About: We have cared for dogs since we were young. We walked and cared for family pets and have helped with friend's dogs while they are on holiday. Being able to sit in your own home and provide day sits, walks or check ins. I adore animals and so do my family. My 17 and 19 year old sons also love helping me. We are active and love walks so your dog or other pets will be in good company. I have a fenced garden when caring for dogs in my own home and while caring for others pets at their home I am a member of the PVG scheme and have house sat before so have good references.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by cats and dogs, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’m currently a proud owner of three cats, aged 10, 8 and 8. Before them, I had five other cats, and I also shared 14 wonderful years with my toy terrier. Earlier in my life, I had another cat for 10 years. Having cared for pets of different ages and personalities, I understand that every animal has its own needs and routines. Some love playing and attention, while others prefer a little peace and quiet. I’m patient, attentive and happy to adapt to each pet’s personality. I know how much pets mean to their families, and how important it is to feel confident that they’re in good hands when you’re away. I’m new to Rover, but certainly not new to looking after animals! I’ll treat your pets with the same love, kindness and care I give my own. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily life, so looking after pets comes naturally to me. I have a flexible schedule and can arrange visits during the week and at weekends. I’m happy to help with regular feeding visits, dog walks, playtime or occasional care while you’re away. I understand how important it is for pets to keep their usual routines, so I’ll always do my best to work around their needs and your preferred times. As a lifelong pet owner, I know how important it is for animals to feel safe, comfortable and relaxed, especially when their family is away. When caring for pets in their own home, I always respect their familiar routines and follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, food, a clean environment and plenty of attention, depending on their individual needs. I’m particularly patient with shy cats and older pets who may need a gentler approach. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect as my own. I’m happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand and will keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.
“Hannah provided us with an exceptional experience being away from pets but having the comfort of Hannah's attention to detail and affection towards our cats. Highly recommend and would consider future booking with Hannah.”
About: I have 10 years experience of caring for dogs of all ages from puppies to senior dogs. This includes giving medication orally and basic training as well. I am currently available for morning and early afternoon walks and drop ins. Local walks around your area would be 20 to 25 minutes at a time. A premium, longer walk for more active dogs can be discussed on an individual basis. For drop ins i will let your dog out in to your enclosed garden and provide company and play time for the length of the visit. If feeding etc is required please ensure food is clearly available and the required amount specified.
About: I have loved animals ever since I was a young child and have grown up with both dogs and cats. I have my own two dogs who I adore! Don't worry, they won't be coming along with me to drop in's - your dog will get 100% of my attention. Alongside being around dogs most of my life, I have a degree in animal behaviour and welfare. So please be rest assured that your dog will be in good hands. I can be very flexible with timings for drop ins be it morning, afternoon or evening. If you require a specific time of day for your pets drop ins, please let me know when you book. I offer drop in visits in your home. This is ideal for young puppies, elderly, injured dogs or for those with separation anxiety. During my visit, I will be happy to refresh water and feed if required. I will also ensure to give your dog some attention and offering them a pee break.
About: We’re a family of dog lovers who truly believe dogs are happiest when they feel part of the family. When your dog stays with us, they won’t just be looked after — they’ll be welcomed into our home and treated as one of our own. 🐾❤️ Our home is a warm, loving and relaxed environment where dogs can enjoy plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime and companionship. We understand that every dog is different, so we take the time to get to know their personality, routines and individual needs, making sure they feel comfortable and settled during their stay. We have experience caring for puppies and are confident with toilet training, reinforcing basic training and keeping to their usual routines. We also have a very friendly and well socialised resident dog who loves meeting new friends and having someone to play with.

I already care for my own friendly dog, so feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship are all part of my everyday life. Being at home allows me to provide plenty of attention, stick to your pet’s usual routine, and make sure they receive lots of care, affection, and regular company throughout the day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide care exclusively in my own home, where they’ll be treated like part of the family. My home is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease.

“Thanks Amaris! This was my first time using Rover and Amaris was great! Wallace seemed totally unbothered that I had left him! Amaris was great at communicating with me and I knew she would look after my puppy! Thank you!”
About: About my experience with cats, I grew up around dogs and I really enjoy their company, their care, and affection. It would be a privilege to take care of your dog. As you can see from the rest of my profile, it outlines when and where I would be available. Would love to help. Please let me know. Schedule As a secondary school teacher, I am out during the school day.

Recently used Sandra to do drop-in visits for my cat while I was away on holiday. First time using someone from an app, so was a bit apprehensive about it. I needn’t have worried! She was great, even with my cat Dexter , who isn’t the best with new people in the house. Got daily updates and photos from Sandra, to let me know how things were going. Very reassuring. She also took the time to give Dexter brushes and pets. I came home to a happy cat. Would recommend.

Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.
You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.
Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
