“Gillian has been brilliant with our dog Buzz. She has been super flexible and sends us lovely photos to keep us updated with how Buzz is doing. Thank you for your visits, much appreciated! X”
“Christine did a drop in visit for our dog, really good communication dropped me a message when she arrived and left and even came round to visit him before the visit. Felt very reassured, would use again :)”
“Wow! Carrie was so brilliant! She’s so lovely and was able to help us out last minute after being let down by someone else. She cared for our Leo so well and sent regular updates and pictures, which made us feel so at ease. She went above and beyond to make Leo’s care perfect. We would absolutely highly recommend her and book with her again!”
About: Hi - I’m new here on Rover, but I’m certainly not new to dog walking and animal care ! I am a fourth year vet student with a special interest in dogs, cats and all our other small furry, fluffy and feathery friends! I have experience with dog walking having spent a year as a Cinnamon Trust Volunteer. Alongside this volunteering, I have spent extensive time in animal rescues, including employment at Romney House Cat Rescue Centre, and experience at Brighton RSPCA, and Foal Farm Animal Rescue Centre. I also volunteer regularly for street vet, a charity that provides medical care and supplies to homeless individuals and their pets across Bristol. Alongside my degree I have completed a total of 20 weeks in vet surgery’s across the country. This has left me with a strong grasp of animal first aid that will allow me to ensure your pet is both happy and healthy when with me. I am fond of all creatures great and small, and also have experience working on yards, dairy farms and lambing. I would love to walk your dog on any agreed time outside of my University hours. This includes - before 9am or after 5pm during the weekdays and any time on the weekends. I can also offer lunch time walks on Wednesday from 1pm onwards. Being one year away from a qualified vet means I have a solid understanding of animal health, wellbeing and happiness. I will use this knowledge to ensure me and your pet always have the best and safest time when together.
About: I guess all I have is a lot of experience handling animals. I graduated as a qualified veterinary nurse in 2023 and now I am actually studying on the veterinary AGEP course at the University of Bristol. A friend told me about this app and I thought it'd be a good idea to relax and de-stress, especially as my dog is sadly no longer with us. Ideally I would be working any time friday, saturday or sunday. I will occasionally be availible during the day throughout the week but never during the evening (apart from friday). In a pet owners home, I would take the pet(s) out at 8am with breakfast at home. After a break to do some work (+/- cuddle time), some brief playtime if appropriate followed by lunch and back to work in the afternoon. In the evening, I prefer to have playtime followed by diner and then an evening walk an hour later. This is all incredibly variable with regards to your pets normal schedule.
About: Hi, I’m Catharine, a Lancashire lass now living in Weston-super-Mare with my partner, Tom. We’re both huge animal lovers and would love to look after your pet 🐾 We live in a detached house with a secure, fully fenced garden, and because we both work from home, your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and cuddles throughout the day. We don’t currently have pets (or children!) of our own as we’re still settling into our first home after recently moving. We’d love a pet of our own one day, but for now we’re more than happy being the people friends and family call when they need someone to look after theirs. We genuinely love having animals around the house. I’ve been animal mad for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always surrounded by dogs and cats, but my soul dog, Sandie, was extra special. He lived to the amazing age of 19 and was a huge part of my family. We had an especially close bond in his senior years when he became less mobile and relied on me a lot for comfort. Caring for him taught me so much about patience, empathy, and understanding an animal’s individual needs. I’ve done obedience training and even dog dancing with one of my previous dogs, so I’m comfortable with all sorts of personalities, routines, and energy levels. Our home is very peaceful, and we do our best to make every pet feel relaxed and safe. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing in the garden, or snoozing on the sofa after a busy day, they’ll get plenty of love and attention while they’re with us. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I promise to care for them as if they were my own and to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well looked after from the moment they arrive. Please don’t hesitate to message me if you have questions :) I can adapt to your dog’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. I work from home and can be quite flexible with my work. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a safe, calm and comfortable environment where they feel part of the family. We have a secure garden for supervised outdoor time, and dogs will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime and walks throughout the day. I always follow owners’ routines and preferences to help pets feel settled and at home.
About: As a 22-year-old veterinary medicine student with a strong foundation in animal care and a passion for animal welfare, I'm excited to offer your pet a safe, loving, and stimulating environment. My 14 years of experience caring for various animals, including 16 guinea pigs, a dog, a cat, and a rabbit, have equipped me with the skills to meet the unique needs of each pet. I'm dedicated to providing personalized attention and ensuring your furry friend feels right at home. I am a full-time university student at university Monday to Friday so I will be able to mostly fit my work around whatever your pet's schedule is! As a vet student, I can handle and care for most species/breeds to whatever schedule you wish with lots of cuddles and love of course :)
About: Since a young age both Fra and myself have cared for animals. We both had cats and dogs in our homes since birth and have looked after them with utmost care and attention. In our adult years we have taken house sitting seriously and have cared for several homes and a variety of pets. From dogs and cats, to lizards, frogs and guineapigs, we've cared for them all. Pet care takes priority when it comes to our weekly routines. We have various jobs and hobbies, yet we are very flexible and can usually cater to the needs of the animals are the requests of the pet owner. We always take the pets care requirements into consideration. Most pets will require different attention and we make sure to provide what is required. Whether it's walking, feeding, washing or general health care, we have the experience and understanding to provide great pet care.
“Lauren has been absolutely lovely with Nico. This was the first time we’d ever left him, and as he has separation anxiety I was quite nervous - but she was amazing and put him at ease straight away. He felt relaxed and comfortable with her immediately, which meant so much to us. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lauren to anyone looking for dog sitting or house sitting - especially if your dog needs a bit of extra patience and understanding. Thank you so much, Lauren ❤️”
About: We’ve always had pets including, dogs, cats, chickens, ferrets, reptiles and rodents just to name a few. Because of this I absolutely adore animals and enjoy meeting each personality, we’ve taken in older animals for their last stretch on this side and rescued plenty of fiesty babies who become beautiful happy babies. My whole family just loves animals, because of this whilst I’m at university in Plymouth I thought what better way to reduce how much I miss my babies than to look after others. I’m going into my second year at Plymouth and found missing my animals was a huge adjustment so I hope this will bridge the gap for myself. For the last six years I have been looking after neighbours and friends animals when they go on holiday or have an emergency and truly enjoy spending time with them as well as looking after them. Hopefully I can do the same in Plymouth. Im currently going into my second year at university in Plymouth with a changeable but low course load. This means that I am available for plenty of time with your pet be that toilet breaks and some loving or house sitting with them or taking them on a walk when needed. I’m looking forward to exploring some new areas and I believe there’s some English heritage places I haven’t been to yet! Because I am staying in halls I am unable to care for pets in my home however I would be happy house/pet sitting when I would only have to leave for university lectures which tend to be 2 hours long (plus commuting)
About: I love animals and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I have a miniature Jack Russell called Floyd and love spending time with and walking other dogs, often dog sitting for friends and family. I live in a rural area surrounded by fields and have a large secured garden where your furry friend can come and go as they please. I know how to make your dog feel safe, secure and loved and can give you complete peace of mind when they're in my care. I know the importance of good exercise and stimulation for your dog and have a lot of experience with nervous and hyperactive dogs. I know it can be tough finding the right person to look after your furry friend but you can rest assured with me.
About: I’m an excellent cuddle giver- dogs mainly ;) and an expert treat giver! My best friend’s are my cocker spaniel (3) called Sam, and my springier spaniel (7) called Gleann, I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember! I find walking so rewarding and relaxing, it brings me joy to get out in nature and explore the world. I’m happy to walk or look after your little pups either alongside my dogs or if you request I can walk them without. I’m currently working full time for a local sign company, working in Clevedon and I live in Weston-Super-Mare. However in a few months I’ll be moving to Yatton- not too far away! I have a medium fenced garden and have a full uk drivers license, with room for furry friends to sit for the walks if you’d prefer rather than a street walk, but I’m happy if you’re happy.
“Ashleigh did an amazing job with Pops. She came to meet him beforehand which allowed Pops to get to know her a bit. This was really helpful and gave me an opportunity to explain his little sausage dog ways. She also let me know how he was doing while she was there and sent pictures which I really appreciated. Thanks so much Ashleigh. Really hoping Pops gets to see you again soon 😊”
About: I have been working with animals since I have been 17 and I just love the way every dog is different and I enjoy going out with walks and feeding them every morning my own dogs have their own set routine in the morning I am currently not working at the moment so I have seven days a week to look after any other animals and any sort of animals I have worked in kennels before and had to stay there overnight to make sure all the animals were safe and fastened into that tense
About: Hellooo I’m Phoebe, I’m a qualified veterinary surgeon and starting a new role which means I’ll have some days off during the week and weekend. I grew up at a child minders who also had a pet sitting service, so from a young age have looked after anything from hamsters and tortoises to large-breed dogs. I have my own dog and tortoise who I adore! As a vet, I’m comfortable with giving medications at home and following your pet’s routine as closely as possible! I have an attention to detail and am more than happy to give you regular updates and photos. I’ve been working as a vet now for 2 years and starting a new role this summer! I have my own tortoise and dog who I adore. In my new role at work my shifts are constantly changing, which means available dates are not regular. But we can have a chat about what you and your pet need and work out a plan from there! On weekdays I can possibly do drop ins before and after work for cats, so just drop me a message to check dates that aren’t available on my calendar. I believe all pets are different in terms of what they need when their pet parents are away or busy. Sometimes this is a change of environment and other times it’s home stays. Unfortunately since I am in rented accommodation I cannot provide overnight stays, but I can walk dogs and do drop ins for a variety of pets. I can also house sit during the day. Due to my own pet responsibilities, overnight house sitting is not ideal.

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 Somerset choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code.

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

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.
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.
