About: Hi! I’m Chelsea 😊 I’ve owned multiple dogs at the same time for the majority of my life. Everything from chihuahuas to staffs. I absolutely love dogs, they’re my favourite humans (yes you read that right) I’m currently first aid and cpr trained so comfortable walking high energy, likely to get in a pickle dogs, puppies and elderly dogs needing extra care and attention. I’m more than happy to adapt to every dogs needs and demands to make their walk perfect for them. I am currently upgrading my skills with a level 3 award in canine care, behavior and welfare (ofqual standard) at the minute before I begin boarding and dog sitting from my home. I am the ever proud owner of my elderly chihuahua, Lexi who I love very much. She is one of my children. I’m used to walking 20k plus steps a day and love a good hike so am more than happy to provide bigger more strenuous walks for the high energy pups. I work part time, three days a week but finish on those days at 2pm so can still offer walks on those days too after that time I’m currently working part time leaving most of my week free for all your walking and dog sitting needs! I am free any day after 2pm and the majority of days free from 8am. I have a very large fenced back garden with plenty of running and playing space for your dog giving us a loads of opportunity for a good run up and down and some great games of fetch. Our garden is westerly facing for all the fury sunbathers out there with a large shaded area too! My home is all open plan for free roaming of the place and are more than happy for your doggies to cuddle up on the sofa with us!
About: I have 6 years of veterinary care experience, I spent 4 of those years working for a mobile veterinary business so I have plenty of experience visiting other people’s homes to look after their fur babies. I have also done pet sitting for 5 family’s throughout the years. Building my own special bonds with their pets. I have looked after dogs of all ages ranging from puppies to 16 year old golden oldies. I am currently working full time, however have a flexible job in which I could work from home, as well as plenty of free time on weekends and evenings. I live in an apartment with a park just opposite, your pet will have access to plenty of greenery in order to do their business. I live in a coded entry apartment so there is no risk of your pet running outside
“5 stars doesn’t even come close! After being let down at the last hurdle Sarah agreed to do a 2 a day visit for 10 days with 36 hours notice! As cat owners who have never left our cats for a long period of time, Sarah did everything to ease our concerns and made sure that we never left wondering! She was honestly amazing, she came and met the cats before hand and sent us photos twice a day every day for the whole ten days. We have come home to two very happy, very well looked after cats and we can say without hesitation that we will 100% be booking Sarah in future as she really does go the extra mile. ”
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 great from initial contact, very professional and great with our babies. Keptus updated every day. I would not hesitate to recommend her. And will definitely use her on our next trip. Thank you so much.🙂”
“Oscar is a brilliant cat sitter. He very clearly loves animals and gives a high level of care as a result. He sent detailed updates with pictures and videos on every visit which was much appreciated. We’ll definitely be using his services again. Thank you!”
About: I am DBS checked.I bring a calm, caring, and attentive approach to every pet I care for—whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs a little extra TLC. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages. I quickly build trust with both pets and their owners. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and I always go the extra mile to ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy on our walks. I’m available for walks after work on weekdays and throughout the weekend, making me a great fit for pet parents who need flexible and reliable help during busy times. Because I already structure my day around caring for my own pup, adding more furry friends to the mix is something I genuinely enjoy. Dog boarding is not currently offered. I offer puppy and play visits in your home, providing them with their usual meal, toilet breaks and play time.
About: I have grown up with small and medium sized dogs as well as cats. I want to provide the best care to everyone I meet and to provide trusted care to our furry friends! I am flexible with my schedule so I can do morning, lunchtime, and evening visits during the week. I can also do day visits and walks on the weekends I respect everyone's rules and will send texts when arriving and leaving, as well as videos during my time with your pet so that you can feel reassured that your pet is safe
About: I am a reliable, caring dog person with personal experience raising my own dog from a puppy to her very old age. Friends always come to me when they need their dogs looked after, big or small, and I can be active in walkies or active in cuddling - whichever suits your dog best. Living by the sea allows for great exercise for your special pet, and if they're tired I have a car that means I can get them to a location and off or on the lead to stretch their legs and get home safely. I also live by a large field for those easy to access grassy walks. I work from home at least two days a week (Monday and Friday), can be available on weekends, and generally have availability for overnight boarding. Pets are welcome on furniture in our house, unless you would like me to enforce any rules - which of course I can! There's a fenced garden for safe outdoor play as well. Please don't hesitate to get in touch about care for your dog - whatever size, age or personality. If you have several dogs, I have experience with allowing three dogs to board at one time so the options are certainly open. I look forward to hearing from you :) I work from home at least two days a week (Monday and Friday) with minimal meetings so can be active during the day with walks and care. For boarding, I can do a whole week if your dog would be happy being left to roam the house while I’m out. Please just ask. I am generally available on weekends, and have availability for overnight boarding. I have a fenced garden to keep your pets safe, and quite a spacious interior for them to be comfortable when in the house. I do allow pets on the furniture but if you would like to keep your own rules for that I can absolutely honour and enforce those.
About: Both of us have lived with varied dog breeds our whole lives, these pets are more like siblings to us and are always the focus of our attention whether we’re in or out the house! We can guarantee your loved one is in caring hands they’ll not want the sitting to be over! We do work full time but very flexible times and have the ability to work from home where necessary. Weekends are ideal and we can fully support evenings if required at short notice. We have an abundance of nature walks in the local area and even smaller patches of green if that’s preferred. We can cater to those tired aged legs or those who prefer a marathon and even a coastal stroll! Your pet will be treat like family no matter the time and need.

About: I've spent my whole life with cats and dugs. I grew up with a tabby cat and a cocker spaniel and, when I was lodging in London, I lived with a calico kitten and an ex-Police German Shepherd. Friends, family, and folk I've got chatting to in the pub have all relied on me too look after their cats, kittens, and a range of dog breeds including labradors, rottweilers, and spaniels. I'm a devoted Cat-Dad. Lacey, our nine-year-old rescue cat, has me wrapped round her little toe-bean. I'd love to get a dog but I fear they might cause chaos at my day job in an art gallery. I'm friendly, reliable, and pride myself on excellent communication. I can't wait to meet your furry friend! I work shifts in an art gallery in Newcastle which offers great flexibility to accommodate your furry friend. My best availability is mornings and evenings Monday - Friday. I offer updates and photos from every check-in. I make time to play with your cat and check, food, water, and litter trays. I'm always happy to spend time with them to build trust and a real bond.
About: I have helped friends out with their dog walking, dog sitting and would really love to meet some new pups and get out more. I have dog sat for a few times over the weekends with small and large dogs to making sure to follow meal times and plans and any other requirements needed for the pup, also taking them to the beach and not just to a field close by. I have also got my level 1 animal care certificate and diploma, my level 2 animal care/management extended certificate, and I am also qualified as a level 2 dog groomer and will be completing my level 3 in September. I’m currently working at a doggy daycare during the week but would still love to meet all your lovely fur babies and give them all the playtime and walks they would want I’m completely flexible on weekends and can be during the week on selected days. If your fur babies where to come to where I live for a while my back and front gardens are completely fenced in the back has 6 foot fences and the gate can be locked the front garden fences are shorter but is still safe.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - North Tyneside
Oscar was great, had to go out of town on short notice and Oscar came to walk, feed and keep my dog Lin company a few times during the day and a half I was gone. He was very communicative keeping me updated how Lin was doing and sharing pictures reassuring me Lin was doing well. Honestly 10 out of 10
Amy was great with our cat and kitten, communication was fantastic throughout and we loved getting so many pictures and updates of how they were doing. It was really reassuring knowing that she was there to give them love and attention so we could enjoy a rare night out! We’d love to have her back in the future and I’m sure the cats would love that too
We had a really positive experience with Alannah. She followed all the instructions carefully and was incredibly helpful and kind throughout. It was clear that she genuinely cared and took great care of our cat, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Overall, a fantastic sitter—we would definitely book with Alannah again and highly recommend her to others!
Absolutely 100% recommendation. Would give more stars if we could. Was initially a very short notice inquiry due to family circumstances so we were apprension at first using rover.com. This apprension was soon put to rest. Great communication consistently from initial contact all the way through and updates that made the family feel at ease and know the pets were in good hands.Will gladly use Liv again(if she wasnt too traumatised by our mental pair of hounds).Thanks liv and rover.com
Amela is very reliable and gives great updates on my cat when I am away. Also has lots of common sense, when something didn't work the way she expected it to she immediately contacted me. I have no reservations to recommend her on her reliability and common sense attitude.
Ellen has been absolutely superb with little Pitta. We were away for a week and it was our first time leaving him home & she reassured us so much via msgs and picture updates. My little cat never really shows interest in any company other than ours but he’s been so relaxed and comfortable around Ellen, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. No need to look any further, Ellen is the right person to take care of your cat & we will 100% be booking again when needed. :)

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.
