“Rafael was fantastic with Albie! They kept in good communication before and during the sit, which really helped me feel reassured. It’s always so daunting leaving your pet with someone but Rafael made it really easy, and I’d definitely book with them again. They sent me pictures and updates and were super welcoming and friendly.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12. I began by dog-sitting for my neighbours or family members, which eventually spread to many more people who had heard about me through word of mouth. 8 years on I am now a Student at Norwich University of the Arts, who is looking to take up her passion again whilst back home for the summer! I have experience with both cats and dogs and understand that every animal has its own set routine and boundaries. I am good at taking instructions and will take the best care of your lovely pet as possible! I have a part time job, mainly weekends, but I am always willing and able to fit my schedule to meet you and your pets needs! I follow the pets, and owners routine to the full extent. I am diligent to make sure that the animal is well taken care of and happy.

“Great sitter, my dog has medication and is elderly with a lot of quirks and Robin didn’t bat an eyelid, everything was brill! Great communication and pictures were sent throughout the day. I would use again!”
“Ada was absolutely fab! She came to house sit my dog whilst I was at work, and it went completely smoothly. I was really nervous about leaving my dog, but she was really reassuring, sent me lots of updates throughout the day and made sure my dog was happy and relaxed. I’m really pleased with how it went and have booked again with Ada! Yay my dog has a new friend!”

About: Looking for a loving, safe, and friendly home-from-home for your dog? You’ve come to the right place! I have always loved dogs and have a particular soft spot for French Bulldogs. Having owned and cared for Frenchies, I understand their unique personalities, needs, and all the little quirks that make them so special. Whether your dog loves cuddles on the sofa, playtime in the garden, or leisurely walks, I will make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and part of the family during their stay. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I provide plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and enrichment tailored to each dog’s individual needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I am happy to adapt routines to help them feel settled and relaxed. I live in a secure, dog-friendly home with access to lovely local walks and green spaces. Dogs are treated as family members here and will enjoy plenty of company, cuddles, and care throughout their stay. I will also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and well looked after. I am experienced with dogs of different ages and temperaments, including puppies and older dogs who may require a little extra care and patience. Whether it’s a weekend stay, day care, or longer booking, I aim to provide a positive and stress-free experience for both you and your dog. Information I’d Love to Know About Your Dog Please let me know about: * Their usual routine * Any dietary requirements or allergies * Medications they may need * Favourite toys, treats, and activities * Any behavioural quirks or anxieties * How they are around other dogs and people The more I know, the better I can make their stay feel just like home. 🐾 I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work part-time, with some days spent working from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care. This means your pet will receive lots of company, supervision, and attention throughout the day. I am available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks during evenings, weekends, and selected weekdays. I understand how important routine is for pets, so I always do my best to fit around their usual schedule and ensure they feel comfortable, settled, and well cared for while in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure, fully enclosed garden where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time and play. While I don’t currently have pets of my own at home, I have extensive experience caring for French Bulldogs through family members and have also looked after cats with a range of personalities and needs. With some days spent working from home, I can provide plenty of companionship and supervision. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and any special requirements. Whether it’s a playful Frenchie, an energetic pup, or an independent cat, your pet will be treated as part of the family and cared for with love, patience, and attention. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and video updates so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾

About: I have looked after dogs since I was 13 years old; walking, boarding and caring for. These were through my neighbours, friends and other companies. I thoroughly enjoy showing the dogs love and attention where their owners can’t and help the time pass better for them :) I am working 7 month contracts away with a period in between for rest so I have lots of free time out of my contract. There are many lovely parks around to take your fur babies and give them all the energy release they need. My garden is also fully enclosed with no other animals in the house to startle them.
About: About Me: I've had the privilege of caring for my own Border Collie since he was a puppy, starting when I was just 12 years old. Now at 23, my love for animals, especially dogs, has only grown. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to walk friends' dogs and care for many others around the world. Some of my most memorable experiences include looking after a 1-year-old Lab and his senior companion on a retreat in Costa Rica, as well as feeding stray dogs and puppies in Bali and Thailand. Though I am still in the early stages of professionally offering dog walking and day boarding services, my passion, hands-on experience, and empathy for animals guide me in providing the best care for your dog. I’m eager to continue learning and improving in my services, and I’m committed to giving each dog the attention and care they deserve. Services Offered: Dog Walking Day Boarding (at your home) House Sitting (at your home) While I currently can’t offer day boarding in my own home due to living at home with another dog, I’m more than happy to offer day boarding in the comfort of your home. I will also provide my weekly availability in the schedule section to ensure flexibility. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to discuss how I can assist you and your dog. I look forward to working with you! Please get in contact preferably a week in advance and then I can book days off however still get in contact if it’s a last minute slot as often times I can accommodate. I am currently available for dog walking, boarding and day care services from Monday - Thursday usually. Please feel free to reach out if these days also work for you, and I'll be happy to assist you with your dog care needs! I can’t currently offer day boarding in my own home as I am living in a staff block but I can offer day boarding, walking and day care in your own home :)
About: Since starting pet sitting in April'19, I have now completed over 157 weeks of care, from the -30'C Canadian winters to the near 50'C summer in Dubai, remote Caribbean island to the hustle of capital city. Dogs & cats are equally loved, from Mini Dachshund to Bernese Mountain dogs, sleepy Pug to energetic Collie pups. So many happy memories and stories to tell. I feel honored and proud of my 5* feedback & references which are all far more important than anything I could write in my profile, and I have completed all verification available to me on this forum. Please help me to help you & your furry friends whilst you are away. Get in touch and we can arrange a call, skype, What'sApp or Zoom to make sure we would be a perfect fit. Communication is key. During my career as a Quality Manager, I always operated with the upmost professionalism, with integrity and in an open & honest way, and endeavored to instill these values to all of my team. Your house sit would be no different. I have been used to global pet sits of 1 to 2 months at a time, but equally, as I type, I'm sharing the sofa with a new furry pal in Suffolk for the week. It is unlikely that I would take any offers below 7 days. I am looking for pet sits during vacation from work. As such, my schedule would be adaptable to best match that of your beloved pet. I'm happy to explore the local woods & surroundings for up to 3hrs, dependent on the needs of your dog, and would keep to all of their normal scheduled meal / rest times. I like to pet sit to be with the pets, it is that simple. I could fly away and lay on the beach for a week or so, or maybe take myself away to the nearest ski resort, but that is nowhere near enjoyable as plotting a route to explore the woods using Ordinance Survey Apps with a new pal by my side, or playing fetch, tug or grooming. And I don't know why, but a nice pint in a quintessential British pub always tastes better with a pal at your heels.
“Honestly can totally recommend Isaac and Amy to look after anyone’s pet. They are amazing. My dog is quite a handful but they were fantastic. My dog had a great time and I didn’t feel at all worried or concerned. Amy and Isaac are so professional and kept me updated with photos and messages. My dog has epilepsy and Isaac asked lots of questions and made sure he was prepared for any eventuality and administering medication. I’ll definitely be booking more trips away if Amy snd Isaac are free to look after my dog. X 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️”

“Hannah is absolutely wonderful. She looked after two of my dogs for 12 days at my house whilst I was on holiday and they had the best time. She came for a couple of walks beforehand to get to know them as they are a little particular about their human company and she won them over straight away. I have never felt more relaxed being away from them knowing they were being taken care of in their own home as well as I could do it myself. Hannah stuck to their routine, fed them their raw diet and all their supplements, provided enrichment activities, exercised them, and continued with their crate training as asked. She left the house spotlessly clean for me to return to, even washing all linens and towels. I think my dogs were more upset at her leaving than they were excited to see me return! I highly highly recommend booking Hannah for walks and holidays and everything in between, she's an excellent dog sitter and I will be booking with her again. Thank you so much Hannah, you're an absolute star.”

“Zuzanna is wonderful! Friendly, caring, responsible and flexible. She clearly enjoys looking after animals and was a pleasure to work with. Thank you - we will definitely be booking you again next time we are away”

About: Growing up our house was home to a number of different breeds of dogs that we loved and cared for very much. I've had a good exposure to varying temperaments and behaviours. Currently I'm a med student who attends university in Bristol Monday to Friday and the rest of my time is usually spent at home studying. I’m based in Bedminster but I have a car I can use if needed to drive out a little further for any dog walking or house-sitting requests.
About: With over six years of hands-on experience working on a petting farm from the age of 14 to 20, I’ve cared for a wide range of animals — from livestock to a variety of dog breeds. Growing up in a dog-loving home, especially with high-energy breeds like collies, has given me a deep understanding of canine behaviour, needs, and personalities. Whether it’s providing calm companionship or active playtime, I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I work full time as a teacher but I am free most weekends and evenings! This also means I’m off during school holidays all day so can cater for all pet needs in that time! I have a fenced yard with a border collie. Our home is dog and pet friendly! We live close to good walks for all the doggy walking needs!

I am currently working part time so i have plenty of availability and time needed to look after them. I’m also available most weekend and evenings. I have a fenced garden that has plenty of space and a sausage dog named Colin who loves the company and loves to play with other dogs.
About: I’ve had lots of pets since I was born from dogs and cats to lizards and rats. I have always loved being around animals, taking care of them and making them feel loved and comfortable :) Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life, I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, so my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walking, playtime, and cuddles. I’m used to early mornings, regular exercise, and keeping animals happy, healthy, and comfortable. I’m passionate about working with animals and plan to make pet care my full time career. In my home or yours I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved as if they were my own. I provide a secure environment, regular feeding, fresh water, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep routines consistent and ensure each pet’s needs are met whether that’s special diets, medication, or extra snuggles.

Rafael was fantastic with Albie! They kept in good communication before and during the sit, which really helped me feel reassured. It’s always so daunting leaving your pet with someone but Rafael made it really easy, and I’d definitely book with them again. They sent me pictures and updates and were super welcoming and friendly.

Raf was absolutely fantastic with our two cats. She bonded with Miso almost immediately, while Suki was a little more cautious at first. Raf was so patient and never pushed her, and by the end of the first week she’d completely won Suki’s trust, which says a lot! Raf was originally booked for two separate house sits with a gap in between, but we had an unexpected emergency and couldn’t get home when planned. Despite already having a busy schedule, she went above and beyond by fitting in drop-in visits to make sure our girls were looked after until we made it home. We’re incredibly grateful for everything Raf did and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Knowing our cats were so well cared for gave us one less thing to worry about during a very stressful time. Thank you, Raf!

What an incredible person to look after our babies. She was just so lovely and sent photos every single day, daily updates and we have come home to the most beautifully cleaned and well looked after home. Will 100% be using Nicola again and i cannot recommend enough.

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 Rossendale 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 Rossendale 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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 90% 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.
