“We were away for two weeks during the UK heatwave, so I felt quite anxious about our cats back home but Zoey went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, safe and comfortable throughout. It's so clear how much she genuinely cares about animals and that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated every single day with photos and videos which we really appreciated. When our journey home was unexpectedly delayed, Zoey even offered to pop back over to check on them, which was such a thoughtful gesture and really showed how much she cares. We came home to two happy and healthy cats and I couldn't be happier with the service. We wouldn't hesitate to book Zoey again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you so much Zoey!”


“Rhiann was wonderful! She communicated with us and kept us updated while we were away. She sent lots of photos and videos which we appreciated very much. Wouldn’t hesitate to contact Rhiann again next time we go away. ❤️”

“Stacey is a lovely lady and takes care of Bella in a professional manner. Bella loves her already and there is nothing that Stacey won't do for us. We are very lucky to have found her.”

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my unique blend of experience and passion for all stages of a dog's life. I grew up around dogs and now that I have moved out I am really missing their company so would love to help out. I currently work from home so I will be at home nearly every day so I will be able to give my full attention to the animal. I have a fenced garden where the animals can go, however I love long walks so they will get plenty of outdoors time. We live in a one bed house so will have space for a crate
“Fantastic sitter! Between her and Alonso, they’re very flexible with timings and do such a good job at entertaining and looking after my puppy River. They leave the place spotless and overall have Rivers wellbeing in mind with anything they do.”


About: I've taken care of dogs “professionally” ever since I’ve been 14 years old. This also doesn’t include the fact I have grown up with them during childhood. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have a senior dog myself since she’s been a puppy I’ve been there for all her care and support necessary including surgery recovery. When your dog stays with me, you can expect plenty of care, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any other needs you’ve shared with me. I am home full time I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is happy and settled. Before the booking, we can go over your dog’s routine, personality, likes and dislikes, and anything else that will help them feel at home. My goal is to make their time with me as relaxed, fun, and comfortable as possible! I have a large, fully fenced garden where dogs can enjoy some secure outdoor time, as well as plenty of space inside the house. My own dog, Narla, stays downstairs, which means visiting dogs can be kept separate when needed. There is also a safe, comfortable space upstairs where dogs can have some quiet time away from Narla and relax in their own space. I’m happy to use a crate if your dog is crate-trained and you provide their usual crate. I can also provide one-on-one walks, so dogs can be walked separately if they are more comfortable that way or if this is part of their normal routine. I’ll always take your dog’s individual personality, routine, and comfort level into account and make sure they have a safe and calm environment throughout their stay.
“Jessica stepped in at short notice twice for us this week. Ness our rescue working Cocker who doesn’t always adjust quickly to new people absolutely loves her. Will have NO hesitation booking Jessica again.”

About: Since moving out of our respective family homes, we hugely miss our family dogs and do not have a dog of our own. We miss our precious pooches and therefore want to lend a hand to those in the local area by offering sitting and boarding others dogs who may need it. We have an average sized garden which is secure, plenty of places to walk, and a good sized kitchen/living area for larger dogs. We are firm believers that dogs need lots of cuddles and so do not mind them being on the sofa with us. We both work full time however 2 days a week each from home and so are flexible. With enough notice, we are at home most weekends. We have a fenced garden and plenty of indoor space for larger breeds where needed. We have two bedrooms upstairs and don’t mind dogs being on our furniture (given that those mucky paws are cleaned and dry).

About: Hey, I’m Charlotte 🙂! I’m a lifelong dog lover with previous professional experience running my own dog-sitting business for 4 years, and I’m delighted to be getting back into it alongside my NHS role. I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds, ages and personalities, including dogs who need a little extra reassurance and support. I’m experienced in supporting dogs with anxiety, nervousness and medication needs, and I always take the time to understand each dog’s individual routine, personality and needs. For me, dog sitting is about much more than simply providing a walk or popping in. I’m passionate about giving every dog safe, loving and genuinely attentive care, with plenty of interaction, enrichment, exercise and affection. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative and professional, and I’ll keep you updated so you can relax knowing your dog is happy and well cared for. Whether your dog loves a long adventure, prefers gentle local walks, needs extra reassurance, or simply enjoys some company and cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to them. Experienced • Reliable • Attentive • Dog-obsessed 🐶 I currently live in Rugby in a house with a garden. I am available Friday - Sunday, when I will be able to offer uninterrupted care for your pet. I will adjust my routine to help each dog feel as at home as possible. If they are very active this will involved long walks and adventures. If they prefer more of a stroll I live by a beautiful little park we can potter around. Cuddles are always available. And I will follow their usuals feeding/ daily schedule. I love getting to know animals and learning about their own little characters and what works best for them. I have been a pet owner myself so I understand how important it is that our pets get the best care from whoever is looking after them. I spend any spare time I have studying and researching animal behaviour and training techniques. I have worked for various voluntary organisations with animals, in other countries and the UK. Whilst at uni I volunteered at the Manchester Dogs Home and learnt so much about dogs and just loved every minute spent there and getting to help wonderful dogs find the perfect home.

Ive had many animals in the past and still do with a Dog, Cat and Rabbit in my household. I have a friendly, creative and compassionate personality. Ive always wanted to get into animal work of my own such as animal sitting, i love seeing all the different smiles. Im happy to do daily visits or house sitting to suit your needs. I love meeting new furry babies and will do a meet up before confirming the bookings I am happy to base your needs around your animals needs, whether thats securing them in the house or garden. Feeding them on times that suit you and cleaning up after those messy times.

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have cared for pets throughout my life. I currently have two cats of my own, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means feeding, playing, cuddles, cleaning up or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and affection I give my own. I work from home regularly, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my routine. I’m available for drop-in visits during the week as well as at weekends, and I’m happy to work around your cat’s usual feeding times and routine wherever possible. I know how nerve-racking it can be trusting someone else with your cat and your home, so I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat both with respect. I’m very attentive to cats’ behaviour and will make sure they’re eating, drinking and using their litter tray normally, as well as giving them playtime, cuddles or space depending on their personality. I’m also very careful around doors and windows, particularly with indoor cats. I’ll always provide plenty of updates and send lots of photos, so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and being well looked after while you’re away.
About: Ever since I was young I’ve loved growing up with pets, in the past few years I helped my elderly neighbours to walk and feed there cats and dogs on occasion even clean the chickens out! I work full time but I am more than willing to work around my days and shifts to accommodate your pets wants and needs at any hours. My work hours are Mondays 8-4 Tuesdays 8-4 Wednesdays 13:30 - 21:15 Fridays 05:30 - 13:30 and Saturdays 8-4. I am more than happy to visit early, late and on my lunch breaks. Your standard care approach. Feeding, walking, brush downs even the dreaded bath time we all fear! Unless its my cats then I wont force them in the bath 😁

About: I have always looked after animals since a young age. I have a family Springador who is now 9 years old and a 2 year old Cockapoo who is also a family dog (but do not live with me). I miss going on more regular dog walks so I am looking forward to meeting lots of new fur-friends! I love being outdoors and regularly go on walks - so why not exercise the dogs at the same time! I work from home so I enjoy getting out and about during the week and at weekends. I work from home 4 days a week and regularly go on walks either in the morning, at lunch or in the evening (depending on the weather). I am also around at weekends. I have a secure grass garden and hard floors downstairs. There is also space for a crate or dog bed and the house can be made dog-friendly when required.
About: As a dentist and MSc Global Health student, I'm calm, responsible, and attentive to detail. I've loved animals since childhood, and caring for them is a genuine passion rather than just a job. I take the time to understand each pet's routine and personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care is part of my daily routine—I schedule walks, playtime, feeding, and rest consistently, ensuring each pet receives attention, love, and balanced care every week. I provide a safe, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard and two gentle dogs for company. Crating available if needed, ensuring comfort, safety, and trust.
About: I love my dogs more than life. I really believe these are not just pets, but family members and thus I know how heartbreaking it is when you have to leave your dog alone even for a quick run to the store. We would like to help your dog with not feeling alone. I am a dog mom of 2 miniature dachshunds and I know how horrible separation anxiety is, thus I would like to give your dog the possibility to ease the feeling. I do not leave my dogs alone, thus I am taking dog care extremely important. I am working hybrid. I will only offer daycare or boarding on days I am home with my own dogs. My dogs are very friendly and very playful. But an initial meeting is required to make sure everyone is happy. I go on 2 long walks daily out to exhaust them. We have plenty of toys and enjoy some cuddles as well as playtime together. I live in a house with a fenced garden and I installed a doggy door, so my dogs have access to it 24/7. As I have dachshunds, we have plenty of ramps and doggy steps to ensure their backs are protected. My dogs are fully vaccinated including kennel cough.

My job means I’m organised, responsible and used to following routines, which I know is really important when caring for someone’s pet.

I’m happy caring for older pets, supporting medication routines where needed, and providing a safe, loving environment while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and happiness will always be my priority, and I’ll treat them as if they were my own 😊 Also available on bank holidays and most half terms! I’m currently available throughout the summer holidays and have lots of flexibility for pet care, including mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends. I’ll be away from 15th–18th August, but otherwise I’m happy to discuss bookings and find a time that works for you and your pet.

Bay was fabulous. She looked after Sushi really well, accompanied by the adorable Arbie. Forever thankful for care she did for Sushi, including administering medicine on his food and keeping an eye on him. Sushi was shy at first and Bay didnt force him to come out of his shell - she was incredibly patient with him. Will be booking again 😁

So glad that we booked Adam to look after our cat whilst we were away! He was great at keeping in touch, sending messages and photos and was very gentle with our nervous cat. He always arrived when he said he would and was very reliable. Would recommend Adam and will book again :)

I am so happy with how Claire looked after my aged cat, Meem. She was so kind and thoughtful, making sure he had his medication and letting me know every day with texts and photos how he was doing. I had been really worried about leaving him, but it was a relief to have Claire look after him so well. I will definitely want Claire to look after Meem in the future and highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rugby on Rover is £14 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £10 and £22 per Visit.
sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
Yes. There are up to 2,780 pet sitters offering care in and around Rugby. To find a sitter who is available during your working hours, enter your address, select the days and time slots when you need care, and review matching local profiles.
Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.
You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.
Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
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.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
