About: I have been an animal lover since I was a child, and have cared for various animals throughout my life. Although I am new to Rover, I have always been the go-to person to care for family and friends pets, and always treat them as my own. I have experience looking after different dog breeds of varying ages with different energy levels, temperaments and particular needs. If I have the opportunity to spend time with dogs I will take it, even on my travels I will visit a dog rescue or care for the stray dogs. I have a Labrador named Daisy who is 13 years old and treat her like my child, so rest assured I know the importance of caring for your pup! I am currently working part-time meaning I have a flexible schedule. I am available Monday mornings and afternoons, Tuesday early mornings and afternoons, Wednesday and Thursday before 9am and after 3pm. Weekends are more flexible as I am off two days and alternate a 4 hour shift on a Friday/Saturday so have plenty of time. I live with my mum in a house which has gates at the front and side, and a fenced garden. I have a 13 year old Labrador who is very gentle and friendly.
“Charlie had his first overnight stay with Kate, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. She kept in regular contact throughout, sending photos and videos to keep us updated on how things were. It was clear that Charlie was well looked after and having a great time. We can’t recommend Kate highly enough.”
“We had a great experience with Ashleigh and would happily book again. We were kept updated with messages and photos and our dog had a great weekend playing with Theo! Thank you for taking such good care of Finn!”
“Sarge absolutely loved his time with Lauren, he made himself at home straight away and Lauren sent lots of pupdates, it was so reassuring to know that Sarge was comfortable and being well looked after. I wish I lived more locally because I’d have a dog sitter for life with Lauren if I could. Thank you so much!”
“Jacqueline was amazing!! She took such good care of our big dog Dante, attending to his needs. She sent lots of photos which was great. Communication was brilliant and we would definitely be booking with Jacqueline again!!”
“Angus was the first sitter we have used through the Rover service. We could not be happier with the way he cared for Della, our 12 yr old Patterdale Terrier. We received regular updates throughout the duration of her stay and she received such loving care.”
“Oreo recently stayed with Karen and Paul for 12 nights. She was well cared for in a home-from-home environment in a lovely setting. I was sent updates on how she was doing, including pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Karen again when we next need a sitter. Thanks again, Karen and Paul!”
“It was Roxy's first time away from home and we were both nervous, but Helen was an excellent host. She made Roxy immediately feel welcome and comfortable and she sent me lots of photos to reassure me that all was ok. I would definitely be happy for Helen look after Roxy again. Thank you Helen!”
“We’re so pleased we found Melissa to look after Lotus. We were quite nervous at first due to some past bad experiences with dog care, but she completely put our minds at ease. Lotus clearly had an amazing time, made two new best friends, and was so well cared for. Melissa kept us updated with messages about their adventures, which really reassured us while we were away. She followed all our care instructions perfectly and went above and beyond. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs, and Lotus was absolutely spoilt. We’ll definitely be booking with her again, it’s such a relief to know we can go away without worrying. Truly 5-star care. Highly recommended!”
“We left our dog Nacho with Maria and her family for a weekend and they did amazing job! We were getting updated a few times a day with plenty photos and videos, Maria did exactly as directed for care after Nacho,no problems .Lovely family, would highly recommend! X”
About: I’ve spent my career working with dogs and have over 15 years of hands on experience caring for them in a variety of professional roles. My background includes working in boarding kennels, serving as a Local Authority Dog Enforcement Officer, and most recently as a Professional Live Body Detection Dog Handler. These roles have given me the opportunity to work with dogs of every breed, size, age and personality, and have helped me build a calm, confident approach to caring for them. I’m confident handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages and temperaments. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, snuggling on the sofa or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy and well cared for. I’m also happy to administer oral medication and follow any specific instructions to keep their routine as normal as possible. What sets me apart is my understanding of dog behaviour and body language. Through years of professional experience, I’ve learned how to recognise when a dog is feeling relaxed, excited, anxious or uncomfortable, allowing me to respond appropriately and help them feel safe and secure. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and those with additional needs. I understand the importance of patience, consistency and gentle care, and I always take the time to get to know each dog's individual personality and needs. Your dog's safety, happiness and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll treat your dog with the same love, care and respect I would my own. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your dog is in experienced, reliable and caring hands. I'm currently available full time and have a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. From September, I'll be working full time, but I'll continue to offer pet care on the weekends, where I'll have dedicated time to give your dog the care, exercise and affection they deserve. I always make sure every pet receives my full attention and stays happy, safe and comfortable while in my care. I will take the time to get to know each dog's routine, personality and individual needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress free. I will always follow your instructions, including feeding routines, exercise requirements, medication schedules and any behavioural or medical needs. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment with access to a front garden for quick toilet breaks. As the front garden is not fully enclosed, I will never allow dogs off lead there. Your dog's safety is my top priority, so all outdoor time will be closely supervised. Dogs staying with me will receive regular walks tailored to their age, breed and energy level, along with plenty of play, companionship and enrichment indoors. I'll ask you about their usual routine, favourite walking routes, favourite treats and toys, any dislikes, allergies or medical conditions, and how they interact with other people, dogs and animals while out on walks. You're welcome to bring your dog's own lead, collar or harness, along with their bed or blanket, favourite toys and anything that smells like home to help them settle in and feel relaxed. For safety, dogs will always remain on lead when out walking until we've built trust and I know their recall and behaviour well. I'll also ask to see that your dog is up to date with their vaccinations, flea and worming treatments. I'll make sure I have your veterinary details and emergency contact information before your dog's stay, so I'm fully prepared should they ever be needed. My priority is to provide a safe, calm and caring environment where both you and your dog feel completely confident and comfortable. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe and receiving the very best care.
“Indy had a great time with Sophie. It was the first time she'd stayed overnight but settled in really well. Sophie sent us some pics and video from their lovely walks and kept us up to date. Would highly recommend.”
“Kat was amazing, this was our first time leaving kevin with anyone who wasnt family. She kept us up to date with photos and made us feel so comfortable leaving him with her!”
“Adam and summer did a phenomenal job being super understanding of all klopps needs and took a non judgmental approach . Klopp came back calm and relaxed . And got spoilt with many blankets . thank you . 🐶🐾”

“This is the first time Oakley had been away from home and we were extremely anxious. We shouldn't have been as he was well looked after and fitted right in with her own dog.”

“Gail is the perfect cat sitter! This was the first time we had used this service. She went above and beyond looking after my little man. Daily updates and photos gave peace of mind while we were away. Came home to a happy cat that had been well looked after. We will happily rebook again! Thanks Gail.”
“Our cat, Lev, has had another wonderful time with Laura. She is the most reliable of individuals who gives our cat her undivided attention. Seeing how content he is during our time away is so reassuring. The visits are never rushed and communication is fantastic. We couldn't ask for more.”
“Cheryl is extremely professional and a huge help when last minute I had to go away and one of my cats took ill before I left. She did all his medication and checked in on him regularly. It was a great relief. Even after the booking she messaged to check up on him.”
“Lilly was great when caring for my cat, Frank. He was well feed and taken care of while I was away on a trip. He was a very happy boy when I got back and there was still food in the bowl for him. I would absolutely recommend Lilly for taking care of your furry friends ”
About: I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and temperaments, from shy and quiet cats to more confident and energetic ones. I provide calm, reliable care with a focus on keeping pets comfortable in their usual environment and routine. I am DBS checked, insured and pet first aid trained, and I always aim to give owners peace of mind through regular updates and dependable care
“Laura was absolutely fab!! It was our first time leaving our girls, and we felt so good knowing Laura was there. She came round to find out everything about the girls beforehand and asked lots of questions. We got sent lots of photos and videos that kept us in the loop. We will absolutely be booking with Laura again!”
“Hannah did another wonderful job of looking after our puss , he used to be a rather nervous cat , but now he is happy and settled with Hannah which is lovely . Thanks Laura and John ”
“Fay was absolutely fantastic with Albert! She came to meet us before and completely understood Albert's needs. I would recommend Fay to anyone who is looking for dog care she deserves 5 stars!”
“I was a bit nervous as I’ve never used a pet sitter before and Gaia is my first pet. We had communicated online for a couple of days and Sarah was so helpful and informative. She then came round a few weeks before the booking to meet Gaia, myself and see around my home. This definitely helped my nerves but naturally they were still there. However, I had nothing to worry about as Sarah was more brilliant than I imagined. Firstly, she’s extremely lovely but she also was quickly tuned in to Gaia’s behaviour/personality. She happily followed any instructions I gave (Gaia’s routine); her communication was fantastic and most importantly to me, Sarah looked after my home & cat as if they were her own. I’m so over the moon with the service she provided and am definitely booking with her again. Thank you Sarah! X”
About: 🖤 I have 2 labrador’s at home so I am no stranger to larger dogs. I am welcome to any dogs/cats and I am always happy to help. My dogs are ones that get excited seeing other dogs on walks so if your dog is like that it isn’t a problem as I can handle the situation accordingly and won’t be startled by a pull on the lead. I have a puppy so I am very prepared for any hyper dogs and I know that a good way to tire my dog out is a game of catch and a good walk. I am a part time waitress having most weekdays free and only working a few hours in the evenings. I do work most weekends but if I was desperately needed time off is simple to book so depending on the situation I am more than able to ask for that. I will always have availability all day mon/tue and also available until 5pm wed/thurs. For weekends my rota changes so i won’t always have the same availability each weekend but I will add it to my profiles calendar about a week or so in advance. At someone else’s home I will always ask what they are comfortable with and will make sure to be respectful of your wishes. If a dog is ever at my home I have a large back garden which is fenced and if your dog is friendly I also have 2 cuddly labrador’s to keep them company.

“Our dog had a great time with Kate. She was so flexible on timings, allowing us to drop him and pick him up when suited us. And he had a wonderful time. He was so excited each day when he realised he was going to her house. He loved playing with Kate’s dogs. And it was really reassuring to receive regular updates and photos from Kate. She was also great during the meet and greet we did. Thanks Kate, we will definitely be using you again!”
“Lola absolutely loves coming to doggie day care! She gets so excited to go every time and never wants to leave, sometimes even to the point she has to be carried out the house because she refuses to move! She’s so well looked after there and is always completely knackered when she comes home. Highly recommend”

Being around animals makes me happy. I left school and went to an agriculture college where I gained a degree In Equine science.

About: I always said that I preferred dogs over people when I was a child… and it’s still true today. Myself & my fiancé have rescued 3 beautiful pooches over the years, giving us a huge understanding of dogs with varying personalities and traits. Your dog will be safe, loved, and truly understood in my hands. Dogs aren’t just pets to me - they’re family. In our home is myself (Hi I’m Kate 👋), my partner James and our 2 lovely small rescue pooches. I will be solely looking after your dog for: House Sitting, Dog Walking, Drop-in Visits and Doggy Day Care. As my partner works daytimes. However, if your dog is booked to stay in our home for Boarding, my partner will be looking after your pooch too - evenings and weekend. He is also a true dog lover and has grown up with dogs all his life. 🐕🦺 What I Specialise In: • Small dog care • Rescue dog understanding • Nervous, anxious, reactivity, or special quirks • Medication management and experience with chronic health issues (our beautiful dog Benji lived with cancer for 18 months, therefore I’m use to regular vet visits and administering medication) • Long-term stays: I have regularly looked after our previous neighbour’s dog, often for up to 3 weeks • High prey-drive dogs • Managing allergies • Supporting behaviour challenges like lead reactivity • Gentle, positive and understanding care 🏡 Home life: Your dog should hopefully feel right at home in our home. • Large, fully enclosed garden with 6ft fencing, perfect for zoomies • Dogs are welcome on the furniture • Dog-friendly environment • Playtime with my 2 dogs, walks and lots of affection Please see the about me section below 😊 I am currently at home daily, therefore your dog won’t be left alone. I will check beforehand if your dog can be left at home at all (in case I nip to the local shop etc) - If they can’t, don’t worry, they won’t be left. When my partner is off during the weekends, we like to go for longer dog walks. This includes the beach or large parks. I will always walk your dog on lead for safety. We have 2 gorgeous rescue dogs. Opal (around 5 1/2 years old). She’s a mixed breed, Romanian street dog rescue. Very quirky, fun and super clever. Niblet - our newest fluffball, (around 2 years old). A tiny, friendly Chinese street dog rescue (possibly Shih Tzu/Poodle cross). Incredibly playful and silly. Both my dogs are neutered / spayed and good with other dogs. Sadly unable to take raw fed dogs. Please feel free to ask any questions.

About: I run my own local dog walking business and specialise in small, carefully matched group walks. I prefer keeping my groups relaxed and chilled, so every dog gets proper attention, plenty of sniffing time and the chance to actually enjoy their walk without being lost in a huge pack. I’ve also have experience working within a dog rescue and have experience caring for deaf, blind and elderly dogs, as well as dogs who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I love getting to know each dog’s individual personality and quirks, and I’ll always make sure they’re placed with dogs who genuinely suit them. As a lifelong dog owner myself, I know how nerve-racking it can be trusting someone else with your dog. I’m reliable, attentive and always happy to send photo updates, because I know owners love seeing that their dog is safe, happy and having an adventure. I currently offer dog walks on Wednesdays and Fridays, usually during the morning. In warmer weather, I prioritise earlier walks where possible so dogs can enjoy themselves safely and comfortably before the hottest part of the day. I keep my availability limited so I can give each dog reliable, unrushed care. I am canine first aid trained and carry a first aid kit on walks. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, temperament, triggers and individual needs on solo walks initially. Dogs are carefully matched for small group walks, and I never place a dog into a group unless I’m confident they’ll be comfortable. I use secure leads and equipment, keep owners updated, and always put safety before squeezing in extra dogs.

About: Hi, I’m Lewis from Southport. I provide calm, reliable one-to-one dog walking, pet sitting and drop-in visits with a strong focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable and well cared for in their usual routine. I have over five years of experience caring for dogs and pets, along with a Level 2 Diploma in Animal Care. I am DBS checked, fully insured and pet first aid trained. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities and energy levels, including younger dogs who enjoy more exercise and older dogs who may prefer slower, calmer walks. I understand that every dog has their own routine and individual needs, so I always aim to provide patient, personalised care and make sure each dog feels relaxed, safe and happy during walks and visits. I particularly enjoy providing solo walks and calm one-to-one care rather than large group walks, as this allows me to build trust with each dog and give them my full attention. I take pride in being dependable, friendly and professional, and I always try to keep owners updated with messages and photos for extra peace of mind. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, slower paced strolls or simply having company and care while you’re away, I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel happy, settled and comfortable. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I provide reliable one-to-one dog walking, pet sitting and home visits across Southport, with a focus on keeping pets comfortable in their normal routine. I aim to be flexible where possible and understand that every pet has different needs, energy levels and routines. Whether a dog enjoys longer walks and exercise or prefers slower paced walks and companionship, I always try to provide calm, patient and personalised care. Your pet’s safety, comfort and wellbeing are always my priority. I provide calm, one-to-one care and take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality and needs. I am DBS checked, insured and pet first aid trained, and I always aim to create a safe, relaxed and positive environment during walks and visits. For pet sitting and drop-in visits, I care for pets within their own home environment where they are most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I understand how important routine and reassurance can be, especially for pets who may feel anxious when their owners are away. I also offer a free meet and greet before bookings so both owners and pets can feel comfortable, ask questions and make sure the service is the right fit for their needs.

I can do morning, lunch and evening animal walks I have a fenced garden that has lots do for animals. They will love it plus the house needs work so we allow the freedom of the animals
About: 🖤 I have 2 labrador’s at home so I am no stranger to larger dogs. I am welcome to any dogs/cats and I am always happy to help. My dogs are ones that get excited seeing other dogs on walks so if your dog is like that it isn’t a problem as I can handle the situation accordingly and won’t be startled by a pull on the lead. I have a puppy so I am very prepared for any hyper dogs and I know that a good way to tire my dog out is a game of catch and a good walk. I am a part time waitress having most weekdays free and only working a few hours in the evenings. I do work most weekends but if I was desperately needed time off is simple to book so depending on the situation I am more than able to ask for that. I will always have availability all day mon/tue and also available until 5pm wed/thurs. For weekends my rota changes so i won’t always have the same availability each weekend but I will add it to my profiles calendar about a week or so in advance. At someone else’s home I will always ask what they are comfortable with and will make sure to be respectful of your wishes. If a dog is ever at my home I have a large back garden which is fenced and if your dog is friendly I also have 2 cuddly labrador’s to keep them company.

About: I have been an animal lover since I was a child, and have cared for various animals throughout my life. Although I am new to Rover, I have always been the go-to person to care for family and friends pets, and always treat them as my own. I have experience looking after different dog breeds of varying ages with different energy levels, temperaments and particular needs. If I have the opportunity to spend time with dogs I will take it, even on my travels I will visit a dog rescue or care for the stray dogs. I have a Labrador named Daisy who is 13 years old and treat her like my child, so rest assured I know the importance of caring for your pup! I am currently working part-time meaning I have a flexible schedule. I am available Monday mornings and afternoons, Tuesday early mornings and afternoons, Wednesday and Thursday before 9am and after 3pm. Weekends are more flexible as I am off two days and alternate a 4 hour shift on a Friday/Saturday so have plenty of time. I live with my mum in a house which has gates at the front and side, and a fenced garden. I have a 13 year old Labrador who is very gentle and friendly.
“We had a great experience with Ashleigh and would happily book again. We were kept updated with messages and photos and our dog had a great weekend playing with Theo! Thank you for taking such good care of Finn!”
“Sarge absolutely loved his time with Lauren, he made himself at home straight away and Lauren sent lots of pupdates, it was so reassuring to know that Sarge was comfortable and being well looked after. I wish I lived more locally because I’d have a dog sitter for life with Lauren if I could. Thank you so much!”
“Jacqueline was amazing!! She took such good care of our big dog Dante, attending to his needs. She sent lots of photos which was great. Communication was brilliant and we would definitely be booking with Jacqueline again!!”
“Oreo recently stayed with Karen and Paul for 12 nights. She was well cared for in a home-from-home environment in a lovely setting. I was sent updates on how she was doing, including pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Karen again when we next need a sitter. Thanks again, Karen and Paul!”
“It was Roxy's first time away from home and we were both nervous, but Helen was an excellent host. She made Roxy immediately feel welcome and comfortable and she sent me lots of photos to reassure me that all was ok. I would definitely be happy for Helen look after Roxy again. Thank you Helen!”
About: I’ve spent my career working with dogs and have over 15 years of hands on experience caring for them in a variety of professional roles. My background includes working in boarding kennels, serving as a Local Authority Dog Enforcement Officer, and most recently as a Professional Live Body Detection Dog Handler. These roles have given me the opportunity to work with dogs of every breed, size, age and personality, and have helped me build a calm, confident approach to caring for them. I’m confident handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages and temperaments. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, snuggling on the sofa or simply sticking to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy and well cared for. I’m also happy to administer oral medication and follow any specific instructions to keep their routine as normal as possible. What sets me apart is my understanding of dog behaviour and body language. Through years of professional experience, I’ve learned how to recognise when a dog is feeling relaxed, excited, anxious or uncomfortable, allowing me to respond appropriately and help them feel safe and secure. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and those with additional needs. I understand the importance of patience, consistency and gentle care, and I always take the time to get to know each dog's individual personality and needs. Your dog's safety, happiness and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll treat your dog with the same love, care and respect I would my own. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your dog is in experienced, reliable and caring hands. I'm currently available full time and have a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. From September, I'll be working full time, but I'll continue to offer pet care on the weekends, where I'll have dedicated time to give your dog the care, exercise and affection they deserve. I always make sure every pet receives my full attention and stays happy, safe and comfortable while in my care. I will take the time to get to know each dog's routine, personality and individual needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress free. I will always follow your instructions, including feeding routines, exercise requirements, medication schedules and any behavioural or medical needs. I live in a clean, comfortable apartment with access to a front garden for quick toilet breaks. As the front garden is not fully enclosed, I will never allow dogs off lead there. Your dog's safety is my top priority, so all outdoor time will be closely supervised. Dogs staying with me will receive regular walks tailored to their age, breed and energy level, along with plenty of play, companionship and enrichment indoors. I'll ask you about their usual routine, favourite walking routes, favourite treats and toys, any dislikes, allergies or medical conditions, and how they interact with other people, dogs and animals while out on walks. You're welcome to bring your dog's own lead, collar or harness, along with their bed or blanket, favourite toys and anything that smells like home to help them settle in and feel relaxed. For safety, dogs will always remain on lead when out walking until we've built trust and I know their recall and behaviour well. I'll also ask to see that your dog is up to date with their vaccinations, flea and worming treatments. I'll make sure I have your veterinary details and emergency contact information before your dog's stay, so I'm fully prepared should they ever be needed. My priority is to provide a safe, calm and caring environment where both you and your dog feel completely confident and comfortable. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe and receiving the very best care.
