“Friendly and responsive to messages, we just needed a quick visit to break up the time our dog was left alone. We will definitely book with Kerenza again, reasonable pricing for the service 😌”
“First time using Donna and she’s been brilliant. She fed the cats messaging us before giving them extra food as one was extra greedy eating the others. She also changed the litter, would recommend!”
“Devon was absolutely brilliant with Kuda. He was reliable, calm, and clearly confident with dogs, which put me at ease straight away. Kuda was well cared for, happy, and relaxed during the visits, and communication throughout was great. I really appreciated the updates and the care shown — it’s clear Devon genuinely loves what he does. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.”
“I can throughly recommend Yeru for looking after your pet. She came and spent an hour of her own time, to meet Mopsy (he doesn’t like strangers) and see if they would get along. He loved her as soon as they met, so I knew he would be okay. I went through everything Yeru needed to know about his care, and felt confident she would be okay with him. She did everything I asked of her, was clean and tidy and respectful of my property. On many days, she also spent longer with him then the 30 minutes that Rover allowed, I can only guess they were having fun together, and lost track of time. From the video and pictures she sent me on a twice daily basis, I could see my dog was happy and well. She’s polite and punctual and a really nice person, and I really hope she will be available the next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Alice and her Partner have been absolutely brilliant. They have looked after Winnie so well, even taken her out for longer and to the Pub for tea with them! They genuinely love your dog like you would want them to and they have handled her well when she can be a bit tricky around Cats! I can’t recommend them enough.”
“Yifan was great, appreciated the updates on the dogs and the photos. They clearly really liked her. Very helpful with how flexible she was meaning we could push back our booking till the evening since were going out later. Great communication and felt very comfortable having her pop in to keep our dogs company for an hour and help them stay cool.”
“I can’t recommend Dolly enough. She looked after our 4 cats and was amazing. She quickly got their personalities and needs and we got plenty of updates and could always contact her easily. Really caring and professional. ”
About: I have a dog of my own and would love to care for yours as is it best to have someone who actually cares! Iv had previous experiences with dogs, as ive joined some volunteer rescue walks some years ago. I easily adjust to animals and can assess their needs, as well is give them lots of love and care. My dog is a senior so i have some experience with giving oral medication and ear drops. Im also very good with energetic dogs and can provide engaging activities at many points of the day such as exercise. Currently, i am on summer holiday, so i have plenty of time for short notice bookings. Im heading off to uni in September, and looking for more opportunities along the way! I take my dog on daily walks, as well as providing him with medication as he’s a senior. like eardrops teeth care and various spa treatments. His food is perfectly portioned with nutrients and a balanced diet.
About: Hello! I am a Nottingham Trent University student raising money for Meningitis Research Foundation. I grew up with dogs (Jack Russell terriers, a golden lab, and a German pointer mix) and I was a dog walker for about a year many years ago. I am also a runner, so if you would prefer I take your dogs for a run, just let me know! I’d love to get to know you and your doggies :) I currently work part time at an art studio and am studying for my masters in fine arts at NTU, but my schooling is quite flexible and my work is less than 20 hours per week so I am able to find time around these responsibilities. For walks I care for the dogs by allowing them to stop and explore when they want and by bringing water and a small bowl for if they get thirsty on a longer walk. I also will take the dogs for a run if that is something you would like. For dog sitting I will let the pups out every couple hours or when they want, I will feed them when needed, fix them with clean water, take them for a walk at least once per day, and of course play with them and give them lots of pets
About: I started walking my friend’s dog when I was small, which gave me experience in taking care of a dog and ensuring it has a good walking experience. I’m currently a full-time sociology student studying in university but my course workload isn’t heavy, so I have plenty of time for dog care jobs. For bordering service, I have a large grassy garden that provides a comfortable and safe space for dogs to run around. There are also plenty of green areas near my home, which are great for walking dogs.
About: I owned two dogs when I was in Italy. I was responsible for caring for my dog since I was 13. My dog lived 15 years and the second is now 12 but he is in Italy with my sister. We went for walks in the forest and loved going to the park to play with other dogs. I have experience in walking different sizes of dogs. I also have 8 years experience in looking after guinea pigs. I have 2 cats that can be separated from pets boarding in a different room I am currently off work until the middle of July, so I will be at home most of the day. This means I can provide regular walks, plenty of playtime, toilet breaks, feeding, medication if needed, and lots of attention and companionship. Your pet will not be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care throughout the day. Lots of cuddles and stimulation. Always supervised and have a pet camera. I make sure to follow the pets routine and keep owner up to date with messages and pictures
“Super grateful for Hiu Yee doing a drop in visit given that we booked so last minute. She sent photos whilst she visited Koda and made us feel that Koda was well looked after - thank you!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and would be very happy to have the opportunity to care for other people’s pets. I grew up with a Border Collie, although I was quite young at the time, so my experience then was mostly playing with and helping to train her. My granmother also owned a dog grooming salon where I spent alot of time watching her while she worked. My boyfriend has much more recent experience with dogs. He grew up with an English Springer Spaniel and was his main caretaker, regularly taking him on walks and jogs and being involved in his day-to-day care. Sadly, he passed away a couple of years ago. We’ve recently moved into a flat together, right opposite a lovely park, and while we aren’t currently in a position to have a pet of our own, we’d absolutely love the chance to spend time with and look after other people’s pets. We’re both caring, responsible and happy to give pets plenty of attention, exercise and company. We’re both university students with fairly flexible schedules. Over the summer we’re working part-time, and during term time we’re usually only away for a few hours at a time, so there will always be someone at home. We’re also early risers and already like going for daily walks, so it would be lovely to have a dog come along with us! I’m studying Animal & Environmental Biology too, so animals are definitely something I’m interested in. We’d treat your pets just like we’d want someone to treat ours. We’d stick to their normal routine and make sure they’re comfortable and happy while you’re away. For walks, we’d keep them on lead unless you’ve told us otherwise, and we’d always follow any instructions you give us about feeding, routines or anything else they need. We’re also happy to send you photos and updates while you’re away! As we live right opposite a park, we’re in a great spot for walks and drop-ins.

Laura showed such care and attention towards our three pusscats when we recently booked her. We've used Laura twice now, and I wouldn't hesitate to rebook her again. She has a clear love of animals, and the updates we received were such peace of mind whilst we were away. Thanks so much! :-)
I cannot be more happy with the service Katherine provides. As a nervous cat owner, she made me feel reassured that they were being well loved and looked after. I received detailed updates and lots of photos of my cats, i will definitely want her to look after my cats in the future. Highly recommend
Yifan took great care of our cat Muffin for a few days. Muffin is very timid and takes a while to warm up to people but they were best friends in no time! It was amazing to see how much care and love she had for our cat. All instructions were followed and everything kept clean and tidy. The communication was excellent - we were kept informed throughout and with every visit came lots of pictures and notes on how Muffin was getting on. Muffin was well looked after, had lots of play and cuddles. She was really relaxed and truly happy with Yifan! We will gladly rebook with Yifan. She was reliable, on time and followed Muffin’s schedule. We appreciate all the love and care :D
Just got back from a lovely weekend away xx Mr Tibbs (my late sisters cat ) has been very well looked after in the manor hes been acustomed to SPOILT💙 thank you so mich for the updates videos and photos hes so specail to us, so it was great not to worring about him 💙
Leah was an incredible cat sitter and really pleased with the care my cats received. She was really accommodating to our needs and her experience as a sitter really shined through whenever we had any questions. We had never used Rover before and wanted to meet Leah at the house beforehand to show her around and she was happy to oblige. During the booking period Leah was very responsive, sending detailed reports/updates on the cats with each visit along with photos which really helped put my mind at ease. Came back to a clean home and some very happy cats! 100% will book again when we next need a sitter. Highly recommend!!
Hannah was fab. This was the longest we’d left our cats with someone who wasn’t a family member and they took to Hannah very quickly. She was communicative and reliable and did a few additional requests during the booking which was very much appreciated. I would recommend Hannah!

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.
Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.
Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Nottingham pet parents with similar pet households.
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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Nottingham choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
