“Lily did a great job with Kobi whilst we were away - he’s quite anxious with new people and can be reactive, but she wasn’t phased at all and was super relaxed about looking after him, and kept us updated with photos during her stay. Would definitely recommend and will book again! Thank you.”
“Ainhoa looked after our Jack Russell for 6 days. We were away of UK and she stayed at our home during the days. She followed our instructions and was sending us pictures and small videos everyday. We found the house clean and Roki was well looked. If we need a sitter again, we will definitely contact her again.”
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job with our cats, despite their fussy routines! She handled all the meds perfectly as well and we came back to a clean house and happy kitties. Will definitely book her again in future :)”
“Nicole was fantastic to work with, she was flexible, caring, and a fantastic communicator. She updated and knew our Nugget was being well looked after. Highly recommend!”
“God sent!! Adriana was absolutely amazing with Pako! She cared for him better than me, with constant updates and photos to my mind at ease! Looking after a dog with seizures is hard but Adriana went the extra mile to make sure he was ok. She took her time to research and ordered tailored made food for him which he loves! Me and Pako cant thank you enough ❤️”

About: I have taken care of and had animals in my home since I was a young child. I have had the pleasure of meeting and caring for family, friends and acquaintances' pets throughout my life; being around animals will always be my comfort zone. I am currently freelancing from home so I can be very flexible with the dates and times of bookings! Plenty of time to look after the pets. The house has a large living room and ground floor, including a large fenced grass garden for dogs to play or relax. I also give dogs the option of fresh air and play at daycare bookings if the owner permits.
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals, and have had either dogs or cats around my entire life. I am comfortable with all sizes and temperaments, and know how to train and entertain pets to keep them happy and healthy. I have just moved from the countryside into London, and am missing my pets at home! I work remotely as a freelancer, which means my schedule is incredibly flexible. I go for walks every day, and also spend time each day sitting quietly at my desk, and would love some pet company for both activities. I care for any pet as if they were my own, and have the experience and knowledge to keep them safe in any circumstance. I have walked many of my friends dogs around London, ranging from Bernese Mountain Dogs to Sausage Dogs, so I know I can keep a pet happy and safe no matter the breed or location.
About: Hello! Cat mum of 2 little terrors - 1 14 year old boy called Toosh and 1 4 year old girl called Joop. Joop was a new arrival and came as a stray with 3 kittens who have now been happily rehomed so experienced with cats of all ages. I use Cat In A Flat when I go away and know how nerve wrecking it is leaving them, so would like to offer a safe pair of hands to someone else in the same situation. Sadly don't have the space for a dog as well but an all round animal lover and lover of walkies, so happy to look after dogs as well!
“Israel was absolutely fantastic with Titan! From the moment he took over, he treated Titan just like one of his own dogs. He constantly took him out, kept him well-exercised, and gave him so much love and attention while we were away. Israel did a house-sitting stay for us, and he was incredibly respectful of our home. He kept everything clean and tidy, leaving us with total peace of mind the entire time. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after your dog, I cannot recommend Israel enough. We will definitely be booking him again!”

“First class service! Alice was incredibly reliable and took excellent care of Wasabi. She arrived on time and looked after him attentively throughout the day. Wasabi was clearly very happy and comfortable in her care. We will definitely be booking Alice again and would highly recommend her to others without hesitation.”

Lily did a great job with Kobi whilst we were away - he’s quite anxious with new people and can be reactive, but she wasn’t phased at all and was super relaxed about looking after him, and kept us updated with photos during her stay. Would definitely recommend and will book again! Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking care of our baby for a whole week whilst we were away. We’ve come home to a happy and healthy kitten, we had plenty of updates and the flat has been left spotless. 10/10 service and would recommend Yuyee to everyone who wants peace of mind that their baby will be taken care of to the best standards. So very grateful! Thank you wholeheartedly!
Thanks a million, Nicole, for taking such good care of Tayto. We honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after him. At 11 years old, Tayto is very attached to us and feels most comfortable in his own home, so it was incredibly reassuring knowing he was in the hands of such an experienced and caring dog sitter. Your daily updates and photos were so appreciated and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. You were always so responsive and clearly went the extra mile to make sure Tayto was happy and settled. Coming home to a happy dog and a lovely, clean house was an added bonus! We’re so grateful for the care and attention you gave Tayto and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you again, Nicole! ❤️
Susanna has become our go to sitter when we are planning holidays. She’s so great with animals and leaves house spotless. She’s great at following instructions and made sure animals are all pampered with frozen treats throughout the heatwave. I can’t recommend her enough as it is so difficult to find someone you can truly trust on the app, it makes leaving our beloved pets so much easier.
It has been a very positive first experience with Şansel! I reached out to her ahead of a two and a half week summer holiday. She was very responsive, and kindly came to see us ahead of time so we could introduce her to Camomille and go through her routines. Camo immediately warmed up to her. During our trip, she sent lots of pictures and daily updates, which we found very helpful as we always miss Camo when we’re away. We came back to a sparkling clean and tidy flat, and a relaxed and purring Camomille. We will book Şansel again, and recommend her to other cat parents!
Kelly was incredibly kind and gentle with Wasabi. Wasabi had a wonderful time with her, and it was clear that Kelly is reliable, caring, and attentive. We felt completely at ease knowing Wasabi was in such good hands. We will definitely be booking with Kelly again!
Khushi looked after our dog for the day and we had a great experience. She was kind, reliable, and clearly very caring with animals. We came back to a very happy and relaxed dog. We felt completely at ease and would happily trust Khushi again in the future. Highly recommended!
Annie has been great looking after Zeus! Communication was great and she made sure she followed Zeus’s routine and sent lots of pictures throughout the day. The communication beforehand was great as well - making sure we felt comfortable before the handover! Would recommend Annie! Thank you!
Karly was a great sitter! One of those people you can just tell loves cats! Our boy is very clingy, but when we came home he barely even glanced at us, which is a sure sign that Karly gave him all the attention and love he needed while we were away (and he needs a lot!). She really went the extra mile with his care and was super helpful with things like bins and mail, asked clarifying questions about his care, sent regular updates and pictures, and left the house exactly as it was when she arrived. We also have catcams and she was very fine with them remaining on the whole time we were away, which I think really says good things about her trustworthiness. Very responsible and trustworthy, I definitely recommend her as your next catsitter!
Faith was a phenomenal sitter for us and took exceptional care of Ophelia. Prior to the booking, Faith took the time to properly understand Ophelia's needs, play style, and overall well-being. Throughout the week, she provided daily updates and even helped Ophelia develop better habits—like sitting patiently while her dinner is prepared—which is something we’ve struggled with in the past. She even taught her new tricks that we are looking forward to practicing! We absolutely loved Faith's care and attention to Ophelia's needs, as well as her understanding of our communication style while we were away. It gave us total peace of mind during our first holiday apart from her. We would absolutely recommend Faith to any pet owners seeking a knowledgeable and caring sitter who treats your pet like their own. Thank you so much, Faith; we came home to a happy, playful cat who truly enjoyed the time she spent with you.
Rebecca was such an amazing sitter for my cat and dog. She is a super proactive communicator and genuinely showed care for my pets. She remembered all the little keep-in-minds (I have an anxious kitty on a prescription diet!) which I really appreciated. She went above and beyond, even getting extra treats for the dog and keeping the flat in lovely shape. My pets instantly took to her warmth and they look forward to the next visit already :)
First class service! Alice was incredibly reliable and took excellent care of Wasabi. She arrived on time and looked after him attentively throughout the day. Wasabi was clearly very happy and comfortable in her care. We will definitely be booking Alice again and would highly recommend her to others without hesitation.
Shakira was exceptional. She was attentive, professional and tremendously caring with all 3 of our cats (our babies!). She is a natural, Mist & Toby and our older fur-boy Oscar was right at ease the moment they met her. Oscar is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day and Shakira was able to do this along with administering oral medication for him effectively during the house sitting. Shakira gave us the peace of mind we were seeking, by keeping us informed and sending cute pics of all 3. We knew our babies were in good hands and we remain deeply grateful for her kind care and professionalism. Shakira is a super-star and we will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Shakira, you done great! Lots of love Saira, Tom & Co (fur-gang) xxx🥰🤩🐾

FAQs for House Sitting – Redbridge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Redbridge on Rover is £34.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Redbridge walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Redbridge choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
