House Sitting Redditch

About: I’ve taken care of big and small dogs and cats since I was 10 under supervision neighbors, friends and family when they needed me to go feed them, let them out for the toilet and play with them, I’ve done it on my own for 4 years I currently don’t work, I can look after your pets when you need, if you want me to stay with your pets over nights I would appreciate if you message me to make arrangements I would look after your pets at your homes as animals are more calm in their own territory and know their surroundings. I would follow any rules that is give to me from the owner

“Ben was wonderful with our nervous rescue dog Mindy. She usually takes a long time to come around to new people but she was letting Ben stroke her by the end of the day! Ben is an excellent and professional communicator, and was very keen to understand Mindy and her needs. I would highly recommend Ben’s services.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all around and absolutely love them, the past year I have worked for a dog walking company. But would like more freedom and have decided to go out on my own. I’m currently doing a canine behaviours course, to give me a better understanding of why a dog could be reactive in a certain way and different ways to help them if I’m the right fit for the dog. I’m currently in the process of making my own dog walking company, I absolutely love going out on walks and being outside. And when you can combine that with a love of dogs, it makes the perfect job. I’m doing little jobs here and there so I can spend most of my time building something for myself, while doing my behaviour course. While doing a sit depending on what you would be wanting in the day, I will be with your pet from 6:30 till 8am the next morning. This way your pup will have plenty of company and can keep their evening routine. Depending on what your pups need I can also hire a secure field, so they can still get a good run around.

About: I have experience of walking and boarding different small dogs and I have a real love for dogs so I will make sure they are happy and cared for when they are with me. I am a primary school teacher who works part-time in the week, so I have availability to look after dogs from Friday evening and all weekend in school time, however I am available all week and weekends during most school holidays. I have walked and boarded a few dogs and I absolutely love being around dogs and playing with them! I will keep to the routines and schedules that the owner has for their dog and try to mimic this when they are with me. I have a small garden that is fenced and secure where they can run around and have lots of places to walk with dogs near to me that have big open spaces to run around and play.

About: We have always had dogs in our family, I am experienced in looking after puppies, to dogs that get nervous etc. Since moving in with my partners family due to allergies we are unable to have dogs in the home. So I thought why not offer to look after other people’s dogs! I am home 24/7 currently, and looking to build up my portfolio on Rover. Any furry friends that come into my care will be waited on like royalty! Every dog can have different triggers/needs. Ensuring the dog has a safe space they can go to is vital, and also making sure any dangerous/harmful objects are out of reach, as I have first hand experience of a curious personality that knows no better!

“Coco had a great time with Laura! Laura was great at keeping me updated, and was really understanding and accommodating when our travel plans changed slightly last minute. We’d definitely recommend her and will be sure to book with Laura again 😊”

About: I’ve previously had my own dogs (lurchers, saluki cross and greyhound cross). I have also volunteered at a local rescue shelter for several years. Additionally I frequently look after neighbours and friends dogs as needed. I currently work on the bank for the NHS, I can pick and choose when I work but still require appropriate notice. This means I can be flexible to a point if notified early. Due to working in the NHS I have an up to date enhanced DBS. I can’t look after pets in my home as I rent, but I have plenty of places I can take dogs in the daytime or visit their own home.

“Ellen is brilliant with our nervous rescue Mindy. She asked lots of questions about Mindy’s disposition and routine during the meet and greet, and has approached Mindy with lots of patience and understanding. Ellen’s very friendly, quick to respond to messages and left the house in great condition. I wholeheartedly recommend her services!”

I have worked in a cattery and a kennel for 5 years, gaining experience on all different breed requirements, learning to administer medication and also do all day to day tasks.

I am often available on weekends and evenings I do not care for dogs in my own home as I still live with my parents and there is often multiple people coming and going from the property. I also have my own dog at home

“Winnie has never been left overnight before so we were understandably a little anxious. We neednt have been as Gabby was patient and kind to her and within 24hrs she has settled in and was playing and enjoying her walks. Gabby sent at least a daily update with photos and we were confident at all times she was being well looked after . Many thanks Gabby ?”

About: I’ve always loved spending time with animals and have cared for cats and dogs for family and friends over the years. More recently, I’ve been house sitting and realised how much I enjoy looking after pets and keeping them happy while their owners are away. I’m a patient and caring sitter who takes the time to get to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’ll always make sure everything is clear by asking questions, and I love sending daily updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. Whether it’s house sitting, walks or drop-in visits, I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine. I set aside dedicated time for walks, play, feeding and attention, so I can give pets consistent care and companionship. During house sitting or drop-in visits, I make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely and can easily adjust to special needs or schedules. I also make it a habit to send updates and photos to owners daily, keeping them connected while they’re away. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I treat their space and routines with the utmost respect. I follow any instructions carefully, making sure pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of attention and playtime according to their usual schedule. I’m patient and observant, so I notice any changes in behaviour or needs, and I make sure to communicate with owners through daily updates and photos. My goal is to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. My partner, Harry, joins me during house sits, we're more than happy to do a video call or meet up before hand so you can feel safe and comfortable with us both!

About: I have had a beagle since I was 5 years old, so I have a lot of experience in looking after dogs, and also a grasp on how to care for a variety of ages. I am responsible, patient and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs - they are my favourite animal! Pet care can easily fit into my routine. I will be based in Bromsgrove from the beginning of June until the end of August so will be available most days to look after your dog! When caring for pets in an owner's home I will follow your routine as closely as possible, making sure your pet is fed on schedule and always receives enough attention. I will keep the house tidy and make sure your pet always has enough fresh water!

About: Hello! ☺️ I’m Chloe, I’m 21 and currently working at Birmingham Children’s Hospital as a Healthcare Assistant while training to become a nurse. Caring for others has always felt very natural to me, whether that’s looking after people or animals… and sometimes I’m not sure there’s much difference! Animals have always been a big part of my life. My family used to joke that even a quick walk to the corner shop would take twice as long because I would stop to say hello to every dog I passed. Safe to say that love for animals has never gone away. Through visiting the Lake District I discovered my love for hiking and the outdoors. Spending time in nature quickly became one of my favourite things, which means long walks and outdoor adventures with your pets would be something I genuinely enjoy. I also love photography, especially photographing animals and nature. Capturing those little moments of personality in pets is something I really enjoy, so you can always expect plenty of photo updates while you’re away! I love spending time with animals, whether that’s playing outside, grooming dogs, or relaxing in the evening with some sofa cuddles. I’m more than happy to get muddy on walks, throw a ball for as long as needed, or simply keep a pet company so they feel happy and settled while you’re away. I also have a big soft spot for horses. There’s something incredible about caring for such powerful animals that are also so gentle and affectionate. As someone working in healthcare, I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to routines and details. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and I would treat your home and animals with the same care and respect I would my own. I update my availability calendar each week as I work shifts as a healthcare worker. This means that during my days off I have plenty of time to give your dogs lots of care, attention, and company, treating them just like part of the family. Please feel free to message me if you’d like to book in advance or check my upcoming availability. I’m always happy to chat and help however I can! As a real dog lover, I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own, and I’m lucky to have some wonderful references that reflect this. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priority. I usually prefer caring for dogs in their own home environment, as it helps them feel safe, relaxed, and settled in familiar surroundings. I also have experience with dogs who can be reactive to other animals, and I’m confident in calmly managing these situations by redirecting their attention and helping them feel secure. I’m also very happy to follow your dog’s usual routine so they feel as comfortable as possible, and I love sending regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well looked after.
