“Eve has been a professional from start to finish, punctual and proactive in communication re drop-ins on my two older dogs. Eve's support made my family feel at ease knowing our dogs are in safe hands. Cannot recommend Eve enough and for sure will book further support when will be going away.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since i was a young child. I am happy to deal with all types of dogs and am available for dog walking, sitting and in home visits to feed and let the dogs out. I can also look after cats and have been a cat owner in the past too. I do flexible local delivery so looking after the dog or cat comes first and i can organise deliveries around that. So first of all i would agree which days and times i'm offering my services then stick to it as a priority. I only do care within other peoples homes. I have a dbs for added security. I always use items provided by the pet owner to keep the dog familiar with it's environment.
“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.”
“Jo was amazing stepping in at the lat minute. She was lovely in person and took on all the information about my cats again. I received great updates after each visit and a lovely note left on my return. Thank you Jobfor the caring way in which you looked after my cats and left their feeding area clean - I really appreciate that.”
“I would highly recommend Rebecca. She kept me updated to date on how my cat was doing and sent some lovely pictures of her playing. This was very reassuring as it was my first time leaving my cat.”
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 looking for this to become a more permanent role for myself and to eventually transfer over to this being my main occupation. 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.
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I provide a calm, loving, non-smoking home with a large, fully secure garden where dogs can safely play and relax.I also live close to several parks and green spaces, so your dog will enjoy safe and enjoyable walks every day. As a healthcare assistant and Health & Social Care student, I am caring, responsible, and attentive to every pet's individual needs. I am confident caring for puppies, senior pets, and pets that need medication or extra support. I am happy to follow your pet's usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. As a mum of four children who have grown up around animals, I understand the importance of patience, kindness, and creating a safe environment. I will send regular photo updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved like part of the family. I am a full-time Health & Social Care student with a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of time, attention, and care for your pet.

I always make sure pets get regular walks, playtime, cuddles, and follow their usual routine to help them feel relaxed and at home. Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities.

About: About me: My rescue Dutch Shepherd passed recently at 14 after 12 years together. He was my family but he had reactivity and towards the end needed a lot of care around illness and dementia. Raising and training him has given me so much love for dogs along with a good amount of experience around dog body language (his and other dogs), training and general situational awareness. I also learned so much about clear requests and firm boundaries while advocating for him. Because of that he was able to have so many human friends and dog besties despite the reactivity. And I've done lots of walks and sits for those doggy friends over the years. I'm not ready to have another dog or cat myself, but I'd love to care for other folks' furry family. Things to be aware of Boarding: I have an elderly cat, so to board at my home, your dog will need to be good with cats. Unless your dog currently lives with cats I'll ask for a meet and greet at my home so that they can meet and I can assess. House sitting: I will accept house sitting visits outside of my set area if it is for multiple nights. There's no effective way to set things up that way on this site so please get in touch. I also can do longer than a week house sits for folks that I have done sits for previously. I work from home part time- Monday to Wednesday with plenty of flexibility around those working days. I can set my hours on those days as needed. And my days off are completely mine to schedule. The owner is always the best resource for how to care for their pet. My first port of call will be to go through questions related to behaviour and care, to make sure that I can meet everything that's needed. Aside from that I'm confident walking dogs of any size. Even if you're happy for your dog to be off lead, I will keep them on lead for the first few walks until I'm confident that they will recall to me consistently. Im happy working with spicy kitties who need extra time to build trust. My home is spacious and has a walled garden. I still have bowls, fountains, scratching posts, toys and crates from my previous pets that I can bring out of storage as needed.
“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 ”
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.
“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!”
About: As a dedicated pet lover and proud owner of a lively Maltese named Luca, I understand the joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. Since welcoming Luca, I’ve discovered the true happiness animals add to my day-to-day life, and I often find myself connecting more with pets than people. Caring for Luca has taught me patience, understanding, and the importance of nurturing a pet's unique personality and needs. This deep connection drives my motivation to become a pet sitter, where I can extend the same level of love and care to other pets as I do with my own. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while they’re away. With me, your pets will not only be in trusted hands but will feel like they are a part of my own family. Pet care is woven seamlessly into my week, making it just as essential (and enjoyable) as my morning coffee! Working from home means Luca is my little “coworker” most days, keeping me company and reminding me to take breaks (which usually means playtime or cuddles). Tuesdays and Wednesdays are my "away days," but I've made sure those are full of extra treats, comfy spots, and toys for Luca to enjoy while I'm onsite. On all other days, I’m here to provide all the attention he could want, from belly rubs to outdoor adventures. For other pets I’d be caring for, I bring the same level of attention and love. I work around their schedules, whether it’s feeding time, walks, or just time to snuggle. My daily routine with pets is as fun and flexible as they need, with Luca as the best assistant anyone could ask for! Living in a cozy one-bedroom home with a fenced garden gives me a perfect setup for pet care! The garden is a safe spot where pets can roam freely and explore without any worry. I love that there are parks nearby, so daily walks and a change of scenery are always on the agenda—great for stretching legs and sniffing new scents. Inside, I make the space as welcoming as possible with comfy spots to lounge, plenty of toys, and some tasty treats for rewards or just to brighten their day. With Luca’s stash of toys and our little routines, pets here can enjoy a mix of indoor comfort and outdoor fun, all with a loving companion to keep them company. Whether they’re looking for playtime or just a quiet spot to relax, they’ll feel right at home!
“Shernai was great for Freddie. It was our first time using this app, so concerns and overprotective thoughts regarding Freddie were always on our mind. However Shernai dealt with all of them in the nicest way possible, making sure to send us updates regarding Freddie and his wellbeing, he loved her! She gave him the nicest cuddles. It was a spot on choice to select Shernai to take care of him, will definitely contact her in the future !”

I’m confident handling different routines and temperaments, and I treat every animal as if they were my own—ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work a regular 9–5 schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care for pets before and after work. I’m available for morning and evening walks, feeding, medication, and general care, ensuring pets stick to their normal routines. I’m attentive and reliable, and I plan my day around the animals’ needs so they feel comfortable, settled, and well looked after at all times. My garden is fenced. I have large living room and dining room,plenty of space for dogs to play. When I care for pets they spend time with my family and my dog. They never feel lonley
About: I have experience maintaining a pet’s routine to help them feel safe and secure, including regular exercise, playtime, and companionship. I’m attentive to signs of stress or illness and always prioritize a pet’s comfort and safety. I also understand the importance of keeping owners updated and following specific care instructions closely. I am currently mostly at home. Therefore, I have plenty of time to play with your loved furry friend and to prioritise his needs and safety. I always prioritise a pet’s safety, comfort, and routine, I live alone in a one bedroom apartment with a large balcony with hight walls and there are no kids or other dogs. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, habits, and any instructions provided so I can create a familiar and stress-free environment.

Eloise was absolutely wonderful with my cat! She took such great care of him, making sure his bowl was clean, spending time playing with him, and giving him plenty of cuddles and attention. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his wellbeing and made sure he was happy and comfortable while I was away. I really appreciated the consistent updates too, it gave me such peace of mind knowing how he was doing. Eloise was also very polite, reliable, and respectful. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy cat sitter. I’ll definitely be asking her to look after my cat again! 🐾❤️
We cannot recommend Jagoda enough, she was absolutely brilliant with our cat from start to finish. She provided regular updates every day with photos, which allowed us to enjoy our holiday without worry. She is very knowledgeable about what she does and clearly loves animals and this was reflected in every visit. She was attentive to my cats different needs and really bonded with her and got to know her personality. Jagoda also took in parcels for us which was a huge help. We had some last minute plan changes before and during the booking and she was so understanding, flexible and went above and beyond to help us out. She truly is amazing and we feel lucky to have found her. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring and genuinely lovely cat sitter. We will definitely be booking again in the future. Thank you so much x
Jo was amazing stepping in at the lat minute. She was lovely in person and took on all the information about my cats again. I received great updates after each visit and a lovely note left on my return. Thank you Jobfor the caring way in which you looked after my cats and left their feeding area clean - I really appreciate that.
Leon and Natasha were absolutely fab! For a very fussy owner and a very nervous cat they made sure my princess was comfortable and loved for the 2 weeks away. My girl warmed up to them both amazingly and gave her sapce when needed and lots of playtime. They were great with times and keeping us updated. I highly recommend them and will be sure to use them again when possible. Thank you again.
Thank you so much to Courtney for checking in on my two girls (cats) while I was celebrating my nephew’s 10th wedding anniversary in Rhodes. The cats seem very happy and healthy on my return. Thanks again for everything and putting my mind at rest that they were being looked after (even if you didn’t see much of them!)
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!

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.

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.
