“Lucy was a wonderful sitter for our two frenchies. They both need walking separately as one of them is reactive, and she was more than happy to accommodate their needs. She gave us regular updates and left the house clean and tidy for when we got back. I highly recommend Lucy to anyone needing a sitter!”

“Peyton was absolutely amazing!! Sammy was so happy and clearly well looked after. I didn’t have a single worry whilst away and would highly recommend her to anyone considering her as a sitter.”

“Devon has been great from start to finish. His communication was professional and timely, we promptly arranged a meet and greet which made me feel at ease leaving Scooby for the first time. Devon is really knowledgeable and took time to research my dogs unusual breed in order to give him the best care possible. Scooby was very happy when I returned which is a testament to Devon's level of care. Thank you Devon!”


“We can’t recommend Emilija highly enough. She has looked after our two dogs, Bailey and Mika, twice while my wife and I were away on holiday, and both times she was absolutely fantastic. She genuinely cares about the dogs, took the time to understand their routines and personalities, and kept us updated with lovely photos and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we returned, Bailey and Mika were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well looked after. It was obvious they had received lots of love, attention, and care. Emilija is kind, trustworthy, reliable, and a pleasure to deal with. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets as if they were her own.”


“We needed a dog sitter at short notice and were so lucky that Ellie was available. Kind, calm and caring, she looked after our very lively 5 month old puppy who certainly kept her busy! She took the time to come over and meet us before we booked and kept us informed throughout the time she was with him. We came home to a very settled, content and happy puppy. We will definitely be booking with Ellie again!”


About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always surrounded by dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I am a responsible, patient and caring animal lover who treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their beloved companions are safe, happy and well looked after. I personally provide all pet care services, ensuring every animal receives plenty of love, attention, exercise and individual care. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe and welcome while their owners are away. I work from home and have a flexible daily schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention and care to the pets entrusted to me. I will personally be responsible for all aspects of their care, including feeding, walking, supervision and ensuring their safety and comfort. I have a big house with very big garden. Pets will feel very comfortable and safe in my home environment. House has a green area in my estate plus I have plenty of parks surrounding me so I can take dogs for walks anytime.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my day-to-day life. I currently have a young greyhound puppy of my own, which has given me plenty of recent hands-on experience with puppy care, including toilet training, lead walking, building confidence, establishing routines and positive reinforcement. My family dog is now a senior, so I also have experience caring for older dogs and understand that they can require a gentler pace, extra patience and care tailored to their individual needs. I’m also a cat owner to my 3-year-old cat, Spot, who I’ve had since he was a kitten. This has given me experience with both kitten and adult cat care, so I’m very comfortable looking after both dogs and cats. Having pets of my own means I completely understand how important it is to trust the person caring for them. I’m patient, reliable and attentive, and I’ll always treat someone else’s pet as I would my own. I’m happy to follow their usual routines, accommodate individual needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection and reassurance while in my care. Pet care already plays a big part in my everyday routine as I have pets of my own, so fitting walks, drop-ins and pet sitting into my week comes very naturally. I’m organised and flexible with my time and will always make sure I have plenty of time for each pet, rather than rushing visits. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual feeding, walking and toilet routine wherever possible, as I know how important consistency can be for keeping them happy and settled. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow your instructions closely and respect their existing routine, environment and boundaries. I’ll take the time to get to know their personality and allow nervous or shy pets to approach me at their own pace. On walks, I’ll keep dogs securely on lead unless specifically agreed otherwise and pay close attention to their behaviour, surroundings and interactions with other dogs. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy and receiving plenty of attention and affection while they’re with me. 🐾
“Jacob was so fantastic and really put me at easy (me admittedly not being great about leaving my dog generally). Jacob stayed at our place and ensured he popped in to meet Ziggy before. Jacob was very respectful of our home and sent us lots of updates and photos on Ziggy. Would highly recommend:)”

“We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter! Leaving our two dogs, Milo and Bruno, and our two cats, Rio and Fritz, behind is always a bit stressful, but Chloé made the entire experience completely worry-free from day one. As soon as we met her at the meet and greet, we knew our boys would be in very good hands. Pet Care: Our cats and dogs were instantly comfortable and spoiled with love, cuddles, and great attention to their routines. We received regular photo updates and messages, which let us actually relax and enjoy our time away. Home Care: We came home to a spotless, tidy, and well-cared-for house. It was obvious Chloé treated our home with as much respect as her own. Communication: Chloé was reliable, trustworthy, and a pleasure to communicate with the whole time. We would rebook Chloé in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet and house sitter!”

“Abby is a sweet young lady! she arrive early so we could provide instructions & care for our girls. Our two small dogs took to her immediately as she meet them with attention & love. We were visiting Nottingham and wanted time to visit the town without the girls. Abby provided love & care! I would highly recommend Abby to care for your animals. 💕”


About: I have 4 cats at my parents home and my family that I stay with in South Africa have 5 dogs I have lived in these homes up until recently so I’m used to looking after many crazy animals at once! Also, i have done some experience cat sitting and dog sitting for other people for multiple nights. I know how to inject diabetic cats, give specific food to pets and dealing with all ages from pups / kittens to senior animals. Years of experience is hard to define as technically I have 14 years experience of looking after pets but only counting external I have about 3-4 years. I am a full time student and part time online tutor. Both of these are very flexible and don’t take up much time in my week meaning I always have time for your furry friends. The tutoring is online as well so I can work from anywhere meaning even if when you need me coincides with my work I can do both at once, my students absolutely love saying hi to the different pets I look after. I will spend a lot of the time playing or cuddling with your pet or just keeping an eye on them, I will always ask for any risks with the pet e.g. you’ve got a curious cat who likes the jump out of windows I will always make sure the windows are shut (my cats do this all the time). I can easily control dogs on a lead or if necessary crate them.
About: Hi, I'm Sam. I'm a third psychology student with a deep love for dogs. I have two dogs of my own, and caring for them while my parents work far from home has been a big part of my life. I've also had experience dog sitting for people in my town. Missing my own dogs while I'm away at university made me realize how much I enjoy being around them. That's why I'm offering dog sitting services in Nottingham. I hope to help others and build meaningful connections with both pets and their owners over the next four years. If you're looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, I'd love to help! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to balance my commitments while providing attentive care to the dogs I sit. I plan my day around their needs, ensuring they get plenty of attention, regular walks, meals, and companionship. The natural gaps in my schedule give me time to focus on each dog individually, making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. It’s a routine that fits seamlessly into my day while also giving me a refreshing break and the chance to spend quality time with the dogs, which I find both enjoyable and rewarding. When I care for a pet owner's home while dog sitting, I make sure to follow a few key responsibilities. First, I always discuss any specific house rules the owner has, like areas that are off-limits or special instructions for their space. I focus on cleanliness by keeping the home tidy, cleaning up after the dog, and ensuring that food and water bowls are always clean. Security is also a priority for me, so I make sure all doors and windows are locked when I leave the house to keep the owner's property safe. If the owner asks, I collect the mail or packages and store them in a safe place. I also take care of any plants that need watering or other maintenance tasks. Communication is important, so I keep the pet owner updated with messages or photos of their dog, helping them feel connected while they're away. Lastly, I always know how to reach the pet owner or a trusted friend in case of any emergencies related to the pet or the home. This way, I can ensure a positive experience for everyone involved.
About: My whole life has been revolving around animals. I have owned dogs since I was a baby and I have owned a cat for the last 15 years and have done multiple personal dog and cat sitting/walking throughout the last 5 years. I work full time but I have a flexible work start so can easily fit morning walking/drop in visits into my weekly schedule as well as all my evenings after 4pm. During weekends I am available for long walks as well as drop ins and overnight stays. I have a fenced garden and live 10 mins away from a large park which is perfect for long dog walks. The house has plenty of space for the animals to explore.
“A really positive experience. Sarah looked after our dog and house well. She followed our instructions regarding food and walks which is important to us. Sarah is friendly and communicated well. I'm happy to rebook.”

“I had to use this app to each out last minute to find a sitter, due to a cancellation, and I couldn’t be more happy. Andreia was great with my dogs, especially consider one of them is a bit of a nervous wreck. Have booked more dates with Andreia and using her as my new sitter. Highly recommend.”


About: Since being a little girl, I have found so much peace being among animals. I have owned nearly every furry under the sun (dogs, cats, rabbits, guineas, mice, hamsters and more!) and love the unique personality each animal has. I have a soft spot for rescues, most of my pets have been strays and love being able to show them that the world can be a good place with the right people in it! A few years of my working life was spent in a kennels and cattery, and have recently been running a Nature School for children, where we explore and care for wildlife, animals and the world around us. It has been great to pass on my love for the animal world, to the next generation. All ages and stages of life are welcome, from pups and kittens, right through to the OAPs - and the care I offer is tailored to each animal as an individual. I will ensure I follow your instructions and care plan to ensure everyone is as happy as they can be. I've spent my entire life working with animals and children - and yes maybe you do need to be a little crazy to do that! But I do thoroughly enjoy the chaos and pure love they bring everyday. I'd be honoured to care for your beloved pets, and give you peace of mind for when you can't be there. From July, I will be working from home, so can offer the flexibility you desire. I have my children's school run twice a day, so have ample time between 9am and 3.30pm to accommodate your furry friends. I will also be available most evenings for later visits and walks if required. Weekends I can also be flexible. My large car can fit any size dog in, so can drive to green spaces for walks if desired! I have a large tiered garden, consisting of artificial turf, a bark area and decking. The house is a detached 3 bed, with 2 downstairs sitting areas, so your pets have plenty to of space to choose where they feel most comfortable.During warm weather, dogs can access an outdoor animal friendly paddling pool, and our outside space has plenty of trees to provide natural shade and a cooler temperature.
About: With 10+ years of professional pet-care experience, I offer refined, reliable, and detail-focused dog handling. Every walk and visit is structured, calm, and personalised to your pet’s behaviour and needs. Expect attentive care, clear updates, and a consistently elevated standard of service designed for owners who want only the best for their pets. I structure my day around the pets I look after. Walks, feeding routines, medication, enrichment, and check-ins are all organised into my daily schedule. I offer pet care as a part-time role, which allows me to stay flexible and adjust my availability when requirements are communicated in advance. This ensures every dog receives focused, uninterrupted, and reassuring care. I regularly care for my own dog, Whiskey, a loving Labrador who has been part of our family for over 10 years. She moved with us all the way from India and truly is the best dog. She thrives on structure, so I manage her medication, follow a controlled diet plan, and maintain consistent daily routines. This experience has made me very comfortable providing organised, reliable care to dogs with similar needs.

About: I live on my own and own a very active Cockerpoo. I've looked after and taken friends and family dogs for around 10 years. I live next to woodthorpe Park which is ideal for your dog to have a adventure day ! If it's a case of me looking after your dog/dogs on there own then that is totally fine. I have family that would be more than happy looking after ziggy for a while if you dog isn't comfortable around others. I currently work part-time so, so have plenty of time to play with your dogs! I am available during most of the week and also weekends I have a fenced garden which has lots of grass and greenery to run around in. I also live close to woodthorpe park which is ideal for your dog to run around and have adventures.

About: Me and my partner, Myles, are lifelong dog lovers and the designated dog sitters for all of our family and friends, now looking to open our home up to more dogs. After losing our senior rescue chihuahua last year, our house feels very empty without the pitter patter of paws following us around! We have many years of experience with a vast array of breeds and ages and I have also previously volunteered at a doggy daycare centre. We really do just love dogs of all sizes, shapes, temperaments and age and we would love to take care of yours! Please send me a message for more info about me or if you have any questions. I work from home on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays and Myles works from home all week. We are free most evenings and weekends and available for long-term boarding We live in a semi detached house which your dog would have free roam of and a secure fenced off yard. We already have many dog beds and blankets for your dog to get comfy in, along with a few sofas and an armchair that they would be welcome to take a snooze on. Your dog will never be left alone in the house, we understand it may take time for some dogs to trust new people and we are experienced and knowledgeable on building up trust safely with new dogs. Your dog will never feel pressured by us, and in turn we hope this means you will trust us with your dogs too!

It’s never easy finding someone you trust when your dog is reactive to other dogs, but Daniel was fantastic. They looked after JoJo for daytime sitting and a few walks this week, handling everything with such calm, warm care. They were so accommodating with JoJo’s boundaries, kept us updated with great communication, and completely put our minds at ease. Thank you!! 😊

We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter! Leaving our two dogs, Milo and Bruno, and our two cats, Rio and Fritz, behind is always a bit stressful, but Chloé made the entire experience completely worry-free from day one. As soon as we met her at the meet and greet, we knew our boys would be in very good hands. Pet Care: Our cats and dogs were instantly comfortable and spoiled with love, cuddles, and great attention to their routines. We received regular photo updates and messages, which let us actually relax and enjoy our time away. Home Care: We came home to a spotless, tidy, and well-cared-for house. It was obvious Chloé treated our home with as much respect as her own. Communication: Chloé was reliable, trustworthy, and a pleasure to communicate with the whole time. We would rebook Chloé in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet and house sitter!

Malgorzata did a brilliant job with Oz. Very friendly and approachable and has a calm confidence about her. Oz was happy, tired (and that’s a good thing with him 😁) and perfectly content. House was in a perfect state and we would not hesitate to book her again. Thank you.

Ellie was amazing with the boys and they also loved her so much that they are looking into the spare bedroom for her every morning. Bacon is very fussy with food when we go away but he didn't miss even one meal! Ellie will be always the first person we contact when we need the boys to be taken care of while we are away!

Emilija was so helpful with our nervous rescue puppy. We wanted him to meet her beforehand and she accommodated the extra meet-ups. She was calm and patient. We were nervous about leaving him for 4 nights and him not wanting strangers to put him on the lead, but he warmed up to her quickly and she had him walking on the first day. She took her time to understand him, kept us updated and sent lots of pictures. We would definitely recommend Emilija and will be happy to leave Huxley with her again. She was respectful of our house and left it as she found it.

It was my first time leaving Saylee(my cat) alone so I was understandably nervous especially as she’s very shy/cautious around people and don’t” trust” easily. However I had anything to worry about.Evie came to meet Saylee a few days before I left on holiday and she took to Evie immediately. Evie provided constant feedback and photos of Saylee whilst I was away which really eased my mind. I came back to a very well fed,well looked after and happy little cat. I will 100% use Evie again.

This is the fourth time Tim & Laura have looked after Irvie at our house. They are a wonderful couple and it is clear that Irvie has the best time with them - lots of fun walks and cuddles. We can really relax when away as have full confidence in Irvie being well looked after and kept safe. Our house is always left so clean & tidy and they were kind enough to to water the plants too - they go above and beyond and I couldn’t recommend them enough.

Devon looked after our 5 month old whippet puppy for 3 nights at our house. We came back to a tidy house and a dog who behaved better than when we left him! Devon knows so much about dog behaviour and seemed happy to do some extra training while we were away. Our dog was very happy and has continued to be well behaved. Devon is a confident, respectful and trustworthy, and I’d very happily ask him to dog sit again.

Adam helped us out when our original dog sitter could no longer look after Casper for the day. With less than a days notice Adam confirmed to look after Casper and was happy to know all about him, and asked all the right questions. He was very punctual and commutation was great, also had lots of updates about Casper throughout the day. Again thank you so much for helping us out so last minute! Would definitely recommend.

Kate looked after our 4 month old whippet puppy for a week whilst we were abroad on holiday. She looked after him and the house very well, and he has been completely normal and content since we’ve been back which is a great sign. Kate is confident and relaxed with the puppy and with the responsibility of looking after both a house and a dog. Thanks Kate!

Sarah was wonderful looking after my big greyhound, Blossom, for the week. Blossom is very dog and cat reactive and has a few quirks, so it was important for me to find someone who'd be patient and who has experience with bigger dogs. As soon as I met Sarah, she put my mind at ease. Sarah is such a warm person and clearly loves animals. She sent me regular photos, videos, and daily summaries whilst she looked after Blossom, which was lovely and they clearly had a fab time. I'll definitely be booking Sarah again x

Dear Aastha, thank you so much for looking after Kev and staying at our home while we were on holiday in Spain. It was our first time leaving him for a whole week, and we were so nervous. Your calm, warm, and welcoming presence completely put our family at ease. You did an amazing job, and we truly appreciate it. We would love to have you watch Kev again in the future!

FAQs for House Sitting – Nottingham
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Nottingham is £33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £28 and £51 per night.
On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,182 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across the city of Nottingham. About 86% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.
Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Nottingham walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
House sitting is priced per night and generally includes an overnight stay. In the city of Nottingham, the price of house sitting can vary between £28 and £51 per night.
Just make sure you and your sitter agree on the actual hours they'll stay in your home before you accept the booking. Each sitter has their own routine, and some might suit your schedule better than others. Keep your messages on the Rover app for future reference.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a 'home base' service. Most sitters in Nottingham maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for 'WFH' sitters: Many sitters mention 'Work from Home' on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical 'away' windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
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 , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
