“Amie went above and beyond when looking after our cats. She made us feel relaxed when we were away from them, as she communicated everyday and sent lots of photos. We would 100% book again.”
About: Hi, I'm Alex, an 18-year-old animal lover based in Redditch with a genuine passion for caring for pets of all kinds. I've spent the last four years studying Animal Care—two years in high school and two years in college. I recently achieved my Level 1 Animal Care Certificate with a Distinction and will be continuing my studies with the Level 1 Animal Care Diploma in September. I'm always eager to expand my knowledge and provide the best possible care for every animal I meet. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have my own dog, Millie, who is my best friend and whom I trained myself. I also regularly help care for my auntie's German Shepherd/Mastiff cross, giving me experience with larger breeds. In addition, I own a leopard gecko, Arlo, so I'm comfortable caring for reptiles as well as dogs and other pets. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone reliable to keep them company, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm currently offering pet sitting services throughout the Redditch area. My goal is to build hands-on experience as I work towards my dream career of becoming a dog trainer and helping to rehabilitate and rehome dogs. You can trust that I'll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits well into my daily routine, and I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for every pet I look after. Due to studying at college, I am currently available Mondays anytime after 4pm, Tuesdays and Wednesdays after 1.30pm and anytime on Fridays. I am flexible and happy to work with you to meet your pet's needs whenever possible. I have been caring for my own dog, Millie, since I was 12 years old. I trained her myself, with some support from puppy training classes, which gave me a great understanding of positive reinforcement, patience, and building trust with dogs. I am responsible for feeding her, making sure she always has fresh water, administering her flea and worming treatments, providing daily exercise, enrichment, and plenty of love and companionship. I understand how important it is to stick to a pet's usual routine, as this helps them feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in an owner's home, I will treat them as if they were my own. I'll follow your instructions carefully, keep your pet's routine consistent, make sure they receive lots of attention and affection, and keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I've been around animals all my life, growing up with two Shih tzu's and currently owning a crazy Springer Spaniel! Many of my friends and family own dogs and I love spending time with all of them no matter how great or small! I'm currently working part time (1:00-5:30PM) as a receptionist. I'll have plenty of time to play with and care for the animals! I currently have a springer spaniel and she requires a lot of care and exercise. As she is now more senior, at 11 years old, she struggles with her joints and we have to help her by providing her with the correct amount of supplements to keep her joints strong.
About: I’m a qualified veterinary nurse who wants to ensure your fur babies are comfortable, fed and loved and cuddled whilst their parents are away! As a full-time veterinary nurse, I work Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 8am–7pm, with one in seven weekends. This means I’m available for evening visits on weekdays, and I have regular availability for weekends, Tuesdays and most weekends for longer stays. I’ll always keep my calendar up to date so you know exactly when I’m available. Your pet’s safety, happiness and wellbeing will always come first. As a qualified veterinary nurse, I’m experienced in recognising signs that a pet may be unwell and I’m confident caring for pets with different personalities, ages and medical needs. I always respect each pet’s boundaries, never force interaction, and take time to build their trust. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed, secure and loved while you’re away.
“We went away for the bank holiday weekend so 3 nights, never used a cat sitter before so of course was a little nervous. Kerry came to meet me and my 4 babies before we went so felt at ease having met her. She is clearly experienced and understands your needs and concerns as a pet owner so was very reassuring before and during our trip! ”
“Joey has been brilliant with Jasper, reliable, responsive and kept us updated, which has been so reassuring. Jasper looks very happy and well looked after. Would definitely recommend Joey and use him again!”
About: I have grown up around animals all my life, which has made me a natural at understanding of how important patience, care and responsibility are when looking after pets. I currently have two cats of my own and have experience with their everyday care including feeding providing freshwater keeping them comfortable and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. Through caring for animals over the years, I’ve learnt that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs. I’m comfortable following individual instructions and making sure pets feel safe and settled in their own environment. I offer dog walking, pet sitting in their owners home and check-in visits. I am happy to provide regular updates and make sure owners have peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for while they’re away. I’m currently a part-time uni student and I would be able to do walks and check-in and overnight stays at owner‘s houses. I take care of my pets by feeding bathing and doing essential things for them. I have a small garden outside of my home so I let them play outside and they love it.
“Olivia was so helpful and easy to communicate with during our holiday. We could see the cats were very happy and we were able to enjoy our two weeks away with no worries. Highly recommended!”
“Maria is a really lovely sitter, and did an excellent job looking after Percy. Percy was very shy and nervous about his stay away. Maria did a really good job with making him feel comfortable and he was well taken care of.”
“This is who you want to look after your cat! Nori absolutely loved her visits, and we really appreciated the report cards and many pictures. Philippa takes the time to get to know your cat beforehand as well. We felt fully reassured little Nori was in the best hands with Phillipa. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Very caring, took time with the cats to make sure they were ok not just feed and give water. Cats were perfectly at ease around him and would book him again.”
About: Hi, I’m Naomi, I’m 37yo, taking a career break from the police and love animals. I’ve been fortunate to have been involved with horses for nearly 20years, used to have cats, have looked after several of my friend’s dogs and cats and would love to spend more time with our furry friends, and some of the not so furry! Have looked after horses, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, goats, sheep… Happy to help with exercise, medication factors, special requirements, picking up 💩 and of course lots of love and attention; if they want it! Making sure your animal knows it’s cared for and gets the odd treat 😀 I have my own transport and am willing to travel, just let me know. Have a couple of upcoming sits for August but just enquire :-) let me know what your animal needs and I’ll be there for them Happy to host, but I do have a 1 bed flat. I don’t have a garden but there is outdoor space and I can easily access plenty of outdoor green space
“Leanna and Lauren did an amazing job of looking after my 2 cats. They took the time to get to know the cats and their personalities and fussed & played with them as well as feeding them and administering medication (tablets and eye ointment) to one of the cats. They sent detailed updates and lovely photos. Unfortunately one of my cats became ill and they quickly identified the problem and let me know straight away. Using a cat sitter when my cat was unwell and needing medication was difficult but Leanna and Lauren showed a lot of care and compassion and were very reassuring. I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again.”
About: I’ve owned dogs all my life and currently have my own Golden Retriever, Cleo, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog. I have experience looking after dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities, including puppies and senior dogs. I’m also comfortable giving medication when needed and following any specific instructions or routines your dog has. I like to make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, so long walks are guaranteed rather than just quick toilet breaks. I also have a large, fully fenced garden with access throughout the day, giving dogs plenty of space to run around, play or simply relax outside. I’m fairly flexible with dates and times and will always try to work around you and your dog’s routine. I’m also more than happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so you can meet me, Cleo and see where your dog will be staying. I think it’s important that everyone is comfortable and that the dogs are a good match. Most importantly, I treat every dog as an individual and want them to feel safe, settled and well looked after while they’re with me. Caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine as I already spend time each day looking after animals and making sure they get the attention and care they need. I’m able to plan my day around drop-in visits, which means I can make sure your cat is fed, comfortable, and given some company while you’re away. I’m happy to keep to your cat’s usual routine so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I also enjoy spending time with animals, so visits are never rushed and your cat will always receive patient and attentive care. When caring for cats in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning the litter box, and giving plenty of attention and gentle play. I pay close attention to each cat’s personality – whether they enjoy cuddles, toys, or quiet company – and adjust my approach to make them feel safe and relaxed. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can see that your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate your pets routine
“I booked a last-minute trip and Steph was able to cover for all the days I was away. She was very diligent and looked after my cat, following all the instructions I left for my cat's special diet. I returned to find a happy, well-fed and watered cat. Steph is professional and responsible and cannot recommend her enough.”
“Jacob did drop-in visits to care for my cat, guinea pig, tortoise and hamster while I was away for the bank holiday weekend. He was great and sent lots of updates and lovely photos over the weekend. I felt very reassured that my pets were in good hands and I would definitely book with him again, thanks Jacob!”
About: I am a semi retired NHS nurse, currently living in Kinver, on the edge of national trust walks. I fostered cats for 15 years and still have regular updates from the families they went to. I travelled to Thailand to volunteer working in an elephant village. Then volunteered for Soi Dog foundation in Thailand, with rescued street dogs and cats. In the UK both my brothers had dogs. Pally has a 12 year old husky called Enzo. My younger brothers dog Lara, passed away last year. They bought her back from Canada as a puppy. I have house and pet sat since 2013. I adore animals and cats are my favourite. I found elephants a bit heavy for lap cuddles!! I’d be delighted to spend time with your beautiful babies, I’ve just returned from Somerset where I looked after Willow and Toby. I’ve been sitting for Toby since 2013, since then Lisa’s pet family has included a rabbit, a guinea pig, Gina a rescue from France, an African hedgehog, a turtle and fish! And now Willow too, she’s a rescue greyhound about 8. My cat Tigga has travelled with me to my sons, in Seaton Delaval, where we slept in my campervan. She goes and comes as she pleases, she’s a fabulous travel companion. She doesn’t wear a leash and always comes back. We’ve been camping together as well as to festivals. She loves it. As a semi retired nurse, I have flexibility with when and where I choose to work. Having family and friends all over the uk, I combine visits with sits. So I can cover further distances if needed. I have lived with animals and children for nearly 40 years. Animals are definitely easier! I am happy to give medication etc, i am comfortable looking after elderly cats and dogs. I am happy to prepare specialised food if it is required. I will care for your home and your pets like my own. I respect your space and your babies.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
