“Came home to 2 very happy girls Really pleased with the service from Simone Easy to book and really convenient Will definitely use again and more than happy to recommend her for any caring needs you might have”


“Caitlin cared for our cat for 16 days and looked after our home with total reliability. When an emergency required twice-daily visits, she stepped up without hesitation. Calm, punctual, and truly dependable. We 100% recommend her and will always go back to her.”
“Becca was absolutely amazing! She kept us up to date with regular photos & messages about how our little furry friend was doing. She was so lovely & friendly & we are so glad we found her to look after our Rocky! We will definitely be using her next time we go away! Thank you so much Becca!!”
“I contacted Atlanta for drop-in visits to care for our puppies, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. From the very first interaction, she was prompt and professional, taking the time to visit our home beforehand to meet my family and the puppies. Atlanta’s nurturing personality and genuine love for animals really shines through. She’s incredibly thorough in following instructions to care for our puppies, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. We’ve now booked weekly drop-ins, and the puppies absolutely adore her! It’s clear that Atlanta is dedicated to providing the best care possible. We trust her completely to look after our puppies while we’re at work. If you’re looking for a compassionate and trustworthy animal lover to care for your pets, look no further—Atlanta is the one! Thank you, Atlanta, for all that you do!”

About: I’ve had my cat for two years and have always been naturally good with animals. I like dogs, cats, and birds. My friends and family often trust me with their beloved pets when they need someone to care for them whether it be for a day or when they go away on holiday. Hello 👋 My name’s Ahmed and I’m a university student and I provide pet care during the holidays. We are a 5 person, 1 cat household with no children and plenty of space for your loved ones to roam. I am only taking in cats for day sitting or overnight boarding. I have one indoors cat. We also have a fenced garden so that if you like, your cat can go out and explore
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have always been the one in the family who takes care of them. I raised two Labradors—Maisie and Maud, a mum and daughter—and was even there when Maud was born. I’ve recently moved out and don’t live with dogs anymore, which is why I’m here. I miss being around them and want to help people who need a reliable, easygoing sitter or walker. I’m calm, patient, and happy to follow whatever routine works best for your dog. I treat every dog with the same care I’d want for my own. I work full-time, but I’m home on Mondays and Fridays, which makes those days perfect for dog sitting while I work remotely. I’m also free most evenings during the week for walks, and I have good availability on weekends for both walking and sitting. Pet care fits in naturally around my schedule, and I really enjoy having that time with dogs—it doesn’t feel like a chore, it’s something I genuinely look forward to. At the owner’s home, I follow their routine and make sure the dog feels comfortable and cared for. At my secure apartment, I take dogs out regularly for walks and breaks, keeping things calm and safe indoors.
“Looked after my cat Yuki with drop-in visits while I was away. Rizwana was a lifesaver and always gave good updates with pictures. Rizwana played with her too so that she wasn't lonely or as stressed. I will definitely ask Rizwana for her appreciated help again!”

About: For any dog owners that know me, I am their go to dog sitter. They know their dogs will have an amazing time and be in capable hands. I work nights, I am home by 7.10am, I take the dogs out for an hour, then I go to sleep (dogs usually sleep with me as they’re tired from the walk). I wake up in the afternoon and take the dogs out again. My girlfriend, Ria works part time so she is home a lot. Your dogs wouldn’t be alone very often, if at all. We take multiple bookings from different owners at the same time, so it is likely that your pet won’t be the only pet under our care at one time. For this reason, you must pre-warn us if your dog has aggressive tendencies. I have a gated back garden, I am knowledgeable in dog behaviours, so I can tell if your pup needs to be removed from a situation. I have experience with nervous dogs and reactive dogs, and little yappers.
About: I have had years of experience helping family and friends out with their pets. I would always jump at the chance to look after any dogs & cats if the opportunity was given to me. Weekends, I’m free all day and night to take care of your pets, go for walks, check ins or even over night stays within your homes. I’m currently working full time, however I’m flexible to work within the evenings Monday- Friday to do evening walks or check ins or over night stays. During walks I respect the owners wishes, so I'm happy to keep them on lead if someone isn't confident about them being let off, and if I do let dogs off it's only in an open but secure park / grass area. When taking care of your loving pets, I will always take lots of pictures and videos to give owners daily updates on how they're settling in and what they might have been up to that day - Dogs they've been socialising with, walks they've had and any other updates in general.
About: Hello! My name is Inna. I recently moved to the UK and would love to spend more time with dogs again. I’ve had several dogs in the past — two wonderful Rottweilers, a playful Pug, and a sweet French Bulldog. They were all part of my life and my heart. At the moment, I don’t have my own dog, but I really miss the daily joy and energy they bring. That’s why I’m here on Rover — to walk, play, and care for your furry friends as if they were my own. I live in a quiet, comfortable home with a safe garden, perfect for dogs to relax and feel secure. I enjoy taking dogs on calm walks, giving them attention, cuddles, and playtime. I’m reliable, calm, and responsible — and I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands. Whether your dog needs a short walk, a friendly daytime companion, or a warm home for the night — I’ll be happy to help! 🐶💕 Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home. I'm available for walks and drop-in visits in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. I offer flexible pet care depending on your needs: – I can visit your home to feed, check on, or spend time with your pet. – I'm happy to take dogs out for walks in parks or quiet streets. – I can also host small or calm dogs in my home if you're away on holiday.
About: Ive aided in assistance dog training for 2 years, have a level 3 animal care diploma within that was taught canine first aid, I currently do go to uni doing veterinary bioscience and hopefully want to go onto doing veterinary medicine. I have a passion for taking care of animals and providing the best possible enrichment :) Right now at the moment since I’m back home I don’t really have much going on so it fits in perfectly with my schedule giving me something to do. Within homes I often do basic supervision such as sending text updates on what is happening and fun photos of your pets so you know they are always safe and sound :)
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 7 years old. I bought my own dog in 2022 at the age of 20 and she’s my best friend. I’ve fully trained her and look after her everyday. I absolutely love animals and would love to help owners look after theirs too! i’m currently working part time therefore have lots of time to spend with your animals. i have just finished my masters degree in applied clinical psychology and am looking to start a counselling business but in the meantime looking after people’s pets. I have a fenced garden and a small dog to keep yours company. She’s very friendly and is always wanting to play. I have a crate if necessary and plenty of toys.
About: I’ve taken care of lots of dogs over many years. I have always volunteered to look after family/friends dogs when needed. Some puppy’s some older dogs. I have experience practising training/playing with younger dogs as well as relaxing/ cuddles with older dogs. I had a dog since I was 3 years old and now I’ve moved out I take any chance to look after any of my family/friends dogs. I currently work from home and love to go on walks multiple times on my lunch/breaks. Me and my partner and daughter go on lots of big walks on weekends as well as short ones throughout the week. I have plenty of time to care for dogs and I’m hoping to get one of my own in the future. I am very flexible and will offer your dog whatever it needs. I have a fully fenced garden for safety and a park just around the corner which is suitable for good walks!
“Very reliable and caring towards whisky. Met all his needs and kept him entertained releasing some of his energy. Can definitely recommend Jess to others, she was very friendly and professional.”

“Jonathan did a great job with the boys and was understanding of buddy’s nervous tendencies with males and this guidance was able to support buddy with his feedback for his upcoming training . Klopp really took to Jonathan much to my surprise”

“Had Natasha looking after Buster the dog and Freddie the cat for pop ins over the weekend i would highly recommend her she is punctual and obviously loves animals. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again next time and it is of course a peaceful mind whilst away knowing they are cared for”
“Catherine arrived on time for dog-sitting. Oz and Vinnie were excited to see her and quickly settled into their routine of playing then sleeping. Very reassuring to know they were in good hands”

About: Why let me look after your pet? Well…I have a genuine passion for dogs which is a good start. I've been around various different dog breeds all my life (having had my first pet from the age of 8) giving me a broad understanding of their unique needs and personalities. To me, dogs are not just pets; they are cherished members of the family who bring immense joy and love into our lives. One of my dogs tended to be a bit of a reactive terrier, which taught me invaluable skills in handling dogs with challenging behaviours. I'm proficient in slip lead walking and my experience with reactive dogs has equipped me with the patience, techniques, and understanding needed to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for both your dog and me. Choosing me as your pet sitter means your furry friend will be in the hands of someone who not only has extensive experience but also truly loves and cares for dogs. I strive to create a comfortable, loving environment for every dog I look after, treating them as if they were my own. I currently work full time Monday to Friday but I get to work from home quite frequently. So I’m more than happy to take doggies out in the morning/afternoon/ or evening as I finish work between 4/5 most days. I’m also available at weekends pending there is nothing in the social diary! I have a fenced garden & live very close to some beautiful walking spots. I’m also happy to put doggies in their crate if required. Whatever suits the owner.

Mohammed and Aqeela provide such a fantastic service, dropping in to visit my 2 cats while I’m on holiday. They’re both extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and I feel so comfortable leaving my fur babies in their company. There is no one else I would choose in the Preston area!
