeheartedly recommend Maia. If she is available, don’t even think twice, just book her. She is absolutely fantastic.”
About: Growing up, I've had the privilege of caring for a variety of pets, which has created my passion for all animals. With over 20 years of having dogs and cats in my family, I've attended puppy classes and taken on the responsibility of looking after family dogs. I enjoy going on walks, playing, and nurturing pets, and I'm well-equipped to handle any situations that may arise during these outings. My extensive background in pet care ensures that I can provide the love and attention your furry friend deserves, making them feel comfortable and loved while you're away. You can trust that your pet will be in great hands I currently work in an office just 10 minutes from my house, the hours are 9/5 Monday to Thursday and finish at 2.30 on a Friday. However I live with my mum still so someone will always be in to look after your furry friend☺️ working 10 minutes away is great as I can come down and take them out for walks on my break. I walk plenty myself throughout the day so would love to have a friend to bring with me! I have a reasonable size back garden for your pets to run around and play in. My family live around the corner with a golden retriever and a cockapoo, giving your furry pet plenty company on walks if allowed! All in all it is a safe and happy environment for your wee pet to be in.
About: Not had my own dogs before but have looked after friends previously. Happy to do multiple big walks a day as required and even runs if they like that! I currently work doing workshops in schools which is mostly term time and during the day. Some days there isn’t any work in a school and just working from home one or two days a week I have a large grassy garden for a pet to run around in which is secure. My fiancé and I also regularly take walks in the week and larger walks on the weekend and do love to hike so if your pet enjoys big long walks we can happily get them bagging some munros!
About: Since I was little I’ve had a deep love for all animals. No matter the species or breed their presence makes me calm and fills me with joy. I’m a very caring individual with a deep love of nature. I have a beautiful cat who is 13 and I rescued Bertie two years ago. He is a German spitz mix. I trained Bertie myself and he comes on walks regularly with me. If your dog prefers a solo walk, that’s absolutely fine! From the tiniest pup to old English sheepdogs I’ve looked after them all. I am very understanding and like to get to know each animal I care for. All animals are different and have a routine that really helps with their anxiety, behaviour and well being. I take the time to understand their needs and make sure they are happy and content. To me, there is no greater joy than seeing an animal or child happy. Thank you for taking the time to Look at my page. I work from home however, I am looking to start a pet sitting/dog walking business in September 2026. I am available for toilet breaks Monday to Sunday and am happy to take a dog that is anxious to be left on its own into our home. I appreciate some dogs can get distressed when left and that is something I can assist with. If your dog is a male and has not been neutered, I’m afraid this would not be possible due to my male dog. I am available in the evenings for walking your friend and at the weekends I am available for day care, walks and home stays. All questions welcome. I find out firstly the owners needs and make sure I follow their guidance. This is very important to me as you are trusting me to support you in caring for your family member. During toilet break visits I always spend time with the cat or dog as I don’t like to leave them unless the owner wishes. This is just to bond with them and give them some company before leaving. When dogs are in my home or staying I make sure that the dogs routine is similar to their home comforts. My children are around dogs daily and adore them. They are gentle, caring and understand boundaries. I provide updates, pictures and video calls for anyone who would like to check in with their beloved pooch. My garden has seven foot high fencing which is secure. No puppers have escaped which is reassuring and allows me to let them explore the garden if they like being outside. Lastly and most importantly I will love your dog or cat like they are my own. Cuddles, snuggles, attention, walks, reassurance and the occasional sing song!
About: I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for my family's dog, who was a cherished member of our household. Throughout those years, I was involved in every aspect of their care, including feeding, walking, grooming, administering medication when needed, attending veterinary appointments, and providing daily companionship and attention. This long-term experience taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize and respond to a dog's physical and emotional needs. Our beloved dog fudge recently passed away, and while it has been a difficult loss, the experience has deepened my appreciation for the bond between people and animals and strengthened my passion for caring for dogs. I currently work from home, however, I am available to travel and work from anywhere that has stable Internet if needed. I am free weekends and can be free from 6pm weekdays. I will ensure all windows remain closed, verify that all areas are free from potential hazards, and confirm that your cat receives adequate playtime, is content, and is properly fed.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - North Lanarkshire
Caitlin stayed with our 3 Italian greyhounds while we were away for 6 nights. Normally we leave them with family when we go away, and we were anxious about how they would do with a stranger. We shouldn't have worried, because within an hour or so of leaving our house, Caitlin sent us a photo of all the dogs cuddling up with her on the couch. She was really great about sending daily updates and photos, and the dogs were happy and healthy when we returned. Not only that, the house was as tidy as if she'd never been there, and she'd washed the towels she'd used, etc. (I wasn't expecting this and would've been happy to tidy up myself, so was a treat!) I would highly recommend Caitlin to anyone and would love to have her back with us in the future! 10/10!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred North Lanarkshire walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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.
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 .
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in North Lanarkshire choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
