“I would highly recommend Mia to anybody looking for someone to take care of their pets! My dog Dougall can be quite energetic and boisterous so I was really apprehensive when looking for someone to walk him when I returned to work full time. Mia’s calm and confident approach completely put my mind at ease and I knew from our first meet and greet that Dougall would be in safe hands with her. Mia is responsible, trustworthy and above all else a genuinely lovely person who clearly loves animals and enjoys taking care of those entrusted to her. Dougall is always so well looked after and so content when I get home from work and I can see from the regular updates I get that he’s had a really good, long walk which is exactly what he needs. I’m so happy we found Mia and I can’t thank her enough for everything she does!”


About: I am fully insured and have a Level 3 qualification in dog daycare and boarding, alongside being canine first aid trained. Your pup is in safe hands :) I am a full time dog boarder and walker (new to Rover) so your dog will have my full attention for the duration of its stay. I have a friendly chihuahua x jack russell named Neil who loves having a friend over to stay :) Your dog will have free roam of the house and a secured back garden for toilet breaks. I will follow their normal feeding and walk routine to make them as comfortable as possible

“Alice has been walking my dog Bruce for a number of weeks now and I feel totally relaxed knowing Alice is with him. She always updates me with pictures and how the walk has been and she’s such a polite, reliable and trustworthy lady who I would highly recommend to take care of your four legged animals.”


“Jeff is truly amazing at what he does. Both Oscar and Chester adore him, and my wife and I feel so comfortable knowing our fur babies are well looked after. Nothing is too much trouble for Jeff. He is kind, caring, and highly experienced in his work. I have always had issues with Oscar pulling while walking, making our walks more like an Olympic marathon. However, in just a week since Jeff has started, Oscar is now walking by my side and not interacting with other people or dogs, making the walks stress-free for both of us. Thank you, Jeff, for your incredible work!”


“Thank you for taking such good care of Scooby, he loves the long walks that you take him on and always looks so happy in the pictures. I appreciate the loving care and attention that you provide to my pup, it’s very comforting knowing he’s in good hands when I’m away 😊”

About: Hi! I’m a 24-year-old animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I grew up in a home filled with pets—including a Cane Corso and cats—and I’ve been around animals my whole life. My mum also worked as a dog walker, and I often joined her, learning early on how to handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Although I don’t have pets of my own right now, I miss being around animals and would love to give yours the same care and attention they’d get at home. Whether it’s a playful walk, relaxed companionship, or extra cuddles, your pet will be in safe and loving hands with me. I’m punctual, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. Let’s have a chat—I’d love to meet your furry friend! 🐾 As a mum and a university student, my schedule is flexible and well-organised—I’m used to balancing responsibilities and making sure everything runs smoothly. I’ll always communicate clearly and work with you to find times that suit both of us and your pets routine. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise creating a calm, familiar, and safe environment. I take time to understand each pets routine, preferences, and any specific needs or behaviours. I always follow feeding instructions, clean litter trays regularly, and give plenty of gentle interaction—whether that’s play, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I respect your home, keep things tidy, and ensure doors and windows are secure at all times. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I also provide regular updates with photos or messages to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Being a naturally organised and caring person, I treat every home and every pet with the same care I’d want for my own.

zaynab b.
“Zaynab was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter for my 11-year-old cat. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely cared about animals and took her responsibilities seriously. My cat can be a bit particular due to her age, but Zaynab was patient, attentive, and clearly experienced with older pets. She kept me updated with photos and little notes, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a relaxed, happy cat and a spotless home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Zaynab to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and caring pet sitter!”
