About: I have a lovely senior dog of my own, a rescue that I have had for 10 years. I grew up with dogs and cats. I have also worked with horses at a horse riding school. I love animals and I have lots of experience in caring for them. Im a tattooist/creative and I’m currently working on a creative writing project at home so I have a lot of flexibility in terms of work schedule and location. I will be offering caring for your pets in your own home, visits in your own home or walks. I have worked in hospitality for over ten years while I was studying social work, now I’m a social worker but I’m taking time off while I do some writing. I will take care of your home just like I would take care of the venue at my hospitality jobs. I would be happy to keep your pet company while you’re at work or away, I can take them for lots of walks or minimal walks depending on their age, and I can give them lots of cuddles! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was just 3 years old and I absolutely adore them. I’ve always had a family dog and currently have a 12 year old dog who has experienced a number of health issues over the years, so I’m comfortable giving daily medication and providing extra care and attention when needed. I’m reliable, caring and patient, and I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own. Whether it’s an exciting walk, a drop-in visit for some company and cuddles, or simply making sure they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away, I’ll always make their wellbeing my priority. I live with my partner and we’re both huge dog lovers, so dogs are always made to feel welcome and loved. I currently have a very flexible schedule as have time away from work, so I’m available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and would love the company of some furry friends. I’m particularly flexible during the day at the moment, making it easy for me to fit around your dog’s individual routine and needs. When I return to work, I work from home two days a week and have good availability at weekends. On the three days I’m in the office, I finish at 4pm, so I’m also available for evening walks and drop-ins. I’m happy to work around your schedule wherever I can and will always make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, happy and comfortable. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and understand that every dog is different, with their own personality, routine and needs. I’m patient, attentive and always take the time to get to know each dog, their quirks and follow their owner’s instructions carefully. I’m experienced in caring for an older dog with ongoing health issues and giving daily medication, so I’m comfortable providing extra care when needed. For walks, I always prioritise safety and keep dogs secure and supervised, while making sure they have plenty of time to explore, sniff and enjoy themselves. During drop-in visits, I’ll provide lots of attention, cuddles and companionship, as well as making sure they have everything they need before I leave.

With the beach 5 minutes walk away and a beautiful park 2 minutes away, there's plenty to explore in the local area. Caring for Pets in My Home: In my home, safety is paramount. I've pet-proofed my living space to ensure it's a hazard-free zone for all animals. I follow a strict schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime, adapting it to each pet's needs to maintain their routine as closely as possible. I build trust with pets by creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I spend time getting to know each pet's personality and preferences, ensuring they feel comfortable and stress-free.

About: I have always been surrounded by many pets, having grown up on a small holding, with equine, sheep and poultry. Grew up with Golden Retrievers and smaller breeds. Attended Plumpton College to study Animal Management - qualified Level 3. I work from home on the days when pets are in my care. I work for the NHS as an Estate Manager, my work is very flexible therefore my schedule will be altered to suit the care and presence of your pet. I have a 3 bed home in Battle, 20 minute walk to the village, close the Netherfield woods and have access to a vehicle to walk at alternative locations.

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.

About: I've looked after dogs, cats, farm animals and other since I was a teenager (20+ yr experience). I've helped train puppies as well as caring for senior dogs and have had my own beautiful family of dogs ranging from larger dogs to tiny ones. All animals are different, generally the main theme is providing safety, fun, attention and care. I'm currently on a career break (a little over a decade running operations in London start ups) so I have flexible availability. I have a car, spend a lot of time outdoors and am generally quite relaxed. I follow any instruction given to keep both the pet and the home safe and cared for. At my own home, I have two lifts to access the floor (no stairs for senior dogs), windows are up high and kept on a Pendlay lock.
“Kiran popped in and did a house visit for Bob and even offered to come round and meet him first. I was kept well updated and Amy’s communication was brilliant too. Will definitely be booking again when needed”

“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.”

“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%”

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Rother
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!

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.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm.
