“Ben was brilliant with Mushu and a massive help to me at short notice! Ben had brilliant communication and ensured I was kept up to date. I would recommend Ben to anyone looking for someone to look after their dog. Thank you!”

“I cannot recommend Holly enough! She was absolutely incredible with my two cats from start to finish. She was so attentive, genuinely engaged with them during playtime, and even brought toys to keep them entertained and happy. It was clear she really cared about them and took the time to understand their personalities and needs. Her communication was excellent throughout,I received regular photo and video updates which honestly helped so much when I was missing them. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing they were happy, comfortable, and so well looked after. She was reliable, thoughtful, and professional the entire time, and I never once had to worry while I was away. I’m incredibly grateful for the care she gave them and would absolutely trust her again in a heartbeat ☺️”

Whether your dog is a bouncy puppy, an energetic powerhouse, a reactive rescue, or a gentle senior who just wants to snooze, we have the hands-on experience to provide the ultimate tailored care.

Caring for animals from morning until night—handling difficult walks, precise feeding routines, separation anxiety, or end-of-life care—is second nature to us. Furthermore, we handle your home with the utmost diligence. My TrustedHouseSitters and Airbnb profiles demonstrate that I am a considerate and tidy housekeeper. Having previously worked as a janitor, I am incredibly thorough. I have a green thumb for plants, prioritize your home's security, and am always happy to perform routine maintenance. Returning a home in the same or better condition than when we arrived is a point of strong personal pride. 🐕 Our Hall of Fame: Pets We've Loved Our history of raising our own pets and caring for others is exhaustive, covering a massive range of temperaments, strength, and confidence levels. You can check out some fun videos I've made while sitting on Instagram. Pets We've Owned Over the years we have raised West Highland Terriers, Shiba Inus, Yorkshire Terriers, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, a Rottweiler, a Golden Retriever, a German Shepherd, cats (including a Russian Blue), chinchillas, and even a frog! Global Sits: Large & Powerful Breeds We are confident handlers for big dogs. Our sits include Great Danes in Australia, German Shepherd/Husky mixes in the UK, a Labrador/GSD mix in California, Golden Labs in the USA, Rough Collies, Boxers, and many more. Global Sits: Small & Medium Breeds We have cared for Bull Terriers, Basset Hounds, Bichon Frises, French Bulldogs, Westies, Shih Tzus, Poodles, Pomeranians, Dandy Dinmonts, and Chihuahuas. Feline & Exotic Friends We have looked after countless cats across Thailand, the UK, and the USA, plus multiple rabbits, lizards, and chinchillas globally. ...And So Many More! Please note, the lists above are just a snapshot! We have cared for so many more breeds and mixes than we could possibly fit into this biography. Whatever your dog's breed, background, or quirks, chances are we have the hands-on experience to make them feel completely at home. We are the sitters you can rely on to give you double the assurance of anyone else on the market. We don't just watch your pets; we welcome them into our family. I am self-employed with minor side gigs, enjoy quiet evenings in and regular trips out into nature. I'm a very homey person and will be with and available for your animals the entire time I am with them. Providing pets with exercise, love, safety and my undivided attention is something I dedicate myself to. None of my side gigs are time intensive so feel assured I'm an extremely present sitter. Daily videos, pictures, updates and even walk tracking reports will give you complete peace of mind that your beloved pet is receiving above and beyond what mum/dad paid for. Just reach out and let's chat about your needs! My goal when house sitting is to provide COMPLETE peace of mind to travelers and pet parents who need truly loving replacements! As someone who loves going abroad and has my own dogs, I understand fully just how difficult it can be to balance the two. Trusting your beloved family members to anyone is always nerve wracking and full of uncertainty. That's what I'm here remove! I know just how valuable complete peace of mind is when you're travelling. How transformative it can be as a pet parent who wants to be present during their trip away. I also understand that achieving complete peace of mind is different for each parent. Discovering and encouraging parents to share every detail of their hopes, wants and expectations during a sit is my motto. Nothing is 'too much' to ask when it comes to achieving your complete peace of mind. Be as picky as you like. I am here for YOU! In regards to safety, trust and environment. As sitters we know that some pet parents may want cameras inside or outside the house. While I have no issue with this, I do require for that they be disclosed and depending on their location, disconnected during the sit. I've experienced cameras in bathrooms before and noone wants to see that! 😆

About: Hi, I’m Leah, and pictured with me is my beloved Miniature Pinscher, Lilly, who sadly passed away in November. Dogs have been at the center of my life since the day I was born, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up in Ireland, our home was always filled with animals, and that lifelong passion eventually grew into professional dog boarding and pet care. After losing Lilly, opening our home in Bexhill to dogs has become a deeply meaningful way for me to continue doing what I love most — providing a safe, calm, loving, and enriching environment for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have hands-on experience raising dogs from birth and professionally managed a daily dog boarding business in Ireland from the age of 18. Over the past year, I have also worked alongside a highly rated professional pet sitter, helping manage a wide range of sits involving everything from young puppies to senior dogs with complex medical and behavioural needs. I am confident caring for: * Puppies requiring structure, routine, and positive reinforcement * Senior dogs needing patience, gentle handling, and medication administration * Dogs with separation anxiety or reactivity * Large and powerful breeds, as well as small and delicate companions Throughout my life, I’ve personally owned and cared for a wide variety of breeds, including Jack Russells, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Toy Poodles, a German Shepherd, an Alaskan Malamute, and Lilly, my Miniature Pinscher. I also helped raise three generations of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, giving me extensive experience with dogs through every stage of life. One thing owners quickly notice about me is how much pride I take in creating a clean, calm, and welcoming environment. I’m an incredibly homely person and genuinely enjoy maintaining an organised and immaculate space, whether dogs are staying in our home or I’m caring for them in yours. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust completely, and I treat every home and animal with the utmost respect and care. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable. I provide reliable communication, daily updates, and plenty of photos and videos so you can fully relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and being treated like family. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your dog and discuss how I can help provide the best possible care while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide dogs with plenty of time, attention, companionship, and structure throughout the day. I’m highly flexible with my availability and can accommodate boarding, daycare, walks, drop-ins, and house sitting depending on your needs. Because I genuinely love having dogs around, your pet will never simply be “fit in” around my schedule — their comfort, routine, exercise, and wellbeing will always be a priority. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or prefers a quieter, calm environment, I’m very happy to adapt to what suits them best. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is the most important part of pet care for me. I understand that every dog is different, so I always take time to learn their routines, boundaries, personality, and individual needs to help them feel secure and comfortable. My home in Bexhill is clean, peaceful, and highly organised, with plenty of attention, affection, play, rest, and supervision throughout the day. I am extremely attentive when it comes to safety during walks, feeding, medication administration, introductions, and maintaining routines exactly as owners request. I have a fenced Italian stone garden with access to the seafront and cooler woodland walks and open field space. My car has a dog seat for smaller breeds, and safety buckle leads to ensure their security while travelling in my car. I also have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and pets with medical needs, so I’m confident adapting to more complex care requirements when needed. If caring for your pet in your own home, I will always treat your space with complete respect and maintain the highest standards of cleanliness, communication, and reliability. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and cared for while you’re apart.
“I found Amy through this app as I am new to the area and needed a one off check in, she was great with my large GSD, she communicated well, kept me updated and put me at ease leaving my beloved pup for a day out. I would definitely use her again.”

“Sam was so amazing with our old girl. She was on time, trustworthy and reliable. Her updates coming through while I was sat in the office absolutely made my day. She even took her for some doggy ice cream on a hot day 🥹🥰 Thank you Sam 💙”

“Thank you so much Sophia for your care of Aleta. She obviously loved every minute of her time with you and I was so grateful when I was unable to return as expected and you looked after her for much longer. I would highly recommend Sophia.”

“I picked Brenna because she lives locally, but have really lucked out. I adopted Suri - a retired racer geyground - two weeks ago and we are still establishing our rhythms. It is obvious Brenna has a huge amount of patience and love for dogs and I feel confident leaving Suri in her care. It’s been nice getting the updates through the Rover app on what they’ve been up to. It’s been nice seeing them bond with each visit. Would recommend Brenna 100%”

About: I've got 10 years of working with pets but it is personal. I am flexible to walk or sit with dogs/cats all morning and afternoon on weekdays and all day on weekends as I have an evening job. I am flexible on cancellation periods as long as its not last minute. I do drive so I am able to travel if needed, rates are flexible depending on how long I am spending with pets but it won't be much more if needed to stay longer then expected. Will listen to any specific needs and will cater to them e.g walking a dog away from others. Best way of communication is through phone calls and text messages. I will reply as soon as I can normally within the hour.

Emma looked after my cat Elcky while I was away, and I honestly couldn't have wished for anyone better. From our first conversation, she was warm, reassuring, and clearly passionate about caring for animals, which immediately put my mind at ease. It was very reassuring knowing Elcky was being looked after. When I came home, Elcky was happy, relaxed, and her usual self. It's obvious that Emma genuinely cares about the pets she looks after and treats them as if they were her own. I am incredibly grateful for the care and kindness she showed, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and truly wonderful pet sitter. Thank you, Emma!
Ben was recommended to me recently and I’ve got to say I’m so pleased. He popped in to check up on our Pup and gave her tonnes of fuss and played with her too, which is so much better than previous check ins I’ve had which have just been a tick box exercise. He even sent photos and you can see she was having a wonderful time with Ben! I will certainly be asking for Ben’s help again soon. Thanks!

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.

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.
