“As always, Chloe was superb. She dropped in twice to see that Bella was ok, while I had to be away for the day. Bella enjoys Chloe's visits and gets her food and a potty break on each visit. Always a pleasure to have Chloe look after my girls when I need it.”
About: I've taken care of my own dog for roughly 10 years, and have dog sat for friends while they are away, I've looked after older dogs and puppies, anxious dogs and hyperactive dogs. I am currently at college throughout the week, and am currently unemployed therefore my weekends are freed up and I can walk or look after the dogs throughout the evenings. I am adatable to different surroundings, I am comfortable with having to crate dogs or put them in a separate room, I enjoy walking them and giving them all the attention they could want.

About: I have been looking after and walking dogs since the age of 12, my family members and friends often rely on me to take their dogs on toilet breaks and walks allowing them to get exercises when the owner is unable to do so. For the past three years I have been dog sitting in owners homes while they are on holiday to ensure as little disruption to the pet as possible. I’m currently working part time, just three nights a week, so I’ll have plenty of free time to play, walk and engage with your puppy I will care for your fur baby, by stepping into their routine with as little disruption as possible. This will be done by getting clear instructions, knowing emergency contacts, pets will feel comfortable in their own home surrounded by comforting items.

“Robyn has been amazing from start to finish - she met my friend who was passing her the keys a day early to meet Frankie for a smooth handover. She sent me photos every day and gave him loads of cuddles, and spent a bit of extra time with him when she had spare time one day. Honestly, 10/10 recommend. My friend who passed her the keys also said how lovely Robyn is in person too ♥️ Thank you for everything 🥰”
About: I have had dogs for my entire life and have never met a dog I didn’t love. I currently have two beloved Puggles, Cooper and Shadow. I also have three regular dog-walking clients that I walk three times a week, two of whom I have been walking for over a year. In addition, I frequently care for a relative’s dog during holidays. I am also fully insured for dog walking and pet transportation. I am typically available after 3pm from Monday-Friday and all day at weekends. Occasionally I will have work commitments until 5pm, usually every second Wednesday. During school holidays, I will be available at any time. I currently have long-standing dog walking commitments every day except Thursday, however I have plenty of time to do more walking! I treat dogs with care and respect and have developed positive relationships with the dogs I am responsible for. They look forward to walking with me as much as I look forward to walking with them and I have created a trusting and nurturing environment.

We currently have 2 very friendly dogs - Sam (cocker spaniel, 10 years old) and Sid (border collie, 5 years old) so have experience with dogs of different ages and sizes. Lauren has received training on home grooming and has groomed Sam his whole life. There is nothing that we enjoy more than spending time with our pups and have taken them on a number of adventures climbing munroes. We also like to take them on forest and beach walks. Lauren currently works full time Mon-Fri 9-5 and will be available on evenings 6PM-9PM and all day on weekends. Stephen also works full time but could be available on a Friday, weekends and evenings. We have a fully fenced and secure garden, along with dog bathing facilities if required. We also have a van available, with secure crates and ventilation.

About: Hi I am Frances, anyone that spends five minutes in my company will tell you that I love all animals but especially Dogs, I feel as though they are just beautiful, caring, compassionate, clever and all round awesome beings that we don't deserve. Can't help but smile when in their company, Living their best life every day in the moment. No coincidence that their name is God backwards. I have had 2 dogs of my own in the past who I consider to be my family and am at a loss without my Son at the moment. I babysit for my friends Dogs if they have commitments elsewhere and consider it a privilege to do so. You don't have to own a dog to be my friend, but it helps :). Rest assured your fur babies are spoiled with me and we have fun playing, and chilling in between the adventure walks with lot's of Pink Panther sniffing / investigating to be done as well as special treat sausages from the Local Butchers with your permission of course. I have recently returned from Rwanda and Uganda where I had an amazing experience trekking in the National Forest Park to see the mighty Silverback Gorilla and his family. I have also travelled to Borneo where I volunteered at an Orangutan Sanctuary ( Jungle School - on Netflix ) and have also volunteered with the SSPCA in the past too. It would be an absolute pleasure to look after your furry family member and would be awesome to be their honorary Auntie and included in their pack. I currently work from home Monday and Friday from 8.30 to 3.30 and in the office on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8.30 to 4.30. I am therefore able to look after your Fur babies for long weekends Fri to Mon easily fitting in with their own specific schedules. I am hoping to be able to make this a full time job in the future, as it would be a dream come true to be able to care for your pets and be paid to do so?! In an ideal world I would have won the lottery and I would pay you for the privilege of your babies company. I have a private fenced garden that allows security and safety for your pet to be able to go out for fresh air throughout the day in between the bigger walks - minimum of an hour of sniffing if allowed. Your pet will be allowed up on the couch and bed with fluffy blankets for comfort if allowed only, as I would not allow if not the norm for pet. All their requirements will be adhered and catered for, so as not to disrupt their usual routine.
About: I’ve helped look after dogs belonging to friends and family since I was at primary school. For more than two years, I’ve also been caring for my own dog, Zeke, a six-year-old Labrador with a big personality. I take care of every part of Zeke’s daily routine, including feeding him, preparing his homemade meals, taking him for walks, trimming his nails, bathing him, brushing his teeth and cleaning his face. Being responsible for my own dog has taught me how important it is to be consistent, patient and attentive every single day. Zeke is loving, funny and a bit of a troublemaker, but he can also be a very anxious boy. Caring for him has taught me to notice small changes in a dog’s mood and behaviour. I never rush him or force an interaction when he feels nervous. Instead, I stay calm, give him time and let him approach things at his own pace. I’m always taking photos of Zeke’s different moods and little adventures, and I even created a Douyin account to share his everyday life. I know how reassuring it is for an owner to see that their dog is happy and settled, so I’ll send you regular photos and prompt updates while your dog is in my care. When looking after your dog, I’ll follow their usual feeding, walking and care routine closely. I’ll take the time to understand their personality and make sure they receive the right balance of exercise, attention, reassurance and space. I’ll also treat your home with care and respect. I won’t bring anyone else with me or touch your belongings unnecessarily, and I’ll always double-check that the doors are secure and the keys are safe before leaving. I’m based in Glasgow, have a flexible schedule and am happy to travel across the city. Most importantly, I won’t simply complete a list of tasks—I’ll care for your dog as an individual and do my best to help them feel safe, comfortable and loved. I’m currently job hunting, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m based in Glasgow and happy to travel across the city for drop-in visits and dog walks. I offer drop-in feeding and care for both cats and dogs, as well as dog walking. I can arrange visits around your pet’s usual routine and will do my best to arrive at a consistent time each day. I don’t currently offer boarding or day care in my own home. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet and home with respect. I won’t bring anyone else with me or touch your belongings unnecessarily. During cat visits, I’ll be especially careful when entering and leaving so that your cat cannot slip outside. Before dog walks, I’ll check that the collar, harness and lead are secure. I won’t let a dog off the lead unless this has been discussed and agreed in advance. Before leaving your home, I’ll double-check that the doors and windows are secure, your keys are safe, and your pet cannot reach any food or potentially dangerous items. If I notice any unusual behaviour or signs that your pet may be unwell, I’ll contact you straight away.
About: Hi my name is Andrew and I'm a huge animal lover. I've had pets all my life and I have been dog sitting for over two years. I looked after a litter of seven puppies and have owned one of them for seven years. I have also looked after cats, guinea pigs and reptiles and I always make sure all animals are well fed and watered and the right amount of exercise and cuddles are provided. I'm a good reader of animal body language and I can always tell when something is wrong or they aren't well. This would be the ideal job for me as my love for animals is infinite and I do everything in my power to keep them strong and healthy and have a good happy life. I'm looking for dog walking opportunities near my home where i can take them out and back and make sure they're fed and watered. I'm unemployed atm so I have plenty of time on my hands to take your furty friends out for walks. Plenty of parks and grass near me to take the dogs to and hoping the owners have a similar situation but if not I'm happy to walk to the closest park as i like exercising myself.
“It was my first time using Rover or this type of service, so I was a bit apprehensive. Demelza did a great job and made us comfortable leaving our babies to her care. She sent daily updates and was very good at communicating with me. I will definitely use her services again.”

Dylan took great care of my very high energy Cocker Spaniel puppy. It was my first time using the app so I was a little anxious about the whole thing but he was super patient, friendly and accommodating of meeting us beforehand! It's clear that he loves dogs 🐶 Will definitely be booking him again - I'm sure my pup will be delighted! Thanks Dylan ☺️
Mark was an absolute dream of a dog sitter from start to finish. From the moment we met him, it was obvious how genuinely caring, attentive, and experienced he is with dogs. He took the time during the meet and greet to ask lots of thoughtful questions about Happy’s routine, personality, and needs, which immediately reassured us that she would be in safe hands. Throughout the evening, he spent quality time with her and made every effort to keep her routine as normal and comforting as possible. He worked closely with both my partner and me to make sure Happy felt secure, relaxed, and cared for while we were away, and it truly showed when we got home. She was completely settled, calm, and her usual happy self — which says everything about how wonderful Mark was with her. It’s such a relief finding someone you can genuinely trust with your dog, especially when they mean so much to you, and Mark exceeded all of our expectations. Professional, kind, patient, and clearly passionate about animals, he made the entire experience stress-free for us. We would absolutely book with him again without hesitation and couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you so much, Mark — you were fantastic with Happy! 🐾
What an angel! 💕 Not only did she put Bramble at complete ease while looking after him, but kept me so well up to date with how he was that I didn't worry once while I was away. Detailed updates, extra videos outside of the visit cards, and just genuine care for Bramble. Every visit she took time to get to know him, what he was comfortable with and met him with whatever attention he wanted. Bramble is on a specific diet and she stuck to it to a T. 10/10 sitter and I'd happily recommend Erin to anyone ♥️

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 Renfrewshire 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!

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.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
