“This was my first time Using Lauren and Rover.com and I was very impressed. I needed to get in and out of Central London and that in itself was a challenge but Lauren made me happy that Archie was in good hands. She is punctual and a dog lover and just gets on with the job, Archie really liked Lauren and I will book again. I have no problem recommending Lauren to look after your dog. 5 Stars. Terry”

“I recently had the pleasure of using Amanda's services to take care of my two dogs in my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From our initial meeting, she put our worries at ease by answering all our questions and being very accommodating. It was clear that Amanda is a true animal lover with a genuine passion for taking care of pets. Throughout the time I was away, Amanda provided exceptional care, ensuring that my dogs were well-fed, exercised, and received plenty of attention and affection. One of my dogs is elderly and requires a bit more attention and special care, and Amanda handled him wonderfully. She followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to make sure both of my dogs were comfortable and happy. Amanda cared for my dogs in my home, and she also took great care of the place. I received regular updates, including photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing that my dogs were in good hands. It was evident from the photos that Amanda built a strong bond with my dogs. Not only did Amanda take excellent care of my dogs, but she also kept my home tidy and left everything in perfect order. It’s clear that Amanda is reliable, responsible, and dedicated to providing the best care possible. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Amanda, for giving my family the peace of mind to enjoy our time away knowing my dogs, especially my elderly one, and my home were in such capable hands!”

“Roxana looked after Henry very well and also had to deal with him eating a piece of clothing during the night. She quickly understood what had happened and reacted quickly by taking him to the vet. Luckily Henry hadn’t eaten too much clothing for it to cause a problem. But without Roxana’s prompt action it may have ended in a negative outcome one! It is the first time that we have used Roxana and will continue to use her to both dog sit and also to look after Henry for visits and breaks when we need help.”

“Harriet came over to look after our dog Jasper for the day and was great. He was very well looked after and we got regular updates on how he was getting on. Would definitely use again!”

“Rosco was suitably tired when we returned, indicating that he'd had lots of walks. Geoff respected our home and we wouldn't have known someone had been staying there. Geoff's definitely added to our regular "go to" list for next time.”

“My puppy had a fantastic time being looked after by Julia, she is so caring and sends lots of regular updates of walks and play time. I would recommend Julia to anyone, her love for dogs and taking great care of them is clear to see. My dog can’t wait to visit again!”

“Karen is a delight and the dogs absolutely love her. She is so capable and natural with them that I felt 100% happy whilst I was away knowing that the dogs would be well cared for and given lots of attention and cuddles. Karen sent many photographs which were so lovely to receive. When we came home, the house was spotless and the dogs seemed so happy. We have already booked Karen again for our ski holiday in February Thank you, Karen.”


About: Hello! I am a passionate animal lover who finds real joy in caring for cats or dogs. I can offer home sitting, boarding, drop in checks and general dog walking services in a safe, fun and loving way. Your dog will enjoy walks in their local area or afar if they can travel in a car (dog hammock for full back seat and dog seat belt are provided for my car), playtime, cuddles on the couch and plenty of attention in a calm environment. Have looked after friends dogs and cats over many years, more regularly in the last two years covering drop ins, boarding, sitting and dog walking. Each time the pets are very happy and content. I currently work remotely from home 3 days a week with 2 days office based so my routine is based around: - AM walk - PM walk Depending on your distance from me and the booking requirements (boarding, sitting, drop-in etc) variations to the above can change and are flexible. - Car travel I provide a fully waterproof back seat hammock and dog seat belt should your dog require exercise at a location that is beyond a reasonable walking distance. - Keep dogs on leads at all times, albeit on an extended/retractable lead if available. Willing to take off lead if permission is provided and your pet shows sufficient recall to me. - Before any booking is confirmed, I will suggest a meet n greet with you and your furry friend to build trust and familiarity where we can then go over specific requirements and personality quirks.
“April’s warmth immediately put us at ease during a meet and greet and then when she looked after our boy was really communicative, lots of pictures and updates. We’d happily use again for sure.”

“Emma was fantastic with our dog whilst we were away, taking him on long walks giving us daily updates and photos. We were reassured knowing how well he was being cared for. Would highly recommend booking Emma .”

About: I love dogs and enjoy taking care of them. I used to have a dog of my own, and I’ve often helped by dog-sitting for friends. Not only do I enjoy walking dogs—I love playing with them too. They’re always happiest when they’re active and engaged. I’ve always had a strong affection for animals in general, which also inspires my creative side: writing stories and poems about the animals and the nature. At home, I have plenty of space for dogs to play—my garden is expansive, and I have access to around 100 acres of private land, including woodlands and meadows. It’s a dog’s paradise! After exploring, exercising, and having fun, they settle in easily and sleep soundly. I have time at weekends, and most of bank holidays. As well as I can ocassionally look after dogs during weekdays. I was sitting dogs for up to 2 weeks on a few occasions. I have big fenced garden and I have space at home to accommodate dogs beds. I have extra blankets and toys. I play with them in the garden or take them to the private woodlands.

Charlie came to stay at our home over , looking after our dog and two cats she was absolutely brilliant. I would highly recommend Charlie for pet sitting needs. This is the first time that we have used to have a sitter and it won’t be the last knowing both the animals and their home is being cared for was fantastic. Thank Charlie we will see you again!

Andrii, provided an excellent service. First & foremost he was very friendly, seemed to be a genuine animal lover and asked the right questions. In addition, he was punctual, considerate and communicated with us frequently throughout the day. We will definitely be booking him again.

Well I did not have to worry, the girls looked after the pup and the house . Got home after a couple of days away and pup was happy and clearly been spoilt, house was tidy and so we were happy. Very happy with the girls and the way they looked after our dog and our home. Would highly recommend them and we will definitely be using again .
Rebooked Maryanne for a house sit with 4 month old puppy. Lunas needs were met, she was taken for 2 beach walks which she loves. Communication continued through the weekend. Nervous to have someone stay at my house, but she was clean tidy and professional. Would highly recommend and book again.

Lauren and Holly were fantastic dog sitters for our rescue puppy. They really took the time to stick to his usual routine, making sure he was walked at his normal times, fed properly, and given plenty of attention. It was clear they genuinely cared about him and made the effort to keep things consistent so he felt comfortable. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’d definitely use Lauren and Holly again and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring dog sitters.

We had an excellent experience with Tiffany and couldn’t recommend her highly enough. Our older dog, Blue, is on multiple medications, and Tiffany followed his routine perfectly with real care and attention. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Blue was clearly happy, relaxed, and very well cared for—and our home was left absolutely spotless. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Tiffany again. Highly recommended.

Luiza was really good looking after Bella. She is liable and trustworthy person. She has a great knowledge about dogs, she gave us some tips about food and other things. Bella was very happy with her today. For sure we will request her services again in the future.

Alex was absolutely F A N T A S T I C !!! She was very professional from day one, we couldn’t have ask for a better person to look after our cat. She sent us updates daily and it was such a pleasure to see our cat is relaxed and they are enjoying each other’s company. Upon return from our holiday we could tell straight away our cat is happy and relaxed. Alex looked after the house as well, it was such a pleasure to come home and find everything nice and tidy! Can’t recommend her enough!

Isabella was really great while house sitting our furbabies. She is extremely calm and communication since day 1 was really good. Sunny and Luna were extremely rested and had some fun games for enrichment as well. We will definitely be contacting Isabella again next time we need.
