About: I have taken care of my own dogs since was able to walk, I take my own dogs into daily and always love the company. Walking is my safe space and dogs are too which is why this job is so well fitted for me I look after my own dogs daily so it’s routine for me. Normally I go to gym early then walk the dogs before lunch and at tea time. I leave close to the sea so a beach trip is manditory! I have a fenced garden with one friendly cocker spaniel at home, she loves running and especially the. beach and playing on a field, I’m always happy to bring her along with me!
“Maya was very friendly and attentive with our little Tino. He took to her straight away and didn't look back at me when leaving. I received photos and an update with Tino cuddled in on the sofa - very cute. We look forward to Mayas next visit in a couple of weeks would very much recommend- thank you 😊💙”
“Olivia recently stayed at our home and looked after our very energetic needy Labrador Oreo. We instantly felt at ease leaving Oreo with Olivia, she has great knowledge in looking after dogs and Oreo fell in love with her straight away, we will definitely use Olivia again in the future! Thanks again Olivia”
“Elsa sent updates throughout her stay and nothing was too much trouble for her. Dogs seemed very calm and happy on our return, so obviously were not stressed by her presence. A perfect guest in our home and we'll certainly ask her again. 😊🙏🏻”
“This was the first time we were leaving our cat Fruit for an extended period of time, which of course came with some nerves that were resolved instantly by Roxanne. She was incredible in every single way, from being patient with our little girl (who came out of her shell instantly due to Roxanne’s nurturing personality) to constant updates when we were in Vienna. I would highly recommend Roxanne to look after your fur baby as I know we won’t be looking anywhere else.”

About: I’ve looked after my own, friends and neighbours dogs from a young age and they have relied on me for dog walking duties, overnight stays and drop in visits. My family had 4 spaniels when I was younger so I’m very used to looking after dogs with lots of energy and ensuring they receive the correct amount of exercise. My family fostered dogs when I was younger so I have a range of experience looking after lots of different breeds. I don’t currently have any pets and I miss the company that a dog brings. I’m very friendly, caring and loyal individual who throughly enjoys the company of four legged friends. I enjoy taking dogs out on walks long or short and I am happy to have them on or off the lead whichever you prefer. I live in a great area for dog walks and I always provide pictures, videos and updates of your pet throughout their stay. I only care for pets from the same household during any one booking to ensure they receive my full care and attention. I can work from home when needed so I am flexible on those days. Im an early riser and I enjoy a early walk with your dog before I start work. Im available most weekends for boarding. I have a gated front yard and a fully fenced back garden. CCTV camera in my home for security. I also live in a great area for dog walking with a lot of land that is away from traffic.
About: Hello! I'm Oscar, I'm 36 years old, and I love animals! That's why I'm here! I am also a volunteer carer at the Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter, so I am more than comfortable around any pet and will be able to attend to your pets' needs. My cats, Nala and Marie, are everything to me. They're both rescued cats from the streets. They're house cats but they do enjoy some outdoor time, we love to take them out on leads to have a little walk on the porch or back garden. I know what I'd want from someone looking after my girls, and always try to do the best for others peoples' pets!

“Absolutely fantastic. Was lovely to meet her beforehand and our dog instantly fell in love with her. She asks the right questions and we felt she takes this seriously. We have never left someone in our home with our dog before but there was no doubt for us. She comes across really well. Friendly and trustworthy. She kept us updated throughout and we would definitely love to ask her to help us again.... So would our Dexter!!”

About: I born in a farm, with all sorts of animals. I always wanted a dog and for 6 years I got the best friend I could ask for, until he died of epilepsy. I know how tricky it is sometimes to balance work, studies, trips, etc. I had to use these services before, so now that I have plenty of time I thought I could be of some help for others. I work nearby and me and my housemate arrange everything so your precious will not feel lonely. I can do early walks and long walks in the evenings I love pet cuddles and I'll follow their routines and preferences and needs. I can also help with their training or teach them games and rules.

We can’t thank Alannah enough for taking care of our puppy while we went in our first holiday leaving him at home. We were nervous leaving him but Alannah soon put our nerves at ease. She met us prior confirming our booking to ensure our pup was ok with her and she was good to stay with him ✨ Rex is very energetic being 8months old so we were hoping he would settle while we were away and were reassured with regular messages and photos at our request that things were smooth back home. We left Alannah emergency contacts just in case for extra piece of mind. If you need someone trustworthy, kind, and caring for your pooch I would highly recommend Alannah. Added bonus of the house being safe whilst we were away and clean and tidy when we were back! Thank you so so much! You deserve a holiday yourself now! X
Maya took really good care of our dog Minnie while we were away for a week. We were sent regular texts and videos which really put our mind at rest as this was the first time we have had a sitter staying in our home. We came home to a lovely clean and tidy house and Minnie had obviously been really well looked after. I would definitely book Maya again and recommend to others. Thanks Maya ☺️
Jess was amazing with Bindi and our home. Unlike others, we came home to a clean home as well a happy dog and all in order. We also asked Jess to help us out for a few extra hours because our flights were delayed and she was happy to help out with covering that extra time to feed Bindi and make sure all was ok at home before we made it back. She sent us photos and made sure we were informed and was responsive to messages and requests, so thank you so much Jess. We really appreciate it.
OMG! There are not enough positive words in the English dictionary to describe Jessica ! I have used Rovers 3 times now in total (all different sitters). First one was amazing, second left me extremely anxious and third.. well you know the saying, third times the charm!! Jessica honestly showed so much love to our tornado! He is a handful at first, where he wants your non stop attention and will bark at you. He will then kiss you a million times if he loves you. I came home just now, and it was like we weren’t away. He genuinely wasn’t fussed we were back and I was like “ok then! This is great!” I want to list the things I honestly adore about Jessica: - She gave me continuous updates on Buddy - She didn’t have to, but she walked him - She is so friendly! - You can tell she loves animals! - She isn’t just friendly to animals, she is extremely friendly to everyone else she speaks with! - Has such a positive, energetic attitude! - She left the house in such a clean state ♥️ I said to my husband I wouldn’t want to go abroad due to the last time. But Jessica honestly was so amazing that I have decided to go away later in the year and book her again ! Honestly thank you so much! I have never felt more at ease leaving Buddy before ♥️ If anyone is considering booking her, DO IT! You will honestly be so happy with her!! Your babies will be cared for so well!
Corrie was an absolute hero - we had an emergency a needed last minute cover. Corrie was super quick to respond, very friendly, polite, accommodating and willing to help at short notice. Corrie was conscious to ensure she understood Thea’s routine and how best to care for her which was very reassuring and put me at ease. I would absolutely recommend Corrie to others and we will certainly use her services in the future ourselves.
Olivia provided the best of care for our 3 fur babies for the full week we were in holiday. A* care, plenty of updates for the anxious parents, without Olivia we wouldn’t of been able to enjoy our holiday she kept us at ease, kept our babies safe and gave them plenty of care and exercise Would recommend Olivia if you need your pets given the best of care

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 Tyneside 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 Tyneside 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.
