“My dog went to caitlin for 2 nights earlier this week, after an initial meet and greet a few days before. She asked lots of questions to get as much information about cody before his stay, to get to know his routines, and to make it more comfortable for him. She provided updates with photos of him on walks etc and just chilling, reassuring me that he felt comfortable in their home and in their company. Would let him stay again.”
About: Hi, I’m Keri! 👋 I am a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a busy, pet-filled household in South Africa, and I've been living here in the UK for the last few years. From massive, lovable Rottweilers and energetic German Shepherds to gentle Maltese Poodles, Labradors, and rescue cats, I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. My background includes caring for a wide range of dog breeds and cats, many of which were rescues, and each with unique personalities and needs. This experience has given me the ability to quickly adapt and provide tailored care for any pet. I know how tough it can be to leave your furry family members behind, so my absolute priority is to provide a safe, comfortable, and affectionate environment where they can thrive until you get back. I currently work in a hybrid setting. This means that I have the flexibility to work from the comfort of your pets home to keep them company during the day. Alternatively, I'm available to sleep in Thursday to Monday or do evening check-ins during the week. For me, exceptional pet care comes down to consistency, safety, and open communication. Every pet has a unique personality and history, especially rescues, and I easily adapt my approach to make them feel comfortable and happy. * **Secure Environment:** I have a fully secured garden with a 6-foot fence, offering a safe space for dogs to enjoy time outside. * **Respecting Routines:** I strictly mirror your pet's existing feeding, exercise, and sleep schedules to minimize separation anxiety. * **Safety & Security:** I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensure all gates and doors are secured, and keep dogs strictly on-leash during walks unless in a designated enclosed area. * **Peace of Mind:** I provide regular photo updates so you always know how they are doing. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a calm, structured environment filled with lots of love and cuddles, giving you total peace of mind while you are away.
“Luna stayed for 5 nights and was really well looked after. She can be a bit nervous, but settled in really quickly which was great to see. Samantha made her feel right at home. We got regular photos and videos throughout, which was reassuring and showed she was happy and comfortable. She really enjoyed her stay. Would happily use again and recommend.”
“Honey has stayed with Michael for the third time and this time for almost two weeks! He’s been absolutely amazing all the way through Honeys stay! He’s been sending daily messages with photos of Honey, pupdates of what they’ve been doing, how she was getting on etc. I’m so happy I’ve found Michel on rover and I couldn’t recommend him enough! I felt so at ease knowing that Michael was looking after my baby❤️ I can tell how much he loves looking after dogs and that is what makes Michael so special! Honey absolutely adores him and I could see the special bond they both build❤️ I’m super grateful for his commitment and love for animals ❤️ what a genuine, good person🙌 I cannot recommend Michael enough! Honey will be back for sure ❤️”
“If I could give Bianca and Chloe 100 stars it still wouldn’t be enough. Absolutely fantastic boarders. I could tell they loved my Lennie as much as I do. So much communication, lots of photos and videos to put my mind at rest. I’ve used a few boarders with Rover before but none have compared to Bianca and Chloe. My number 1 from now on if I have to leave Lennie with a boarded. Lennie bonded so well with them and their dog, Otis. It was like leaving him with a member of my own family. I cannot thank them enough for looking after my little boy 🥰”
“Sara was amazing with pufi, she made him feel so loved and appreciated welcomed him with open arms and gave him the best care whilst I was away, pufi was enjoying his time throughout his stay with Sara being very playful and loving. I will definitely choose Sara for the future to take care of my puppy 😊😊😊”
“Zaria was very professional, she obviously loves dogs and we received updates of Cody's stay. We can recommend her service's and will definitely use her in the future if we need a dog sitter again.”
About: I’ve had Lola (working cocker spaniel) since a puppy for the last 6 years and have loved every second with her. She wins the ‘wildest and craziest dog’ award in many people’s eyes, so no level of energy from your dog will be too much for us (we also love a chilled afternoon). I am a teacher so very very available during school holidays and weekends. I am also DBS checked. I have looked over a variety of different dogs over the years and treat them just like my own. There will only ever be Lola and your dog, so they will receive a lot of attention and be part of the family. We have a nice sized house with lots of rooms if they wish to take themselves away and a fenced garden that they can potter around during the day. We also live 2 minutes from 3 parks, so will be walked daily either on or off lead (down to your preference). Feel free to message with any other requests or queries and I will get back to you :) On my available days - it is either on weekends or during the school holidays. This means I can be home as much as needed. Our routine will consist of lots of sensory play during the day (my dog loves hide and seek). Lots of cuddles on the sofa and either road walks or trip to the park (your preference). I have a fenced back garden and lots of rooms for your dog to chill in. We have room for a crate, dog bed or have beds they can sleep on if desired
About: Hi, I'm John Noden! I've grown up with dogs my entire life on a farm, surrounded by Border Collies and Labradors. My profile photo is with Tag, one of the Border Collies I was lucky enough to grow up with. I've experienced caring for dogs from playful puppies right through to 16 years old, giving me an understanding of their needs at every stage of life. I'm an active, outdoorsy person, so your dog will enjoy plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation. Whether they love adventures or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I live in Springmount Mill Apartments in Stockport, where regular toilet breaks are quick and easy. I also work from home two days a week and can often be flexible with those days, meaning your dog will have lots of company and attention. While I hope to have a dog of my own one day, caring for other people's dogs is the perfect balance for now. I'll treat your dog like they're part of the family and keep you updated throughout their stay so you can relax knowing they're in safe hands. I work from home two days a week in a 3D design role, so I’ll be around for plenty of company, toilet breaks, playtime, and attention. I do have occasional Teams meetings, but I can plan my schedule around your dog’s needs. I’m available from around 8:30am through to the evening on weekdays, with overnight stays also available. I can often have your dog stay from the evening before to make things easier. I live in a secure second-floor flat at Springmount Mill in Stockport. I have a small balcony which is safely fenced off with bamboo panels, and I’m happy to make sure it’s not accessed if needed. I can provide a comfortable and safe space for your dog and can fit a crate in my flat if your dog uses one. I’ll always follow your instructions and adapt my home to make sure your dog feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for.
“This was our first time boarding with Palash as our regular boarders were unavailable. Palash was absolutely amazing and took care of our dog very well. He was also very accommodating with a last moment change in pick up schedule. Our dog had a wonderful time and we will definitely go back in future.”
“Ashley was great!! Really accommodating and made everything so easy and was so lovely so felt relaxed leaving Bonnie with her. Would highly recommend. She sent lots of cute photos and kept me updated. Bonnie enjoyed her stay and I would definitely book with again. Thank you so much Ashley!”
“Booked last minute due to being let down personally, quick reliable communication, kept me updated the whole time. Ariel my dog loved being there, instantly felt at ease. Very friendly professional would use every single time I need somebody now thank you so much xxxx”
“Chrissie and her family took such good care of Pablo. He went out on lovely walks with her two dogs and son! Chrissie kept me up to date with photos of Pablo which was very reassuring! Thanks for taking such good care of him! Definitely recommend!”
“Wonderful service from Carol for my two small dogs at very short notice. Superb communication from the start and a lovely warm welcome. Carol’s love for dogs is clear to see. My girls stayed for 3 nights and came back very happy. Would not hesitate to use Carol again xx”
“Linda looked after our Jackhuahua, Bella, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We received constant photo pupdates which gave us complete peace of mind, and it was clear Bella was having the best time in Linda’s lovely home. She came back happy, relaxed, and well looked after. We’ll definitely be booking with Linda again - highly recommend!”
“First booking and not our last From first contacting Karen, to arranging a visit and throughout Fíonns stay we are so delighted to have found her and her partner. It’s obvious the experience they have and their love of animals - she picked up on my anxiety immediately and really helped me to calm down - Fíonn has clearly had the best time - and I think he will miss them all lots - thanks Karen so much. Xxx”
About: Hi, I’m Lauren, a qualified veterinary nurse with over 19 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small animals. Working in veterinary practice has given me extensive experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I am confident administering medications, monitoring pets with ongoing health conditions, and recognising when an animal may need extra attention or veterinary care. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be worrying, so I aim to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply a quiet companion, I tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, nervous animals, and those requiring medication or special diets. Regular updates, photos, and messages are provided so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well looked after. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust. I treat every pet as if they were my own and pride myself on providing reliable, professional, and compassionate care. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I’m currently working part time and my partner is in the fire service so your pet will never be on their own for more than 3 hours. I like to provide a home from home environment where no room is off limits and a big comfy sofa for cuddles. My garden is well secured. I do have artificial grass so if your pet is not used to this then extra walks a day will be done. If your pet is crate trained I am more than happy to use one. I have a 10 year old teacup Pomeranian and a 4 year old cat.
“Our Dachshund Roly has just spent 11 days with Sarah. We had pics/videos sent daily and we could clearly see how cared for he was. Sarah introduced him to family members and he even visited a 92 yr old Aunt in a care home. When he came home he was a very happy and content little dog who easily settled into his home easily and slept well too! Highly recommend.”
“Max absolutely loved his few days with Jenni, Biscuit & family! Came home one very happy and relaxed boy. He got lots of attention, walks and we had great picture updates whilst we were away. Thankyou!☺️”
“We had an amazing experience with ko! He took great care of Leo our German Shepard Dog. Leo was happy and well looked after. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“Claire dropped in on our kitten for 5 days whilst we were abroad and we couldn’t have chosen a better person. She kept us updated every day and judging by the photos Kai seemed to love her! Thank you so much Claire!”
About: I have been caring for cats for most of my life as a lifelong cat owner and animal lover. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routines, and comfort levels, and I always take time to get to know them properly. I offer drop-in visits and sitting services, and I’m happy to follow your cat’s usual routine exactly as instructed, including feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime, and giving them company if they enjoy attention—or quiet space if they prefer it. I’m calm, patient, and reliable, and I’m used to caring for cats of all ages, including shy or independent cats. I always make sure your home is respected and secure while you’re away. You can expect regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Elsa was fantastic - I would definitely book her again! Completely reliable, plus she sent me updates and pictures of my cat while I was away. I would give more than 5 stars if I could!”
“Sarah made me feel super relaxed about leaving my key with someone and going away. Her messages made me laugh and feel at ease, will use her again next time I go away. Thank you Sarah!”
“Zoë is our regular cat sitter and has looked after Flora over several visits this year. She is reliable and great at communicating with us and Flora loves her. We never hesitate about leaving Flora to Zoë’s care. Thank you Zoë x”
About: I've been around cats ever since I first met my now wife 15 years ago. I am now owned by two 11 year old tuxedo cats called Bruce and Sidney and they are our pride and joy. Sidney was diagnosed diabetic a few years ago (thankfully he is currently in remission) so I do have experience with insulin injections if needed.
“Another great service from Amy, who always takes such wonderful care of my cat. This is the sixth time I’ve booked with her, and I never have to worry about a thing because I know my cat is in safe hands. Thank you so much, Amy! Nica will definitely be looking forward to seeing you again soon. 💕”
“Amy provides a brilliant service. She takes her time to build rapport with the cats she looks after and doesn’t rush during visits. She has an attention to detail with administering medication and special diets. I can highly recommend her. ”
“Amazing service from Mary! I was kept updated fully on how my cat was whilst in Mary's care and she took the time at our meet and greet beforehand to talk through everything and make sure she had everything needed to look after my cat fully. I received plenty of photos and you can tell this is a passion as well as a job for Mary. 😍😍😍”

“We contacted Val on short notice and she couldn't have been better. Thoroughly impressed with her professional and friendly approach. No issues at all and we got thorough updates after each visit with some lovely pictures which was really appreciated. ”
“Ellie was brilliant with Della. As a newish rescue she’s a little scared around new people but Ellie was great looking after her for the week. Lots of pictures and updates every day, and she was v amenable to Dell’s sassy behaviour and helping to find her toys! Thanks Ellie! ”
“I had a very last-minute cancellation from another sitter on Rover (boo!) and Peter stepped in to save the day (yay!). I am very grateful to Peter for his help! He was very proactive setting up a meeting, and came round promptly to meet me, and my cat - The Kumquat. He's a really lovely and very genuinely friendly and smiley guy, who put me at ease immediately. Peter made it very easy to know The 'Quat was going to be in good hands, and within 24 hours of contacting Peter, we had an agreement and a booking in place. While I was away, Peter sent me.pics every day, and after a couple of days he had clearly made good friends with The 'Quat. I was reassured at every step that he was following my instructions and doing everything to look after The 'Quat exactly as I'd said. I didn't have any need to ask for more info or any changes in what was being done, but I'm certain that if there had been any problems or if I had needed to steer something or ask for additional stuff while I was away, Peter would have been ready and able to help. When I got home my house was absolutely spotless and had obviously been looked after and respected well. All in all, a faultless experience having Peter looking after my house and my pet. I'm absolutely going to be booking him again. Thanks very much!!!”
About: While I don't have cats of my own, I've had the opportunity to look after several cats I've rescued over the years, nurturing them to health and ensuring their adoption. I've also boarded cats for friends and family and we've always had the best time (the cats too of course!)
“Ailsa looked after Lucy on really short notice. She came to do a meet and greet on an extremely quick timescale and looked after our dog for us a couple of days later. Our dog can be a handful and has very particular needs and Ailsa really understood what we needed and what our dog needed too. She really put us at ease and did a fantastic job. We came home to a very chilled out and tired dog who seemed to have had a great time. She kept us updated and sent photos too, which was very reassuring for us as this is the first time we have left her with anyone that isn’t family. Will definitely be using again and I would highly recommend.”

“Lovely lady and her chihuahua minnie is the cutest. Shes very laid back and made me feel at ease from day 1 even though my chihuahua pablo can be quite demanding and has some behavioural issue. She updated me daily and pablo came home very happy. Would definitely use her again. Thankyou ????”
About: I’m a lifelong dog and cat owner with many years of experience caring for pets. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and sitting services in Stockport. I’m calm, reliable, and patient, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, and I always follow your routine closely. You can expect dependable care, plenty of attention, and regular updates while you’re away. As I am retired, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time and flexibility throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to give pets regular attention, walks, feeding, and companionship without rushing. I take safety, trust, and comfort very seriously in all pet care services I provide. I always follow owners’ instructions carefully and make sure pets are kept secure, safe, and comfortable at all times. For dog walking, I use safe walking practices, keep dogs on leads unless instructed otherwise, and avoid unsafe areas. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I ensure your home is respected, secure, and left exactly as found. I am calm, reliable, and attentive, and I take time to understand each pet’s needs and routine. I will also provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you are away.
About: I’ve had a cockapoo back home who taught me how much love, patience, and consistency dogs need. Since moving to the UK, I’ve looked after different dogs, always making sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for. I work from home full-time, so your dog will rarely be left alone. I’m around throughout the day for walks, play, and company. My weekends are flexible too, which means extra time for longer walks or little park picnics. I live alone in a one-bedroom apartment, which means your dog gets a calm, dedicated space with my full attention. We’re right next to a garden and walking area, and the flat has lots of light and windows, so dogs feel settled and at ease.
“Liv and Daniel were great with Samwise - really flexible and at short notice too. Samwise had a great time and communication was great, they sent plenty of updates throughout the day. Thanks very much! Definitely recommend this sitter :)”
“Carol was great, arranged a meet and greet beforehand so our dog and us were comfortable. Sent loads of updates to reassure us our dog was having a good time. Would book again!”
“Will and Sam were great with woody my 2 year old chocolate lab. I was anxious as woody had never stayed with anyone before. They kept me updated throughout the day he eventually settled and was very well cared for.”
About: Since I was a teenager I've been taking care of my grandparents cocker spaniel Alfie for up to a week at at time, and some weekends. Recently I've bought a house and now have a 9 month old puppy of my own called Enzo. Raising him has given me experience with puppies, as well as the knowledge I had from caring for Alfie. Between the two of them they've thrown every hurdle at me so I feel well prepared to look after your dog too. It can be difficult organising last minute care, which is why I offer same-day requests and more than happy to pick up if needed. I'm available for boarding most weekends as we are in with our own pup anyway. As I work from home on Fridays and Mondays I can look after your pup both Friday and Sunday night so that's no worry. We have a large fenced garden (which Enzo loves sniffing around) and I have a spare dog crate in case your dog needs crating overnight and you have forgotten one. Enzo is crate trained but if your pup is okay sleeping in a bed/sofa in the living room that is fine too.
“Benji is quite nervous around new people but I could instantly tell he was relaxed and comfortable when spending the day at James’s place. He has been spoilt with attention and walks and I received updates throughout the day. I would highly recommend James and Benji is looking forward to his next visit ☺️”
About: I know everyone says this but we really love dogs and having had challenges finding suitable care for our own dog wanted to offer our home to others. We like to think of ourselves as offering your dog a holiday while you enjoy yours. Our Vizsla, Ivy, has given us four years of fun, challenges and far too many face licks. She loves company so taking in new pooches is as good for her as it is for us. We offer a spacious home and garden with daily walks, enrichment activities, access to the furniture and plenty of cuddles. We will adapt to your preferences and try and keep whatever routine or habits are unique to them - after all this is meant to be fun for them too! We are happy to consider dogs who may need additional help. Ivy suffers from separation anxiety so alone time is rare and she also requires daily medication. We know it can therefore be an additional struggle finding that home from home which we can offer. We have experience of medium to large breed’s primarily but happy to consider smaller companions. Our household consists of myself, my wife, our toddler, Ivy and a cat. We do like to meet out borders before confirming a stay just to ensure the dynamics suit. We have flexible work schedules so primarily one of us is always working from home. We are out at least once per day with Ivy and therefore find an additional dog fits in seamlessly with our routine. We like to do a pre meet to make sure the environment suits your dogs needs. We treat every doggy visitor as if it’s our own, and yes that does mean they can sleep on the bed.
“Lauren if I could give you more stars I would! You were amazing with George and have complete trust in you, loved the updates and photos and could see how much George loved being with you!”
“Amy looked after our little girl whist we went to a movie and had a date day. Molly had a great time and Amy took great care of her. It was our 2nd time using Amy and we will be back! Thanks Amy”
“Jenni is just amazing with our dog Jazz! She walks her regularly and has her for doggy daycare. Jazz absolutely loved her stay with her and her dog Biscuit! Jenni sends lots of photos and is very reassuring if you are worried about leaving your dog for the first time. Would recommend her without hesitation.”
“So grateful to have found Ros to look after Teddy for the day. It was the first time Teddy was in doggy daycare and he can be an anxious dog but I needn’t have worried. Teddy had a great time with Ros and Georgie, having lots of playtime with his new doggie friend. Ros gave me updates throughout the day and clearly looked after and cared for Teddy. Can’t recommend her enough and already have made another booking!”

About: Having grown up surrounded by dogs I really miss having my own. I have 3 children and my boys love to help walk, play & care for dogs too. I am a keen runner so I have come back on Rover to offer a dog running service for those dogs that need more than a walk round the block. I run most evenings and from September will be able to offer a running dog service in the daytime too, I run upto 15k weekdays and longer runs on a Sunday. Being a full time mum I feel I can offer boarding anytime. Now the children are back to school I can offer walking services anytime throughout the week after 9 am. I have a lovely fenced garden front and back so lots of space and security for your dog. I live by a lovely park with lots of field space but love going on more adventurous walks too.

I am a huge animal lover and prior to having my cats i have owned dogs, rabbits and turtles as well so i have experience with most animals! I’m currently working full time as an Engineer however i tend to work from home 3 days a week so I during those days i will have more flexibility to care for your pets! On normal weekdays when i’m in the office i am happy to petsit before and after my working hours I have 2 cats at home so any pets that I care for in my home will absolutely need to be friendly with cats. I have a fully fenced garden (with cat fence toppers so my cats can’t jump over), and i also live very near a large field which is perfect for walks. When caring for pets in their own home, I am always cautious when entering/leaving that no pets can escape. I assume that all cats i care for are indoor cats unless specifically told otherwise.

Alternatively, I'm available to sleep in Thursday to Monday or do evening check-ins during the week. For me, exceptional pet care comes down to consistency, safety, and open communication. Every pet has a unique personality and history, especially rescues, and I easily adapt my approach to make them feel comfortable and happy. * **Secure Environment:** I have a fully secured garden with a 6-foot fence, offering a safe space for dogs to enjoy time outside. * **Respecting Routines:** I strictly mirror your pet's existing feeding, exercise, and sleep schedules to minimize separation anxiety. * **Safety & Security:** I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensure all gates and doors are secured, and keep dogs strictly on-leash during walks unless in a designated enclosed area. * **Peace of Mind:** I provide regular photo updates so you always know how they are doing. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a calm, structured environment filled with lots of love and cuddles, giving you total peace of mind while you are away.
“Amy looked after our dog Sally for two days, and I can highly recommend her for dog walking. She is professional, communicative, and kept us updated after each walk. We felt completely at ease knowing Sally was in such capable hands.”
About: I’ve had a cockapoo back home who taught me how much love, patience, and consistency dogs need. Since moving to the UK, I’ve looked after different dogs, always making sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for. I work from home full-time, so your dog will rarely be left alone. I’m around throughout the day for walks, play, and company. My weekends are flexible too, which means extra time for longer walks or little park picnics. I live alone in a one-bedroom apartment, which means your dog gets a calm, dedicated space with my full attention. We’re right next to a garden and walking area, and the flat has lots of light and windows, so dogs feel settled and at ease.
“Peter is so good with my fearful and reactive rescue dog. He has done so much research every time we meet and is incredibly patient. Sasha loved her walk today. I can't thank him enough for building her confidence and trust that other people can be kind.”

About: From being a teenager I have looked after family and neighbours pets when needed. Anything from birds & hamsters to cats & dogs, I have looked after it. I have previously owned a cat and currently own a bulldog. I work from home in Offerton most of the time and am looking for somw furry friends to help fill the gaps between meetings or outside of work hours. Weekly routine varies week on week but can be flexible. When walking your dog I will ensure they are on lead and always carry a spare lead for emergencies. I will discuss any triggers, behaviours or other requirements your dog has before taking them to make sure your fur baby has the best experience.
“Chloe’s communication is great, my pup always looks like he’s had a fun walk from the photos, she makes sure he’s settled after the walk before she leaves and he sleeps all day afterwards! Definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve had Lola (working cocker spaniel) since a puppy for the last 6 years and have loved every second with her. She wins the ‘wildest and craziest dog’ award in many people’s eyes, so no level of energy from your dog will be too much for us (we also love a chilled afternoon). I am a teacher so very very available during school holidays and weekends. I am also DBS checked. I have looked over a variety of different dogs over the years and treat them just like my own. There will only ever be Lola and your dog, so they will receive a lot of attention and be part of the family. We have a nice sized house with lots of rooms if they wish to take themselves away and a fenced garden that they can potter around during the day. We also live 2 minutes from 3 parks, so will be walked daily either on or off lead (down to your preference). Feel free to message with any other requests or queries and I will get back to you :) On my available days - it is either on weekends or during the school holidays. This means I can be home as much as needed. Our routine will consist of lots of sensory play during the day (my dog loves hide and seek). Lots of cuddles on the sofa and either road walks or trip to the park (your preference). I have a fenced back garden and lots of rooms for your dog to chill in. We have room for a crate, dog bed or have beds they can sleep on if desired
About: As a part time kennel hand I walk, feed, bathe and administer medications to dogs! I have a small garden ideal for puppies and elderly dogs as well as a local park for the more active ones. Dogs will not be allowed off lead on walks however I do often take long scenic walks (2hrs+) and would be happy to have your pup with me if they are up for the challenge. There will always be a person home with your pet and I can promise a minimum of 3 let outs/walks a day (individual needs can be discussed.) They will have plenty of play time and my sofa is their sofa. I have a fenced garden and a room your pet can have to themselves if they would like a place to hide (I'm looking at you cat owners.) Lots of toys are about and I can accommodate a crate if your pet is accustomed to sleeping in one.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since my university days, looking after a Great British Bulldog, a Coton de Tuléar, and several Welsh Collies. These very different breeds taught me how to handle strong, stubborn personalities, gentle companion dogs, and intelligent working breeds with high energy. I’m confident with a wide range of temperaments and always adapt my approach to what each dog needs to feel safe, calm, and happy. I currently have full availability and can be flexible around your pet’s routine. Whether you need early‑morning walks, daytime drop‑ins, or evening care, I’m able to fit around your schedule. I’m also available at short notice and happy to discuss regular bookings or one‑off visits depending on what works best for you and your pet. I focus on keeping their routine exactly as you’ve set it. I follow feeding times, walk schedules, and any training you’re working on, and I make sure your pet feels calm and secure in their familiar environment.
About: I can look after or care for your dog when you are at work. I used to have a couple of Jack Russells and some years ago a couple of border collies. All from puppies. I work from home now and live by myself and would love some company. I have a garden. My son has a dog Luna, Pixie is my twin sister’s dog and Tomaquet & Moocher were my Jack Russells. I am flexible on days as I am home every day including evenings and weekends. Able to take out for walks. I have a fenced garden. Happy to have 2 dogs from the same family. Also doggy day care is available. I have a Chi-Poo (Chihuahua mixed with a toy poodle). I started to use Rover myself as a customer last year as occasionally I have to go to Nottingham for a day with work, but started to care for other people's dogs earlier this year. I am getting really booked up so if you could confirm your booking as soon as you are able to after the meet and greet so that I can guarantee the booking for your doggie woggie that would be great. I like to arrange a meet and greet first though anyway and do that at my house in Woodsmoor so that your pooch can get used to a new environment and feel more familiar. I have looked after a variety of dogs including rescue dogs who need socialising with other dogs, taller dogs who can open door handles, greedy dogs who need to be given only the right amount of food so I have to watch that they don’t pinch other dogs food, down to the real, cheeky, sweet ones who are mischievous but you can’t help loving them as they are furiously wagging their tail 😂😂😂 I have looked after puppies, dogs with attitudes and the ones who like do things on their terms but I know what I can handle with boundaries. If I or Minnie are not happy with a dog I will say so but to be honest this has only happened a couple of times. I need to know your furbaby will be comfortable too xx I work from home so can care for dogs in my house. I don’t put my dog in kennels as she is not an outside kennel dog. Minnie shares the bed with me and I am happy for your special pooch to do the same. However if your dog is crate trained I can also accommodate that. I live near Mirlees fields, but also like going to Cale Green Park, Bramhall Park, Bruntwood Park and Vernon Park. I have a fenced in garden and always take dogs out on a lead. I love looking after dogs in my own house. My dog likes running around the garden. I have loads of fields nearby so if your dog is ok off the lead they can have a run around. I use dog seats in my car when travelling to ensure that all the doggies are kept safe!
“Erin took my dog Lilith for daily walks and she was incredibly punctual and gave her exactly what she needed, Lilith is a staffy/boxer and is still in the process of learning and Erin took great care of her and helped walk her perfectly, she took all of my advice and was respectful to the process which we are implementing with our dog and put them into her walks. Erin was also incredibly well mannered and respectful through the messages and was also quick to reply, she also kept me up to date with my dog during the day with photos which was incredibly nice, I could not recommended Erin any more, she was perfect and if you are looking for any services I would highly recommend her.”

“My dog went to caitlin for 2 nights earlier this week, after an initial meet and greet a few days before. She asked lots of questions to get as much information about cody before his stay, to get to know his routines, and to make it more comfortable for him. She provided updates with photos of him on walks etc and just chilling, reassuring me that he felt comfortable in their home and in their company. Would let him stay again.”
About: Hi, I’m Keri! 👋 I am a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a busy, pet-filled household in South Africa, and I've been living here in the UK for the last few years.

“Honey has stayed with Michael for the third time and this time for almost two weeks! He’s been absolutely amazing all the way through Honeys stay! He’s been sending daily messages with photos of Honey, pupdates of what they’ve been doing, how she was getting on etc. I’m so happy I’ve found Michel on rover and I couldn’t recommend him enough! I felt so at ease knowing that Michael was looking after my baby❤️ I can tell how much he loves looking after dogs and that is what makes Michael so special! Honey absolutely adores him and I could see the special bond they both build❤️ I’m super grateful for his commitment and love for animals ❤️ what a genuine, good person🙌 I cannot recommend Michael enough! Honey will be back for sure ❤️”
“If I could give Bianca and Chloe 100 stars it still wouldn’t be enough. Absolutely fantastic boarders. I could tell they loved my Lennie as much as I do. So much communication, lots of photos and videos to put my mind at rest. I’ve used a few boarders with Rover before but none have compared to Bianca and Chloe. My number 1 from now on if I have to leave Lennie with a boarded. Lennie bonded so well with them and their dog, Otis. It was like leaving him with a member of my own family. I cannot thank them enough for looking after my little boy 🥰”

About: We’ve been lucky to share our lives with two wonderful dogs growing up. We had a Jack Russell who was part of our family for 13 years and a Weimaraner who was with us for 11 years. We then had a Jack Russel cross with a Manchester Terrier for 18 years and have cared for them all throughout every stage of their lives, this has given us valuable experience and a real understanding of what dogs need to feel happy, comfortable, and loved. As a teacher, I’m fortunate to have all school holidays and weekends free, giving me plenty of time to provide your dog with the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after while you’re away. We provide safe, loving care in our secure home and enclosed garden, or we’re happy to care for your dog in the comfort of their own home, keeping their routine familiar and stress-free.

“My cat was happy with Afshin. He was fed and taken care well. I didn't find anxiety issues with my cat during the stay and after coming back. Frequent communication with my pet cat kept him active and out of anxiety. Also, Afshin has good experience with cat services. I am happy that I have found a trust worthy cat sitter and can leave him with Afshin in future if required. Thanks Afshin!”
“Flo was brilliant, stepping in and taking Frankie at the last minute. Frankie clearly had a great time with Flo and she took great care of her. Communication was quick and simple & I would definitely book again!”
