About: What sets me apart is the range of hands-on experience I’ve had with animals. I worked in a vet clinic for a month and have volunteered at rescues such as Moohaven and Guardian Angel Bird Sanctuary, which gave me experience with animals of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve also cared for a variety of pets at home and through volunteering — from dogs and cats to chickens and turtles — so I’m confident handling different needs and routines. Growing up with two dogs and a cat of my own has also given me the patience and understanding to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I currently have a fairly flexible routine, making it easy for me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting. I enjoy spending my free time with animals, so fitting pet care into my day feels natural. I’m happy to work around your schedule and make sure your pets get the time, attention, and care they need. For drop-ins, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, a potty break, and some playtime or cuddles so they feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I always check that everything is safe and secure before I leave. For dog walks, I focus on giving each dog the right balance of exercise and fun, whether that’s a brisk walk or a slower pace for older dogs. I keep walks safe by using secure leads, being aware of surroundings, and tailoring the walk to each dog’s needs and energy level
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life, and I currently have two cats of my own. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I offer drop-in visits, house sitting and day care in your own home. I’m happy caring for cats, puppies, kittens, senior pets and friendly dogs, and I can follow your pet’s routine, including giving oral medication if you show me how. I know every pet is different, so whether yours wants lots of fuss or prefers their own space, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after while you’re away. Because I work from home, I’m able to be flexible and work around your pet’s routine. I can offer morning, afternoon or evening visits, as well as house sitting and day care in your home. Weekend availability is usually not a problem either, so I’m happy to help whenever I can. I know how important it is for pets to stay in a familiar environment, so I’ll always respect their routine and your home. Before every booking, I’d love to learn about your pet’s personality, favourite activities and anything that helps them feel comfortable. I’ll keep you updated throughout my visits, so you’ll never have to wonder how they’re doing.
About: I’m a second-year veterinary medicine student who has grown up with dogs and cats and I have experience volunteering at kennels. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to providing patient, loving care tailored to each individual. I’m a veterinary university student home for the summer, so my availability may vary from week to week. I’m available most days and keep my calendar updated regularly. As part of my university placement, I’m also volunteering at a veterinary practice, which may affect my availability during some weeks. I’m passionate about providing safe, compassionate care for every pet. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have experience caring for dogs through my volunteer work at kennels. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I’ll treat your pet with the same care, patience, and attention I would give my own.
About: I've grown up around dogs all my life and they've always been part of my family. While I haven't owned a dog myself as an adult, I regularly care for my sister's dog, both in her home and in my own flat, so I'm comfortable with day-to-day routines, walks, feeding, playtime and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I work remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for pets. This means I can accommodate daytime walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules and toilet breaks, rather than being limited to mornings and evenings. For dogs boarding with me, they will have company for most of the day and won't be left alone for long periods. I can provide regular walks, playtime and attention alongside maintaining their usual routine. I'm also available for house sitting and can work remotely from your home, allowing me to spend more time with your pet and minimize disruption to their normal environment and schedule. Your pet's safety, comfort and wellbeing are my top priorities. I live in a first-floor flat in a quiet area and take care to provide a calm and safe environment for any dog in my care. Although I do not have a garden, I live next to a canal, with plenty of nearby green space and walking routes, making it easy to provide regular exercise, enrichment and outdoor time throughout the day. As I work remotely, I am able to keep a close eye on pets in my care and ensure they receive plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I will always follow your instructions carefully to help them feel settled, happy and secure while you're away. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind that your pet is being well looked after.
About: I have taken care of cats since the day I was born and have long loved dogs too, helping my dog parent friends since I was a small child too. I am passionate about animal welfare and beyond that, their happiness and fulfillment! I am currently working odd jobs and helping my family at home and therefore have more than enough time to help you with your furry friends! Your rules are my rules, and I take them very seriously. You can trust me to keep and eye on your pets if they are allowed to be let out into the garden, to make sure that they never do. I also promise to keep them entertained and interacted with, and all their needs fulfilled.
“Devon was absolutely brilliant with Kuda. He was reliable, calm, and clearly confident with dogs, which put me at ease straight away. Kuda was well cared for, happy, and relaxed during the visits, and communication throughout was great. I really appreciated the updates and the care shown — it’s clear Devon genuinely loves what he does. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.”
About: I set myself apart by offering not only reliable pet care, but also tailored attention based on each pet’s unique needs. With hands-on experience in both puppy training and senior care, I’m able to provide: Puppy support: basic training, leash manners, and positive reinforcement. Senior care: gentle walks, medication reminders, and comfort for aging pets. Personalized activity: matching your pet’s energy level with playtime, exercise, or calm companionship. Consistent communication: daily updates with photos/videos for your peace of mind. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. My schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to accommodate daily or weekly pet care at times that suit your pet’s routine. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week, as well as weekends. Whether it’s structured puppy training sessions, regular walks, or consistent feeding times, I’ll ensure your pet’s schedule stays balanced and stress-free. 🐾 Caring for Pets in My Home When pets stay with me, they’re treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, cozy environment with plenty of playtime, walks (for dogs), and cuddles. I make sure feeding, bathroom breaks, and exercise all follow their normal routine, so they feel comfortable and at ease. I also keep spaces clean and pet-friendly, with lots of love and attention. 🐾 Caring for Pets in an Owner’s Home In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s daily routine exactly as you set it. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning (for cats), walks (for dogs), and any special instructions such as medications or training reinforcement. I make sure your pet feels secure in their own environment while also keeping your home tidy and cared for during my visits.
“First time using Donna and she’s been brilliant. She fed the cats messaging us before giving them extra food as one was extra greedy eating the others. She also changed the litter, would recommend!”
“I can throughly recommend Yeru for looking after your pet. She came and spent an hour of her own time, to meet Mopsy (he doesn’t like strangers) and see if they would get along. He loved her as soon as they met, so I knew he would be okay. I went through everything Yeru needed to know about his care, and felt confident she would be okay with him. She did everything I asked of her, was clean and tidy and respectful of my property. On many days, she also spent longer with him then the 30 minutes that Rover allowed, I can only guess they were having fun together, and lost track of time. From the video and pictures she sent me on a twice daily basis, I could see my dog was happy and well. She’s polite and punctual and a really nice person, and I really hope she will be available the next time I need a pet sitter.”

About: I have just qualified as a vet, and am having some time off over summer, and I’m looking for some animal company over this time! I have grown up around animals and always had a passion for pet care. My time on the vet course has given me experience looking after a large range of breeds from the very small to very big. It has also given me plenty of experience with medical care for animals, and I may be able to accommodate to pets with more complex medical needs. I have also have experience taking care of puppies, including orphaned new borns, and of senior dogs. Please feel free to message me with any more specialist needs your pet may have :) I enjoy walking and spending time outdoor and it would be lovely to have a furry friend to come with me. I have an elderly pet dog at home who likes her own space, so will only be doing housesitting, drop ins and walks. Currently having a break after finishing vet school. Have some plans in summer which I would love to care for pets in between, so may be able to accommodate longer stays as well as short. Happy to meet prior to stays, to ensure I get on well with pets! I will stay with pets as much as is required for them and ensure lots of photos are taken to keep you updated on long stays.

Flat with a balcony looking onto a green line where I can easily take your dog for a stroll or toilet break in less than a minute. Flat has closed doors to each room so can adapt pet access to needs
About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up my family would foster rescue dogs, so we often had dogs live with us with complex behavioural and medical needs. My entire adult life I have owned my own pets and have regularly cared for those of my friends and family. I work from home with flexible hours, so will always be around for your pet. They will never be left alone during their stay here. I also take all visiting dogs out with me, such as visiting family or for dinner, so they will get plenty of socialising during their stay. I currently work flexibly from home, so I can meet a dogs needs quite easily and be very adaptable in the care I am able to provide. I have a fenced garden and are right next to the river for plenty of walking. If your dog sleeps upstairs with you, I will replicate this during their stay with me so they feel as comfortable as possible.
About: I have 14 years of experience caring for a Poodle, whom I raised from a puppy until he sadly passed away due to old age. I hope to extend the love I had for him to other dogs and cats. I have extensive experience in caring for young dogs, along with endless love and patience I work from home, which gives me great flexibility throughout the day, allowing me to provide high-standard boarding for dogs and cats in a comfortable home environment. When caring for pets, whether in my home or theirs, I focus on: Safety: I ensure the environment is secure and free from hazards, closely monitoring the pets to keep them safe. Trust: I build a bond with the pets by understanding their needs and preferences, and maintain clear communication with their owners. Environment: I provide a clean, comfortable space with access to play and rest, either by adapting my home or maintaining their familiar surroundings.
About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting for 3 years now, on top of that I have always had pets and taken pride in looking after and training them :) I have a fairly open schedule, I am able to fit bookings around my studies. Send me a message about what you need and I will respond as quick as I can :) I am unfortunately unable to care for your pet in my own home due to the size, however I am able to pet sit in your home, I am trust worthy and can follow specific instructions on how to care for your pet
About: I have over 15 years of personal experience caring for cats, from growing up with my family’s 12-year-old senior cat to co-owning a cat for 4 years. I truly understand feline behavior, boundaries, and how to make them feel safe. I've even successfully trained cats to walk on a leash and play treat-guessing games! I am a regular, trusted cat sitter for my friends' pets, and I recently completed a wonderful month-long boarding stay for a cat at my place. I live on my own in a large, quiet house with a big garden, making it a peaceful, stress-free environment for your pets. I have a lot of love to give and plenty of free time right now to focus entirely on your furry friends, whether they stay at my home or I visit yours. While cats are my specialty, I am also very open to hosting or visiting calm, friendly dogs to expand my care experience! I work completely from home, which means my schedule is highly flexible and I am around all day. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods. My daily routine revolves around providing consistent companionship, sticking strictly to your feeding and medication schedules, and building in plenty of dedicated time for play, grooming, and mental stimulation (or leash walks if they are trained for it!). Because I have a lot of free time right now, your pet will truly be my top priority. In My Home: I live alone in a large, quiet house with a big, secure garden, offering a peaceful environment free from the stress of children or other resident pets. Before any stay, I meticulously pet-proof the space. Your pet will have full freedom to roam, explore, and find their favorite cozy spots. I am extremely mindful of open doors and windows to ensure absolute safety. In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and secure. During drop-in visits, I focus entirely on making your pet feel safe and loved while you are away. Communication: Trust is everything to me. I will send you daily updates, photos, and videos so you can see exactly how much fun and love your furry friend is getting!

I would recommend Rebecca to anyone with hesitation. Rebecca has been coming to look after our cat for years now and I know that our cat is in the best hands. Rebecca is reliable, nothing is too much trouble, she sends great pictures for us to see our cat is happy in her care. First class care. L Scollick
Youngkyung has looked after our cat Ava three times now, once at her flat and twice as drop in visits at our house. Ava adores her and was totally relaxed at her place, and seems to love the fuss she gets during drop in visits. She’s well looked after and we get loads of photos and updates. Ava will absolutely be being looked after by Youngkyung again :)
Ada and her daughter did a fantastic job looking after our cat Rocco. Everyday we recieved photo and video updates from her. It completely put our mind at ease while we were away knowing that Rocco was so well cared for and having a wonderful time receiving lots of fuss and playtime. I wouldn't hesitate to contact Ada again for my next trip and highly recommend her to others.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rushcliffe on Rover is £13.8 per Visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 703 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Rushcliffe. About 90% of Rushcliffe sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
