About: I offer different kinds of walks, catered to your dogs needs, whether a quick pop in, a sniff walk or a ramble in their favourite wood. I am currently undertaking a pet first aid course to be able to offer that extra peace of mind for your pet. I will happily send over lots of photos and videos of your pet having the best time 😊 I am also an avid cat lover, having been the butler to my rescue boy, Floof for 8 years. I have had cats in my life growing up and once took in a mama and her 3 babies, whilst having 2 already established in my house. It was chaos and I loved every second I have also been DBS checked. I currently work 9-5 but I am up with the birds, so can happily do early morning visits and walks. I can come straight after work for a longer visit or walk if needed I prefer to care for your pets in your own home, giving them the security and familiarity they need. I am happy to take them on their regular walks or home visits.

About: Hi! I’m a caring and responsible dog lover who has been a dedicated dog owner since April 2020. Although I don’t have formal pet sitting experience, I have hands-on experience caring for my own dogs every day — including raising a few newborn puppies. This has made me especially patient, gentle, and attentive to dogs’ needs at every stage of life. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I will treat your dog like my own family member, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. Pet care is already part of my daily life as a dog owner, so I easily incorporate it into my routine. I am available after 4:30pm on weekdays and all day on weekends. I also work from home one day between Tuesday and Thursday, which means I can offer daytime care and keep your dog company instead of leaving them alone. I have a flexible schedule during these times and can provide reliable, attentive care, ensuring your pet receives plenty of companionship, supervision, and love. I specialise in caring for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. By keeping your pet in a familiar environment, I help reduce stress and maintain their normal routine. I carefully follow all instructions, stay attentive to their behaviour, and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times. This approach is especially beneficial for dogs who are anxious, shy, or simply prefer staying in their own space. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and video updates for your peace of mind.

About: My name is Rhiann and I am 32 years old. I live in Rugby and have been caring for pets for around 7 years officially, however have been helping friends and family out since I was 16! I can provide lots of references from current and past pet owners who have used my service. I am friendly, reliable and easy going- no job is too big or too small, I will endeavour to fulfil any requirements you may have! I am very flexible so will always try my best to fit your requirements into my daily schedule to the best of my ability. No job is too big or too small, I treat all pets like my own and endeavour to send photos and videos to owners every single visit. I regularly had repeat clients and look forward to seeing my furry friends time and time again! To chat, please get in touch! :) I will always aim to visit your pets between 7am and 9am on my way to my main job as a primary school teacher. I will ensure pets are fed and left with clean water bowls and litter trays for the day. I am happy to stay and play/have cuddles (if this is something your cats enjoy of course!) before heading off for the day. I will then aim to return between 5pm and 7pm for evening checks. Cats will be fed, litter cleaned and water refreshed. This is my main opportunity to spend some time with the kitties that need it, and it’s the part of the day I enjoy the most! I can administer mediation and leave treats at the discretion of the owner. Also happy to do little jobs such as draw curtains/blinds, open or close cat flaps, but bins out etc! I will always follow the instructions of the pet owner to ensure the animals usually daily routine is adhered to to the best of my ability. No request is too big or too small; if it’s what the pet needs I’ll be happy to oblige!

“Jessica so obviously loves pooches! Her updates made us feel relaxed about having left Ness for the first time. Will have no hesitation booking her again so we can go away in the knowledge our baby will be very well looked after and snuggled😍🐶”

About: I have a lifelong passion for dogs and years of hands-on experience with various breeds, from small companions to large, powerful dogs. As a proud owner of a well-trained XL Bully, I understand the importance of discipline, patience, and safety during walks. ​My approach is focused on making every walk a positive experience, ensuring your pet gets the exercise and mental stimulation they need. I am reliable, punctual, and comfortable handling dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. ​Whether it's a calm stroll through the park or an energetic walk, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I'm fully committed to following your specific instructions and routine to keep your furry friend happy and healthy! I am currently dedicated full-time to pet care, which means I have total flexibility to accommodate your dog's schedule. Whether it's early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or weekend boarding, I am always available. Your dog will receive my full attention and plenty of exercise throughout the day, as I can easily plan my routine around your pet's needs. Your pet's safety and well-being are my main priorities. I have a secure, fenced garden where dogs can play and stretch their legs safely. I own one friendly dog who is great with company, but I also have a crate available if your pet prefers their own space or needs to rest undisturbed. I am very responsible and experienced with breed-specific safety requirements, ensuring a calm and controlled environment for every dog I look after.

“Plans change and Meg went to stay with Gary and his wife and three dogs . She was well looked after and was taken for a walk with the other dogs. I highly recommend Gary a very polite kind gentleman.”

About: Hi! I am a friendly, caring and reliable professional. I recently moved to Rugby from London, where I looked after lots of cats in my local area through Cat in a Flat. I grew up with animals and have had pets all of my life. I have lovely (and sometime mischievous) ginger cat of my own at home but I love to make other feline friends! I am looking forward to hearing from you!

About: Having had rescued dogs throughout my whole life, I understand each dogs needs are varied and the wide responsibilities that comes with that. I have masses of experiences in walking family dogs and looking after them independently. I have pet sat for many friends and feel I am truly reliable and can be trusted. I have recently moved to the area to be closer to my family, and have full availability for looking after any pet needs. As I only work from home for a few hours per week, I can be available what you are at your full time job and look after your pet. I do not currently have any ability to sit any dogs in my home. In an owners home, I will make sure the pet is always well looked after, with regular walks, lots of attention and well timed feeding.

About: I’ve had dogs all throughout my childhood, and now I have moved out of home and bought my own place, I’m looking to help others with their furry bestie. I work from home during the week on a flexible work pattern, so I’m able to pop out and attend to your dogs needs when necessary. I have a fenced garden (with grass!) and a camera outside the house for extra protection. I work downstairs so your dog will never feel like they are alone.

About: I have been taking care of pets, my own and clients, for 10+ years. I’ve taken care of every animal type from dogs and cats and other animals I’m also well versed in medication administration. Please refer to my calendar for availability or feel free to send a message to ask about schedules or for any questions you have :) Currently unable to provide sitting for pets in my own home due to having a small space. But I am more than happy to take care of your babies in your home where they will likely feel more comfortable anyway!

“Once again Chris and Colin rise above all other sitters. There is not one trepidation leaving our Husky with them. I almost hate to post this (our own selfish reasons), but book early as their sitting schedule books up well into to new year. You will be glad you did.”

“Highly recommend Laure-Jo. We felt confident that our dog Remy was safe, and well cared for while we away. This was the 1st time for us with Rovers and Laure-Jo. Great communication, regular updates and photos. Will definitely book her again! Annie & Jon”

“Thank you so much for looking after our cats at such short notice! They were immediately settled and comfort with you both. We loved the twice daily updates and all the photos of them.”

About: I’ve had cats since I was 9 years old and have spent over 10 years pet sitting for friends and family. I also grew up around dogs and have experience with different sizes and temperaments. Since I was 14, I’ve worked at a wildlife sanctuary caring for animals of all kinds. Alongside pet sitting, I work part-time in funeralcare, so I understand the importance of trust, reliability and compassion. I started pet sitting professionally because my son is sadly allergic to cats and dogs, so this allows me to still spend time doing something I genuinely love. I offer calm, caring in-home pet sitting, overnight stays and drop-in visits, with regular updates to help owners feel reassured while away. I currently work part-time Wednesday to Friday from 9am–5pm, but I’m still available for lunchtime visits and evening care on those days. From Saturday to Tuesday, I have much more flexibility and can offer multiple visits, walks or check-ins throughout the day if needed. I’m also available for overnight stays any night of the week, although weekends (Friday–Monday) are usually the easiest for me to accommodate. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets and home in someone else’s care, so I always aim to provide a calm, respectful and reliable experience. Your pets’ safety and comfort will always be my priority, and I’ll follow their usual routines as closely as possible to help them feel settled while you’re away. I will always treat your home with care and respect, keeping things clean, secure and exactly as you left them. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured that your pets are happy, safe and well cared for.

“Martina is our new angel! She was amazing from before her dates even started and only continued to amaze there after! Martina came out and walked with the dogs before the start date so that they felt more comfortable when we left. She actually came over at 2:30am when we left so they’d be less stressed as wee left, even though I assured her it wasn’t necessary. She went above and beyond in every interaction she had with the dogs and us. Martina provided comprehensive updates everyday, which is was very reassuring for us whilst we were away. She even noticed medical requirements that arose on one of my dogs and after consulting me, started to provide care according to my wishes. Even kept the house clean when we said she didn’t need to. Cannot recommend enough, one of the most conscientious dog carers we have ever used and I’ll definitely be leaning on her for dog walks and boardin in the future as the dogs clearly love her. Many thanks Martina”
