Dog Sitting in Reading

“We recently used Chloe to look after our cats, Penny and Sybil, for the first time, and she did an amazing job! She kept us updated every day with messages and photos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she truly cared for our cats and took wonderful care of them. We’re so happy with the service she provided and will definitely be asking Chloe to look after Penny and Sybil again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!”

About: I’ve had pets in my family since I was young and am from a family of animal lovers! I am renting and so unfortunately cannot have pets of my own and so I relish any opportunity to spend time with animals :) I have a lot of experience feeding and caring for a range of pets from dogs and cats to small animals. People in my life have trusted me to walk, feed and sit with their animals whilst they were away. I have recently returned to Rover after a long break. I am available on weekends, evenings and some weekdays to walk, feed or sit with pets. I have some flexibility across the week and work from home regularly. I’d be better suited to someone looking for a sitter here and there rather than someone looking for a regular walker/sitter as my schedule is changeable and I’m in full time work. My job is pretty emotionally demanding and so sitting is something I do for enjoyment to connect with animals :) I will be very mindful of any instructions you leave for pet care and will follow your lead on this. I always endeavour to be respectful of peoples space and boundaries and so as long as I know the expectations I will provide great care to your pets and can’t wait to meet them :)

“Tracey was a wonderful and accommodating cat sitter for us! She followed all instructions for our two kitties and took loads of pictures along the way to keep us updated on how our babies were doing! ☺️ She is very communicative and flexible, would happily have her watch our kitties again!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 18 years, including my own dogs, family pets, and my landlord’s dog here in the UK. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I work remotely as a website designer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on pet care throughout the week, including weekends and longer stays when needed. I enjoy being outdoors and go on daily walks, so having a dog with me fits perfectly into my lifestyle. I offer solo dog walks so each dog receives my full attention, care, and companionship. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while following their usual routines and any instructions provided. My remote work allows me to be flexible and available throughout the week for walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting, including weekends and longer stays when needed. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and any instructions from the owner. My priority is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment.

“Aimee was fabulous! She was a delight to deal with in making arrangements and understood exactly what I needed her to do. she came when she said she would. She topped up Lucy’s water bowl and took her for a walk. She left everything as it should be and I definitely book her again. Thank you Aimee!”

“Lucy was wonderful popping in to Martha today. I was kept up to date with everything and sent photos too. It was such a relief to know that Martha was is great, capable hands today, and I came home to a happy dog who clearly enjoyed herself too. Thank you Lucy!”

About: I’ve been around animals since I was young and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets including rescue dogs, hamsters, and budgies. Over the years I’ve provided dog walking, drop-ins, overnight house sitting, and pet care for friends, family, and clients. I have also completed a pet first aid course for extra peace of mind. I’m especially patient with nervous or anxious pets, having spent the last 9 years with my rescue dog who is fearful of people, which has taught me how important calm energy, trust, and routine are. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’ve also handled more responsible aspects of pet care when needed, including taking dogs to vet appointments during pet sits, so I’m able to stay calm, attentive, and reliable in different situations. I genuinely love animals and always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the day, especially during longer stays. Depending on your pet’s needs and routine, I’m able to do walks in the mornings, at lunchtime, after work, and in the evenings, while also spending plenty of time with them during the day. For dog walking and drop-ins, I’m generally available on selected weekdays at lunchtime, every evening after 5pm, most weekends, and during holidays including bank holidays and Christmas. I currently provide pet care in the owner’s home, as I believe many pets feel happiest and most comfortable staying in their familiar environment and routine. I always take the time to understand each pet’s usual schedule, personality, and needs to help them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I aim to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and consistency. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for extra peace of mind.

“Delci did a great job looking after our puppy. She kept us updated and the dog loves her! We would not hesitate to have her petsit again.”

About: I treat every pet like family—with love, patience, and lots of attention! Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or just some quiet cuddles, I tailor my care to your pet’s personality and needs. Your peace of mind and your pet’s happiness are my top priorities! I have also completed a certificate in Canine First Aid Level 2 (VTQ). My husband and I absolutely love dogs and treat every pet like family — with love, patience, and plenty of attention! Ramya, my close friend who lives nearby and shares this profile with me, also adores animals and has a lovely dog named Loki — a playful Beagle and Poodle mix. We all work from home most of the time, so your furry friend will always have company, care, and cuddles throughout the day. Whether it’s long walks, fun playtime, or quiet cuddle moments, we make sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved. We have a big garden that your pets can use to play. And we don't have issues having them on our beds or furniture. We have a 5 year old who also loves pets very much. I also provide photo updates and regular check-ins, so you’re always in the loop.

About: I’ve been fortunate to grow up with both dogs and horses, which has led to me taking care of friends animals often. I love the outdoors, so more than happy to go out walking with dogs. Being a uni student means I have a flexible schedule and can fit around you. I’m a uni student and have lectures that are 2 hours, with my busiest day being 4 hours, so can be around most of the time with your pets. I can do my uni work from anywhere, so need to worry about your pets. I’m happy to go out walking in whatever weather as I brought up walking my own dog and riding horses. I will ensure all pets are cared for in their own unique way and can make sure all their needs are met.

About: I have always been around dogs since I was a baby. After my dog passed away from old age I have been volunteering as a dog sitter for my friends and family. As an outdoorsy runner, if your dog is active and needs to let off some steam we will be a great match! I enjoy going to park or woodland areas and if your dog is more laid back I also enjoy a leisurely picturesque walk. Whatever they need! I work from home so if you live close I can provide many drop in visits throughout the day. I have full weekends free for plenty of walks and playtime, I am also free everyday after 5:30 pm. I live in a flat and there are many people in the building with pets, it’s a lift access. I will adapt to any routine needed for the dog. My personal routine is to always have available water and regular breaks outside with a short morning walk before 9am work starts, followed by a longer lunch midday walk (bringing the tennis ball 🎾), then an all out evening outdoor walk and play. Similar on weekends, but will sometimes do one big adventure in the forest. 🌳 Completely flexible with what the dog requires and how much energy they need release and by how much rest they need. I would ideally like to discuss and set up a plan with the dogs human parents along with food requirements etc.

About: With 15 years of dog ownership experience I've cared for a range of breeds, from large German Shepherds to small Yorkshire Terriers. While I currently don't have a dog of my own, I regularly look after Rover guest dogs and tend to the pets of family and friends. I've successfully cared for dogs of various ages, breeds, and temperaments, and would love to care for your fur baby! I'm proficient in walking dogs that aren't mine and I can handle multiple dogs simultaneously. I use basic dog commands and effective lead control to ensure your dog is safe outside on walks. Whilst your away I send regular updates with photos and videos so you can stay in touch with your pooch. I can administer medications, including eardrops and oral meds if your dog is unwell during their stay. Your dog will enjoy a comfortable home environment with a garden, offering ample playtime, toilet breaks, walks, and cosy moments on the sofa. As an extra service, I can provide baths, blow-drying and brushing. Please consult my calendar for availability- Your dog will experience a calm and homely atmosphere during their stay. I can accommodate up to two dogs simultaneously, but this may vary based on space and the preferences of the dogs involved. If you have multiple dogs, I can happily care for them together. Please note that I exclusively offer dog sitting at your home on Fridays and weekends only. Residing on the ground floor of a small block of flats, I have convenient access to a large communal garden, securely gated and fenced. The living room is spacious, providing a comfortable setting for your dog. They are welcome to join me on the sofa, and for overnight stays they can choose between their own dog bed or the sofa. Additionally, a nearby park and easy access to quiet off-road paths and woodland areas offer outdoor options for day time activities.

About: I grew up having a cat and then dogs as pets throughout my childhood and then as an adult. I am a qualified Veterinary Surgeons o I am confident in giving medication if needed. We are a family of 6 people and 1 little rescue dog. My husband and I have hybrid working situations which means that one of us is always working from home and therefore able to let dogs staying with us have company and toilet breaks easily. Money raised from dogs boarding with us between Easter 2026 and Harvest 2026 will be donated to our church for essential maintenance work. My husband and I work from home and the office. One of us is always around to provide company and toilet breaks. Dogs get walked twice daily for 30 mins-1 hr each time. We have a fully enclosed garden and live on a quiet cul-de-sac with a wood nearby for great walks. We have 3 children so there is always someone to give affection. we have our own little rescue dog who is approximately 2.5 years old who is very friendly.

“Mary is a professional and wonderful person. Your furry family members will be lucky to have her as a sitter.”

About: Hello! I’m Amelie and I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling big, strong breeds as well as smaller dogs too. Daily walks, feeding, playtime, and general care are just part of my normal routine back home and when I’m looking after friends and family dogs. I’m currently at university and i really miss being around dogs day-to-day, which is a big reason as to why I love dog care! I am flexible with timings and extremely reliable, also open to weekly arrangements. I have also volunteered/worked with a puppy training school class twice a week for one summer, where I helped support basic training, socialisation, and good behaviour. This gave me experience working with dogs of different personalities and energy levels.

About: As a cat lover and sitter, my life is filled with the joyful presence of feline friends. Being surrounded by these wonderful creatures, I find myself immersed in a world of love, whiskers, and soft purrs. I have a little feline companion called Ollie; he provides comfort during difficult times and adds to the celebration during happier moments.
