I was absolutely delighted with the care Rick and Emma provided for Bernie and Lori. Knowing they were being so well looked after meant I could fully enjoy my holiday without any worries. I received regular updates and photos after each visit, which was very reassuring. When I returned home, they had even left a detailed chart showing everything they had done, which I thought was a nice touch. I would definitely use their service again and would recommend them to others.

Cannot recommend Nicola highly enough. Was happy to stop by ahead of the booking to meet the pets and know where to find everything. Updated us twice daily like clockwork with photos and videos which were a highlight of the day. Nicola absolutely DOTED on our cat and two rabbits, I'm genuinely surprised the pets weren't more disappointed when we came back! Nicola well definitely be at the top of our booking list when we need a sitter again 😊

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: I am well experienced in dog sitting, boarding, drop ins, and walking, having done this type of work since a young age, but more consistently in the last four years. I have also had the privilege of dog & house sitting for THS in various locations from London to South Carolina USA. I have extensive experience with rescue dogs who suffer with behavioural issues like resource guarding, aggression and reactivity. I have been on the receiving end of that “I just need a break” feeling and would love to use my skills and knowledge to help other dog owners who perhaps are in a similar situation. Don’t ever worry about this being an “issue”. Having so much experience with high prey drive dogs in the past I am also confident fitting muzzles, or continuing any ongoing muzzle training where required with a positive reinforcement approach. If your dog is pretty chill, lazy, placid or easy going- great! I’m open to help care for any dog regardless of their temperament, energy levels, training requirements, etc. I am very big on dog training, so more than happy to incorporate what I know into my appointments, and/or continue with any training owners currently have, for example, loose leash walking, cooperative care, impulse control, obedience and recall. Dogs love predictability & structure and this is very important for their nervous systems. I’m happy to help integrate with your dogs routine where possible! Boarding in my home: I have a fenced, fully secure back garden that any dog in my care will have access to. The kitchen looks out on to the garden, so I can keep a close eye on your fur baby at all times. If a dog is in my care they will never just be left alone to find their own fun- always in my line of sight and properly watched after. I also have a crate for anyone who would prefer their dogs to maintain their crate training routine. This can be especially helpful for any dogs who have a tendency to be destructive or pick up and eat things they shouldn’t around the house, which can pose potential safety concerns. I have a comprehensive understanding of dog body language, able to confidently tell if they are communicating signals of happiness, stress, excitement and warnings.

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.

Olivia followed instructions amazing and took care of our precious cat Willow. Olivia changed times to suit the cat and even thought to leave food out! when she wouldn’t return one day! (Totally normal for cats in summer) I would recommend Olivia in future and would definitely use her services again.

About: I’ve owned a west highland terrier for 11 years, I’ve trained her since she was a pup! I have also taken care of my step mums dogs too she has two small dogs, they absolutely love my scratches and get excited to see me every time. I’ve been told I’m a dog whisperer as doggies absolutely love me and I’m always the one at gathering in the corner with the dog. I love walking and do so daily and I love having a wee companion with me. I’m good with anxious dogs as I’ve helped a few dogs that have dealt with anxiety over the years. My little dog has had many illnesses and has allergies so I’m good with giving dogs medicine and helping with any problems and giving baths or helping with skin allergies, my dog also suffers from inflammatory bowel disease so I’m no stranger to upset tummies either. I currently work part time on the weekends and I’m currently studying at university but I am only in three days and only for a few hours or do online work so I would be able to fit dog walking or pet sitting into my schedule easily, I’m able to look after dogs or walk them at night on the weekends too if needed. I don’t currently offer pet sitting in my house but I do have my own dog that if your dog likes company I can bring in walks!

About: I've owned dogs and a variety of pets all my life. I completed my Animal Care qualification and also worked in a vets, giving me the knowledge to handle most situations calmly and confidently. I have 2 dogs of my own and regularly pet sit for neighbours, family and friends. I'm caring, compassionate and reliable - your pet will be treated exactly like one of my own. I'm currently working part time in home care, so my hours vary week to week, but I have good flexibility during the day and can often fit in visits between shifts. I'm available for daily drop-ins, garden breaks, feeding visits and short walks for all dogs, including early mornings, afternoons and some weekends depending on my schedule that week. I visit pets in their own home so they stay in a familiar, comfortable environment with their normal routine. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, garden access and general care, and I'm happy to take dogs of any size out for a short walk on the lead. I always make sure I've got a secure hold and a good feel for a dog's walking style before we set off, so you can be confident your pet is safe with me.

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: **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.

Holly was super friendly and accommodating when I got in touch with a last minute booking request after struggling to find an available pet-sitter in my area. Holly was happy to look after my two rabbits and my flatmate's cat without issue, and shared photos while we were away. Highly recommended!

About: I have had pets throughout my life and they are a huge part of my family. I live alone with a dog (5 years old) and cat (15 years old), so I know how important it is for them to be well looked after if you’re unable to. I often pet sit for family and friends and I’ve really enjoyed doing this over the years. I work four days a week and commit to helping Wednesday at any time and then I work flexibly and so can support other days as well. I have my own cat and dog so cannot stay at other people’s houses however I am happy to check in or take dogs out for a good walk. During weekends I am available all day and can support to ensure that your pets are well looked after if you’re unable to. I am a strong believer in treating my animals with love and affection whilst ensuring they are properly trained. They are my family and I know how important it is to know they are being well looked after if you’re unable to.

I was very happy to leave my wee cat Tinkerbell in Kimberley care. She has the same breed of cat, so was familiar with their little quirks. I was also happy with the cost of the pop ins, it was less than expected, so I would be happy to make a further booking when necessary. Thank you Kimberley for your service.

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.

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.

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.

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.
