“Most definitely five stars and more, Louisa came to the rescue at very short notice to help with feeding a friends cat whilst she was in hospital. Louisa was amazingly helpful picking up cat food on route to meeting up and has been great at communicating after each visit. I would highly recommend Louisa and only wished we lived closer for her to help with our animals sitting needs too.”
About: Hi! We’re Leon and Natassha, a pet-loving couple with a passion for caring for animals. We know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and we’re committed to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment where your pets can feel happy and at home. 🐶🐱 We’re both currently on vacation in the UK for the next two months, so we have a very flexible schedule with no work commitments. This allows us to offer 24/7 care, including overnight stays and house sitting. We’re fully available to adapt to your pet’s routine and make sure they receive consistent attention, company, and care throughout the day and night. We care for pets in their own homes as if they were our own, making sure they stay in a familiar, safe, and stress-free environment while receiving plenty of love, attention, and respect. We follow their usual routines closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so everything feels consistent and comforting for them. Natassha loves taking photos, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of pictures to keep you informed and reassured while you’re away.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was five years old and have experience with hamsters, rabbits, dogs, and cats. I grew up with two Yorkshire Terriers, including one that needed regular medication and wound care due to skin allergies, and another who is now blind, teaching me the importance of patience and understanding a dog’s needs. I also care for my two rescue cats every day and am comfortable around both small and large dogs. I’m currently studying for my Level 2 Animal Care and Welfare qualification while working towards starting my own pet care business. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always aim to provide safe, loving, and reliable care. Family and friends trust me with all their animals and often say it’s what I was born to do. I’m currently a part time worker usually morning shifts 5-9/10 so I have plenty of time in the day Thursday-Monday to look after pets. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I am fully available. My messages are open for discussion. I prefer to visit dogs and cats in their own homes. I’m really looking for dog walking experience. I’m happy to offer a variety of services whilst at visits including simple pet grooming, litter tray cleaning, bringing in bins or post, playing with pets as well as cleaning garden. More on my services available please message me<3
“Lisa has looked after our dog Margot on several occasions - dropping in to see her when we have been out for long periods. This has sometimes been at short notice, which has been much appreciated. Lisa gives great updates, lots of notes and pictures and communication is always quick and easy. Margot loves Lisa and always has a great time. Would highly recommend Lisa to anyone!”
“I highly recommend Zuza for cat care! She kept in regular contact and sent me photos, which gave me great peace of mind. My cats looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. You can really tell she loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. I would definitely trust her again!”
“Rebecca looked after my cats at very short notice. She was amazing and my very shy cats responded brilliantly to her. Rebecca is a true ‘cat person’ and when we met for the first time , she was empathic and very organised. Thank you Rebecca, I would absolutely trust you to take care of my cats again!”
“Sabrina is excellent. Attentive, punctual, thoughtful - and goes beyond the extra mile, for example, closing the windows we'd left open for the weekend, as well as ensuring our kittens were ok, keeping us informed. Will be booking Sabrina again in the near future.”

About: I enjoy long adventurous walks & hikes with your pup! I have had family dogs and cats since a young child and always been heavily involved with the care process and training within the home since I was around 15/16. Since then I have gone on to care for friends and family members pets of all sizes, big dogs, cute cats and even some funny bunnies! I enjoy big outdoor walks and finding new exciting spaces for your woofers to sniff! I am also not new to close protection dogs and their specialty needs or exotic house cats such as Bengals and Maine coons. I can be available daily for your dogs needs!

I am more than happy to follow close and detailed instruction's provided by you or am happy and confident to provide exemplary care and take initiative to keep your pets and yourself satisfied.
“I would really recommend Briony, she was absolutely amazing with our Kitten Sooty. She sent me daily updates with photos which really put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my holiday without worry. I could tell from the updates that my cat was very comfortable with her. She is a lovely person and I will definitely book again in the future. X ”
“Ella was very responsive and reliable. She looked after our cat very well on her visits and let us know how she was each time. I would definitely book her in the future. Thanks, Ella!”
About: Hey, I’ve owned pets all my life, grew up with dogs and have owned my own dogs for 5 years from a puppy. I recently rescued a young dog called Nemo, who has issues with her mobility due to a club foot. I’d love to run a doggy day care full time in the future so I’m taking the first steps towards that goal opening my home out to others. I work from home so I’m available to look after dogs throughout the day, my job involves occasional travel but I will know about this in advance, should it be a problem. I am a single mum, with a young boy called Rory. I share custody of him with his Dad so my availability varies depending on where he is. He loves dogs, and is great with them, however a toddler, my two dogs and any additional would be a bit much for me! My dogs Archer and Nemo are friendly, they absolutely love the company of other dogs and they’re always been happy to share their home when we have looked after relatives animals before. Depending on times of drop off/pick up I’m happy to take the dogs on walks along with their normal daily walks, they would love it! I currently work from home, with a small amount of travel required, which I know about in advance and can arrange pet care around this. We have an enclosed garden, stone fences all around. There is a separate dog room, to ensure maximum safety (nothing gets left lying around in there!) I work from home, so, I am on hand to let them out to play/use the toilet, and play with them as well.
About: Growing up I’ve always been around dogs, from little chihuahua‘s to Great Danes. I frequently dog sit my grandparents yorkie when they go away, and shes old and a little reactive. I can confidently say I can care for any size dog, however if your pup is on the larger side and has reactivity issues Im not the sitter for you as I don’t have the experience or knowledge to safely care for your pup. That’s not to say big dogs are a complete no! As long as they’re friendly I’ll be happy to meet a few fur friend of any size I currently work Friday mornings part time, so plenty of time for your pets needs. Im flexible with how long I can spend with your pet, wether they need to be with me 24/7 (there is an option for them to be able to come to work with me, however it involves a lot of car travel. Please feel free to ask more about this!) or just need some company for an hour whilst your busy I currently have one cat, and shes very low maintenance. I get most of my experience from pet sitting for family members or volunteer work at shelters. I currently am able to pet sit in your own home and drop-ins for any animal, as well as solo walks for dogs (group walks can be discussed if the dogs know each other well or live together!) Your pet will be played with and loved, and above all, cared for

Rebecca looked after my cats at very short notice. She was amazing and my very shy cats responded brilliantly to her. Rebecca is a true ‘cat person’ and when we met for the first time , she was empathic and very organised. Thank you Rebecca, I would absolutely trust you to take care of my cats again!
Arabella is amazing! Veey happy with her service, it was the first time I booked her and O totally recommend her. Communication was fantastic and treated my cats amazingly well, my cats liked her. Always on time and followed my instructions. This is my first time using Roger and I could not be happier with this app, I will definitely keep using it and booking Arabella
I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! I was away on holiday for 10 days, and she took amazing care of my two cats, Grey and Tara. She kept me updated every single day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after. I came home to two relaxed, content cats and everything was just as I had left it. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Grey and Tara – I will definitely be booking you again in the future!
Oh, where to start… From the moment we met Adrienne and her husband, we felt they were the right people to look after our two cats. We booked home visits, and I can’t explain how happy we are. We received daily updates with pictures, and they played with the boys on every visit. I could tell the boys liked them very much (we all know animals can sense a good person!). This meant we could enjoy our holiday with complete peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone responsible and trustworthy, Adrienne is the one! We feel so lucky and pleased to have met Adrienne and her husband. We know that in the future, when we are away, our boys will be happy and very well looked after.
This was my first time leaving my cat so I was quite anxious. There was no need as Vicky was AMAZING! From the first communication to meeting her Vicky was really easy going, relaxed and friendly. She provided twice daily feeds and cleared Inez’s litter as well as spending time with her. I had regular updates and photos and it seems like Inez has really taken a shine to Vicky. I would absolutely book Vicky again if I went away. ☺️
Engin has been amazing with us. Our cat escaped some weeks before our holidays but we yet asked him to come just in case our cat came back. Unfortunately our cat is yet missing but Engin did a wonderful job checking every day and communicating what he was doing. 100% recommended!
Sabrina is excellent. Attentive, punctual, thoughtful - and goes beyond the extra mile, for example, closing the windows we'd left open for the weekend, as well as ensuring our kittens were ok, keeping us informed. Will be booking Sabrina again in the near future.
Lucy came for a meet and greet which was really lovely, I felt comfortable and confident she would take good care of our cat. We got detailed descriptions of each visit with photos, and a very happy cat. We would definitely ask Lucy to look after our cat again, thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Northampton on Rover is £14.95 per Visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 765 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Northampton. About 90% of Northampton sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
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.
