About: I am fully insured as a pet sitter and dog walker. I only look after one families pets at a time, I like to provide my full attention to your pet. I have many years experience looking after animals. I have owned little furries since I was 10 years old. I have taken care of family members dogs for many years, walking them regularly and keeping them overkight if required. I have also provided voluntary care including dog walking for people who have difficulty walking their own dogs. I do this purely because I love animals especially dogs, unfortunately due to working shifts means it wouldn't be fair to have a dog of my own. I have my partner to help out at weekends and evenings, who is amazing with dogs and they all seem to absolutely love him! I work shifts so on my days off and I would like to take dogs for regular walks and take care of them whilst families are at work to help fill my time I have just moved into a new home where I currently have 2 hamsters, when accommodating dogs I ensure the hamsters are safe and and hidden out of the way in one of the spare bedrooms. We have a big home with a garden and conservatory, where I can accommodate looking after them for the day. We have large open spaces nearby for plenty of walks to keep active. I never leave the dogs alone and will be with them at all times. I only look after one dog at a time, 2 if they live together.

About: Hi, I’m Cara and I’m a reliable and passionate pet sitter with experience looking after dogs with a range of personalities! I have grown up with dogs my whole life and love them as much as anyone could! I’m looking to work with them outside of university maybe as a trainer or work with detection dogs in conservation! I’ve grown up with Hungarian pooles (which aren’t the best with people or other dogs) so I’ve learnt to be very observant and cautious when out walking them. I’ve also grown up with cockapoos and springers so I know the other end of spectrum when it comes to energy and excitement out on walks. Growing up, I regularly walked neighbours dogs around the village for some pocket money! Since then, I have walked and cared for dogs for friends, family, and some private clients. When I heard about Rover I thought it was a great opportunity to get some extra support financially through University whilst being able to hang out with dogs! What a bargain. Let me know how I can help, and I look forward to meeting your pet! As a university student, I have a flexible schedule with free days that make it easy for me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet. I also have a car, so I can easily travel to your home whenever you need me. I am free all day Wednesdays and Thursdays, and in the mornings Mondays. I work Saturdays but am available Sundays. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I will ensure they are well-cared for, comfortable, and happy, whether that means taking them for walks, playing tug-of-war, feeding them on time, or simply keeping them company. You can trust me because I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring look after your furry friend. I will treat them like my own, keeping you updated with regular check-ins while you’re away.

About: Currently in Guildford and will be returning to Portsmouth in September to continue walking your doggies! I am a marine biology student who spends most of her time studying and is desperate to look after some doggies. After begging my parents for years I have failed to persuade them to get one and am now looking elsewhere to get the chance to continue to look after them. I have looked after a family’s friends dog (whether it’s one day or multiple) many times taking him (Dennis) for walks, play time with other dogs and bathtime. As a student, my timetable varies but I know it all in advance so it’s easy to fit hours in between. My weekends are completely free and open for looking after your dogs. My house is fenced off with no loose wires. I have a lot of knowledge of the area around me and have some great places to walk the dog/s.

About: Meet Louis – Your Friendly Neighborhood Dog Walker 🐾 Hi, I’m Louis! I’m just starting out as a professional dog walker, but my love for animals has been lifelong. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior dog, I believe every pet deserves patient, attentive care—and that’s exactly what I promise to give. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well-exercised during every walk. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior, and I’m always happy to adjust the pace or route to match their comfort and needs. Whether your dog loves energetic runs or slow, sniff-filled strolls, I’ve got it covered. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and totally in love with animals, I’d be honored to walk your furry friend. Let’s get those tails wagging! 🐶💚 As I can be very flexible with working with others as my own working schedule with work and every day needs, with keeping myself extra fit having fun with animals. When in someone’s property I would always be very respectful clean polite with the pets being my priority as in safe and comfortable at all times

About: I have loved dogs all my life and grew up with various breeds including a Labrador, Border Collie, Grey Hound, Lurcher, Springer Spaniel and whippets. Since I started walking and boarding dogs for other people, 4 years ago, I have looked after many other breeds though, from Bichon Frise and Chihauhau to Alsation and Bernese Mountain Dog and I think all breeds have their own wonderful special qualities... I love Staffies for instance and know how soft and loving they are, despite their reputation. Each dog has their own wants, habits and physical limitations so I tailor walks according to that particular dog's needs (be it a high-powered walk covering lots of ground, lots of ball play or a very slow meander close to home) therefore I don't offer pack walks (I can take a maximum of 2/3 dogs out together but only if they are from the same household or their walking/play needs are compatible). So if for whatever reason you are unable to take your furry best friend out as much as you would like to or you just need someone to dog sit or walk them while you are away or at work, please get in touch! I am a full-time dog walker and offer walking and daycare services Monday to Friday. I will however take doggy boarders over weekends of course. I care for dogs in my own home, as if they were my own. I will keep them with me, play with them and also offer lots of love and cuddles.

About: I have looked after dogs and cats for 3 decades as my pets. I am passionate in keeping them safe, feeding , walking and playing with my pets. I am free on most days as I work set days as a part time Clinical Nurse Specialist in Cardiology. You can pre booked up to 3 days so I can accommodate you but if urgent, I can negotiate! I have a secured home and garden with fence so your pets are safe. I have a place to fit them in if you want overnight sitting. I can visit home for cat sitting as I drive a car.

“A great big thank you to Tracey. I didn't worry at all about leaving Dolly. A lovely lady. Would definitely call on Tracey again.”

About: I take care of my family’s pets as well as working at a Pet Hospital as a Veterinary Care Assistant so I have experience in looking after them. I currently work full time but depending on my shifts and childcare I will be able to dog walk. As a single mum I have a couple nights free a week to be able to dog sit in your home. All I need to know is your pets normal schedule and what they eat, how much etc and I will go by their normal routine to keep them as comfortable as possible.

About: I come from a family that loves animals with all our hearts. I really love spending time with dogs and have experience in taking care of them. My grandparents owns a lovely German shepherd and she is 5 years old. She is everything to all of us. They taught and showed me how to love animals since I was little. They had many pets before I was born and after I was born. I would love to find a cutie I can get outside with and take for walks. Please do teach me all the necessary things and I am always ready to learn new informations about cute furry friends. I’m currently a full time college student. I have classes Monday-Wednesday but if I don’t have many assessments to do I can be free after classes. Thursday-Sunday I’m free most of the time but sometimes things come up and can get busy. I’m a student so I don’t think I have the best environment for pets in my college dorm. So, I can care for pets in their own safe homes. As I am an international student, I am a very responsible person. I came to a foreign country all alone and I had to learn to be independent and responsible all the time. You can trust me and I will not let you down.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have recent experience with 2 large rescues who both lived to over 14 years old. I am now retired so I spend all day with the dogs that I look after and they always get several long walks a day if that’s what they need, or they stay with me as I restore motorbikes in my on site garage if they have less energy. I have experience with large dogs and their needs but can happily look after any breed. I can also address any behavioral issues your dog may have. The majority of the dogs I look after are repeat bookings. I am a retiree after having sold my business in 2018. I am now renovating my own home and restore motorbikes in my spare time so am at home all the time. I have a large property with plenty of space for your pets and a large, walled garden. I live a 2 minute walk from the beach and parks of Southsea where I walked my dogs several times a day.

About: Hey there! First things first, I completely understand your hesitation about letting someone else care for your beloved companion. So, let me share a bit about myself. My name is Jessica, and I live in Portsmouth. Pets have been a cherished part of my life for as long as I can remember. Dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles—you name it! Back at my family home in Kent, we have two lovable dogs: Ruby, a sweet Staff X Lurcher, and Boomer, a unique Patadale X Chihuahua X Silver Lab (I know, it’s quite the delightful mix with a long story of its own!). I'm genuinely excited to offer my services because, at the moment, I can’t have a pet of my own. This way, I’m not only helping wonderful people like you but also getting my daily dose of cuteness and the chance to care for your pet just as much as you do! With a diploma in Animal Management, I have a good foundation of knowledge about various animals. I eagerly look forward to getting to know you and your precious companions! I currently work part-time remotely, which gives me plenty of precious time to spend with your gorgeous pets! I'm more than happy to drop in during the day or evening for check-ins and walks, or even stay overnight to care for your little ones! I have experience with a few different breeds of various sizes. I’m an enthusiastic walker, and since I don’t have outdoor space at the moment, I’d love to take your pup out for a walk or two! My flat is not just cozy; it’s a warm and welcoming haven for animals! Occasionally, my partner’s pups come over to stay the night, and they always seem so incredibly happy here!

“Rik has been excellent with my Puppy Morris. I can see on his pet camera how excited he gets when Rik arrives and he must get a good old play as he sleeps nicely in his crate after Rik leaves. I am pleased Morris and I have found a Walker we can trust and who gives Morris all the attention. He even saved my house from burning down when I left the bloody oven on!”

About: I've cared for animals my whole life—and currently share my home with two amazing dogs of my own. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for each pet’s unique personality. I have hands-on experience with leash training, crate training, and helping new puppies adjust to routines. I'm also confident with senior care, including administering medications, supporting mobility, and monitoring for health or behavior changes. As a fellow pet parent, I understand how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family member. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or a calm companion, I’m here to provide care that feels just like home. As a college student with a flexible class schedule, I have plenty of time throughout the day to focus on pet care. I build my routine around caring for my own two dogs, and I’m able to offer walks, drop-ins, and overnight care during mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Because my college schedule is consistent, I can commit to regular visits and stay in close communication to keep you updated on how your pet is doing. Whether it’s daily walks or weekend stays, I’m here to provide dependable, loving care that works for you. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I focus on creating a calm, familiar environment where they feel safe and relaxed. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether it’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship—so they stay happy and stress-free while you're away. I’m respectful of your home and make sure everything is left clean and just as I found it. I also keep a close eye on your pet’s behavior and well-being, and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel completely at ease. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities.
