About: Hi, I’m Emma! I absolutely love pets, especially dogs! I’ve grown up around dogs of all shapes and sizes from labs to dachshunds and vizslas to cockapoos. I work in travel so having a full time pet is unfortunately not viable for me, however always jump at the chance to look after friends and families pooches. I love walking and being out and about in nature so when a friend recommend I could get a pet fix at the same time by offering pet services on Rover it made complete sense to me! I work flexibly from home Monday to Friday so can easily accommodate most needs. For last minute requests please do feel free to ask as always happy to help where I can. My weekend plans vary so again really can be flexible to accommodate. If your dog enjoys a walk and a pub visit, even better! When caring for pets in your home I will adhere to your preferences and insights about what’s best for your pet. If we are out and about on a walk rules are never forget a lead, something to throw, dog treats and poo bags!!

About: Note: at the moment only Georgia (me) is offering services, at times Thalia and I would sit together. I’ve had pet dogs, cats and many other animals my whole life. I have been very fortunate to experience long living dogs and cats (16+), therefore have experience with puppies / kittens and elderly animals. Not only was I involved with their pet care and giving them all my love, I also have experience dog sitting on Rover and for family friends, including puppies, adult dogs and cats. I would love to continue doing this and show the same care for your animals. I love going on walks myself, even better with a dog to come along! I am a uni student so can be very flexible and am looking for more regular sits on the days I am not scheduled in. At the moment, I am at University on Thursdays. The rest of the time I am free for day care and walks! I am hoping to have regular sits a couple days a week. I am available to board in the pets home! If at the pet owners home, instructions for the pets normal routine/boundaries would be useful to ensure little disruption and maintain full safety to you and your pet.

About: I come from an animal loving family so I’ve grown up and have experience with all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters and guinea pigs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages; playful puppies who need structure and training to senior pets who need a gentler pace and a little extra patience. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and routine so they feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible enough that I can give dogs the exercise and attention they need, and I’m just as happy spending quiet time with pets who prefer a slower pace. I am available weekdays and weekends. I also have access to a car so am reliable and prepared, even for same day bookings. I follow any instructions provided carefully, from feeding schedules to medication needs. I treat every home with respect and i send regular updates with photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I have moved to Portsmouth from NZ and here for my husband's job. Unfortunately, we had to leave our dog Remy in NZ with family. He is a 5 year old schnauzer. I love animals, I'm reliable, friendly and great with small/medium sized dogs. Happy to help with regular walks or the occasional extra hand and dog sitting. As I work part-time, I make sure I’m not working on days I care for a dog, so they receive lots of attention and companionship. Your dog will join me for morning and evening walks. If I need to pop out for groceries or errands, your dog will be safely left in their crate. At night, they’ll sleep in their crate in my room, so they won’t be alone overnight — and I’ll be right nearby. I provide attentive and responsible pet care in my apartment. Dogs are always kept on a lead during walks, and I take them out for morning and evening walks to ensure they get enough exercise and fresh air. I follow the owner’s instructions closely to ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Since I miss having a dog around, I’ll happily soak up all the tail wags, walks, and puppy love your dog has to offer.

If your pet stays with me, I’ll treat them just like my own. I usually take dogs out three times a day, about an hour each time. We walk, play, explore a bit, and just enjoy the fresh air together. I’m at home most of the time, so your pet will never feel lonely here. They’ll get plenty of company, care, and calm attention all day long. I love creating a relaxed space where pets can feel happy, safe, and loved. If you’re looking for someone kind and responsible to look after your pet with real heart, I’d be so happy to help. I live in a quiet and pet friendly home near Gunwharf Quays, with plenty of open space and safe walking areas nearby. It’s a calm place where pets can relax easily and feel at home. I always keep my space clean, comfortable, and safe for both cats and dogs. When a pet stays with me, I make sure they have their own cozy spot, fresh water, and lots of love and attention. I understand how important trust is, so I keep owners updated with messages and photos, so they always know their pets are happy and well cared for.
