About: I have lots of experience with animals - dogs in particular because I have had dogs my whole life. I also took my dog to behaviour/obedience dog training and agility training. I feel I have a strong connection with animals and can handle all types of characters and personalities. I have experience handling nervous dogs and reactive dogs and elderly dogs. I have never owned cats but my family members have lots of cats so I have experience with being around them and looking after them. I am currently a fully time university student looking to build up a bit of money alongside my studies by doing something I absolutely love which is looking after animals. Since being away from home I have found a huge gap in my life because I don’t have my dogs with me - this will allow me to be able to look after animals while I am away from home which is something I love doing. My days weekly vary and times I’m available based on my lectures but if you ping me a message I am sure we can sort something out - I am a very reliable person. I will always make sure the animal has its needs met and will follow the instructions left by the owner to ensure optimal care for the pet and peace of mind for the owner. I know how important your pets are as I have 2 dogs of my own at home and used to have a rabbit and hamsters. I absolutely love and adore all animals.

“Emma was great. She booked several visits to look after our blind cat at short notice, and was a real life saver. It was peace of mind knowing Jimbo was well looked after whist we were away. She uploaded photos from each visit, which were nice to look through once my phone had signal! I recommend :)”

“Emily was great. She was available short notice for us after a friend wasn’t able to look after our cat and she really helped us out. Excellent communication, flexible in terms of our pets needs, attentive and caring. Will definitely use again :)”

“Ana was very helpful with making sure my cat was looked after and had the care she needed, as well as helping out with feeding my fish and topping up their water.”

About: I’ve always been pet sitting my family members/friends pets since I was little and have always loved it! Now that i’m at university, I don’t see their pets that often anymore and since im far away from home and love animals i decided i’d like to start pet sitting around where I live! Since it’s summer time, I have lots of time to hang out with your pet/check up on them, I’m available anyday after 10am I have no pets at home yet, my house is pet safe, big and comfortable for any type of pet. I’m happy with small and big pets.

About: -Flexible, positive method Dog Trainer -Pick up & Drop offs available on request -Only accepting dog friendly non-reactive Dogs for boarding -Training enquiries welcome I am Amber, a puppy behaviourist and dog trainer working in Plymouth. I am working towards my Level 3 qualification in Assistance Dog Training, and have plenty of time to interact with dogs while I study from home. I have trained and cared for a range of dogs over the past few years, and raised my own Sprollie Scout and Assistance Dog Sparrow. I am also a Musical Director and Project Manager, I work from home most of the time but do often work some evenings. Housesitting: I am delighted to offer my services as a house-sitter at competitive rates, as I work both inside and outside of the house during my week. Please ensure your dog is happy home alone for up to a full working day, and has a flexible schedule, if you’d like me to housesit for you. 24/7 sits available, depending on availability, at £15ph. Light cleaning included (bedsheets changed, surface wiped, vacuum cleaned) Extra cleaning is £30ph. I work from home most of the week, as I work as a Project Manager and Musical Director, so I'm only out for around 10 hours a week! I also work as a musician, but that means I am at home composing most of the time, and of course going on lovely walks with my dog. I have a big house with a dedicated Dog room and lovely grassy garden! Dogs are absolutely allowed in the rest of the house during the day. I have plenty of doors in between their main room and the front exit, so dogs are very safe and secure in the house. PLEASE NOTE: I will only accept non-reactive dogs with no vocal issues. I live in a terraced house with 2 resident dogs, so unfortunately I cannot accept dogs who are reactive/ will reactively bark/ whimper excessively.

“Great communication, lovely to work with. My cat was delightful when I got home, no stress or mess at all x”

About: I have cared for animals of all ages and sizes from a young age, starting with family and friends up to newer clients. I have such a love for all kinds of animals and truly appreciate the trust it takes to place your own into someone else’s care. I have a reputation in my family for treating animals like people because I think that’s the love they deserve! 🐾 I currently work full-time near Derriford during the week, with working hours of 8am–4pm. I’m available for walks and drop-ins before or after work, as well as overnight stays when needed. At weekends, my availability is much more open, and I can offer walks, drop-ins and overnight care during the day and evenings. 🐾 I have experience caring for a variety of animals with different personalities and obedience levels. I understand that every animal is different and that some may need a little extra time, patience and understanding. I have plenty of patience for all animals and will always take the time to help them feel comfortable and safe. Their safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority, and I will never knowingly put an animal in harm’s way.

“I hired Réka to look after my two cats while i was away for my wedding. Réka is such a lovely girl and I felt instantly at ease meeting her in person. I could tell she was trustworthy right away and would be a calming presence for my cats. She gave us thorough updates of the cats during every drop in along with photos, so I knew they were both alright. When I got back home, my cats did not show any signs of stress and seemed very relaxed. This is a big thing as my older cat Kiki is very shy and becomes stressed easily with new people. It was nice to know that she had been comfortable while Réka took care of them and I would definitely ask Réka to help us out in future! Thanks again!”

About: We’ve always had pets including, dogs, cats, chickens, ferrets, reptiles and rodents just to name a few. Because of this I absolutely adore animals and enjoy meeting each personality, we’ve taken in older animals for their last stretch on this side and rescued plenty of fiesty babies who become beautiful happy babies. My whole family just loves animals, because of this whilst I’m at university in Plymouth I thought what better way to reduce how much I miss my babies than to look after others. I’m going into my second year at Plymouth and found missing my animals was a huge adjustment so I hope this will bridge the gap for myself. For the last six years I have been looking after neighbours and friends animals when they go on holiday or have an emergency and truly enjoy spending time with them as well as looking after them. Hopefully I can do the same in Plymouth. Im currently going into my second year at university in Plymouth with a changeable but low course load. This means that I am available for plenty of time with your pet be that toilet breaks and some loving or house sitting with them or taking them on a walk when needed. I’m looking forward to exploring some new areas and I believe there’s some English heritage places I haven’t been to yet! Because I am staying in halls I am unable to care for pets in my home however I would be happy house/pet sitting when I would only have to leave for university lectures which tend to be 2 hours long (plus commuting)

“I’m so happy to have found Sarah! She looked after my Bengal housecat, who is timid with people she doesn’t know, and high maintenance when it comes to play and exercise. Sarah is lovely and really had patience letting Maya get to know her. I came home to a happy, well cared for cat. Thank you Sarah! :)”

“Rebecca did a super job looking after Ziggy again for the second time. She was really reliable and did a great job! Ziggy was definitely pleased to see her! We will be using her again a great service. 👍😊”

About: I've always loved animals, i've had a way with them and I would choose them over people anyday, Caring for them is something i've also done for a while having looked after my own pets ranging from rabbits puppies and birds. I've also helped out family caring for their pets when needed in the 2020 pandemic looking after their cat. I'm currently looking for work so I have a lot of free time, I try to be active so pet care and walks fits easily into my routine I can only offer walks or house visits. I will give pets plenty of attention and do my best to cater to their needs make sure they have plenty of water and follow any requests owners might have

About: As a family household we are huge dog lovers and have lots of experience caring for all types and sizes of dogs. Since losing our own beagle, we’ve found ourselves really missing the joy of having a dog around. Whether your dog loves walks, play or just a cosy cuddle, they’ll be treated like part of the family in our house or their own. Pet care fits naturally into our routine. I work part time with someone home from 2:15pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays ( we leave at 8.30am) , and full-day at home availability on other days if needed between myself and my husband Drew. We’re really excited to meet your loved ones and give them lots of attention, company and care. Our two children are around on weekends and evenings. They have grown up around both excited and nervous dogs, so they understand different behaviours and needs. Dogs are never left unattended and are always treated as part of the family. For dog walking or drop in services please check our availability calendar. Our normal availability is Monday 9.30-2.30 Thursday 9.30-2.30 and then 18-21. Saturday and Sunday all day, children will attend on weekends and holidays. Only one dog per walk unless a additional same family dog member is added. We care for pets in a calm, loving home environment and follow each dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. We have a fully fenced garden for safe outdoor time, as well as nearby fields and woodland for walks, and we’re also happy to travel by car for variety if your dog enjoys different walking spots. Dogs are supervised at all times and included in family life, with plenty of play, affection and rest. We’re happy to accommodate crates if required and can follow any specific instructions around feeding, exercise, medication or routines to help your dog feel settled and comfortable during their stay. Before we start walking your dog, we’ll take the time to get to know them properly. We’ll ask about the type of walks your dog enjoys most. We’ll also discuss their routine, recall, behaviour around other dogs and people, any training cues you use, and any health or mobility needs. This helps us tailor each walk to suit your dog’s personality, energy level, and wellbeing, so they feel happy, safe, and confident every time they’re out with us. Our dog walking service is one dog only at a time. Unless it’s an additional same family dog add on.

“Leaving a pet in the care of a stranger is always a very stressful experience for me and my daughters. I am very glad that I found Lauren J. on this platform (Rover), who took care of our cat with full professionalism. Ozzy is not a homebody type, he is sometimes distrustful etc. but Lauren coped very well with everything. Additionally, Lauren's great idea was daily updates (message and photos) of what was happening, how our cat was behaving etc. I will definitely choose Lauren to take care of my cat in the future. Lauren loves animals and I recommend her to everyone as a caregiver.”

“Olivia was reliable and provided a detailed daily update and photos. My cats liked and warmed to Olivia straight away,”

“Lindsey is wonderful! I could count on her to take care of my cats while I traveled. She has a great personality and I think my anti-social cats liked her!”

About: https://www.rover.com/sit/jb48608 <— Discount Code. I have experience caring for pets through owning my own dog and cat, as well as looking after friends’ and family members’ dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always aim to provide a safe, comfortable, and caring environment. I am patient, reliable, and enjoy spending time with animals, whether that involves walks, playtime, feeding routines, or simply keeping them company. I am comfortable with both energetic younger pets and calmer older animals who may need a more gentle approach. I’m currently off for the summer from university. I’m available at short notice for all pet needs, from walks to housesitting and more. In my own home, I care for pets by providing a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I make sure feeding times are consistent, fresh water is always available, and pets have a routine that helps them feel settled. I spend time on daily exercise and play, especially for dogs, and I give attention and interaction based on each pet’s personality and needs. For cats, I ensure they have quiet spaces, clean litter areas, and access to enrichment and attention when they want it, while also respecting their independence. As a dog and cat owner myself, I understand the importance of supervision, routine, and making pets feel at home. I would treat any pet in my care with the same responsibility and attention I give my own animals.
