“This was my first time using a house sitter for my cat and I could've have asked for anyone better than Emma to guide us along. Everything went so smooth and it gave us peace of mind recieving updates for each visit. I couldn't recommend Emma more :)”

“We just love knowing that Abi is taking care of our dogs, she is super responsive to our messages and was great at checking in with us after each visit that she came to let them out for the toilet and some company. Abi met our lovely other dog Sylvie for drop ins this time, and it's clear that they got on like a house on fire! Abi gives us so much peace of mind and we are so grateful for her visits 🙏🏻 🐕”

“Rhianne is a lovely young lady who I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and will be rebooking her for when we go away again. Maurice has been well cared for and is so much happier than she ever was coming back from the cattery, even though they also provided excellent service. Thank you Rhianne xx”

About: I've loved dogs all my life and made it my dream job of being a walker and trainer in 2018. I am experienced with all kinds of breeds, sizes, ages and temperaments! Being my own boss and working part time, I am in and out all day and spend a lot of time at home to care for your dogs. I have a fenced garden for your dogs to run around in, as long as they get on with my two dogs and my 9 year old daughter! They will receive alot of care and attention, and as long a walk as they would like!

“Thanks to Jess for dropping in daily particularly to feed my elderly cat. This meant that Holly didn’t have to leave the comfort of her home. Jess did a great job of feeding and emptying litter trays as well as cleaning up after any accidents. I would certainly recommend and would use again. Thanks Tina”

About: I have a love of all animals and treat everyone’s as my own. My home has plenty of space to accommodate all your pets requirements. I work part time from home so I am always around the house so your pet would not be left alone for more than an hour. I have a large enclosed garden with lockable gates to prevent access. My own pets have the run of the house and garden but each animal will be assessed and cared for as an individual and I have multiple rooms should some space from other animals be required.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience looking after my mum’s and sister’s dogs while they’ve been away on holiday. I’ve cared for them in my own home, making sure they stick to their usual routines with feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. Looking after pets has taught me how important it is to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in safe hands. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide pet care throughout the week. My availability may vary slightly depending on my work shifts, but I’m happy to accommodate drop-in visits, house sitting, and overnight care whenever possible. Feel free to get in touch with your dates, and I’ll always do my best to help. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, friendly, and welcoming home where pets can relax and feel part of the family. I don’t have any other pets, so your pet will have my full attention and won’t need to adjust to other animals in the home. Pets are welcome on the furniture if that is part of their normal routine, helping them feel comfortable and at ease. I am happy to follow your pet’s usual habits and routines, including feeding, exercise, and any special requirements. I work part time, which means I am home a lot and can provide plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day. I also have a roommate who is usually home when I am not, so your pet will rarely be left alone. I am also happy to stay in your home if that is what makes your pet feel most comfortable. I understand that every pet is different and will always aim to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience. I will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel reassured while your pet is in my care.

“Halle is great, highly recommend. Helly takes a while to warm up to people she doesn’t know and Halle gave her space and was patient. Already rebooked her!”

About: As a Registered Veterinary Nurse, I have trained for years doing what I love, caring for animals. I have experience pet sitting for work colleagues, friends and neighbours, attending to a variety of needs and requirements. This includes strict medication schedules, different daily walking requirements, and much more. I have experience caring for animals great and small, so no matter your pet, I can assure you they will be in great hands with me. I am looking forward to getting to know and caring for you fur babies! As a full time worker, I am available Monday evenings (after 7pm) Tuesdays all day, Thursday evenings (after 6pm) and Weekends. I will occasionally be required to work a Saturday shift which I will put up on my availability calendar. My work schedule can sometimes change so I will keep my availability calendar up to date. If unsure just message and I will happily do what I can to accommodate you! I am happy to travel to your home within 40 mins drive for house sitting, and 30 mins for a drop in/walk. but do not take pets into my own home due to having my own pets that like their own space.

“Amber was amazing ! She took great care of Gimli and was a great communicator. You can tell that she truly is an animal lover and we felt safe leaving our pup with her. Gimli loved having her around, he had a great time and we got some great photos :) We would be absolutely thrilled to book Amber’s services again and would certainly recommend her!”

About: My name is Shelley and I am a Registered Veterinay Nurse who is offering home visits/ dog walking/ vet nurse visits and assistance with your pets. I was a Head Veterinary Nurse in small animal practice for many years and have experience with dogs (of all shapes and sizes)/cats/rabbits/guinea pigs and I am used to dealing with pets with all manor of medical needs. I am currently working part time and also taking on clients and their pets for dog walks/ home visits and doggy day care. Feel free to contact me for a chat about your needs and requirements. I have an enclosed garden and separate field for personal use where your dog can play and have a nice time. I am a physically active person who is happy to go on short or long walks, depending on your dogs needs. I am also happy to visit pets at their home and carry out any medication administation/ attend vet appointments Orr simply just for a routine feeding visit.

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and grew up with both dogs and cats, so looking after animals has pretty much always been part of everyday life for me. I now have a dog and two cats of my own, all of whom are very much part of the family (and completely spoiled!). I’m confident caring for pets of different ages, personalities and needs, including senior animals who might need a little more patience, a slower pace or some extra TLC. I’m equally happy with energetic dogs who want to get out and explore, nervous or quieter pets who need time to get comfortable, and cats who will decide entirely on their own whether we’re going to be friends. More than anything, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pets with somebody else. I want you to be able to go away, go to work or just get on with your day feeling completely confident that they’re safe, happy and in good hands. I’ll always take the time to get to know their normal routine, their quirks, what they like (and what they don’t!), and make their time with me feel as familiar and relaxed as possible. And I am absolutely the type of person who will send you far too many photos and updates, because I know that’s exactly what I’d want when someone else was looking after mine. I am a business owner so can be flexible as to timings for popping in to see your pet. Midday visits are possible, but for 2 visits/day, these will typically be in the morning and early evening. As someone who has used pet sitters in the past, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. Where possible, I will always meet in person before you go away to make sure everything is done the way you'd want it!

“Very responsive and very good service. Would reccomend.”

About: Hi, I'm Helene 👋 I'm a Registered Veterinary Nurse with 6 years of hands on experience. I currently work nights at an emergency referral hospital in York, and before that spent 2 years at a first opinion practice in London. At home I have two rescue cats and a dog. One of my cats is geriatric and needs daily subcutaneous fluids and medication, so I'm very comfortable with ongoing treatments, injections, and medication schedules. My dog is also getting older, and attends hydrotherapy sessions amongst other, so I understand the extra care, patience, and gentle handling that older pets often need. I still make time for long walks and hikes with her, along with plenty of cuddles on the sofa. I've pet and house sat in both Norway and the UK, and cat sat regularly through my work, so I'm used to settling quickly into different homes and routines. Whether your pet needs medication, an eye kept on a health condition, mobility support, or just a calm and familiar face while you're away, I will treat them exactly like my own. I have a car, so I'm happy to travel to you 😊 I work night shifts on a rotating schedule, which means I get several consecutive days off at a time. When I'm off, your pet gets my full attention, with no other job or commitments competing for my time. I'm available all day, every day during those periods, so there's plenty of flexibility for walks, visits, feeding, medication, or just company, whatever your pet needs. Because of my schedule, it's worth reaching out with your dates in advance so we can plan around my rotation, but once I'm booked in, you can expect consistency and full attention for the whole time I'm looking after your pet. While I'm unable to host animals at my current residence, I'm available for dog walking, playtime in parks, or coming to your home to care for your pet. I know it can be stressful for an animal to have a stranger in their home, so I therefore fully believe following routines and your normal day is essential for good care. As a qualified RVN, I'm trained in CPR, emergency procedures, and animal behaviour, so your pet will be in safe, experienced hands.

“I was really worried leaving my wee kitty with a stranger. Lucy is an amazing petsitter. I had the possibily to meet her in person before my booking, which confirmed me I took the right choice. Thanks million for your time and help.”
