“Quiet cul-de-sac despite being located in the city centre. Frank settled well and enjoyed his time with Anindita especially the walks in the nearby park. Anindita provided us with regular updates and pictures of Frank's activities. Would highly recommend”

“Amber was fantastic with my two spaniels. They have been away from us before, but Amber settled them down no problem. Even sent us photos throughout the day. Highly recommend👍”


“Olive loved her second stay with Jemima! She settled in so well again, and it’s always reassuring to know she’s being so well looked after. We really appreciate the care and updates - thank you, Jemima!”

“David and Kayleigh did a brilliant job looking after Tala. We'd met for a short walk beforehand and Tala took to them both immediately. When I dropped her off, she happily trotted into their house. Communication was brilliant and Tala looked happy and settled when I picked her up. She had been spoilt with cuddles and attention and I'm sure she'll be delighted to go back for her next stay :-) Thank you both very much!!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats of all sizes, from energetic Belgian Malinois to cuddly Cockapoos, as well as family cats. At 6’4 and 100kg I am happy with all sizes of pets. I’m comfortable walking multiple dogs at once and have experience caring for senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. Whether they’re playful and high-energy or older and relaxed, I truly believe the more the merrier and treat every pet like family. I currently work shift patterns so the bookings will be made for times where I am off work the whole time. This means I will have all the time day and night to attend to your pets needs All pets will be looked after as if they are my own. No matter the breed, size, gender, of the animal their car will be tailored to their specific needs
About: Excited to look after your furry friends & enjoy long seaside walks to ensure your pup is well exercised and not missing you too much! My partner and I live in Stoke, Plymouth so your dog will enjoy lots of long walks in the nearby parks and coastal areas such as Devil’s Point & Royal William Yard. We both work from home full time, so your furry friend will be well looked after with morning, afternoon & evening walks - along with plenty of cuddles throughout the day! We have a fully enclosed yard out the back and parks at the end of our road, to ensure your pup is well exercised. We are very active on the Rover app, so please let us know if your dog isn’t sociable with other dogs and we will try and make arrangements.

“Kate has been so kind and caring getting to know our anxious dog - Luna had so much fun at her evening stay today, we’ll definitely be booking with Kate again very soon! Kate has a lovely home and is super accommodating to our dog’s needs. We feel really happy and content knowing Luna is relaxing while spending time with her. Thanks so much!”

“Tegan was absolutely amazing! She responded quickly to messages and we met in the park to see how she and Tala would get on. They took to each other immediately and I was confident that Tala would be in good hands. This was my first time of leaving Tala with anyone other than family so I was a bit anxious about it but needn't have worried - Tala had a fabulous time! Tegan had her 3 days in a row and when I dropped her off on the second day, she happily ran into Tegan's house, wagging her tail :-) I work long shifts so Tegan had Tala all day long and Tala was always happy and relaxed when I picked her up. She had plenty of walks and cuddles and I suspect she wouldn't mind moving in with Tegan permanently!”


“Jenny took on my dog for day care and was very supportive to ensure Toffee relaxes quickly (Toffee is a nervous dog). She asked a lot of questions in advance and we were really well prepared for the actual care. She has a great and calm approach to the dog. There are also really nice green spaces nearby where they were able to wander. Toffee didnt want to come back! We will book more, thank you”


About: I have lots of animals myself: including, cats, geckos, a mantis and my cockapoo. However, being a student I don’t get the opportunity to see them. I would love the opportunity to help out families by looking after their animals whilst also being able to experience the joy of animals myself. I have experience in volunteer dog walking and have had to look after dogs on short notice in the past. I am ready for any dog that comes my way. As a student whom has now finished their course I have lots of free time which I would love to fill with furry friends. I would be able to dedicate my days to care and love. I live right next to a park and a walk away from the hoe. I love staying active myself so would love to have a friend to walk with. I currently have no pets in my home as my animals live at my family house. When I’m home from university I love taking my dog out for her walks and feeding her twice a day. I also care for my cats and enjoy keeping them groomed and well fed.
About: Available over Christmas Growing up, my family had a large German Shepherd named Chico who I absolutely adored and would spend large amounts of time playing with. This is where my love for big dogs began. After moving from my parents, I was unable to get my own dog due to not finding suitable accommodation. However, I managed to get many hours of caring for my nieces boarder collie in. Reggie, the collie in question, was my first experience with a reactive dog. After months of doing my own research and training Reggie (and my niece) we saw some real progress in his behaviour. Fast forward a year and I was training my own, very large, very reactive Catahoula/Labrador. Training such a large, powerful dog and working alongside an incredibly skilled dog trainer taught me so much and helped me build my confidence with dogs that needed a little more patience and work. Because of these experiences, I am more than happy to work alongside pets that others may not be. I would be offering more than just a walking/sitting service and am happy to use my knowledge to help owners train their pets if desired. Please send me a message for my availability as I work shifts but am happy to move things about when I can. I will always want to meet a dog before sitting/walking then to ensure we are the right fit for one another! My care for your pet will always vary greatly depending on their own needs and personality. I will always ask to meet the pet and owner first to discuss any care requirements they have and to make sure we are a good for for one another
“Having never used Rover before, I was a bit nervous, but Daryl quickly put me at ease. He’s been fantastic at reassuring me and sends detailed updates after each of Flossy’s visits. It’s clear from the way he cares for his own dog, Cooper, that Floss is in very safe and loving hands. She’s looking forward to building a new friendship with both Cooper and Daryl.”

“I’m really grateful to Becki for looking after Gracie at such short notice. Gracie had a wonderful time and looked extremely happy in the photos I was sent. I would have no trouble recommending Beckie’s services and look forward to Gracie visiting soon.”

About: I’ve regularly walked dogs for the past 10 years and have my own family dog, Toby, who unfortunately recently passed away. I’ve taken dog training classes when Toby was a puppy. Additionally my family have had 2 rescue beagles before, they may have been difficult at times but it has given me the experience of dealing with anxious dogs. I also have experience with cats and grew up with a family cat for 15 years. I love the connection and happiness that dogs can bring. I’ve recently moved back to the area, having been looking after dogs and cats through Rover in London. I’d love to help out pet owners in the local area! I currently work full time from home and so am available everyday during the day, at lunch times and in the evenings. I’m also free most weekends and am happy to make time to look after your furry friends. Working from home has got rather lonely and I’d love the chance to be able to interact with you and your dogs! I will happily visit your pets in your home, as I know sometimes dogs love the comfort of familiar surroundings. I have experience of dealing with many family dogs of varying sizes. I’m also happy to regularly walk your dog, building a relationship will help them feel at ease. Whether your preference is on lead, off lead, large parks or enclosed spaces, I will be happy to accommodate.

About: Growing up on a farm, I have looked after, groomed and trained numerous animals including dogs, cats, cows, pigs, chickens and more. I spent the majority of my childhood and teenage life roaming moors and woodlands with dogs. I work as a freelance theatre and dance teacher. This means that I have lots of free time and am looking to spend more of my free time dog sitting and walking. As far as I am concerned, pets are small humans. They get treated with love and respect and I ensure all of their needs are met. Equally, I like to further and make sure that they have gone on lots of adventures so that when they get home, all they want to do is have a nap, some food and maybe a cuddle.
About: A true animal lover, I have had many myself since I was a child growing up on a farm in the mountains of Andorra: horse, cats, rabbits, dogs, pigs, cows, sheep...I was lucky enough to be able to take my dogs with me to study at Plymouth University- marine biology and oceanography. Therefore, your furry best friend will also have the chance to make new pawsome mates to spend time with and above all, never get bored. My two dogs are called Salsa (jack russell cross) and Billie Eilish (working cocker spaniel), both part time working dogs for pack Boar hunt, mountain goat finds and rabbit hunt. More about myself- I did several weeks of volunteering in a veterinary clinic which gave me the energy needed, skills and patience with sick or old animals. Gentle, jovial and energetic in nature, I would be delighted to enjoy the outdoors with your furry friend during various walks a day, to clean it, feed it and of course to give as much love and cuddles as necessary. Serious and dynamic, I listen to your needs and those of your animal so that he feels as good as possible in your absence and during his stay with me and my partner which lives home aswell. I live near the Hoe and I can travel around Plymouth or its surrounding areas having my car here I offer pick up and drop off services! I am a student at the University of Plymouth and study marine biology and oceanography which means a lot of time at the beach with the pups to fill in this notebooks! I propose long stay and short stay as i don’t go out and live with my fiancé who is also a doggo lover! As previously said, I live by the Hoe which means it is a quick walk to a nice open space for dogs to exercise which is like a garden to me as walks are around 3-4 times a day for my two gorgeous girls. I also do have a little garden on the back of the flat which is secure but small that i therefore don’t use. During bad weather I use sniffin’ games, play hide and seek and get my pups to learn new tricks which could do with yours aswell :) Usually on a basis nice day and weekend we go 3h to the moors or Plymbridge to play and evening rest and walkies around the park. Sundays we go to central park and have an amazing time chasing squirrels or playing fetch ! We also go biking or rest depending on the energy of the dog!
Plymouth dog owners share their Rover experiences
Kate did an amazing job looking after my young Springer Junie for the day. She's a high energy pup and had never been with a sitter before so I was a little worried but Kate was brilliant. She kept me updated, took her on some great walks and sent some lovely photos. Junie came home exhausted in the evening so clearly had an amazing day! I would highly recommend - thank you so much Kate

We’ve now trusted Lucy and her family to care for our collie, Max, for the second year in a row, and once again they’ve been absolutely fantastic. Max clearly adores his time with them. He enjoyed plenty of lovely walks, lots of snuggles, and constant positive attention. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands. They treat him like part of the family, and it really shows in how happy and relaxed he is when we return. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and are so grateful for the love and care they give Max each time!

Nicola has been wonderful. She looked after our Otis (who has never been with anyone other than us, family and friends) who wasn’t sure when we left him with her at first but he soon settled in and was snuggling, playing and eating in no time. Nicola sent regular updates with photos which was lovely to receive. We tried Otis with Nicola just for a day and we will certainly be booking her for boarding in the future! Thanks Nicola for being amazing 🙏🏼

Altogether a fantastic experience. Georgie provided excellent care for our lovely girls. Nala was an excellent friend to our doggies too. We couldn't be more pleased and would strongly recommend Georgie to any dog owners looking for pet care. Thank you so much.

absolutely amazing family zulu absolutely love spending time with you all. Great communication as zulu eating habits had changed due to being fuzzy. Lauren and her family where support of this and being able to provide a video for them helped alot. Lauren you and your family have welcomed zulu into your home amazingly and she is truly loved by you all. ❤️

Julia and her sister Natalia were able to accommodate Mylo for daycare which he seems to have really enjoyed. I think Mylo and their dog Nala are now friends too 😊 Would highly recommend & will be calling on them to mind Mylo again when the need arises. 5 stars! Really appreciate the care they gave him.

Thanks so much for keeping Charlie entertained. He’s such a collie! He’ll have loved chasing his ball on the Hoe. Great pictures (he lounges well if offered cuddles once exercised … he’s clearly very content with you). I’m glad that you enjoyed each other’s company.

Laura is absolutely lovely, easy-going, and brilliant with dogs - Tala adores her! She looked after Tala really well, took her on long walks and gave her plenty of attention. On Tala's second time with Laura, Tala ran right into the house as soon as Laura opened the door, obviously feeling at home there and happy to come back. I would definitely recommend Laura as a dog-sitter.

Thanks for entertaining Charlie again Jenny. He slept well on his return home. He clearly enjoys your company and seems unfazed when I head off. I’m glad that he kept your feet warm under the desk whilst you got some dissertation work done. Thanks for lobbing the tennis ball for him (he loves chasing that ball!). Will look for future dates.

Thanks so much for getting wet and muddy with Charlie during some rainy days. He’s not a fair-weather dog … and he loves being in the water. He slept well after his doggy day care. He’s clearly comfortable with your company (nice to see him run into the house in readiness to play!). We’ll look for some future dates.

Hannah was absolutely wonderful with Tala, took her for a glorious walk around Saltram and gave her loads of cuddles and attention. Hannah is a lovely person and Tala took to her straightaway. She could not have been in better hands and I expect she is already looking forward to another day with Hannah in the near future :-) Thank you so much Hannah!
